Great Doctor Without Borders

Chapter 1408 Troublesome
Mei Ruxue said: "We can't let him go. We have to deal with him according to the established procedures." After she said that, she hung up the phone.

Xu Chunliang bumped into her hard from behind, and Mei Ruxue was so angry that she pinched Xu Chunliang's thigh hard with her backhand.

Xu Chunliang said: "It's just a small matter. At most, I can correct my attitude and behave well. We can solve our internal affairs internally. There is no need to magnify the impact, right?"

Mei Ruxue corrected him, "This is not a matter between you and me. Think about it, it should be the Jeju police who came, so why did they let you come? They just thought you were familiar with us and wanted to make a big deal out of a small matter. This is deliberately confusing the concepts of public and private."

Xu Chunliang said: "I'm here now, so just let him go. As I said before, you should pay what you owe. There is nothing that can't be solved by a fine."

Mei Ruxue hesitated for a moment and whispered, "I can't make the decision on this matter."

Xu Chunliang thought to himself, Mei Ruxue actually said that she had no say in what happened in Binhu New District. Needless to say, it must be the higher-ups who gave the order. Could it be that Dongzhou wanted to take advantage of this incident to cause trouble?
The two of them lay on the sofa hugging each other, and in the darkness Xu Chunliang gently stroked Mei Ruxue's hair.

Mei Ruxue suddenly threw herself into his arms, hugged him tightly, and sobbed softly.

Xu Chunliang gently kissed away the tears on her face and said softly, "It's okay if it's difficult. I don't blame you. Let's not take public affairs so seriously."

Mei Ruxue said: "I'm tired."

Xu Chunliang said: "Then I'll leave?"

Mei Ruxue's delicate body twisted, and wrapped around him like ivy. Xu Chunliang knew what she was thinking.

The night becomes extremely gentle at this moment...

Xu Chunliang took the first ferry in the morning back to Weishan Island. On the way, he and Zhao Hong made an appointment to have breakfast at a breakfast stall in the center of Hushan Town.

Zhao Hong stayed at home last night and looked a little listless. He probably took the opportunity of this business trip to pay the public grain he owed to his family during this period.

Xu Chunliang picked up a fried dough stick and put it on Zhao Hong's plate: "Eat a few more, like to like, like to eat."

Zhao Hong couldn't help laughing: "It's useless to eat more of this stuff, it's empty inside." He drank a mouthful of eel gluten soup and said with emotion: "Even though there is only a little lake between them, the eating habits on both sides are different."

Xu Chunliang said: "After all, they are two provinces. They drink from the same lake, but everyone can tell the difference."

Zhao Hong said: "I have basically found out what happened here. It was the tourists from the one-day tour group who started the trouble. Except for a pregnant woman who fell and got a little scared, the others only had superficial injuries. The biggest problem now is how to judge the injury of the pregnant woman and whether the fetus in her belly was frightened."

Xu Chunliang actually understood the situation better than he did. After all, he had a thorough discussion with Secretary Mei last night. Xu Chunliang sighed and said, "It's not a big deal, but it's a bit complicated."

Zhao Hong said: "That's right. In the past, this kind of thing was easy to solve. I don't know what happened this time." He smiled and said: "My identity is quite sensitive, so I can't say anything careless."

Xu Chunliang said: "I understand."

Zhao Hongdao: "Did you meet Secretary Mei yesterday?"

Xu Chunliang shook his head: "We had a phone call. Her attitude was very firm. She said that the matter must be handled strictly and impartially." Thinking of Secretary Mei, his heart warmed up again. It was not just a phone call last night.

Zhao Hong said: "Director Xu, let me tell you something you don't want to hear. You shouldn't have accepted this matter."

Xu Chunliang said, "That's right. I was tricked by Jiang Qiyong. He is a hands-off boss. Whenever he encounters trouble, he will think of me first."

Zhao Hong laughed, "You two went to Jeju together. You are the person he trusts and relies on the most in the Jeju Culture and Tourism Bureau. It is normal for him to hand this matter over to you. From another perspective, doesn't this prove that you have a good relationship?"

Xu Chunliang said: "Never mind, we can't control this matter."

Zhao Hong was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?"

Xu Chunliang said, "You still don't understand. This matter is beyond our capabilities. Anyway, we have come here, met the people we should meet, and explained to the leaders."

At this time, Jiang Qiyong called and Xu Chunliang got up and went to the side to answer the phone.

Jiang Qiyong asked: "Chunliang, what's the situation?"

Xu Chunliang briefly explained the situation, emphasizing that the local departments were not cooperating and things were difficult to handle.

Jiang Qiyong said: "It's definitely not easy to do. Even if it's easy, I won't give it to you."

Xu Chunliang said, "Thank you." He quietly completed the sentence in his heart, I thank your ancestors for eight generations.

Jiang Qiyong smiled embarrassedly: "Chunliang, have you met Secretary Mei? Ask her to release the tourists first. The matter should be handled as it should be. You can't detain people for no reason, right? Ease the conflict first, and everything will be easy to discuss." Xu Chunliang said: "You make it sound easy. They didn't attack for no reason. The problem now is that a pregnant woman was frightened in the conflict and is still in the hospital. The situation is unclear. The nature of the matter depends on her condition. If she loses her baby, it will be a big deal."

Jiang Qiyong said: "But we can't detain all the tourists, right?"

Xu Chunliang said, "Why can't they detain them? The situation was so chaotic at the time. All the tourists in the one-day tour group were involved in the conflict and are all suspects. They won't release them until the investigation is complete. I say, Director Jiang, the police should come and negotiate with them about this matter. Why should our Cultural and Tourism Bureau take over?"

Jiang Qiyong said, "I originally thought it was a small matter, and the tourists from this one-day tour first contacted our Cultural and Tourism Bureau. Chunliang, you just need to work harder and find out the whole situation first. I will contact the police and try to get them to take over the case."

Xu Chunliang said: "Okay, I'll try harder."

After hanging up the phone, he saw a person not far away looking at him with a big grin. It was his former driver Zhang Haitao.

Zhang Haitao had seen Xu Chunliang a long time ago, but he didn't say hello right away because he was on the phone. When he saw Xu Chunliang hung up the phone, he hurried over and said, "Director Xu, what brought you to the island? You didn't even tell me in advance so I could prepare."

Xu Chunliang said: "I'm on a business trip, have you had breakfast?"

Zhang Haitao shook his head, and Xu Chunliang asked him to join in.

Zhang Haitao and Zhao Hong were old acquaintances. After sitting down, he called out to Captain Zhao with a smile, and then said to the breakfast shop owner, "It's all mine."

Zhao Hong told him that the bill had already been paid.

Xu Chunliang asked Zhang Haitao about it. One day, a group of tourists beat up merchants, which caused quite a stir on the island. As a local, Zhang Haitao also paid attention to it. According to what he learned, if the police had not arrived at the scene in time, those tourists would have been beaten to a pulp.

Zhang Haitao said angrily: "I don't understand what they are so crazy about. They came to our territory and showed off their power. They even dared to attack people first, including a pregnant woman."

Xu Chunliang asked: "Who told you that?"

"That's what they say, Director Xu. Actually, we've been feeling very frustrated these years. Weishan Lake belongs to everyone, but whenever our boats reach Jeju waters, they're either fined or detained. Not to mention fishing boats, they even dare to do this to cruise ships."

Zhao Hong coughed, suggesting Zhang Haitao to be careful with his words. Although Xu Chunliang was from Dongzhou, he was now working in the Jeju Culture and Tourism Bureau. Zhang Haitao's words were too pointed, and it was clear that he was seizing the opportunity to settle old and new accounts together.

Zhang Haitao didn't understand what he meant and continued, "In terms of economy, population, and domestic influence, how can Jeju compare to Dongzhou? But they bully us all the time. They have water police, don't we? Why should we let them bully us?"

Xu Chunliang glanced at Zhao Hong, who gave a helpless smile.

Zhang Haitao then realized that he might have said something too much and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not very careful with my words, please don't take it seriously, leaders."

Xu Chunliang said: "It's okay, we are all from Dongzhou."

Zhang Haitao nodded and said, "That's right. Anyway, I think that this incident is all Jeju's fault. We must not let them off easily. We must teach them a lesson."

Xu Chunliang and Zhao Hong finished their breakfast and left first. Zhang Haitao wanted to see them off, but Xu Chunliang waved his hand and told him not to follow him.

After walking a distance, Zhao Hong sighed and said, "Did you hear that? Zhang Haitao's words represent the general voice of the local people. When the boundary of Weishan Lake was demarcated in the past, Jeju took a big advantage and took away more than half. We in Dongzhou suffered a loss in public."

Xu Chunliang said: "What's the point of taking advantage and suffering a loss? Can't you expand your vision a little? This is the country's place."

"That's what they said, but the local people don't think so. In the past, there were many conflicts between the two places for resources, and even deaths. The situation has eased a bit in the past two years, but since the country designated this tourist resort, the two sides have started competing for resources again. Director Xu, you are very clear about this."

Xu Chunliang nodded: "I still underestimated the opposition among the people."

Zhao Hongdao said: "In two provinces and two cities, the people don't regard each other as their own people at all. In addition, the law enforcement standards of both sides are different, and this psychological deviation is getting bigger and bigger."

Xu Chunliang said: "The reason we asked you to exchange law enforcement is to strengthen communication and avoid these situations from happening."

Zhao Hong shook his head: "It's not easy to solve this problem. Director Xu, what should we do next?"

Xu Chunliang said, "Go home and keep an eye on the follow-up development of this matter. They want to find out the situation, but they don't want us to intervene. Let them find out first. Anyway, they can't keep people here forever."

Zhao Hong said, "What do the higher-ups say?"

Xu Chunliang said: "Although I agreed to come, I can't guarantee that I can solve the problem. Whoever thinks he can solve it can come."
