The Longgang County Department Guest House was expanded and decorated into the Longgang Hotel. After the Friendship Hotel added a floor, it was renamed the VIP Building. It is also the dining and entertainment venue of the Longgang Hotel.
Now there are only three people in a private room on the third floor of the VIP Building, Lu Ming, the county's deputy governor Gao Shaoting, and the county court's chief judge Pei Yuankun.
Pei Yuankun is over sixty years old. He has a gray beard and wears a green robe. However, when his triangular eyes occasionally roll over, his gaze becomes a little fierce. It seems that the old man was not a good person when he was young.
Pei Yuankun was invited by Gao Shaoting. Hearing Gao Shaoting introduce Lu Ming as "Boss Lu", he smiled slightly. From his expression, it was obvious that he had heard about the upcoming battle in the county.
"Lao Pei, you may not know that in fact, half of our county now belongs to Boss Lu!" Gao Shaoting smiled slightly.
When the land in this county was changed, Gao Shaoting was in charge of civil affairs and was the final person to handle it.
In fact, all real estate transactions of Zhujiang Industrial were handled personally by Gao Shaoting and his cronies.
Gao Shaoting now attributes all the land purchased by Zhujiang Industrial to Lu Ming. In fact, he is bragging for Boss Lu, but he does not expect that his big words are actually very different from the truth.
However, although Gao Shaoting believes that Zhujiang Industrial is a company jointly funded by many shareholders of Donghai Capital, even if Boss Lu is just managing the economy, nowadays, he also represents the common interests of those big capitals.
Lao Gong left the real estate purchase to him, which was also a way to conquer him.
Gao Shaoting has seniority in Longgang, but he has no chance to be the county magistrate of Liushui. From a certain perspective, he is just a big official in the county and township. There is no one above him, so it is impossible for him to become a county magistrate.
Although the successive county magistrates could not do without him, they were just tools and could only be given some benefits to him.
Lao Gong was the county spokesperson who first hinted that he would help him further his career.
Lu Ming could feel that although Gao Shaoting still seemed to be doing what he should do, impartially assisting the acting governor in doing his job, his heart had already become hot.
Today, taking the initiative to invite Pei Yuankun to meet with him is a signal.
Pei Yuankun is also a local veteran, and he and Gao Shaoting are brothers in need. The two families have a good relationship, and it is said that they are somewhat related.
Although the problems faced by Pei Yuankun and Gao Shaoting are different, they have the same purpose.
In Montenegro, the chiefs of each county are locals, although in accordance with federal law, judges have lifelong tenure.
But ordinary cases are fine, but as long as it involves the close relationship between the officials of the county office or sensitive cases, the basic court is the mouthpiece of the county office and can only judge the case according to the voice of the county office. There is no such thing as judicial independence.
Gao Shaoting and Pei Yuankun have been in their positions for more than 20 years, and they are exhausted from making money. So, they will naturally have higher pursuits.
Lao Gong saw this very accurately.
Lu Ming thought about these things and smiled even more when he heard Gao Shaoting introduce that half of the county's land was his.
There is no doubt that Gao Shaoting has sent a very clear signal, and he is also very confident that Pei Yuankun will join Pan Xianzun's new interest group, so he should directly tell him such secret matters.
Pei Yuankun's eyes lit up slightly after hearing this, and then he smiled and said: "Boss Lu is not only famous in the East China Sea, but now he is also the largest landowner in Longgang! We who work in the judiciary must serve you well. The elites of the East China Sea come to our Longgang.
More and more, that is the blessing for us Longgang people."
Lu Ming smiled and said: "Pei Guan, I am also from Longgang now, right?"
"Haha, yes, we should understand what Boss Lu said!" Pei Yuankun laughed loudly and said: "Boss Lu, a young and talented young man, calls you boss. The smell of copper is too strong. Master Lu, come here, I respect you."
One glass!" He said and picked up the wine glass.
Lu Ming smiled and raised his glass to clink with him. He had made a lot of noise here, especially in the lawsuit in Montenegro. Therefore, as a legal person, Lao Pei had channels to find out about himself even if it was just a decoration.
Seeing Pei Yuankun's attitude, Gao Shaoting smiled even more happily and raised his glass, "Master Lu, I'd like to toast you too." He then smiled and said: "Old Pei, when we retire, with Master Lu's help, we can go to Donghai to retire.
Isn’t it wonderful?”
Lu Ming smiled: "Then you two have to wait. At least you have to shine in Longgang and Heishan for several more decades before you can be worthy of our Longgang folks, right?"
Going to the East China Sea was what Lao Gong had hinted to Gao Shaoting. Even if the battle failed in the end, there would be a retreat in the East China Sea. There was a colorful world there, and under the care of Boss Lu, everyone could live comfortably with their savings.
Gao Shaoting laughed even more when he heard Lu Ming's words: "I hope so!"
"Master Lu, I heard that your bookstore was confiscated by Zeng Xiangchen's people?" Pei Yuankun took the initiative to raise the topic.
Lu Ming smiled: "Yes, I copied it yesterday, and when my people went to sign it, the books I seized in the police station warehouse were all privately written books, and there were also obscene books. They are legal in the East China Sea, but they cannot be sold to
Books for minors are strictly prohibited locally and are called obscene books, right?"
"Oh..." Pei Yuankun began to think about it.
Lu Ming smiled and said: "Don't worry, Pei Guan. We took pictures of all the books that were confiscated at that time. The entries of the books that were confiscated are all clear. I think there is a mistake in those books in the warehouse. I
The person didn’t sign it, so the police department should correct the mistake and it won’t be as troublesome as a lawsuit.”
Pei Yuankun was startled and said with a smile: "So it's not Master Lu's book."
I was originally thinking about how to deal with this matter, but I didn't expect that it was Zeng Xiangchen who was responsible.
I think so. It's a bit funny that such a handsome man from the East China Sea came to this remote country to earn two cents from selling pornographic books.
Lu Ming laughed again and said: "What's interesting is that last night, a dozen thieves came into my bookstore, and they were all caught by my nursing home. Some people confessed that they came to steal cameras, films, photos, etc. Several of them brought boxes with them.
As for the artillery, the security in Longgang is so bad, thieves all have firearms, is the police department underfunded?"
Gao Shaoting and Pei Yuankun looked at each other in silence.
Lu Ming shook his head: "Pei Guan, I will deport him to the court this afternoon. I will ask you to appoint a judge to hear the case."
The counties under Montenegro are originally the prototype of the prosecutorial system. In many cases, criminal cases also require private prosecution. It is similar to the feudal era in the past. If you catch a thief or a robber, you will kidnap him to the county government and ask the county to judge the case and punish him. However, now it is kidnapped.
Court, where the judge decides the crime.
Pei Yuankun hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I understand."
Gao Shaoting smiled bitterly in his heart, it seemed that Er Zeng was in big trouble.
Originally, Agent Gong mentioned today that he had recently received a lot of reporting materials against Zeng Xiangfan and was preparing to hold a meeting in the afternoon to summarize them.
Who would have known that the police station where Xiangchen was once the chief would cause such trouble again.
It sounds like Zeng Xiangchen closed down the bookstore and was disgusted by this young master Lu. The package was dropped in the warehouse and turned into some kind of pornographic books.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Lu’s bookstore was clearly visible and photos were taken when it was closed down.
If you have money, you can do whatever you want. I guess every book has a photo taken?
After the police learned about it, they went to steal cameras and photos from the armed men of the Chen sect last night. They thought that if people were alerted, it would turn into a robbery, so many people brought firearms.
Who would have known that they would all be arrested by Master Lu's bodyguards.
Master Lu didn't say anything clearly, and he confessed everything he wanted to give.
This Er Zeng is so used to being arrogant and domineering in Longgang that he doesn't even realize how big the world is outside.
Now it is obvious that the talks with the Hu family have broken down, but they still want to stay and fight with the Hu family.
Such a political capital group, how much do you think you have, you are so eager to get involved with it, leaving no way out?
Or I have eaten too much on leisure these years, and I don’t know how high the sky is.
But then again, a dozen armed police officers went to ransack a bookstore and were captured in one fell swoop.
Moreover, there was no movement at all during the night, and not a single gunshot was heard.
Boss Lu’s bookstore is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.
Thinking about it, Gao Shaoting's face was a little heavy and he sighed, "Yes, since the banditry in the Black Mountains in the county has gradually subsided, Hei Laoliu was incorporated, Lao Jackal was wiped out, and the Whirlwind Horse disappeared, I thought the world was at peace.
Can county seat
The situation is getting more and more chaotic. Therefore, County Gongdai is planning to implement a state of emergency to combat riots in the county from 3 o'clock this afternoon, which means to use heavy medicine. The county's police company will be on duty in the streets, and the county's militia organizations will also be mobilized.
Awaiting order."
This is a secret. The only people who know the information now are a few close associates of Agent Gong.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the county office officials held a meeting. At the same time, the entire county entered a state of emergency and implemented management regulations during the anti-riot period.
Gao Shaoting told Pei Yuankun so that he would not have any other ideas when he heard that he was going to compete with Er Zeng.
Moreover, Gao Shaoting even suspected that Agent Gong might directly arrest Er Zeng after three o'clock in the afternoon, but he was not sure.
The one who is afraid of knowing the real plan of action is the security commander Lin Huli.
Because it is adjacent to the Heishan Mountains, where banditry is common, and the coal mining area is very chaotic, Longgang County has always had an independent security company, also called a security brigade.
Looking at Lu Ming, Gao Shaoting smiled and said: "I heard that Captain Lin Huli has a bad temper, but he still understands justice at critical moments."
Until now, Gao Shaoting still couldn't figure out when Agent Gong took Lin Huli, the useless person, under his command.
He was a famous loser, but he inherited a large fortune and had a dream of becoming a general, so he spent a huge amount of money to buy such a job.
However, military discipline under his rule was lax. He went to suppress bandits with great fanfare several times, but when he encountered Black Lao Liu or Lao Jackal, he was defeated at the first touch.
This loser has a great personality and often distributes his family wealth to his "brothers". From this point of view, he is unanimously supported by his subordinates.
But Lin Huli has a very smart mind. He is like the ancients. He feels that he is also a famous general, so he should be kind to his subordinates and have the courage to fight against the superiors.
Therefore, whether it was official documents from the Longgang County Department or the Montenegrin Guard Corps, he often disobeyed orders and responded to various calls with good reasons, but most of the time, they were all wrong.
If it weren't for the fact that the Longgang Guard Company was so poor and dangerous, and that he spent a lot of money to buy this position, he would have been dismissed long ago.
I don’t know how Agent Gong managed to tame such a weirdo, or maybe the Donghai people had a way.
Gao Shaoting was thinking wildly and wanted to get some inside information from Boss Lu, so he mentioned Lin Huli.
Lu Ming smiled, Lao Gong was really good at this, and he only knew now that Lao Gong had been eyeing the security company since the first day he came to Longgang, and had been studying Lin Huli.
Prescribe the right medicine according to Lin Huli's character. He often tells him stories about famous generals, buys him the latest technology military equipment books from the East China Sea, and also equips his personal security team with assault rifles.
What's even more terrible is to tell him how the top leaders of the five Jiangnan provinces are stupid and dark and should be overthrown.
A man should have great ambitions, take the suffering of the people as his own suffering, ridicule the people and fight against their crimes, and achieve a great cause.
Lin Huli now regarded Lao Gong as his life mentor and thought he was a member of an anti-imperialist organization, but he only tacitly understood this.
Lao Gong originally looked down on Lin Huli very much, thinking that he was ambitious but not talented, but he was just fooling him like a fool.
But gradually, Lao Gong said that he still likes this child now. Although he is too naive and confused, his innocent heart can sometimes make people feel ashamed.
Although I have never met Lin Huli, he sounds like a very interesting person.
Hearing Gao Shaoting talk about Lin Huli, Lu Ming smiled: "President Lin Lian has a lot of personality." He raised his glass and said, "Come, let's drink. You two were fine during the anti-rebellion period. You can come and go freely. I'm afraid.
If you are going to be locked up in a bookstore, you need to prepare some food in advance."
