Chapter 1115: Waste Not, Want Not

g ago. He saw Xiao Zheng by the water and greeted him. When Xiao Zheng walked closer, he said, “The leaders haven't come yet...” 。Then, the two didn't go into the private room immediately. Instead, th...Jiang Quanzhan is engaged in construction and has been mixing around in Yinzhou for many years. He is a fellow villager of Zhang Wei from Qianhu County. 。Since Zhang Wei became deputy director in a provincial department, Jiang Quan began to maintain close personal ties with him, almost regularly arranging dinners and entertainment at high-end places by West Lake and Phoenix Mountain. 。Over time, Zhang Wei also came to view Jiang Quan Zhan as a trustworthy fellow countryman. 。Last year, Zhang Wei decided to go to Ningbo. 。Jiang Quanzhan not only arranged a high-end farewell dinner, but also soon went to Ninggan to visit Zhang Wei in person, and sent him good tea and cigarettes. He also pre-booked ten banquet tickets at a hotel in Yinzhou, each costing five thousand yuan. As long as Zhang Wei goes to eat, he just needs to eat and leave after finishing the meal. 。These arrangements made Zhang Wei feel that Jiang Quanzhan was a man of loyalty and competence. 。Later, funding support arrived in the form of real money invested in projects such as the Helan Mountain Culture and Tourism Comprehensive Development Project, Jiangning Cooperative Full-Day School, and Diaozhuang Central Hospital. 。These projects had high investment amounts and large profit margins. Zhang Wei, during the bidding process, secretly introduced Jiang Quanzhan and established close ties with key leaders of relevant departments under Shan Chuanbai, the head of Ninggan Province's mountains and rivers department, enabling Jiang Quanzhan to win several projects. 。Jiang Quanzhan's company didn't actually engage in construction itself. It simply transferred these projects to other companies as subcontracts. Through this back-and-forth process, over several projects, Jiang Quanzhan's company made a profit of tens of millions of yuan. 。These are just a part of Jiang Quan's business dealings. Besides, through Zhang Wei's introduction, Jiang Quan has become very well acquainted with many leaders from various departments in Jiangzhong Province. He can take on any project and then subcontract it to others. He makes money without taking any risks, relying on constantly expanding his network of contacts and feeding off government projects. 。

Today's meal was arranged several days ago. To Jiang Quanzhan's surprise, this time Zhang Wei even invited Sima Yue, the Minister of Organization of the Provincial Committee, out. 。Before, Jiang Quanzhan wanted to get acquainted with Sima Yue through Zhang Wei, but Zhang Wei never provided that connection. 。But today was different, Jiang Quan finally met Sima Yue at a dinner party. 。After that, Jiang Quanzhan could brag to others. He had dined with Sima Yue, the Minister of Organization of the Provincial Committee, and was very familiar with him. In the future, if he needed to secure a project and some department leaders were unwilling to cooperate, he only had to mention his relationship with Sima Yue, and they would understand!The banquet was held at a club on Yangliu Ditch, costing 2,000 yuan per person. With eighteen people present, it centered around Sima Yue, the Minister of Organization of the Provincial Committee. 。Over the past two years, Sima Yue has served as the Organization Minister and fostered a group of his own people. Among them, Tan Siming even rose to the position of Standing Committee member of the Provincial Committee. It is rumored that Tan Zhen, the Secretary of Jingzhou Municipal Committee, will soon become the Secretary-General of the Provincial Committee. Both of these individuals are present today. 。...including officials from various cities, departments... 。This should be the last gathering before the Spring Festival, so everyone is very relaxed. There are plenty of good food and drinks, toasts flying, and compliments being exchanged. 。At the table, Zhang Wei told Jiang Quan to arrange a separate place for him to talk with Minister Sima after the banquet. 。Jiang Quanzhan naturally had his high-end Lincoln car escort him, arriving at a teahouse on Gem Mountain. 。The car drove into a bomb shelter at the foot of the mountain and stopped in a circular inner room. From this inner room, several corridors stretched out like tentacles towards the mountains. Above the entrance of the corridor they chose, a curtain was hung with the inscription "Cave Tea," which should be a pun on "insight." 。But this is just a gimmick. Entering the passage and going up the stairs, you actually reach a teahouse on the hillside. Looking over the railing, you can take in the entire view of West Lake's inner lake, White Dike, and Leifeng Pagoda. This place is not affordable for ordinary people. 。However, this was nothing new to Sima Yue, who merely dismissed it. 。After sitting down, Sima Yue, who was slightly tipsy, asked, "Commander Zhang, is there anything you want to tell me"

Zhang Wei had someone pour tea for Sima Yue, and then dismissed the waiter before saying, "Minister Sima, today I mainly came to pay my respects to Minister Sima." 。Secondly, I'd also like to report an idea to Minister Sima. 。Sima Yue picked up his teacup and took a sip. He leaned back in his chair, feeling completely relaxed. 。Over the past year or so, Sima Yue has been eating well and exercising little. He has gained about twenty pounds and his abdomen is noticeably protruding. At this moment, sitting in a chair, his whole body fills the chair perfectly. 。 Sima Yue said, "Well, what is it"

Zhang Wei leaned forward and whispered, "Minister Sima, I've been in aid of Ning for over a year now" 。In Ninggan, I also did my best to accomplish some things. I pushed forward several projects and got them started, and I also helped coordinate and resolve a number of issues for relevant enterprises and the local government. Overall, I achieved some results. 。But I feel like I'm not used to the climate here in the north. I'm getting older, and my health is really suffering. My "three high" problems are worse than ever, and recently I've been having headaches for no apparent reason. I went to the hospital, but they couldn't figure out what was causing them. 。I think it's mainly that my body, this machine, is getting old. 。Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity today, I would like to express an idea to Minister Sima: could you possibly allow me to return to Jiangzhong at an appropriate time next year I will always keep in mind the care shown by the leadership. 。"Back to the Jiangzhong" Sima Yue glanced at Zhang Wei and asked, "If you go back to Jiangzhong, who will be the commander" Zhang Wei said, "Liu Yongshi Comrade and Yang Hui Comrade are both deputy commanders. Either of them stepping up would be no problem." 。。"But if you have something to hold back, I'll certainly hold back more! You understand, right So, now we can talk. What happened on Ninggan's side You actually want to flee back immediately!" Zhang Wei looked at Sima Yue, let out a dry laugh, and then said: "It's true that nothing can escape the notice of Minister Sima." 。To be honest, I didn't want to bring up Ninggan's affairs and bother you, Sima. 。Since Minister Sima is so concerned, and since you asked, I certainly can't hide it! Recently, Ninggan has launched a crackdown on local officials under the guise of "fighting against black and evil." Three deputy provincial leaders – the Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, the Vice Governor, and the Secretary of Yinshi City Party Committee – have all been taken away by the Beijing Commission for Discipline Inspection! The leadership team of the Ninggan Provincial Party Committee and Government is facing a major reshuffle! I feel that in Ninggan Province, they are not truly focused on development. They are more enthusiastic about internal power struggles. 。What's even more infuriating is that among the cadres we sent from Jiangzhong, people like Ma Kai and Xiao Zheng were actively involved, helping certain leaders in Ninggan Province raise their flags and act as thugs! As you know, although I don't have any conflicts with Ma Kai, Xiao Zheng, and others, I simply don't approve of their work style and methods. 。"I'm really worried now, they might use the opportunity of being close to the main leaders of Ninggan Provincial Committee to spread misinformation to them, and even harm me, Liu Yongshi, and Yang Hui!"

"So you want to get out of this as soon as possible" Sima Yue leaned forward and looked at Zhang Wei. "Do you have any evidence of misconduct that they have on you"

Zhang Wei shook his head hurriedly. "No, no way!" 。>Although Zhang Wei's expression suggested certainty, in his heart he was actually unsure. 。Yesterday at the airport, Ninggan Provincial Committee Secretary Jiang Kui Gang said that he came to "send off Secretary Gu and his party," without mentioning anything about sending off Zhang Wei and his people. Isn't this obvious In Jiang Kui Gang's eyes, he doesn't recognize Zhang Wei and his people! However, Zhang Wei is after all the commander of the Aid Ning Command Headquarters, and to a certain extent, he represents the Aid Ning Command Headquarters. Why would Jiang Kui Gang be so impolite Could it be that he already knows about something between Zhang Wei and Yao Zhaoyang, or about his relationship with Shānchuān Bái and his peopleIf this is really the case, then the problem is worth being alerted to! But Zhang Wei also felt that they definitely didn't have any substantial clues, otherwise things wouldn't be so easy. For this reason, Zhang Wei had a sense of retreat. Sometimes after interests are severed, others don't bother wasting time on you. This was exactly what Zhang Wei had in mind. 。 Sima Yue smiled and put a imported blueberry into his mouth, chewed it, and said, "Since you're fine, why worry" Zhang Wei smiled bitterly and said, "Minister Sima, you know best. When someone wants to find fault with you, there will always be an excuse. We are all people who do things, as long as we do things, as long as we work on projects, people can always come up with this and that." 。Now that Ma Kai is in the Ninggan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, and with the support of Secretary Jiang from the Ninggan Provincial Committee, if he wants to find fault, he can always pick out our shortcomings and find some so-called evidence! Minister Sima, as your subordinate, I really hope to come back and be your left and right arm. 。Even if Ninggan is important, it's still someone else's land. Sima, the Minister, isn't there either. 。Only in the Jiangzhong with Minister Sima present is it truly our own. 。“I don’t want to till someone else’s fields and let my own land lie fallow! If Minister Sima is willing to help, when I return to Jiangzhong, I will do everything in my power and serve him faithfully!”

Saying this, Zhang Wei picked up a new teacup, poured it with fragrant and clear tea, raised his thumb and index finger, and presented it to Sima Yue, waiting for him to drink or not. 。 Sima Yue looked at Zhang Wei, pondered for a moment, picked up the tea in his fingers and said, "Well, after the Spring Festival, I will suggest to Secretary Xiong that you be transferred back to Jiangzhong..." 。 Sima Yue was thinking, on the river, currently Tan Siming stood with him, below Tan Zhen and Chen Hong, he could trust and drive, but to contend with the forces of Lu Zai Xing and others, it was far from enough! If Zhang Wei could come back and be loyal, it would be very useful for consolidating his own strength! Therefore, Sima Yue initially agreed to help Zhang Wei and suggest... 。Zhang Wei immediately beamed with delight: "Thank you, Minister Sima! This Spring Festival, is Minister Sima going back to reunite with his family"Sima replied: “I’m not going back. My father will arrive in Jiangzhong tomorrow afternoon. He has been stationed on the border for a long time. This time, Hua Jing approved his leave to come to Jiangnan and see...” 。I happened to be reunited with my father and took him out for a walk. 。"That's great!" Zhang Wei said excitedly, "Everything, I have arranged." 。" Sima Yue said: "No, I'll arrange it myself. " 。“Zhang Weidao: ‘I know Minister Sima’s arrangements are definitely fine.'" 。But, wouldn't this also take up the department head's time and energy These trivial matters, let us who are below handle them. I've prepared a plan, just have Department Head Sima take a look. 。"That'll work then." 。One point to note is that extravagance should be avoided. My father has very high standards for himself and insists on simplicity in all arrangements. 。"Zhang Weidao: "Understood, Minister Sima, please rest assured!" Xiaojingyu's heart was warm. 。But she felt a little engorged, so she needed to pump some milk out first. 。She looked at Li Haiyan and asked, "Haiyan, what are you eating Why don't you eat with me" L...
