Chapter 214 [The County Party Secretary’s Confusion]

When Zhang Yang left the hot spring resort, he received a call from the county mayor Sha Puyuan. He invited Zhang Yang to go to Jinkaiyue for dinner in the evening. Zhang Yang was a little surprised that he had never had much dealing with Sha Puyuan, so he had a purpose in treating himself to dinner.

Zhang Yang was not afraid of others having a purpose, but was afraid that others would be impure in their motives. After considering it, he decided to attend the banquet. Today, the Chunxigu Hot Spring incident made him realize that Chunyang County was no longer the time for Qin Qing to serve as the county party secretary, and the new county party secretary Zhu Heng seemed very disobedient.

County Mayor Sha Puyuan invited Zhang Yang to dinner and made a decision after careful consideration. Although he did not go to Chunxigu site, he also learned about what happened there from other channels. Even the county party secretary Zhu Heng and Zhang Yang knew clearly at the meeting that the Communist Party cadres were best at uniting all friends who could be united. The purpose was to attack all opponents who could be attacked.

From the moment Zhu Heng came to Chunyang as the county party secretary, Shapuyuan regarded him as the opponent who should be hit the most, because Shapuyuan believed that he should have been sitting in the secretary position, but now Zhu Heng has snatched his position. This is the most intolerable thing for a cadre who actively demands progress. I ask for progress, but you blocked my path to progress. I don’t hate you, who do I hate?

Shapuyuan's grasp of information is accurate and sensitive. Among the fifteen people Lin Xiu resigned, there was actually one of his acquaintances. He was not angry, but was a little surprised. He knew that Zhu Heng had arranged three acquaintances in it. From Lin Xiu's approach, it can be seen that Lin Xiu was extremely dissatisfied with the leaders of Chunyang County, and this dissatisfaction was not concealed at all and revealed it in the most direct way.

Shapuyuan chose Jin Kaiyue to have dinner because he had been very close to Deputy County Magistrate Xu Zhaobin recently. Xu Zhaobin often invited him to dinner. After a while, Shapuyuan and Niu Wenqiang were also familiar with each other, so he naturally knew that Zhang Yang and Niu Wenqiang's deep friendship. Choosing to eat in Zhang Yang's friend's shop can show his sincerity. In short, Shapuyuan was very thoughtful.

When Zhang Yang came to Jinkaiyue parking lot, he found that his second brother Zhao Liwu was standing there. When he saw his car coming, Zhang Yang parked the car, pushed open the car door and walked down, and smiled and said, "Second brother, are you waiting for me?"

Zhao Liwu nodded and said, "Mr. Niu asked me to wait for you!"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Second brother, how are your parents in good health?"

"fine!"

Zhang Yang saw that Zhao Liwu seemed to have something to worry about and smiled and said, "You are not doing anything, right? Just say it clearly, don't hesitate!" Zhao Liwu nodded and said, "It's something. My elder brother got drunk and was brought in to fight with someone last night!"

Zhang Yang glared at him dissatisfiedly and said, "Why did you say that?"

Zhao Liwu said embarrassedly: "I just received the notice and was about to contact you, but you came by chance!"

Zhang Yang took out his cell phone and called Du Yufeng from Chengguan Town Police Station. When Du Yufeng heard that it was Zhang Yang's second brother's affairs, he immediately agreed. He would do this matter without Zhang Yang's concern.

Zhang Yang was quite helpless with these two brothers. Both of them had no ability. Zhao Liwu was fine. He was a legitimate job as a security manager in Jin Kaiyue. His eldest brother Zhao Lijun is so old that he only drinks and fights with others all day long. It is really helpless. When he has the opportunity, he still has to find a legitimate thing for him to do.

When he walked into Jin Kaiyue, Niu Wenqiang was standing on the other side of the fish pond. He saw Zhang Yang smiling and greeting him: "I just got into a crocodile, try it?"

Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "That thing is not delicious, it's just a gimmick, to coax people!"

Niu Wenqiang nodded and said, "County Magistrate Sha has just arrived and is sitting in the Sihai Hall!" After saying that, Niu Wenqiang added, "He came alone!"

Zhang Yang smiled and came to the banquet alone from Shapuyuan. He was even more convinced that Shapuyuan had a purpose in finding him. He patted Niu Wenqiang on the shoulder and said, "Don't bother us if you're okay!"

Niu Wenqiang said: "Are you leaving tonight? Go back and call me and some brothers here to accompany you to have a happy life!"

"I won't leave!" Zhang Yang walked towards the Sihai Hall after saying that.

The person who can make Shapuyuan wait is either higher than him or useful to him, and Zhang Yang obviously belongs to the latter.

The cold dishes were already served. There was a bottle of Wuliangye stored in the cellar for twenty years on the table. Shapuyuan had a poor alcohol content, but he knew that Zhang Yang could drink very well, so he specially prepared two kilograms of wine. County Magistrate Sha would not fight a battle without any confidence.

Zhang Yang smiled and shook hands with Sha Puyuan and said, "Mr. Sha is so polite. I feel guilty for treating me to a meal!"

Shapuyuan smiled and said, "We are old friends, and we have never had the opportunity to sit down. It happened to be a matter of trouble. Although it was not a good thing, we got us together after all." He didn't say anything, but just used this vague way to narrow the distance between each other. Zhang Yang also understood people. Most of the time people don't have to ask the bottom of the matter, nor do they need to understand clearly. Didn't Zheng Banqiao, the Qing Dynasty, just said that it was rare to be confused?

However, these two were not confused. Shapuyuan also knew that there was no need to pretend to be confused in front of Zhang Yang. After drinking three glasses of wine, Shapuyuan opened up the conversation. He smiled and said, "The matter of the hot spring resort was very unpleasant. This has a direct relationship with the inadequate work of our county party committee and government. At that time, the Bening Group was brought to Chunyang by Director Zhang and Secretary Qin. The predecessors planted trees and later took advantage of the cool air. Unfortunately, we didn't even do a good job of enjoying the cool air!" Shapuyuan was on the surface of representing Chunyang County for the review, but in fact he pointed to the county party secretary Zhu Heng.

Zhang Yang heard it. He was not interested in the conflict between Shapuyuan and Zhu Heng, nor did he want to intervene. However, the matter of Chunxigu Hot Spring Resort was related to Chu Yanran. He could not ignore it. Zhang Yang slowly dropped his wine glass and said: "County Magistrate Sha, you should be clear about Chunyang's past investment promotion situation. You have also experienced the whole process of Benin Group's investment in Chunyang. Now that people have invested money, we can't turn against each other. If this matter is spread, who is willing to invest in Chunyang?"

Shapuyuan sighed and said, "Secretary Zhu's many ways of doing it are very different from Secretary Qin." The ambiguousness between Zhang Yang and Qin Qing almost knew in the Chunyang system that Shapuyuan said this sentence intentionally instigated him.

Zhang Yang did not have much affection for Zhu Heng, and he whispered: "I will truthfully report this to the city! The matter of Chunxigu Hot Spring is not just that the investors do not communicate enough with the local people. Should the Chunyang County Government also review its work? If the interests of investors are not guaranteed, what else should we talk about attracting investment in the future? What else should we talk about revitalizing the economy?"

Shapuyuan said: "I will ask the county standing committee members to discuss this matter to prevent similar incidents from happening again..." He paused and said: "But it depends on Secretary Zhu's attitude!"

Zhang Yang smiled. Shapuyuan was obviously extremely dissatisfied with Zhu Heng. He wanted to find a suitable gun. Zhang Daren saw that he didn't mind being a gunman, but it depends on his mood.

Zhang Yang remembered the thing Yu Xiaodong mentioned to him and took the opportunity to ask Shapuyuan for the conditions. Don’t you want me to help you deal with Zhu Heng? You have to help me do something. Zhang Yang said that Yu Xiaodong wanted to stay in Beijing and continue to serve as the head teacher of Chunyang in Beijing.

After hearing this, Shapuyuan couldn't help but look embarrassed. He whispered: "Director Zhang, you said it's too late. Now it has been decided. Liang Zai and the position to replace Yu Xiaodong."

"Which beam is in harmony?"

"In the past, the driver of the tax bureau is now in the county investment promotion office. He is Secretary Zhu's cousin!"

Zhang Yang smiled disdainfully and said, "He! What else can he do besides driving? Paralyzed, isn't this nepotism?"

Shapuyuan smiled and said nothing, and he found that he had finally found the angry point of Zhang Daren.

Zhang Yang picked up the wine glass and drank it all: "County Magistrate Sha, you have to do this for me, and I won't hide it from you. I promised Xiaodong, and I must do what I promised to others."

Shapuyuan said: "I have no objection. Yu Xiaodong's work is also very good, but now Secretary Zhu is the top leader of Chunyang, and Liang Zaihe is his person. If I reject his decision, it seems that it is not appropriate."

Zhang Yang became disgusted with Shapuyuan's blind instigation. Damn, don't you just want me to fight Zhu Heng? Even if I beat Zhu Heng, it's not your turn. Zhang Yang rarely talks, and the scene became awkward. Shapuyuan thought he had successfully aroused Zhang Yang's anger and was about to continue to take advantage of the situation. Zhang Yang yawned and said, "I'm sleepy, County Magistrate Sha, we'll drink so much, I have to go home."

Shapuyuan did not try to keep him, and went out with Zhang Yang, signed the bill and left.

Zhang Yang did not go far, but came directly to Karaoke, the god of love that Niu Wenqiang drove opposite him. Zhao Xinwei and Du Yufeng were singing inside. Both of them were incomplete tone, and the private room was crying and howling.

Zhang Yang turned off the music when he walked in.

Du Yufeng cursed: "Damn! Isn't it a disappointment?"

Zhang Yang picked up a bottle of beer, pushed his thumb, opened the beer cover very casually, and took a big mouthful before saying, "Where is Niu Wenqiang?"

While speaking, Niu Wenqiang came in from outside the door and smiled and said, "Director Zhang, how about the senior meeting with County Mayor Sha tonight?"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "The top leader? I'm paralyzed. I'm just trying to make trouble for an old fox!"

All three of them came over, and everyone had the gossip. As Chunyang people, they were still very interested in what happened in Chunyang.

Zhang Yang did not tell them the details of his meeting with Shapuyuan, and whispered: "How is Zhu Heng like this?"

The one with the most say among the three is Niu Wenqiang. He is the director of the Finance Bureau, so he has more contact with Zhu Heng, so Niu Wenqiang has more information about it. Niu Wenqiang said: "He and Li Changyu are middle school classmates. His role as the secretary of Chunyang County Party Committee is also the result of Li Changyu's strong recommendation. What? Don't you know?"

Zhang Yang was stunned. He really didn't know that Zhu Heng and Li Changyu had this relationship. Li Changyu was really true. Before he came to Chunyang, he went to say hello to him because of the hot spring village, but he didn't show any verbal expression to himself. Damn, why has this old Li become more and more sinister recently?

Niu Wenqiang said: "This person still has some tricks, but he seems to like to use classmates, relatives, and friends. Within a few days of coming to Chunyang, a large number of cadres have been promoted, all of which have something to do with him. Why are you asking?"

Zhang Yang told him about Yu Xiaodong's begging him.

Niu Wenqiang smiled and said, "Yu Xiaodong is pretty good!"

Zhang Yang glared at him fiercely. What does this guy mean by saying this?

Niu Wenqiang then said: "You and Yu Xiaodong have been in Beijing for so long, of course you have a relationship!"

Zhang Yang cursed: "Fuck, don't insult my personality!"

When talking about personality, all three people in the room laughed at the same time.

Zhao Xinwei said: "I believe in Director Zhang's personality. When I was in Beijing, Miss Gu and Miss Chu took turns to investigate the post. Director Zhang even wanted to degenerate, but there was no chance of degenerate."

Du Yufeng smiled so hard that he leaned back and forth.

"A bunch of bitches!" Zhang Yang cursed viciously.

Zhao Xinwei said: "Just on the matter, I think Zhu Heng asked Liang Zaihe to replace Yu Xiaodong not to target you. He just wants to use his own people, and I will do this."

Zhang Yang said: "I promised Yu Xiaodong that this must be done."

Niu Wenqiang said: "I think you'd better not go to Zhu Heng, so just call Li Changyu directly and ask him to come forward. I don't believe that Zhu Heng dares not give him this face."

After Zhang Yang thought about it carefully, Niu Wenqiang's words made sense. He looked for Zhu Heng directly. Zhu Heng might not give him such face. If there was a conflict, wouldn't it be just accusing Shapuyuan of his intentions and was still very unhappy to be exploited. Zhang Yang did what he said and immediately called the Executive Vice Mayor Li Changyu. For Li Changyu, this was just a trivial matter, but he did not agree immediately. After all, he was not clear about the specific situation. Li Changyu was a cautious person, and he had to ask the situation clearly before talking. However, Li Changyu promised Zhang Yang to try his best to do it. In Zhang Yang's opinion, there was no problem with this matter. No matter how bold Zhu Heng was, he dared not to give Li Changyu face.

Things are often unexpected. Zhang Yang was about to leave Chunyang the next morning, and he received a call from Yu Xiaodong. Yu Xiaodong cried very sadly. The county organization department had notified her to complete the work handover at the end of the month. Liang Zaihe, the new director of Chunyang's Beijing Office, will go to Beijing to take over her work in the near future.

Zhang Yang became angry when he heard this. He had said hello to Li Changyu last night. Didn’t he tell Zhu Heng about this? He wanted to call Li Changyu and ask, but after thinking about it, it seemed that it was not appropriate. Li Changyu didn’t understand it. Just when Zhang Yang was angry, County Mayor Sha Puyuan called him, and Sha Puyuan’s voice seemed quite helpless: “Director Zhang, I went to find Secretary Zhu about the matter you told me, and I mentioned you too. He said that the organization had been decided and had notified Liang Zaihe to take office in Beijing.”

Zhang Yang put down the phone without saying a word. Of course, he knew that Shapuyuan was still provoking discord, but whether there was Shapuyuan fanning the flames or not, the anger of Zhang Daren was already burning. His dissatisfaction with Zhu Heng, secretary of Chunyang County Party Committee, originated from the hot spring village incident. Zhu Heng's inaction was seen by him. Later, from Lin Xiu, he learned that Zhu Heng had stuffed three acquaintances into the hot spring resort. In Zhang Yang's opinion, this guy is a typical type of person who only knows how to get benefits and does not give people practical things. There is one thing that Shapuyuan should not lie to him. He should have mentioned himself to Zhu Heng. Zhu Heng clearly knew that Yu Xiaodong was his Zhang Yang's relationship, and he did this, but he would not give him face at all.

Zhang Yang impulsively wanted to call Li Changyu to question Li Changyu, but he remembered the relationship between Li Changyu and Zhu Heng. If Li Changyu pleaded for Zhu Heng, he would not be able to provoke a riot. If you, Deputy Mayor Li, cannot do this well, I will do it myself. I don’t care whether he is your classmate or something. I want to give him a face, but he doesn’t want it.

Zhu Heng is the county party secretary. Zhang Yang can't rush into the county party secretary's office and punch and kick this guy like others. In that case, it will make him lose his qualities and cause extremely bad political influence. Zhang Daren has suffered such a loss on Hu Guanghai once. He has deeply realized that beating people is a rough job, and he will never take action easily until necessary.

Zhang Yang called the acting mayor Zuo Ai Korea. Zuo Ai Korea was listening to a report on the progress of the development zone construction. When he saw Zhang Yang's phone call, he temporarily interrupted his listening, which fully demonstrated his importance to Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang did nothing else. He just reported the incident that happened at Chunxigu Hot Spring Resort yesterday, and then stuffed three acquaintances into the county party secretary Zhu Heng. He did not add fuel to the fire. These were all things Zhu Heng did himself, so he had to admit it.

The first thing Zuo Yuanchao thought of was why Zhang Yang didn't go to find Li Changyu and found himself? He still had some understanding of the situation of Zhu Heng, the secretary of Chunyang County Party Committee, and knew that Zhu Heng and Li Changyu were middle school classmates. Is it because of this reason that Li Changyu was unwilling to help Zhang Yang stand up? He believed that Zhang Yang would definitely not be himself. After all, Li Changyu was the deputy mayor in charge of tourism. This matter was big or small, and he, the acting mayor, didn't need to personally inquire about it. However, since Zhang Yang found him, it proved that Li Changyu did not help Zhang Yang handle this problem well.

Zuo Yuanchao was happy from the bottom of his heart. Zhang Yang was able to take the initiative to find him, showing from another level that his grudges about his past have basically been eliminated. This is a great opportunity to increase the relationship between the two. Zuo Yuanchao whispered: "Xiao Zhang, the situation you reported is very important. I will ask about this matter!"

After Zuo Yuanchao hung up the phone, he immediately called Zhu Heng, secretary of Chunyang County Party Committee. Zuo Yuanchao's accountability was simple and direct: "Comrade Zhu Heng, I want you to explain to me what happened to Chunxigu Hot Spring Resort yesterday."

Zhu Heng was mentally prepared for the incident to be reported to the city sooner or later, and he also reported to Li Changyu in advance. However, he still did not expect that the acting mayor Zuo Yuanchao would call him in person. Zhu Heng explained respectfully: "Mayor Zuo, that's the case..." Before he finished speaking, Zuo Yuanchao interrupted him: "I heard that you have arranged a lot of relatives to the hot spring resort!"

Zhu Heng felt a little nervous. He understood that Zuo Yuanchao was unhappy with him. Zhu Heng said: "Mayor Zuo..."

"Let's talk about it later. I'm going to hold an office meeting soon. I'll be free at four o'clock in the afternoon!" Zuo Yuanchao said coldly. He didn't give Zhu Heng a chance to explain. He hung up the phone. This is the power of the official. I'm older than you, so I have to suppress you. The more you want to explain to me, the more I don't listen. I make you stumble and make you restless. This is not counting. I have to torment you. When I have time at four o'clock in the afternoon, you have to come to me obediently and report to me. I asked you to explain to me in person. Zuo Yuanchao interrupted Zhu Heng twice, hung up the phone once, and three actions were completely trapped by Zhu Heng in a passive manner. This is a skill. This technique can only be effective if the superiors use it on the subordinates.

Zhu Heng, secretary of Chunyang County Party Committee, was obviously shocked by acting mayor Zuo Yuanchao. He wanted to explain, but there was no chance to explain, but the words Zuo Yuanchao finally threw them to him meant that he would explain in person. Zhu Heng must go. After looking at the time, it was only ten o'clock in the morning. From now until six hours from 4 o'clock in the afternoon, he was destined to spend the torture.

Zhang Yang didn't go to Zhu Heng, he chose to go to Liang Zaihe. He knew that the story of Tian Ji's horse racing was that the top was against the middle, the middle was against the lower, and I couldn't suppress you Zhu Heng at the administrative level. I was more than enough to deal with Liang Zaihe, such a small shrimp.

Liang Zaihe is still staying in Chunyang Investment Promotion Office. In the past two days, he is proud of his promotion to the director of Chunyang’s Beijing Office. He now believes that people will be lucky, just for a while. From an ordinary driver from the Taxation Bureau to a deputy director of the Investment Promotion Office to a deputy section level, and then continue to serve as a driver, the arrival of his cousin Zhu Heng finally ignited hope for his career. Now he has become the director of Chunyang’s Beijing Office with satisfaction. The Organization Department has issued a notice. I will deliver the work of the Investment Promotion Office in the past two days and you can go to Beijing immediately.

While Liang Zaihe was accepting congratulations in the office, Zhang Yang appeared outside his door.

Seeing Zhang Yang, Liang Zaihe was a little confused. He didn't know why Zhang Yang found him. Since Zhang Yang left Chunyang, he had never had any contact with him. Now Zhang Yang, who is the deputy director of Jiangcheng Enterprise Reform Office, came to him again. What did he do? Liang Zaihe didn't know that Zhang Yang was going to stand up for Yu Xiaodong, but he could guess that there was nothing good because Zhang Yang never liked him.

Liang Zaihe still politely invited Zhang Yang in. Zhang Yang narrowed his eyes and looked at Liang Zaihe's office environment, and whispered: "Not bad!"

Liang Zaihe poured Zhang Yang a glass of water and sent it to him: "Director Zhang has something to do with me?"

Zhang Yang nodded: "I want you to turn off the position of director of Chunyang's Beijing Office!"

At first, Liang Zaihe thought he had heard it wrong. There was such a ridiculous thing in the world. He actually advised him to resign the official position he had! Although Liang Zaihe was a little awe of Zhang Yang, it was when Zhang Yang was the deputy director of the investment promotion office in Chunyang. Now you are a cadre of the Jiangcheng Enterprise Reform Office. From what aspect, you can't control me? Liang Zaihe smiled and said, "I don't understand what Director Zhang means. It's an organizational decision for me to be the director of Chunyang's Beijing Office!" The implication is that it has nothing to do with you.
To be continued...
