Chapter 343 The Second Wave
Xia Xiangshi explained: "There has never been a distinction between politics and economy. Economic interests also involve political disputes. But now the deeper inside story is not convenient to say, and it is not good for everyone to say it. So I only have one sentence: our goals are the same and our interests are the same. So you should work hard on economic matters, and I will deal with political matters. Everyone works together to create a strong Jiangshan real estate."
Chen Lichun felt relieved and smiled embarrassedly: "I don't mean to doubt you, I just think there is a fraud."
"I don't believe that County Magistrate Xia would betray us. He is a great man. Without him, there would be no today as Zhu Hu. To be honest, even if County Magistrate Xia sold me, I would still bargain for him and count the money for him." Zhu Hu said carelessly.
Everyone laughed.
Everyone here has received the favors of Xia Xiang, and has benefited more or less from Xia Xiang's help to get to where they are today, so they trust Xia Xiang.
After explaining the matter, Xia Xiang returned to An County again.
As soon as he returned to the office, Mei Xiaolin came to him and said something that surprised him as soon as he met: "Secretary Gao is going to step down."
Xia Xiang did not hear the news of Gao Chengsong's fall from Song Chaodu's mouth, nor did he hear the news of Gao Chengsong's step down from Chen Feng's mouth, but suddenly heard Mei Xiaolin say that Gao Chengsong was going to step down as soon as she opened her mouth. She was shocked and asked, "Where did you hear the news?"
"Someone in my family told me that in a secret meeting, someone took out more materials from Gao Chengsong and finally passed the vote to let Gao Chengsong give way..." Mei Xiaolin stared at Xia Xiang intently, with half curiosity and half doubt in her eyes.
Autumn has arrived and the weather is getting colder. Mei Xiaolin wore jeans and a tight sweater on her upper body, which set off her curves, graceful figure, full buttocks, round upper body, and under her neck, a touch of snow-white, and a mature woman's style is unobstructed. A woman who is nearly 30 years old has indeed more charm than a little girl. The feminine feeling revealed in her every move attracts the eyes of men who are deeply attracted by the wonderful things.
Xia Xiang's eyes swept through her inadvertently, and suddenly remembered that she had not been close to women for a long time. She was inexplicably moved and hurriedly withdrew her gaze and secretly scolded her for being useless.
But it is understandable to think about it. Cao Shugui has not been taken down by him, Xiao Jia is far away in the capital, and even Ruohan has gone to the United States. He is really a good man who is as good as jade.
Mei Xiaolin noticed Xia Xiang's gaze and her face turned slightly red: "What are you looking at? Have you never seen a woman's body?"
A sentence made all the charm in Xia Xiang's heart disappear. He laughed secretly. Mei Xiaolin's biggest advantage is that she is good at hitting other people's imaginations. No matter how ambiguous or romantic the atmosphere, she can make all her beautiful imaginations disappear in one sentence. It's good to avoid making mistakes. Xia Xiang scratched her eyebrows and replied honestly: "I have seen the bodies of a small number of women, but most of them have never seen them."
"Bah, what dirty thoughts are so shameless." Mei Xiaolin spat at Xia, then suddenly smiled ambiguously, "I think you are just lustful and unlucky. Now that you are engaged, you are being kept in a custody by your Cao Shu. Not to mention stealing food, you feel guilty even if you peek at it, right?"
Xia Xiang was speechless and stopped discussing the relationship between men and women with Mei Xiaolin. He asked: "Among the few people in the center, there is no surname Mei. How did your Mei family know this news?"
"Don't try to get our Mei family's relationship network out of my mouth. I won't tell you the truth." Mei Xiaolin glared at Xia Xiang angrily, not knowing why she was dissatisfied with him. "Anyway, I'll reveal the news to you. Do you believe it or not. This news should not be spread yet. I guess it will not be spread to Yan Province before taking action. You can do it yourself. Whether you appreciate it or not is your problem, I'm leaving."
She left as soon as she said she could leave. When the door was closed, she used some force, which made Xia Xiang's eyelids twitch a few times.
The news should be good news and is also trustworthy, but the specific timing remains to be discussed. Xia Xiang also knew that sometimes there was a resolution in Beijing. It might take a month or two to formally publish the document. Sometimes it would be so fast that it was too fast to make people breathless. Is it not an opportunity? Xia Xiang hesitated for a long time before dialing Song Chaodu's phone number.
Song Chaodu didn't speak for a long time, but a slight breathing sound came. It took a few minutes so long that he seemed to have made up his mind and said, "I know a little bit about the Mei family's relationship network. What Mei Xiaolin said is most likely true. But just like you said, the timing is difficult to grasp, but sometimes political matters are a gamble. If I guessed correctly, Gao Chengsong would not be exempted from the end. There must be provincial treatment. If we promote the fire in advance, things will develop in another direction..."
After putting down the phone, Xia Xiang's hand was trembling slightly. For the first time, he felt that he was so close to the center of the storm, so close that he could even smell the uneasiness and trembling in the air before the storm came.
At the end of November, Xing Duantai, Secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, formally informed Xu Dequan, member of the Standing Committee of the Yan Municipal Party Committee and Secretary General of the Municipal Party Committee, at the meeting of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, that he had a serious violation of discipline. In the case of Li Chaosheng, he played a disgraceful role and was a seller in the downstream of Li Chaosheng's private mine. He also accepted bribes from Li Chaosheng, with a huge amount and a serious situation. It is recommended to take measures against him.
Gao Chengsong immediately expressed his objection. He did not believe that Xu Dequan would violate the law and discipline, and pointed out that someone must have made trouble behind the scenes and falsely accused Xu Dequan of his innocence.
"I also know something about Secretary-General Xu's problem. There are many negative statements about him in the municipal party committee. Since Secretary Xing has obtained conclusive evidence, the clear one will be clear, and the turbid one will be turbid, I agree to investigate Xu Dequan." Cui Xiang once again stood opposite Gao Chengsong.
Cui Xiang's resentment towards Gao Chengsong has been around for a long time. Not only was the last Gao Jianyuan's leading real estate incident that allowed him to see through Gao Chengsong's selfish nature, but also because Gao Chengsong was hesitant, the matter of his appointment as deputy secretary of the provincial party committee was delayed again and again. Now Cao Yongguo has been transferred to Baoshi as secretary of the municipal party committee, and Yan Province's cadres are still being adjusted, and Gao Chengsong is still suppressed. It is really angering.
Although Gao Chengsong had no right to decide on his appointment as deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, Gao Chengsong did not submit suggestions to the capital on the grounds that Yan Province needed stability, which was also a key factor that the situation in Yan Province could not be broken. Cui Xiang could guess Gao Chengsong's intention was that he was dragging him down, hoping that he would bow his head to him, or wait for a powerful opportunity to take the opportunity to pick up his people.
Cui Xiang will not miss any opportunity to attack Gao Chengsong.
Gao Chengsong looked at Cui Xiang with a bad look and said with great dissatisfaction: "Secretary Cui should not mix too much personal feelings. Secretary Xu has offended you in his previous work, but you should not hold on to it. Just talk about the matter, not targeting individuals."
Cui Xiang replied calmly: "Secretary Gao is so serious. I just talk about the matter, not targeting Comrade Xu Dequan personally. He was caught by the comrades of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, and I did not find the problem. Of course, if I could find his problem, I would definitely report him according to law."
Gao Chengsong's anger that had been accumulating for a long time suddenly broke out. Song Chaodu, who had been hiding behind the scenes, had no temper to rectify him. He swallowed his anger for a while, but he didn't expect that the other party was still pressing him tightly, and finally raised the sword that was slashing at Xu Dequan. It was unbearable. He finally had an attack and slapped the table with a "slap": "Yixin, too idealistic. A member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee at the level of the department, you can check it as soon as you say, and don't think about how much negative impact it will have to bring to Yan Province? Is it easy for the party and the country to train a cadre? Especially when you reach the department level, how many tests it takes, how many years it takes to train? Just beat him to death with a small matter. What do you want to do? Do you want to retaliate or embarrass me?"
The dignified provincial party secretary lost his mind and furious to everyone in an almost roaring tone!
Two months ago, most people were forced to keep silent or protect themselves due to Gao Chengsong's tyranny. Some neutral factions would immediately change their tone and support Gao Chengsong.
But today it is very different. Everyone looks calm and composed. No one is frightened by Gao Chengsong. Even Governor Ye Shisheng, who has always been known for his weakness, has a faint smile on his lips.
All of them here are members of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and cadres directly under the Central Committee. Gao Chengsong's backstage has been retired. Everyone knows it in their hearts and sees Gao Chengsong's prospects very thoroughly. Therefore, the halo of his provincial party secretary has been weakened a lot. Besides, everyone is an old man in the officialdom for a long time. Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection Xing Duantai has repeatedly targeted Gao Chengsong's people. Will he have no support?
If he did not receive instruction from the upper class, he would believe it.
Gao Chengsong's loss of composure has proved an indisputable fact, that is, his control over Yan Sheng is no longer as good as before.
Ma Wanzheng stood up to be a peacemaker: "Secretary Gao, don't get angry, you should listen to everyone's opinions more. Secretary Xing is an old discipline inspection commission after all. He has been engaged in discipline inspection work for many years and has investigated and handled countless major cases. Facts have proved that he is steady in his work, never fights unsure, and always speaks with facts. Does Comrade Xu Dequan have any problems? Secretary Xing can present facts and reason with everyone. Everyone is a Communist Party member and a long-standing communist fighter. Don't make excuses every time. Everyone can have different opinions, but the starting point is good, and it is all for work needs, right?"
Ma Wanzheng's words are somewhat biased.
Minister of the Propaganda Department Lu Yuanyuan said: "Governor Ma is right. Secretary Xing will tell you what he has at present and see how serious Comrade Xu Dequan's situation is."
Xing Duantai glanced at Gao Chengsong, saw that his face turned pale and had no expression, so he cleared his throat and said, "Based on the evidence currently available and Li Chaosheng's confession, we can confirm that Comrade Xu Dequan not only illegally participated in the private mining operation and sought more than 5 million yuan in personal gain, but also used his position to embezzle more than 300 yuan in public funds and receive more than 3 million yuan in bribes, and the amount involved was as high as 11 million yuan..."
The Standing Committee members here all took a breath of cold air!
Needless to say, Xu Dequan has to spend the rest of his life in prison again. Xing Duan is ruthless in his position, and he will be a big case with one move, with 11 million yuan. Since he dares to propose it at the Standing Committee, the real amount involved in the case may be only a large amount, and Xu Dequan cannot save it...
Everyone looked at Gao Chengsong again.
Gao Chengsong clasped his hands tightly, and the blue veins on his hands were protruding, showing his inner struggle and uneasiness. Sweat beads were faintly oozing on his face on his obesity, and there was a deep sense of frustration in his heart - everyone pushed him down. When he was glorious and when he was in full swing, who dared to punish him? Who dared to say no to him at the Standing Committee? Who dared to contradict him in person?
There was once a media person who said something bad about him and Gao Jianyuan during a party. Under his suggestion, under the manipulation of the Public Security Bureau, he framed the media person and sentenced him to ten years in prison! He is still serving his sentence in prison and is still shouting for justice everywhere - it is useless to shout out loud. Within Yan Province, no one who offended him, Gao Chengsong, had a good ending.
There is also a department-level cadre who is tidying up his materials everywhere and sues him in the capital. Wasn't he also put him in prison and beaten to death? Now he is still recuperating in prison half dead... Who can do what he can do to him?
Now, a trend is slowly forming. Someone in the Standing Committee took the lead in targeting him everywhere? Fang Zili is his person, Xu Dequan is his person, and Shen Fuming, who was planning everything secretly? He couldn't catch anything and hid it tightly. He could deceive him, the provincial party secretary who had been in the officialdom for decades. This person is not simple, and it is amazing.
Gao Chengsong knew that this person was not Xing Duantai. Although Xing Duantai was very scheming, he did not have such calm patience. He was suitable for shouting in front of the stage, but not for hiding behind the scenes to plan. Moreover, with Gao Chengsong's understanding of him, Xing Duantai's vision was definitely not so accurate and profound, and he could not see such a long-term situation.
The members of the Standing Committee here don’t quite like it. They either lack sufficient stability, lack certain conditions, or lack courage and opportunities. Gao Chengsong decided that the person behind the scenes must not be the one who often appears in front of him, otherwise he would not have no impression at all, and he would not remember who it was.
Is it the previous opponent?
Again facing the one-sided pressure from the Standing Committee members, Gao Chengsong suddenly became unexpectedly clear-headed. When facing the doubts of everyone, he was interested in analyzing who was attacking him behind the scenes and pressing him step by step.
He frowned, clasped his hands tightly, and suddenly a name flashed through his mind: Song Chaodu?
Song Chaodu was idle by him at the level of a sub-provincial level for more than two years and has been low-key and almost faded out of everyone's sight. But Gao Chengsong suddenly figured out a clue. Song Chaodu was Li Dingshan's official leader, and Li Dingshan was Xia Xiang's leader. Xia Xiang had a complicated network of relationships. He worked with Li Chaosheng. It was after he arrived in An County that Li Chaosheng suddenly happened... and he also vaguely heard that it was Xia Xiang who exposed Li Chaosheng!
Xia Xiang - Song Chaodu, one front and one behind the scenes? Gao Chengsong thought of Song Chaodu and Xing Duantai's strong relationship, and Xia Xiang's relationship with Cao Yongguo, Cao Yongguo is Lu Yuanyuan's person. Xia Xiang also got closer to Chen Feng, Chen Feng is Secretary Lu's person, everything gradually formed a clear idea in Gao Chengsong's mind... It must be Song Chaodu, and the person behind the scenes, he must be him!
It was Xia Xiang again. Last time the Wu family wanted to deal with him and let him escape by chance. Unexpectedly, he did not repent and was still helping Song Chaodu do things. He was really ungrateful! Gao Chengsong figured out various links and slapped the table suddenly: "Let's see!"
Everyone was surprised. The dignified provincial party secretary didn’t need to say harsh words at the Standing Committee, right?
Gao Chengsong realized that he was losing his composure and remembered that what he was discussing was Xu Dequan's issue. He was about to express his opinion and put pressure on everyone, but suddenly he figured out a key point. The backstage of Song Chaodu was the new one in Beijing. Song Chaodu planned everything behind him, not his own war. With his energy, it was not enough to cause much storm. I am afraid that his actions would be acquiesced by the one in Beijing?
Is it a sign of trying to move him?
Gao Chengsong was shocked and finally realized that something might happen. Then he suddenly thought of what Gao Jianyuan said that he was in close contact with Xia Xiang these days, saying that he wanted to sell the leading real estate and make a lot of money. Moreover, he had transferred most of the money transferred abroad back. Gao Chengsong was shocked and sweated. Oops, and he was fooled by Xia Xiang! He wanted to take the opportunity to delay Jianyuan. As long as the funds were not transferred, Jianyuan would be useless even if he had no money. How could he live abroad without money?
No, I have to remind Jianyuan immediately that he can't mess with Xia Xiang anymore. Xia Xiang is not a good thing at all. He is not helping Jianyuan, but trying to kill him! Jianyuan must be asked to go abroad as soon as possible and can no longer stay in China. I am afraid things will change.
Compared with Gao Jianyuan's safety, Xu Dequan's life and death were simply insignificant. Gao Chengsong stood up and said loudly: "Since the evidence is conclusive, we must investigate it strictly. Once it is investigated to the end, we will never tolerate it. No matter who is involved, we will not let it go... the meeting will be dispersed."
After saying that, he left everyone behind and left.
Everyone looked shocked and looked at each other, not understanding why Secretary Gao suddenly changed his attitude in a short period of time? And seeing his hurrying look, there is obviously something more important to deal with?
What else is more important than holding a standing committee?
But no matter what, the case against Xu Dequan has been filed. Master Xing Duan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Ma Wanzheng inadvertently. The two of them quietly showed a knowing smile.
After Gao Chengsong left the Standing Committee office, he quickly returned to his office and immediately called Gao Jianyuan.
Chapter completed!
