The crackdown on organized crime began with the arrest of the mother-in-law.

Chapter 386 Secretary Huang Zhen's Office

Lin Zhenguo could be said to have given Qin Chuan a position with unlimited possibilities. As for how well he can achieve it and when, that depends on his own abilities.

Xing'an City.

Before leaving this time, Qin Chuan made some other arrangements.

He used to work in Zhulin County and Ping'an County, and now that he's gone, it's uncertain when he'll return, so he wants to find some of his old colleagues to have a meal with.

After all, the criminal investigation teams in Zhulin County and Ping'an County are now staffed with people he arranged, and Zhang Jun is currently the deputy captain in charge of the criminal investigation team of the Xi'an High-tech Zone Branch.

It can be said that Qin Chuan is a loyal and righteous person, and those who followed him have all found good places to go.

The few people who came from Ping'an County back then didn't even hold any official positions, but now they are all captains of the criminal investigation teams in districts and counties.

Zhang Jun was originally the deputy captain of the criminal investigation team, in charge of the work. However, after Song Changfeng's case is over, he can remove his position as the deputy captain and become the captain.

In addition, Qin Chuan also visited Secretary Huang Zhen.

Huang Zhen greatly admired Qin Chuan.

The young man that the old leader's daughter has taken a liking to is no ordinary person.

Although Huang Zhen was the first person to give Qin Chuan a chance, and Huang Zhen was the one who arranged the transfer from Zhulin County to Ping'an County, it still depended on whether Qin Chuan had the ability.

As it turns out, Qin Chuan not only has this ability, but he is very capable of it.

What surprised Huang Zhen even more was that Lu Chuan and Qin Chuan managed to dismantle Song Changfeng's criminal gang in just three or four months in Xi'an High-tech Zone.

Moreover, he also ended up handing over the mayor's secrets to himself.

Although this matter may seem small, it actually helped Huang Zhen a lot, and also helped Lin Zhenguo's side.

Chen Guobiao backed down at the last minute and joined Lin Zhenguo's camp. It can be said that his future path is basically over. Even if Lin Zhiguo wants to promote him, there will definitely be people on the other side who will fight to the death to stop him.

After all, nobody likes being a traitor, and nobody likes having a teammate who is a traitor.

However, no matter what, although Chen Guo's future political career was over, he did not take off his official clothes after all; he was still the mayor of Xi'an.

Actually, the incriminating evidence Chen Guobiao had wasn't a big deal; it was simply that his child had been taken abroad by someone else who had paid for it.

What's the big deal about this? At most, it's just a disciplinary warning or something.

Given Chen Guobiao's status and position, what could happen even if he killed someone?

The severity of the crime is not the key factor; the crucial point is who has obtained this incriminating evidence.

If an ordinary citizen witnesses Chen Guobiao committing murder, what can they do to him? Even if he reports it to the police, they might not believe him.

However, when this relatively small piece of evidence falls into Huang Zhen's hands and becomes irrefutable, it can exert unimaginable power.

This one incident alone is enough to transfer Chen Guobiao from his current position.

While he might not necessarily be demoted, and could even become mayor of another city, Chen Guobiao's foundation will crumble once he leaves Xi'an.

If the higher authorities give it another push—and if Huang Zhen produces this evidence, they will definitely push even harder—Chen Guobiao will most likely be demoted.

In order to keep his position, Chen Guobiao had no choice but to defect.

"Come on, Qin Chuan, congratulations on this!"

In Huang Zhen's office, the Party Secretary was incredibly enthusiastic.

It can be said that thanks to Qin Chuan, Huang Zhen performed very well in Xi'an. Lin Zhenguo will take a further step in leading the entire Linjiang Province in two months, at which point Huang Zhen will probably no longer stay in Xing'an City.

Secretary Huang personally poured tea for Qin Chuan, who quickly accepted it with both hands, saying, "Thank you, Secretary Huang."

"Haha, there are no outsiders here, so please don't use your title in front of me. If you don't mind, just call me Uncle Huang."

Qin Chuan wouldn't mind at all.

Although Huang Zhen is not young, he is, after all, a deputy director-level cadre, and more importantly, he is Lin Zhenguo's staunch confidant.

Putting aside the fact that Huang Zhen arranged this crucial step of Qin Chuan's journey from Zhulin Line to Ping'an County, the support and assistance Huang Zhen provided in taking down Song Changfeng's criminal gang, as well as his unconditional trust, deserved Qin Chuan's utmost respect for Huang Zhen.

"Uncle Huang."

Qin Chuan took the teacup and opened the box beside him: "Yueting said that when you were young, you jumped into the river to save someone in the dead of winter and developed a leg ailment. This is a knee brace she brought back from the capital and asked me to give it to you."

Huang Zhen's rise to prominence began 30 years ago during a harsh winter when he was just a junior secretary.

On my way back to the dormitory after get off work, I passed a river and saw a child fall into it. Without regard for my own safety, I jumped in and rescued the child.

"It's rare that this girl still remembers. Please thank her for me later."

Huang Zhen was overjoyed to receive the knee pads from Qin Chuan.
