Chapter 539: The Organization Department’s interference!



Chapter 539: The Organization Department’s interference!

Morning.

Liu Xiang South Hu Tong.

The residents in the Hu Tong went silent for a few seconds after Dong Xuebing shouted into the loudhailer.

Dong Xuebing had made it too serious. He will be going after everyone and will charge them.

Peng Gang, Yu Rongfeng, and the rest looked at Dong Xuebing. They were impressed. He had shouted this at the right time and scared them. Although it is impossible to arrest and charge everyone, it had scared them.

“Are they going to arrest us?”

“Sentencing?!”

“They are scaring us! The law will not punish the majority!”

Although the store owners are still angry and agitated, their tone had gotten softer.

Dong Xuebing had worked in Public Security and had interacted with grassroots people countless times. He knows how to intimidate them with words.

Xue Gui immediately replied with a smirk. “Don’t listen to him! How can they sentence us because of this? I know the law! Don’t worry!”

A hooligan added. “That’s right. We must not allow them to tear down our stores!”

“Chase them out!”

Xue Gui and his hooligans continued to incite the crowd, but they are losing support.

Dong Xuebing stared at Xue Gui at a distance. As a family member of a Government Staff, he should be setting an example and not inciting the crowd to go against them!

Dong Xuebing put down the loudhailer and said to Wang Yuling. “Director Wang! Record down whatever they say and do from now onwards! I want everything to be recorded and submitted to the District Public Security Bureau this afternoon for them to take action!” He is just making a threat as it’s impossible to arrest so many people.

“Yes!” Wang Yuling took out a notebook and looked at the store owners.

Dong Xuebing picks up the loudhailer again. “That’s all I have to say! We can negotiate if you all are willing to cooperate with us now! If anyone dares to stop us from our duties, I will arrest him!”

The crowd went quiet again.

Dong Xuebing waved his arm. “Demolish those buildings!”

One of the staff from the Urban Management Enforcement Team got into the bulldozer and started the engine.

“Are they going to demolish?”

“Don’t be scare! They will not dare to demolish!”

“But…”

Other than Xue Gui and a few strong-headed owners standing in front, the rest are frightened. The Subdistrict Office seems to be determined to demolish their stores today. They might be arrested and charged if they resist, and they stepped backward away from the bulldozer.

Alright!

Zhou Yanru, Peng Gang, and the rest from the Subdistrict Office are relieved. They only need to persuade most owners to move, and the rest cannot stop them.

These illegal buildings, which had disrupted the lives of surrounding residents for years, will be torn down.

The onlookers started cheering and clapping.

Dong Xuebing is satisfied with this outcome, as this will be a political achievement for him.

But as the Urban Enforcement Team are about to demolish the buildings, a District Committee Organization Department black sedan car stopped in front of Dong Xuebing. A man in his mid-thirties descended from it.

The rest of the Subdistrict Office Leaders are stunned.

Zhou Yanru rushed over to Dong Xuebing and whispered. “He is Peng Kun, the Second Deputy Chief of the District Organization Department. He is very close with Chief Xue.”

Peng Kun?

Dong Xuebing had heard of Peng Kun. He was the one who answered his call to the Organization Department yesterday. Dong Xuebing was still wondering why another Organization Department Leader had answered the call when he called Xue Qingrong’s office. Now to think about it, Xue Qingrong might be in his office but got Peng Kun to answer the call for him.

Dong Xuebing looks at Peng Kun. “Chief Peng? Why are you here?”

Peng Kun smiles. “I just happened to pass by this area. Are you all going to demolish the illegal buildings?”

Dong Xuebing nodded. Pass by this area? How can it be a coincidence?

Needless to ask, everyone can tell what is going on. Peng Kun had appeared here at this time as an indication of Xue Qingrong’s intention. Of course, this might be Peng Kun’s own decision, but the smile on Xue Gui’s face tells another story. He seems to know Peng Kun will appear to stop Dong Xuebing.

This is to show his support for Xue Gui?!

The faces of Yu Rongfeng, Guo Mingfeng, and the rest changed. They did not expect Xue Qingrong will send a representative to protect his nephew!

They are not showing any respect for the Subdistrict Office.

Dong Xuebing held the same rank as Peng Kun. If Xue Qingrong had come personally, Dong Xuebing might still give in to him. He will not give in to someone like Peng Kun. “It’s dangerous here. Let’s all take a few steps back. Chief Peng, you should watch out for the debris.” He is determined to demolish these buildings at all costs today.

Dong Xuebing waved to the bulldozer. “Demolish!”

Peng Kun frowned. “Wait!”

Everyone’s face changed. What is this?! Are you trying to order us around?!

Dong Xuebing pulled a long face. “Chief Peng, what are you trying to do?!”

“There are still so many residents opposing. Accidents might happen if you all tear down those buildings by force.” Peng Kun points towards Xue Gui and his men. “Look!”

Xue Gui and a few store owners started protesting at this moment.

“You all got to step over my body if you all are going to demolish it!”

“I dare you all to demolish!”

They are acting out what Peng Kun had said.

But it’s only a handful of them, as the rest were frightened by what Dong Xuebing said.

Dong Xuebing almost exploded when he heard this. “Chief Peng, the District had ordered us to remove all illegally built buildings. Why are you, as a Leader from the Organization Department, going against the District Government?”

Everyone knows Peng Kun’s backing is Xue Qingrong, and he thought Guang Ming Subdistrict would listen to him. He frowned as he saw Dong Xuebing’s attitude. “When did I go against the District Government’s orders? We must remove the illegal buildings, but we have to take note of the way we execute the orders!”

Dong Xuebing sneered. “Why are you interfering in this eviction and demolition of illegal buildings? This is the job of the Subdistrict Office, and I know what to do. I don’t need someone from the Organization Department to direct us.”

Zhou Yanru is on Dong Xuebing’s side since he took over as the Director and is not afraid of offending others. “The Organization Department is crossing the line now.”

Peng Gang, Yu Rongfeng, and the rest are also staring at Peng Kun. 

You all interfered and freed Xue Gui when we arrested him! This had already interrupted our plans, and Xue Gui still sent his men to create trouble at the Subdistrict Office. Even the District Mayor is aware of this and reprimanded us! Fine. Now, we are going to demolish the illegal buildings, and you all are stopping us again! Do you think you all can stop us by sending one person over?! What is the Organization Department trying to do?! This is too much!

Deputy Chief Peng Kun got mad because of their attitude. The Organization Department is managing the training and attitudes of the staff, and he felt he has the right to voice his opinions. “I am not interfering in the Subdistrict Office’s work. I am telling you all to be careful, or accidents will happen. Didn’t you all learn from previous incidents? Can’t you all see those residents are opposing the demolition? You all will clash with them if you demolish the buildings by force. You need to be responsible for the residents and their actions. You all should speak to them nicely first!”

The Subdistrict Office staff felt disgusted by what Peng Kun said.

Your Leader’s family member is the one inciting the rest to go against us, and you two are a two-man act. How dare you try to teach us what to do?!

Dong Xuebing is furious. “We had spoken to them, and we don’t need you to order us around! Demolish!”

Peng Kun could not hold back his anger and pointed at Dong Xuebing. “Fine… I will report you all to the District! I shall see how you are going to face the responsibility if you all clash with the residents!”

Peng Kun has never asked them to stop the demolition. Even if he wants to speak up for Xue Hui, he will not let others get a hold of him. That’s why he is wary of the words he used and warned the Subdistrict Office not to clash with the residents.

But his words did not remind Dong Xuebing and the rest. Instead, it reminded those illegal business owners!

“The Subdistrict Office will also be held responsible?!”

“So, they are afraid of clashing with us!”

“They are scaring us earlier! They are also afraid of any clashes!”

Peng Kun’s words reminded those owners who had dropped their weapons. All of them picked up their weapons and started protesting again!

“Did you all hear that? The Subdistrict Office dares not to do anything to us!”

“They might lose their jobs if they touch us!”

“Chase them out! They will not demolish our stores if they are out!”

“That’s right! The law will not punish the masses! Don’t be scare of them!”

Everyone becomes bolder after they heard what Peng Kun said. If the Subdistrict Office doesn’t dare to clash with them, what’s there to scare off?!
