After some conversation, the two deepened their understanding of each other, and the chat was very pleasant, and after work, Shen Weidong invited them to have a glass of wine together, and Li Rui readily agreed.

In the tavern arranged by Jiang Liansheng last time, the fifteen-year-old Moutai plus farmhouse local dishes have a unique flavor. After three glasses of wine, Shen Weidong said with a smile: "Bureau Li, did you have any misunderstanding about me some time ago?" ”

"Misunderstanding? Maybe a little, but it's all in the past. Li Rui picked up the wine glass and touched it with Shen Weidong, and said with a smile.

"Isn't it Xiaohong talking about me?" Shen Weidong smiled, but there seemed to be something else in his smile.

"Little Red? You didn't mention it, I almost forgot about this person, she didn't say anything. By the way, I let her go directly last time, so don't embarrass others. Li Rui said.

"Huh? You really didn't ...... that time," Shen Weidong said with a surprised face when he heard it.

"Nope! In the future, you will arrange less such things. ”

"No, I haven't seen her since that day, I thought you gave her ......," Shen Weidong quickly explained.

"It's up, isn't it? No, I just let her go that day. Li Rui smiled, thought about it and added: "By the way, she said that her mother was sick and wanted to make money to see her mother." I guess I'm going home, right? ”

"I see, no wonder?" Shen Weidong nodded, and then said with a look of regret: "Bureau Li, it's a pity, that Xiaohong is really good, I also asked the proprietress of the hotel, Xiaohong is there to accompany the wine, never come out, it is said that it is still the original bud, you didn't ......"

"Gotta get it, don't talk about all this uselessness." It would be false to say that he didn't regret it, especially now sitting with Shen Weidong, it seems that he didn't have any bad intentions at all that day, just to please himself, he knew this, and he would have been on it that day.

Li Rui waved the chopsticks in his hand and said impatiently: "You also have a lot of money, and you pay 10,000 yuan to get a woman, is this interesting?" If you really have a lot of money, you might as well build a bridge, build a road, and help a few poor students to do more good deeds. ”

"Hahaha, Bureau Li laughed, what is my money, I'm afraid it's better than a fraction of Gou Fugui." Shen Weidong said with a smile.

Li Rui's heart moved, and he asked, "How much money does that dog say?" You should know that you are peers, right? ”

Shen Weidong groaned and stretched out a slap to gesture, "This number!" ”

Li Rui couldn't help but gasp: "Fifty million? "I rely on, 50 million in 92, Zhang Zhuoyang has such a big background, and he has only earned more than 100 million after working hard for several years; Zhao Wenlong is also the first batch of people to get rich in the reform and opening up, he can also be regarded as a lively mind, and he is also only worth thirty or forty million, this Gou Fugui actually has so much money, and coal is really black gold!

Shen Weidong nodded, sighed again, with obvious envy and jealousy on his face, and said, "Almost." ”

"No wonder this dog is known as the richest man in Nanqiao, and he is really rich." Li Rui sighed.

"Wealthy? Hmph, it's not a collusion between officials and businessmen. Shen Weidong snorted coldly.

Li Rui looked at him and said with a smile: "You can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour, right?" ”

Shen Weidong's face turned slightly red, and he said unconvinced: "Bureau Li, I won't tell you, Gou Fugui's big network is false, and if you don't envy it, it's fake, and if you have a relationship in these years, it's easy for you to do things." But as long as you do things on the road, others will not say anything if they are envious. But look at the little thing Gou Fugui did, is this still a thing? Let's not talk about the Changshan Coal Mine, let's just say that this tax payment, just hearing that he is the richest man in Nanqiao, you must have never heard that he is the first in Nanqiao County to pay taxes, right? The taxes he paid in several coal mines combined were not as much as half of those in my Pingtian Coal Mine, do you think about how much less he has paid over the years? I'm afraid it adds up to one-third of his entire net worth. Isn't this digging into the corners of the country? ”

"Hey, you said he had several mines? In addition to the Chengdong Coal Mine and the Changshan Coal Mine, what else? Li Rui asked in surprise, according to the registration of the Coal Regulatory Bureau, Gou Fugui originally only had the Chengdong Coal Mine and the Changshan Coal Mine that had just been auctioned.

Shen Weidong said with a mysterious face: "He has at least three or four small coal mines, and he used someone else's name when he registered. Most of them were obtained by him through improper means, so he did not dare to use his own name. ”

"And this? Could it be that this Gou Fugui is still involved in the black? ”

Shen Weidong shook his head and said: "It's not enough to be involved in the black, he mainly walks the white road, and sometimes the white way's methods are even more ruthless than **, forcing you to transfer the mine to him." ”

Li Rui nodded and said with a smile: "No wonder you are all enthusiastic about dealing with leaders. ”

Shen Weidong said calmly: "In fact, although we people have made some money over the years, what we are most afraid of is the political axe, if someone is worried about your property, you will probably soon become poor, maybe there will be a prison sentence." Why is Gou Fugui desperately engaged in relationships, on the one hand, he can get benefits, and on the other hand, he is afraid that someone will worry about him. Alas! Educating everyone about real examples, everyone understands what is going on, and the dealings between businessmen and the government are nothing more than one is to protect money, and the other is to make profits, each taking what he needs, and trading fairly, which is the open rule of the game. ”

Li Rui had to admit that Shen Weidong's words were very reasonable, and then deliberately led the topic to the nude photos incident not long ago, and said with a smile: "What do you think about Gou Fugui being photographed last time?" ”

"Offended someone! However, this matter can't hurt Gou Fugui's vitality, at most his reputation is stinky, but his reputation has long been stinky, and everyone knows it. It's unlucky, Du Jinsong! It may also be that they went to the two of them together, the two of them wore a pair of pants and did a lot of bad things together, maybe it was the coal boss who was pit by the two of them. ”

Shen Weidong drank two more glasses today, and talked a lot more than usual, and after a drink with Li Rui, he took the initiative to say: "By the way, Bureau Li, last time you asked me about the Changshan Coal Mine, it wasn't that I didn't mean not to answer, it mainly involved some secrets that can't be said, please forgive me." ”

Li Rui had long realized that when he went to Pingtian Coal Mine to inspect that day, he asked about the situation of Changshan Coal Mine, Shen Weidong deliberately diverted the topic from it, and looked at him with a smile and said, "It's all here, what else do you have to say." ”

Shen Weidong smiled and said, "I treat you as a friend today, and I have said everything, don't you use the secrets of this industry to embarrass me in the future?" ”

Li Rui smiled: "What do you say?" I've always considered you a friend. ”

Shen Weidong said: "Actually, it's nothing, as long as you stay in the Coal Management Bureau for a long time, you will naturally know." If at least half of the more than 80 coal mines in Nanqiao County, large and small, are now closed according to the mining reserves approved by the superiors, why is everyone still alive and well? ”

Li Rui understood a little and asked: "It turns out that you are all mining out of bounds?" ”

Shen Weidong smiled but didn't answer, the answer was obviously that.

Li Rui then asked: "Is the Changshan Coal Mine also exploring new ore veins?" ”

Shen Weidong took a bite of the dish, put it in his mouth and said while chewing: "Actually, there is no need to explore, there is a small coal mine behind the mountain that is rich and noble, and he knows very well in his heart that it will take time to open a new operation surface." ”

"Oh!" Li Rui suddenly understood: the deputy mine manager stopped him from going to the mine, not because of some bullshit safety issues, but because he was afraid that he would find out what was wrong with it.

Li Rui then asked: "There are inspections in the bureau every year, and the superiors often conduct spot checks, can't they be found?" ”

"Hahaha......" Shen Weidong laughed and said, "Every time you come down, you will notify a few days in advance, the mine owners have already made arrangements, and the people who are familiar with the inside story are old friends, and everyone knows each other, nothing more than this......" He twisted his index finger and thumb.

Li Rui knew at a glance that it was meant to be bought with money. Paralyzing, this is called the rules of conduct! He really can't move, as long as he moves, the people below will have to rebel.

Shen Weidong continued: "This is an open secret in the coal industry, and it is like this everywhere, and everyone is just ganging up to seek money. ”

One afternoon with a dinner, communicating with Shen Weidong, Zhente Niang's long knowledge, even what Lao Xie didn't say, Shen Weidong told him, and it could be seen that he really wanted to call himself a friend. With a high level of interest, the two killed the two bottles of fifteen-year-old Moutai that Shen Weidong took out of the car. Shen Weidong was obviously a little excessive, Li Rui hurriedly called his driver and the two of them were sent into the car together. The tavern was on a small street at the corner of Tuanjie Road, not far from the old house, Li Rui declined Shen Weidong's suggestion, and walked back slowly along Xiangyang Road alone.

In addition to the street lights on Renmin Road and Bayi Road, there is also this Tuanjie Road, because the family home of the county party committee is located on this road. Under the dim street lamp, Li Rui walked slowly alone, a bottle of white wine went down, Rao is the current temperature is only seven or eight degrees, Li Rui still feels a burst of heat on his body. This week, Gao Jie accompanied the delegation of the Mining Bureau to the developed areas of the southeast coast to investigate, and it is said that he will go to Hong Kong and Macao for a round, and he will go for two weeks, thinking that he will have to fight for more than ten days, Li Rui secretly scolded in his heart: paralyzed, the Mining Bureau said that to put it bluntly, it is to dig coal, and there is no coal in the southeast coast, so what is there to investigate, and it is just to travel to Hong Kong and Macao at public expense.

When he was about to arrive at the mouth of the alley of the Li family's compound, a bicycle passed by him, a young girl, with a burst of girl's unique body fragrance wafting in the wind, Li Rui couldn't help but take a deep breath, this taste! What an intoxication!

"Huh!" The girl riding the bicycle suddenly stopped, turned around and carefully identified it by the light of the street lamp, and couldn't help exclaiming: "Big brother, it turns out that it's really you!" ”

Li Rui couldn't help but be stunned, who! It looks quite familiar, and the girl is quite beautiful. Thinking about it, except for the disaster he had caused to such a young girl when he was in Yanjing, he didn't seem to have done anything bad when he came back, let alone Nanqiao.
