The Official Ladder: I ascend to the pinnacle of power, wielding the power of life and death.

"Jiang Yiming, you don't think you, a mere staff member in the personnel department, have the right to stand up to me, do you? Believe me or not, I can transfer you out of the personnel department with just one phone call?"

Jiang Yunhai said coldly, "Without political resources, no one will speak up for you! You can only watch helplessly as I remove you from power!"

"Who says Yiming has no resources? Don't I count?"

At this moment, Chen Zixin walked in with a man and a woman.

Upon seeing the newcomers, Jiang Yunhai and the several portly men all changed their expressions.

"Secretary Chen, Director Tang, Secretary Qiao, you've come for lunch too?"

Jiang Yunhai hurriedly greeted him.

He dared not offend anyone in front of him.

Chen Zixin has a very mysterious and powerful background. It is said that he will be transferred from the position of deputy secretary of Kaiyuan Subdistrict Office to a township/town mayor. At this time, Chen Zixin is only 22 years old and his future is bright.

Tang Guangyong is a member of the Party Committee and Director of the Political Department of the County Public Security Bureau, and he is also very young.

Although Qiao Xiaomai is the secretary of the Youth League Committee, she is at the level of a full section chief, and could be transferred to a township or department as the head at any time.

"Isn't that a pointless question? If you come to a restaurant and don't eat, are you here to take a dump?"

Chen Zixin said without any politeness.

This guy dared to bully his good buddy, so naturally he wouldn't hold back.

Jiang Yunhai's face flushed red, but he didn't know how to respond.

Just then, another taxi stopped in front of the restaurant.

Sun Yujun and Chen Yajing walked in.

"So many people, it's really lively."

Sun Yujun laughed and said, "Yiming, I've invited the beautiful Ya Jing over. You'll have to have another drink with me later."

"Thank you, Brother Jun. I'll toast you separately later."

Jiang Yiming laughed.

In fact, he did not invite Chen Yajing, after all, his invitation to Sun Yujun was also a spur-of-the-moment decision.

Sun Yujun brought Chen Yajing along, presumably to strengthen the bond between the group.

He naturally welcomed it.

"Everyone's here, let's go in."

Jiang Yiming led everyone into the private room.

Jiang Yunhai and the others stood there dumbfounded, not daring to utter a single word.

"Director Jiang, I just remembered I have something to do at work, so I'll be leaving now."

"Director Jiang, my wife just called me and said she has a stomachache. She wants me to come home immediately. You know I'm afraid of my wife..."

"Director Jiang..."

Several leaders from the personnel bureau made excuses and slipped away.

"Dad, what do we do now?"

Jiang Tao said anxiously.

Before 08, the Personnel Bureau had not yet been renamed the Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, and at that time it was responsible for the recruitment and management of civil servants.

Now that several leaders from the personnel bureau have left, isn't he doomed?

"I didn't expect that kid to have accumulated so many connections in just over a month since he joined the system."

Jiang Yunhai's face was gloomy. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Since the Cadre Supervision Section is serious, you should take full responsibility. I'll pull some strings, and at most you won't be able to take the civil service exam again. It won't have too much of an impact."

"Ah, but I also want to be an official."

Jiang Tao said with a face full of resentment.

There is no better option at the moment.

Jiang Yunhai sighed and said, "If your grandfather were still in power, this would not be a big deal, but at this moment, we can only take a step back to stay safe."

"I will never let that bastard Jiang Yiming get away with this!"

Jiang Tao's eyes were extremely gloomy.

Inside the room.

Chen Zixin introduced the people he brought and said with a smile, "Yiming, Senior Brother Tang Guangyong is a member of the Party Committee and Director of the Political Work Office of the County Public Security Bureau, and Senior Sister Qiao Xiaomai is the Secretary of the County Youth League Committee. They both graduated from No. 1 High School and are senior brothers and sisters who are several years ahead of us. They are also future political stars."

“Junior Brother Zixin, how dare we call ourselves political stars in front of you? You’re slapping us in the face.”

Tang Guangyong smiled.

"That's right, you're the Party Secretary, and so am I. My position is just a powerless one, I can't compare to you, my junior brother."

Qiao Xiaomai is in her early thirties, with short, ear-length hair, and looks very capable.

"Let me formally introduce you to Brother Jiang."

Chen Zixin laughed and said, "We were roommates in high school. He was the top student in our class, and I was one of the worst students, but we were very close."

"Let me tell you, when I was in high school, I was the biggest bully in our school. I had at least eighty or a hundred followers following me around, I was really tough."

“Many people are afraid of me, even the head of the teaching department gives me a lot of face. But Jiang Yiming doesn’t take me seriously at all. When I asked him to do my homework, he tore up my notebook and threw it downstairs.”

"He didn't yield to my threats at all, so I got angry and fought him, but I lost. That kid really dared to go all out and beat me black and blue. Especially his eyes, I still feel scared when I think about them now."

"That night, the two of us sat in the dorm and drank three cases of beer, and eventually became best buddies who could talk about anything."

"Brother Jiang advised me to study hard, but unfortunately I realized it too late and still didn't get into university. Later, I followed his advice and got a part-time associate degree."

"I really envy your friendship."

Qiao Xiaomai raised her glass and said, "Junior Jiang, I'd like to toast you."

"I respect my seniors."

Jiang Yiming quickly picked up the cup and drank it all in one gulp.

Just as Jiang Yiming was about to introduce Sun Yujun, the others laughed and said, "We've heard of Section Chief Sun's reputation for a long time. He used to work in the Discipline Inspection Commission, where he was in charge of investigating cadres who violated discipline. Whenever we saw him, we would take a detour."

"You'll probably have to take a detour now. He's currently in the Cadre Supervision Section of the Organization Department, and once his position is adjusted, he'll be the section chief."

"Don't be like that, it hurts me to hear you say that. I can't treat you to tea, but you can treat me to tea and I'll pay the bill."

Sun Yujun was good at joining in the conversation. He raised his glass and said with a smile, "I also graduated from No. 1 High School. You guys can't leave me out to play by myself."

"Haha, how could that be? Let's get together more often in the future."

The group quickly raised their glasses and clinked them together.

"My name is Chen Yajing, and I work in the Organization Department office."

Chen Yajing raised her glass and said, "Although I didn't graduate from Xinping No.1 High School, I did graduate from Jianghuai No.1 High School."

"Then let's all work together to become a high-ranking official."

All six were young people with bright futures, and they were all eager to get to know each other, so they all drank to their hearts' content.

When they learned that Jiang Yiming would be working under Secretary Ma starting tomorrow, everyone looked at Jiang Yiming differently and eagerly offered him toasts.

They drank until 10 p.m. before everyone dispersed.

"Please take care, leaders."

The female boss secretly rejoiced that she hadn't listened to Jiang Yunhai, otherwise she would have been finished today.

"The food is great, I'll come again another day."

Jiang Yiming had a good impression of the female boss, let out a burp, waved, and left.

After everyone dispersed, Jiang Yiming did not let Chen Zixin leave.

"Shall we go sit by the river?"

Jiang Yiming suggested.

"As long as it's not about going to a hotel, you can go wherever you want."

Chen Zixin said, swaying unsteadily.
