Although Xia Bingbing was not very conscious, he still heard the meaning of Fang Xin's words clearly, and knew that Lu Tao was not only going to drink the rest of the wine instead of himself, but also won two million more funds for the county, so he patted Lu Tao's shoulder with his hand drunkenly and said, "Lu Tao, thank you...... Thank you. You're a real man, I admire you......"

Before she finished speaking, her body was weak, and she was about to collapse again, but Lu Tao was quick to hold her up, and worked with Su Yetai to put her on the chair and sit down......

Next, Lu Tao started to toast from Fang Xin, drinking one group by himself, and the rest of the people drank a glass, and kept toasting, and it only took less than ten minutes to drink all the remaining nine groups of wine......

After returning to the hotel, Lu Tao helped Cai Changming and others settle the drunk Xia Bingbing, returned to his room, took a hot bath first, then drank a bottle of mineral water, and lay on the bed for about half an hour, the wine was almost awake, and then turned on the TV and started watching the evening news.

After just watching it for a few minutes, the mobile phone rang suddenly, and when I looked at the caller ID, I said that Secretary Zhou called: "Xiao Lu, you are not drunk, are you!

"Hello Secretary Zhou, I drank a little more tonight, I was a little drunk, but after just taking a hot bath, drinking a bottle of mineral water, and resting in bed for half an hour, the wine is almost sober. What about you? Haven't you rested yet?"

"No, I just came out of Peipei's house, but I received a call from Deputy Director Wei of the Provincial Public Security Department, and learned that I had arrived in the provincial capital and was going back to Songshan early tomorrow morning, so I invited me to eat fish hot pot at the 'Yule Village Restaurant' on Nanjiang East Road. This Deputy Director Wei is called Wei Gangqiang, and it turns out that he is also a soldier under me and your father, and he is one of the two soldiers who went with me to steal sugar cane and was ambushed by the enemy, and was actually pulled back from the hands of death by your father.

"Wei Gangqiang has told me many times: The person he admires and is most grateful for in this life is your father, but unfortunately he can't be contacted again. I haven't told him about your family yet, and he doesn't know that your father has died. Otherwise, you can take a taxi to the 'Yule Village Restaurant' now, I'm almost there, just call me when you get there." ”

Lu Tao didn't expect his father to have so many comrades-in-arms and subordinates who had become officials, so he was stunned for a while before he said "yes" to Zhou Yihong, and quickly got up and dressed......

Soon after Zhou Yihong hung up Lu Tao's phone, the car drove to the "Yule Village Restaurant" on Nanjiang East Road, only to see Wei Gangqiang already waiting at the door of the restaurant, while rubbing his palms uncontrollably, while raising his eyes to look around here, his face was full of anxiety, when he saw Zhou Yihong get off the car, his eyes lit up, and he immediately walked over quickly, held Zhou Yihong's hand tightly and said: "Hello old chief, I'm really embarrassed to disturb you at this time! It's just that I'm too anxious and scratching my lungs about this matter, and I have to ask you for help." When I was in the army, you cultivated and raised me, and now that I have encountered difficulties in life, the first thing that comes to mind is that you can help me. ”

Wei Gangqiang's words are not exaggerated at all: after the end of the border war, he has been following Zhou Yihong's side, with the help of Zhou Yihong, first joined the party and promoted cadres, then went to the military academy for further study, and then went back from the grassroots platoon commander, as Zhou Yihong's position in the army became higher and higher, he was also promoted all the way, until he was promoted to the regimental level before he was transferred to work in the Nanjiang Provincial Public Security Department with the help of Zhou Yihong.

Because Zhou Yihong was very appreciated by Governor Qin, Wei Gangqiang's promotion in the Public Security Department was relatively smooth, and it took less than ten years to become the deputy director......

Zhou Yihong only knew that something had happened to Wei Gangqiang recently, but he didn't know what it was, and when he saw people coming and going at the door of the hotel, he said to Wei Gangqiang: "Xiao Wei, let's go to the box and talk." ”

Then, he ordered the driver to wait for him in the car, and then followed Wei Gangqiang into a small box.

After the waiter finished making tea, Wei Gangqiang ordered a male fish hot pot and a few cold dishes, and asked the waiter to go out first.

Zhou Yihong asked, "Xiao Wei, what difficulties have you encountered?" Can you tell me about it?"

Wei Gangqiang sighed and said: "Old chief, if I can't get through this difficulty, not only will I lose my official position and my reputation will be ruined, but I am afraid that I will also be imprisoned!"

Next, he briefly explained to Zhou Yihong what happened.

It turned out that Wei Gangqiang's wife was a native of the provincial capital, and his brother-in-law was the deputy head of the Yuehu District of Shaxing City in charge of urban construction, named Cao Jun. A week ago, Cao Jun was suddenly shuanggui by the Shaxing Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and is currently under review.

After Wei Gangqiang learned that Cao Jun was shuanggui, although he was shocked, he did not connect with himself - because he had some opinions about this brother-in-law, and felt that he was too greedy, too unprincipled and bottom-line, so he also admonished him many times and asked him to self-discipline and self-police, but Cao Jun didn't listen, but blamed his brother-in-law for being troublesome. Wei Gangqiang saw that he didn't listen to his own persuasion, so he didn't do more than less, and never said these things to him again.

Unexpectedly, just a few days ago, he suddenly found that his wife had insomnia all night long, sometimes he finally fell asleep, and suddenly woke up with a scream and sweating, and then hugged him and cried, and his body trembled.

Under Wei Gangqiang's repeated questioning, his wife told the truth: it turned out that the husbands of two female colleagues in her unit both opened companies to do engineering, and at the behest of those two female colleagues, she introduced their husbands to her younger brother Cao Jun, and did Cao Jun's work, and helped the husbands of those two colleagues contract two relatively large municipal projects. In order to express their gratitude, the two company CEOs each sent 500,000 yuan to her as an "introduction fee" through their wives.

Because he knew that Wei Gangqiang was a very principled and strict self-demanding person, his wife did not dare to tell him after receiving the money, but secretly saved it herself, and it was not until after the incident of Cao Jundong Window that she felt that this basket was bigger, not only she might go to prison, but she might even affect her husband's future and career. For this reason, she was so scared that she lost sleep all night, and she didn't dare to tell her husband, and finally told the truth under his questioning......

Zhou Yihong hurriedly asked, "Xiao Wei, how did you deal with this matter after you learned about it?"

Wei Gangqiang smiled bitterly and said, "What else can I do? First of all, I accompanied my wife to find her two female colleagues who were pitfalls, and returned one million yuan to them. Fortunately, their husbands haven't gone in yet, and it is estimated that Cao Jun is still carrying it hard and has not explained all the problems. However, I reckon that day he can't bear will soon come. When that happens, it will be my turn to be unlucky!"
