Lu Rui didn't know that just when he was talking on the phone with Cheng Zhihua, in a small building in Shun'an County, Bi Yuntao, the county party secretary who was talking to someone with the phone in his mouth.
"Mayor, I'm really sorry, I'm worried about you." Bi Yuntao didn't look majestic in front of others, just like Zhao Ziqiang was right in front of him, bent respectfully and looked at him.
A somewhat majestic voice came from the other side of the phone and said, "Xiao Bi, I value you very much, but this time, why are you so careless?"
Bi Yuntao was stunned. He knew that Zhao Ziqiang always liked the clouds and mountains of mist when speaking. It was the first time to directly warn him like this. He quickly smiled and said, "Old leader, what do you mean?"
After coughing, Zhao Ziqiang sat in his office. After listening to Bi Yuntao’s report just now, a strange thought suddenly popped up in his mind. Could this He Jubao have changed his temperament?
He knew He Jubao's temper, and that person was definitely a character who couldn't rub the sand in his eyes. He vaguely remembered that a few years ago, the thorn led a group of people to block the county party committee's office because of the poverty alleviation funds. In the end, he and Cheng Zhihua came forward to suppress the matter. However, this time it was obvious that there was something wrong with the investment of these foreigners, but he didn't say anything?
Zhao Ziqiang didn't believe that He Jubao would be blinded by the so-called foreign investment tricks after living for so many years. Even outsiders, he could see what these foreigners should be planning, but He Jubao pretended not to know and was steadily going to sign a contract with foreigners. What medicine is sold in this gourd?
Zhao Ziqiang is a man with a strong desire for power, but he is not a greedy person. He can be said to be a representative of honest and honest style. Even his political opponents have to admit that Zhao Ziqiang is definitely worthy of admiration in his personal morality.
Hearing Bi Yuntao’s question, Zhao Ziqiang said coldly: “Tell me the truth, have those foreigners give you gifts?”
Bi Yuntao was stunned. He naturally knew in his heart that Zhao Ziqiang must not know about the fact that he had received 100,000 yuan in cash, otherwise the old leader would definitely not spare him. So he quickly patted his chest and promised: "Mayor, don't worry, why did I do such a thing? I, Bi Yuntao, have always been doing things right and going straight!"
After shaking his head slightly, Zhao Ziqiang sneered at the words of this old subordinate. How could Bi Yuntao’s actions be heard in his ears? If you don’t know, you will not do it yourself. Paper in this world cannot contain the fire. It’s just that Zhao Ziqiang has just suppressed some things because he has followed him for many years.
It is not uncommon to protect each other. The officialdom in this world is not what some people think. Except for big people, they will throw away their pawns and protect their cars. After all, they will bring out radishes and carry mud. Sometimes everyone turns a blind eye. If a leading cadre cannot even protect his confidant, who would be willing to listen to you?
You should know that whether it is a villain or a gentleman, the theory of a clique has never been broken since ancient times.
After calming down for a moment, Zhao Ziqiang said in a deep voice: "I don't care whether you confiscate the things of those foreigners or anything else. I'll give you a night to do their work. Either Bitton Company negotiates development with the Hejia Town Government. Or they give up the development plan. In short, your Shun'an County Party Committee and County Government will immediately withdraw from this matter."
Bi Yuntao was stunned and said, "Mayor, this is not suitable, that's an investment of one million US dollars."
Before he could finish speaking, he heard Zhao Ziqiang's cold voice saying: "There is nothing wrong. Unless you feel that you have the ability to bear the anger of the municipal party committee and even higher-level officials, you can pick yourself out quickly."
As soon as he said this, Bi Yuntao was stunned. He held the phone and almost couldn't stand it. Bi Yuntao stammered and asked, "Mayor, what did you say?"
He couldn't help but ask, because he was greedy for political achievements, not only had he collected other people's money, but he had also agreed to go to Hejia Town to attend the signing ceremony tomorrow. If he regretted it at this time, I'm afraid the matter might be a big deal and it would be difficult to end.
He snorted coldly, Zhao Ziqiang wished Bi Yuntao would appear in front of him now, so that he could slap him hard and let this greedy guy wake up.
"What are you thinking about? Who is He Jubao? He is the one who doesn't knead half a grain of sand in his eyes. He dared to bring people to block your county party committee office for hundreds of thousands of yuan in poverty alleviation. This time it was an investment of millions. Do you think he would nod so easily? According to your statement, he has already led people to trap Mo Zhenhai and those foreign businessmen. According to his temper, if he doesn't tie these people up and send them to you, he is not He Jubao. But it was He Jubao who actually proposed to sign a contract with foreign businessmen on behalf of Hejia Town tomorrow, and he also asked you, the person who matched the bridge, to go to the scene. What do you think they are doing?"
Bi Yuntao's throat suddenly became a little dry. He could naturally not be a fool if he could reach his current position. He quickly figured out the joints and said awkwardly: "You mean, He Jubao designed me?"
He snorted without comment, and Zhao Ziqiang said lightly: "You should be careful when speaking, they are all leading cadres. What do they design you to do?"
Bi Yuntao was already sweating on his forehead at this time and hurriedly said, "Old leader, I understand what you mean. I will let those foreign businessmen leave immediately, and I will not let some villains succeed in their plans."
Zhao Ziqiang didn't say anything, but just replied casually: "Just do it yourself. Don't forget that Hejia Town is not the world of He Jubao, and no one can stop us from our determination to attract investment." After that, he hung up the phone.
Bi Yuntao here fell into deep thought. He naturally understood what the old leader meant, and he wanted to take this opportunity to teach that guy He Jubao a lesson. But he also knew that the best result was to take down He Jubao and replace him with someone else to control Hejia Town. Although there was a little harder there, there was a good opportunity now. Since those foreigners were heading for Qingyun Mountain, there were naturally something worth their money to find. If that was there, there would be no need to worry that Hejia Town could not develop. Of course, this kind of development must be under his control, and it must not be cheaper for the old man He Jubao.
After putting down the phone, Bi Yuntao sat on the sofa and thought about it carefully. These foreign businessmen from unknown origins came to Shun'an County some time ago and took the initiative to come to him and said that he would invest one million US dollars in Shun'an to build a factory. For Shun'an County, which is determined to attract investment, it is like a big pie falling from the sky. Especially when he is seeking an increase during this period, if he can introduce this investment, it would be a foregone conclusion.
Therefore, Bi Yuntao resisted the opposition. Despite the opposition of county magistrate He Changqing, he reached an intentional cooperation agreement with Dennis and others without notifying the Hejia Town Government, and transferred the land that was extremely near Qingyun Mountain to Dennis and others at an extremely low price. In fact, he also knew that the other party would definitely not be simply so-called building a factory, but must have other plans. However, in order to promote and achieve political achievements, he selectively ignored the other party's tricks on the contract. Huang Hao was also very good at being a human being and quickly gave himself 100,000 yuan in cash.
He knew Mo Zhenhai’s private little moves, but since he had taken the benefits from others, he could no longer do anything extra. After he hesitating for a moment, he took out the 100,000 yuan from his safe, weighed it, and said to himself: “As long as you can bring this investment, Mayor Zhao will not say anything. What’s more, with that person here, he will not look at me for being unlucky no matter what he says.”
People are always like this, with a lucky mentality. They think that there will be "if" in what they do, and they will not regret it until something happens.
Early the next morning, Lu Rui got up early, cleaned up and came to the town government office, but saw someone already setting up a table, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Lu Rui greeted Ma Xiangdong, who was commanding the worker, and then came to He Jubao's office.
He Jubao was telling He Guoli and others something, and there were a few middle-aged men next to him. Seeing Lu Rui coming in, He Jubao said with a smile: "Xiao Lu, come on, I'll introduce you to a few people."
Lu Rui walked to the sofa and heard He Jubao pointing at him and said, "This is Secretary Lu, who is a new member of our town. He is a college student in the city. If he hadn't been there yesterday, my old man would have been fooled by those foreign devils. Let me tell you, if Secretary Xiao Lu goes to the countryside in the future, whoever dares to make trouble for him, I will smash his window!"
The middle-aged men laughed and said, "You have spoken out of no matter where the old secretary said, so how dare we neglect it."
As he said that, he turned around and introduced himself to Lu Rui. After a while, Lu Rui realized that these people were the village party branch secretaries of six natural villages under Hejia Town, and they were all the real farmers who grew up in He Jubao.
Seeing these simple faces, because I heard that I had stopped the foreigners from entering the mountain yesterday, I smiled sincerely at myself. Lu Rui's heart felt a warmth, and the hesitation and entanglement of last night disappeared.
He also thought about whether it was worth it if he did this. After all, if he remained silent, he would leave here after a few years and would not be affected at all. Once he participated in this matter, it would be involved in some struggles of the municipal party committee. It has to be said that doing so would not actually be of any benefit to his career.
But when Lu Rui saw these people's sincere smiles, the softest part in his heart was deeply touched. This is our Chinese people. As long as they can make them eat and wear warmth and be a little better to them, they will be grateful to you. Lu Rui knew that he had no reason to watch those people take away the wealth that originally belonged to the people of Hejia Town.
As a Chinese, a flesh-and-blood Chinese man, Lu Rui's conscience makes him unable to retreat!
