Chapter 1 The end of Qingping
Chapter 1207 The wind rises and the end of the green duckweed
Xiao Tian and Meng Xiangshuai knew Zhou Dongfei's fame and never regarded Zhou Dongfei as an ordinary minister or a military leader. But I have to say that the two still underestimated Zhou Dongfei's real energy.
The deputy minister of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee did not explain, but was actually worried that once these two people knew about Zhou Dongfei's terrifying strength, they would not dare to carry out specific work. It was even possible that these two people would succumb to Zhou Dongfei's pressure everywhere. In the end, it might even trigger an unfavorable situation for Xiao and Meng to follow Zhou Dongfei's fate.
Therefore, the two must keep their guard against Zhou Dongfei and maintain basic respect, but they must also continue to maintain the enthusiasm of a newborn calf not to be afraid of monsters. This is a very subtle thing and needs to be handled carefully. Therefore, the deputy minister first introduced the affirmation of Zhou Dongfei by his superiors, and at the same time said that if he is fine, don't provoke Zhou Dongfei on his own initiative; and then said that these deployments against Zhou Dongfei were not just about the affairs of their department, which revealed a deeper background.
The Organization Department of the Central Committee, its top leader is already the head of the upper core circle, and even this deputy minister is a minister-level official. If this matter is not even the meaning of the Organization Department of the Central Committee, then the water will be deeper. With such a deep background, I believe Xiao Tian and Meng Xiangshuai will also boost their confidence and will not be held back when facing Zhou Dongfei.
Then, the deputy minister said: "In short, in terms of Haiyang's governance, you insist on doing things according to your own ideas and the requirements of your superiors. Don't provoke anyone on your own initiative, but don't be influenced by anyone. Haiyang is the Haiyang of the country, Haiyang of the people, not the private property of someone. If you do things according to principles and procedures, no one can say anything."
Only when it comes to this point is a clear briefing.
Finally, the deputy minister also contacted Zhou Dongfei and said that if Zhou Dongfei had time, he could stay in Haiyang for a day. Because the two of them could not talk in detail, it was very regretful. Zhou Dongfei apologized tactfully on the phone, saying that he was in military affairs and had left Haiyang. This time he failed to do his best to be a landlord, and he really couldn't get over it. Next time the deputy minister came to Haiyang again, Zhou Dongfei must be a good host.
It’s all empty and vague, and anyone who has reached this level understands it. But in general, the deputy minister was still rejected by Zhou Dongfei.
After hanging up the phone, Meng Xiangshuai was a little emotional, perhaps to give the deputy minister a small step: "This person has a really big idea!"
The deputy minister waved his hand: "Maybe there is something urgent to do." After saying this vague statement, the deputy minister returned to the capital overnight without saying anything.
...
Things seem to keep moving towards a delicate balance, but many things are not transferred by human will. If you maintain them carefully, you will eventually make mistakes. This mistake comes from a very accidental small event. Of course, even if nothing happens this time, problems will sooner or later. Because behind all chances, there are often inevitable reasons.
The cause of the incident was that Zheng Tao, a big gangster in Haiyang City, was investigated by the police!
Zheng Tao, the original big gangster in Haiyang City, is also the first backbone of the underground forces of Xinyi Group. Although like Zhang Danian and others, they have not reached the level of a provincial-level big lord, they are still relatively faced as brothers one of the earlier ones. Under the banner of Xinyi, they have been going well in the past two years. This is like a municipality directly under the central government. Although the area under control is not large, after all, in the core of Haiyang, they are more handsome than ordinary city-level big gangsters when they go out.
Zheng Tao's business was initially limited to those in Xinyi and Huanxisha, but the money was limited after all. Later, he saw that his brother Zhang Danian and others made more money by lending loans, so he also embarked on this path. It is normal for lending loans in the underground world to be profitable, and it is not surprising that three cents of profit or five cents of profit. However, according to national regulations, the interest on private lending exceeds four times the statutory interest rate, so this interest is not protected.
Of course, the so-called unprotected is just not protecting its illegal interest, and the principal loan relationship is still recognized. For example, if the statutory loan interest rate is 6 (percent sign), then the state will recognize at most four times the interest rate in private, that is, 24 (percent sign). Even if the excess is sued, the state will not recognize it, but admit that you borrow money from the other party, and the borrowed money will still have to be repaid.
However, who ordinary people dares to rely on the interest of these big gangsters? Therefore, this has become a very common way for big gangsters to make money. This cannot be called illegal, it can only be said to be wandering on the edge of the law. The worst case is that you lose a lawsuit and don’t forget to pay the interest rate that is higher. This kind of business is not considered a bad thing, and Zhou Dongfei has never taken care of it.
However, under normal circumstances, there will be no debts, but there will be "general situations".
A private construction enterprise from other places undertakes part of Xinyi Real Estate project. Xinyi Real Estate is not too strict, basically guaranteeing a certain profit margin. Overall, it undertakes 100 million projects, which can earn five or six million. For a small company that is just starting out, it is very generous.
However, the boss of this company is a gambling owner. Seeing that the business went so smoothly, he lost control at the gambling table. Before one-third of the project was carried out, he threw millions on the gambling table in advance. Of course, he was also cheated by the local black gamblers. This has nothing to do with Xinyi, and it has nothing to do with Zheng Tao, he deserves it.
The advance advance funding of the project construction was severely advanced, and several million were withdrawn at first, causing the project undertaken by the company to be broken. This is how it is to do the project. The more you are short of money, the more you delay, the slower you will work and the more you will lose. Because the daily labor and machinery costs are fixed, even if you haven’t done any project in the past few days, many expenses will still be thrown out, which greatly increases the cost.
So, after a rough estimate, the profits of five or six million that this project could have been made were wasted after the mid-term. Moreover, the situation of financial tightness has not eased.
For this reason, this guy did not find a way to solve it, but instead cut corners in the project and bought low-quality steel building materials to try to get away with it. How could this be hidden from Xinyi Real Estate? Once it was found out after inspection, he was ordered to push down the project about 5 million that he had done recently and reworked!
This is a normal phenomenon. Who told you to commit fraud? If you ignore this phenomenon, there will be dangerous houses or shoddy projects in the future, or even houses collapse and people will die, Xinyi Real Estate will take the blame for you? Moreover, the country does not allow it.
However, the boss, who was already suffering, finally managed to spend 5 million yuan in abandoned projects in vain and finally couldn't hold on!
In desperation, he met Zheng Tao, a local big gangster, and asked Zheng Tao to lend him five million yuan for turnover. He agreed to have a monthly interest of four cents and a loan of half a year. The monthly interest rate is four cents. If the principal is five million, the monthly interest rate is 200,000 yuan, and the interest rate for half a year is 1.2 million yuan. In other words, he will repay Zheng Tao with 6.2 million yuan in half a year.
In the underground world, this interest rate is not black. Because some ruthless big guys can even receive an interest rate of eight cents, one cent!
Zheng Tao was even unwilling to lend money to this guy because it was the most unsafe to lend money to gamblers and drug users. The reason for borrowing it was because this guy was doing the project of Xinyi Group. If he saw this guy fall down, the project of Xinyi Group would also be affected, and the overall construction period might be delayed, and the delayed money would be the delayed.
Things have developed to this point and everything is reasonable.
But the boss of that private enterprise is just a bastard, a dog who can't change his shit. With the five million that Zheng Tao lent him, this guy went to the gambling table again! According to his opinion, he wanted to win back the money he lost last time, even if he won a part of it. But the traps he had set long ago, how could you win back? As a result, he couldn't make a fortune, and even the five million that Zheng Tao lent him almost lost completely!
Now it's really over! Not to mention the turnaround, even the project in Haiyang could not be completed. In desperation, Xinyi Real Estate admitted defeat, lost several million yuan and then took the project back.
But, what should I do with Zheng Tao’s money?
Zheng Tao asked the little boss for the account. The other party was so scared at first that he dealt with it tremblingly. But later, he found that he really couldn't repay it, so he just cheated and wanted to escape!
How could Zheng Tao bear his tone? After all, he is a veteran general under Sister Mei. Many big gangsters in the world even called him "Brother Tao". Even some big lords from other provinces gave him a slight slight slight. If you are cheated by you, a bastard, will Zheng Tao lose money or not? If those who borrow money will be dependent on the debt, will Zheng Tao still survive? And it is natural to pay back the debt. Why should you not repay the money you borrowed from me?
So, before this guy could escape, he was caught by Zheng Tao's subordinates. During the verbal conflict, Zheng Tao's subordinates slapped the guy twice. The thug was not considered a damn, but just a big tooth fell. But now he gave this scoundrel, and the guy immediately lay on the ground and pretended to be dead! He even turned around and reported the case to the Public Security Bureau of Haiyang City, where Zheng Tao was located, claiming that he had been threatened and extorted by the underworld!
I'll take a break, this guy is going to go against the will of heaven!
If it were the past, the Haiyang Municipal Public Security System would have turned a blind eye to this matter. Everyone knows Zheng Tao’s background, that is Fei Ge’s person, and Inspector Li (Qingfang) is an old leader who has gone out of the Haiyang Public Security System, so everyone is always in contact. People are too lazy to care about rogue gamblers like this.
But this time the situation changed, and the Haiyang Municipal Public Security Bureau really took care of it! Not only did it intervene in this matter, but it even arrested Zheng Tao for investigation, saying that it was Zheng Tao involved in gangsters! There were reasons for this, but in short, it caused a quarrel. As a result, this accidental small incident became increasingly serious.
Chapter completed!
