Chapter 2024 Li Youwei came to Songbei
After Qiao Liang and Cai Minghai called, Fu Minghai also sent dinner in, and Qiao Liang continued to work after finishing the meal.
At about eight o'clock, Qiao Liang packed up the things on his desk and was about to leave when his cell phone rang. Seeing that it was called by his boss Li Youwei, Qiao Liang immediately picked it up.
"Boss, what's the matter?" Qiao Liang asked with a smile.
"Liangzi, I'm at the Songbei Hotel. Are you free now? Come and have a chat." Li Youwei said.
"Boss, are you here in Songbei? I'll go there now." Qiao Liang immediately said happily when he heard that Li Youwei came to Songbei.
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Liang immediately took a bus to the Songbei Hotel.
Li Youwei was waiting for Qiao Liang in the tea room on the second floor of the hotel. When Qiao Liang came in, Li Youwei stood up and looked at Qiao Liang, then smiled and said, "I look good and I look very well restored."
When Qiao Liang was hospitalized a few days ago, Li Youwei went to see Qiao Liang several times and was very concerned about Qiao Liang's injuries.
Today, Li Youwei came to Songbei to inspect the Songbei Ancient City project invested by Zhengtai Group. Originally, Li Youwei wanted to ask Miao Peilong and Qiao Liang to have dinner together in the evening. He called Miao Peilong first and told Miao Peilong that he would have dinner with Qiao Liang in the evening. As a result, Miao Peilong said that Qiao Liang would not come if he participated. When Li Youwei heard Miao Peilong's attitude, he did not call Qiao Liang again.
Li Youwei's idea was to try to untie the knot between Qiao Liang and Miao Peilong. Since Miao Peilong insisted on not having dinner with Qiao Liang, Li Youwei simply chatted with Miao Peilong first and saw what kind of conflict Miao Peilong had with Qiao Liang now. Only by figuring it out first can we do our job and resolve the conflict between them.
But Li Youwei obviously thought things too simple, and he was destined to return disappointed tonight. From the conversation with Miao Peilong, Li Youwei could feel that Miao Peilong's attitude towards Qiao Liang could be said to be hated to the core. Li Youwei wanted to ask why, but Miao Peilong didn't say anything, but just kept drinking and making things happen to Li Youwei.
Qiao Liang didn't know that Li Youwei invited Miao Peilong to dinner in the evening and said, "Boss, why don't you call me when you come to Songbei. Let's have dinner together tonight."
"Miao Peilong and I had a dinner that just ended." Li Youwei shook his head and smiled, waved to Qiao Liang, "Liangzi, sit down, let's sit down and chat."
Qiao Liang sat down when he heard this and looked up at Li Youwei. He didn't expect that Li Youwei would have had dinner with Miao Peilong tonight.
Li Youwei continued to explain, "I came here to inspect the Songbei Ancient City project invested by the group. The project is about to be completed. I came here today to see it. I thought about it and asked you to have dinner with Miao Peilong in the evening to see if you can resolve your conflicts. As a result, Miao Peilong said that he would not come if you come. I thought about it for a while, but didn't call you and planned to chat with Miao Peilong first."
When Qiao Liang heard this, he couldn't help but say, "Boss, then what did you talk about with Secretary Miao?"
"Oh, it seems that I'm a little wishful thinking. I don't have the ability to resolve the conflict between you two." Li Youwei smiled helplessly.
Qiao Liang was not surprised at all when he heard this, and smiled slightly, "If the conflict between Secretary Miao could be resolved, we would not have reached this point today."
"What's going on with you two now?" Li Youwei sighed. "Peilong and I have known each other for many years. We have always had a good relationship. In my impression, he is a person who values friendship and righteousness, and is worthy of making friends, but now he has become a little unfamiliar with me, especially the relationship between you, which makes me feel uncomfortable. I'm stuck between you, sometimes it's really bad."
"Boss, then we don't care about that much, we will work with each other." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"It can only be like that." Li Youwei smiled, feeling a little powerless. His relationship with Miao Peilong is really good, especially when Miao Peilong goes to the city, he basically goes to see him for dinner. So he actually tried to resolve the conflict between Miao Peilong and Qiao Liang before, but he was interrupted by Miao Peilong every time. Li Youwei originally thought Miao Peilong just didn't want to talk about it, but judging from today's situation, the conflict between Miao Peilong and Qiao Liang was deeper than he thought.
"Liangzi, do you think Peilong has really changed now?" Li Youwei asked.
"It's changed. I don't think he is the same brother Miao as before." Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows.
"Maybe." Li Youwei frowned slightly, "Maybe power will really change people. Peilong was not like this in the past."
Li Youwei did feel some changes in Miao Peilong. In the past, Miao Peilong talked about some ideals and ambitions and wanted to do some practical things, but now Miao Peilong has no ideals and ambitions in his mouth, but instead began to talk about hedonism. Li Youwei has heard Miao Peilong mention more than once, "As an official reaches his level, he has devoted most of his life to the people, and he should also think about himself." Similar words, Miao Peilong has said several times, and Li Youwei has criticized Miao Peilong for this, asking him not to have that kind of thought, but Miao Peilong obviously doesn't care about it and does not listen to his words.
"Boss, the root of the conflict between Secretary Miao and I now lies in our different positions, so our conflict cannot be resolved." Qiao Liang said.
"Hey, how could the relationship between you two become like this?" Li Youwei sighed again, "Especially Peilong, I am a little worried about him, worried that he will embark on a path of no return in the future."
"Boss, everyone has their own choices, and they must bear the consequences for their choices. Some things are not something we can decide." Qiao Liang said lightly.
"Well, you're right." Li Youwei nodded. Li Youwei was powerless about Miao Peilong's affairs. After all, the other party was an adult. Li Youwei could not decide for the other party. He could only do his best to persuade Miao Peilong to pay more attention to some discipline issues, but whether Miao Peilong could listen was another matter.
Based on Li Youwei's understanding of Miao Peilong, I'm afraid Miao Peilong has stepped on some discipline red lines now. Li Youwei only hopes that Miao Peilong will not have any problems, otherwise it would be a pity. Miao Peilong was a person with ideals and ambitions when he was young. Now he has taken the position of top leaders and has great power, so why has it become like this?
The two talked about Miao Peilong, but Qiao Liang didn't want to say anything more, and instead said, "Boss, the opening ceremony of your Songbei Ancient City project will be invited to you at that time. I'll go and stand for you."
"That's sure. You are the county magistrate. Who will you invite if you don't invite? If you don't come, I will drag you there." Li Youwei said with a smile.
"That's good, I will definitely go there at that time." Qiao Liang laughed, "This is a great thing. Once the Songbei Ancient City project starts to operate, it will be of great significance to driving Songbei's tourism industry."
"Well, our group now also operates a tourism company. At that time, I will ask the tourism company to increase the tourism routes of Songbei Ancient City and tilt more resources here, hoping to drive some foreign tourists to come." Li Youwei said.
"That would be great. At that time, it will not only create economic benefits for our county, but also drive employment." Qiao Liang said happily, "Boss, if your group has other investment projects, it will also give priority to our Songbei."
"Don't worry, I will definitely give priority to Songbei. The fertilizer will not flow to outsiders' fields." Li Youwei smiled and said, "By the way, I heard that you had a bet with Miao Peilong before, to see who can invest more in Songbei within half a year?"
"There is such a bet, but I probably won't count this bet anymore. Secretary Miao had done the International Auto City project before, but it turned into a mess. He was cheated of a lot of funds by a fraud gang, which made him lose face. I guess he doesn't want to mention a bet now." Qiao Liang smiled.
"Peilong was a little anxious, and wanted to make political achievements. He was a little eager for quick success and instant benefits, so he got into the trap of the fraud gang." Li Youwei shook his head and said. He had heard of this. It is said that Miao Peilong had also visited the so-called "headquarters" abroad and thought that the project was stable and there was no problem. He didn't know that these were designed by the fraud gang.
Speaking of this, Qiao Liang was obviously a little annoyed because the subsequent impact of this matter has not been completely eliminated. The construction companies that have been cheated of deposits will come to ask about deposits from time to time, hoping that the county can give a reply, but what can the county give? The case has not been solved, and the police are still pursuing the fraud gang and not recovering all the money. It is impossible for the county to fill the hole with finance.
Seeing that Qiao Liang's face was not very good, Li Youwei said, "Okay, don't talk about him anymore, so as not to affect your mood. Tell me about you, Liangzi, is there any progress in the case of your shooting?"
"It shouldn't be there yet. I haven't heard any news from the police." Qiao Liang shook his head and said. Lu Qian has now officially assumed the position of executive deputy director of the municipal bureau. Qiao Liang has also heard Lu Qian mention the case. Now the case is supervised by Lu Qian himself. Qiao Liang believes that Lu Qian will do his best to solve the case.
"Holding a murderer should be done by your enemy. Have you thought about it carefully, who would do such a thing?" Li Youwei asked again.
Qiao Liang heard this question and smiled bitterly, "Boss, several people have asked me about this question, and even the Municipal Bureau has come to me to take a record of it. Let me think about it carefully to see if I can provide any clues, but I can't figure out who will do it. If I talk about work, I have had conflicts with many people. Others can't kill me because of work conflicts, right? But if it's a personal grudge, I have thought about it carefully, and I haven't had any personal grudges with anyone recently."
"You have no clue at all, so it seems that you can only wait for the police to solve the case." Li Youwei smiled, thought for a while, and solemnly reminded Qiao Liang, "Liangzi, you should pay more attention in the future and offend people less, otherwise if something similar happens again, you may not have such good luck."
