Qiao Liang nodded: "So, County Magistrate Ding doesn't know that you came to Jiangzhou today?"
Yu Jiaming nodded: "Yes, I told the three bosses not to mention my coming in front of County Magistrate Ding."
"Why aren't you suitable to attend the dinner?"
"Haha, let's not talk about this anymore. Come on, Chief Qiao, I'll toast you with another drink." Yu Jiaming raised his glass.
Seeing that Yu Jiaming was speaking vaguely, Qiao Liang realized that there must be a hidden meaning in it, and thought about it while clinking glasses with Yu Jiaming.
After a while Qiao Liang said: "Secretary Zhuang, how is your relationship with County Magistrate Ding?"
Yu Jiaming smiled bitterly, then shook his head and sighed.
"What? You don't have a good relationship?" Qiao Liang said.
Yu Jiaming nodded and said depressedly: "County Magistrate Ding doesn't like me."
"Why? Is it because of work, or..."
"This..." Xi Jiaming hesitated, as if he felt it was inappropriate to criticize the leader behind his back.
Seeing Yu Jiaming's behavior, Qiao Liang smiled: "If Secretary Zhuang treats me as an outsider, he won't have to say anything."
"No, no, how could I think that Section Chief Qiao is an outsider? Today I had a hearty drink with you and had such a lively chat. I feel that I have become much closer to you." Xi Jiaming said hurriedly.
"Actually, I think that's the case. I feel that Secretary Zhuang has a very lively temper and a personality similar to mine. He is a trustworthy person," Qiao Liang said.
Hearing what Qiao Liang said, Yu Jiaming was very happy. He hesitated and said, "Actually, County Magistrate Ding doesn't like me, mainly for reasons other than work."
"Oh..." Qiao Liang looked at Yu Jiaming with interest.
Seeing that Qiao Liang seemed very interested, Yu Jiaming simply let go and said, "Let's put it this way, because some time ago, Secretary Tang of the municipal party committee and Minister Chu went to Sanjiang, and County Magistrate Ding immediately became famous in the county.
The top leaders of Shaoxiang Town have taken the initiative to seduce County Magistrate Ding, but I have never made any move..."
"Oh, why are you silent?"
Yu Jiaming lit a cigarette and said as he smoked: "Chief Qiao, I'm going to tell you something that hurts my heart, but you must keep it a secret."
"This is natural, don't worry." Qiao Liang nodded solemnly.
Yu Jiaming said under the influence of wine: "The main reason is that I can't stand what County Magistrate Ding has done recently, especially since he has no main leaders of the county government. When inspecting the villages and towns, he often said some things that were very dissatisfied with County Magistrate Zhang.
With respect..."
After listening to Xi Jiaming's words, Qiao Liang became more fond of him. He was a good buddy and was worth cultivating.
"Is this why you said you are not suitable to attend County Magistrate Ding's dinner party? Are you afraid that Magistrate Ding will make you look bad in front of the three bosses?"
Yu Jiaming nodded, then shook his head: "The main reason is because they are looking for County Magistrate Ding to handle matters, and it is inconvenient for me to be there."
Hearing what Xi Jiaming said, Qiao Liang seemed to realize something.
Then the two continued drinking.
After a while, Xi Jiaming's cell phone rang and he answered the call.
"Oh, you've finished eating. Now you're going to play cards in the tea room of Kaiyuan Hotel. He proposed it... Okay, I'll go back directly after eating. You stay with him and try to lose more. The more you lose, the better things will be.
Let’s do it…” Qi Jiaming said drunkenly.
Qiao Liang immediately heard the meaning of Yu Jiaming's words, and suddenly felt ecstatic in his heart. Damn it, the chance to deal with Ding Lei has come.
This opportunity came suddenly, but it seemed inevitable.
Qiao Liang felt a little excited and her mind was spinning rapidly.
After Yu Jiaming answered the phone, he continued drinking and chatting with Qiao Liang. Qiao Liang dealt with it absentmindedly while thinking about what he should do.
After drinking and eating, Qiao Liang put Xi Jiaming in the car and left, then took out his cell phone and called Lu Qian.
"Director Lu Da, what are you doing here?" Qiao Liang said.
"I just finished overtime at the bureau and I'm so tired," Lu Qian said.
"The leader has to work overtime on weekends. It's so hard. On behalf of Section Chief Qiao, I would like to express my condolences to you."
"Hmph, condolences, what are you doing?"
"I just finished drinking and wanted to find a place to drink tea to relieve my hangover."
"Who are you having tea with?"
"With Section Chief Qiao."
"Pfft -" Lu Qian laughed, "You are drinking with yourself. I'll give you a chance to invite the beautiful director to tea."
"Why should I invite you? Can't you please me?"
"No, don't you want to express your condolences to me? Then just invite me to tea."
"Uh, so domineering, okay then." Qiao Liang looked helpless and secretly happy.
"Where to have tea?"
"If you want to invite the beautiful director to have tea, the place cannot be better. Let's go to the tea room of Kaiyuan Hotel?"
"Okay, see you later."
Half an hour later, Qiao Liang arrived at the tea room of Kaiyuan Hotel first. He walked in and walked around for a while. When he walked to the door of a single room, he heard the sound of pushing signs from inside, mixed with voices: "Good evening, County Magistrate Ding."
Lucky..."
Qiao Liang nodded, then pointed to the single room next door and said to the waiter: "I want this one."
The waiter opened the room, Qiao Liang went in, ordered a pot of tea, and then sent a text message to Lu Qian and told her the room number.
After a while, Lu Qian came, and the two started drinking tea and chatting.
At this time, the sound of mahjong being played next door came over.
Lu Qian frowned: "This teahouse also has mahjong."
"You can play mahjong in teahouses these days. Is there anything strange about it?" Qiao Liang said casually.
Lu Qian nodded and continued drinking tea.
After a while, a voice came from the next door: "Haha, I'm crazy again."
Qiao Liang heard clearly that it was Ding Lei's voice.
Lu Qian and Ding Lei were not familiar with each other, so naturally they couldn't tell.
Then came the sighs of several people: "Hey, I lost again, I'm really unlucky tonight..."
"Come on, come on, pay me, 10,000 per person." Ding Lei said happily.
Lu Qian's brows jumped: "Damn, there's gambling next door."
"Yes, it seems the amount is quite large." Qiao Liang frowned.
"Hmph, I'll catch them." Lu Qian then stood up.
Qiao Liang hurriedly stopped her: "Stop-"
"What?" Lu Qian stared at Qiao Liang.
Qiao Liang smiled: "You are so tired from working overtime, why do you still need to do something as trivial as catching a gambler? Besides, many gamblers are desperadoes. If you go to catch gamblers, if you encounter resistance, you
Are you sure one person can subdue four of them?"
Lu Qian was startled: "Isn't there still you?"
"It's your job to catch gamblers, why should I participate? What if I get hurt by them?" Qiao Liang rolled his eyes.
"Bah, you coward." Lu Qian said dissatisfied.
"Actually, even if I'm not a coward, if I cooperate with you in the police-civilian cooperation, the two of us may not be able to subdue the four of them. If they run away, how bad will it be for you, the chief director, to lose face if word gets out?" Qiao Liang said with a smile.
Lu Qian heard what Qiao Liang said made sense, blinked, and then walked out: "Let me see the room number..."
Qiao Liang chuckled.
Then Lu Qian came back and sat down, took out her cell phone and started dialing.
After a while, Lu Qian said: "Public Security Brigade, I am Lu Qian. There is a group of people gathering in the tea room of Kaiyuan Hotel to gamble. Come over and catch me right away..."
Then Lu Qian said the room number.
Then Lu Qian put away her phone and smiled: "Just wait and see the excitement, people from the security brigade will be here soon."
