Chapter 1207

River Embankment Project? Su Xinghui couldn't help but ponder. Could this be the reason he was arrested? As far as he knew, there were quite a few "tofu-dreg" projects for river embankments in this era. During the 1998 flood fighting, there were breaches in the embankments in Qingyang City. Su Xinghui didn't remember which county specifically, but maybe it was this Qingxi County.

If that were the case, then the problem would be huge. The issue involved water conservancy, so it was no small matter. Repairing an embankment could easily cost tens of millions. If things went wrong, it could involve a shocking case. When encountering such things, what wouldn't those people do?

Arresting him for prostitution might just be a warning. If Jiang Zhaoyang still didn't give up, there might be even more vicious methods waiting for him. It was not uncommon for people to "commit suicide" in detention centers.

The urgent task now was to get the person out first. In someone else's detention center, if too much time passed, who knew what might happen to Jiang Zhaoyang?

Su Xinghui said, "Mayor Li, then please help me ask again to see if we can get the person out first. No matter how much the fine is, I'll pay it."

Upon hearing this, Li Jun knew that the relationship between Jiang Zhaoyang and Su Xinghui was extraordinary. Since that was the case, Li Jun had to help him with all his might no matter what. He nodded and called Xu Yufu again, asking if he could get the person out.

After hanging up, Li Jun said, "Mayor Su, don't be anxious. Wait a moment; Xu Yufu said he would go and ask."

Su Xinghui said, "Thank you, Mayor Li."

Li Jun smiled and said, "Mayor Su, don't be polite with me. What is this little matter? I don't even know if I can be of any help."

Su Xinghui said, "This matter is a small thing to you, but it's a big thing to us. If it weren't for you, we would be stranded in Qingyang City, not knowing who to turn to."

Li Jun knew that this was actually Su Xinghui being polite. With his background, if he found any leader to make a phone call to the main leaders of Qingyang City, this matter would be solved. Therefore, he didn't claim credit. He was very happy to be able to build a good relationship with Su Xinghui.

Li Jun smiled and said, "Mayor Su, don't be polite. Come to think of it, I should thank you. If it weren't for you, who knows when our Qingyang City would have a Changjiangdaqiao? I want to thank you on behalf of the more than six million people of Qingyang City!"

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "This isn't just your Qingyang City benefiting unilaterally; it's a mutually beneficial matter. I hope that our two sides can strengthen economic cooperation and develop together by relying on this Changjiangdaqiao."

Li Jun nodded and said, "That's for sure. Once this Changjiangdaqiao and this highway are built, I estimate that the economies of our two cities will have great development."

While the two were chatting, the phone rang. Li Jun hurriedly answered it. Sure enough, it was Xu Yufu calling. Li Jun listened to the phone, saying "uh-huh" while nodding, but his brows furrowed.

After hanging up, Li Jun said to Su Xinghui, "Xu Yufu said he asked, and this matter is not easy to handle. The public security department not only wants to fine him three thousand but also detain him for half a month, and there can be no flexibility."

Zhang Bin was anxious. "Even if it were real prostitution, detaining him for a week or so would be a lot. Why detain him for half a month?"

Li Jun didn't take offense. He said, "They said that when they arrested Jiang Zhaoyang, Jiang Zhaoyang resisted, the circumstances were very serious, and his attitude was very bad, so he needs to be well-educated. Detention is considered light. They said that according to the nature of Jiang Zhaoyang's actions, sentencing him to re-education through labor wouldn't be too much."

Zhang Bin said indignantly, "They dare? This is too much!"

Su Xinghui said, "Zhang Bin, don't take your anger out on Mayor Li!"

Only then did Zhang Bin realize he had been a bit unseemly. He said to Li Jun, "Mayor Li, don't misunderstand. I'm not aiming this at you."

Li Jun waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. I understand your mood. They are indeed a bit too outrageous."

Zhang Bin said, "If he is really detained for half a month, Senior Brother Jiang's family will be in an uproar, and I don't know how his unit will punish him."

When Zhang Bin called Su Xinghui, Jiang Zhaoyang's family already knew the news. Hearing that Jiang Zhaoyang had engaged in prostitution, Jiang Zhaoyang's wife immediately cried and took their son back to her maiden home. His parents were also honest and ordinary staff cadres. Hearing that their son had engaged in prostitution, they were so angry they almost fainted, and now they were at a loss.

If it weren't for Zhang Bin having a good relationship with Jiang Zhaoyang and taking the initiative to help him, no one would have stood up for Jiang Zhaoyang. If Jiang Zhaoyang were really detained for half a month, Jiang Zhaoyang's family would really be in an uproar. ===== CHAPTER 1209 =====
