428: Chapter 428: The Big Earthquake 428: Chapter 428: The Big Earthquake Linwu County governnt building was only put into use last year.
Although its location is no longer as bustling as before, its area has indeed doubled compared to the old governnt building.
The construction of the new governnt building is said to have an investnt of three hundred million, but how much of that is true is unknown.
Two black Audis stopped at the entrance of the Linwu County governnt.
The special-duty guards imdiately ca to check.
The n sitting inside the cars were wearing black uniforms with stern faces.
One of them took out an ID and showed it to the guard.
The guard’s eyes landed on the identification, and his face instantly showed a hint of surprise.
He promptly gave a standard military salute and gestured for them to pass.
Seeing the two Audis drive into the governnt building, the guard finally turned his gaze away, but he still looked very surprised.
Why had people from the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission suddenly co to the Linwu County governnt?
The term ‘disciplinary inspection’ is one that makes officials uncomfortable when they hear it.
And this ti, it’s the Donglin Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission arriving, which gives a bad premonition.
On the eighth floor of the county governnt, in the large eting room, Linwu County was holding its daily routine eting, with quite a few dia reporters inside capturing footage for tily reporting.
The main leaders of the Linwu County Party Committee were making statents in turn, and the number of people attending the eting was close to a hundred.
The County Magistrate was on the stage, tirelessly repeating the sa bureaucratic rhetoric, portraying a model of service to the people, tirelessly working until exhausted, while thunderous applause occasionally broke out from below.
The dia journalists were also eagerly capturing the scene since the content and spirit of this eting would be the highlight of the nightly news.
Suddenly, the doors of the eting room were pushed open directly, and six solemn n wearing badges walked in, heading straight toward the podium.
The Secretary of the County Party Committee, who was speaking, also stopped and swept an annoyed glance over the six n.
All eyes in the room turned their attention to them; how dare anyone interrupt at this ti – what were the guards doing?
However, when everyone saw the Donglin Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission badges hanging from their chests, they all shut their mouths.
The County Party Secretary’s brows furrowed.
The people he least wanted to see were probably those from the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission.
“Hello, I am Fan Di, the head of the bribery cri division of Donglin Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission.
Under higher orders, we are here to request Secretary Liang and County Magistrate Huang to co with us, please cooperate with our work,” said the man leading the group with a stern face.
The faces of Secretary Liang and County Magistrate Huang turned pale.
The Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission had co directly to take people away, and they had received no prior warnings, which ant this matter was not ordinary.
Once they left, they likely would not return, condemned to spend the latter half of their lives behind bars.
How could they have clean hands sitting in their positions?
But there are so secrets in officialdom that aren’t known to the public.
They couldn’t have reached their positions without having connections in the city.
This sudden raid by the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission ant their connections in the city were practically useless now, or at least unable to suppress this matter.
The two looked at each other, both with chilled expressions.
The entire room was in an uproar.
Since the founding of the Kingdom, Linwu County had never witnessed the fall of high-ranking officials.
This ti, while a eting was convening, the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission ca and directly took away both the County Magistrate and the County Chief.
Everyone could think that these two were essentially about to fall from grace, never to return.
The sky over Linwu County had changed.
At the sa ti, three people from the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission were in Linwu County Public Security Bureau taking away Chief Fu Bochuan.
This news spread quickly through Linwu County like a massive tsunami.
Such a significant event could not be suppressed, and with so many dia present, it was reported imdiately.
The entire Linwu County was in an uproar as if a major earthquake had shaken the very sky of Linwu County, with the Wei Family and Chang Family’s conflict just beginning to ignite the slow-burning smog, followed quickly by the County Magistrate, County Chief, and Chief of Public Security all being taken away by the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission.
The news caused a trendous shock in all directions.
Chang Family.
Chang Zhaohui hung up the phone with Chang Zhaoyao and burst into loud laughter: “Haha, it seems heaven is truly helping the Chang Family.
The golden opportunity for our family’s developnt has finally arrived.”
“Dad, what has made you so happy?” Chang Baosheng asked curiously, while the elderly Mr.
Chang’s gaze also fell on Chang Zhaohui.
On the side, Tangyu’s lips curved upward, it seed Xiao Yu’s actions had already begun.
“Haha, good news, definitely great news.
Just now, the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission suddenly raided the county governnt and directly took Secretary Liang and County Magistrate Huang away.
And it’s not just those two, Chief Fu Bochuan was also taken.
Being taken away by the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission like that, they’re basically destined to fall from grace.
This incident is enough to shake Linwu County.
There will inevitably be a major purge and bloodletting in our Linwu County’s political circle.
This ti, it looks like my brother has a chance to climb higher.
Once he takes one of those positions, our Chang Family’s status and power in Linwu County will be even more consolidated.
And your uncle, this ti he has the opportunity to take Fu Bochuan’s place.
Then, our Chang Family in Linwu County needn’t fear anyone anymore,” Chang Zhaohui said, extrely excited.
The elder Chang too revealed a rare smile on his face, “Indeed, heaven aids our Chang Family.
We must move quickly on this matter, it seems I have to get out there and et up with so old friends.
I’m prepared to stake my reputation on this round.”
“Haha Dad, as long as you’re willing to take charge, those friends of yours from the past will definitely give you face,” Chang Zhaohui said.
Chang Baosheng was naturally happy, but a thought also crossed his mind, “Is it really such a coincidence?” His gaze turned to Tangyu, and seeing Tangyu’s expression, Chang Baosheng beca even more certain that this was probably Tangyu’s doing behind the scenes, an idea he recalled Tangyu had discussed with him.
Cai Long’s three main pillars of support were these three people, and they had all been taken away at the sa ti just now, by the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission in a sudden raid.
To say that this had nothing to do with Tangyu, Chang Baosheng wouldn’t believe it.
When sothing seed too coincidental, it could no longer be considered a re coincidence.
Tangyu admired Xiao Yu’s power; in less than a day’s ti, Xiao Yu had managed to navigate through connections and directly have these three heavyweights taken away.
The power he demonstrated in this regard truly deserved respect.
However, this was just the beginning, next would co the power of public opinion.
In Cai Corporation’s office, after Cai Long received the shocking news and confird it through a dozen calls, he believed it.
He smashed everything on his office desk.
“Damn it, to encounter such terrible luck,” Cai Long cursed.
“All the painstaking effort I’ve put into building these relationships over the years, right now, broken so suddenly.
Who is behind this, attacking them?
Given their connections, they shouldn’t have been taken away like that by a surprise raid from the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission.” Cai Long was filled with rage, and even more so confused; such a thing should not have happened, yet it happened for real.
Therefore, he guessed that so powerful figure must be manipulating this behind the scenes.
These three were relationships that he had spent more than a decade and countless energy and money to establish.
If they truly fell, he would inevitably have to start from scratch, to forge new connections with the new power holders, which would be another drain on his resources.
Although rebuilding the connections would be the least of his worries, where could such newly established ties be as solid and reliable?
The fall of these three would have a huge impact on him.
His new projects were all governnt key support projects, which might all be affected by this ordeal, and the consequences were unimaginable.
After all, he had invested billions into these projects.
Cai Long felt completely drained, sitting in his chair with an extrely grim expression, his eyes flickering with a sinister light.
This incident was a trendous blow to him.
At the Wei Family residence, Wei Yaoye and the elder Wei were playing chess when they received this news, and they too were quite surprised.
“Such a big event cannot happen just out of blue; there must be a reason behind it.
Soone must be orchestrating this event behind the scenes,” the elder Wei said.
Wei Yaoye nodded in agreent, “That’s likely, and I’m afraid this may be the doings of soone called Lei Ming manipulating it from behind, which would be very unfavorable for us.
The stronger the opponent, the smaller our chances of winning.
If Lei Ming has such power to change Linwu County’s political landscape, then his influence is terrifying, and our Wei Family may not stand a chance against him.”
The elder Wei’s face grew colder as he nodded, “We can only wait and see how this plays out.
Just who is this Lei Ming, and what are his intentions for orchestrating such a big event?
It is truly puzzling.”
“Indeed, it’s cryptic.
My people haven’t found any concrete information, and Lei Ming’s background is still unclear.
What’s odd is why soone of his stature would take an interest in our little Linwu County and cause such a stir.
Could it be that he rely intends to control Linwu County to establish his own kingdom here?” Wei Yaoye shook his head.
The elder Wei paused before speaking gravely, “Nothing is impossible, and we mustn’t overlook any possibility.
Although Linwu County is small, it’s still a juicy piece.
Perhaps, so big shot from Donglin City can’t make it there and wants to control Linwu County, establishing his own domain here.
The waters run deep in Donglin City; I’ve always told you, don’t go to Donglin City if there’s no need.
In Donglin City, our Wei Family counts for nothing.”
Wei Yaoye nodded, “Grandpa is right, we shouldn’t overlook any possibility.
Everything happens for a reason and a purpose.
However, Cai Long is the one who’s hit the hardest this ti.
Our relationship with those three has always been lukewarm, so their downfall doesn’t affect the Wei Family much.
My only worry is that the Chang Family might take advantage of this situation.
If Chang Zhaohui and Luo Fuchun rise, then no one will be able to challenge the Chang Family’s status in the future.
I’m afraid that the Wei Family will suffer under their hands.”
The elder Wei’s face was somber, his eyes profound and frightening, “The Chang Family will certainly strive for power, and there’s nothing we can do to stop it.
We can only hope for the best.
Hopefully, the person behind all this has their own sches and won’t let the Chang Family take too much advantage.
Otherwise, the Chang Family of the future will no longer be as it is today.”
Wei Yaoye nodded, but he still had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
For a mont, a thought crossed his mind, could this have anything to do with Tangyu?
But that idea was quickly dismissed.
