Opening his mouth, Chen Cheng was about to say something else when his cell phone prompted an incoming call. Chen Cheng took it to him and looked at it. His pupils shrank slightly and he didn't bother to talk to Lu Changming anymore. He said, "Director Lu, let's wait for a while and talk to Lu Changming." Come on, I have another phone number now."
After Chen Cheng finished speaking, he hung up the phone from Lu Changming and answered the incoming call with a respectful look on his face, "Mayor Song."
"Where are you now?" On the other end of the phone was Song Jindi, the city's executive deputy mayor.
"Mayor Song, I'm in the office upstairs in the hotel." Chen Cheng said cautiously. Although he dared to yell in front of Lu Changming, he was like a grandson in front of Song Jindi.
"I'm in the county seat. Come right over." Song Jin said this and then hung up the phone.
Soon, Chen Cheng's mobile phone received a navigation positioning, and Chen Cheng quickly left the hotel.
Song Jindi is currently in a residential area in the county town. At this time, he did not go directly to the hotel to find Chen Cheng, obviously because he was afraid of being noticed by the crowd.
Chen Cheng hurried to where Song Jindi was. As soon as he entered the door, he said, "Mayor Song, why are you here?"
Song Jindi stared at Chen Cheng and snorted, "If I don't come, my boss will be exposed."
Chen Cheng's face stiffened for a moment. Knowing that Song Jin was talking about Zhu Shichun, he immediately smiled and said, "Mayor Song, the reason why I didn't tell you about this is because everything is under my control. I think There is no need to disturb your purity with such nonsense."
"It's all under your control?" Song Jin patted the table and glared, "Tell me, why is it under your control? Are you aware that Zhu Shichun has been pretending to be a beggar all these years, or are you? Want to rush directly into Qiao Liang’s dormitory and kill people?”
Chen Cheng laughed mischievously, "Mayor Song, besides killing Zhu Shichun, there doesn't seem to be any other way."
Song Jindi said coldly, "People want to be killed, but it depends on how."
Chen Cheng raised his eyebrows, "If we can't do it in Secretary Qiao's dormitory, we can only wait until Zhu Shichun leaves the house before we do it."
Song Jin asked, "What if he keeps cowering away and doesn't go out?"
Chen Cheng scratched his head. It was not that he had never thought about this possibility. In addition, he was worried about the long nights and dreams, so he directly called Lu Changming and asked him to remove the plainclothes guards.
Seeing that Chen Cheng was silent, Song Jindi knew that Chen Cheng must not be able to do anything right now. He couldn't help snorting coldly and said with a sinister look on his face, "Zhu Shichun is quite ruthless and can tolerate being a beggar for so many years. If this person was placed in ancient times, , he is almost becoming a ruthless character like Gou Jian, King of Yue."
Chen Cheng disagreed, "Mayor Song, you praise him too much, even King Goujian of Yue. I think he is trash."
Song Jin's eyes widened, "Don't show off to me now. Do you know the seriousness of this matter?"
Chen Cheng shrank his neck and realized that Song Jindi was angry. He smiled carefully and said, "Mayor Song, this matter shouldn't be that serious. Even if Zhu Shichun knows something, you are the leader of the city. He asked that Qiao Is there anything else the secretary can do to you?"
Song Jindi said angrily, "You know what the heck, this is a sensitive period, the supervision team will come back at any time, and cadres in the city have been fired one after another, do you want me to be noticed by the supervision team? Also, what about Qiao? Liang is not an ordinary person, he can speak directly to the main leaders of the province, how can you make me feel at ease?"
Chen Cheng gritted his teeth and said, "Mayor Song, please give me some time. Three days, no, seven days at most. I will solve the matter without affecting you. I believe nothing will happen in seven days." So many things.”
Song Jindi looked at Chen Cheng faintly, "I'm afraid you can't solve it within seven days. Zhu Shichun has been dormant and endured for so many years. He chose to jump out at this time. It was definitely after careful consideration, and he indeed picked a good time. The transferred Qiao Liang is different from the previous secretaries. He is still the leader of the city team. In terms of status and level, he is the same as me."
Chen Cheng said in a low voice, "There will always be a solution, so what does it matter no matter how great Secretary Qiao is? He has just arrived, so he may not be able to control much of the affairs in the county, and I have been operating in Daguan County for so many years."
Song Jindi stared at Chen Cheng for a while, "Okay, then I will believe you and see if you can solve the problem in seven days, but I warn you, no matter what method you use, it is best to deal with it cleanly, and it must be done with one blow. Kill, don't let things go wrong and end up trapping yourself."
Chen Cheng vowed, "Mayor Song, don't worry, I will definitely get things done."
Song Jindi said calmly, "It's your business whether you can handle it or not. Just remember that I didn't come to see you today, and we never met."
Chen Cheng was dumbfounded, glanced at Song Jin, and couldn't help but cursed in his heart: "Fuck you, this guy named Song is going to kill me completely now."
Chen Cheng cursed in his heart, but did not dare to show any dissatisfaction on his face.
Song Jindi chatted with Chen Cheng for a while and then sent him away.
As soon as Chen Cheng left, a door to a room that was originally closed opened and County Deputy Secretary Wang Longping came out.
Wang Longping had just arrived first, but at this juncture he didn't want to meet Chen Cheng directly.
"I don't know if Mr. Chen can handle the matter well." Wang Longping walked up to Song Jindi and said.
"Well, we can only let him do this kind of dirty work, otherwise who can we expect?" Song Jindi sighed, "Who would have thought that Zhu Shichun would be so cruel to him. He was a successful person in the past, and he could pretend to be... I have been a beggar for so many years.”
"The more ruthless he is, the more it shows that he is well prepared when he jumps out this time." Wang Longping said.
At this time, Wang Longping was somewhat thankful that he had not had much involvement in what happened back then. At that time, he was only a township cadre and did not get involved in the affairs of Zhu Shichun and Chen Cheng.
But having said that, there are no unfinished eggs when the nest is overturned. If Chen Cheng is really done, if the other party wants to drag them to be buried with him, then they will have to follow suit. After he was transferred from the township to the county in these years, he and Chen Cheng There were frequent contacts, and Chen Cheng received many benefits. The two parties had economic interests.
"Is that Lu Changming reliable?" Song Jin asked suddenly.
"Lu Changming... he should be quite reliable." Wang Longping hesitated, "Lu Changming is close to County Magistrate Chang, and although he is quite respectful to me, he is not from our side after all, but Chen I should have sent benefits to Lu Changming, it just depends on whether Lu Changming is willing to go out of his way to help him."
"So, this Lu Changming may not be reliable." Song Jindi murmured, with a trace of worry in his eyes.
"Mayor Song, let Mr. Chen do the trouble at this time. As you just said, he can only do the dirty work. You can't rush to take the lead. At most, we can provide him with some help." Wang Longping said.
"Oh, how dare I take the lead at this juncture? The supervision team will come back at any time. This time, the city's deputy secretary and the head of the city's disciplinary department have been replaced. Who knows if there will be another one? The supervision team's Sword of Bodhidharma hangs over their heads, and everyone wants to keep a low profile at this time." Song Jin sighed, "So I say that bastard Zhu Shichun picked a good time."
"Let's take it one step at a time. Let's see how Mr. Chen handles things first. It's useless to worry too much now." Wang Longping comforted him. He was not comforting himself by saying this. If Zhu Shichun's matter was resolved smoothly, then Everyone is happy. If Zhu Shichun's matter cannot be resolved and the trouble becomes bigger in the end, then Wang Longping will also be affected, because once Chen Cheng is investigated, there is no guarantee that he will not be implicated.
Song Jin nodded and whispered some instructions to Wang Longping. The other party was his chess piece in the county, and he controlled many things remotely through Wang Longping.
Song Jindi came to the county in a hurry and returned quietly. No one knew that Song Jindi came and left quietly at noon.
In the afternoon, Qiao Liang left the dormitory just before work time. Before leaving, Qiao Liang looked at the two plainclothes people at the door of the dormitory, said thank you for your hard work, and asked them to bring more snacks before leaving. .
Back in the office, Qiao Liang was busy for a while, and then set off from the office to the villages and towns for investigation. This trip was originally planned in the morning, but because it was delayed by Zhu Shichun's affairs, it was postponed directly to the afternoon.
The county leaders who accompanied Qiao Liang to inspect the townships were still Wei Minzhe, director of the committee office, and Chen Fangyang, deputy county magistrate.
During the inspection, Wei Minzhe tested Qiao Liang's tone, "Secretary Qiao, I heard that you let Zhu Shichun live in your dormitory?"
Qiao Liang glanced at Wei Minzhe, "Is there any problem?"
Wei Minzhe smiled quickly and said, "That must be no problem. It's just that Zhu Shichun, a stinky beggar, lives in your place. I'm afraid that Secretary Qiao won't be able to bear it and will tarnish your identity, Secretary Qiao."
Qiao Liang said with a smile, "Director Wei, what do you mean by tarnishing my identity? Are you classifying people into different categories?"
Wei Minzhe laughed dryly and said, "Secretary Qiao, I didn't mean that."
Wei Minzhe said this, but secretly murmured in his heart, aren't there three levels of people? If you, Qiao Liang, were not the leader, why would I have to be so groveling to you?
Wei Minzhe always kept a smile on his face and asked casually, "Secretary Qiao, what exactly does Zhu Shichun want to do with you? I'm afraid you don't know that in this morning, the news about Zhu Shichun has spread all over the sky."
Qiao Liang said, "How the news is spread is other people's business. We just have to do our own thing. Director Wei, don't you think so?"
Wei Minzhe nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "Yes, Secretary Qiao, you are right."
After Wei Minzhe finished speaking, he glanced at Qiao Liang, intending to inquire more, but he did not dare to ask any more questions. What Qiao Liang had just said was somewhat meant to knock him.
The inspection time in the afternoon was a little rushed. It was almost six o'clock after the group completed their inspection in the village. Dinner was arranged in the village, but Qiao Liang declined and took the people directly back to the county.
