Chapter 553: The Favorite of the County Party Committee Compound!

~8 min read 1,519 words

County Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary Chen Zhiyuan arrived in a hurry, leading his people.

Seeing the scene where the person was caught red-handed, Chen Zhiyuan's heart also pounded wildly.

He had handled many cases,

but a scene like today's was a first!

There are many rules for the Discipline Inspection Commission when handling cases, and they generally act in a low-profile manner, because making a big scene would cause a stir; after all, family scandals should not be aired in public.

However, sometimes the Discipline Inspection Commission will also apprehend people in public view; this is intended to serve as a warning, admonishing everyone to keep their hands in check and not use the power in their hands to commit illegal or disciplinary acts.

"County Magistrate Tang, I just received a call from Secretary Han and have been ordered to take over this case."

"Secretary Chen, Yang Guoliang is now in your hands. If you need anything, you can contact me; I will actively cooperate with your investigation."

Chen Zhiyuan gestured to the people beside him with an expressionless face,

and then two men walked out and hauled up the limp Yang Guoliang from the ground.

At this moment, someone noticed the ground where Yang Guoliang had just been crouching was soaking wet and whispered, "Did Yang Guoliang get scared into peeing himself?"

"Heh, corrupt officials are just like that; knowing things have gone horribly wrong, their mentality just collapses."

"Yang Guoliang is stupid enough, too. Why go against Tang Ye for no reason?"

"Tang Ye just took office as Executive Deputy County Magistrate, and his first strike was to take down the Director of the Finance Bureau. He really is swift and decisive!"

"I don't agree with the term 'ruthless.' Yang Guoliang's hands aren't clean, he likes to stir up trouble, and he likes to sleep with other people's wives. A person like that deserves to be cut into a thousand pieces."

"Yang Guoliang once got drunk and boasted that there wasn't a woman in Suiyuan he wanted to have but couldn't get. From playing with sex workers to seducing unmarried women, sleeping with other people's beautiful wives, sleeping with female bosses who had a bit of charm... there wasn't a type he hadn't had. He even slept with several section-level female cadres."

"Shh, keep it down. Talk less, do more. Although Yang Guoliang has fallen, he still has people behind him!"

A group of people gathered in the courtyard, gossiping!

Not long after, the Director of the County Government Office, Zhu Kang, summoned the main heads of each department to hold an emergency meeting.

County Magistrate Gao Hong requested at the meeting that the matter of Yang Guoliang being taken away for investigation be kept confidential and not spread without authorization.

Although he knew that holding a meeting was useless, for the sake of appearances, he still had to do some damage control.

……

After the meeting ended, Tang Ye returned to his office and corrected some documents.

Receiving a call from Han Guangyao, Tang Ye put down the documents and walked into the County Party Secretary's office.

County Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary Chen Zhiyuan was also there, holding a notebook, and he nodded to greet Tang Ye proactively.

Han Guangyao, like Gao Hong, appeared to be staying out of it, but in reality, he had been paying close attention to the developments over there.

He had actually been dissatisfied with Yang Guoliang for a long time.

Tang Ye sat in front of Han Guangyao and reported in a low voice: "Secretary Han, last night Dong Weiqing's wife already admitted that Dong Weiqing's death was suicide; she knew about the poison hidden in his glasses.

Dong Weiqing had purchased an insurance policy before he died, with his two children as the beneficiaries. The reason Dong Weiqing's wife is clinging to this is not only to fight for compensation from the government and the Dong Family, but also to fight the insurance company for this payout.

As for Cai Xiangxiu and Yang Guoliang, they met years ago playing mahjong and developed into lovers. When Secretary Zhou came to Suiyuan for research, it was Yang Guoliang who secretly provided the route."

Han Guangyao said angrily: "I didn't expect Yang Guoliang to be so reckless. He dared to play petty tricks in the face of major events. What good does it do him?"

In fact, both Tang Ye and Han Guangyao could figure it out:

Yang Guoliang designed this Hidden Plot just to disgust Han Guangyao and Tang Ye.

Chen Zhiyuan opened his notebook and sighed softly: "Yang Guoliang's crimes are chilling!

Many years ago, his wife found out Yang Guoliang was philandering outside, and she suffered a mental breakdown and became depressed at home, no longer going to work at her unit.

According to preliminary understanding, the total value of the real estate he owns is nearly 5 million, and he also has a luxury car worth over 500,000.

He frequently went to public entertainment and consumption venues like the Finance Hotel, Kangjing Manor, and Mingteng Tobacco and Liquor Store, and also went to the homes of socialites to gamble in groups.

The gambling amounts were as high as several million, and the low end started at two or three hundred thousand.

It is a well-known fact in the Suiyuan gambling circle that he long-term carried hundreds of thousands in gambling funds on his person and in his car; it had become an open secret.

Many subordinate cadres and business people who had requests of Yang Guoliang took the opportunity to cater to his interests, proactively participating in the gambling games or providing him with gambling funds.

Gambling became an important tool for him to accept bribes and amass wealth."

Han Guangyao's eyes were full of anger: "Since it is a well-known fact, why did the Discipline Inspection Commission not take any action? The Discipline Inspection Department cannot wait passively; it must take the initiative to strike! This case must be investigated clearly, and the projects involved must be audited. Only by strictly rectifying the atmosphere can the situation in Suiyuan be completely reversed!"

Chen Zhiyuan's throat also felt tight.

Yang Guoliang was the Director of the Finance Bureau!

This position is very critical.

It is not something he can investigate just because he wants to!

"Secretary Han, it's not that we don't want to investigate, but there are too many obstacles."

Han Guangyao knew Chen Zhiyuan's hidden difficulties and waved his hand, "Alright, I can understand the difficulties of the work in the Discipline Inspection Department. But now that the matter has occurred, I hope you will not shirk responsibility or delay; you must provide results as soon as possible."

An embarrassed look appeared on Chen Zhiyuan's face.

Tang Ye immediately changed the subject: "Secretary Chen, I have some materials here that I will hand over to you later, hoping it will be helpful to the case!"

Chen Zhiyuan was grateful to Tang Ye for helping him out of the awkward situation and said: "Alright, I'll wait for your materials!"

"Secretary Chen, go get busy; I still have things to discuss with County Magistrate Tang," Han Guangyao instructed Chen Zhiyuan.

"Understood." Chen Zhiyuan stood up and, before leaving, cast a glance at Tang Ye.

Tang Ye is the current favorite in the County Party Committee Compound!

Tang Ye is indeed capable of storming fortresses and is worthy of Secretary Han's trust.

"This matter needs to be formed into a report to be submitted to the Municipal Party Committee," Han Guangyao said with a grave tone. "You draft the report!"

"Understood, I will submit it to you for review after I finish writing it," Tang Ye nodded in agreement.

"Yang Guoliang has serious disciplinary violations, and the position of Director of the Finance Bureau is vacant. Do you have any suggestions?" Han Guangyao probed.

Tang Ye immediately thought of Ge Yongjie: "Deputy Director Ge Yongjie works seriously and has principles; this time, he played a key role in reporting Yang Guoliang. Additionally, he and Director Gao of the Municipal Finance Bureau are from the same school, and Director Gao also appreciates this junior fellow apprentice."

Han Guangyao was thoughtful: "Have the Organization Department conduct an assessment of Comrade Ge Yongjie."

Tang Ye felt a sense of relief!

Han Guangyao's support was not obtained for no reason.

Rather.

It was won step by step through meticulous planning!

……

Chen returned to his own office.

A knock sounded at the office door.

Chen called out "Come in," and when he looked up, it was Tang Ye's Liaison Officer, Lin Heng.

"Secretary Chen, these are the materials County Magistrate Tang asked me to give to you."

"Mm, put them down, thank you for your hard work."

After Lin Heng left, Chen opened the documents, a complex look appearing in his eyes.

Judging by the thickness of the materials and the time span over which they were collected.

County Magistrate Tang's desire to "adjust" Yang Guoliang had been brewing for a long time; it was not a matter of a day or two.
