After dinner, Qian Xiangzhong excused himself with an upset stomach, only said hello to Qiao Shang, and hurriedly got in the car and left. [Ran^Text^Library] []

After encountering the scene of stopping the car in Qihe Town in the afternoon, he thought it was just an ordinary person's complaint about stopping the car, which did not attract his attention, and he didn't even get out of the car. It wasn't until he returned to the city after watching the high-yield agricultural park project, especially Tao Zheng's mysterious words before the meal, that he immediately paid attention to it. Thinking of Gao Shan's amount of money involved in the case, and thinking of the intersection between him and Gao Shan, he was faintly worried, but he was more worried about Yao Hong, whether she had gone to this muddy water in the private financing case. From Yao Hong's hurried departure before lunch and the few words, he felt that Yao Hong must have participated, and it was not just ordinary participation. For this reason, Qian Xiangzhong's heart was in his throat, and he had nothing to worry about dinner, but he still barely coped with it, after all, excessive gaffes would bring bad effects and speculation. It was easy to stay up until the banquet was over, and it was no longer easy to wait, so I hurried to Qinghe City.

On the way, they sent a message to Yao Hong, which is also their usual contact information in recent years, but until they entered Qinghe City, they did not receive a reply from Yao Hong, so they had to go home first and then make plans.

There is no Yao Hong at home, and there is no trace of her ever coming back. The empty hall, the empty staircase, and the closed upstairs and downstairs doors, the whole villa is luxuriously silent. Qian Xiangzhong couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and he was deeply disappointed. I can't help but think of many years ago, when whenever he returned to their old little world, even though it was just an old-fashioned two-bedroom house in a dormitory area, he could always feel a touch of warmth and a wild impulse.

It was a dormitory for teachers and staff raised funds by Qinghe No. 1 Middle School, and it was a house that Qian Xiangzhong forcibly occupied from the Municipal Education Commission after returning to Qinghe from Pingyuan County. Because he still has a house in the Electronic Bureau, he lives there with his wife and children, and this has become his secret place in Qinghe City, as well as a warm home with Yao Hong. I often take the opportunity to come here to have a tryst with Yao Hong, feel Yao Hong's strong warmth and diligent care, and Yao Hong can always make ordinary and simple dinners romantic, and the most important thing is that Yao Hong can always appear in this house and appear in front of him when he needs to.

Later, he was transferred to the municipal government as deputy secretary general and deputy mayor, and the municipal government arranged a government dormitory, and this house was not vacated, Yao Hong officially lived here, and it became another home for Qian Xiangzhong, and then lived in the villa in Qinghe community, especially after his wife and children arrived in the United States, Qinghe villa became their common home, and where Yao Hong still lived, although he didn't go back often, there were still a lot of personal belongings where he was.

Qian Xiangzhong also tried to persuade Yao Hong to move the things over there, and the house should be dealt with, or simply buy another house and give Yao Hong a formal home, so that she could not be wronged. But Yao Hong resolutely refused, saying that there was too much warmth and memories in the old house, and they were reluctant to give up, and Qinghe Villa was already their home, so there was no need to build another love nest.

But since Yao Hong resigned and started the company, especially in the past year or so, Qian Xiangzhong has obviously felt the changes in Yao Hong, in addition to being busy and rough, the behavior and language are also much simpler and rude, except for the warmth and demand in the bed, everything else has changed a lot. The warmth of life is getting less and less, and the warm dinner has become a luxury, and even needs money to cook for Yao Hong to cook, and often she doesn't necessarily come back to eat, in addition to being busy, she is still busy. In the past, Yao Hong complained about Qian Xiangzhong's busyness and endless entertainment, but now it is Qian Xiangzhong who is secretly complaining, and even a little resentful, but he has no way to tell. To put it simply, Yao Hong ignored it, and when he was in a good mood, he might say a few words of explanation to coax him, and if he said it seriously, he would be robbed, complained, and even cried by Yao Hong. Qian Xiangzhong gradually felt lost, and felt that boundless loneliness was surrounding him.

Thinking of this, Qian Xiangzhong was secretly a little sad, so he took out his mobile phone again and sent a message to Yao Hong, telling her that he had arrived home, and Yao Hong's message was quickly replied, but it was only the word "waiting", Qian Xiangzhong sighed, got up and poured himself a glass of boiled water, turned on the TV and watched.

Qian Xiangzhong was also combing through the cases of fraudulent loans and private financing in his mind, and Tao Zheng really surprised him when he told him, especially since Gaoshan's company alone had defrauded nearly 1.5 billion yuan, and private financing had reached 6 or 700 million. Qian Xiangzhong quickly judged how the development of the situation would go and how serious it could be, according to Qian Xiangzhong's experience for so many years, if there was no careful operation, the trouble would be very great, and it would be a catastrophe. Intuitive consciousness told him that Gao Shan had encountered a big problem this time, and it seemed that it was difficult to cross this hurdle smoothly. It is estimated that this matter will cause an earthquake, perhaps economically, or politically, involving many people, and may also bring many things to the surface. Once the incident is characterized as an economic case, it is estimated that the problem is not very big. There are specific operators for loan fraud, but at most they are not strictly managed, bear responsibility for dereliction of duty, and assist the relevant departments in the investigation. The state-owned banks still focus on reducing losses and recovering loans, and do not overemphasize the legal nature of the incident, but pay more attention to the more realistic repayment method and time. If it is classified as a criminal case, the use and whereabouts of the funds must be traced clearly, and it is not so easy to get out of the way. The most troublesome thing may be the handling of private financing, the state has severely cracked down on illegal fund-raising and private financing, and has always adopted a high-pressure posture of zero tolerance, which involves the issue of criminal offenses, and it is estimated that the public security will intervene. This is not fatal, and there is still room for maneuver in nature and handling, but the biggest problem of private financing, and what the government urgently needs to deal with, is to calm the emotions of the people. Although private financing and high-interest fund-raising are illegal and criminal, and participation itself is a crime, and it is natural to bear the consequences, but the matter involving the people, especially many people, is not so simple, and it is also impossible to take crackdown and sanctions. Regardless of whether it is right or wrong, recovering the losses of the people as much as possible is the only thing that needs to be done. This is because the interests of the many ordinary people cannot be ignored, and the excessively violent behavior of the common people cannot be ignored, and any signs that may cause social chaos are to which governments at all levels attach special importance, and social stability is the overriding overall situation, and caring for politics has a bearing on the duties and future of officials.

The usual way to deal with this matter is to try to return the raised funds, because the basic characteristics of high-interest financing or fundraising are to collect the new and repay the old, and use the later money to repay the interest and principal of the previous one. As long as the money and energy continue to flow, the game can be played forever, but the problem is that once the capital chain is broken or there is a problem, the entire edifice will collapse in an instant, and nothing will be left. Because the original intention of financing or fundraising is to raise funds for production and operation, but now the field that can support such a high interest rate return cannot be anything other than real estate, so the purpose of many private financing or fundraising is to defraud, and the original purpose is also to deceive.

Gao Shan should not, this is Qian Xiangzhong's basic judgment, because Gao Shan has enterprises, restaurants, and several good real estate projects, and his purpose of financing may really be that the project needs funds, and the project also has a good profit expectation, there should be no problem.

But Qian Xiangzhong is also worried that Gao Shan will return the financing funds as soon as possible. Based on Qian Xiangzhong's understanding of this man, this seemingly friendly little man has both the treacherous, cunning and tactfulness of southerners, the roughness and viciousness of northern men, and the insidiousness that is difficult to ponder, as well as the arrogance that overflows in his bones. It seems that Gao Shan is very sociable, no matter who he is, he doesn't smile or talk, he always shows thoughtfulness and thoughtfulness everywhere, but in fact he is very scheming, and he knows very well what he is doing and what he needs. Sometimes it's like being a master poker player, not only knowing how to play your cards, but also counting the cards in your opponent's hand and how they will play.

Thinking of playing cards, Qian Xiangzhong couldn't help but smile, and also thought of his performance at the poker table. A few years ago, it was a coincidence that you would encounter a high mountain at the Hotel Lisboa in Macau.

It was as the mayor of Qian Xiangzhong led a team to Hong Kong to hold investment activities, after the event Hong Kong friends arranged to visit Macau, Lisboa Hotel and casino of course is also a part of the visit, here by chance encountered the mountains. At that time, he didn't know this man named Gao Shan, but he was introduced by a Hong Kong friend who was a Chinese American, who had companies in the United States and Hong Kong, and had a big business, and invested in Pingyuan a year ago, and was a very responsible entrepreneur. Qian Xiangzhong also had no intention of getting to know such a so-called entrepreneur, and his many years of political experience made him understand that Hong Kong businessmen who invest in Guangdong or Shenzhen can still be regarded as real entrepreneurs who are engaged in industry, because of the geographical advantages and low labor costs of Hong Kong, as well as the preferential policies and tax exemptions of the local government, they have a great attraction and tangible benefits for Hong Kong enterprises to engage in processing trade. Those who have traveled thousands of miles to the interior either want to invest in local underground resources and special products, or they have taken a fancy to the local government's eagerness to attract investment, carry out so-called capital operations, or participate in the plundering of state-owned resources. Kitsch, flattery, and money, it seems that as long as they come to invest, they are all supporting local governments, and they are all patriotic capitalists, these are not short-sighted, but also manifestations of political naivety, and they do not fully understand the essence of capital. Qian Xiangzhong, a middle school teacher, believes that he has more unique vision in these aspects than some leaders.

Therefore, he only politely said some words of thanks to Gao Shan, and played games such as roulette and guessing the size of the point together for a while, which was just a polite exchange and exchange.

After returning to Qinghe, Gao Shan took the initiative to visit and sent some nutrients and supplements, and after that, the exchanges became frequent. He also entrusted Takayama to buy some dollars for his wife and children in the United States, Takayama readily agreed, and often bought and gave away, and he slowly adapted. Especially after going to Macao several times at the invitation of Gao Shan, I felt that Gao Shan could still get along, and it also changed my impression of him in the past. At the same time, I don't care so much about whether the first meeting at the Hotel Lisboa was a chance encounter or the careful arrangement of Gao Shan.

On several trips to Macao, Gao Shan covered all the expenses, and except for a small amount of cash he brought himself, Gao Shan handled the use and redemption of overseas funds single-handedly. After a few times, Qian Xiangzhong fell in love with gambling and also had his own understanding of gambling. He believes that a man's psychology of success is best reflected in the casino, whether it is gambling or playing stud, it fully considers a man's psychological quality and endurance, and the gambler's psychology actually comes to a large extent from self-confidence and judgment of the situation, as well as the opponent's mental and psychological suppression. The victory or defeat of a hand, to a large extent, is not the quality of the card, but their own judgment, sometimes when their cards are not good, the opponent's cards may be worse, so the battle of wits is often a few minutes of judgment and decision at the table. In addition, the psychology of wanting to win and fear of losing is a psychological barrier that everyone has, as long as you integrate into the environment of the casino, when there is no way out, you can release great ability and courage. The word gambling is actually the practice of rich people to get more money, which is what he knows about gambling. Later, it gradually went less, one was inconvenient in time, and the other was not very handy in terms of funds, each time it was Gaoshan advance, although he also took some from the city he was in charge of and paid Gaoshan, and also gave him some engineering compensation, but he gradually faded this heart. But Gao Shan is a real gambler, and as soon as he enters the casino, he exposes his greedy and vicious nature, often without winning a lot of money or losing, he will never leave, and he has to go once or twice a month, and it is difficult to extricate himself. This is also an aspect of Qian Xiangzhong's deep understanding of Gao Shan, a man who is perfect in disguise, and his true nature is undoubtedly revealed when he enters the casino.

Qian Xiangzhong is confident that Gao Shan's affairs will not involve him too much, although he has taken a lot of benefits from Gao Shan, but he has also done a lot of things for Gao Shan, and the two have received more than Gao Shan. Therefore, even if something happens to Takayama, he will not turn over the old accounts too much, because going over the old accounts will only cause him more disadvantages, Takayama is a smart businessman, he will not fail to understand this. He wasn't worried about this, but he was worried about how Yao Hong fell into it and how deep it was.

Thinking of Yao Hong, Qian Xiangzhong couldn't help but look up at the wall clock on the wall, it was already past ten o'clock, and there was still no shadow of Yao Hong.

Qian Xiangzhong had no choice but to pick up his mobile phone and dial Yao Hong's number, although the two of them had an agreement not to call, only send text messages, and delete the text messages after reading them. At first, it was Qian Xiangzhong's request to Yao Hong, and later it became Yao Hong's request to Qian Xiangzhong, but no matter whose request it is, it is always right to be careful.

It took a while for the phone to answer, and it was Yao Hong who was angry and grabbed the white, "It's coming soon, wait a minute." ”

Qian Xiangzhong's heart was on fire, and he felt that Yao Hong had gone too far recently, and even kicked his nose and face, and he didn't know who he was. Therefore, she sulked, and even Yao Hong had a cold face when she entered the door, ignoring her.

Yao Hong entered the door by herself, threw the bag in her hand on the sofa, and said angrily: "Why did your old man come back, why didn't you become a city leader in the plains, how majestic and spirited!" ”

"Why did you think I came back?" Qian Xiangzhong also squinted at Yao Hong angrily and said, "I've been back for a few hours, and it's not Mr. Yao's turn to meet me." As he spoke, he squeezed out a smile from the corner of his mouth with self-deprecation, "It seems that my city leader really has no face!" ”

"Don't be bored with guns and sticks, I'm not in the mood to quarrel today." Yao Hong glared at Qian Xiangzhong dissatisfiedly, and said irritably: "I've been tired to death for a day, and I'm not happy to find it." ”

Seeing Yao Hong's ass on the sofa, with a depressed look on his face, Qian Xiangzhong's heart softened, and the evil fire in his chest gradually dissipated. I couldn't help but stand up, poured a glass of water, walked over and handed it to Yao Hong, and said softly, "Isn't that inconvenient?" With so many leaders and so many media, how can the two of us be together, aren't we looking for trouble? Saying that, he sat down, put his arm around Yao Hong's shoulder, and said easily, "Wasn't we together last night?" And the performance is still great! ”

"you." Yao Hong glanced at Qian Xiangzhong, gently broke the hand on his shoulder, his tone was much softened, and he said lightly: "What are you doing here?" ”

"Aren't I worried about you?" Qian Xiangzhong leaned back on Yao Hong with a hippie smile, and said in a tone as slow as possible: "You know all about the fraud and private financing in the plains, right?" ”

Yao Hong looked at Qian Xiangzhong and nodded silently, but she didn't answer, because she didn't think about whether she wanted to tell Qian Xiangzhong from the beginning, and she really didn't know where to start or how to say it, she was very confused.

"So you also participated, how much money was raised? What do you want so much money for? Qian Xiangzhong blamed in a series of ways, his voice full of incomprehension and complaints.

"What do I want so much money for? What do you say I'm doing? Yao Hong jumped up from the sofa at once, and her emotions jumped up with her, "What do I want money for, don't you understand?" Don't you know how you came to be the deputy director of the National People's Congress? In the past, people gave us money, but now you see, since you decided to retire from the mayor's position, how much money has been spent for this deputy director of the people's congress and to go to the provincial people's congress? And how much money did you Qian Xiang Zhong take out of his pocket? What do you think I want money for? ”

Yao Hong's words made Qian Xiangzhong instantly discouraged, he knew that Yao Hong had spent a lot of money for his affairs for more than a year, and it was precisely because of the money spent that he felt more and more aggrieved and became more and more imposing. But I never thought about it, from the decision to open a company to the present, in just a few years, what does it depend on to become an entrepreneur and a strong woman with a net worth of hundreds of millions, not by his relationship with money and loyalty, nor by the secret transfer of interests. She is a local bun from the countryside, she wants to have a degree or no education, she wants funds but no funds, why did she open a company to make a lot of money, and why did she get to where she is now. But now is not the time to dwell on this, so Qian Xiangzhong lowered his voice and said slowly: "I didn't mean that, I also know that you have done a lot for me, and I am also worried about you so I am in a hurry, otherwise what would I do in a hurry?" As he spoke, he took Yao Hong's hand and sat back on the sofa, "I just want to ask how much money you have raised, and how are you going to deal with it?" ”

"You think I lied to someone?" Yao Hong turned her face and looked at Qian Xiangzhong strangely, and said sneeringly: "It's not that I deceived people, it's people who cheated your wife." ”

"Liared to you? How to deceive? Qian Xiangzhong became more and more anxious, and asked eagerly, "You explain it to me!" What the hell is going on, you're going to kill me, my aunt. ”

"Didn't CCB approve a loan of 70 million yuan for me last month, and it was done a few days ago, but the land of the textile factory was never able to be said, and the money could not be put to sleep on the account, so it was temporarily released to Gaoshan's investment company." Qian Xiangzhong's questioning made Yao Hong dare not hide it anymore, and she didn't want to hide it anymore, and her heart was about to be broken by the events of this day, so she simply poured beans into the bamboo tube and said: "The advance payment of several other purchasing customers, the fundraising of the company's employees, and the money of several friends have made up another 30 million, and a total of 100 million yuan has been invested." ”

"100 million? And bank loans? Qian Xiangzhong's eyes darkened, he almost didn't faint, and his voice trembled a little, "You are too bold." ”

"Who would have thought that something was going to happen." Yao Hong was also a little aggrieved, "Thinking about it for just a month, I will withdraw it in a month, and that is nearly 10 million yuan of interest!" Who would have thought that would be like this? ”

"It's true that greed, greed drives people crazy." Qian Xiangzhong trembled his hands, pointed at Yao Hong and said helplessly: "Didn't you say that you were not dead?" Yes, you have spent a lot for me, but in Qinghe, that is, in Hehai, in three or four years like you, from nothing, to now there are hotels, shopping centers, municipal construction companies, and how many of them are worth hundreds of millions? How many government projects can be received without any risk? I don't dare to say much, it's no problem to earn tens of millions a year, right? What more could you want? What could you want? ”

"Aren't I thinking about our future, too?" Yao Hong also had to defend herself under Qian Xiangzhong's aggressive words and gaze, and then forced out a smile, and the little bird snuggled up to Qian Xiangzhong and said: "In a few years, when you retire, whether you go to the United States or Canada, don't you need money, and I am reluctant to let you go back to your wife, we can go to England or Italy, buy a house, how good it is to be free, we can be together forever." ”

"It's beautiful to think", Qian Xiangzhong pushed Yao Hong away and stood up, "Let's think about what to do now!" ”

"What to do? Cold. Qian Xiangzhong's indifference and bluntness aroused the anger in Yao Hong's heart again, she also stood up and looked directly at Qian Xiangzhong defiantly, "I have no way now, and I can't afford to pay back the bank to collect debts, so I convened the group's finance in the afternoon and estimated all the funds that can be concentrated, not only can I not solve any problems, but I can't even cope with the fundraising of employees." ”

"And what do you do?" Qian Xiangzhong asked worriedly, his mind was also spinning rapidly, thinking of a solution, but there was no room for maneuver, so the words asked were powerless and helpless, like asking Yao Hong, more like asking himself.

"Let's see, you can't be relied on anyway." Yao Hong said a little cynically: "Carry it, if you can't do it, run away, if others can run, I can also run." ”

"Runaway? To put it lightly, where can you run? Qian Xiangzhong said with a smile: "Let's think about how to deal with the aftermath!" ”

"I really can't run, so I can only accept my fate, where to go!" Yao Hong sighed softly, and pretended to be relaxed and said: "I've really been arrested, I'll say whatever people need, say what I know, and strive for leniency!" ”

"What do you mean?" Yao Hong's words made Qian Xiangzhong nervous, and he immediately thought of if. Yao Hong knows too much, he is like standing naked in front of her, if she is caught, the consequences are really unimaginable, everything about herself will be exposed, and there is no room for maneuver.

"I'm not bored, you can think for yourself, anyway, I'm not happy, and you can't be better." Yao Hong said lightly, picked up the bag on the sofa and walked upstairs, walked a few steps and turned around and said, "By the way, Gao Shan is gone, and it may have been controlled." If you don't believe me, you can ask through your secret line. ”

Qian Xiangzhong was stunned for a moment, Yao Hong turned into a fire in front of him, a fire that was about to consume him, and instantly surrounded him.

Qian Xiangzhong suddenly thought of the word "destruction" in his mind, but he didn't dare to think about it anymore.

That night, there was no lingering, only fear
