Chapter 674 Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee
This is the first time Zou Wenming has received a leader like Xia Bicheng since he became the head of the Xinleng County Bureau. In addition, he is a relatively dull person and is not good at socializing. Therefore, how to receive Xia Bicheng, Xia Chuchu and Regarding the issue of Wang Yaozhong and others, he was a little confused and at a loss, so he had to quietly ask Xu Fei for advice.
Xu Fei knew that Zou Wenming was a practical person and was a little lacking in communication skills, so he gave him some guidance and said: "First go to a better hotel and arrange the room for Director Xia, Director Wang and Chu Chu, and let them put their luggage in it." Put it down first and take a short rest before going to eat. When arranging the room, you should pay attention to one thing: Director Xia and Director Wang must not arrange the guest rooms on the eighth floor. It is best to be on the seventh floor. My suggestion is: Director Xia It’s best to be assigned to room 713. Director Wang can choose between rooms 703 and 706.”
In Zou Wenming's impression, "13" has always been a bad number, and "7" is not a very auspicious number. According to his original intention, he wanted to arrange "818" and "616" for Director Xia. " and other rooms. Unexpectedly, Xu Fei asked him to arrange Director Xia in room "713". He couldn't help but asked in a strange low voice: "Director Xu, the number 713 is not very good, is there any mystery in it?"
Xu Fei smiled and said: "Old Zou, the officialdom is not like the business world. It doesn't pay attention to those famous things. The reason why I want you to arrange for Director Xia and Director Wang to live on the seventh floor is because there is an idiom called "Seven ups and eight downs", people in the official career, who doesn't want to just go up but not down. If you arrange for leaders to live on the eighth floor, isn't it a curse for them to step down? As for 13, although this number is a very unlucky number in the West, And it is said that many high-rise buildings in Western countries do not have a 13th floor. However, in Tianjiang Province, because the pronunciation of 'yaosan' is very close to the pronunciation of 'yaoshang', many leading comrades particularly like the 13th floor. This number."
After listening to Xu Fei's explanation, Zou Wenming patted his head in realization and said: "So that's what happened. Fortunately, Director Xu reminded me, otherwise, I would have really arranged Director Xia to room 818, and that would have been terrible. "
Finally, Zou Wenming arranged for Xia Bicheng and others to stay at the newly opened quasi-four-star hotel "Dihao Hotel". They had lunch at the Chinese restaurant on the first floor of the hotel.
The inspection experts from the provincial bureau's inspection team heard that Director Xia had come to Xinleng in person and refused to miss the opportunity to get close to Director Xia. They all rushed over from the Xinleng Hotel at noon to have dinner with Director Xia.
When Xia Bicheng saw that they were all here, he simply asked Zou Wenming to rush to the Xinlang Hotel, invited several comrades from the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission's inspection team, and cooked four tables of meals together.
After finishing the meal, Xia Bicheng stayed with the people from the Provincial Bureau's inspection team and the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission's inspection team, and went to a small conference room in the hotel for a short meeting.
At this short meeting, Xia Bicheng told the comrades of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection the "peeling off the skin layer by layer" method he had discussed with Xu Fei, and asked them to work hard for a few days to help the Local Taxation Bureau dig out the internal moths. As long as they obtained Their confessions and evidence will naturally be destroyed by Li Botang and others.
Everyone in the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection knew that Xia Bicheng was Secretary Li's old subordinate and his confidant. What's more, before they came down, Secretary Li told them: This time when they go to Xinlang, they must reveal the shady story of Zhenxing Steel Company's tax fraud. To uncover the truth, we must dig out the moths that colluded with Li Botang and his son to defraud the country’s taxes.
Therefore, due to the unsatisfactory progress in the past few days, they were also very anxious. Now that Director Xia proposed this plan to start from within the Local Taxation Bureau, they felt that this was indeed a good way to get twice the result with half the effort, so they quickly agreed and said that they We can start work in the afternoon. Please ask Director Xu to call all the suspected cadres from the K City Local Taxation Bureau to Xinleng.
Before the meeting started, Xia Bicheng told Zou Wenming to prepare five red envelopes worth 4,000 yuan. After the meeting, Xia Bicheng nodded to Zou Wenming and motioned for him to distribute the red envelopes to several comrades of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, and then said with a smile Said: "Everyone comes to Xinleng to assist our local tax authorities in auditing accounts, combating tax violations and crimes, and cleaning up the bugs in our local tax system. You are very busy every day. It is indeed hard work. This is a little meal fee prepared by the Xinleng County Bureau. And business trip subsidies, it’s just a small thing, please don’t take it personally, leaders, after I understand Xin Leng’s case, I will treat you to a celebratory drink when I return to the provincial capital, haha.”
Several people from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection felt a burst of joy when they saw the bulging red envelope in Zou Wenming's hand. You must know that this is a business trip subsidy and meal allowance personally issued by the director of the Provincial Local Taxation Bureau, not to mention several thousand yuan. They can accept tens of thousands of yuan without any scruples, without having to worry about anything going wrong.
Therefore, after a few polite words as usual, several comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission happily accepted the red envelope and expressed their opinions: we must work as quickly and efficiently as possible to break through this case as soon as possible and bring Li Botang to justice. Father and son brought to justice...
At the same time, in the conference room on the third floor of Building 5 of the Provincial Party Committee, a meeting on the Xinleng 5.[***] case was being held.
This meeting was proposed by Secretary Lu, and all provincial standing committee members who were at home were required to attend. Moreover, when notifying the standing committee members of the meeting, he did not ask the general office to inform the participants of the topics of the meeting in advance.
It wasn't until the meeting started, when Secretary Lu made a simple opening statement, that the Standing Committee members realized: Secretary Lu had convened such a Standing Committee meeting, and it was actually to discuss the Xinleng 5.[***] case.
After clarifying the topic of the meeting, many members of the Standing Committee were shocked: Is a murder case in Xinlang County worthy of such a serious discussion by the Provincial Committee of the Standing Committee? What is Secretary Lu selling in this gourd? medicine,
Governor Qin Ge was the first to react from his shock, and he couldn't help but feel an ominous feeling in his heart: He, Zhou Jiqing and others thought that although cases like the 5.16 murder case were related to the underworld, as a matter of law, The provincial party committee secretary will not pay attention to this case.
Moreover, when the Xinleng 5.16 murder case occurred, in order to test Secretary Lu’s reaction, Zhou Jiqing deliberately sent the 5.[***] case report from the K City Party Committee to Secretary Lu and asked him to review it. instructions,
However, Secretary Lu seemed not to be interested in the case at all at that time. Not only did he not give any instructions on the situation report, he also never asked about the case again.
Therefore, Qin Ge and others thought that their strategy of "hiding the truth from the truth" would soon be successful: as long as Secretary Lu did not pay attention to the case, Zhou Jiqing and others could gradually lead the investigation of the case and gradually point the finger at Li Runji. , Secretary Lu will be powerless if he tries to reverse the situation again,
However, they never expected that Secretary Lu would suddenly convene such a standing committee meeting at this most critical moment, and it would be a special study on the Xinleng 5.16 case. This made Zhou Jiqing and others feel chilled: Look Later, there was a very serious miscarriage of justice on his side. Secretary Lu not only did not ignore the case, but judging from his actions in convening this meeting today, he may have been paying attention to every move in this case all the time. ·
