Chapter 016: Automotive Middlemen
Li Lu found Liang Hongbing, as far as the current situation is concerned, the only person in the ruling system he knows is Liang Hongbing. has the previous sympathy, and Li Lu doesn't care about owing Liang Hongbing a favor.
It was still in a small restaurant where I drank for the first time, a few tables were set up on the side of the road, and near the entrance of the alley, the two sat down and ordered the food and drink.
After three rounds of drinking, Li Lu said, "Team Liang, I have been busy for a short time, I haven't had time to thank you, I salute you for this glass, thank you for your help." ”
Liang Hongbing blocked Li Lu's hand and asked, "Where did you start with this?" ”
Liang Hongbing, who is in his early forties, is the head of the regiment and has changed careers, and it is not an exaggeration for Li Lu to call the chief. If it weren't for the special period, he wouldn't be just a criminal police captain of the substation.
Li Lu said, "It's not easy for me to work in the Guangming Factory, if it weren't for your greeting, I wouldn't have joined the company to serve as the deputy chief of the security section." ”
Suddenly, Liang Hongbing was stunned and looked at Li Lu suspiciously.
After a while, Liang Hongbing frowned and asked, "Xiao Li, is there anyone in your family who works in the party, government, and military system?" ”
Li Lu shook his head blankly and said, "My family is dead and separated, except for my adoptive father and adoptive mother who raised me as an adult, I have no relatives in Lugang. ”
"And who are your adoptive parents?" Liang Hongbing asked.
"It's all farmers."
Glancing at Li Lu deeply, Liang Hongbing said meaningfully, "Do you know what level the deputy chief of the security section of the Guangming Factory is?" ”
Li Lu shook his head.
"Deputy section level, and our sub-bureau chief and deputy director are at the same level. The director of Guangming Factory is the main hall, and the mayor is at the same level, and the director of Guangming Factory enjoys the treatment of deputy provincial level. Liang Hongbing said, "Do you think that my little criminal police captain has the ability to make you a deputy section chief?" ”
Saying this, Li Lu was also blindfolded, and he really didn't think deeply about it.
"If it's not someone behind you who speaks for you, then the factory leaders value you very much. Good boy, you're a whole level higher than me when you join the company. Liang Hongbing raised his glass, "It should be me to salute you!" ”
Li Lu did it, but he was still puzzled, and said, "But I don't have an administrative establishment, just an employee." ”
Stunned, Liang Hongbing thought for a while and said, "It's not surprising, after a period of transition, sooner or later you will have to carry out the political establishment." After the Guangming Factory is all handed over to the local government in the future, your administrative editor is a certainty. ”
Someone behind you to speak for you? This is highly unlikely. Li Lu has lost contact with his biological parents, and his grandfather's life and death are unknown, where is there anyone to speak for him.
Maybe the factory leaders valued his title of combat hero and arranged a deputy section chief who was not an administrative editor, which can only be explained in this way.
But Li Lu doesn't care about this, his heart is not on this, he will still come out to work alone in the future, with the big tree of Guangming Factory in front of him, completing his primitive accumulation is the last resort, and it is also the fastest way to find.
Shaking his head and not thinking about this, Li Lu asked: "Team Liang, there are more than a dozen off-road vehicles parked on the west section of Haibin Avenue, what is the situation?" ”
Liang Hongbing took a bite of the food, and when he heard it, he sighed and said, "You said those confiscated cars." The island country smuggled it, but the ship had a problem, and it was caught by the navy and dragged back directly. ”
"Navy?" Li Lu wondered.
"Hmm." Liang Hongbing spread his hands and said, "The navy wants to fill the troops as trophies, but the Customs Anti-Smuggling Bureau does not agree, and there is a war of words, and no one will give in." There was no suitable place, so I stopped in that open space for the time being. ”
Li Lu frowned and said, "So it was an unexpected joy for the navy, and it turned out that the Customs Anti-Smuggling Bureau came to pick peaches." ”
"It was originally under the control of the Anti-Smuggling Bureau of Customs, and the Navy went up to help at that time, and the smuggling car was accidentally discovered. Anyway, it's very chaotic now, and they don't give in, and even the leaders of the city government have a headache. I don't know what to do with this batch of cars. Liang Hongbing said.
He was also present at that time, so many cars went ashore, and it was the jurisdiction of the Xicheng Branch, so he had to be there to maintain order.
"Now it's my headache, I send people to watch that batch of cars 24 hours a day, and the Xicheng Branch is responsible for the problem." Liang Hongbing said with a wry smile, "I'm a criminal police captain who has done the work of law and order, what kind of business is this." ”
Li Lu asked quietly, "What kind of cars are those from, and what is the price?" ”
"I don't know, it's bigger than 212, it's not a valuable car." Liang Hongbing said.
Decades of closure have greatly limited the vision of the Chinese people, although it has been open for two or three years, it is not an overnight cold to freeze a foot, and I don't know the value of those cars. In the current impression of Chinese people, I am afraid that Shanghai cars and some imported island dukes, crowns, etc., are high-end cars. Except, of course, the national car Hongqi.
In fact, none of the smuggled off-road vehicles were sold at a market price cheaper than the likes of Duke Crown.
Li Lu spent a whole day and didn't come up with any way to get these cars, not to mention all of them, as long as he got a part of them, it would be a huge profit. Even the city government probably doesn't know where these cars can really play a role, and the blockage of information brings all kinds of business opportunities. Of course, this is for people like Li Lu who have memories of the future.
"Team Liang, if I want one, what should I do?" Li Lu thought about it carefully and decided to ask Liang Hongbing what he meant.
Liang Hongbing was taken aback, "Do you want it?" Buying a car? No matter how cheap it is, it costs a lot of money. ”
He didn't believe that Li Lu could come up with the money for a car, and nowadays, the cheapest cars cost more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan, which is not something that a person can afford at all, and there is no place to buy what he can afford. What a concept, equivalent to his eighty years of salary. Even if the smuggled car is disposed of cheaply, it is not much cheaper.
However, Li Lu knows that the anti-smuggling department of Lugang City Customs has never dealt with smuggled cars at all, and has no experience in this area at all. If I am not mistaken, this anti-smuggling operation with a lot of black humor is definitely the first in the dry port area.
Thinking of this, Li Lu said, "I think I have a way to dispose of these cars to the satisfaction of the military and anti-smuggling departments, including the city government." ”
"Do you have a way?" No matter how much he could afford him, Liang Hongbing had to look at him with suspicion.
Li Lu glanced at the slowly setting sunset in the west, retracted his gaze, and said, "Sell it." The car is not easy to divide, and if you don't want it, everyone will never refuse money. ”
Liang Hongbing's brows jumped, but then he smiled and said, "You kid." The main point of contention is how to divide it. The Customs Anti-Smuggling Bureau doesn't need so many cars, the city government wants to use it but doesn't have the money, so needless to say, the Navy doesn't need to say, where does the poor Jingle have the money to give to the Customs Anti-Smuggling Bureau. It's a stalemate. Selling is of course the best way to go, the question is who to sell to. Even if a few rich people can afford it, more than ten units will be sold until the Year of the Monkey. ”
Li Lu took a sip of wine and said confidently, "Team Liang, if you can get in touch, I'll do the rest." I promise to sell all of these cars in the shortest possible time. ”
"You're not kidding?"
After a while, Liang Hongbing stared at Li Lu and asked.
Li Lu said, "I won't joke about such things. It is nothing new to deal with confiscated goods and collect the proceeds into the national treasury. ”
Taking a deep breath, Liang Hongbing stared at Li Lu for a long time, then suddenly slapped the table and pointed at Li Lu, "You wait here, I'll be back soon!" ”
With that, he got up and walked to the 212 jeep, jumped on the accelerator and left.
About fifteen minutes later, the 212 jeep came back, Liang Hongbing got out of the car, and with him, there was a man about the same age as him, wearing a cadre uniform. The so-called cadre uniform is a tunic with a pen pinned to the pocket.
Sitting down, Liang Hongbing introduced, "This is Secretary Zhou, and this is Comrade Li Lu, the combat hero I mentioned to you, and the deputy chief of the Security Section of Guangming Factory." ”
Secretary Zhou looked a little anxious, but he didn't underestimate Li Lu because he was young, how many combat heroes can there be in the country, which one is not young, and most of them are martyrs. As for the deputy chief of the security section of the Guangming Factory, he has no idea, because the Guangming Factory is still subordinate to the military industrial system, and its relationship with the local government is not very deep.
"Comrade Xiao Li, the Red Soldier said that you have a way to sell those cars, seriously?" Secretary Zhou asked directly.
It looks like I'm really in a hurry.
I have to be anxious, the army and the customs anti-smuggling bureau are deadlocked, and the city government has the intention to reconcile and want to get some benefits from it, even if a few cars are left behind. Those cars look masculine and domineering, and they are all stronger than 212 Jeeps.
If you can exchange the car for money, it will be free money, unplanned income!
But after all these days, I don't have a clue at all.
The longer it drags on, the more it is reported, there will be nothing to do in the dry port area. The leader is in a hurry, and he is even more anxious as a secretary. If there is a way to help the leader solve the problem, it will be much easier to move up the ladder in the future.
Listening to Liang Hongbing say that there is a way, Secretary Zhou also came over with the mentality of a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and he will try it if it works.
Li Lu smiled faintly and said, "Hello Secretary Zhou." Yes, I have a way to sell the car. There are a few prerequisites, though. ”
Secretary Zhou subconsciously asked, "Where are you going to sell it?" Delta? ”
Li Lu smiled silently.
Secretary Zhou realized that he was abrupt, if he told himself, then what did he want others to do. The trend of doing business in the coastal areas is much stronger than that in the interior, and the phenomenon of many cadres and workers doing business in private is also increasing. The young deputy section chief of Guangming Factory probably wanted to engage in the business of intermediary dealers, and Secretary Zhou could also express his understanding.
It was originally a batch of windfall cars, as long as it could be exchanged for money, other issues were not important. That's what leadership means.
The most important thing is that the city government is very poor, so poor that it can't even pay its wages in many cases! If you can get a windfall income for the leader, what kind of praise will you receive? In the eyes of the leader, his own weight is naturally heavier.
How poor the government's finances were at this time is unimaginable to ordinary people, and compared to the situation of a few decades later, when there is no money to spend at the end of the year, heaven and hell are divided.
"Xiao Li, tell me about it." Secretary Zhou said.
Li Lu glanced at Liang Hongbing, and Liang Hongbing said, "Lao Zhou is my old classmate, my own people, you can rest assured." ”
Secretary Zhou continued, "Xiao Li, Lao Liang is right, you boldly say it, no matter whether it succeeds or not, I will remember you well." ”
Smiling, Li Lu said, "Secretary Zhou, in fact, the conditions are very simple. First of all, to solve the problem of smuggling the car, it must be legal in terms of laws and regulations. Others spend more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan to buy a car, but they can't get a license plate. Secondly, I need a power of attorney, a power of attorney issued in the name of the city government, entrusting me with full authority to handle these cars. ”
Secretary Zhou was stunned for a moment.
Neither condition is simple!
