Official excuse: I was sent to work at the grassroots level for training, and Hou Liangping arrested

“Ruijin, you must have offended someone. It’s very likely the Zhao family, three generations.”

"Otherwise, Zhao Mengsheng wouldn't have gotten so angry. It's obvious he's targeting you."

Sha Ruijin frowned, completely bewildered. How could he have offended Zhao Mengsheng?

What is Zhao Mengsheng's background? He participated in the war in the 1980s and made outstanding contributions.

"Dad, I...I really don't know who I offended." Sha Ruijin's face showed a hint of grievance.

Mr. Sun: "In Hanxi Province now, Pei Yihong is serving as the provincial party secretary."

"Ruijin, think this through carefully. When you went down to Handong, did you appoint or dismiss anyone? Did you remove anyone from their posts?" Old Sun's expression was serious, and his voice was steady and powerful.

Sha Ruijin fell into deep thought, his mind flashing back to his time in Handong Province. He recalled that upon arriving in Handong, he immediately went down to conduct research.

He suddenly remembered that he had once removed Lin Yunfei from his position as secretary of the Guangming District Committee.

Could it be that Lin Yunfei has some connection with Zhao Mengsheng? Or is he a relative of Zhao Mengsheng?

Sha Ruijin gave a bitter smile to himself: "Dad, I remember now... If I really have to offend someone, there's only one thing. Two days ago, I removed Lin Yunfei from his position as the Party Secretary of Guangming District."

Upon hearing this voice, Old Master Sun was greatly surprised, his pupils suddenly contracting: "I remember now, Lin Yunfei. He is a third-generation direct descendant of the Lin family, who was sent down to the grassroots level for training by the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet."

"He is the grandson of Grand Secretary Lin Jianguo."

Upon hearing these words, Sha Ruijin's heart skipped a beat. A chill ran down his spine, and he became somewhat uneasy.

"Dad. I don't know, I really don't know. Lin Yunfei is the Grand Secretary's grandson."

"If I had known, I would never have dismissed him."

Sha Ruijin looked aggrieved, feeling like he'd been tricked: "I'm not stupid. I would never do something that would offend the Lin and Zhao families."

"Never mind, what's done is done."

"The Lin family and Zhao Mengsheng also retaliated."

"Hanxi Province now belongs to the Lin family."

"Ruijin, you must be careful. Neither the Zhao family nor the Lin family are easy to deal with. Since they have already made their move, it means the matter is over," Old Master Sun said earnestly.

"We've finally given ourselves an explanation in Beijing." A hint of heartache appeared on Old Sun's face.

"After you go back, you can convene a standing committee meeting and promote Lin Yunfei."

Sha Ruijin nodded, a resolute glint in his eyes: "Dad, don't worry. I'll handle it carefully. The situation in Handong is very complicated right now."

"I will immediately conclude my research and return to Jingzhou City to see Lin Yunfei."

After hanging up the phone, Sha Ruijin stood by the window, gazing into the distance.

He knew that an unprecedented political storm was about to break. He was under immense pressure, having to complete the tasks assigned to him by the central government.

Qi Tongwei was forced to plead guilty and accept trial, and to provide evidence of Zhao Lichun's crimes.

Subdue Gao Yuliang's Han University gang and stabilize the economy of Handong Province.

He also had to deal with the joint suppression from the Lin and Zhao families, and he had completely lost power in Hanxi Province.

Sha Ruijin took a deep breath, his eyes revealing determination and unyielding spirit.

"Secretary Bai, immediately suspend the investigation. Take a car back to Jingzhou in an hour." Sha Ruijin made a decisive decision and picked up the phone to call Secretary Bai.

Secretary Bai nodded: "Okay, Secretary Sha."

Sha Ruijin stood by the window, watching the scenery rushing past, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He knew all too well that he was standing at the eye of a political storm, and that a single misstep could sweep him away and bring him to ruin.

He recalled every detail since his transfer to Handong, from the initial research to dealing with various forces, and now to Zhao Mengsheng's fatal blow.

All of this is because of Chen Yanshi.

This "adoptive father" doesn't even have his own phone number.

If it weren't for maintaining a sense of kinship, how could Sha Ruijin possibly abandon his core supporters?

Sha Ruijin knew he couldn't just sit idly by. He had to take action to both stabilize the situation in Handong and find an opportunity to complete his mission.

To dismantle the Zhao family's Shanshui Group.

"Secretary Bai, please inform Comrade Ji Changming from the Procuratorate to come to the Provincial Party Committee at 3 PM this afternoon," Sha Ruijin said hastily, snapping out of his reverie.

58. Li Dakang exerted extreme pressure, leaving Chen Hai in a state of utter chaos.

The following day, Chen Hai, wearing a white shirt, arrived at the Guangming District Government Building to complete his onboarding procedures.

Little did anyone know that today would be a nightmare for Chen Hai.

Zheng Xipo and Wang Wenge, along with more than a thousand workers from Dafeng Factory, arrived at the entrance of the Guangming District Government and held up a long banner to protest.

[The leaders of Guangming District are failing in their duties and colluding with the Shanshui Group. This collusion between officials and businessmen is aimed at forcibly demolishing the Dafeng Factory.]

Chen Hai was standing in the district head's office when he looked down and saw this banner.

There were also many passersby around, taking pictures with their mobile phones.

Liang Xiaohua, director of the district committee office, rushed in in a panic: "District Chief Chen, something bad has happened. The workers from Dafeng Factory are causing trouble again."

Chen Hai's expression was serious as he raised his right hand: "Call the police, call the police immediately. Get the Guangming District Police Station to dispatch officers."

Liang Xiaohua lowered her head and said in a deep voice, "District Chief Chen, I just called the police, but the operator said that their branch director, Cheng Du, is in a meeting in the city."

"A meeting?" Chen Hai looked incredulous upon hearing this.

Office Director Liang Xiaohua: "Yes, I heard it was Lin Yunfei, the director of the Municipal Bureau, who ordered all the directors of the branch bureaus in Jingzhou City to attend a meeting at the Municipal Bureau today."

"Symposium on the Special Campaign to Eliminate Organized Crime and Gangs".

Jingle Bell! !

At that moment, a call came in from an unknown number.

"Hello, this is Chen Hai."

Li Dakang's icy voice reached my ears: "Chen Hai, what are you good for? The entrance to the Guangming District Government Building is blocked by employees of Dafeng Factory."

"They even held up banners and gathered to cause trouble."

Li Dakang roared, "Why aren't you doing anything about this, district head? The situation is starting to escalate!"

"It's all over the internet, and various short video platforms are forwarding it."

"The number of reposts has exceeded 5 million, and now the whole country knows about it."

Chen Hai was startled and quickly put his phone away. He took a deep breath and said, "Secretary Li, I... today is my first day at work."

Li Dakang snorted coldly, applying maximum pressure: "Hmph! Are you trying to shirk responsibility?"

"Now that you've become the head of Guangming District, you're responsible for managing the entire Guangming District."

"In particular, there's the issue of dismantling the Dafeng factory. I'm giving you six days; you must dismantle it."

Li Dakang didn't care if it was your first day at work. All he wanted was results.

Upon hearing this, Chen Hai's face turned extremely ugly: "Secretary Li, can't you be reasonable? This is my first day at work."

"Reasoning? I'm not reasoning with you. Who's reasoning with me?"

"Dafeng Factory was originally located within the Guangmingfeng Project's demolition and relocation planning and design."

"All the factories around Dafeng Factory have been demolished. Only Dafeng Factory remains, stubbornly holding out." Li Dakang sneered, his voice suddenly rising.

"Chen Hai, you only have six days."

"I want to see Dafeng Factory demolished in six days."

After saying that, Li Dakang hung up the phone without hesitation.

Damn, this Li Dakang. Just as rumored, he's domineering and ruthless.

Chen Hai couldn't help but curse inwardly.

"Director Liang, you can go out now. I need some peace and quiet." Chen Hai took a deep breath and waved his hand.

Just then, the district government's finance director rushed in, looking flustered.

"District Chief Chen, this is terrible. The district's fiscal account only has 1 million yuan left. If we run out of money, we won't even be able to pay this month's salaries, let alone pensions."

Chen Hai was taken aback: "What's going on? Didn't someone donate 500 million?"

"Yes, it was just yesterday, Wednesday. Secretary Lin transferred all 400 million yuan to the municipal bureau's account. He said it was for purchasing new police equipment for the Jingzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau," the district finance director quickly explained.

"Another 30 million was allocated to the Education Bureau to pay the salaries of all public school teachers in the district."

Upon hearing this, Chen Hai felt a wave of dizziness and his vision went black.

Well, Lin Yunfei dug a hole for himself before he left.

"Ahem. By the way, what about taxes?" Chen Hai took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and covered his face with his right hand, his voice trembling.

"All the investors in the Guangmingfeng project have run away."

"Even the logistics park, the projects that Secretary Lin brought in through investment promotion, have announced their withdrawal of investment and departure from Jingzhou and Handong."

Upon hearing this bad news, Chen Hai's vision went black and he fainted.

"Something's wrong! Call an ambulance!"

"Hurry! District Chief Chen has fainted. Call 120."

. . . . .

Meanwhile, the Jingzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau.

Lin Yunfei was wearing a police uniform with a white shirt underneath. He was holding a water glass filled with goji berries.

The long, round mahogany table was occupied by the directors of various branch bureaus and the deputy directors of the municipal bureau.

"Comrades, we are police officers..."

"The campaign against organized crime is a long-term endeavor that requires patience, meticulousness, and attention to detail."

"Starting tomorrow, traffic police and auxiliary police officers from local police stations must be present on all main roads in all districts of Jingzhou City to strictly investigate drunk driving."

"Starting tomorrow, the Public Security Brigade and the Narcotics Enforcement Brigade will launch a series of crackdowns on entertainment venues, nightclubs, foot massage parlors, nightclubs, and internet cafes throughout Jingzhou City."
