Chapter 2922
These past few days, Baozhou City was still quite calm, and all work was proceeding normally, without any signs of a storm approaching.
However, Miao Leshan always felt somewhat restless because he had told Liu Xin that he would frame Xin Jing and Su Xinghui in the past two days. That night, he also knew that Liu Xin had invited Xin Jing and Su Xinghui to dinner. He originally thought that Liu Xin had already accomplished this, but the next day there was no news at all, which was frighteningly calm.
Miao Leshan had called Liu Xin countless times in the past two days, but Liu Xin only answered the first time. She said she had gone to Yinshan County to inspect the large ski resort project and it was inconvenient to talk, and then she hung up the phone without waiting for Miao Leshan to speak again.
Then he called Liu Xin's phone again, and it couldn't get through; it was always the sound of being out of the service area.
He inquired with the Yinshan County government, and the Yinshan County government said that Director Liu was indeed in Yinshan County inspecting the large ski resort project. She had already gone into the mountains, where the signal was poor, and her mobile phone might not have a signal.
Miao Leshan knew that the large ski resort was in the mountains, and the altitude was quite high, so the mobile phone signal was indeed not very good. Therefore, it was normal that Liu Xin's phone couldn't get through. Perhaps Liu Xin couldn't be contacted because of this matter. This made Miao Leshan feel a little more relaxed in his heart. He felt that things shouldn't be abnormal.
That night, Zhang Dacheng came to Miao Leshan's house again. He was naturally here to urge the matter of the mine resuming work. He had prepared 20 million in cash and had already paid Miao Leshan 10 million in advance. However, more than ten days had passed, and there was still no news, which made him unable to help but feel somewhat anxious.
Therefore, Zhang Dacheng came to Miao Leshan's house to ask for news.
Of course, Zhang Dacheng still wouldn't come empty-handed. He still brought expensive gifts. Anyway, he was prepared to take out 20 million; what did these gifts count for?
Miao Leshan also knew that Zhang Dacheng was here to urge this matter. He was somewhat impatient. However, considering the gifts Zhang Dacheng brought, he restrained his temper and received Zhang Dacheng in his study.
Miao Leshan smiled and said, "Dacheng, what? Don't you trust me? If you don't trust me, take that card back."
The money Zhang Dacheng gave Miao Leshan was deposited on a bank card and handed to Miao Leshan, which was why Miao Leshan said this.
Zhang Dacheng quickly said, "Mayor Miao is joking. How could I not trust you? I'm just here to ask how the progress is going. Time is money!"
The phrase "time is money" was not an empty phrase for mines. Every day Zhang Dacheng's mine operated, the income was at least tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, so Zhang Dacheng had to be anxious.
Miao Leshan said, "Don't be anxious. This matter is very tricky, so the progress isn't that fast. Wait a few more days. We are looking for connections. Don't worry, we will definitely be able to settle this for you. If we can't settle it for you, I will return the money to you."
Zhang Dacheng said, "I believe you can settle it. What else do you need me to do?"
Miao Leshan said, "There's nothing you need to do now. Just prepare the money. Once we have cleared the connections, you will need to spend some money."
Zhang Dacheng quickly smiled and said, "That's for sure. I have already prepared this money. Whenever you need it, I will give it to you."
Miao Leshan nodded and said, "Okay, I will notify you when the time comes."
Zhang Dacheng then stood up to say goodbye. Although he didn't get a definite answer from Miao Leshan, he felt much more at ease. After all, this was a promise made to him by an Executive Vice Mayor, and Miao Leshan's tone was very certain. It was precisely this certain tone that made Zhang Dacheng feel that there was no big problem with this matter.
Zhang Dacheng was a money-worshiper, and the thing he liked most was money. He firmly believed in the principle that money can make ghosts push the mill. This time he took out 20 million, and he believed that this money could move anyone.
Of course, he didn't move Xin Jing last time, but he felt that this was just an exception. Moreover, in his heart, Xin Jing was not a very important figure. His money couldn't move her, but his money could knock her down.
Miao Leshan had hinted to him when he received his bank card last time that in order to achieve his goal, he could knock down everyone standing in their way.
After Zhang Dacheng left, Miao Leshan stayed in his study for a long time. He was far from as certain in his study as he was in front of Zhang Dacheng just now. He still felt very restless in his heart. He didn't know why he thought of the political storm in Yanzhong City last year.
In that political storm, even Vice Governor Lu fell, which fully proved Su Xinghui's energy. Miao Leshan couldn't help but feel some regret. Was he somewhat rash?
However, Miao Leshan's regret was only fleeting. His conflict with Su Xinghui had reached an irreconcilable point. His interests had been greatly damaged by Su Xinghui, and his prestige had also been greatly damaged. It could be said that he and Su Xinghui, as well as Xin Jing, were already in a life-and-death struggle.
He was also quite confident in his design this time because Su Xinghui had today because of the power of his father-in-law, Lu Zhenghong, the Provincial Party Secretary of Qinxi. If he caused such a scandal, Lu Zhenghong would abandon him, and he would lose his energy. Miao Leshan would have nothing to fear from him.
Thinking of this, Miao Leshan's mood relaxed. It seemed he had thought too much. Perhaps it was because he had been too nervous lately, and it just happened that Liu Xin went on a business trip to Yinshan County, which caused this restless emotion.
The next morning, Miao Leshan walked to his office to work as usual with his majestic eight-character gait. Just after starting work, Wang Shangqian brought some vouchers to ask him to sign. Miao Leshan looked at these vouchers and signed them quickly. Wang Shangqian was Miao Leshan's confidant, and Miao Leshan basically wouldn't reject the vouchers he brought.
Before he finished signing these vouchers, the phone on Miao Leshan's desk rang. He answered the phone, and it was Shi Fengnian calling. Miao Leshan quickly nodded and said, "Secretary, are you looking for me? Okay, I'll be there immediately."
Miao Leshan put down the phone and accelerated the speed of signing. In less than two minutes, he signed the remaining vouchers. He handed the stack of vouchers to Wang Shangqian and stood up to go to Shi Fengnian's office.
As soon as he entered Shi Fengnian's office, Miao Leshan was stunned because there was more than just him in Shi Fengnian's office; there were also several men with serious expressions sitting there. The atmosphere in the office was very solemn, which made Miao Leshan's footsteps stop involuntarily.
Shi Fengnian also said with a very serious expression, "Vice Mayor Miao, come in."
Miao Leshan forcibly calmed himself and walked into Shi Fengnian's office. A middle-aged man whom Miao Leshan didn't recognize stood up. He said seriously to Miao Leshan, "May I ask if you are Miao Leshan?"
Miao Leshan nodded and forced a smile, saying, "Yes, I am Miao Leshan. May I ask who you are?"
The middle-aged man took out his credentials, showed them to Miao Leshan, and said, "We are from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. You are suspected of multiple disciplinary and illegal acts, so we need to conduct a necessary investigation on you. Please come with us..."
Miao Leshan felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained. His feet felt a bit weak, and he could no longer hear clearly what the middle-aged man was still saying to him.
He signed his name on several sheets of paper under the guidance of another young man in a daze, and then he was taken downstairs by several people from the Commission for Discipline Inspection, got into a black Audi sedan, and the sedan drove away in a cloud of dust.
Although the people from the Commission for Discipline Inspection didn't disturb more people, the scene of them taking Miao Leshan away was still seen by several municipal government staff members.
Although they didn't take any compulsory measures against Miao Leshan, they surrounded Miao Leshan with serious expressions. Miao Leshan's face was bloodless, and anyone could see that Miao Leshan must have had an accident.
Subsequently, Shi Fengnian presided over the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee meeting and announced the news that Executive Vice Mayor Miao Leshan had been "double-regulated" by the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection.
