Early the next morning, Old Han brought his son over. Lu Yiwei asked Fu Jiangsheng, the deputy village head in charge of logistics, to arrange a dormitory. He threw the car key to Li Ermao and said, "Catch! Go out and familiarize yourself with the car. "
Li Ermao took the car key and immediately became a different person. He ran out energetically. It was obvious that he was a car lover.
In fact, Lu Yiwei had wanted to find a driver for a long time. He had a lot of things to do and was often distracted when driving. There were a few times when he almost got into an accident. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and avoided a tragedy. But choosing a driver was easier said than done!
A driver could be said to be the closest person to a leader other than his family. His status and role were far more important than a secretary. Generally speaking, a secretary would deal with official affairs, give advice, and deal with various social engagements. On the other hand, a driver would deal with internal affairs and even housework. Most of the time, he would deal with personal matters. For example, a driver would take care of children to school, a family member going out to use the car, the leader's clothes, and so on. To put it more accurately, a secretary would be a relative, and a driver would be a relative.
Because of the importance of a driver, the leader would be very careful when choosing a driver. The criteria for choosing a driver were very different, but generally the same. Skilled driving skills, a strong sense of direction, able to deal with all kinds of urgent problems, and able to endure all kinds of overtime were the minimum criteria. After all, the leader's life was in his hands. If his driving skills were not good, it was very likely that it would lead to a disaster. A person should be virtuous, honest, and of few words. Don't listen to what you shouldn't listen to, don't look at what you shouldn't look at, and don't think about what you shouldn't think about. These were also very important qualities.
Based on this, when choosing a driver, the leader would first look for someone in the circle he was familiar with. Distant relatives were the best. It was easier to control someone who knew their background. Furthermore, the driver had to be young. Young people had quick reactions and active thinking. They could criticize if they did something wrong. If it was an older driver, after a long time, they would be too embarrassed to criticize if they did something wrong. Therefore, most of the leaders' drivers were changed from traffic officers to chauffeurs. Under normal circumstances, traffic officers were brought over from their hometown. They would work for seven or eight years at the age of seventeen or eighteen. They would have a clear understanding of the leader's character. They would rarely use the previous leader's driver.
The relationship between the two was trust, and tacit understanding. If he wanted to achieve these two points, he wouldn't be able to achieve results without a long period of practice.
The reason why Lu Yiwei chose Li Ermao was that he was old friends with Li Ermao's father, Lao Han, and knew his family's situation very well. Secondly, he found that Li Ermao was steady and had a military background. He did not smoke or drink, and he was a man of few words. He stood in front of the window and watched Li Ermao skillfully reverse the car and enter the gate. He felt a lot more at ease.
The first thing Lu Yiwei did when he returned to his desk was to read the newspaper and letters that were delivered today. He had to read the newspaper every day in order to keep abreast of the latest movements of the upper echelons, and he had to check the letters because he was always worried about whether there was any news on the other side of the ocean. But after so long, there was still no news. In today's mail, there was nothing except some letters from magazines or academic societies, which made him feel very disappointed.
He thought of Xia Jinpeng, so he called his sister, Lu Ling. On the other end of the phone, Lu Ling told him that Xia Jinpeng was recovering well and would probably be discharged in another half a month. Then, she grumbled and hung up.
Lu Yiwei sympathized with the Xia family's experience. Why was God so unfair? He had no choice but to believe in fate. Xia Jinhe left without saying goodbye, leaving a letter and entrusting him to take care of Xia Jinpeng. If it were someone else, they would definitely not be treated coldly. Why? However, Lu Yiwei could not do it. No matter what, it was a kind of fate to get to know Xia Jinhe. Although the ending was unexpected, he had to take the initiative to bear the responsibility.
At this moment, Song Yong suddenly pushed the door open and barged in. He panted and said, "Yiwei, Guoguogou Coal Mine has been sealed!"
"Huh?" Lu Yiwei was shocked and asked, "Who sealed it?"
"I just got the news, so I'm not sure yet," Song Yong said, "Qiao Jianjun called and asked us to go and take a look. Should we go?"
Lu Yiwei leaned on the chair and pondered. Guoguogou Coal Mine was suddenly sealed, but the township government had no news at all. This was not a simple matter. Thinking of the Donghua Coal Mine's plan to purchase it a few days ago, he seemed to have some clues. If he was not mistaken, it was that Young Master who was behind this.
"Let's go! Let's go and take a look. " Lu Yiwei got up and went downstairs. Li Ermao happened to drive into the courtyard. The two quickly jumped into the car and said directly, "To Guoguogou Coal Mine."
Li Ermao was at a loss. Lu Yiwei then realized that he was new. He directed the car to make a few turns and arrived at Guoguogou Coal Mine in ten minutes.
As expected, there was a group of people standing in the courtyard. Some were arguing with Qiao Jianjun, while others were pasting seals everywhere. Seeing that Lu Yiwei and the others had arrived, Qiao Jianjun hurriedly ran over and said, "Standing Committee Lu, Township Chief Song, you have to uphold justice for me. It's not easy for me as a businessman. A group of people came and wanted to seal the coal mine indiscriminately. Who did I offend? I'm doing proper business. "
Lu Yiwei ignored Qiao Jianjun and carefully identified each of the enforcers. A man who looked like a leader walked over and said with a smile, "Standing Committee Lu, you're here."
"You are?" Lu Yiwei recognized him. He was the Deputy Chief of the Safety Supervision Bureau.
The Deputy Chief said, "We're just doing our job. We'll investigate whoever the higher-ups want us to investigate. Someone reported that Guoguogou Coal Mine was mining across the border. We came to verify that there was indeed such a situation. After asking for instructions from the higher-ups, we requested for it to be sealed immediately. We had no choice. If we've offended you in any way, I hope you can forgive us. "
Lu Yiwei could basically confirm that this matter was definitely related to Dong Hua Coal Mine, but he could not simply say such baseless things. After thinking for a long time, he said, "I have a basic grasp of the situation. During this period of time, I've asked Qiao Jianjun to stop production and reorganize. He's also actively handling the relevant procedures. He'll probably be here in a few days. Aren't you a little impatient to seal the coal mine now? "
When the Deputy Chief heard this, he knew that Lu Yiwei was siding with Qiao Jianjun. He said, "Standing Committee Lu, I'm just a nobody. I'll listen to the higher-ups. If Qiao Jianjun has any objections, he can directly report it to our higher-ups. As long as the higher-ups give the word, we'll immediately tear up the seal! "
Lu Yiwei took out his cell phone and found the number of the Safety Supervision Bureau's Zhang Zhisong. He called him right in front of them.
On the other end of the line, when Zhang Zhisong saw that it was Lu Yiwei, he threw it aside and did not even pick up. Zhang Zhisong's action made Lu Yiwei even more determined. He gave Qiao Jianjun a look, then turned to the Deputy Chief and said, "Do what you need to do." After that, he turned and went upstairs. Qiao Jianjun followed closely behind him.
"Liu Qiang talked to you again?" Lu Yiwei asked straightforwardly.
"Sigh!" Qiao Jianjun sighed and said, "He sends people over every other day. I agree to let him buy the coal mine, but the price is too low. I really can't accept it. To put it nicely, it's a big enterprise. What's the difference between this and Qin Erbao from back then! "
Lu Yiwei did not want to get involved in Ding Changhua's matter. After all, there were too many relationships involved. How could he go against it? As for what happened to Qiao Jianjun, he could only sympathize. He said, "Old Qiao, I've already told you about this. Since you can't change the truth, you should fight for more benefits. I can't get involved in this matter for official or personal reasons. So, I'll find a suitable middleman to talk to, and both sides will take a step back. It's not beneficial for you to continue this stalemate. If the other party really falls out, I'm afraid you won't get a single cent. "
Song Yong added, "Mr. Lu is right. Today, the Bureau of Safety can seal your coal mine. Tomorrow, they can revoke your relevant documents. They can look for you anywhere. Like I said before, the sooner you solve it, the sooner you can be free. You can take the money and go somewhere else. "
Qiao Jianjun was so anxious that he was about to cry. He said repeatedly, "Am I going to end up like this after working hard all my life? I really can't accept this. "
Lu Yiwei stood up and said, "Old Qiao, you're considered a veteran. I'm sure you know the situation between the government and the business world. Although money is omnipotent, sometimes it must give way to power. You have to think about this carefully. I'll stop here. As for what to do, you should have an idea. "
On the way back, Song Yong said, "Yiwei, this Dong Hua Coal Mine is really rich. They directly ordered the county to put pressure on Qiao Jianjun. I guess he won't be able to escape this time."
Lu Yiwei turned around and said, "What do you think Old Qiao will do?"
Song Yong said, "With his temper, I think he'll fight to the death."
Lu Yiwei did not say anything.
After a while, Lu Yiwei asked, "How's Director Peng from the Municipal Education Bureau?"
"We agreed to have dinner tonight."
"Okay, then I won't show up. When will you be there? "
"In the afternoon."
Back at the township government, Lu Yiwei called Bai Yuxin. He wanted to ask Director Guo of the Municipal Development Bank out for dinner. Bai Yuxin didn't even think about it and readily agreed. After hanging up, he called Pan Chengjun and asked him to go to Bei Zhou City that night.
In the afternoon, Lu Yiwei took a detour to Guchuan County to pick up Bai Yuxin. On the way, Bai Yuxin asked, "Why? You want a loan again? "
Lu Yiwei chuckled and said, "I have a friend who opened a coal mine. There are some capital problems, so I want to get a loan."
Bai Yuxin was smart. She immediately asked, "You opened it?"
"No, no, I'm a businessman." Lu Yiwei explained, "Oh, you know him. Pan Chengjun, the one who robbed Qin Erbao of his coal mine."
"Oh." Bai Yuxin remembered and said, "How much do you want to borrow?"
"It might be a lot this time, at least a finger."
"Ten million?"
"Yes."
"Oh." Bai Yuxin said, "Old Guo shouldn't have a problem. He's a little weak anyway. I'm just worried that this kid won't run away. If that's the case, we'll both be in trouble. "
"That won't happen." Lu Yiwei said, "Old Pan is a good person. Besides, you don't have to do this. I'll vouch for him."
