Minister Tang's back was covered in a cold sweat.
He finally figured out where Xiao Zheng got his confidence from!
That's right, the Dragon Group was his biggest backer in this competition!
Minister Jin and Mr. Hu seemed to be tough, but in this competition, it was very easy for them to fall into a situation where they had no way to exert their strength. After all, Minister Tang had 10,000 reasonable reasons to tell those big shots that they were operating normally. They did not deliberately make things difficult for them.
After all, this project had nothing to do with Minister Jin and the others. If he insisted on standing up, it would inevitably be a laughing stock.
The most taboo thing for a person in the officialdom was to be caught by others.
That was why Minister Tang was so bold and unscrupulous.
But now, he seemed to understand a problem.
What he was doing was blocking the Long Formation from making a fortune!
In other words, the famous Long Formation was crying piteously for food, operating their small business within the scope permitted by the high-level officials.
But in the end, Minister Tang still managed to snatch away such a small business!
What did this mean?
Was he determined to starve the Long Formation to death?
Even the leaders had taken a step back and turned a blind eye to it. What ability did Minister Tang have to rely on his own strength and the connections in his hands to starve the Dragon Group to death?
Minister Tang was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat. For a moment, he did not know how to answer.
Everyone saw Minister Tang's complicated expression, and there was a clear trace of panic in his eyes. They also unconsciously became uneasy.
It turned out that the backer of this project was none other than the Long Formation. Moreover, the document had the signature and seal of the Long Formation, which also proved it. This deal directly involved the investment of the Long Formation …
Even the big leaders would not ask about the deal, but the group of economic officials confronted it head-on. Wasn't it courting death?
It should be noted that the Long Formation was famous for its arrogance. Even the commanders of the major military regions were afraid to avoid it. They were afraid to provoke this group of people who did not care about their lives. But this group of economic officials —
Xiao Zheng gently knocked on the table and said calmly, "Minister Tang, I gave you a chance. But you didn't cherish it. You even blamed me for pretending. What a pity. "
Pa pa!
Xiao Zheng clapped his hands for the second time. In an instant, more than ten fully armed Long Formation Warriors swarmed into the room. The Long Formation Battalion Leader, Jiang Qing, took the lead and stood beside the dining table. His arrogance caused people to be alarmed.
"Well, all the officials for the approval should be here," Xiao Zheng said casually as he looked around expressionlessly. "Captain Jiang, I don't need to teach you what to do, right?"
"Take him away!"
As soon as Jiang Qing gave the order, the Long Formation Warriors, who had already figured out their targets, immediately came before the four main officials. Director Li was one of them.
"What are you doing!?"
Director Li slammed the table and stood up, shouting angrily, "We are government officials, what right does the Long Formation have to arrest us!?"
Jiang Qing stood with his arms behind his back and strode toward Director Li. "You want a reason? It's simple. "
Jiang Qing paused for a moment, his eyes glinting coldly. "I now suspect you of treason and conspiring to dismantle the Long Formation of the Military Commission!"
"Take them away."
As soon as Jiang Qing finished speaking, the Long Formation Warriors forcefully escorted the officials away.
"You have the right to remain silent, but I will present everything you say to the military court!" Jiang Qing said, emphasizing each word. Extraordinary.
Going to the military court?
The officials were so scared that their legs turned to jelly, and their faces turned pale.
This is so unfair!
He had been wrongly accused to his grandmother's house!
Isn't it just a delay in the approval? On a smaller scale, it's just that I was too busy with work and didn't have the time to take care of you. On a larger scale, isn't it a dereliction of duty?
This is f * cking treason! Do you have to go so far!?
The officials finally realized the toughness of the Long Formation. No wonder some of the higher ups wanted to go all the way and forcibly split the Long Formation.
It seemed that they were not the first batch of civil officials to be punished by the Long Formation.
This is unfair!
If they were sent to the military court, their political future would be completely ruined. Which leader would be willing to promote the subordinates who were notorious and had offended the Long Formation? Who didn't want to be promoted and make a fortune in peace?
A few years ago, perhaps the administrative officials would not be too afraid of the Long Formation. After all, the system was different. There was not much conflict of interest. But now, the Long Formation was a world-famous existence. It had the support of the higher ups. It had the support of the public.
It was like an iron plate!
Before the officials were taken away, they all stole sad and desperate looks at Minister Tang.
Now, the only thing they could count on was Minister Tang, the manipulator behind the scenes.
The old leader couldn't just focus on the head and ignore the tail, which would disappoint his old subordinates!
Xiao Zheng's words were like a spear, they had finally reached this step.
Everything that should be taken away was taken away, and the private room was deserted for a while. Other than the two or three old subordinates of Minister Tang, there was only Minister Tang, who had a solemn and dejected expression.
Xiao Zheng, who was sitting at the side, was calmly drinking tea and eating. His face was filled with satisfaction.
After drinking two and a half liters of white wine, Xiao Zheng's stomach was burning. He had to eat something to suppress it.
At this moment, every second of silence in the private room was an endless pressure on Minister Tang's side. It was so oppressive that even breathing became more and more difficult.
"Minister Tang, I'm puzzled." Xiao Zheng put down his chopsticks, picked up a hot towel to wipe the corner of his mouth, and glanced at Minister Tang. "I have no enmity with Director Li and the others. Before today, I haven't even seen them. Why did they block our project for no reason? Could it be that there is someone behind this? "
When Minister Tang heard this, he immediately explained, "It might just be a mistake in work."
He couldn't admit this.
Otherwise, his subordinates would really miss an excellent opportunity to improve.
That was how politics was. Every step had to be taken with extreme caution. No matter how high they climbed, as long as there was someone above them. It was possible that they would return to the state before liberation.
"Possible? But? "Xiao Zheng narrowed his eyes and asked. "Minister Tang, I don't accept your excuses."
Minister Tang cursed in his heart. I don't want you to accept them!
"Do you think I should investigate further?" Xiao Zheng said slowly. "The Long Formation is completely enraged this time. If I don't find someone to vent, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to vent. "
"There's an old saying that cutting off someone's wealth is like killing their parents. It's a heinous crime, "Xiao Zheng concluded.
"We're all friends. There's no need to make a big deal out of it. It's best to keep the peace. I believe we can find a reasonable solution, "Minister Tang explained.
Bang!
Xiao Zheng slapped the table and shouted angrily, "What bullsh * t friends?!"
His voice was so loud and resonant that not only Minister Tang who was sitting at the side was shocked. Even those officials, who didn't dare to breathe loudly, were so frightened by Xiao Zheng that they almost fell off their chairs.
