Chapter 78: The Tip of the Iceberg
Things have developed to this point, and the cause and effect are all too clear.
The deputy commander felt that he was very faceless, and the dignified army pickets had actually become a tool for the gangsters in society to retaliate, and it would be a scandal if it was spread out! There was no need for Song Ziyang and Commander Wu to crook their mouths, just the current incomparably powerful public opinion was enough for him to choke!
The major left first after explaining the problem, and the deputy commander didn't know how to deal with this matter, so he asked Song Ziyang what he meant.
"You can do it!"
It's the hardest thing to do!
As far as the deputy commander is concerned, this matter must not be made a big fuss, and after the trouble is made, he is actually the most unlucky one! Originally, there was no deputy commander post in the Pingjiang Military Sub-district, and the reason why such a post was set up was also because the commander was too old and not in good health. The family arranged for him to be the deputy commander, in fact, it was for the purpose of taking over, as fast as half a year, slow as a year, and it would be his turn to be the boss of the military subdivision; in this case, if such a scandal broke out, his road could not be said to be completely cut off, but a delay of a few years was certain, and it was very detrimental to long-term development!
He knew that the direction of this matter depended on the man in front of him who looked indifferent. It doesn't matter if it looks like it's indifferent, it doesn't mean that it really doesn't matter, he can still carry this clearly.
In desperation, the deputy commander simply opened up to discuss with Song Ziyang, once this matter broke out, it would seriously affect the image of the military system in the eyes of the people, whether he could give him a face, and deal with it internally in a low-key manner, he would definitely give a satisfactory result.
Song Ziyang thought about it for a while and agreed, he also knew that this matter would definitely be an uproar when it stabbed the outside world, and he himself would enter the public eye again because of this, he didn't like that feeling. Moreover, from the other party's words, he could hear that the other party seemed to have a hard time, and he didn't want to ask what the specific pain was.
He knew very well that as long as the other party really put effort into dealing with this matter, it would definitely not be worse than staring at it himself, and he didn't have the time and energy to continue to pay attention to such a thing. Instead of working hard, it is better to let the other party toss, and you only need to wait for the last result, if you are not satisfied with the result, you can also crook your mouth when the time comes.
Of course, it's best if everything goes well, and at the same time, you can get a favor. The favor of a deputy commander of a military subdivision is still very useful at certain times.
After coming out of the military division, Song Ziyang went to the hospital again.
The skin injuries on Fei Cheng's body have healed, but the fracture is more troublesome. In fact, he himself wanted to be discharged from the hospital for a long time, but Song Ziyang insisted that he stay for a few more days, and then consider being discharged.
These days, Song Ziyang will take a little time to visit the hospital almost every day, chat with Fei Cheng, come and go, but he is much more familiar than before.
From Fei Cheng's mouth, Song Ziyang learned that Fei Cheng was not an ordinary soldier who had retired, but was also a member of the special forces of a certain military region, and was removed from the army due to some personal reasons.
Song Ziyang was not a gossip person, but when he saw Fei Cheng's stumbling appearance when he talked about the reason for being dismissed, the curiosity in his heart surged up.
I don't plan to say it, but firstly, Song Ziyang is the boss, and secondly, Song Ziyang is really good to him, and then he hides that idea like this, and he really can't care about it in his heart.
Song Ziyang originally planned to listen to it casually, but he didn't expect Fei Cheng to say it lightly, and it broke out a field that Song Ziyang had never imagined.
Fei Cheng didn't plan to say anything before, because this matter is too big!
According to Fei Cheng's own words, he has always been the best in the army even after being selected into the special forces.
The reason is simple, his family is poor and there is no money for him to be promoted.
Before reaching a certain level, when the age is reached, there is basically no possibility of continuing to stay, and you can only choose to quit.
Before he was discharged from the army, he finally got mixed up with the captain and company commander, and if he wanted to go further, there was no hope at all for relying on the income from those Weibo posts at home.
"What does your family do?" Song Ziyang asked.
"My parents are farming, my brother and sister-in-law are also farming, and they contracted an orchard in the first two years, and the sales were not very good, and the income was slightly better than farming. Fei Cheng said.
"Can you spend money to get on?" Song Ziyang asked again.
"Hey, how to say it, it also depends on the person, the quality itself is not bad, spend some money, basically give it, usually call this the icing on the cake, if the quality is a little worse, then it may not be OK, unless you spend a little more, this is called charcoal in the snow." ”
Hearing that two idioms were misinterpreted into such meanings, Song Ziyang was also speechless.
"How much does it cost to you like that?"
"More than 300,000 before and after! That's the market of the past few years, after all, I have been in the position of company commander for two years, and now the market has long changed, I dare not say it, now I want to pile up another company commander, below this number, it is absolutely impossible!" Fei Cheng raised his uninjured arm, opened his palm, and waved at Song Ziyang.
"What is the purpose of spending so much money?"
Fei Cheng hesitated for a moment, but still said truthfully: "For the money, in order to have the opportunity to get the money after reaching a certain position, it's a pity that ...... In fact, it has been my dream to be a soldier since I was a child, and I think that men should carry guns to defend their families and the country, but the reality did not give me this opportunity. ”
After coming out of the ward, Song Ziyang couldn't wait to call Wu Gang and told Wu Gang what he had heard from Fei Cheng.
After listening to Song Ziyang's words, Wu Gang was silent for half a minute, and Song Ziyang did not urge, just waiting for Wu Gang to give him an explanation.
"Commander, first of all, I want to explain that I, including my son Jianguo, have never been involved in anything like this. But, I know, it does exist!"
When Wu Gang was silent, Song Ziyang knew that what Fei Cheng said was absolutely true, and what he was most afraid of was that his old subordinates would also be in the same boat, but when he heard Wu Gang's words, he was a little relieved, but then he was a little worried.
"Is it really as serious as he says?"
"And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Wu Gang's voice was a little heavy.
This is just the tip of the iceberg? What will the whole iceberg look like? Song Ziyang was a little afraid to think about it.
"How did it come to this?"
"The upper beam is not right!"
"Who?"
There was silence again.
In the end, Wu Gang didn't answer Song Ziyang's question, I don't know if he didn't know, or didn't want to say, or felt that Song Ziyang didn't know better than he knew. Song Ziyang didn't ask again, for him, it was enough to know that there was such a person, what was the use of really knowing who it was?
Not to mention that he is now just a small security guard who is also a head teacher, a stall owner of a barbecue stall in the night market, even in the past, as the famous commander of the Eighth Route Army, some things are not something he can control.
Inexplicably, Song Ziyang's heart was in a panic, and there was an evil fire rushing up and down, wanting to vent, but there was no way to vent.
In fact, what Song Ziyang wanted most at the moment was to rush to Jindian, find Jin Dayong and beat him up, but in broad daylight, it was very unwise to do so, and after venting, he would plant himself in it.
Suddenly, he thought that he still had the monitoring record that Jin Dian got back in his hand, and if he could use this thing to give Jin Dian some strength, maybe he would feel more comfortable. But those so-called hard drives are not something he can control, and he has to find someone to help.
"Hey, Shanpao, I have something to look for you, yes, right now, I don't care, you can come out for me no matter what! I will wait for you at the door of your unit in half an hour!"
This kind of thing, Song Ziyang can think of Yin Yushan. Yin Yushan is at work, but he can't wait to find trouble with Jindian now, and he can't wait for a moment!
Song Ziyang went home and picked up the hard drive, hurried to the door of the street where Yin Yushan was, waited for a while, and saw that Yin Yushan hadn't come out yet, so he simply walked in, and no one stopped him.
Although the sub-district office is also a government agency, it is far from being comparable with the serious government compound, at least many of the people who come to do business are ordinary people, and they can't stop people outside for no reason.
Yin Yushan is the deputy director, and when he enters the street office, he knows where his office is when he asks casually.
Before he reached the second floor, Song Ziyang heard the sound of a quarrel coming from upstairs, went upstairs and walked along the place where the sound came from, and found that the sound came from an office with a sign of the deputy director.
Standing at the door and looking in, the two parties were arguing-for-tat about something, Song Ziyang heard that they mentioned words like "property" and "building tyrant", and Yin Yushan was trying to persuade at this time, but with little success.
Song Ziyang entered the house, Yin Yushan saw it, just nodded slightly, and did not say hello. Seeing this, Song Ziyang also knew why he waited for a long time and didn't see Yin Yushan come out, and he really couldn't leave.
Song Ziyang stood on the side for a while, and basically understood the reason for the quarrel between the two sides.
The focus of the quarrel is money, and the reason for the quarrel is a group of people called "Lou Ba", although Song Ziyang doesn't know what kind of existence the so-called "Lou Ba" is, but it sounds very powerful.
Song Ziyang waited for more than half an hour before Yin Yushan pacified the two groups.
After Yin Yushan closed the office door, he sat on the sofa and drank a large glass of water, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You see, this grassroots work is really not easy to do!"
"It's not easy to do any line of work! I just heard them talk about 'Lou Ba' and not 'Lou Ba', who is 'Lou Ba' in the end? It seems that he is very arrogant, can he not do anything about them?" Song Ziyang asked.
"Don't mention it, there are two communities around recently that they have been handed over, and the owners are decorating, and I have been tossing for almost half a month for this 'Lou Ba' thing!" Listening to Song Ziyang talk about "Lou Ba", Yin Yushan said with a loveless look.
