Seeing Xi Lan looking at the surrounding environment, Qiao Liang couldn't help but smile and asked, "Mr. Xi, what do you think of the environment here?"
"It's very good. This place is like a natural oxygen bar. After staying in a big city for a long time, coming to a place like this is like returning to nature, and I feel relaxed." Xi Lan said with a smile.
"The environment here is indeed very good. Mr. Xi came here to build a factory and can breathe fresh air every day." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
Hearing Qiao Liang's words, Xi Lan turned to look at Qiao Liang and said, "County Chief Qiao, you are really a sales expert. With a county chief like you, it will be difficult for Songbei County not to develop."
"Mr. Xi, what I said is true." Qiao Liang laughed, "Mr. Xi, you have seen it for yourself when you came here. The natural ecological environment here is unique in Songbei and the only one in Jiangzhou. The national nature reserve is right here, and we have also invited relevant agricultural experts to conduct research and inspections. It is very suitable for bee breeding here, so Mr. Xi doesn’t have to worry about the supply of nectar here when he comes back."
Qiao Liang said this, and Xi Lan nodded, "County Magistrate Qiao, I will seriously consider it. I will take people from the company to inspect it again later. If possible, I will definitely invest in building a factory. After all, this is also to support the development of my hometown." Well."
"Okay, we wholeheartedly welcome Mr. Xi to invest in Songbei." Qiao Liang said.
The group of people walked around the neighborhood again, and because it was getting dark, the group returned to the county. Qiao Liang wanted to host a banquet for Xi Lan, but Xi Lan declined because she had to go back to the city in the evening and had no plans to go there. Stay longer in Songbei.
After seeing off Xi Lan, Qiao Liang returned to the county compound. He had dinner in the canteen of the county compound, then went back to the office to handle official duties for a while, and then returned to the dormitory around eight o'clock.
A few days passed, and Lu Qian had returned from abroad. Qiao Liang also took the time to go to the city and have dinner with Lu Qian.
The result of leading the team abroad this time was not very good. Qiao Liang could see that Lu Qian was a little depressed, because when she first went out, Lu Qian was full of confidence. According to Lu Qian, the operation originally went smoothly, but the other party seemed to Suddenly they got the news and disappeared. Although Lu Qian and others were assisted by local colleagues abroad, handling cases abroad was not as convenient as at home. Many things were not handled smoothly, and in the end they still failed to catch the killer.
Seeing that Lu Qian was very depressed, Qiao Liang comforted her with a few words. After all, she had worked hard on this matter and the result could not be forced.
On this day, the deputy secretary of the province, Su Huaxin, was going to Songbei for inspection. According to Su Huaxin's itinerary, Su Huaxin arrived in Songbei in the afternoon, and the relevant reception work in the county had been prepared in advance, so in the morning, the county The work is still business as usual.
At around ten o'clock in the morning, Jiang Xiuxiu went to Qiao Liang's office and reported Zhang Jie's case to Qiao Liang.
Just as Jiang Xiuxiu was reporting to Qiao Liang, Executive Deputy County Magistrate Zhang Honghua came to Miao Peilong's office.
Miao Peilong had just finished a phone call with Xu Honggang and saw Zhang Honghua coming over. Miao Peilong asked Zhang Honghua to sit down and asked, "Honghua, what's the matter?"
"Secretary Miao, Jiang Xiuxiu is moving very quickly. My sister Zhang Jie's case will continue to be investigated by her. I'm worried..." Zhang Honghua didn't go on. He believed that Miao Peilong understood what he meant.
When Miao Peilong heard that Zhang Honghua was concerned about his sister Zhang Jie, he frowned slightly and said, "Honghua, didn't Lao Gao help you think of a way before? He asked you to try to start with Jiang Xiuxiu's husband. You haven’t tried it?”
"I'm thinking of a way, but this has to be a step-by-step process. It can't be accomplished overnight. It will take some time." Zhang Honghua smiled bitterly.
"Then let's work harder. Now we can only find a breakthrough from Jiang Xiuxiu's husband. Otherwise, Jiang Xiuxiu is also an inexperienced master who can't even speak to me." Miao Peilong curled his lips and mentioned
He was a little annoyed by Jiang Xiuxiu. This woman had not pleased him before.
"Secretary Miao, I'm wondering if you can step in to suppress Jiang Xiuxiu and delay the case for a while." Zhang Honghua glanced at Miao Peilong and said carefully.
"Do you think my coming forward will be useful?" Miao Peilong looked at Zhang Honghua, "Jiang Xiuxiu is following Qiao Liang now. If my words could have any effect on her, your sister Zhang Jie would have been released a long time ago."
"Secretary Miao..."
"Honghua, let's talk about this later. You also know that Secretary Su from the province is coming to Songbei for inspection today. I'm busy with this now." Miao Peilong waved his hand to interrupt Zhang Honghua.
Hearing what Miao Peilong said, Zhang Honghua's mouth twitched and he said in his heart that you are too busy. The only ones who are really busy are the staff below. You, Miao Peilong, are just sitting in the office and talking.
Before Zhang Honghua could say anything, Miao Peilong had already stood up and went to make a phone call. He didn't know who to call, but he did not avoid Zhang Honghua. After all, Zhang Honghua was his former butler, and Zhang Honghua knew many things about him.
, Miao Peilong had nothing to hide from Zhang Honghua.
Miao Peilong's mind at this moment was indeed focused on Su Huaxin's upcoming inspection in Songbei. He had no intention of caring about Zhang Honghua's sister Zhang Jie. His intention in this matter was very obvious, which was to let Zhang Honghua himself
He went to solve it, but his attitude at the moment made Zhang Honghua a little frustrated.
Seeing Miao Peilong talking on the phone, Zhang Honghua stood up silently and left Miao Peilong's office.
In fact, the reason why Zhang Honghua came to see Miao Peilong now was because he was always aware of Jiang Xiuxiu's movements through a case handler from the county prosecutor's office, and he was also well aware of the progress of his sister Zhang Jie's case. Because of this, Zhang Honghua knew that his sister Zhang
Jie's current mental state is very bad, and as the investigators find more and more evidence, although her sister Zhang Jie insists not to reveal the interests related to him, there is no guarantee that her sister will one day
I can't hold it any longer.
Just now he saw Jiang Xiuxiu coming to Qiao Liang, and he was secretly worried, so he hurried to Miao Peilong's place, but Miao Peilong's attitude chilled him.
After all, it is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others. Zhang Honghua sighed. He could not blame Miao Peilong, and he did not dare to blame Miao Peilong. Without Miao Peilong, he would not be where he is today, even if he is now the executive deputy of the county.
, but as long as there is no support from Miao Peilong, it will be difficult for him to continue as the executive deputy, because he is different from Qiao Liang. Qiao Liang relied on his own efforts and the support of others to reach the position of county magistrate, and he can
Today, it is entirely due to Miao Peilong's cultivation. Miao Peilong can help him up and get him down. He himself does not have any background in the city.
As for his sister Zhang Jie's case, it is not that Zhang Honghua cannot understand Miao Peilong's attitude. Because this matter is not directly related to Miao Peilong, Miao Peilong is not willing to quarrel with Qiao Liang over his sister's case. After all,
, or because Miao Peilong was unwilling to put in all his efforts, otherwise as the leader of Songbei, how could Miao Peilong be completely helpless against Jiang Xiuxiu? Miao Peilong just felt that it was not worth it for his sister Zhang Jie.
Zhang Honghua walked downstairs with his thoughts on his mind, and happened to meet Jiang Xiuxiu coming down. The two met face to face. Zhang Honghua glared at each other, a bit jealous of enemies meeting each other, and looked at Jiang Xiuxiu with an ugly expression.
Jiang Xiuxiu pretended that nothing happened, and nodded to Zhang Honghua as usual, "Hello, County Magistrate Zhang."
"I'm not good, Jiang Jian, please don't call me that, I can't bear it." Zhang Honghua snorted coldly, "I think you don't even consider me as the county magistrate."
"County Magistrate Zhang is joking, you are you, and your sister's case is two different things." Jiang Xiuxiu said with a smile.
Zhang Honghua almost lost his temper when he heard that Jiang Xiuxiu refused to open a certain pot. He snorted again and walked past Jiang Xiuxiu.
Seeing Zhang Honghua's reaction, Jiang Xiuxiu shrugged. Offending Zhang Honghua was inevitable, and Jiang Xiuxiu didn't expect the other party to have a good impression of her.
In the office, after Qiao Liang sent Jiang Xiuxiu away, he had time to pick up today's newspaper and read it. After briefly browsing today's Jiangdong Daily, Qiao Liang picked up Jiangzhou Daily and read it, and accidentally saw the newspaper. Qiao Liang let out a light sigh when a missing person notice came out. The person who signed the missing person notice was Xi Lan.
Could this Xi Lan be Xi Lan, the general manager of Shencheng Junlan Trading? Qiao Liang thought about it.
After thinking about it, Qiao Liang called Fu Minghai in and asked, "Xiao Fu, please give me Mr. Xi's phone number."
"Which Mr. Xi?" Fu Minghai didn't react for a moment.
"Who else is Mr. Xi who is interested in the honey processing factory?" Qiao Liang said.
When Fu Minghai heard this, he quickly took out his mobile phone and reported Xi Lan's number to Qiao Liang. He said, "Mr. Xi took people from his company to Linnei Village yesterday to inspect it. I don't know if they want to invest."
"The fact that she can bring people over for inspection again shows that she still has a strong intention." Qiao Liang said with a smile, while staring at the missing person notice in the newspaper on the table, and at the same time called Xi Lan.
When the call was connected, Qiao Liang first said hello to Xi Lan, and then said, "Mr. Xi, I saw a missing person notice in Jiangzhou Daily today. It was posted by a woman named Xi Lan. This person cannot be Xi. It’s always you, right?”
"County Magistrate Qiao, it's me." Xi Lan smiled, "I didn't expect you, Magistrate Qiao, would notice such a small thing."
"Haha, I have to take some time to read the newspaper every day." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
Before Qiao Liang could say anything, Xi Lan, who was on the other end of the phone, didn't know what to think of. He suddenly thought of it and said, "County Magistrate Qiao, I have a small matter that I would like to ask Magistrate Qiao for help. I don't know if Magistrate Qiao is inconvenient."
"What's the matter?" Qiao Liang was stunned.
"Okay, County Magistrate Qiao, are you free now? I happen to be at the Songbei Hotel, and I'll go find you now," Xi Lan said.
"Okay, I'm free in the morning, you can come directly." Qiao Liang nodded.
"Okay, I'll be there right away." Xi Lan's expression perked up.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door of Qiao Liang's office. Qiao Liang turned around and saw Tang Xiaofei standing at the door.
