Chapter 552: with translation of chapter title

What Tian Shi says is likely true; you know, in the city's recruitment, it will surely become a piece of meat in many people's eyes.

Only this way can one smoothly enter the city to work.

How many leaders' children are waiting for this opportunity,

Everyone knows that only by entering the system can one have a genuine formal job and a chance for advancement.

In this recruitment, many positions are in functional departments.

I believe many people will pull all kinds of strings to get Tian Shi to intervene in this.

In Zaocheng, even on a tiny plot of land, a single word from Tian Shi is still enough to easily get someone through the interview.

I quickly said, "Tian Shi, the Xiao Long matter—I'm asking you for this; this kid has always been with me, even closer than a biological son."

Li Ming just got stuck in a rut, letting people take advantage of him.

Actually, Li Ming's work ability is also quite strong.

Forget it, I won't bring him up; I hope Li Ming won't cause you any trouble.

Look what you said, Jianqiang—how could I ask for a favor? Between us, although we've known each other only briefly, we can talk openly.

I'll look at the child first, then we'll talk. Tomorrow afternoon at three, I'll make time to see Xiao Long. Tian Shi said.

All right, I'll let him know tomorrow and have Xiao Long come over. I said quickly.

Jianqiang, are you familiar with the Cui Family in Zaocheng? Tian Shi asked.

The Cui Family—I know they have considerable influence in Zaocheng, and in recent years many of them have entered jobs in Zao Chengshi.

The most formidable in their family is Cui Rulin, who once oversaw industry in the city; he should have retired by now.

The problem is many people retire but don't actually rest, which is troublesome. This Cui Rulin, jumping around, using his family's influence, specifically creates difficulties for my work.

He is trying every means to push me out of Zaocheng.

After Kong Shi stepped down this time, it's said he then plotted a way out for his son.

He plotted a way out. His son, Cui Chengshan, is currently the county head of Xue County, hoping for further promotion, but the higher-ups gave the opportunity to me.

This way his son lost the opportunity. Between me and him, it has become outright hostility.

Cui Rulin believes that if he drives me out of Zaocheng, his son can get promoted. So this old fellow, joining many of his family members, formed the Cui Clan Association.

Then they held multiple secret meetings.

Their gatherings have only one purpose: to get rid of me so that Cui Chengshan can be further promoted.

Now, regarding Li Ming's matter, they are pressing hard.

Actually, Li Ming also has connections with that Cui Rulin.

When Li Ming stirs up trouble, it's Cui Rulin who's inciting him.

For now I've only heard rumors; I don't know the details.

After they saw Li Ming go in, they again accused me of favoritism and of handling the case too lightly.

In short, they are just making excuses.

Jianqiang, my work is now hard to carry out. Tian Shi said to me.

Upon hearing Tian Shi say that, my heart instantly understood.

Tian Shi had me definitely help deal with Cui Ruhai.

Tian Shi's words already made it clear that they are using Li Ming to stir up trouble.

Now they have stirred up trouble.

And they are making excuses, which could turn out badly.

The Li Ming matter will not only be dealt with severely, but it will also affect Tian Shi's career prospects.

Tian Shi and I are currently in the honeymoon phase of our relationship.

Everyone is slowly developing cooperation on many matters.

He helps with the Qi He Kuang matter.

The Xiao Long matter also needs his help.

In short, we cannot do without Tian Shi.

Regarding Xiao Long's matter, if Tian Shi doesn't readily agree, that already explains the problem.

I took a puff of a cigarette,

"Tian Shi, what do you need me to do? Speak up. Between us we are already friends who can talk about anything."

"As long as I, Zhao Jianqiang, can do it, Tian Shi, just say the word—it's a simple matter."

"Jianqiang, I help you, you help me, everyone thinks about helping."

"This Cui Rulin is too annoying, barking and biting like a dog every day; I'm already thoroughly angry. But as for him, I temporarily can't do anything about him."

"If he keeps shouting, the impact will be too great; Li Ming, I also can't protect him, and Li Ming might even face a heavy sentence."

"If Li Ming gets a heavy sentence, it will be very hard for Xiao Long to want to work in the city."

"This is all a chain of interlocking links."

"I really don't want to hear him shout anymore; I want him to shut up—do you have any way?" Tian Shi looked at me and asked.

"Tian Shi, leave this matter to me."

"How long do you say you don't want to hear him shout again?" I said directly.

"Maybe ten days—can you solve this problem within ten days?" Tian Shi asked.

"Then ten days. Within ten days, I guarantee I'll make Cui Rulin behave." I said.

Tian Shi smiled satisfactorily,

"Jianqiang, tomorrow I want to have a good chat with Xiao Long about his hidden talents—what can this kid do?"

"He has many specialties; you ask and you'll understand. This Xiao Long kid guarantees to satisfy you." I laughed.

Then we both laughed happily.

After a pause, Tian Shi continued: "The matter of Qi He Kuang has been settled. Originally, this Qi He Kuang didn't need to pay anything at all, but it was Cui Rulin who stirred things up from behind, deliberately increasing your costs."

"I never expected that there would be such great hatred between me and Cui Rulin."

"Yeah, as long as we deal with this guy, our things can proceed smoothly. By the way, when will Qi He Kuang start production?" Tian Shi asked.

I said: "Only after the procedures are completed should we be able to start production soon. Tian Shi, the matter of Qi He Kuang still needs your extra attention. Without the support of Zaocheng Mining Group, the coal we produce will have no market."

"In that case, Qi He Kuang won't be able to hold out for long either."

"This is easy to say, but I've been busy lately and can't get away. This matter, I must personally meet with my old classmate to discuss it."

"Only in this way can we resolve the matter of Qi He Kuang."

"Zaocheng Mining Group's annual output value reaches several billion yuan; this small amount of money is nothing to them." Tian Shi said.

"All right, Tian Shi, I'll entrust this matter to you; I won't interfere further. I just need to guarantee safe production." I said.

"Certainly. We must produce safely. Jianqiang, it's getting late; we've finished what we needed to discuss. I also need to go rest; I have a meeting early tomorrow morning, which is really annoying." Tian Shi stood up and said.

"Holding meetings also trains one's will. Tian Shi, believe me, it won't be annoying in the future." I hurriedly stood up,

shaking hands with Tian Shi, I said,

Tian Shi laughed and said: "Jianqiang, that makes sense."

Tian Shi then pushed open the door and left.

After Tian Shi left, I also came out of the meeting room.

I went straight back to my room,

When I reached the room, I thought Shi Yong hadn't returned yet.

I turned on the light and saw Shi Yong lying on the bed, snoring loudly.

Looking at the sleeping Shi Yong,

I just wanted to ask him how the experience with Hou Laoban's method was.

But I couldn't bear to wake him; it looks like he's exhausted today.

The effect should be good, right.

Forget it, don't disturb his sweet dream.

At this moment I went into the bathroom to wash up,

After washing up, I went to bed to rest.

I lay on the bed, listening to Shi Yong's snoring, and felt very reassured.

I was thinking about what Tian Shi said tonight,

I had already promised him to deal with Cui Rulin within ten days,

As for how to deal with Cui Rulin, I have no idea at all.

Let's sleep first; we'll think about it tomorrow.
