"This is interesting. In my impression, the Safety Supervision Bureau isn't even under Deputy Director Zhao's purview. If Deputy Director Zhao can wade into muddy waters, why can't we?"
After Xu Lianyun finished speaking,
she pulled out a chair and sat down.
Xu Lianyun was notorious for her bad temper in the county committee.
Zhao Shoujiang knew this.
He looked towards Gao Jianzhao and asked, "Minister Gao, what about you?"
Gao Jianzhao paused, glanced at Chen Fang, and said, "Secretary Xu has already said what I intended to say, so there's no need for to repeat it."
With that, he sat down just like Xu Lianyun had.
Although the three of them were all mbers of the county committee,
there was a definite hierarchy among them.
Among these three,
Xu Lianyun ranked the highest, while Zhao Shoujiang was at the bottom.
Seeing that this sort of pressure had no effect on Zhao Shoujiang,
i Shikang clenched his teeth and, trembling, stood up from the ground. He addressed the two seated leaders, "Both of you, please do i the honor today, and I will bring my father to thank you another day."
i Jun was, after all, a city leader.
He also believed that if Xu Lianyun and Gao Jianzhao were smart enough, they would certainly know when to back off.
"Your dad? Your dad is nothing!"
That was Xu Lianyun's response.
It completely stunned i Shikang.
"Xu Lianyun, do you have any semblance of a leader? Vice Chairman i is still a leader, how can you speak like that?"
"What? Doesn't sound nice? Okay, I'll say sothing nicer then, you, Zhao Shoujiang, are nothing!"
Xu Lianyun was really tough.
Right off the bat, she insulted not just i Jun but Zhao Shoujiang as well.
Who dared to ss with Chen Fang? Wasn't that the sa as asking for her life?
Without Chen Fang, who would treat her illness?
"You... Xu Lianyun, don't be arrogant. You won't be able to remain arrogant for long. We'll wait and see, you'll have your day of tears. Right now, the city committee is eting, and if nothing unexpected happens, the order for to beco Deputy County Magistrate should be coming down any mont now. Then, I want to see how you can still be arrogant towards ."
Zhao Shoujiang felt deflated.
He was so enraged he wished he could explode on the spot.
Just then, Chen Fang said, "Deputy County Chief Zhao, stop waiting. You won't beco the Deputy County Magistrate."
"What did you say?"
Zhao Shoujiang asked.
Chen Fang gave a slight smile and said, "I'll repeat it. You won't beco the Deputy County Magistrate. Not only that, but it's likely you won't even be able to hold onto your current deputy position."
"Haha, you think so?"
"Yes, I do. When Chen Fang speaks, he ans what he says," Chen Fang stated calmly.
"Hahaha... I've seen people who boast, but never soone who boasts like you do. If not , then who can get it?"
Zhao Shoujiang laughed uproariously.
Chen Fang's hand slowly extended, pointing towards Xu Lianyun's seat.
At that mont, Xu Lianyun herself was sowhat shocked and hesitated before asking, "?"
"Yes, you."
"Chen Fang, stop joking around."
Xu Lianyun responded. Obviously, she didn't believe what Chen Fang had said either.
Her appearance today alongside Gao Jianzhao was all for the sake of protecting Chen Fang.
But what Chen Fang was saying now seed a bit far-fetched.
Chen Fang remained composed and looked at his watch, comnting, "It's four-thirty now. I guess the result will be here any mont."
No sooner had he spoken,
than Zhao Shoujiang's secretary Jin Shibin appeared at the door, gasping for breath.
Seeing Jin Shibin,
Zhao Shoujiang beca nervous as well.
He asked, "Is there a result?"
Jin Shibin, looking dejected, still nodded his head.
"What result?"
i Shikang also hurriedly asked.
Seeing that Jin Shibin kept silent, Zhao Shoujiang got anxious and stamped his foot, saying, "Co on, speak up."
With no other choice, Jin Shibin slowly said, "Sun (the Executive) will act as the county head."
"What else?"
Zhao Shoujiang asked.
Jin Shibin's gaze shifted to Xu Lianyun beside him, and he muttered, "Xu... Secretary Xu promoted to Deputy County Magistrate."
Boom!
It was like a bolt from the blue.
Everyone in the eting room was stunned.
After a few brief seconds, all eyes turned to Chen Fang.
Was it rely a prophecy?
No!
Chen Fang had known the result long ago.
"How... How could you have known?"
Zhao Shoujiang's voice trembled as he asked.
Chen Fang smiled slightly and said, "Maybe I just got lucky."
After another brief silence.
Anger gradually rose on Zhao Shoujiang's face.
Having coveted the position of Deputy County Magistrate for so long, and causing such a fuss, he ended up gaining nothing and soone else benefited.
Zhao Shoujiang gasped in shock.
He said, "Chen Fang, no one can protect you today, you have abused your power, and the fact that there's conflict between the governnt and businesses is true, no matter who speaks up for you, I have decided to remove you from your post."
His words were aid at Xu Lianyun and Gao Jianzhao.
Even if Xu Lianyun was promoted to Deputy County Magistrate, her appointnt hadn't co through yet, and as for Gao Jianzhao, he was from the organization departnt, and the Safety Supervision Bureau was under the county governnt—they both didn't have a say.
Furthermore, he was all in this ti, ready to not give face to anyone.
Trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice, he was determined to cast Chen Fang into "hell," never to rise again.
"Conflict between the governnt and businesses? Where did that co from?"
Chen Fang scratched his head and asked.
i Shikang scoffed and said, "Stop pretending, everyone knows about Tiancheng Garden, let ask you, did you resolve the illegal construction issue at Tiancheng Garden?"
"It's resolved, they have stopped working."
Chen Fang said.
i Shikang retorted angrily, "Nonsense, Chen Fang, you really talk nonsense so easily, the two bulldozers at the entrance are still there, and you tell it's resolved? Don't forget, you made a promise at the party group eting of the Safety Supervision Bureau."
"The bulldozers? Oh dear, look, I totally forgot about that."
Chen Fang took out his phone from his pocket, dialed a number, and said, "Mr. Wu, why are your construction site's bulldozers still at the entrance of our bureau? If you don't co to take them away, I'll sell them as scrap tal, alright?"
Watching Chen Fang hang up the phone.
i Shikang spoke with disdain, "Putting on airs, who can't do that? You didn't even go to Tiancheng Group today, are you playing us for fools?"
Just as he finished speaking.
A rumbling noise suddenly ca from the entrance of the Safety Supervision Bureau.
It was the sound of the bulldozers being started up.
Everyone rushed to the window to look.
They saw the two bulldozers that had been blocking the entrance, slowly moving away from the doorway.
What was going on?
While i Shikang was bewildered, the office director Tian Xingpo rushed in, panting and said, "Lea… leader, the… Tiancheng Garden construction site…has stopped working, they said they are ready to undergo rectification by the Safety Supervision Bureau."
"What?"
Zhao Shoujiang and i Shikang both exclaid in unison.
Their eyes widened, and when they looked at Chen Fang again, they suddenly realized that he seed a bit different.
"Did you... did you visit Tiancheng Group?"
i Shikang asked in a trembling voice.
Chen Fang smiled slightly and said, "Of course!"
"Impossible, Zhang Cheng isn't soone who can be easily persuaded, he wouldn't let you off."
Zhao Shoujiang said from the side.
Chen Fang laughed heartily and said, "President Zhang is much more reasonable than you two, otherwise why do you think Tiancheng Garden would halt and rectify its work?"
"I don't believe it, I don't believe it, Chen Fang, don't you be smug, I'm telling you, I will deal with you, I will for sure deal with you, just you wait, I'll have my dad take care of you."
One disbelief after another.
At this mont, i Shikang was sowhat hysterical.
He appeared to be under imnse stress and rushed up to Chen Fang, grabbing his collar and bellowing.
In the midst of his tantrum and bravado.
Another event occurred.
Seven or eight individuals dressed in black suits and white shirts filed into the eting room.
The one leading, who was about forty years old,
surveyed the eting room with a cold gaze,
and asked, "Which one of you is Comrade Zhao Shoujiang?"
