Chapter 47 Section 47

I don't know if it was a coincidence or intentional, but during the tense trial of the "August 13" fire case, Wang Changgong rushed to Changshan to conduct research.They stayed for five days, accompanied by Lin Yongqiang and Huang Guoxiu, went to several bankrupt coal mines in the south, and gave public speeches.The provincial newspaper published the news prominently on the front page, and the city's media made key reports. Jiang Zhengliu didn't know in advance that Wang Changgong was coming, he only found out after reading the report by accident.After knowing it, I felt something was wrong: In the past, Wang Changgong always greeted him when he came to Changshan. What happened this time?After much deliberation, I felt uneasy, hesitated again and again, and finally rushed to visit Wang Changgong on the night when he was about to leave.

Wang Changgong lives in the Changshan Hotel.When Jiang Zhengliu arrived, Wang Changgong in pajamas was talking to Lin Yongqiang and Huang Guoxiu in the reception room of the hotel suite.This member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Executive Vice Governor, who had fallen into a passive state, was still happily talking and laughing with Lin Yongqiang and Huang Guoxiu as if he didn't know that his lover Zhou Xiuli was standing in the dock for trial.Seeing his arrival, Wang Changgong was also very enthusiastic, took his hand and said, "Zhengliu, why did you come here too? There are so many rumors in the society now, you, the chief of the public security bureau, dare to come to see me? Huh? "

With a smile on his face, Jiang Zhengliu answered the wrong question: "Old leader, you are right to criticize me, I am late!" Then he explained, "Governor Wang, you see this is a big deal. I only found out about your visit after reading the newspapers." It's a long mountain..." Wang Changgong didn't seem to hear it, and after letting him sit down, he continued to talk about work with Lin Yongqiang and Huang Guoxiu: "...it's difficult in your city, but it's difficult in our province, but it's even more difficult for workers in bankrupt mines! You don't know if you don't see it, but it's scary after seeing it." It's a jump, it's shocking! Comrade Guoxiu, I just found out today that it's not easy for you to be the secretary in charge of bankruptcy!"

Huang Guoxiu said: "Governor Wang, it's good that you know, you have to make up your mind and find a way!" Wang Changgong followed his own train of thought and said to himself: "Of course we have to find a way! The province has to think of a way, and the city has to think of a way too! Is there a good way to solve the problem fundamentally? It's not that there is no way, I think It should be solved in the course of development, development is the last word!" The topic then changed, "Has Changshan developed in recent years? I think it has developed! It is a fact that it owes some debts, and development is also a fact! Isn't it true? Ah, Comrade Yongqiang?"

Lin Yongqiang hurriedly said: "Yes, yes. Governor Wang, the achievements of Changshan's reform and opening up are obvious to all!" Wang Changgong smiled: "Comrade Yongqiang, don't flatter me, what is there for all to see? As soon as the 'August 13' fire broke out, there were more discussions about me and the previous team. It seems that I, Wang Changgong, have been mayor for five years. Just set up a shameless fox, and set up an unprofitable airport! Such a beautiful new Changshan, some people just can't see it!" Lin Yongqiang was sincere and said with emotion: "These comrades, alas, one-sided, too one-sided..."

Wang Changgong waved his hand, and continued: "Speaking of today's Xinchangshan, there is one comrade that cannot be forgotten, and that is Zhou Xiuli! Although Zhou Xiuli was confused for a while, she took 300,000 yuan from Su Afu, accepted bribes, and dereliction of duty. , now standing in the dock of the court, but I still have to say that this lesbian is not simple. Comrade Chen Hanjie used this lesbian well! This lesbian has made a major contribution to today's new Changshan of!" Hearing this, Jiang Zhengliu was startled: at such a time, Huang Guoxiu was in front of him again, why did Wang Changgong still say that?Ye Zijing is Huang Guoxiu's wife, aren't you afraid that Huang Guoxiu will spread this word to Ye Zijing's ears?

Sure enough, as soon as Wang Changgong finished speaking, Huang Guoxiu picked it up, and said bluntly: "Governor Wang, Zhou Xiuli has contributed a lot in the past, but this time the disaster is big enough, and the consequences are too serious." It's..." Wang Changgong said earnestly: "So, we must learn the lesson seriously and be determined in the face of the temptation of money!" Jiang Zhengliu interrupted at the right time: "On this point, we all have to learn from Governor Wang! Last year, when Governor Wang's daughter got married, many comrades went to give gifts, but Governor Wang insisted on not keeping a cent, and donated it all to Kawaguchi Hope Primary School. Already!"

Wang Changgong seemed displeased, and glanced at Jiang Zhengliu: "This kind of thing is glorious, what are you talking about? Comrade Zhengliu, you have thousands of dollars in the money!" He said to Lin Yongqiang and Huang Guoxiu, " When I went to Chuankou to inspect the Hope Primary School, I told Wang Yongcheng, Secretary of the Chuankou County Party Committee, that under market economy conditions, the power in your hands may become a commodity. What happened to Zhou Xiuli proved this point again! So, I introduced three pieces of experience: first rejection, second rebate, third donation, the practice results have proved that there are still some effects..."

Huang Guoxiu is very good at stitching needles: "Governor Wang, it would be great if the money would be donated to our needy workers' families!" Wang Changgong pointed to Huang Guoxiu, and said with a chuckle: "Comrade Guoxiu, you are really a debt collector! You will never forget to ask me to collect debts! Well, let’s get down to business, since I, the executive deputy governor, have come to Changshan , You have to leave some money to buy roads, too much is impossible, let's give you one million as a temporary relief fund first!" Huang Guoxiu was not satisfied: "Governor Wang, is one million less? How much is it per capita?!"

Lin Yongqiang also said: "Yes, Governor Wang, if you can give about five million first, then..." Wang Changgong waved his hands before Lin Yongqiang finished speaking: "Yongqiang, Guoxiu, don't be dissatisfied! This is my greatest authority for approval! You are aware of the tight financial situation in the province, so I can give you an explanation: I The next time I came to Changshan, Governor Liu also said that I should not open my mouth easily. There are more than 200,000 households in our province who should be included in the scope of the subsistence allowance, and there are more than 700,000 people..."

At this point, Wang Changgong's secretary Xiao Duan came in, hesitantly reported: "Governor Wang, a director of the office of the Municipal Urban Management Committee named...Liu Maocai came, and said that...he said he wanted to report something to you. Mile!" Wang Changgong said angrily: "He, a department director, asked me to report the situation? Let him go!" Huang Guoxiu seemed to know something in his heart, and said casually: "Governor Wang, they may be looking for you to show their merits!" Jiang Zhengliu also knew about the court dispute between Liu Maocai and some comrades from the Urban Management Committee, and he thought that maybe Liu Maocai was here to show his merits.Liu Maocai was Zhou Xiuli's old office director, and he knew about the historical relationship between Zhou Xiuli and Wang Changgong. This commotion was most likely for Wang Changgong to watch, and it could be understood as a kind of political gamble. Wang Changgong seemed confused, and asked Huang Guoxiu: "What do you mean? What kind of merit does this director ask me to show?" Huang Guoxiu said: "Governor Wang, this director has made quite a fuss in court because of Zhou Xiuli's matter!" Wang Changgong's face was pulled down: "Comrade Guoxiu, do you mean that I support this office director to go to the court to mess around? Is my level really low to this level?!" Looking at Huang Guoxiu, he looked at Huang Guoxiu again. Looking at Lin Yongqiang, he said coldly, "Fortunately, Mayor Xiaolin is here today, otherwise, I really can't tell!" Lin Yongqiang hurriedly stood up to smooth things over: "Governor Wang, you...you misunderstood, I think Comrade Guoxiu didn't mean that, and... it was just a joke! Really, Liu Maocai is in court, how can you support it? Impossible! Besides, we have also carefully investigated this matter according to the requirements of Comrade Chaoyang and the municipal party committee a few days ago, and there is really no one organizing it, it is completely spontaneous! Governor Wang, we... let's talk about the one hundred Ten thousand..." Huang Guoxiu seemed to have noticed her abruptness: "Yes, yes, and... let's talk about money!" Wang Changgong's anger still persisted: "Comrade Guoxiu, please rest assured that you and Comrade Yongqiang, I agreed to the one million yuan, and it will be indispensable. However, I still have to say what I have to say: since Zhou Xiuli has accepted 300,000 yuan from Su Afu, The evidence for accepting bribes is convincing, so there is nothing to say about how to be sentenced, and it is useless for anyone to make a fuss! However, I also advise certain comrades to make less fuss about me and Comrade Chen Hanjie, let alone take the opportunity to engage in internal strife between gangs. This is not good!" Wang Changgong, who was passive, was still so majestic, Huang Guoxiu and Lin Yongqiang didn't dare to make a sound. Only then did Wang Changgong calm down, and said to Lin Yongqiang with a sullen face: "Comrade Yongqiang, no one organizes, no one manipulates, but there are so many people speaking up for Zhou Xiuli in court. What's the problem? It's not worth thinking about." Is it? At least it shows that Zhou Xiuli has done a lot of good things, you and Comrade Chaoyang must know it well!" Huang Guoxiu seemed to want to argue again, but was stopped by Lin Yongqiang's fleeting wink. Lin Yongqiang replied with a smile on his face: "Yes, yes. Governor Wang, we know it, we know it!" Unexpectedly, Wang Changgong said again: "Yongqiang, you and Comrade Chaoyang don't misunderstand me. This Zhou Xiuli must be punished according to the law. She should be sentenced to a few years. You should sum up this case well and educate the cadres!" Lin Yongqiang responded again and again, and forced Huang Guoxiu to leave. Huang Guoxiu took two steps, turned around at the door of the living room, and said to Wang Changgong: "Governor Wang, don't get me wrong, I know you won't support Liu Maocai to sue the court, but in fact Liu Maocai and others are looking at you face!" Wang Changgong smiled wryly: "I know this well, so I don't see any comrades like Liu Maocai now, whether in the provincial capital or in Changshan!" After a short pause, he said, "By the way, Comrade Guoxiu, Say hello to Comrade Zijing for me, and say that I want to find an opportunity to apologize to her. In the past, the situation was unclear, and I criticized her by mistake!" After Huang Guoxiu and Lin Yongqiang left, Wang Changgong's face darkened, and he remained silent for a long time. Jiang Zhengliu got closer, quietly sat down on the sofa opposite Wang Changgong, and said cautiously: "Old leader, Zhou Xiuli's case is... going on trial, you...you really shouldn't come to Changshan at this time what!" Wang Changgong looked up at Jiang Zhengliu, "Comrade Zhengliu, do you think I'm here for Zhou Xiuli?" Jiang Zhengliu forced a smile and said, "It's not that I thought Comrades Huang Guoxiu and Lin Yongqiang would think so!" Wang Changgong slammed the teacup on the tea table hard, causing the ashtray on the tea table to jump up: "If they think so, they are wrong, they are wrong! I came to Changshan this time, not for Zhou Xiuli , came for the tens of thousands of needy employees of Changshan Mining Group! It came on behalf of the provincial party committee and the provincial government! Comrade Pei Jun said: the social security problem of the vulnerable groups must be resolved as soon as possible, this cannot be vague! The common people want to eat , to fill the stomach, this is a big thing, a party that represents the fundamental interests of the broadest masses of the people cannot ignore the lives of the people!" Jiang Zhengliu had no choice but to obey Wang Changgong: knowing that Zhou Xiuli's case was under trial, and knowing that the investigation team of the Provincial Party Committee was investigating the problems of their previous team, the old leader Wang Changgong not only came, but also came confidently, and even said the official words on the scene So reasonable, so emotional! What made Jiang Zhengliu even more unexpected was that Wang Changgong criticized him again, knocking on the coffee table with his knuckles, and said in an extremely harsh tone, "And you, Comrade Zhengliu? How did you do it? The difficulties of the provincial party committee and the provincial government, You are not ignorant of the difficulties of the municipal party committee and the municipal government, and the difficulties of tens of thousands of unemployed miners in the southern coalfield of Changshan Mining Group! But what have you done? You and your brother-in-law Wang Xiaofeng are very greedy, and you got into trouble with Su Afu Let’s go together! Without paying a penny, you dragged all the high-end decoration materials worth more than 100,000 yuan home, and decorated your house like a hotel! Where is the party spirit of you comrade? Where is your conscience? Where is the humanity? Do you still have conscience and humanity? Do you still have ordinary people in your heart? Really, the wine and meat of the wealthy family stink, and the road is frozen to death? Ah?!" Jiang Zhengliu couldn't help being hot all over, and a layer of sweat oozes from his forehead: "Old leader, this... I have to explain this: my brother-in-law Wang Xiaofeng did it behind my back, I... I found it after I found out. Comrade Tang Zhaoyang..." Wang Changgong waved his hand: "Don't explain, I know, I know! You took the initiative to confess to Comrade Chaoyang and the municipal party committee. So, after Su Afu handed over the blacklist, you will not be afraid, you are very smart!" Jiang Zhengliu knew in his heart that Wang Changgong's grievance must be related to the killing of Su Afu, so he hurriedly explained: "Old leader, your instructions about... about dealing with Su Afu, I... I failed to implement..." Wang Changgong interrupted Jiang Zhengliu with a wave of his hand: "Wait, wait, Comrade Zhengliu, let me ask you, what instructions did I have on dealing with Su Afu? When did I give you instructions on how to deal with the case? I just want to know Great principle! In my impression, I emphasized one point to Su Afu from beginning to end: this is a key person, this person must be caught, and he must not be allowed to escape or commit suicide. In one sentence: he must live, right?! " Jiang Zhengliu didn't expect Wang Changgong to turn his back on him, and was stunned for a moment: Fortunately, he didn't order Su Afu to be killed at that time.If he really did this, if he didn't take the initiative to explain his problems to Tang Zhaoyang, he would be in serious trouble now.Wang Changgong is not on the blacklist of the 48 people, but he and Wang Xiaofeng are on the list. Even if he has a hundred mouths, he can't tell clearly: everyone will think that he is trying to cover up his financial problems, so he kills people ! Wang Changgong also mentioned this issue, but his tone became more friendly, and he actually had some kind meaning: "Comrade Zhengliu, is Wang Changgong on the list of Su Afu's forty-eight people? Doesn't seem to be there? You are there! Isn't Zhou Xiuli a person?" Shi, are you a good thing? There have been a lot of complaints about you and the Public Security Bureau. I haven’t reminded you! I also said that I will go to your house and see the palace of your house. You hide from me Well, it's just not arranged!" Jiang Zhengliu wiped the cold sweat off his head: "Governor Wang, this... I have to explain..." Wang Changgong stopped him: "Comrade Zhengliu, don't explain anymore. It would be better if you can confess and hand over the stolen goods at the critical moment! But don't have any illusions, don't think that Zhou Xiuli is a criminal, but you are some kind of innocent person." Liu Maocai When they were in the courtroom, they said that there is one missing person in the dock, who is missing? I think the one missing is you, Jiang Zhengliu!" At this point, Secretary Xiao Duan knocked on the door and came in, saying that it was Zhao Peijun, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, who had called. Wang Changgong immediately got up to see off the guests: "Comrade Zhengliu, let's do it this way, we must sum up our experience and learn from it!" Jiang Zheng lingered, and stood up almost subconsciously. Later, he didn't know how he got out of the Changshan Hotel and how he got into the car.At that time, my mind was in a trance, as if I had a very unreal dream. It was only when I was driving all the way home that I realized that it was over for him and Wang Changgong this time, completely over.Because Su Afu was left alive, Zhou Xiuli was taken to the dock. No matter how many years Zhou Xiuli is sentenced this time, Wang Changgong's hatred for him will never be dispelled. Wang Changgong's thoughts. Think about it carefully, but feel wrong: You said that Wang Changgong ordered Su Afu to be killed and silenced, who would believe it?Wang Changgong is not on Su Afu's list of accepting bribes. It is reasonable to infer that there is no need to do so. He said that he wanted to protect Zhou Xiuli and a group of Changshan cadres including Jiang Zhengliu. This report is even more outrageous: your old leader You are the one to protect, but you sold the old leader, what kind of person are you?More importantly, there was no evidence, neither circumstantial evidence nor physical evidence. Wang Changgong also explained today: No one has ever issued such an order! The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became, and I couldn't help but have deep respect for Ye Zijing. This female chief prosecutor is really amazing. Knowing that Zhou Xiuli's backer is Wang Changgong, she insisted on carrying the pressure to bring the case to today.Why can't Ye Zijing think about it: After the "August 13" case is over, she will not be able to survive?He knows this old leader very well. This person always repays kindness and revenge. He is not Wang Changgong's opponent, and I am afraid that Ye Zijing is not an opponent either. The only thing that can bring Wang Changgong down is Wang Changgong's own economic problems.But will Wang Changgong have financial problems?The bribery issue involved so many cadres in Changshan, but none of them involved Wang Changgong.Perhaps it was because of this that Wang Changgong dared to be so confident, not only dared to come to Changshan at this time, but also dared to speak for Zhou Xiuli publicly.In addition, there is another signal worth noting: under such circumstances, Zhao Peijun, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, still maintains very close contact with Wang Changgong, and just now he took the initiative to call the Changshan Hotel.What does Secretary Zhao Peijun want to discuss with Wang Changgong?Is it to talk about the problem of solving the difficulties of employees in difficulty, or the "August 13" major case?It's hard to figure out! I really want to have a good talk with Ye Zijing, to have a heart-to-heart talk, and to tell the truth, so that Ye Zijing can be more wary of Wang Changgong, the leader of the provincial party committee.Comrades like Ye Zijing were really planted in Wang Changgong's hands, it's simply too unreasonable!Thinking about it, I don't know what to say to Ye Zijing?Not to mention what Ye Zijing would think of him?Would Ye Zijing see him as a political villain like Fang Qingming?Fang Qingming's story has now spread all over the city...
