Chapter 536: It Really Is A Case Of

"When I was first with Hu Mingsheng, everyone found it strange. Because at the time, he was nothing more than a fishmonger." Zhu Junting said with a smile, "Do you know the reason I chose him?"

Tang Ye said: "First, your husband has a special charm, with drive and courage. Second, you felt the need to prove yourself, choosing an ordinary person to cultivate, letting him succeed, and thereby proving your own ability."

Zhu Junting looked at Tang Ye quietly: "I finally know why I feel the desire to confide in you when I'm with you. You can understand me."

Tang Ye said with a smile: "It's not easy to earn your praise."

Zhu Junting was thoughtful: "However, although we can communicate on the same frequency, someone like you is definitely not the type of marriage partner I would choose, because two smart people are only suited to be friends or rivals; if they live together, it's too exhausting."

"I hope we are friends forever." He suddenly changed the subject, "Are you still interested in the Old City Project?"

Zhu Junting was stunned for a moment, then immediately laughed: "So this is where you were waiting for me?"

Tang Ye said: "I was just asking, right? Many enterprises are interested in the Old City now."

Zhu Junting said softly: "We were interested. However, our attention is now entirely focused on the West City Development Project. From what I understand, it won't be easy to successfully expropriate and demolish the Old City. The Dong Family Ancestral Hall will become a stumbling block."

Tang Ye nodded slightly: "Your intelligence work is very thorough."

Zhu Junting sighed faintly: "Back then, Bi Danian prepared to enter Suiyuan and clashed with the Dong Family once; he suffered a major setback and ultimately gave up on Suiyuan."

Tang Ye knew the Dong Family was deeply rooted in Suiyuan, but he hadn't expected the Dong Family's influence to be so powerful that even Bi Danian didn't dare to act rashly back then.

Finance Hotel.

After County Magistrate Gao Hong finished playing mahjong with the Director of the County Finance Bureau Yang Guoliang, they drank together in a private room.

"County Magistrate Gao, once the Finance Hotel is sold, we will have lost one of our main bases."

Gao Hong nodded slightly, "Tang Ye just took office as Executive Deputy County Magistrate and is full of ambition. When you work under him, you must know how to temporarily avoid the sharp edge."

Yang Guoliang said, "Regarding the Finance Hotel, I plan to contact Dong Tianbao; he has always been very interested. He has already given his promise and is willing to put up a portion of the money to grease the wheels."

Gao Hong remained calm, "Old Yang, I suggest that during this special period, you shouldn't overreach."

Yang Guoliang said softly: "Don't worry. I have an idea: if the conflict between Tang Ye and the Dong Family intensifies, what will the consequences be?"

Gao Hong was stunned for a moment.

Looking at Yang Guoliang's face, he suddenly felt it was repulsive.

He thought to himself, this person is hypocritical and sinister; I must distance myself from him, otherwise I might be dragged down by him.

After comprehensive mobilization and meticulous preparation, they finally awaited the inspection of Suiyuan by Municipal Party Secretary Zhou Chengwu.

The West City Development Project was the focus of this inspection. On the south side of the Haihua Century City project, a temporary parking lot had been cleared, and an exhibition area had been set up, with large standing signs displaying the future plans for West City.

The sky was exceptionally clear today with high visibility; the cold wind blew, brushing against their faces with a bone-scraping sting.

The phone in Tang Ye's pocket vibrated; he glanced at it and saw it was a call from a County Letters and Calls Bureau Cadre.

"County Magistrate Tang, I am reporting something to you. Dong Weiqing's family members are key subjects under the surveillance of the Police Station and our Letters and Calls Bureau. Early this morning, we discovered that Dong Weiqing's parents, wife, and children were not at home. They are very likely to intercept the motorcade to file a complaint."

Tang Ye frowned; he had an impression of Dong Weiqing, related to the sky-high price of 750,000 per pine tree.

After Chen Chu was investigated, Dong Weiqing fell to his death; after an investigation by the County Public Security Bureau, it was ruled a suicide.

However, Dong Weiqing's family members believed that Dong Weiqing did not commit suicide and had caused a scene at the County Government several times.

Tang Ye hurriedly found Han Guangyao and reported softly, "Secretary Han, I heard that Dong Weiqing's family members have gone missing; they are very likely to intercept Secretary Zhou's motorcade to file a complaint."

Han Guangyao immediately called Wan Ming, "County Magistrate Wan, it is said that Dong Weiqing's family has slipped out of surveillance. You must attach great importance to this, organize capable police forces, and control the ten or so old petitioners in the urban area. This is a political task; you know the gravity of it."

Wan Ming did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly called the Political Commissar, "Today is a special time; except for the window departments, everyone else is to go out."

Tang Ye had doubts about the Dong Weiqing case, but since it wasn't work under his direct supervision, he hadn't paid much attention to it.

Tang Ye had spent a lot of energy on today's research activity; if something went wrong because of this matter, it would mean all his efforts had been in vain.

As things stood, Tang Ye could only pray silently, hoping that Heaven wouldn't play a joke on him.

At nine-twenty-eight, the shadows of two small cars appeared within his line of sight.

Both cars were Audis, landing steadily in front of everyone.

Han Guangyao was all smiles, leading the team members to greet them.

After Zhou Chengwu got out of the car, he shook hands with everyone one by one, then walked to the display board.

Han Guangyao patiently introduced the basic planning, construction ideas, and progress schedule to Zhou Chengwu.

Zhou Chengwu had an inscrutable expression, asking questions from time to time.

Han Guangyao had made preparations, and his answers were quite appropriate.

For some questions that were not comprehensive enough, Tang Ye would stand to the side and add a few words softly.

Zhou Chengwu then walked to the construction site of Haihua Century City, putting on a hard hat before entering.

The construction site did not stop operations because of the Municipal Party Secretary's arrival.

Zhou Chengwu saw Zhu Junting and shook her hand, "Boss Zhu, the construction progress of Haihua Century City is beyond my expectations. Once the new city is completed, it will have the scale of a medium-sized city."

Hearing Zhou Chengwu's encouragement, Zhu Junting felt a surge of joy, "Thanks to the support of the Suiyuan Government, our work is going very smoothly. Please rest assured, Secretary Zhou, we will definitely speed up and strive to complete the first phase of the project early."

Zhou Chengwu said, "Not only must you pay attention to speed, but you must also focus on quality. The city is very concerned about the talent-attraction value of the Suiyuan National Demonstration Base; you must be mentally prepared to undertake the demographic dividend. This is a rare development opportunity for Suiyuan."

Municipal Party Committee Secretary-General Du Chengfeng and County Party Secretary Han Guangyao stood on the left and right of Zhou Chengwu respectively.

Under Zhou Chengwu's art of language, it was as if the construction site before them had already turned into high-rise buildings.

County Magistrate Gao Hong stood behind Han Guangyao, his mood extremely complex.

Back when he first served as County Magistrate, he also had the desire to make achievements.

However, he always felt constrained.

He had never felt that Han Guangyao could accomplish anything.

But in fact, Han Guangyao had reached the level he dreamed of.

Zhou Chengwu suddenly turned to Gao Hong, "County Magistrate Gao, the County Party Committee has made the decision, and the specific implementation is the business of the County Government. Do you have the confidence to do a good job with West City?"

Zhou Chengwu addressed Han Guangyao as Old Han, while addressing Gao Hong as County Magistrate Gao.

This seemingly subtle difference revealed the weight of the two men in the heart of Zhou Chengwu.

Gao Hong quickly adjusted his mindset, "Please rest assured, Secretary. The city has helped Suiyuan resolve the infrastructure, and once the enterprises land one after another, the value of this land will at least double. We have the confidence to manage the West City well."

Zhou Chengwu held up his index finger and pointed it into the air a few times, "Land is the wealth of the Government and the people. With this fertile soil full of vitality, there is no need to worry about a lack of development potential. Although the state controls land very tightly, our thinking must be more liberated."

First, grasp what the state permits; second, understand what the state does not permit; third, analyze matters that the state has neither permitted nor opposed.

Especially the third point, which requires us to rack our brains, liberate our thinking, and improve our governing ability."

Several accompanying Reporters quickly recorded Zhou Chengwu's speech.

Tang Ye, however, was somewhat worried.

Because there was a ticking time bomb that could detonate at any moment.

After inspecting Century City, they immediately headed to the Industrial Park, and finally moved toward the Old City.

They were about to enter the urban area.

Several people suddenly rushed out from the side of the road and blocked the path of the motorcade.

Tang Ye thought to himself, it really is a case of fearing something and having it happen!
