Chang Ning's car did not drive in the direction of the county seat, but turned around and went straight to Qingzhou, he was afraid that Jiang Xi would be worried, so he deliberately lied to her that she wanted to go back to the county.

In the biggest political crisis since the founding of the People's Republic of China in Qingzhou, how could the figure of the little half-immortal Changning be missing.

Chang Ning guessed correctly, when midnight was approaching, the compound of the local party committee had returned to tranquility, as if nothing had happened, and on the left side of the gate under the lights, the signs symbolizing power and sacredness were so eye-catching and solemn even at night.

Ding Ying did not show any personal surprise at Chang Ning's return, and led him to the lounge on the third floor of the guest house.

More than a dozen county and city leaders, whether it is Zheng faction, or follow Liu Weiming, except for a few that Tian Fengshan allocated after his arrival, unanimously oppose fund-raising and apportionment, in addition to Liu Weiming, Liu Taiyuan, Gao Fei and Ma Taixing, who rose up, and later Luo Huaping, Minister of Propaganda of the Prefectural Party Committee, and Zhou Guofu, Minister of United Front Work, also expressed their opposition, although these two are not as fierce as Liu Weiming, but the former is a person trusted by Tian Fengshan, and the latter and Zheng Shicheng are brothers, and they are holding the big tree of the Zheng family. It is equivalent to completely shaking Tian Fengshan's confidence, and announced the dissolution of the meeting in anger, and after meeting with Mu Changhong and Zheng Shicheng, the three Zhengfu Ji took Xu Chongnian, the director of Zhengfu in the Development Zone, and Zhang Hongming, and hurried to Hucheng to move the rescuers overnight.

At the door of the lounge stood Liu Weiming's secret Guo Tengfei, seeing that it was Chang Ning, he was not surprised by the smile and smiled as a greeting, and after Chang Ning and Ding Ying entered, he closed the door again.

The small lounge was overcrowded, and the doors and windows were closed because the air conditioning was on, so that the cigarettes spit out from the men's mouths became diffuse, Liu Weiming sat in the middle with his eyebrows tightly locked, and Liu Taiyuan, the secretary of the Qingzhou Municipal Party Committee, and Gao Fei, the secretary of the Qingyang County Party Committee, on the left and right, the rest of the people were divided into two groups, sitting on the long sofas on the left and right sides and the temporary rattan chairs, Chang Ning had met, but many people's names could not be called for a while, and they counted in their hearts, in addition to the three members of the Standing Committee of the Prefectural Party Committee, he and Sister Ding and Guo Tengfei, there were eleven others, The anti-fundraising camp is not small.

The people in the room stopped talking, and their eyes were focused on Chang Ning, an uninvited guest.

Liu Weiming stared at Chang Ning and said, "Stinky boy, I knew that you wouldn't keep to yourself." ”

Chang Ning was not frightened, and said loudly: "Liu Ji, do you think I have too few officials, is my level enough?" I'm the one who pulls the road with your own hands, even if it doesn't work, but I'm still an understanding person. ”

At this time, Fang Tianzheng, the magistrate of Wanghai County, stood up, pulled Chang Ning and said: "Xiao Chang, the revolution has no age or rank, who dares to say you, come on, come, I will introduce you to a few leaders, and those you have dealt with will be exempted, this is Comrade Liu Taiyuan, member of the Standing Committee of the Prefectural Party Committee and secretary of the Qingzhou Municipal Party Committee." ”

Chang Ning held Liu Taiyuan's hand and said respectfully: "Liu Ji, hello, I have wanted to know you for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be tonight." ”

Liu Taiyuan smiled with a pun: "Little half-immortal Changning, the name has heard it early, it's just past midnight, it seems that the time is not too late." ”

Liu Taiyuan, 49 years old this year, a powerful figure in Qingzhou's political arena, known for his straightforward personality and tough skills, a native of Huilong County, Qingzhou Prefecture, a bachelor's degree graduate of Jiang Agricultural University in 1955, after entering the official career, has been taken care of by the old man Zheng, known as one of Zheng Zhi's irons, starting from the secret, staying in the prefectural party committee organs, emerging in Xianmen County to pay the county magistrate, all the way smoothly from the Standing Committee of the Qingzhou Municipal Party Committee, and finally survived to the current status.

Tonight can sit with the former rival Liu Weiming, Liu Taiyuan's heart is still sighing, after this toss, the future road, I am afraid that I can only follow in the footsteps of Gao Fei, away from the Zheng family and fight alone, he was originally opposed to the construction of the development zone, out of selfishness, the development zone from his own suburbs to dig out a piece of treasure land to stand on his own, has always been indignant, now not only has no benefit, but also to take money to support the construction of the development zone, of course he can't sit still, it turns out that because of the difference between the factions, didn't dare to vigorously support Liu Weiming, and when Old Man Zheng showed up to express his position, he became enthusiastic, took the case, and finally moved his ass to his brother Liu Weiming unconsciously.

Chang Ning thought to himself, no matter what he said, Liu Taiyuan is also a man, and it is a hero to be able to turn against Zheng Shicheng at a critical moment, and Zheng Yi lost the Qingzhou Municipal Party Committee, which is tantamount to a heavy blow.

People on both sides, in addition to Deng Zhijun, the county magistrate of Qingyang County, and Luo Hailong, the county magistrate of Longmen County, Fang Qiaoying, Fang Tianzheng introduced the other seven "heroes" in turn, four county party committee secretaries and three county magistrates, Chang Ning followed one by one to greet and shake hands, most of them are people close to Liu Weiming, who have met before, this is a formal introduction, Chang Ning is also very cordial, these people naturally came together because of Liu Weiming's personal charm, compared with the intention of the old man Zheng, there is an essential difference, not for selfish interests and strict same, Do not seek for public power.

Then, Fang Tianzheng specially pulled Chang Ning and sat in the position between Gao Fei and himself.

Liu Taiyuan looked at Chang Ning and said: "Xiao Chang, you came just in time, Commissioner Liu is going to Hucheng to report the situation in Qingzhou to the leaders of the provincial party committee, we are persuading him not to go for the time being, you can tell me, can Commissioner Liu go?" ”

Chang Ning groaned slightly, smiled and asked, "Liu Ji, Gao Ji, leaders, can you persuade Commissioner Liu?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

Liu Taiyuan was stunned, Xiao Banxian looked at the problem from a really different angle, nodded and said, "That's right, we can't persuade it." After a pause, he raised his voice and said, "Everyone knows that I, Liu Taiyuan, have never served Commissioner Liu in the past, but I am honest and honest, in my heart, I have always admired Commissioner Liu's personality, and it can be said that I know him very well. ”

Liu Weiming said: "Taiyuan, why are you suffering, you are still young, I don't want to affect you." ”

Liu Taiyuan said categorically: "Commissioner Liu, your surname is Liu, and my surname is Liu, in front of me, you are a senior, I don't persuade you, don't persuade me, I will be honored for a lifetime to be able to walk with you once." ”

Liu Weiming let out a long sigh and asked Chang Ning: "Xiao Chang, I remember when I was in Qingyang County, you told me that a famous quote by a gringo, how do you say it?" ”

"If I don't go to hell, who will."

Liu Weiming stood up, looked around, and said to Liu Taiyuan: "Taiyuan, let's also open up, learn from gringos, let's go." ”

Liu Taiyuan got up and smiled heartily, "Let's go." ”

Liu Weiming glanced at Chang Ning, turned around and walked out, "Comrades, you go back to rest, get up early tomorrow, and go back to the county for me, what should I do." ”

Guo Tengfei at the door choked up, "Commissioner Liu......"

Liu Weiming patted Guo Tengfei's arm and said with a smile: "Silly boy, after following me for two years, I am as afraid of my wife as I am, hehe, it's okay, it's okay, follow your wife back to Longmen, listen, you are now the county magistrate Fu under the county magistrate of Luo Jifang, it's not my Liu Weiming's secret, fuck, such a mother-in-law, Lao Tzu doesn't want to see you, I'll roll to Longmen Island as soon as it's dawn." ”

The spring door snapped and closed again, and the figures of the two old men surnamed Liu disappeared.

The dragons had no leader and naturally dispersed.

Luo Hailong pulled Deng Zhijun, accompanied Guo Tengfei home to pack his things, arranged a cart to carry furniture, and prepared to return to the county at dawn.

Gao Fei and Ding Ying, and Fang Qiaoying, the magistrate of Longmen County, lived in the same room, Chang Ning wanted to go back to the room where he used to live, but was pulled in by Gao Fei, and said in front of Fang Qiaoying: "Isn't it your birthday today, stay at home well, what are you doing when you come back?" Because she knew that Chang Ning's birthdays had not gone well over the years, and he was a person who believed in superstition, and the Shuiyang people had the custom of keeping their homes on birthdays, so they showed the true side of women despite Fang Qiaoying's presence.

Chang Ning smiled, "Gao Ji, it's June 7th, my birthday has passed early, besides, anyway, every year's birthday is forked, and I'm not afraid of one more time this year." ”

Fang Qiaoying didn't pay attention to the details between the two, and congratulated Changning with a smile.

Chang Ning simply sat on Gao Fei's bed, unceremoniously lit a cigarette and smoked it, "Three leaders, in fact, you don't have to worry too much, the two leaders surnamed Liu are going to the provincial capital, it is a work report of the normal procedure, there must be no danger, a small detail of this turmoil determines the final outcome, it must be each fifty boards, or both lose." ”

Ding Ying asked, "What details?" ”

"Alas, it is said that you women are delicate and exquisite, I don't think so, all the people who attended the meeting tonight, including the three of you, do not know the true face of Lushan, only because they are in this mountain, you think about it, the planning, establishment, construction, etc. of the development zone are all decided by the Standing Committee of the local party committee, but the fund-raising plan of the development zone is made in the name of the development zone management committee, that is to say, from yesterday's meeting to last night's temporary standing committee, they are all pulling fiber for the development zone management committee, hehe, Tian Fengshan was either dazed, or he took it for granted, and the conclusions reached by the three Zhengfu Ji when they met dared to force it out in the name of the Standing Committee, think about it, is this a big loophole? ”

Fang Qiaoying said: "Yes, the level of the development zone is on a par with our counties and cities, why does it want us to help raise funds and make money?" ”

Gao Fei smiled, "Details determine success or failure, it is rumored that Tian Ji's style of doing things is rough, sure enough, Xiao Chang, when you got the document the day before yesterday, you saw this loophole." ”

Chang Ning leaned on the head of the bed and said with a wicked smile: "Hehe, your leaders are in charge of big things, and we have to look for the loopholes below." ”
