Chapter 67 State Compensation
Cao Houan sneers, disdain evident from the tone of his voice. He addresses Liang Ligui, “Young Master Liang, what brings you here? You are not part of our organization, nor an involved party. Are you ddling in things that don’t concern you?”
For Cao Houan, as the secretary of the municipal party committee of a city, he would have been fearful should Governor Liang have been present. However, Liang Ligui doesn’t carry the sa weight.
At this mont, Liang Ligui is irate after hearing Cao Houan’s words. He hadn’t expected Cao Houan to be so oblivious to the current context. It seems as if Zhou Ye, the old man, may have a chance after all.
Nevertheless, Liang Ligui casually responds, “Of course, Secretary Cao, you’re not wrong. From the standpoint of position, I am just an ordinary person. However, Secretary Cao, I ca here with Governor Liang’s instructions. If you have any objections, I believe, I can get in touch with Governor Liang right now.”
Upon hearing this, Cao Houan scoffs and strides into the house. As he enters, he sees people scattered on the floor, among them several public officials in police uniforms. His face darkens, and he retorts, “You guys are really bold. Do you still recognize that we are a country? Who gave you the authority to act in such a reckless manner?”
Liu Kun is taken aback. He initially assud that Liang Ligui ca to clean up the ss. However, he was surprised to be interrogated upon entering. Liu Kun is also furious by now. At this mont, he has grasped Nie Zhenbang’s intentions. The more chaotic it gets, the better Nie Zhenbang likes it.
Imdiately, Liu Kun stands up fiercely, glares at Cao Houan and retorts, “And who do you think you are? Are these people your relatives? You co in out of the blue and start making accusations. Are you accustod to pointing fingers like in the ti of the great revolution?”
Having said that, Liu Kun sits down again and in a deep voice, asks, “Where is Liang Ligui? Let him co in and talk to us. As for you?” Liu Kun paused, deliberately giving Cao Houan a contemptuous look. Then he coldly says, “You are not qualified.”
This remark imdiately fuels Cao Houan’s anger. As the principal of the Party Committee of Hulun City, Cao Houan is suprely domineering. When has he ever been treated with such disdain in Hulun City?
Imdiately, he roars almost hysterically, “Where is Lin Yongzeng? Where is he? Imdiately get him here, take all these lawless people who ignore the king’s laws back to the police station for thorough questioning! ”
At this mont, outside the door, Liang Ligui pulls Zhou Taiping, Zhou Ye’s
father, aside and in a low voice says, “Uncle Zhou, I don’t want to say too much.
Before the person inside agrees, I can’t reveal too much. I just want to remind
you. The reason why my father was able to rise to power is due to the person
inside. Whatever you do next, please use your own judgnt.”
Zhou Taiping, like Zhou Ye, is not very tall. However, as the old saying goes,
“Concentration is the essence.” Zhou Taiping, too, is an astute man. Hearing Liang Ligui’s words, Zhou Taiping’s expression changes with surprise. The fact that Governor Liang could rise to power with the help of others clearly indicates his background. Imdiately after, Zhou Taiping gratefully nods and says, “Ligui, I will shalessly accept this great favor of yours. If you need anything in the future, feel free to ask. Uncle Zhou will not refuse.”
As he finishes speaking, they hear Cao Houan roaring inside. Zhou Taiping and the others are shocked. He exchanges a glance with Liang Ligui before stepping inside. Soon after, Xing Weiguo and Lin Yongzeng also follow suit.
Seeing Lin Yongzeng, Cao Houan angrily asks “Lin Yongzeng, what are you doing? Your subordinates are detained by these lawless people, and as the head of the Public Safety Bureau, you are indifferent?”
At this mont, Cao Houan was at the peak of his anger, even his usual composure and dignity were gone. At this ti, Zhou Taiping said nonchalantly, “Secretary Cao, we do not yet understand the situation, and yet you imdiately make an arrest. This… seems sowhat inappropriate.”
Xing Weiguo also provided tily support: “Secretary Cao, I apologize. On Lin Yongzeng’s side, that was my order. Before coming here, I had already received Governor Liang’s directive to ensure the safety of our VIP guests. As for the rest, we will handle everything according to the law.”
Seeing that everyone had almost arrived, Nie Zhenbang also stood up. At this mont, his usually warm deanor was gone. Nie Zhenbang looked serious and walked directly in front of Cao Houan, saying casually: “You must be
Comrade Cao Houan, the Secretary of the Hulun City Municipal Committee.”
With Nie Zhenbang’s aura, Cao Houan was actually taken aback. If Nie Zhenbang didn’t look so young, Cao would have really thought a central leader had co.
However, subconsciously, Cao Houan replied, “Yes, that’s .”
As soon as he finished saying this, Cao Houan reacted, his face darkening, ready to get angry. But Nie Zhenbang imdiately waved his hand. Tiger stepped forward, handing a stack of docunts directly to Zhou Taiping. Nie Zhenbang then said: “This is Mr. Xu Tianci’s self-confessed testimony after a sudden bout of conscience. You all can take a look. This comrade, in the ten years in Eguna City, everything he did after his uncle, Secretary Xu, took office as Deputy Mayor, has outraged both the gods and the people.”
Speaking of this, Nie Zhenbang pointed to Xu Tianci and said: “If you all don’t believe , feel free to verify. We absolutely did not perform any torture for a confession. This confession was entirely admitted without any distress. Furthermore, my friend, simply because of his good looks, was forced by this man to the point of not being able to go ho, ultimately causing the death of my friend’s father. Even my friend’s sixteen year-old younger brother was sentenced to fifteen years in prison for hooliganism just over three years ago. He was only a thirteen-year-old child at that ti. I don’t know how such a large child could be accused of hooliganism. I ask Secretary Cao and Secretary Xu to explain.”
Nie Zhenbang then gave Cao Houan a glance and continued: “Borrowing Secretary Cao’s words from earlier, this world is still a world ruled by law. I refuse to believe that, in this world, there are places without justice. If Hulun City is unreasonable, then I will seek justice in Caoyuan Province. If Caoyuan Province can’t do anything, then I will go to the central governnt. There must be a place where justice can be found.”
Zhou Taiping accepted the docunts and began to read. It was very detailed, not only recording the facts of Xu Tianci’s violation of law and discipline but also so of Secretary Xu’s deeds. For example, Secretary Xu was perverse, once playing with a woman together with Xu Tianci. There were also detailed records of how the cadres below over these years gave gifts to Secretary Xu through Xu Tianci.
At this ti, Zhou Taiping casually handed the docunts to Xiao Yunshan, the secretary of the Hulun City Disciplinary Committee. Now, Zhou Taiping would naturally not bother to save face for Cao Houan. Given Cao Houan’s close relationship with Secretary Xu, even if Cao Houan is completely clean, he now appears dirty. In any case, he can’t continue being secretary. If he didn’t seize this opportunity to step on him now, he would lose that chance altogether.
Imdiately, Zhou Taiping walked forward and said: “Mr. Nie, I am Zhou
Taiping, the First Deputy Secretary of the Hulun City Municipal Committee. The joy of receipt and materials you provided are very important. I guarantee my honor and Party spirit that I will thoroughly investigate the truth.
Regarding Li Chunshan’s wrongful case, I will hold the Procuratorate and the court accountable for a thorough re-investigation. We will definitely give the victims explanation and severely punish the relevant responsible persons. I wonder if Mr. Nie has any other requests?”
The last sentence was actually just a polite remark from Zhou Taiping as there is no occasion now for an apology from the governnt. To be able to appeal for a redress of grievances would already be doing justice to you.
However, Nie Zhenbang nodded at this mont and said: “Hmm, there are still a few people in Hulun City who understand the situation. I will trust you once. I have no other requests. This ti, your governnt must provide reasonable compensation..”
