Chapter Nineteen Youthful

During the Chinese New Year, red lanterns were hung on both sides of the streets of Lanjiang City. This festive atmosphere also made everyone not very enthusiastic about their work, and it was generally the case in all walks of life. After working hard for a year, it was only during the first month that they could relax themselves psychologically and take a few days off.

The same is true for the Lanjiang Hotel where Lu Zheng lives. During the Chinese New Year, the waiters end up leisurely. Nowadays, ordinary people don’t have much money, and even if they come to visit relatives in the city, no one is willing to spend money to stay in a hotel. Especially the Lanjiang Hotel is quite high in specifications, one of the best high-end ones in the Lanjiang area.

Lu Zheng returned to Lanjiang on the seventh day of the first lunar month. That night, he touched the east side. Maybe he had been calling Lu Zheng for the past two nights and waited for Lu Zheng to come back, so when Lu Zheng arrived in Lanjiang, he received his call.

Seeing that Xiang Dong had brought up a bottle of red wine and looked hesitant and wanted to speak, Lu Zheng smiled and said, "What a difficult thing? Tell me, no matter how difficult it is, it doesn't matter. I originally asked you to come to southern Yunnan to do a good job in our trading company, but now the policy has changed. I do some timber trade all day long, and I am afraid that international criticism of us for plundering resources and protecting the original forest. The small trade volume is pitiful. For you, it is a useless use of great talents, and I am quite unbearable."

Xiang Dong smiled bitterly, poured a glass of red wine for Lu Zheng, and said, "Mr. Lu, I'm sorry for you. I'm here to resign from you."

Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment and said, "A big company is here to dig up your job and change your job? What are the conditions you gave me?"

Xiang Dong shook his head and said, "That's not the case. Deng Sankun came to me and said that his autonomous government was preparing to establish an Economic Development Bureau and asked me to be the director."

Lu Zheng was stunned and then smiled and said, "This old Deng, you have dug up my house, right?"

Xiangdong hesitated for a while, and seemed to be embarrassed and couldn't say it. Finally, he said: "Also, that's right, I'm in Guobang, and I have another wife, and there's another proposal for marriage..."

Lu Zheng was speechless for a moment, looking at the slightly ashamed Xiangdong, coughing and saying, "It's nothing, just arrange it at home." It seems that Deng Sankun put in a lot of effort, but in fact, if he didn't have too much pursuit, his life in Guobang is still good. Mainlanders are very favorable in Guobang, and they are like superior. Many mainlanders, after going to Guobang, would be happy. Not to mention the temptation of Xiangdong's beautiful wife and concubines, and high salary and high positions.

He picked up the cup and clinked the cup with Shindong. Lu Zheng said, "Okay, it seems that you have considered it clearly. I won't say anything to keep you, and it will save you from making things difficult. But Guobang is a foreign land after all, so be careful in everything. You can find me any difficulties in the future. Our friendship is evergreen."

Xiang Dong finally breathed a sigh of relief. The most feared thing was that President Lu wanted to keep him. It would be too embarrassing President Lu's face, and it would be bad after all.

"Mr. Lu, thank you for your care during this period." Xiang Dong raised his cup and drank it all in one go.

At this moment, a soft knock on the door came from outside, and Lu Zheng smiled and said, "I don't know who it is, I can't come to pay New Year's greetings." Lu Zheng is a member of the Ministry, and the place where he lives is too clear. There are not many people who come to pay New Year's greetings during the Chinese New Year, but few people come to pay New Year's greetings with big bags.

In the corridor, there was a stranger standing. A middle-aged man in his thirties was wearing a jacket and dressed in a normal manner. He looked like an ordinary office worker.

Lu Zheng was thinking that the other party was looking for the wrong house, but the person came was also a little surprised. He looked at Lu Zheng and asked hesitantly: "May I ask, does Commissioner Lu live here?"

Lu Zheng nodded slightly and said, "I am."

The person who came was even more surprised, stunned, and said, "I, I am Xie Hongwen's brother, my name is Xie Hongliang."

Lu Zheng was stunned again, Xiao Xie's brother? When he saw this, the two of them looked vaguely similar. However, although Xie Hongwen was chosen to be with him, he did not have much contact with this young man because Xie Hongwen seemed to have a strong personality and was not as good as an ordinary secretary.

Hu Zi had a big objection to him, saying that Xie Hongwen is not good enough, and no one asked you to flatter, but don't be arrogant and don't regard the leader as a leader. It's just a 25-year-old.

Lu Zheng was also dissatisfied with him, but he never thought of replacing him. It didn't matter. He did not belong to the local department, so he would do his job well. He didn't have to worry about the local department.

Xie Hongwen's brother came to find him? It was surprising. Lu Zheng opened the door and said with a smile: "Let's come in and say, it should be something wrong?"

After hearing that the young man in front of him was the deputy commissioner of the Administrative Office, Xie Hongliang seemed very restrained and followed Lu Zheng in. He sat on the sofa under Lu Zheng's gesture. He poured him a glass of water in the east, and said to Lu Zheng, "Mr. Lu, I'll leave first."

Lu Zheng waved his hand and said, "Sit down, I have something to tell you." He looked at Xie Hongliang and asked, "What's the matter? It's not that Xiao Xie wants to resign, right? Everyone has their own ambitions, I won't force it. Besides, from the perspective of organizational relationship, if he wants to resign, I can't even care about it."

Xie Hongliang was stunned. My younger brother really had this meaning recently. How did this Commissioner Lu know? He immediately said: "No, it was Hong Wen. He was arrested by the police in the afternoon. I couldn't find out about him, so I want to ask if there is any news."

Lu Zheng was slightly stunned and said, "Has he been arrested by the public security? Lanjiang Municipal Bureau or the Regional Public Security Bureau?"

Xie Hongliang said helplessly: "I just don't know where I was arrested, so I was anxious. This afternoon, he went to Xiaoling's house and happened to meet Sun Senlin. He heard that the two of them had started fighting again, and then came to the police and arrested Hong Wen." Seeing that Lu Zheng's expression was a little puzzled, he explained: "Xiaoling is Hong Wen's former girlfriend. Later, she married Hong Wen's good friend Sun Senlin. However, because Xiaoling used to work in another place, Hong Wen has been taking care of her parents. Her parents treat Hong Wen like her own son. Isn't this the New Year? He asked Hong Wen to have dinner. Hong Wen actually didn't want to go, but the old lady came to her house to invite her, and Hong Wen went. Who knew that her son-in-law, who was originally saying that she had dinner at her house, suddenly came up, and then, it seemed that the two of them started fighting because of something. Now the old lady regretted it very much. She also said that it was Sun Senlin's move first."

Lu Zheng nodded slightly and understood the whole story. Sun Senlin was the son of Sun Houtang, deputy secretary of the Prefectural Committee and Minister of Organization. He worked in the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economics and Trade. He found himself in order to promote the official department of Sun Houtang, but in the end, I heard that he still failed to get what he wanted.

"Commissioner Lu, it seems that you don't know much about this matter, so I'll go and inquire again." Seeing that Lu Zheng had no clue, Xie Hongliang seemed a little surprised.

Xiang Dong said from the side: "Teacher Lu just came back from Beijing and arrived in Lanjiang at night."

Lu Zheng smiled and said, Xiang Dong was explaining it to him. In fact, no matter how unfamiliar Xie Hongwen was with him, at least in name, he was with his secretary. He was arrested by the police for such a big deal and no one informed him of his face. It was a bit unreasonable.

"Let's do it, I'll call to ask." Lu Zheng took out a small book with red plastic skin from under the coffee table, which was the address book of the Lanjiang local Yubu.

Turning the first page, Lu Zheng picked up the phone and dialed the phone number at the home of Zhang Dapeng, deputy secretary of the Lanjiang Prefectural Committee and secretary of the Lanjiang Municipal Party Committee.

An hour ago, in the hotel lobby, Lu Zheng met Liu Bo, secretary of the regional political and legal committee and director of the Public Security Department, and exchanged a few greetings. If it was arrested by the regional public security department, if Liu Bo knew about it, he would definitely tell him, not to mention that at best, Xie Hongwen was fighting, most of the case was a policeman from the Municipal Bureau’s Public Security Department or the police station.

Of course, I had to ask Zhang Dapeng about the city bureau.

There have been rumors recently that Zhao Qianjin, a commissioner of the Administrative Office, would be transferred. If the provincial party committee does not airborne, Zhang Dapeng and Sun Houtang are both candidates with high voices.

On the other side of the microphone, when Zhang Dapeng heard it was Lu Zheng, he laughed and said, "Commissioner Lu, it's a good New Year. I'm still saying that I'll take the air to sit there these days."

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Good New Year, Secretary Zhang, I have something to do, please trouble you. Xiao Xie, who often helps me write materials, is Xie Hongwen. I heard that he had a conflict with someone and was taken away by the police. The place of the conflict was." Looking at Xie Hongliang, Xie Hongliang hurriedly said, "Old Line Blanket Factory Household Building | 40." Lu Zheng repeated it according to his original words.

"Oh, that's it. Wait until I find paper and note it, and you can say it again... OK, OK, I'll ask, wait for my phone number." As he said that, Zhang Dapeng hung up the phone.

"Teacher Lu, please trouble you, then, I'll go back and listen to it?" Xie Hongliang said gratefully.

Lu Zheng waved his hand and said, "Let's wait a moment, if it's not the person arrested by the municipal bureau, then it's the regional public security department." He glanced at Xie Hongliang and said, "It seems that you and your brother have a good relationship. Did he tell you my address?"

Xie Hongliang hurriedly explained: "Hong Wen is very strict, how could he tell me about public affairs? I heard that he was arrested, so I didn't care about anything. I looked through his address book and wanted to ask his friend for a while. But in the afternoon, no one had a clear letter. There was no way, so I came to you. I came too abruptly. It was all myself and I didn't know anything. It had nothing to do with Hong Wen. Don't blame him." When he came to see this Commissioner Lu just now, he didn't think anything about it. After all, no matter how big the official is, it seems to have nothing to do with him. It's not as frustrating as the department head of their company. But now gradually, I feel a little scared. After all, although the young man in front of him is easy-going, he is the leader of the entire Lanjiang region, and the boss of his own company, and he has to be respectful in front of others.

Zhang Dapeng was very quick to do things and quickly called, saying that it was the person arrested by Zhao Zhuang, and now the municipal bureau cadres have gone down to deal with it.

Lanjiang is the resident of the regional committee and administrative office. It is a county-level city and a public security dispatch agency. If the city is under the jurisdiction of Chengguan, Zhaozhuang is a police station on the outskirts of the city. Although the family home of the old line blanket factory is relatively close to Zhaozhuang, Zhaozhuang should not be a police officer in general public security cases. Moreover, this was just a small dispute among the people.
