Rebirth of Minister Qi

Chapter 823 Goodbye Hou Liangping

"It's only one million acres. Handong Province only has 500,000 acres."

Qi Tongwei shook his head as he looked at them. Where did these experts come from? They must have received public relations fees from local officials. How could they be so optimistic? You know, according to Qi Tongwei's memory, a real investigation was conducted in later generations, and after many rounds of negotiations between the central government and local governments, it was found that 3 million mu of arable land in Zhongjiang Province had been occupied, and at least 1 million mu of arable land in Handong Province had been occupied. In the end, the land could not be recovered, so were they going to blow up those already built enterprises and houses?

It is totally unrealistic. After several inspections from above, some confusion from below, and several punishments on lower-level officials, they were able to replenish more than one million mu of arable land. There was really no other way, so the central government finally forced some inland provinces to reclaim wasteland to fill the red line.

In other words, Zhong Zhengguo ran fast and was promoted to a good position early, so he was not held accountable. However, the leaders of the Zhongjiang Provincial Committee who came after him, each time they took office, the first thing they faced was the issue of the red line of cultivated land. Every leadership term was overwhelmed and failed to do their job well.

Qi Tongwei was still reviewing documents when Lu Qiang suddenly walked in.

"Leader, Deputy Chief Prosecutor Qin from the Supreme People's Procuratorate just called and wanted to meet with you to discuss the sentencing and prosecution of several people from the Grain Bureau."

Qi Tongwei raised his head and closed the internal reference.

"They finished their evidence search so quickly?"

Prosecutor General Qin is the director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau and also serves as the deputy prosecutor general. Do you remember him? He is the leader of Hou Liangping.

You know, these corrupt officials have a lot of assets, including real estate and villas in major cities across the country, various types of expensive tobacco and alcohol such as Moutai, gold bars and antiques, which make their valuation and disposal quite troublesome.

(It seems that Qi Tongwei has no right to criticize others. He owns more than 20 houses within the Third Ring Road of Beijing.)

This group of cadres had committed other crimes and violated disciplines when they were in charge of the local grain bureau in the past. It was a tedious investigation, and in just over a month, we have basically completed the investigation.

However, the other party was invited by the deputy prosecutor. Although there was a difference of one level in rank, they were both deputy positions in the unit. The two units were also brother units that often cooperated in work, so it was reasonable for Qi Tongwei to come forward.

Another very important point is that several directors of the subordinate supervisory offices are on business trips. Otherwise, it would be most appropriate for the directors of the subordinate supervisory offices to discuss the details with the procuratorate and then report to Qi Tongwei for the decision. At this time, Qi Tongwei, the commander without troops, had to take action himself.

"Let's go, take the officers from the Legal Affairs Department with you."

Naturally, Lu Qiang, the old secretary, had already arranged these things.

"They are already waiting at the door."

Qi Tongwei skillfully locked up the important documents, then patted his butt and got up to leave. There was no need to be too anxious, as the meeting place would definitely be in the Discipline Inspection Commission building, because the Discipline Inspection Commission was a powerful department, and Qi Tongwei was at a high level, so it was impossible for him to condescend to meet at the Procuratorate.

In the meeting room of the Discipline Inspection Commission, Qi Tongwei walked over slowly. Chief Prosecutor Qin had been standing in the meeting room waiting. When he saw Qi Tongwei and his group pushing the door in, he immediately stepped forward and stretched out his hands to hold Qi Tongwei's right hand.

"Deputy Secretary Qi, long time no see. I didn't expect you to come in person."

There is a difference in rank between the two people. In addition, the Discipline Inspection Commission is much more powerful than the Procuratorate. Chief Prosecutor Qin treated Qi Tongwei completely as a subordinate. Everyone present was used to it. Only Deputy Secretary Qi was a little young, but the one who is more capable comes first.

Qi Tongwei shook hands with Prosecutor Qin and responded with a smile.

"Didn't we meet at the conference last month?

Several directors here have important responsibilities and are all on business trips. It's time for me, a free man, to step in and play my role.

Why did Chief Prosecutor Qin come here in person? If there is anything, just let the cadres of the Law and Regulations Department discuss it. It's a pity to come here in person. It's a pity to come here in person. "

Qi Tongwei is the leader, so how could Chief Prosecutor Qin dare to be so arrogant?

"I can't make any decisions on some cases right now, so I have to ask Deputy Secretary Qi for instructions."

As soon as the two men shook hands, Qi Tongwei saw Lu Yi at a glance. No, it was Hou Liangping. It seemed that this guy was highly valued by Chief Prosecutor Qin. He was brought to such a high-level meeting. Hou Liangping was an investigator of the Anti-Corruption Bureau, not a cadre of the Legal Affairs Department, nor a secretary. There was no need to bring him here according to the procedures.

Not necessarily. Maybe he knew that Hou Liangping and Qi Tongwei were alumni, so he wanted to bring him here to show his face. It would have been fine if they hadn't met, but when they met, Qi Tongwei remembered the last time Hou Liangping saw him in his previous life. He wanted to avenge the grudges and hatred when he had the chance.

If Hou Liangping has committed any illegal or disciplinary violations, he should be sent to prison. If he has not committed any illegal acts, with Hou Liangping's privileged mind, he must have done a lot of illegal things. Sending him to the frontier for training is also for his own good.

"Chief Prosecutor Qin, who is this? Hou Liangping!"

Qi Tongwei pointed at Hou Liangping and pretended to be happy and said that Hou Liangping was not as awesome as he was in his previous life. This was because the gap between the two of them was so big that it could not be balanced by competing with one's father or father-in-law.

Qi Tongwei's current rank is the same as Hou Liangping's father-in-law, and he holds the power of life and death. Last time, Zhong Xiaoai said that her senior classmate asked her to go home, but she was criticized by Zhong Zhengguo.

Qi Tongwei took the initiative to extend his right hand. Hou Liangping was much more obedient at this time. He bent down obediently and stretched out his hands to shake hands with Qi Tongwei. Even his leader, Chief Prosecutor Qin, had to act like a subordinate. How great could he, a deputy director-level investigator, be?

"Deputy Secretary Qi, I haven't seen you for more than ten years."

Qi Tongwei patted Hou Liangping on the shoulder and turned to speak to Chief Prosecutor Qin.

"Liang Ping was my junior back then. I was a graduate student at Handong University of Political Science and Law, and Liang Ping was a junior or sophomore. In the end, I recommended him to the student union.

That should have been 1991, and it’s been years now, a full years.”

To other people, this was just Qi Tongwei catching up with his old schoolmate. However, Chief Prosecutor Qin was an old fox and understood the hidden meaning of Qi Tongwei's words. Not to mention that this was said to Chief Prosecutor Qin. What he meant was that an alumnus whom he hadn't seen for 20 years was nothing to him and there was no point in bringing him here.

This is the difference in status and the ability gained from experience. Hou Liangping and the others didn't sense Qi Tongwei's intention at all and were still laughing foolishly.

"Yes, Vice Secretary Qi, you were the one who brought me into the Student Union. After you graduated, Teacher Gao Yuliang nominated me to take over as the President of the Student Union."
