There was still no news! This was the result that Lu Yiwei had been waiting for. However, to his relief, the special task force investigating Zhang Zhiyuan had stopped the investigation and personally delivered the seized mobile phone to his door.
In the past, Lu Yiwei couldn't live without his mobile phone. During this time, he had gotten used to it. He felt free and relaxed! The person who delivered the mobile phone was Xiaowang, who was almost cheated by Lu Yiwei. He also returned the 900 yuan that Lu Yiwei had given him.
The mobile phone was out of battery. Lu Yiwei charged it. As soon as he turned it on, he heard text messages coming one after another. He took a closer look. Good lord! There were more than a hundred text messages. When he opened it, all of them were from Xia Jinhe. He froze there for a moment.
It didn't matter to him whether he read the text messages or not. Although he didn't do half as much as Su Meng on Xia Jinhe, he was far more attentive than Su Meng. After all, he was old and wanted a stable family. However, after this incident, he didn't have the desire to get married. He felt that his current state was good. He didn't read the text messages. Instead, he threw the mobile phone on the sofa and went upstairs to sleep.
At the same time, after receiving a call from Huang Jiyang, the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Tian Chunqiu had to re-examine the problem of Zhang Zhiyuan. Since Secretary Huang said that he was a talent, he should find a suitable position for him. However, Tian Chunqiu couldn't figure out where he should go.
At first, he wanted to let Zhang Zhiyuan go to the Municipal Bureau of Industry as the secretary of the Party group and then become the director in a year or two. This was a good path. However, the current secretary of the Party group in the Bureau of Industry was a direct descendant of the deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. Why not let him go to the largest pharmaceutical factory in Xijiang Province to be the director? This was also a good choice. It just so happened that the current director was about to be transferred. Yes, let him go to the pharmaceutical factory! Anyway, he couldn't go back to Nanyang County.
Just as Tian Chunqiu was about to convene the Standing Committee for a meeting, another earth-shattering event happened in Nanyang County, which directly affected the direction of the entire event.
In Nanyang County, Su Qiming was reprimanding Wei Guoqiang, the Party Secretary of Shiwan Village.
"What should we do now, huh?" Su Qiming anxiously paced back and forth on the floor, while Wei Guoqiang's hands hung by his shoulders, his head lowered, and he did not utter a single word.
Su Qiming's blood pressure rose, and he almost fell to the ground. Raising a trembling finger, he pointed at Wei Guoqiang and said, "Wei Guoqiang, I'm giving you two days to find him. If you can't find him, you don't have to come back."
Wei Guoqiang said timidly, "Mayor Su, I've already looked for him, but his phone was switched off and he disappeared without a trace. I really can't do anything about it."
"Pa!" Su Qiming slammed the table and stood up. He glared angrily and said, "So you're saying that I should bear this responsibility?"
"No, that's not what I meant." Wei Guoqiang still lowered his head and said, "I think it's better to report it. If we don't report it now, that bastard will really run away. If he runs overseas, we really can't do anything about it. "
"No!" Su Qiming said decisively, "We can't report it for the time being. If this matter gets out, where do you want me to put my face? I'm f * cking in your hands! Sigh! "
Dong Guoping, the Director of the County party committee, pushed the door open and entered. Su Qiming anxiously asked, "How is it? Is there any progress on your side? "
Dong Guoping glared at Wei Guoqiang and said worriedly, "Secretary Su, the situation doesn't look good."
Before Dong Guoping could continue, Su Qiming's vision darkened, and he fell to the ground.
When Su Qiming woke up, he was already lying on the hospital bed. When he opened his eyes and saw Dong Guoping, tears flowed down his cheeks, and he said weakly, "Guoping, what should we do now?"
Dong Guoping was calmer than anyone else. He said, "Mayor Su, we can't delay this matter without reporting it. If it causes more serious consequences, we'll be held responsible. In my opinion, it's better to report this matter to the higher-ups as soon as possible, so that we can study countermeasures and take remedial measures in time. "
Su Qiming shook his head helplessly. He wished he could just kill himself. Dong Guoping was right. It was time to report this matter to the higher-ups. If he didn't report it now, the losses caused by this huge mistake would be irreparable.
"Help me down!" Su Qiming sat up with one arm and pulled out the infusion tube. Dong Guoping quickly went up to support him and advised, "Mayor Su, you can't go now. You need to rest. The doctor said that your blood pressure is on the high side … "
"Why do you still care about this at a time like this?" Su Qiming moved his numb wrist and said, "Quick, prepare the car for me. I'm going to the city to see Secretary Tian now!"
When he arrived at the Northern Province Municipal Party Committee's courtyard, Su Qiming felt numb all over when he recalled Tian Chunqiu's cold gaze. But what could he do? Making up his mind, Su Qiming got out of the car and walked straight to the building.
Coincidentally, Tian Chunqiu had just returned from a meeting. After seeing Su Qiming in the corridor, he seemed to be in a good mood. He smiled and said, "Qiming, you came at the right time. I happen to have something to talk to you about. Come in with me."
Su Qiming followed him in anxiously. Tian Chunqiu asked him to take a seat. Su Qiming smiled bitterly and stood there bashfully. He gave him a cigarette and then pushed and shoved him to take it. His behavior was very strange. Tian Chunqiu's face suddenly darkened. He asked, "What happened again?"
The word 'again' made Su Qiming lose face. Since he took charge of Nanyang County, he had not achieved much. Instead, he had caused a lot of trouble. Tian Chunqiu was a little scared. Judging from Su Qiming's expression and behavior, something must have happened.
Su Qiming gritted his teeth and said, "Secretary Tian, I'm sorry. I've let you down. It's all my fault. If you want to punish me, punish me. I …"
"Wait!" Tian Chunqiu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this out of the blue. He said anxiously, "Don't be in a hurry to admit your mistake. Tell me what happened first."
Su Qiming sighed and said, "Secretary Tian, do you know about the cement factory project that I brought back with the investment?"
"I know. Isn't that your plan? What's wrong? "Tian Chunqiu asked in puzzlement.
"I've been deceived. I've been deceived!" Su Qiming's legs went soft. He sat down on the sofa. His eyes were dull and his pupils were dilated. They were filled with despair.
Tian Chunqiu's heart tightened. He got up and asked with his eyes wide open, "What happened?"
Su Qiming was like a frosted eggplant. He said, "Secretary Tian, some time ago, I used the county government's name to guarantee a 230 million yuan loan for Tong Ya Group. Yesterday, the Agricultural Bank of China released 80 million yuan in advance. But in the blink of an eye, the other party disappeared without a trace."
Tian Chunqiu's blood pressure rose. His hands on the table kept shaking. His facial muscles twitched a few times. He sat down on the sofa. After a long time, he said, "Tong Ya Group is such a big company. How can it be a scam? Are you mistaken?"
Su Qiming shook his head and said, "I've checked. We're not working with Tong Ya Group at all. It's a complete shell company."
"What?" Tian Chunqiu stood up as if he had been electrocuted. He suppressed his anger and said, "Not Tong Ya Group? What do you mean? Are you joking with me? "
Su Qiming smiled bitterly and said, "Secretary Tian, I don't have time to joke at this time. It's all my fault. I was arrogant and conceited. I was anxious for results and made a mistake in my decision. I'm willing to bear all the consequences."
"Didn't you visit Tong Ya Group earlier? How could something like this happen? "Tian Chunqiu was still in disbelief and asked again.
Su Qiming said, "It's true that we went to Tong Ya Group's headquarters, but we didn't see the group's boss. It was always a vice president called Zhou Yaru who received us. He took us to visit the company's headquarters, held a related discussion, and held a signing ceremony to let us relax for a while. We didn't expect it to be a scam. "
"Then why didn't you verify the other party's real situation at that time?" Tian Chunqiu asked blankly.
"We did. Zhou Yaru took out all kinds of Tong Ya Group's certificates, including relevant documents, for us to check. The relevant information is still preserved to this day. Yesterday, after the bank released the money, I immediately informed him and set a time to discuss the next step of the cooperation. The other party promised and repeatedly reassured me. But yesterday afternoon, when I contacted him again, his phone was turned off. I thought his phone was out of battery. When I called again later, it was a blank number. I was stunned. To be safe, I sent someone to look for him. But when I arrived at his residence, it was empty. He had vanished from the face of the earth. "
The more Tian Chunqiu listened, the more confused he became. He asked, "You've explained for a long time, but I still don't understand. What Zhou Yaru? What blank number? What empty number? Aren't you working with Tong Ya Group? Why is it empty? "
There were some things that Su Qiming couldn't say before the cooperation. He tried his best to objectively tell the truth. "Ah! Secretary Tian, it's all my fault! I was too eager for success. When Zhou Yaru used the Tong Ya Group's name to swindle people in Nanyang, I didn't seriously investigate the situation. I couldn't wait to get involved in the project and even guaranteed the loan. But now I can't find him. I feel like I've been tricked. "
Tian Chunqiu finally understood. His face suddenly turned pale and his lips turned purple. He suppressed his anger and said, "So, this is a complete scam, right?"
Su Qiming lowered his head in shame.
"You …" Tian Chunqiu stretched out a hand and pointed his index finger at Su Qiming. He bit his lips and growled in a low voice. Just as the volcano was about to erupt, Tian Chunqiu retracted his trembling finger and slowly sat on the chair. He lit a cigarette and silently smoked.
