Huang Jincheng looked at the new city building in front of him. Seeing the surprise on his face, Qian Xinlai was a little proud and said with a smile, "Director Huang, what do you think? Does my new city building impress you?
It's very good. Wangshan is not developed, but your new city building stands out. It's no worse than those five-star hotels in Nanzhou. " The man smiled.
Aiya, I was so happy that I couldn't find my bearings after receiving such an evaluation from Director Huang. Qian Xinlai smiled exaggeratedly.
When Huang Jincheng heard Qian Xinlai's words, he turned to look at Qian Xinlai and smiled. Qian Xinlai was also a good person. Huang Jincheng was also quite surprised by Qian Xinlai's property in Wangshan. Although he had dealt with Qian Xinlai many times before, he had never been to Wangshan. Seeing that the whole new city building in front of him belonged to Qian Xinlai, Huang Jincheng thought to himself that Qian Xinlai was worthy of his title as the richest man in Wangshan.
"Director Huang, please. I've prepared a banquet for you to welcome you." Qian Xinlai said with a smile and made a gesture of invitation.
"Mr. Qian, you're too polite." Huang Jincheng shook his head and smiled. Although he said so, he had already started to walk into the hotel.
In the Municipal Party Committee.
Chen Xing and Xu Yuanfei were sitting in the office. Xu Yuanfei made a final report to Chen Xing on the preparations for the Overseas Businessmen's Fellowship. After listening, Chen Xing just smiled and nodded. He was neither satisfied nor dissatisfied with Xu Yuanfei's work. The United Front Minister, who claimed to be ill all year round, was now doing a good job. During this period of time, he had been staying in Wangshan, so Chen Xing had nothing to complain about.
"According to the statistics you have before, there are many overseas compatriots in Wangshan. I hope our first Overseas Businessmen's Conference will be a success." Chen Xing said with a smile.
"Now there are many people who will attend the conference. I think it will be a success." Xu Yuanfei replied, following Chen Xing's words.
"We don't just want more people to attend the conference. More importantly, we need to transform these overseas businessmen's resources into business investment resources. This is the most important thing. Wangshan is poor, so we can only make use of all available resources to the greatest extent. Otherwise, we don't know when we can develop." Chen Xing smiled. Although the 10 billion credit funds from the provincial bank would come soon, it was not much for a prefecture-level city. It was not a lot for a prefecture-level city. The city's construction, public infrastructure investment, investment, people's livelihood, and so on, required a lot of investment. 10 billion seemed a lot, but of it was of of the base of of the city.
As Chen Xing spoke, he got up and walked to the window. The office building he was in was not tall, and his office was only on the third floor. Looking out, he could not see very far. But even so, he could still see rows of low-rise buildings at a glance.
Although the development and heritage of a city could not be measured by the number of high-rise buildings, it was undeniable that the number of high-rise buildings could still reflect the development speed of a city to a certain extent.
In Wangshan, there were not many high-rise buildings in the city. Because of this, the Xincheng Building, which was known as one of the landmarks of Wangshan, was so eye-catching.
"As officials, we don't dare to say that we are very noble, but sitting in such a position, if we can't do something for the people, we will not only be doing nothing, but we will also be scolded by the people. Wangshan is poor, and most of the people's lives are not good. We can only try our best to do something practical for the people. The ultimate goal of development is to let the people enjoy the welfare. I think this is the fundamental goal of development." Chen Xing said with a smile.
When Xu Yuanfei heard Chen Xing's words, he narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Chen Xing's back. Xu Yuanfei did not know whether the young secretary was speaking from the bottom of his heart or if he was just putting on a show. Although Chen Xing's series of actions after arriving at Wangshan gave people hope, Xu Yuanfei had been in the officialdom for more than 20 years. Although he did not dare to say that he had seen countless people, he had seen too many different kinds of people. Xu Yuanfei had hope for Chen Xing, but he did not dare to have too much confidence.
As the old saying went, a long journey tests a horse's stamina, and time reveals a man's heart. Xu Yuanfei hoped that Chen Xing could stand the test of time.
Looking forward, Xu Yuanfei's eyes finally fell on the Xincheng Building with a complicated look on his face. Compared with Li Yanpei, he was ashamed of his Party spirit and principles as a cadre. He did not have Li Yanpei's boldness. More than that, he held the mentality that it was better to avoid trouble as much as possible and not meddle in other people's business. Was he being selfish?
Maybe he was selfish, while Li Yanpei was noble. But in the end, Li Yanpei almost lost his life and was still in the hospital, while he was still sitting here safe and sound.
Everyone had a selfish side. If one did not look out for himself, heaven and earth would destroy him. Xu Yuanfei knew that he was very selfish, but he also hoped that Zhang Lixing and his group could be punished. However, in the process, Xu Yuanfei still held the mentality of not getting involved as much as possible. He would provide some help to Chen Xing, but he would never get too involved. Putting his own safety first was Xu Yuanfei's code of conduct.
"Secretary Chen, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first." Xu Yuanfei stood up and said.
"Okay, you go ahead." Chen Xing looked back at Xu Yuanfei and nodded.
Watching Xu Yuanfei leave, Chen Xing frowned slightly and then sighed. He was not in the mood to think about Xu Yuanfei. Turning back to look at the Xincheng Building, Chen Xing frowned. Just like the gloomy weather at the moment, Chen Xing's heart was weighed down by a big stone.
Zhang Wanzheng had left, and he knew nothing about Huang Jincheng, the newcomer. Would his work in the future be more difficult?
Chen Xing did not know that Huang Jincheng, whom he was thinking about at the moment, was having a meal with Qian Xinlai in the Xincheng Hotel. It was almost night. If it were not for the fact that the sky was gradually darkening, Chen Xing would not have noticed that the afternoon had passed so quickly.
Turning to his desk, Chen Xing sorted out a few documents on the desk. Then he took out his phone and called Chang Shengjun. On the first day of work in the New Year, Chen Xing planned to have a gathering with Chang Shengjun.
When he walked to the corridor and saw Lin Siyu cleaning the floor, Chen Xing shook his head and smiled. "Xiao Lin, isn't there a cleaner who can clean the floor? Why are you wasting your time?"
"Secretary, I have nothing to do now. I just want to clean the floor. I have nothing to do anyway." Seeing that it was Chen Xing, Lin Siyu hurriedly stopped.
"If you have nothing to do, you can get off work early. It's still the Spring Festival. Actually, you don't have to come to work so early. You can come after the seventh day. Who asked you to come so early?" Chen Xing said with a smile.
"Secretary, I came here by myself. It's boring to stay at home. Besides, there's no one at home." Lin Siyu said and lowered his head gloomily.
"Oh, I almost forgot about your family. How is your mother's condition?" Thinking of Lin Siyu's family situation, Chen Xing could only sigh in his heart. People who eat grains will also get sick. No matter who comes to this world, they can't avoid getting sick. It's just the difference between serious and minor illnesses. Lin Siyu's family was poor, and her mother got that kind of disease. It was really pitiful for this little girl in front of him. She hadn't even stepped out of school yet, but she had to shoulder the burden of the family.
"Fortunately, the doctor said that the disease is under control." Lin Siyu nodded and said.
"That's good. I believe that she will gradually get better." Chen Xing comforted her. Although he said that, he thought differently in his heart. People with malignant tumors were only one step away from death.
"Well, thank you, Secretary Chen, for your kind words. I also believe that my mother will get better." Lin Siyu nodded vigorously.
"What a filial and lovely girl." Seeing Lin Siyu's appearance, Chen Xing couldn't help laughing. He looked at the time and said, "Well, don't clean. It's time to get off work. No matter whether there is anyone at home or not, it's time to relax during the Spring Festival."
After saying that, Chen Xing gave Lin Siyu a smile and walked forward. At this time, Huang Jianghua had already heard the noise and came out of his small office. When Chen Xing saw him, he said with a smile, "Xiao Huang, you're free to do whatever you want at night. You don't have to follow me."
"Secretary, I haven't been in Mountain Gaze with you for a long time. I'm not familiar with the people and the place. Besides, I don't have many friends. In fact, there's nothing to play with." Hearing Chen Xing's words, Huang Jianghua glanced at Lin Siyu. He was happy in his heart, but he said that.
"It's because I'm not familiar with it that I want to go out and have fun." Chen Xing said with a smile, "It's the Spring Festival. I won't take up too much of your rest time."
Since Chen Xing said so, Huang Jianghua didn't say anything more. He couldn't wait to go out with Lin Siyu at night. Seeing Chen Xing's figure disappear in the corridor, Huang Jianghua turned his head and winked at Lin Siyu, hinting that she was also going to leave.
After leaving the Municipal Party Committee, Chen Xing took a car to the place where he and Chang Shengjun had agreed to meet. He also gave Li Yong a day off and told him not to pick him up later. The place where he and Chang Shengjun were to meet was not far from the guest house of the Municipal Party Committee. After eating, he could walk back by himself. He was so pampered that he needed his servants to serve him step by step.
This was an ordinary restaurant on the side of the street. Chen Xing and Chang Shengjun were not picky people when it came to eating. They could just pick a random place to eat. They didn't have to go to a high-class restaurant so often.
Chang Shengjun had already arrived. He was smoking in a small private room on the second floor of the restaurant. When he saw Chen Xing come in, Chang Shengjun quickly stood up.
"Take a seat. It's after work. There aren't so many rules." Chen Xing waved his hand and smiled.
The private room was simple enough. Chen Xing looked around the private room, then walked to Chang Shengjun and sat down.
"Should we go somewhere else?" Chang Shengjun asked Chen Xing for his opinion. He was the one who picked this place.
"It's fine that there's no need." Chen Xing smiled. He had just said it casually. He turned to look at Chang Shengjun and said with a smile, "Shengjun, this is probably the first Spring Festival that you haven't celebrated in the capital, right?"
"That's not true. Although I used to work in the capital, the workload in the department is also quite heavy. Sometimes during the Spring Festival, I still have to handle cases in other places." Chang Shengjun shook his head and smiled. After putting on this police uniform, he wouldn't be able to have a normal holiday like ordinary people.
"That's true." Hearing Chang Shengjun's words, Chen Xing nodded.
As they talked, they ordered a few more side dishes. When the dishes were served, Chen Xing asked the waiter to bring a few bottles of beer and poured a glass for Chang Shengjun. Chen Xing said with a smile, "Shengjun, let's have a toast. Just take it as …" Chen Xing wanted to say something to celebrate, but halfway through his words, he realized that there was nothing to celebrate. Since the two of them came to work in Mountain Gaze, their work had not been smooth at all. Apart from annoyances, there was really nothing to celebrate.
After thinking for a while, Chen Xing said with a wry smile, "Just take it as a celebration of the New Year and a new atmosphere. I wish our work in the new year will be smooth."
"Well, that's true. I also hope that our work in the new year will be smooth." Chang Shengjun nodded in agreement. He was trying his best to hold his breath now. As a policeman for nearly 20 years, he had suffered a Waterloo as soon as he arrived at Mountain Gaze. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a great shame and humiliation for him, who had been a policeman for nearly 20 years. He had been tricked several times, but now he had no way to fight back.
"It seems that you, the Secretary of the Party Group of the Municipal Bureau, are full of resentment." Seeing Chang Shengjun's expression, Chen Xing said with a smile, "I don't have any resentment.
But I do have some anger. " Chang Shengjun smiled.
"Alas, you have to hold back your anger no matter how angry you are. You can't act on impulse." Chen Xing sighed and said.
"Secretary Chen, don't worry. I know what I'm doing. I'll focus on the overall situation and won't act on my own." Chang Shengjun said seriously. Seeing the frown on Chen Xing's face, Chang Shengjun could roughly guess what Chen Xing was worried about. After a moment of silence, Chang Shengjun said, "Secretary Chen is worried about the matter of the Commission for Discipline Inspection?"
"Yes and no, I'm worried about both." Chen Xing raised his eyebrows. Zhang Wanzheng had been transferred away, and he didn't know what kind of person Huang Jincheng, the newcomer, would be. His future work might not be easy.
Hearing this, Chang Shengjun knew that Chen Xing was worried about whether Huang Jincheng would cooperate with him like Zhang Wanzheng had done before. After all, some of the things they were doing now required the strong cooperation of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. If the newcomer Huang Jincheng didn't support them, it would really be a headache.
"The provincial government must have considered the actual situation in Mountain Gaze when they transferred Huang Jincheng. I don't think the situation that Secretary Chen is worried about will happen." Chang Shengjun thought for a moment and could only say so.
"I hope so." Chen Xing shook his head. He knew from Ge Jian-ming that Huang Jincheng was recommended by Song Weishan. As for whether Huang Jincheng had considered the actual situation in Mountain Gaze, who knew?
Pouring himself another glass of wine, Chen Xing pondered for a moment and turned to look at Chang Shengjun. "Shengjun, now that Ms. Xiang's notebooks are lost, we can only investigate according to what she said. The Commission for Discipline Inspection can only continue to work after Huang Jincheng takes office, so we don't count on them for now. We'd better arrange someone from your side to secretly investigate the information provided by Ms. Xiang."
"I understand." Chang Shengjun nodded. He knew that Chen Xing was still worried about the arrival of Huang Jincheng.
"By the way, haven't you found anything in Chang Xing?" Chen Xing suddenly asked.
"No, those people are like stones sinking into the sea, without even a trace. Moreover, it was at night, and we didn't expect that they came for the notebooks. Alas, we can't remember the details of their characteristics, which makes the investigation more difficult." Chang Shengjun said angrily. The most important thing was that the place of the incident must have been carefully selected by them. It was in the section of the village road, and there was no surveillance.
It seemed that it would be difficult to investigate. Chen Xing frowned. The hope of finding the notebooks was getting slimmer and slimmer.
"I don't know who leaked the news on our side." Chang Shengjun curled his lips. He had been brooding about this matter. When he was free, he would think about it. Even on the day of the Spring Festival at home, he still thought about it from time to time. He firmly believed that someone must have leaked the news. Otherwise, it was impossible for the other party to arrange the time so accurately. But the problem was, who leaked the news?
This was the crux of the problem. On that day, apart from Xiang Xiurong himself, he, Chen Xing, and Chen Xing's secretary, Huang Jianghua, knew about it. Among the three, who could have leaked the news? No matter how he thought about it, it was impossible. Naturally, Chen Xing would not be the slightest suspect, and neither would he. As for Huang Jianghua, he came here from Nanzhou with Chen Xing, so it was impossible for him to leak the news. So what was the problem?
Chang Shengjun had a headache. Recently, he had been thinking about this matter a lot. In the end, he had a headache and couldn't think about it at all. However, he was a person who liked to be serious.
"Let's not care about the news for now. Only a few of us knew that you were going to Chang Xing that day. It is unlikely that the news was leaked. It is also possible that the other party has been monitoring us, so they know our every move." Chen Xing said with a smile.
"Even if the other party has sent people to monitor us, they will at most follow behind us. It is impossible for them to know why we went to Chang Xing. Moreover, when Xiang Xiurong and I went to the house to get the notebook, I asked Zhou Huai to guard outside. The other party definitely has no idea why we went to Chang Xing with Xiang Xiurong. However, the purpose of their action was very clear, as if they knew that Xiang Xiurong had the notebook in advance. This is the most unexplainable point. That is why I have always believed that someone leaked the news." Chang Shengjun said with a wry smile. Then, he glanced at Chen Xing and didn't forget to add, "Of course, I absolutely have no intention of suspecting you, Secretary Chen.
Even if you suspect me, it doesn't matter. As policemen, you should have this kind of spirit. " Chen Xing smiled. Although he didn't necessarily agree with Chang Shengjun's speculation, he still appreciated Chang Shengjun's spirit.
The two drank and chatted. For the future work, Chang Shengjun was not optimistic at all. Chen Xing was also a little depressed. The two men were drinking in a roadside restaurant during the Spring Festival. One was the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and the other was the Secretary of the Party Group of the Municipal Bureau. If this situation was known by others, many people would not be able to help but laugh. Of course, in Wangshan City, some people would be even more proud if they knew.
In the city, the pedestrian street was the busiest street in Wangshan City and also the commercial center of Wangshan City. Huang Jianghua and Lin Siyu were shopping. Out of the mentality of avoiding suspicion, they didn't hold hands. When they walked side by side, they deliberately kept a little distance. This was also because they were afraid of meeting people they knew. After all, there were a lot of people here, so they had to be careful.
When they walked to the middle of the pedestrian street and saw a real estate sales department on the side, Huang Jianghua suddenly stopped and took a closer look. This was a hardcover soho building.
"Siyu, let's go in and have a look." Huang Jianghua said with a smile.
"We're not buying a house. What's there to see inside?" Lin Siyu curled up her mouth, which made her look cute.
"Who said I'm not buying? Have you forgotten what I said before? I want to buy a house for you. "
"Brother Huang, there's no need. I think it's good to live in the rented house.
"What's good about it? It's next to the smelly ditch, and the condition of the room is very simple. It's not good at all. Besides, I have to do what I said. Do you think I'm a person who goes back on my word?" Chen Jianghua said with a smile.
"Of course not, but I didn't take what you said to heart at that time. I just thought you were joking, so I'll forget about buying a house." Lin Siyu shook her head. She was conflicted at the bottom of her heart. Moreover, she knew that if she really agreed, she might hurt Huang Jianghua. The complicated and contradictory psychology in her heart made her have to do as Qian Xinlai asked. On the other hand, she didn't want to hurt Huang Jianghua in the end.
"Let's go in and have a look. It's not like we can buy a house when we go in. Anyway, we're shopping now. Chen Jianghua said with a smile.
