Chapter 78

Besides, this breeding farm was the hope for the villagers of Yezhugou to shake off poverty and become rich, and it was the property of the whole village. You, Shan Xiaolong, just because you are the County Magistrate’s son, want to take so much game for free?

However, Shan Xiaolong was Shan Guozhi’s son after all, and Shan Guozhi was powerful in the county now, and even County Party Secretary Ji Tao didn't go against him, so Chen Hongfu still didn't want to offend him. In addition, he was a little afraid that Su Xinghui was too young and vigorous and would suffer in the future.

Therefore, Chen Hongfu said: "Little Su, if you encounter such things in the future, you still need to use some strategy. I know this matter is their fault, but if you go head-to-head like this, what impression will it give County Magistrate Shan? You are still young. If it were us, a bad impression would just be a bad impression, but your impression in the hearts of leaders is still very important and relates to your future."

Su Xinghui knew that Chen Hongfu was speaking from the heart, so he nodded: "I know, Secretary Chen, I will definitely be careful next time."

Chen Hongfu said: "Then you go busy first."

Su Xinghui got up and was about to go out when Chen Hongfu suddenly called him back. He hesitated for a moment and said: "Be careful with that Little Peng."

Su Xinghui understood why Chen Hongfu said this, so he nodded to Chen Hongfu: "I understand, Secretary Chen."

Returning to the Party and Government Office, Peng Kehong was sitting at his seat, looking at Su Xinghui with a hint of triumph. Su Xinghui ignored him and sat back in his seat.

People like Peng Kehong had no ability to do work, but they were good at conspiracy and flattery. He was such a person, so he took leaders very seriously.

Peng Kehong absolutely dared not offend leaders like Shan Guozhi because he knew that the future of people like him was completely in the hands of leaders.

By analogy, he saw Su Xinghui offending Shan Xiaolong today as a bigger deal than the sky. He felt that Shan Guozhi covered the sky with one hand in Shangjun County, and Su Xinghui dared to offend his son, so his future was probably very bleak.

He naturally knew that Chen Hongfu had been close to Su Xinghui during this time, but he felt that if Chen Hongfu knew that Su Xinghui had offended Shan Guozhi’s son, he would definitely alienate Su Xinghui, so he ran to Chen Hongfu to report him.

He added fuel to the fire, describing Su Xinghui’s performance as extremely bad. He said that County Magistrate Shan’s son went to the breeding farm to buy some game but was unreasonably harassed by Su Xinghui, and that County Magistrate Xu and Public Security Bureau Chief Tao’s son were present at the time. Su Xinghui’s doing this caused a very bad influence.

Peng Kehong didn't know what the relationship between Chen Hongfu and Su Xinghui was now, nor did he know who was behind Su Xinghui. This was information asymmetry. He thought that offending Shan Guozhi was a huge deal, but he didn't expect that Chen Hongfu wouldn't criticize Su Xinghui for such a thing at all.

And through this matter, Chen Hongfu had a very bad impression of him and Jin Taihe. Chen Hongfu could hear that Shan Xiaolong and the others going to Yezhugou today was probably instigated by these two people; otherwise, how would they know that Yezhugou was raising game?

Peng Kehong saw that Su Xinghui was called to Chen Hongfu’s office as soon as he returned, and thought that Chen Hongfu had criticized Su Xinghui. He was so happy, but he didn't expect that as long as he stayed in Menghuling Township, he probably wouldn't have a day of success in the future.

That day, after Su Xinghui was busy all day, he returned to the dormitory. Wan Xing'an was also in the dormitory.

During this time, the work in the township was quite busy, and Wan Xing'an also went to the villages more often. He went to Qishuping the most, which was also his hometown. He mainly helped the village coordinate some affairs.

Because there were more things to do, he basically didn't play cards anymore, which was also normal. As long as a person is fulfilled and has some career ambition, they won't waste all their time playing cards.

Su Xinghui saw Wan Xing'an reading a book and asked him what book he was reading.

Wan Xing'an said: "I am reading a book for self-study exams."

"Self-study exam?" Su Xinghui became interested: "What major did you sign up for?"

Wan Xing'an said: "I signed up for the Economic Management major."

Su Xinghui said: "You shouldn't have caught up with the October exam this time, right?"

Wan Xing'an nodded: "Yes, the time was too tight this time, and I didn't catch up. I can only take the exam next April. This is also my fault; I wasted too much time before, only knowing how to play cards every day."

Speaking of this, Wan Xing'an was a bit embarrassed. The time he wasted playing cards before was indeed too much. This time he was able to take the self-study exam, it was also because he listened to Su Xinghui’s persuasion that he signed up.

Su Xinghui’s meaning was that Wan Xing'an had a technical secondary school degree, which would be a disadvantage for promotion in the future. Wan Xing'an naturally heard Su Xinghui’s good intentions, so this time he made up his mind, bought the textbooks, and began to study.

Su Xinghui was quite happy: "Okay, you study hard. If you do well, you can get a bachelor’s degree in two years. If you want to make progress in the future, diplomas will become more and more important."

Wan Xing'an said: "Xinghui, there is something I want to ask for your help."

Su Xinghui said: "Whatever it is, just say it."

Wan Xing'an said somewhat embarrassedly: "My foundation is a bit poor, and sometimes I can't understand the books I read myself. If I ask you, can you teach me?"

To tell the truth, Su Xinghui had left university for more than 20 years, and his memory of many courses was no longer deep. He said to Wan Xing'an: "Xing'an, I am not in the same major as you. If you signed up for the Chinese Department, I could still teach you."

Wan Xing'an said: "It’s okay, teach me what you can, and I’ll figure out what you can’t. You are a top student from a prestigious university, so you must be better than me."

Su Xinghui thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, let’s figure it out together then."

Su Xinghui’s current acceptance ability, memory, and understanding ability were all in the best state. He believed that he should still be able to understand some of Wan Xing'an’s self-study textbooks.

After Wan Xing'an thanked him, he began to read the book with concentration, and Su Xinghui took out paper and pen to practice calligraphy and painting. The two of them were at peace.

In this life, Su Xinghui’s physical state and mental state were far stronger than in his previous life. Therefore, he felt that his calligraphy and traditional Chinese painting levels were improving very quickly. At least his hands were far steadier than in his previous life, and his brush strength and accuracy were far stronger than in his previous life.

Su Xinghui was still very happy about this speed of progress. He was already interested in calligraphy and painting. If he improved to a relatively high level, if his promotion didn't go smoothly in the future, he would at least have a way to make a living.
