Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

Zhang Bingqian already understood what Lu Jianbang was going to do. He was now overwhelmed. He took off his glasses, wiped them, and put them back on again several times in a row. He was now at a loss. This was an open conspiracy. The case was handled according to the legal process. There was not a single illegal act. You couldn't find any fault.

If we want to blame someone, we have to blame Pei Yan for causing too much trouble. In the past few years, there have been countless fights, quarrels, and similar incidents.

Zhang Bingqian complained bitterly to Duan Huaiwen on the phone.

"Let me tell you straight, Huaiwen, this is the aftereffect of your scheme to frame Mo Qiyuan. People don't beat you or scold you, they just use the law to disgust you, and you don't have any temper at all."

Duan Huaiwen also knew the seriousness of the matter, and he sighed.

"Bingqian, please stop blaming me and think about how to solve this problem."

"How do we solve this? How do you say we solve this? The entire capital, not counting the police stations, not counting the suburban police stations, even the five major police stations in the city, must have taken action.

As soon as you release Pei Yan, he will arrest him again immediately. I believe that as soon as the Xicheng Branch releases him, the Chaoyang Branch will come again. After the Chaoyang Branch is done, the Haidian Branch will come again. What do you think you will do?

If I go to each of their chiefs to plead for mercy, will I still have the dignity to work in the Public Security Bureau in the future?

Duan Huaiwen stamped his feet anxiously and asked repeatedly,

"What should I do?"

Zhang Bingqian said earnestly,

"Huaiwen, let me advise you that you can't keep Pei Yan as your adopted grandson. Let him fend for himself. Otherwise, if the central government finds out about this, both of us will be in trouble."

Duan Huaiwen's eyes turned red, and he roared loudly,

"Don't say anything more. He's my grandson, my own grandson. I can't let him die on his own. It's no big deal. Why are you so persistent? If that's the case, then come at me! No matter what means you use, I'll take them all!"

Zhang Bingqian knew as soon as he heard it that he was already furious.

"Huaiwen, calm down first. No matter how you look at this matter, you are the one who made the mistake first. And according to the legal process, neither Dongcheng nor Xicheng did anything wrong."

Duan Huaiwen's voice was a little hoarse.

"So what do you say we should do? Are we just going to let them play around like this?"

Zhang Bingqian chuckled,

"Don't worry, go to the Municipal Party Committee and report the problem to the Secretary. Ask the Secretary to come and talk to Lu Jianbang. I believe Lu Jianbang won't dare to offend the Secretary."

Duan Huaiwen was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Okay then, I'll go find the secretary in a moment."

The phone call was hung up. Zhang Bingqian sat alone in the office, his brows furrowed. He was almost a laughing stock in the Municipal Bureau. Old Guo was transferred away, and he broke his left hand. Now he broke Chen Yuan's right hand.

Now he has no say in the Municipal Public Security Bureau, but Zhang Bingqian will not admit his failure, nor will he return to the department in disgrace.

But what should he do now? For him, the only obstacle in the Municipal Bureau is Lu Jianbang. He must find a way to move Lu Jianbang away so that he can take power into his own hands.

He stood up and paced back and forth in the office, his mind racing...

Lu Jianbang is a very capable person. He is not greedy or possessive, and he does not fight for power. He has no shortcomings, so it is really difficult to deal with him. Even if he wants to frame someone, he has nowhere to start.

He walked around the office for twenty minutes. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, he sneered, and said,

"A man of small mind is not a gentleman, and a man without ruthlessness is not a man. If that's the case, don't blame me for resorting to such a bad strategy."

He opened the door and cried out,

"Xiao Zhou, come here for a moment,"

He called his secretary Zhou Yiming, who was transferred back from the ministry and could be said to be his absolute confidant.

Zhou Yiming was in the office when he heard Zhang Bingqian calling him. He quickly put down his pen, straightened his clothes, and went to Zhang Bingqian's office.

"Commander, you called me?"

Zhang Bingqian nodded: "Yiming, how many years have you worked with me?"

Zhou Yiming answered without hesitation,

"Five years and three months,"

Zhang Bingqian smiled and said, "It's been a long time. What level are you at now?"

Zhou Yiming was a little embarrassed, he was at the deputy section level,

Zhang Bingqian patted his shoulder.

"You are 26 years old this year, right? A 20-something year old at the deputy section level is not bad, but it's just good. Qin Dabao is only 19 years old this year, and he is already at the deputy division level. Do you know why?"

Zhou Yiming shook his head. He had some guesses in his mind, but he couldn't say them out loud.

"It's because he has someone above him, his uncle is Lu Jianbang, the director of our Municipal Bureau. Do you think we can pull him down if there's any good thing going on?"

Zhou Yiming's guess was just like that. He forced a smile and nodded. If you compare yourself with others, you will die. If you compare goods with others, you will throw them away. If you compare yourself with people of the same age, you are already very good. But if you compare yourself with people like Dabao, you are nothing.

Zhou Yiming was of course not convinced. What was the reason for you to kiss Dabao? Wasn't it because you were born into a good family and had a good uncle? Of course, he couldn't say this openly, but Zhang Bingqian said it for him.

"Why is Qin Dabao like this? Isn't it just because he has a good uncle? If he didn't have this uncle, what would he be?"

Zhang Bingqian saw Zhou Yiming's face turn red, knowing that he had bewitched his heart, Zhang Bingqian sighed,

"Yiming, you are my secretary, you are my own person. You know how I have treated you over the years."

Zhou Yiming quickly said,

"The chief has been incredibly kind to me. If I had the chance, I would definitely sacrifice my life to repay him."

Zhang Bingqian shook his hand and said with a smile,

"That's too much. I wouldn't say you're willing to sacrifice yourself for me. However, I do have something I need you to do. After you've done it, I'll promote you to office director, a regular section chief."

Zhou Yiming was overjoyed when he heard this. If he could be promoted to a section-level cadre before the age of 28, his future career would be smooth sailing. No one could guess how far he could go.

"What do you want me to do? Just tell me, I will definitely get it done."

Zhang Bingqian nodded with satisfaction.

"It's like this. I believe you know best my current situation in the Municipal Bureau. It's really a situation where even a fart doesn't make any noise. Who am I, Zhang Bingqian? I will never give in to anyone. In the Municipal Bureau, I must turn this situation around."

Zhou Yiming quickly said,

"Commander, please tell me what you need me to do."

Zhang Bingqian asked Zhou Yiming to sit on the sofa. He leaned over and whispered in Zhou Yiming's ear,

"Pei Yan is a big trouble. Now this matter is getting bigger and bigger. When the higher authorities send people to hold him accountable, I'm afraid even I won't get any good results."

"Commander, what do you think we should do?"

Zhang Bingqian lowered his voice so low that even Zhou Yiming had to strain his ears to hear him.

"Pei Yan must die!"
