Chapter 970: Powder Keg
When Xia Bicheng came to Secretary Lu's house, because the compound of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Local Taxation Bureau were not too far away, he did not dare to take a special car, but walked to the compound of the Provincial Party Committee on foot like Secretary Li usually went to work, so he was the last to arrive at Secretary Lu's house.
At this time, everyone had already sat down at the big dining table, because considering that Xia Bicheng was his own in-laws after all, so Secretary Lu specially instructed Chen Yi to leave a place for him under his head, and after shaking hands with Zhang Linjiang, Lu Nianzi, Xiao Jin and others and saying "long admiration", Xia Bicheng sat down under Secretary Lu with a smile, and felt very proud: It seems that in Secretary Lu's heart, he still has weight as a "family in-law".
Xia Chuchu often ridiculed Ye Ming in front of Chen Yi, Chen Mengqi and other acquaintances, and sometimes "punished" him, but when an outsider like Xiao Jin was present, she was very considerate and "virtuous" to Ye Ming, sitting obediently next to Ye Ming, giving him a little good food from time to time, and taking the initiative to add food to Ye Ming, she did this not only for Xiao Jin, but also for Chen Mengqi and Chen Yi, the purpose was to tell them: She and Ye Ming have a good relationship now, and she is a virtuous and good wife……
Xia Bicheng saw that his daughter was suddenly so sensible and considerate of Ye Ming, and felt that he had a lot of face in front of Secretary Lu, and he also felt very relieved in his heart, and kept saying that Chu Chu is now more sensible and diligent, and it seems that he has really grown up.
Secretary Lu smiled and said: "Comrade Xia Bicheng, Chu Chu is very good, I have always felt that she is straightforward and kind-hearted, she is a very good girl, not to mention, she is so talented, you should be proud of you for having such a good daughter, hehe." ”
Secretary Lu is now very satisfied with Xia Chuchu, the future "daughter-in-law", so he took this opportunity to praise her a few words.
Although Xia Chuchu was cheerful and generous, he was praised by the secretary of the provincial party committee in front of so many people, but he still felt a little embarrassed, his face showed a shy flush, and he glanced at Ye Ming beside him affectionately, and his heart was full of tenderness......
Since it was now at Secretary Lu's house, everyone was embarrassed to drink, so the meal was eaten relatively quickly, and it was finished in more than twenty minutes.
There are not many things to deal with tonight, and he has a little leisure time, so after eating, he took Secretary Li, Zhang Linjiang, Xia Bicheng, Xiao Jin and Ye Ming and other male comrades to a reception room with a root carved tea set in the west, and chatted while sipping kung fu tea.
Originally, Secretary Lu wanted to chat with Xiao Jin alone and listen to his views and suggestions on the work of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, in fact, this kind of chat, the symbolic meaning is far greater than the actual content of the conversation: through such a conversation, Secretary Lu wants to convey a clear signal to Xiao Jin, that is, he has begun to pay attention to him, the secretary of the provincial party committee, and he will be promoted soon.
However, just after eating, Secretary Lu changed his mind and decided to drink tea and chat with everyone, he believed: Even if he didn't talk to Xiao Jin alone, he should know in his heart, and he should know the intention behind calling him to eat today......
During the chat, Secretary Lu asked Xiao Jin very casually: "Comrade Xiao Jin, how is Xiao Ye doing in the Provincial Party School now, and how are the teachers and classmates reflecting him." ”
Xiao Jin hurriedly replied with a smile: "Comrade Ye Ming performed very well in the party school, not only has a strong learning ability, but also has done a lot of meaningful and good things for our youth cadre class, and has won unanimous praise from teachers and classmates. ”
Secretary Lu nodded, and stopped talking about this topic, but began to discuss some issues that he was more concerned about now.
After thinking for a while, Secretary Lu suddenly asked Li Runji: "Comrade Runji, before the National Day holiday, I saw several reports of the Letters and Visits Bureau one after another, saying that some creditors in several counties and cities who had released money to the local investment company were bankrupt because they did not want to return the money, so they gathered together and prepared to go to the capital to petition during the National Day. ”
Secretary Li nodded and said: "Secretary Lu, as far as I know, there are now several counties and cities, and the illegal fund-raising activities of the people are very rampant, and they have reached a crazy level, and in some counties and cities, the private funds are basically concentrated in the investment companies, and no one even deposits money in the bank, which is a very dangerous trend, and it can also be said to be a huge powder keg that affects social stability. ”
Secretary Lu said worriedly: "Runji, the party congress will be held in August next year, and now, due to the problem of the economic climate, the economy in many places in our province has declined, and the efficiency of enterprises is getting worse and worse, since the first half of this year, the country's coal prices, antimony ore prices, and lead-zinc ore prices have continued to fall, especially the coal price, has fallen below the bottom line, many coal mines with poor coal quality, and the production of a ton of coal will lose tens of hundreds of yuan, so many coal mines have to stop production, and the real estate industry, Now also out of the downturn, therefore, many investment companies can not recover the money they have invested, and the people who have saved money have a run, these investment companies will collapse in an instant, the people's hard-earned money can not be recovered, and they will definitely petition to make trouble, what I am most afraid of is that before next year's party congress, because of the problem of illegal fund-raising, there will be a big incident, then we Tianjiang will be very passive. ”
Li Runji knew that Secretary Lu's worries were very reasonable, so he said to him: "Secretary Lu, I was originally going to join hands with the public security organs to deploy a special operation to crack down on illegal fund-raising before the year old, but according to the feedback from the Commission for Discipline Inspection below, there is a lot of resistance to this operation. Even the bosses behind the scenes are officials of the local party committee, and some of them are the main leaders of the local area, and the existence of investment companies can cause false prosperity to the local area, so the leaders of many places know that these investment companies are illegal, and they also know that illegal fundraising is a powder keg that causes social instability, but they still turn a blind eye and do not want to make up their minds and exert efforts to rectify it, resulting in the phenomenon of illegal fundraising becoming more and more serious, so if we want to crack down on illegal fundraising, It didn't happen overnight. ”
