It was already very late after drinking with Sun Yong. Qiao Liang went directly to rest after washing up.
The next morning, Qiao Liang came to the office as usual. After reading the day's newspaper, he inadvertently opened the drawer and frowned slightly.
After thinking for a moment, Qiao Liang called Fu Minghai in, "Xiao Fu, have you ever opened my drawer?"
"No." Fu Minghai shook his head and looked at Qiao Liang doubtfully, "County Magistrate, what's wrong?"
"Nothing." Qiao Liang waved his hand, feeling a little confused. Could it be that he remembered it wrong?
It turns out that when Qiao Liang opened the drawer at this moment, he remembered that the top item was a book, but now the top item was a document, and the order was a bit messed up.
Because there were no valuables in the drawer, Qiao Liang thought about it for a moment and didn't care about it.
Time passed in the afternoon, and Qiao Liang went to the county hotel to participate in the activity of Donal Aluminum Group donating poverty alleviation funds to Songbei County. This is an epitome of Donal Aluminum Group, as a provincial state-owned enterprise, supporting local poverty alleviation work.
Wu Jiang, chairman of the Dong Aluminum Group, will personally attend this afternoon's event, so the main leaders in the county, such as Miao Peilong and Qiao Liang, will also participate. After all, where is Wujiang's level, the county leaders will undoubtedly not Dare to neglect.
In addition, Xu Honggang, deputy secretary of the city, will also make a special trip to attend the donation ceremony.
Xu Honggang arrived in Songbei an hour in advance, but Qiao Liang did not receive the relevant notice. Instead, after arriving at the county hotel, Qiao Liang saw Xu Honggang chatting and laughing with Miao Peilong in the reception room.
Although Qiao Liang has some different views on Xu Honggang because of Ye Xinyi's incident, after all, Xu Honggang was his old leader and had a favor for him. Qiao Liang's respect for Xu Honggang is still indispensable, so Qiao Liang Still, he took the initiative to say hello to Xu Honggang.
Xu Honggang saw Qiao Liang smiling and nodding in greeting. He didn't know if it was Qiao Liang's illusion. Qiao Liang felt that Xu Honggang's smile was a bit unfamiliar and contained some meaning that he couldn't decipher.
Officials from the county arrived one after another, and it was not until Ye Xinyi also entered the reception room that Qiao Liang noticed a slight change in Xu Honggang's expression. However, Xu Honggang quickly returned to normal, and he could not see anything strange in front of others.
At this time, Miao Peilong answered the phone, stood up and said, "Chairman Wu is arriving soon. Let's go out to greet him."
Xu Honggang nodded slightly and stood up. Although Wu Jiang was only the chairman of a state-owned enterprise, the other party was one level higher than him in terms of rank. Xu Honggang should also go out to greet him.
The group of people arrived at the entrance of the county hotel, and soon the Wujiang car arrived.
Xu Honggang and Miao Peilong were the first to step forward to shake hands with Wu Jiang. They exchanged simple greetings. When it was Qiao Liang's turn, just as Qiao Liang was about to introduce himself, Wu Jiang smiled and said, "County Chief Qiao, I have admired your name for a long time. "
Qiao Liang was stunned for a moment, and then said quickly, "Dr. Wu, your words really frightened me."
"Haha, will you?" Wu Jiang looked at Qiao Liang with a half-smile, "I heard that County Magistrate Qiao showed his sharpness and made outstanding achievements after coming to Songbei."
"Uh..." Qiao Liang was at a loss for words when he heard this. He didn't know how to respond. Wu Jiang's words didn't sound like a good thing. It seemed like he was carrying a gun and a stick. Damn it, he didn't seem to have offended the other party, right?
While Qiao Liang was thinking, Wu Jiang had already crossed Qiao Liang and shook hands with Ye Xinyi who was beside Qiao Liang. Suddenly, Qiao Liang suddenly came back to his senses. Could it be because of Huang Hongmei's case?
Yes, it must be because of this matter. Qiao Liang felt certain in his heart that he had been pushing the county bureau to investigate Huang Hongmei's case before, and he probably knew about it when he came to Wujiang. Therefore, although the two had never dealt with each other formally before, Wu Jiang was afraid that he had already had a problem with him.
Guessing the reason, Qiao Liang couldn't help but curl her lips and thought to herself that this Wujiang is not a good bird either. As the old saying goes, if the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, how can this Wujiang be so good if he can teach a son like Wu Changsheng?
The group of people stayed at the door for a while and soon entered the hotel. Ye Xinyi walked beside Qiao Liang and asked in a low voice, "That Chairman Wu seems to have a prejudice against you?"
"Well, it should be." Qiao Liang nodded and said, "It should be related to his son's case. I'll tell you later."
The two exchanged words in a low voice, but they didn't know that Xu Honggang had been paying attention to Ye Xinyi. He saw Ye Xinyi and Qiao Liang whispering to each other. It was obvious that the two of them were just communicating normally, but in Xu Honggang's eyes, they were acting very intimately. In this way, Xu Honggang clenched his fists subconsciously and looked at Qiao Liang with gritted teeth.
Entering the hotel venue, with the arrival of Wu Jiang, the donation ceremony officially began.
The ceremony was presided over by Miao Peilong. After Xu Honggang gave a speech, Wu Jiang took the stage to speak on behalf of Dong Aluminum Group.
This time, Dong Aluminum Group donated 20 million in poverty alleviation funds to Songbei County for poverty alleviation work in Songbei County. This is the largest poverty alleviation fund Songbei County has received so far from a single enterprise donation.
Wu Jiang delivered a passionate speech above, talking about how Dong Aluminum Group, as a provincial state-owned enterprise rooted in Songbei, should play a leading role to better integrate into the overall economic development of Songbei and benefit the local people...
The donation ceremony was carried out according to the established procedures. After the ceremony, the county hosted a dinner to entertain Wu Jiang and his party.
Xu Honggang left after attending the donation ceremony. Qiao Liang originally didn't want to attend tonight's dinner, but he was called by Miao Peilong.
In the private room of the county hotel, Miao Peilong looked at Qiao Liang with a smile, "County Chief Qiao, Director Wu said he wanted to have a good chat with you tonight, how could you slip away?"
"Secretary Miao, I have other matters." Qiao Liangpi said with a smile.
"You can put off other things first. Our task tonight is to accompany Chairman Wu." Miao Peilong said.
"Well, that's what Secretary Miao said." Qiao Liang said insincerely, turned to look at Wu Jiang, and said with a smile, "I must give Chairman Wu a toast later and thank Chairman Wu for his support of our poverty alleviation work in Songbei. "
"County Magistrate Qiao, I'm afraid I can't afford the wine you're toasting." Wu Jiang sat on a chair and the old man said quietly.
Hearing this, Qiao Liang's smile froze. Wu Jiang's words were a bit unpleasant, and even made people a little embarrassed. However, Qiao Liang couldn't get angry due to the other party's identity.
Taking a deep breath, Qiao Liang forced a smile on his face and said, "Chairman Wu is joking. You are the leader, and I respect you as it should be."
"It seems that I still exist in County Magistrate Qiao's eyes. I thought County Magistrate Qiao looked down on me." Wu Jiang glanced at Qiao Liang with a smile, "County Magistrate Qiao, I have a saying that is not very nice. I don't know whether to say it properly or not. .”
Damn it, haven't you said enough nasty things today? Qiao Liang cursed in his heart and said, "Chairman Wu, just say it, I will humbly accept your teachings."
"I don't take the teachings seriously, so as a person who has experienced it, I will give County Magistrate Qiao a few words of advice as a junior." Wu Jiang glanced at Qiao Liang lightly and said, "County Magistrate Qiao, we ancients pay attention to harmony, I believe You also understand what it means. If a person is too sharp, he will bring disaster to himself sooner or later. The words of the ancients can be said to be good advice. County Magistrate Qiao, you must remember it."
"Thank you, Mr. Wu, for your guidance." Qiao Liang said lightly, looking a little unhappy.
Next, the dinner continued. Qiao Liang was really angry with Wu Jiang and made up his mind. If the other party continued to rely on his old age and said ugly things because of his high rank, he would definitely fight back. Damn it, I'm so angry. The worst case scenario is to walk away.
Qiao Liang's face didn't look good, but fortunately Wu Jiang didn't say anything else. He was a department-level cadre after all, and he was a bit self-reliant on his status.
After the dinner, Qiao Liang was the first to stand up and say goodbye, and left quickly, not wanting to stay any longer.
"It seems that County Magistrate Qiao didn't listen to Director Wu's kind words." Miao Peilong looked at Qiao Liang's back and said instigatingly.
"Young man, he will have to suffer sooner or later." Wu Jiang snorted and asked again, "By the way, who did you say was replaced as the county bureau chief?"
"Cai Minghai, that's County Magistrate Qiao. Now he's afraid that the other party will re-investigate the son's case. Magistrate Qiao was holding on to this case before," Miao Peilong said.
"If I remember correctly, this Cai Minghai came from the provincial department, right?" Wu Jiang frowned.
"Yes, that's right." Miao Peilong nodded.
Wu Jiang said nothing with a sullen face. He remembered that he had tried to transfer Cai Minghai through connections in the province before, but failed in the end. It seemed that Lin Qingping, the head of the provincial department, had come forward to stop this. It seemed that Cai Minghai's background was not good. Simple.
Wu Jiang had some misjudgments on this matter and had no idea that Qiao Liang was causing trouble here.
After thinking about it, Wu Jiang said, "Let Jiang Hui clean up the tail. As long as there is no evidence, he will not be able to investigate no matter how hard he investigates."
Miao Peilong frowned slightly when he heard this, hesitated for a moment, and said nothing more. He didn't want to get too involved in this matter and give Jiang Hui a headache later.
In the county compound, after Qiao Liang came out of the hotel, he did not go back to the dormitory immediately, but came to the office.
After sitting in the office for a while, Qiao Liang picked up a cigarette and lit it.
Qiao Liang doesn't smoke much these days. He only smokes a few cigarettes to relieve his boredom when he feels irritable or unhappy.
Sitting on a chair and puffing away smoke, Qiao Liang thought about Huang Hongmei's case, with a hint of evil in his eyes. What Wu Jiang said at the dinner just now, Qiao Liang couldn't understand what the other party meant. The so-called advice was actually Warning, the other party was warning him not to touch the Huang Hongmei case again!
Damn it, if you don't let me do anything, I will still have to get to the bottom of it! Qiao Liang's eyes are gloomy, he has such a temperament, he will never give in or compromise on issues of principle!
