Mayor Jiang received the phone call and, listening to the report, said, "Then send it over."
"But that’s the City Committee."
"What’s wrong with the City Committee? If he’s not scared, why are you scared?"
These gold bars Song Guanchao must take.
Only then could Jiang Yuan feel relieved.
Song Guanchao understood what Jiang Yuan ant.
He wanted to catch Song Guanchao by his little tail.
But, he couldn’t accept it too eagerly.
Accepting too eagerly wouldn’t fit the personality he was showing.
Sending it to the City Committee reflected both his caution and his behavior today.
Ordinary people don’t understand cigars.
How could Song Guanchao, a soldier who had just retired a few months ago, know so much?
Clearly, his private life was rich and extravagant.
This was what he deliberately showed to Jiang Yuan.
Making Jiang Yuan believe he could be corrupted by money.
On the way back, Song Guanchao lightly sighed.
After receiving a call from Fang Wei in the afternoon, he knew that Jiang Yuan had grown suspicious of him and wanted to test him.
The thod of testing was a bit too crude.
But after all, he had passed this test.
No!
Song Guanchao suddenly opened his eyes.
He felt that Jiang Yuan’s thods might involve more than just this.
Just financial corruption was too simple a thod and might not satisfy Jiang Yuan’s requirents.
He feared there would be other thods.
He glanced at the rearview mirror and didn’t spot any suspicious vehicles.
But he didn’t let down his guard.
He felt that Jiang Yuan would likely have soone secretly follow him and gather information on his private life.
During this ti, he needed to keep a low profile.
...
"You should stay at ho tomorrow."
Song Guanchao, holding the sweaty Liang Jiajia, suddenly said.
Liang Jiajia looked up at him, "Why?"
Song Guanchao said, "I’ve offended Mayor Jiang."
"What did you do?"
"Rember Li Fuhai?"
"Your forr leader?"
"I reported him."
"What? So the rumors are true?"
"You heard about it too?"
"They’re all over."
Liang Jiajia said, "I thought soone was aiming at you on purpose, but it turns out it’s true."
"But I rember when Li Fuhai was reported, you were at the police station."
"Zhang Ming tipped off."
Song Guanchao recounted what had happened at the ti.
Liang Jiajia’s eyes glead, "You just drove for him for half a month, and you figured out all his residences in Lingjiang?"
"Occupational habit," Song Guanchao sighed. "Originally, I wanted to figure out the places to protect my leader, but who would have thought that bastard would try to sell out. He’s heartless, so don’t bla for being unrighteous. I couldn’t just wait to end up in prison, right?"
Liang Jiajia said, "Did Jiang Yuan guess?"
"He definitely guessed, otherwise he wouldn’t have invited to dinner tonight."
Song Guanchao said, "He might have soone follow during this ti, you should go ho for a while to avoid letting him find out about our relationship."
Liang Jiajia stared into his eyes, "You don’t want others to know about our relationship?"
Song Guanchao knew she had misunderstood, and holding her small face seriously said, "I’m afraid he will use you to threaten ."
Liang Jiajia’s eyes softened, her small nose wrinkled, and she lightly huffed, "I’m a police officer! I’m not afraid!"
"You’re not afraid, but I am!" Song Guanchao said gravely, "Be good, go ho for now."
"Then kiss ."
"Kiss on top or bottom?"
"Rogue!"
...
The next day, at 9:30 in the morning.
The man ca.
He carried a briefcase, entered the City Committee, completed the registration, and then went up to the sixth floor where he personally handed the briefcase to Song Guanchao.
After the man had left, Song Guanchao took the briefcase into his office.
"Secretary, this was brought to by soone sent by Mayor Jiang."
Song Guanchao opened the briefcase, revealing several bars of gold.
Wu Qiangwei glanced at it, her expression grave.
Mayor Jiang was being incredibly generous.
She imdiately contacted Secretary Xu from the Provincial Disciplinary Inspection Committee on the spot to report the matter.
Xu Wu said, "Have soone bring it over to the province."
After hanging up the phone, Song Guanchao said, "Let Director Wu take it over."
Wu Qiangwei asked, "Can she handle it?"
"Absolutely no problem."
"Right," Song Guanchao then brought another briefcase from outside, opened it, and inside were more gold bars.
Wu Qiangwei was sowhat shocked, "How much did Mayor Jiang send you?"
She asked seriously, "Is there more?"
"Secretary, these are fake."
Song Guanchao casually picked up one, "Gold-covered silver."
"I’ll take these gold bars to the bank and store them in the vault later."
Song Guanchao revealed his suspicion, "I suspect that Mayor Jiang might secretly be having soone track ; we need to perform convincingly, so they won’t suspect."
Wu Qiangwei noticed that he was very experienced in this regard.
She almost wondered if this guy was a soldier or a bandit?
His behavior was completely devoid of any military deanor.
Instead, it was full of banditry.
Song Guanchao zipped up the bag and asked before leaving, "Secretary, how did the talks with Minister Zhou go?"
"Give him the position of the County Party Secretary."
Song Guanchao nodded, asked no further, and left the office.
Coming out of the City Committee and heading towards the bank, Song Guanchao indeed noticed soone was following him.
He didn’t care, reached the bank, and Zhang Yue personally took care of storing the gold bars in the vault.
At noon, he had lunch with Zhang Yue outside.
Returning to the City Committee, Song Guanchao went straight to Chu Xiao’e’s office.
Chu Xiao’e instinctively lifted her wrist to check the ti, a gesture that puzzled Song Guanchao.
What did that an?
Was she planning to find so ti to get cozy?
"Ahem," Song Guanchao said, "Mayor Jiang has recently been having people follow ; from now on, let’s just talk in the office."
Chu Xiao’e imdiately understood his aning.
This was because he was worried their private relationship would be discovered by Mayor Jiang.
She felt a bit regretful but also recognized the gravity of the situation.
Such matters had to be clearly explained to her.
Ever since she started, she really craved it daily.
As work was about to end, Minister Zhou’s secretary, Zhang ilin, called to invite him to dinner.
Song Guanchao initially thought it was Minister Zhou inviting him, but later found out that Zhang ilin wanted to dine alone with him.
Strange.
He wasn’t familiar with Zhang ilin, and they had hardly had any interaction.
Why would he suddenly invite him to dinner?
In the evening, in a restaurant private room.
He dined and drank with Zhang ilin.
Zhang ilin’s deanor was much like Minister Zhou’s, both were mild and scholarly.
Even his drinking style was like a scholar rushing to the capital for exams; Song Guanchao really feared he might fall over after three drinks.
"Secretary Song, thank you for this ti!"
Zhang ilin suddenly raised his glass and said sothing that puzzled Song Guanchao.
"What do you an by that, Brother Zhang?"
"Hehe," Zhang ilin thought he was being modest and said, "Secretary Wu ntioned it was you who proposed inviting Minister Zhou."
Song Guanchao was thoughtful, "Dujiang County?"
"That’s right," Zhang ilin said, "Minister Zhou will recomnd as the next County Party Secretary of Dujiang County!"
