Material Empire

Qin Hai and his party walked all over Dongdaogou Village, and Lu Dashuang and other small bosses had no doubt that they were the legendary Central Working Group. In the minds of the small bosses, the officials of the working group should be bossy and full of reason. How could they be as vulgar as that boss Xin, and how could they be as approachable as that "brother Zong". Since it is common for Dongdaogou Village to receive foreign merchants, everyone regarded the visit of Qin Hai and others as an ordinary business activity.

The only thing that makes them regret is that they did not accept this large order of up to 20,000 tons per month. But his "brother Zong" said that Boss Xin's project is a big project, and the quality should not be too sloppy, so the ground strip steel in Dongdaogou still has some distance from people's expectations.

"Should we go to the provincial capital and ask a professor to come and take a look?" Lu Dashuang returned to the village and discussed it seriously with his friends.

"Please, please, I don't know what's going on with the policy at the top. If the investigation is stricter at that time, our factory will not be able to continue, and the money spent will not be in vain?" Some other small bosses said Said.

"Yeah, if you can keep doing it, it's worth spending some money. I'm worried every day, who has the time to hire an expert?" Other people also echoed.

"But I promised Brother Zong..." Lu Dashuang became a little depressed.

Otherwise, let's look at the situation again, Lu Dashuang finally thought this way.

Besides, Qin Hai, after leaving Dongdaogou Village, he separated from Xin Jinlong and only brought Ge Dongyan back to Guo Qiushi. Seeing Qin Hai come back unscathed, Guo Qiushi finally put his heart back into his stomach. He was chanting Buddha in his mouth, and quickly stepped forward and asked, "Team Leader Qin, how is it? Nothing happened, right? "

"What could happen?" Qin Hai asked back with a smile.

"They didn't make things difficult for you?" Guo Qiushi asked.

Qin Hai knew that Guo Qiushi could see him enter the village by car, but he probably didn't see Xin Jinlong's presence, so he replied, "I'm in a Mercedes-Benz, and they think I'm a big boss, so they won't make things difficult for me."

"That's good." Guo Qiushi said sincerely, if something happened to Qin Hai in Dongdaogou, his guilt would be serious.

"By the way, Team Leader Qin, how is your investigation in the village? Did you gain a lot?" Guo Qiushi asked again.

Qin Hai nodded, and said vaguely: "Well, it's okay, I came into contact with some situations... By the way, have you contacted Reporter Ling?"

Hearing Qin Hai ask this question, Guo Qiushi's face turned red all of a sudden, and he said, "Team Leader Qin, I'll criticize you and tell me about my affairs, I..."

"Why, you didn't contact me?" Qin Hai asked strangely.

"No, I contacted. However, I didn't say who I am, but I just said that I am an enthusiastic member of the public and reported to him. I said that a central working group has arrived in Xingchuan to investigate the flood of small iron and steel in Xingchuan. Question, it is estimated that there will be a lot of news points, let him hurry up and report. Before he asked any more questions, I hung up the phone quickly." Guo Qiushi said.

"Haha!" Qin Hai laughed. He knew that Guo Qiushi did this because he was afraid that people in the county would know that he had tipped off Qin Hai, and that he pretended to be an enthusiastic member of the public, so that the county officials would have no way of guessing who it was. After all, the fact that Ling Shijie was beaten back then was no secret in Xingchuan. Many people knew about it. Some people were afraid that the world would not be chaotic, so it was possible to call Ling Shijie to report.

Qin Hai's original intention was to invite Ling Shijie to cooperate with him, and he was even willing to create some conditions for Ling Shijie. Now Guo Qiushi has adopted a method of hiding the head and shrinking the tail, which is also a new choice for Qin Hai. Simply let Ling Shijie conduct independent interviews and reports independently, and follow the original thinking on what to do, so as not to restrain each other.

In the following time, Qin Hai took Guo Qiushi to continue investigating in various towns. The subordinates he brought were also divided into several groups, or pretended to be buyers, or sold scrap steel, looking for various opportunities to contact small steel mills and small coking plants to understand their business conditions.

Although Guo Qiushi has been with Qin Hai all the time, he is completely confused about the progress of Qin Hai's investigation. He knew it was because Qin Hai didn't fully trust him, and he didn't complain about it. In his opinion, it would be safer to know less about the situation, so he didn't bother to help the bosses of small steel factories. .

During this period, Qin Hai also made phone calls with Gao Xuejian from time to time, saying a few unnutritious routines, so as not to worry Gao Xuejian. Gao Xuejian proposed several times to send someone to deliver some food to them, but Qin Hai politely declined. The area of ​​Xingchuan County is neither big nor small. Qin Hai and his party deliberately concealed their whereabouts, and Gao Xuejian really had no way to find and monitor them.

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed, and Qin Hai already had a good understanding of the situation in Xingchuan County. As a county with the most concentrated small iron and steel, the situation in Xingchuan can also be used as a microcosm of the national small iron and steel situation. With these first-hand materials, Qin Hai was able to implement his next move.

"Old Guo, our investigation has almost come to an end. Today I plan to go back to the county to have a brief communication with the county magistrate Gao, and then I will return to the capital to report. We have had a very pleasant cooperation during this time. Please allow me to represent the working group I would like to express my sincere thanks to you." At the fork in the road leading to the county, Qin Hai said solemnly to Guo Qiushi.

"Uh, uh, this is what I should do. Is Team Leader Qin leaving Xingchuan today? Well, I really don't want to leave Team Leader Qin..." Guo Qiushi seemed hesitant to speak.

"Old Guo, after we leave, County Magistrate Gao will definitely ask you about our investigation. Have you thought about how to answer him?" Qin Hai asked again.

"Group Leader Qin, what do you think I should answer him?" Guo Qiushi said with a sad face. Gao Xuejian sent him to follow Qin Hai, naturally hoping that he could create some resistance to Qin Hai's investigation, lest Qin Hai learn too much of the truth. He is good, not only did not hinder Qin Hai's investigation, but also provided Qin Hai with a lot of inside information about Xingchuan County. If Gao Xuejian knew this, wouldn't he be tortured to death?

Qin Haidao: "You can have two choices. One is that the people I brought have already investigated the situation in Xingchuan County, and I have even investigated matters involving the county magistrate Gao himself. Prepare early; the other is that I brought a group of people just to bluff, but I didn’t even enter a factory, I just took some pictures outside and went through the motions. The two answers depend on your own considerations, I never force others , will not make any demands on you."

Guo Qiushi was speechless, isn't this a difficult situation? Qin Haiming said that there are two choices, and which one should Guo Qiushi choose? Isn't it obvious at a glance? Guo Qiushi has already taken refuge in Qin Hai, which determines that he has no way out. To tell the truth to Gao Xuejian, in the end, it can only be that the inside and outside are not human.

"Group Leader Qin, needless to say, I will definitely not leak the secret to County Chief Gao... However, this matter will not be covered for a long time. If County Chief Gao gives me small shoes, you promised me, Group Leader Qin... When Guo Qiushi said this, he looked at Qin Hai pitifully, and stopped talking.

"Well, yes, I promised you." Qin Hai seemed to have just remembered his promise. He patted his head and asked suddenly: "Old Guo, if I need you to make a little sacrifice, would you be willing?"

"Sacrifice?" Guo Qiushi was a little puzzled.

"Well, sacrifice." Qin Hai said seriously, "Such as an injured arm, a broken leg, etc... Don't worry, it's not the kind of permanent disability, it's just a bit of physical pain."

"But...why?" Guo Qiushi asked, for no reason, who would be willing to suffer such an indiscriminate disaster. Flattering the leaders of the central government is the same thing, it hurts the muscles and bones... Isn't the price a bit high?

"Just say whether you want it or not." Qin Hai said with a smile.

Guo Qiushi thought for a while, then nodded resolutely, and said, "As long as you need it, Team Leader Qin, it's okay for my old Guo to suffer a little. Tell me, Team Leader Qin, what do you need me to do?"

"Old Guo, look over there..." Qin Hai pointed to the distance with his hand.

Guo Qiushi didn't know, turned his head to look, and before he saw anything, he felt a gust of wind behind him, and his body flew out involuntarily, and then fell heavily into the field seven or eight meters away. Because he was defenseless, he fell in a very embarrassing situation, his hands and face were scratched several times by the stones on the ground, and one arm was dislocated as Qin Hai predicted, and he couldn't lift it up at all.

"Team Leader Qin, this..." Guo Qiushi really cried. He saw Ge Dongyan who was standing next to Qin Hai who was attacking him. All too underestimated. However, he didn't offend Qin Hai at all, so why did Qin Hai want to do this to him?

"Ah, ah, old Guo, what's the matter with you?" Qin Hai ran forward, squatted on the ground, with a distressed expression on his face: "Look, the car we were riding in was in an accident just now, and you stood up to save me. You were seriously injured when you came out. Don’t worry, I will immediately arrange for you to be hospitalized in a large hospital in the provincial capital. I will also ask the State Economic and Trade Commission to send a letter to the province, requesting that you be rewarded for your deeds of protecting the cadres of the Central Working Group. Commendation. You can stay in the hospital for a while with peace of mind, and I will submit an organizational award after I finish my work here."

Guo Qiushi may be a bit dull in other matters, but when it comes to the tricks in the officialdom, there is no reason why he doesn't understand. He immediately understood Qin Hai's arrangement, and couldn't help but feel elated. He pretended to be reserved, and replied in a dignified tone:

"This... This is what I should do. It is my greatest wish that you are safe, Team Leader Qin."
