Chapter 787: Pollution Problems (Part 2)

When Wang Bing was a driver for Hou Weidong, he was the instructor of the driving school under the Yiyang Transportation Bureau. After being attracted by Hou Weidong, he was transferred to the development zone to drive a small car for Hou Weidong. Later, Zhu Yan failed to attack the deputy mayor of Shazhou and was sent to the provincial party school to study. Hou Weidong asked Wang Bing to go to the provincial capital to be a temporary driver and instructor for Zhu Yan. As a result, Wang Bing was attracted by Zhu Yan, and took his love with him, and brought Wang Bing to his side.

A few years have passed, and Wang Bing has become the deputy captain of the Maoyun Traffic Police Detachment. His growth has a leap point, which is when Hou Weidong takes him out of the driving school.

At this time, Wang Bing saw the young old leader Hou Weidong, and was very intimate. He held his hand and refused to let go, saying, "Secretary General, when will I transfer me to you?"

"A while ago, I transferred a traffic policeman in Lingxi to me and drove for me. I was very satisfied. Who knew that it hadn't been driving for long, but Governor Zhou looked at him. Now he was transferred to him. His current master has just transferred from the army." Hou Weidong smiled and said, "I want to transfer here, but you are the leader of the traffic police. How can I be qualified to let the deputy captain be a driver? Besides, I want you now, Secretary Zhu will not let him go."

Wang Bing said emotionally: "It's not easy for Secretary Zhu. When I came to Maoyun a few years ago, Maoyun was dilapidated everywhere, and there were not many good roads in the city. Now the high-rise buildings, squares and green belts we see are all built by Secretary Zhu. Moreover, Maoyun is backward and particularly xenophobic. Each county has factions and groups. There are always some people staring at Secretary Zhu and they have to make trouble from time to time."

Zhu Yan was able to work in Maoyun. The very important reason was that Maoyun's team collectively caused an earthquake in the officialdom. This was an opportunity and a picky point for him. In a few years, Maoyun's governance, economy and social undertakings were showing a rapid upward trend, which was also the premise that Zhu Yan was highly valued by the provincial party committee. Hou Weidong sincerely hoped that Zhu Yan could become the director of the provincial party committee's organization. This position would have positive significance for Hou Weidong's own development. At this time, he took action to help Zhu Yan and would make a fortune.

At this moment, a small car with a license plate in Lingxi drove past the road and passed the traffic light. The car stopped.

Duan Chuanlin was in the car and called Hou Weidong and said, "Secretary-General, I am Chuanlin. It's right in Maoyun, in front of you."

Hou Weidong saw the car and said, "Li Ying has a performance tonight. Will she come to support her?"

Duan Chuanlin said: "I am supporting you, and I also want to go to Dongxiang County to take a look. I heard that the Qingda Gold Mine is being rectified and the small mines have been closed. I will do a supplementary investigation."

Hou Weidong intended to help Zhu Yan and said, "After the performance is over in the evening, Secretary Zhu will invite Captain Liu and a few Chinese in the group to have midnight snacks, and Li Ying will also participate. You will attend together at that time. Listen to the attitude of Maoyun's top leader on this matter."

Duan Chuanlin said happily: "If I have time in the evening, I will definitely participate." After hanging up the phone, he got out of the car and walked back to meet Hou Weidong on his own initiative.

Hou Weidong shook hands with Duan Chuanlin, joked, and said, "Today you came to Maoyun as a family member. Don't think about work anymore, enjoy the show."

Duan Chuanlin said: "I'm just working hard. I heard that the Maoyun Municipal Government has made great efforts to rectify the gold mines and can't sit still. I want to go and take a look. If it is indeed done well, it can be a good example."

Hou Weidong knew that gold mining enterprises were "half gold and half sewage". It was not easy to do it well, and it would not take a few days to achieve it. He said: "It is not easy for local governments. If they develop slowly, they will lose opportunities and be scolded by the people. However, if they develop faster, many places are imperfect, leaving many future problems, and they will be scolded by the people. This takes time to slowly digest it."

Duan Chuanlin said: "Secretary-General, I will objectively reflect the whole story of the matter, and will not be extreme or add to my own opinions."

After breaking up with Hou Weidong, Duan Chuanlin thought for a while, then resolutely left Maoyun City and drove straight to Dongxiang County.

Entering Dongxiang County, along the Dongxiang River Channel, there are many small gold mines on both sides. After passing Dongxiang Bridge for about 500 meters, there are tall slag piled up in the river bay. This slag existed last time and is still in the river bay.

After Duan Chuanlin took pictures, he continued to move upwards.

Walking a few kilometers forward, a very thick water pipe was exposed in a black slag pile. The white wastewater kept flowing out, forming a stream flowing into the Dongxiang River. The outlet of the mine warehouse was also exposed outside, and the white water kept overflowing from the outlet and slowly flowing into the river. The river water in this section was obviously white and turbid.

Duan Chuanlin thought about the situation introduction of the comrades of Maoyun Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau and cursed, "No one of these officials is the truth." He remembered what Hou Weidong said in Maoyun and said intimately: "Hou Weidong's official position is getting bigger and bigger, and he is more and more assimilated by the officialdom. He knew that Dongxiang was polluted, but he helped Zhu Yan be a lobbyist."

After driving for an hour, the road became more and more difficult to walk. This section of the road has been through the forest several times, so he was not afraid. He knew that there was a small gold mine in front of him, which was also the gold mine he paid the most attention to. This mine is a typical small mine, which builds a simple house on the hillside without a sign.

The last time I arrived, this nameless gold mine was still lively, but it was very deserted when I came here. Duan Chuanlin arrived at the door and took a few photos.

There is a large open area under the hillside, with a large area of ​​mounds of soil piles piled up, with many white water pipes inserted on it. Dongxiang River is only more than 300 meters away from the mound of water pipes, and dozens of water pipes extend from the mound to the riverside. Duan Chuanlin was taking pictures of the mound, and a villager came along the river. He saw Duan Chuanlin and said, "Comrade reporter, you are here again, why are you here alone? Be careful to be seen by the people from the gold mine?" He said, pointing at the closed mine gate.

"It's okay, I'm just here to see why no one produces it here."

The villagers said: "In recent days, many county cadres have come to close all the small gold mines along the river, saying that they want to be rectified."

"I really need to rectify it?" Duan Chuanlin looked at the scene, a little suspicious.

"It's been a lot of work, and it's not a complete work that time. Look at these rivers, you can take a bath before, but now you don't even dare to use farming." The villagers said again: "Those bosses are most afraid of you reporters. Don't take photos here. Be careful of danger. They are locked up in the mine and are very annoyed."

Duan Chuanlin saw a lot of colorful strips of cloth under the mound and said, "What is this for?"

The villagers said: "There are drainage ditches under the colored strips. After the ore is piled up, a water pipe is set up and washed with medicine. There is charcoal underneath, and the gold in the bucket is sucked up by the charcoal."

Duan Chuanlin looked at the scene and said, "That is, the mud is buried in the mound of gold, all of which are drained through the water pipe to wash gold. The potion flows into the river without treatment."

"That's it. The water is very dirty and smelly now."

As he was speaking, a few people came over from the mountain. The villager became nervous and said, "The people in the mine are here. Go away quickly and don't shoot here." He stepped apart, walked up the river channel, turned around the river, and disappeared.

Hou Weidong sat in the best position under the stage accompanied by the leaders of the Maoyun Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. In recent years, the Provincial Song and Dance Troupe has received support from the Provincial Government and built a large theater. The funds have also been tilted, and the performance tasks have been continuously carried out, and it has embarked on a virtuous cycle. Hou Weidong accompanied Zhou Changquan to watch the performances of the Provincial Song and Dance Troupe many times and is very familiar with the program.

While talking to Zhu Yan, he was enjoying the show.

Yan Zi is still dancing alone, this time she is her best sword dance. Under the stage lights, she is surrounded by a ball of sword light, like a tornado blowing leaves on the ground, which is dazzling. At the end, her movements slow down, and each move and moves are full of Tai Chi charm, and with gentle music, it is very eye-catching.

Hou Weidong looked at Yan Zi and couldn't help but think of Zhu Yingying in the past. Zhu Yingying was as beautiful as a flower and had amazing elasticity in her waist, but her choice was problematic. She followed Liu Mingming first and then Fang Jie, but now she is nowhere to be found. Looking at Yan Zi who is still active on the stage, thinking about Zhu Yingying who has encountered difficulties, she couldn't help but feel a little moved.

While feeling moved, the phone suddenly vibrated against his thighs. He picked up the phone casually and said, "Hey, hello, I am Hou Weidong, you are." The other party did not answer. He took it down and looked at the number. It was Duan Chuanlin's number.

Seeing Duan Chuanlin's number, Hou Weidong suddenly felt alert. He did not call back, but waited with his cell phone for a while. After a while, the cell phone rang again, and Hou Weidong quickly put the cell phone in his ear.

A faint scolding came from the phone.

"You bastard, you go to us to take a photo... I've got my mine locked up and you have to pay for it."

"I am a reporter, and the right to interview is given by the state... You are illegally detained."

"Give Hammer the right to interview, it's not OK to come to me to make trouble."

"I was invited by Zhu Yan, Secretary of the Maoyun Municipal Party Committee... Are you Dongxiang County Xiaojin Mine accepted by the Maoyun Municipal Party Committee leaders?"

"You kid brags."

Then there was a burst of tearing and scolding.

Hou Weidong understood that Duan Chuanlin was in danger and intended to convey the message.

When Zhu Yan heard about this, his smile disappeared immediately. He picked up his cell phone and immediately called the secretary of the Dongxiang County Party Committee. His voice was very strict and said, "I don't know which mine you are in now. You go along the Dongxiang River. Reporter Duan is a reporter of the Central Newspaper and is my guest. You must not make any mistakes, otherwise you will only ask."

Hou Weidong kept listening to the phone. After hearing a smacking sound, the phone suddenly had no information. He couldn't sit still and said, "I'm going to Dongxiang. Duan Chuanlin is my old friend, so there must be no accident."

"There is a particularly dangerous road in Dongxiang, don't go."

Hou Weidong said: "I can't sit still here, so I still have to go and take a look."

Zhu Yan did not stop him and said, "I won't go for the time being, listen to the news in Maoyun. Let Mayor Li take the comrades from the Public Security Bureau to accompany you. Don't drive, take Wang Bing's car."

When Lao Tu received the call, he first cursed, "These reporters are just dog skin plasters, and they can't escape once they are stuck." He is a veteran county party secretary. He knew the seriousness of beating a provincial newspaper reporter and dared not be careless. He immediately called the director of the Land and Resources Bureau to the office.

"You have a few gold mine owners in Yanhe, calling me one by one. Whoever moves the hand, get out of Dongxiang."
