Chapter 282: Everyone is a pawn
Minister of Railways Kang Yiguo has not been able to contact his son Kang Li for five days, and even Guo Degang, who has been with Kang Li all day, has not been able to contact him. A hint of foreboding surged into Kang Yiguo's heart: Could it be that something happened to Lilai? No, there won't be a little bit of noise, right? Kang Yiguo made dozens of calls one after another, but he still didn't get any news from his son.
After Kang Lilai and Guo Degang were taken away by plainclothes police at the customs, they were immediately separated and taken to a different place for detention, waiting for interrogation by a special case team from Beijing.
Cui Xishan, who had obtained conclusive evidence, reported to Premier Yang Jianguo for approval, removed five politically reliable and professionally capable comrades from the public security system in the capital, formed a special task force, and went to two places to begin the interrogation of Kang Lilai and Guo Degang.
After several days of arduous competition, Kang Lilai and Guo Degang both truthfully confessed to embezzlement, embezzlement of huge amounts of state funds, and went to Macao to gamble, and at the same time, they also confessed to the crime of buying and killing Fan Yaoqiang of the Shuangjiang Group in order to get a vacant auction land in Beijing.
Regarding the source of the huge amount of funds, Kang Lilai wanted to shirk for Lao Tzu Kang Yiguo at first, but the interrogation experts of the task force were experienced and had various methods.
After summarizing the materials of Kang Lilai and Guo Degang, the task force immediately flew back to the capital and reported to Cui Xishan, secretary of the Beijing Political and Legal Committee.
Due to the seriousness of the case and the fact that it involved the current ministerial-level senior officials, Cui Xishan also understood the true intention of Premier Yang's move, so he immediately called Premier Yang Jianguo, and Premier Yang Jianguo instructed Cui Xishan to rush over immediately with the materials and report in person.
In the office of Premier Yang Jianguo of the State Council, Cui Xishan has been sitting on the sofa for almost an hour. Opposite him, Yang Jianguo sat behind a large desk, looking intently at the materials brought by Cui Xishan, and recording something in his notebook from time to time. In the meantime, only Yang Jianguo's secretary Gu Yifan came in lightly and added water to Cui Xishan's cup a few times, and no one else bothered him.
After more than ten minutes, Yang Jianguo raised his head, took off his glasses, sighed, and said with a serious face: "Comrade Cui Xishan, you immediately arrange for someone to seal up the Panlong Construction Company, seal all the accounts for verification, and you must implement the funds one by one to ensure that the evidence is conclusive." It's just so unbelievable, the state's money has simply become their family's private bank. I will report this case to the general secretary immediately. ”
Cui Xishan knew that it was time to leave, he stood up and said, "Premier Yang, I'll arrange it immediately when I go back." ”
Yang Jianguo walked out from behind the desk, held Cui Xishan's hand and said, "Comrade Xishan, then it's hard for you." ”
After Cui Xishan left, Yang Jianguo touched the red phone on the table, pressed a number, and said after the phone was connected: "General Secretary Zhen, do you have time now?" There is an emergency that needs to be reported to you. ”
Zhen Xinghua, the current general secretary of the country, is also a very pragmatic leader, and he also knows that this term of office will be his last, so he also wants to do a good job in the reform of the economic and political system, so that a prosperous, prosperous, strong, and stable country can be smoothly handed over to the next national leader.
After receiving Yang Jianguo's call, Zhen Xinghua was stunned in his heart, he didn't know what was going on, but Premier Yang Jianguo's call must be a major matter that he couldn't make, so he immediately agreed to Yang Jianguo's request to see.
Half an hour later, Yang Jianguo came to Zhen Xinghua's office, and after the two shook hands and said hello, Yang Jianguo sat on the sofa next to him and said straight to the point: "General Secretary, Kang Lilai, the son of Comrade Kang Yiguo of the Ministry of Railways, has been detained by the public security organs on suspicion of hiring murderers, embezzlement of public funds, and going abroad to participate in gambling. ”
Zhen Xinghua was stunned when he heard this, and he had also heard a little about the rumors about Kang Lilai, but when the rumors were confirmed, Zhen Xinghua was also surprised, "Prime Minister, how does this Kang Yinian discipline his children?" Didn't you find it all along? ”
"General Secretary, most of the money lost by Kang Lilai was allocated to his son by Comrade Kang Yinian in violation of regulations, and it was all transferred to the account of a subsidiary under the Ministry of Railways." Yang Jianguo took out the interrogation transcript from Kang Li and handed it to Zhen Xinghua.
Zhen Xinghua looked at it with a focused view, and said angrily: "The two of them treat the country's money as their own, it's really hateful!" ”
Yang Jianguo was secretly happy in his heart, but his face was silent, "General Secretary, now the people have a lot of opinions on the Ministry of Railways, and they all say that the Ministry of Railways participates in the competition with other transportation industries, such as aviation, shipping and highways in the name of national ministries and commissions, which is unfair and lacks scientificity. Nowadays, it is difficult to find a ticket on the railway, and every year millions of passengers are stranded and unable to return home in time to reunite, of course, there are several reasons for the unique festivals of our country, but there are also reasons for the poor work of the Ministry of Railways. There is also the chaos of the Ministry of Railways' project contracting, and hundreds of billions of capital projects every year are easy to breed and produce tofu slag projects. General! These situations cannot but arouse our attention! ”
Zhen Xinghua paced back and forth in the spacious office, and after walking for a few minutes, he stopped in front of Yang Jianguo and asked, "Prime Minister, it seems that you have made up your mind to reform the Ministry of Railways?" ”
"Yes! There is no way out without reform, and now the Ministry of Railways is already in debt of trillions, and the government can no longer pay for them. Yang Jianguo said firmly.
"Hehe, how did Comrade Cui Xishan catch Kanglilai's braids?" Zhen Xinghua's words turned sharply, and he looked at Yang Jianguo and asked.
Yang Jianguo knew that many things in the capital could not be hidden from Zhen Xinghua's eyes, so he did not hide it, and told in detail about the killing of Fan Yaoqiang, the vice president of Shuangjiang Group, Jiang Tao went to Macao to collect evidence, and set up a special case team to investigate, Yang Jianguo finally said: "As for Comrade Jiang Tao's trip to Macao, I personally think that the approach is inappropriate, but in that case, I have to make this decision, Comrade Jiang Tao said that if he wins the bet, he will donate all the profits to Tang Min's Righteousness and Courage Foundation." ”
Zhen Xinghua smiled slightly, "Prime Minister, since ancient times, those who have become great things are not confined to small sections, I think Comrade Jiang Tao has paid for the country by himself, and he can give up tens of millions, this mind is also worthy of praise, he has also worked in Shangze City for a few years, I heard that his political achievements are not bad, he is a talent." ”
Where can Yang Jianguo let go of the opportunity in front of him, since the general secretary said so, there is no reason for him not to climb the pole, "General Secretary, I want Comrade Jiang Tao to go to the Ministry of Railways, what do you mean?" ”
Zhen Xinghua was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Prime Minister, Jiang Tao is indeed a talent, but it is not appropriate for him to come to the capital, this Beijing official is not good, let's talk about Kang Yinian's problem, I feel that it is very difficult to deal with, maybe there will be old comrades who jump out and say irresponsible things, you can't arrest the two of you together, right?" ”
Yang Jianguo was also stunned when he heard Zhen Xinghua's words, and when he thought of the complicated relationship in the capital, he understood that the general secretary also had difficulties, so he nodded in agreement.
"I think it's good to let Comrade Jiang Tao continue to exercise below, give him a bigger stage, and let him fully show his talents!" Zhen Xinghua continued.
Yang Jianguo understood what the general secretary meant, he thought for a while and said: "General secretary, I want to go to Qilu Province to see, I promised Jiang Tao to go to the Tang Min Foundation, I can't break my trust." ”
"Good! Tomorrow I will talk with Comrade Kang Yinian, his age is not young, his health is not good, he can take a proper rest, I think the Ministry of Railways reform can be ventilated at the meeting first, to see the reaction of other comrades, I raise my hands in favor, but this matter cannot be rushed, after all, it is related to the question of the fate and retention of millions of people in the Ministry of Railways. Zhen Xinghua said.
Yang Jianguo understood what Zhen Xinghua meant, and now there was only that, he said goodbye to Zhen Xinghua and returned to the office of the State Council.
After Jiang Tao and Liu Renjie returned to China, he immediately transferred all the money he won in Macau to the account of the Tang Min Foundation, although it was anonymous, but after all, there was a transfer record on the bank card, and once something unfavorable to Jiang Tao occurred in the future, this was also a very favorable evidence for Jiang Tao's defense.
A few days after Jiang Tao came back from Macau, Yang Danning also came back from the United States, she did not take a flight to Jibei, but went to the capital first, after all, she had not seen her two sons for many days, and she missed her very much.
Knowing that his granddaughter was back, Yang Jianguo deliberately got off work early and returned home, and when he walked into the house, Yang Jianguo saw Yang Danning playing with his two sons in the living room, and the mother and son were very happy.
Seeing his grandfather come back, the two little guys immediately left their mother and ran to Yang Jianguo's side, one holding a hand, and the grandfather and grandfather kept screaming in their mouths, so happy that Yang Jianguo's mouth couldn't close.
Yang Jianguo played with his two grandsons for a while, and remembered that he had something to say to Yang Danning, so he beckoned the nanny to take the child away, he got up and said to Yang Danning: "Xiao Ning, follow me!" ”
Yang Danning followed his grandfather into the study, Yang Jianguo motioned for Yang Danning to sit down and talk, Yang Danning had never seen his grandfather be so formal to her, and he didn't get used to it for a while, and looked at his grandfather blankly.
Seeing this, Yang Jianguo smiled and said: "Xiao Ning, I went to see the general secretary, and I mentioned to him that I wanted to arrange Jiang Tao into the Ministry of Railways, but the general secretary disagreed, and told me his idea, Xiao Ning, I want Jiang Tao to go to the west, what do you think?" ”
Yang Danning thought for a while and said, "Grandpa, did the general secretary say Kang Yinian's problem?" ”
"Hehe, you girl is smart, tell me what you think?" Yang Jianguo looked at his granddaughter appreciatively and said.
"Grandpa, in fact, the general secretary just thinks too much, I guess he is taking into account the stability of the high-level, if you deal with Kang Yinian, Jiang Tao comes up again, I'm afraid many people will be uncomfortable, I feel that you let Jiang Tao go to the west, this move is good, he has nothing to do in Qilu Province, but the west is different, the political achievements can be seen and touched, when the time comes, if you say another word, I am afraid it will block many people's mouths, I agree with you." Yang Danning is worthy of being a journalist, and he sees problems very deeply and keenly.
"Hmmm! When you see Jiang Tao, you will reveal my meaning to him, so that he can be mentally prepared. Yang Jianguo said.
"Grandpa, can you determine which province it is?" Yang Danning asked.
"I'm afraid this will have to go to the Politburo Standing Committee, it's hard to say now." Yang Jianguo shook his head and said.
But Yang Jianguo would not have thought that a shocking tragedy that happened in Western X Province a month later gave Jiang Tao a chance!
