Li Rui was overjoyed. At present, the investigation of Li Qiangwei and Meng Sanjin had reached a stalemate. If these two people were not caught, the mine accident and the recent serial cases would not be solved. If he could find clues about Li Qiangwei from Liu Guozhi, it was very likely that he would be able to solve the case in time. He would also be able to reduce the pressure on the city's investigation team and his boss, Song Chaoyang. It could be considered a great contribution. There were so many benefits, so why not? Hearing Liu Guozhi's words, it seemed that he knew a lot about Li Qiangwei. After thinking about it, he asked the driver to stop the car and paid the fare. After getting out of the car, he walked to the roadside and said, "Brother Li, I won't lie in front of you. I'll tell you everything I know. Because the Central TV reporter's investigation of the Heiyaogou Coal Mine disaster had led to many criminal cases, including the illegal detention of the Central TV reporter, the pursuit of the deputy director of the Xi County Safety Bureau, Qin Daming, the murder of the Safety Bureau's resident supervisor, Chen Donghua, and the suicide of the director, Hai Fumin, who committed suicide by jumping off a building. With so many government officials killed one after another, it put a lot of pressure on the leaders of the municipal government. However, the investigation of Li Qiangwei and the coal mine's manager, Meng Sanjin, had not found any clues. If they could not catch these two people, then everything would be impossible to investigate, and the city leaders and investigation team would be in trouble. If you can provide clues about Li Qiangwei, it will reduce the pressure on the city leaders and make a contribution to Qingyang City. I think the city leaders will definitely not forget your contribution. "
Liu Guozhi was Li Ming's brother-in-law, and his brother-in-law was a powerful figure in the Southern District. Therefore, the two families had always been very close. He had witnessed Li Ming's promotion from the position of Executive Deputy District Mayor to the position of District Mayor in a short period of time after he met Li Rui. He had suppressed the Deputy Secretary of the District Committee and became the second most powerful person in the Southern District. He was surprised and envious at the same time. Only then did he personally and deeply understand the principle of "having connections in the court makes it easier to be an official."
Because of this, he also wanted to get closer to Li Rui, but he didn't have many opportunities. Last time, he managed to find an opportunity to ask his brother-in-law, Li Ming, to invite Li Rui to a meal and bring him along in the form of a family banquet. Only then did he become friends with Li Rui. However, at that time, they could only be considered acquaintances, and their friendship was not established. After that family banquet, he had been thinking about how to become good friends with Li Rui as soon as possible. He didn't want to become sworn brothers with him like his brother-in-law, but at the very least, he wanted to become close friends with him. Unfortunately, the Bureau of Safety that he was in had no relationship with Li Rui, so it was very difficult to establish a friendship with him through official circles. As for his private life, he knew that Li Rui served the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. He was both popular and busy. Usually, he was so busy that he couldn't describe it. Therefore, he didn't dare to contact him so as to not disturb his work and make him unhappy. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find a way to become friends with him, so he was very anxious.
However, he didn't expect that the opportunity that he had been looking for so long would come to him through this unintentional phone call. Moreover, if he grasped it well, not only could he become friends with Li Rui, but he could also leave a good impression with the city leaders … Didn't he hear what Li Rui said just now? If he could provide clues about Li Qiangwei, then the city leaders would remember his contribution.
This was a good opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. Only a fool would give it up.
F * ck, I'll do it!
He was very excited, but he suppressed the excitement in his heart and said, "It's hard to talk over the phone. Let's talk face to face." Li Rui was also very happy and said, "Okay, where do we meet?" Liu Guozhi thought for a bit and said, "Where are you? I'm driving the company car. I'll go pick you up." Li Rui said, "Okay, you come … Where is this? Let me see. Oh, this is Hongqi East Road. Go north to the first … second or third intersection." Liu Guozhi said, "Okay, I'll immediately rush over. Wait a moment."
Li Ming's house was in the southern district of the city. Li Rui was in the northern district of the city, so the distance wasn't too far. After a quarter of an hour, Liu Guozhi drove over and picked up Li Rui on the side of the road. They drove a bit further and found a secluded corner to park the car. Then, they began a private conversation.
In the darkness of the night, the private conversation between the two men began.
Liu Guozhi said, "I've seen this person Li Qiangwei many times. He's a famous coal boss in the province. His nickname is' Master Miner '. His family's assets are in the billions. Not only did he contract over ten coal mines in our Qingyang City, he also has coal mines in Shanxi and Inner Mongolia. However, he placed his main coal business in our Qingyang City. The Heiaogou Coal Mine is one of the largest coal mines that he contracted. However, in recent years, the output has been declining. This person also opened many profitable businesses in the provincial capital, such as logistics and hotels. There's a five star hotel in the provincial capital. I don't know if brother has heard of it before. It's called 'Jingnan Starlight International Business Hotel'. That's his business. "
Hearing him say this, Li Rui's image of a nouveau riche man appeared in front of him. First, he earned his first bucket of gold from opening a coal mine. Then, he ran to the provincial capital and invested in whatever was profitable in order to earn more wealth. This kind of person had nothing in his eyes other than money. As long as he could earn money, he would be willing to do anything. However, because his personal qualities weren't high, his vision was shallow, and he didn't have a strategic vision. Therefore, he generally wouldn't have much development. However, it was hard to say. There were miracles like this where the nouveau riche developed better and better. However, it was only a minority.
Li Rui said, "I've never heard of him. I rarely go to the provincial capital. It seems that this Li Qiangwei has a lot of businesses involved. Continue. " Liu Guozhi said, "I met him at a banquet where he invited the leaders of the Supervision and Administration Department to a meal. The first and deepest impression that this person gave me was that he was generous. I remember that the banquet cost more than ten thousand yuan. After the banquet, we even went to the sauna and he gave everyone a red packet. At that time, I was still the deputy leader of the Supervision and Administration Department 2. He gave me three thousand yuan. After that, when I was promoted to a leader, he gave me at least five thousand yuan each time. This was just the red packet after treating everyone to a meal. It didn't count as anything else. He gave it to my son once when he was admitted to high school. "
Li Rui asked, "How many years have you known him? How much have you received from him in total? " Liu Guozhi thought for a while and said, "I've known him for at least five years. We interacted a little more in the first few years. In the last two years, I heard that his coal business wasn't doing well, so we didn't interact much. With the money he received, roughly a hundred thousand yuan shouldn't be a problem. "Li Rui said," Have you spent all this money? "Liu Guozhi said," Some I spent, some I didn't. If it's necessary, I can take it all out and hand it over to the Commission for Discipline Inspection. " Li Rui nodded and said, "I will definitely report what you told me to my boss, but I won't tell anyone else. For your own good and for your future development, I advise you to hand this money over to the Commission for Discipline Inspection as soon as possible if your family doesn't lack money. If you lack money, tell me and I'll pay for it. "
Liu Guozhi was a smart person and said, "When I made up my mind to tell you these things, I already thought about it. Tomorrow, I'll go to the Commission for Discipline Inspection to hand over this money. Thank you for your advice." Li Rui said, "Continue." Liu Guozhi said, "Great Master Li Qiang is very generous. He often treats us to meals, travels, and vacations. He even sponsored a trip to Thailand for our colleagues. Usually, when we meet him, it's either at a big restaurant like Qingyang or at the provincial capital. The number of times he goes to the provincial capital is not many. One time, we went to his Starlight International Business Hotel. There, he treated us to a presidential suite and a ministerial suite. He also treated us to play with the high-class ladies in the hotel … "
When Li Rui heard this, he nodded with satisfaction. Liu Guozhi was even willing to talk about these things, so he wouldn't hide anything from him. It seemed like he wanted to rely on him wholeheartedly to improve himself. Of course, if he really did provide valuable information on this matter, he would be willing to put in a good word for him in front of his superiors. It would be considered returning the favor.
Liu Guozhi continued, "This person has another biggest characteristic. He loves to boast. Of course, he also has the capital to boast. He often said that he has relations with some of the central leaders in Beijing. He also said that some provincial officials once visited one of his large coal mines. He also said that he was itching to buy a few famous female celebrities. He also said that the next time we eat, he would bring them over for us to see, but he never did. Oh right, he also said that he is close friends with some of the provincial leaders … "Li Rui heard this and interrupted," This is very possible. "Liu Guozhi was surprised," Ah? " Li Rui said, "At present, we can deduce that Meng Sanjin forced Hai Fumin to death and killed Chen Donghua. His purpose was to cover for the higher-ranking leaders behind him. It might be a little difficult to say that he was covering for the provincial leaders, but it's very possible that he was covering for the provincial leaders or deputy provincial leaders. "
