"If you don't say it, I will." Zhang Zhiyuan suppressed his anger and said, "Xinyuan Coal Mine Equipment Company was established in 1996. In the past five years, you have been in close contact with the company. You have bought various kinds of equipment for more than 50 million yuan. If you add the coal mining equipment last time, it will reach 100 million yuan. Shuyang Coal Mine's net profit for five years is only 200 million yuan. You used half of the money to buy the company's products. Let me ask you, are the things you bought still there? "
Tao Anguo panicked. He pressed his trembling legs with his hands and said, "All … are there."
"Really?" Zhang Zhiyuan asked again. He ignored Tao Anguo and shouted at the door, "Yiwei, come in!"
After Lu Yiwei came in, Zhang Zhiyuan pointed to the account book and said, "You say it."
Lu Yiwei wanted to save some face for Tao Anguo, but Zhang Zhiyuan was determined to show his cards, so he took out a small book and said, "On December 21, 1996, you bought three sets of hydraulic self-moving trackless equipment for 12 million yuan. On May 2, 1997, you bought a support transport flatbed truck for 8 million yuan. On September 6, 1998, you bought ventilation equipment for a total of 9 million yuan …"
"Stop!" Tao Anguo suddenly interrupted and closed his eyes, "Tell me, County Zhang, what are you going to do?"
It seemed that Tao Anguo was calm. Zhang Zhiyuan sneered, "As far as I know, these equipment are necessary. After you took over Shuyang Coal Mine, the equipment was replaced in 1996. Other than that, there was no replacement. The equipment you replaced was purchased from another company. That is to say, your transactions with Xinyuan Coal Mine Equipment Company are money laundering. Am I right? "
Tao Anguo still closed his eyes. His lips trembled violently, and he squeezed out a few words with great effort, "Not all of them."
"Okay, then I will listen to your explanation." Zhang Zhiyuan sat down.
Tao Anguo refused to say anything and refused to say anything.
Zhang Zhiyuan continued, "Last time, there was a problem in your procurement department, so I wanted to take you down. You're quite smart to contact Secretary Guo directly. Out of consideration for his feelings, I'll let you off. During this period, I have been waiting for you to explain to me, but you didn't. On the contrary, you are very close to Secretary Kang Dong. I don't know what you are thinking, but I can tell you clearly today that your crime is no worse than that of Ma Linhu and Xiao Liuzi of the Procurement Department. You are even more heinous. You can be directly investigated by the judicial process … "
"I was wrong!" Tao Anguo's psychological defense completely collapsed. He knelt down in front of Zhang Zhiyuan and said repeatedly, "County Zhang, please stop. I'll explain."
Zhang Zhiyuan was so angry that his body was trembling. Looking at the big maggot in front of him, he wanted to slap him. He patiently said, "Then tell me."
Tao Anguo said, "County Magistrate Zhang, if I tell you everything, can you let me go?"
Zhang Zhiyuan looked at Lu Yiwei and lit a cigarette, "If what you said is not much different from what I know, I can consider it."
Lu Yiwei quickly pressed the recording device in his pocket, waiting for Tao Anguo to confess.
Tao Anguo opened his mouth and said, "Mayor Zhang, I also have my difficulties that I can't speak of. What you said just now was not wrong, but the situation here is not what you think it is. But I really can't do anything about it. Do you know who owns the Xinyuan Coal Mine Equipment Company? "
"Ma Linhui, right?" Lu Yiwei said.
"You can understand it that way, but not completely." Tao Anguo said, "This company is managed by Ma Linhui on the surface, but in fact, it is controlled by Zhang Xiaoe, the wife of Li Hugang, the director of the Municipal People's Congress. That year, Ma Linhui came to me and said that he wanted to cooperate with me. How can I look up to someone like him who eats bones without spitting out the skin? So, I immediately refused. But he was not discouraged and used Zhang Xiaoe as an excuse. I have never had any dealings with Director Li before. Even though he is the director of the Municipal People's Congress, I am not afraid of him, but I still used all kinds of excuses to refuse him. What I did not expect was that my bad luck had just begun. "
"First, the Municipal Bureau of Work Safety went to investigate the Shuyang Coal Mine. After they came down, they stopped production and issued a one million yuan fine. I could not stop production, so I could only swallow my anger and pay the fine. Then, a person was killed in the coal mine. I did not dare to make it public, so I quietly discussed it with the deceased's family. I did not expect this matter to alarm the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and they directly skipped the county Public Security Bureau to take me away. In the end, it took a lot of effort to get out. Then, the land department used the annual inspection as an excuse to deduct my mining permit. The county also came forward to mediate, but the reply was that it was the request of the municipal leaders. Then, it involved my family. My son was studying in Bei Zhou Second High School. One day, he was beaten up by a group of hooligans. After that, he was beaten up several times. I had no choice but to transfer my son to a high school in the provincial capital. But that was not all. One time, my son went out and got into a car accident. He almost lost his life, and one of his legs is still limping. "
"After so many strange things happened, I had my suspicions, but I did not dare to easily determine who did it. It was not until Ma Linhui came to find me that I understood. It turned out that he was the one who planned everything. Ma Linhui told me that he had no choice but to cooperate with me. If he had a choice, it would be your son's life. How could I stand it? In a fit of anger, I used my connections to arrest Ma Linhui. But a few days later, Ma Linhui walked out unscathed. This time, after he was released, he crazily took revenge. He ordered his follower, San Pao, to dig up my ancestral grave and burn down my house. He even tampered with my car. If I was not lucky, I would have died. "
"I was really scared. I was out in the open, and he was in the dark. How could I win against him? I had no choice but to cooperate with Xinyuan Coal Mine Equipment Company. "
Hearing this, Zhang Zhiyuan could not sit still. He pointed at Tao Anguo. "You mean that Director Li of the Municipal People's Congress was involved? Can you guarantee that? "
"I can guarantee that. I mainly interact with Ma Linhui, Director Li, and his wife, Zhang Xiaoe, a few times. Xinyuan Company is actually Director Li's money-making tool. He not only does business with Shuyang Coal Mine, but he also does business with other coal mines. "
Zhang Zhiyuan was shocked. He didn't expect that there was such an unspeakable shady business hidden within. It was simply audacious and deranged. He maintained a calm state of mind and said, "Continue speaking."
Tao Anguo continued, "You just said that the coal mine equipment was necessary. That is not entirely true, but Xinyuan Company used another method to deceive people. For example, you mentioned the hydraulic self-moving trackless equipment in 1996. I did purchase it and install it. But according to the original design of the coal mine, this set of equipment could not be used at all. If I wanted to use it, I would have to change the design, but the cost would double or even more. Of course, Xinyuan Company did not want me to change it. They said that they would take back the equipment and compensate me for the loss. They had spent 12 million yuan to buy it, and they had already made a lot of money. But they actually wanted me to compensate him 5 million yuan. I had no choice but to accept my fate. In this way, I did not see anything, and I lost five or six million yuan for nothing. Tell me, how can there be such a good thing in the world? "
"In the subsequent purchases of equipment, Ma Linhui used the same method, including the imported coal mining equipment that you discovered last time. In total, he took more than 20 million yuan from Shuyang Coal Mine. After that, he also gave me some money, and I accepted it. But I saved the money in an account and never touched it. I was waiting for the day when I was found, so I could clear my name. If you don't believe me, you can check it now. I clearly remember every sum of money. "
"So, County Zhang, you said that I was laundering money. I can't deny it, and I won't defend myself. I know that I am committing a crime, and I am their accomplice. But I am not only the mine manager, but also the father of my child. I can't just watch my son die. So, I slipped further and further down this road. " Tao Anguo suddenly turned to Lu Yiwei and said, "Director Lu, do you remember the cigarette box in your dormitory when you investigated the purchasing department last time?"
Lu Yiwei nodded and said, "I remember. Is it …"
"Yes, I secretly stuffed it in. In order to cover up, I deliberately used a cheap cigarette box and used my left hand to expose Ma Linhu's situation. "Tao Anguo said.
"Ah?" Lu Yiwei was even more surprised.
Tao Anguo continued, "County Zhang, since the matter has been exposed, I will tell you everything. Ma Linhui has been making money through Xinyuan Company, a shell company. As far as I know, most of the money was given to Li Hugang's wife, Zhang Xiaoe. "
"I will tell you another shocking secret. In fact, in Li Hugang's family, except for him who is still a Chinese citizen, his wife and daughter are both Canadian citizens. Li Hugang bought a mansion for his daughter in Canada, and also funded her to open a company. Of course, this company is also a shell company. Most of Li Hugang's money was transferred to his daughter's company through Xinyuan Company's international trade. "
"Ah?" Zhang Zhiyuan couldn't believe it was true. He stood up and said with a black face, "Tao Anguo, is what you said today true?"
Tao Anguo swore and said, "County Zhang, if I am lying, I will be hit by a car when I go out."
