It turned out that in the eyes of many provincial organs and city and state leaders, Xu Lizhong is the representative of Secretary Lu. Moreover, because Xu Lizhong is extremely strict with himself and abides by the discipline of the secretary, he usually does not associate with the heads of these provincial organs or local officials except for necessary work contacts. Therefore, many officials regard drinking tea and eating with Xu Lizhong as a rare honor, and use this to measure the relationship between officials and Secretary Lu.

Because of this, when Guo Guangwei received Xu Lizhong's call, he couldn't help but be a little flattered, and subconsciously had the pleasure of being favored by Secretary Lu. Therefore, he hurriedly proposed to go outside to get together with him, the purpose was to deepen his personal relationship with Xu Lizhong by drinking tea and chatting.

Xu Lizhong didn't want to go directly to the family area of the Public Security Department to find Guo Guangwei, and when he invited him to sit outside, he readily agreed.

At this time, it was already more than 10 o'clock in the evening, and Secretary Lu was holding an important meeting of the Standing Committee to study the issue of deploying the province to carry out civic moral education, and it was estimated that it would not be completed until the early morning. Moreover, Secretary Lu also told him to let him rest by himself without waiting for him to finish the meeting. Therefore, Xu Lizhong walked out of the gate of the provincial party committee, stopped on the side of the highway, called Guo Guangwei to ask where he was going to drink tea, and said that he would call him immediately.

When Guo Guangwei heard that he was going to take a taxi to go out, he was a little surprised and said, "Director Xu, you are too strict with yourself!" You are the deputy director of the Second Division of the Secretary of the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee, and you directly serve Secretary Lu, do you still need less than a car to travel? So be it: you wait at the gate of the provincial party committee, and I will personally drive to pick you up. ”

Ten minutes later, Guo Guangwei drove an Audi car, picked up Xu Lizhong at the gate of the provincial party committee, took him to a clean and elegant teahouse in Tongsheng Lane, Huafu Road, found a small box with a carved tea set, asked the waiter to make a pot of kung fu tea, and waved her out, and then slowly tasted Tieguanyin with Xu Lizhong, and chatted for a few minutes without a word.

Guo Guangwei knew that Xu Lizhong definitely had something to do with him today. Therefore, after chatting for a while, he asked: "Director Xu, I know that you are a busy person, and it is rare for Yaxing to come out and sit down." By age, I'm going to call you an old brother. If there's something really going on, brother, please say it directly. As long as it is within the scope of my duties, I will do my best to do it. ”

Xu Lizhong smiled and said unhurriedly: "Director Guo, you are too polite. I'm visiting you today and I do have something I want to trouble you. It's just that this matter is a bit sensitive, and I'm too embarrassed to speak! ”

Guo Guangwei hurriedly said: "Director Xu, if you have anything, just say it." I don't dare to say anything else, but if it's something within our system, I've worked in the provincial department for more than 20 years, and I've been the deputy director for 10 years. ”

Xu Lizhong nodded, picked up the delicate and exquisite kung fu teacup, took a small sip, and then said: "That's the case: I have a friend who has a very good relationship, and he is from Xinleng County, K City. He played well with a businessman surnamed Gong in Xinleng County, and it is said that they usually call each other brothers. Just now, a friend of mine suddenly called me for help, saying that several of the businessman's subordinates surnamed Gong had suddenly disappeared, along with their family members. They estimated that the missing people were probably secretly arrested by the public security organs. The reason for his arrest is probably because his subordinates usually have some problems such as bullying and dominating the market and illegal interest rates.

After this happened, the businessman surnamed Gong was very worried: because he turned out to be a somewhat famous figure in Xinleng County, that is, the so-called big brother in society. Moreover, because of some illegal and criminal acts, he also went to the detention center. It's just that in recent years, he has changed his ways, and he has been very successful in doing business, running several companies, and is a big local taxpayer.

"According to my friend, this businessman surnamed Gong not only makes money, but also has a good character, and is not the kind of underworld boss who only bullies the good people on the street by beating and killing, but can be regarded as a righteous man. It's just that because of his previous disgraceful experiences, and his current subordinates are also a little disobedient to him, disobey his control, and do some inauthentic things. Therefore, he was worried that their affairs would implicate him, so he entrusted my friend to come forward to find a relationship with him, find out the cause and effect of this matter, and judge whether he would be implicated.

"I'm looking for you today, just to ask you to ask: Is there any action specifically against the businessman surnamed Gong and his subordinates? If so, what is the nature of the matter? How big will the stakes be? Is it a special anti-gang and anti-evil operation? ”

Xu Lizhong's words were more euphemistic and subtle, but Guo Guangwei, who had been in the public security system for decades, still understood at once: The businessman surnamed Gong is likely to be an underworld boss. This time, the K City Public Security Bureau secretly arrested several subordinates surnamed Gong, most likely to take an anti-gang and anti-evil operation, and the target was the businessman surnamed Gong.

However, no matter who the surname Gong is, if he can get a character like Xu Lizhong to come out to intercede for him, then himself, or his mysterious friend who asked Xu Lizhong for help, is likely to be an extremely powerful character - you know, with Xu Lizhong's identity and his indifferent character, if he wants to stand up willingly to intercede for someone, in the entire Tianjiang Province, I am afraid that he will not be able to find two people.

Therefore, he decided: No matter what the character of the businessman surnamed Gong is, as long as he does not commit any heinous crimes, he must help Xu Lizhong with this. Because, he already felt it: the person who asked Xu Lizhong for help to intercede is likely to have a big backer and background. Otherwise, Xu Lizhong, the secretary of the provincial party committee who had just been transferred from other provinces, would not have come forward to intercede for him in person.

So, after Xu Lizhong made a few requests, he nodded without hesitation and said, "Director Xu, I don't know anything about this matter. I'll call you right now and get you informed. However, I can tell you one thing clearly: our provincial department has not recently arranged the deployment of any special operations to eliminate gangsters and vices. I estimate that the case of Xinleng County is an isolated case, which should be arranged by the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government of City K, and it may not be reported to our provincial department in advance. I first asked about the situation, and then called the main leaders of K City and the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. If it weren't for the fact that it was involved in some particularly serious case, your friend's case should be fine. ”
