Chapter 215 [Happiness and Mourning]

The reason why Zhang Yang didn’t go to Li Changyu was because he had no intention of resolving this matter peacefully. Aren’t you Zhu Heng awesome? I let you know that Chunyang, you can’t cover up the sky with one hand and don’t give me face. You are my enemy!

Li Changyu still had a clear understanding of Zhang Yang's temper and personality. He realized that because of his negligence, Zuo Yuanchao was a good person this time. Putting aside other things, Zhu Heng, the old classmate, did not do beautiful things in the Chunxi Valley Hot Spring Resort. He not only offended the investors, but also offended Zhang Yang. Li Changyu could not see Zhu Heng continue to make mistakes. He had to wake up the old classmate. Li Changyu said: "As the secretary of the Chunyang County Party Committee, don't you know the background of the hot spring resort center, right?"

Zhu Heng said: "I know that when the investment of the Benin Consortium in the United States, Lin Xiu is the specific executor of the investment, and her husband is the director of the Jingshan Municipal Public Security Bureau."

Li Changyu smiled bitterly and said, "Lin Xiu is just a general manager, and the real boss is Chu Yanran!"

Zhu Heng was slightly stunned. He had been in Chunyang for a short time and was still unfamiliar with this name.

Li Changyu explained: "Chu Yanran is Governor Song's daughter and Zhang Yang's girlfriend. You really don't know about this?"

Zhu Heng was stunned. He didn't know about this. At the beginning, he thought that Zhang Yang was meddling in other people's business. Why did the deputy director of Jiangcheng Enterprise Reform Office make a point to Chunyang's affairs? But after Li Changyu revealed the mystery, he discovered that he had indeed violated Zhang Yang's interests first.

Li Changyu said: "The hot spring resort incident has alarmed the city leaders, and the investors have also complained about your work attitude. You should think carefully after you go back and review yourself!"

Zhu Heng nodded: "I know what to do!"

After Zhu Heng left, Li Changyu thought about it and called Zhang Yang. Zhu Heng was his old classmate after all, and he didn't want Zhang Yang to continue making trouble in this matter. If the matter was big, it would not be a good thing for Zhu Heng, who had just taken office.

Zhang Yang had already expected that Li Changyu would call him, but he still showed a very polite expression in his words: "Doctor Li is asking me for something?" At work, it is normal for Zhang Yang to call him like this, and Li Changyu didn't feel too much surprise. He said with a smile: "Zhang Yang, I heard about Chunxi Valley Hot Spring Resort. I criticized Comrade Zhu Heng just now. You also know that it is inevitable that some mistakes at work are inevitable. Anyway, it is not a big deal. In my opinion, it is better not to pursue it!"

Zhang Yang laughed: "Deputy Mayor Li, it's not that I want to pursue this matter now. I am the investor of the hot spring resort. It's not big, and there is no mistake in principle. But it involves a basic respect issue. It's good for me to come to Chunyang to invest. We always say that we should treat others as VIPs, but what's the reality? If I didn't arrive in time, if Secretary Liu had not led the villagers of Shangqinghe Village to help, I'm afraid Chunxigu Hot Spring Resort would be demolished by those people in Zhu Xiaoqiao Village before it opened. I really don't know that Zhu Heng is your classmate. If I knew, I might have saved him some face."

Li Changyu smiled and said, "I'm emotional!" He had already noticed that Zhang Yang's tone was a little wrong today.

Zhang Yang said: "I have no emotions. To be honest, I haven't taken him seriously yet. Face is mutual. I want to give him a face, but they don't respect me. Deputy Mayor Li, I understand what you mean. I just pretend that I don't know him. I don't care about him as a person, but I can't control other people's affairs."

Li Changyu thought to himself, you guys play this trick with me, you don’t pursue it, but without your instructions, how could Lin Xiu sue the Jiangcheng Municipal Government? Li Changyu felt a little uncomfortable. Zhu Heng was his person after all. Zhang Yang took the initiative to pursue it to the end this time, and he didn’t say much, whispered: “Zhang Yang, think carefully, internal unity is very important!”

Zhang Yang did not take Li Changyu's words seriously. People like Zhu Heng were not worthy of his unity. If Zhu Heng was more proactive in the incident of Chunxigu Hot Spring Resort, and if Zhu Heng gave him face in Yu Xiaodong's affairs, perhaps his relationship with Zhu Heng would go to a completely different level, but now they are in an opposite direction. Zhang Yang did not personally deal with Zhu Heng. The complaint from Lin Xiu to the county party secretary alone would be enough for him to drink. Zhang Daguan gradually realized a truth that it is not necessary to deal with a person himself. Beating someone is the most direct way of punishment, but it is not the most effective.

The incident of the villagers of Zhu Xiaoqiao Village besieging Chunxigu Hot Spring Resort was still placed in the Municipal Standing Committee for discussion. This incident was characterized as the first investor rights protection incident in Jiangcheng.

After several members of the Standing Committee expressed their indignation, the Municipal Party Committee Secretary Hong Weiji spoke. He raised the official condemnation statement of Benin Group and fell heavily on the table: "I don't know shame! What's the difference between using power to arrange your relatives? What's the difference between this and a robber? Some of our cadres can't tell the difference between public and private affairs at all. Who gave the power in your hands? It's the country! It's the common people. If you don't do things for the common people steadily, you just want to use your power to get benefits. You are an incompetent cadre and not a good party member."

Seeing Hong Weiji get angry, everyone is silent. No one wants to answer at this time, and no one wants to bring the firepower to themselves.

Hong Weiji lit a cigarette and took a sip and said, "There are many people who told me that Comrade Zhu Heng did not make any principled mistakes. Just criticize him for a few words to realize his mistakes. This made me see that it is not a few people who have this wrong concept. Everyone present dares to pat their chests and say to me that they have never used their power to their relatives and gain benefits for their families? Who dares?"

Still no one spoke, Hong Weiji's majestic gaze glanced at everyone, he was waiting.

After about thirty seconds of silence, Li Changyu finally broke the silence. He felt that he needed to say a few words. This was not only because Zhu Heng was his classmate, nor because tourism was in charge. This involved his political group in Jiangcheng facing a storm. As the leader of this group, Li Changyu had to make a statement. He unexpectedly did not smoke today. When he was in the Standing Committee, he and Hong Weiji were the two largest cigarette guns. When he didn't smoke, Li Changyu would always feel that

He felt itchy and uncomfortable when his throat was itchy. He coughed and said, "Secretary Hong, all members of the Standing Committee, we should see the real cause of the Chunxigu Hot Spring Resort incident. I think the main reason is that the investors and Chunyang government, investors and local people are not fully communicated. The fundamental reason is that this has a lot to do with culture and worldview. For example, if you take US dollars to buy soy milk and fried dough sticks on the street, the vendor may not be willing to sell it to you, so if you want him to accept it, you must exchange it and exchange it for RMB."

Acting mayor Zuo Yuanchao laughed, and he interrupted Li Changyu without hesitation and said: "Comrade Changyu's example sounds very reasonable, but when you think about it carefully, you are changing the concept and diverting the contradiction."

Li Changyu looked at Zuo Ai and Chao calmly: "Mayor Zuo, is it necessary to divert the conflict?"

Zuo Yuanchao said loudly: "We Communists are not afraid of something, but afraid of not taking responsibility. I have investigated the entire process of Chunxigu Hot Spring Resort very clearly. If it weren't for Zhang Yang, deputy director of the Investment Promotion Office, arrived at the scene in time, if it weren't for him using the mass foundation he had accumulated when he worked in Heishanzi Township, the people of Zhu Xiaoqiao Village would have smashed the hot spring center. If that really happened, let alone the Chunyang County Party Committee and County Government, the leadership of our entire Jiangcheng would have to

Being held accountable! I said this not because I was afraid of responsibility, but because I was angry. As the secretary of the Chunyang County Party Committee, Zhu Heng had no influence in the local area and had no response to emergency incidents. His ability cannot be questioned. How were such cadres selected? "The Zuo Yuan Dynasty no longer concealed it, and directly pointed the finger at Li Changyu. Everyone knows that Zhu Heng became the secretary of the Chunyang County Party Committee under the recommendation of Li Changyu. Zuo Yuan Dynasty accused him of Li Changyu.

Li Changyu said: "It seems that Mayor Zuo is not completely clear about the situation at that time. The county public security bureau dispatched fifty police officers in time and arrived at the hot spring resort when something happened. We cannot just see other people's shortcomings and ignore their work."

Zuo Yuanchao threw a piece of material on the table: "This is the detailed information about the situation on that day by Shao Weijiang, the director of Chunyang County Public Security Bureau. Shao Weijiang rushed to the scene after receiving a call from the investor representative Lin Xiu. Here I would like to emphasize that Lin Xiu chose to use his personal relationship to find Shao Weijiang when he called the police without any response and had no choice but to find Shao Weijiang! As the secretary of the county party committee, Zhu Heng, when he made the first call to Shao Weijiang, the situation was already under control. This is his job? This is his reaction speed?"

Zhao Yanglin, director of the National People's Congress, took the lead in slapping the table: "This kind of cadre is simply a slander for our Jiangcheng!"

Li Changyu realized that the atmosphere today was getting worse and wrong. Zuo Aidong was definitely ready to fight. He was taking advantage of this opportunity to maximize the impact of the Chunxi Valley Hot Spring incident.

Zuo Yuanchao then played his second card: "I also heard about one thing. When something happened in the hot spring resort, Comrade Zhu Heng was inspecting agricultural production. But as far as I can tell, he was burning incense in the ancient temple of Chunyangming. Do you don't believe it? There are his signature on the merit book. Some things you don't want others to know, so it's best not to do. If you do it, you have to be brave enough to take responsibility!"

All the Standing Committee members couldn't help it. Although burning incense is not a big deal, many of the Standing Committee members who attended the meeting have burned incense today, but Zhu Heng obviously chose the right time to burn incense this time. First, you chose the working hours for burning incense, and second, you burn incense. You shouldn't be under the banner of investigating agricultural production. Third, why did you go to burn incense when something happened in Chunxigu Hot Spring Resort? In short, you are seeking death by yourself.

Li Changyu didn't know much about what Zuo Yuanchao said, so he was caught off guard today. If he insisted that Zhu Heng's mistake was just a small problem, I'm afraid all the members of the Standing Committee would attack him in groups. But Li Changyu still insisted that Zhang Yang had initiated this matter. Zuo Yuanchao used this matter to sound the horn of the attack, leaving him completely in a passive situation. Li Changyu finally took out a cigarette and put it between his lips, but did not light it immediately. He whispered: "I admit that this matter is because my work is not meticulous enough, and I lack attention to hot spring resorts, which led to this situation today."

Municipal Party Secretary Hong Weiji sighed and said, "Comrade Changyu, you are indeed responsible, but if you are a child, you have no reason to kill someone. Your parents will take the blame. This time, the matter of the hot spring resort must be dealt with seriously!"

Everyone in the Chunyang County Party Committee and the County Government saw that Secretary Zhu was in a bad mood. In the afternoon, he heard the sound of a cup falling from his office. The County Party Committee Secretary was angry. Although his crime would not be removed from office this time, the city has decided to give him a warning within the party. Zhu Heng is not a fool. He understands who the reason he has fallen to this point. Lin Xiu sued him was Zhang Yang's instructing him. Li Changyu defended him, but Zhang Yang wanted to make him do not need Li Changyu at all.

The reason why Zhu Heng threw the cup was Zhang Yang's phone number. After confirming that Zhu Heng was warned by the party, Zhang Yang sprinkled salt into his wounds. He told Zhu Heng in a gloating tone on the phone that it would be best to reconsider Yu Xiaodong's matter.

Zhang Yang hung up the phone and Zhu Heng threw the cup. He was so fucking bullying.

But Zhu Heng immediately discovered that there were some things that could not be allowed to do, such as Liang Zaihe suddenly became ill and could not get out of bed. He was so ill that he offered not to go to the Chunyang Beijing office. Compared with the official position, Liang Zaihe valued life more. Zhang Daguanren's words were punished by God, which scared him and his liver trembled.

Zhu Heng thought about finding another person to fill the gap and let Yu Xiaodong come back, but he just thought about it. The person who can ascend to the position of county party secretary is definitely not a fool. Zhu Heng knew the consequences of being irritable. Liang Zaihe was sick, and he happened to take back his past decision and let Yu Xiaodong continue to stay in the position of director of the Beijing Office.

Zhu Heng was very depressed and wronged. He couldn't figure out how he, a county-level cadre, could be played with by a young deputy department-level cadre? He called his old classmate Li Changyu and wanted to express his grievances.

But after Li Changyu answered the phone, he only said seven words: "Stop talking, I'm annoyed!"

Li Changyu was indeed very annoyed. When he answered the phone, he was presided over a meeting on the reform of the education system. From top to bottom, he was called poor and wanted to ask the city for money. He was the deputy mayor, not the God of Wealth. Jiangcheng's financial situation was not good at first. Now most of the funds are invested in the development zone, so other places are naturally struggling. Li Changyu mentioned education reform again. Now many places in China have started to run private schools. He thinks this is a fresh idea.

But many people have put forward different opinions. Most people believe that education is education and should not be mixed with too many things, especially the economy. If teachers are directly linked to economic interests, then who can guarantee that the campus is a pure land in the future?

Just when the discussion was at the most intense time, Li Changyu received a call from home. His sister-in-law, Mrs. Su, had suddenly worsened and was sent to the hospital. He hurriedly ended the meeting and rushed to the hospital. On the way, he called Zhang Yang. In Li Changyu's heart, he was the most trustworthy of Zhang Yang's medical skills.

Zhang Yang was also rushing to the hospital, and Ge Chunli had called the old lady on the way to the hospital.

He and Li Changyu rushed to the hospital. The old lady suddenly had a heart attack. When they arrived at the ward, she had already passed away.

Li Changyu didn't have time to say the last sentence to his sister-in-law. He looked at the old lady's lifeless face with red eyes and silently covered her with white cloth. Ge Chunli couldn't help crying, and Zhang Yang felt sour. If he had come earlier, maybe the old lady could have lived a few more days, but Zhang Yang also understood that this was just a matter of time. The old lady is so old, and birth, old age, sickness and death are irreparable by human resources. Even if he is a miracle doctor, he will not have the power to restore the world.

Zhang Yang whispered to Li Changyu: "Sad to be ashamed of the changes!"

Li Changyu nodded, went out to call, notify relatives and friends, and prepared for the old lady's funeral.

Zhang Yang also came outside the door and called his home. His mother Xu Lihua and Mrs. Su had a good relationship. Her sister Zhao Jing was Li Changyu's goddaughter. When the old lady passed away, everyone in the family should come to pay their respects. Zhang Yang contacted Brother Niu Wenqiang and asked them to pick up their parents.

Shortly after hanging up the phone, I saw Li Changyu's two sons rushing over. The two kids were also brought by Mrs. Su since she was a child, but they did not have a deep relationship with the old lady. Since their parents divorced, under the instigation of her mother Zhu Hongmei, they regarded Mrs. Su as the culprit of her parents' divorce. She did not come to visit the old lady at all on weekdays, but after all, they all had feelings. The old lady died. When they remembered the benefits of the old lady, their eyes were a little red, and crying came soon after they walked into the room.

After Li Changyu called, he took out a cigarette, and Zhang Yang came over to help him light the cigarette.

Li Changyu took a few puffs of cigarettes, but was accidentally choked and coughed loudly. Zhang Yang looked at Li Changyu with some sympathy: "Uncle Li, birth, old age, sickness and death are things that no one can stop him. Don't be too sad."

Li Changyu said: "Don't worry, I know what to do!"

Zhang Yang said: "I have nothing important to do recently. I need to do it, just say it."

Li Changyu nodded.

The first one to arrive was the hospital leader, and then Wan Guosheng, director of the Municipal Civil Affairs Bureau, came, and several deputy directors also came, from the Education Bureau, Tourism Bureau, and Li Changyu's leaders in charge of the department came. With the intervention of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Zhang Yang had nothing to do, and the Civil Affairs Bureau was the most experienced in handling such things.

After struggling until one o'clock in the morning, Zhang Yang drove home to rest. As soon as he opened the door, he felt someone pounced on him. Zhang Yang reacted so sensitively. He avoided it with a pity, then poked his arm out, strangled the other person's throat, and smelled a faint fragrance in his breath.

Hu Yinru's resentful voice came from the darkness and said, "You want to strangle me to death!"

Zhang Yang smiled and let go of Hu Yinru and turned on the light switch. He saw Hu Yinru wearing pink pajamas and her hair was a little wet. Obviously, she had just taken a shower and her white and tender chest kept undulating, which was extremely attractive.

Zhang Yang kissed her cherry lips and smiled and said, "Who told you not to turn on the lights? I thought a thief was coming in!"

Hu Yinru spat and said, "Have you ever seen a thief like me?"

"You are a female thief, a female thief!"

Hu Yinru smiled sweetly: "I'm sorting out the things you wrote and entering the text on the computer. I just finished it. Do you want to take a look?"

Zhang Yang shook his head: "I'll go take a shower first!"

Hu Yinru sorted out several prescriptions that Zhang Yang gave to Gu Jiatong. She had no medical knowledge. After entering the drug formula into the computer, she was afraid of making mistakes, so she asked Zhang Yang to review it again.

Zhang Yang is sure that's right.

Hu Yinru said: "Tomorrow I can teach these formulas to the R&D department, so that they can make samples as soon as possible and then experiment."

Zhang Yang knew that it was a very long process from research and development to market a drug. He whispered: "How is the recovery of Jiangcheng Pharmaceutical Factory's production now?"

"Production has resumed on a small scale. Now we will first reply to some of the past flagship products and strive to bring back some old customers in the past in a short period of time. Jiatong has gone to Beijing to conduct drug approval matters, and we will strive to complete the research and development and launch of new drugs before the end of the year."

If it can be done according to Hu Yinru's plan, the efficiency will be very fast.

Hu Yinru saw that Zhang Yang seemed to have some worries and whispered: "What happened? You seem to be unhappy!"

Only then did Zhang Yang tell the story of Old Lady Su's death.

Hu Yinru said: "Deputy Mayor Li's sister-in-law passed away. I have to go on behalf of Jiangcheng Pharmaceutical Factory." Hu Yinru's words made Zhang Yang consider a problem. The death of Mrs. Su will inevitably alarm many people. When encountering weddings and weddings, it is the best opportunity for subordinates to show their loyalty to their leaders. Li Changyu doesn't know how to deal with this matter this time.

Li Changyu looked at the familiar and unfamiliar names on the gift book, and he was worried. In less than a day, he had already collected 200,000 yuan in burning paper money, and there were endless people coming to pay their respects. By the day of cremation, he still didn't know how much he would charge.

He pursed his lips and said to Ge Chunli decisively and firmly: "You can't ask for this money!"

Ge Chunli looked at her husband. It was impossible to say that she was not moved when facing such a huge sum of money. But Ge Chunli also understood that these gift-giving people were not for the death of the old lady, but for the official position of her husband. If Li Changyu was not the executive vice mayor of Jiangcheng City, there would not be so many people coming to pay their respects, and there would not be so many people coming to give gifts.

Several directors and deputy directors under Li Changyu's jurisdiction have spontaneously become filial sons and grandsons. They have never left since the moment they set up the spirit shed. They are in their forties and fifties, and they are still waiting day and night. It makes people look a little touched. But thinking about the reason why they are willing to stay here as filial sons and grandsons is not because of the halo of the executive vice mayor on Li Changyu. After understanding this matter, Ge Chunli can figure out the meaning of Li Changyu's words. This money is hot, and if you take it, it may cause him a lot of trouble.

As Li Changyu's old classmate, the municipal party committee secretary Hong Weiji also came to pay his respects. After Li Changyu thanked him, he invited Hong Weiji aside and told him that some people took advantage of the old lady's death to give gifts to himself in disguise. Hong Weiji was not surprised. This kind of thing was a common phenomenon in the leadership team. When he was the secretary of the Lanshan Municipal Party Committee, his father died. The gifts he received at that time were more than 400,000 yuan, but Hong Weiji did not return them, and no one was there.

He is not afraid of doing something about it, even if he is doing something, he is at ease with the money. But Li Changyu is different. He is the executive vice mayor, and his goal is already set in the position of mayor. He is at a critical moment of competing with the left aid Korea. If someone catches the handle for this matter, it will be too unpaid. Hong Weiji said: "Try to treat it separately. Return the large amount of gifts. If you cannot return it, pay it to the Discipline Inspection Commission and ask the Discipline Inspection Commission to issue you a certificate."

Li Changyu deeply agreed. He also thought so. The reason why he sought Hong Weiji's opinion was just to show his integrity. Even if someone wanted to cause trouble in the future, there would be another proof person.

Zhang Yang stayed at Li Changyu's house to help all day, but he soon discovered that there was indeed not much he could get involved here. There were many people who wanted to help Deputy Mayor Li, and Zhao Jing also rushed back from Dongjiang. Zhang Yang asked her to accompany her mother to prevent Xu Lihua from being too sad.

Niu Wenqiang, Zhao Xinwei and Du Yufeng also followed the busy schedule. After Jiang Liang, deputy director of the Development Zone Branch, came to pay his respects, the brothers and others came to a place and called Zhang Yang over. Niu Wenqiang said, "I don't think there is anything to be busy with. There are too many people who help Deputy Mayor Li. We can't get in the process even if we stay. We will go back later. Let's wait for the day of cremation."

Zhang Yang nodded, but Jiang Liang said, "Don't leave. Finally, brothers and others gathered together. Let's have some drinks tonight. I'll do it!"

Several people looked at Zhang Yang. They all knew that Zhang Yang and Li Changyu had a good relationship and might not be able to get a background.

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "It's okay for me to stay. I'll do it. It's decided! Let's leave at five!"
To be continued...
