Faced with the questioning from Environment Minister Wei Dong, the expressions of the deputy mayors and the mayor looked a little ugly.

No matter how you said it, Wei Dong was their subordinate, and it was a taboo in officialdom to contradict the leader by speaking like this.

However, Wei Dong obviously couldn’t care about it. When he saw the report submitted by the subordinate department, his anger surged upwards and he couldn’t suppress it.

The first person to have an attack was Zhou Qian. His face was gloomy today. Maybe it was because of Zhang Xiaoli’s incident.

He was already very irritable. He was also involved in this matter. As soon as Wei Dong came up, he slapped the table. ‘Who do you think you are? The deputy mayor hasn’t slapped the table yet!’

Zhou Qian sneered, “Does Minister of Environment think there is something wrong with our city’s economic and social construction? The central government has said that now we focus on economic construction. Minister, are you going to oppose the central government’s decision?”

Ha, Zhou Qian was such a big liar, he really didn’t blink an eye.

Economic construction as the center didn’t mean only economic construction. Zhou Qian deliberately misinterpreted the document issued by the central government. The tone of the construction was there, but did it mean that there was nothing except the economic sector?

Chengzhou was still building a national-level garden city. In the last selection of a famous international environmental magazine, it became one of the ten cities with the most development potential in the world.

It had a beautiful environment and very attractive humanistic customs. It was a suitable city. Residential City – If the Warwick Group approved by them a few weeks ago moves into Chengzhou, it would definitely add a heavy stumbling block to Chengzhou’s progress in building a garden city.

Garden City was Wei Dong’s biggest political performance goal. As long as he achieved results during his term, there would be no problem in being promoted in the future.

Moreover, Wei Dong had been the Minister of Environment for two terms. He initiated the Chengzhou Garden City plan. If it was really completed, he would have the greatest credit.

People from the Ministry of Environment would come this time next year, to reviewing the situation and deciding whether to grant a title for the man, it would be strange if Wei Dong didn’t get angry when the Warwick Group incident was brought up at such a critical moment.

Jiang Xiaochuan looked through his own information out of blue. He put his other hand on his overlapping thighs and gently tapped his knees with his fingertips. He looked extremely leisurely.

Wei Lai looked over from behind and could only see Jiang Xiaochuan’s slightly lowered profile, his fingers bent, tapping silently on his knees – why did he feel that Jiang Xiaochuan’s leisurely behavior was a bit too much at this time?

He didn’t seem to be surprised by the scene before him, and even wanted to watch a good show – Wei Lai believed in his feelings.

In fact, this was the case. Jiang Xiaochuan really wanted to see a good show.

Zhou Qian put a big green-hat on Wei Dong.

Wei Dong wasn’t a fuel-efficient lamp. Once a person was motivated by interests, he couldn’t burst out with endless potential and courage, so Wei Dong exploded again.

He said “ha” directly. He laughed and then cursed: “Don’t blame me. Where is the prerequisite for economic construction? The bids they gave are all problematic. How can such investment promotion be passed?! You passed such a resolution? They just want to push me to death! In short – I oppose this resolution!”

A senior municipal official opposed a huge investment promotion resolution. This was rare in Chengzhou, and he still used such a firm tone. Speaking out, if his opinions were not seriously considered, Wei Dong was likely to make the matter worse, which was really tricky.

Generally speaking, such a scene would never happen at a conference. People who had been in the officialdom for a long time woud not speak easily. They would just close their eyes and lowered their heads. When they shouldn’t speak, they would pretend to be mute…

In front of the Great Buddha, the people should speak in calm tone when he should speak. They should never open their mouth like a machine gun and attack his superiors like Wei Dong did – this was the behavior of an idiot.

Such a fierce scene actually occurred, which was undoubtedly a bad signal.

Jiang Xiaochuan silently grasped the rhythm, and suddenly felt that the collapse of Chengzhou’s quagmire might be faster than the one he experienced in his previous life.

.

Today was a handover meeting for several major teams in the city. Now only their municipal officials came first. They originally wanted to finalize the agenda, but Wei Dong’s trouble completely disrupted the plan.

Mayor Fu Peng’s expression was ugly. Although Zhou Qian only had a few arguments with Wei Dong, the entire meeting was already out of control.

As the mayor, he couldn’t just sit back and watch, but once he intervened, Wei Dong’s firepower would probably turn to him. Today, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection would send people down to listen together.

The teams were about to arrive, and these people were only making trouble for him!

Fu Peng was so angry that he walked to the podium with a trembling beer belly, took the microphone and knocked it hard: “Why so fussy in a municipal meeting! You should pay attention to your identity; we are the municipal government. We must do a good job of unity and harmony. Whoever destroys the unity of the team is the enemy of the organization! We must firmly follow the line given to us by the Central Committee and move forward unitedly. What are you doing now?! Internal strife?! A municipal meeting but you made this mess-”

It was really rare for the mayor to get angry, so everyone fell silent.

Compared with weeks ago, Fu Peng’s high hat was even more sinister, and he directly turned the troublemakers into the enemies of the organization!

Jiang Xiaochuan sneered secretly, even when he was the governor, he had never been so evil-minded.

How did someone like Fu Peng succeed in being elected mayor?

Fu Peng wasn’t from Chengzhou City, and he only had a partial knowledge of Chengzhou affairs. Most of the time, he was restricted by the municipal party committee.

Li Dakai, the secretary of the municipal party committee, wasn’t a fuel-efficient lamp. He relied on his wide network of contacts in the entire team.

He was stumbled by Fu Peng, but these things didn’t hinder Jiang Xiaochuan, so Jiang Xiaochuan usually just let it go- but he heard that Wei Dong encountered trouble with the procedures when he joined the party, and it was Li Dakai, secretary of the municipal party committee, who helped solve it.

However, Wei Dong’s direct boss should be Vice Mayor Lin Shanyi. Among the nine deputy mayors, Lin Shanyi happened to be in charge of the environment.

He knew that no one was supporting Wei Dong behind his back, so he wouldn’t dare to get angry at the deputy mayor whose position was much higher than his own, right?

He just didn’t know who would supporting the man—Vice Mayor Lin Shanyi or Municipal Party Committee Secretary Li Dakai?

Jiang Xiaochuan turned his head slightly to the right and saw Lin Shanyi, the deputy mayor in his thirties, sitting firmly next to him. This man had oily hair and a pink face. He looked like a successful person and usually paid great attention to his appearance. He could be considered a young one among the deputy mayors.

But his expression was too calm, as if he didn’t hear anything.

He acted too calm.

Jiang Xiaochuan calmly turned his gaze back to his information.

After being reprimanded by Mayor Fu Peng, Zhou Qian and Wei Dong could only hold back their anger, their faces as dark as the sky before a rainstorm.

Fu Peng suppressed his tone and said in a deep voice: “The affairs of Warwick Group have been finalized first. We will send people to coordinate the issues with the Ministry of Environment separately. I hope Comrade Wei Dong understands his position. I understand your hard work in Chengzhou, we must not do bad things with good intentions. How much employment can Warwick Group bring to Chengzhou? How much can it promote economic development? When the economy is good, other things will be good. Therefore, Comrade Wei Dong must start from this. Consider the overall situation and think carefully about your words and deeds. Don’t care about this matter this time. After all, you are also doing it for our Chengzhou. Comrade Wei Dong is a good comrade and an old comrade. I hope he will stop saying those irrational words.”

Wei Dong’s momentum was half weakened by Fu Peng’s soft and hard words. Veins popped out in the hand he grabbed the folder. It took him a long time to hold back the words.

He finally said, “I will definitely continue to contribute my strength to Chengzhou. Don’t worry, mayor.”

This seemingly serious matter was suppressed like this.

They all know that this issue couldn’t be discussed at this time – because people from the municipal committee will arrive soon.

Fu Peng took out the prepared speech and agenda, and began to check the work of each deputy mayor. He greatly praised the recent work of several economic departments, especially in the case of Warwick Group. Be stingy of your own reward.

This was undoubtedly a slap in the face to Wei Dong. He had said something about discussing later, but this rhythm didn’t seem like there was room for negotiation at all.

The subtext was – ‘Wei Dong, you are simply ignorant. It is absolutely correct for us to agree to Warwick’s entry and give it preferential policies.’

Wei Dong’s face was ugly, and his chest was rumbling, but he couldn’t say a word and could only endure it.

No matter what, the Ministry of Environment was always under Lin Shanyi. Fu Peng’s words actually indirectly slapped Lin Shanyi in the face.

After Fu Peng’s praise, even Lin Shanyi’s expression darkened.

Finally, it was Jiang Xiaochuan’s turn.

He raised his head from the information and looked at Fu Peng.

Everyone’s eyes became a little strange, looking at the youngest deputy mayor – many people who knew the inside story knew that Jiang Xiaochuan was actually in a lot of trouble this time.

Sure enough, as soon as Fu Peng opened his mouth, Jiang Xiaochuan frowned secretly.

“…Deputy Mayor Jiang has done a very good job. The public security situation in Chengzhou is still good, and he has also done a great job with the military region and the armed police. This fully proves Comrade Jiang Xiaochuan’s ability. But among these tasks, there are also shortcomings. The case of Rong Family’s Club has been pending for a long time. I saw the work report form submitted by Comrade Jiang Xiaochuan. It is a bit unreasonable to still indicate that this matter that has no doubts needs to be investigated again. Comrade Jiang Xiaochuan is rigorous and conscientious in his work,young people are formidable, and our entire municipal government must learn from him. Of course, there are also shortcomings. Some lower-level departments wrote to me and put forward some suggestions, hoping that Comrade Jiang Xiaochuan can improve his work. Now the whole country is maintaining it stability and harmony and build a new society, Chengzhou cannot lag behind. These cases must be solved quickly and an explanation given to the public. Comrade Jiang Xiaochuan’s work in this area needs to be strengthened.”

Ha, this was a hint to him to approve the reply quickly.

That case about Rong Shaobai?

Even Fu Peng had spoken out. How big is Rong Shaobai’s backer?

Jiang Xiaochuan’s fingers slowly stopped, his expression was calm, and he said, “I will listen to the mayor’s advice, don’t worry.”

So, Fu Peng thought he understood and finally ended the municipal affairs.

He said: “People from the Municipal Party Committee are coming, and this time the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection is also coming to inspect. What our team in Chengzhou is not afraid of the most is inspection. Everyone must show the good state of our municipal government…”

At half past ten, the door of the venue was pushed open.

Li Dakai, secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, came in with a group of people. He walked in front, but his gestures were showing the way for a young man next to him.

Jiang Xiaochuan’s eyes moved from Li Dakai to the young man, and memories of his past life came flooding back.

Finally, we meet again, Lian Cheng.
