Chapter 53: Murder

Under the "persuasion" of Ji Ye and others, the desperate Zhao Chunming finally signed his name on the IOU.

Zhao Chunming and his entourage returned to GD in the afternoon of the same day, because there was an accompanying deputy director who needed to explain, Zhao Chunming reluctantly completed the procedure of "attracting investment" according to Ji Ye's arrangement, and then took the plane back home early the next morning.

This trip to GD is fatal for Zhao Chunming, of course, if he stops at this time, there may still be a glimmer of life, but he didn't do it, too, Zhou Jie, who came back with him, won't let him stop there!

Zhao Chunming returned home, he finally calmed down, he didn't know how to deal with the 30 million arrears, but he knew that he had to fight hard now and sit down as the secretary.

He didn't stop, but went directly to the city to report his work, Ji Ye and the others were worthy of being habitual offenders, and they had already prepared a series of documents for Zhao Chunming.

Judging from these documents alone, Zhao Chunming's trip to GD was very successful, and it has attracted investment from several large companies, and has reached a strategic cooperation, and the businessmen in the south unanimously promised Zhao Chun to come to the development zone after next year. Of course, only Zhao Chunming and Zhou Jie know about the cattiness in this.

As for Zhou Jie, Zhao Chunming thought that he would not come back with him, but Zhou Jie was always in harmony with him, and yes, if Zhou Jie didn't come to supervise or even help Zhao Chunming, how could he raise 30 million within six months!

Zhao Chunming, who came out of the municipal party committee, sat in the car, he didn't speak, the car was very warm, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone in, and ordinary people would be dazzling when they saw it, but he didn't, staring straight out of the car window, walking.

At this time, I only heard Zhou Jie, who was sitting in the co-pilot, remind: "Secretary Zhao, you should call Secretary Bai." ”

Zhao Chunming let out an "oh", he had an indescribable disgust for Zhou Jie in his heart, but he couldn't show it yet.

Zhao Chunming reacted for half a minute before he took out the phone and called.

Bai Liang on the other end of the phone had heard about his great achievements in attracting investment this time, and was happy for him, and praised him on the phone.

The car soon came to the building of the development zone government, Zhou Jie opened the car door for Zhao Chunming, and the two walked to the building one after the other, and there was no communication along the way.

Sitting in his office, Zhao Chunming has no intention of working at all, the five million he has saved hard has been squandered in Macau, and it is not easy to earn another 30 million. Seeing the time pass minute by minute, there is nothing to be done.

He lit a cigarette and smoked silently out the window.

At this time, I only heard Zhou Jie, who was sitting at the other end of the office, say, "Secretary Zhao, is there something on your mind?"

Zhao Chunming glanced at Zhou Jie, he now admires this person from the bottom of his heart, he treats himself like that in Macau, and he can be fine after returning to the north, this kind of concentration is not something that ordinary people can have, of course, in addition to admiring him, he is more afraid now!

I saw Zhao Chunming prop the office chair back, his feet resting on the table, he squinted his eyes and took a heavy puff of cigarette before saying: "You know what I'm worried about, I really don't have a penny on me, what do you want me to do?"

Zhou Jie smiled and said, "It turned out to be a matter of money, Secretary Zhao, you said it earlier, I have a way here!"

Hearing this, Zhao Chunming sat up straight, snuffed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, and said, "What way, you say." ”

I saw Zhou Jie stand up and walk to Zhao Chunming's desk, take out a cigarette from his cigarette case, light it and take a puff, and then said: "There are many ways, but whether Secretary Zhao is willing to listen to it is another matter!"

Zhao Chunming raised his head and looked at Zhou Jie and said, "Say it, you say it first." ”

Regarding the matter in Macau, as long as Zhou Jie is unwilling to mention it, Zhao Chunming is naturally even more reluctant to say it, and now he has only one idea in his heart that he can quickly raise enough money, and then send this group of people, even if he comes down from office with nothing, he will forget it.

Zhou Jie said: "Secretary Zhao, the development zone is so big, just sell a piece of land and the money will come back, you still have a lot left!"

Zhao Chunming said: "Hehe, you also underestimate the government, selling land is the most difficult way out, this is not just approved by the province, it has to be approved by the central government! It doesn't matter where you can sell it!"

Zhou Jie said: "Oh...... But I heard that the land in the south of the city has been approved?"

This brought about another tricky thing for Zhao Chunming, only to hear him sigh and say: "Yes, the land in the south of the city has already been approved and sold, but because the demolition has been dragging on, the demolition households went to the gate of the city government to make trouble two days ago, and this method is even more unfeasible!"

In fact, Zhao Chunming has not yet fished the oil and water of this land, and the original agreement with the developer was that after the demolition is completed, Zhao Chunming can get a sum of money from it, which is enough for several million. However, the developer and the villagers did not negotiate the compensation properly, so they have been dragging it out because it could not be demolished.

Of course, Zhao Chunming couldn't say anything about this matter, and the people in the whole development zone knew that he had gotten a lot of benefits from it, so they ignored it.

Zhou Jie said: "Secretary Zhao, the developer can't dismantle it, we can demolish it!"

Zhao Chunming asked puzzledly: "How do we dismantle it?"

Zhou Jie took a puff of cigarette and said, "You go to talk to the developer, now that they can't dismantle it, it's a good time for us to do it, you see if they are willing to give a little more, let's find a way to dismantle it for them!"

Zhao Chunming thought for a while and said, "He is definitely willing to give out the money, but the question is can we dismantle it?"

Zhou Jie smiled and said: "Secretary Zhao, do you still want to make money? You are the secretary of the development zone, the emperor of this land, and there are other things you can't do?"

Zhao Chunming knew that this was not good enough to provoke a popular uprising, but considering that the risk was too great, he shook his head.

Zhou Jie spread his hands and said, "Then I can't help it, but 30 million doesn't wait for anyone, and I won't wait for anyone for six months!"

Zhao Chunming stood up and said, "Are you threatening me?"

Zhou Jie smiled and said calmly: "I don't dare!"

Zhao Chunming read another meaning in Zhou Jie's tone, he stood by the window, and saw that the moon had already set at this time, and the snow had not melted a few days ago, and the streets in the past few days were particularly bright.

Zhao Chunming thought for about five minutes, only to see him turn around and say, "Okay! Just do as you say, but this deal is done, you take the money and leave, and don't come back!"

Zhou Jie put his legs on the table, laughed, and said, "Secretary Zhao, understand people!" said and gave Zhao Chunming a thumbs up!

The next day, Zhao Chunming made an appointment with the developer of the land in the south of the city, a businessman from the northeast, who originally planned to build a large-scale office building on the site, with a shopping mall that is said to be the largest in the province, and at the beginning of the signing of the contract, it became a key construction project in the province this year. But it has been more than half a year, because the problem of demolition has been delayed.

When the developer saw Zhao Chunming, he was also bitter, but when he saw that he hadn't poured out, Zhao Chunming put forward his own idea, that is, to let the person pay an extra 20 million yuan to the development zone, and Zhao Chunming was responsible for the demolition work.

People who often hang out in shopping malls know that government officials and businessmen are actually no different, one is for power for profit, and the other is for profit, so they can often hit it off.

The developer heard that Zhao Chunming put forward this idea, although it cost him a lot, but the project dragged on like this and consumed more, so he knew that Zhao Chunming was taking advantage of the fire to rob, but he still agreed to it.

Of course, he also knew that all this money was going to flow into Zhao Chunming's pocket.

Zhao Chunming totaled 20 million, plus the millions that the developer promised him after the demolition, and a little more by himself, he would be able to get through this difficulty.

For Zhao Chunming, he knew that he hated Zhou Jie very much, but at such a moment, he still couldn't live without him.

As soon as the developer left, Zhao Chunming called Zhou Jie and said that he had already negotiated with the developer and wanted to discuss with him what to do next.

Zhou Jie said: "Secretary Zhao, you know these things better than me, you still need to ask me!"

Zhao Chunming lit a cigarette for Zhou Jie and said, "I really don't understand, the suggestion is yours, you won't just make a suggestion, there is no solution, right?"

Zhou Jie said: "As long as you want to do this, there are many ways, it depends on which path you choose!"

Zhao Chunming looked at Zhou Jie suspiciously, and asked, "What's the way, you say come and hear it, if you can, I'll do it." ”

I only heard Zhou Jie say: "You are the secretary of the development zone, why don't you ask someone from the public security bureau of the development zone to demolish it for you?"

Zhao Chunming hurriedly waved his hand and said: "This is not good! The Public Security Bureau is not mine! How can I say that I can use it, if I let the higher authorities know, stealing chickens will not make it a loss! This method is not reliable!"

Zhou Jie thought for a while, and then said: "That's not good, in this way, you can hire a group of young people and go to play some prestige properly!"

After he finished talking about this suggestion, seeing that Zhao Chunming didn't speak, he said again: "That's it, if you don't want to, I'll do this for you, if it doesn't work, we have to try it first, right?"

Zhao Chunming wished he would say this, as long as he didn't come forward himself, his interests with Zhou Jie in this matter were the same, if he didn't have 20 million, Zhou Jie wouldn't have a good time!

……

Yan Yuxiang, who was lying on the hospital bed, heard this and couldn't wait to ask: "You are the one who did the incident in the development zone that was broadcast on TV a few days ago?"

Zhao Chunming nodded lightly and said, "Well, this matter has been stabbed into the province, if Bai Liang can't cover it, maybe he will have to stab the center......!"

Yan Yuxiang scolded: "Confused! You know what kind of person Zhou Jie is! You still dare to let him do this! You are a wrong step, a wrong step! Don't have a long brain!"

Zhao Chunming sat at the head of the bed and let Yan Yuxiang count himself.

……

It turned out that after Zhao Chunming and Zhou Jie discussed this matter, in order to avoid suspicion, he went home from work early that day.

What he didn't expect was that when he had just had dinner, he received a call from the Public Security Bureau of the Development Zone, and it was the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau who called, only to hear the anxious shouting on the other end of the phone: "Secretary Zhao, come quickly!

Zhao Chunming was taken aback, he vaguely knew in his heart that this call was related to this matter, but he still asked cautiously: "Where?

The deputy director said: "Here in the south of the city, someone pretended to be a police officer of the Public Security Bureau and the villagers started a fight, one dead and three injured, we have now controlled the scene, but there are accusations here...... No...... Someone made a rumor that you instigated it!"

"Fuck it!" Before the other end of the phone could finish speaking, Zhao Chunming scolded.

The deputy director said: "Now the villagers all know about it, and they say that they are going to the province to sue you!"

Zhao Chunming said anxiously: "Have those people pretending to be the Public Security Bureau been caught?"

The other end of the phone said: "I caught it, but our director is not here, I am a deputy director on duty, and I don't know what to do!"

Zhao Chunming calmed down and said, "That's it, you first arrest all of them back to the Public Security Bureau, I'll go to the Public Security Bureau now, and we'll meet over there!"

I originally thought that this idea could be delayed for a while, but I didn't expect the other end of the phone to say: "Ouch! Okay, my Secretary Zhao! If it were so simple, I wouldn't have to ask you! The key now is that the villagers unanimously believe that this group of people is not fake, or you instructed our public security bureau to do it! So I have to let you come if you say anything!"

Zhao Chunming broke out in a cold sweat and said, "What about the injured villagers?"

The deputy director said: "The ambulance has already come just now, the dead ones have not been pulled, and the remaining injured ones have been pulled to the hospital!"

Every time Zhao Chunming heard a dead person, his mind was blank, and he asked again: "Is Zhou Jie in it?" Since he met Zhou Jie, Zhao Chunming has always taken him on occasions and sizes, so there is basically no one who doesn't know Zhou Jie in the officialdom of this city!

On the other end of the phone, he said, "Who? Zhou Jie? Why is he here? Could it be that it is really your ......?"

Zhao Chunming knew that this sentence was out of words, but knowing that Zhou Jie was not there, his hanging heart was relieved, and he only heard him say: "What are you thinking! Wait, I'll be over soon!"

……

Yan Yuxiang lay on the bed and moved his waist slightly, he now basically knew how Zhao Chunming fell into it step by step, it seems that this lengthy story is about to end.

Of course, not only the story, but also Zhao Chunming's political career is coming to an end!

He asked Zhao Chunming to hand him an apple, ready to listen to the last paragraph of the story.
