This explosive news seemed to have wings and spread throughout the county compound in an instant. The office of Deputy County Secretary Wang Longping was just around the corner from Qiao Liang's office. After hearing the staff's report, Wang Longping, who was drinking tea,
The cup in his hand almost fell to the ground.
"Are you mistaken? Secretary Qiao brought that stinky beggar back to the office?" Wang Longping said in disbelief.
"Yes, many people have seen it, it's absolutely true." The staff nodded affirmatively.
Wang Longping was stunned and said to himself in a daze, "Isn't that stinky beggar's head abnormal? Why did Secretary Qiao bring him back?"
The staff immediately said, "Secretary Wang, that beggar is not crazy. I just heard about it. It seems that he went specifically to stop Secretary Qiao's car."
Wang Longping frowned, "Really?"
Wang Longping listened to the staff's report. At this moment in Qiao Liang's office, the man who was usually regarded as a beggar was standing a little cautiously. Qiao Liang asked him to sit down, but the man did not sit down. After Qiao Liang invited him again, the man
Then he said, "Secretary Qiao, I won't sit down, so as not to dirty your sofa."
Qiao Liang waved his hand, "It's okay, just sit down."
After Qiao Liang finished speaking, he asked again, "Do you know me?"
The man said, "You are the new secretary, of course I recognize you."
Qiao Liang said, "What did you want to report when you stopped a car on the street today?"
The man hesitated for a moment, turned to look at Wei Minzhe who had just followed him, and hesitated to speak.
Qiao Liang said, "Director Wei, go and do your business first."
The corner of Wei Minzhe's mouth twitched. He wanted to come in and see what this bastard was up to. Now that Qiao Liang was trying to get rid of him, he didn't dare to say no, so he could only leave reluctantly.
Qiao Liang walked over and closed the office door, "Can we talk now?"
The man nodded, "Secretary Qiao, after I tell the truth, can you ensure my safety?"
"Ensure your safety?" Qiao Liang glanced at the other party doubtfully, "Someone wants to harm you."
"Yes." The man nodded affirmatively, "If I make such a fuss today, everyone will know that I have been pretending to be crazy and a beggar all these years. Someone will definitely kill me."
Qiao Liang frowned slightly, nodded and said, "Okay, no problem, I will ensure your safety."
After Qiao Liang finished speaking, he waited for the other party's next words. Seeing that the other party was still staring at him but not speaking, he wondered, "Why, are there any other questions?"
The man scratched his head and opened his mouth, as if he didn't know what to say.
Qiao Liang looked at the other party and understood somewhat, "Are you worried that your safety cannot be completely guaranteed? Well, I live in a two-story building behind the county hotel now. There is a room downstairs, so you can
If you live there, you can rest assured, right?"
Hearing what Qiao Liang said, the man showed a relieved look on his face and said, "Secretary Qiao, I am actually not afraid of death. I have been a beggar for these years, picking up rags and eating everywhere. I have been sick for a long time, and I don't know if I can survive."
How long, I just don’t want to see my enemies die before they are brought to justice.”
Qiao Liang nodded, "Tell me about your business first."
The man looked lost in memories, "Secretary Qiao, I'm afraid you didn't expect that seven or eight years ago, I was the richest man in Daguan County. Haha, maybe calling me richest is a bit exaggerated, but many people jokingly call me the richest man in Daguan County.
Wealthy, but there are so many rich people in the county, who is richer, these are all made up randomly by good people, but in fact they can’t really be done..."
Listening to the other party's words, Qiao Liang was really surprised. The beggar man in front of him was actually the richest man in the county a few years ago. Although the other party's tone was a bit self-deprecating, looking at the other party, even if he was not the richest man, he was probably not an ordinary rich man.
How could money be reduced to this?
The man continued, "Secretary Qiao, the reason why I ended up in this situation is because I bid for the Guanhai Hotel with others a few years ago. It was because of that bid that my family was ruined."
"Why?" Qiao Liang's curiosity was aroused. How could bidding for a hotel result in the destruction of her family?
"A few years ago, the Guanhai Hotel was not called the Guanhai Hotel. Of course, at that time, the hotel was not what it is now. It was just a six-story small hotel. The hotel's business was pretty good. After all, that location was the center of the county.
The business couldn't have been any worse, but because of the hotel owner's bad gambling, he owed a lot of debt and was sued.
After the lawsuit was filed, the hotel was seized and put up for auction. I immediately signed up to participate in the auction. At that time, I planned to convert it into a hotel after winning the bid. I didn't expect that I was not the only one who had the same idea. Even the hotel had been regarded as a hotel for a long time.
The things in my pocket, because I interfered and was unwilling to compromise, my family was ruined..."
The man slowly narrated, and Qiao Liang also gradually understood the situation. The man's name was Zhu Shichun, and he was originally a well-known entrepreneur in the county. He was persecuted by Chen Cheng, the current owner of the Guanhai Hotel, in collusion with the then county leaders.
It resulted in the destruction of his family.
For this reason, the man pretended to be crazy and acted like a fool in recent years, living on the streets as a beggar.
According to what the man named Zhu Shichun said, the leader involved at that time was Song Jindi, the top leader in the county at that time. That was already seven or eight years ago, and Song Jindi is now the executive deputy mayor of the city.
Therefore, after Qiao Liang listened to Zhu Shichun's speech, his face was quite solemn. He came to Guanzhou to take office, and naturally he had a serious understanding of the leading members of the city team. Although Song Jindi is now the executive deputy mayor, in two or three years,
Previously, the other party was the city's Organization Minister, and later he was promoted from the Organization Minister to the Executive Deputy Mayor. Before serving as the Organization Minister, the other party was promoted from the top leader of Daguan County to the city's deputy mayor, but he did not join the team.
.
Therefore, Song Jindi's career trajectory in the past seven or eight years can be summarized as deputy mayor - city organization director - executive deputy mayor. Song Jindi has rotated through several important positions in the city and has served as a city leader for several years.
Such a person's foundation in the city is definitely not ordinary. If, as Zhu Shichun said, Song Jin was involved, then this matter would not be that simple.
Of course, what Zhu Shichun said at this moment was only one-sided, and Qiao Liang would not simply believe him. Whether it was true or not still needed to be verified.
"Is there any evidence for what you said?" Qiao Liang looked at the other party.
"Some things have evidence, and some things are difficult to prove. For example, Song Jindi instructed people from the tax bureau to investigate my company. For businesses like us, in order to avoid taxes, there will definitely be some tax problems.
, Not only that, he also asked people from the industrial and commercial, health and other relevant departments to take turns to inspect my company, which has affected the normal operation of my company. It can be said that he used his power to suppress and interfere with the operation of my company, and finally let me
The company cannot continue to operate..."
Qiao Liang frowned slightly. It is really difficult to define whether something is illegal or not. If you want to say someone broke the law, there are many excuses, or they can shirk it by saying that the person underneath made the decision without authorization. He just instructs the relevant departments to conduct an example.
There was no intention to specifically target the person during the inspection, or he could just be more ruthless and just blame it all, claiming that he was ignorant. After all, it is impossible for people to be stupid enough to leave any clues about this kind of thing. It is most likely just a verbal instruction.
Furthermore, this happened seven or eight years ago, so it might not be that easy to verify.
While Qiao Liang and Zhu Shichun were talking in the office, Wei Minzhe, who had just left Qiao Liang's office, was called to the office by deputy secretary Wang Longping.
Wang Longping politely asked Wei Minzhe to sit down and asked with a knowing smile, "Minzhe, I heard that Secretary Qiao brought that stinky beggar Zhu Shichun into the office?"
Wei Minzhe nodded and said, "Isn't that right? Secretary Qiao doesn't mind that stinky beggar. He is dirty and smelly all over. I almost vomited when I got closer. This guy keeps company with those garbage all day long. He is probably covered with maggots. Too much
It’s so disgusting, I don’t know how Secretary Qiao can bear it.”
Wei Minzhe couldn't help but use vulgar words. He had a good relationship with Wang Longping, and Zhu Shichun just now was indeed not an ordinary stinker.
Wang Longping didn't have the time to care about whether Zhu Shichun stunk or not, and asked, "What on earth does Zhu Shichun want to tell Secretary Qiao?"
Wei Minzhe spread his hands and said, "Secretary Wang, I don't know about this. I wanted to stay and listen just now, but Zhu Shichun deliberately asked Secretary Qiao to kick me out. I don't know what he was going to say."
Wei Minzhe glanced at Wang Longping as he spoke, and lowered his voice a bit, "Secretary Wang, I guess it has something to do with Mr. Chen, right? Zhu Shichun's family was ruined by him before, what else can he do besides this?"
The Mr. Chen mentioned by Wei Minzhe is Chen Cheng, the owner of Guanhai Hotel.
Wang Longping listened to Wei Minzhe's guess without any expression on his face. If Wei Minzhe could guess it, he could guess it too, and this was exactly what he was worried about. He was able to become the deputy secretary because of his support from the city.
Deputy Mayor Song Jindi was just mentioned. At that time, Song Jindi was the Municipal Organization Minister, and he was promoted from the countryside to the county. Before he was transferred to the executive deputy mayor, he was further promoted to the deputy secretary of the county. Without Song Jindi
There wouldn't be today without him.
Because of his close relationship with Song Jindi, his relationship with Chen Cheng is also extraordinary. This is why Chen Cheng called him immediately after the Guanhai Hotel was raided last night.
He had close contacts with Song Jindi and Chen Cheng, so he naturally knew what happened between Chen Cheng and Zhu Shichun, and there was also the shadow of Song Jindi here.
While Wang Longping was deep in thought, Wei Minzhe added, "Secretary Wang, now it seems that Zhu Shichun is also a ruthless character. He can pretend to be crazy and act like a beggar for so many years. This is not something ordinary people can do."
Wang Longping didn't say anything. Then his cell phone rang. Wang Longping picked it up and looked at the caller ID. Seeing that it was Chen Cheng, Wang Longping calmly hung up.
Wei Minzhe also glanced at Wang Longping calmly, as if he guessed who was calling. He stood up and said with a smile, "Secretary Wang, please be busy first. If nothing happens, I will go back."
