Chapter 1159: Pulling out the radish brings out the mud

As the situation outside was not peaceful at the moment and Lu Miao was known to be a tough guy, Director Chu had to make the trip in person in order to prevent the matter from getting out of hand and causing more trouble.

Although Lu Miao was not clear about the details, after thinking about it, she couldn't help but have more guesses in her mind.

The Min family is suspected of corruption and bribery, and the whole family is so arrogant.

If there were no interests tied to them, would they look down upon the background of this small director of the Chu family?

I’m afraid this Chu family is not clean either.

Or perhaps there may be a more complex and complicated "web" hidden behind this.

Lu Miao tapped lightly on the desk surface with his fingertips.

Just as the doubts arose, and before I could think too deeply about it, there were a few "knock knock knock" sounds.

Someone knocked on the office door:

"Minister Lu, Minister Zhan asked you to come over when you're not busy."

He is Minister Zhan's assistant.

"Got it. I'll be there in a minute."

Lu Miao collected his thoughts and responded casually.

After collecting the documents and putting them into a file bag, she put everything into the drawer and stood up.

"You go ahead and do your work. I'll talk about this when I get back later."

Yu Hong nodded gently: "Yes."

Let’s talk about Lu Miao going to Minister Zhan’s office.

Minister Zhan didn't come to see her for any other reason, but mainly because he heard that Director Chu from the Ministry of Foreign Trade had come to see her a few days ago. Minister Zhan was worried, so he came to ask her what was going on.

Lu Miao didn't tell the whole story, just said it was a personal matter.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Minister Zhan's expression suddenly became serious.

Seeing that he looked uneasy, Lu Miao asked carefully:

"Minister, is there something going on?"

Minister Zhan glanced at her thoughtfully, and his next words surprised her:

"The people who were previously detained gave us a clue. They said that Director Chu secretly accepted several smuggling funds. The higher-ups sent people to investigate, and now they have the person under arrest."

Lu Miao's eyes widened slightly.

If he can control people, it means that there is indeed a problem with Director Chu.

Although he had guessed it long ago, Lu Miao was still surprised when he heard the news after it was confirmed.

When he came that day, I saw that his temples were gray and his Zhongshan suit was as worn as it could be.

My initial impression was that he was just an official with no official salary, who could have expected that he would be such a despicable person?

Lu Miao was thinking about these things with a frown on her face when Minister Zhan suddenly knocked on the table and looked at her scrutinizingly.

"Xiao Lu, it's not easy for a girl to reach this point. You have a promising career ahead of you. At this critical juncture, you must not go astray."

Lu Miao paused slightly, and when he met Minister Zhan's gaze, he understood what Minister Zhan was worried about.

Lu Miao smiled helplessly and told her the truth about Director Chu coming to see her a few days ago. At the end, she said:

"Don't worry about this. I know how to take care of my feathers better than anyone else."

"That's good."

Minister Zhan nodded, feeling very relieved, but in a moment he became serious again:

"Why didn't you report this incident before? Regardless of his background and identity, he openly challenged the official business. This is no ordinary incident!"

"Uh, this... hehe..."

Lu Miao scratched his forehead and fell silent.

Can she speak?

I really didn't think about it that way at first.

But even if she thought about it, she wouldn't really expect her unit to handle the problem for her.

As Director Zhang of the Public Security Bureau said, no substantial harm or loss was caused, and if the situation gets out of hand, the most that can be done is a few verbal reprimands.

More likely, the unit will choose to keep quiet.

This is because Minister Zhan values ​​her and has always treated her as his student and apprentice, which is why he is serious about this matter.

Lu Miao shook his head and smiled nonchalantly:

"It's all in the past. And now Director Chu is being detained for his involvement in this incident. This can probably be considered as an explanation to me."

Minister Zhan stared at her intently, then sighed and waved his hand:

"...Well, I know about this. Go back and work in peace."

"yes."

Lu Miao smiled and nodded, and only after leaving the office did he let out a light breath and relaxed his shoulders.

She stood under the window of the balcony separated by the corridor and looked out. The haze-colored clouds were lighter than in the morning, and strands of warm sunlight poured down through the overlapping gaps.

The spring rain has been falling intermittently for several days, and it seems that the weather has completely cleared up today.

The incident that started with the Chu family's father and son came to a temporary halt as the Chu family stepped into a minefield and was brought under control.

The sense of crisis seemed to have been resolved, but from this incident, one could also vaguely glimpse more problems behind it...

When you pull out a radish, you bring out the dirt. Just the Min family has pulled out such a lot of dirt. How much more dirt is hidden behind this?

Never mind.

Let’s leave national affairs to great men!

As for her?

Do your job and do what you should do!

If she hadn't been offended, she wouldn't have had the free time or energy to investigate other people's "little secrets".

She is busy.

While thinking, I returned to the office and saw Yu Hong just putting down the phone receiver on the corner of the table.

Seeing her come back, Yu Hong said:

"Senior, the seamstress just called and said they've just received a batch of Xiangyun yarn. She asked you to come take a look when you have time. The Canton Fair is about to open, and we don't have much time left to prepare the clothes for the event."

Lu Miao nodded and said:

"It's getting late today. Let's go over and take a look together tomorrow morning."

"yes."

…

After returning from a business trip to Guangzhou and staying there for a short while, it was April and everything was dedicated to the Canton Fair, so Lu Miao was about to start his second round of business trips.

This time the task was not as heavy as in the past. In the past, she was mainly responsible for keeping an eye on the newly trained model team.

Once these people can adapt to the Canton Fair, everyone's work will be much easier in the future...

Besides, during the preparation for departure, Lu Miao contacted Chen Xiangdong once.

There is a reshuffle in Beijing and the north, especially in the Ministry of Finance.

Several corrupt officials were arrested in succession, causing panic among the people and keeping a close watch on everything.

Lu Miao also had to be more cautious.

She asked Chen Xiangdong to visit less frequently when there was nothing going on, and even if there was something going on, try to resolve it over the phone.

In addition, she asked Mei Zi to come over.

Just like opening a factory or a company requires someone to openly represent her position.

Although she had a general idea of ​​things like lipsticks and perfumes, she had her main job and most of the time she had neither the time nor the convenience to do many things herself.

Then at this time, there also needs to be someone to be the "she" in front of the screen

Everyone in the factory has their own duties.

Ma Tou's cousin will also be coming over in the next few days, and Lin Xian is responsible for the training work, so she can't spare time.

Mei Zi is undoubtedly the most suitable person.

Because he has a day job, Lu Miao can only teach Mei Zi from after get off work until the evening.
