At the pinnacle of power: parachuted into your hometown as a leader right from the start!

"Director Hu, you guys are amazing!"

On the other side, Hu Hanshuo had a big smile on his face.

"I'm sorry, Mayor Lu, there's nothing we can do about this. It was all caused by our subordinates. Our municipal bureau was just cooperating in the arrests."

Lu Rouxiang's eyes shifted slightly.

"What do you mean, Director Hu? Your municipal bureau is now assisting the county bureau in making arrests? What kind of logic is this? Superiors assisting subordinates? Does Yuanchang County have no rules left?"

Hu Hanshuo smiled when he heard this.

"Mayor Lu, I was just thinking that since this happened in Yuanchang County, it's not appropriate for our municipal bureau to intervene if we're not familiar with the situation."

"Besides, the higher authorities have repeatedly emphasized this year the need to cultivate the problem-solving abilities of grassroots cadres, so we naturally won't take on any more cases."

"But Mayor Lu, please rest assured, our municipal bureau will definitely supervise the county bureau's case-handling procedures and assist the county bureau in handling cases..."

Lu Rouxiang's expression changed, and then she spoke directly.

"Comrade Han Shuo, well, your idea is good, but I've heard that Yitian Mining has deep ties with the local leaders of Yuanchang County."

"Shouldn't you consider this aspect as well?"

Hu Hanshuo offered a few explanations, but he never mentioned transferring the case to the municipal bureau.

He wouldn't get involved in this mess unless the Party Secretary or the Mayor called him.

He even had Ning Jinhua take the people over and send them directly to the county bureau for interrogation, which proved his attitude.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Rouxiang's face was extremely pale.

"That old fox!"

Meanwhile, the case was still being processed. When Jiang Feng arrived at work the next morning, he saw Xing Weimin and Wang Qiang, both with dark circles under their eyes, already waiting outside the office.

"So early? Didn't you sleep all night?"

Jiang Feng watched as Wang Zhenghui opened the office door and casually asked the two of them a question.

Xing Weimin wore a helpless, bitter smile.

"County Chief Jiang, isn't the Yitian Mining case too complicated? We're trying to avoid any unforeseen complications, so we haven't had a break since the documents came down."

Wang Qiang immediately nodded in agreement.

"Yes, when we were making arrests last night, some of them started to escape. Fortunately, the county's orders came quickly and Director Xing acted decisively, otherwise they might have really gotten away."

Jiang Feng nodded slightly and led the two into the office.

"Xiao Wang, make them both a strong cup of tea, so they won't get sleepy when they give their work report later."

After saying that, he continued speaking to the two of them.

"By the way, have you two had breakfast?"

The two shook their heads, and Jiang Feng, seeing this, said to Wang Zhenghui.

"Xiao Wang, bring back a meal for those two while you're at it."

After Wang Zhenghui finished making tea and left, Jiang Feng leaned back in his chair and said to Xing Weimin.

"Comrade Weimin, you've worked hard."

Xing Weimin smiled and waved his hand.

"County Chief Jiang, we're not working hard; this is what we should do—it's our duty to serve the people!"

Jiang Feng pondered for a moment, then spoke.

"Well, you can say that, but I can't just stand by and do nothing. You can't expect the horse to run without feeding it, right?"

"In that case, the Finance Bureau will allocate some funds to you this month to give your cadres and comrades more bonuses."

Upon hearing this, Xing Weimin immediately smiled and said to Jiang Feng.

"County Chief Jiang, you really care about your comrades below. I will definitely pass this on as soon as I get back."

"I believe our comrades will remember your kindness."

Jiang Feng waved his hand slightly.

"Well, it's only right. Our comrades work so hard, so we should naturally provide them with some benefits."

"Alright, let's talk about the problems with Yitian Mining."

Xing Weimin glanced at Wang Qiang beside him.

Upon seeing this, Wang Qiang immediately took out the document and handed it to Jiang Feng.

"County Chief Jiang, this is our bureau's preliminary investigation report."

"Our bureau has now arrested all the main leaders of Yitian Mining, and Cui Yake, the general manager of Yitian Mining, has confessed everything."

"Yitian Mining colluded with officials and leaders of the Land and Resources Bureau to force the sale of some mines. When the other party disagreed, they were threatened with violence, and even their families were targeted..."

After listening to Wang Qiang's report, Jiang Feng frowned slightly and said...

"I remember the owner of Yitian Mining is Lu Zhuqian, right?"

Wang Qiang said with a look of guilt on his face.

"Yes, County Chief Jiang, we all know that Lu Zhuqian is the owner of Yitian Mining, but the key is that we can't find any evidence right now!"

"Those who were arrested kept their mouths shut, and all the questions ended with Cui Yake."

Xing Weimin, who was standing to the side, added.

"Yes, County Chief Jiang, these people are very tight-lipped. Even if there are some things that can't be explained, they just push the blame onto Cui Yake."

"Lu Zhuqian is now like an ordinary person who knows nothing."

"Furthermore, we checked Lu Zhuqian's bank account and found that there wasn't much money in it, and there weren't any valuables in her home either."

Jiang Feng frowned and looked at the two of them, asking a question.

"So, does that mean Lu Zhuqian will continue to evade justice?"

Xing Weimin and Wang Qiang lowered their heads. Although they were very reluctant to admit it, that was how things were.

They have no evidence to prove that this matter is related to Lu Zhuqian.

Without evidence, even Jiang Feng can't get the daughter of the executive vice mayor imprisoned.

Jiang Feng pinched the bridge of his nose, then sighed.

"Alright, I understand. Handle it as you see fit!"

After the two left, Jiang Feng leaned back in his chair and couldn't help but ponder.

"If this matter cannot bring Lu Zhuqian to justice, then the real mastermind will escape the law."

"But it's too difficult to definitively smear her with evidence. So many leaders are watching this matter. If anything seems amiss, it will give them an opportunity to make their move."

At this point, Jiang Feng couldn't help but sigh.

"Sigh, if we really can't find any evidence, then we'll just have to let her go."

"However, this kind of person definitely won't stop. If we keep an eye on her, we'll eventually get her locked up!"

Just then, a call suddenly came into Jiang Feng's phone.

"Hello, Secretary Jiang, I am Wang Bohao."

Jiang Feng nodded slightly, then asked in confusion.

"Um, Comrade Bohao, what's up with your call?"

Wang Bohao hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"County Chief Jiang, someone just called me and told me that Cui Yake was behind everything. They said that if we release some of the innocent people, it will reduce a lot of trouble when dealing with Yitian Mining's assets."

Jiang Feng smiled and then spoke directly.

"Okay, Comrade Bohao, tell the other party that our Yuanchang County Public Security Bureau will never wrong any innocent person. As long as the other party is innocent, we will release them after 24 hours."

Wang Bohao immediately agreed.
