After seeing off Secretary Gao, Xiao Zixin found time to talk to the county magistrate Cheng Fan when he came back. They left the county government together when they were about to get off work in the evening, and called a few people on the phone to gather at the hotel. As soon as Secretary Gao left,
County Magistrate Cheng Fan is the most popular candidate to succeed him as county party secretary. The Municipal Party Committee Organization Department has already completed the examination and is just waiting for the formal order. Before Secretary Gao left, he had told Xiao Zixin individually and said hello that Xiao Zixin was in doubt about the follow-up.
Secretary Gao also explained to Cheng Fan the development and work of Pu County. Xiao Zixin knew this well.
No matter where you are, the greatest resource for an official is people, which is what the people say is the backstage. To put it bluntly, Xiao Zixin can become bigger and bigger and smooth sailing, and the harder he gets in Xuanpu County, his backstage is high
The secretary is undoubtedly.
Now that Secretary Gao Wentai has left, it is necessary to communicate with County Magistrate Cheng individually. Moreover, based on Gao Wentai's personal relationship with Cheng Fan, including Xiao Zixin's previous personal relationship with Cheng Fan, nothing was a problem.
Cheng Fan said: "Don't worry, Xiao Xiao, don't think too much about anything else. Secretary Gao is gone and I will be there. We haven't been outsiders for so many years. Lao Gao has already explained your affairs before he left. You are indeed a capable person."
, although the time to arrive at the Public Security Bureau is not too long, it is still a long way to go. I need to pay more attention to my work in the future. After getting rid of Jin Laoba, I can be stable for a few days. However, I still need to pay more attention to social security and stability.
Ensure that no unexpected major incidents occur.”
Xiao Zixin nodded and said, "Yes, I understand, County Magistrate Cheng."
The two of them used to drink together on official business, and Sun Wei, Zhang Chaomin and others would often meet together at Secretary Gao's house on Sundays when they had nothing to do. They were really just like each other. They were superiors and subordinates in public and friends in private.
——Brothers, although Xiao Zixin is much younger than them.
When I arrived at the office the next day, at around eight o'clock, Xiao Zixin was about to inform the political commissar that several deputy directors were meeting. Suddenly the phone rang. I picked it up and it was his cousin Xiao Zijie from the countryside.
My cousin said: "Zixin, are you at home or in the office at this time?"
"Oh, cousin, I'm in the office, what's the matter?"
"Oh, I'm rushing to you. Don't leave. Don't leave. I'll be there soon..."
"What's going on?" Xiao Zixin was a little flustered when he heard the other person's tone, as if something had happened, and his expression changed. Ever since he became the section chief in the county government office, all the relatives and friends in his hometown Niangniangzhai felt embarrassed.
This is especially true for Shang Youguang, especially the relatives of his parents. After he became a member of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee, Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee and Director of the Public Security Bureau in the county, people in his hometown knew that it was a good thing. Generally speaking, although they were proud, the villagers
People in the county dare not bully them, and they will not take the initiative to provoke others. Therefore, over the years, apart from visiting him in the county, they rarely come to him to do anything.
However, as long as there is something going on, it will definitely be easy to contact him...but nothing has ever caused relatives to panic. What is it??
My cousin said: "I can't explain it clearly over the phone about the cigarettes. I'll take a ride to the county soon. I'll tell you in detail when I get there!"
Okay, Xiao Zixin sat down again after hearing this. In this case, let's wait until he comes over to see what's going on. We can only put the meeting aside for now. He lit a cigarette, and he was still wondering what was going on. He was panicking.
panic??
This cousin is the second son of Uncle Xiao Zixin. He worked as a cadre in a department under the Forestry Bureau. His wife is an employee of Niangniangzhai Township Supply and Marketing Cooperative. After the reform and opening up policy, she opened a small shop. In recent years, the business has been booming.
As he grew bigger, it seemed like a snowball. He had little contact with Xiao Zixin at ordinary times. He was busy making money, and Xiao Zixin was thinking about how to become an official. In addition to meeting everyone for a few days during the New Year and holidays, he even went to the county
I come here to buy goods, and I usually don’t bother him. Occasionally, I’ll call him and ask him to go out for a meal...
My cousin is here, and he is walking all the way upstairs. Xiao Zixin hears his footsteps from far away. When he hears the sound, he knows it is his cousin. Haha, other colleagues will not walk all the way in the Public Security Bureau like him.
It's like hitting a hot wheel.
Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Zixin heard the knock on the door, the door had been pushed open, revealing the face of his cousin Xiao Zijie, who came in with sweat on his face: "Oh my god! I'm so anxious..."
"Haha, what's the matter with you??" Xiao Zixin smiled when he saw him like this, but he didn't take it seriously. He got up and made him tea. It was good tea. Someone brought it back from Yunnan as a gift to him. While making it, he looked back.
cousin.
"Zixin, my carload of cigarettes has been seized by the county tobacco bureau. What do you think we should do? Do you know their director?" Cousin Xiao Zijie took his tea cup, put it aside, and said with a face.
"The cigarettes were confiscated, who deducted them?"
"I don't know him either, he seems to be a section chief, his surname is Bai!"
"How do you buckle it?" Xiao Zixin understood as soon as he heard it. He was still calm and smiling, but it hurt whoever cut his flesh. His cousin Xiao Zijie was really anxious. He looked like he was about to cry. He used to
The appearance and demeanor of the cadres in the Forestry Bureau when they were in charge are gone, haha.
"I went to Shenyang to seize goods and asked them to stop me on the way back. Everything was fine in front of me. When I got home, I was stopped by them. After checking, they found out. Now the car is also going to the Nongxian Tobacco Bureau.
Well, why don't I take a taxi and call you right now? Let's see what we do about this?" Xiao Zijie stood up and went to the door, pulled a white towel to wipe the hot sweat on his fat face, and looked at Xiao Zixin helplessly.
.
He has been doing business over the years, and even last year he took the initiative to go to sea and even stopped working temporarily. The business grew bigger and bigger, and the money in his hands became richer and richer. As his cousin Xiao Zixin, he knew this, but he secretly smoked cigarettes. Xiao Zixin
Xin didn't know at all.
According to his cousin Xiao Zijie, he has been selling cigarettes for more than half a year. He got some small cigarettes (all kinds of bargains) from the Shenyang Wu'ai Street market. There are all kinds of cigarettes. He doesn't go through the tobacco bureau and comes back to wholesale them secretly.
Those small shops in the countryside are very popular among farmers and their profits are considerable...
From the beginning, it has been relatively peaceful and uneventful. He also knows that this is illegal, so he is usually very careful, so nothing has happened. He never thought that something happened this time. He said: "I took the test, I guess it must be the tobacco gang."
I heard some rumors, or maybe someone was eyeing me before and deliberately tried to harm me, so they reported me in order to reward me!"
Ordinarily, cousin Xiao Zijie knew that his younger brother Xiao Zixin was a member of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee, Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee and Director of Public Security, and was in charge of the county's legal affairs, so he made a big deal and rushed to find his cousin as soon as something happened.
Tell me something. However, he only knows one thing but not the other, and there is a difference between law and law. Although Xiao Zixin is in charge of the political and legal department, including the procuratorate, no matter what the matter is in the court, any minor matter can be solved with just a phone call.
Yes, holding a "Three Leaders' Meeting" on major matters will also unify their thinking, so it's no problem either.
However, once this method is linked to the economy, that is, to the money (meat) of an organization or individual that is not directly under one's control, things become a bit troublesome...
"How many cigarettes?" Xiao Zixin handed his cousin a cigarette, lit it for him and lit it himself. He felt that something was wrong and asked with concern.
"One truck!" Cousin Xiao Zijie took a sip of water, and when he spoke, a piece of chicken jelly spurted out the water again, "It's a truck full of goods, hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of goods! I screamed.
The tobacco road is suddenly blocked and it’s all over. Can I not be afraid or feel bad, brother?”
Xiao Zixin nodded and stopped smiling. Looking at his cousin's anxious expression, his expression gradually changed. He became serious and sat back at his desk, feeling his heart break.
Indeed, this is not a problem for him. Of course he has to take care of his cousin's affairs and cannot just sit idly by. However, having worked in the county government office and county party committee office, he also understands that dumping tobacco is illegal and there are special laws.
Anyway, although he had not paid attention to it before and was not familiar with what the "Tobacco Monopoly Law of the People's Republic of China" is, what specific actions and statements it has, and even when he arrived at the County Public Security Bureau, he didn't quite understand it. However,
He knew that the law "Tobacco Monopoly Law of the People's Republic of China" definitely existed and existed, but he had never seriously understood its contents.
The key point is that no matter whether he was in the county government office or the county committee office, including now that he is the director of the Public Security Bureau, he has little contact with the people in the Tobacco Bureau, let alone any relations. Cousin Xiao Zijie asked them to confiscate his cigarettes, and he
He can't talk nonsense, but he also understands that it is difficult to take care of it.
First of all, the county only manages the Tobacco Bureau administratively, but has no control over people, salaries, benefits, personnel promotions and transfers. You have no hand in it, so they are not afraid of you at all. He handles this at the county government.
When the county party committee was running, I had heard about it all. What impressed me the most was that every time the county held a meeting to deploy some things, sometimes they dared to send a second-in-command to the meeting where their top-in-command was required to attend. Haha, eight out of ten times.
This is the case, only once or twice did the top leader feel happy and come over to sit and listen to the "spirit of the meeting"...
As for whether to follow the county's arrangements when I return, there's no way to say that. You can do it, or you can't do it. Of course, in terms of face, the leaders of the Tobacco Bureau can't go against the county, and it won't affect them.
Promotion can also restrict them in other matters.
Therefore, including Xiao Zixin, who has served as deputy director of the county government office and county party committee office, and is now a member of the county party committee standing committee, secretary of the political and legal committee and director of public security, are not very familiar with the Tobacco gang. After all, they rarely interact with each other.
There's no need for them.
As for the people in the Tobacco Bureau, they naturally form their own group in the county and rarely interact with the county and the Public Security Bureau. They only visit each other during the New Year and holidays to have fun. They have no deep friendships and no personal feelings to talk about.
Suddenly, their cousin's cigarettes were confiscated, and all of a sudden there was a truckload of hundreds of thousands of yuan worth of goods. Xiao Zixin began to pay attention to it and felt a little embarrassed. No wonder his cousin Xiao Zijie was so anxious!
"What should I do, brother!" Xiao Zijie asked: "The section chief named Bai said that if the goods are withheld, I may be fined heavily. I tried to secretly give him some money, but it didn't work.
, I have a business-like look on my face, I’m going to take the tnnd exam! I’m really not a human being..."
"Don't worry, brother." To be honest, Xiao Zixin was really embarrassed and anxious about this matter, but on the surface he didn't show it. After all, these years of officialdom have made him more and more mature, and he understood that in the end it didn't matter.
Even big problems can always be solved.
In the final analysis, Xuanpu County is only such a big territory. If there are things that he, the Standing Committee Member of the County Party Committee, Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee and Director of Public Security, cannot handle, then my cousin Xiao Zijie may not be able to handle them no matter who he looks for.
If it were anything else, Xiao Zixin would definitely agree to it. After all, he was also his cousin whether it was illegal or not. However, when it came to tobacco, even if he wanted to agree to his cousin immediately, he didn't have much confidence in his heart because of various reasons.
The reason is that it is easy for him to agree, but it is hard to say how they will handle the matter at the Tobacco Bureau and whether they will give him face.
He thought for a moment and said: "Well, brother, I will find a place for you to rest first. You are exhausted after running all day and night. Don't worry, I will take care of this matter, okay?"
When my cousin heard this, he felt a little relieved.
"Several hundred thousand yuan, Zixin, do you think I can stop being anxious? Oh my, I'm really anxious and angry now. I haven't dared to call your sister-in-law at home to tell her about this. If I do, she'll be even more worried.
I don’t know how anxious it will be..." Xiao Zijie said. Seeing that Xiao Zixin remained silent, he put down the teacup and said: "Okay, Zixin, you can take care of it. You must talk to Director Bao over there.
Come on, give me the goods and ask for them back, don't let him punish me. Anyway, I'm really scared about this, and there's nothing I can do about it... That's why I came to trouble you, are you okay?"
Xiao Zixin understood that he was talking about whether the cigarette would be released in the end and whether he would be fined. In order to comfort him, he nodded and said: "It's okay."
With that said, he went out and asked someone to send his cousin Xiao Zijie to the hotel to arrange a room to rest. While sending his cousin Xiao Zijie downstairs, he comforted him and told him not to get angry. Watching his cousin finally turn around, he nodded again and again.
With a helpless expression, Xiao Zixin knew that his family responsibilities and official responsibilities were somewhat contradictory... After sending away his cousin Xiao Zijie, Xiao Zixin returned to the office and sat down to think about it. He picked up the phone and wanted to call the Tobacco Bureau directly.
Telephone.
Holding the phone between his legs, he took out the phone book and turned to the Tobacco Bureau's phone number, but put it down without calling it.
Xiao Zixin walked outside and called the office director and asked him to call the Tobacco Bureau and ask: "Ask them if Director Bao is at home."
"Okay, Mr. Xiao, I'll call right away."
After a while, the office director came over and said, "Director Bao is at home. Is there something wrong, Director?"
"Well, something happened," Xiao Zixin said. "How is your relationship with Director Bao? Have you had any contact with him?"
"It's just a casual acquaintance, and we haven't even had a drink." Xiao Zixin understood as soon as he heard it, there was no chance.
"Do you know who in our bureau is usually closer to the boss of Tobacco?" As soon as the office director heard this question, he knew that there must be something going on here, and it was a big personal matter for the director, so he immediately took it as a matter.
But after thinking about it, as far as he knew, the bureau had some connections with the people from the Tobacco Bureau. He knew this, and he had worked with them before, checking for smuggled cigarettes. However, he didn't have much contact with their leaders.
Most of the bureau leaders and the people below have no special needs or relationships. Haha, it really depends on how much time is used and how little is spent...
"Oh, forget it, okay, go ahead." Xiao Zixin nodded and said.
"Director, what's the matter? Can I help you?"
"I'm afraid you can't help me with this, I'll find another way!"
"Well, okay, Director Xiao, I'll go back first..." After the office director turned around and left, Xiao Zixin looked at the grass outside the window, lit a cigarette and smoked it slowly. For a while, he really didn't think about who was with that tobacco.
