Rebirth of the Rising Sun

After Feng Sizhe finished speaking, the room was silent for a while. The three of them probably thought about the current situation in Ducheng Province, and they were all a little pessimistic. Later, it was Feng Sizhe who suggested drinking, so the three of them temporarily forgot about their troubles at work, and they started drinking again.

After drinking two more cups, Zhang Wenjie stood up, apologized, and went to the bathroom. He had been drinking a lot when Feng Sizhe was here, and now that Duan Yuntao was here, he drank a few more cups, and now he felt a little uncomfortable holding it in.

After Zhang Wenjie left, Feng Sizhe took the time to ask Duan Yuntao, "Do you know Liu Baichuan? What kind of person is he?"

"What's the matter? Did the province hand over the Baichuan Building matter to you?" Duan Yuntao had been handling cases all day, so he was not clear about what happened in the province, but he was not stupid. As soon as he heard Feng Sizhe's words, he guessed something.

"Haha, that's right." Feng Sizhe smiled. He knew very well that the province gave him this matter because they didn't want him to interfere too much in other matters, so they just handed him a burden to carry. If he wanted to start a fight in the capital province, he had to settle this matter first. So what he had to do now was to understand the situation from multiple parties and learn more from different people so that he could make the final and most correct decision.

"Damn it, aren't these guys bullying me? The Baichuan Building incident happened when they were there. You just arrived, why should you be the one to solve it?" Duan Yuntao said very unconvinced.

"Haha, stop complaining. This is how revolutionary work is, only the division of labor is different. As state cadres and party members, all we need to do is to do every task at hand well." Feng Sizhe said with a laugh. He knew Duan Yuntao's personality. He would definitely say whatever he thought. But it was good this way. The situation in the Capital Province required such a background. At the same time, someone with this kind of personality came to stir things up. Without muddy waters, how could one fish in troubled waters?

"Well, I have a high level of awareness, otherwise how could you become the governor before you were 40 years old?" Duan Yuntao was unable to refute after hearing this.

"Haha, that's enough. You don't have to flatter me. Tell me if you have met Liu Baichuan. What is your impression of this person?" Feng Sizhe spoke up again to discuss this topic.

"Yeah." Duan Yuntao also turned serious at this moment, "I have met Liu Baichuan. I once went to talk to him on behalf of the Sichuan Public Security Bureau. I feel that this person is very straightforward and knows how to do things in moderation. Especially when it comes to speaking, he can be said to be very secretive. It seems that there is nothing wrong with him. Oh, by the way, I also heard that he has a good relationship with Boss Ji."

"Big Boss Ji?" Feng Sizhe was stunned for a moment, but then he figured it out. The so-called Big Boss Ji must be Ji Quanyong. It's no wonder. In Ducheng Province, Ji Quanyong's words are like imperial decrees. It's no wonder that others call him that. In fact, it's like this in many provinces. For the SW secretary who can make the final decision, everyone is used to calling them big bosses. It's just that Ducheng is a little strange. The current SW secretary Xu Chaoqi can't get this title. Only Ji Quanyong has this ability.

"Well, in other words, how could an entrepreneur like Liu Baichuan have no connections in the province? If you want to expand your business in the Republic, you have to get involved in political issues. This is also due to the national conditions. I don't think it counts." Duan Yuntao said casually.

Feng Sizhe agreed with these words. The officials of the Republic have great power. They can get their hands on anything they want to control. Absolute power will naturally lead to absolute corruption. As others often say, there is nothing better than being an official, because once you become an official, it will benefit everyone, and all your relatives and friends will benefit.

Of course, this is due to the national conditions and the system, and Feng Sizhe is powerless to change it. What he can do is to do his best first, and as his power expands step by step, he slowly changes provinces and cities, hoping to use his actions to teach others what to do and influence others.

The two were still talking in the room when a loud noise came from outside. It seemed like someone was fighting. Feng Sizhe was stunned for a moment. Duan Yuntao was also unhappy when he saw that the governor was having dinner here and there was a commotion outside. This was obviously saying that he had not done his job well. He immediately stood up and said, "Governor, can I go out and take a look?"

"Well, you should be careful." Feng Sizhe nodded. Since he had encountered this incident, he should go and see what was going on.

"Yeah." Duan Yuntao nodded and walked out, but as soon as he reached the door, he was stunned. It was true that there was a fight, but the one being beaten was Zhang Wenjie who walked out of his room.

It turned out that Zhang Wenjie had drunk too much and was going to the bathroom. Because he was in a hurry, he didn't really look at the road, so he accidentally bumped into someone. Because he was in a hurry, he whispered sorry and went to the bathroom. This was not a big deal, but when Zhang Wenjie came out after using the bathroom, he found that the situation was not so optimistic. There were already four or five people waiting for him at the door of the bathroom.

The man standing in the middle, the one who was bumped by Zhang Wenjie just now, pointed his finger and said angrily, "It was him, he bumped into me just now, damn, my arm still hurts now."

When they heard this man say this, several big men around him walked towards Zhang Wenjie.

Zhang Wenjie was not stupid. He thought to himself that he had encountered a rogue today. But when he thought of his own status, he was not so scared. After all, he was a national cadre at the department level, which meant he was the county party committee and county party committee secretary. So he looked up at those people and said, "What do you want to do? Do you want to bully people in broad daylight? Let me tell you, I am a national cadre. I am from the Construction Department..."

"Jian Nima, beat him up for me." The man who was hit gave the order without waiting for Zhang Wenjie to say anything. Immediately, the men came to Zhang Wenjie and beat him up.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhang Wenjie immediately squatted down and protected his head with his hands. He knew that he had to take the beating, so he had to protect himself as much as possible.

When Duan Yuntao came out, there were already quite a few spectators around. Duan Laoer was tall and sharp-eyed, and he could tell at a glance that the person being beaten was Zhang Wenjie. He immediately shouted, "What are you doing? Beating someone in public, do you have any respect for the law?"

Duan Yuntao's shout immediately attracted everyone's attention. Those who beat people were also stunned when they saw the police coming.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Duan Yunpeng ran over and pulled Zhang Wenjie behind him. No matter what, this man was an old classmate of the governor and now a victim, so he must protect him.

"Oh, who was it? It turns out to be Deputy Director Duan. What? Do you want to meddle in other people's business?" After Duan Yuntao pulled Zhang Wenjie behind him, a voice sounded from the opposite side.

Following the voice, Duan Yunpeng saw a young man. As soon as he saw him, Duan Laoer felt a little overwhelmed, because this person was Mou Wei, the son of Mou Ximing, member of the Standing Committee of the Ducheng Provincial Party Committee and Minister of the Provincial Propaganda Department.

Speaking of Mou Wei, he is somewhat famous in Ducheng Province. Relying on his father's relationship, he is used to bullying others. And because of the special circumstances of Ducheng Province, even if Duan Yuntao came, they would not give him any face.

Now that he knew the other party's identity, Duan Yuntao stood up again. At this time, he naturally could not stand idly by. If he retreated aside now, it would only fuel the arrogance of these people. Besides, Feng Sizhe was still watching him in the box behind him. If he retreated now, how would he face others in the future?

"So it's Mr. Mou. He's my friend, I wonder if you can let it go for my sake." Duan Yuntao still wanted to keep things quiet. Of course, if he had his old temper, he would have slapped him in the face. He was just the son of a provincial propaganda minister, and he didn't really take him seriously in Duan Lao Er's eyes.

But he is not here now. This is Ducheng Province. Mou Wei's father, Mou Ximing, is close to Ji Quanyong. If he gets into trouble with them over such a small matter, he may not be able to continue his job as the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau. Duan Yuntao is not afraid that he will have no future after leaving. With his father being the deputy director Duan Jianghe, it is just a matter of words for him to go anywhere. But he knows that he came to Ducheng Province to help Feng Sizhe this time. If he does something wrong in anger now and leaves, wouldn't he be betraying Young Master Feng's kindness? For this reason, he can only endure it now.

When Mou Wei heard Duan Yuntao say that the person who was given the money was his friend, a trace of difficulty appeared on his face.

Mou Wei and Duan Yuntao were originally two different people. If the latter had not come to work in Ducheng Province, they would probably not have known each other. Mou Wei still remembered that after Duan Yuntao came to Ducheng Province, he and his father were having dinner and he accidentally heard his father say that if there was nothing to do, don't mess with Duan Yuntao because he was the son of Prime Minister Duan and it would be very troublesome if you offended him.

It is for this reason that now that Duan Yuntao has jumped out, Mou Wei has the intention to back out.

But just when Mou Wei was considering whether to let it go, another young man came over from the other side and said, "Haha, what happened to your friend? You can't just let it go if you offend Young Master Mou. Otherwise, won't Young Master Mou be pointed at wherever he goes in the future and won't be able to hold his head up?"
