After Li Jiansheng left, Song Yong cleaned up the glass shards on the floor. "Yiwei, do you think they are targeting me?"
Lu Yiwei's mind was in a mess. He shook his head. "Why are they targeting you? It's not a big deal. Don't worry. Oh, where did you get the money from? "
Song Yong did not give any details. "I gathered some money. It should be fine, right?"
"Just make up for it. It's fine." Lu Yiwei did not ask further.
At this time, Gao Dakuan came in in a panic. He said, "Yiwei, I have to take two days off from you."
"Take days off? Why do you need to take days off? If they want to audit, don't you need to accompany them? What if there is a problem with any of the data? You have to explain it to them. "Lu Yiwei was surprised by Gao Dakuan's action.
Gao Dakuan was still sweating. "You know I have high blood pressure. I can't take any surprises. I am still in shock from last night's incident. Now, there is this. My blood pressure is rising, and I can't even stand properly. I need to go and have a look. As for the audit, I have arranged for Xiao Zhou to handle it. He knows all the accounts. "
"No!" Lu Yiwei rejected. "High blood pressure is not a big problem. Just take some medicine. If not, go home and get some fluids. You can't leave now. If you want to take days off, I will allow you to go out and relax after the audit. "
"This …" Gao Dakuan tried to explain but was interrupted by Song Yong. "Old Gao, you can't leave now. Only you can explain the 300,000 last night. Does Xiao Zhou know?"
"This …"
"Fine. I can't allow this leave."
Two days later, the audit results were out. What surprised Lu Yiwei was that apart from the 300,000 yuan in the account, there was still 180,000 yuan that couldn't be matched. This was really a joke for others to laugh at.
Lu Yiwei rarely asked about the financial affairs and trusted Gao Dakuan. But what about the 180,000 RMB deficit?
When Gao Bowen received the audit results, he was overjoyed. He took the results and went to see Yang Derong.
Ever since Xiao Zhiliang came to Nanyang County, Yang Derong had been much more low-key than before. It wasn't that he was afraid of Xiao Zhiliang, but he had received a warning from Qin Xiuwen, the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee.
Mayor Lin Haifeng valued Yang Derong, but Qin Xiuwen did not. Before Xiao Zhiliang took office, he called Yang Derong to his office and severely criticized him. He also warned him that if he did anything that was not conducive to unity, such as forming cliques for personal gain or forming cliques, he would have to vacate his seat as soon as possible. It was obvious that Qin Xiuwen knew Yang Derong's every move.
Yang Derong flipped through the audit results and said, "Didn't you say that the Municipal Bureau will do a spot check? Then quickly inform Yiwei to make up for the deficit in order to deal with the inspection."
Yang Derong's attitude shocked Gao Bowen. He said, "Boss, this is a great opportunity to take down Lu Yiwei. We can't let this kid take advantage of us."
Yang Derong waved his hand and said, "Forget it. Zhang Zhiyuan has already left. What's the point of making a fuss? Besides, Lu Yiwei is not a threat to us. Why do you always make things difficult for him? "
"Boss, why are you …" Gao Bowen could not believe his ears. He said, "Did you forget that if it wasn't for this kid, we would have been in big trouble. Xu Wannian was beaten up. Wei Guoqiang still hasn't come to work. Just two days ago, he even encouraged He Jian to humiliate us. How can I swallow this disgust? "
Yang Derong was unmoved. He said, "It's all in the past. Why do you have to be so serious? Putting aside all kinds of relationships, I think Lu Yiwei is a good person. You too, you're looking for trouble yourself. Why are you eating? Do you really think that driver is your life-saving straw? You don't have to suck up to him, do you? "Yang Derong looked down on people like Gao Bowen who were easily swayed by the wind. It had only been a few days and he was already trying to suck up to him.
Gao Bowen did not have the strength to defend himself. He said, "Boss, are you really going to let Lu Yiwei go?"
"What else do you want?" Yang Derong said impatiently, "This matter ends here. If you have the time, go and check the safety of the coal mine. If there's a problem, the first one to be held accountable will be you!"
Gao Bowen did not give up and took out his trump card. He said, "Boss, there's something I have to remind you. Although the casualties in the Shuangmiao Town fire have been settled, you can't just sit back and do nothing. You know, Lu Yiwei was also at the scene that day. As for what he heard and what he saw, you and I don't know. If he finds something that can be used against us, you and I can't get away with it. "
Yang Derong hesitated at the mention of this matter. After the incident, Yang Derong regretted it for a long time. He regretted that he should not have listened to Gao Bowen's bad idea. If he had reported it in detail at that time, he would not have been on tenterhooks all day long. This was a sore point in his heart that he could not breathe. Although he did not see the seven people who died, he shuddered at the thought of the scene at that time.
Gao Bowen saw that Yang Derong was shaken and continued, "There's also the matter of the Donghua Coal Mine a few days ago. If he finds out and reveals it, then …"
"Alright, stop talking!" Yang Derong said irritably, "Tell me, what do you want to do?"
"First, get rid of Gao Dakuan, and directly transfer the case to the Procuratorate for investigation."
Yang Derong's eyes widened. He never thought that Gao Bowen would be so ruthless. This person was too scary. If he dared to do this to others today, he would dare to do the same to himself tomorrow. He thought for a while and said, "How about this, I'll discuss with Secretary Xiao. I'll let you know how to deal with it when the time comes."
"No, you can't!" Gao Bowen stopped him. "Boss, Lu Yiwei has been very close with He Jian recently. If this matter goes to Xiao Zhiliang, it will be like a stone in the sea. We can act first and report later. "
"No!" Yang Derong immediately said, "Do you still respect Secretary Xiao by doing this? Alright, that's settled. We'll talk about it later. "
Seeing that Yang Derong was determined, Gao Bowen could not do anything. However, he had guessed Xiao Zhiliang's thoughts. This person was eager to make contributions and was eager to succeed. No matter what, he wanted to gain a foothold. After this matter was exposed, Gao Bowen would definitely pursue it seriously.
As expected, Xiao Zhiliang was furious and requested for the Commission for Discipline Inspection to intervene and conduct a thorough investigation. If the situation was true, he would be severely punished.
Lu Yiwei met Gao Dakuan at his house.
Gao Dakuan was lying on the bed sickly. Gao Dakuan did not know if he was really sick or frightened by this matter. When he saw Lu Yiwei, he forced himself to sit up and said, "Yiwei, you're here."
Lu Yiwei sat opposite Gao Dakuan with a heavy heart. He threw the audit report in his hand to him and said, "Old Gao, explain it to me."
Gao Dakuan knew what was going on and did not take the report. He half-sat and bowed to Lu Yiwei. "Mr. Lu, I'm sorry."
Lu Yiwei was shocked. He thought that this matter was targeted at Song Yong. He did not expect Gao Dakuan to put on such a good show. No wonder he behaved strangely that day and even asked for leave. It turned out that he had done something wrong.
Lu Yiwei said coldly, "Old Gao, we've known each other for more than a year or two. I have nothing to say about your character. Otherwise, I would not have pulled you from the government office to Shiwan Village. But you … But what have you done? Tell me, every time you ask me to sign, I sign it without hesitation. It's completely out of trust in you, but you … Sigh! You've really disappointed me. "
Gao Dakuan seemed to have let go of the burden in his heart and said, "Mr. Lu, I know I've let you down. I shouldn't have done these things behind your back. This is for you." After that, he took out a resignation letter and a stack of money from under his pillow.
Gao Dakuan continued, "Mr. Lu, maybe you can't understand how I feel. I've been in the village all my life, and now that I've returned to the government office, I want to get a position. But in the end, I'm still a small employee with nothing to look forward to. If it wasn't for you, I'd probably be stuck at the sub-section level for the rest of my life. Also, I'm really scared of being poor. My wife scolds me for being useless and always compares me with others. In the blink of an eye, my son is getting married, but I don't even have enough savings to buy a house. So, I wavered. In total, I took more than 300,000 RMB. Of which, I took 150,000 RMB to cover the accounts. I didn't even have time to settle the rest before I stumbled. I've already written my resignation letter. This is the remaining 70,000 RMB. I'll return the rest in the future. "
After hearing that, Lu Yiwei had mixed feelings. He couldn't bear to blame him. One must know that Gao Dakuan's actions had violated the laws and regulations. Moreover, he resigned and walked away. As the Party Secretary, he was also responsible for this matter. He was not strict, did not audit carefully, did not supervise properly, and was ineffective in leading. Each of these could be blamed.
Gao Dakuan seemed to have seen through Lu Yiwei's thoughts and said, "Mr. Lu, don't worry. I will not implicate you in this matter. I did this, and I will bear the consequences. "
"This isn't a matter of who bears the consequences, but …" Lu Yiwei didn't know what to say. Actually, he should have noticed Gao Dakuan's abnormal actions. The gold chain and branded clothes were bought with public funds. If that's the case, he didn't deserve any sympathy. But after all, they had known each other for a while. It would be inexcusable if he didn't help at a critical moment.
Even though Xiao Zhiliang had ordered for a thorough investigation, he still wanted to try. And the only way to break through was He Jian.
He Jian knew about this a long time ago. But when Xiao Zhiliang was furious, he didn't dare to interfere.
When Lu Yiwei found him, He Jian said straightforwardly, "It's best if you don't say anything about this. I'm really powerless. Secretary Xiao wants to establish his authority. If he doesn't handle this matter decisively, it will be hard to convince the public. "
Lu Yiwei didn't let it go and begged He Jian to help him. Even if Gao Dakuan was removed from his position, he must retain his benefits. He couldn't let him live a miserable life in his later years.
