After a while, several soldiers walked into the office under the leadership of the county party committee cadres.
"Are they Secretary Sun and County Magistrate Ji?"
The leading soldier saluted.
Then hand over your ID and letter of introduction.
"My name is Zhang Bowen, and I come from a certain military region. This is our ID."
"A certain military region..."
Secretary Sun is a little confused.
I don’t understand why comrades from the military region come to their small county.
He took the certificate and the letter of introduction and looked at it a few times.
After confirming the other party's identity, he asked politely.
"Comrade Zhang Bowen, I wonder what brings you here?"
Zhang Bowen said.
"We are here for Comrade Cao Weidong."
Upon hearing the three words Cao Weidong, Secretary Sun immediately panicked.
Why is it Cao Weidong again?
Is he still familiar with the military leaders?
Secretary Sun now wants to open Cao Weidong's head and see how many connections are stuffed inside.
If he had known that the other party had such great abilities, he would have worshiped him as a Buddha.
At the same time, he hated his idiot secretary even more.
If it weren't for this idiot, how could he have gotten into such a lot of trouble?
Zhang Bowen asked doubtfully.
"Secretary Sun, you seem to be very hot. Why are you sweating on your head?"
Secretary Sun was hesitating and speechless.
County Magistrate Ji quickly helped to cover.
"Secretary Sun is really tired from work these days. Just let him take a rest."
"Comrade Zhang Bowen and Comrade Cao Weidong are the directors of our county's biogas plant. I don't know what you have to do with him."
Zhang Bowen smiled slightly and said.
"It's like this. Our chief learned from the leader of the Ministry of Metallurgy that Comrade Cao Weidong developed a unique metal material. Our military region just happened to undertake a national defense mission. Some parts have special requirements for metal materials, so the chief asked
I came to ask Comrade Cao Weidong to see if the special metal material he discovered is suitable."
"Here is a formal letter, County Magistrate Ji, please read it."
As he spoke, he handed over an official letter.
Hearing that it was not about the county, County Magistrate Ji breathed a sigh of relief, took the official letter and read it.
The content of the official letter is very simple, basically the same as what Zhang Bowen said, but the wording is more official and polite.
There is also a seal of a certain military region at the bottom.
It’s bright red and particularly eye-catching.
County Magistrate Ji said quickly.
"No problem, we will definitely cooperate fully. I will ask Comrade Cao Weidong to come here."
The background of a certain military region is not small, and County Magistrate Ji fully and unconditionally supports their requests.
Soon, Cao Weidong arrived.
After hearing what happened, he agreed immediately.
Zhang Bowen shook hands with Cao Weidong and said respectfully.
"Great, thank you for your cooperation. Without further ado, let's set off now. The car is waiting outside."
Cao Weidong was a little surprised: "So urgent?"
Zhang Bowen is a little embarrassed.
"This is the chief's order, because this task is very important, I hope you can understand."
County Magistrate Ji also said: "Comrade Cao Weidong, since the military is in such an emergency, if you can overcome it, then overcome it."
Then he took a step forward, patted Cao Weidong's shoulder gently, and said affectionately.
"We will take care of you when you come back, and we have some good news to tell you."
Cao Weidong knew that they were showing sincerity to keep him.
He smiled and said.
"Okay."
Then he said to Zhang Bowen.
"Since it involves the selection of metal materials, I need to go back and prepare some things first, and then we can set off."
Zhang Bowen said gratefully: "Thank you for your cooperation."
A few people exchanged pleasantries and left the office one after another.
After they all left, Secretary Sun sat down on the sofa, sighed and smiled bitterly.
"Old Ji, I was really hurt by my secretary. I'm so suspicious now... Hey, this is the result of listening to one's own beliefs."
County Magistrate Ji consoled him.
"These were all done by Lu Xingchao and Duan Derui. Now the relevant evidence has been collected... In fact, you were also deceived by them, and it has nothing to do with you."
"Having said that, I am the direct leader after all..."
At this moment, the office door was pushed open again, interrupting Secretary Sun's words.
He looked up and was stunned.
I saw a few young people wearing cadre uniforms walking over from the door.
After they showed their IDs, they said with serious faces.
"Comrade Sun Dingyue, there are some things that require your cooperation in the investigation. Please come with us."
Secretary Sun sighed.
At this moment, his body hunched over a lot.
I was really tricked by my secretary.
.......
On the jeep.
Cao Weidong turned to look at Zhang Bowen and asked.
"I've already come out with you, can you tell me what's going on now?"
Zhang Bowen said with a wry smile.
"Comrade Cao Weidong, I am just a driver. I can't tell you the specific situation. Please wait a little longer and let our leader tell you when the time comes."
He only knew that his leader took a mysterious figure to the Ministry of Metallurgy, and when he came back, he named Cao Weidong and asked them to come over, saying that it involved a key national defense project.
As for the specific details, he is not very clear.
When Cao Weidong heard this, he stopped questioning.
The jeep drove all the way towards Sijiucheng.
However, just when they saw the city in the distance, the driver twisted the steering wheel and drove the jeep directly into the hills of the northern suburbs.
Jeeps shuttle on tree-lined trails in the mountains.
I don’t know how long we drove bumpily, but the jeep stopped in front of a military compound.
There is also a group of armed soldiers guarding the door, and the guards are tight.
"A certain military region is located in such a sheltered place? Deep in the mountains and old forests?"
Cao Weidong asked with a frown.
Zhang Bowen smiled.
"Of course this is not our base. This is the Honggu Research Base. The chief is waiting for you inside."
"Honggu Research Base?"
Cao Weidong was confused again.
You won’t be involved in some confidential research projects, right?
In an instant, he imagined a scenario in which he was forced to sign a confidentiality agreement and then sent to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests for more than ten years to conduct some secret research.
I shivered immediately.
If this happens, all my plans will be messed up.
With random thoughts in his mind, under the leadership of Zhang Bowen, he walked into the Honggu Research Base.
The research base is quite large, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the environment is very good. Under the leadership of Zhang Bowen, they arrived in front of a two-story low building.
"This is the reception room of Honggu Research Base. The chief is waiting for you inside."
Zhang Bowen explained, and then led Cao Weidong into the reception room.
Then he ran a few steps forward, came to an old man in military uniform, and stood up to salute.
"Report to the chief, I have brought Comrade Cao Weidong back and ask for your instructions."
Cao Weidong's eyes swept across the old man in military uniform and landed directly on a middle-aged man in Mao suit next to him.
He was shocked and said excitedly: "Mr. Qian, why are you here?"
