Chapter 52 General strike of employees
The next day, or after dawn, because he slept too late, the alarm clock rang many times, but he could not wake up Wang Lei. In the end, Wang Hua ran over from the next door and called Wang Lei. He took a look at the time, immediately jumped out of the bed, and rushed into the bathroom at a speed of sprinting for a hundred meters.
This was the first day he worked normally after he performed his post. It seemed that he was going to be late.
Wang Lei squeezed out toothpaste in a hurry, brushed it twice in his mouth, looked up and saw the mirror on the wall, his movements couldn't help but slow down. The mirror clearly reflected the frosted glass door in the bathroom, and Bill Clinton's poster was hung on the door; a few blue and white stripes and red and blue plaid towels were hung on the wall with Roman tiles... There was also a young and handsome Chinese man.
Wang Lei grinned at the mirror, then picked up the cup and rinsed his mouth, finally took half a saliva, looked up at the mirror, and looked at himself inside: "The people established a government. The only purpose of the government's existence is to protect and serve the people. For Braddock, every penny given to the government by taxpayers should not be abused..."
"I know, this will cause trouble for everyone, but it is for Braddock, for the residents of Braddock..."
Wang Lei was holding water in his mouth and spoke vaguely, but his speech was very fast. This was the training speech he summarized by his predecessors' experience. Although he could exchange the aura of simulation training in the presidential book, the badges were of many use, and he was a little reluctant to let it go. Moreover, simulations were simulations after all, and he was more willing to improve his abilities through realistic efforts.
Every morning when he washes, he has to face the mirror and hold water in his mouth, and quickly give a speech, which can also make him full of energy all day.
"No matter what difficulties we encounter, even if everyone opposes them, I will remain firm, because I am very sure that this is beneficial to Braddock and the residents of Braddock..." In the past, Wang Lei had to give a speech in front of the mirror for fifteen minutes. Today's time was tight. He only said five minutes before stopping the speech, quickly wiped his face, put on his clothes, and ran downstairs.
Their breakfast was already prepared on the table in the restaurant, a fried egg sandwich and a bottle of fresh milk. Wang Lei picked it up and left. When he arrived at the roadside, he was stunned. The mailbox was empty and the modified mountain bike that was usually leaning against him was gone.
Where is the car? Wang Lei quickly looked around, trying to find his car.
The car was on his tenth birthday. The birthday gift given to him by his grandfather who was still alive at that time. Because it had special significance, Wang Lei never threw it away. He had his father Wang Jiaming brought him to the factory to repair it with tools, and had several major modifications. Although it was easy to ride, it looked very ugly. He kept throwing it wherever he rode, and no one would ask for it.
He remembered that he threw it next to his mailbox last night, but now he didn't have it and couldn't see it around him.
Wang Lei hurriedly stuffed the sandwich into his mouth, subconsciously opened the email address, and found a note from it, which read: The celebrity of the town, Lord Mayor, if you don’t let us walk, we have to borrow a car from you.
"Bang!"
Wang Lei punched the email address, and the iron shell of the email address came in.
He knew who did it. Although there was no signature on the note, except for the cripple, there was no one else. They threatened themselves through Emily yesterday, and now they came to their door directly, which was simply lawless.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Wang Hua stretched out his head from the window on the second floor and looked down.
Wang Lei waved his hand with his back and said, "It's nothing. I'm going to the town hall. You'll be at home if you have nothing to do. Don't come out."
Wang Lei was holding a stream of evil fire in his chest. He knew it was a cripple, but he couldn't do anything to them. If it were the past, he would have challenged Udunis alone, but now he is the mayor, and he cannot do this; he has to use legitimate means, and that needs evidence.
Damn lame, you guys wait, I won't let you go! Wang Lei was ruthless in his heart. Without a bicycle, he could only run more than a mile to the town hall.
When he arrived at the town hall, he had already passed his work time and was caught by the reporter waiting there.
"Rex, you seem to be late. Are you in trouble?"
"Oh, no, it's just a little delay." Wang Lei said with a smile, skillfully dealing with the reporter in front of him. He looked up at the other people who were rushing over. It seemed that there were quite a lot, not less than yesterday, which made him feel a little strange.
"Is that right? I thought there was something wrong. There seemed to be very few people coming to work in the town hall today."
"Uh!" Wang Lei paused slightly, and he suddenly felt something was wrong.
"Rex, we just got the news that the Braddock government employees have decided to strike. They protested your agency's streamlining plan. Do you have anything to say?" asked the reporter who caught up with him.
"What? Strike?" Wang Lei was shocked when he suddenly heard the news. When he visited various departments yesterday, everyone's performance was quite cooperative. He felt that his differentiation strategy was very successful. There were examples from the Reconstruction Bureau, the Public Utilities Administration, and the Administrative Affairs Administration. Government employees should have their own ideas and it is difficult to form a unified alliance.
Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened, and they immediately slapped him loudly.
"I'm sorry, I don't know about this yet. Please let me go. After I understand, I will tell you any news." Wang Lei anxiously separated the reporter and walked into the town hall quickly. The closest to the entrance was the Administrative Affairs Administration Bureau. He pushed open the door and there was no one inside.
Yes, no one, not one.
Opposite is the office of the Public Safety Administration. The door is closed. Through the glass on the door, you can see that the light inside is very dark. Wang Lei walked over and grabbed the door handle. It was locked tightly and could not open the door. There was no sound inside and no one was there.
There is the Elderly Bureau in front of it, and there is no one.
There is still no one in the Finance and Budget Implementation Office.
The Education Council, the Disability Council, the Health and Human Services Bureau... went over one office after another, with the doors closed and no one. They went on strike, all of them went on strike.
Wang Lei's face looked ugly, and the evil fire on his chest was getting stronger and stronger, making him feel difficult to breathe, and the world in front of him seemed to be shaking.
Damn it.
The door of the Public Utilities Administration was open, but there was no one inside. Did Donna go on strike? She didn't even tell herself about this? Wang Lei felt betrayed. He withdrew from the Public Utilities Administration and stopped looking at other offices, and strode towards his own mayor's office.
"Rex, you're finally here, I'm going to find you!"
At the door of his office, Wang Lei almost bumped into the person who came out inside.
"Thank God, I finally saw someone!" Wang Lei looked at Donna and Belinda Brooks of the Administration Bureau, and finally put a big stone in his heart. Not everyone abandoned him.
His mood suddenly improved, and he walked up to hug them separately: "Donna, Belinda, thank you, I'm here now, don't worry, tell me what's going on now."
"It's awful. All the departments, including the police station, fire station, didn't go to work on time." Donna said hurriedly, and she returned to the office with Belinda and Wang Lei.
"**!" Wang Lei's mood suddenly became extremely bad again. The police station also went on strike. What were they doing? Is it completely disregarding the welfare of the residents of the town? No wonder the cripple dared to openly steal the mayor's special car. He even suspected that they had colluded long ago, otherwise how could it be so coincidental?
"Rex, I'm sorry, I just called my people. They said it was a strike organized by the Employees' Union and they couldn't ignore the arrangements." Belinda explained with an ugly face.
"I know, it has nothing to do with you." Wang Lei pinched his nose. He was a little bit over the top of his head. He didn't expect that the employee union would be so powerful. Of course, it is not ruled out that everyone resisted his plan from the bottom of his heart. After all, they were used to being idle before, and compared to reforms with unknown prospects, they were more willing to maintain the status quo.
"So, what are you good ideas?" Wang Lei looked up at Donna and Belinda. They are also government employees, but the directors of the Administration and Public Utilities Bureau were appointed by the mayors, and they are also government officials. They are not involved with the employee union.
Wang Lei really hopes to get their opinions and help, after all, they have more experience.
