Chapter 2790 The Advantages of Young People

"Sit down, sit down and we'll talk." Hong Yongliang smiled and gestured for Qin Feng to sit down.

Qin Feng felt a little uneasy, but sat down as instructed.

"Yes, you were indeed a bit too radical yesterday, and I have to criticize you for that," Hong Yongliang said after Qin Feng sat down. Although it was called criticism, it didn't carry any real meaning.

"Gansu and Liangzhou provinces have already given a perfect conclusion regarding Comrade Qi Yaqiu's cause of death: it was a car accident. This has been determined and the case is closed. Only a few of us have doubts about this cause of death."

“You understand, Gansu Province has already classified it as a car accident. Now you’re saying it was murder. What does that mean? And you don’t have any solid evidence to show for it.”

"Qi Yaqiu's death involves the overall situation of the entire Ganliang Province. If the conclusion that it was a car accident is overturned, it means that many people will lose their official positions and many people will go to prison. It will bring an earthquake to the entire Ganliang Province and affect the stability of the entire province. This is a major event, a matter of utmost importance."

“For the leaders above, the stability of Gansu Province is far more important than the cause of death of a person who has already died, and even more important than you, the mayor. Do you now realize how dangerous it was for you to say those words last night?” Hong Yongliang said.

Hong Yongliang's words were much more direct than Hu Guangxiang's, which made Qin Feng understand more intuitively why they had warned him not to speak carelessly from the beginning, and made Qin Feng realize how rash and reckless his actions last night had been.

"Because we were worried about these things, we never dared to report to our superiors about the death of Comrade Qi Yaqiu or the problems in Shazhou and Ganliang Province. We just hoped to do the specific work first and wait for the right time to report to the leaders, so as to solve the problems of the entire Ganliang Province in one fell swoop."

"But it is precisely because we worry too much and are always very cautious in our work that we encounter more difficulties and obstacles, and our progress is very slow."

“And last night you said everything we’ve never dared to say. To be honest, I was angry and worried when you said it, but after you finished, I felt completely relieved. Because no matter what the final result is, you’ve done something we’ve never dared to do.” Hong Yongliang personally poured Qin Feng a cup of tea, and Qin Feng was flattered and quickly thanked him.

"Minister, what was the big boss's attitude after I finished speaking?" Qin Feng asked hurriedly.

In fact, Hu Guangxiang had already subtly conveyed Qin Feng's attitude last night. Although Hu Guangxiang did not say it explicitly, he at least told Qin Feng that the boss was not angry.

However, Qin Feng still wanted to know what the big boss's attitude was after hearing his words, because it concerned the situation of the entire sandbar.

"Why did you tell the big boss the real cause of Qi Yaqiu's death? What kind of attitude do you hope the big boss will have?" Hong Yongliang asked Qin Feng with a smile, keeping him in suspense.

"I hope the big boss can pay attention to the case of Qi Yaqiu's accidental death, so as to discover and take seriously the problems existing in Gansu and Liangshan provinces," Qin Feng said truthfully.

“You bet right, and you achieved your goal.” Hong Yongliang laughed.

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng became excited: "Really?"

“When we were selecting people to go to Shazhou, both Secretary Hu and Comrade Hongjian suggested that we give more opportunities to young people. They both agreed that young people are enterprising and dare to do many things that we dare not do, so young people can accomplish many things that we cannot do.”

"Actually, I disagreed with their opinions at first, or rather, I had doubts. In my view, young people lack experience in struggle, and are impetuous, unstable, and prone to making mistakes."

"But judging from what happened last night, I was wrong. Young people have their disadvantages, but they also have their advantages."

"If it weren't for your impulsiveness, things would still be going according to our old guys' plan, and who knows how long it would have dragged on. But now, because of you, the whole thing has started to speed up."

"So, using young people is risky, but it can also yield unexpected rewards. I'm becoming more and more convinced that transferring you to Shazhou was the right decision," Hong Yongliang said with a smile.

"So Qin Feng, you don't need to apologize to me. On the contrary, I should thank you."

"Because last night you recklessly exposed the truth about Qi Yaqiu's death to the big boss, you broke the ice in front of him and now the big boss is furious."

"I can't tell you the specific instructions from the big boss, but I can tell you two things. First, the big boss wants us to thoroughly reinvestigate the Qi Yaqiu death case. If it is found that Qi Yaqiu was indeed murdered, then the murderer must be brought to justice, and the relevant responsible persons must be held accountable. No matter who is involved, we must investigate to the end."

"The big boss's attitude exceeded our expectations. I didn't expect the big boss to care so much about Qi Yaqiu's death case, nor did I expect him to make such a big decision."

"With the support of the big boss, we have no worries and can do things boldly."

"However, under the current circumstances, the investigation into the Qi Yaqiu case can only be carried out in secret, and this matter can only be entrusted to you."

“After discussing it last night, we all agreed on this point. Comrade Zhao Hongjian will fully support you on this point. We must obtain conclusive evidence that Comrade Qi Yaqiu died from murder rather than an accident as soon as possible.”

“As long as we get solid evidence, we can demand that the relevant authorities thoroughly reinvestigate Qi Yaqiu’s death. We have the support of a big boss behind us, you know what that means.” Hong Yongliang started to get excited as he said this.

Qin Feng nodded quickly, even more excited than Hong Yongliang.

"The second thing, I can't go into too much detail, but I can mention it briefly, which will give you more confidence. I have always hoped to continue to adjust some leadership positions in Gansu and Liangshan provinces, but there are many difficulties and great resistance. The leaders are very cautious about this matter."

“But last night the big boss made it clear that he supports my proposal and will consider making personnel adjustments in Gansu and Liangshan provinces,” Hong Yongliang said with a smile.

Hong Yongliang did not make things clear. He did not tell Qin Feng which position was to be adjusted, who was to be adjusted, or even when the adjustment would take place. Even the big boss's answer was only that he would consider it.

But since Hong Yongliang is so excited, it means that this matter is a done deal, and it will definitely be in Qin Feng's favor.

If this is the case, it means that Zhao Hongjian's faction will soon increase its strength in Gansu and Liangzhou provinces, and Qin Feng's passive situation in Gansu and Liangzhou provinces will further improve.
