A minute later, Chen Shaoping's cell phone rang.
"County Magistrate Chen, there's a fire at Magistrate Ling's house!"
Li Chunqiao, director of the government office, gasped on the phone.
Even though I was mentally prepared, I was still surprised when I heard the news.
"County Magistrate Ling, are you okay?" Chen Shaoping asked hurriedly.
It's not that he really cares about Ling Shenghua's safety, but that Ling Shenghua is the most important role in the mining area.
He controls the mining power in Rongjiang County, but he is only the representative of the mining power in Rongjiang.
It is almost certain that Mayor Zhao Mengzhou, Executive Vice Mayor Shen Zhongsong, Secretary General of the Municipal Government Office Feng Xiangyong, Deputy Director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau Xu Dingbang and others are the superstructure of the mining area's power and are the source of the chaos in Rongjiang County.
If Ling Shenghua dies, this line will be broken, and the real bad guy will be at large!
Thinking of Mayor Zhao Mengzhou, Secretary-General of the Municipal Government Feng Xiangyong, and others who were arrogant and domineering, and treated the common people, but pretended to be righteous and a symbol of authority, Chen Shaoping gritted his teeth with anger.
"The specific situation is unclear at the moment, but judging from the situation at the scene, no one came out..."
Li Chunqiao took a deep breath, and there was a mess of noise on the phone.
"Keep an eye on the situation at the scene to ensure the fire does not spread!"
Chen Shaoping hung up the phone and had no intention of visiting the scene in person.
Just after hanging up the phone on Li Chunqiao, Luo Wenqiang called again: "County Magistrate Chen, is there a fire at Ling Shenghua's house?"
"I just got the news!" Chen Shaoping looked ashen and asked Luo Wenqiang in a calm voice: "Has the news about Li Qiuping and others been arrested leaked?"
"Absolutely not! The people we use are all from our own family, and we come directly from the Renli Town Police Station!"
Luo Wenqiang replied.
"Ling Shenghua is not the big fish! The one who killed Ling Shenghua is!" Chen Shaoping said in a calm voice.
After talking to Luo Wenqiang on the phone, it was already five o'clock in the morning, the darkest time in Rongjiang County.
On the right side of Building H of Rongjiang County Party Committee and County Government, on the third floor of the government office building, only a solitary light is on.
It is already late autumn in Rongjiang County. The autumn wind is bleak and it is getting colder and cooler day by day.
The next day, the entire Rongjiang County exploded.
Executive Deputy County Magistrate Ling Shenghua was burned to death at home. It is currently unclear whether it was suicide or an accident;
Three officials including Xue Jianchun, deputy magistrate of Rongjiang County, Li Qiuping, director of the Land and Resources Bureau, and Sun Siqi, the criminal police captain of the County Public Security Bureau, were arrested;
Liu Hongxing, the owner of the second largest mining company in Heihe Town, was arrested and imprisoned.
In an instant, the officialdom of Rongjiang County was in great turmoil.
Immediately during the interrogation, Deputy County Magistrate Xue Jianchun and Director of the Bureau of Land and Resources Li Qiuping confessed a series of facts about the corruption of government cadres, including Ling Shenghua, Executive Deputy Magistrate of Rongjiang County, and Hu Zhonghua, Secretary of the County Commission for Discipline Inspection. As many as 17 cadres were involved in the case. , interspersed in almost all major institutions.
Report the case to the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government
Yang Zhengkang, Secretary of the Jiangli Municipal Party Committee, Zheng Qiyun, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Tang Zhenglin, Director of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, Shen Dequan, Secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, Yang Chengxie, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, and Hua Jiaying, the newly appointed director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, all came to Rongjiang County.
Municipal Party Committee Secretary Yang Zhengkang personally presided over a meeting with all county cadres in Rongjiang County, and seriously reported the large-scale corruption cases in Rongjiang County. At the same time, the municipal Party committee and the government determined that Ling Shenghua, the executive deputy head of Rongjiang County, had committed suicide out of fear of crime!
Rongjiang County has carried out activities to improve Party conduct and discipline from top to bottom.
"County Magistrate Chen, you have done a great job. You have not long been in Rongjiang County and you have achieved outstanding results!"
After the meeting, in the presence of senior officials from the Rongjiang County Party Committee and County Government, Yang Zhengkang, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, praised Chen Shaoping without hesitation. As for the county party secretary He Jinbo, he only made a nonchalant request that "the road ahead is long and arduous."
Comparing the two, judging by intimacy and distance, made He Jinbo, secretary of the county party committee, feel very uncomfortable.
Although he recognized Chen Shaoping's excellence in his heart, after all, he was the county party committee secretary, and Chen Shaoping was the county magistrate.
Even though He Jinbo has always liked to be a good gentleman, he felt a little disturbed at this time.
"The big corrupt person is the second-in-command in the government office. Chen Shaoping is also responsible for this as the county magistrate!"
He Jinbo muttered in his heart.
After the meeting, lunch was arranged at the Jiangpan Hotel.
Zhang Hongming, secretary of Municipal Party Committee Secretary Yang Zhengkang, found a separate opportunity to speak to Chen Shaoping: "County Chief Chen, in less than half a year, he wiped out all the mining power in Rongjiang! It's amazing!"
"Director Zhang, it all depends on the strong support of the Municipal Party Committee Office for our Rongjiang County!" Chen Shaoping said with a smile.
"County Magistrate Chen, if there is a suitable opportunity in Rongjiang County, consider me, brother..." Zhang Hongming said seemingly casually.
Chen Shaoping couldn't help but feel shocked. This was the second time Zhang Hongming came to Chen Shaoping to talk about his job.
"Director Zhang, it would be great if you come to Rongjiang County, but the situation in Rongjiang County is complicated and ever-changing. I wonder if Secretary Yang has other considerations?"
Chen Shaoping did not agree to Zhang Hongming immediately, which made Zhang Hongming a little unhappy.
"County Magistrate Chen, you are the most vocal in the selection of Executive Deputy County Magistrate!" Zhang Hongming simply spoke more straightforwardly.
The executive deputy county magistrate is the second-in-command in the county government office building and the most powerful assistant around the county magistrate.
Chen Shaoping planned to choose a mature, steady, honest and reliable veteran cadre to act as a vanguard and take the lead in rectifying the state-owned mining industry.
There was no suitable candidate in Rongjiang County, so Chen Shaoping came up with the idea of Cangyang County.
Li Songbo was the deputy county magistrate and secretary of the Political and Legal Committee in Cangyang County. If he came to Rongjiang County to serve as the executive deputy county magistrate, it would be a step forward.
However, Chen Shaoping brought Luo Wenqiang, a top leader in the political and legal system from Cangyang County!
If we bring another executive deputy county magistrate from Cangyang, I'm afraid the impact in Rongjiang County will not be good.
At that time, people will say that the county is Rongjiang County, but the government is the Cangyang government, which will cause unreasonable resistance to the county government headed by Chen Shaoping.
"Director Zhang, if Secretary Yang consults me about the candidate for the executive deputy county magistrate of Rongjiang County, I will definitely recommend you!"
Chen Shaoping answered affirmatively this time.
After hearing this, Zhang Hongming immediately showed an excited smile on his face. He whispered to Chen Shaoping: "County Magistrate Chen, you are now the most popular person in front of Secretary Yang. As long as you propose it, Secretary Yang will probably not refuse!"
Chen Shaoping smiled and nodded.
Chen Shaoping would recommend Zhang Hongming in front of Yang Zhengkang, but he would not recommend Zhang Hongming alone.
After lunch, Yang Zhengkang took a nap in the county party committee's small guest house. Zheng Qiyun took advantage of this time to climb into Liu Yuhui's bed.
At this time, the template for the collection of essays that Liu Yuhui was preparing to publish at the Municipal Federation of Literary and Art Circles had come out. Zheng Qiyun took a copy over and let Liu Yuhui see what her future works would look like in advance.
After two close contacts, Liu Yuhui has completely entered the role of "Zheng Qiyun's mistress", allowing Zheng Qiyun to work hard on her...
