Chen Xing waved his hoe and dug a few times. What he dug up were all clumps of soil. Lin Jinhe, who had been paying attention to the situation, quickly walked over and said with a smile. "Secretary Chen, digging winter bamboo shoots isn't as simple as digging up the ground with a hoe. There's a lot to pay attention to. The ones that I mentioned earlier with a small head sticking out of the ground are easy to find. As for those that are completely buried underground, you have to observe the ground. If there's a slight protrusion, there might be winter bamboo shoots underneath."
"Farming also requires knowledge. Did everyone hear that? When digging winter bamboo shoots later, don't dig up the entire bamboo forest. You have to find the right spot before digging." Hearing Lin Jinhe's words, Chen Xing said half-jokingly. His face gradually became serious and he said, "Every profession requires knowledge. As cadres, we should go down to the grass-roots level more often. Agriculture is the foundation of people's livelihood and the foundation of a country. If cadres like us don't go down to understand more and only sit in the office giving orders and making decisions, that is the greatest irresponsibility to the people. Comrade Sida, what do you think?"
"Secretary Chen, you're right. No matter what work we do, we must have sufficient research and understanding." Wei Sida nodded and said.
The group of people chatted and laughed. The morning passed quickly and many winter bamboo shoots had been dug out of the ground. Chen Xing looked at these winter bamboo shoots and asked Lin Jinhe, "If this kind of winter bamboo shoots were to be sold on the market, how much can it be sold for?"
"One catty can be sold for seven or eight yuan. I heard that in some places, it can be sold for more than ten yuan." Lin Jinhe said.
"The market price in every place is different." Chen Xing nodded slightly and then said, "In that case, the winter bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest can also be a lot of income."
"At most, it can be sold for two or three thousand yuan." Lin Jinhe shook his head and said with a smile, "And it may not be sold out, because we don't lack winter bamboo shoots here."
"That's true." Hearing Lin Jinhe's words, Chen Xing nodded.
The winter bamboo shoots were packed into several cloth bags. The others helped Lin Jinhe carry the winter bamboo shoots back. Chen Xing also wanted to help carry a cloth bag, but Huang Jianghua took the lead. No one dared to let Chen Xing carry the bag. There were enough people. In the end, except for carrying a hoe, Chen Xing had an easy time.
On the way back, Chen Xing was thinking about ways to increase the income of the villagers. The cadres came down to the village and lived and worked with the villagers. It was not just a formality. They did it deliberately to understand the feelings of the people, strengthen the smart and civilized construction of the village, and help the villagers to increase their income. This was the essential purpose, and it was also something meaningful. They did not stay in the village just for the sake of staying.
By the way, I saw that the truck came down from the mountain. It seemed to have gone back and forth two or three times in the morning. What was that truck doing? Chen Xing pointed at the small cement road built around the mountain and asked Lin Jinhe.
That truck was the transport truck of the mineral water factory on the mountain. It was responsible for transporting mineral water out every day. Lin Jinhe smiled.
Mineral water factory? You have a mineral water factory here? Chen Xing was very surprised.
Yes, there were many years ago. Secretary Chen, didn't I tell you? It is the stream that flows in front of my house. The water from the stream can be directly scooped up to drink. The water comes down from the mountain. The mineral water factory is built on the mountain. Lin Jinhe explained.
Oh, how big is the mineral water factory? How is it developing? Chen Xing was interested when he heard that there was a mineral water factory in the mountain.
It was not a big scale. A few years ago, it was quite popular in the city. It even had an advertisement on the city TV station. Now it was not doing well. The mineral water produced could only be sold in the county. Lin Jinhe said.
As they were talking, they had already come down from the mountain forest. The sound of running water came into their ears. The stream was in front of them. At this moment, when Chen Xing heard Lin Jinhe mention the stream again, he couldn't help but walk over. The clear stream was pleasing to the eye. Chen Xing tried to scoop up a little with his hand and drink it.
Secretary Chen, what do you think of it? Is it thousands of times better than tap water? I have been to the county. The tap water that people in the county drink is too strong. I can't get used to it at all. Lin Jinhe.
Hmm, it is quite sweet. Chen Xing nodded and looked up the mountain. This is pure natural mountain spring water. With such good water quality, it is a pity that Huishan County did not make use of this advantage to build a mineral water factory.
Although he was thinking about it, Chen Xing knew that he still did not know much about the situation. It is too early to make a conclusion. In the next few days, he will have enough time to slowly understand it.
At noon, they had lunch at Lin Jinhe's house. Lin Jinhe smiled and picked up a big winter bamboo shoot that he dug today. He washed it and cooked it. He said that he would let Chen Xing and the rest have a taste of the winter bamboo shoots in the mountain.
Lin Yu-yu wandered around Lin Jinhe's house, looking at her phone from time to time. When she saw Lin Siyu coming out of the house, Lin Yu-yu revealed an excited smile and pulled Lin Siyu to the side to whisper to her.
New City Hotel. Zhang Lixing was eating in his private room. Occasionally, he would look at the time and walk to the huge floor-to-ceiling window to look down. Zhang Lixing looked a little annoyed.
Xiao Wang, call Sun Hongxing again and ask if he is here. Zhang Lixing raised his eyebrows impatiently. Just when he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. Wang Huacheng, who was about to take out his phone to make a call, did not rush to make a call. He walked over to open the door and saw Sun Hongxing. Wang Huacheng smiled and kept his phone.
The Mayor has been waiting for you for a long time. Wang Huacheng said.
In order to wait for Xiao Jiang, there was a delay. Wang Huacheng came in with the young man beside him and explained to Zhang Lixing.
It's good that you are here. Sit. Zhang Lixing's eyes swept over the young man beside Wang Huacheng. He nodded indifferently and walked to his seat.
Mayor, this is the member of the task force that Zhang Wanzheng transferred. His name is Jiang Yu. If you want to know anything, you can ask him. Wang Huacheng introduced the young man beside him.
Zhang Lixing looked at the young man that Wang Huacheng mentioned. The other party said that there was a surprise near noon. It seemed that it was this young man. Last night, Sun Hongxing said that the task force that Zhang Wanzheng transferred did a good job in keeping the secret. He did not expect that he would pull out one of them today. Zhang Lixing couldn't help but feel a little happy. It turned out that as long as he worked hard, there would be loopholes.
Xiao Jiang, don't be nervous. Have you had lunch? If you haven't, eat a little first. Zhang Lixing smiled kindly. The young man in front of him was obviously a little reserved.
Mayor Zhang, no need. I will go back to the unit soon. I can't be out for too long. Jiang Yu waved his hand again and again.
Yes, Mayor Zhang, Xiao Jiang came out at noon with the excuse that his mother suddenly felt unwell. The task force set up by Zhang Wanzheng was very strict. Everyone who wanted to come out separately had to be recorded. They couldn't come out without a good reason. Sun Hongxing also said at this moment, "So, Mayor Zhang, if you want to ask anything, just ask directly. Xiao Jiang has to go back later.
Well, I won't beat around the bush. Xiao Jiang, I ask you, what case are you working on? Why does it involve Liang Jing? " Hearing this, Zhang Lixing didn't talk nonsense. He was more impatient than anyone else.
It was the case of Qin Peng. Jiang Yu answered truthfully.
"Qin Peng?" "Who is Qin Peng?" Zhang Lixing frowned. In his eyes, he didn't know that Qin Peng was such a small figure.
He was a deputy section chief of the Local Taxation Bureau of Fengshan District.
How big a case could a deputy section chief of the Local Taxation Bureau of Fengshan District be? Why did Zhang Wanzheng personally set up a task force to investigate it? Zhang Lixing's eyes narrowed slightly. With just a little thought, he could get enough information from Jiang Yu's words. Zhang Lixing's expression gradually became serious.
Jiang Yu hesitated and glanced in Sun Hongxing's direction. Seeing this, Sun Hongxing nodded slightly and said, "Xiao Jiang, didn't I tell you to answer whatever the mayor asks you? Don't hide anything."
Sun Hongxing's words made Jiang Yu no longer hesitate. He told him about the investigation of Qin Peng's case, but he didn't hear the recording directly. He just heard it by accident. "We, the members of the task force, have more or less heard and guessed something about this case. Everyone has some idea in their hearts. In the end, it is very likely to point to a big leader in the city."
"Why? Even the people inside the task force don't know everything about the case?" Zhang Lixing frowned again.
"Well, we don't know everything about the case, because Secretary Zhang used the method of dividing the investigation into several groups. Each group is responsible for its own part and can't inquire about each other. The person in charge of each group reports directly to Secretary Zhang, and then Secretary Zhang gives unified instructions for the next step." Jiang Yu said.
"He's so careful. What on earth is he investigating?" Zhang Lixing subconsciously turned his head to look at Sun Hongxing.
"I don't know what this Zhang Wanzheng is doing, but he deserves to be from the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission. His means and methods of investigation are really difficult to exploit." Sun Hongxing sighed. "I guess Zhang Wanzheng also knows that the Discipline Inspection Commission is also a mixed bag. As an outsider, he can indeed eliminate unexpected factors to the greatest extent by using this method to investigate the case."
"No matter how capable he is, this is Mount Wang. Even if he is from the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission, he can't investigate whoever he wants." Zhang Lixing's anger rose and he pounded the table.
When Sun Hongxing heard Zhang Lixing's words, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. He winked at Jiang Yu and motioned for him to continue.
Before Jiang Yu could speak, Zhang Lixing asked first. "Xiao Jiang, you said that the case you handled will eventually lead to a certain leader in the city. Who are you talking about?"
"Mayor Zhang, it's … it's …" Jiang Yu stammered and didn't say anything.
"Gee, why can't you speak properly?" Zhang Lixing was in a bad mood and said angrily.
"Mayor Zhang, should I say it?" Jiang Yu asked cautiously.
"Just say it. I won't eat you." Zhang Lixing shook his head.
"Mayor Zhang, we heard that they will investigate you in the end." At the end of his words, Jiang Yu's voice had become lower. He glanced at Zhang Lixing and looked at the table.
"Bang!" Zhang Lixing pounded the table and stood up. "What did you say?"
Zhang Lixing's eyes widened and his expression was ferocious. "Investigate me?" "Hey, does Zhang Wanzheng have the guts to do that?"
"Mayor Zhang, I'm not 100% sure, but I'm also in the task force. Although I can't inquire about the case with other teams, I once had a private dinner with a friend in the team that directly interrogated Qin Peng. He accidentally spilled the beans, so I know a little bit. In fact, it's not just me. Everyone in the task force has more or less guessed it, but no one dared to say it because they all know that this case is of great importance." Jiang Yu said.
"Then tell me, why do you think they will investigate me?" Zhang Lixing sneered. He didn't believe that Zhang Wanzheng dared to investigate him. They were both members of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and the main leader of the city. Zhang Wanzheng was not qualified to investigate him.
"I also heard from my friend who spilled the beans that Qin Peng was involved in a recording, and that recording was made by him. It was … it was you and Liang Jing." Speaking of this, Jiang Yu coughed lightly and didn't dare to say more.
"I asked you to say it, so just say it. Why do you keep hemming and hawing?" Zhang Lixing said impatiently.
"Mayor Zhang, that recording was made when you and Liang Jing were having sex at night." Seeing Zhang Lixing's tense face, Jiang Yu had to say it out loud, but he didn't dare to say it too directly.
Zhang Lixing's expression froze. His eyes widened and his pupils dilated as he stared at Jiang Yu. Since Jiang Yu said that, Zhang Lixing almost believed him.
There was silence in the box. Jiang Yu had said everything he needed to say. Seeing that Zhang Lixing was about to eat someone, he naturally shut up. Sun Hongxing, who was next to him, also kept quiet at the moment. He knew that Zhang Lixing must be on the verge of rage now, so he had to give Zhang Lixing time to digest.
Wang Huacheng stood quietly on the side, staring at the floor blankly. At this time, even he, the secretary, didn't dare to speak. He secretly glanced at Zhang Lixing and didn't know what to say. No one knew the relationship between Zhang Lixing and Liang Jing better than him, the secretary. He didn't expect that this time someone had recorded it. Wang Huacheng's face twitched. At this moment, he thought of a saying, "This is the trouble caused by not being able to control your crotch." But as a man, Wang Huacheng also knew that no one could be Liu Xiahui.
After a while, Zhang Lixing took a deep breath, calmed down, and asked, "Do you know when the recording was made?"
"Mayor, I don't know. I only have a rough idea. Someone let it slip, so I know a little more. The team in charge of the trial of Qin Peng has the most detailed understanding of the case. Now that Liang Jing has been taken back, their team will be the one to interrogate him. The other teams can't interfere or ask about it." Jiang Yu said.
Zhang Lixing's face was gloomy. He didn't ask any more questions. He knew that Jiang Yu had almost told him everything he needed to know. There was no more valuable information to ask.
The atmosphere was silent. Jiang Yu looked at the time and cast a glance at Sun Hongxing. Seeing Sun Hongxing nod, he stood up. "Mayor Zhang, I have to go back to the County Committee.
Well, you go back first. " Zhang Lixing's face softened and he squeezed out a smile. "Little Jiang, you did a good job this time. I won't treat you badly. If you have any news in the future, you must send it to me in time."
"OK, I understand." Jiang Yu nodded.
Watching Jiang Yu leave, Zhang Lixing's expression kept changing. The news that Jiang Yu brought to him was even more shocking than the news that Liang Jing was taken away by the Commission for Discipline Inspection last night. To be exact, it couldn't be mentioned in the same breath. No matter how much he protected Liang Jing, Liang Jing was just an outsider to him. What really mattered was his own business. But now, he was obviously more indifferent to Liang Jing's matter because it had already involved him.
"Hongxing, can you trust Little Jiang?" Zhang Lixing was silent for a moment, then turned to ask Sun Hongxing.
"Of course. Mayor, don't worry. Since he has come here, there is no turning back." Sun Hongxing chuckled.
"Last night, you said that the special task force transferred by Zhang Wanzheng was not easy to infiltrate. How did you find a person so quickly?" Zhang Lixing looked at Sun Hongxing in confusion.
"Flies don't bite seamless eggs. Jiang Yu's family is short of money, so I started from this point. But I didn't expect that he would be bought over so easily." Sun Hongxing smiled.
"Why does he need money?" Zhang Lixing asked.
"His mother has always been in poor health. His father doesn't make a lot of money. The old couple are supported by the young couple. Besides, they have a child at home. They must be under a lot of financial pressure. I'm afraid that all this guy thinks about is money." Sun Hongxing said.
"Well, it's good to have a weakness. Such a person is easy to control." When Zhang Lixing heard Sun Hongxing's words, he felt a lot more at ease. Jiang Yu was an insignificant person, but this insignificant person might play a key role. Zhang Lixing had no choice but to pay attention to him.
"By the way, I forgot to ask him about the relationship between Qin Peng and Liang Jing." Zhang Lixing frowned. Since the Commission for Discipline Inspection was investigating Qin Peng and Liang Jing, their relationship must have been investigated. It was much easier than finding someone else to investigate.
"I've asked. Qin Peng and Liang Jing were classmates. They went to the same school from primary school to high school." Sun Hongxing said. He had learned about what Jiang Yu said to Zhang Lixing on the way here, and he even asked for more details. Now that Zhang Lixing asked, he told him directly.
"Classmates from primary school to high school? Their relationship couldn't be better? " Zhang Lixing's eyes were cold. He remembered that Liang Jing had asked him for a favor last night, and she had looked embarrassed. In the end, the people from the Commission for Discipline Inspection arrived, and Liang Jing didn't have time to say it. Now that he heard that Qin Peng was already under the control of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and they had a recording of him and Liang Jing, it wasn't hard for Zhang Lixing to figure out what was going on.
"What a shameless couple!" Zhang Lixing suddenly pounded the table hard and scolded.
"Mayor, the most urgent thing now is to know how far the case has been investigated and then think of a solution." Sun Hongxing was startled by Zhang Lixing's sudden pounding on the table and said.
"Ask Jiang Yu to inquire about the case as much as possible. As for the countermeasures, it's not too late to think about it later. This is Mount Wang, and Zhang Wanzheng can't make any waves in a short time." Zhang Lixing's face was gloomy. He knew that he couldn't be anxious now. The more anxious he was, the more disorderly he would be. But he couldn't ignore the recording in Qin Peng's hands. It was a time bomb for him. Now Zhang Wanzheng had just begun to investigate, and he didn't know what would happen after a long time. The more Zhang Lixing thought about it, the more he broke into a cold sweat. Fortunately, he got the news now, or the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Mayor, I'm thinking, for such a big case, did Zhang Wanzheng get the approval of Secretary Chen first?" Sun Hongxing looked at Zhang Lixing and said.
Sun Hongxing's words made Zhang Lixing's heart jump, and a greater sense of crisis shrouded his heart. For the first time, Zhang Lixing, who had always been smooth, showed a little panic in the depths of his eyes.
The solemn atmosphere made the whole box more and more quiet. Zhang Lixing didn't speak, so Sun Hongxing and Wang Huacheng could only remain silent. This time, everyone could imagine that Zhang Lixing had encountered some trouble. They couldn't guess the outcome, but they were tied to the same car as Zhang Lixing, so they could only advance and retreat together.
The cold wind blew and made the car window rustle. At night, the mountain village was quiet and tranquil. Although it was only about seven o 'clock in the evening, there was no one on the dark mountain road. Only the occasional passing motorbike would make people realize that there were people living in the mountain. At night, life in the mountain was monotonous and boring. Other than playing cards and chatting, the villagers were watching TV at home.
The digital TV in the county had not been extended here. The villagers bought the "big pot lid" separately and put it on the roof to receive satellite signals. This was actually prohibited by the radio and television department. If it was caught, it would be confiscated. However, Chen Xing didn't say anything after seeing it. The rules and regulations were not the same. As the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, he couldn't be so stubborn.
The car was driving on the mountain road. At this time, Chen Xing was ready to go to the town. In addition to his secretary and driver, Wei Sida and Lin Siyu were also with him. As for the other staff member, when he saw the villagers playing cards, he was interested in the fun and did not follow them out.
Xiao Huang, you have to keep a good record of your stay in the village this time. When you go back, you have to come up with a summary. Every problem that the villagers have reported must also be recorded in detail and solved seriously. Chen Xing sat in the car and said to Huang Jianghua casually.
Behind the car was a motorcycle that kept a certain distance from them. Lin Yu-yu sat on the motorcycle with a jacket draped over her shoulders. Her body was still shivering. It was unusually cold in the mountains at night, and it was winter in December. She didn't feel it during the day when the sun was shining, but when night fell, Lin Yu-yu was so cold that she clenched her teeth and her lips turned blue from the cold.
Xiao Lin, are you cold? Do you want me to give you my jacket? Zheng Hui seemed to feel that Lin Yu-yu's body was shivering a little, so he asked with concern. It was rare for him to have a chance to please his sweetheart.
Forget it. Give me your jacket. Be careful that you don't freeze into a sieve. I don't think you are any better. Lin Yu-yu twitched the corner of her mouth. Zheng Hui was sitting in the front and driving, so he would only be colder than her.
Sigh, being a leader is so comfortable. Look at him sitting in a small car, and there is a heater in the car, but we have to drive a motorcycle in the mountain wind. Zheng Hui smiled bitterly. Xiao Lin, will your method work? Can you trick Secretary Chen into that game hall? If you don't succeed, we will be fooling around at night. The mountain wind is really hard to bear.
Let's give it a try. Besides, I didn't ask Siyu to trick him into coming out at night. I heard from Siyu that it was this Secretary Chen who suggested to go to the town to see the situation, so he came out. Lin Yu-yu said. Her words diverted her attention, and she felt that the coldness on her body seemed to have lessened a little.
It would be better if they came out during the day, but it was really cold at night. Zheng Hui laughed.
Even if we don't go to the game hall, we have to follow Secretary Chen out. After all, this is our mission. Lin Yu-yu said.
Oh, Brother Zheng, do you think we should report to the director? Lin Yu-yu asked.
Report what?
Report Secretary Chen coming out of the town.
If you plan to lure Secretary Chen to that game hall, I think it's better not to report to the director.
Oh.
The two of them spoke one after another, and Lin Yu-yu finally fell silent. Zheng Hui's words hinted that the director Ye Peicai had something to do with that game hall, and Lin Yu-yu could hear it.
Little Lin, if you really want to investigate that Game Hall, this might also be an opportunity. Although your method might not necessarily work, it is still better than rashly investigating that Game Hall by yourself. Zheng Hui saw that Lin Yu-yu didn't say anything, so he said.
Brother Zheng, is the director really the kind of person you say? Lin Yu-yu asked in disbelief.
Xiao Lin, you just graduated from the police academy not long ago, don't think too highly of everyone. You may know a person's face but not his heart. Zheng Hui said.
But I think the director has always been a very decent person. Lin Yu-yu said.
If you think he's decent, then that's right. Which leader doesn't want to be a bit more decent? Zheng Hui sneered. Everyone knows how to put on a nice coat for themselves.
But what I told you, don't tell anyone else, or I'll be in trouble. After Zheng Hui finished speaking, he quickly added.
