Xu Yang pondered and asked, "Chu Yuan said that you went to Dujiang for Qingping's business, so ...... Are you bothered about tungsten ore? ”

Meng Jinxing nodded, took a big puff of cigarette and said, "The original report is actually no problem, it was the Iron Lady who asked them to lie and claim that they were mistaken."

Xu Yang's eyes widened in astonishment, and he looked at Meng Jinxing in disbelief.

"I want to find a perfect solution, but ......" Meng Jinxing sighed, pinched his sour nose, raised his head and tried his best to support his eyes, "It's late!" She should have taken the initiative to find Secretary Xia and Secretary He. ”

Xu Yang also began to light a cigarette.

Zhong Minxiu and Meng Jin walked closely, which he had known for a long time.

However, when Weng Canhui wanted to remove Meng Jinxing from his post, Zhong Minxiu supported him desperately, which made Xu Yang feel a little incredible, and now Zhong Minxiu's behavior similar to a moth to a fire is not the Iron Lady in his impression at all, and he feels more like a little woman who is desperate for love.

Xu Yang didn't dare to ask this, he knew that the relationship was too sensitive, even if it was true, he could only treat it as not knowing, let alone his personal speculation.

"If you want to open more, people are in the official career, and there are many things that you can't help yourself." Xu Yang persuaded a little weakly, "When the matter comes to this, only if she takes the initiative to admit it, can Secretary Xia be psychologically prepared." ”

Meng Jinxing didn't speak, he lowered his head and smoked, his hands shaking all the time.

Zhong Minxiu's dedication is not the generosity of the war years, there are no bloody and hideous scenes, but in his heart it is a bloody sacrifice, and he will continue to march on his career at the cost of her sacrifice in the future.

Xu Yang seemed to see his heart, and whispered: "Who said that officialdom is not a battlefield? This is a battlefield without gunpowder, and there are minefields and sacrifices at every step. This kind of sacrifice is not only a balance of forces and interests of all parties, but also includes a lot of internal consumption and sacrifice. ”

He smiled bitterly helplessly, "Isn't it often that people complain, who climbed up on other people's shoulders?" However, if someone uses these complaining guys as a stepping stone, they will not hesitate to step on it, because the road is too narrow, either he will fall or you will fall, and the successful person must be a little ruthless! ”

Meng Jinxing tilted his head to look at him, "Why haven't you done this?" ”

Xu Yang was stunned for a moment, and then snorted lightly: "Hehe, not everyone can have the right time, place and people, otherwise the pyramid will not become a pyramid." ”

Meng Jinxing took a few puffs, finished the cigarette in his hand, crushed it heavily in the ashtray, stood up and said, "I'll go to her house to have a look." ”

Xu Yang immediately grabbed him and stopped: "Can't go!" If you want her to sacrifice in vain, then you go, if not, wash your face, brush your teeth, eat breakfast, what to do! ”

Hu Sihai happened to buy breakfast and entered the door, and when he heard Xu Yang say breakfast, he immediately said: "Red oil is copied, it's just right to eat it while it's hot." ”

Meng Jinxing was like a boulder pressed against his chest, and he stayed for a few seconds before picking up the basin, towel and other things to wash his face.

Hu Sihai put everything in order, and when he heard the sound of "whooshing" water in the corridor, he asked Xu Yang in a low voice: "Persuaded?" ”

Xu Yang nodded, "Let's eat first, and you act as if nothing happened." ”

Hu Sihai hummed for a while, sat down and ate with Xu Yang first.

Meng Jinxing brushed his teeth heavily by the pool, again and again, as if the two rows of neat teeth were full of dirt, and he did not get rid of unhappiness.

Yan Min, who lived in the same building, came to wash his face, and when he saw him, he asked in surprise: "Director, why are you full of blood?" ”

Meng Jinxing turned his face to look at Yan Min and asked, "Is it?" ”

Yan Min nodded heavily and said, "It's on fire, right?" I'll get you some honeysuckle. ”

Meng Jinxing reluctantly smiled at Yan Min, and thanked him by spitting out the toothpaste foam full of blood in his mouth.

……

Work didn't leave Meng Jinxing too much time to feel sad and uncomfortable, and it also gave him an excuse not to think about Zhong Minxiu.

Early that morning, the Dawn newspaper published a headline titled "11-year-old elementary school student illegally detained." There is a strong call from all walks of life - not to use hostage means to deal with economic disputes".

At the same time, CCTV's morning news programs also broadcast the news, and public opinion was in an uproar.

Meng Jinxing received a call from Qin Wanhua from the capital at noon, telling him that the prime minister was extremely distressed after seeing the news and had instructed the relevant parties to "rescue the little hostage as soon as possible at any cost." ”

She also said that in the morning, the All-China Women's Federation, the Youth League, and scholars from all walks of life all issued appeals for the hostage incident, and the readers' response was quite strong, and just before she called Meng Jinxing, Xiangbei Province had already called Shuguang Daily, and the vice governor of the province, Ge Liyun, personally led a team to Leihe Town to rescue the little hostages.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Cai Kuang, who had not slept together for three days and four nights, called from Dujiang, and Xu Jianguo caught it!

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Meng Jinxing received a call from the city government and rushed to Shencheng to attend a special meeting personally chaired by Weng Canhui to go to Leihe to coordinate the rescue of the hostages.

At the meeting, Weng Canhui conveyed the instructions of the provincial party committee and the provincial government, demanding that the Shencheng Public Security Bureau immediately accept Xu Jianguo for trial, and at the same time demanding that the Shencheng Municipal Party Committee and the city party committee take concrete action to safeguard the interests of the peasants in Leihe.

He relayed word for word a speech made by Huang Lin, secretary of the provincial party committee, at an afternoon teleconference: "Illegally detaining primary school students as hostages is a serious crime, and the legitimate rights and interests of children and peasants should be protected." ”

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Meng Jinxing, who was waiting for the flight at Dujiang Airport with Dong Yiming, secretary of the Shencheng Political and Legal Committee, and others, received a call that Wu Guangyu and others had handed over Ma Wenlong to the side of Xiangbei Province, and the little hostage was rescued just over 20 hours after the report was issued!

Meng Jinxing immediately called Qin Wanhua, told her the good news, and expressed his heartfelt thanks to her.

The group flew directly to Shakou, and arrived at Lanli County at 10 o'clock the next night.

The comrades of the Lanli County Party Committee Office and the Political and Legal Committee warmly received Dong Yiming, Meng Jinxing, the child's mother and others, and Meng Jinxing finally met Kang Yue and Mo Bai, who had only heard of them before.

Looking at Liu Fen, the nervous, anxious, and expectant mother, Kang Yue proposed to Lanli's people to let Liu Fen and Ma Wenlong's mother and son meet immediately.

Shen Ming, director of the Lanli County Party Committee Office, smiled at them and said, "It's too late today, see you tomorrow." ”

Meng Jinxing and the others looked at Shen Ming in amazement, Dong Yiming said after a little silence: "No matter how late it is, today should let their mother and son meet, for a mother, more than 140 days of separation between mother and son can be called a second like a year." The child is in your county now, why is it too late to meet? ”

Shen Ming was a little embarrassed, "I'm thinking that everyone is tired from the journey. ”

"Please ask Director Shen to help us arrange it!" Dong Yiming insisted.

Shen Ming's mouth opened again and again, and Zhou Zhenjiang, secretary of the county political and legal committee who came with him, told the truth for him, "The matter has become so big, you still only know that you want to see people and release people, just avoid talking about the substantive issue!" It's better to wait for the time to talk, and you guys will see each other again! ”

Dong Yiming immediately proposed to immediately negotiate on this substantive issue!

Shen Ming and Zhou Zhenjiang went out to make a phone call together, and came back ten minutes later to take them to the conference room of the Lanli Hotel, Meng Jinxing and others found that in fact, Lanli County had already prepared for negotiations that night, and the county leaders and heads of relevant departments sat in the conference room early, and saw that although they were polite, their words were cold.

After the two sides took their respective seats, Shen Ming said that he would have to wait, and the peasant representatives of Leihe Town were rushing over.

The expressions of both sides were serious after the greetings, and the room was filled with smoke, and I don't know whose cough caused layers of loud echoes.

Twenty minutes later, the people arrived, and in addition to the representatives mentioned by Shen Ming, there were villagers who were old and young and had their families in tow, blocking the conference room outside the door.

The negotiations lasted for a long time, and the focus of the dispute always revolved around the question of whether to pay the money first.

Afterwards, when talking about negotiations on the plane back, the ** who went had the same idea as Meng Jinxing, and he wished that he had 100,000 yuan on him to take out this matter.

But the truth is, everyone knows you can't do that.

If this is done, it is tantamount to an invisible acquiescence to the practice of kidnapping the little hostages, and the so-called law and public order and good customs will become a ridiculous irony.

The tug-of-war continued in the conference room, and the peasants outside the door were on the verge of losing their patience, scolding people with fierce emotions, and some people even began to smash the door, smashing the children's nǎi bottles towards the representatives of Shencheng at the conference table......

Kang Yue went to the toilet, but was regarded as a representative of Shencheng by the farmers, and he was blocked in the toilet and almost couldn't come back......

Both sides were suffering physically and spiritually, and each negotiator felt a helpless and heavy pressure to move forward.

In the early morning, Kang Yue faced a stalemate, so he could only come up with the last killer weapon - if he couldn't see Ma Wenlong tomorrow morning, he would write an internal reference to reflect the situation.

Lanli finally relented.

At seven o'clock in the morning, Meng Jinxing and other negotiators accompanied Liu Fen in the lobby of the hotel, the May sun was already hanging in the sky, and the sun was shining brightly on Ma Wenlong, who had walked into the lobby by Jǐngcha, holding hands, and illuminating the pale face of the child, who had been illegally detained for 148 days, clearly and vividly.

The first time he saw Liu Fen, Ma Wenlong broke free from Jǐng Cha's hand and flew into Liu Fen's arms, and the mother and son hugged and cried as if no one was in the crowded lobby.

Meng Jinxing and the others all turned their faces away and hid their sour moods.

When Dong Yiming, Meng Jinxing and their entourage got off the plane at Dujiang Airport, they received news from Shencheng that the court had forcibly auctioned off the real estate purchased by Xu Jianguo in Dujiang and other personal properties that had been frozen, and that the proceeds of more than 100,000 yuan had been remitted to the Leihe Grain, Oil and Food Factory at one time.

This case, which shocked the high-level leaders in Beijing, has finally come to a successful end.

Meng Jinxing, who was sitting in the car bound for Changfeng, did not have a trace of joy in his heart, his heart was being pulled by the news about Zhong Minxiu from Changfeng......
