Chapter 102 East Wind and West Wind (VI)

The second accident occurred, Shangqinglin Stone Field was finally forcibly closed.

At this time, the Shayi Highway had been basically completed, and the Transportation Bureau was too lazy to take charge of the stone yard of Qinglin. As the Spring Festival approached, every household of the villagers killed New Year's pigs and prepared to enjoy the fruits of the year's labor. Therefore, the explosion and fan sound of Shangqinglin that had been in Shangqinglin for more than half a year finally stopped.

Hou Weidong, who studied law, has his own opinion on the forcibly closure of the stone yard: the stone yard is a private enterprise, industrial and commercial, taxation and other procedures, and has nothing to do with the Qinglin Town Government. It is an act of overstepping the power of the government to come forward to close the private enterprise.

However, on the territory of Qinglin Town, almost no one agrees with Hou Weidong's view, which makes Hou Weidong lose his temper. The law is made by people and needs to be recognized by people. Only when someone agrees with it can it be implemented. No one agrees with the law is just a piece of paper.

After half a year of busyness, he is completely idle now. Hou Weidong has nothing to do and only feels that his life in Qinglin is boring. His entire property is in the stone yard, and the Transportation Bureau also has a huge amount of money. He is a real rich man. However, all the money he has on him is less than 100 yuan, and he has no money in his hand, so he has no intention of running around. He patiently waits for the town to pay wages and year-end bonuses. After these two sums are paid, he can only go home and go to Shazhou to see Xiaojia.

Hou Weidong entered the newspaper reading time when he first arrived in Qinglin. The only difference was that after ten o'clock every day, villagers must have invited him to dinner. In order to show hospitality, the villagers always tried every means to make Hou Weidong eat and drink well. After eating this circle, Hou Weidong got drunk many times, and reached the point of changing his slut when he smelled wine.

Hou Weidong was like a living god on it, ignoring the battle between Secretary Zhao Yongsheng and Mayor Qin Feiyue. Which one is stronger, the east wind or the west wind, has something to do with him?

As the Spring Festival approaches, Zhao Yongsheng's life is not easy. After the first production suspension, the hidden dangers in the stone yard were not completely cured, so he was rushing to go on. Although it was under the pressure of the county government's key projects, the big hat of "lack of control" was still placed on Zhao Yongsheng's head.

Moreover, in the second accident, the bombardmentist who was killed had not obtained the fire certificate, which was a serious violation of regulations. Qin Feiyue mentioned this matter very cleverly in front of Secretary Zhao, who was in charge of organization and personnel in the county party committee. Although Secretary Zhao of the county and Secretary Zhao of the town were a family five hundred years ago, the relationship between the two was not close because of the same surname Zhao. What kind of normal relationship between superiors and subordinates did they have? Secretary Zhao of the county party committee also had an opinion on Zhao Yongsheng.

As the saying goes, pigs arch towards the front and chickens sprint towards the back, each with their own paths. Zhao Yongsheng ran to the county town for two days, then calmly returned to the town, still working seriously, and fighting with Qin Feiyue openly and secretly.

As the Spring Festival approached, the county's punishment decision finally came out: Deputy Mayor Chao, who was in charge of the enterprise, was awarded a serious demerit.

In addition to ordering Qin Dajiang to pay the Qing Dynasty compensation, the town also fined 10,000 yuan. These two penalties totaled 36,000 yuan. Qin Dajiang was in tears. Hou Weidong asked Deputy Director Zhu Bing several times for his affairs. Director Zeng Zhaoqiang successfully completed the construction of Shayi Road. He was very happy. Seeing that Qin Dajiang's situation was indeed special, the Transportation Bureau paid 40,000 yuan in advance to solve Qin Dadong's compensation.

For Qin Dajiang, this amount of money was like sending carbon in the snow. After taking over four thick stacks of RMB, Qin Dajiang had tears in his eyes. When he left the Finance Office of the Transportation Bureau, he even supported Hou Weidong's shoulder with his hands and then went down the stairs.

Zhu Bing knew that Tian Dadao had no money to compensate and was forced to run away from home, so he suggested paying part of Tian Dadao's payment. Zeng Zhaoqiang nodded in agreement. Zhu Bing returned to the office and sent the news to Hou Weidong.

Hou Weidong knew that Tian Dadao was in dire straits, so he asked Qin Dajiang to rent a taxi, and he went directly to Chi Ming's hometown.

After Chi Ming was beaten, she left a scar on her face. She took half a year of sick leave to go home to recuperate. The recovery is actually temporary, and the most important thing is to avoid debt.

Asked Chi Ming's house all the way, knocked on it several times, and then the door opened. There was a long scar on Chi Ming's face, which looked quite shocking. When she saw that it was Hou Weidong, she subconsciously covered her face with her hands.

"Call Tian Dadao quickly. Good news, the Transportation Bureau will pay 40,000 yuan in advance."

After hearing the news that the Transportation Bureau paid the goods, Chi Ming looked tense and noticed, saying, "Come in quickly, the people from the Liu family have found this place twice. I am really scared. After paying the money, I will never open a stone yard again."

Chi Ming's mother was so fat that she had no figure, but she looked very young. She looked less than fifty years old. She said angrily: "Luckily, the money has arrived, otherwise this life would not be possible. The day before yesterday, someone from the Liu family came, and I picked up the kitchen knife and drove away. These people were really unreasonable. They beat Chi Ming so badly, I want to sue them." Chi Ming said dissatisfiedly: "Mom, forget it, Liu Erwa died miserably, and it is understandable that the family members make trouble."

Hou Weidong said, "Chi Ming, your face is so badly injured, it is considered a broken appearance. You can sue the Liu family in the court and ask the Liu family to compensate you for your losses. I am a law student. People and physical evidence are there, and you will definitely win the case."

Chi Ming closed his eyes and often thought of the bloody hole in Liu Erwa's head. He shook his head and said, "Liu Erwa died miserably, so let's forget about this." Chi Ming's mother asked, "Tian Dadao said that the Transportation Bureau has more than 100,000 yuan in payment. Is this kid bragging?"

"I don't know how many stones Tian Dadao gave to Shayilu, and I don't know exactly, but there must be more than 100,000."

Chi Ming's mother smiled and said, "Thinking this way, I lost 26,000 yuan and earned more than 100,000 yuan." Chi Ming said, "There is still a salary that has not been paid." Chi Ming's mother said, "How much can the salary be? It seems that the business of this stone yard is still possible. After the Spring Festival, Tian Dadao still opened the stone yard."

Chi Ming said unhappily: "I heard that another stone yard in Qin Dajiang killed. It was too dangerous to open the stone yard. It would be opened again."

Chi Ming's mother said disdainfully: "You fool, why don't you do such a profitable business? What are you afraid of if you die? At worst, you can just lose money."

Chi Ming asked Hou Weidong: "What should you do with your stone yard after the Spring Festival?" Hou Weidong said: "After the safety system is standardized, it will still be opened." Chi Ming's mother said happily: "Look at how smart others are. Chi Ming is really stupid. She has no job to find a husband, and she obviously makes money but doesn't want to do it." Chi Ming was really angry and said: "Mom, what are you talking about?"

After passing the letter, the task was completed. Chi Ming's mother rushed to the Transportation Bureau to collect the money. Hou Weidong was also aware and refused Chi Ming's resoluteness and left Chi's family.

Not far away, the pager rang and a Chinese message came: "A meeting was held in the Qinglin Conference Room at three o'clock."

It's really strange, why are you having a meeting at this time?

The Shangqinglin Working Group has long been immersed in the joy before the festival. No one is working seriously. It is a bit crazy to come to the meeting at this time.

Despite feeling inexplicable, Hou Weidong still found a way to return to Shangqinglin. Although it was winter, sweat was flowing on his forehead. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Qin Dajiang standing in the yard. His back, which had been hunched for many days, was standing there and talking and laughing with the village director Jiang Shangshan. When he saw Hou Weidong, he punched hard and said, "Crazy, come to my house tonight. The three of us must be drunk."

This time, Hou Weidong still played a big role in getting 40,000 yuan, and Qin Dajiang's thanks came from the bottom of his heart.

Hou Weidong looked around and said, "Have you given the money?"

Qin Dajiang nodded fiercely, "I took the bus to the Jiang family. The two brothers of the Jiang family saw that I was very fierce. When they heard that they were giving money, they immediately brought tea and water to me. After counting the money, they held my hand and treated me as a brother. Damn, they even carried a knife to chop me up a few days ago. They were all people who were jealous of money. Brother Jiang died miserably, and they were the two goddamn gods."

Seeing Qin Dajiang relaxed, Hou Weidong was also happy, because there was indeed a risk in opening a stone yard. Today is the Qin Dajiang stone yard, and tomorrow may be the principle of being bent and working together. Hou Weidong still understands it.

"What's going on today?"

"It was Mayor Qin who notified me that it was a safety production meeting before the Spring Festival?"

"Isn't this meeting opened? Now the stone yard and coal factory have been stopped. Is it still necessary to open it?"

Qin Dajiang smiled brightly, "No matter what he does, we won't be drunk tonight anyway."

After a car rang, Qin Feiyue's Santana drove in. After stopping, Qin Feiyue got off the car with a smile. Seeing Qin Dajiang's spirits, he said, "Old Qin, the money matter has been implemented."

"The Transportation Bureau has paid some money, and I have already settled the matter with the Jiang family."

Qin Feiyue smiled and said, "I know this. I called Zeng Zhaoqiang this afternoon, and he said you received 40,000 yuan, and Tian Dadao also had 40,000 yuan."

Qin Dajiang only knew about collecting money from a very small range. Qin Feiyue said the amount of money accurately, which means that Qin Feiyue did call the director of the Transportation Bureau Zeng Zhaoqiang. Qin Dajiang was not very educated, but he had a lot of understanding and experience. He hugged his fists and said, "Master Qin, you are really worried."

The village party secretaries and directors of the three villages all arrived at the conference room one after another, and the working group members came to Baichuncheng, Gao Township Mayor and Hou Weidong.

After the meeting, Qin Feiyue repeatedly emphasized safety issues. After two safety accidents, the cadres of the three villages heard calluses in their ears, and they were all quite impatient. Fortunately, Qin Feiyue only spoke for more than half an hour, and then asked the village cadres to speak. After another half an hour, Qin Feiyue waved his hand and said, "I see that the Chinese New Year is coming, I will be fine. Today's meeting ends here. I will treat everyone to dinner and drink some good wine in the evening, and everyone will have a peaceful Spring Festival."

As soon as this proposal came out, everyone applauded.

It was indeed a good wine, which was rarely seen by Yi Yang. I don’t know where Qin Feiyue got it. More than a dozen people drank ten bottles. When the show ended, Qin Feiyue shook hands with each village cadre while the wine was booming and said some intimate words. Before leaving, the driver even brought a duck to each village cadre.

Hou Weidong also got one. He held the duck and watched the village cadres disperse, and his heart was shiny: Qin Feiyue was very scheming, and this must have laid the foundation for the 1995 election.
