Chapter 94

Su Xinghui said, "Fine, then let’s set off early tomorrow morning, shall we?"

Lu Xiaoya, Deputy Manager Li, and Yu Gaoshan all nodded in agreement.

Zhang Kaishan stood up and said, "Then I’ll go back first. I need to prepare, and you should also get some rest early."

Su Xinghui then said to Xu Xiaoguang, "Xiaoguang, then you take County Magistrate Zhang and Zhang Cheng back. I’ll have a few more words with my cousin."

Xu Xiaoguang agreed and went out with Zhang Kaishan and his son.

After Zhang Kaishan and his party left, Su Xinghui said to Deputy Manager Li and Yu Gaoshan, "Manager Li, Brother Gaoshan, you have suffered today. I know you must be dissatisfied with this result, but the situation in the county is like this right now. It’s not very realistic to expect them to be punished very severely all at once."

"However, this situation is slowly changing. I guarantee that when the time is right, those people will all receive the punishment they deserve. Not one will escape."

Deputy Manager Li was someone who had been around the official circles, so he was very clear about this helplessness. Sometimes, even if provincial leaders spoke up, it might be difficult to get Tao Yanbin and his group any severe punishment. After all, they hadn't caused any serious consequences. What could be done? Even if he were stripped of his police uniform, what of it? As long as his father was still in office, who knew when he would put it back on?

Yu Gaoshan had been in business for several years and was also very perceptive. He knew that the common people shouldn't fight with officials. That this matter could be handled this way today was because Su Xinghui’s connections were strong enough. Therefore, he wouldn't fuss about anything, especially since Su Xinghui had said he would vent their anger for them later.

Both of them nodded to show their understanding. Lu Xiaoya, however, was a bit indignant: "Those traffic police are really too outrageous. Does your county just indulge them like this?"

Just now, with Ji Tao and Zhang Kaishan present, Lu Xiaoya hadn't said this. Now, in front of these few people, she had no reservations and spoke her mind.

Su Xinghui smiled bitterly: "Although the traffic police here are outrageous, they usually aren't this excessive. At most, they fine you and release the vehicle. This time, it was a matter I provoked, and it involves very complex struggles, so it’s impossible to handle it that simply."

Deputy Manager Li advised Lu Xiaoya: "Xiaoya, Little Su is right. It’s already good that it could be handled this way. How do you think that Tao Yanbin could be handled?"

Lu Xiaoya said, "At the very least, fire him! He shouldn't be a policeman anymore!"

Deputy Manager Li said, "Even if he were fired, what of it? His father is the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee and the Public Security Bureau Chief. Is it hard to recruit him back into the Public Security Bureau after the storm blows over? Even if he isn't a policeman, would the police in the county dare not show him respect? So, it’s useless."

Lu Xiaoya said, "So just let him get away with it?"

Su Xinghui said meaningfully, "It’s impossible for them to get away with it for too long."

Hearing Su Xinghui’s words, Lu Xiaoya seemed to understand something. She nodded thoughtfully.

Su Xinghui stood up and said, "Then I’ll go back first. You all get a good rest tonight. I’ll come here to meet you at six o’clock tomorrow morning."

Returning home, Guo Suhua said with surprise and joy: "Xinghui, why are you back at this time? You didn't even call home when you came back!"

Su Xinghui naturally wouldn't say what he came back for, so as not to worry his parents. He smiled and said, "County Magistrate Zhang asked me to go to Jiangcheng with him tomorrow to handle some business. It just so happened that Xu Xiaoguang drove back this afternoon, so I took his car."

Regardless, their son hadn't been back for a long time. Now that he was back, Su Wenjun and Guo Suhua were still very happy.

Guo Suhua asked, "Have you eaten? Mom will go cook you some noodles."

Su Xinghui said, "I just got back to the county, and I ate outside with Xu Xiaoguang."

Su Wenjun asked casually, "What are you going to Jiangcheng with County Magistrate Zhang for tomorrow?"

Su Xinghui said, "It’s just that the township is carrying out agricultural reform, and County Magistrate Zhang and I are going to the provincial capital to report our work."

Guo Suhua said happily: "Our son is really promising."

Su Wenjun also nodded with satisfaction: "Then you must work hard."

Su Xinghui spent over an hour writing a report on the agricultural industrialization work in Menguhuling Township during this period before going to sleep.

After staying at home for one night, Su Xinghui got up at five o’clock on Monday morning. After washing up, he ran to the County Party Committee guesthouse.

At this time, Lu Xiaoya and the others had also gotten up. The three drivers had also gone to the Traffic Police Brigade to drive the three vehicles back, and the goods on the vehicles were intact.

After everyone finished washing up, Zhang Kaishan also arrived in his car, and the group set off for Jiangcheng.

It was a little past six when they set off. After a journey of over an hour, they arrived in Jiangcheng. Yu Gaoshan said he had to deliver goods to several restaurants, so he parted ways with them first.

Deputy Manager Li had to escort the goods back to the store, so Lu Xiaoya got into Zhang Kaishan’s car, and they took her to Jiangcheng University.

When getting out of the car, Lu Xiaoya said to Su Xinghui, "You don't count as having come to see me today."

Su Xinghui nodded: "Fine, I’ll definitely come to see you next time I have time."

Lu Xiaoya nodded with satisfaction, said "thank you" to Peng Qiang who was driving, waved goodbye to Zhang Kaishan, and entered the campus. It was not yet eight o’clock, so she could just make it to class.

Su Xinghui and Zhang Kaishan hadn't eaten breakfast yet, so they had Peng Qiang find a breakfast stall on the side of the road. After eating breakfast and waiting for a while, it was almost nine o’clock.

Two or three minutes before nine o’clock, Su Xinghui and Zhang Kaishan arrived at Lu Zhenghong’s office.

Lu Zhenghong had just finished talking with a cadre and was seeing him to the door. Seeing the two arrive, he smiled and told them to sit. He was even preparing to pour tea for them, but Su Xinghui quickly stood up to take the teacup, poured two cups of tea himself, refilled Lu Zhenghong’s teacup, and then sat down.

Lu Zhenghong had been smiling as he watched Su Xinghui do all this. After he sat down, he asked, "Comrade Kaishan, how is the agricultural industrialization pilot work going in your area?"

Zhang Kaishan said, "Secretary-General, I have been to Menguhuling Township a few times during this period, but Little Su is more familiar with the specific situation. Let Little Su report to you."

Lu Zhenghong nodded and looked at Su Xinghui.

Su Xinghui said, "Secretary-General, during this period, our township has been carrying out special breeding or special planting projects suitable for local conditions in various villages according to the suggestions of experts from the Agricultural University..."

Su Xinghui reported the current situation in Menguhuling Township to Lu Zhenghong truthfully. He had personally participated in and even led these things, so he knew them by heart. He reported various data off the top of his head, and Lu Zhenghong nodded frequently to show his approval.
