"Shuitou, aren't you worried that he will cause trouble?" Qiao Kenan was still a little worried.
"Don't worry! Nothing serious will happen. Let him stir up trouble in Yuanxi. Maybe it will be a good thing!" Shui Yijun said nonchalantly.
"Shuitou, his inaugural speech, oh! This wasn't an inaugural speech at all, it was a declaration of war against Yuanxi Province, implying that whoever dared to mess with me would be killed! It was terrifying!"
Qiao Kenan said with an awkward smile.
"Comrade Kenan, you don't have to worry about this. There's one thing cadres like Feng Yuxing won't get involved in: accepting bribes!
The only things he can do are being a troublemaker, not following the rules, having strained relationships with colleagues, or being disrespectful to his superiors;
"Otherwise, nothing's wrong! Don't worry! I've checked with Qiao Guping and Nie Wenli from Yinhai, and they say this guy is reliable!"
The tone of Shui Yijun's voice showed that he was not worried about the possible trouble that Feng and Xing might cause.
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Kenan looked at the phone in his hand, smiled bitterly, and thought to himself, "What a big heart!"
After he finished his shower, he made a cup of tea and poured himself a few sips when there was a knock on the door, accompanied by a voice, "Minister Qiao, it's me, Xiao Hairuo!"
As the provincial party secretary, Xiao Hairuo's sense of smell in all aspects must be different from others. After he returned, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
Without even saying hello, the higher-ups parachuted a young man to Yuanxi to serve as mayor. Moreover, Zhouxi City is the mayor of a provincial capital.
The provincial capital city is of utmost importance to the provincial party committee and government. Every time they select the municipal party committee secretary and mayor, they are extremely cautious.
Especially in terms of economy, provincial capital cities are definitely the locomotives.
"Secretary Xiao, please come in!" Qiao Kenan opened the door and let Xiao Hairuo in. "Sit down!" He poured Xiao Hairuo a cup of tea.
"Minister Qiao, it's very interesting that the higher-ups dropped such a bombshell on our Yuanxi!" Xiao Hairuo said with a wry smile.
He is a person. At the inauguration ceremony, everyone can see that Feng Yuxing is not a good person. For Xiao Hairuo, he is definitely a subordinate who gives him a headache.
Qiao Kenan certainly knew that Xiao Hairuo's words were not the purpose of his visit, but he wanted to find out whether the intention of the higher-ups was true.
"Secretary Xiao, you're talking about the wind and the action! Didn't I say that cross-provincial exchanges among young cadres are the only way to cultivate the outstanding cadres the Party needs, right?"
It was not so easy for Qiao Kenan to trick Xiao Hairuo into believing something.
"Minister Qiao, I can't believe you when you say that. I don't think you'll believe it either!" Xiao Hairuo said jokingly, "Also, this mayor is incredibly young. It's so overly young that it scares me!"
"Secretary Xiao, I don't know what the higher-ups have decided. I'm only following their instructions and sending them to Yuanxi. I don't know much about anything else."
Qiao Kenan looked at Xiao Hairuo's cunning face and said with a smile.
"Brother Qiao, since I won't tolerate it, you can give me some pointers. That should be okay, right? Consider it a favor, okay?"
Xiao Hairuo suddenly made a 360-degree low gesture, with a hint of rogueness.
The attitude displayed by Xiao Hairuo at this moment was completely different from that of a provincial party secretary! Not only was he unusually low-key and humble, he even took the initiative to treat others as brothers.
This kind of behavior really surprised Qiao Kenan, and he couldn't help feeling angry and amused.
It seems not an exaggeration to say that he is like a heartless, ignorant and insolent person, but when you think about it carefully, it seems that it is not that simple.
"Secretary Xiao, you've been in politics for decades. Aren't you making things difficult for me? Think about it, what does Feng Yuxing Zhishan do? There are so many young cadres in the country, why is it him? Think about it carefully!"
Qiao Ke was in a difficult situation. If he didn't give him something to think about, it would be endless.
"Comrade Feng Yuxing is the police chief in Yinhai. He has some criminal investigation skills. Could it be..." Xiao Hairuo suddenly realized, "Could it be related to the case of Liang Mingxian, the former mayor of Zhouxi City?"
"Then I don't know. That's the disciplinary inspection department's business. How can I, a cadre in the organization department, know about the disciplinary inspection department's business?"
Qiao Kenan was not an unintelligent cadre, and it was impossible for him to say anything to Xiao Hairuo casually. Besides, he really didn't know how far Liang Mingxian's case had progressed.
"Brother, tell me, if you were me, what would you do regarding the matter of wind and movement?"
Xiao Hairuo asked the question in a different way this time.
"If I were you, I would ignore everything and let him deal with it. If he needs my help, I will lend a hand. Anyway, if he messes up, it's the higher-ups' business!" Qiao Kenan said with a smile.
He said this because he was forced by Xiao Hairuo, and it was the last word he could say.
"Oh! Brother Qiao, I understand. Thank you so much!" Xiao Hairuo said with a smile on his face.
From the beginning, Xiao Hairuo guessed that Feng Yuxing was serving as mayor of a provincial capital city across provinces, and that his predecessor was invited to have tea with the disciplinary inspection department for taking bribes;
Seeing that Feng Yuxing came to Yuanxi to take up the post, Xiao Hairuo had to think more. He came to chat with Qiao Kenan and asked questions without hesitation, which confirmed his guess.
Xiao Hairuo came over to pester Qiao Kenan for "guidance", and someone from Feng Yuxing also came to find him.
The person who came was his Yan School classmate Zhu Yonghao.
"Feng and Xing, we are really destined to meet! We just graduated last month, and now we meet again and have become direct superiors and subordinates!" Zhu Yonghao said happily.
"Well! What you said is right. I didn't expect to come to Yuanxi to work. It's not very fun and a bit far!" Feng Yuxing said with a smile.
His tone revealed that he was not very interested in the position of mayor of Zhouxi.
"Mayor Feng, it's easy for you to get the mayor's position, but what you don't know is that there are so many people who are eyeing the position of mayor! They are willing to use all means, even underhanded and deceptive tactics!"
Zhu Yonghao was speechless when he saw the man's face that looked indifferent and asking for a beating about the mayor's position.
"Oh! I heard that the competition for the position of mayor of Zhouxi is not fierce!" Feng Yuxing's mind flashed and these words blurted out immediately.
"The competition isn't fierce? You're overthinking it! Some people are using Duan to threaten those who are qualified to compete for the mayoral position! Executive Vice Mayor Cheng Yi is a bit old, and he knows he can't compete with others;
That’s why I’m so low-key! Of course, those who compete also need the support of the provincial party committee!”
Zhu Yonghao did not say who used the trick, but Feng Yuxing knew who Zhu Yonghao was talking about.
"Oh! That person can't get the position of mayor, so he hates me!" Feng Yuxing continued to ask about his thoughts and wanted to know more about Zhou Xi.
"Of course. Anyway, you just need to pay attention to the municipal party secretary Huan Tongmin and deputy mayor Yi Gurong. They are very close! I heard that Yi Gurong can become the only candidate for mayor because of Huan Tongmin's support!" When Zhu Yonghao said this, Feng Yuxing felt a little bit of gnashing of teeth.
