After frowning and thinking hard for a while, Lu Tao suddenly remembered the meaningful words that Huang Zeke had just said to him. His heart couldn't help but move. He immediately took out his mobile phone and called Huang Zeke, asking if he was free this evening. Could we have dinner together?
Huang Zeke laughed and asked: "Little Lu, do you really have some difficult questions you want to ask me?"
"Yes, I do have some questions I want to ask you."
"Okay, you can book a place, but I suggest we don't eat in town to avoid gossip."
Lu Tao knew that he didn't want Li Weijun or other people in the town government to know that he was close to him. He thought for a moment and said: "How about tomorrow we go to the 'Old Farmer's Restaurant' in the eastern suburbs to eat? It's more remote and close to Dalong Town. After eating, I can go back to the village to work."
"Okay, that place is fine. You can take the minibus and book a private room at around five in the afternoon. I'll drive over after work. "
Around 6: 30, Lu Tao and Huang Zeke sat opposite each other in a secluded private room at the 'Old Farmer's Restaurant'. They were sipping bayberry wine while talking about Li Weijun.
After listening to Huang Zeke's brief introduction of the conflict between him and Li Weijun, Lu Tao straightforwardly said: "Mayor Huang, I'm a straightforward person, so I won't beat around the bush. I want to ask: If you want to catch Li Weijun's weakness and destroy him, where do you start? You've been working with him for more than two years and have also been stepped on by him for more than two years. Your hatred for him should be no less than mine. You must have thought about how to deal with him, right? "
Huang Zeke faintly smiled and gave a thumbs up: "Little Lu, I admire your courage and straightforwardness! That's right, I have a lot of conflicts with Li Weijun, and the gap between us is very deep. In the past two years, I've been suppressed by him, but there's nothing I can do. Don't blame me for being timid. With my current relationship and background, even if I firmly grasp Li Weijun's weakness, I can't do anything to him. Why? Because he and the County Party Secretary Luo Qiulin are in-laws, and he is also Luo Qiulin's most trusted confidant and interest partner. I believe you are also very clear about this.
"If I were to report Li Weijun, even if I were to report it to the Municipal Party Committee or the Provincial Party Committee, it would still be transferred back to the Party Committee. However, Luo Qiulin was now in charge of the county committee. Furthermore, Luo Qiulin's words carried enormous weight. If he said that he wanted to protect Li Weijun, no one in the county could touch him. On the contrary, as an informant, I will be mercilessly retaliated against. I might even be f * cking killed. You understand my difficulties now, right? "
Lu Tao nodded, indicating that he understood his difficulties.
A gratified expression appeared on Huang Zeke's face. He raised his glass to toast Lu Tao and continued, "You must be wondering why I would talk to you about Li Weijun since I can't do anything to him. In fact, the reason was simple. You have a big backer now, which is Secretary Zhou of the Municipal Party Committee. You also have a few small backers, such as Fu Lei, the head of the County Party Committee, and Xie Benzhu, the secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Judging from what you told me last time, Secretary Zhou must have a lot of trust in you. He will definitely take care of you and guide you. Moreover, you are a cadre of the Local Taxation Bureau, which is a vertical management unit. Even if you offend Li Weijun, Luo Qiulin, and the others, they can't directly deal with you. Therefore, if you were to fight with Li Weijun directly, it would be relatively less dangerous, and the chances of success would be much higher. "
Lu Tao knew that Huang Zeke's long-winded speech was to convince him to stand up bravely and fight with Li Weijun to the death, while Huang Zeke hid behind to give advice. If he succeeded, he could sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labor. If he failed, he wouldn't have to bear the risk of being retaliated against by Luo Qiulin, Li Weijun, and the others.
However, even though he saw through Huang Zeke's trick of "killing with a borrowed knife," because he really wanted to get clues about Li Weijun's violations of the law, he didn't expose him. Instead, he urged him to say, "Mayor Huang, just tell me how to catch Li Weijun's weaknesses! You just have to tell me some valuable clues, and I will take care of the rest. You don't have to show up. "
Huang Zeke held the wine glass and pondered for a while, then suddenly asked, "Little Lu, what do you think is Li Weijun's biggest weakness?"
Lu Tao raised his head and thought for a while, then said, "His biggest weakness is that his lifestyle is rotten, and he is arrogant and domineering. Many people dislike him. Am I right?"
Huang Zeke shook his head and said, "These are all superficial phenomena, and they are also common problems of many town leaders. They can't be considered his biggest weakness. Moreover, you said that his lifestyle is rotten, but can you find evidence of him? Other than the last time he was caught playing cards in O 'Neal, where else can you say he is rotten? Moreover, that gambling incident was settled by him. If you want to catch him again, it will be harder than ascending to heaven! "
Lu Tao was a little confused and asked, "Then what do you think is his biggest weakness?"
Huang Zeke smiled slightly and said, "His biggest weakness is his wife, the second golden flower of Liu Hong's family, Liu Shuangyan, who is currently the director of the county land development department."
Lu Tao asked in surprise, "How did Liu Shuangyan become his biggest weakness? Did she embezzle a lot of money during the land development process and implicate Li Weijun? "
Huang Zeke shook his head again and said, "No. If you want to understand why his wife is his biggest weakness, listen to my story first! "
Then, he told a strange story of "Li Weijun became a father".
Twelve or thirteen years ago, Li Weijun was still a small staff member in the office of the Taolin county committee. Because his family was very poor, he had no connections in the government, and he looked wretched and ugly, so he didn't find a partner when he was thirty-one or thirty-two years old. At that time, his current wife, Liu Shuangyan, was a typist in the county committee's office. She was very beautiful and very young, only in her early twenties.
At that time, many people said that when Liu Shuangyan was eighteen years old, she became the lover of the county committee's main leader. This relationship had been maintained for two or three years. Because Li Weijun was in charge of writing materials in the general department, he had more contact with Liu Shuangyan. He also drooled over her beauty, but because he knew that she was the daughter of Liu Hong, and there were rumors that she was the lover of the "big boss", he didn't dare to look at her. He had never imagined that she would become his wife one day.
But one day, something that he didn't even dare to dream of actually happened. It was like a pie falling from the sky, and it almost made him dizzy.
