Two police cars were driving at high speed on the highway to Qingyang City. Li Rui and Liu Shaoxiong, the Director of the Letter and Visit Bureau, sat in the back of the Santana while Gao Jianxin sat in the front passenger seat.
Suddenly, Li Rui didn't even look at Liu Shaoxiong and asked, "Director Liu, say something."
Liu Shaoxiong didn't understand and turned to look at him. He adjusted the gold-rimmed glasses on his face and asked, "County Magistrate Li, you … Let me say something. What do you want me to say?"
Li Rui said coldly, "What do you want me to say? Shuanghe County's reputation has been lost in the city. Don't you, the Director of the Letter and Visit Bureau, have anything to say? "
Liu Shaoxiong was immediately embarrassed. He wanted to say something but stopped. His constipated look was disgusting to look at.
Li Rui turned his face away impatiently and ignored him.
This was very effective. Liu Shaoxiong immediately said bitterly, "County Magistrate Li, we are responsible for this, but … we couldn't do anything about it! Who would have thought that they would make such a big fuss and even spread to the city … "
Li Rui said angrily, "Don't beat around the bush. If you want to say something, say it clearly from the beginning. If you can't say it clearly, don't say it."
Liu Shaoxiong said, "Oh, it's like this. The real estate developer in the county, Hu Zhixin, requisitioned the farmland of the villagers in Dalifang Village in the west of the city. He used the land as a substitute for the land to develop a residential area. At that time, he gave the farmers a compensation of 1,500 yuan per mu of land. However, because of the lack of funds, he didn't give them enough. Of course, the farmers didn't agree and repeatedly complained to the county. They also came to our Letter and Visit Bureau, but they were all suppressed by County Magistrate Chen. Some of the villagers who clamored to go to the city to complain were sent to the county's mental hospital. "
Li Ruixin was shocked. Why was it Hu Zhixin again? Why were all the vicious incidents in the county related to him? Was this person Shuanghe County's version of "Han Shui"? Also, Chen Kui looked like an honest and honest person. How could he do something like sending a prostitute to a mental hospital? Who gave him the guts? He was going too far. She asked, "And then?"
Liu Shaoxiong plucked up his courage and said, "Then … then those villagers were indignant, so they really banded together and ran to the city to complain. In the end, they were caught by County Head Chen's men midway. Some were locked up in the detention center, some were locked up in a mental hospital, and some were locked up at home. They were guarded by village leaders for a long time and were not allowed to leave the village."
Li Rui could not believe what he heard. Chen Kui's way of doing things was too overbearing. Was he really a grassroots leader cultivated by the Party? Our Party's cadres have always kept in mind the purpose of serving the people, and have always maintained the fine tradition of 'coming from the masses, going to the masses'. Chen Kui, on the other hand, treated the people as his class enemy, which was really abominable. "When did this happen?" he asked.
Liu Shaoxiong said, "It happened in the first half of last year. In the second half of last year, no one made any trouble. Who knew that at the beginning of this year, the trouble would directly go to the city. Maybe it's the weekend today, and those village leaders who were guarding the village went home to rest. They only had a chance to run out because the village was less guarded. Alas, this … to be honest, our Letter Bureau is responsible, but we can't do anything about it. County Magistrate Li, who dares to not listen to a call from County Head Chen? You have to understand us. "
Li Rui waved his hand impatiently and said, "Forget it. Now is not the time to find out who is responsible. You should think about how to persuade those villagers to go back with us obediently." Then he said to Gao Jianxin, "Political Commissar Gao, I don't know how Chen Kui asked you to arrest people before, but this time, all of you have to listen to my command. If I don't give the order, all of you will stay in the car and wait."
Gao Jianxin immediately said, "County Magistrate Li, this time you are leading the team, so you are the commander-in-chief. Of course, we have to listen to you. If you have anything to say, just say it. We will definitely follow your orders. "
Li Rui nodded. He thought that this political commissar was docile and kind, unlike Bureau Chief Meng Shuhai, who was sly and cunning. He said softly, "I only have one request. Unless it is absolutely necessary, do not arrest people. When we arrive at the gate of the city government compound, let the police officers rest in the car. You will come with me. "
It was easy to understand why Li Rui specifically told Gao Jianxin this. He was afraid that the police would cause the villagers to panic. If they resisted and made a scene in the city government compound, the impact would be worse and far-reaching.
Gao Jianxin nodded and said, "I understand. Don't worry, County Magistrate Li. We will cooperate with you to persuade those villagers to go home. We will not aggravate the situation."
Li Rui said, "That's good. You guys sit down first. I will make a phone call." After that, he took out his phone and called Fang Qingyun.
He was not sure if Fang Qingyun knew about this, but he felt that it was necessary to report to him. After all, Brother Fang was the secretary of the county party committee. Such a vicious thing happened in the county. He had to be informed as soon as possible so that he would know what to do.
Soon, Fang Qingyun's hearty laughter came from the other side of the phone. "Xiao Rui, I heard that you didn't go back to the city over the weekend. Are you working overtime at the government office?"
Li Rui nodded secretly. This person was indeed the secretary of the county party committee. He had eyes and ears in the county. He even knew about his appearance in the government. He said in a low voice, "Secretary, I have to report to you that the farmers who lost their land in our county went to the city government to complain. I am now under the order of County Magistrate Bu to pick them up."
Fang Qingyun was shocked and cried out involuntarily. Obviously, he didn't know about this matter. He cried out, "When did this happen?"
Li Rui said, "Just now. You didn't know?"
Fang Qingyun said in a puzzled tone, "I didn't hear about it. No one told me. How did you know?"
Li Rui said, "County Magistrate Bu told me …" After that, he thought to himself that Bo Yubing, a female cadre from Jingnan, had connections in Qingyang City. This woman's background was really not small.
Fang Qingyun asked curiously, "How did she know? Did the Municipal Government call the county government office to inform them? "
Li Rui said, "I don't know yet. But this is not important. The important thing is that this matter must be handled properly. I can't just pick them up to solve the root problem." After that, he told him what he had learned from Liu Shaoxiong.
Fang Qingyun felt a headache coming on when he heard this. He didn't know how to solve it in a hurry, so he asked, "Xiao Rui, you've always been smart. Can you teach me how to solve this matter?"
Li Rui thought for a while and said, "It's not difficult to solve this problem. I suggest that we release the villagers who were locked up in the detention center and mental hospital. Then, the county government and the county government form a joint investigation team. They will investigate the inside story while ordering Hu Zhixin to settle the compensation for the villagers who were occupied by Dayingfang Village as soon as possible. If your family works carefully, I will be more confident in picking them up from the city. "
Fang Qingyun was silent for a while. He said, "Okay, I will deal with this immediately." Then he said in a low voice, "That Bo Yubing is really resourceful. Such a big thing happened and I, as the secretary of the county government, was kept in the dark. She, as the acting county magistrate, actually found out about it first and made the first move …"
Li Rui could not say anything else in front of Liu Shaoxiong and Gao Jianxin. He only said, "You better discuss this with her. Don't let her off the hook."
Fang Qingyun said, "I understand. I will go to the government and discuss it with her. I will leave the matter of picking them up to you. I believe you can definitely bring all the villagers back. "
After hanging up the phone, Li Rui breathed a sigh of relief. As the saying goes, "It is never too late to mend the pen after the sheep are lost." If the county government dealt with the aftermath, he would have something to rely on to persuade the villagers to return to the county. Then, he would be more persuasive. In addition, if the city government represented by Mayor Yu Heping wanted to hold the county accountable, then he had to solve the problem as soon as possible. He could also show the county's efforts in this matter to the public. Then, Yu Heping would not punish him too severely.
It would take about an hour to drive from Shuanghe County to Qingyang City on the highway. This time, the police car was even faster. Therefore, it took about forty minutes for Li Rui and the others to arrive at the city. After taking a detour, they finally arrived at the entrance of the city government's courtyard after ten minutes.
Of course, the solemn entrance of the city government's courtyard could not be casually parked. After Li Rui, Gao Jianxin, and Liu Shaoxiong got out of the car, they asked the driver to park the car. The three of them first went to the courtyard to find and pacify the villagers.
When they arrived at the entrance of the security office where the villagers were temporarily placed, Li Rui suddenly received a call. He stayed outside and asked Liu Shaoxiong and Gao Jianxin to go in and talk to the city government's official in charge.
"Yu Nan was injured by the explosion. He lost a lot of blood and is being sent to the county hospital!"
The person who brought this explosive news was Sun Bo and Li Rui's good friend on the train to Beijing three years ago. The two of them became good friends because they had similar interests. Later, Li Rui called Sun Bo to Qingyang City to develop and secretly sent him to Yu Nan's company to spy on Yu Nan's privacy. He had been undercover for more than three years.
Yu Nan was Zhang Yimiao's husband. After he divorced her, he coincidentally got in touch with Han Shui. After the two of them met, they conspired to monopolize all the gold mining enterprises in Qingyang Mountain. In the end, just as their business started, Han Shui was defeated. Yu Nan lost the support of Han Shui, a local tycoon in Qingyang City, but he did not give up. Soon, he found another rich person to be his sponsor and continued to monopolize the gold mining industry.
