Chapter 1161: Treating Zhang Lei as a Discarded Pawn!

Li Yongan was quick-eyed and nimble-handed; he hurriedly snatched the Dichlorvos from the other person's hand.

His tone was extremely stern as he loudly criticized,

"What are you doing? You must not do anything foolish."

A smile appeared on the corner of the mouth of Zhang Jiashan's wife, "Deputy County Magistrate Li, rest assured, the matter is resolved, I have no need to do anything foolish. I was actually very disappointed in the Government, but now it seems there are still good cadres who consider things for us common folk."

"I still have matters to attend to and need to leave for a moment. You have my mobile number; if you encounter any problems you cannot solve, contact me at any time."

"Very well, Deputy County Magistrate Li, please go and attend to your business."

There were many onlookers in the lobby, and seeing this scene, they were also deeply moved.

"That person just now was the Deputy County Magistrate; he helped Zhang Jiashan solve his problem directly."

"This couple brought pesticide here; it's fortunate it was handled in time, otherwise a human life would have been lost."

"I heard Zhang Lei has been arrested!"

"That is him reaping what he sowed."

"Finally, someone is standing up for us!"

It was unknown who started clapping!

Immediately following, the entire lobby was filled with applause!

Clap, clap, clap...

Li Yongan's mood at this moment was extremely satisfied.

Besides pursuing power, being an official also requires pursuing the recognition of the common folk.

He was very clear-headed internally that, regarding the whole affair, he was merely an Acting Chief for County Magistrate Tang.

If it were not for Tang Ye's planning and pushing, the chaotic state of the Transportation Bureau would still exist.

……

Tang Ye returned to the County Party Committee Compound and found Han Zhengyi.

Han Zhengyi let Tang Ye sit down and took the initiative to ask, "Has the issue with Zhang Lei been investigated clearly?"

Tang Ye sighed with emotion, "It has been investigated clearly.

Usually, Zhang Lei looks very honest, but I never expected him to be the root of the transportation chaos.

Zhang Lei built a Cargo Transportation Association with a strict organizational structure; personnel were divided into three levels: the head was himself, responsible for leading and issuing orders, with some public officials from the Transportation Bureau acting as the backbone;

The second level was the cargo company bosses who held shares in the association, and the trucks joining the association were all registered under these cargo companies;

The third level was the thugs and henchmen hired by the cargo company bosses, who specifically managed the trucks in the association and tracked, threatened, and attacked 'illegal taxis'.

Zhang Lei's cousin, Qiu Family Village, was Zhang Lei's money bag and white glove for accumulating wealth.

When he was investigated, he himself admitted that the Cargo Transportation Association was just a criminal gang collecting protection money.

Their forces and strongholds were entrenched in fields such as public bus transport, tourist charters, driving school training, and parking lots.

A large number of cadres in the transportation field were roped in and corrupted by him;

From the Transportation Bureau offices to the Transportation Management Station, the Comprehensive Law Enforcement Bureau, and the Local Highway Station,

fabricating projects to siphon off funds, setting up random categories to abuse subsidies, and violating regulations by accepting banquets and trips from subordinate industry associations were common occurrences!"

Han Zhengyi's expression changed slightly, and he said angrily, "I never expected such a black monster to be hiding within our ranks. I have responsibility for this matter!"

Tang Ye hurriedly said, "Secretary Han, this matter has nothing to do with you. It can only be said that Zhang Lei hid too deeply.

Moreover, under your leadership and support, through the Government Capability Rectification Action, we successfully ferreted out this group of rats."

Seeing Tang Ye say this, Han Zhengyi felt much better and acknowledged, "The effect of the Government Capability Rectification Action is obvious. I hope that through this action, we can comprehensively rectify the unhealthy tendencies in the transportation industry!"

After Tang Ye left, Han Zhengyi pinched the bridge of his nose.

In order to rectify the chaos in the County Transportation Bureau.

Tang Ye had made many preparations.

The Huimin Bus was a feint, a move to attack in the east while striking in the west...

He had long since locked onto this bottomless black area of the transportation system.

Han Zhengyi had to admit that he had not previously considered that such serious problems existed in the Transportation Bureau.

He remembered that Zhou Songtao had mentioned it to him a few times before, but Han Zhengyi had not attached importance to it.

Tang Ye was following in the footsteps of his predecessor, clearing away the tumors of Yechuan County step by step.

It must be admitted that his targets were very precise, finding the pain points of Yechuan County's administration.

He was steadily building a solid foundation for the Government.

……

Hotel.

Yang Guoxiong still chose to work in the hotel suite.

The phone rang, and Yang Guoxiong answered the call.

Chen Ning's tone was somewhat nervous, "Mayor Yang, I just received news that Zhang Lei has been arrested."

Yang Guoxiong frowned and said, "Why?"

Chen Ning said, "It's not clear specifically, it should be related to the bus strike."

Yang Guoxiong said coldly, "This person Zhang Lei is quite bold; I've heard a saying that for a heavy truck to pass through Yechuan, it must be one ton lighter to get through! You need to be mentally prepared; if you have economic dealings with Zhang Lei, you must distance yourself quickly, don't bring trouble upon yourself."

Chen Ning had originally wanted to ask Yang Guoxiong if there was a chance to fish Zhang Lei out.

But, judging by Yang Guoxiong's tone, he intended to treat Zhang Lei as a discarded pawn.

Yang Guoxiong's indifference made Chen Ning feel a deep chill.

He had long known that Yang Guoxiong could not be relied upon, but he still underestimated Yang Guoxiong's coldness and selfishness.

Yang Guoxiong hung up the phone, a look of gravity appearing in his eyes.

He had to admit that he had underestimated Tang Ye's ability.

He had let Chen Ning block the Bus Village-to-Village Project proposed by Tang Ye, but Tang Ye did not give up; not only did he cleverly resolve the obstacles, but he also conveniently pulled out the nail that was Zhang Lei.

As the Vice Mayor in charge of transportation, having such serious problems involving organized crime and corruption occur under his jurisdiction meant he bore an inescapable responsibility...

Jin Baoling walked in, wearing a cheongsam today, her hair permed, and silver earrings setting off her small, delicate ears to look pink, white, and adorable.

Jin Baoling walked behind Yang Guoxiong and helped him knead his shoulders a couple of times.

Yang Guoxiong closed his eyes, feeling the strength of her fingertips, and his entire spirit relaxed.

"Mayor Yang, I heard the director of the Yechuan County Transportation Bureau was arrested. Do you have a backup candidate now?"

Yang Guoxiong looked up at Jin Baoling, "What? Has someone found you?"

Jin Baoling took out a card and placed it in front of Yang Guoxiong, "I checked, there is 100,000 inside."

Yang Guoxiong picked up the bank card and stuffed it back into Jin Baoling's hand, "Return the money."

Jin Baoling said in surprise, "You are the Vice Mayor in charge; isn't arranging a county transportation bureau director an easy task?"

A look of anger erupted in Yang Guoxiong's eyes,

"In the past, wanting to arrange someone would certainly have been no problem.

However, the situation is different now.

Do you think the position of Yechuan County Transportation Bureau director is easy to sit in?

Zhang Lei was taken down for committing a crime; whoever replaces him will be carrying a pack of dynamite.

If a problem arises, this card you accepted will become a death warrant."

Jin Baoling looked at Yang Guoxiong in surprise, thinking to herself that Mayor Yang had really changed a lot; he used to be very unscrupulous, but recently he had become increasingly cautious.

Yang Guoxiong was also helpless.

Recently, problems had been cropping up frequently!

The new County Magistrate of Yechuan, Tang Ye, was like a sharp dagger, causing him to be stabbed repeatedly and making his back feel cold...
