Chapter 461 Retired Veteran
Chen Yang, who was being cared for by Chen Yanshi and his wife, didn't want to return to Handong, a place that made her sad. In fact, she was also one of the victims.
Let’s talk about the previous life.
Liang Lu pursued Qi Tongwei because she was dumped by her teacher. During this period, Qi Tongwei remained unmoved, so she became a little willful with power, and the outstanding graduate student was assigned to the township judicial office.
Even though he was assigned to the Yantaishan Judicial Office, Qi Tongwei still looked forward to ending his miserable long-distance relationship with Chen Yang and getting married as soon as possible.
During the years of being harassed and suppressed by Liang Lu, Qi Tongwei still maintained an innocent heart, and so did Chen Yang.
In his previous life, Chen Yanshi never helped Qi Tongwei and Chen Yang from beginning to end. Qi Tongwei risked his life to join the anti-drug team for love and future, and was shot three times but still could not get a transfer to another position.
At that moment he was completely disappointed and turned evil, so he closed his heart and chose power, which led to his shocking kneeling on the Handong playground.
This kneeling was jokingly described by Zhong Xiaoai and Hou Liangping as "it's worth it even if I can kneel down to become a Public Security Bureau Director!"
Because Chen Yanshi didn't care and had to watch himself and Qi Tongwei being separated, Chen Yang couldn't help but hate him. He even didn't attend Chen Yanshi's funeral.
Because of his rebirth in this life, after arriving at the Yantaishan Judicial Office, Qi Tongwei's feelings for Chen Yang have faded, but Chen Yang is not like that, he still has feelings for Qi Tongwei.
In this life, she hated not only Qi Tongwei who betrayed her love, but also Chen Yanshi who did nothing. It can be said that to a certain extent, she hated Chen Yanshi even more.
At this time, Chen Yanshi could only be said to be dreaming if he asked her to come back.
News of Chen Yanshi's behavior today soon spread: the old comrade relied on his qualifications to ask the government for land. Qi Tongwei also heard about it, and he felt that this problem needed to be rectified.
"Xiao Liu, inform Comrade Chunlin that I will go to the Veteran Affairs Bureau tomorrow morning to conduct research and have talks." Qi Tongwei instructed his secretary Liu Zhaojun to inform Wu Chunlin.
Qi Tongwei's main purpose of going to the Veteran Affairs Bureau was to discuss the issue of Chen Yanshi's retirement but not retirement. He wanted to take this opportunity to emphasize his position.
The next day, Qi Tongwei and his team arrived at the Provincial Veterans Affairs Bureau at 10 a.m.
Qi Tongwei first extended his blessings to all retired cadres on behalf of the provincial party committee and government, wishing them good health and hoping that they could use their experience to offer advice and suggestions to the government.
Then, the topic changed and started talking about some bad phenomena.
Qi Tongwei began to say: "Handong is what it is today thanks to the efforts of all the predecessors present here, and you deserve the respect of all of us.
But there are some old cadres who do not deserve respect. They rely on their seniority and background to wantonly interfere with the operation of the government. "
After a pause, Qi Tongwei looked at everyone and said, "I believe you may have heard such a rumor recently. A retired senior cadre relied on his qualifications to ask the government for land.
I can tell you now that this is not a rumor but a fact, and it happened in our Guangming District.
Fortunately, our cadres have strong political qualities and are principled in not agreeing, otherwise it would have resulted in the loss of state-owned assets.
I implore everyone to set an example by speaking out and condemning this behavior so that no one will make the same mistake again in the future.”
"Secretary Qi, tell me who it is. Let me, an old man, see who is so shameless." The speaker was Niu Yanfeng, the former chairman of the CPPCC of Handong Province, who had a great influence in Handong.
"It was Comrade Chen Yanshi, former Deputy Chief Prosecutor of the Handong Provincial Procuratorate. This old comrade participated in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and was a hero during the war years, so he is quite special.
"During this period, they have been asking for land for Dafeng Factory, which has put our Guangming District Government in a difficult position. They have already reported it to me." Qi Tongwei explained with a smile.
He knew the tempers of these old guys very well. Most of them were truly devoted to the country. They didn't care about Chen Yanshi's background. Once he really pissed them off, they would definitely not show any mercy when dealing with him.
"Chen Yanshi, I know this person." The speaker was Dou Zhimin, former president of the Handong Provincial Higher People's Court.
"Mr. Dou, tell me, let me see why a bureau-level cadre dares to ask the government for land." Niu Yanfeng said.
"Chen Yanshi joined the party unexpectedly in order to resist explosive packs during a battle against the Japanese. He was always proud of this and often talked about it.
But because of this incident, he was regarded as a role model and went to work in a government department after retiring from the army.
It's just that this person has a low level of education and weak working ability. He has worked in the public security, procuratorial and judicial organs for many years but has not made any great achievements. The most talked about thing is that he kicked Secretary Zhao Lichun out of the air-conditioned room. "Speaking of Chen Yanshi, Dou Zhimin was disdainful.
"Joining the party in order to resist a surprise attack on explosives is indeed worthy of being written about, but it cannot be a reason to enjoy privileges. There were many heroes in our country during the war years. If everyone was like him, it would be chaos!" said a retired cadre, adjusting his glasses.
"Isn't he helping Zhao Lichun?" someone questioned.
"That's right. I'm telling everyone that Secretary Zhao Lichun has no other problems except the issue of using the air conditioner!" These old guys have been in official careers for their entire lives, and Chen Yanshi's little tricks were quickly guessed by them.
Many people questioned Chen Yanshi's approach.
"Mr. Niu and Mr. Dou, you don't know that this retired chief prosecutor has turned his residence into a second procuratorate because his son Chen Hai is the director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau, and he even calls it the people's trust in him.
But the masses he was referring to were all shareholding workers, who in principle could not be considered workers.
These workers failed in their business, and the Dafeng Factory in which they held shares was forcibly auctioned off by the court due to debts. Excluding the external debts, each of these shareholding workers received at least a million.
But they are still not satisfied and want more.
After these people jointly established the Xindafeng Factory, they did not conduct market research or develop products, but instead found Chen Yanshi and asked for industrial land for factory construction.
"Fellow senior leaders, do you think this land can be given to us?" Wu Chunlin asked everyone on behalf of Qi Tongwei.
“We can’t give it to them. If everyone does this, then the government will no longer be able to do its job!
Today Zhang San wants 20 acres of land, tomorrow Li Si wants 20 acres of land, and the day after tomorrow Wang Ermaizi wants 30 acres of land. Once this loophole is opened, many people will set their sights on taking government land.
If that's the case, how much land does the country have for them to do this? "Dou Zhimin was born as the president of a court, and he believes in rule of law.
"Nonsense, what does Chen Yanshi want to do? He wants to trade power for money. Secretary Qi, please tell us what we should do to put an end to this phenomenon. We old bones will do our best." Niu Yanfeng said solemnly.
Qi Tongwei nodded, looked at everyone seriously, and said slowly: "I really want everyone to do me a favor.
We would like to ask all the old leaders to personally go to various cities and organize a meeting of retired leading cadres at or above the deputy division level.
You are responsible for organizing and convening a meeting of retired provincial cadres.
At the meeting, a good lesson was given to everyone to make those with ulterior motives understand that they must not rely on their former status and position to interfere with the normal operation of the government.
When it is time to retire, you should do it peacefully and stop being greedy for power and retiring. Of course, this does not mean that you should stop expressing your opinions.
I still hope that all retired veterans can use their experience to help us young people grow and actively put forward their own opinions and suggestions. "
"Okay, this issue really needs everyone's attention. We will definitely help you." Niu Yanfeng and others quickly agreed.
"Comrade Chunlin, the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee will help the old leaders organize this meeting, and the funding of the meeting will be borne by the Organization Departments at all levels." Qi Tongwei instructed Wu Chunlin.
