Nie Zhenbang was no fool. At this point, his words and actions were skillful. He did not directly turn his attack on Yao Yude because that would harden the situation, leaving no room for tactfulness.
Now, targeting Huang Jingwu, the director of the civil affairs department. Yao Yude, surely, would not be a fool either. He could naturally see it and if he was smart, he would seize this opportunity to back down.
On the side, all members of the Standing Committee and the disaster relief work group from the Ministry of Civil Affairs were staring in amazement. The young mayor of Wanghai city had guts indeed.
Huang Jingwu's face had turned somewhat ashen at that moment. He was clear about the implications of Nie Zhenbang's words - he was satirizing him for not coming to provide disaster relief, but to freeload instead.
