Protagonist:
Li Xiulan
And at this time, the other side.
Wang Xiaohua, as usual, was visiting poor households in the mountain village.
What needed surveying was surveyed, what needed recording was recorded; Wang Xiaohua's work was not affected in the slightest by Liu Yumeng's absence.
But in reality, after Liu Yumeng was transferred away, a rumor quickly spread inside the Shangang Town Government.
The rumor said Liu Xinwen being taken away for investigation by the Discipline Inspection Commission was the result of losing the struggle against Xiao Xueqing, and the reason Xiao Xueqing won this struggle was that Wang Xiaohua had played a crucial role in the dark!
Many things do not arise from nothing.
The rumor was detailed and convincing.
So within the Shangang Town leadership team, many people could not help but look at Wang Xiaohua with new eyes; they had already felt Wang Xiaohua was not simple before, and now they respected him even more!
Even Chen Yuancheng of the Security Section, who had always given Wang Xiaohua the cold shoulder, changed his attitude toward Wang Xiaohua.
In the past when Wang Xiaohua went to work, Wang Xiaohua would take the initiative to greet Chen Yuancheng with a smile, but Chen Yuancheng never responded to Wang Xiaohua.
The reason was none other than that Wang Xiaohua's arrival had squeezed him out of his original post as Director of the Poverty Alleviation Office into the Security Section office!
But this morning at work, when he ran into Wang Xiaohua, before Wang Xiaohua could even speak, he smiled and called out:
"Director Wang, you're here so early?"
Seeing Chen Yuancheng take the initiative to greet him, Wang Xiaohua couldn't help but be stunned.
Because he completely hadn't expected Chen Yuancheng's attitude to change.
He then hurriedly smiled and replied:
"Director Chen, morning!"
This one small detail was enough to show the rise in Wang Xiaohua's status on the Town Government side.
Although his position hadn't changed — he was still that Temporary Director in the Poverty Alleviation Office, drawing the most basic Poverty Alleviation Cadre monthly salary of two thousand plus — the entire Town Government's people already treated him as a leader on the same level as Zhong Hongtao!
Even viewed him as higher than Zhong Hongtao!
Tsinghua University education, connections with Xiao Xueqing in the county, and his own work ability extremely strong.
Such a person, this small place Shangang Town, definitely couldn't hold him.
In a few years, he would definitely leap the Dragon Gate, go to a broader sky and wave the whip!
This day after Wang Xiaohua finished visiting poor households, he rode his motorcycle back to town.
At this time his mobile phone rang.
He took it out to look — it was actually Xiao Xueqing calling.
"Xiao Hua, are you free tonight?"
Wang Xiaohua busily replied:
"Yes, yes, what does County Magistrate Xiao need?"
Xiao Xueqing said:
"Actually nothing big, let's go eat a meal together, to celebrate the victory of the struggle!"
Wang Xiaohua however said:
"County Magistrate Xiao, the revolution is not yet complete, we still need to work hard."
Xiao Xueqing said:
"A phased victory naturally also deserves rewarding oneself; without feedback, there is no motivation."
Then she added:
"Rest assured, we won't do that public funds eating and drinking routine; just privately go to a small restaurant, sit down to eat, drink tea, and chat — not even drinking alcohol!"
Hearing this, Wang Xiaohua then happily agreed:
"Alright then, I'll put my things away in a bit and go to the county town to find you!"
Wang Xiaohua arrived at the county town; the time was already past seven in the evening.
Xiao Xueqing sent him an address — it was actually a Sha County Snacks shop next to County No. 1 High School.
Seeing this, Wang Xiaohua was surprised and even more reassured.
Going to Sha County Snacks to eat showed Xiao Xueqing really hadn't deceived him.
Soon he arrived at Sha County Snacks.
Xiao Xueqing and another person were sitting here, waiting for Wang Xiaohua for quite a while.
That person was none other than the motorcycle driver who had scraped Liu Yumeng's BMW; his surname was Zhao, named Zhao Baoqiang.
"Xiao Hua, come, sit down and order; order whatever you want to eat; later we each pay our own bill, we go Dutch, no one owes anyone any favors!"
Xiao Xueqing said so with a smile.
Others might think she was stingy.
But Wang Xiaohua felt it suited him perfectly.
It made him feel relaxed and comfortable interacting with Xiao Xueqing.
This is Xiao Xueqing's formidable part; she can always read people and serve the right dish.
Without fanfare, she caters to their preferences.
In essence she and Zhang Sheng have certain similarities, but she is a whole notch higher than Zhang Sheng.
Wang Xiaohua took the menu, glanced at it:
"Boss, one Chicken Leg Rice, and also a bowl of Spare Rib Soup."
After Xiao Hua finished ordering, he looked at Xiao Xueqing:
"Have you all ordered?"
Xiao Xueqing said with a smile:
"Breakfast time is past!"
Then she said:
"Right, forgot to introduce him to you, this is the person you asked me to find before, Mr. Zhao Baoqiang, Zhao."
"Hello, Mr. Zhao!" Xiao Hua hurriedly took the initiative to reach out his hand to shake hands.
Zhao Baoqiang shook hands with Xiao Hua, smiling:
"Director Wang, County Magistrate Xiao said you're a big shot, seeing you today, truly extraordinary!"
Xiao Hua was humble for a few sentences:
"Not at all, not at all, I still have many areas where I need to learn from seniors, these seniors, including you, Mr. Zhao."
Xiao Xueqing then said:
"We're out eating, no titles okay, just friends gathering. Xiao Hua, call me Qing Jie, call him Qiang Ge. Qiang Ge, you don't be formal either, you're older, just call me and Xiao Hua by our names directly."
Zhao Baoqiang hurriedly looked frightened:
"Can this really work?"
But Xiao Xueqing said:
"What works or doesn't, just do as I say!"
Xiao Hua at this time asked Xiao Xueqing:
"Qing Jie, you asked me out, is there something you want to tell me?"
Xiao Xueqing said with a smile:
"Actually nothing much, just wanted to tell you, the reason we could so smoothly topple Liu Xinwen this time, besides you and Qiang Ge, we also have to thank one person."
"Who?" Xiao Hua was stunned.
There was actually someone else involved in this matter?
Xiao Xueqing then said:
"Zhang Sheng."
"Zhang Sheng?" Xiao Hua was even more surprised, "You mean Zhang Sheng of Huangsheng Group?"
Xiao Xueqing nodded:
"Right, it's him."
Xiao Hua was still in shock and surprise.
Xiao Xueqing said again:
"Zhang Sheng not only helped us greet those entrepreneurs who donated back then within a short time, making everyone unify their caliber, additionally he also quietly did a big thing."
"What big thing?" Xiao Hua was even more curious.
Zhao Baoqiang at this time said:
"Didn't I post several videos online before? Actually they didn't get popular for no reason, especially that apology video, I checked the backend, someone bought traffic for me."
Xiao Hua instantly realized:
"Zhang Sheng bought the traffic?"
Xiao Xueqing then said:
"I checked, Zhang Sheng had someone spend One Million, to buy traffic for Qiang Ge's apology video."
Hearing this, Xiao Hua felt no joy, no gratitude, instead his emotions became complex:
"Indeed, as Mao Selected Works says, the development of things always has its reasons, impossible to happen for no reason. Just I don't understand, why would Zhang Sheng do this, he and the Liu Family, actually have quite a lot of business dealings."
Xiao Xueqing then said:
"Faction alignment, at this critical moment, hedging bets on both sides, seems smart, but actually taboo, because after the war ends, no one will tolerate the existence of fence-sitters, so Zhang Sheng at the most critical moment, must make a choice, and he chose us."
Xiao Hua frowned:
"This way his business will probably lose quite a lot."
But Xiao Xueqing said:
"Short term look, there is some loss, but long term look, he made a big profit."
"Oh? Is that so?"
Xiao Xueqing then said:
"The Liu Family's Lianqiang Building Materials, before almost monopolized the entire County Town's building materials business, now Lianqiang Building Materials falling is already a board nailed down matter, one falls another will refill, and the one refilling, very likely is Zhang Sheng, Zhang Sheng is also currently the front shopkeeper the entire County Government leadership team is relatively satisfied with."
Speaking here, Xiao Xueqing paused, watching the changes on Xiao Hua's face.
Xiao Hua slowly nodded, noncommittal.
Xiao Xueqing then continued:
"I heard Zhang Sheng went to find your Second Brother, he probably wants to start a building materials company with your Second Brother, at that time from the building materials business this piece, he'll definitely be able to earn back his previous losses. Xiao Hua, do you agree with your Second Brother partnering with Zhang Sheng to do building materials business?"
Xiao Hua's expression became heavy:
"This, counts as money-power transaction..."
