Liao Mingliang took out a small notebook from his pocket and said, "I'm going to report to you."

As he said that, he opened the notebook and looked for a while, and continued, "Start with Qi Bo, he has basically been a criminal policeman for the rest of his life, and has been the director of the Erdaohe District Public Security Bureau for more than 20 years, until he retires.

I learned through several retired Erdaohe cadres with deep qualifications that Qi Bo has good reactions during his term of office and has also solved several major cases.

The only thing that makes people criticize is that during his more than 20-year term, Erdaohe evil forces were rampant, and there was no big improvement until he retired.

When he retired, he nominated his deputy Ouyangguang to take over his position. Ouyangguang has been in office for five years and has performed mediocrely, and it can be said that he has made no achievements.

Until Ouyangguang retired, you promoted Luo Yumei to serve as the director of Erdaohe District. As a result, she only took three years to deal a heavy blow to the evil forces in Erdaohe, so that some gangs moved their base camp out of Erdaohe.

Unfortunately, Luo Yumei did not escape the black hand's plan in the end. I think although Luo Yumei's death may be related to Erdaohe's Yin-Yang contract case, it cannot be ruled out that the underworld forces take the opportunity to take revenge."

"Does Qi Bo have any personal background?" Lu Tao asked.

Liao Mingliang said: "I did try to figure this out, but the time you gave was too short, and Qi Bo was eighty-four years old. When he was the director, we were all younger generations.

Therefore, it is really difficult to figure out this problem, at least it takes time. However, there is no person in Qi Bo's family who is better than him. Even though Qi Bo had some social relations before, he has basically retired and returned home now."

"Where are his children?" Lu Tao asked.

Liao Mingliang said: "Qi Bo has a son and two daughters. His son Qi Wei should be around 46 or 7 years old. His situation is not very clear. It is said that he works in another place.

His eldest daughter is Qi Zhen, who is 42 years old this year. You should know that she is currently the deputy director in charge of administrative affairs of Erdaohe District Public Security Bureau, and her husband works in the local industrial and commercial department.

The youngest daughter Qi Yan looks about 34 or 35 years old and has not yet started a family. She is currently running the catering and entertainment industry in Erdaohe.”

"So Qi Bo has no contact with Secretary Tang's family or Ouyang family?" Lu Tao asked.

Liao Mingliang shook his head and said, "Although you haven't told me the intention to investigate this matter, I have guessed it a little bit. Although Qi Bo's successor is also surnamed Ouyang, he has nothing to do with the Ouyang Yunsu family, but it just happens to be surnamed Ouyang."

As he was talking, Duan Yifeng's cell phone suddenly rang, picked it up and looked at the telephone signal, and said, "I'll go out and answer the phone."

After Duan Yifeng went out, Liao Mingliang whispered: "If I was not mistaken, did the old leader interfere with the candidate for the director of Erdaohe District Public Security Bureau? Does he want Qi Bo's daughter to replace Luo Yumei?"

Lu Tao said thoughtfully: "I can't say I'm involved. He just gave me a suggestion. He thought that appointing a local public security chief would be more beneficial to local work than airborne from outside. I think it makes sense."

Liao Mingliang hesitated and said, "So you intend to let Qi Zhen take over Luo Yumei's position? Although I don't know Qi Bo, I still have some understanding of Qi Zhen's situation. If she was a suitable successor, I would have recommended it to you a long time ago."

Lu Tao said in confusion: "Do you think Qi Zhen is not suitable?"

Liao Mingliang hesitated and said, "It cannot be said that she is not suitable. It is undeniable that Qi Zhen's work ability and qualifications are pretty good, but the Public Security Bureau is a functional department for the purpose of solving cases. Qi Zhen at least has no experience in criminal investigation."

Lu Tao frowned and said, "It doesn't matter much if you don't have any experience in criminal investigation. You can give him an experienced deputy director at that time. What I am really worried about is whether this matter will have something to do with Ouyang Yunsu."

Liao Mingliang nodded and said, "I understand what you mean and what you are trying to do. Since Secretary Tang spoke, it was just a suggestion in name, but you have to consider it seriously."

Lu Tao didn't say for a while, and finally said, "The position of the director of Erdaohe District Public Security Bureau cannot be empty all the time. I think that after I go to work, I will hold a party committee meeting in the bureau. I can let Qi Zhen be the acting director first and observe for a while before talking about it."

Liao Mingliang said: "I have no objection. I will inspect the deputy director in charge of criminal investigation in several branches to see if there are any suitable people."

As he was talking, Duan Yifeng walked in and said, "Zhou Jiyao is going to arrange a task for me again. He is fine. Let's just hand over the task of rescuing Dai Jialang to me."

Lu Tao said in surprise: "What? Zhou Jiyao called you personally?"

Duan Yifeng shook his head and said, "The phone call was from Zhao Yu. He didn't seem to know that it was Zhou Jiyao's arrangement for Dai Jialang to enter the detention center. He sounded a little anxious and asked me to find a way to settle this matter."

Lu Tao said: "Needless to say, this is what Zhou Jiyao means. Maybe you were already a part of his planning when he arranged for Dai Jialang to enter the detention center.

Dai Jialang is your soldier, you can't stand by death and refuse to save him. Besides, the matter is not too serious. More importantly, Zhou Jiyao may also want to use this matter to test you again. It seems that you need to come forward to help Zhou Jiyao fulfill this wish."

Duan Yifeng said, "That's all. To be honest, even if I don't come forward, Zhou Jiyao can settle it himself. Why don't you give me this favor?"

Liao Mingliang said: "Don't worry, let Dai Jialang contact Xu Ruijun first. It is not impossible to get some clues if you are lucky."

Duan Yifeng hesitated and said, "Do you want to say hello to Lao Zhang in the detention center?"

Lu Tao waved his hand and said, "No, we'd better not interfere. Everything should be done. Don't backfire. Wait until Dai Jialang and Xu Ruijun have come into contact with him."

Duan Yifeng nodded, stood up and said, "It's my turn to be on duty in the game tonight. You two will drink slowly, I'll take a step first."

After Duan Yifeng left, Liao Mingliang and Lu Tao had another drink and said, "Old Lu, why do I think you are worried? Is it because of Qi Zhen's business? To be honest, Qi Zhen has been a police officer for more than ten years, and he is not without any experience..."

Lu Tao waved his hand and interrupted Liao Mingliang's words, saying with a worried look: "Don't you understand what I'm worried about? The old leader is concerned about the work in the bureau, so of course I can't refuse it.

But I really don’t know Qi Bo, and I don’t even know Qi Zhen very well. However, after I became the director of the Municipal Bureau, I have heard some rumors about Erdaohe, but it is not verified.

To be honest, I can appoint a mediocre police chief. At worst, I can do nothing like Ouyangguang, but I have never caused too much trouble, but I must not lead a wolf into the house, you understand."

Liao Mingliang stared at Lu Tao and said, "Since you have concerns, why not refuse directly? After all, the old leader has retired. Respecting him is one thing, and organizational principles are another."

Lu Tao did not respond to Liao Mingliang's words, but said: "That day, Secretary Tang said that Secretary Li of the Municipal Political and Legal Affairs Committee was about to retire, and the Municipal Party Committee might consider letting me hold this position as a part."

Liao Mingliang smiled and said, "It's a good thing."

Lu Tao pondered for a moment and said, "But the old leader mentioned this matter immediately after he proposed the candidate for the director of Erdaohe Public Security Bureau."

Liao Mingliang whispered: "You mean he gave you some hint?"

Lu Tao didn't say anything.

Liao Mingliang said: "If this is the case, I think you might as well take the position of Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee first, and only by being in his position can you plan your politics.

The situation is grim at the moment. If you don’t have the power, handling a case will be in the way. From the overall perspective, how can the director of a branch in Erdaohe be compared with the position of the secretary of the Municipal Political and Legal Committee?"

"Do you think I'm making a deal with the old leader?" Lu Tao asked staring at Liao Mingliang.

Liao Mingliang snorted, "So even if the transaction is done, power is a weapon for us to fight against criminals. However, I am also puzzled, how could the old leader personally speak to you for the position of a branch director of Erdaohe? This is not his style.

I think it was mostly Ouyang Yunsu who blew the breeze beside him. Although the Qi family and the Ouyang family have no direct relationship, Ouyang Yunsu came from Erdaohe after all, and they have relationships in all aspects there. Who knows if the Qi family members took Ouyang Yunsu's path?"

Lu Tao took a few sips of cigarettes in his head, as if he finally made up his mind, picked up the wine glass and drank it all, and said, "It's settled, let Qi Zhen be the acting director first.

As for whether she can remove the word "daily", that's her own business. Maybe the old leader is really concerned about the public security situation there. After all, he has worked there for more than 20 years, so he still has feelings."

Liao Mingliang smiled and said, "You don't need to worry, and you don't need to find a way for yourself. We are not politicians. But don't worry, I will pay attention to the dynamics on Erdaohe anytime and anywhere, and I will also secretly observe Qi Zhen's performance after taking office.

I think you should call the old leader on your own initiative. It would be boring to wait for him to call you. I guess you must have gone to the old leader’s house empty-handed on the first day of the Lunar New Year. The New Year has not yet finished, and he should like your gift.”

Lu Tao stood up and smiled and said, "Old Liao, I think you are more politician than politicians now. Sometimes I think you are more flexible than me and more suitable to be the director of the public security bureau."

When I was chatting, I stood up and smiled and said, "Old Lu, are you hinting at me? If you don't leave this position as director for me after you are promoted, I will be anxious with you." After that, the two of them laughed and left the restaurant.
