Chapter 1427: His Backer is Tang Ye!

~9 min read 1,602 words

After Bi Dongqing hung up the phone, he dialed Zhang Chong's number.

Seeing that the caller ID was Bi Dongqing, Zhang Chong immediately felt a headache, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer.

"Police Station Chief Bi, what instructions do you have this time?"

Bi Dongqing sighed and said, "I just received a call from Han Hu; he is not satisfied with the handling of the case regarding the assault on the Lianhua Town Deputy Town Mayor."

Zhang Chong's brows knit tightly together, his mouth turned downward, and his tone carried a hint of impatience: "Police Station Chief Bi, the people have already turned themselves in. What else do you want me to do?"

Bi Dongqing explained, "After identification, Ma Ran insists that those three people are imposters taking the blame."

Zhang Chong shrugged helplessly, "Police Station Chief Bi, I have already found the culprits for you. They have also confessed. If you are still going to be so relentless, then there is nothing I can do."

Bi Dongqing warned in a serious tone, "Boss Zhang, we have known each other for a while; I advise you to take this matter seriously. Otherwise, things will become very troublesome. Nothing else, I'm hanging up."

Hearing the busy signal from the phone, Zhang Chong also felt a sense of unease in his heart.

In his view, wasn't it just hitting someone?

The other party was merely a Section Chief level cadre; he had already handed over the people, so the matter should have just passed.

Zhang Chong thought for a moment and dialed Yang Bo's number.

Yang Bo answered the phone, "Bug, is something the matter?"

Zhang Chong said, "Brother-in-law, there is a matter I would like to ask for your help with."

Yang Bo sighed, "Speak, what is it?"

Zhang Chong said, "Some people below beat up the Deputy Town Mayor of Lianhua Town, and I only found out about it afterward. They have already turned themselves in now."

Yang Bo frowned and said, "Assaulting a public official is a very vile act, the nature of it is too vile! I have told you many times to properly discipline the people below you. Why do you never listen?"

Zhang Chong said helplessly, "It's mainly because that Town Mayor doesn't know what's good for him. He treats a feather as a command arrow and refuses to release a certain construction payment. The people below were just a bit anxious to collect the debt..."

Yang Bo said with some anger, "That still doesn't justify hitting someone."

Zhang Chong sighed, "I regret it too, isn't that why I'm trying to find a way to remedy it? Brother-in-law, why don't you find someone to mediate, and I will set up a table of wine to apologize. It is better to resolve grievances than to keep them. I will give the man surnamed Ma a sum of compensation, and let this matter pass. Do you think that will work?"

Yang Bo knew what Zhang Chong meant, "That is the only way to do it now. What is this Town Mayor's name, and what is his background? Send me his information later. I will think of a way!"

Seeing that Yang Bo was willing to help, Zhang Chong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Alright, I will send you the information in a moment."

About ten minutes later, Yang Bo received a text message.

"Ma Ran, 31 years old, Executive Deputy Town Mayor of Lianhua Town, native of Shaan Province, formerly served as Deputy Director of the Yechuan County Government Office..."

Yang Bo knew that with Zhang Chong's connections, he couldn't find out Ma Ran's deeper background, so he called his Secretary in.

To resolve conflicts within the system, one must think of ways from a higher dimension.

To put it bluntly.

First find Ma Ran's backer, then mediate through his backer.

"Xiao Huang, I will forward a text message to you in a moment; help me find out this person's detailed resume, the more detailed the better."

Xiao Huang quickly said, "Alright, I will go check right away."

Half an hour later, Xiao Huang brought a document and handed it to Yang Bo.

"General Manager Yang, this is Ma Ran's detailed resume! His backer is Yechuan County Magistrate Tang Ye."

Yang Bo was not unfamiliar with the name Tang Ye.

This guy was the confidant of the Municipal Party Secretary.

"What is his relationship with Tang Ye?"

"He is Tang Ye's Liaison Officer, which is to say, his Secretary. He originally served in Dayu County of Shaan Province; after Tang Ye finished his exchange in Dayu County, he followed Tang Ye to Yechuan County. Half a year ago, Tang Ye went to the Central Party School for full-time study, and he was transferred to Lianhua Town to serve as Acting Town Mayor, becoming official one month ago."

Yang Bo took a deep breath.

No wonder Ma Ran was so tough, daring to withstand the pressure and refusing to sign off.

It turned out that behind him, he actually had such a big shot with a strong background supporting him.

"Got it, you go get busy!"

"Alright, then I will head out first."

After Xiao Huang left, Yang Bo dialed Zhang Chong's phone number and launched into a torrent of abuse!

"Was your brain kicked by a donkey? Do you know who this Ma Ran's backer is?"

Zhang Chong was confused by the scolding, "I don't know! It was the people below who did it. Does the other party have a big background?"

Yang Bo said angrily, "He is the Chief Secretary of the Yechuan County Magistrate, arranged to go to Lianhua Town to gild his resume. Why are you so brainless in your actions, not investigating the other party's background clearly before taking action?"

Zhang Chong was startled and said aggrievedly, "This matter was truly done by my subordinates. After I found out about this, I gave them a sound scolding too!"

Yang Bo said coldly, "I have told you many times, the situation has changed now, the old ways of fighting and killing are no longer applicable."

Zhang Chong asked cautiously, "Are you familiar with this County Magistrate? I am willing to host a dinner to apologize."

Yang Bo tried to control his anger, "The County Magistrate of Yechuan County is named Tang Ye. This person is very young and is a direct subordinate of Municipal Party Secretary Jiang Jing. Previously, Tan Zonghe fell into his trap and was forced to flee in fear of punishment."

Tang Ye is a famous "Ghost-Fear," full of treacherous plots!

If this hidden danger is not dealt with in time, the future troubles will be endless!

Zhang Chong said: "Brother-in-law, I know you definitely have a way."

Yang Bo's interest relationship with Zhang Chong was too tight; if Zhang Chong ran into trouble, he himself would be at risk of exposure.

"I will think of a way, but for this recent period, you behave yourself and stop causing trouble."

Zhang Chong breathed a sigh of relief: "Rest assured."

Hanging up Zhang Chong's call, Yang Bo took his work address book out of the drawer and quickly found the phone number for Tang Ye's office in the Yechuan County section.

Beep, beep, beep—the prompt tone rang three times, and the other side answered.

"Hello!"

Yang Bo quickly said, "County Magistrate Tang, hello, I am Yang Bo from the City Urban Investment Company."

Tang Ye paused slightly, "General Manager Yang, may I ask what you need?"

Yang Bo sighed regretfully, "County Magistrate Tang, there is indeed a matter I would like to discuss with you. I have a relative whose subordinate made a mistake in Lianhua Town, Yechuan County. Could we find a place, my treat, and sit down to talk the matter through clearly? We can provide whatever compensation is necessary, and then resolve the misunderstanding..."

Tang Ye said indifferently, "President Yang, I understand. You are here to intercede with me because Ma Ran was beaten and injured, aren't you?"

Yang Bo nodded and said, "That's right, I hope County Magistrate Tang can show me some small favor."

Tang Ye said calmly, "I think many things still need to be investigated clearly. Ma Ran is a public official, and it involves the image of the Government, so it must be treated seriously."

Yang Bo laughed, "You are right, it should indeed be treated seriously. How about this, I will book a private room at Yuelai Hotel, and at five o'clock this afternoon, I will arrange a car to pick you up. I will come in person to offer you a humble apology!"

Tang Ye thought to himself, if one does not enter the tiger's den, how can one catch the tiger's cub?

Might as well feign compromise first!

Let's see what exactly the other party is up to!

"Fine, since President Yang is so sincere, then I will see you tonight! No need to trouble yourself with arranging a car."

Yang Bo breathed a sigh of relief, "See you then!"

Just after hanging up the phone with Yang Bo.

A call from Shi Guangrong came in!

"County Magistrate Tang, are you free right now?"

"I am free!"

"I'll come to your office to find you."

"Alright. I'll wait for you!"

Shi Guangrong hung up the phone, took a deep breath, pulled open a drawer, and took out a kraft paper envelope.

He had keenly sensed that a conflict had erupted between Tang Ye and Yang Bo!

This moment, he had waited a long time for...
