Qin Xiaoyu felt that ever since she met Xia Ruofei, it had been an unlucky year.
Even last time, because of Xia Ruofei, Qin Xiaoyu had accidentally caught an A-level wanted criminal of the Ministry of Public Security, Zhao Zhixi, whose alias was Zhao He, but it didn't bring her much joy. On the contrary, it caused her a lot of anger.
After Zhao He's identity was confirmed, Bureau Chief Chen Bo asked Qin Xiaoyu to contact the "enthusiast" who had helped to catch Zhao He, to honor the reward offered by the Ministry.
At that time, Qin Xiaoyu had contacted Xia Ruofei through Lu You. She really didn't want to have too much contact with Xia Ruofei, and Lu You had also replied to her that day, saying that she had already informed Xia Ruofei.
Qin Xiaoyu thought that this matter was over, and that she wouldn't have any interaction with Xia Ruofei in the future.
She didn't expect that Bureau Chief Chen Bo would call her to his office today and ask directly, "Captain Qin, why haven't you contacted the enthusiast who helped us catch Zhao Zhixi? The Ministry's commendation order is about to come out, and the reward we promised hasn't been honored yet. How can this be? "
Qin Xiaoyu was a little confused at that time and said, "I contacted him a few days ago!"
"But he hasn't come to receive the reward yet! The Publicity Department has even arranged the award venue … "Chen Bo's tone was a little dissatisfied.
Qin Xiaoyu frowned slightly and said, "Bureau Chief, I told him a few days ago to contact the Publicity Department of the Public Security Bureau within two days. Otherwise, I won't wait for him. Since he hasn't come, maybe he doesn't care about the reward money! We don't have to send it to him! "
Chen Bo's face darkened and he said in a deep voice, "Nonsense! Is the reward promised by the Ministry of Public Security a joke? Little Qin, you're also a leading cadre, don't tell me you don't have a little political awareness! How can you ignore such a big matter with just a phone call? Maybe this comrade has noble character and unquestionable integrity, but the Public Security Bureau can't push the boat with the current. Otherwise, won't the courage of those brave people be disappointed? If we encounter similar things in the future, who will come forward bravely? "
Chen Bo's face darkened and he talked a lot to Qin Xiaoyu. Qin Xiaoyu could only swallow her broken teeth and silently nodded.
Chen Bo continued, "For this kind of thing, you should take the initiative to invite him! Also, we have to make it clear to that comrade that this is not only a matter of money, but also involves the credibility of the public security organ. I believe that as long as we are sincere enough and do our job well, that comrade will definitely understand! "
"Invite him?" Qin Xiao Yu couldn't help but widen her eyes.
"Is there a problem?" Chen Bo frowned and said, "To treat a meritorious person, this is a necessary courtesy! Little Qin! I think you still need to change your mindset! We, the public security police, serve the people. Don't always have the thought of being an official! "
Qin Xiao Yu felt as if ten thousand vulgarities were galloping through her heart. Since when did this old lady have any bullsh * t thoughts of being an official? I just don't like him, okay?
"Bureau Chief, this … We've been so busy with the anti-crime task force recently. Can we let our colleagues from the publicity department do this?" Qin Xiao Yu asked weakly.
"No! You were the one who contacted him from the beginning. Don't bother two people for the same thing. You can do it! " Chen Bo said flatly, and then said, "Little Qin, you have to put this work in the first place. Other things can be put aside first. We have so many criminal police and public security officers involved in the special operation to eliminate evil. It won't affect you if you're not there!"
"I know …" Qin Xiao Yu knew that she couldn't refuse. She scolded Xia Ruofei in her heart, then said, "Bureau Chief, I'll go out first …"
"Okay! Contact that comrade immediately! " Chen Bo said, "We have to finish the reward ceremony tomorrow. I've already contacted the media, so don't drop the ball!"
"Yes!" Qin Xiao Yu answered weakly, then left Chen Bo's office.
She had been thinking, "Isn't the bureau chief making a big fuss over nothing? Isn't it just catching a wanted criminal? Even if he wanted to give out the reward, he could just ask him to give me an account and transfer it over. What's with the ceremony? "
In fact, what Qin Xiao Yu didn't know was that Chen Bo really attached great importance to this job.
As the bureau chief of the Public Security Bureau, Chen Bo was a high-ranking deputy director. He also had the position of mayor's assistant in the municipal government. At the same time, he was also a member of the provincial public security department.
Moreover, Chen Bo was an old deputy director. He had been in this position for six years.
In a few months, the executive deputy director of the public security department would be 58 years old. According to past practice, at this age, he would retire from the second line and wait for two years to retire.
Of course, this wasn't inevitable. There were still many leaders who worked until the age of retirement.
However, Deputy Director Guo's health wasn't very good. As early as the beginning of the year, there were rumors that he would be transferred to the position of deputy director of the provincial political consultative conference after his 58th birthday and wait for retirement.
Most of the executive deputy directors of the public security department were high-ranking officials. Even if they didn't get promoted immediately when they first took office, after a few years of experience, they would get promoted to the position.
Therefore, many people had their eyes on this position, and the veteran Chen Bo was naturally one of them.
He had always been engaged in public security work. He was professional and had enough experience. He was just short of a political achievement that would make people's eyes shine.
This time, the arrest of Zhao Lianxi was no doubt a pillow when he was sleepy.
Chen Bo reported the situation to the municipal government and the provincial government as quickly as possible. After the report was reported one by one, the department's commendation order quickly came down. This made Chen Bo very excited.
At this juncture, this achievement was simply a timely rain! It would directly help him compete for that position.
Therefore, he had been paying attention to the case and was ready to add fuel to the fire at any time.
Personally giving the award to the people who acted bravely for a just cause was something he had been paying attention to these few days. He had also personally contacted many media outlets and was ready to show his face and add fuel to the fire.
Qin Xiao Yu didn't understand this. It was not wrong for her to be scolded by Chen Bo.
Helplessly, Qin Xiao Yu could only contact Lu You again. This time, she didn't dare to continue to let Lu You pass on the message. Instead, she asked for Xia Ruofei's phone number from Lu You and was prepared to "lower herself" to call Xia Ruofei personally.
Unexpectedly, Xia Ruofei didn't even pick up the phone and directly hung up the phone.
Qin Xiao Yu had the urge to strangle Xia Ruofei.
However, Chen Bo's words were still in her ears. No matter how dissatisfied Qin Xiao Yu was, she could only forcibly suppress her anger. After taking a few deep breaths, she stabilized her emotions and called Xia Ruofei again.
Xia Ruofei, who was driving, saw that it was the same number. Without thinking, he hung up and set this number to the blacklist.
He also said to himself, "The harassment calls nowadays are really persistent. After hanging up once, they still don't give up …"
Qin Xiao Yu was going crazy. She said angrily, "I'll keep calling. I don't believe that you won't pick up the phone!"
After that, Qin Xiao Yu pressed the redial button fiercely.
"Sorry, the number you have dialed is turned off …"
A cold prompt came from the phone.
In fact, this was the setting that Xia Ruofei set on his phone. As long as the number that was blacklisted called, the voice response would always be "turned off".
There were many ways to set up the blacklist. His was not the most ruthless. One of the ways was that when the blacklisted number called, it would first connect and then quickly automatically hang up.
Qin Xiao Yu didn't know that her number had been blacklisted by Xia Ruofei. She didn't believe it and called several times in a row. Every time, it was a "turned off" prompt.
She was so angry that she wanted to smash something.
"Do I really have to personally go and ask him?" Qin Xiao Yu said to herself.
Chen Bo's serious face appeared in her mind. Qin Xiao Yu gloomily realized that she really had no other choice but to personally make a trip.
The time limit set by Chen Bo was too tight. Tomorrow was the public award ceremony. Even the reporters were invited. If she screwed up, it wouldn't be as simple as a few words of criticism like today.
When Qin Xiao Yu thought that she had to personally go and beg Xia Ruofei, her heart felt as uncomfortable as if she had eaten a bedbug.
But there was no other way. She could only grit her teeth, grab her phone and handbag and walk out. She drove a police car and went straight to Taoyuan Farm.
She had already cursed Xia Ruofei's eighteen generations of ancestors in her heart.
Xia Ruofei didn't know that he had inadvertently pulled up the hatred of the big chest police flower. He hurried all the way back to Taoyuan Farm and repeatedly apologized to Manager Li.
At this time, it was already noon, so they didn't immediately go to survey the site. Xia Ruofei pulled Manager Li to the staff cafeteria to eat together.
He also specially asked Cao Tieshu's wife to cook a few dishes. Then he took out a bottle of Drunken Eight Immortals stored in the space and drank a few cups with Manager Li and Feng Jing.
During the meal, Xia Ruofei also formally introduced Manager Li and Feng Jing to let them communicate more about the construction of projects in the future. If it wasn't a particularly important matter, they didn't need to look for him.
Feng Jing was afraid of not having anything to do. No matter how much work she had to do, she would gladly endure it. And Manager Li was very clear about the close relationship between Xia Ruofei and his boss. So he wasn't the slightest bit dissatisfied with Xia Ruofei's practice of being a hands-off shopkeeper. Everyone chatted happily during the meal.
Xia Ruofei also used the meal time to briefly introduce to Manager Li the construction plan that he and Feng Jing discussed.
After hearing that Xia Ruofei planned to build a lot of vegetable greenhouses, especially a cold storage, Manager Li immediately said that he would use his connections in the industry to find a professional company to be responsible for the technical design and guidance of the cold storage.
Because after all, this was different from normal construction projects. Manager Li had his own specialization. He didn't dare to rashly do something that he wasn't familiar with. Especially for Xia Ruofei's project, his boss specifically called him to the office and told him that he must ensure that the quality was top notch. Manager Li didn't dare to take it lightly.
After the meal, Feng Jing asked Liu Qian to make a copy of the farm's new floor plan and give it to Manager Li. Then the three of them prepared to go to the site of the new land on the north and south side of the farm.
When Xia Ruofei and the other two stepped out of the cafeteria, a Passat police car drove to the small square in front of the building. After the sharp screech of the brakes, the angry Qin Xiaoyu pushed open the door and got out of the car.
When she saw the full Xia Ruofei picking his teeth with a toothpick, she became even angrier. She was called over by the bureau chief when it was close to getting off work. Then she tried to contact Xia Ruofei but to no avail. So she directly drove to Taoyuan Farm. At this moment, her stomach was rumbling with hunger!
And that guy was eating while burping and picking his teeth.
How could she tolerate this?
