Chapter 228 The Most Important Matter
Chapter 228 The Most Important Matter
David slowly put down his cup, his eyes darted around rapidly, he picked up a cigarette and put it in his mouth, then paused for a moment and forgot to light it.
Wu Maocai lit Dawei's cigarette with some trepidation, bowed and took a half step back, feeling uneasy.
It remains to be seen whether they will be met with praise or furious wrath from County Magistrate Chen.
After all, she was County Magistrate Chen's ex-wife.
David took two puffs of his cigarette, his emotions churning.
He couldn't describe the feeling that Xie Liting had gone through.
I originally thought that Xie Liting's departure to a new place would be a good ending.
But there was one thing he hadn't considered, which was what Wu Maocai had just said: what if Dawei continued to rise in rank while Xie Liting was having a hard time outside, and one day Xie Liting came knocking on his door?
Although they are already divorced.
But what if Xie Liting goes to Dawei?
People were pursuing him every day, which not only made it impossible for Dawei to start a new relationship, but also caused his past to be brought up repeatedly.
This is definitely not a good thing for someone in a high position.
With her face disfigured, Xie Liting will probably have to hide away and won't dare to come out and see people.
In a way, Zhou Xiangzhang's wife had her reasons, and Xie Liting deserved what she got.
None of them are good people.
Even without anyone pushing her, Zhou Xiangzhang's wife would instinctively hate Xie Liting and seek revenge against her.
From this perspective, Wu Maocai cannot be blamed.
Moreover, this incident will help push Zhou Xiangzhang further downfall.
Thinking of this, David stroked his chin and slowly said, "This is between the two of them, and it has nothing to do with us."
Now that the matter has come to light, the police should follow the proper procedures.
We shouldn't get involved, and there's no need to even discuss it.
Let's focus our energy on the fruit company.
in addition……"
David shifted his body and adjusted his sitting posture.
Wu Maocai secretly breathed a sigh of relief; this time, his gamble had paid off.
Because I couldn't communicate this matter with County Chief Chen beforehand, it's not something to be proud of, and it would be wrong to say it.
Seeing that County Chief Chen was shifting his position as if he had something to say, he immediately sat down, picked up his notebook, and prepared to take notes.
"There's something important I need to tell you first."
The structure of the county's five-person task force has now been basically adjusted.
Minister Xiao of the County Organization Department and Yao Zhan, the newly appointed Secretary of the County Discipline Inspection Commission, are both good comrades who want to get things done and are capable of doing so.
Zhou Xiangzhang was investigated by the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, but nothing was found out, and he was banned from leaving Yuanshan County. Then his wife did this. I believe that the comrades from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection will soon return to Yuanshan County.
Two immediate family members have been involved in accidents one after the other.
Zhou Xiangzhang was speechless and unable to defend himself.
At that point, Zhou Xiangzhang will likely face direct detention.
He can no longer hold the position of county discipline inspection secretary.
Regardless of who succeeds Zhou Xiangzhang in the future, I will have absolute say in the five-person group.
There's only Qi Dahai left... You can think of another way.
Ideally, we should be able to reach an agreement and cooperate effectively.
Wu Maocai took notes intently, nodding occasionally to acknowledge receipt.
David flicked the ash from his cigarette and continued, "If he's stubborn and insists on following Zhou Xiangzhang down this dark path, then you..."
Let's see him off.
Originally, I was thinking that if this full-time deputy secretary got into trouble again, Yuanshan County's reputation would be really bad, and I myself would also bear the blame.
Some people will say that I, Chen Dawei, am a heartless person, a petty person who cannot tolerate others, and an executioner.
As soon as I arrived, all the key leaders of the county party committee were dismissed.
From now on, wherever I go, I will be criticized.
So I still want to give him a chance; you go and talk to him.
But if we really can't reach an agreement, then we'll have to break off all contact.
It's nothing...
Anyway, it's already like this.
To improve the situation in Yuanshan County, a price must be paid.
These people deserved it; I have no guilty conscience.
Wu Maocai put a checkmark on Qi Dahai's name with his pen: "Received, I will take care of it immediately."
David tapped his finger on the table: "There's one more thing."
This is a major, top-priority task that we will focus on in the second half of the year.
Wu Maocai stared intently at Dawei: "It's about the fruit company, isn't it? Don't worry, I've been keeping an eye on it every day..."
David waved his hand: "No!"
"That is..."
"It's a highway."
Wu Maocai's pen fell to the ground with a thud. He paused for a moment, then quickly picked it up and nervously wrote the word "high-speed" on his notebook.
"Could you contact the Transportation Bureau for me?"
Let's have a meeting first.
Let's discuss the feasibility of building an expressway from Yuanshan County to Meihua City.
It would be best to hire a consulting firm, put one out for bidding, and have them produce a feasibility report for the highway construction. It would cost some money; you need to find a professional team for this kind of thing.
Next, I asked the Transportation Bureau to submit a proposal, which was then submitted layer by layer up to the provincial level, and I personally handled the lobbying...
David explained the whole idea to Wu Maocai.
Wu Maocai was extremely excited; this was a momentous event.
If it's done, Chen Dawei and his name Wu Maocai will be forever engraved on this land.
"I understand, I understand..."
I'll go to the Transportation Bureau this afternoon.
Let's discuss this matter first, and then we'll go find Qi Dahai tonight.
County Magistrate Chen...
If I may be criticized, please don't accuse me of being a sycophant.
I really chose the right person to follow.
David smiled faintly and watched Wu Maocai leave.
He leaned back in his chair, let out a heavy sigh, and images of Xie Liting from the past flashed through his mind.
What impressed him most was not his wedding night.
Instead, after he was released from the detention room and returned home, intending to be affectionate, Xie Liting slapped a divorce agreement in his face.
The moment of splendor and prosperity is indeed intoxicating.
But the hurt caused by kicking someone when they're down and rubbing salt into their wounds is even more unforgettable.
Deep down, I felt some sympathy for Xie Liting's plight.
But the old David is dead.
He is now strapped to a somewhat dilapidated but still steadily moving locomotive in Yuanshan County. He has to repair the locomotive, refuel it, and control its direction.
One wrong move and you could lose everything.
If I don't fulfill my godfather's three-year agreement.
He might die.
It will be worse than before.
No one will sympathize with him then; instead, more people will trample on him—there's no doubt about that, he's already experienced it.
David ultimately chose not to blame Wu Maocai.
When the decision was made to use this person, we knew that Wu Maocai was a schemer and that his methods were extremely insidious.
Xie Liting's fate today was already predetermined when Wu Maocai was appointed.
……
On the other end.
Second floor of Mandala Villa, Yuanshan County.
Zhou Xiangzhang was drinking tea in a private room. He didn't have any women with him today. He sat by the window, gazing at the distant mountain scenery in a daze.
Before news of his wife assaulting someone reached him, his phone was switched off.
I need to discuss something important with Jiang Xiong in a bit and don't want to be disturbed.
