Liang Jian heard something was wrong in Tang Lei's voice. He must have something to do, so he said, "I'm free." Tang Lei then said, "That's best. I'll wait for you at the Qinhui Tea Garden. See you there."
Liang Jian said: "Brother, it's only afternoon, how about drinking tea?" Government workers like Liang Jian are generally not as comfortable as the leisure class and can drink afternoon tea. They usually go to the teahouse to drink tea after eating
After dinner, it was rest time. It seemed unusual for Tang Lei to invite him to tea at this time.
After Liang Jian came to work in the city from Changhu District, Tang Lei had less contact with him for a time. But this time after the middle school youth class, the relationship became closer again. Hearing Tang Lei's serious words, Liang Jian couldn't refuse.
, and said: "Then I will rush there now."
The sky is a little gloomy, the cold air has not yet arrived, and the entire Jingzhou City seems a little dull.
More than an hour later, Liang Jian got out of the car and walked quickly into the Qinhui Tea Garden. The reason why he walked quickly was because going to the tea garden on a weekday afternoon like this would affect his image if others saw him.
People chew their tongues.
Tang Lei was already sitting in the box, and no one was asked to prepare Kung Fu tea this time. In front of Tang Lei was a simple cup of green tea, and he had already made white tea for Liang Jian. It seemed to be a quick victory.
Liang Jian sat down, looked at Tang Lei, and asked: "Secretary Tang, you invited me out for tea this afternoon. What's going on?" Tang Lei leaned forward and hit his chest on the edge of the table, saying: "Liang Jian, I
Something happened here, you have to help me find a solution!"
Liang Jian saw real sorrow in Tang Lei's eyes and said, "Just tell me, we have been friends for so many years."
Tang Lei said: "A few days ago, our district party secretary Zhou Qitong told me that Mayor Hong asked him to help a person raise some funds. That person is the son of the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, named Ma Rui..."
When Liang Jian heard this, he was shocked. How could the ball he kicked away have anything to do with Tang Lei? He didn't rush and let him speak slowly.
Tang Lei continued: "Secretary Zhou said that funds in the district have been tight recently, so let our town first think of a way to come up with a sum of money, turn it around, and let Ma Rui use it for scientific research first. Waiting for a sum of money from the Bank of China in the district
Once the loan is issued and the district's fiscal funds are relieved, the gap in the town will be filled immediately."
Liang Jian interrupted: "So, you agreed?"
Tang Lei said: "Yes! I gave the town's 2 million to Ma Rui temporarily."
Liang Jian shook his head: "It's so simple, you transferred the town's two million to others?"
Tang Lei said: "Then what can I do? On the one hand, this is the intention of the district party secretary. Although it is my town's money, it is not the district party secretary who has the final say. He can use it however he wants!"
On the other hand, I heard that this has something to do with Mayor Hong. Isn’t Mayor Hong going to be promoted to Municipal Party Committee Secretary soon..."
Liang Jian interjected again: "So, do you think, if you don't do this favor now, when will you wait?"
Tang Lei confessed: "I have this idea. If this will help, if Mayor Hong remembers it, we can make progress faster when we become secretary in the future, right?"
Liang Jian said: "You guys, you just want to flatter me so much!" Tang Lei was a little unconvinced: "If it were you and encountered this situation, what would you do? Should you reject it?"
Liang Jian said: "You are right. I turned it down. At that time, Mayor Hong entrusted me with this matter. However, I did not agree. I felt that if this matter was done, not only would it be
It’s not good for myself, and it won’t be foolproof for Mayor Hong. What if something goes wrong?”
Tang Lei stared at Liang Jian in disbelief: "Liang Jian, did you really reject it at that time? You are so self-aware. If I had known about it at that time, I would rather not have Mayor Hong's favor. Now that something like this has happened
I don’t know what to do anymore? Liang Jian, please give me some advice."
Liang Jian said: "Now, what's going on? He can't get out the money all of a sudden?" Tang Lei glared at Liang Jian and said: "Not only now, but also never. Ma Rui takes this money
I gave someone money to invest, but was deceived so much that I lost my shorts. Ma Rui must have been frightened. He even called me and told me the whole story with a tearful voice. Can he tell me if he could?
Let me think of a solution?"
Liang Jian didn't expect that Ma Rui, who gave him a good first impression, turned out to be so childish, and the essence of a greenhouse flower was exposed. Liang Jian said: "Two million is gone, what else can I do?"
Tang Lei frowned and said: "Yeah, what else can we do? Liang Jian, please help me come up with an idea. I originally lent him money to help him at the risk of embezzling public funds. Now that the money is gone, I
Doesn’t it become an infringement of state property? If this is confirmed, I’m afraid the hat on my head will be gone and I will be punished.”
Liang Jian said: "It's not just a punishment. If the two million is not made up in time, it will be enough for you to stay there for five or six years!" Tang Lei thought about changing from a party committee secretary to a prisoner.
Accepting the method, he said unjustly: "Then I will die unjustly! I just followed Secretary Zhou's instructions! Ma Rui and I didn't know each other before, I just followed the leader's instructions!"
Liang Jian said: "You are the person who has the specific contact and operation, aren't you? You gave the money, not Zhou Qitong, right? Secretary Tang, I suspect you are the shield."
Tang Lei said: "What do you mean?"
Liang Jian said: "You think about it yourself! Mayor Hong asked Secretary Zhou to finance Ma Rui, but Secretary Zhou did not handle this matter and instead asked you to provide money from the town. In this way, didn't he evade his responsibility? Even then
If the money is gone, you are the one who has to bear the responsibility, not him!"
After hearing this, Tang Lei felt very regretful: "Why was I so obsessed at that time? I thought the boss was taking care of me when he left this kind of thing to me? I didn't expect to ask me to lick the edge of the knife. Damn,
Zhou Qitong is too insidious this time."
Liang Jian said: "You are too simple." Tang Lei became even more anxious: "Help me think of a solution, what should I do?"
Liang Jian asked: "Have you reported this matter to Zhou Qitong?" Tang Lei said: "I have already reported it. But he said that he will report it to Mayor Hong, but in the end this matter will have to be resolved by both Ma Rui and me.
.”
Liang Jian pondered for a moment and said: "I'm worried that Zhou Qitong will not report to Mayor Hong at all." Tang Lei asked in surprise: "Why is this?" Liang Jian said: "If he reports to Mayor Hong, Hong
The mayor will let him solve the problem. He will not take the initiative to get into difficult things. In addition, I am worried that he has other purposes."
Tang Lei widened his eyes and said, "What is the purpose?"
Liang Jian did not tell Tang Lei about his speculation. He thought that someone must make a fuss about this matter, especially at the critical moment when the inspection of Mayor Hong was going on today. He simply did not believe that Tan Zhenlin would give up.
Such a good opportunity. In Liang Jian's mind, the scene of Chen Hui, Tan Zhenlin, Zhou Qi and others entering the International Hotel on the same night emerged again.
Before Liang Jian left, he gave Tang Lei an idea: "The only way you can do now is to raise money quickly, regardless of relatives, friends, or asset mortgages. Anyway, hurry up and get 2 million and return it to the people in your town."
Finance. The sooner the better.”
Tang Lei said: "However, I asked the financial department to transfer the money directly. This trace cannot be wiped away." Liang Jian said: "I asked you to pay back the money, not that you can completely escape responsibility, but that you will be
Handle it gently."
With that said, Liang Jian stood up and left.
The sky outside is getting gloomier, and some cars have already turned on their headlights.
Liang Jian called Hu Xiaoying. Hu Xiaoying didn't answer, so Liang Jian walked toward home, holding his cell phone in his hand, ready to answer Hu Xiaoying's call at any time.
After a while, Hu Xiaoying called and said: "The inspection team from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee has arrived in the afternoon. The inspection of Mayor Hong and Secretary Gao has already started at the level of the four teams. They will have interviews in the evening
Cadre, I can only see you later."
Liang Jian felt that it was inappropriate to talk about those things on the phone, so he had to say: "No matter how late it is, I will wait for you." Hu Xiaoying's face was slightly hot, and she thought: "Does Liang Jian want to see me so much today?"
These thoughts are fleeting, and Hu Xiaoying usually concentrates during work. Since this inspection is of great importance, Hu Xiaoying personally waited beside the conference room used by the inspection team. Until 9:30 in the evening, the inspection team proposed
, the remaining people who have not been discussed will be discussed tomorrow.
She thought of Liang Jian saying that he would wait for her no matter how late it was. After returning to the conference room, she called Liang Jian and asked him to go to her home. Liang Jian said that it might not be appropriate to go to her home at this time.
He said: "You ask the driver to take you home first, and I will drive and wait for you in front of your house. Let's go to Qixing Island?"
Hu Xiaoying said: "Not even Qixing Island. During this period, Qixing Island is too busy!"
Liang Jian suddenly felt like he had no place in the world, so he simply said: "I will drive you in my car first, and then I will decide where to go."
Hu Xiaoying said: "Okay."
Liang Jian drove downstairs and went to the community where Hu Xiaoying lived. Hu Xiaoying dismissed the driver and got into Liang Jian's car.
The car drove out of the city. The two of them didn't speak for a while.
On the avenue leading out of the city, the radio was introducing: "Today, in the ALICE Club in the northern suburb of Jingzhou, a car open-air movie is being played. If you are going in this direction, or want to find a passionate place
, then rush there, you won’t be disappointed.”
Liang Jian glanced at Hu Xiaoying and said, "Where are we going?"
Hu Xiaoying has heard of those car movies before. Often, there is a passionate movie playing in the front, and in the car under the big screen, the men and women are already having sex for real. Thinking of this, Hu Xiaoying's ears turn red:
