Wang Wenchao might not have the ability to solve the problem, so Lu Yiwei didn't make things difficult for him. He changed the subject: "How much do you know about the Wang brothers?"
Since it was already out in the open, he might as well say it. Wang Wenchao said unhurriedly, "In Long 'an, there is no one who doesn't know about the Wang Brothers. Even in Nanzhou City, they are very famous. The two brothers had a hard life. Their parents passed away when they were young, and they grew up with the help of their friends and relatives. The eldest, Wang Zhiquan, left Long An at the age of 15. As for where he went, no one knows. Later, I heard that he went to Hong Kong and joined a gang. Later, he went to Shenzhen and guarded a place for others. Because he killed someone, he was imprisoned for more than ten years.
"Until the early 90's, he came back from outside and brought back a large sum of money. He contracted Yong 'an Town's coal mine and started his road to riches. After more than ten years, he made a lot of money. He also established Xin Heng Group and developed real estate in Long An, Nanzhou and other places. He also made a fortune. In Nanzhou City's list of entrepreneurs, the two brothers' names are on it.
"Wang Zhiquan is a quick-witted person with a glib tongue. He is very good at interpersonal relationships. I heard that he has connections in the central government and the provincial government. He gets along very well with the city's leaders. As for his younger brother, Wang Zhian, he is brave, aggressive, and daring. There is no one in Long An who isn't afraid of him. When his brother wasn't around, he mainly relied on stealing to make a living. He raised a large group of people to steal in groups. Not only in Long 'an City, but also in the surrounding counties and cities. Long' an City was called the Little Thief County, and it was from then on. "
"Now, the two have become entrepreneurs. Wang Zhiquan is also a member of the Municipal People's Political Consultative Conference, mainly in charge of the real estate business. And Wang Zhian is mainly in the coal mine business. He is second to none in Long An. "
Lu Yiwei had been in politics for so many years. He had seen a lot of rich people, and he had witnessed them becoming a billionaire from poverty. Niu Fuyong was the most typical representative. These people had a common characteristic. When they were accumulating capital, they all carried the original sin of sin, even blood. After cleaning themselves up, they became entrepreneurs in a dignified manner. Some even entered the political world and were at the peak of their popularity.
It was said that coal was black gold with blood. How many unknown crimes were hidden behind the red GDP? And now, the price of coal was still rising. It was rising crazily. In the past, a ton of coal was less than a hundred dollars, but now it had risen to more than a thousand dollars. Earning a million a day was not a dream. He just had to increase the speed of mining. Niu Fuyong's three coal mines could mine thousands of tons of coal a day. Behind the greed, more people entered a state of madness. It could be seen that it was reasonable for Xinsheng Coal Mine and Longjiang Coal Industry to compete for coal resources.
There were many things that could not be investigated in depth. If one did not let go, no company would be able to withstand scrutiny. Especially coal-related enterprises, almost all of them had unspeakable secrets behind them. No one dared to open the lid. Once it was opened, the benefits involved would probably shake the bureaucracy and shake the foundation.
Not to mention the Wang brothers, there were countless people behind Niu Fuyong sucking his blood. The collusion between the government and the businessmen was most obvious in the coal mining industry. In addition, it was a false proposition to say that the collusion between the government and the businessmen had been eliminated. Since ancient times, the government and the businessmen had never been separated. When Zuo Zongtang died, Hu Xueyan's business empire collapsed, Li Hongzhang died, and Sheng Xuanhuai could not escape. Who dared to say that there was no one behind the company? Almost all of them had their own financial backers.
Even for the Wang brothers, there were also people waving flags and cheering behind them. As for who it was, it was as if they had become lice on a bald man's head.
Lu Yiwei changed the way he asked, "When the Wang brothers started their business, which department did Mr. Liu work in?"
When it came to sensitive topics, Wang Wenchao was much more cautious. He was also afraid of Liu Zhankui's revenge, so he said carefully, "I think he was in Yongsheng Town."
"What position?"
"Agriculture or statistician. I don't remember clearly."
"After that?"
"After that, he was elected deputy mayor, deputy secretary of the party committee, mayor, and secretary of the party committee. He worked in Yongsheng Town for nearly ten years. Then he entered the county government as deputy county magistrate in charge of industry, then executive deputy county magistrate, and went straight to the county magistrate. "
After listening to his resume, it was impossible to believe that the Wang brothers had nothing to do with Liu Zhankui. If he guessed correctly, the Wang brothers helped him up step by step, and he created unlimited business opportunities for them. Such an alliance was not uncommon in the officialdom. It was also because of Liu Zhankui's support that the Wang brothers dared to be so bold in Long 'an.
Lu Yiwei asked again, "In addition to coal mining and real estate, what other industries do they run?"
Wang Wenchao thought for a moment and said, "I think they are still in steel, building materials, commerce, catering, entertainment, and so on. It is said that they have opened three hotels and four entertainment venues in Nanzhou City. In addition, there is a high-end club in Fushan, which is usually closed to the public. I have never been there. "
"Oh, so their business is quite big."
"Yes, it is considered a famous enterprise in Nanzhou City."
"What other enterprises are there in Long 'an?"
Wang Wenchao thought for a long time and said, "It seems that other than coal mining, there are no other enterprises. By the way, the most famous local product in Long 'an is wild jujube. They established a wild jujube company, but it later closed down due to poor management. The director, Lin Xiwen, is a very capable person, but unfortunately … "
"Unfortunately what?"
"It seems that they have offended the Wang brothers."
"Oh."
Lu Yiwei saw that he had more or less understood and got up. "I understand. You should go back and rest early."
"Okay, then you should rest early too."
After sending Wang Wenchao away, Lu Yiwei could not fall asleep even more. A company controlling the economic lifeline of a county was more or less terrifying. Also, when he went out this afternoon, he found that the street in the city was full of shampoo shops, and the number was outrageous. For a county to be run like this, the person in charge had an unshirkable responsibility.
He did not know the results of the investigation by the chairman of the Xijiang Coal and Coke Group this afternoon. Liu Zhankui did not report to him. Secretary Shao of the Municipal Party Committee had given him three days to solve the problem. How could it be possible? But he still had to report to him, and how to report to him required skill.
It was late at night, and it was unusually quiet. At this moment, the phone on the table vibrated. He bent down to take a look. It was actually Niu Fuyong.
"Brother Lu, are you asleep?"
"No. Why did you call me at this time?"
Niu Fuyong laughed. "I just returned to the hotel after drinking and suddenly remembered that you are the secretary of the County party committee. So, I called you to see if you have forgotten about me. Haha."
Niu Fuyong had always been impolite, and Lu Yiwei was used to it. He laughed. "You are the big boss now. I should be asking you this question."
"Haha, why would I? We will always be brothers. Do you have time tomorrow? I will go over to see you. "
Lu Yiwei did not want him to come, but he could not reject him. "I have just arrived, and I have a lot of work to do. If you want to come over, just come over."
