Chapter 73 1. Machinations

Many people visited Li Weimin's house. Wang Yuanzhang, Jia Chaoxuan and Deng Dahai were all sitting on the sofa.Wu Mengling sat on the edge of the bed, and a portrait of Li Weimin hung on the wall. Wang Yuanzhang said sadly, "I'm sorry, Mengling, I, the squad leader, didn't take good care of Weimin." Wu Mengling wiped her tears and said: "It will be a matter of time before Weimin has such a day. He is too serious and works too hard. Two years ago, the commercial city caught fire. He just finished appendicitis surgery, and the stitches have not been removed. He heard that the fire Yes, he clutched his stomach and went to direct the firefighting. If he had rested in Huang County for a night to fight the flood this time, he wouldn’t be able to..." He sobbed.

Jia Chaoxuan said guiltily, "It's all my fault that I got down from the embankment late, otherwise this wouldn't have happened, alas!" Deng Dahai said sadly: "Sister-in-law, you are a good comrade for the people, you have to hold on!" Wu Mengling shook her head and said, "Secretary Wang, Chaoxuan and Dahai, go ahead, I can hold on." In the morning, to commemorate Comrade Li Weimin, the Municipal Party Committee held an enlarged meeting of the Standing Committee, attended by Wang Yuanzhang, Zhao Guoguang, Xiao Honglin, Zhang Hongchang, Jia Chaoxuan, Yuan Xifan, Deng Dahai and others.

Wang Yuanzhang said emotionally: "Comrades, Comrade Weimin has left us. In the past few days, I often think of what he said, 'Only at the most grassroots level can you understand the most real situation.' "Everything comes first for the people", "Not only can you be innocent for a while, but you can also be innocent for the rest of your life." "Being an official first is a man", the people here refer to us Communists. People and self-discipline are examples for us to learn. The provincial party committee has decided to set off an upsurge of learning from Comrade Li Weimin. We must use Comrade Li Weimin as an example to be a model of diligent study and good thinking, to emancipate our minds and keep pace with the times. A model, a model of being brave in practice and forging ahead. Truly be strict with self-discipline, take the lead in setting an example, establish the party for the public, govern for the people, exercise power for the people, care for the people, and seek for the people. Today's In the expanded meeting of the Standing Committee, let’s all talk about the gap between ourselves and Comrade Weimin.”

Li Weimin's sacrifice greatly shocked the people of Dongzhou, and all the people felt sad and regretful for the loss of a good secretary.However, Xiao Honglin didn't seem to take it seriously, because in his mind, there was something more important that made him furious, that is, Chen Fuzhong had the audacity to threaten his son and his lover. Who really owned the world in Dongzhou? After Deng Dahai and Shi Cunshan reported to Xiao Honglin's office, Xiao Honglin's nose was so angry that he scolded Ding Nengtong for not reporting such an important matter to him, and shouted at Zheng Weiguo: "Let Ding Nengtong come to my office."

"Dahai, Beidu Group used intimidation and threats during the bidding process of the Flower Expo to coerce more than a dozen companies to withdraw from the bidding. It is obviously a criminal organization with a mafia nature. That Chen Fuzhong dared to force the gun on my son. How rampant it is, in Dongzhou, the mayor's son doesn't even feel safe, how can ordinary people talk about security?" Xiao Honglin asked angrily. "Honglin, you are right in your criticism. It is because I did not do a good job and did not do enough to fight against the evil forces. In fact, we have already targeted Chen Fuzhong, the chairman of Beidu Group, but..." Deng Dahai felt guilty. Say.

"It's just what? It's just that they have backers and umbrellas behind them, right?" Xiao Honglin said with a dark face. Behind the criminal group, there is a network of relationships that has infiltrated the party and government departments or law enforcement agencies, and there are some corrupt elements who act as umbrellas. "Honglin, it's because I, the deputy mayor in charge, haven't kept up with it," said Deng Dahai. There has been pressure from all sides to intervene in the handling of the case. In recent years, the Beidu Group has secretly concealed guns, ammunition and controlled knives. Director Liu Kexin died at the hands of Chen Fuzhong's thugs, and the methods were extremely cruel."

"It seems that the crackdown on gangsters and evil in Dongzhou City has already been put on the agenda. The sea, I hope the Municipal Public Security Bureau will strike hard and return the people of Dongzhou City to a blue sky!" Xiao Honglin said firmly. "Mayor Xiao, there is still a certain degree of difficulty!" Shi Cunshan interjected. "What difficulty?" Xiao Honglin asked seriously. "Chen Fuzhong is a representative of the Municipal People's Congress. The arrest must have the support of the Municipal People's Congress." Deng Dahai added.

"Let's take a two-pronged approach and report to the National People's Congress as soon as possible. As long as the facts of the criminal's crime are clear, the National People's Congress will support it. Then I will communicate with the director of the National People's Congress Zhao Guoguang." Xiao Honglin said in an orderly tone. After Deng Dahai and Shi Cunshan achieved their goal, they stood up and said goodbye. As soon as they left, Ding Nengtong rushed over panting. He came from the field of the textile factory.Ding Nengtong made a special trip to find Xin Zejin's brother-in-law. Because of Qian Xueli's extortion of bribes, it is not enough to just listen to Luo Xiaomei's words. There must be evidence. The purpose of contacting Xin Zejin's brother-in-law is to observe what Luo Xiaomei said There is no moisture.

As soon as Ding Nengtong entered, Xiao Honglin teased him, "Director Ding, have you played chess with Mayor Jia again?" Ding Nengtong had already learned from Zheng Weiguo that Deng Dahai and Shi Cunshan had come over the phone, and he immediately realized that Xiao Honglin must be angry at himself for the fact that Xiao Wei was threatened by Chen Fuzhong, and he was already mentally prepared. "Boss, you're angry with me. I didn't report it because I was afraid that you would get angry. After all, nothing serious happened." Ding Nengtong explained cautiously. "The gun is all on the head, and there is nothing serious? I think you, the director of the Beijing Office, have done your job. Let me ask you, Jia Chaoxuan went to Beijing this time to ask Director Liu of the National Development Bank to urge the loan. Then who did you visit? Where did you go?" Xiao Honglin looked at Ding Nengtong with a dark face and gloomy eyes and asked.

Ding Nengtong knew in his heart that Li Weimin's death had focused Xiao Honglin's target on Jia Chaoxuan again. It seemed that Xiao Honglin and Jia Chaoxuan would finally have a fight. If he didn't tell the truth today, he might not be able to make it through, because Xiao Honglin might not know Jia Chaoxuan's whereabouts after he arrived in Beijing. Ding Nengtong put his heart to one side, thinking, the current situation must tell the truth, not to mention that Xiao Honglin has the kindness to know him, and his affection is no less than that of his father and son.Therefore, Ding Nengtong explained everything he knew about Jia Chaoxuan's activities in Beijing.

"Boss, you asked me to pay attention to Mayor Jia. I have never dared to be negligent, but you know me best. You don't say things that are unreasonable, and you don't do things that are not sure. You treat me well. How can I live up to it? What about you?" Ding Nengtong spoke emotionally and rationally, and Xiao Honglin's anger naturally dissipated more than half. "It works. I don't blame you. Although you have been with me for many years, you are young after all. I am afraid that you will be used by others. In officialdom, you have me and you. Lose, the Xiamen Yuanhua case is the best example!" "Boss, I was brought out by you. I don't forget the well digger when I drink water. I can tell who is close to whom." "With your words, I feel relieved. I can get as close as I can with Jia. Don't forget, knowing the enemy and knowing yourself is the key to victory in all battles." After Ding Nengtong left, Yuan Xifan walked in with eight-character steps. Since Yuan Xifan's wife died, he seemed to be much more energetic than before, with a ruddy complexion and a refreshed spirit. "Old Yuan, you came just in time. I was just looking for you." Xiao Honglin gave up his hand and asked Yuan Xifan to sit down. "Old Xiao, you said that Li Weimin's death is not worth it. If you don't work hard as his deputy secretary in the municipal party committee, you go here and there to mess around. Originally, he had nothing to do with flood fighting. Life is on the line, or how to put it, it’s better to do your duty,” Yuan Xifan read Sanqi, threw a cigarette to Xiao Honglin, took out a lighter and lit him up, and continued, “The inspection team of the Central Organization Department just assessed After finishing him, if there are no accidents, maybe he will go up this time, it is really not as good as God!" "Xifan, Li Weimin has gone up, what good will it do you? He will not tolerate you blocking his way, nor will we live in peace with us. His character is rebellious. If this kind of person becomes the leader, the following Don't live anymore." Xiao Honglin said viciously. "Honglin, I heard that Jia went to Beijing this time, and Hong Kong again?" Yuan Xifan asked treacherously. "Brother, you are well-informed. Where did the news come from?" Xiao Honglin asked with a frown. "The old money of the Beijing Office is not a fuel-efficient lamp. This kid has a nickname called Cyclops. In fact, he is neither blind nor deaf. He also has the ability to see and hear all directions. He is a useful talent! " Yuan Xifan intended to recommend Qian Xueli, but he actually had ulterior motives, and it really fell into Xiao Honglin's arms. Xiao Honglin originally wanted to use Ding Nengtong to see all directions and listen to all directions. Willing to get involved in right and wrong, this kid left himself and hid in the Beijing Office just for the sake of freedom. Confucianism cannot be taught, so you can't count on it!You, Ding Nengtong, don't even think about it. If Lao Tzu really fails, or is transferred from Dongzhou, you still have good fruit to eat?Wherever you go, people will think that you belong to Xiao Honglin. "Xifan, is this Qian Xueli's character reliable? If he is reliable, call me to chat in my office someday. If he is really useful, I really want to put him to great use." Xiao Honglin said with a knife Glancing at Yuan Xifan, Yuan Xifan was shocked, as if he was suffering from a cold. "Honglin, what is the use of it?" Yuan Xifan asked alertly. "Xifan, you are ranked behind Jia Chaoxuan. You should be in the top spot in terms of resources and abilities." Xiao Honglin said in a seductive tone. "Hong Lin, what do you mean..." Yuan Xifan asked half understanding. "I mean, let Qian Xueli be my eyes and ears, and keep Jia Chaoxuan in my eyes. Isn't he a good gambler? If we have evidence of his gamble, think about what will happen?" Xiao Honglin looked at Yuan Xifan with cold eyes. This was what Yuan Xifan dreamed of. Unexpectedly, Xiao Honglin also hoped that this situation would appear as soon as possible. One chance can't turn the tide, it can also set off big waves!Yuan Xifan conspired silently for a long time, but was so excited that he didn't speak for a long time.
