Even the special funds争取ed from the superiors must bribe Ren Jumeng in order to be disbursed in time. Many departments and enterprises and institutions often争取 special funds from the superior units due to business needs, but according to regulations, they must be disbursed by the county finance bureau. On the eve of the Spring Festival in 2006, a certain bureau争取ed a construction special fund from its superior. In order to obtain the fund as soon as possible, the head of the bureau bought two famous paintings and sent them together with 10,000 yuan cash to Ren Jumeng. Soon after, this 100,000 yuan construction fund was fully disbursed to the bureau.

In July 1997, he was promoted to be the county magistrate assistant and concurrently the director of the finance bureau.

Once the door of greed is opened, it can no longer be closed. "During the 11 years I served as the director of the finance bureau, because of my special position, I controlled all the financial funds in the county. Especially, the disbursement of the county's financial funds must be agreed and approved by me. Therefore, some units and individuals were willing to build relations with me and even gave me money multiple times, which I accepted without hesitation." Facing the prosecutor, Ren Jumeng admitted frankly.

In February 1996, Ren Jumeng was appointed as the director of Qihe County Finance Bureau.

To save money, he would get up early on weekends to queue up at the supermarket entrance with a group of old men and women, just to buy eggs that were only one cent cheaper per pound;

In December 1978, Ren Jumeng was assigned to work in the township and became a formal cadre of the state. He started as the publicity commissioner of the township party committee and eventually became the secretary of the township party committee. Due to Ren Jumeng's "understanding of economics and strong ability", his township was rated as advanced year after year.

In November 1952, Ren Jumeng was born into a farmer's family in Kongzhuang Village, Biaoshai Town, Qihe County.

Where should we start? Ren Jumeng recalled by counting on his fingers. There were simply too many departments and units involved. The investigators took out a telephone directory of Qihe County's Party and government public institutions and said, "Let's go through the roster unit by unit." Ultimately, the investigators were astonished to find that almost none of the units under fiscal disbursement escaped Ren Jumeng's hands in the entire directory. As long as a unit applied for fiscal disbursement, Ren Jumeng would always try to "take advantage" in every possible way. From 10,000 to 20,000 yuan, to 30,000 to 40,000 yuan, the highest amount was 100,000 yuan, and the smallest bribe he ever received was only 500 yuan.

The time goes back to 9:00 AM on April 19th this year. At that time, four prosecutors dressed in civilian clothes from the Dezhou City procuratorial organs took away an elderly man who was waiting for his flour to be ground here. This gray-haired, sturdy elder did not look particularly different from the outside, but his identity in Qihe was extremely prominent - he was Ren Jumeng, the former vice chairman of the Qihe County Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and the former director of the Finance Bureau. By this time, more than three years had passed since his retirement at the end of 2007.

After being arrested, for a period of time, Ren told his family to bring him some duck eggs from home, saying that the duck eggs in the detention center cost one yuan each and were more expensive than those outside.

Two kilometers south of Qihe County town, there is a suburban village called Beiguo Village. Beside the road next to the village is a small grove. In this grove, there is an inconspicuous little mill where 50-year-old miller Old Wei opens the door punctually every morning. However, who would have thought that in Old Wei's little mill half a year ago, a shocking event happened - Ren Jumeng, the former director of Qihe County Finance Bureau, was captured here.

Old Wei easily remembered some details: the person was dressed very plainly, and every time he came, he rode an old-fashioned large-wheel bicycle that is rarely seen nowadays, "except for the bell, everything else rattled." Before being taken away that day, he asked Old Wei to weigh the corn and soybeans that had not been ground yet, record them in a notebook, and then left with the prosecutors with peace of mind.

In 1970, after graduating from high school, Ren Jumeng returned to his hometown to farm. He soon became a competent barefoot doctor.

According to reports by the Mass Daily, 176 deposit slips, 11.94 million yuan in huge sums, made him unable to sleep well every day; whenever he heard about corrupt officials being sentenced, he compared himself and secretly calculated how many years of imprisonment he might receive; ultimately, the court sentenced him to 18 years in prison for bribery, embezzlement, and possession of huge amounts of property with unclear sources, and confiscated 600,000 yuan of his personal property. From an ordinary farmer to a civil servant, from a township cadre to the director of the county finance bureau, in the process of crazily pursuing money, he gradually fell into the abyss of crime. He is Ren Jumeng, the former director of Qihe County Finance Bureau (Shandong).

Among the materials provided by the prosecution, there is no clear indication of when Ren Jumeng began to become corrupt. But according to his own introduction, initially, shortly after taking office, he refused, hesitated, and was afraid of the money that was offered to him. In the end, he could not resist the attack of money, "If you walk by the river often, how can you avoid wetting your shoes? Since your shoes are already wet, you might as well take a bath," and he convinced himself in this way.

The least amount of bribe he once received was 500 yuan.

The special funds allocated by the higher authorities became another channel for him to make money. A certain bureau is a public institution. The director, due to his seniority, and because his own unit is a differential allocation unit, mainly relies on self-raised income to maintain operations, with a small part relying on special allocations, usually does not take Ren Jumeng seriously. In 2005, the superior allocated a 200,000 yuan equipment special fund to the bureau, but Ren Jumeng refused to allocate it for various reasons. Helplessly, the director sought him out. Finally, Ren Jumeng took out a receipt for 18,000 yuan worth of books from the drawer, citing the excuse of helping sell them, and asked the director to help handle it. The director knew it was a disguised demand for money and angrily took the receipt back. Unable to send the money, the fund was not disbursed. Helplessly, he had to deliver the full amount of 18,000 yuan to Ren Jumeng. After receiving the money, Ren Jumeng complained to the director upon their next meeting, saying that gasoline was too expensive and he couldn't afford to drive his newly bought private car, and asked the director for a 2,000 yuan fuel card. Although the director was unwilling, he had to comply for the sake of future work.

According to the investigators, Ren Jumeng was extremely uncooperative and refused to confess his crimes after his return. After a battle of wits, Ren Jumeng began to confess.

Upon investigation by the procuratorate, by the end of 2007 when Ren Jumeng stepped down from his leadership position, during his 11 years serving as the director of the finance bureau, he accumulated 176 deposit slips. Most of the deposits were less than 50,000 yuan, using over ten people's names, totaling 11.94 million yuan.

After Ren Jumeng became the director of the county finance bureau, more and more units and individuals sought favors from this "god of wealth."

In January 2003, Ren was appointed as the vice-chairman of the county committee of the CPPCC and the assistant county magistrate, continuing to concurrently serve as the director of the finance bureau.
