The officialdom of rebirth

Chapter 256 Waiting for You

It's so strange that Xian'er is gone, she's such an adult, she can't go anywhere, it's normal, besides, hasn't she been elusive these days?

Chen Yang has a lot of urgent things to do now, and he doesn't care about these trivial children's personal affairs at all, so he doesn't care too much about the call from Li Qiuhe, he just thinks that Xian'er is in a mood and even Li Qiuhe doesn't want to contact her In the end, he didn't say a few words on the phone, because someone came to report to him again, so he hung up the phone.

In fact, his judgment was also very correct. Ji Xian'er was indeed doing well when the Crackdown Office hit hard and gained a lot of money. The information that the Crackdown Office had in advance this time was sent to Li Zhixian of the Municipal Bureau through an anonymous mobile phone. Speaking of which, the reliable information she provided was the key to the seizure of this large amount of smuggled goods by the Crackdown Office.It's just that Ji Xian'er didn't know that while she was frequently providing accurate reports to the Xizhou police, the danger had gradually shrouded her head like a dark cloud.

She didn't even notice this at all. At this moment, she ran back to the provincial capital leisurely and continued to play with her Infernal Affairs.

On the Xizhou side, Chen Yang couldn't relax at all, because he soon discovered that although the smuggled goods intercepted this time were stolen, they caused him an unexpected trouble.

On the second day after returning to Xizhou, not long after going to work, the red dedicated line on the desk rang.

This red dedicated line is used by the top leaders of the provincial party committee to contact the top leaders of the cities below to inquire about the situation. Every top leader in the city has one on their desktop. Chen Yang quickly picked it up. To his surprise, the caller was not The secretary of the high-level provincial party committee was actually the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee with whom he had a suspicion, and now the acting governor of Lingxi province, Zhang Guofang, personally called.

"Comrade Chen Yang? Our provincial government, Zhang Guofang, heard that you detained several cargo ships that entered the country illegally the night before yesterday. Is this true?" Governor Zhang's words were very concise, and he couldn't tell that he had anything to do with Chen Yang at all. Ambivalence, a businesslike tone.

After Chen Yang heard this, his heart sank. Although he still didn't know the specific purpose of Zhang Guofang's call to him, it was obvious that Governor Zhang came to intervene in this matter.

But he was not in a hurry to refuse. Wu Zhenbang got through Zhang Guofang's relationship years ago, and after going through the formalities disgustingly, he fished out the goods he planted in the anti-smuggling office last time. I accidentally let the other party take advantage of the loopholes, this time he is not busy, first listen to see if the other party has any grandiose excuses this time?

So he quickly replied in a deep voice: "Yes, Governor Zhang, at about halfway last night, the Nangang Joint Law Enforcement Team received a reliable tip that a large number of smuggled goods were about to enter the country illegally, and then took immediate action and successfully intercepted them." The four illegally entered smuggling boats are the only situation for the time being, and I plan to wait for the specific situation here to be verified before forming a document and reporting to the province."

After Zhang Guofang listened to Chen Yang's brief introduction, he gave a nasal "um" to express his approval, and then expressed his intentions: "Comrade Chen Yang, I just had someone here to report the situation, because it is about your this time. The seized cargo ships involved a Hong Kong businessman who was negotiating a large investment with the provincial government, so I came here to ask you about the specific situation."

Chen Yang was not surprised when he heard the words. After preliminary inspection, the four cargo ships intercepted last night were indeed ocean-going cargo ships registered with the Hong Kong Marine Department. They were genuine Hong Kong ships, but the cargo in the ships came from all over the world.

It’s just that Zhang Guofang chatted a few words next, but he was greatly surprised. According to Zhang Guofang’s disclosure, the cargo intercepted by Nangang was not Wu Zhenbang’s, but a company called Hong Kong Ocean Trading Company. The company is not Wu Zhenbang's leather bag company overseas, but a branch of the Ho Group, a large and well-known transportation group in Hong Kong, and the destination of this batch of goods is not intended to be shipped to the mainland, but It was intended to be transported to Taiwan, but because of the weather, the captain accidentally made a wrong course, and ended up driving the ship into the Nangang waters in a daze, which had nothing to do with smuggling.

Moreover, after learning that the goods were temporarily detained, the Hong Kong company was very anxious and immediately reported the situation to Sir He, the chairman of the parent company who was negotiating a large-scale logistics investment project with the provincial government. Sir He also expressed his anxiety and immediately contacted Governor Zhang, I hope that the inland government will see that he has invested a lot in the mainland, and eliminate this little misunderstanding caused by the captain's work mistakes. He expressed his deep apologies for the interference caused by his work, and even hinted that Governor Zhang would give some preferential treatment to Lingxi in the next negotiation on the logistics project, which can be regarded as making up for the interference of his employees with local work.

Governor Zhang introduced the situation he knew, and after revealing his intentions cryptically, he was about to hang up the phone. Before he hung up, he still said in an official tone: "Of course, you are Xi As the top leader of the state, how to deal with the matter is up to you. I have only two opinions. One is to crack down on smuggling crimes and other illegal acts that disrupt the normal economic order of the country, and never tolerate them, but the scale must be grasped Well, you can’t overcorrect, and you can’t cause adverse effects; the second is to take a prudent attitude towards the investigation of foreign-related vessels,”

After a pause, he was afraid that Chen Yang would be dull and could not understand what he said, so he said with some emotion: "Comrade Chen Yang, I will also explain to you here, I believe you also know that the provincial government plans to The central government attaches great importance to this project, and it is also a large-scale project that Secretary Dongliang personally contacted. He is currently in the final negotiation with the He Group. Since your matter involves the He Group, the scale here You must grasp it well, if the crackdown on smuggling affects the investment enthusiasm of Hong Kong businessmen who come to our Lingxi area, the loss outweighs the gain.”

After saying these heartfelt words, Governor Zhang hung up the phone, leaving Chen Yang with a big question mark and exclamation point so that after he put down the phone, he frowned for more than ten minutes , did not say a word.

Judging from Sir He's explanation, or the implication of Governor Zhang's phone call, as far as this matter is concerned, it is all a misunderstanding.

However, in his opinion, instead of a huge misunderstanding, it was more like a huge joke.The only thing that surprised him was that after hearing what Zhang Guofang said, it is possible that these goods were really not Wu Zhenbang. As for this rich Hong Kong man who claimed to be the owner of the goods, he had never dealt with them, and he did not know him at all.

Of course, Chen Yang has heard about the construction of the largest logistics base in Asia in Tiezhou mentioned in Zhang Guofang's words. The central government really attaches great importance to this project, and it was brought up at the last APEC meeting Originally, when Secretary Liu was here, the project should have been planned to be located in Xizhou, but after He Dongliang came to power, he contacted the investor in person, and at the same time changed the address, and chose a railway station with much worse geographical conditions than Xizhou. state this project.

At present, all parts of the country are in a state of hunger and thirst for large and small investments, and rich foreign businessmen have become guests of local governments. It is no wonder that Governor Zhang rushed to Chen Yang immediately after hearing the news. The phone call, while understanding the situation, also expressed the provincial position. If that bird, Mr. He, took the attitude of not staying here and keeping his own place, and leaving in a rage, it would indeed make the provincial party committee The government is in a very awkward position.

The original intention of Chen Yang's move was not to target that Hong Kong guy, and he didn't know that Sir Bird. His goal was only one from the beginning to the end, which was to let Wu Zhenbang survive and die, so as to comfort the undead underground. It is even more out of the question to say that he deliberately wanted to make trouble with the province.

,

Of course, with Chen Yang's consistent work style of stern and selfless, one size counts for one size. Now that all the evidence shows that the four cargo ships are suspected of major smuggling, it can only be considered bad luck for them if they fall into his hands, and deal with them according to the regulations. is required.As for the embarrassment of the provincial party committee and the provincial government, that's none of his business. Anyway, he doesn't expect to have anything to do with these two leaders, and if the province is not satisfied and wants to intervene forcefully, then he doesn't mind putting When the matter got to the center, it would be time to see who had an ugly face.

Once he made up his mind, his brows relaxed, but there was still a small doubt in his heart. Judging from all aspects of the situation, it was impossible for Wu Zhenbang to admit defeat obediently in Xizhou, and watched him work hard. The big development company that he built for half his life collapsed, and he became a penniless pauper, but now the goods are obviously not his, at least Zhang Guofang's words don't seem to be false, and there is really no need for a well-known rich man in Hong Kong to come forward Top the tank for him, but if none of this is possible, what about his goods?Could it be that he really didn't do anything these days, just waiting for the pie to fall from the sky?

No, it is absolutely impossible that this news was provided by Li Zhixian's informant, and the facts have proved that this is not a fake news.

Chen Yang shook his head violently, and then, he opened the drawer again, took out his personal mobile phone, quickly flipped through the phone book, found an unfamiliar phone number easily, and pressed the connect button without hesitation.

"Drip~~~Drip~~~"

There was a long ring tone from the handset, um, the phone is connected.

It's a pity that it rang for about half a minute, but no one answered.

"What the hell are you not answering my call?"

Chen Yang frowned slightly, thought for a while, and was about to put the phone away again, when the phone buzzed and vibrated, the LCD screen flickered, and a text message popped up.

"Dongtai a203 cargo ship, which entered the port that night, is suspicious."

Even though there are far away radio waves and only a few words, one can easily feel the panic and nervousness of this person when replying to this text message.

Dongtai a203?

This ship also entered the port that night?What is suspicious?

After Chen Yang repeated these key words several times, his face suddenly sank. What happened, could it be that Wu Zhenbang played a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain?

Thinking of this, an ominous premonition rose in his heart.Indeed, if his guess is correct, it has been almost 48 hours now, and no matter how slow the customs work efficiency is, I am afraid that the cargo on this ship will not know where it has been shipped for a long time.

Damn, this internal line is really unreliable. If I hadn't called by myself, I am afraid that the other party would not have said a word.

Chen Yang couldn't help showing a trace of anger in his heart. He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. Then he put the phone back and immediately dialed Li Zhixian's cell phone from the fixed phone on the table: "Zhixian? , I just received news from the province that this batch of goods does not belong to Wu Zhenbang, so, please contact your informant as soon as possible to ask the other party what happened in the middle."

"Secretary, I have been contacting 'Golden Sparrow' since last night, but I haven't heard back yet."

Li Zhixian had never met this informant who voluntarily surrendered, he only knew that the other party called himself Jinque.

Chen Yang frowned secretly when he heard the words, and said in a deep voice: "Continue to contact, and reply to me as soon as you have any news."

"Yes, secretary."

"Oh, by the way, and also, you immediately arrange for someone to quietly check all the customs entry records that night to see if there is a cargo ship named Dongtai A203. If you have any suspicious information, report it to me immediately."

"Okay, I know."

The situation progressed quickly, and Li Zhixian heard back half an hour later. After investigation, it was indeed a cargo ship named "Dongtai No. a203" that docked at Xingang Wharf that night. According to the customs declaration materials, the ship was loaded with ten The wool imported from Argentina was imported by Gandong Garment Company to make woolen sweaters from abroad, and the inspection list issued by the customs also showed that the goods were of good quality and no problems were found. The goods were released, and the goods had already been transported away by the owner in the evening. It is estimated that if it is fast, the woolen sweaters can be sampled.

Hearing this news, Chen Yang couldn't help but feel the frustration of letting the tiger go back to the mountain. In desperation, the only thing he could do was to let the police continue to send more people to watch over this batch of wool.

However, he had not had time to continue to thoroughly investigate the wool. Two days later, Nangang had the result. It was verified that the four cargo ships belonging to the Hong Kong Ocean Group were suspected of major smuggling, and the amount of money involved The case is huge, and the case has been solved almost without investigation. It only needs to be handed over to the procuratorate to file the case and handle it according to law.

However, what Chen Yang didn't expect was that this case, which was clearly a certainty, encountered unprecedented resistance. After receiving the written report on the case from Xizhou, the provincial government has been holding back and refusing to approve it. Obviously, it was procrastinated The trick is to wait for a while to see the situation.

And some pervasive Hong Kong and Guangdong media and some local media in Lingxi did not know where to get some inside information, and published articles one after another, making critical publicity on the matter from their own perspectives. At the same time, the major media It has been reported that the Hong Kong Ho Group involved in the case intends to suspend negotiations with the Lingxi Provincial Government on the establishment of an Asia-Pacific logistics base in Tiezhou City because it feels the unfriendly atmosphere in Lingxi.

All in all, things tend to get worse.

Under pressure, the province immediately sent a case-handling team jointly composed of the Provincial Public Security Bureau, the Lingxi General Administration of Customs and other departments to officially settle in Xizhou, intending to take over the case. Chen Yang could only obey the organization because his arms could not twist his thighs. But at the same time, with the fearless attitude of self-isolation from Lingxi official circles, he wrote two case materials in person without hesitation, and submitted them by leapfrogging, one to the General Office of the Central State Council, and the other to the State Customs Department.

After handing over the materials, Chen Yang couldn't relax. Just three days after he sent the materials, the provincial party committee called him over with a phone call. In addition to showing unusual concern, he ordered Chen Yang to immediately cooperate with the working group assigned by the provincial party committee to carry out work, and at the same time severely criticized Chen Yang's unorganized and undisciplined practices in person.

But the funny thing is that this huge amount of smuggling case finally alarmed the top officials of the central government because of the black material that Chen Yang stabbed upwards. In the end, a working group led by the State General Administration of Customs came down from the central government. After taking over the right to hear the case, everyone in the province and city stood aside.

Only in this way, Chen Yang's life in Lingxi became more and more difficult. According to the gossip, after Secretary He learned of the attitude of the central government, in front of a group of Standing Committee members of the Provincial Party Committee, he made a routine meeting with the Standing Committee. He got angry at the meeting, and even scolded his mother in a very uneducated manner.

For Chen Yang, this week has been in dire straits. The only good news is that Li Zhixian finally got in touch with "Gold Sparrow". The surrender was quite thorough, and he readily agreed to continue to help check whether there is a batch of private goods.

"Golden Sparrow" is of course the Ji Xian'er who puts aside her business and concentrates on playing Infernal Affairs.

In fact, she is also paying close attention to the development of this matter. After hearing that the Xizhou side seized smuggled goods worth about 30 billion yuan, she was really excited for a long time, but soon the news came from various media, big and small. This time, Xizhou seized goods from the Hong Kong He Group. Others did not know, but she was aware of the close relationship between He Laogui and Wu Zhenbang. A nest of rats, the devil knows whose goods it is, and she doesn't need to know these things, she only knows that she has done something for Chen Yang.

Of course, she was still very careful. After playing for a few days and disappearing, she cautiously contacted Li Zhixian from the Xizhou Municipal Bureau again. Li Zhixian had been waiting for a call from her girl. , Immediately conveyed Secretary Chen's meaning, especially what Secretary Chen was most concerned about, where the cargo on the ship went, and explained to her.She was also straightforward, and immediately said that she could help to continue the investigation, and made an appointment for the next meeting.

She thought well, and it was almost time to make the last order, and it was time to stop.After all, no matter how stupid Wu Zhenbang is, he can still guess that there is a ghost in his den after such a big incident.Besides, wandering outside these days, she has long been tired of this kind of life. She used to live alone for a long time, and she didn't find it difficult at the time, but now that she has been with Chen Yang for these years, she is not used to it. If she hadn't been able to go to Xizhou to hide in the dark to see Chen Yang from time to time, she might not be able to hold back.

Just do what you say, within two days after contacting Li Zhixian, she first found an unremarkable small teahouse in the downtown area of ​​the provincial capital, and then called Wu Yong who had been wandering around the provincial capital with her for more than two months. over here.

Wu Yong is living a very comfortable life these days, he handles the tasks assigned by Mr. Ji very quickly, and the bonus is paid out in a hurry. He has only stayed in Lingxi for more than two months, and he seems to have a rounder belly. lock up.

When he appeared in the small teahouse, he was wearing a brand new brand-name suit, his hair was combed smoothly, and there was a black bulging handbag under his armpit. He looked like a successful person in a shopping mall. Ji Xian'er, who was leisurely drinking fragrant tea, immediately showed his true colors again, almost trotting all the way to the edge of the booth, and gave a flattering smile: "Mr. I kept you waiting for a long time."

"I've only been here for a while." Ji Xian'er smiled casually, then gracefully pointed to the empty seat opposite, "Sit down and we'll talk."

"Eh, okay."

Wu Yong cheerfully responded, and before his butt touched the chair, he immediately bowed and picked up the antique teapot on the table, and helped Ji Xianer fill up the teacup thoughtfully, then poured himself another cup, sat down down.

"How is the situation recently?" Ji Xian'er asked in a very general way. She has been hiding behind the scenes all this time. She has never met Gao Qiang in person, and even Wu Yong made all the phone calls. If Gao Qiang, who didn't know where he died, hadn't watched the surveillance before he died, he probably wouldn't know until his death that she was the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Recently, I have been keeping in touch with Gao Qiang, but he sent a text message saying that something happened in Nangang, and the limelight is very tight. His boss seems to be suspicious. This time may not be as convenient as before."

Wu Yong reported in a low voice, how did he know that the person who is now in touch with him by text message is not the high-ranking person he bribed back then.

Ji Xian'er frowned slightly, although she also felt that the limelight was really tight now, but she hesitated for a moment as she was eager to make a contribution, and then ordered: "Wu Yong, you can send him a text message later and ask him to check it out." Find out if Wu Zhenbang has taken any special actions recently, such as whether he organized the supply of prohibited goods from other places."

Wu Yong said yes, and then took out his mobile phone to send a text message in front of Ji Xian'er.

As everyone knows, once this text message was sent, his little life would most likely end in Lingxi.

Of course, the same is true of his boss, Ji Xian'er.Others are waiting for them to throw themselves into the trap.
