Chapter 766: Another choice between two options

In early December, after completing their inspection in Japan, Chen Tao and his group of more than ten people returned to the East China Sea. Then there is a meeting to introduce the relevant situation.

For now, the higher-ups have actually not made up their minds.

We must not only proceed from the overall situation, focus on future industrial integration, and maintain a prudent attitude towards joint venture plans, but we must also consider realistic constraints.

The reality is that there is no money.

Even the relatively cheapest Japanese technology and equipment has a minimum budget of US$23 million.

And where does the ministry have so much money?

From the factory boss Ma down, everyone couldn't help but be a little pessimistic. They felt that several of Chen Tao's plans were too vain. Although they looked good, they were like castles in the air and not realistic at all.

Chen Tao didn't say anything else and asked Lao Han to prepare a low-cost plan.

Anyway, in four months, the newspaper will be published, and the situation will change.

By then, there will no longer be any obstacles to joint ventures and the use of foreign capital.

After the meeting, Chen Tao returned to his office.

Just as he was about to call his daughter to talk, his secretary suddenly knocked on the door and said that there was a lesbian outside who claimed to be his sister-in-law and wanted to do something with him.

Chen Tao suddenly realized that this sister-in-law was not from the Cheng family, so he quickly asked his secretary to bring her in.

Wei Chunhong, who was anxious because of Lei Dongbao's arrest, knelt down to Chen Tao as soon as she entered the office:

"Dongbao has been captured, Song Chang, only you can save him."

After Song Yunping died, Lei Dongbao vowed not to marry in his life.

But...

Within a few years, he fell in love with Wei Chunhong, a widow who owned a restaurant.

Later, he would also dislike Wei Chunhong because of a woman named Feng Xinxin.

It highlights the meaning of "deep affection and profound meaning".

Of course, Chen is not qualified to call other people scumbag.

Chen Tao helped Wei Chunhong up and said with concern:

"Get up and talk properly. What happened?"

Wei Chunhong was worried: "Something happened to Chen Pingyuan, and Dongbao was also implicated. Now the superiors have sealed the accounts of Xiaolei's family, and Shi Gen has been arrested. Only Lei Zhongfu is fine in the village."

Chen Pingyuan was the former secretary and has been Lei Dongbao's supporter in the years since Lao Xu returned to Beijing.

But unlike Lao Xu, he would reach out for benefits.

Lei Dongbao was not active in the triangular debt cleanup task before. He was also very arrogant and had conflicts with the new leaders in the county.

Now that Chen Pingyuan has been sacked, how can he gain anything as a briber?

Lei Shigen is an accountant. His personal character is quite good and trustworthy, but he has also done some stupid things. For example, when it comes to bribery, he actually does it openly.

Lei Zhongfu is the person in charge of Xiaolei's pig farm and has nothing to do with the overall situation.

Chen Tao was not interested in asking more questions and comforted him:

"Don't be anxious. This matter is still unclear. I don't understand the situation and I can't act rashly. But I want to explain one thing to you in advance. I will help Lei Dongbao, but if he really has illegal and criminal facts, I can't do anything. ”

Wei Chunhong burst into tears: "Dongbao was taken away in front of me. Before he left, he only said five words to me, which was: go find Song Yunhui! If Dongbao was still your brother-in-law, would you still treat him like this? ?"

What did Lei Dongbao usually do? She was so smart, how could she not figure it out?

If Chen Tao doesn't act willfully and instead goes about business, Lei Dongbao will definitely go to jail next.

Chen Tao said seriously: "Even if my sister is arrested, I will only help her seek leniency within the scope allowed by the law."

Wei Chunhong was devastated and walked towards the door of the office, then turned around and said with tears:

"Director Song, I know you have a problem with me. As long as you can do your best to save Dongbao, I will divorce him immediately! In the past two years, you have not even called him, but every Chinese New Year he I will still stay by the phone, hoping to receive your call. Whenever your sister's birthday or death comes, he won't see me for a whole month! When we meet again, he will lose weight. I care. But he refused to say anything. I know very well that your family is more important to him than me. Director Song, I am not saying this to gain your sympathy. I just want you to know. , No one will blame you if you can’t save Dongbao, but if you are cruel and don’t save him, the scars in Dongbao’s heart will never grow again in this life.”

After all she said, she still wanted Chen Tao to indulge in personal affairs and violate the law.

Chen Tao said firmly: "I still say the same thing, I will try my best to help, but if I can't do it, or can't do it, I will never do it."

Wei Chunhong left disappointed.

"Wait a minute, I'll go back with you to find out the situation."

Chen Tao decided to resolve this matter as soon as possible.

Lei Dongbao’s biggest problem is actually not bribery.

But there is no document proving that Yang Xun's wholesale market is affiliated with Xiaolei's house.

In this way, he asked Yang Xun to run the wholesale market, but only paid management fees, and was suspected of misappropriating hundreds of thousands of collective assets.

According to this amount, eating peanuts is enough.

Therefore, Chen Tao was ready to take out the document and settle the matter.

Hearing what Chen Tao said, Wei Chunhong's face showed joy.

More than half an hour later, Chen Tao first sent home the gifts he bought abroad, and then drove back with Wei Chunhong.

That night, Cheng Kaiyan was stunned.

The husband refused to help her brother, but he helped his former brother-in-law without saying a word.

My husband went abroad and carefully prepared gifts for his daughter Xiaoyin and his parents, but she only had a dark red sweater, which was very tacky.

What's even more outrageous is that she obviously prepared gifts for her parents, but why didn't she think of her parents?

It's on purpose!

The more Cheng Kaiyan thought about it, the angrier he became. He planned to wait for someone to come back and ask him to give him a satisfactory explanation, otherwise he would divorce.

Noon the next day.

After understanding the situation in the county, just like in the original drama, Chen Tao went to pick up Wei Chunhong at her hotel and went to Xiaolei's house together.

Then I met Lei Shigen.

Lei Dongbao took over everything and shouldered all the responsibilities.

So everyone else who was captured, including him, was released.

But Yang Xun hasn't yet.

After all, he is also one of the parties suspected of embezzling collective assets. Before the whole matter is thoroughly investigated, it is impossible to let him back easily.

When he learned of the seriousness of the matter, Lei Shigen immediately swore excitedly that he would never hide Yang Xun's investment documents secretly, and handed everything over to the inspection team.

He will not harm Lei Dongbao intentionally!

Wei Chunhong naturally didn't believe it.

"Shigen, calm down, no one doubts you. There are so many documents in the village and there are many affiliated units. It is normal for sometimes not to organize the documents in time."

Chen Tao first comforted him, and then began to "reason":

"If I'm not wrong about Yang Xun's affiliation, he should have discussed it with Lei Dongbao in person. So since you haven't seen this document, it's very likely that it's still at Lei Dongbao's house. You tell us Go find it.”

When Lei Shigen heard this, he immediately calmed down.

Wei Chunhong also felt a little relieved.

Five minutes later, a group of three people arrived at Lei Dongbao's house.

Lei's mother was also at home at this time.

Back then, because her son obeyed Song Yunping's advice, she had a lot of opinions about her daughter-in-law. She thought she was a vixen, so she pulled her son to roll on the bed in broad daylight.

Now, she also has a problem with Wei Chunhong, a widow, and thinks she is a broom star.

Anyway, as a mother-in-law, she has to be picky about her daughter-in-law.

After learning about Chen Tao's intention, Lei's mother took his arm and burst into tears, begging him to save Dongbao.

Chen Tao didn't waste any time. He pretended to look for it for a while, then opened the mattress and found the investment certificate.

Wei Chunhong, Lei Mu, Lei Shigen and the group who came after hearing the news couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Chen Tao ordered: "Shigen, without further ado, your sister-in-law Wei and I have to go to the county to hand over the things now. You have to take good care of the old man."

Lei Shigen thanked him: "Song Factory, after you hand it over, you come back and I'll prepare some local specialties for you to take back and give to your family to try..."

Xiaolei's family raised fish, bullfrogs, and pigs, and opened a copper factory and a wire factory. They were indeed rich.

But by the end of the century, such collective economies in villages and towns had basically disappeared.

"No!"

Chen Tao smiled and declined: "The situation in your Xiaolei family is not good now. If Dongbao goes in, you have to shoulder the responsibility and think about how to overcome the current difficulties."

It would be no problem for him to collect a few kilograms of fish, frogs and pork, but how could the local specialties Lei Shigen prepared for him only have these things that cannot test people?

So it cannot be collected.

Lei Shigen still wanted to persuade him, but seeing Chen Tao's firm attitude, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

The way other people looked at him suddenly changed.

This is normal.

As long as we are doing things together, it is inevitable that we will have selfish motives. Without Lei Dongbao, many people have ideas.

When Chen Tao said this, he was somewhat of a supporter of Lei Shigen. After all, his weight was quite heavy.

county.

After handing over the investment certificate, Chen Tao went to Chunhong Restaurant and had a bowl of noodles.

Wei Chunhong was very grateful to him.

This is also normal.

If he hadn't inquired about the situation and successfully found proof of investment, Lei Dongbao would still have to sit in jail in the future even if he didn't have to eat peanuts.

In such a comparison, what does it matter if he refuses to go further to save Lei Dongbao?

"No, no need!"

Chen Tao tried his best to refuse and pushed away all the fresh ingredients, but still accepted the lunch box made by Wei Chunhong.

He had to rush back to the East China Sea overnight, and he would definitely be hungry on the way. It would definitely not be a bad thing to get a packed lunch.

In fact, it doesn’t matter if you collect some.

After all, he missed work and used the bus for personal use!

Chen Tao set off at one o'clock in the afternoon, rested for two hours on the way, and returned to Donghai at one o'clock in the morning.

Xiao Yin was sleeping soundly, and Chen Tao tucked her in.

The next day.

Chen Tao went to work as usual and received a call from Director Lu.

He asked Chen Tao to go to the capital to have an in-depth discussion on how to construct the second phase of Donghai.

Chen Tao was well prepared and had already made two detailed plans to give him reassurance.

In addition, Chen Tao also wants to find Lao Xu and report to him about Lei Dongbao.

After all, Lao Xu was actually Lei Dongbao's nobleman back then, and he recommended Song Yunhui to the Jinzhou Factory at Lei Dongbao's request.

Of course, if Song Yunhui hadn't explained policies to Lei Dongbao, Lei Dongbao might not have set up a village-run collective enterprise and established a relationship with Lao Xu.

evening.

Chen Tao got off work on time, went to the Education Bureau to pick up Cheng Kaiyan, and then went to a restaurant for dinner.

When they arrived, the two elders of the Song family had already ordered food.

When she got up this morning, the little girl first sang a song to her father, and then said she wanted to eat hot pot. How could Chen Tao refuse?

Arrange it directly for her.

in the car.

Cheng Kaiyan said disgustedly: "That sweater is so ugly."

Chen Tao chuckled: "I really don't know how to choose women's clothing. But I asked Feng Gong and other female colleagues to help, and you were suspicious, so I had to choose it myself."

Cheng Kaiyan hesitated when he heard the words, and then hummed softly: "You are abroad, no matter what you did, I don't know, I can only believe your words."

"It's up to you to believe it or not. Anyway, I only believe in myself, and I will never believe those villains who use my name, hide it from me, and don't care about my life or death, just for their own benefit!"

"You, don't you seek personal gain? You can use your power to help Lei Dongbao, but you can't help my brother? He is your brother-in-law. Aren't our family also your relatives? You are just too partial! I gave it to you before How many gifts have your parents bought? But when you went abroad, you bought them for your parents and also for Xiaoyin. Why didn’t you think about buying them for my parents and my nephew? , I also took care of Xiaoyin, don’t you appreciate it at all?”

"Use your brain! You can't ignore me asking Lao Min for help and make your brother the deputy secretary of the new workshop just because your brother resigned, right? You have no conscience."

"You have no conscience! My family has helped you so much, and now my father has withdrawn and asked you to help, but you are pushing back. You are the one who has no conscience!"

"Your family has helped me a lot? What kind of things have you told me? Are you serious about self-hypnosis every day? If your father is really so capable, why would he do so many tricks? ? You think I don’t know why your father keeps Xiaoyin? What a big joke!”

"Song! Luck! Hui!"

"I tell you frankly, from now on, I will never do any favors to your Cheng family, because if I help you once, I will fall into your father's hands and be tied to your family's ship from now on. Rather than working as a cow and a horse for your brother who can't spit out ivory, think about it, do you want your husband or your mother's family?"
