In the afternoon, a 212 from the Mining Area Industrial Bureau drove out of the city and went to the jade casting concentrate factory mentioned by Geng Dali last time, that is, the one that still owed 71,000 yuan worth of concentrate to the Ningyuan Rare Earth Metallurgical Plant.

The driver only knew that Director Geng had brought two friends from other places to "investigate", and after getting a pack of soft China, he kept his mouth shut and did not ask even a single question.

Geng Dali is a relatively open-minded cadre in the local area, and he is also in charge of the department, after going to the Yuzhu Concentrate Factory, under the same situation of the other party's factory production, it didn't take much effort to bring Zhong Bai and Ye Xing into the factory.

A few people walked east and west, not only obeying the rules, but also absolutely not asking any questions.

Of course, Zhong Bai is an exception, he is not wandering, but observing the specific process of producing rare earth concentrate in the other factory.

The method of extracting rare earth oxides is water immersion, and the wastewater is discharged directly into the soil, causing a large amount of soil pollution; The tailings produced by precipitation, which are residues containing a large number of heavy metal compounds and even a small number of radioactive elements, are also directly pulled away by car and transported to the nearby ground for dumping without any treatment; Moreover, the dumping sites of these tailings even cover some mining sites, which in turn causes a lot of waste and less mining of rare earth ore.

As for the specific value, there is no need to even ask the technicians in the factory, after a few people left, Zhong Bai secretly asked Geng Dali to ask the driver to drive the car to the place where they discharged tailings, carefully put on gloves, packed the samples in plastic bags, and collected a lot of wastewater with test tubes in the nearby small river that had been polluted and discolored, and then left.

After returning to the Industrial Bureau, Zhong Bai pulled Geng Dali aside again, and told him again: "Remember, no one should say anything about today's events, whether it is a colleague leader in the unit, or a wife and parents at home, you can't mention a word!" ”

"I ...... I see, Section Chief Zhong. Recalling those things Zhong Bai told himself before leaving, Geng Dali couldn't help but feel a little chill in his back, but since he had already gambled on his future, at this time, he could only listen to Section Chief Zhong Bai, and there was no way out!

"Don't worry, I, Zhong Bai, always talk the talk, as long as you don't expose any information, this matter will be over in a week at most, and at that time, I will find a way to ask Director Ye to greet your unit and keep you a position as deputy director." Zhong Bai said in an affirmative tone.

If you want the horse to run, you want the horse to eat grass, Zhong Bai knows this truth better than anyone else.

Geng Dali knew from the first day he met Zhong Bai that he was a cadre who was keen on power, but he was definitely not a bad cadre.

It's good to be passionate about power, as long as you use it in the right places.

This time, because the unannounced visit in the morning did not go well, he could not get the specific data on the environmental pollution caused by the production of concentrate by local concentrate plants, which caused the work to be stuck and could not be carried out anymore, Zhong Bai could only think of asking Geng Dali to help take everyone to take samples secretly.

Of course, if he didn't tell the other party the purpose of doing this, he couldn't be sure that Geng Dali would definitely help, so Zhong Bai still faintly revealed some news to him.

According to Zhong Bai's statement at the time, this was an unannounced inspection by the ministry, which was to arrest those manufacturers who did not follow the spirit of their superiors and illegally polluted the environment and produced indiscriminately.

Geng Dali understood this kind of thing as soon as he said it, but he didn't expect that this was just a small detail in the overall plan, and the real purpose was to reduce concentrate production by cracking down on illegal and substandard enterprises on the one hand, and curb the import of RB people by other means on the other.

Geng Dali's role is just to make the work of the previous part smoother.

Back at the guest house, Zhong Bai packed these things and handed them directly to the driver who drove them to the Baiyun Obo mining area in a military jeep, and told him to transport them directly to the laboratory of Jingcheng University, and after taking out the test results as soon as possible, he would immediately drive the report over.

It took at least three days to go back and forth, but Zhong Bai felt that three days was enough.

……

Meng Xiujie, deputy head of the district, never thought that the old process that had been working in the past - meeting and holding meetings, selecting points for research, eating and drinking, and finally sending off would not work on this investigation team.

Han Yi, deputy director of the rare earth office who led the team, took an unusual road from the first day he arrived in the district.

There are no "happy and peaceful" meet-and-greets, and there is no part of drinking and eating local specialties.

This Director Han asked Meng Xiujie to accompany them to more than a dozen concentrate factories with their names written from the very beginning!

Moreover, these more than a dozen concentrate factories are all the kind of kind of procedures that are not in order, or are counterfeit and affiliated with the township!

Although these concentrate plants do not have a downward control in the area, it does not mean that they can really produce with the same swagger as other regular concentrate plants.

And the reason why they were able to produce was that Director Han never asked all the way, and Meng Xiujie didn't have the courage to ask.

Because Meng Xiujie knew that since the other party could come over, he would go straight to these dozen concentrate factories, needless to say, there must have been an investigation in advance and he got the foundation.

If I explain it again, I'm afraid that the black gauze hat of the deputy district chief on my head will fall off!

You must know that the Rare Earth Office is subordinate to the Planning Commission, and what kind of unit is the State Planning Commission? Is it a small deputy district chief who can be tough and positive?

On the last day of the investigation, Han Yi finally took it seriously and talked to the deputy district chief who had been silent.

Han Yi's tone did not have any personal feelings in it: "District Chief Meng, I will inform you of the preliminary conclusion of this investigation, of course, this is verbal, and there will be a written preliminary conclusion later, and these need to be signed and confirmed before we will bring it back to the capital." ”

"Yes, yes, Director Han, you speak." At this time, Meng Xiujie only felt that his head was as big as a fight, and he spoke carefully, where was the majesty of losing his temper at the director of the power bureau?

"After investigation, there are at least 12 rare earth concentrate factories in your Baiyun Obo mining area that have incomplete procedures and do not have production qualifications. Do you admit that these concentrate factories are extremely informal in terms of hiring workers, paying taxes and fees, etc., and have great safety hazards? Han Yi asked as he took out a small notebook and a pen to record.

"I ...... Admit. Meng Xiujie suddenly explained: "But these are historical reasons, Director Han, ...... in our district."

"It's not time for you to explain, you answer my question first!" Seeing that Meng Xiujie was disobedient, Han Yi knocked the pen heavily and was stunned to calm the other party.
