Chapter 2949 This Temple in Gansu and Liangzhou Province
“Yunpeng, let me give you another analogy. The entire Ganliang Province is like a temple. This temple has been in disrepair for many years, leaks air everywhere, and is infested with insects and ants. The beams and pillars of the entire temple have been corroded and riddled with holes.”
"The Yang family is the termites that cling to these pillars. These termites have corroded the pillars so much that they are riddled with holes, which has made the entire temple precarious and it could collapse at any moment."
“We need to protect this temple now. We can’t just burn the termites in these pillars without thinking. If we burn the termites, the pillars will break, and the temple will collapse. Not only will we be crushed to death, but everyone else in the temple will also be crushed to death. So they won’t allow us to burn the Yang family’s termites. The higher-ups won’t allow us to do that either.”
"There is only one solution: first, add new support pillars to the temple to support it, and then remove the old pillars that have been corroded by termites."
"The dismantled pillar can only be used as firewood, and the termites inside will naturally be burned to death. So you need to understand, the key to the problem is not dealing with these termites, but this pillar. That's why I said the key to the problem is not the sandbar, but the province; the key is not the Yang family, but the power behind the Yang family. As long as the power behind the Yang family falls, the Yang family will be destroyed effortlessly."
"So now we have to wait until the higher-ups rebuild the pillars for this temple in Ganliang, and then completely tear down the old pillars. Then we'll burn the pillars and the Yang family's termites together in one fire, understand?" Qin Feng said with a smile.
"Then...when will the new pillar arrive?" Jiang Yunpeng asked.
“The new pillars arrived a while ago. Qi Yaqiu is a new pillar that was erected by the higher-ups, as are I and Secretary Zhao. However, Qi Yaqiu’s pillar was chewed through by termites. The pillars that Secretary Zhao and I are supporting are not enough to bear the weight of the entire Ganliang Temple. We need other pillars, especially the most important main beam. Once the main beam arrives, the old pillars will have to be dismantled,” Qin Feng continued to explain.
Qin Feng had to explain everything clearly to Jiang Yunpeng. Only in this way would Jiang Yunpeng, the person actually in charge, know exactly how to do it and how to control the heat.
Qin Feng only said these words to Jiang Yunpeng; he didn't mention them to Chen Guohua or Feng Changjun.
In Shazhou, Qin Feng trusted Chen Guohua and Jiang Yunpeng the most.
Jiang Yunpeng stayed in Qin Feng's office for a long time, a full forty minutes.
Zhang Xinming kept an eye on Qin Feng's office door from the outside. He was surprised that Qin Feng would talk to Jiang Yunpeng for so long, which was very unusual.
After Jiang Yunpeng left, Zhang Xinming hurriedly went into Qin Feng's office.
"The Provincial Party Committee called, requesting you to attend a research meeting on the safety production accident at the sports center construction project in half an hour. At the same time, the Provincial Government sent a letter requiring our Shazhou Municipal Government to handle the aftermath of the fire properly. The province will set up an investigation team to investigate the details of this fire and expressed strong dissatisfaction with the work of our Shazhou Municipal Government. The documents are with the Secretary-General, who will personally deliver them later..." Zhang Xinming reported to Qin Feng one by one the information he had received during the conversation between Qin Feng and Jiang Yunpeng.
Qin Feng listened attentively, without anger, because he was not surprised at all. All of this was within his expectations. Whether it was the municipal party committee or the province, the purpose of these actions was only one: to make the nature of the fire at the sports center seem serious. This was to pave the way for making a big deal out of this incident later and targeting Qin Feng.
Qin Feng thought that they must have originally classified this matter as more serious, because they must have initially thought that something big would happen, at least a few people would die. Once people died, they could have expanded the situation indefinitely and classified it as the most serious. But what they didn't expect was that no one died.
Although they are still trying to classify this as a serious workplace safety accident, they are clearly lacking in confidence.
Of course, this did not prevent them from using this incident as an excuse to further promote Huayang Group.
"Do you have any specific details about the fire? Has the fire been extinguished?" Qin Feng asked Zhang Xinming.
"We just received a report that the fire has been extinguished, and the two injured people at the hospital are out of danger and in good condition. The fire scene is currently undergoing cleanup operations. Mayor Yuanwei is organizing relevant municipal government departments to investigate the cause of the fire, and has also arranged for a professional agency to conduct a safety assessment of the project..."
Qin Feng leaned back in his chair, smoking a cigarette as he listened to Zhang Xinming's report.
Qin Feng was neither concerned nor worried about the aftermath of the fire at the sports center, because Sun Yuanwei was there. Sun Yuanwei was not only experienced but also highly capable, and Qin Feng was very reassured that Sun Yuanwei was handling these matters.
Qin Feng knew that what he really needed to consider was the provincial investigation team and Jiang Longjun's request for him to attend a meeting at the municipal party committee. What he needed to worry about even more was Jiang Yunpeng's operation that night. For Qin Feng, this was the real battle of life and death.
Although he spoke eloquently to Jiang Yunpeng, it was unpredictable what the Yang family would do after he took this step, how Jiang Longjun would react, and what the forces in the province would think. If one side did not act according to Qin Feng's plan, the matter could be blown out of proportion. The Gansu-Liangzhou province might not necessarily collapse, but the small house in Shazhou would definitely crumble. In that case, Qin Feng, the "culprit," would naturally be the first to be dealt with.
Qin Feng hadn't gambled like this in a long time. As his official rank rose, his gambling instincts diminished. But this time, he embarked on the path of gambling again, only this time he was gambling with his political future, whereas before he was gambling with his life.
The gamble is on the future of Shazhou, and the future of Ganliang Province.
As the report was being given, Chen Guohua hurried over, knocked on the door, and came in.
"Mayor, the municipal party committee has ordered the Public Security Bureau to immediately arrest Meng Dan and other relevant personnel from Huayang Group," Chen Guohua said to Qin Feng.
Qin Feng was stunned when he heard this. Jiang Longjun was now determined to make a big deal out of this and wasn't even going to pretend anymore.
In the event of a work safety accident, it is normal to detain the person in charge of the production unit immediately. However, the problem is that it is unreasonable for the municipal party committee to directly order the public security bureau to arrest people, bypassing the municipal government. Moreover, they were about to go to a meeting to discuss the matter, but Jiang Longjun requested the arrest in advance, instead of deciding on the matter after the meeting. It is clear that he did not give Qin Feng a chance to object.
"Has the order been sent to the Public Security Bureau?" Qin Feng asked.
"Not yet, but it should be around this time. I came here as soon as I received the news from the municipal party committee. The order was personally given by Jiang Longjun," Chen Guohua replied.
