The man was a little stunned when he heard Qiao Liang's words. At this time, a colleague of the man behind him came up and whispered, "He seems to be the new County Magistrate Qiao in the county."
The man woke up most of the time after hearing the news. He stared at Qiao Liang with a look of uncertainty in his eyes, because he had never seen Qiao Liang, and he didn't watch TV news very much. He really didn't know what was happening in the county. What does the new county chief look like?
"Are you sure?" the man asked the men beside him.
"It seems, I took a look at it on the news before and it seemed like a person." His subordinate responded quietly.
Qiao Liang saw the two people muttering there and knew that the other party was doubting his identity. He laughed angrily and said: "What, do I still have to ask Director Sun to testify for me?"
The man was stunned. Seeing Qiao Liang's words, he actually believed it. However, after drinking, his brain reaction was half a beat slower than usual. At this moment, he didn't know what to do and looked at Qiao Liang blankly. .
At this time, a black Volkswagen stopped nearby, and a middle-aged man got out of the back seat. He was Sun Dongchuan, the deputy county magistrate and county bureau chief.
Sun Dongchuan saw Qiao Liang immediately after getting off the car, and walked over quickly: "County Chief Qiao."
"Deputy County Magistrate Sun, you are here." Qiao Liang nodded, a little surprised, because Sun Dongchuan came very quickly.
Seemingly sensing Qiao Liang's surprise, Sun Dongchuan took the initiative to explain: "I was eating nearby just now, and I rushed over after receiving a call from Director Xu."
Qiao Liang nodded slightly and did not dwell on this. He turned to look at the man in the prefecture and said: "Director Sun, the people under you are a little suspicious of my identity. Come and help me testify. I am the county magistrate." It’s not fake.”
Hearing Qiao Liang's words, the man was startled and waved his hands quickly: "No, no, no, County Magistrate Qiao, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that."
"Well, have you confirmed my identity now?" Qiao Liang looked at the other party indifferently.
"Yes." The man wiped the sweat from his forehead. Now he was completely sober from the wine. He said with a smile, "It was just a misunderstanding. Don't take it to heart."
Qiao Liang looked calm. Naturally, he could not argue with this person. However, the other person came to enforce the law smelling of alcohol. Qiao Liang was extremely angry about this. He looked at Sun Dongchuan aside and said: "Deputy County Magistrate Sun, your man is Are you coming to enforce the law after drinking like this?"
When Sun Dongchuan heard this, his face looked a little unsightly. He looked at the man with a stern look. Before Sun Dongchuan could ask, the man had already hurriedly explained: "Bureau Sun, it's like this. I'm not on duty tonight. I'm already on duty." I got off work, so I went out to drink with friends. The station just had to go on a mission and lacked police personnel, so they called me at the last minute. I didn’t drink during work hours."
After hearing the man's explanation, Sun Dongchuan's expression softened and he said to Qiao Liang: "County Magistrate Qiao, do you think this is not a violation of the regulations?"
"If that's the case, it's understandable." Qiao Liang nodded. If what the other party said was true, there was no need for Qiao Liang to hold on.
What Qiao Liang wanted to rectify now was undoubtedly the problem of Honghui Hotel, so he told Sun Dongchuan what he had just seen and heard, and then asked: "Deputy County Magistrate Sun, do you know about the situation of the gaming venue in Honghui Hotel?" ?”
"I have never heard of this." Sun Dongchuan shook his head and said seriously, "If it is really like what you said, then we will definitely crack down hard and resolutely ban it."
"Is it like I said, just open the door and go in to check and you will know?" Qiao Liang chuckled, "But I saw that your people went in and walked around for a while and then came out. I don't know if they were really checking or just going through the motions.
one time."
After hearing what Qiao Liang said, Sun Dongchuan looked at the people at the prefecture and asked, "Have you gone in to check?"
"We went in to check, but they were all closed and not open for business," said the man, who was leading the team tonight.
"You can ask them to open the door after it's closed. Go in and check and you'll know." Qiao Liang smiled and pointedly said, "They closed the door in a timely manner. Before the inspection people arrived, they closed the door tightly.
"
Sun Dongchuan was stunned when he heard this. He obviously couldn't answer this. He glanced at Qiao Liang calmly. Sun Dongchuan said to the people in the room, "You should contact the person in charge of the nightclub immediately and open the door for you to check in."
"Okay." The man nodded in agreement, not daring to be perfunctory in front of Sun Dongchuan.
Soon the door of the nightclub was opened. Because the guests had been cleared out just now, the nightclub was empty now.
Qiao Liang followed the people inside and went directly to the stairs leading to the second underground floor, saying: "Go down from here, open the door and check it out."
"Do as County Magistrate Qiao wants." Sun Dongchuan waved to the man leading the team.
"Go and open the door." The man leading the group said to a manager of the nightclub.
"I don't have a key. This second underground floor is not our nightclub." The manager's eyes flickered and he shook his head.
"It's not your place?" Qiao Liang looked at the other party amusedly, "Then who is responsible for operating the second underground floor?"
"We don't know that. We are only responsible for contracting the underground floor." The manager shook his head.
When Qiao Liang heard what the other party said, he looked at the man leading the team and asked: "Go and check the industrial and commercial registration to see who the person in charge of the operation is. Call the person over. If that doesn't work, just break down the door and go in."
When the man heard the words, he looked at Sun Dongchuan first. When he saw Sun Dongchuan nodded slightly, the man followed the instructions.
Not long after, the man came over to report: "County Magistrate Qiao, Director Sun, we have contacted the industrial and commercial side. It is true that the person in charge of the nightclub and the second underground floor is not the same, and the second underground floor is registered with the industrial and commercial side.
It’s warehouse storage.”
"Warehouse storage?" Qiao Liang sneered, "Just call someone over and open the door."
Hearing this, the man hesitated for a moment and said with a wry smile: "The other party said that he is not in Songbei and is not free."
"Then call the person with the key to come over." Qiao Liang said coldly.
"County Magistrate Qiao, he hung up the phone before I even finished speaking." The man said helplessly.
"It seems that he refuses to cooperate, so just break down the door and go in." Qiao Liang had a cold look in his eyes and was too lazy to waste any more time.
Qiao Liang gave the order, and the people in the office did as he was told. After forcibly opening the door to the second underground floor, a group of people walked in and immediately saw the things inside.
Qiao Liang looked at Sun Dongchuan and said, "Deputy County Magistrate Sun, do you think what I just said is false?"
"Don't get me wrong, County Magistrate Qiao. I don't doubt what you mean. I just haven't seen it with my own eyes. After all, I don't dare to believe it. I didn't expect someone to be so bold. It's simply too arrogant." Sun Dongchuan looked serious, "This must be done resolutely.
If it is banned, the relevant persons in charge will be detained and severely punished.”
"Okay, with Deputy County Magistrate Sun's attitude, I feel relieved." Qiao Liang nodded, "Deputy County Magistrate Sun, I hope you will personally supervise this matter. I will hear the detailed results later."
"Don't worry, County Magistrate Qiao. To be honest, I was shocked and ashamed when I saw this. As the director, I am responsible for the oversight. If this matter is not investigated and dealt with severely, I will be ashamed of my trust in the organization." Sun Dongchuan said solemnly.
Qiao Liang saw that his goal had been achieved, so he didn't stay any longer and left from the second underground floor.
Sun Dongchuan and Qiao Liang came out together. Because they wanted to stay and supervise the matter personally, Sun Dongchuan did not leave. Qiao Liang and Ling Hongwei left first, and Xu Chan also took the car home alone.
Qiao Liang and Ling Hongwei came here on foot at first, and now they walked back slowly. Ling Hongwei had just held back a lot of words. When he and Qiao Liang were alone, Ling Hongwei said: "County Magistrate Qiao, you Do you think this matter can really be investigated thoroughly?”
"Why, do you think Deputy County Magistrate Sun's statement just now was to deal with me?" Qiao Liang glanced at Ling Hongwei.
Ling Hongwei hesitated for a moment and said, "That's not what I meant. I just think it's not that easy."
"Can't we close a place like that?" Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows.
"The so-called three feet of ice does not freeze in a day. If this underground place can exist for such a long time, the water here may be deeper than we imagined." Ling Hongwei said.
"No matter how deep the water is, I still have to go there. I don't believe there is still a place outside the law in Songbei County," Qiao Liang said.
When Ling Hongwei heard this, he nodded and didn't say anything more. He only heard some things and had no substantive evidence, so he couldn't say anything more.
The two of them walked back along the street they came from, and when they approached the county compound, they separated.
At the Honghui Hotel, Sun Dongchuan stayed until the team was dismissed before going back.
Not long after Sun Dongchuan returned home, there was a knock on the door. When he opened the door and saw Jiang Hui standing outside, Sun Dongchuan was not surprised at all and opened the door to let him in.
"Mr. Jiang, I'm a rare visitor. It's so late, but you still come to my place." Sun Dongchuan looked at Jiang Hui with a smile and asked him to sit down.
"What did County Magistrate Sun say? If I wasn't afraid of disturbing you, I would come to your house and have a drink with you every day." Jiang Hui replied with a smile and put the two bottles of wine he was carrying on the table.
Sun Dongchuan laughed when he heard this and sat on the sofa with his legs crossed: "Mr. Jiang, I know you don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything. If you have anything to do, just tell me."
"County Magistrate Sun, you should know why I'm here." Jiang Hui said with a smile.
"If you are here for tonight's matter, then I can only say that I can't do anything. County Magistrate Qiao is personally watching this matter, and I don't dare to make any small moves under his nose." Sun Dongchuan spread his hands.
"County Magistrate Sun, is there really no room for maneuver?" Jiang Hui frowned.
"No." Sun Dongchuan nodded.
Jiang Hui grinned when he heard this, took out a card from his pocket and put it in front of Sun Dongchuan.
