Chapter 572 Dealing with the Street Office Staff
Although there were not many surprises, Li Lu felt more at ease when she heard that her elder brother stood by her side without hesitation.
The next morning, just as the working hours arrived, the street office where Li Zhongye's home was located welcomed the deputy mayor's secretary Lu Weijia who personally led people to investigate the place.
At first, no one realized how high-ranking the official was. After all, no one knew him and had no chance to meet him before. Moreover, when the person in charge here, Deng Shulin, saw that there were his relatives among the accompanying personnel, he felt much more relaxed.
Apart from some cover-up behavior yesterday, there have been no other problems with his subordinates recently. In other words, any problems have been resolved, so he spoke with full energy.
It was as if a leader was coming to inspect and we warmly welcomed him.
This action suddenly gave his brother-in-law Tan Baotian in the crowd a bad feeling.
My second brother-in-law is not a good person. Usually, no one cares about him. He has secretly helped many people, from directors to errand boys, to build many relationships in the Go Committee countless times.
A lot of money and things were given away, and the gains were undoubtedly more substantial.
In order to maintain the long-term income stream, we have helped to deal with problems countless times in a way that benefits both parties.
What's worse, the smartest thing Deng Shulin has done in recent years is that those people or individuals who were attacked are absolutely 100% fine. They are the kind of people who can either settle the matter with money or not get any money at all and have to suffer in silence.
No matter if they are heard or suspected to have some ability, even if there is no solid evidence, they have never stretched their hands out in the spirit of "better safe than sorry". With such meticulousness, the higher-ups should not have noticed it.
But Secretary Lu did not make any notification early in the morning. He just waited in the car at the door until more and more people from the Ge Committee came to work.
I was so stubborn that I wanted to go up and ask the person what he was doing, but when I saw the license plate number, I lowered my head and went into the house.
There are a few "relatives" who are hanging around here and have seen the visitor before. They quietly told their colleagues about the other person's identity.
Thinking that they were inside the house and Secretary Lu was outside, he quickly reacted and prepared to step forward to make his presence felt. He went out and politely knocked on the car window to invite him to come in and wait, but in the end, he was rejected without exception.
Such an obvious signal quickly made everyone realize that it conveyed a message that either someone among them had committed a crime, or there was something wrong with the area under their jurisdiction.
He immediately cleverly went out through the back door and ran to the intersection to wait for the director.
Zhou Muyun was in a good mood early in the morning because he heard his wife say some good news before leaving home. But when he suddenly saw the person at the intersection, his mood immediately sank to the bottom.
If something didn't happen in the office, his subordinates wouldn't be waiting here in a hurry.
I walked closer and listened carefully to the other party's explanation of the current situation, and just prayed silently that I would not be implicated.
I looked at the time and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At least I took a few quick steps and didn't miss the work hours.
After hearing Lu Weijia's purpose, everyone in the room, who knew the inside story, glanced secretly in the direction of Tan Baotian without leaving any trace.
The reason is simple: the street office of the district where the name card was pointed out is under the charge of his second brother-in-law.
At first, this guy wanted to sneak out and deliver a message in advance, but before he could reach the back door, he saw a jeep of the same model as the one at the door coming from the corner not far away.
After the car stopped, four people opened the door above and got out. Together with one person who came over from the car here, the five of them instantly guarded all the exits in front and behind the Ge Committee.
"Please forgive me, Director Zhou. This is a task that Deputy Mayor Chen assigned to me last night. I am definitely not behaving this way because I don't trust you.
But there were at least dozens of people present inside and outside the venue. If someone was so blind as to leak the news of the surprise inspection in advance, there might be more troubles to come. ”
The words were very nice, but Zhou Muyun just wanted to complain and told him not to say them next time.
He had to swallow his anger, but he kept smiling and agreed, "It's my duty, it's my duty."
Thanks to Tan Baotian's generosity in helping out over the years, he was eventually included in the group that set out there together.
As for whether I can help, I don’t have the energy to speculate too much. I’ll just leave it to fate.
On the way, Director Zhou quietly walked up to the leader in front of him while he was not paying attention.
"Baotian, could it be that your second brother-in-law has really done something out of the ordinary? The people from above came down suddenly, and judging from the situation, they should have evidence. Can you tell me for sure, will this involve us?"
"Brother Zhou, to be honest, I am also confused right now. But don't worry, thanks to your care over the years, if there is any problem, I will not let them blame us."
Tan Baotian not only said this, he also thought so.
If something goes wrong in the end, the worst that can happen is that I can persuade my second sister to break up with that man. Once they get divorced, I can ask my family to find a capable older man to marry her to. At least I can get more dowry money from all the efforts.
Hearing this, the other party reached out and patted him on the shoulder, then walked back to the front.
It is clear now that my brother-in-law has accidentally offended a powerful person.
These are all things that happened later. For now, I have to try my best to help when I have the chance. So when I arrived at the destination, I saw Deng Shulin leading people out. During the whole process, he only glanced in his direction and walked towards the director with an apologetic smile on his face.
However, his eyes were twitching so much that he didn't get any attention from the other party.
Even though only one night passed from the time Lv Weijia received the deputy mayor's call to the time he showed up at the door of the Go Committee, his subordinates found solid evidence that the person who should be investigated had committed a crime.
When he got on the bus in the morning, the driver handed him a stack of information, the contents of which really surprised him for a long time.
It is understood that no place is truly thorough, but it is somewhat unbelievable that in a small street office, none of the people who are considered to be in charge have clean hands.
If I remember correctly, this place was listed as a candidate in the selection of "Advanced Subdistrict Offices" this year.
It seems that many positions at the grassroots level need to be carefully checked.
Seeing the evidence being laid out in the open, Deng Shulin finally realized that it was no wonder that his brother-in-law had such an ugly face in the morning. Looking around at the people around him who were in similar situations as him, they all had a look of despair on their faces.
He also knew that the Ge Committee could not help him at all at the moment, and he was afraid that he would not have a good life after today.
But why did the higher-ups suddenly become so ruthless and take action against an insignificant street office?
I'm thinking carefully about whether there's anything out of the ordinary in the past two days.
He went over what he had been thinking when he saw the person coming, and confirmed once again that, apart from the fact that someone from the Li family came yesterday to handle the household registration transfer and they were asked to issue a note but were blocked for no reason, there was really no other person.
But this family actually has no connection with him. The whole family just moved here from Beijing 20 years ago. Otherwise, how could his subordinates ask the other party to do the job for 200 yuan and he would agree so readily in the end.
He randomly slapped himself on the head twice.
Yes, no problem. Can you give me 200 yuan just for a household registration? And they came with a statement of severing ties.
It’s too late to say anything now. Money can’t buy you earlier knowledge.
At the same time, the public security department received a message from someone sent by the deputy mayor's secretary. Chu Ying heard the destination and immediately took his briefcase and followed.
