The Ya fish in Ya City tastes really good. Xu Liming told Yuan Fangguo that such a taste cannot be made in other places. The main reason is not only that the Ya fish survives in the turbulent Ya River and has delicious meat, but also the combined effect of the Ya River water and local pepper.
Ya City is very close to the source of the Ya River. There are no large pollution sources from the source to Ya City, resulting in the water quality of the Ya River being quite good. The local climate has abundant rainfall all year round, making the fresh and spicy taste of the Sichuan peppercorns more authentic than in other places. This is why the local grilled fish tastes quite good.
The two of them leisurely admired the beautiful night view, ate delicious Ya fish, and drank ice-cold beer. Xu Liming told Yuan Fangguo that it was rare for him to have such free time, because his wife and children were in Chengdu, so he basically went back and forth between the two places in Ya City, and spent most of his time in the office or at the grassroots level.
It was not until 9:30 in the evening that they returned to the hotel.
Using the hotel phone, Xu Liming called his old comrade Huang Xiangui.
On the phone, Xu Liming also told his old comrade Huang Xiangui about the relevant situation. When the old comrade heard it, a worried look appeared on his face.
It turned out that their Public Security Bureau was more or less aware that some illegal coal mines were suspected of illegally detaining migrant workers, but at present, there were not enough police forces, and secondly, the intelligence system of the illegal coal mine owners was very developed. Often, before they reached their destination, those who needed to be transferred had been transferred by them, so this matter was delayed again and again. He also suspected that there was an insider who leaked the information, but he had no evidence, so the matter had to be left unresolved.
"Old Huang, there is a reporter from Southern Journal working undercover in your place right now. If he leaks this information before you, have you ever thought that your Public Security Bureau will be in a passive position?" Xu Limin said loudly into the microphone.
These words seemed to wake up Huang Xiangui, the Public Security Bureau Chief of Heihai County, all of a sudden. He had also heard of the magazine "Southern Journal". It was just like the TV program "Focus Interview", which specialized in exposing the dark side of some places, from large government departments to small illegal vendors. Just like a popular saying to describe them nowadays, wherever there is a dark place, there may be the presence of reporters from "Southern Journal".
"Then what should I do?" Huang Xiangui was a little confused.
"You should pick out trustworthy police officers and verify it immediately."
"Okay, I understand. When will that brother arrive tomorrow?"
"I'll be there at noon."
"Okay, I'll meet him then." Huang Xiangui couldn't help wiping his sweat. After he hung up the phone, he thought about it carefully and suddenly felt that this was not a bad thing for him. Once he did this well, he might become a hero.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Limin couldn't help but smile and said, "Xiao Yuan, you should go there tomorrow. Old Huang was transferred here just this year, so he shouldn't have much contact with the local people."
Yuan Fangguo nodded and said that he would go there early tomorrow morning.
The two were originally planning to have a cup of tea and continue chatting, but unexpectedly Xu Liming's pager rang. He picked up the pager and looked at it, and immediately couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Xiao Yuan, I can't accompany you tonight. I have to go back to work."
"Is there an emergency?" Yuan Fangguo asked quickly.
Xu Limin nodded, "Yes."
"Let me take you there."
"Okay, it's just right for me to ride in the car you bought. By the way, how did you get your driver's license?" Xu Liming asked.
Yuan Fangguo also told him everything. After hearing that the driver's license was purchased from the army and then exchanged at a local place, Xu Liming couldn't help laughing again.
"You're a smart kid, I just wanted to see how good your driving skills are."
"Uncle Xu, last year I drove back and forth from Chengdu to Guangdong Province several times. I'm quite skilled. If you can't find a job after graduating from university, how about I be your driver?"
"Wouldn't it be a waste of your talent to be my driver?" Xu Liming said.
"I consider it my honor to work under capable leadership, despite my unyielding talent."
"Haha..." Xu Liming couldn't help but burst into laughter.
After sending Xu Liming to the gate of the Municipal Party Committee, Yuan Fangguo drove back to the hotel.
He called his girlfriend for a while in the hotel, and only stopped talking after he heard her tell him anxiously that her mother was knocking on the door.
Perhaps it was because he was tired from the long drive, or perhaps it was because he drank some beer and was more easily sleepy, but soon after he finished talking to his girlfriend, Yuan Fangguo fell asleep.
He slept until the morning when the hotel room phone rang. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and picked up the phone beside him.
It was Xu Liming's voice. It turned out that Xu Liming asked him to have breakfast together.
Yuan Fangguo was very surprised as to how Xu Liming knew the room's phone number.
However, although it was strange, he did not ask until he was having breakfast, when Xu Liming told him that he had transferred the call through the hotel switchboard.
After leaving last night, Xu Liming worked overtime in the office all night. When he had breakfast with Yuan Fangguo in the morning, his eyes were red from staying up late. Seeing Xu Liming, who was in his forties and still working overtime, Yuan Fangguo suddenly felt that being a leader was not easy.
While having breakfast, Xu Limin also told him about the road conditions to Heihai County, reminding him that the mountains there are high and the roads are steep, making it more difficult to walk, and he must pay attention to safety.
After thanking Xu Liming, Yuan Fangguo quickly paid for breakfast and accompanied Xu Liming into the Municipal Party Committee compound before driving away.
It was more than a hundred kilometers from Ya City to Heihai County, but the road conditions there were even more dangerous. He had originally planned to arrive at around 11:00 a.m., but unexpectedly there was a traffic jam on the way, and it was not until around 1:00 p.m. that he finally drove into Heihai County.
The county seat of Heihai County is a small county surrounded by mountains. The county seat is composed of a crossroads. It is a place where Han and ethnic minorities live together. Therefore, when Yuan Fangguo was driving on the narrow streets of the county seat, he saw many ethnic minorities wearing distinctive ethnic costumes along the way.
He did not go into the Public Security Bureau, but called Huang Xiangui's office.
Huang Xiangui had been waiting for the phone to ring. Before Yuan Fangguo called him, he had answered several calls. Now that he received the call again, he no longer had so much anticipation in his heart.
"Hello."
"Hello."
"Excuse me, is this Uncle Huang? I was introduced by Uncle Xu. My name is Yuan Fangguo."
When Huang Xiangui heard the name of the visitor, he immediately became excited.
"Where are you now?"
