In name only: I will break the chess game in Handong!

Hearing this, Chen Luo breathed a slight sigh of relief, but he still couldn't suppress his curiosity.

"Ahem, Secretary Yuliang, in theory, although Governor Jianjun has a long-standing problem with high blood pressure, this kind of thing shouldn't happen unless there's a very strong stimulus. Secretary Yuliang, could you tell me the specifics?"

Upon hearing this, Gao Yuliang revealed an expression of "I knew it," knowing that Chen Luo wanted to hear this gossip.

"I don't know the specific details, but according to the news, the provincial government's party group meeting yesterday was about the approval of fiscal funds and the division of responsibilities."

The approval of the fiscal funds was proposed by Comrade Dagong and Comrade Qi Quansheng regarding the funds needed for the centralized management of small vendors in various parts of Handong, amounting to only a few hundred million yuan.

However, Governor Jianjun refused to approve it, so Comrade Dagong argued with Governor Jianjun, and the result was...

"Just because of this?"

Chen Luo was stunned. What was there to stop or not stop? A few hundred million yuan was nothing to the provincial government. Why would they stop the money?

"Of course not, there's also the division of labor."

Recently, Comrade Yun Haifeng has concurrently served as Vice Governor, and Governor Jianjun plans to take this opportunity to further adjust the division of responsibilities within the provincial government. This is what has truly shaken Comrade Dagong and his ilk, even to the point of direct confrontation.

"That makes sense."

"Yes, but the fact that this hasn't been made public means that the provincial government doesn't want to make a big deal out of it. Let's just treat it as entertainment."

The two chatted for a few more minutes, about trivial matters, and ten minutes later Chen Luo left Gao Yuliang's office and returned to the Political and Legal Affairs Commission.

Friday morning!

At 9:30 a.m., Chen Luo arrived at the Provincial Procuratorate on time to inspect its work. At the main gate, Ji Changming, the chief procurator of the Provincial Procuratorate, remained calm until he saw Chen Luo's car drive in. Only then did a smile appear on his face.

He strode forward and, before Ji Changming could open the car door, Chen Luo pushed open the back door and got out himself.

Facing Ji Changming, Chen Luo maintained a gentle tone, "Comrade Changming, I'm sorry to have kept you and your comrades waiting."

Ji Changming smiled and shook his head, then shook hands with Chen Luo and said, "Secretary Chen, we just came downstairs."

Chen Luo nodded, then shook hands with Deputy Chief Prosecutor Lin Guoping, and Deputy Chief Prosecutor and Chief Prosecutor of Jingzhou Municipal People's Procuratorate Zhong Xiaoai.

"Comrade Xiao Ai, are you settling in well at the procuratorate?"

Chen Luo's face remained expressionless, while Zhong Xiaoai nodded and said, "Thank you for your concern, Secretary Chen. My work at the procuratorate is going smoothly."

Chen Luo didn't respond. Asking wasn't out of concern, but for work purposes. Zhong Zhengguo's only condition for early retirement was that the organization not make things difficult for his daughter. Chen Luo and the others were all rule-abiding citizens, and regardless of whether it was insincere or not, they had to be polite.

"Comrade Changming, I think Comrade Xiao Ai is pregnant?"

Chen Luo ignored Zhong Xiaoai's words and instead became curious about Zhong Xiaoai's large pregnant belly.

I'm four or five months pregnant, and it's normal for my pregnancy to be showing.

Upon hearing this, Ji Changming quickly explained, "Secretary Chen, although Comrade Xiao Ai is single, she has explained to me about the child. It is with her ex-husband, Comrade Hou Liangping."

Chen Luo was somewhat skeptical; things were in complete chaos during that period, and who knew whose it was?

It doesn't matter whose it is, as long as it belongs to Zhong Xiaoai, that's enough.

Seeing Zhong Xiaoai still smiling, Chen Luo's last trace of curiosity vanished.

Just like any other inspection, Chen Luo didn't do anything new. Ji Changming did a good job at the procuratorate. The only pity was that he was about to retire.

"Comrade Changming, you have about a month left before retirement. Do you have any recommendations for the next chief prosecutor?"

Walking down the corridor, Chen Luo and Ji Changming chatted casually. For Chen Luo, this question was just a formality, and Ji Changming understood this as well.

"Secretary Chen, the most suitable person to succeed me right now is Comrade Lin Guoping. He is a veteran of the political and legal system and is very familiar with the work of the procuratorate. In fact, he has handled the vast majority of the work in the past two years. If the organization considers Comrade Guoping, I think the transition of the work of the procuratorate will be very smooth!"

Chen Luo nodded in agreement but did not give a specific response. After all, it was a deputy provincial-level position, and every position had its own vacancy. Whether Lin Guoping could be promoted depended not only on Handong but also on the Supreme People's Procuratorate!

"It's alright, Comrade Changming. Just make your recommendation to the Supreme People's Procuratorate as usual. Our provincial party committee respects the organization's opinion."

This statement was essentially meaningless. The work inspection lasted for three hours. After the lunch break, at 2:40 p.m., a meeting of the Standing Committee was held in the small conference room of the Hantong Provincial Party Committee building.

Chen Luo already knew about the agenda for this meeting yesterday. One of the topics was the issue of rectifying corruption among village secretaries and branch secretaries, which Chen Luo raised with Secretary Yu Liang in person yesterday.

One is the feasibility report analysis on the street vendor economy proposed by Zhao Dagong of the provincial government, and the other is the need to vote on the candidates for the Party Secretary and Mayor of Guangming District.

"Secretary Chen, what's the situation at Beiyue?"

As soon as Chen Luo sat down, Li Dakang took the lead in asking questions. At this moment, Sha Ruijin and Zhou Jianjun had not yet arrived, so everyone was quite relaxed.

As soon as the question was raised, everyone looked at Chen Luo.

"The situation in Beiyue is naturally incomparable to that in Handong, but there are some problems that exist in everyone, such as the supervision of village party secretaries. Handong needs to work hard to rectify this aspect!"

Tigers must be hunted, and flies must be swatted too!

Otherwise, with flies buzzing everywhere, we might be able to sleep, but the common people won't.

"I agree with this! According to the information currently available to our provincial discipline inspection commission, cases of village secretaries and other staff members deceiving their superiors and concealing the truth are very common. The reason is that ordinary people do not understand the policies and are unaware of their own rights."

It's absolutely necessary to rectify the practices of village officials!

After Tian Guofu finished speaking, Wu Chunlin took over the conversation.

"That's true, but the workload is just too huge. We have tens of thousands of village cadres in Handong alone; we can't possibly go down and investigate every single one of them, can we?"

"This isn't simple! Let the local discipline inspection commission investigate!"

"What about the discounts offered by local discipline inspection commissions?"

"Then let's first form several investigation teams, open the windows of the local discipline inspection commissions, and let the sunlight shine on them!"

Tian Guofu concluded with this statement, which immediately commanded respect from everyone: those who would turn a knife against you are ruthless.

"Who should the sunlight shine on first?"

Just then, Sha Ruijin's voice came from the doorway, and then Sha Ruijin and Zhou Jianjun walked into the conference room.

Seeing that no one responded, Sha Ruijin did not feel embarrassed. He sat down in his seat and began to chair the meeting.
