In name only: The land of Handong, I shall rule its fate.

Han Family Hotel.

"Team Leader Xu, this is my personal phone number. Please feel free to contact me anytime if you need any cooperation from the Provincial Party Committee or the Provincial Government."

Lin Zhiyuan handed over his business card.

"Okay, thank you for your help, Governor Lin."

Xu Changhe accepted the gift without hesitation, watching Lin Zhiyuan take the elevator down, seemingly lost in thought.

"Team Leader Xu, are you interested?"

Zhou Shitao came up, patted his old leader on the shoulder, and asked with a smile.

Did you hear that?

Xu Changhe's expression was very unnatural.

"hehe."

"Old leader, you've forgotten, my ability to get into the Discipline Inspection Commission was largely due to my ears."

Zhou Shitao pointed to a pair of large ears and suggested:

"In my opinion, Governor Lin's suggestion is quite good. Handong is a good place, and Governor Lin has his own advantages."

"Too talkative!"

Xu Changhe scolded him, displeased, "Aren't there enough cases in Handong for you to handle? Or, I'll give you more responsibilities."

"No, team leader, I was wrong."

Zhou Shitao begged for mercy, and then he vanished in a flash.

"Oh!"

Xu Changhe scoffed, but his gaze remained fixed on the elevator. "Has the little wolf cub evolved into a little fox?"

He naturally looked down on the petty gains from before, but when it came to his son's future development, he had to consider it.

His development in Hanjiang came to an abrupt halt, leaving him no time to plan for his son's future, which meant that Xu Ruian's progress was not fast compared to his peers.

Do you still hate what happened back then?

Some, but not that much.

Faced with Lin Zhiyuan's growing power and influence, he was the one who first disrupted the balance between the two sides, and he was also the one who lost. He was simply accepting his defeat.

but…

Contrary to the outside perception that Lin Zhiyuan's transfer was due to the province's development momentum, what truly brought him down was the massive corruption case that implicated the Minister of Organization and the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission.

Put it on and take it off!

The two corrupt officials conspired together to deceive their superiors and subordinates, and even engaged in the sale of official positions.

It's absolutely outrageous.

Once the matter comes to light, it won't matter whether Xu Changhe was involved or not, because as the provincial party secretary who holds the power over personnel, he will be held responsible.

however.

During the interview, Lin Zhiyuan presented evidence and his views on him in a relatively fair and objective manner. He also suggested that the matter was of a serious nature and should not be made public. He then transferred Lin Zhiyuan from his position as provincial party secretary on the grounds of discord between the two.

finally.

After careful consideration, the above-mentioned authorities adopted Lin Zhiyuan's suggestion.

This time gap gave him the opportunity to prove his innocence, which allowed him to be transferred to the Discipline Inspection Commission later.

Few people knew about what happened back then, including him, who only learned about it by chance many years later.

Xu Changhe harbored resentment for several years.

The day he learned the truth, he almost went crazy. The person he hated was actually the benefactor who had protected him with his own reputation.

The ways of Heaven are unpredictable!

Since then, he has completely faded out of the circle until recently when he received a call from General Manager Wang, who coordinated for him, a retired veteran, to come to Handong to serve as the head of the inspection team.

Xu Changhe then realized that the message had been handed to him by President Wang.

"Ha, you've become much more tactful than you were back then."

Xu Changhe chuckled.

Back then, Lin Zhiyuan didn't understand all these intricacies; all he cared about was development.

When faced with opponents, you can object, but you must either point out my shortcomings or propose a better solution than mine. Otherwise, all those blocking your way are roadblocks that need to be cleared away.

For example, Governor Dong Guanghui, and the full-time deputy secretary who was criticized and resigned.

Like a bloodthirsty wolf.

Become food or become part of the wolf pack, the choice is yours.

The claim of kicking five people at once is a rumor, but kicking four people at once is a fact.

If he had acted as smoothly back then as he does now, and had made such outstanding achievements in the two provinces, he probably would have made progress by the time he was transferred from Hanjiang two years ago.

"Hey, Mr. Wang said you've hidden a big bomb. I don't know if my old body can handle it."

"Fine!"

"Let the old man see just how far you can go."

Xu Changhe smiled and closed the door. His already upright posture became even more sturdy, like a sword about to pierce the sky of Handong.

With the full cooperation of the Handong Provincial Party Committee, the preliminary investigation by the inspection team went very smoothly.

They directly used Zhongfu Group as a typical example, colluding with Qi Ben'an from the inside, and uncovered everything in just three days.

Based on the clues he had, Qi Ben'an detained and investigated Shi Hongxing, the general manager of Jingzhou Zhongfu, in accordance with the law. During a raid on her office safe, he found 178 notebooks that recorded Lin Manjiang's various instructions, approvals, and conversations with her over the past ten years. After comparing them one by one with the group's internal process files, they were all correct, including the purchase of a mine for 47 billion yuan, the transaction fee of 10 billion yuan in black gold, the instruction to set up a slush fund, the illegal promotion, and the transfer of benefits.

Faced with the general trend.

Pi Dan, chairman of Jingzhou Energy, voluntarily confessed to accepting bribes and also revealed that Lin Manjiang was suffering from late-stage bone cancer and had forged medical examination reports.

The inspection team directed the Provincial Public Security Department to formally arrest Qian Changrong in accordance with the law and obtain a recording of a 10 billion yuan transaction.

With both witnesses and physical evidence, the evidence completely and irrefutably convicts Lin Manjiang of his crimes.

It started with Qi Ben'an's parachute landing.

With the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) overseeing the overall situation and issuing instructions, and the disciplinary inspection commission at the headquarters of China Fortune Land Development Co., Ltd. exerting its efforts, combined with the powerful authority of the inspection team, Lin Manjiang failed to even create some minor troubles for Qi Ben'an and was hastily apprehended.

One of the involved personnel was transferred to the court for trial.

Lin Manjiang was convicted of embezzlement, bribery, and abuse of power involving state-owned assets, and was sentenced to life imprisonment and confiscation of all his personal property.

The day after the verdict was handed down, Lin Manjiang suffered a bone cancer attack and died in prison.

Shi Hongxing was convicted of abusing her power over state-owned assets and accepting bribes, and was sentenced to ten years in prison.

Pi Dan was convicted of bribery and dereliction of duty and sentenced to three years in prison.

Jin Zhiyuan, Lu Jianshe, Li Gongquan, Fu Changming, and Qian Changrong were all submitted for review…

"Governor Lin, the investigation into Zhongfu Group is now complete, but both the group's employees and tens of thousands of miners need to eat. The higher-ups have asked me to ask for your thoughts."

Xu Changhe looked at Lin Zhiyuan across from him.

"Team Leader Xu, are you referring to a person or a matter?"

Lin Zhiyuan didn't answer but asked a question instead.

"people!"

Xu Changhe stated bluntly, "Does Jingzhou Zhongfu have anyone who can take over and lead the future changes?"

The nature of Zhongfu is special, and it is absolutely impossible for local governments to get involved.

"Niu Junjie, not bad."

Lin Zhiyuan thought for a moment and said, "He has principles and is tactful. He is suitable to be the general manager of Jingzhou Zhongfu. With Qi Ben'an, who has the same strong principles, in charge, he is just right for the current Jingzhou Zhongfu and can quickly transition through the unstable period."

Xu Changhe seemed lost in thought, sometimes frowning, sometimes nodding.

"Although Qi Ben'an is a parachuted-in cadre, he ultimately came from Jingzhou Zhongfu, and Niu Junjie and Shi Hongxing are husband and wife. Won't this have a negative impact? Could it create a new interest group?"

Xu Changhe agreed in his heart, but he still had to ask outwardly.

"Qi Ben'an is too upright and has offended a large number of local officials in Jingzhou Zhongfu. What kind of interest group could he possibly form?"

"As for Niu Junjie, Shi Hongxing cannot uphold her bottom line. The two have no children and have been separated for a long time. They can go through divorce proceedings to prevent our organization's good cadres from being influenced by bad elements for a long time."

Lin Zhiyuan smiled. "Or does Team Leader Xu think Qi Ben'an is more suitable for disciplinary inspection work? Does Jingzhou Zhongfu need someone parachuted in from elsewhere?"

"That's not what I meant."

"I will report Governor Lin's suggestion to the higher authorities."

Xu Changhe's lips twitched. The standard organizational questioning sounded like the Xu family was recruiting members.

Although it was indeed another branch of the Xu family that orchestrated Qi Ben'an's sudden appointment and the thorough investigation of Zhongfu Group, it cannot be revealed.

Otherwise, why would it be him coming to Handong?

Those above, standing in the atmosphere, can see everything clearly.
