Inside the office of the deputy director of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee.
After three days of investigation, Luo Hai finally found out what Peng Tian and Luo Yonghao had been doing, including Ye Beiping.
Because my team needed to go to Pingba Village to learn more, it took a little longer.
When Luo Hai handed the documents to Peng Yuhuai, he looked surprised: "Minister Peng, you don't know, Xiao Tian and my brat have really gotten themselves into a lot of trouble lately. No wonder they're making so much money. It turns out they've already set up shoe stalls in three districts."
Peng Yuhuai did not answer, but carefully read through the documents.
Bang!
Peng Yuhuai slammed the documents on the desk and said angrily, "Nonsense."
This startled Luo Hai.
"Minister Peng, what... what happened?"
Seeing Luo Hai's blank expression, Peng Yuhuai tapped the documents repeatedly with his finger and said angrily, "Don't you know this is illegal? Look at how many people they've hired, do they have any proper permits? This is speculation and profiteering, do you understand?"
After he said that, Luo Hai realized what was going on.
Previously, he was only happy that his son could make money with Peng Tian, which meant he had made connections with Peng Yuhuai and could earn a lot of money.
Now, after being reminded, I realize that although the economy has opened up, employing more than seven people constitutes speculation and profiteering.
Luo Hai was instantly terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.
The image in my mind was of Luo Yonghao, the son of a district head, engaging in speculative business, and then being slapped with silver bracelets, his back soaked with sweat.
But then he thought of Peng Tian, and Luo Hai turned to Peng Yuhuai and asked, "Minister Peng, what do we do now? Should we stop them?"
With Peng Yuhuai leading the way, he wasn't too worried.
Peng Yuhuai shook his head and sighed as he sat back down in his chair. Suddenly, he noticed a name appearing at the bottom of the document: Ye Beiping.
They directly extracted the information about Ye Beiping.
The more I looked, the more horrified I became; almost every line seemed like a tightrope walk, but the charges weren't that serious.
But he was teetering on the edge of speculation and profiteering.
Even though he didn't employ more than seven people when he set up a stall to sell leather shoes, there were more than dozens of people working for him.
They all purchased their goods from him.
They even had individual business licenses, which is what terrified Peng Yuhuai.
What's even more terrifying is that his own son and Luo Yonghao were constantly stealing each other's business, yet he didn't fight back. He even got two brothers named Jiang Hai and Jiang He taken to the police station, but Ye Beiping didn't say anything.
Peng Yuhuai understood the principle that a barking dog doesn't bite very well.
Having been in officialdom for so many years, what's truly terrifying isn't arrogant leaders, but those who completely ignore you.
The first reason they're ignoring you is that your work is unremarkable and completely unremarkable.
Secondly, it could be that someone looks down on you, or has a grudge against you and is looking for faults to bring you down and replace you with their own people.
Whether Ye Beiping is indifferent or lying low, Peng Yuhuai doesn't know.
However, judging from some events in Pingba Village, Ye Beiping is definitely not a simple person.
At the same time, he also clarified the relationship between his son, Luo Yonghao, and Ye Beiping.
It turns out that the conflict between the group started in Pingba Village.
The most important key points are Su Xinyi and another girl named Qiu Mingyue.
Luo Hai is quite capable; he thoroughly investigated the matter between Qiu Mingyue and the commune secretary, and the main issue was that the commune secretary was brought down.
Although the matter was not made public, it was still recorded in the internal files.
There is another person involved: Jin Aiguo.
Peng Yuhuai didn't recognize the name, so he frowned as soon as he saw it.
Who has the power to directly remove the commune secretary from office?
There is definitely no such person in the officialdom of Hangzhou, not even in previous leadership positions.
The higher-ups are probably either deceased or retired many years ago. If a leader with that kind of influence were to come, he couldn't possibly be unaware of it.
This puzzled Peng Yuhuai greatly.
It's quite normal that Peng Yuhuai was puzzled by the fact that one of them went into the military and the other into politics.
However, right now he is focused on his son and absolutely cannot let his son go down a dark path. Fortunately, the matter was discovered early. If it had been exposed, he, as the deputy minister, probably wouldn't have been able to cover it up.
Looking at Luo Hai in front of him, Peng Yuhuai circled around twice before saying, "Old Luo, this matter concerns the future of our two children and us. We absolutely cannot let them continue to act recklessly like this. Speculation is no small matter, especially for us sons of officials."
Luo Yonghao may not be considered a son of an official, but Peng Tian certainly is.
Peng Yuhuai knew all too well how many people were eyeing his position. If it weren't for the powerful people behind him, he probably would have been promoted to a leisurely job in the municipal party committee at best, instead of reaching such an important position.
What does the Organization Department do? It coordinates the work arrangements and personnel arrangements for the entire city. All large-scale meetings and such need to go through the Organization Department, including personnel appointments.
Sitting in this position means that the person behind you has a say in the appointment of officials in the entire Hangzhou city.
If he were to step down because of his son's negligence, the people behind him would probably abandon him immediately.
Luo Hai knew what Peng Yuhuai meant, and immediately stood up, ready to fight: "Minister Peng, tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Luo Hai knew the matter was serious, given that it concerned his own son.
