134: Chapter 134 Police Station Intervention

Ning Jie pictured the deputy station chief disobeying Ding Jun, followed by Ding Jun coming to Sun Ning to pour out his grievances.

Sun Ning thought about transferring this deputy station chief away for a period of time to first help Ding Jun stabilize the situation.

Thinking of this, Ning Jie understood.

"Little brother, the County Bureau is too close. It just so happens that the Provincial Department is holding a training class for grassroots Police Stations, and I'll make the call to give you a spot."

"Thanks, big brother. Later, I'll have Secretary Li treat us to a meal."

Although Sun Ning was not afraid of alerting the enemy, he still appreciated Ning Jie's good intentions.

Ever since Vice Mayor Wang Pingan was transferred to Gongfan County.

As the chief of the County Bureau, Ning Jie felt like a duckweed without roots.

Although Secretary Wang Shengli did not reassign him this time, he did install Zhu Zihao as the deputy chief in charge of criminal investigation.

This was not a good sign.

He was neither a deputy county mayor concurrently serving as the chief, nor was he the chief concurrently serving as the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission.

The difference in status was immense.

He did not have the courage to resist Secretary Wang Shengli.

Therefore, he had been frequently leaning towards Secretary Wang Shengli recently.

However, Secretary Wang Shengli had not yet made his stance known.

Now, Sun Ning was actually saying he would have Secretary Li Chengping treat them both to a meal.

You, a county mayor's assistant at the regular section level, are so impressive—is your standing even higher than mine as a deputy county mayor?

It actually was.

As a former loyal subordinate of Vice Mayor Wang Pingan, he was one of the few people in Gongfan County who knew how Secretary Wang Shengli became the Party Secretary.

Therefore, he would definitely grasp at the olive branch Sun Ning was extending.

"It's a deal then. It's really not easy to get a meal with Secretary Li."

Was this a question of who was paying for the meal?

It was a question of who you were eating with, so Ning Jie didn't bother with polite remarks like 'my treat'.

The lowest-ranking official here was a deputy director of the County Party Committee Office; would they be short on the money for a meal?

After hanging up the phone, Sun Ning dialed Ding Jun.

"Come to the Township Government to see me in thirty minutes."

He didn't say anything else.

The reason he didn't hide it from Zhang Pengfei was mainly because Liu Deli hadn't hidden it from Zhang Pengfei when he spoke.

As long as one wasn't an idiot, they should know he would handle it.

That was why he made this call without hiding it from Zhang Pengfei.

Furthermore, Zhang Pengfei wasn't involved in this matter.

It wasn't that Zhang Pengfei had colluded with Du Laosan to fabricate quotas, or engaged in fraud and embezzlement.

Rather, this money had genuinely been deposited into the accounts of the households receiving subsistence allowances.

And those households were truly impoverished, capable of withstanding investigation by superiors.

This was the clever part about Du Laosan; he hadn't pushed people to the brink.

As the saying goes, even a rabbit will bite when pushed to the limit.

Du Laosan should also be afraid of someone dousing him with gasoline while he slept one night!

In rural areas, people generally had a mindset that money issued by the state tasted a bit like a windfall.

If they had to give half of it away, they would feel very pained, but under the threat and coercion of others, they wouldn't fight to the death.

The atmosphere in the car at this moment was very oppressive.

Sun Ning was deep in thought, and the others didn't dare to speak.

When the car arrived at the Civil Affairs Office, Sun Ning said indifferently, "Get the plan to me as soon as possible!"

"Yes, Party Secretary."

Zhang Pengfei left; he probably wouldn't have peace of mind for a long time to come.

Returning to the Township Government compound, Ding Jun was already waiting at the door of his office.

Just now, he had noticed that Sun Ning's tone was off, so he had rushed over.

He let Ding Jun sit down first, then dialed Zhu Zihao's number.

He first asked if there was anything unusual about the deputy station chief on a daily basis.

Zhu Zihao said he was relatively low-key on a daily basis and there was nothing unusual.

Sun Ning then asked if he had ever abused his power for personal gain or secretly suppressed any cases.

Zhu Zihao said that judging from the case files, there were no suspicious points.

Sun Ning stopped asking about the deputy station chief; with twenty years in the police force, there would surely be no flaws to find in his public security work.

But Du Laosan's backer was definitely the deputy station chief of the Police Station.

Sun Ning did not believe this was fake.

As for those hooligans in the village, hoping they could keep a secret was impossible.

As for whether Du Laosan had colluded with other leaders in the township, that remained unknown.

"How is the public security situation in Du Village?"

"I don't have an impression of other villages, but I have a deep impression of Du Village. They might not even call the police once a year."

"I previously even marveled that this village must have honest and simple folk customs."

Upon hearing Zhu Zihao say this, Sun Ning felt it all added up; the villagers didn't dare to call the police after incidents for fear of retaliation from Du Laosan.

Or perhaps, if any situation arose, Du Laosan would have his backer intervene immediately instead of calling the police?

But previously, the deputy station chief of Mishui Township Police Station was Zhu Zihao.

He had been the station chief for less than a year.

And the current deputy station chief had also been in that position for less than a year.

But Du Laosan had been throwing his weight around for a very long time.

Then, initially, Du Laosan's backer was not the current deputy station chief.

The former station chief, Chief Wu!

That would mean Chief Wu and the deputy station chief were birds of a feather.

But they shouldn't have gone that far just for that little bit of subsistence allowance money!

There must be a larger interest involved in this, only Liu Deli and Du Laosan chose to ignore it.

Because this interest didn't involve them personally, but it could bind the interests of a station chief.

As for them taking the subsistence allowance, that was pure greed.

Thinking of this, Sun Ning asked again, "Chief Wu is currently in the Public Security Brigade, right?"

"Party Secretary, he is in the Political Department, currently the Deputy Director of the Political Department."

Huh?

No wonder the Director of the Political Department put Zhu Zihao in Mishui Township; it turns out it was to have his own trusted subordinate keep an eye on things!

Sun Ning felt things were getting interesting.

He had just been on the phone with the big boss of their faction.

However, compared to Secretary Wang Shengli's olive branch, Ning Jie probably wouldn't care about one of his own deputy directors.

"Alright, there should be a criminal case here, be ready at any time."

"Party Secretary, why don't I send people over now."

"You don't trust Ding Jun's ability?"

"No, Party Secretary, I…"

"It's nothing, I trust Ding Jun. Let the Police Station investigate first; if they can't handle it, you step in."

Sun Ning hung up the phone and looked at Ding Jun opposite him.

As if asking, 'Can you do it?'

"Party Secretary, please instruct; the Mishui Township Police Station has combat effectiveness."

"Having this spirit is enough."

Then, Sun Ning briefed Ding Jun on the illegal organization with underworld characteristics led by Du Laosan.

This included problems such as organizing groups with underworld characteristics, forced transactions, assaulting others, and robbing subsistence allowance funds.

As Sun Ning listed the charges, Ding Jun couldn't help but click his tongue in surprise.

Sun Ning was planning to finish them off!

"Ding Jun, you must investigate, investigate strictly, let their criminal behavior have nowhere to hide, and make the evidence solid and concrete."

"It's best to call for support only when it's time to make arrests."

"Remember, they have a backer behind them; you must be careful and cautious. That deputy station chief of your station has been sent by me to the provincial level for study."

After listening to Sun Ning's instructions, Ding Jun solemnly saluted Sun Ning.

"Guarantee to complete the mission!"

The next day, Sun Ning appeared at the Land Resources Office again.

Recently, the Land Resources Office was really busy; they had to cooperate with the Township Government to complete the affairs of the electric vehicle production base.

And there was also the matter of selling land.

Since the Gongfan County Construction Company built a residential complex and quickly finished pre-sales.

Now, residential land in Mishui Township was very popular.

However, the instruction Sun Ning gave was to control land prices and housing prices.

He even boldly shouted that the finances of Mishui Township would not rely on land finance.
