"Secretary Fang, I know this matter is very difficult for you, but I am just a grandson, and I really can't bear to see anything happen to him." At this point, Jin Lao's dim eyes suddenly began to shed tears: "I am a grandson this year.
I am eighty-one years old and have only a few years to live. My biggest hope now is to see Jin Xin get married quickly and give me a fat great-grandson. If Jin Xin goes to jail this time, will I be able to live?
It will be a question until he is released from prison... I have lived for eighty-one years and have never done anything against my conscience. But this time, for the sake of my grandson, I can only ask you without conscience... As long as you don't
Let Jin Xin go to jail, I will agree to any conditions!"
Fang Datong's face flickered, and he was struggling in his heart. According to his own principles, he would definitely not agree to rescue Jin Xin. If he did something wrong, he would be punished, but... Fang Datong couldn't bear to refuse Jin Lao's request.
Strictly speaking, Mr. Jin was kind to him. Without Mr. Jin's help, Fang Datong would never have achieved what he has today. Mr. Jin was also an official in the past, and his official position was not small. When Mr. Jin was an official, Fang Datong
He took great care of him and promoted Fang Datong several times in a row. In this way, Fang Datong has come step by step to where he is today. Fang Datong is a man who repays his kindness. He has always respected Mr. Jin and treated him as a father. He would also do so during holidays.
Bring gifts for a visit.
Such an old man who was kind to him knelt on the ground and begged, what should Fang Datong do? Should he insist on his own principles and refuse? Or should he agree with the intention of repaying his kindness? But Fang Datong was stumped.
At this time, Lin Rongxiu came over: "Lao Fang, Lao Jin has been kind to our family. We can't break his heart, and we can't be ungrateful."
Fang Datong's face twitched fiercely: "Of course I don't want to be an ungrateful person, but what Mr. Jin proposed is really difficult for me."
"No matter how difficult it is, you can't chill Mr. Jin's heart. You must take care of this matter." Lin Rongxiu said loudly: "Don't you always complain that you don't have the opportunity to repay Mr. Jin's kindness? This time the opportunity comes, do you still want to do it?
Refuse?"
"I...I..." After hearing his wife's words, Fang Datong's heart became even more confused.
"I beg you, save Jin Xin." Mr. Jin broke free from Fang Datong's hands, bent down and kowtowed to Fang Datong, his forehead hitting the floor with a dull sound. This Mr. Jin was risking his life to save his grandson.
"Oops... Mr. Jin, what are you doing..." Fang Datong hurriedly supported Mr. Jin, with a wry smile on his lips: "Okay, I promise you, I promise!"
"Really!" Jin Lao looked happy.
Fang Datong nodded: "I can promise you to rescue Jin Xin, but I have a condition."
"You say, you say, don't mention one condition, even if it is a hundred or a thousand conditions, I will agree to it!" It can be seen that this Mr. Jin really loves his grandson.
"It's just this once, I won't do it next time! This time I can violate my principles to help you, but if I encounter similar things in the future, I will never reach out again!" Fang Datong said with a serious expression.
"Okay, no problem! I agree!" Mr. Jin nodded hurriedly.
"I have promised you, can you get up?" Fang Datong said.
"Okay, okay, I'll get up. I'll get up right away." Mr. Jin struggled to stand up from the ground: "Secretary Fang, it's getting late. I should go back. You must inform me when there is news." After that,
, Mr. Jin is about to leave.
Fang Datong asked Mr. Jin to stay for dinner, but Mr. Jin refused. After sending Mr. Jin away, Fang Datong immediately frowned and sat on the sofa alone, sulking.
"What's wrong? Feeling unhappy?" Lin Rongxiu asked.
"Alas..." Fang Datong sighed: "Elder Jin gave me a difficult problem... The principles I have maintained throughout my life have been completely destroyed..."
"Is it as serious as you said?" Lin Rongxiu curled her lips.
"I'm tired, let's go to bed." Fang Datong didn't want to argue with his wife, so he stood up and walked towards the bedroom.
"You haven't had dinner yet..." Lin Rongxiu shouted.
"I'm full of anger, you can eat it yourself." Fang Datong waved his hand and walked into the bedroom without looking back.
Lin Rongxiu stamped her feet: "You are already over 50 years old, but you are still acting like a child."
…
Fang Datong stayed up all night and went to work the next day with red eyes. He sat in the office and hesitated for a long time before picking up the phone and calling Liu Yuncai: "Old Liu... are you free now? Come to my office, I'm a little bit
I need to tell you something...Okay, I'll wait for you to come over."
Not long after Fang Datong put down the phone, Liu Yuncai walked into the office with steady steps.
"Boss, what do you want from me?" Without Fang Datong's greeting, Liu Yuncai pulled up his chair and sat down. It can be seen that Liu Yuncai was very relaxed in front of Fang Datong, which is enough to show that the relationship between the two is very close.
"Ahem...Old Liu, have you heard...the cross-sea bridge built just a few years ago in Lanhai City collapsed." Fang Datong coughed lightly.
Liu Yuncai nodded: "I heard that it collapsed because of quality problems. People nowadays are so courageous that they dare to cut corners when building a cross-sea bridge. It's really damned!"
"Ahem..." Fang Datong coughed a few more times: "As far as I know, the cross-sea bridge was built by a company in the province. The name of this company is Tianyun Construction Co., Ltd., and the boss's surname is Jin. His full name is
It’s called Jin Xin.”
"I didn't expect the leader to know so clearly about this matter." Liu Yuncai smiled.
"Um...Jin Xin is Mr. Jin's grandson." At this point, Fang Datong added: "He is his grandson!"
Liu Yuncai was stunned: "Mr. Jin? Are you talking about Mr. Jin who used to be the deputy governor?"
Fang Datong nodded: "That's him."
Liu Yuncai frowned: "I didn't expect that Jin Xin has such a profound background."
"Mr. Jin is kind to me." Fang Datong sighed softly: "Without Mr. Jin's support, I would never have achieved what I have today."
"Leader, what do you mean..." Liu Yuncai asked doubtfully.
Fang Datong glanced at Liu Yuncai: "Jin Xin is Mr. Jin's grandson, his only grandson. I can't just die without saving him."
Liu Yuncai fell silent immediately.
"Lao Liu, can you understand my mood?" Fang Datong asked.
Liu Yuncai opened his mouth: "I understand...but...just because I want to repay a favor, do I have to bend the law for personal gain?"
"I'm very helpless." Fang Datong said with a bitter smile: "Mr. Jin was kind to me, and I must repay it! I have inquired, and it was around five o'clock in the morning when the Lanhai City Cross-sea Bridge collapsed. There was no cause of death at that time.
As long as no one dies, things will be easy to handle... Go talk to Ma Xiaoyao and ask him to let Jin Xin go. Of course, Jin Xin will definitely be punished for causing such a big disaster. Just
Let Jin Xin re-build the cross-sea bridge at his own expense. This time, the bridge must be built solidly without any mistakes." Fang Datong was embarrassed to go directly to Ma Xiaoyao to intercede, so he asked Liu Yuncai to be the microphone. Fang Datong knew
Liu Yuncai and Ma Xiaoyao have a close relationship. If Liu Yuncai comes forward to send the message, Ma Xiaoyao will definitely listen.
Liu Yuncai's face twitched: "Are you really determined to take care of this matter?"
Fang Datong nodded: "Yes, I have already promised Mr. Jin, Mr. Liu, this is just this time, and I won't do it next time."
Liu Yuncai sighed: "Okay, I'll go tell Ma Xiaoyao..." After saying that, Liu Yuncai stood up and was about to leave. When he walked to the door, Liu Yuncai stopped, turned around slowly, and looked at Fang Datong:
"Leader, if it were me, I would never repay the favor in a way that violates my principles, because my conscience will be uneasy for the rest of my life." After saying this, Liu Yuncai strode away.
"Why am I willing to do this?" Fang Datong shook his head helplessly: "What is the most difficult thing in the world to repay? It's kindness!"
…
Blue Ocean City.
Ma Xiaoyao was discussing things with Sun Maoqi, Lu Haifeng and Qin Mingyue when the phone on his desk suddenly rang.
"I'll answer the phone first." Ma Xiaoyao gestured to Sun Maoqi and others, then reached out and picked up the phone: "Hello? Who is this?"
"It's me..." Liu Yuncai's deep voice came from the phone.
"Ah, it's Secretary Liu... Oh, no, no, no, now I should call him Vice Governor Liu..." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"Is it convenient for you? I have something to tell you." Liu Yuncai asked.
"Oh, I'm discussing things with several deputy mayors... What about that, please wait a moment." Ma Xiaoyao covered the microphone and looked up at Sun Maoqi and others: "Okay, let's talk about this today, you guys first
Go back and we can talk when you have time."
Sun Maoqi, Lu Haifeng and Qin Mingyue stood up and left the office.
"Okay, I sent everyone away, and now I'm the only one left in the office." Ma Xiaoyao said into the microphone.
"..." Liu Yuncai was silent for a moment, and then said: "You arrested a person named Jin Xin, right?"
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Yes, Jin Xin's company was responsible for building the collapsed cross-sea bridge. He has an unshirkable responsibility."
"Secretary Fang found me and asked me to say hello and ask you to let Jin Xin go." Liu Yuncai said slowly.
"Well, eh?" Ma Xiaoyao's eyes widened: "Did I hear you right? Secretary Fang asked me to let Jin Xin go? Why? Is this Jin Xin related to Secretary Fang?"
"Jin Xin's grandfather once helped Secretary Fang." Liu Yuncai said: "Secretary Fang wants to repay his kindness...Xiao Ma, if you can, let Jin Xin go. Secretary Fang said that he will let Jin Xin pay for the construction of a new bridge on his own.
Sea Bridge.”
Ma Xiaoyao's face twitched several times: "Jin Xin ordered his subordinates to cut corners and embezzle state funds, and it collapsed within a year. How evil is his nature? How can he let it go so easily?"
"Jin Xin did go too far, but... didn't anyone die?" Liu Yuncai said.
