As soon as he finished eating the noodles, Chen Jie's cell phone rang. He looked at it and said to Liang Jian: "It's the call from Comrade Jiang Yuan's liaison officer, probably asking for the time."
Liang Jian said: "We've almost eaten the noodles. It's enough for us to go back in half an hour. Just half an hour later."
"Okay." Chen Jie answered the phone. Sure enough, he was here to confirm the time with Chen Jie, so he set the time with them as Liang Jian said.
Before leaving, Liang Jian called Mingde and said, "Comrade Mingde, if you have nothing to do, come with us. By coincidence, I also have something I want to talk to you about."
Mingde nodded.
Four people and two cars arrived at Taihe Hotel one after another. There were still five minutes left before the time agreed with Lou Jiangyuan, just in time. Liang Jian and his party were about to go in, when suddenly a car came. Chen Jie looked at it and said, "It belongs to Comrade Jiang Yuan."
Car." As he said that, he turned to Liang Jian and asked: "Should we wait for Comrade Jiang Yuan to come together?"
When he said this, the car had already arrived. Lou Jiangyuan got out of the car and was stunned for a moment when he saw Liang Jian and the others. Mingde seemed to be worried that Lou Jiangyuan would misunderstand, so he explained: "We have just arrived here, and we happened to see your car coming.
I’ll just wait for you to come along.”
Liang Jian asked Lou Jiangyuan: "Have you had dinner?"
Lou Jiangyuan nodded: "I've eaten."
"Then let's go up." After Liang Jian finished speaking, he took the lead and walked in front. When he got upstairs, as soon as he entered the door, Chen Jie acted like a qualified secretary, took the kettle and was about to make tea. Liang Jian stopped him:
"Let Xiao Wu come, you come and sit down."
Xiao Wu stepped forward and took the kettle from his hand. Chen Jie came over to the sofa and sat next to Ming De.
Liang Jian didn't start talking straight to the point as soon as he sat down, because something like that happened before, and some of the topics he originally wanted to talk to Lou Jiangyuan might have to be reconsidered to see how to add or subtract them.
Xiao Wu quickly made tea and brought it over. After putting it down one by one, he quietly retreated out. After the door closed, Liang Jian spoke: "When I was having dinner today, I happened to meet Comrade Mingde, so I asked him to come with me."
Come here." This was said to Lou Jiangyuan. When he saw Mingde when he first got off the car, he was obviously stunned for a moment. Liang Jian saw it.
Mingde smiled, with an awkward smile. Lou Jiangyuan looked at Chen Jie with some confusion. Chen Jie looked at Liang Jian and said to Lou Jiangyuan: "Today is mainly because I am not good. I originally thought that Secretary Liang was here for the first time."
He, I wanted to take Secretary Liang to try the authentic Taihe delicacies, but I was unlucky and ran into trouble."
When Lou Jiangyuan heard this, he blurted out and asked: "Did you take Secretary Liang to Hao Lele Noodle House?"
Liang Jian suddenly became curious when he heard what Lou Jiangyuan said. Chen Jie didn't say anything just now, but Lou Jiangyuan suddenly guessed it was Hao Lele Noodle House.
Lou Jiangyuan seemed to notice Liang Jian's surprise and explained: "You may not know that Comrade Chen Jie has a habit of dragging people to Hao Lele Noodle House to eat noodles."
Liang Jian glanced at Chen Jie, who smiled sheepishly. Liang Jian cursed in his heart, what kind of habit is this. However, what Lou Jiangyuan blurted out was not as simple as what he explained. Hao Lele and that gangster are also police officers.
Lou Jiangyuan, a frequent visitor to the bureau, must have heard about it. However, everyone in the Taihe Municipal Government knew about this situation, but they continued to let it go, which really made Liang Jian a little "surprised".
Accidents are accidents, and the focus today is still on the other two things. Time is precious, so there will be no more gossip. Liang Jian took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, which was getting more and more painful today, and said: "
I invited you here today mainly because I want to learn some information from you."
Lou Jiangyuan should know very well what Liang Jian wanted to know, but Mingde seemed a little unclear, so he continued: "You tell me."
Liang Jian looked at him and asked, "Comrade Mingde must have heard about what I encountered on the highway this morning, right?"
Mingde naturally knew, but his mind was a little slower. He had not thought of this matter just now. When Liang Jian mentioned it, his expression was slightly dull. Although he quickly returned to normal, Liang Jian still saw it.
Mingde answered a little stiffly: "Well, I heard about it."
"I heard that this is not the first time these people have caused such a thing. As the leader of the public security system, Comrade Mingde should have a clearer understanding of the situation, right?" Liang Jian looked at him and asked.
"I only took over this matter after I took office recently. In the past, the previous Director He was personally in charge of it. He never let others interfere in Loushan's affairs." When Comrade Mingde answered, his eyes slightly lowered.
Liang Jian always felt that that look indicated a guilty conscience.
If it is a guilty conscience, what is Mingde guilty of? Doesn't he say he doesn't understand the guilty conscience even though he clearly understands it?
Liang Jian smiled and said: "It's okay not to know before. Now that you are the leader of the public security system, you have the opportunity and time to learn more about this matter. Well, I'll give you a month, do you think it's enough?"
?”
Comrade Mingde was stunned. He didn't expect that Liang Jian's tactics were totally unreasonable. But since Liang Jian said it, he couldn't refuse, so he had to prepare to agree. Just when he was about to nod, he remained silent.
Lou Jiangyuan suddenly spoke: "I don't think there is such a rush regarding the Loushan Coal Mine. Comrade Mingde has just taken office not long ago, and the public security system also suffered from many shortcomings under the previous Director He. He also needs time to rectify it. Secretary Liang
Isn’t it a bit inappropriate to put the burden on him at this time?”
Liang Jian was not surprised that Lou Jiangyuan suddenly spoke for Comrade Mingde. When he was in the car after lunch today, Lou Jiangyuan had already made his attitude clear. He did not want Liang Jian to hold on to Lou Shan's affairs. Moreover, he
Later, I also learned from Chen Jie that Lou Jiangyuan had encountered obstacles many times regarding Lou Shan, so his current obstruction may be because he did not want Liang Jian to repeat his previous experience in this matter.
However, Liang Jian never liked to encounter problems and would just let them go without encountering them. No matter how difficult it was, he would still face the difficulties and give it a try. In this world, there is no wall that he can't solve without running into it.
If it falls, you have to bump it to know whether it will fall. What if it does? Right?
Lou Jiangyuan may have other meanings, but Liang Jian doesn't want to understand too much. From Liang Jian's current point of view, Lou Shan's problem is actually not difficult to say, the key lies in one word. But if Lou Shan's problem is not solved,
Then it is difficult for Taihe City to change. From what Chen Jie described to him in the office during the day, and from Minister Yan's car in the morning, Liang Jian could understand that what Chen Jie said may not be completely correct, but it may not be completely correct either.
Incorrect. The problem of Loushan Coal Mine is definitely not an isolated case, it is just a microcosm. There are so many coal mines in Taihe City, and behind each coal mine, there is a shadow, connected to the province. As Chen Jie said, a certain
In this sense, the Taihe City Government is a puppet.
Liang Jian is not arrogant enough to be confident that he can completely change this situation and get rid of this puppet model, but he hopes that at least during his term of office, he can work hard to transform Taihe City into a "puppet" with certain freedom of thought and action.
.
The key to breaking through this status quo may lie in the incident at Loushan Coal Mine.
Mingde felt relaxed when he saw Lou Jiangyuan speaking for him, but when he saw that Liang Jian had not made a sound for a while, his expression became a little nervous again. Lou Jiangyuan also frowned slightly.
At this time, Chen Jie broke the silence: "Actually, I also think that there is no need to rush into Lou Shan's matter, and we can plan it slowly. This matter has been accumulated for a long time, and it will definitely not be solved overnight. At present, the most
What is important is to first solve the financial problems of the Taihe government."
Liang Jian glanced at Chen Jie, laughed, and said: "Comrade Chen Jie has hit the point. The main issue I came to you today is to talk to you about this financial issue. In this society, everything needs to be done
Money, it’s hard to move without money, and the same goes for the government, Comrade Jiang Yuan, are you right?”
Lou Jiangyuan nodded.
Liang Jian continued: "Talking back to what happened in Loushan just now, this matter is actually not difficult. In the final analysis, it still comes down to the word money. As long as we have money, then the two choices given to me by the people of Loushan today
No matter which question it is, it’s no problem.”
Lou Jiangyuan looked at Liang Jian with a serious expression: "I understand what you said. But the key lies in the word money. Where does the money come from? The economic lifeline of Taihe City lies in those coal mines, but most of these coal mines belong to
It is under the direct jurisdiction of the province, and Taihe City has no way to intervene. Moreover, due to environmental problems, Taihe City's tourism industry has plummeted in recent years, and its economic income is already very worrying. In addition, the corruption problem in the previous term was serious, and today's Taihe City
The city government is just an empty show, it looks good and sounds good. In fact, it is just a fat man with a swollen face."
Seeing Lou Jiangyuan's serious expression, Liang Jian straightened his expression and replied: "I have already had a preliminary understanding of what you said. So, I called you here today because I want to discuss with you how the money comes from. This question,
It always needs to be solved, are you willing to live in this state for the next few years?"
Lou Jiangyuan looked a little ugly, his lips moved, but no words came out. Liang Jian knew that a person who had hit the wall seven or eight times in the province over the Loushan Coal Mine would naturally not be willing to give in. But
On the other hand, Liang Jian looked at Mingde, who lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.
"Comrade Mingde, what do you think?" Liang Jian didn't want him to just get by with his head down.
Comrade Mingde raised his head and sighed: "Whoever works in this system doesn't want to have some glorious deeds on their resume, but the problems in Taihe City are not something that happened in the past few years. It's just because of the past two years.
The problem of corruption has been exposed. The problem in Taihe City can be said to be deep-rooted. Unless you pull out all the coal mining groups as poisonous fangs one by one, it will not be solved."
Mingde's pessimism and decadence made Liang Jian a little disappointed. He shook his head, turned to Lou Jiangyuan, and said, "I heard someone say before that Comrade Jiang Yuan is a person with a fire in his heart. Now, I want to ask,
Has the fire in Comrade Jiang Yuan’s psychology been extinguished?" The officialdom within the bureau
