Chapter 358: Counterattack

~7 min read 1,355 words

September 22, 1992, the 26th day of the eighth lunar month, Tuesday, 1:20 AM.

A van appeared at the gate of the Provincial No. 1 Courtyard. Two brothers from the security department got out of the car carrying a sack full of report letters. Then Yao Jun, with a cigarette in his mouth, jumped out of the car.

"The mailbox is there. Stuff them in until you can't stuff any more."

A sack of report letters, several thousand of them, was really not light. The two of them laboriously dragged the sack to the green mailbox. Then they opened the sack and stuffed them in stack by stack until they couldn't stuff any more, and only then did they stop.

"Let's go, to the next place." Yao Jun spat, threw the cigarette butt in his mouth onto the ground, stepped on it hard, and then got into the car.

Next, they went around several big courtyards. A whole sack, several thousand report letters, were all stuffed into the mailboxes. By this time, the sky was already turning bright. They didn't linger but returned directly to Jiangzhou.

Song Kaiming, as the No. 1 big secretary, had to prepare the newspapers and tea every day before the boss arrived at the office. Originally, these things shouldn't be done by him, but because of habit, and because he didn't want others to intervene, he had done it himself for so many years.

"Secretary Song!" A staff member from the General Office ran over, "When we opened the mailboxes this morning, we found a large number of report letters, all reporting Feng Xingping. There must be over a thousand of them, filling the mailboxes to the brim."

"Feng Xingping?" Song Kaiming frowned, thinking for a long time before remembering who this person was, "I know. After the boss arrives, I will mention it to him."

Jian Zhengxue was in a good mood. He entered the office and picked up his teacup to take a sip. Last night, his daughter called him from abroad and they talked a lot. This was the first time.

What made him even more proud was that when his wife wanted to answer the phone, his daughter hung up directly. This proved that at this moment, he, the father, was much more important in his daughter's heart than her mother.

"Boss!" Song Kaiming entered and said: "The General Office received a large number of report letters, all reporting one person."

Jian Zhengxue said with a smile: "A large number of report letters, how large?"

Song Kaiming said: "It is said there are nearly a thousand."

Jian Zhengxue was stunned: "You didn't hear wrong?"

Song Kaiming shook his head: "No!"

Jian Zhengxue asked: "Reporting whom?"

Song Kaiming said: "Feng Xingping of the Discipline Inspection Commission."

Jian Zhengxue pondered for a moment: "So many report letters, there must be a problem. Go get a few, I want to see."

"Okay!" Song Kaiming turned and left.

Jian Zhengxue suddenly said: "Get a few more."

Soon, Song Kaiming came in holding a large stack of letters and placed them on Jian Zhengxue's desk.

Jian Zhengxue picked one up. The envelope was written with "Report Feng Xingping for abusing power for personal gain." Then he tore open the envelope and took out the letter paper inside. It was just a thin page.

When he saw the content, his brows furrowed. Zhou Andong was removed from his post and taken away for investigation? The cause was just that Zhou Andong said two sentences and offended Feng Xingping?

Jian Zhengxue didn't believe it, but he tore open more than ten letters in a row, and the content was much the same. Moreover, these report letters were all real-name, and the home addresses were written clearly, which made his heart have a trace of doubt.

Then he tore open a few more letters, looked at them, stuffed them back into the envelopes, and then lowered his head in deep thought. He reached out and grabbed the phone, dialed two numbers, and then put the phone down.

"Kaiming!" Jian Zhengxue tapped the table, "You look at these letters too."

Song Kaiming picked one up, lowered his head, and widened his eyes, saying in surprise: "Zhou Andong was removed from his post and taken away for investigation?"

He knew Zhou Andong, not because Zhou Andong was the director of Jiangzhou Winery, but because of Seeing Jian Qiu.

Immediately after, Song Kaiming read a few more, put the letters down silently, and waited for the boss's instructions.

Jian Zhengxue said: "Keep an eye on Jiangzhou Winery. If there is any news, notify me at any time."

"Okay!" Song Kaiming's eyes moved, he agreed, collected the report letters, and was about to leave.

Jian Zhengxue said: "Leave two letters for me."

Song Kaiming left two letters and turned out of the office.

Ever since Seeing Jian Qiu went abroad, he knew that Zhou Andong and Seeing Jian Qiu couldn't be together. But just now, the boss asked him to keep an eye on Jiangzhou Winery at all times. On this point, he could be sure that the boss was still quite concerned about Zhou Andong. Or rather, Seeing Jian Qiu and Zhou Andong might not have broken up.

Thinking of this, Song Kaiming sneered in his heart. If his guess was true, no matter who was plotting against Zhou Andong and Jiangzhou Winery, Feng Xingping, who was charging in the front, would likely become the sacrificial lamb for the boss to "beat the grass to scare the snake."

Jian Zhengxue picked up the two letters, looked at them again, and then gave a light laugh: "Kid, this should be something you stirred up, right? So many employees seeking justice for you shows that you have quite a lot of weight in the employees' hearts. On this point, you did well.

It's just that Qiuqiu's mother hasn't been very happy because of you. I'll show these two letters to her, perhaps she will be happy."

After muttering, Jian Zhengxue laughed again, "However, for Qiuqiu's sake, you can rest assured. As long as you have no problems, no one can move you."

Gong Jimin, the boss of the Discipline Inspection Commission, was looking at the report letters piled up on his desk with a livid face. His hands were gripping the armrests of his chair tightly, making a creaking sound, and the veins on the back of his hands were jumping.

This investigation targeting Zhou Andong was pushed by him behind the scenes. And Feng Xingping was his capable general, yet he was reported by so many winery employees, and with such absurd reasons, which made him very angry, but he had no way to deal with it.

"Pop, pop, pop..."

The office door was suddenly knocked. Gong Jimin took a deep breath: "Come in!"

The secretary pushed the door and entered: "Leader, the report letters about Director Feng were not only received by us, but also by several other big courtyards, and the quantity is not small.

Also, I just received a call from Lin Guosheng. Now the entire Jiangzhou has been driven by public opinion, and everyone is cursing Director Feng as a corrupt official. They feel injustice for Zhou Andong, being punished for words."

Gong Jimin was startled in his heart and stood up abruptly. He didn't expect the other side to use public opinion, and the counterattack to be so fierce and sharp.

Most importantly, he didn't have absolute control in the province, and he had more than one political enemy. If Feng Xingping couldn't catch Zhou Andong's handle, he would also become a target of attack, and he definitely wouldn't have an easy time then.

"Notify Feng Xingping immediately. Within two days, he must find evidence of Zhou Andong's disciplinary violations. If he can't find it, manufacture it. Otherwise, even I can't help him."

The secretary was startled in his heart. He didn't expect things to suddenly become so serious. Even the boss said such words. It was conceivable that if it wasn't handled well, the consequences would be unimaginable. ===== CHAPTER 359 =====
