Chapter 24 Jiao Lei's Opportunity
When Gao Zhikai and Zhao Hongxia were quarreling, Lu Zheng was "listening to the Hadith" in the office of county party secretary Qiu Dahe.
Qiu Dahe was in his age of knowing destiny. He was tall and stubborn, with a loud voice, domineering appearance, and bald head, like a bandit. He encouraged Lu Zheng a few words, asking Lu Zheng to "work with peace of mind and build the Guangning public security system into a bridgehead for the reform and opening up of Guangning" and so on.
Finally, he smiled and said, "Lu Zheng, have your personal problems been solved?" His name for Lu Zheng changed from "Xiao Lu" to "Lu Zheng", confirming the improvement of Lu Zheng's status in Guangning's political life.
The position of the county bureau director is different. Other county-level departments can be withdrawn at any time. Especially, friends in the municipal bureau said that Lu Zheng was named directly by the provincial department leaders. No wonder, it was like Director Chu wrote that he said all good things for Lu Zheng. Not only did the May 16 serial murder case, the Nanying family killing case, and the shooting and killing Zhang Ziliquan became Lu Zheng alone. Even many cases handled by Gao Zhikai over the past year have become the fruits of Lu Zheng's leadership. It is no wonder that the provincial department leaders chose to promote Lu Zheng in an extraordinary way.
The cases Lu Zheng handled recently were all seen in Qiu Dahe's eyes. This young man was really a sharp knife on the public security front. If it was used well, it would be a great help. In particular, Lu Zheng and Ma Weiguo and Zhang Qingming had no connection with each other, so Qiu Dahe was happy to see his appointment.
Seeing Lu Zheng shook his head, Qiu Dahe smiled and said, "Yes, you are still young, don't worry!" When talking about Lu Zheng's personal problems, Qiu Dahe had a suitable candidate, but after thinking about it, he still didn't say that although this young man seemed to have become calm recently, he heard that he was a famous gangster before and no one could get out of the market if he directly refused himself.
After chatting for a few more casual words, when Qiu Dahe answered the phone, Lu Zheng stood up and said goodbye.
Lu Zheng knew that Qiu Dahe seemed rough but was actually shrewd, otherwise the position of county magistrate would not be so difficult to give birth, and he would always be with him.
Now that he is still in his observation period, he must take a good look at himself and think about himself. The government agencies are nothing more than thinking about people. Once they understand, they will often achieve twice the result with half the effort.
When he left Qiu Dahe's office and went down to the second floor, Lu Zheng thought for a while, then walked towards Liu Baojun's office and knocked on the door lightly.
With a "in" sound, Lu Zheng pushed the door and walked in. Liu Baojun was sitting behind his desk to review documents.
"Come on, Zhengzi, sit down." Liu Baojun was still full of enthusiasm, as if nothing had happened, and the name was closer to him.
After saying a few gossips, Liu Baojun looked at his watch and smiled and said, "It's almost time to get off work. I'll treat you to celebrate?"
Lu Zheng smiled and said, "I have to go back today. Xiaohu is waiting for me, let's go another day."
Liu Baojun smiled and nodded.
Lu Zheng knew that although Liu Baojun didn't mention a word, he must be thinking about what kind of trick he was, and why he suddenly appeared and intercepted their Hu.
Thank you Director Chu.
Lu Zheng's thoughts couldn't help but float to half a month ago. Director Chu accidentally mentioned that the disappearances of children in his hometown were also victims of his niece, and he still had no life or death or corpses.
Lu Zheng knew that the ins and outs of this sensational case was actually abducting and trafficking of children. However, due to various accidents, the criminals were promoted to be a magical flower shooter, a cruel and fierce cannibal, etc., and it would take more than two months to solve the case.
So Lu Zheng provided some ideas in a vague way, which inspired Director Chu. He called the public security organ where he was in his hometown and the case was solved within two days. At this point, Director Chu was so impressed by Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng thought, maybe this is the reason why Director Chu returned to the provincial department to say good things to him, even better than the piece of ancient jade that Liu Baojun gave to Director Chu.
When Director Chu left, he wanted to ask Lu Zheng to return the piece of ancient jade to Liu Baojun, but Lu Zheng could not agree. If it was Ma Weiguo, it would be a gift from Director Chu to him. Not only did he have the handle to take Ma Weiguo, but the other party could not understand his background. However, the other party was Liu Baojun and he had a special relationship with him, so it would be better to pretend not to know about this matter.
I think in a few days, Director Chu will think of other ways to return the ancient jade to Liu Baojun.
Thinking about it, Lu Zheng went downstairs and just walked out of the entrance, a green jeep stopped beside Lu Zheng.
The car door opened, and a short and fat young man jumped off, smiling flatteringly, nodding and bowing, "Director Lu, I'm here to pick you up."
Lu Zheng recognized this green jeep, and the car in the bureau, actually became the special car of the bureau.
Although it was confirmed that he became the new director by Secretary Yuan's phone call today, he would not hurry to enjoy the treatment of Zhang Qingming's special car, but instead rode a bicycle with Liu Baojun to the county party committee compound.
He was not in a hurry, but naturally someone was in a hurry to curry favor with the director who had changed the dynasty. The fat man who came to pick up Lu Zheng was named Jiao Lei, the driver of the driver's class of the County Bureau Administrative Section.
When Lu Zheng first came to Guangning, the internal institutions of the county bureau were: Criminal Police Team, Public Security Department, Political Security Department, Pre-trial Department, Domestic Security Department, Guard Department, Secretary Department, Letters and Visits Department, Administrative Detention Center, Political Work Office, Detention Center, etc.
By the beginning of this year, according to the approval of the county editorial committee’s document No. 2 [1984], the county bureau originally established various share reform departments, and the secretary department and the political work office were divided into offices and administrative departments, and political research departments were added.
In this way, the bureau basically assumed the functions of the Secretary Department, and the administrative department became a big manager in the overall situation, providing logistics support for the overall situation, and was divided into kitchen classes, communications classes, driver classes and accounting rooms.
The little fat Jiao Lei is the driver of the driver's class. He is not very old and in his twenties, but he is an old man who takes over the work of the county bureau at the age of seventeen.
However, although he was just a driver in the driver's class, he was not the turn of his driver to drive for the director in the past in the past. Now that the county bureau has changed its king flag, Jiao Lei keenly realized that his opportunity has come. Lao Zhang, who used to drive for Director Zhang, wanted to continue driving for the new Director Lu, but Director Lu would not know how to use it.
So Jiao Lei went to ask Lao Zhang for the car keys today, got the car as soon as possible, and came to the county party committee compound to wait for Lu Zheng.
Without much hesitation, Lu Zheng nodded, then got into the bus and took the co-pilot seat. Nowadays, most of the cars equipped at the grassroots level are Jeeps, and the leader's seat is not in the back seat, so it is more comfortable to sit in the co-pilot.
Jiao Lei helped Lu Zheng close the door, and trotted into the car again, fired up, and the movement frequency was very fast. He knew that the opportunity was only one time, so he naturally had to perform well.
"Director, I'll take you home first, and then take your bicycle back to you afterwards." Jiao Lei glanced at Lu Zheng's face and said carefully.
Lu Zheng nodded.
The green jeep passed through the streets and alleys and soon arrived at the urban-rural fringe of the southern suburbs of the county.
After turning into a dirt road, there was a clear rural atmosphere. The bungalows all face north and south, with white lime slogans and propaganda posters painted on the back wall. The propaganda posters were vivid: a proud young farmer, riding a little boy around his neck, and two slightly older girls were hanging on his left and right arms. In the second picture, the young farmer turned into an old man bent over hunched, and his grown son rode on his back, and the four girls were hanging heavily on his weak arms. The white and gray text below said, "Family planning is a basic national policy, and it is shameful to live in secret for more children!"
Family planning work is underway. Sometimes, when you go to the countryside to catch women for ligation, you have to mobilize the police force from various police stations.
There are firewood piles in front of almost every house on both sides of the dirt road. The courtyard walls include tall houses and large courtyards surrounded by blue bricks, and simple fences made of millet stems. In sharp contrast, it is the prototype of wealth first and wealth later.
Jiao Lei whispered: "The living environment of Bureau Lu is a bit difficult. Fortunately, the family building in the bureau will be completed soon." After saying that, he couldn't help but regret it, and he wanted to slap himself in the face. Why do you say more? This is not what he should have chatted with his leader. What he meant was like, but it seemed that Bureau Lu had already set a place for the house.
Lu Zheng didn't say anything, but just lit a cigarette.
Jiao Lei felt even more cold. It was over. It seemed that the hope of driving Director Lu was ruined.
Soon, Jeep stopped in front of a yard with green brick courtyard walls and green iron doors. Some children and villagers watched from a distance. These days, it is rare to enter the village, but this village is called Zhaozhuang, which is the junction of urban and rural areas and belongs to Chengguan Town. In addition, Guangning's economy is developing very fast, so the villagers have seen more or less the world, and there is no situation where a group of people gather to watch the fun.
Jiao Lei had already inquired about Director Lu's residence with Du Xiaohu, and even sent Du Xiaohu home to confirm it, so it was extremely accurate to recognize the door.
It was sunny after the rain, and the village was in the east, and the sky was filled with rainbows, which were beautiful.
In the yard, Du Xiaohu moved out the iron stove. He was just fiddling with something. He looked up and saw Lu Zheng who entered the yard and smiled and said, "Brother Zhengzi, I don't know how to make the meat skewers, eat barbecue."
Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Okay, I'll be extravagant today."
Jiao Lei looked at him curiously, but did not dare to ask more questions. He quickly set off a fire and went to the county party committee compound to pick up the bicycle from the Land Bureau.
The oil was put into the pot and the aroma was everywhere. Du Xiaohu put the sliced pork slices into the pot and carefully whisked it.
Du Xiaohu also set up a table beside the iron stove. Lu Zheng sat on the stool at the table and looked at the two large plates of pork slices on the table. Lu Zheng smiled: "Haven have you always been thrifty in the house? What's wrong? Isn't life going to come?"
Du Xiaohu laughed and said, "You beat a big tiger away. Today I have to celebrate it. Besides, Wang Yuguo gave him ten kilograms of meat tickets, and this meat doesn't cost much."
Wang Yuguo is the director of the bureau’s office and the head of the administrative section. He is the real steward of the county bureau. The meat tickets in the bureau are rationed and are also under his jurisdiction.
Lu Zheng frowned and said, "Hu Zi, I'll send the extra meat tickets back tomorrow. I want to eat meat. Let's spend money to buy them. Is this a little less?" Du Xiaohu is like a younger brother, but he is too straightforward and has to teach many things step by step.
Du Xiaohu scratched his head and said, "Okay, I thought I could save as much as I could." He had nothing to understand. Lu Zheng always pointed at and hit him wherever he pointed.
Lu Zheng sighed and said, "Hu Zi, there will be more people in the future who want to be friends with you, but how many of these people are sincere? You should do more and talk less in the future. Don't be too hot for others, just make friends with others."
Although Du Xiaohu was straightforward, he was not stupid. He nodded and said, "I understand, oh..." But the oil splashed into his hand.
Lu Zheng couldn't help laughing, shook his head, and looked at the pork slices on the table.
There are two types of market prices for pork in Wushan area, one is the price supplied by tickets, and the other is the market price of 58%. This is the price dual-track system.
Since 1979, the dual-track price system has begun to appear. In 1981, the State Council approved the export of crude oil produced exceeding the base and allowed the international market price to be exported; in 1983, the excessive-track oil and coal overproduction parts were approved to be sold at a price of 20%; in 1984, the excess-track oil and coal overproduction parts were approved to be sold within 20% of the price, etc., all of which are part of the dual-track price system.
This is from a national perspective. As a coastal open city, Wushan area also has its own policies, and the pace of market relaxation is much faster than that in the mainland.
Taking pork as an example, from supplying entirely on tickets to opening up in 1979, to restoring the ticket supply system in 1981, and then implementing a new system of planned ticket supply and unplanned market supply for urban residents after being set up as a coastal city, it can be said that we have been exploring the path of reform.
However, the new system of dual-track price system inevitably gives people who hold power the opportunity to seek personal gain, get the planned indicators, and then sell them at an unplanned market price, thereby earning the difference.
This kind of reselling can be big or small. To put it simply, getting some meat tickets, oil tickets, and industrial product supply tickets to facilitate yourself and benefit others. He also has a sense of glory of holding power. Even the old workers in famous bicycle factories have become respected by neighbors and neighbors, because through him, they can get the supply tickets for famous bicycles.
To put it bluntly, the reselling goods are industrial materials, crude oil and coal, and their high profits cannot be calculated. This is what was later called "official collapse".
Now, the meat tickets Wang Yuguo gave to Du Xiaohu can be counted as the first part, which is just a small benefit, but Lu Zheng didn't want to benefit from this.
Originally, the price of pork supplied by tickets in Guangning County is 1.02 yuan per 500 grams, and the guided sales price for unplanned supply is 1.61 yuan. The difference is less than 6 cents per kilogram, and ten kilograms is only 6 yuan. It may be a big number for others, but how can Lu Zheng care?
Chapter completed!
