The soul traveled through Qi Tongwei and ruined Liang Ping's dream of living a comfortable life

1997, April 11.

In the small conference room of the Jinshan County Party Committee, a standing committee meeting on personnel transfers was being held.

Yi Xuexue took the document prepared in advance by the county party committee office, glanced at it, and said, "Comrades, there are two main topics today."

"First, it is about recommending candidates to the municipal party committee for promotion to deputy county-level leadership positions."

"Second, the issue of the replacement of the main leaders of each township"

“Let’s proceed with each item separately.”

After that, Yi Xuexue flipped through another row of documents and said, "Here are the four candidates that the Organization Department is investigating. Everyone, take a look and see who is more suitable."

"The first one is Chengguan Town Party Committee Secretary, Meng Yuanjiang"

"The second one is the Director of the Finance Bureau, Tang Zhengyu."

"The third one is Xinyue Town Party Committee Secretary, Lin Taiping."

"The fourth one is the director of the government office, Wang Suning."

"These people are all suitable candidates for promotion to deputy county level, as their age and working time meet the requirements. Please share your opinions."

Although Jinshan is basically under the control of Li Dakang nowadays, others still do not want to miss out on the deputy county-level positions, especially Organization Minister Yan Haoqiang.

The Party Secretary of Chengguan Town was his old subordinate, so he strongly recommended Meng Yuanjiang and listed Meng Yuanjiang's name first.

Yan Haoqiang pulled his throat and said, "Um... let me say a few words about this. Since the Municipal Party Committee asked us, the Jinshan County Party Committee, to recommend candidates this time, it is enough to show that the Municipal Party Committee has full trust in us. Therefore, we must not be careless and must keep a close eye on the organization."

"As for Comrade Meng Yuanjiang, I know him well. He is diligent and has worked at the section-level position for many years, especially in an important position like Chengguan Town. Therefore, I think Comrade Meng Yuanjiang is more suitable to be recommended to the Municipal Party Committee as a deputy county-level official."

Yi Xuexue coughed softly, then looked at the others, "Minister Yan recommended Comrade Meng Yuanjiang, so what about you? Tell us what you think?"

Although Zhang Shunli, like Yi Xuexi, bowed to Li Dakang, it did not mean that he would obey Li Dakang in everything. If Yi Xuexi had not been convinced by Li Dakang, he would have instigated Yi Xuexi to continue to go against Li Dakang.

Zhang Shunli glanced at Li Dakang and saw that he had no expression on his face. He then said, "Well, although Comrade Meng Yuanjiang's working time meets the requirements, he is too old after all. Isn't the central government strongly advocating for younger cadres? If I remember correctly, Comrade Meng Yuanjiang is 53 years old this year."

"If we recommend an older candidate like this, the municipal committee will think we have no one in Jinshan."

Zhang Dashan, director of the county party committee office, nodded and said, "Yes, Secretary Zhang is right. I think we should recommend a young and energetic comrade. After all, Jinshan is developing vigorously recently, and we need people who can work."

Yan Haoqiang was immediately displeased when he heard this. "Director Zhang, what do you mean by this? Comrade Meng Yuanjiang is diligent and capable, and that is obvious to all. How come you have made him a person who can't do things? If this gets out, the comrades will be disheartened."

Yi Xuexi glanced at Zhang Dashan and said, "Director Zhang, please be careful with your words. If you are not conducive to unity, please don't say anything."

Zhang Dashan smiled bitterly, "Okay, okay, Comrade Meng Yuanjiang is the most capable, okay?"

"you……"

Yan Haoqiang glared at Zhang Dashan, feeling very unhappy with his sarcastic look.

"Okay, let's not talk about irrelevant things."

Yi Xuexi interrupted the two of them, then looked at Li Dakang who had been silent.

"Comrade Dakang, you are the head of the government. You have the most say in the recommendation for the deputy county chief. What do you think?"

Li Dakang laughed, "Secretary Yi, you can't say that. Every comrade has the right to speak. We are not a one-man show here, don't you think?"

"But if you ask me, I think Comrade Lin Taiping from Xinyue Town is quite good."

"Ok?"

"what?"

Everyone present was stunned, including Chen Yuandong, and they all looked at Li Dakang in confusion.

Everyone in Jinshan knows that Wang Suning, the director of the government office, is Li Dakang's most trusted confidant. It is precisely because of this that Wang Suning has the highest voice in this recommendation list and is the most likely candidate to become a deputy county-level leader.

As for Lin Taiping, people in Jinshan officialdom all thought that he was just there to make up the numbers, because the Luzhou Municipal Party Committee required four candidates, and being able to make the list was nothing more than meeting the requirements.

Yi Xuexi was also stunned. He didn't expect that Li Dakang did not support Wang Suning, but supported Xinyue's Lin Taiping. Why?

Even if he doesn't support Wang Suning, he supports Tang Zhengyu, the director of the Finance Bureau, who is also Li Dakang's confidant.

Is it really a matter of official business? Yi Xuexue pondered and pondered, but he didn't know.

Li Dakang smiled slightly, as if he had anticipated everyone's surprise.

"Comrades, I recommend Comrade Lin Taiping for my own reasons."

"First of all, Comrade Lin Taiping has sufficient experience in grassroots work, especially in the post of township party secretary. He has served in all townships except Chengguan Township."

"The deputy county chief recommended for promotion happens to be in charge of grass-roots work such as agriculture, forestry and water affairs, so I think Comrade Lin Taiping is more suitable for the position."

Logically speaking, after Li Dakang finished speaking, as the number one general of the "Li Family Army", Chen Yuandong should have expressed his support immediately, but this time he was a little embarrassed.

Because he had discussed with Li Dakang before and recommended Wang Suning to the municipal party committee to the county government office. In addition, Wang Suning had a good personal relationship with him and they often drank and partied together. Both publicly and privately, he supported Wang Suning.

"Why did County Magistrate Li suddenly change his mind..."

Chen Yuandong thought secretly and decided to wait and see, just in case this was County Magistrate Li’s plan.

However, Wang Dalu spoke up first, "I support County Magistrate Li's opinion. I know Comrade Lin Taiping well. He is the squad leader in Xinyue and unites his comrades. The entire Xinyue officialdom can be said to be harmonious."

"And last year, they also proposed a livelihood project of bringing pipelines into thousands of households. This was published in the provincial newspaper. If I can recommend him, I think the municipal party committee leaders will be happy too."

Yan Haoqiang wanted to insist, so he continued, "Deputy County Magistrate Wang, as far as I know, all of this seems to be the credit of Comrade Qi Tongwei. As the Party Secretary, he doesn't seem to have made any other achievements except uniting his comrades."

"If you let him..."

"Ok?"

Chen Yuandong's eyes narrowed, "Xinyue... Lin Taiping... Qi Tongwei..."

"Could it be that County Magistrate Li wants to..."

After being reminded by Yan Haoqiang, Chen Yuandong suddenly understood what was going on. Lin Taiping was an invisible person. If Qi Tongwei had not been the deputy secretary of Xinyue, Li Dakang would probably have ignored him. Since Li Dakang still supported Lin Taiping, there was only one result, which was to make room for Qi Tongwei.

The more Chen Yuandong thought about it, the more he found it believable, but... why didn't you tell me in advance? Chen Yuandong was a little confused...

Of course he wouldn't understand because the system had just taken effect.
