Officialdom: After My Demotion, My Powerful Background Was Exposed

When his superior retired, Li Lin, as his secretary, was implicated and demoted to an indefinite secondment as deputy township head in a remote rural town.

With no backing, Li Lin's polit...

Chapter 368: The Battle for Power, Being Tried Out

Zhao Jie was stunned. Looking at Liu Li who said this with a relaxed look on her face, he felt that she had bad intentions. For a moment he was unsure what she was thinking. He could only frown and stare at her, trying to find a clue from her expression.

Hu Xiaoxing could tell that Liu Li's tone was tougher than usual. She didn't look like she was here to discuss things with Zhao Jie, but more like she was here to give orders. This made Hu Xiaoxing take a breath of cold air. An invisible pressure suddenly arose, and he subconsciously took two steps back to keep a distance from Liu Li.

Going to work is as casual as buying groceries, and you still say you have worked hard for a year?

Do you still have the nerve to say that you have chilled the hearts of your comrades?

It’s good enough to give out some benefits! Still think it’s not enough?

Zhao Jie was completely acting out of a paternalistic mentality, adhering to the principle of making the most of every penny and trying to spend the money wisely... He didn't want to be a pushover, so he gave money to his subordinates under various pretexts in order to win over the employees.

He looked at Liu Li in surprise, and his tone became much higher. He asked, "What do you mean? Do you know how much money is left in our bank account? How to ensure the working funds after the New Year and ensure the normal operation of the unit is the most important thing. How can we take out money to pay benefits to comrades? Besides, the New Year is coming soon, and we still have to pay benefits to comrades by then. Isn't it the same to give more during the New Year?"

Liu Li seemed to have expected Zhao Jie to say this. She sighed and said without any pressure, "Director Zhao, I find that you have a bad temper and get angry with us at every turn. Are you punching bags? Can't you just talk it out nicely? I tell you clearly that the New Year's Day benefits cannot be less than 500 yuan per person. This is not set by me. I decided it after considering the opinions of all the comrades. If you agree, then you can explain it to the comrades. As long as they have no objection, I have no objection even if they don't give out a penny!"

Explain to the comrades in the management office?

Zhao Jie was furious when he heard this. Liu Li actually told the employees about something that hadn't been agreed upon by the team yet? And she even asked for their opinions? Isn't this just acting first and asking for permission later? Isn't this putting him, the top leader, in a bad light?

Just think about it, since she has privately promised to give all employees a standard of 500 yuan each, if Zhao Jie does not agree, then those employees will definitely hate Zhao Jie to death... What authority will he have in the management office in the future?

"Liu Li, you're going too far!"

Zhao Jie couldn't help but swear.

Unexpectedly, Liu Li was not angry at all. Instead, she smiled and said, "Director Zhao, how can you say dirty words to a female comrade like me? I want you to apologize to me!"

Apologize?

Zhao Jie smiled disdainfully.

It was you, Liu Li, who went too far first, so scolding you twice is the least of my actions.

However, the next second, Zhao Jie could no longer laugh.

Liu Li twisted her hips and walked straight to the door, reaching out to hold the door handle...

Zhao Jie and Hu Xiaoxing still didn't understand what Liu Li was going to do.

suddenly.

The door was opened.

I saw that the corridor was filled with people at some point, all of them were employees of the management office.

They could hear the conversation between Zhao Jie and Liu Li clearly outside the door.

At this moment, the crowd of people, with pairs of bright white eyes, were staring at Zhao Jie in the room.

It's chilling.

Zhao Jie screamed in his heart, Damn it, I've been tricked!
