The flowers in the factory of rebirth are too fierce

A flash of lightning split the night sky, and heavy rain fell in an instant. It seemed as if the sky had cracked open, and countless water poured down on the land of southern Jiangxi. The lights of the Gannan Hotel were bright in the rain, and many rooms were still on until late at night.

Cars drove into Gannan Hotel one after another, and people who looked like leaders got out of the cars in a hurry and walked into the hotel gate. They had all received urgent notices to attend tomorrow's meeting.

Behind the windows of the hotel stood a group of people who could not sleep all night. They were all leaders of various functional departments of one city and eight counties who were attending the meeting today. At this moment, looking at the major officials from various places who were urgently summoned, their hearts were in turmoil.

My mood at this moment is like the lightning, thunder, wind and rain outside.

I am destined to remain awake tonight. I wonder if the weather tomorrow will be the same as it is now?

******

At nine o'clock in the morning, a group of officials with dark circles and bloodshot eyes walked into the conference room with heavy steps.

There was no usual greeting and polite conversation. Today's scene was so quiet that it made people feel uneasy. No one spoke when these officials met. At most, they made eye contact and nodded to each other. Then they sat quietly in their seats.

Someone checked it out.

The heads of one city and eight counties in southern Jiangxi were all present. The municipal party secretary, mayor, eight county party secretaries, eight county governors, and the heads of finance, land, and state-owned assets at the municipal and county levels were all present. What surprised many people was that the leaders of the municipal public security, discipline inspection commission, and even the organization department were also present.

The large conference room that was not full yesterday was full today.

The meeting was scheduled to start at 9:30. Starting from 9 o'clock, for a full half hour, no one spoke in the entire conference room. Everyone was quietly organizing the materials in their hands.

Time seemed to have stopped. The quartz clock hanging in front of the conference room was ticking so slowly.

Many leaders have experienced what it means to live every day like a year at this moment.

It seemed like a century had passed, and at 9:20, someone appeared in the conference room again.

The main leaders of the provincial land, state-owned assets, public security and other departments lined up and walked in.

Finally, there was a voice in the conference room.

"Hello Director Li!"

"Director Feng, you are here too?"

The directors forced a smile on their faces and nodded in response. After a brief greeting, silence returned to the conference room.

At 9:25, staff members of the large working committee filed in.

Qiu Aiju, Xiang Yaoting, Jiang Fenglai and Yang Delian walked into the venue with their respective team members.

Officials who were familiar with them greeted them in unison. The conference room became lively again for a minute, and then there was a long, heart-pounding silence.

After the comrades of the large working committee sat down, their expressions were serious, they did not say a word, and they just sorted out the materials in their hands.

Ma Mingyi, who had fired a shot at the meeting yesterday, still had a stiff neck and no change could be seen from his face. No one could see through his heart, but a man with a frightened face and fidgeting appeared next to him. He was Ye Quanwen, the director of the Ningdu Land and Resources Bureau who was absent from the meeting yesterday.

Ye Quanwen originally planned to travel during the May Day holiday, but because he had so much fun, he stayed out of town after the holiday.

It was not until after the meeting yesterday that the deputy county chief of Ningdu called him urgently. He then knew that Ma Mingyi had caused a big disaster at the meeting and contradicted Assistant Lin from Yanjing. Now the new governor has come to Gannan overnight. Needless to say, he must have come to question him. Ye Quanwen was so scared that he flew back to Gannan that day and attended the meeting on time today.

Ye Quanwen, who was sitting in the back row of the conference room, felt very uncomfortable. From the moment he walked in, countless eyes were cast at him intentionally or unintentionally.

Although Ye Quanwen is a grassroots cadre, he has experienced ups and downs in the officialdom for decades. He knows that he is doomed today. He has angered the imperial envoy. The best outcome would probably be dismissal and investigation. If the case is more serious, he might even be imprisoned.

When he thought of this, Ye Quanwen glared at Ma Mingyi beside him with hatred in his eyes without any concealment.

If it weren't for this ignorant Ma Erlengzi, how could I have suffered such a sudden misfortune?

The Ma family is a large family in Ningdu. Relying on their large number of people and the fact that some of their family members are officials in the province, the Ma family has been running rampant in Ningdu, seizing and robbing people by trickery.

It is said that one fifth of the mines in Ningdu are controlled by the Ma family. Any mine that the Ma family likes cannot escape their control. Other mine owners cannot afford to offend them and can only sell their mines to them at a low price. The Ma family has become the local emperor of Ningdu by relying on their large numbers and ruthless hands. Ye Quanwen, the director of the Land Bureau, is a complete puppet. He cannot make decisions on major matters and no one listens to him on minor matters. Ye Quanwen simply does not care about it and hands all the business of the bureau to Ma Mingyi. He just travels around and escapes reality in this way.

Ma Mingyi seemed to sense the hateful gaze. He turned his head and his eyes met Ye Quanwen's.

Ma Mingyi was a little confused. Ye Quanwen, who usually obeyed him, dared to look at him so bluntly today. He was a little annoyed and said in a low voice, "Old Ye, don't think that you can get angry just because the leaders of Yanjing support you. To tell you the truth, even if I don't serve as the director anymore, the Ma family still has the final say in Ningdu. Don't forget, my uncle is still in the province!"

Ye Quanwen grinned and gave Ma Mingyi a sinister smile, "You ignorant fool, do you think that after today, there will still be the Ma family in Ningdu? Not to mention that your uncle is only a department-level leader, even if he is a vice-provincial level leader, he can't escape today's disaster."

Ma Mingyi's eyes were filled with ferocity. "You think I was brought up by being scared? Ye Quanwen, just wait for me. When we get back to Ningdu, I'll show you how I'll deal with you."

Ye Quanwen smiled miserably and cursed, "Bianjikua, do you still think you can go back to Ningdu? We both have to go to jail, but I will serve fewer years, while you might get shot directly."

It was these words that made Ma Mingyi's heart twitch violently for no reason.

Get shot? You're not going to do it for real, are you?

Ma Mingyi was really a little scared. He suddenly stood up and walked out. He wanted to find a place where no one was around to call his uncle and ask for advice.

What he didn't expect was that there were four fully armed special police soldiers standing on both sides of the corridor of the conference room door.

As soon as he came out, a special police officer stopped him and said, "Leader, the meeting will start soon. Please return to your seat."

"I, I can't even go to the toilet?" Ma Mingyi was completely terrified. The scene before him was something he had never experienced before.

Just then, the elevator door opened and a group of people walked out of the elevator. The tallest and most handsome one among them was Lin Zhiyuan.

Ma Mingyi's eyes happened to meet Lin Zhiyuan's again.

Lin Zhiyuan looked at Ma Mingyi coldly with a blank expression on his face. Ma Mingyi shuddered. Somehow, his usual arrogance disappeared without a trace at this moment.

Ma Mingyi said nothing, turned around and went back to the meeting room. Under the gaze of hundreds of people, Ma Mingyi sat down again in dejection.
