Chapter 920
: Fire, old things
When I got off the car, I saw a serious car accident!
The car and an Audi collided head-on, which was very tragic. The water tank was broken, the wind flakes were scattered all over the ground, the parts were everywhere, and water vapor was gushing outwards on the front of the car.
The Audi car brought by Lao Gu was borrowed from somewhere. The license plate was very ordinary and the style was also very ordinary. Xia Xiang didn't ask too much because he knew that Lao Gu didn't like Zhang Yang after he stepped down - but why did he hit the car when he drove normally? He immediately understood that his car was driving normally and the other party's car was moving in the opposite direction, so no wonder he would collide head-on.
Xia Xiang was angry and stepped forward and opened the other party's car door: "How did you drive? Do you understand traffic regulations? You are too brave to move on the national highway!" Fortunately, the car was not fast at the turn, otherwise something big would definitely happen, so he was furious.
The driver who drove the car had a wide arm and a round waist, which was Kong Wu's powerful type. He drank wine at a glance and was drunk and couldn't even open his eyes. He staggered out of the car, but he didn't know what happened. When he saw a car accident, he suddenly changed his face. He stepped forward and kicked the car door, and immediately kicked a big hole.
"Damn, what's the matter? You dare to block my way? Do you know who is in the car? Hurry up and apologize first and then compensate for the loss of 100,000 yuan!" The driver was not finished cursing, and he reached out to push Xia Xiang, so he wanted to hit someone.
Xia Xiang has a different identity now. He is the head of a city and will not easily fight with others. He took a step back and said majesticly: "Stop! Which unit are you from, who else is in the car?"
Xia Xiang was a senior official after all. Even if he didn't show his authority, he would develop his authority and dignity after he was in power for a long time. He said one sentence, which immediately made the driver wake up and stopped moving. He looked Xia Xiang up and down for a few times, and hesitated a little.
But it was just in response to an old saying, "The dog looked down on people, not to mention that he was drunk, and there was another old saying that drinking to make cowards brave. He has always been accustomed to being arrogant. He only recognizes the power of the license plate and the police car leading the way. If he doesn't recognize people, he doesn't even think about who the person in front of him. He then reached out to Xia Xiang with awe: "Where did you come from? You can't control who I am. If your car crashes into my car, you have to pay for it!"
Xiao Wu's car stopped in front and thought about it, but was stopped by Xia Xiang's wink.
"Why did you stop?" Another person got out of the car, in his 50s, full of energy and impatience and arrogance: "Why haven't you left yet? The bureau is still waiting for me to have a meeting... Who is shouting, is there any traffic police? Do you dare to stop any car? Ask him which unit he is from and call their leader..."
What a big tone!
Xia Xiang watched coldly. He had already seen the pass erected on the front windshield of the car, which read "Tianze Municipal Land and Resources Administration Bureau". He looked at the license plate again and felt confident that the other party was probably Dong Xiaoming, director of the Land and Resources Administration Bureau.
In fact, after Xia Xiang came to Tianze City, although he did not have the idea of separating power from Chen Jiewen, he was unwilling to let others intervene in the situation that he deserved to be under his jurisdiction. As the mayor, his authority cannot be violated.
Most of the deputy mayors and directors of various bureaus cooperated with their work, at least on the surface, respected him, reported on his work, asked for instructions, and made him unable to take care of everything. He did not require everyone to completely obey his orders, at least he could pass the big things and comply with the rules on the big side. Everything was easy to say. If someone insisted on finding trouble, he was not without skills.
There were indeed a very few directors who looked indifferent to him, neither took the initiative to report to him, nor even went beyond everything, and asked Chen Jiewen for instructions directly, Dong Xiaoming was one of them.
Therefore, Mayor Xia has been in Tianze City for more than a month. Apart from meeting Dong Xiaoming at the public conference, he has never had any private contact. Today is the first time.
The first meeting started with a car crash. Xia Xiangxin thought of a Dong Xiaoming, who was surnamed Dong, but he was not sensible at all.
Dong Xiaoming also drank a lot of wine. Standing in the distance, he looked at the license plate first, and when he saw the ordinary license plates in Beijing, he became more confident. The first thing people in party and government agencies learned was to look at the license plates first. Because the pompousness determines the level, the license plate determines the status. There is neither the pomp and the license plate, he is definitely a commoner who can bully him. He drank too much today and was blocked by a tall and powerful driver, so he did not recognize that the person confronted the driver was the new Mayor Xia.
The driver was shocked by Xia Xiang just now. Now that Director Dong got out of the car, he was very confident, and he reached out and wanted to grab Xia Xiang's collar again. Unexpectedly, as soon as his hand was stretched out, he felt a huge pain coming from his back. He couldn't stop his power and suddenly fell a dog to bite the mud.
Lao Gu's driver flashed and came to Xia Xiang's face: "Mayor Xia, let me do something about touching me. The leader has given instructions that as long as you don't beat me to death, you can beat me no matter how you beat me!"
Well, Xia figured it out. Lao Gu's driver must be not an ordinary person, at least he is a special force soldier. Usually Lao Gu is too lazy to bother with some cats and dogs, but today he is not upset. The other party is desperate to hit the gun, so he can only blame them for being unlucky.
Originally, I wanted to rely on the mayor's mighty to shock Dong Xiaoming, but now it seems that I don't have to show up anymore. Xia Xiang nodded and turned around and got into the car again.
Lao Gu really looked angry: "Some people can cause trouble when they come to relax. I am always old, but not all cats and dogs can block the way."
Lao Gu was angry, and the situation was very serious. This was the first time Xia Xiang saw Lao Gu angry, and he knew that Lao Gu was not Dong Xiaoming's angry - Dong Xiaoming's level could not reach Lao Gu's eyes at all - Lao Gu was still his angry, but unfortunately, Dong Xiaoming became a punching bag.
Xia Xiang thought Lao Gu was just asking the driver to teach the other party a lesson, but unexpectedly, the driver knocked down Dong Xiaoming's driver, then strode forward and raised his hand to slap Dong Xiaoming twice in the face!
Dong Xiaoming was knocked out on the spot!
Dong Xiaoming covered his face, unable to believe what had just happened. He was stunned for a moment, and suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs: "I've hit someone, I've beaten state cadres, call the police!"
I don’t know who called the police, but as soon as Dong Xiaoming finished speaking, the sirens sounded loudly. After a moment, three police cars came and surrounded the scene.
Xia Xiang saw Lao Gu calmly and said, "I'll come forward to deal with it?"
Lao Gu looked dissatisfied and waved his hand: "Tianze City is your territory, so I can't stretch my arms and kick my legs? Just rest and don't show up."
As soon as seven or eight policemen surrounded the scene, Dong Xiaoming rushed to the police led by the police to complain. The police were about to chasing Lao Gu's driver when suddenly a military card came roaring and more than 20 soldiers jumped out of the car. Without saying a word, they pushed the police aside. Then they beat Dong Xiaoming and his driver around him. It was not counting as to beat people, but they also smashed the car and smashed the car to pieces.
The police looked at each other and did not dare to take a step forward. The police were afraid of the soldiers and knew that the people in the army had their origins and they could not afford to offend them. If they could not afford to offend them, they could only afford to hide, so they had to watch Dong Xiaoming be beaten so hard that he cried and called his parents.
The beating lasted for less than two minutes. Dong Xiaoming's car was overturned. It didn't matter if the car was overturned. As soon as the trunk was opened, pieces of paper scattered from it. The wind blew into the crowd.
A burst of exclamation came from the crowd: "Money! One hundred yuan!"
A whole bag of 100 yuan bills, under the estimation, it is at least 100,000 yuan! The trunk of a director's special car has 100,000 yuan in cash, so a Land and Resources Administration Bureau!
Xia Xiang didn't expect that Lao Gu would get angry and give Dong Xiaoming anger and gain unexpectedly. He didn't want to start with personnel issues as soon as he came to Tianze City, but now he hit him in his hand. It's not his personality that he doesn't punish corrupt officials severely.
"Secretary Chen, a traffic accident occurred at the intersection of Hongqi Street. Dong Xiaoming, director of the Land and Resources Bureau, hindered the military mission and was overturned. The car had a lot of cash on the trunk and spilled all over the floor. Now there are no less than a few hundred people watching. You'd better deal with it yourself." Xia Xiang called Chen Jiewen directly with a phone call. He didn't feel at ease to call anyone. He didn't know Pei Yifeng's character, so he simply kicked the ball directly to Chen Jiewen, "I happened to pass by and I don't have time to deal with it. I have to accompany the guests in the capital... The situation is urgent, and if it spreads, the face of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government will be lost!"
When Chen Jiewen heard this, she secretly called Dong Xiaoming a donkey. Why was she caught by Mayor Xia? She was so stupid. She knew more about Xia’s intention to call her in person. If he wanted to stay out of the matter, it depends on how she handled and dealt with it.
Xia Xiang never showed up from beginning to end. Under the cover of the soldiers, he changed into a car and left the scene calmly.
The car accident happened on the national highway. It is estimated that Director Dong also went downstairs to play. After having a lot of fun, he rushed back to the city for a meeting. As a result, he was driving under the influence and was in great trouble. He deserved it. If he hit someone else, it would be someone else's luck.
After beating someone and overturning the car, Lao Gu's mood was obviously much better. After a while, he arrived at the prairie and his face finally stretched out. As soon as he got off the car, he said to Xia, "Xiao Xia, accompany me to ride a horse and have fun."
"Grandpa, you have old arms and legs, don't fall..." Gu Yu refused to agree.
Xia still wants to know Lao Gu: "Lao Gu used to be a sword and a horse, but now he doesn't have a sword, so it's still okay to be a horse. Gu Yu, come, run around."
Guyu wore jeans and boots, and was dressed very skillfully. When Xia Xiang was encouraged, she would have a whim: "Okay, just ride it, whoever is afraid of whom."
The three of them hired three horses. Xia Xiang didn't regard himself as the mayor, but only as an ordinary tourist. He spent money as usual. Fortunately, he brought a thousand yuan with him when he went out today, otherwise he would be embarrassing.
The autumn was clear and the wind was bright and the sun was bright. The three of them walked away and slowly towards the depths of the grassland. Xia Xiang suddenly remembered Ba County a few years ago. He and Cao Shugui rode a horse together. It was the time when the friendship was in love and lingering, and they met Lian Ruohan.
Now he and Guyu are riding a horse side by side, and Lao Gu takes the lead and leaves them far behind. I don’t know if he intends to leave space for him and Guyu.
The sky is so blue that it is charming, the grassland is so quiet that it is charming, and the ancient jade is so beautiful that it is charming.
"I accompanied my grandfather to relax in Europe, and quit my job as the leading group and lived in a small town in Europe for two months. I was so relaxed. My life was as leisurely as flowing water, and it was casual and happy. I..." Gu Yu looked at Xia Yao reluctantly, "I want to settle in Europe, but I am a little reluctant to leave you. Although I know that you don't lack a silly girl like me, you don't miss me, but I miss you."
Ancient jade is ancient jade, simple and simple enough to make people feel pity for life.
"If you want to go, go. I can't accompany you for the rest of your life. You need to have your own life." Xia Xiang said it relaxed, but in fact he was reluctant to leave, but he couldn't be too selfish. He couldn't give up the ancient jade tomorrow, so he couldn't delay the youthful years of ancient jade. "As long as you are happy, no matter whether you are with me or not, living happily is the greatest pursuit in life."
Gu Yu's eyes showed a faint sadness: "Well, I haven't completely thought about it yet. Let me think about it for a while. I agreed that you don't want to drive me away or coax me to stay. Just let everything go with the flow, okay?"
"Okay." Xia Xiang was speechless. The ancient jade was like a breeze. It was her personality. If she wanted to nostalgia, she would circumvent her side. If she wanted to leave, she would let her come and go without a trace.
"Is Lao Gu angry with me?" Xia Xiang took the initiative to raise the topic and answer the biggest question in his heart.
"It's a bit." Gu Yu didn't know how to lie, but she seemed to have always revealed her simplest side in front of Xia Xiang. "Grandpa also quarreled with Mr. Wu."
"Ah?" Xia Yao was very surprised. It would be understandable that Lao Gu was angry with him, but it was too unexpected that Lao Gu and Mr. Wu had a quarrel. After all, in his impression, there seemed to be no contact between Lao Gu and Mr. Wu.
"What's the fuss? Let me tell you that grandpa is not really angry with you, but the angry with Mr. Wu. He always thinks that you were deceived by Mr. Wu. No, you were deceived by the beauty trick." Gu Yu blushed and suddenly lowered his voice and said in a low voice, "Did I think I used the beauty trick to deceive you?"
The little girl didn't look shy and simple, but she also had her seductive and delicious side. Xia Xiang was teased by her beauty and couldn't help but be moved: "You have learned bad things, ancient jade is no better than before."
"I'm all a woman, okay? I'm not a little girl. What's wrong with it? Besides, you're a man, you think of that thing more than me. It's not that I seduced you with a beauty trick, it's you who deceived me. I told my grandfather..." Gu Yu's killer move was to tell Lao Gu what she and Xia Xiang were doing to scare Xia Xiang.
Unexpectedly, Xia Xiang didn't scare Xia Xiang today, but Xia Xiang just smiled calmly: "Lao Gu already knows."
"Ah, it's true? Don't lie. I'm timid, afraid that my grandfather will break my legs." Gu Yu looked frightened, not like fear, but like a intentional temptation. Even a good person like Xia Xiang could inevitably flash a trace of evil thoughts - Gu Yu's innocence and simplicity is the most deadly temptation for men.
Soon after, I came to an open land. Looking around, I saw that there were yurts of all sizes. Lao Gu stopped in front and laughed: "Mayor Xia, how about living in yurts at night? You are busy with official business, are you willing to accompany me, the old man for a day?"
No matter how big or important the matter is, it is not important to accompany Lao Gu. Xia Xiang laughed: "Lao Gu, it's okay to accompany you, but I only have a thousand yuan on me. If I don't have enough money to spend, don't blame me."
"Oh, you're so stingy." Gu Yu shouted, "I brought the money, so I won't spend a penny on you."
Lao Gu shook his head helplessly: "Yu Meitu is too straightforward. She believes whatever you say. It would be strange if you don't cheat me."
Xia Xiang quickly changed the sensitive topic: "Last time I told you that I was a grassroots person. In essence, I tend to be a market economy. Now there are signs of powerful capitalism, but if it is just a simple confrontation and suppression, it will cause hostility and may also achieve the opposite effect. Cooperation and assimilation are the most suitable path for me."
"The middle of the road, don't fall on both sides - to put it bluntly, it's the doctrine of the mean, I understand the great principles, don't think I'm a rough man." Lao Gu got off the horse and led the horse, "The main reason is that you are too annoying. Now you are a senior official at the department level and want to play the edge ball. How to end in the future? Even if the Prime Minister gives you time, I will accommodate you once. Do you think the Wu family will forgive you? Do you think the family forces will always be warm to you? If they turn against each other, they will be really scary, including the old man Wu who you think you love to take care of you the most!"
"Old man Wu is the oldest and most scheming, and he is the most scheming. Xia Xiang, you are much younger than him..." Lao Gu became more and more angry as he spoke. Obviously, the quarrel that Gu Yu said was most likely true. "Old man Wu is not only skillful and scheming, but also lie. He must have said in front of you that he will not live for a few years, right?"
"..." Xia Xiang was stunned. Not to mention that Lao Gu knew Mr. Wu very deeply.
"I went to him to argue, but he played Tai Chi with me, saying that he just didn't talk about the serious business. I was anxious and argued with him, so he pretended to cough, saying that he would not live for a few years, and he wanted to help you on the horse and send you for a while, so he was satisfied. I had already secretly investigated his physical condition. The doctor said that his physical fitness was very good and that it would not be a problem to live for another 20 years! Old fox!"
Xia Xiang shook his head helplessly and laughed silently. Perhaps as Lao Gu said, Mr. Wu was in good health, but what the doctor said was that he could live for 20 years was simply talking nonsense. The old man's age and health are good now does not mean that he will be better next year. When a person is old, it is indeed appropriate to describe it as a twilight year. When a gust of wind blows, maybe the person will be gone.
Of course, it is not deny that the old man played the tragic card in front of him, was playing tricks on others' thoughts throughout his life and let others follow his own ideas. Xia Xiang can understand the old man's painstaking efforts.
Of course, he also understood Lao Gu's good intentions, but Lao Gu was straight-minded and a soldier. In terms of scheming and speech, he was definitely not as good as Mr. Wu, who had always played with power. Lao Gu was full of sparks, so he must have eaten in front of Mr. Wu.
He stayed in a yurt at night, and the three of them ordered three small bags, which was equivalent to a single room for each. After eating Mongolian-style meals at night, Xia Xiang and Lao Gu drank some wine. He always wanted to ask Prime Minister Lao Gu’s opinion of him, but he didn’t have the chance to speak, because Lao Gu might have drunk too much, always talked about his events back then, and also mentioned the unpleasant past between him and Mr. Wu.
