The bedroom door creaked suddenly, and Wan Dewu walked out of the room in a dejected state, his eyes were dull, and his steps were vague, as if he was about to fall down at any time.

Hou Jianjun looked at the clock on the wall, it was already past four o'clock in the morning, but he was full of nervousness just now, and he didn't notice that time passed so quickly.

Wan Dewu shook his head violently, raised his head, and looked at Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng slowly put down the newspaper in his hand and looked at him.

Wan Dewu's legs suddenly weakened and he knelt on the ground.

Hou Jianjun was stunned and looked at him blankly.

Wan Dewu's head was in chaos, he didn't know what he was doing, he just felt that his legs were weak and he couldn't stand, maybe he subconsciously wanted to sit down, or perhaps, he really wanted to kneel, in short, when he sat down, he became a kneeling posture on the ground.

As soon as he entered the bedroom, Wan Dewu first called home, and he didn't say anything about this, he estimated that he would be able to go out in a day or two, so why worry Guan Jie? But when asked about the nanny Xiaocui at home, Guan Jie said that she left a note and quit her job and went to the south, Wan Dewu didn't care too much, no wonder Lu Zheng and his dog were so sure, it turned out that they had such a hand, and these things will be said slowly in the future.

Wan Dewu immediately called a paging number in Beijing, waited for more than half an hour, the phone bell finally rang, Wan Dewu was not in a hurry, this time the reply was quite fast, that master, very busy, and very temperamental, this point to call him, it would be good to be able to reply.

But I didn't want to pick up the phone, but it wasn't the voice of the master, and the person who replied was the attendant next to the master, called Xiaoliu, who was originally a stubborn master in Beijing.

Xiaoliu said coldly, the fourth brother knows all about you, and the fourth brother tells you to rest assured, and the fourth brother in your family will ask someone to take care of it. Then Xiao Liu hinted to Wan Dewu, if you leak the matter of the fourth brother even a little, you can figure out what the consequences will be, and think about your wife, parents, ex-wife and children.

Xiaoliu told Wan Dewu again, don't call this number in the future, the fourth brother thinks that you are doing illegal things, and you are too angry, and you will have nothing to do with it in the future.

Then, Xiaoliu hung up the phone.

Wan Dewu was immediately dumbfounded, like falling into an ice cave, obviously, Xiaoliu was worried that someone was listening, and he was very careful in his wording, but in and out of the words, the information that should be revealed was revealed, that is, the fourth brother would not meddle in this matter, and from then on, the relationship with him was also severed.

Wan Dewu's dependence in his heart suddenly collapsed, he thought that the fourth brother would come forward, and this little trouble would be solved, but who knows, Zuihou is such a result.

After sitting in the bedroom for several hours, Wan Dewu didn't know how he thought about it and how he opened the door to get out.

At this time, he knelt on the ground, Wan Dewu couldn't say a word, his lips trembled, like a frosted eggplant, and the arrogance and arrogance of a few hours ago had long since disappeared.

Lu Zheng patted Wan Dewu on the shoulder: "You just explain honestly and strive for leniency." Then he turned and walked out.

came to see Wan Dewu, I just wanted to see how the other side would react, it seems that Wan Dewu was given up over there, but this beam was finished, as for how big this beam is, it depends on what the other side thinks.

Hou Jianjun sent Lu Zheng out of the house, and when he came back, looking at Wan Dewu, who was still kneeling beside the coffee table like mud, a cruel smile gradually appeared on Hou Jianjun's face.

Looking at Wan Dewu's appearance, Hou Jianjun knew that he was finished, it seems that what kind of bullshit Beijing prince is bragging nonsense.

Picking up Wan Dewu's neck collar and dragging Wan Dewu to the bedroom like a dead dog, Hou Jianjun said with a cruel smile: "Lao Wan, let's have a good chat!"

The bedroom door was closed, and inside, a pig-killing howl sounded......

January 29th is the Spring Festival, it seems that there are only a few days left, the weather in Guangning is gradually warming, today the spring is bright, and Zhou Daqing also helped Lu Zheng open the window in the morning to breathe.

In the office, Lu Zheng looked at Wan Dewu's confession.

On the sofa, sat Wang Tongdi, the county magistrate, Ma Yuewu, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, and Feng Decai, president of the county court.

Looking at the confession, although Wan Dewu and Wang Tongdi have a close relationship, they have no interests, and even some small gifts given by Wan Dewu, Wang Tongdi has repaid the cash at a discount, and Wang Tongdi will not accept any valuable gifts.

Now Wan Dewu doesn't have to lie in his confession.

Lu Zheng glanced at Wang Tongdi, the county magistrate who worked with him was not simple.

Many cadres in the county may think that if Wan Dewu is broken, County Magistrate Wang will definitely fall, because the close relationship between the two is well known.

Lu Zheng looked at Feng Decai again and said, "The prosecution of Wan Dewu's case has filed a lawsuit, what do you think?" Of course, we are only communicating privately, and our opinions do not affect your court decision. "Wan Dewu's case was investigated very quickly, it was sent to the procuratorate three days ago, and the procuratorate filed a lawsuit today after review.

Feng Decai is also an old acquaintance of Lu Zheng, when Lu Zheng was in Guangning, he was the president of the court, this worker-born judge has thick eyebrows and big eyes, gray casual clothes, and a very simple appearance.

Feng Decai cleared his throat and said: "During the period when Wan Dewu was contracting the fertilizer factory, he used all kinds of illegal means to take state assets for himself, and the amount exceeded 100,000 yuan, which belongs to the type of 'particularly huge' and should be severely punished, but he voluntarily pleaded guilty, and I think he can be given a lighter punishment as appropriate." In addition, he actively returned the stolen goods, did show remorse, and was weak and infirm, and is still on medical parole, so I believe that he can be sentenced to 10 years in prison as the benchmark. ”

Although it seemed that Secretary Lu was preparing to severely punish Wan Dewu, Feng Decai still considered and expressed his opinion. Lu Zheng nodded slightly, no squeak. Wang Tongdi interjected: "Lao Feng, in Wan Dewu's case, do you think it is possible to use a fine as an additional punishment?"

Not long ago, the National People's Congress (NPC) just revised the Criminal Law, and fines appeared in the Criminal Law as a kind of supplementary punishment.

Only Lu Zheng can feel that he is changing little by little

From now on, we should improve the procedures for the judgment and execution of fines and sentences, and in more than 10 years, we will probably be able to form a very mature new criminal punishment system, which will be unprecedented in the future deterrence of economic criminals.

However, when Wang Tongdi mentioned the fine and punishment at this time, he didn't have the same idea as Lu Zheng, he should have wanted to fight for Wan Dewu to get a chance for leniency.

Ma Yuewu glanced at Wang Tongdi with a smile and said, "I heard that County Magistrate Wang wanted to see him yesterday?"

Wang Tongdi said: "Yes, but I haven't seen it, I want to meet an old friend, that's right, right?" But I heard that he couldn't see anyone but the lawyer during this period, and I admit that I should have studied law more in this regard. ”

Lu Zheng made a gesture: "Okay, Tongdi, you continue." ”

Wang Tongdi nodded and said: "I see it this way, if he is sentenced to ten years and eight years, the punishment of him is far less deterrent than the use of fines, and the application of fines and punishments is also more appropriate from his body and from the perspective of humanitarianism." Take a case of our Quang Ninh three years ago, this case Secretary Lu was there at the time, and everyone should know that the confiscation of more than twice the fine of the criminal's illegal gains caused a sensation at that time, and it was a deterrent to the entire Quang Ninh Xiaoxiao who intended to use their positions to embezzle public funds, and it was a sword hanging over their heads. ”

"Three years have passed, and our country has also introduced a criminal law on fines, and we can also take the lead in applying it in the country, so as to explore and set a yardstick for the punishment of economic crimes in economically developed areas."

Lu Zheng listened and drank tea slowly.

Wang Tongdi looked at Feng Decai and said, "Old Feng, what do you see?" Of course, I'm not engaged in law, I'm just providing you with an idea, which can be regarded as a brick throw. ”

Feng Decai groaned and said: "It's okay to use a fine as an additional punishment, but Wan Dewu's embezzlement of state property is a particularly huge amount, and if you want to use the fine to offset the sentence, the amount must be five times his illegal income as the base, or more than five times." ”

Ma Yuewu interjected: "I also think that fines should not be used as a substitute for punishment, but should be an additional punishment for criminals, and such a punishment will have a deterrent effect." Wang Tongdi nodded and stopped talking. Lu Zheng said to Feng Decai: "Okay, you don't have to care about our opinions, how to judge, or based on facts, evidence, and law, and act according to law." He looked at Zhou Daqing, who was standing at the door, and said, "Everyone is here, right?" I'll take a look. ”

Lu Zheng was talking about some entrepreneurs and business representatives in Guangning, represented by Liu Hanshan, vice chairman of the CPPCC of Guangning County and chairman of the Federation of Industry and Commerce, and gathered more than 100 people to jointly write to the municipal party committee and the provincial party committee, expressing dissatisfaction with the increased tax burden after Wushan was used as a pilot to promote the tax reform.

At this moment, Liu Hanshan and several representatives of the Guangning business community were waiting for Lu Zheng in the small conference room on the fifth floor.

The moment Lu Zheng entered the conference room, the conference room that was talking and chatting immediately quieted down.

Lu Zheng walked to the main seat, looked at the wall behind him with the portrait of Ma Enlesmao, and stood for a while.

Liu Hanshan and the others looked at each other, and they were even more uneasy.

As early as the day he heard that Lu Zheng came to Guangning to serve as the secretary of the county party committee, Liu Hanshan was timid, he had a deeper intersection with Lu Zheng than Wan Dewu, and was once detained by Ma Weiguo in Qinglong and forced to rectify Lu Zheng's black materials, and later, it was Lu Zheng who fished him out.

I already cared about Lu Zheng's old feelings, and this new secretary was cruel when he was in Guangning in the past, and now he has just returned to Guangning, and he has put Wan Dewu in prison, how can they not be terrified?

Finally, Lu Zheng sat down in his seat and looked around at them.

Liu Hanshan and the others lowered their heads, not daring to look at Lu Zheng.
