Chapter 1595

Actually, Ling Anguo came specifically to find Zhao Yangang. He had paged Zhao Yangang several times today, but Zhao Yangang hadn't returned the call. In the evening, he called Zhao Yangang's home again, and Zhao Yangang's wife said he hadn't returned yet.

Waiting until past nine o'clock, Ling Anguo went out and walked around the county party committee compound. He estimated that Zhao Yangang should be back at this time, and he had something to say to Zhao Yangang.

He walked to the office building, looked up, and saw the light shining through the window of Zhao Yangang's office. He knew that Zhao Yangang must be back, so he went upstairs to find Zhao Yangang.

Ling Anguo didn't expect that he knocked on the door and scared Zhao Yangang so much. Fortunately, his body was still good; otherwise, if he had a heart attack and died in the office, he would probably have a good reputation for working overtime and dying in the line of duty, and it was possible to be set up as a typical example.

Zhao Yangang looked at the telephone on the desk. He was a bit depressed. *You, Ling Anguo, why did you come at this time? If Fang Qing returns the call, should I answer it or not? If I answer it, what should I say? *

So, he wanted to send Ling Anguo away early. He forced a smile and said to Ling Anguo, "County Magistrate, why are you still walking around outside so late? Go home and rest early."

But Ling Anguo sat on the sofa, putting on a posture of having a heart-to-heart talk, which made Zhao Yangang even more depressed.

"Old Zhao, where did you go today? Why didn't you return the pager?"

Zhao Yangang said, "The pager was out of battery today, and I didn't see it, so I didn't hear the pager at all. I was also strange, why was it so idle today, not a single page? Just now I changed the battery and was startled, why were so many people paging me."

Zhao Yangang avoided talking about his whereabouts, and Ling Anguo naturally wouldn't pursue it. He didn't want to pursue this today anyway.

"Old Zhao, do you know what happened today?"

Zhao Yangang felt anxious in his heart. *This old Ling, why hasn't he left yet? * But he could only answer patiently, "I just came to the office to return the call. I returned a call to Old Shi of the Environmental Protection Bureau and heard him tell me the process of the matter. I criticized them severely and asked them to handle the relevant personnel seriously. Tomorrow morning, let him and Old Wu report the self-criticisms and handling results to me."

If it were normal times, he would definitely give a long speech, expressing his indignation at such things to the fullest and clearing himself completely. But now he had no leisure to accompany Ling Anguo to talk; he wished he could explain the matter clearly as soon as possible and let Ling Anguo go back quickly.

But Ling Anguo didn't know Zhao Yangang's thoughts. He waved his hand and said, "Old Zhao, don't stand there. Come and sit down, let's have a good talk."

Zhao Yangang was depressed. *Who has time to have a good talk with you? * But since Ling Anguo said so, he could only sit down.

Ling Anguo said, "Old Zhao, the practice of the Environmental Protection Bureau and the Labor Bureau is a clear act of extortion and bribery, which seriously affects the economic construction of our Changshan County. You are their supervisor. You must strictly require them for such things and there must not be a next time!"

Zhao Yangang nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes, I also have responsibility for this matter. I didn't strictly require them in normal times and didn't educate them enough."

Ling Anguo said earnestly, "Old Zhao, our Changshan County being able to have the current economic development situation is hard-won. As county leaders, we must pay more attention to maintaining such an excellent situation."

Zhao Yangang sneered in his heart, *No matter how good this economic development situation is, what does it have to do with me? You handed over all the profitable supervised work to Su Xinghui. How can this make people convinced? *

Zhao Yangang nodded perfunctorily, "Hmm, County Magistrate, I understand."

How could Ling Anguo not hear Zhao Yangang's perfunctoriness? But he still had to make an effort. As the squad leader of the county government, he also had to try his best to maintain the unity of the squad.

"Old Zhao, I asked County Magistrate Su about his opinion on this matter today. His meaning is to leave this matter to you to handle. He is a person with a strong sense of the overall situation, and everything is prioritized by unity and stability. Now the most important work in Changshan County is economic construction..."

Hearing Ling Anguo say this big pile of words made Zhao Yangang a bit shocked. Did Su Xinghui really say that? Zhao Yangang asked himself if it were him, he wouldn't be able to do this.

But Zhao Yangang overturned his thoughts in a blink of an eye. This must not be Su Xinghui's true words; he must have only said so in front of Ling Anguo.

Just when Zhao Yangang was letting his imagination run wild, the telephone rang suddenly. In the dead of night, this ringing was particularly harsh. Zhao Yangang had almost forgotten about the phone. Suddenly hearing the phone ring without any psychological preparation, he shuddered all over.

Ling Anguo said, "Old Zhao, what's wrong with you?"

Zhao Yangang reacted. This must be Fang Qing returning the call. He stared blankly at the phone, not knowing whether to answer it or not.

The phone rang several times. Ling Anguo said, "Old Zhao, answer the phone."

Zhao Yangang then got up and answered the phone, but because the phone rang for too long, it had automatically hung up, and a busy signal sounded on the other end.

Zhao Yangang said to Ling Anguo, "The phone is disconnected."

He put the receiver back on the phone. Just after putting it down, he heard his pager beeping. He took the pager from his waist and looked at it. It was a number from the city. He knew this must be Fang Qing calling his office phone and no one answering, so she paged him again.

Zhao Yangang didn't know whether to return this call or not. Ling Anguo was still sitting here. He couldn't say anything in front of Ling Anguo.

Seeing Zhao Yangang looking embarrassed, Ling Anguo understood. He got up and said, "Alright, Old Zhao, it's getting late, I should go back. Think carefully about what I just said. You should also go back and rest early."

Zhao Yangang nodded and said, "I understand, County Magistrate."

Ling Anguo went out and closed the door. Zhao Yangang walked to the door, listening to the movement outside. After a few minutes, he opened the door, poked his head out, looked at the situation outside, and the corridor was empty.

Zhao Yangang's pager rang several more times. He quickly closed the door and locked it before returning to the phone to return the call.

Fang Qing's lazy voice sounded on the other end, "Old Zhao, where are you? Why did it take so long to return the call?"

Zhao Yangang said, "I'm in the office."

Fang Qing said, "Then why didn't you answer when I called your office phone just now?"

Zhao Yangang said, "You don't know, just now that old thing Ling Anguo ran to my office and chatted with me for a long time. Think about it, can I answer your call?"

Fang Qing said, "What did this old thing run over to tell you? Has he left now?"

Zhao Yangang said, "He was quite sensible. When you paged me, he left. What could he say? It's just that set of things, asking me to consider the overall situation."

Fang Qing said, "Tsk, this old immortal, he only knows how to say that. Then when he was dividing the work, why didn't he consider the overall situation?"

Zhao Yangang asked, "Where are you now?"
