Chapter 241, Dongzhimen Grain Management Office
Dongzhimen Grain Management Office is affiliated to the DC District Grain Bureau of the Imperial Capital and is one of the six grain offices under the jurisdiction of the DC District Grain Bureau.
It is in charge of the food supply of several streets and dozens of large and small units around Dongzhimen in DC District. It has several grain stations and more than ten grain stores under its jurisdiction.
The steel rolling mill is located just outside Dongzhimen, and the supply of grain falls under the jurisdiction of the Dongzhimen Grain Management Office.
According to past practice, at a fixed time every week, the grain buyers of the steel rolling mill and the truck drivers would go to the Dongzhimen Grain Station on time with grain stamps and cash to apply for grain allocation.
Since the public-private partnership, the two entities have been working very happily together without any problems.
However, I never expected that something went wrong in today's food purchase. The food stamps I brought contained highly realistic fake food stamps. Now the purchaser and several drivers were detained in the grain station.
On the second floor of the Office Building of the Grain Management Office, there is the office of the deputy director.
At this time, the deputy director's office was not peaceful.
The deputy director of the grain institute, three grain payers, the security section chief and two security officers were questioning and investigating Xu Xiangqian, the grain buyer at the steel rolling mill, and several truck drivers.
In the office, deputy director Zhao Xingguo, who was sitting behind the main desk, glanced gloomily at the buyer Xu Xiangqian and several drivers present.
Pointing to the two stacks of food stamps, one large and one small, on the desk, he asked, "Xu Purchasing, tell me, what's going on with the food stamps you brought today? Why are there such huge amounts of fake food stamps?" "
"I don't know."
"Don't you know about the food stamps you brought?"
"I really don't know. It was like this when the food stamps came into my hands. I...I was wronged."
The purchaser Xu Xiangqian was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and his face was frightened and helpless. He did not expect that in front of everyone, the food stamps that came out of his hand were found to be fake. Now he was really unable to argue. .
Captain Guo of the transportation team and several truck drivers standing aside didn't know what to say for a while. As the drivers responsible for transportation and security, they also bear joint and several responsibilities.
After hearing Xu Xiangqian's answer, no one spoke at the scene. The grain payers, security officers, and section chiefs all looked at him with distrust, waiting for Zhao Xingguo to speak.
Deputy Director Zhao Xingguo was silent, his face expressionless, but his heart was already filled with anger, and he wanted to tear Xu Xiangqian alive right away.
Today's Dongzhimen Grain Management Office is at an important moment when the old and the new are replacing each other, and the old director is preparing to retire.
Dongzhimen Grain Co., Ltd. has three directors, one chief and two deputy directors. After the old director retires, the vacant director position will be created between him and another deputy director.
He, Zhao Xingguo, is only forty years old this year. He is at an age when he is strong and enterprising.
Now that the old director is about to retire, with his own ability and the connections behind him, he is very confident that he can defeat his opponent and take another step forward.
However, he never expected that at such a critical moment, the steel rolling mill he was in charge of contacting would actually trick him.
There was a big pile of coarse grain coupons totaling 40,000 catties on the table, and more than 800 catties of them were actually fake.
More than 800 kilograms of counterfeit notes. Even though their grain office handles hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain every month, it doesn't seem like much in comparison, but if there is a thunderstorm, it will definitely be enough for him to drink a pot.
The patterns, styles and fonts drawn on the counterfeit bills are extremely realistic, and even the paper material used is the same.
Except for slight differences in ink tone and cutting size, everything else was almost the same, and the food payers in charge almost didn't notice it.
Zhao Xingguo felt both happy and annoyed at the same time. If it weren't for the mature and prudent paymaster under him, who carefully checked the money receipt several times when checking it, he would definitely be the one who got kicked out today.
His first reaction at the time was that someone was trying to mess with him, but after carefully observing Xu Xiangqian's behavior in front of him several times, it didn't seem like it.
For a while, Zhao Xingguo was not sure whether it was a coincidence or someone did it deliberately.
Just as Zhao Xingguo was silently thinking, there was a "dong dong dong" knock on the office door.
"Come in." Zhao Xingguo shouted without raising his head.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone opened the door and walked in. It was Li Huaide and his party from the steel rolling mill.
"Sorry, Zhao Suo, I'm late."
As soon as he entered the room, Li Huaide said hello with a smile, walked closer, stretched out his hand to shake Zhao Xingguo's hand.
"Director Li, here you go."
Zhao Xingguo couldn't hold back when he saw someone who could speak. Even if the person they met was a head taller, Li Huaide's level was already a senior cadre, so he still had to give him the face he deserved, so Zhao Xingguo quickly got up and left the office. He came out from behind the table and shook hands with Li Huaide.
Li Huaide smiled politely, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at Zhao Xingguo's appearance, it seemed that it was easy to negotiate. When he came, he was worried that the Grain Office would be angry and directly reported to the branch to go through the procedures.
In this special era and economic system, the grain unit has a transcendent status compared to other units. If he really doesn't show mercy and follow procedures, he really has nothing to do.
Just like the previous meat joint factory, if people are willing to sell face, they will sell you face. If they are not willing to offend you, you can't do anything to them.
After shaking hands with Zhao Xingguo politely, Li Huaide glared at Xu Qianqian with an unyielding look, secretly annoyed.
When Xu Qianqian saw the leader glaring at him, he knew he was in the wrong, so he quickly shrank his head and stood aside, not daring to say a word.
After saying hello, Zhao Xingguo stretched out his hand and invited Li Huaide to sit down at the coffee table.
Li Weiguo, who followed behind, said "Huh" when he saw that the deputy director was Zhao Xingguo.
He also didn't expect that the person in charge of connecting with their steel rolling mill was Zhao Guobing's father, Zhao Xingguo, so he quickly stepped forward to say hello.
"Uncle Zhao."
Zhao Xingguo turned his head when he heard the sound and found that Li Weiguo was also there. He smiled, stretched out his hand, and invited them and the security guards to sit down together.
"It's Weiguo, come on, come on, come and sit together, haha."
He knew that Li Weiguo helped Zhao Guobing get the ingredients for the wedding banquet. For such a capable young man, he was happy to let his son Zhao Guobing get closer, and his attitude became much gentler.
Li Huaide, Dong Jianjun, secretary Xiao Wu and others at the scene saw that Li Weiguo and Zhao Xingguo were so familiar, and they couldn't help but look at him sideways. They didn't expect that he actually had such a relationship in the grain institute.
But that's okay. There are acquaintances at the grain store, so it's easier to talk to him if anything happens.
After everyone sat down, Zhao Xingguo called someone to help pour water, and then introduced the grain payers and security cadres in the steel rolling mill to everyone in the steel rolling mill, and also briefly talked about today's events.
After Zhao Xingguo finished introducing the situation, Li Huaide stopped his smile, looked at Xu Xiangqian standing in the corner with a gloomy look, and went straight to the topic.
"Xiao Xu, what's going on? Why did such a big mistake happen today? Also, where did so many fake bills come from?"
The counterfeit food stamps with a denomination of more than 800 pounds were not only enough for Zhao Xingguo to drink a pot, but also enough for him, Li Huaide, to stumble.
If we don't get to the bottom of things, Li Huaide will definitely be blamed. Who put him in charge of the logistics department? He will naturally be the first to come to him if something goes wrong.
Upon hearing the leader's question, Xu Xiangli quickly explained: "Director Li, I don't know. This is what the food stamps I received from the cashier looked like."
"I didn't expect that the food stamps I received from the cashier would contain fake stamps, and they were almost real. I didn't pay attention at the time and only counted the amount. Who would have thought that there were a lot of fake stamps mixed in."
After saying that, Xu Xiangqian had a sad expression on his face, looking like he was extremely unlucky.
"You mean the problem is with the cashier?" Li Huaide asked with a frown.
"Yes, after I received the money ticket from the cashier, I kept it in my bag and never opened it or touched it along the way."
"Who can prove it?"
"Captain Guo and several fellow driver masters can attest that in addition to driving, they are also responsible for protecting money, tickets and food."
"From collecting the money receipt to delivering it to the comrades on site and at the grain station, I was accompanied by them throughout the entire process. I guarantee that I did not do any manipulation."
