I just joined the inspection department, and the whole country is in a panic.

"Secretary, please rest assured, I am confident in this!" Zhao Zhong nodded firmly.

“If you talk to the remaining members of the Standing Committee once, I believe they will give you face.” Zhang Lichun smiled when he heard this.

He could see that even if Yang Wen objected, most people would agree to lend the money. He wondered how dark Yang Wen's face would look then.

This is also a good thing for him!

That way, you can gain the upper hand in the meeting.

This also made everyone realize that his relationship with Feng Shangru had become even closer!

……

Three days later.

Yang Wen returned from his business trip.

He immediately called Sun Zhenhai, Zhuo Wen, Meng Xiaojun, Huang Qiuli, Liu Cheng, Li Xingyan, and Zhou Yuanhuai, inviting them all to dinner that evening.

The only ones missing were Zhang Lichun and Qian Xing!

When everyone saw that it was their boss inviting them to dinner, they all agreed.

The main problem is that we don't know what Yang Wen is up to!

However, this was the first time Yang Wen had invited so many of them to dinner, and they went with the attitude of just going to participate and see what was going on.

Otherwise, why would they invite so many members of the Standing Committee to dinner together?

7 p.m.

Inside a private room in a restaurant.

Not long after Yang Wen arrived, Sun Zhenhai and the others also arrived one after another.

The food has already been ordered.

The wine was also brought out.

He brought the wine himself; it was just ordinary Qinghualang.

He won't take out Moutai!

"I'm treating everyone to dinner today. Firstly, it seems like we've never all eaten together before, so this is a small get-together for us all."

"The second thing is to celebrate that our Liuhai City has received 20 billion yuan in special funds. We all deserve a lot of credit for securing this funding!" Yang Wen said to everyone with a smile.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment upon hearing this.

Because, if we really have to talk about credit...

Everyone else has them, so why aren't Zhang Lichun and Qian Xing here tonight?

Of course, no one pointed it out!

"Alright, let's eat first. Tomorrow is Saturday, so we can all have a few drinks," Yang Wen said.

Sun Zhenhai, who was standing next to him, quickly began pouring the wine.

After three rounds of wine, the five flavors of food are over.

"Secretary, will this special fund be available within six months?" Zhou Yuanhuai asked curiously.

Although the document says three to six months.

However, no one can say for sure what the actual situation will be.

"At the latest, six months; three months is probably unrealistic."

"But now there's a problem!"

"We might not even get this money," Yang Wen said calmly.

These words shocked everyone!

"what's the situation?"

"Secretary, did I hear that right? We fought for this money, so why can't we get it? Has the deal been changed?" Zhou Yuanhuai was stunned.

Everyone turned to look at Yang Wen!

“I was on a business trip in the provincial capital a few days ago when Secretary Feng met with me. He wanted me to lend this sum of money to Yunhai City, a neighboring city!”

"So, whether we can get this funding is hard to say!"

"what?"

Everyone was shocked to hear this.

The boss above wants to forcibly borrow this money?

Yang Wen even told them about it!

At this moment, everyone's mind was elsewhere, each thinking about the aftermath of the matter.

“I refused on the spot! This money was hard-won for us, why should we give it to a neighboring city? If our neighboring city needs to develop, don’t we need to too?”

"Therefore, I firmly rejected Secretary Feng back then!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed slightly once again!

Did Yang Wen directly reject Feng Shangru?

What the hell!

You're just going to fight head-on!

Awesome!

If it were them, they certainly wouldn't dare to refuse in person.

Yang Wen did it!

Cow breaking!

"I have two reasons for refusing. First, others need to develop, and we also need to develop. This money should definitely be kept for ourselves."

"Secondly, this is a special fund, a support fund. It is because of Minister Huang's confidence in us, his trust in us, and his support that he gave us this fund!"

"If we get this funding but lend it to someone else, what will the higher-ups think? What will Minister Huang think?"

"Who will be responsible when an investigation breaks down?"

"I'll call Chief Huang now and report this to him!" Without waiting for anyone's opinion, he dialed Huang Zhenrong's number.

About twenty seconds later.

connected!

"Hey, Chief Huang, it's me, Yang Wen!"

"Yes, here's the thing, I'd like to report something about work to you."

"Yeah!"

"I'm having dinner with several members of the Standing Committee of our city right now. Yes, they are Sun Zhenhai, Zhuo Wen, Meng Xiaojun, Huang Qiuli, Liu Cheng, Li Xingyan, and Zhou Yuanhuai."

"Yes, yes, we are all very grateful for your trust, your confidence, and your support, which has enabled us to obtain this special fund of 20 billion yuan."

“But now a sister city, Yunhai City, wants to borrow our 20 billion yuan, and I firmly disagree!”

"This is not just a matter of principle, but also a matter of bottom line. If we lend it to them, don't we need to develop ourselves?"

“When you came down to conduct research and investigation, you did not provide any support funds to Yunhai City, which proves that your judgment of Yunhai City is that it does not need financial support for the time being.”

“So lending them 20 billion is probably inappropriate!” Yang Wen said.

When everyone heard Yang Wen report on his work in this way, and even mention all of them, they all cursed him inwardly.

Oh shit!

Tonight is a trap!

No wonder Yang Wen invited them to dinner together; now that Huang Zhenrong knows, the situation is different.

“Comrade Yang Wen, you absolutely cannot operate like this. This money is for your development, and you can’t just lend it out! This is against regulations! We will also send people down to check! Once it’s discovered that it has been borrowed, it’s unacceptable!” Huang Zhenrong said seriously on the other end of the phone.

Yang Wen deliberately turned on speakerphone so that everyone could hear Huang Zhenrong's exact words!

What the hell!

Everyone who saw this felt a pang of unease.

Since they've already said that, what will happen if they don't support Yang Wen?

In fact, when Huang Zhenrong heard Yang Wen reporting these things over the phone, he knew that someone below was definitely making things difficult for Yang Wen and trying to embezzle the 20 billion!

So he simply went with the flow and helped Yang Wen out!

Besides, now that Yang Wen has come begging to his door, he can't just stand by and watch him die, can he?

"Minister Huang, you're right. We will stick to our bottom line. Does everyone agree?" Yang Wen looked at the crowd.
