After listening to what Qiao Liang said, Zhou Zhilong was also quite angry: "This Wang Fulai will cause trouble for you as soon as he takes office."
"He wears the same pants as County Magistrate Shang, and Magistrate Shang's instruction is probably indispensable behind this." Qiao Liang shook his head dejectedly, and said, "Brother, it was you who mentioned Jia Fangrong, the director of the Finance Bureau, before. You said Is it possible that Jia Fangrong could help secretly and secretly pay out the remaining compensation for returning farmland to grassland?"
Zhou Zhilong hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm not sure about this either."
When Qiao Liang heard this, a look of disappointment appeared on his face.
"Brother, you also know that there was once an emperor and a courtier. Now that I am no longer here, the Finance Bureau is in charge of Wang Fulai, so Jia Fangrong must listen to Wang Fulai. In Lao Jia's position, it is actually difficult for him to handle it. "Zhou Zhilong sighed, "I still know Lao Jia. He is also a person who wants to do something. Otherwise, I would not have supported him as the director before. However, Lao Jia also has his limitations. I’m a little less tough in doing things.”
Hearing Zhou Zhilong's words, Qiao Liang nodded slightly. He heard two meanings from Zhou Zhilong's words. First: Zhou Zhilong and Jia Fangrong have a close relationship, otherwise they would not call each other "Lao Jia"; second, Zhou Zhilong is now transferring After leaving, Jia Fangrong's position may begin to waver.
"It seems that there is no hope for Director Jia." Qiao Liang sighed.
"Brother, don't be discouraged yet. Let me try it for you. Maybe Lao Jia Nian is willing to help you take a risk because of my friendship with him." Zhou Zhilong said.
"Why are you being polite to me? Next time you come back to the city, just remember to have a drink with me." Zhou Zhilong said with a smile.
The two ended the call, and Qiao Liang sat quietly, waiting for news from Zhou Zhilong.
After a while, Zhou Zhilong's phone call came, and Qiao Liang hurriedly picked it up.
"Brother, it didn't work." Zhou Zhilong's helpless voice came over the phone.
"Director Jia doesn't want to take risks, right?" Qiao Liang frowned.
"Hey, I said before, Lao Jia is not tough enough. This is his shortcoming." Zhou Zhilong shook his head, "In your matter, he wanted to help, but he was afraid of offending Wang Fulai, so he didn't say anything Let’s be clear, if he offends Wang Fulai and he is not from Magistrate Shang’s side, then he basically doesn’t need to be the director.”
"Brother, listening to what you say, this Director Jia may not be tough enough, but he knows how to survive within the system." Qiao Liang laughed.
Zhou Zhilong heard the irony in Qiao Liang's words and said with a wry smile: "There is no way, everyone has their own choice."
"Okay, brother, I understand. No matter what, I still have to thank you for this." Qiao Liang said again.
"Okay, you've met me again, haven't you?" Zhou Zhilong said dissatisfied.
"It's my fault, brother. I'll see you in the city later. I'll punish myself with three cups of wine first." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"Then it's settled." Zhou Zhilong smiled.
"Brother, let's do this for now. I'm going to meet that Wang Fulai." Qiao Liang said.
"Okay, let's do this for now." Zhou Zhilong nodded.
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows and came to Wang Fulai's office next door.
Just as Wang Fulai was about to go out, he saw Qiao Liang coming and laughed: "County Magistrate Qiao is here, sit down."
"County Magistrate Wang is going out?" Qiao Liang glanced at the coat in the other person's hand.
"I have something to go out, but it doesn't matter, County Magistrate Qiao is here, so I will definitely accompany Magistrate Qiao first." Wang Fulai laughed.
Hearing Wang Fulai's words, Qiao Liang shuddered. This guy was so polite to him on the surface, but he was not merciless at all when he made trouble secretly.
"Since County Magistrate Wang is going out, I will talk about the matter directly without wasting Magistrate Wang's time." Qiao Liang said calmly.
"Well, County Magistrate Qiao, just tell me if you have anything to say." Wang Fulai still had the same smiling face.
"County Magistrate Wang, I heard from the Finance Bureau that it was County Magistrate Wang who requested that the compensation for returning farmland to grassland be stopped first?" Qiao Liang looked at Wang Fulai and asked.
"Yes, I asked for it." Wang Fulai smiled and nodded, "County Magistrate Qiao, I know this matter is related to the poverty alleviation work you are in charge of, but you have to be considerate of me. I have just taken office, and I must first Have you smoothed out the work you are in charge of? Especially the financial aspect, which is the top priority. Brother, I have to find out our family background in Liangbei County first, don’t you think so?"
Nima, whose brother are you? When Qiao Liang heard that Wang Fulai didn't mean anything, he cursed in his heart and said: "County Magistrate Wang, you have to find out the county finance family background, I don't know. Opinion, but there is no need to stop paying compensation for returning farmland to grassland."
"Don't be anxious, County Magistrate Qiao. When I finish all the work later, the money will be paid out soon. Besides, what I stopped this time is not just the payment of compensation for returning farmland to grassland, but other very important things." I have also stopped all necessary related expenditures, County Magistrate Qiao, please don’t misunderstand that I am targeting you." Wang Fulai said with a smile.
Damn it, before I said it, you denied it yourself. It is obvious that there is no three hundred taels of silver here.
Qiao Liang looked at Wang Fulai calmly: "County Magistrate Wang, how long will it take you to smooth the process?"
"This is very quick. It won't take long. No, I'm going out now just to go to the Finance Bureau for investigation." Wang Fulai said with a smile.
"Okay, then County Magistrate Wang will go and do some work first, so I won't disturb him." Qiao Liang stood up.
"County Magistrate Qiao, let's find a time to sit down and have a good time next time." Wang Fulai said with a smile.
"Okay." Qiao Liang smiled.
After coming out of Wang Fulai's office and watching Wang Fulai leave, the smile on Qiao Liang's face slowly disappeared. Damn it, this Wang Fulai is a smiling tiger. Such a person is much more difficult to deal with than Shang Ke.
When it got dark, He Qingqing rushed back from the pastoral area and came to Qiao Liang's office immediately. Qiao Liang immediately asked: "How is it? Are the villagers' mood okay?"
"It's okay now. I explained to the villagers that the compensation for returning farmland to grassland will definitely be paid, but it will be paid later, which temporarily appeased the villagers." He Qingqing said, looked at Qiao Liang, and said with a wry smile, "County Magistrate Qiao, I have said what I said. If the villagers don't get the compensation later, they will call me a liar."
"Not only will you be called a liar, but the people will no longer even trust our work." Qiao Liang murmured.
"County Magistrate Qiao, what did County Magistrate Wang say?" He Qingqing asked with concern.
"What else can he say? I'm sure he is looking for excuses to deal with me." Qiao Liang snorted coldly.
"County Magistrate Qiao, what should we do?" He Qingqing asked anxiously.
"Just do whatever you want." Qiao Liang pouted, "Anyway, the compensation for returning farmland to grass must be paid out no matter what. If County Magistrate Wang doesn't let go, then I will go to his office and refuse to leave. If you really can’t do it, you can only risk your shame and act shamelessly.”
He Qingqing was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help laughing and said: "County Magistrate Qiao, it seems that as a leader now, you have to be able to cheat."
"I can be shameless by cheating for the benefit of the people." Qiao Liang grinned and looked at the time. It was already past 8 p.m., and called to He Qingqing, "Come on, my stomach is growling. Let's go have dinner."
The two of them drove onto the street. Qiao Liang looked at the restaurants on both sides of the street. He suddenly heard He Qingqing say: "This County Magistrate Wang seems to be a dishonest person. He went to nightclubs when he first took office."
"What did you say?" Qiao Liang didn't hear clearly.
"County Magistrate Qiao, look, that's not Magistrate Wang. He went to nightclubs when he first came to Liangbei and I said he must be a crooked person. Hmm, he's probably a stinky man as well." He Qingqing said.
Qiao Liang looked in the direction pointed by He Qingqing and saw that on the left was Daliang Evernight City, the only nightclub in Liangbei County. The person who just got off the car was really Wang Fulai, and the Highlander on the other side was also very... Conspicuous.
Qiao Liang rolled his eyes, drove the car forward, and stopped directly in front of a hotel next to the nightclub.
"County Magistrate Qiao, do we want to eat here?" He Qingqing said blankly.
"That's right, just eat here so you don't have to run away again." Qiao Liang nodded and turned around to see that Wang Fulai's figure had disappeared at the door of the nightclub.
The two walked into the restaurant and sat down, ordering a few side dishes. Because it was close to the nightclub, the place seemed quite noisy, and there were many young people with colorful hair in the restaurant. At first glance, they looked like gangsters on the ground. , smoking cigarettes casually in the room, making it full of smoke.
As a woman, He Qingqing obviously didn't like such an environment. She frowned and said to Qiao Liang: "County Magistrate Qiao, why do you suddenly want to eat here? It's so noisy here."
"Just get used to it." Qiao Liang chuckled.
He Qingqing looked at Qiao Liang in confusion, feeling that Qiao Liang was a little weird.
Qiao Liang was looking outside at this time. He deliberately chose a position near the door. From his perspective, he could just see the parking lot at the entrance of the nightclub. Wang Fulai's Highlander was within his sight. .
During meal time, Qiao Liang and He Qingqing chatted. After the two of them finished eating, Qiao Liang looked at the time and said to He Qingqing: "Director He, you go back first, I have to do something else. "
He Qingqing glanced at Qiao Liang after hearing this. She couldn't tell that Qiao Liang had been a little absent-minded since eating. It seemed that... Qiao Liang had become a little distracted after seeing Wang Fulai.
"County Magistrate Qiao, I'll leave first."
He Qingqing took a taxi back first, while Qiao Liang returned to the car, opened the window a crack, sat in the driver's seat and silently stared at the door of the nightclub.
"Damn it, since I have nothing to do tonight, I will just spend the whole night with this guy named Wang." Qiao Liang picked up a cigarette and lit it up. This Wang Fulai came to the nightclub as soon as he took office. Maybe, he can give him Create some surprise?
The cold wind blew in from the window, and Qiao Liang couldn't help shivering. She quickly wrapped her coat tightly, and while looking outside, she cursed secretly in her heart. She was wasting her time here at night in such a winter. I hope Don't gain anything at all.
