Ouyang Ming once heard a friend of the procuratorate say that when Li Li was interrogated by the Anti-Corruption Bureau, he confessed: two years ago, he approved income tax exemption for the revitalization of steel mills, and he received 1 million yuan of "hard work" from Li Botang every time. Two times, Chen Weiping received a total of 2 million yuan and 200,000 yuan in "Xinlianxin Supermarket" shopping coupons; as a matchmaker, Chen Weiping received a total of 400,000 yuan in "Xinlianxin Supermarket" twice, and 100,000 yuan in "Xinlianxin Supermarket" Supermarket “shopping vouchers,
Li Li took the initiative to confess these bribery behaviors, and Chen Weiping was also bitten by Li Li for "making meritorious service". However, because Li Botang refused to admit that he gave them money and shopping coupons, the procuratorate could not find any evidence at all. In addition, someone from above said hello, saying that he should not pursue the bribery of revitalizing the steel plant, so the matter was left unresolved...
At that time, the friend of the procuratorate sighed to Ouyang Ming: Li Botang is really loyal and gave money to his friend. Even if the person who accepted the bribe confessed, he still refused to admit it. He tried every means to reduce the guilt of the other party, not to take advantage of the situation, and not to take advantage of others. Zhijian is indeed a good man worthy of close contact.
Ouyang Ming also deeply agrees with Li Botang, thinking that he is indeed a hard man who is reliable at critical moments. He is capable and responsible. He should be very reliable and reassuring to make friends and deal with such people.
It is precisely because of this idea that when Li Botang clearly asked him to help with the income tax reduction, he hinted that he would give him and Ye Ming a "hard fee" and "benefit fee" just like Li Li and Chen Weiping. At that time, he couldn't help but be moved, staring at Li Botang, waiting for his next sentence,
In fact, when he first walked into this private room and saw Li Botang’s father and son, Ouyang Ming was still a little wary, because during this period, he kept remembering Ye Ming’s reminder to him and repeatedly warned himself: “In integrity.” On the issue, you must be careful and don’t fall into trouble, otherwise you will be doomed.
However, when he saw that Li Botang was preparing to give him money, especially after listening to his theory of "money needs everyone to make money", his mind, which was not strong enough, began to shake: Li Botang is a provincial people's congress representative. He has a deep relationship in the province and the city. If he takes his money, there will definitely be no accident. He will take a step back and say that even if something happens, he can settle it for himself. The matter between Li Li and Chen Weiping is the best example.
The most important thing is: he urgently needs money now because he knows that Ye Ming has broken up with Chen Mengqi, and he still owes Chen Mengqi more than 100,000 yuan. He really wants to pay back this money before the Spring Festival, and the branch office He didn't want to owe the money for the cadre for too long. Since he blocked the bullet for Ye Ming last time, the bureau has been looking at him with admiration, thinking that he has been completely reborn and completely changed. After the bad habits and bad habits of the past, he is a promising and capable middle-level leader.
Therefore, in order to further consolidate his good impression in the minds of leaders and colleagues, he wanted to pay off the money owed to the cadres in the bureau as soon as possible, and from then on, he was innocent and clean, and strive to get the bureau like Ye Ming and get it The leaders valued the cadres and respected him. He felt that it was indeed a very wonderful feeling to be recognized and respected in a unit. It is much happier and more comfortable than winning tens of thousands of dollars when playing cards... …
Therefore, if Li Botang could give himself some money, he could pay off the debt with the money, and never accept any taxpayers' gifts, nor do he go to gambling, be a good cadre, a good husband, and a good father, And follow Ye Ming closely to do his career and find a bright future for himself...
He also knew: As Li Botang himself said, their tax exemption application for revitalizing the steel plant will be approved sooner or later. Even if he and Ye Ming firmly oppose it, it may be useless at that time, because Li Botang is in the third tax office of the Provincial Bureau. The three municipal departments of the municipal bureau have all swept the roads. If Xinleng County Bureau suppresses his tax exemption application and fails to report it, the leaders of the provincial bureau and municipal bureau will definitely interfere. At that time, say hello to the leaders of the county bureau. , the branch office has to report the information obediently,
Instead of doing this, it is better to do it yourself and convince Ye Ming to sign a letter on their tax exemption application, which is a little profitable: Anyway, the leaders at this benefit will get it. Even if something happens, there will be a large number of them. When the leaders are involved, they will naturally find a way to find a way. Li Botang will definitely try every means to put out the fire, and nothing big will happen...
Li Botang observed his words and expressions, and knew that Ouyang Ming was beginning to be moved, so he smiled slightly and said, "Xiao Ou, I know that you have saved Xiao Ye's life and have kindness to him. I also know Xiao Ye, who is a person who is surrendered but not a tough person. , and it is very moral and emotional. He will repay kindness. He may not listen to others' words. However, if you, the benefactor who saved his life, go to him to plead with love, he will probably give you full face. Moreover, I won’t let you and Xiaoye help us in vain. We will give the rewards we should give according to the rules.”
After hearing that he made the words clear, Ouyang Ming stopped hiding them and said with some concern: "Uncle Li, I understand what you mean, but there are two difficulties here: First, I am the Director Ye. I am relatively familiar with it. I am always honest and self-confident and never accept any benefits from taxpayers. Although you came forward to take care of it this time, with his personality, I am afraid I will not accept it. Second, to be honest, our bureau has just released it. The Party Committee of the Bureau is very concerned about the issue of clean government construction. If something happens, not only will Director Ye and I fall into a fight, but I am afraid that you and Brother Zhi will be involved at that time. , I still feel a little unsure."
Li Botang raised his head and smiled, saying, "Director Ou, you are too worried. I know Xiao Ye is very honest, but, as the so-called "residence and movement of energy and body, people sing songs on the mountain when they go." Xiao Ye is now the actual person in charge of a branch. He is usually influenced by his knowledge and should also know many of the unspoken rules and service rules of your tax bureau. I estimate: If he wants to climb up now, he wants to further narrow his leadership at all levels. The relationship must also be backed by economic strength. After all, I am embarrassed to go to any leader’s house without any gift that I can give, right? I also know Xiaoye’s economic situation. It's not very generous. As long as he is sure that my hard work fee is safe and does not have any hidden dangers to him, what does he dare not take?"
