Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

After Wang Xiaohua figured out this layer, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion; this world really is just like that — there are no so-called allies, only the orientation of interests.

You say Xiao Xueqing is a good person, but if you think about it carefully, you'll discover that in nature there isn't much difference between her and Liu Xinwen.

The reason the two fought to the death was entirely because their interests diverged, not because of any distinction between good and bad.

"Xiao Hua, Zhang Sheng has already punished himself with three cups; let's not stoop to his level — after all, it's just a small matter!"

At this moment Xiao Xueqing spoke up for Zhang Sheng.

Wang Xiaohua could only nod in agreement:

"County Magistrate Xiao, you're right — it's just a small matter; I actually let go of it long ago!"

Wang Xiaohua raised his cup to Zhang Sheng:

"General Manager Zhang, I toast you!"

Zhang Sheng hurriedly picked up his cup and drank it down in one gulp!

After both Zhang Sheng and Wang Xiaohua finished drinking, Xiao Xueqing stood up, taking control of the banquet:

"Come come come, everyone drink a cup together!"

Wang Xiaohua had just finished drinking when he hurriedly filled the cups again.

Wang Erhai then hurriedly stood up, raising his cup to return the toast to Xiao Xueqing!

Everyone drank it down in one gulp!

Xiao Xueqing then said:

"We're all friends; in the future, whatever happens, we should look out for each other — especially you, Xiao Hua." Xiao Xueqing looked at Wang Xiaohua, "If something comes up, don't keep it bottled up; you can ask your Second Brother more, or come talk to me, or communicate with Zhang Sheng — we'll all do our best to help you solve problems!"

Wang Xiaohua hurriedly said:

"Many thanks, County Magistrate Xiao; you saying this makes me flattered — I'm just a small grassroots cadre in a township, what virtue or ability do I have?"

But Xiao Xueqing said:

"Don't belittle yourself; this time dealing with Liu Xinwen, if you hadn't offered strategies, that result couldn't have been achieved!"

At this moment Xiao Xueqing said:

"Barring accident, in another half year I'll be transferred to the city; whether the foundation I've built in the county town can hold steady depends on those colleagues of mine, and also on you few."

Xiao Xueqing sighed, then continued:

"If once I leave the county's atmosphere reverts to the stage controlled by aristocratic clans, turning history's clock backward, then all the current efforts will have been in vain!"

Zhang Sheng hurriedly said:

"County Magistrate Xiao, you've devoted yourself wholeheartedly for the country and the people, for the development of this small county town; the ordinary people in the county will all remember your goodness!"

Xiao Xueqing smiled:

"Hope so!"

Wang Erhai also hurriedly said:

"Having County Magistrate Xiao descend upon this small county town — honestly it's the ordinary people's fortune! These past few years the business environment has improved far more than before!"

Xiao Xueqing smiled, accepting all the praise with peace of mind:

"Before, the extortion and obstruction were too severe; now it's indeed much better. Still, there remain shortcomings, and they'll have to be improved slowly."

Wang Xiaohua fell silently mute.

Because he knew, Xiao Xueqing hadn't changed anything at all.

Knock down Liu Xinwen, and another Liu Xinwen will appear.

Just like Lianqiang Building Materials fell, Zhang Sheng would swiftly occupy Lianqiang Building Materials' former ecological niche, and then another company no different in nature from Lianqiang Building Materials would emerge, monopolizing this county town's building materials market.

Just how, exactly, could this nature be changed?

Empty talk is easy; the books have long since said it — let the people be masters, implement people's supervision, vigorously fight corruption and promote integrity — but to actually do it, how could it be easy?

If you do these within the legal framework, it's difficult to move an inch.

But if you use strong power to push these, when that strong power reaches its end, won't it just form another great mountain?

"Xiao Hua, what are you thinking about?"

Xiao Xueqing suddenly asked Wang Xiaohua a sentence, interrupting Wang Xiaohua's thoughts.

"No, nothing."

Wang Xiaohua snapped back to his senses.

Right now he's just a tiny grassroots cadre; thinking about these is useless.

"I'm feeling a bit unwell physically; maybe it's because I've been too busy these past few days — County Magistrate Xiao, truly sorry."

Wang Xiaohua hurriedly explained why he was out of sorts.

Xiao Xueqing said:

"No matter, no matter; then let's drink less wine and eat more dishes! We're not doing that wine-table culture — everything's casual, no forcing!"

Xiao Xueqing smiled, her face radiant with high spirits.

This victorious battle against Liu Xinwen, although it couldn't make her get promoted and rich overnight, brought her enormous influence, letting her prestige in the county town reach its peak.

Even the County Party Secretary now has to look at her with new eyes.

Before, the County Party Secretary only felt Xiao Xueqing was a very capable female general; now he discovers this female general not only can get things done, but can also kill invisibly, able to change the entire county town's structure.

In a blink the banquet dispersed.

Zhang Sheng, Wang Erhai, and Wang Xiaohua, the three of them together saw Xiao Xueqing back to the Biyuan Garden Villa Community.

After sending her back, they returned to the County City Side.

On the way back, Zhang Sheng said to Wang Erhai:

"Our Building Materials Company must strike while the iron is hot, get started on it right away, only then can we seize the initiative!"

Wang Erhai nodded:

"I was thinking the same! Third Brother, what do you think?"

Wang Xiaohua chuckled:

"I'm an outsider to this, whatever you think is fine, you guys make the call on this!"

Returning to the Xiangsheng Community side, Wang Erhai, Wang Xiaohua, and Zhang Sheng parted ways.

Before leaving, Zhang Sheng suddenly said to Wang Erhai and Wang Xiaohua:

"Right, Niu Chunsheng might not have much time left, you all should show more concern for him, after all he's really been good to you."

Wang Erhai was stunned:

"General Manager Zhang, where did you get this news?"

Zhang Sheng smiled:

"I guessed it. That day at the Shangang Town Real Estate Project groundbreaking ceremony, Niu Chunsheng actually didn't attend personally, and combined with the previous incident of him vomiting blood after drinking, I guessed he might not be well. Anyway, showing more concern won't cause any problems."

Wang Erhai nodded:

"Okay, I'll go visit Uncle Chunsheng tomorrow!"

Wang Xiaohua didn't say anything about this.

He just watched Zhang Sheng leave like that.

"Third Brother, tomorrow afternoon after work, you come to the County Town once, then we'll go visit Uncle Chunsheng at his home together."

Wang Xiaohua blurted out a puzzled question:

"Why did Zhang Sheng suddenly remind us of this matter?"

Wang Erhai didn't think too much about it:

"It's just out of concern! Zhang Sheng and I, and Uncle Chunsheng, worked on a real estate project together, we're all partners now, interests bound together, showing more concern is perfectly normal! If Zhang Sheng had health problems, I'd go visit him too!"

Wang Xiaohua was still puzzled:

"Is it really like that?"

Wang Erhai said:

"Don't think so much, let's hurry back. Tonight you stay at my place, tomorrow morning you go back to Town for work!"

And at this time, on the Other Side, Zhang Sheng returned to his home, found a Notebook.

Opening the Notebook, he found all the Contact Information of people who had cooperation with Niu Chunsheng's company.

Then he called them one by one:

"Hello, President Zhao, aren't you Niu Chunsheng's partner? Niu Chunsheng's health isn't good, did you know?... I have no other meaning, we're friends, you should find time to visit him, don't let people feel you don't care about him at all!"
