Chapter 1341: Waves in the Heart
New Year's Day.
Originally, Li Dong was going to be on duty at the company today.
However, Yuan Chengdao took the initiative to suggest that he just go to the company to be on duty, which gave Li Dong a chance to sleep in.
When I woke up, it was almost 9 o'clock.
The family members subconsciously lowered their voices, knowing that Li Dong had been busy for a year and had a rare rest, and no one made any noise.
Even the young Shitou knew that his uncle was going to sleep, so he obediently played with Cao Feng's little brother early in the morning without disturbing Li Dong.
When Li Dong walked out of the room, Xiao Shitou cheered and ran into Li Dong's arms, wriggling his little buttocks.
Li Dong happily pinched the little girl's chubby face, and said with a little emotion: "I will start elementary school in the second half of the year, and in the blink of an eye, I will grow up.
Shitou goes to elementary school, Xiao Yu goes to junior high school, and Lan Lan will be in her third year of high school in the second half of the year.
In a few years, Liangliang should go to school. "
Cao Fang, who was preparing breakfast for him, couldn't help laughing and said, "In a few years, my grandson will have to go to school."
Li Dong said helplessly: "Your grandson hasn't been seen yet, so you have arranged for him to go to school."
"Then give birth to one earlier, and help take care of it while Mom can still move."
"Mom, you're not even in your fifties, and you're still middle-aged. What's the rush?"
"Can you be in a hurry..."
The mother and son were chatting when the doorbell rang.
Li Chengyuan, who was basking in the sun on the balcony, came out hurriedly when he heard the doorbell ring, "Is Li Qing here?"
Cao Fang rolled her eyes, and motioned to Li Dong, "Look, let me tell you, your dad is in a hurry.
Li Dong laughed, and took the initiative to open the door.
When the door opened, Li Dong couldn't help laughing and said, "Why are you here, kid?"
"Come to pay New Year's greetings to the big boss, otherwise what will you do if you wear small shoes for me.
Now I have started to wear small shoes for me. This year has not passed yet, but I know that you are going to send me to the capital.
Look how old my son is,
Can you bear it? "
Wang Jie made a joke, and then greeted everyone in the room: "Uncle Li, Auntie, I'm here to give you New Year greetings."
Seeing that it was Wang Jie who came, Cao Fang hurriedly said, "Come in, is Xiaomei here? Has my grandson brought it?"
"They're all here."
"Auntie, I'm here." Wu Mei greeted behind her, and then smiled at the little boy in her arms: "Call grandpa, grandma, and godfather, and you won't be able to call anyone anymore."
The little boy's eyes were bright, and when he heard the words, his dark eyes rolled up, and he said in a milky voice, "Grandpa, grandma, godfather!"
Li Dong patted his head with a smile, and said helplessly: "Others have recognized a lot of goddaughters, but I'm lucky, goddaughters can't talk yet, and getting a godson always feels like a loss."
Wang Jie was speechless, Cao Fang couldn't help laughing and cursing, and hugged the child from Wu Mei's arms.
As Li Dong's high school classmate, he is also the only high school classmate who was taken into a distant place by Li Dong.
In addition, Wang Jie and Cao Fang were no strangers to Cao Fang when they ran a stall in the vegetable market, and they often came to visit them.
Moreover, Li Dong also recognized Wang Jie's son as his godson, and the relationship became closer.
Wang Jie and his wife chatted with everyone for a while, after a while, Wang Jie looked at Li Dong and said, "Go down and smoke a cigarette, let's chat for a while."
Li Dong raised his eyebrows and said, "Didn't you quit smoking?"
Wang Jie smiled and said: "It's Chinese New Year, relax for a while, let's go, go down for a walk, don't be an otaku all day long.
I didn’t stay at home in high school before, but now it’s my home besides the company. "
"Don't talk about me, you're not the same."
Li Dong smiled, got up, put on his coat, and went downstairs with Wang Jie.
...
downstairs.
The two lit their cigarettes and took a few puffs. Li Dong asked, "What's the matter?"
"Um."
"Going to the capital? If you really don't want to go, you can stay. I'll let Lao Zhou go, and you sit here..."
Wang Jie waved his hand and said: "It's not about this, I don't care if I go to the capital, just change the environment by the way.
Anyway, I'm also an executive. If I go over there, can you make arrangements for me?
I took Wu Mei and the children there, and I will be back in a few years at most. The capital is much more prosperous than Pingchuan, so I can't wait for it. "
Seeing this, Li Dong frowned slightly, and said after a while: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Wang Jie pondered for a moment before saying: "I'm actually not too sure, if it were someone else, I wouldn't do guesswork.
But about our relationship, even if I guess, I have to mention it to you. "
Li Dong's face became serious. Wang Jie's job is not an ordinary job. He is the deputy director of the Ministry of Supervision.
What he wants to say is very likely to be related to this.
But what makes Wang Jie hesitate and what is serious is probably not an ordinary thing.
Thinking of this, Li Dong looked around and said, "Go, find a place to sit and talk slowly."
Wang Jie nodded and followed Li Dong out.
...
Ten minutes later, one of the few coffee shops still open on the street.
Li Dong said in a deep voice: "Tell me, who is wrong?"
Wang Jie hesitated to speak, and said after a long while: "Let me explain first, I am just guessing, there is no conclusive evidence.
Don't be angry..."
"Fuck off, don't go around in circles with me, go straight to the point!"
Li Dong scolded, and said angrily: "Whether I am angry or not, don't play around with me, there is nothing I, Li Dong, can't bear!
Even if Yuan Chengdao falls, I can bear it! "
Wang Jie sighed and said, "It's more terrifying than Mr. Yuan being planted."
"What's the meaning!"
"Minister Zhou, there may be some problems..." Wang Jie whispered.
"Crap!"
Li Dong immediately scolded, which attracted the attention of the waiter in the coffee shop.
Wang Jie quickly said: "Keep your voice down, you think others don't know you."
Li Dong took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Go ahead, you said Lao Zhou has a problem? What do you base your judgment on?
Also, Lao Zhou has been with me for so long, he knows my character, and I don't think I have treated him badly.
He is now the director of the group, the minister of supervision, and has a high position and authority. If something goes wrong with him, then I, Li Dong, will fail!
I don't quite believe it, it means that you and I are classmates and my brother, otherwise, I suspect that you want to be the leader.
You boy, I won’t make it clear today, I will throw you in the capital for ten years, and I won’t let you bring your family..."
Wang Jie didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said helplessly: "Okay, don't interrupt, since I came to you, there must be a reason.
Otherwise, I don't want to talk about it.
You listen to me first, and then you judge for yourself. "
"you say."
"I have been in the Ministry of Supervision for several years. To be honest, Minister Zhou is a very good person and takes good care of me.
When you asked me to take over the position of minister, Minister Zhou almost gave me all the power without saying a word.
I can see that he is sincere, and he even wants to go back and continue driving for you.
In the past few years, Minister Zhou has worked hard, and he is afraid that he will fail your expectations. Moreover, he knows that he is not well-educated, and he has been studying by himself all the time. I often see him taking time to read in the office.
There are also a lot of books in his home and study. I can tell that he is not pretending, but is really serious about reading them.
To Minister Zhou, I am serious, I admire him very much.
Can……"
Li Dong's complexion changed, and he said in a deep voice, "Continue!"
Wang Jie said softly: "It was always fine before, and I didn't think about anything else.
But in the past six months, something has gone wrong with the Ministry of Supervision.
I don't know if you have found out?
Since the general manager of Gan Province had a problem, no one in the entire group, the management above level 6, has had an accident. "
"Isn't this normal? Killing chickens to make an example to monkeys, everyone knows my character, Li Dong, who would dare to do it again?"
"Dongzi, this is an enterprise with more than 200,000 people!
It's no different than a small city.
Can you guarantee that, in a city's governing body, none of the top leaders have problems?
In the past, it's not that you haven't killed chickens to scare monkeys, but there are always people who take risks.
Even if there are no major problems, there are still small problems one after another.
But in the past half a year or so, not to mention the big problems, the small problems have suddenly decreased. Below level 6, it is not surprising that there are fewer, but above level 6, it seems that they have figured it out suddenly, and they are all frightened by you.
For half a year, except for a few internal reports of criticism, no one had any major problems.
Of course, this is a good thing. In fact, I didn't think much about it at first, and I was overwhelmed by you. It's a normal thing. I think the same as you.
But not long ago, the Ministry of Supervision went down to make an unannounced visit, and obviously I heard the wind that someone had a problem.
Even the unannounced visit team said something about it in general.
But when the unannounced visit team came back, it didn't take long for the object of the unannounced visit to settle down.
According to the materials submitted by the person in charge, it is said that it is nothing and there is no problem.
At first, I really didn't care, after all, this mess is out of my control.
But while you were in the capital, I happened to have a case related to what happened last time, and I wanted to check the information.
We have some internal information that is highly confidential, and the cases that have been investigated and the cases with proven foundations are all there.
But when I checked the information, I suddenly found that the information about the previous case was gone!
The confidentiality of the data room is very high, and it is impossible to steal or lose it.
But the filing information about this case just disappeared out of thin air!
Of course, it's not all of them disappearing, but some key things are missing. If it were someone else, they might not care too much.
Moreover, in the past cases, we generally do not conduct a second inspection. If we really need to investigate, then there are too many things, and we are too busy.
This time is also a coincidence, the case in my hand has something to do with this, it doesn't matter if you don't read the information from last time.
It doesn't matter if you don't have this information.
But I just remembered this, so I wanted to check it out..."
After Wang Jie explained for a while, Li Dong calmly said, "Even if you really lost it, it's not enough to make you doubt Lao Zhou, right?
Although the probability of this kind of thing happening is small, but if there is something missing in the reference room, I think it is understandable.
Moreover, the high degree of secrecy does not mean that you can contact Lao Zhou, and there should be many people you can contact. Why do you suspect that something is wrong with Lao Zhou? "
Wang Jie licked his lips and said: "Yes, I didn't think about Minister Zhou at first, I just thought I couldn't find it.
But as a coincidence, I started another case to see if there was a connection, and guess what?
It's not that it's gone, but that the information has been tampered with.
Still the same sentence, other people may not care about it, but I am not an ordinary person, my memory is not bad, and I have come into contact with that case myself, so I have a little impression.
Some keywords are missing, such as the detailed information of the reporter, such as some details on the account when checking at the time.
These problems are actually not big, otherwise, they would have been dealt with long ago.
It stands to reason that it doesn't matter whether the information is changed or not.
Unless there will be a second violation in the future, we will continue to investigate the data for review and investigate the previous responsibilities.
However, the information was tampered with!
I became suspicious, so I made my own decision, checked the previous case, and finally found out that the one who was only reported and criticized before, the matter was not small, and some things were covered up.
It's not that we don't pursue it at all, but that big things are made small, and some things are downplayed.
But there are not many people in the Ministry of Supervision who can do this.
Minister Zhou counts as one, I count as one, and there are three or four senior executives, as well as the person in charge of the specific case.
I checked carefully and found that the person who handled the case at that time was a supervisor trained by Minister Zhou himself.
At first I thought it was his own idea, but as I followed up and investigated further, I found that some of the cases he handled were handed over to him at the behest of Minister Zhou.
And the ending is pretty much the same, it's all been deliberately downplayed..."
Wang Jie continued, but Li Dong frowned and said, "It's like a spy war. After all, there is still no conclusive evidence to prove what Lao Zhou did, right?"
Wang Jie nodded and said: "No, I said it, it's just my guess.
And in fact, I am also very puzzled, Minister Zhou should have no reason to do this.
Is he short of money?
None of us knows the high salaries of board members. With an annual salary of tens of millions, can the people below give him this kind of treatment?
Moreover, Minister Zhou was born in the army, he even drove a car for you, and worked as a bodyguard. Everyone knows that he is your confidant.
As long as you don't drive him away, after ten or eight years, Minister Zhou can be considered a moderately wealthy class.
Is it worth it to lose your trust and position for that little money?
I've thought about it many times, and I don't think it's worth it.
But the thing happened, and Minister Zhou was very suspicious. At least 3 managers above level 6 were deliberately ignored and let go.
We handle this level of management very carefully, and discuss it as a major issue every time, and ordinary people cannot deliberately ignore and ignore it.
Even for me, it is very difficult to protect anyone.
The only one who can do all this quietly is Minister Zhou, because the Ministry of Supervision has a lot of authority, Minister Zhou is the highest person in charge, and only he has the power and ability to do all this. "
After Wang Jie finished speaking, he exhaled and said: "All this is my own judgment, maybe there is a real misunderstanding.
But even if it was a misunderstanding, I still said, you can judge for yourself.
I feel uncomfortable holding this matter in my heart. If you can figure out the whole story, I will be more relaxed. "
Li Dong didn't speak, he slowly stirred the spoon, and after a while he said: "I know about this, you don't have to worry about it anymore.
Let's go, go back to eat, my mother and the others are waiting anxiously. "
Wang Jie didn't ask anymore, he didn't want to care what Li Dong would do.
Even if Li Dong really let go, regardless of this matter, Wang Jie thinks it is understandable.
Old Zhou was brought out by him, just like Tan Yong, who worked for Li Dong back then.
Before Tan Yong came out, Zhou Haidong was also loyal to Li Dong.
If not, how could Li Dong promote him as the Minister of Supervision.
It was because of trust, the trust from the bottom of his heart, that Li Dong made such a choice.
And Zhou Haidong did not disappoint Li Dong. Since the establishment of the Supervision Department, some internal conflicts on Yuanfang Group's side have suddenly decreased, and at least hundreds of millions of expenses have been reduced every year.
As a large group, the annual expenditure is also astronomical.
With a little thought, it is not impossible to hide hundreds of thousands of millions of changes.
On the other hand, the Ministry of Supervision is like a big net, keeping everyone's every move under the net.
In addition, Zhou Haidong did exactly the same thing as Li Dong, and acted swiftly and resolutely. During his tenure, corruption and dereliction of duty within the group rarely occurred.
In the past few years, the most important thing is that the general manager of Gan Province was investigated last time, and this was also discovered by Zhou Haidong, otherwise, Li Dong would not know.
Now, Wang Jie told Li Dong that Lao Zhou might have a problem.
Li Dong's first reaction was to not believe it.
However, not believing, does not mean that there will be no disturbances in the heart, and no one can remain indifferent.
The more you believe, the more you will be heartbroken and hopeless if you betray.
...
During lunch, there were more people in the Li family.
Li Qing and Yao Bo rushed over together, and together with Wang Jie's family of three, there was not enough room for so many people at one table.
After eating, Li Dong leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes for a rest, without talking with others.
Cao Fang glanced at him, then asked Wang Jie in a low voice, "Ajie, is Dongzi okay?"
Wang Jie shook his head and said: "It's okay, the big wind and the big waves are coming, and a small matter will be dealt with quickly."
"That's good."
Cao Fang complained a little while talking: "It must be your kid who told him, what do you do when you mention work when you are a Chinese New Year?"
Wang Jie said pitifully: "Auntie, I don't want to, but Dongzi insists on transferring me to the capital, and I have to leave the day after tomorrow, so I don't have time to talk to him.
Do you think Dongzi is cruel? You are only in the third year of junior high school, so just drive me away..."
When Cao Fang heard this, she laughed immediately, thought for a while and said, "Then why don't you tell Dongzi, the child is only so old..."
"I'm joking with you, Auntie, don't ruin my future. I will go to the capital this time, and if I come back again, I will be qualified and become a serious senior manager. This is a good thing."
"That's good, Dongzi doesn't have many friends, you should help him more..."
While Cao Fang was talking, Li Dong who closed his eyes for a nap suddenly got up and said, "Mom, I'll go out for a while, if you don't come back for dinner, you don't have to wait for me."
"It's only the first day of the new year, and you're busy?" Cao Fang said slightly dissatisfied.
Li Dong said with a smile: "No, I'm meeting a friend, I'll go first, and try to come back for dinner."
"Then come back early."
"knew."
Li Dong put on his coat, seeing that Wang Jie was about to get up, he pressed his hands and said, "Take my son here to talk to my parents, and have dinner here tonight."
"and you……"
Wang Jie wanted to ask a question, but he stopped talking, nodded and said nothing.
