Fang Zhicheng pondered for a moment and smiled, "Perhaps, I will stay in Dongtai longer than you think."
Luo Hui shook his head and smiled faintly: "In the officialdom, you often have no choice. If you were given a wider sky, would you be willing to stay in this small territory?"
This is a debate between the tail of a phoenix and the head of a chicken.
Fang Zhicheng shook his head and sighed, "I can't think so much now. I mainly want to do my job well. As for other issues, I will consider them when the time is right. If possible, I will stay in Dongtai for three to four years and witness Dongtai's growth with my own eyes."
"Three to four years?" Luo Hui was slightly stunned, because this was longer than he had expected. Fang Zhicheng had strong connections in both the city and the province. Was he really willing to work steadily in Dongtai County for such a long time
Fang Zhicheng nodded, his eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "County Magistrate Luo, you can witness it in person."
Luo Hui smiled and said, "Okay!"
Fang Zhicheng left his office after chatting with Luo Hui for a long time like an old friend. The reason why he took the initiative to ease the previous conflicts with Luo Hui was because Fang Zhicheng felt that Luo Hui would not be so depressed. There is a saying that gold will shine even if it sinks like sand. Luo Hui is a rare wise man among Dongtai officials. He can't really take advantage of the opportunity. Maybe he is waiting for an opportunity to regroup.
This time may be very long, but Luo Hui can still wait. He is only in his early thirties now. Sun Weiming will stay in Dongtai for two terms at most, and he will be only in his forties by then. A deputy county magistrate in his forties is still eligible to move up, and Luo Hui is obviously ready to stick with it for a long time.
Things change over time, and no one knows what the future holds. Luo Hui and Xing Jike are both looking forward to a turning point. They both vaguely sense that the change in Dongtai's officialdom will be in the hands of one person, Fang Zhicheng.
Luo Hui personally escorted Fang Zhicheng out of the office and watched him disappear at the entrance of the corridor, with a hint of deepness in his eyes. He took the initiative to contact Fang Zhicheng because the road to Sun Weiming's place was completely closed. He was once Qian Dechen's trusted general, and Sun Weiming would never reappoint Luo Hui. He was allowed to remain in the position of deputy county magistrate, on the one hand because he felt that he was still useful in clearing out Qian Dechen's remaining forces, and on the other hand because he wanted to keep him under his nose and prevent him from causing trouble.
The position of director of the Hainan Office is very special. During the process of welcoming and seeing off the guests, he was exposed to too much high-level information of the county party committee. Luo Hui is a smart man and has so many leverages on Qian Dechen. It is possible that he has also collected some evidence of Sun Weiming's violations when he was the county magistrate.
Luo Hui was controlled by Sun Weiming under house arrest. He neither gave him power nor beat him to death. Instead, he kept him under his nose. Of course, the pain was obvious. However, Luo Hui still endured it. He now lives a relaxed life. Drinking tea and reading books have become his daily necessities.
"Fang Zhicheng, can you give me a surprise?" Luo Hui sighed lightly, turned back to the office, then reached out to open a book on the desk, and then drew on it with a pen - temporary forbearance is for a better outbreak in the future.
Outside the window, a few green leaves of the tall sycamore tree still shone green, but were blown away by the wind. It hadn't rained for a long time, so the ground was a little dry and dusty. It looked hazy and dim under the afterglow of the setting sun, making people feel a little depressed.
Sun Weiming stood by the window with his hands behind his back, looking solemn. He had secretly fought with Fang Zhicheng several times, but each time he ended in failure. This made him start to reflect on where he had gone wrong.
Although Fang Zhicheng had strong connections in the city and the province, he was the top leader of Dongtai. Why couldn't he even handle a young man who had just entered the officialdom for two years
Sun Weiming couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried, and he didn't know what to do next, because every move he made was resolved by Fang Zhicheng. He was even a little afraid of Fang Zhicheng now, fearing that Fang Zhicheng would have some tricks up his sleeve that would catch him off guard.
Sun Weiming is a man who is so confident that he is even conceited. He has a strong ability to scheme, otherwise, with Qian Dechen's experience, he would not have been able to scheme against him.
However, Fang Zhicheng seemed to be more cunning, and he seized his weakness. Sun Weiming's biggest weakness was that his connections in the city and the province were not strong enough, but Fang Zhicheng took full advantage of this and frequently used external forces to put pressure on Sun Weiming, making him almost breathless.
He sensed Fang Zhicheng's subtext, "Don't you think you are the emperor of Dongtai? Unfortunately, you are nothing outside of Dongtai!"
There was a knock on the door, and Sun Weiming turned around, only to see Zou Yu walking in with a smile on his face. Zou Yu knew Sun Weiming very well, and seeing that he looked bad, he asked, "Are you worried because of Fang Zhicheng?"
Sun Weiming nodded and said sinisterly, "I can't hold him anymore."
Zou Yu smiled proudly and said softly: "Just because you can't catch him doesn't mean others can't catch him. I came here to bring you good news."
"Oh?" Sun Weiming's expression eased a little. He sat on the sofa and listened quietly to Zou Yu's report.
Zou Yu stroked her skirt and sat down, lowering her voice and asking, "Secretary Weiming, you may not know that Fang Zhicheng's relationships with men and women are very complicated."
Sun Weiming frowned and tapped his fingers on the armrest of the sofa twice. After all, it was not an upright method to suppress Fang Zhicheng with sex. And if there was no evidence, it would be difficult to influence him.
Seeing Sun Weiming's unhappy expression, Zou Yu quickly continued, "Li Hui from our office and Qi Yun, the executive deputy county magistrate, both have a secret relationship with Fang Zhicheng!"
"What?" Sun Weiming frowned. If it was said that Li Hui and Fang Zhicheng had an improper relationship, he could still keep a normal attitude. But when it was said that Qi Yun and Fang Zhicheng had an unspeakable relationship, he immediately became alert. Qi Yun was his important chess piece. If she had a close relationship with Fang Zhicheng, then he had used the wrong person.
Zou Yu quickly added fuel to the fire and said, "I saw Qi Yun and Fang Zhicheng walking very close, and their attitudes were ambiguous when they talked. If you don't believe me, you can arrange for someone to check it out, and they will definitely find out what's going on."
Sun Weiming groaned, and after a long while he spoke, "Don't say anything without evidence. I know Qi Yun very well. She is a very dedicated and excellent cadre. She is so focused on her work that she would have no energy to mess around with other people."
Zou Yu shook his finger. He was dissatisfied with Sun Weiming's high evaluation of Qi Yun. He said jealously, "That's because you don't know. Just like men, women are also afraid of loneliness. Qi Yun has been alone in Dongtai for many years, so it's inevitable that she has wild thoughts. She lived with Fang Zhicheng in the county party committee guesthouse before. I guess they hooked up at that time..."
"Bullshit!" Sun Weiming frowned and cursed angrily, "Zou Yu, don't think that all women in the world are like you, okay?" Zou Yu's slander of Qi Yun made Sun Weiming's heart twitch. He didn't know why, maybe it was because Qi Yun was very important to him, and being betrayed by someone he trusted was hard for the conceited Sun Weiming to accept.
Zou Yu didn't expect Sun Weiming to scold him like this. His face flushed, but he still endured it. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes, and he said bitterly: "I didn't expect you to look down on me so much!"
Sun Weiming sighed, knowing that he had gone too far with what he said just now. He walked to Zou Yu, put his arm around her shoulders, and said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, I've been paying attention to what you said. However, Qi Yun is now an important chess piece I have arranged in the county government. If she has any problems, it will inevitably affect my layout. I still have to think twice before doing anything. Even if Fang Zhicheng has something to do with her, I have to wait until I have re-arranged my layout before I can take action."
Zou Yu nodded, took a tissue from the coffee table and wiped away her tears, sighed, and then turned and left. After leaving the office, a trace of viciousness flashed in her eyes.
Zou Yu originally had a deep hatred for Qi Yun in her heart. Because she would unconsciously compare Qi Yun with herself. Although they were both women, their importance in Sun Weiming's heart was different. She made many sacrifices for Sun Weiming and even gave her body to him. What did Qi Yun do for Sun Weiming? However, in Sun Weiming's heart, Zou Yu could never compare to Qi Yun's importance. He was just a plaything.
It is common for jealousy to breed hatred, and wars between women are often more vicious and cruel. Zou Yu quickly came up with a vicious plan and prepared to implement it against Qi Yun.
Haven't you always claimed to be noble? Then I will strip off your hypocritical coat and expose your scandals in full to the entire Dongtai County.
Chapter 0288 Zou Yu's vicious plan
After leaving the county party secretary's office, Zou Yu looked a little gloomy. Just as she entered the corridor of the Merchants Bureau, Xiong Dechao ran into her and greeted her with a smile: "Director Zou, you don't seem very happy?"
Zou Yu glared at Xiong Dechao, sneered, and said, "Get out of the way, I don't have time to deal with you."
Xiong Dechao showed embarrassment on her face and stepped aside. After Zou Yu passed by, she stared at her slim waist and perky butt and muttered, "Why are you so arrogant? She's just the boss's mistress. Why are you showing off?" In the entire Merchants Group, everyone looked down on Zou Yu, including Xiong Dechao who seemed to be on the same side as her.
After returning to the office, Zou Yu slammed the table with her fist. Zou Yu knew what Xiong Dechao was thinking. Many times when they met privately, Xiong Dechao deliberately sent out signals, trying to kiss Fang Ze.
Xiong Dechao, why don't you take a piss and look in the mirror to see what kind of person you are! Zou Yu thought angrily.
