Chapter 148 The mediocre and the capable (additional updates, please subscribe)
The investigation team from their superiors did not choose the office location in the Mingzhou City Government to avoid interference from the government. However, ordinary hotels and inns were not convenient for working, so they rented a separate hotel in the city. A single-family courtyard serves as a temporary office space.
Outside the small courtyard, there were two guards who were also brought from the capital. When they saw a 212 approaching, the guards immediately performed their duties and walked towards the car with steel guns in hand.
“There is an important criminal suspect here. We will send him to the investigation team.” Qin Tao said to the guard.
crime suspect? The guard opened the car door and saw Tao Yongfeng, who was covered in blood and didn't know whether to live or die. He was stunned for a moment and subconsciously pointed his gun at Qin Tao and others: "Don't move!"
He has seen this person before. He came here to report his identity to the public a few days ago. Why did he suddenly become a criminal suspect?
How come it doesn’t look like it!
On the other hand, Qin Tao and the others are somewhat similar.
"What's going on?" The noise at the door startled the people inside. Lin Jiangtao walked out quickly. Seeing Tao Yongfeng who was beaten to death, he was also shocked. He subconsciously wanted to let his men kill Qin Tao and others. Catch them all.
“My name is Qin Tao, an engineer at Mingzhou Shipyard.” Qin Tao quickly announced his family name: “I have definite evidence that Director Liu of Mingzhou Steel Plant was murdered.”
Qin Tao? Lin Jiangtao was shocked immediately, and then said: "Come in, Xiao Liu, and ask a doctor to come over. Xiao Qin, you and I come over."
Qin Tao and Lin Jiangtao came to a room alone. After Qin Tao played the recording from the Walkman, Lin Jiangtao became more solemn.
“Xiao Wang, immediately interrogate the criminal suspect in a surprise attack. After questioning him clearly, he will be arrested overnight tonight!”
Although Tao Yongfeng did not say that Uncle Jiu killed Liu Minggang, their investigation team's recent investigation also showed that the cause of Liu Minggang's death was very suspicious. They also found that the person who asked Liu Minggang to drink was related to the Tao family. Yes, but although these lines were connected, there was no definite evidence, and there was no way to find out who the driver was who killed Liu Minggang. After all, there were no such high-end things as cameras on the roads in this era.
Now, with Tao Yongfeng’s recording, there is one more piece of evidence.
"yes!"
Xiao Wang is Lin Jiangtao’s capable subordinate, and there is no problem in handing him over for interrogation. On the surface, their investigation team is investigating corruption and bribery at the Mingzhou Shipyard, but in fact, they have been investigating the cause of Liu Minggang’s death. Their superiors have given them a death order and they must get to the bottom of it!
"If you want to take action, it's best not to use the local police force in Mingzhou. If the police force is insufficient, you can ask the Marine Corps in Mingzhou to help." Qin Tao said, this is the only thing he is worried about. If the news leaks out, he will run away. If Uncle Jiu is killed, it will not end well.
Lin Jiangtao nodded: "That's right. Please support us with troops."
"Well, do I have anything else to do?" Qin Tao was done. He looked at Lin Jiangtao: "If nothing happens, I will take the people away. I am exhausted from running around for days."
"Let's go? Why are you in a hurry? Now that you're here, let's have another cup of tea." Lin Jiangtao said.
"All right."
"Regarding the matter of checks, the clothing factory insists that there is no such thing. If you take the clothes to Lao Maozi, they will know it clearly. What kind of fraud is just a rumor. Since the owner of the suffering will not pursue it, then this The matter is over. However, it is clear that you gave yourself a bonus of 20,000 yuan. Do you have anything to explain?" Lin Jiangtao said.
This problem can be big or small. If you are a timid person, you may have to kowtow and beg for mercy right now.
After Lin Jiangtao finished speaking, he picked up the tea cup and drank water, while looking at Qin Tao's expression. At this time, Qin Tao didn't care: "Yes, I took it, and I bought this mobile phone openly."
As he said that, Qin Tao put his eldest brother directly on the table: "The nature of the problem between me and the director of Haihe Bicycle Factory No. 2 is different. He accepted bribes and gave people money to buy bicycles. Then he denied it in every possible way and refused. Admit it, I am aboveboard, what is the organization going to do with me? Are you going to send me in?"
“Aren’t you afraid?” Lin Jiangtao said.
"What do I have to be afraid of?" Qin Tao said: "Without me, Mingzhou Shipyard would have closed down long ago. How many workers would have been laid off and unemployed. Where would we be today? We have created employment for thousands of people, and we have become The largest profit and tax company in Mingzhou City! Is my bonus of 20,000 yuan a lot? Besides, I bought this mobile phone for work. I use my bonus to buy supplies for work. My superiors should commend me for this noble act. the spirit of."
"You! This mouth is so eloquent." Lin Jiangtao said, "However, your behavior will still cause controversy!"
Qin Tao smiled: "Controversy? Is it as controversial as the director of the Second Haihe Bicycle Factory?"
Haihe is a bicycle city. Feige and Hongqi bicycles produced here are sold well all over the country.
Li Zu, the director of the Second Bicycle Factory, was even more capable. He was born in 1935 and was assigned to the Haihe Bicycle Factory after graduating from a technical secondary school in Nanjing Machinery Manufacturing School. He used his spare time to study university courses and at the same time, he also carried out reforms in the factory.
In 1959, 24-year-old Li Zu built a rear-cam mechanical transmission electroplating production line after dozens of days of hard work, doubling production efficiency and liberating a large number of labor forces.
In 1985, he served as the director and chief engineer of the Second Haihe Bicycle Factory. This factory is very brilliant, with nearly 8,000 employees, an annual output of 2.65 million bicycles, and a profit and tax of 116 million yuan. He also served as the director of the motorcycle factory, and the Schindler brand motorcycles he produced were sold well all over the country.
However, in 1987, he was involved in a bribery case. The relevant departments found out that he and his wife had accepted a bribe of 70,000 yuan, so he was imprisoned.
"The factory director at that time had a monthly salary of two hundred yuan and took a bribe of 70,000 yuan. It sounds like a huge amount, but how much value did he create for the factory by himself? Look, after he betrayed and was imprisoned, the second factory is now What does it look like? I’m afraid it won’t be long before we are squeezed out by the township and village enterprises in Haihe!”
"A super-capable director of a state-owned factory has led the entire factory to develop and grow. How much money should he get? Should he get a dead salary that is not much higher than that of ordinary workers? A salary of two hundred yuan is ridiculous! His Those inventions could be sold for millions just by selling the patents, but as a result, he was imprisoned for embezzling 70,000 yuan."
When Qin Tao said this, his voice increased a bit: "Not all factory directors are the same. In 1989, there was already the first company to close down. Now, there are dozens and hundreds of them across the country. Our state-owned enterprise has closed down! Look what the workers in those factories are like!"
These words are shocking.
Lin Jiangtao was silent there.
This is indeed a problem! It is indeed inappropriate for a factory director who leads the whole factory to glory, and still gets a salary that is not much higher than that of ordinary workers. The salary of these factory leaders should be improved. If the salary is enough, then why bother to accept it? bribe?
However, from his position, he cannot talk nonsense, so he can only remain silent.
"When this factory director comes out, there will definitely be a large number of township enterprises to hire him, and the annual salary will be as high as one million." Qin Tao continued: "Looking back at his past years, it is really not worth it. He is so capable. People like us shouldn’t work in the second factory. If we go to the township enterprises as early as possible, do we still have to squat there?”
Before being investigated, Li Zu had been promoted to the third level of salary in a row and even treated him to dinner to celebrate. However, after the third level of salary promotion, it was only more than 200 yuan. In the 1980s, there were already a large number of people earning 10,000 yuan. Household.
This matter is very emotional to say. When Li Zu was here, the factory was booming, and the Hongqi bicycles from the second factory were better than the flying pigeons from the first factory. When he went in, the second factory would soon die, and the first factory's flying pigeons would soon die too.
After Li Zu came out, countless heads of domestic bicycle production plants were waiting for him at the gate of the prison and hired him to serve with high salaries.
In the end, Li Zu chose Wuqing Mechanical and Electronics Industry Company. With three new models and patents he designed in prison, he founded Jinqi Bicycle Company and served as general manager. The mountain bikes he produced were sold at the Xi'an Exhibition and Order Fair. He was dubbed the "King of the Mountains" and was in short supply. The Jinqi Bicycle Company he founded has an annual production capacity of 300,000 sets and an annual profit of 4 million yuan.
He could put this money into his pocket in a proportional manner. After all, he had the final say on his territory. Later, Haihe was still a bicycle production place, but the state-owned bicycle factory closed down and it was all private enterprises that supported it. Start the bicycle kingdom.
"If I go in and get out, I will open my own shipyard. I won't let go of this nonsense. With my own ability, I can earn 30 to 50 million yuan a year. It's easy. I will be jailed for 20,000 yuan." People pointing fingers?" Qin Tao said.
Lin Jiangtao sighed: "Qin Gong, you are right. You are not wrong at all. The current system is imperfect. After all, our country is still developing. No one knows how to carry out reform and opening up. Everyone knows It's like crossing the river by feeling the stones. In fact, when I came here to investigate, I also received strong pressure from the Navy. They said that you have made meritorious service to the country and made no mistakes. Even if there are some economic problems, the Navy is willing to do its best to protect you. . Later I went to the shipyard, and I also felt the respect of the workers in the factory for you. If the Mingzhou Shipyard collapses because of your pursuit of these issues, it will be a loss for the city of Mingzhou and the country. However, I After investigation, the operating conditions of your factory are not optimistic."
During this period of time, Lin Jiangtao investigated everything that should be investigated. The profitability of Mingzhou Shipbuilding was astonishing. In more than a year, it made tens of millions, which is definitely cruel enough. But at the same time, Mingzhou Shipbuilding The factory spends money too fast, especially recently.
Are there any problems in this?
Qin Tao's face showed helplessness: "What can be done about this? It's not because Mingzhou City wants to give us this mess of a steel plant and disrupt our original plan. Otherwise, we can still guarantee that we have enough cash. However, even if we borrow several million from the bank, there is no big problem. With the speed at which we earn tens of millions a year, are we still afraid of not being able to repay the bank loan? "
This explanation is quite reasonable. After all, the mess at the Mingzhou Steel Plant is enough to cause a headache. After Mingzhou Shipyard took over this mess, it was normal for it to be dragged down.
He investigated all the accounts of Mingzhou Shipyard and found that Qin Tao took the money openly and honestly. Moreover, the money was all earned by Qin Tao. He also admired Qin Tao's ability very much.
Recently, Mingzhou Shipyard has been spending money at a faster rate, which has even caused the shipyard to start to go into debt. However, if the expenses of the steel plant are removed, they still have enough cash flow.
So, we can’t blame anything else but the problems at the Mingzhou Steel Plant. It’s a pity. If Liu Minggang was still alive, there would be no problem if all these liabilities were placed on the Mingzhou Steel Plant.
It’s really embarrassing!
Thinking of this, Lin Jiangtao thought of the interrogation work on the side. At this moment, Xiao Wang knocked on the door outside: "Team Leader Lin, the suspect confessed everything. Liu Minggang, the director of Mingzhou Shipyard, The murderer was named Zhao Jiu, who had an abnormal relationship with Tao Honghong all year round. This person may have other murder cases on his hands!"
“Motive?”
"A month ago, the Mingzhou City Transportation Company organized a tour to the Oriental Pearl Tower. Tao Honghong took her sons Tao Yongfeng and Zhao Jiu to the opposite side privately. They had a big gamble and owed a huge gambling debt." Xiao Wang said: "On the surface, their company is open for business Normally, in fact, they can no longer operate, so they want to occupy the magpie's nest, occupy the Mingzhou Steel Plant, and transfuse blood for their transportation company."
Sure enough, gambling kills people! Qin Tao felt extremely emotional. Uncle Liu died unjustly. These people must be brought to justice and killed for their lives!
"I have two inferences." Qin Tao thought for a while, and then said: "First, the other party's technique this time was very skillful, and it was not like the first time. So, has Tao Honghong used this method before? , killed his competitors, and finally became the leader of the transportation company. Secondly, this Tao Yongfeng grew up in a single-parent family. I'm guessing, is he Zhao Jiu's son? "
The first inference was that it was official business, and the second inference was that it was private life. After hearing Qin Tao's two inferences, Lin Jiangtao nodded. From the perspective of solving the case, it was very possible.
As long as Tao Honghong and Zhao Jiu are arrested and interrogated, everything will come to light.
PS: The latest content is to let Qin Tao be the leader and have the final say, and dad will step aside.
