Chapter 1313: It Erupted After All!

A day later, Shi Jun received a notice from the personnel department that they were going to conduct an organizational inspection of him before his appointment.

Shi Jun returned home and told his mother the news at the first opportunity.

He waited for Shi Guangrong to return home from work.

His wife immediately stepped forward and told him the good news, "Your son has made something of himself; he is about to be promoted to Deputy Minister."

Shi Guangrong was somewhat surprised; his son was not the type to excel at his studies, so after failing the college entrance examination, he had sent Shi Jun directly to join the army.

After being discharged, he had followed relevant policies, found people himself, and used connections to arrange for him to enter the City Urban Investment Company.

Shi Guangrong did not have high demands for Shi Jun; holding an iron rice bowl and living a stable life was enough.

After dinner, Shi Guangrong called Shi Jun into the study.

"I heard you are getting a promotion?"

Shi Jun nodded and said, "Yes, I know it must be because you helped behind the scenes. I wronged you before, and I apologize to you!"

Shi Guangrong was slightly stunned and said in a serious tone,

"You are mistaken; I did not say a word to anyone. Your promotion is based on your own ability.

I hope you will calm your mind and not let joy cloud your judgment.

Now that you have power, you must remember one thing: absolutely do not have any problems regarding finances..."

Shi Jun thought to himself that his father was truly good at putting on an act; he had clearly asked someone to put in a good word long ago, yet he still pretended to be upright.

"Dad, don't worry, I won't lose face for you."

After Shi Jun left the study, a gratified smile appeared on the corner of Shi Guangrong's mouth.

Shi Jun had been tempered in the military for several years, and his personality was straightforward.

He had complained to him many times that he was not being valued at his workplace.

Occasionally, when his leaders went out to handle affairs, they would use him as a driver;

and he was never allowed to participate in business matters...

Shi Jun had always envied those colleagues who held real power.

Once he had real power, those bosses would treat him like a master.

Shi Guangrong did not know the thoughts deep within Shi Jun's heart.

He had a clear judgment of Shi Jun's abilities and had originally thought it would be difficult for his son to achieve great things,

but now that Shi Jun had been promoted, he simply thought his son had made great progress...

At ten o'clock in the morning, Tang Ye took a car to Lianhu Town.

Lianhu Town is located in the southwest of Yechuan. There is a large natural lake in the town named Lianhu.

Although it was not yet midsummer, the surface of the lake was already covered with layers of lotus leaves; as a clear breeze brushed past, the lotus leaves rose and fell in waves, which was refreshing and delightful.

A boss surnamed Wu took a fancy to the unique water resources here and planned to build a tourism and leisure Resort Project, with an initial investment amount of 30 million yuan.

Tang Ye had previously conducted research and inspections in Lianhu Town and secretly sighed in his heart that this Boss Wu had quite an eye for investment.

"Boss Wu, welcome to Yechuan for investment. Please rest assured, as long as the funds are in place, the County Party Committee and County Government will fully cooperate."

Wu Hao smiled and said, "County Magistrate Tang, I have confidence in Yechuan. I have learned about you; you are a good cadre with courage and drive. I believe our investment in Yechuan County will definitely achieve the expected returns."

At noon, Tang Ye and Wu Hao and others had a working meal in Lianhua Town.

After the meal, at the moment of parting,

Tang Ye proposed to the Town Party Committee Secretary Xia Xiang his planning idea of building Lianhu Town into a characteristic tourist town.

"Secretary Xia, actually Lianhua Town has good tourism resources, but the depth of current development is not enough."

Xia Xiang showed a look of difficulty, "County Magistrate Tang, our location is relatively remote, and tourists do not like to come."

Tang Ye laughed, "You need to change your mindset.

Good wine does not fear the depth of the alley.

The name Lianhua Town is full of poetic and picturesque charm.

Once the Resort Project is built and the supporting facilities are perfected, as long as you make a name for yourself, you won't have to worry about not having tourists.

The most urgent task is to carry out cultural reshaping for Lianhua Town.

I suggest using the lotus as the core theme to create a unique cultural tourism brand."

Xia Xiang was just worrying about how to achieve political achievements.

Tang Ye had undoubtedly pointed out a bright path for him.

"County Magistrate Tang, we will definitely take your ideas seriously."

Tang Ye instructed, "You draft a preliminary plan, and the county will work with you to do it.

Subsequently, we will connect with the provincial cultural tourism policies and actively strive for special project funds.

I believe Lianhua Town has great potential."

Returning from Lianhua Town to the County Government, they were almost at the government office.

The traffic ahead was congested, and the car was forced to stop.

Ma Ran immediately got out of the car, walked to the front to understand the situation, returned to the car, and reported in a low voice, "County Magistrate Tang, the County Government gate is surrounded by petitioning masses."

Tang Ye's expression was calm: "What is the reason?"

Ma Ran reported, "It is the residents of the Old City; they are dissatisfied with the Old City Renovation policy and have hung up banners to protest."

Tang Ye thought to himself that the issue of Old City Renovation had been suppressed by Han Zhengyi before, but it had erupted after all.

He instructed, "Get out of the car, walk!"

At the gate of the County Government, several banners were particularly eye-catching, with words such as "Protect Our Homeland" and "Down with Corrupt Officials" written on them.

Li Yongan, who was in charge of emergency management work, held a megaphone and loudly urged, "Fellow villagers, please calm down and elect five representatives to come in for a discussion and negotiation."

A chorus of jeers suddenly erupted from the crowd.

"Who do you think you are? Find someone who can actually make decisions to talk to us."

"You must give us a clear explanation today, otherwise we will absolutely not disperse."

Seeing the chaos below, Li Yongan felt a bit helpless and appeased them, "Everyone, do not crowd, do not get hurt, and pay attention to safety."

These words seemed to ignite their emotions.

Suddenly, three or four people rushed out from the crowd and charged toward the staff members.

"Everyone follow me and charge, let's go find the County Party Secretary to demand an explanation!"

"That's right, only the County Party Secretary's words carry weight!"

Tang Ye had originally intended to help Li Yongan control the situation.

In the chaos, he was unable to get close for the moment.

The gate of the County Government was forcibly pushed open by the crowd, and over a hundred people swarmed in.

The security personnel linked arms, struggling to form a human wall.

Li Yongan hurriedly ordered in a loud voice, "Physical conflict is strictly prohibited, everyone stay calm!"

"Push harder, let's charge in!"

"Get out of the way, you in front!" A sharp-tongued woman suddenly pulled out a black plastic bag and threw it violently at the security personnel!

The security personnel standing on the outermost edge were caught off guard, and the black plastic bag struck their forehead directly.

It burst instantly!

A stream of yellow, filthy matter poured down over their heads and faces.

"Damn it, they actually threw feces!"

"Damn it, this is going too far!"

The humiliated security personnel was overcome with rage and raised a hand to slap the woman across the face.

The woman was immediately knocked to the ground.

"Government staff are beating people!"

"Someone's been killed!"

"Fight them to the death!"

Ding Zhen stood in the office building, originally intending to just watch the show.

Because the Old City Renovation was a problem left behind by Han Zhengyi, he had communicated with Tang Ye that this project would be handed over to him to be responsible for.

Now that the situation had escalated, he could use this opportunity to make things difficult for Tang Ye.

It was just that he had underestimated the severity of the scene.

Very quickly, the petitioning crowd broke through the blockade and flooded into the main building...

Seeing that the situation was not right, Ding Zhen planned to find a place to hide.

A group of elderly men and women rushed into the office and surrounded him in the middle...
