Chapter 452 Arrangement (Part 2)

After a busy day, I finally sat down to update, a little later.

…………………………………………

In order to open up the work situation in Chengjin, County Mayor Jiang Xiangyu is a hurdle that he cannot overcome, and this person's attitude has always been very vague. Although he is called "Jiang Dapao" because he can talk, he cannot hear his voice on key issues.

When Hou Weidong arrived in Chengjin, the two of them had been in contact, but they had never really involved in core work. He was really not sure about this person's attitude.

Moreover, Zhou Changquan had no clear attitude towards Jiang Xiangyu.

Hou Weidong has Jiang Xiangyu's archives materials in his hand, which were copied through Su Mingjun's back door. He repeatedly studied Jiang Xiangyu's archives, combined with his direct and indirect impressions, and also made a basic judgment on him:

First, Jiang Xiangyu is a local cadre. In 1982, he became a hired cadre. He was a high school student and took seventeen years to become the county magistrate of Chengjin from the grassroots township cadres, which shows that this person must have outstanding features.

Second, Jiang Xiangyu and Zhou Changquan have not had close relationships. According to relatively reliable information, he has a close relationship with Deputy Secretary Jiang of the Municipal Party Committee who has been transferred from Shazhou. From this perspective, Jiang Xiangyu does not have a stronger and deeper network of relationships at the upper level, at least this is the case that Hou Weidong has mastered.

Third, Jiang Xiangyu did not have much connection with the phosphate ore. At least the materials currently mastered by all parties do not show this. In other words, he is relatively clean and not deeply trapped in the vortex. Among the county leaders, the one who is most closely related to the phosphate ore is Li Taizhong, the former member of the county party committee and executive deputy county magistrate.

Fourth. In Chengjin County, Zhang Yongtai is a lonely fighter, and Jiang Xiangyu seems to be free to rectify the mining order. He has not heard of his outstanding political achievements, nor has he been criticized for his bad comments.

After deciphering it one by one, Jiang Xiangyu's image became vivid. This is a person who is eloquent on the surface but is actually quite cautious.

On August 7th, Xiaojia's maternity leave was about to end, so she took a break and drove to Chengjin County in a Bluebird car. Her husband became the deputy secretary of the county party committee. She still couldn't help but think of Chengjin to come and take a look and go.

"County Magistrate Jiang, I am Hou Weidong." Hou Weidong personally called Jiang Xiangyu, wanting to have an appointment with the two families for dinner. By the way, increase your relationship and learn about the situation.

At Jiang Xiangyu's house, the door was closed and the air conditioner was turned on at twenty degrees. He wore a pair of shorts and was bare-handedly watching the old TV "Journey to the West" at home. When he heard the phone ringing, he said to his wife: "You go and pick it up. See who it is. If there is nothing particularly important, I will say that my phone has fallen at home."

Jiang Xiangyu's wife took the phone. She didn't hear what the other party was saying clearly, and said, "I'm sorry, Jiang's phone dropped from home. I'll call it another day, okay?" Hou Weidong used to be Zhou Changquan's secretary and often helped Zhou Changquan reject guests. He obviously felt that Jiang's wife was talking about panic, but he didn't point it out. He said, "If County Mayor Jiang comes home, please call me back."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang's wife muttered: "People nowadays really don't understand the rules. I don't know who this young man is, and I even asked you to call back." Jiang Xiangyu was very sensitive. He quickly took the phone, looked at the number, and said: "It's Hou Weidong's phone."

"The new secretary's phone number?"

"Um."

Old Jiang’s wife said: “You’d better call back. Hu Hai said that Hou Weidong has a very different relationship with the upper class. In the past few days, three members of the Standing Committee, Zhao Dong, Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee, Du Zhengdong, and Secretary-General Hong Ang, arrived in Chengjin. I heard that the Standing Committee Deputy Mayor Bu Haiyun is also going to Shazhou recently, and his relationship is even stronger than Zhang Yongtai.”

Jiang Xiangyu interrupted impatiently: "Women should not be in charge of men's affairs." He is a local cadre and has a deep understanding of Chengjin's affairs. Zhang Yongtai wanted to join him to rectify the phosphate mine several times backed by Zhang Yongtai. Although Zhang Yongtai had Zhou Changquan's support, he wisely chose to hide in the dark, allowing Zhang Yongtai to challenge the huge interest body head-on.

He clearly realized that when Hou Weidong came to Chengjin, he continued what Zhang Yongtai had not done, but the city also realized the seriousness of the problem and gave Hou Weidong more and more powerful support.

"Send Zhou Changquan's personal secretary to Chengjin, which shows that Zhou Changquan is so determined. It must be Zhang Yongtai's incident that stimulated him."

"Transferring Li Taizhong from Shazhou is a plan to lure the tiger out of the mountain."

"Let Deng Jiachun and Yang Yong come to the Public Security Bureau and the Procuratorate, this is to take the violent organs into their hands."

Jiang Xiangyu saw the arrangement of the city very clearly.

He did not want to participate in the rectification of phosphate ore, which did not mean that he opposed this matter. Since Hou Weidong came to Chengjin so strongly, he was secretly cooperating and letting Hou Weidong, a young man, charge into battle, be a huge profit. It is not only not to be a pioneer, but also to prevent the superiors from finding too many problems. This is Jiang Xiangyu's special guerrilla tactics.

In the past, he had this attitude towards Zhang Yongtai, and now he also had this attitude towards Hou Weidong. He was just more proactive in his attitude towards Hou Weidong. He could only share the fruits when Hou Weidong wins. Of course, he was still just cooperating. The Li and Fang families have formed a force, and it is probably not too easy for Hou Weidong to win.

An hour later, Jiang Xiangyu called Hou Weidong back, "Secretary Hou, sorry, I just went out and dropped my phone at home. My wife's house doesn't know my number. Secretary Hou, what's wrong?"

Hou Weidong received the call and laughed: "County Magistrate Jiang, do you have time today? My wife came from Shazhou and asked her sister-in-law to have lunch together."

"Okay, the county party committee guesthouse is just those tricks. I've been tired of eating it. Let's change the place." Jiang Xiangyu knew that Hou Weidong was trying to talk about the family banquet, and the county party committee guesthouse was the most unconfidential place. He didn't want to have dinner at the guesthouse, so he took the initiative to help him find a place.

"County Magistrate Jiang is Lao Chengjin. I see where the right place is. I will drive over to pick you up later. Today I will take my wife's car so that others will not say that our county magistrate and secretary are eating and drinking."

Jiang Xiangyu nodded secretly and thought to himself: "It seems that Hou Weidong is more careful and scheming than Zhang Yongtai. Zhang Yongtai is too tough, and it is easy to break even if he is too tough."

He said, "Then let's go to the farmhouse in the suburbs. I know that the family is very good and there are few people who usually go there."

"Ten minutes later, I came to the county party committee's family compound."

Hou Weidong put down the phone and said to Xiaojia: "I made an appointment with County Mayor Jiang to go to a farmhouse in the suburbs." Xiaojia looked at the sun outside the door and said: "It's so hot, why bother going to the suburbs? There is no air conditioner. Why bother to invite County Mayor Jiang to have a home-cooked meal at the guesthouse."

Hou Weidong was unwilling to tell Xiaojia about the complicated situation in Chengjin County and said, "My identity is different now. On Saturday, the secretary and county magistrate were in the guesthouse for public funds, and it was not good to spread it."

Xiaojia smiled and said, "The dignified secretary and county magistrate need to worry about it. Which of you two leaders dares to gossip? Chengjin's finance is more than 100 million. If we don't have to pay for this meal, how much can we eat? According to the price of the guesthouse, it would be a big deal for four people to eat for 200 yuan."

Hou Weidong joked: "I invite you to a meal and pick you up. If you are anxious, I will let you eat instant noodles."

The two talked and laughed, hugged each other for a while, and then set off to pick up Jiang Xiangyu.

The place to eat was not far from the suburbs, and there was a clean farmhouse yard. When the car stopped, the owner had already come over. He shouted, "Cousin-law and sister-in-law." He took out the cigarette and handed it to Hou Weidong, while saying, "Secretary Hou, there is nothing delicious in my small place."

There is a pond in front of the courtyard, a large basket of bamboo behind, and a forest on the left. The environment is pretty good. A yellow dog is lying at the door, spitting his tongue out.

Xiaojia was very social. She got off the car and was already talking and laughing with Jiang's wife. The two went upstairs to watch TV together.

Hou Weidong and Jiang Xiangyu were sitting in the main hall. Jiang Xiangyu said, "Secretary Hou is a distinguished guest. Take out the Mingqian tea you made yourself." He explained to Hou Weidong again: "There are many mountains in Chengjin, and the tea developed well in the past. In the early 1980s, they were comparable to Yiyang tea. In recent years, there were fewer and fewer tea plants."

Jiang Xiangyu's cousin came in with tea and said, "After the tea factory was in the past, there were fewer people who collected tea and could not find a lot of money. Now most rural laborers go to work and go to enterprises, and they are not very interested in the rural setting. No one cares about the tea behind the mountain, and it has become wild tea. I pick a little of it before Qingming Festival every year, which is enough to drink it for a year."

Hou Weidong and Jiang Xiangyu were drinking tea and smoking, and chatting from all over the world.

Hou Weidong quickly turned the topic to the phosphate mine and said: "From Chengjin to Maoyun, the Maodong mountain range produces phosphate mines. The largest reserves are the phosphate mines in Chengjin and Dongxiang County in Maodong."

Seeing that Hou Weidong was indeed talking about the phosphate mine, Jiang Xiangyu thought for a while and said, "The phosphate mine in Chengjin was mined very early. It was when township enterprises were really popular in the 1980s. The initiator was Li Taizhong's father-in-law Fang County Magistrate. Fang County Magistrate Fang's hometown is Feishi Town. Feishi Town's phosphate mine has a large reserve and shallow burial. He was the township chief of Feishi Town at that time and led his fellow townsmen to open a lot of phosphate mines. At that time, they mined shallow mines. Now there are basically no such shallow mines, and they are all deep mines, and the cost is much higher than before."

The history of phosphate ore mentioned by Jiang Xiangyu is basically consistent with Hou Weidong's grasp, but when he heard Jiang Xiangyu talk about Li Taizhong's family directly, he was very interested and deliberately tentatively tentatively: "County Magistrate Lao Fang is a hero in Chengjin Phosphorus Ore mining."

"In the three towns including Feishi, Dingshan, Hongxing, there are high phosphate mineral production, good quality and easy mining. One-third of the bosses are surnamed Fang and one-third are surnamed Chen. The others have various relationships, namely, the rural family-style complexity, and the modern family-owned enterprise model. What's more, these people form a community of interests, and many mines have thugs. Chengjin's criminal cases are related to these people."

Hou Weidong originally thought that Jiang Xiangyu would be very hiding about this matter, but he did not expect him to be so straightforward, so he went straight to the point and said: "County Magistrate Jiang, in Secretary Zhou's office that day, he mentioned that Chengjin's phosphate mine tax loss is very large. In your estimate, how big is this loophole?"
