Chapter 139 [Foundation]

Chapter 139 [Foundation Laying]

As soon as he finished speaking, Zeng Qicheng saw the car window in the distance suddenly cracked, with a clear bullet hole printed above it. A bullet shot into the car and shot directly through his brother's head. Zeng Qizhi's head fell on the car window, and blood spurted out from the top of his head like a spring, flowing down the glass on the side window, soon dyeing the glass red.

Zeng Qicheng burst out with a heart-wrenching wail. A bullet penetrated the glass of the public telephone booth and hit his chest. Zeng Qicheng grabbed the receiver and shouted with all his strength: "Beast..."

"I've told you that no one can betray me..."

When the police officers from the Development Zone Branch arrived at the square, the Zeng brothers had already died on the spot. They found the Buddha's relics in the trunk of the car. Putting aside the suspicion of the murder itself, the loss of the Buddha's relics made the entire Jiangcheng police community and even the entire Jiangcheng cheer, and the clouds shrouded above Jiangcheng finally dissipated.

Before Tian Qinglong learned that the Buddha's relics were found, he received an anonymous call, secretly reporting to him that the Buddha's relics would appear in the square of the development zone. Andhung carefully calculated every step, and he would not leave any flaws for the police to track it. The mobile phone number of the Zeng brothers contacted him was a black household, and he could not find him. From the beginning, Andhung had someone stealing the Buddha's relics and did not take it for himself. He wanted to use the Buddha's relics to attack his opponents and let the Benin Consortium retreat. After losing the Buddha's relics, the Jiang City Government gave him more preferential conditions. Now his purpose has been achieved, and it is time to return the Buddha's relics. This

Although the Buddha's relics are precious, they are like hot potatoes. It will sooner or later be a problem in their hands. However, And Heng did not expect that the Zeng brothers, who have always been regarded as loyal to him, would have the intention to extort themselves when they see money. And Heng would never be merciless about his subordinates who betrayed his. They could be betray him once or for the second time. Such people could no longer be used by him, and the ending could only be death. He was not worried that the Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau would suspect him. Everything in the world now must pay attention to evidence. He is a VIP guest in Jiangcheng and an elite social person. How could such a person be a criminal?

Zhang Yang also learned at the first time that the Buddha's relics were retrieved by the police. Jiang Liang was in the Development Zone Branch. He found the Buddha's relics by himself. This incident meant a great achievement for him, so it is very likely to be promoted to a higher level in his career.

After congratulating Jiang Liang, Zhang Yang called Li Changyu. Li Changyu already knew about this. He did not show much surprise. He said in a low voice as usual: "You Aunt Su miss you. Come here to have dinner tonight and have a drink with me!"

Li Changyu invited Zhang Yang to drink not to drown his sorrows. Too many political ups and downs have made Li Changyu become more and more mature. This small setback will not make him depressed. He understands Zhang Yang's temperament and is afraid that this setback will make this kid's emotions out of control. It is time to remind him.

Zhang Yang was originally thinking of comforting Li Changyu, but when he arrived at his house and saw Li Changyu's optimistic mood, he realized that he did not take this setback at all. This is political quality. Compared with Li Changyu, he still has a long way to go.

Old Lady Su specially stewed a local chicken for him. Ge Chunli was very good at pleaseing the old lady. The sister-in-law and chatted in the kitchen while busy, making laughter and laughter from time to time. After the cold dishes were served, they all sat down at the dining table. Zhang Yang picked up the Maotai and filled them with it, and said happily: "I haven't eaten the local chicken made by Aunt Su for a long time. Today I have to open my stomach and have a big meal!"

Old Mrs. Su smiled and picked up a chicken leg and put it in his bowl: "If you like it, eat more and come to eat often. Anyway, I have nothing to do when I am idle at home!"

Ge Chunli smiled gently and said, "My sister-in-law's rice is so delicious, I have gained a lot of weight!"

Old Mrs. Su smiled and said, "It's better to be fat. If you keep your body well, you will have another baby!" The old lady's unrestrained words made Li Changyu and Ge Chunli blush.

Zhang Yang looked at Li Changyu with a smile, thinking that since Li Changyu divorced, his life has become more and more prosperous. It seems that their lives are still harmonious. Thinking about Li Changyu's happy life is still thanks to him. If he hadn't accidentally encountered Li Changyu who was playing with a car on the bank of Chunshui River, Comrade Li would have paid his love debts to the King of Hell.

Li Changyu laughed and said, "I am in my forties. If I have children, I will not only violate national policies, but also take them out in the future. People think I am taking care of my grandson!" Everyone laughed when they said this.

Old Mrs. Su just said casually. She remembered Li Changyu's two sons and sighed: "What are Xiaojun and Xiaomin busy with recently? I didn't see them coming to see me!"

Li Changyu frowned and said, "Xiaomin is in school. Xiaojun recently opened a hotel with him. The business is not very good. He called me two days ago and asked me to introduce him to some business. None of these two children can save me worry!" His two sons did not inherit too many genes from him, and they were more like their mother in all aspects.

The speaker was unintentional and the listener was intentional, and said Zhangyang: "Where is the hotel? Let me leave an address afterwards. I will bring him some food to you in the future!"

Li Changyu nodded, told Zhang Yang the name and address of the hotel, and then the topic returned to the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area. The Buddha's relics were recovered by the police. After expert identification, it was confirmed that the Buddha's relics were the one stolen in the museum, and the prospects for Jiangcheng's tourism investment have also become better again. However, due to this storm, Li Changyu's scenery has been stolen by the acting mayor Zuo Aidong, and his political achievements have become dim. The most troublesome thing is that the city has signed a contract with Andheng to develop the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area. The one who signed the contract on behalf of Jiangcheng was acting mayor Zuo Aidong, not him, the deputy mayor in charge of tourism. At least for now, Zuo Aidong has completely taken the initiative.

Zhang Yang said angrily: "An Deheng took advantage of the situation and took over the development of Nanlin Temple Scenic Area and took the land of the textile factory for free. He also approved a large area of ​​land in the development zone. I really don't know what the city is thinking. Why are he taking care of him like this? Isn't he just a few stinky money?"

Li Changyu smiled and said, "Zhang Yang, the city wants to set a model, and use Andheng's affairs to enhance the determination of investors from all parties to invest in Jiangcheng! The starting point is for Jiangcheng, which should be affirmed."

"I think this Andheng is not a good thing. You said that this Buddha's relics was not stolen by him, so he used this matter to squeeze out other competitors and let the city give him the best conditions! Otherwise, why did he just signed a contract and the Buddha's relics appeared again?"

Li Changyu shook his head and said, "An Deheng's history has always been very innocent. He graduated from Cambridge, England and has no criminal record. It's Zhang Yang. In the future, you must not say such words randomly, so that others can hear it badly." He paused and said, "The city decided that the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area will be the director-in-chief of the Garden and Cultural Relics Bureau. He is an old comrade and needs richer work experience."

Zhang Yang drank a glass of wine. In the past, Li Changyu emphasized that he would be responsible for the on-site command work at the preparatory group meeting, but now it has suddenly changed to Qiu Changzai. This matter is definitely not something Li Changyu would rather have. It seems that Li Changyu has also been under great pressure in the city. The theft of Buddha's relics has made Zuo Ai and Andeheng, but it affected Li Changyu and him. Zhang Yang did not show any dissatisfaction. It may take a certain amount of time to turn the situation around. Compared to when he just arrived in the 1990s, Zhang Daguanren was already a little more patient.

Li Changyu said: "Next week, the foundation laying of the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area project will be officially laid. Secretary Hong of the Municipal Party Committee will personally preside over the foundation laying ceremony. You can prepare it. Be sure to make this ceremony lively and peaceful, and leave a deep impression on people. By the way, you can't waste it!" Li Changyu actually has a list of the foundation laying ceremony that day. Not only will Hong Weiji go, but acting mayor Zuo Ai will also go. His name is behind them. One wrong step is wrong. The Nanlin Temple Scenic Area he worked hard to run has become a stage for others to perform.

As the deputy mayor in charge of tourism, Li Changyu will be mainly responsible for the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area in the future. However, political achievements are difficult to count on him, at least not all of them. It was Zuo Yuan Dynasty who brought An Jia's investment. The first thing to write down the name of the person in the credit book of the scenic area construction was Li Changyu who read the contract. The conditions given to Andhon in the city were extremely generous, so generous that it was a bit too much. However, Zuo Yuan Dynasty easily explained this matter with a sentence.

When leaving Li Changyu's home, Zhang Yang met the acting mayor Zuo Yuanchao on the small road at the door. He hesitated for a moment, and smiled and greeted him: "Hello Mayor Zuo!"

Zuo Yuanchao was quite kind to Zhang Yang, and nodded with a smile and said, "Xiao Zhang! Come to Deputy Mayor Li's house for dinner!" He and Zhang Yang had never dealt with him directly, but he had heard of Zhang Yang and the Gu family. He knew that this young man had a certain background, otherwise he would never have taken care of a section-level cadre as a person.

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "I just had supper at Deputy Mayor Li's house and was about to go back!"

Zuo Yuanchao nodded: "Do it well, young people have opportunities!"

After Zuo Ai Korea walked away, Zhang Yang got into his car. Because of Zuo Xiaoqing, he had no good feelings for the Zuo family. This time he originally expected to make some dazzling political achievements in the Nanlin Temple scenic area. It was about to succeed, but the credit was snatched away by Zuo Ai Korea and Andheng. He was even more disgusted with Zuo Ai Korea, but this disgust could only be hidden in his heart. With his current identity and status, he was not qualified to become a rival to Zuo Ai Korea.

He drove away from the municipal party committee’s family compound. He just turned the corner and asked the traffic police to stop him. Zhang Yang pushed the door and got out of the car. Then he found that there were many cars parked on the side of the road. Two policemen walked towards him majestic. They smelled the alcohol on Zhang Yang from a distance. One of them sternly said: "Drunk driving! Take out your driver’s license and driving license!"

Another policeman held an alcohol detector and wanted Zhang Yang to blow.

Official Zhang has always had a huge number of people, and it was not the first time to drive while drunk. However, it was the first time he encountered a surprise inspection. He smiled and said, "I am from the Tourism Bureau, so I took a sip. Don't be so serious. Comrade Police, can't I make corrections next time?"

"What's so great about the Tourism Bureau? Even the National Security Bureau has to abide by traffic regulations!" Two policemen looked impartial in law enforcement and official business. Seeing Zhang Yang refusing to undergo examination, one policeman was angry: "If you don't cooperate with our work, I will take you to get a blood test!"

Zhang Yang thought to himself that I was really from the National Security Bureau, and he didn't want to have a head-on conflict with these traffic police. After all, it was his own wrong to drive while drunk. He took out his cell phone and thought about whom to call him. If Tian Qinglong was troubled, he would definitely make a big deal of this. After thinking about it, he still called Jiang Liang. However, Jiang Liang had just been transferred to Jiang Cheng and was not familiar with these policemen. However, Jiang Liang still gritted the bullet and told the others that the other party did not sell this favor to him, so he rejected Jiang Liang on the spot. Jiang Liang could only let Zhang Yang wait patiently, and he was busy looking for relationships.

Zhang Yang remembered Qin Bai again. Didn’t this guy work as a traffic policeman in the past? After Qin Bai received the call, he rushed over immediately. He happened to have dinner with his friends nearby tonight. In just five minutes, the two policemen on duty were both Qin Bai’s colleagues. When Qin Bai came, the matter was solved immediately. Although Qin Bai was serious and thought that Zhang Yang was driving under the influence of drunkenness, he had already regarded Zhang Yang as his future brother-in-law in his heart. Those who should help must still help.

After such a struggle, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening when Zhang Yang returned home. This guy was in a bad mood. He made a cup of strong tea and sat on the sofa while drinking while thinking about how to reverse the predicament in front of him. It seemed that he needed to contact Mr. An. Since the family changes, An Zhiyuan handed over all the company's affairs to Andeheng. Is the old man really planning to retire? Let this Mr. Andeheng do whatever he wants?

Zhang Yang called Gu Jiatong. Recently, he was busy with the Nanlin Temple scenic area. Gu Jiatong was busy with the land of Dongjiang Textile Department Store, so he had less contact. Gu Jiatong had already gone to bed when she answered the phone, and her voice was tired, but this lazy smell was a different kind of sexy in Zhang Yang's ears.

Gu Jiatong also heard about the discovery of Buddha's relics in Jiangcheng. She knew that Zhang Yang was the discoverer of the underground palace and curiously asked about the scene of the underground palace at that time. Zhang Yang's vivid description made her laugh. Gu Jiatong learned that Andeheng finally received the approval of the leaders of the Jiangcheng Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government and invested in the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area. She couldn't help but be surprised: "An Deheng is a very powerful person, and she has made great moves recently! Investing in the development of Qingtai Mountain and Nanlin Temple, it requires a lot of funds. The An family is really rich!"

Zhang Yang said: "There are many rich people who are unkind. Investing in and developing Qingtaishan is Mr. An's idea. And Heng is just an executor. As for the development of Nanlin Temple, he took the opportunity to make money from the national crisis and gained a lot of benefits and preferential policies in Jiangcheng. He used the land in the textile factory for free and built a large area of ​​land in the development zone. This investment is sure to make a profit."

Gu Jiatong smiled and said, "I regretted it after hearing what you said. Recently, I have devoted my energy to the land of Dongjiang Textile Department Store, and even missed such a good investment opportunity."

Zhang Yang said: "It's not too late to come here to invest now!"

"I don't have so much energy. By the way, Ming Jian is going to your place these two days and wants to visit the Buddha's relics! Please help arrange it."

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "He has such a close relationship with Mayor Zuo, so I don't need to arrange it. I will receive it myself if you come!"

"Do you miss me?" Gu Jiatong's voice suddenly became weaker.

"Well! I miss you, I wish you could come to me now!"

Gu Jiatong said in a sweet voice: "I also want to wait until this auction is over, I will go to Jiangcheng to see you!"

"I will go to Dongjiang in two days. Fang Wennan always wants to take me over with me. Besides, I also want to go see Xiaojing!"

"She is fine. She has been going to see her recently. Zhao Jing has a very cheerful personality and should be freed from that incident!"

The two chatted with each other, and before they knew it was already one o'clock in the evening. Zhang Yang cared about Gu Jiatong's body and advised her to rest. He took a bath and then sat cross-legged on the carpet in the living room. In the development of the Nanlin Temple scenic area, he and Li Changyu obviously lost the start and had to find a way to recover the losses in the future. Unconsciously, Zhang Yang had already classified himself and Li Changyu and Qin Qing into a political interest group. He suddenly remembered the circle theory that Deputy County Magistrate Xu Zhaobin said when he was in Chunyang. Life is one circle after another. If he wants to go further in his career, he must establish his own circle and a circle centered on himself. In the past, he had a small circle in Chunyang, but now when he came to Jiangcheng, he must re-outline his own circle.

The groundbreaking ceremony of the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area was grand and enthusiastic. Zhang Yang, as the organizer of this ceremony, did his best. He mobilized the collective strength of the Market Development Department of the Tourism Bureau and worked together to make the groundbreaking ceremony prosperous.

Municipal Party Secretary Hong Weiji walked on the red carpet, his face was rosy and radiant. The clouds covering Jiangcheng finally dissipated, and the bright sunlight was projecting on him. The groundbreaking ceremony of the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area was a happy event. He hoped that everything would improve from this foundation laying. In fact, he had already felt that the political storm in the past was far away from Jiangcheng.

The bizarre death of Yang Shouyi, secretary of Chunyang County Party Committee, caused the investigation of the Zhang Wulou mining accident to stagnate. Except for Li Guozheng, no larger cadres were involved. Li Guozheng's problems have been basically identified and will soon be tried by the people.

The loss of Buddha's relics means a good omen for Jiangcheng and has far-reaching significance for Jiangcheng's future tourism development. As the highest leader of Jiangcheng, Hong Weiji will not be unable to see a series of games between Zuo Yuan and Li Changyu on the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area. In this process, he always looked at the wall and did not help each other. The final winner was acting mayor Zuo Yuan Korea.

Through this incident, Hong Weiji also saw Li Changyu's vision and ability. Li Changyu's choice of tourism as the entry point was obviously correct. In the preparation and construction of the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area, Zuo Ai Korea stole Li Changyu's credit and also stole his limelight. Hong Weiji secretly lamented that this old classmate was not lucky. He looked at the aspiring Left Ai Korea beside him, and he felt a little unhappy. Left Ai Korea's luck was too good, and it was good that made people jealous. Li Changyu's double regulations, Li Guozheng's corruption case was revealed, so Zuo Ai Korea jumped from deputy mayor to acting mayor of Jiangcheng. According to Hong Wei,

Ji's understanding, the Left Aid Korea was valued and the Peace Sea boss Gu Yunzhi had a direct relationship, and the Left Aid Korea has become more and more high-profile in the recent rectification activities of Jiangcheng. He took the investment in the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area by himself. While Hong Weiji envied his luck, he also had some ideas about him. This guy is becoming more and more likes to show off and show off too much. People will not be lucky forever. When you are proud, remember not to be so obedient. Hong Weiji looked at the aspiring Left Aid Korea beside him, and said in his heart: "You will be unlucky one day!"

Before the groundbreaking ceremony began, Zuo Ai Korea and Andeheng spoke on behalf of China and Hong Kong, followed by Puyuan, the abbot of Nanlin Temple, and finally Hong Weiji, secretary of the municipal party committee. Hong Weiji noticed a detail that Li Changyu's speech was not arranged at today's ceremony. The groundbreaking ceremony was organized by Li Changyu. It seems that Li Changyu himself deliberately chose to remain silent.

The camera focuses on Hong Weiji. Hong Weiji held a shovel and added soil to the construction site symbolically, and the construction project representing the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area officially kicked off.

During the entire process of the groundbreaking ceremony, Li Changyu acted more like an outsider. Unlike Zuo Yuanchao's ambition and excitement, Li Changyu sat in his position, smoking with a smile, and the ashtray was filled with cigarette butts. A person's mentality was very important. Seeing that the results of his first-hand business planning were taken away by others, Li Changyu was still a little uncomfortable, but he also believed that Zuo Yuanchao's compliment was only temporary. If he wanted to continue on the road of official career, he had to look at the long-term and not care about temporary gains and losses. Only by looking further can he go further.

Zhang Yang also met an old acquaintance at the groundbreaking ceremony, Gu Mingjian, the son of the provincial party secretary Gu Yunzhi. Zhang Yang had heard Gu Jiatong say that he would come here in the next two days, but he did not expect Gu Mingjian to appear at the groundbreaking ceremony, and he did not expect that he would not contact him when he came to Jiangcheng. During this period, some misunderstandings occurred between him and Gu Mingjian. The friendship between them was obviously much weaker than in the past. However, when Zhang Yang saw this de facto brother-in-law, he showed great enthusiasm and greeted him happily. He punched Gu Mingjian on the shoulder and said, "Mingjian! Why don't you notify me of Jiangcheng? It's not interesting enough!"

Gu Mingjian smiled very politely. This kind of politeness invisibly gave people a sense of distance. He whispered: "I arrived last night. Because it was too late, I didn't contact you. I heard Mayor Zuo say that the foundation of the Nanlin Temple project was laid today, so I came here to take a look and you will know that you will definitely be here."

Zhang Yang knew that he was very close to acting mayor Zuo Yuanchao. He obviously didn't need to entertain himself in Jiangcheng, but at least he had to show his politeness. Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Do you have time at noon? I'll welcome you!"

Gu Mingjian shook his head indifferently and said, "I'm afraid it won't work this time. My schedule in Jiangcheng is full of arrangements!" Although he said it very tactfully, he still refused. Gu Mingjian's vigilance towards Zhang Yang still originated from the time when he was beaten in the imperial tyranny. Afterwards, he calmed down and found that he was hit because he was touched by Zhang Yang. Afterwards, Zhang Yang actually reached a tacit understanding with Fang Wennan to help Fang Wennan resolve the crisis, which made Gu Mingjian angry. He thought

In this matter, Zhang Yang was used by him. Zhang Yang really gained the benefit. He also realized the ambiguity between his sister and Zhang Yang, which made him even more disgusted. He felt that Zhang Yang had been approaching the Gu family carefully since he was to raise and treat the disease. The purpose was to use this relationship to achieve political improvement. With such a view, Gu Mingjian's attitude towards Zhang Yang naturally became much colder. He was deliberately or unintentionally alienating this former good friend.

As the two were talking, Andheng walked towards them and smiled and said, "Director Zhang, it turns out that you know Mr. Gu, I want to introduce you to you!"

Gu Mingjian smiled and said, "Old friend!" When he said this, he realized that he and Zhang Yang no longer had the kind of friendship they used to do.

And Deheng nodded and turned to Zhang Yang and said, "I have set a seat in Ruiyang Building at noon. Director Zhang will come here together!"

From And Deheng's words, Zhang Yang realized that Gu Mingjian must have been with him at noon, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised. When Gu Mingjian got involved with And Deheng, this is not a good thing. And Deheng has a very ambitious and purpose in everything he does. When he approached Gu Mingjian, he probably wasn't just a simple matter of getting along with him.

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "No, I still have a lot of things to do at the foundation laying ceremony today, otherwise I will be criticized if my superiors pursue it." He said to Gu Mingjian, "If you have time, call me, let's have a few drinks."

Gu Mingjian nodded perfunctorily.

Looking at Zhang Yang's back as he left, Andheng smiled and said, "Director Zhang is so young and promising!"

Gu Mingjian said softly: "Zhang Yang is indeed very capable!"

Andheng smiled and said, "Mr. Gu, I will take you to see the land in the textile factory!"

Ruiyang Tower is a famous river food restaurant in Jiangcheng. On that day, And Deheng was the host and invited Gu Mingjian from Dongjiang to the No. 1 private room in Ruiyang Tower. Speaking of which, his acquaintance with Gu Mingjian also originated from the introduction of acting mayor Zuo Yuanchao.

This time, Gu Mingjian came to Jiangcheng mainly to worship the Buddha's relics. As people grow older, their minds will gradually mature. Gu Mingjian's maturity is because he was beaten in Jiangcheng last time. Since experiencing that setback, he suddenly changed his outlook on life, and suddenly became tired of the past attitude of playing life, and suddenly felt a sense of crisis. The reason why Fang Wennan was willing to pay money and was willing to bow to him was because his old man was a provincial party committee.

Secretary, it was precisely because of his father and acting mayor of Jiangcheng, Zuo Ai, who was firmly on his own side. Thinking of his father's reign for not too long, Gu Mingjian felt a sense of crisis for the first time. He realized that he should do something. While his father's influence was still there, he should grow up as soon as possible and have the ability to stand alone as soon as possible. His sister Gu Jiatong had advised him more than once before, but Gu Mingjian couldn't listen at that time, but now he realized it himself.

In the morning, Andhing had already taken Gu Mingjian to visit the surrounding Nanlin Temple, inspected the land of the textile factory, and outlined a blueprint for Gu Mingjian's future Nanlin Temple scenic spot. Gu Mingjian had been aroused of a strong interest. Under Andhing's description, he was full of expectations for the future development of Jiangcheng.

The only guest that Andheng invited Gu Mingjian, he raised his glass and said, "Although Mr. Gu and I met for the first time, we are very close. I believe we will become good friends in the future."

Gu Mingjian smiled and said, "Mr. An, don't be so polite. I have learned a lot from you. The four words "stop feeling" represent my mood at the moment."

The two of them touched their glasses and drank all the wine in the glass. Andhn said: "I heard that Mr. Gu is also interested in investing in Jiangcheng?"

Gu Mingjian said: "I came here to inspect it once before, but I didn't find the Buddha's relics at that time. There was no such good opportunity, so not everyone will encounter opportunities."

Andheng smiled and said, "Are you interested in the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area?"
