"Then tell me, what crime did Huang Qingshan commit?" Miao Peilong squinted his eyes. In addition to forcing Cai Minghai to release him, he also wanted to know the reason why Cai Minghai arrested him, which would also help him deal with it later.
"Secretary Miao, due to the need to keep the case confidential, I can't say anything about this right now." Cai Minghai hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said.
"You can't even tell me?" Miao Peilong's eyes were cold.
"Secretary Miao, I will report to you in detail after the case investigation is completed," Cai Minghai said.
"Haha, Cai Minghai, I can't bear the responsibility of being your secretary. I don't think I exist as a secretary in your eyes." Miao Peilong laughed angrily.
"Secretary Miao, please don't say that. I will always treat you as secretary." Cai Minghai said bravely.
"Secretary Miao, please don't embarrass Director Cai. The county bureau has their own rules for handling cases. Maybe the case does require confidentiality and it's not convenient to talk about it." Qiao Liang said for Cai Minghai.
"Really?" Miao Peilong turned to look at Qiao Liang and pointed the finger at Qiao Liang, "County Chief Qiao, I would like to ask, do you know the reason for the county bureau's arrest? Don't tell me. you do not know."
Miao Peilong's words obviously hit the point. Qiao Liang's eyes flickered and he was silent for a moment.
"Well, I see that Cai Minghai only has eyes for the county magistrate and not me as secretary." Miao Peilong sneered.
Hearing Miao Peilong talk about this, Cai Minghai weighed it in his mind and said simply, "Secretary Miao, Huang Qingshan is involved in Jiang Hui's case. Our county bureau arrested him because Jiang Hui confessed to Huang Qingshan."
"Are you kidding me? Jiang Hui has already run away, and Huang Qingshan is the ghost you offered?" Miao Peilong glared.
"Secretary Miao, Jiang Hui has been captured by us again." Cai Minghai said.
"What did you say?" Miao Peilong was shocked.
Miao Peilong could hardly believe Cai Minghai's words. Tao Wang had previously reported to him that Jiang Hui had been smuggled out, and Tao Wang was very sure about it. Miao Peilong had no reason not to believe it, and it was precisely because Miao Peilong was convinced. Jiang Hui had already moved away, so he had the confidence to ask Cai Minghai to let Huang Qingshan go. But at this time, Cai Minghai told him that Jiang Hui had been arrested.
How is this possible? Could it be that Cai Minghai was lying? The idea just popped into Miao Peilong's mind, and he immediately denied it. Cai Minghai had no need and did not dare to lie to him about such a major matter. He could not afford the serious consequences of lying. In this case, Jiang Hui was really captured by Cai Minghai.
Since Cai Minghai did not lie, then Tao Wang lied, or Tao Wang's information was inaccurate, or he was deceived by his subordinates.
Miao Peilong quickly made this judgment, and suddenly felt nervous and frightened. For the first time, a rare gaffe appeared on his face.
After a brief period of confusion, Miao Peilong took a deep breath, stared at Cai Minghai and said in a deep voice, "When did this happen?"
"Just the past few days." Cai Minghai replied.
"Why didn't you report to me immediately after you caught Jiang Hui?" Miao Peilong glared at Cai Minghai.
"Secretary Miao, it's not that I won't report to you, but the case has not been fully investigated yet. I wanted to wait until the investigation of the case is completed before reporting to you in detail. I have no intention of hiding anything from you." Cai Minghai explained.
Hearing Cai Minghai's explanation, Miao Peilong's eyes were gloomy. Of course he would not believe Cai Minghai's words. The other party's words were nothing more than making excuses to deal with him. And according to Cai Minghai, Jiang Hui had been arrested for several days. What did the other party confess? What happened?
Miao Peilong's expression changed, and then Cai Minghai said again, "Secretary Miao, the problems involved in Huang Qingshan are very serious, and we really have no way to release him."
"In that case, just pretend I didn't say anything." Miao Peilong said expressionlessly. He was already a little confused. Originally, he called Qiao Liang and Cai Minghai together to force Cai Minghai to release him, but Now the news that Jiang Hui was arrested suddenly appeared, which made Miao Peilong confused. For a moment, Miao Peilong felt a little scared, because Jiang Hui knew too many things, and once Jiang Hui recruited them all... …
Miao Peilong's face turned pale and he didn't dare to think further.
"Secretary Miao, are you okay?" Cai Minghai looked at Miao Peilong.
"It's okay." Miao Peilong calmed down and didn't want to lose his composure in front of the two of them. He looked at Cai Minghai and Qiao Liang and said, "It's okay. You can go."
"Then we won't disturb Secretary Miao." Qiao Liang stood up and left with Cai Minghai.
The two of them came out of Miao Peilong's office and when they went downstairs, Qiao Liang turned to Cai Minghai and asked, "Old Cai, if you tell the story about Jiang Hui's arrest, will it have any impact on your handling of the case?"
"No, Jiang Hui has confessed now, and he is under our control, so he will be fine." Cai Minghai said with confidence. He only took the initiative to arrest Jiang Hui after making a balance. Say it.
Then Cai Minghai added, "If I hadn't told the story about Jiang Hui's arrest just now, I'm afraid Secretary Miao would have forced me to release him."
"When you said that, I think Secretary Miao was quite frightened." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"That's right." Cai Minghai laughed, thinking of Miao Peilong's shocked expression just now. Cai Minghai knew that this news had brought a huge shock to Miao Peilong.
"Lao Cai, now that the news of Jiang Hui's arrest has been revealed, you must be very careful to prevent another accident like last time." Qiao Liang said again.
"County Magistrate, don't worry. If Jiang Hui escapes again, I really won't have to do my job as director." Cai Minghai said.
"Okay, as long as you have this confidence." Qiao Liang smiled and nodded.
The two of them went downstairs while talking. As soon as they arrived downstairs, they met Zhang Honghua who was walking towards them.
Zhang Honghua came here after hearing the news about Miao Peilong's return, and was going to see Miao Peilong. What he was holding in his hand was the document for applying for funds from the county bureau.
Zhang Honghua didn't expect to meet Qiao Liang and Cai Minghai downstairs. He was stunned for a moment, and then said hello to them awkwardly.
"Deputy County Magistrate Zhang is looking for Secretary Miao?" Qiao Liang looked at Zhang Honghua.
"Yes." Zhang Honghua nodded.
Hearing this, Qiao Liang looked at the documents in Zhang Honghua's hand and gave Zhang Honghua a meaningful look, "Well, then you can go ahead."
Zhang Honghua nodded, passed by Qiao Liang, and hurried upstairs.
Cai Minghai stood aside. He just felt that there seemed to be a vague eye contact between Qiao Liang and Zhang Honghua, but Cai Minghai didn't ask any more questions.
Then a question suddenly popped up in Cai Minghai's mind. He looked at Qiao Liang and said, "County Magistrate Qiao, I just suddenly thought of something."
"What's going on?" Qiao Liang looked at Cai Minghai.
Cai Minghai said, "County Magistrate Qiao, tell me, what position will the executive deputy magistrate take in the next step? Will he have a better future than the full-time deputy secretary?"
Qiao Liang blinked, "Old Cai, why did you suddenly think of asking this?"
Cai Minghai smiled and said, "I just saw Deputy County Magistrate Zhang and thought of Deputy Secretary Ye, so I couldn't help but want to ask."
"You still need to ask me this question? Do you really don't understand?" Qiao Liang said with a smile.
Cai Minghai continued to laugh, "To be honest, I have been working in this system. I handle a lot of cases for the society and have little contact with the leadership. The contact area is relatively narrow. In addition, I have been in the province before, so I am not very familiar with the organizational structure of the county. It’s clear, I really don’t know much about this aspect...I’m sorry, the knowledge within my system is too narrow, which makes County Magistrate Qiao laugh.”
Qiao Liang laughed. Cai Minghai's words were true. After thinking about it, Qiao Liang said, "Old Cai, the question you asked is interesting. Let's put it this way. In the county government team, the executive deputy county magistrate is in charge of the county magistrate. Below him, and above other deputy county magistrates, he is definitely a leader with high authority in the county, such as our deputy magistrate Zhang."
"Yeah." Cai Minghai nodded and looked at Qiao Liang.
Qiao Liang continued, "In the county-level system, there are two position leaders who are "alternates" for the county magistrate. One is the full-time deputy secretary of the county party committee, such as Comrade Ye Xinyi, and the other is a member of the county team and the executive deputy county magistrate. From Judging from the actual power in hand, the full-time deputy secretary of the county is mainly in charge of party building and stability, but party building is handled by the organization minister, and stability is handled by the secretary of the political and legal committee. Both leaders are members of the county team and are current leaders in this field. , his words are more effective than those of the full-time deputy secretary of the county. Therefore, people within the system generally believe that although the full-time deputy secretary of the county is a member of the "five-person group" of the county team, he really does not have much real power."
"What about the executive deputy county magistrate?" Cai Minghai asked.
Qiao Liang said, "This is not the case for the executive deputy county magistrate. Although he is ranked behind the full-time deputy secretary, as the leader of the county government responsible for executive work, he is in charge of the most powerful departments such as development and reform, finance, and taxation. He has no control over other deputy officials. The county magistrate is also responsible for guidance, coordination and supervision, and indeed holds more real power than the full-time deputy secretary.
However, this is often the case within the system. The greater the real power, the greater the responsibility. Every document signed by oneself has to bear leadership responsibility. In contrast, a full-time deputy secretary is more detached, has a higher status within the team, and has a better career development. Very good, the next step is to take over the county magistrate, or to be promoted to the county People's Congress Standing Committee or the county CPPCC, which is a natural thing. However, the executive deputy county magistrate does not have this advantage. It is more difficult to take over the county magistrate, so he can be promoted directly. It is also rare to have a full-time position on the Standing Committee of the County People's Congress or the County CPPCC. The most likely option is to take over as a full-time deputy secretary..."
When Qiao Liang said this, he subconsciously wanted to say this because of some dissatisfaction with Zhang Honghua and his relationship with Ye Xinyi, but what he said was actually the truth.
In fact, Qiao Liang is aware of Zhang Honghua's recent situation, because the executive deputy county magistrate's distress is not about career development and assuming responsibilities, but how to handle the relationship between superiors and subordinates. Other deputy magistrates and department heads in the county, They all hope that the executive deputy county magistrate can support them and do their jobs well. The two county officials have mixed feelings about the executive deputy county magistrate, and they both hope that the executive deputy county magistrate will listen to them.
Of course, Qiao Liang understood that Miao Peilong's feelings about Zhang Honghua should not be complicated.
