Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Well, Mr. Bai is indeed very serious about his work." Tang Jian said with a smile.

"There is nothing difficult in the world. Even if there is, the most frightening thing is the word 'seriousness'. I just put more thought into it than others." Bai Lianfeng answered with a laugh.

"Yes, it's easy to say 'serious', just like the acting governor who has just arrived. He is very serious now and won't let go of the matter of Li Sanmao." Taking this opportunity, Tang Jian changed the topic to Li Sanmao.

Tang Jian himself did not believe that Li Sanmao's case was arranged by Mr. Bai, because it did not fit his style of doing things. Moreover, even if the case was successful, it would not bring any more benefits to Mr. Bai. So why would he do it if there was no benefit or profit? You know, threatening the personal safety of a deputy provincial-level official is not a trivial matter if it is verified.

"Haha, this new acting governor is quite interesting. All I've heard these days are stories about him, and he seems to be specifically against Bai's Real Estate. A while ago it was the matter of Mr. Liang Wu, and now it's the matter of Li Sanmao. Should I find a feng shui master to take a look?" When Bai Lianfeng came to Feng Sizhe, there was more sarcasm on his face. Obviously, he thought that with the current environment in Ducheng Province, such a young man would have very weak control over the overall situation, or it could be said that he would be harmless to the political situation in the entire Ducheng Province. His repeated targeting of Bai's Real Estate was nothing more than a manifestation of his pettiness.

Hearing that Bai Lianfeng didn't seem to take Feng Sizhe seriously, Tang Jian thought it necessary to remind him. To be honest, he did some serious research on this young man, and he discovered a fact, that is, apart from Feng Sizhe's young age, there seemed to be no other weaknesses to be found. This person was decisive, courageous, and skillful. Wherever he had worked, first of all, the local economic situation was very promising, and secondly, the people there were quite critical of this young man.

It is certain that people will be forgotten when they leave, but in Feng Sizhe's case, this phenomenon is not obvious, which means that this young man is very capable. And facing such an outstanding young man, if anyone underestimates him because of his young age, the consequences will undoubtedly be very serious.

"Mr. Bai, excuse my frankness, but this Feng Sizhe is very unusual. Apart from his youth, he has all the advantages. If he is really targeting Bai's Real Estate, I think we should be careful." Tang Jian thought about it and suggested that we pay more attention to Feng Sizhe.

"Careful? What do you mean by careful? I have been very careful in doing things. Since he came, I have not done anything against him. But looking at the way he behaves, it seems that he thinks that our Bai Real Estate is easy to bully. He comes to trouble us again and again. Humph! If he wants to use me to establish his authority, he really made a wrong calculation. We in the Bai family are not that easy to bully." Bai Lianfeng snorted, and it was obvious that he was dissatisfied with what Feng Sizhe had done to Bai Real Estate after he came to the capital province.

Tang Jian looked at Bai Lianfeng who seemed to be unconvinced and shook his head. The Republic is a country based on the official system. Power has always been the greatest expression of ability. Let alone you are just a businessman, even if you have some official titles, if the government wants to deal with you, it can have a thousand reasons, and dictatorship is enough.

However, Tang Jian also understood that Bai Lianfeng looked down upon ordinary people because of his good relationship with Ji Quanyong, especially since Ji Dapeng also held a considerable stake in Bai's Real Estate. Therefore, it was understandable that he could say such things. After all, Ji Quanyong still had the final say in the current Ducheng Province.

But for some reason, another voice is increasingly emerging in Tang Jian's heart, that is, the situation in which the Ji family is the only dominant force in the capital province seems unlikely to continue. This Feng Sizhe may be the one who comes to break the situation. So for the sake of his own future, does he have to make some preparations?

In fact, Feng Sizhe had no intention of targeting anyone. His main experience now was to unify the provincial government, take control of all the affairs here, and replace key positions with his own people. As for other issues, he would not consider them for the time being. The matter of Bai's Real Estate was just a coincidence, and everything he encountered happened to be related to this company.

After arriving at the office early the next morning, Feng Sizhe asked his secretary Yin Fenglei to call Vice Governor He Maolin.

He Maolin came to the governor's office with some uneasiness. He was the vice governor in charge of the Public Security Bureau, security, and justice in the provincial government. Li Sanmao was dead, and if he had to be held accountable for this matter, he would not be able to escape. He even thought of Feng Sizhe's purpose in meeting him.

In the office, Feng Sizhe first inquired about the progress of the Li Sanmao case. When he learned that all clues had been cut off so far, he said angrily, "Comrade He Maolin, to be honest, I am very dissatisfied with the public security work. I have only been in Ducheng Province for a few days, but I have experienced public security situations more than once or twice. Tell me, as the person in charge, do you have anything to explain?"

Seeing that Feng Sizhe was really angry at him, He Maolin lowered his head and said, "Acting Governor, I reflect on myself. I have not done my job well. I am willing to accept criticism."

"Criticism is useless. What I want to see is change and results. But the current public security situation in Ducheng Province is very bad, do you understand? It is very bad. The impact of Li Sanmao's case is also very bad. If we don't take certain measures and solutions, I don't think it will be convincing." Feng Sizhe said loudly.

Feng Sizhe did not appreciate He Maolin's verbal self-criticism. The reason why he called this person here today was very clear. He wanted to use this incident to take down He Maolin and hand over the power to manage the Public Security Bureau in his hands to Yuan Weimin. To put it bluntly, Li Sanmao's case was just an excuse.

Hearing Feng Sizhe say that he would come up with a solution, He Maolin was shocked. He knew that what was coming would eventually come. At this moment, he suddenly felt very relaxed. In the past, he had always been in charge of the Public Security Department on the surface, but in fact, the director of the Public Security Department, Wang Hailiang, was very strong. In his eyes, apart from the Ji family, there was only one Tang Jian. Many of his words were not listened to by the other party. So he had long thought about handing over this burden. He was also afraid that if there was really a big problem in public security in the future, as one of the leaders of the competent department, would he have to bear more responsibilities?

Feng Sizhe then gave He Maolin three days, "Comrade He Maolin, I'll give you three days to investigate the Li Sanmao case. If..."

"It won't take three days, Acting Governor. I will resign my leadership responsibility for the Public Security Department now." He Maolin is a bachelor, so he told the other party the answer directly.

Feng Sizhe was stunned. He didn't expect that the other party would be more straightforward than him. He had originally wanted to proceed step by step and use three days as a buffer to give everyone an acceptable amount of time. But he didn't expect He Maolin to take the initiative to bring up this matter. In this way, things became much easier to resolve.

"Acting Governor, I will hand you my resignation letter when I return." Since He Maolin had decided to resign from the leadership of the Public Security Department, he spoke more firmly.

"Well, Comrade Maolin, I don't have any opinion about you. I just think that the current public security situation in Ducheng Province needs drastic measures. And considering that you have done a lot of work in this regard, it will not be possible to change your ideas and methods immediately, so I hope you can understand." Feng Sizhe looked at He Maolin's words and felt a little embarrassed, so he comforted him with a few words.

"Thank you, Acting Governor, for thinking of me." He Maolin said insincerely. What he was thinking now was that instead of asking you to take the power back from me, it would be better for me to resign on my own initiative. Wouldn't it be more worthy of my face if I did so?

In this way, half an hour later, He Maolin handed the letter of resignation from the leadership of the Public Security Bureau to Feng Sizhe. And Young Master Feng immediately called Yuan Weimin.

When Yuan Weimin appeared in the governor's office and heard that he would take over the leadership of the Public Security Department from now on, he was also greatly surprised. This matter was just something Feng Sizhe mentioned to him yesterday. He originally thought that such a big thing could not be accomplished without a period of operation, but he did not expect that in less than 24 hours, things had already come to fruition.

"Comrade Yuan Weimin, the provincial government has decided to hand over the important task of managing the Public Security Department to you. I hope that from today on, you can accept this heavy responsibility, make your contribution to the public security situation of the entire Ducheng Province, and return a clear sky to the people of Ducheng Province as soon as possible." Feng Sizhe said to Yuan Weimin very solemnly.

"Yes." Yuan Weimin answered excitedly.

This is not to say that Yuan Weimin is greedy for power. It is because he really wants to do something for the people of Ducheng Province. His motto as an official is to do his job well. In the past, he had no power, so when he saw some unfair things happening, he could not try his best to change anything. But now it is different. He is in charge of the work of the Public Security Department, which means he has power in his hands. When he does his work in this area, no one can say anything.

"Very good, Comrade Weimin, just boldly do what you have in mind. I will fully support you." Feng Sizhe looked at Yuan Weimin and said hopefully.

"Please rest assured, Governor. I will do my best to improve the public security situation in Capital Province." Yuan Weimin sounded like he was making a vow, but it was also a statement.
