Xiao Qingshan originally thought that Lu Tao would refuse him, but he didn't expect that Lu Tao would agree to intercede for him. He couldn't help but be overjoyed. He kept thanking him while taking out a bank card that he had prepared earlier from his pocket. He handed it to Lu Tao and said in a low voice, "Xiao Lu, go and find the leader for me. There will definitely be expenses. This is a new card I made. There are 100,000 yuan in it, and the password is 123aaa. Please withdraw the money as the fee for helping me. After the matter is done, I will express my gratitude in another way. I hope you won't refuse! "
Lu Tao saw that he was still thinking about using money to "solve the problem" at this time. He felt disgusted as if he had swallowed a fly. He reached out and pushed back his hand that was holding the card. He said coldly, "Director Xiao, your matter is already very sensitive. If you give money and things to the leader, it will be even more outrageous. To be honest, if Secretary Xie thinks that there is room for accommodation, as long as I tell him, he will help you without spending a penny. On the other hand, if he thinks that your matter is very serious and must be investigated before he can explain to the informant, then it will be useless even if you give him a million yuan. He won't have the guts to take the money! So please take back this card. I still say that I will try my best to help you, but I may not be able to help. I hope you understand! "
Xiao Qingshan saw that Lu Tao's attitude was firm and that what he said seemed to be very reasonable. He didn't dare to force him. He took back the card and put it in his pocket. He thanked Lu Tao again and left his office.
Lu Tao watched his back disappear at the door. He sneered and had a plan in his mind. He would call Xie Benzhu, who was having a meeting in the provincial capital, and ask him to urge the discipline inspection and supervision department to immediately file a case for investigation on Xiao Qingshan and severely punish this audacious, lawless, greedy and shameless rotten.
Loser …
Around 5: 30 in the afternoon, Lu Tao packed up the materials and was about to get off work. However, he received a call from Wang Zhichang, the head of the department, asking him to go to the director's office.
After Lu Tao sat down on the chair opposite the desk, Wang Zhichang suddenly asked, "Xiao Qingshan was reported to the county discipline inspection committee. Do you know?"
Lu Tao was shocked. He looked up at Wang Zhichang and asked with a little surprise, "Director Wang, how did you know? Did Director Xiao tell you this himself? "
Wang Zhichang nodded solemnly. "Last night, he came to my house to look for me and told me that the owner of Qingyun Hotel had reported him to the Commission for Discipline Inspection. He admitted that he had indeed received 20,000 yuan as a gift and four cartons of high-end cigarettes from the other party, which had reduced the hotel's tax by 700,000 to 800,000 yuan. The purpose of him looking for me is that he wants me to communicate with the Commission for Discipline Inspection in the name of the Local Taxation Bureau. It would be best if this case was handed over to the Local Taxation Bureau, and the Commission for Discipline Inspection should not file a case for investigation. "
Lu Tao asked, "Director Wang, how did you answer him?"
"Because it happened so suddenly, I was very shocked and didn't know how to answer him. After he left, I called Chief Yuan of the Municipal Bureau and reported the situation to him. After considering for a long time, Bureau Chief Yuan gave two instructions. First, order Xiao Qingshan to immediately return the stolen money and goods, and apologize to the party concerned and ask for the other party's understanding. Second, the county bureau's Party group should immediately communicate with the county's disciplinary committee and try to get the county's disciplinary committee to transfer the case to the local tax bureau. "
At this point, he paused and suddenly asked, "Did Xiao Qingshan look for you just now? He wanted you to help him talk to Secretary Xie of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, right? "
Lu Tao nodded, "That's right, he did look for me. He wanted me to talk to Secretary Xie of the Commission for Discipline Inspection and see if he could not be investigated."
"How did you respond to him?"
Lu Tao hesitated for a moment and replied, "I promised to talk to Secretary Xie, but I didn't promise to help him. I think that it's very clear that he violated the rules and regulations in the report, and the informant also provided sufficient evidence. Moreover, because the informant made the report with his real name, the county's disciplinary committee must give the informant a result and an answer. So even if I went to talk to Secretary Xie, he might not agree to help. "
Wang Zhichang nodded, "Your analysis is very reasonable. According to the nature of Xiao Qingshan's violation of the law, he should be punished by the law. But right now, I'm mainly thinking about the impact of this case on our Taolin County's Local Taxation Bureau and the entire Songshan City's Local Taxation Bureau. You've worked in the Inspection Bureau for many years, so you should know very well that if Xiao Qingshan is investigated by the Commission for Discipline Inspection, it will definitely implicate other people's violations of the law. Let's not talk about other things, just the Inspection Bureau alone will probably have a few people involved. There might even be some members of the bureau's Party that will be dragged into this case. This way, once the Commission for Discipline Inspection starts an investigation, it's very likely that there will be a 'nest case' in our bureau. Some of the officials who are close to Xiao Qingshan and have received gifts from him will also be investigated and dealt with.
"The consequences of this are very serious. First of all, once a nest case like this occurs, a lot of online media and social media will spread it everywhere. Our Taolin County, and even the entire Songshan City's Local Taxation Bureau's image will be severely damaged, and we might even become infamous. Second of all, if such a big case occurs in the bureau, all of our honors, including the Provincial Civilized Unit, this year's leadership evaluation, the County Red Banner Unit evaluation, the Best Unit in Performance Evaluation, and so on, will all be canceled. All of our employees' bonuses will also be affected. So, if Xiao Qingshan's case can be handed over to the Local Taxation Bureau, that would be the best. "
Speaking up to here, he looked up at Lu Tao and asked, "Little Lu, if I or Bureau Chief Yuan of the Municipal Bureau asked you to be Xiao Qingshan's lobbyist and plead with Secretary Xie of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, would you agree? What are the chances of success? "
Hearing his question, Lu Tao's heart was as clear as day. Xiao Qingshan probably thought that the chances of him helping him were low, so to be safe, he asked Wang Zhichang, who was close to him, to persuade him to plead with Secretary Xie …
But now that Wang Zhichang had put it this way, he couldn't not give a clear answer. So, he could only reluctantly say, "Bureau Chief Wang, I'll do my best, but I don't dare to make any guarantees. How about this, I'll call Secretary Xie tonight and see what he has to say. "
At eight o 'clock sharp, Lu Tao called Xie Benzhu's phone number. After knowing that he was alone in his hotel room, he relayed Wang Zhichang's words to him and asked if he had any opinions.
