On February 10, 1954, the Hebei Provincial People's Court finally sentenced Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan to death and immediately executed them. When the people heard this news, the whole country rejoiced for a while, and these two big corrupt officials were finally arrested at this time!
Born in 1916, Liu Qingshan grew up in a poor peasant family, and when he grew up, he could only work as a hired worker, and his life was extremely difficult. Growing up in such an environment, he was well aware of the importance of overthrowing the landlords and resisting foreign enemies, so when he was young, he had the ambition to serve the country, and in 1931 he joined our party through inspection, and directly participated in the War of Resistance Against Japan and the War of Liberation, in which he made great contributions.
Therefore, after 1949, Liu Qingshan was assigned to the Tianjin area as a leader and became a secretary of the prefectural party committee. The organization had great expectations for him, but after taking office, Liu Qingshan, who tasted the sweetness of money and power, changed from a heroic hero who served the country and the people to a completely corrupt official.
And Zhang Zishan's experience with Liu Qingshan is not too different. Zhang Zishan was born in 1914, his family was well-off, he received an education in new ideas at an early age, personally experienced the period of ideological awakening after the May Fourth Movement, and also studied Marxism-Leninism, which was a rare talent at that time.
Therefore, Zhang Zishan joined the party in 1933, and later threw himself into the War of Resistance Against Japan and the War of Liberation, facing the encirclement and interception of the Nationalist army, Zhang Zishan used his wisdom to save countless patriots. His performance on the battlefield is also very prominent, especially in propaganda and other aspects. Therefore, after 1949, Zhang Zishan was also assigned to Tianjin and became the deputy secretary of the Tianjin Prefectural Party Committee, thus meeting Liu Qingshan.
After Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan teamed up, they could be said to have a similar smell, and after they arrived in Tianjin, they enjoyed the taste of power, and they began to become more and more decayed and degenerate, completely forgetting their original intention when they participated in the revolution.
They fought for their power, first of all, they began to form gangs and factions in the local area, rewarded and promoted those who supported themselves, suppressed and persecuted those who opposed them, and completely regarded Tianjin as their own territory, and the entire bureaucratic system in Tianjin became a hall of words for Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan.
Liu Qingshan even said bluntly in front of countless subordinates: "Lao Tzu has desperately fought the world, how about enjoying it?" Lao Tzu fights the world, and the boys come to enjoy! There can only be 'one head' and 'one leader' in the Tianjin Prefectural Committee! "It seems that the law of the land is no longer taken seriously."
After they built up their power, they began to embezzle. All kinds of construction funds allocated by the state to Tianjin, disaster relief grain, water conservancy subsidies, and even welfare subsidies for the families of cadres and peasants' wages, and so on, are greedy and greedy, and they can be deducted as much as they can.
According to statistics, in the year from 1950 to 1951 alone, they embezzled a total of 2.9 billion yuan from local grain payments! In the name of building local projects, they also defrauded a total of 6 billion yuan from banks, and then used them to open shops and factories to operate illegally. According to statistics, in the 2 years that Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zi were good at serving in Tianjin, they embezzled a total of 17.162.72 million yuan!
At that time, China used the first set of renminbi, the value of the currency is very large, and the exchange of the new currency with the later is based on 10,000:1 to convert, so this 17.16272 million, in fact, is equivalent to more than 1.71 million yuan. This amount of money may not be a very large amount now, but according to the purchasing power, the 1.71 million yuan of that year can now reach a total of more than 300 million yuan!
Moreover, at that time, when our country was waiting for a hundred wastes to be rebuilt, the people generally could not eat enough, and a large part of the money embezzled by Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan was the grain money allocated by the state to the people, and people were waiting for this money to eat, but They were enriched by Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan, and the harm was extremely great.
Therefore, in 1952, after Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan's embezzlement was revealed, they were sentenced to death shortly after. And some of the money they embezzled was also recovered, but it still caused great damage to our country.
When Liu Qingshan died, his eldest son was only 6 years old, his second son was only 4 years old, and his younger son had just been born not long ago. Just as the so-called misfortune is not enough for the family, Liu Qingshan's wife and children are not implicated. Since then, Liu Qingshan's wife Fan Yong has lived alone with her three sons, not only living a very difficult life, but also being coldly watched by others.
Later, the organization could not watch it, and finally decided that the organization would take care of the two innocent children until they had achieved success in their studies and grew up. And Liu Qingshan's son can also be regarded as a quarrel, the eldest son Liu Tieqi's college entrance examination results can even go to Tsinghua, but finally went to the Beijing Petroleum Institute, when the dean learned that Liu Tieqi's father was a corrupt official Liu Qingshan, for a while, in order to be difficult, after asking his superiors and obtaining permission, Liu Tieqi went to college, and then became an oil worker, married and had children, and lived in a down-to-earth manner.
As for the two younger brothers of the Liu family, they have no achievements in learning, and the second son, Liu Tiejia, could only make a living by weaving baskets, but under the introduction of Liu Tieqi and passed the relevant examinations, he became an oil worker. The youngest son, Liu Tiebing, became a coal miner, and although he worked hard, his life was stable and peaceful.
However, if Liu Qingshan had not colluded with Zhang Zishan to engage in corruption, his family's life would naturally be much better, and he would not have been blinded by people. Fortunately, the organization of Liu Qingshan is indeed meritorious, and it is more appropriate to deal with his family, which can gain a foothold in society.
Corrupt officials have been reviled by thousands of people since ancient times, but in ancient times, they were going to be cursed by the Nine Tribes, and when Hezhen was raided by the Jiaqing Emperor, his descendants did not have a good life. Therefore, the Liu family's harvest of such an ending can also be regarded as the end of our benevolence and righteousness.
