"What do you plan to do?" Liu Guozheng touched his nose and said in a deep voice," If you want to leave, there are only two outcomes. You can either be promoted or you will lose your reputation. The possibility of promotion is very low. You are not the one who has been in the limelight for the past two years. The city can't be biased towards you just because of your connections. Don't forget, the wife of the director of the Labor Bureau surnamed Fan is the daughter of a veteran cadre in the province.”
"I know, I know this very well." Fang Fumin scratched his head and sighed." Old Xu's power has been growing stronger and stronger these two years. I can't defeat him at all. Although on the surface, I am the secretary of the county party committee, but when did he, the county head, treat me as a secretary? If it really doesn't work, I can only transfer to another place at the same level. The waters in Pingan County are too deep. I'm afraid a small fish like me can't stay there.”
"Old Fang, I didn't come to tell you these things today to make you retreat!”Liu Guozheng was a little angry." Don't you think about the people of Pingan County? They formed cliques for personal gain and colluded for benefits. To put it bluntly, they wanted to be local emperors! Do you know how much money they earned from selling the country's land just by investing in me? I once asked someone to investigate in secret. Just the beverage factory I invested in, that piece of land, they got at least a few million in profits! Also, have you forgotten about the death case in the mine last year? That state-owned mine had long become an empty title. The various small mines inside had long been contracted by private individuals!”
"I know, but what can I do by myself? Do you want me to expose all these things? Do you think I have that ability? If I arrest him, I'll offend the entire county government!”Fang Fumin's voice also became louder, and it was obvious that he was a little angry." What are you? You are a private entrepreneur, the king of investment in Pingan County. You can stay out of it and not pay any responsibility with your mouth, but what about me? Every time I do something, I have to be nervous and careful! You can't understand how a slight change affects the whole body!”
Liu Guozheng sighed heavily and said with a bitter smile," Don't think of me as too noble and righteous. In fact, I'm not telling you all this for the sake of the people and the country. My daughter is the person I love the most. She said that she wants me to cooperate with you, so I will cooperate with you. However, the prerequisite is that you must have the ability to cooperate with me. That's all I have to say. You can think about the rest yourself.”
"Then tell me, what can I do to salvage this situation? What should I do to get back the score after losing the game?”When Fang Fumin said this, even his tone seemed to be so unconfident.
Liu Guozheng didn't answer immediately. Instead, he kept looking at Fang Fumin. After a minute or two, he replied," If you really want to stay in Pingan County, then I will answer." If you don't have the courage to work hard, then you might as well leave this place. You're good, I'm good, everyone's good."
Fang Fumin thought for a while and gritted his teeth." As long as there's a glimmer of hope, I'm willing to stay!”
"Alright, your words are enough.”Liu Guozheng thought for a moment and continued," Actually, it's not difficult to break up their collusion. There is only a relationship of interest between them, not a deep friendship. Although they call each other brothers in secret, they are actually on guard against each other. Therefore, since they couldn't fight them all, they would attack them one by one!”
"Break them down one by one?" Fang Fumin's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said," Please be more specific.”
"It's very simple. Based on my interactions with them over the past year, I've discovered that the interest chain between them is deep and shallow. Some people are at the periphery, while others are at the core of the interest chain. It's hard to fight against people who are at the core of the interests, so we might as well start from outside the core.”
Hearing Liu Guozheng's words, Fang Fumin suddenly had some doubts and pondered. After a while, he replied," But, can I trust you? Old Liu, you and I are both people who know the ins and outs of things. To be honest, if our cooperation is purely based on what you said, I don't think I'll believe it. I'm afraid even you won't believe it yourself, right?”
"Hey, I've been waiting for you to ask this question for a long time.”Liu Guozheng suddenly revealed a faint smile." Actually, this question is complicated and simple. To put it simply, there's a problem between my interests and theirs. Think about it, for example, if I want something, will two families benefit me or one family benefit me?”
"Haha, I understand now. Merchants…always like to compare goods and never like to monopolize.”Fang Fumin also laughed.
"Yes, I don't want the businesses I invested in Pingan County to become something they can blackmail me with after monopolizing them. If possible, I certainly hope that you can compete with them. In this way, both sides will need to rope in and curry favor with me. Naturally, no one will open their mouths to blackmail me secretly. A businessman would always put stability first.”When Liu Guozheng said this, his expression was extremely calm, and he looked like he had a plan in mind.
The more Fan Wei listened, the more frightened he became. He had only overheard these words with a golden needle out of curiosity, but he did not expect it to be a shocking change that was about to happen in the entire Pingan County officialdom! It was only then that he realized that the world he lived in was far from being as beautiful as he had imagined…After all this time, he was still just a childish child.
"I can accept this reason. I want you as an ally!”Fang Fumin seemed to be in a good mood. He laughed and shook Liu Guozheng's hand." Tell me, what should we do first?"”
"I think the head of the Organization Department, the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Committee, and the director of the Labor Bureau should be at the core of the representative of County Head Xu. Therefore, we have to start with these three people.”Liu Guozheng shrugged his shoulders and said," Of course, we can't touch Director Fan from the Labor Bureau. We're more than afraid of his wife's family background. We don't have the ability to make him capsize. Besides, he was a gold-plated guy. With such a strong background, it was only a matter of time before he was promoted to the provincial level.”
Fang Fumin didn't say anything and just nodded silently.
"Actually, there's something I haven't told you.”Seeing that Fang Fumin did not answer, Liu Guozheng frowned and finally said," Director Fan and I have a good relationship because my old man used to be his father's life and death comrade. When we were young, we were in the same production team. At that time, the two elders had arranged for a marriage. They had already betrothed my newborn daughter, Liu Ting, to the Fan family.”
"Oh?" Fang Fumin was a little surprised." So, Liu Ting is going to marry Chief Fan's son?"”
"I'm afraid so. The old man is very stubborn. There's nothing Liu Ting can do if she doesn't like him.”When Liu Guozheng said this, he was obviously helpless.
When Fan Wei heard this, he finally understood why Liu Ting hated his own brother so much. She did not give Fan Jian any face at the bus stop and embarrassed him in front of so many people. After all this fuss, Liu Ting was already Fan Jian's fiancée?
"In that case, you've found another good backer.”Fang Fumin laughed again." A businessman is only interested in profit. The more backers he has, the better. I don't mind that.”
Liu Guozheng sighed." I really don't want this backer. I get a headache when I hear Liu Ting's angry complaints. Sigh, I really don't understand why that old man of mine likes to joke about casual engagement.”
"Since Director Fan has a strong backing and is not easy to deal with, then our target should be Old Wei from the Organization Department and Old Zheng from the Discipline Inspection Committee, right?”
"The head of the Organization Department, Old Wei, is no longer in his prime. He will retire next year, and the candidate to replace him is probably Fan Tao.”Liu Guozheng raised his eyebrows." So, our focus should be on the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Committee, Zheng Liming!”
"However, this Old Zheng's position is neither big nor small. The Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Committee is mainly in charge of the corruption and honesty of officials. It's probably difficult." Fang Fumin shook his head, clearly feeling that the difficulty was too great.
"If you want to investigate his corruption, it's naturally difficult. If you want to investigate his abuse of power, it's also difficult. However, other things, if you say it's difficult, it's not too difficult.”When Liu Guozheng said this, he smiled and whispered mysteriously," This guy has a mistress behind his wife's back."”
