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

After having dinner with Wang Lifeng and his partner, Jiang Yiming received a call from his mother on his way home.

"Yiming, are you at work or resting?"

"Mom, I'm on my way home. I just finished having dinner with my colleagues."

Jiang Yiming smiled and said, "How have you been lately? I'll go to the city to see you and Dad after I finish my work these next couple of days."

"Okay, I'll buy some shepherd's purse tomorrow and make shepherd's purse dumplings for you when you come."

Jiang's mother was so happy that her voice rose a little as she laughed, "Your sister is coming back the day after tomorrow. Why don't you bring Shi Ning over when you have time, so our family can get together? Your sister called and said she has something important to tell us."

"What important thing is it? You didn't find a boyfriend, did you?"

Jiang Yiming frowned, somewhat displeased.

"She didn't say anything. Just stay calm and I'll ask her directly when she gets back."

"Okay, then I'll wait a couple more days."

Jiang Yiming said.

"Oh, by the way, your third uncle called me and said that his turtle eggs are not selling well. He asked if I could help him find a sales channel. I was thinking of reserving a spot for him at the supermarket to sell turtle eggs, but his quantity is too small, so it probably won't be easy to do. I was just thinking of calling you to ask if you could get some turtle eggs as gifts since you're going to be giving gifts at the end of the year?"

“I called my third uncle a while ago to ask him how things were going over there. Why didn’t he mention this to me?”

Jiang Yiming inquired.

When he got engaged to Xia Shining, he told both sides of their relatives that he would do as much as he was capable of.

They will definitely help if they can, but only within their capabilities.

For example, his third uncle had raised pigs and chickens in his early years, and even built his own fishpond. He tried everything, but failed at everything.

Jiang Yiming then introduced him to a skilled turtle farmer who would teach him step by step. As for the funding, his father would lend him start-up capital, which he could repay once he made money.

He's usually busy and doesn't have much time to go to the site, but he'll take the time to call his relatives and ask about their situation.

“Your third uncle knew you were busy, so he didn’t tell you, afraid of causing you trouble.”

"My third uncle is really something. I'm his own nephew, of course he'll come to me if he needs anything."

Jiang Yiming said, "Mom, don't worry about this, I'll handle it."

"it is good."

Jiang's mother said, "If you are too busy to take care of this, just let me know and I will think of a solution."

"I can easily use up all of Uncle San's turtle eggs with just one phone call, so you don't need to worry about it."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yiming called Jiang Yongchen: "Fifth Brother, how did your talk with Wang Weifa go?"

“The matter has been settled. I transferred thirteen percent of the shares to him today.”

“Alright, now that things have been settled, come to Xinping County tomorrow so we can all get together and coordinate with the Municipal Reception Office as soon as possible. We’ll try to finalize everything by next week, so we can catch the peak season for liquor sales during the Spring Festival.”

Jiang Yiming said, "Oh, right, there's one more thing. My third uncle's turtle eggs are currently unsellable. Could you buy them all for me and soak them in baijiu (Chinese liquor)? This stuff has aphrodisiac and kidney-tonifying effects. I can give them as gifts later."

"Okay, leave this to me."

Jiang Yongchen smiled and said, "Let's talk tomorrow when we meet."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yiming tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. In the end, he couldn't resist calling his younger sister, Jiang Qianqian.

"Brother, why are you calling me in the middle of the night instead of sleeping? What's up... Oh..."

As Jiang Qianqian spoke, she let out a long yawn.

"I have a question for you. You must answer seriously and without lying. Can you do that?"

"Yes, go ahead and ask."

Jiang Qianqian wanted to finish answering quickly so she could go to sleep.

Do you have a boyfriend?

"Pfft..."

Jiang Qianqian laughed: "Brother, I thought you were asking some kind of question in the middle of the night. Such a trivial question coming from the mouth of a deputy secretary of the county party committee, aren't you bored?"

"Just tell me if it exists or it doesn't?"

Jiang Yiming said anxiously.

"I haven't met a boy better than my brother yet, so of course I won't easily find a boyfriend."

Jiang Qianqian smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry. I'm not a love-struck girl. I won't be fooled by those smooth-talking young men."

"Really?"

"Really, more real than pearls!"

Jiang Qianqian smiled and said, "Don't worry, brother. If I find a boy I like, I'll definitely tell you first. Then I'll let you check him out before I start dating him. Is that alright?"

"Okay, that's all, you should go to sleep now."

Jiang Yiming got the answer he wanted, hung up the phone, and went to sleep.

The following day, Jiang Yiming led Chen Zixin, a member of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee and Deputy County Head, along with relevant comrades from the County Party Committee Office, the Bureau of Commerce, the Economic and Trade Commission, and other departments, to Yusha Winery to guide the person in charge of Yusha Winery in communicating and negotiating with the Municipal Reception Office.

"Yusha wine has a long history and a mellow aroma, making it a rare and excellent wine. Supporting Yusha wine to expand beyond Xinping County and grow stronger is the common expectation of the Xinping County Party Committee and County Government. Now, the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government attach great importance to the development of local enterprises and have decided to take measures to support their development. Yusha wine is a key target for support."

Jiang Yiming said, "I hope that Yusha Winery will seize the historical development opportunity, cherish the hard-won opportunity, work hard on details and seek practical results in quality, strive to create a Yusha wine brand with highlights and characteristics, and strive to become a well-known wine brand in the city within one year and a well-known brand in the province within three years!"

"We sincerely welcome Secretary Jiang and his delegation to our company for guidance. On behalf of all employees of Yusha Winery, I express our heartfelt gratitude. With the care and strong support of the county party committee and government, our Yusha Winery has achieved rapid development. Today, Secretary Jiang has brought us more exciting news. I hereby declare that Yusha Winery will uphold the development philosophy of 'customer first, quality first,' focusing on production and quality, making Yusha wine a shining name card of Xinping County, and allowing Yusha wine to go beyond Xinping, reach the whole country, and become a well-known brand in the province!"

Wang Weifa said passionately, "I hereby guarantee that I will live up to the expectations of the county party committee and county government. Within three years, our Yusha Winery will definitely become the number one taxpayer in the county, bringing glory to Xinping and making due contributions to the people of Xinping County!"

clap clap clap!

After discussing some basic principles with Yusha Wine Company, Jiang Yiming left.

The specific details of the work are then handled by the relevant departments.

"Yiming, you're really something. You managed to convince the Party Secretary of the Municipal Committee to become the spokesperson for Yusha Liquor. You're the only one in the entire Yiyang City who has that kind of ability."

Chen Zixin smiled.

"I'm not exaggerating. It's because Secretary Wei understands the difficulties faced by local businesses and takes the initiative to help them solve their problems."

Jiang Yiming laughed and said, "It's been a while since we got together. How about we grab a couple of drinks at noon?"

"Okay, call Wenbing and the others over."

Chen Zixin said, "I'll ride back in your car, we can chat on the way."

Jiang Yiming nodded, and the two then got into the car.

"Yiming, have you heard about Jiang Xuangui's recent activities?"
