36: Chapter 36 Promotion Imminent 36: Chapter 36 Promotion Imminent “Ji, set up some work and come with us to the county,”
The telephone on the desk rang; it was Chu Shuyuan who called.
After acknowledging with a word, Ji Yang looked at the people who were staring at him and said to Miao Xiaoying, “Miao, I’m going to the county with the leaders.
Please handle any matters that arise while I’m gone.”
The meaning of his words was quite clear; during his absence, the work of the Party and government office would be overseen by Miao Xiaoying.
Miao Xiaoying was instantly delighted and immediately replied, “Please rest assured, Director, I will handle everything well.”
Although this woman liked to be involved in other matters, her working capability was not low.
Ji Yang trusted that she would handle the responsibilities without any issues.
After finishing his statement, he didn’t concern himself with what everyone else thought and took a bag before heading out.
Now Ji Yang started to understand why the subordinates who followed their leaders always liked to carry bags; they held many things inside.
When leaders went out and needed to pay for things, it was the followers who were responsible; moreover, having a bag meant the leader’s personal items could also be kept inside.
In short, the uses were numerous.
It was then Ji Yang noticed that, apart from Chu Shuyuan, Discipline Committee Secretary Yan Xingshun and Organization Department Head Huang Yu were also walking together.
Everyone settled into a car, with Ji Yang driving toward the county.
As they sat in the car, nobody spoke, appearing quite excited.
Ji Yang’s mind suddenly understood; he guessed that the organization had called them for a collective discussion.
After driving for a while, Chu Shuyuan said, “Things in the village are nearly dealt with; our next step is to shift the cadres’ focus back onto their work.
After so many incidents, the work in the entire village has fallen behind.
Old Yan, you might need to put more effort into this.”
Yan Xingshun replied, “Yes, I hadn’t expected so many issues to arise.
Now all the village cadres are feeling uneasy.
We must stabilize the team before we can address anything else effectively.”
Ji Yang, while carefully driving, listened without interjecting.
He was aware of the situation; originally he wanted to check on the enterprises, but before accomplishing anything, some people had been arrested, which made him hesitant to immediately take any action.
After all, he didn’t know whether there would be more arrests in the next step.
“Just as none of us have been in Qingyuan Village as long as Ji has, do you have any thoughts on Qingyuan’s development?” Huang Yu asked at that moment.
Caught off guard by the question, Ji Yang said, “I’ve only arrived two years earlier.
From what I know, many villages are nestled deep in the mountains, and the mountain goods are most abundant.
In this aspect, I feel that this is where we should start.”
Yan Xingshun commented, “Ji is right.
I’ve also learned some details.
The mountains are indeed a treasure trove.
If we do well with this aspect, we might carve out a new path.”
Chu Shuyuan stated, “The paper factory set up by the former leadership was only moderately profitable, and they failed to control the pollution.
Such polluting factories should be shut down.”
“Yes, there are several factories with such pollution issues.
However, half of the village’s revenue comes from them.
We need to decide how to address this, which is a question that requires careful study.”
Ji Yang said, “Leaders, in fact, we have another great advantage here; there is a hot spring in our area.
If we develop that well, we might create a significant industry from it.”
Everyone was aware of that hot spring; it was previously monopolized by Lu Shijie, nearly reserved for their own enjoyment.
Now hearing Ji Yang’s suggestion, Huang Yu praised, “Young people do have sharp minds; that’s indeed a good option.
As long as we have the capital to develop it, we are sure to succeed.”
Chu Shuyuan mentioned, “Going forward, Qingyuan Village will need to think of various methods.
We can’t allow our need for money to lead to environmental destruction.”
After discussing for a while, Chu Shuyuan turned to Ji Yang and said, “The county’s Organization Department called today for a meeting; it’s likely concerning adjustments in the village.”
Huang Yu smiled and exclaimed, “First, I must congratulate Miss Chu on your promotion.”
Yan Xingshun also added, “With Secretary Chu’s leadership, we are certain to perform well.”
It was at this point that Ji Yang realized Chu Shuyuan was probably being transferred to the county.
According to what she said, an appointment to the Discipline Committee was confirmed.
But why had they called him along as well?
At this thought, Ji Yang’s heart started racing; he suddenly felt that this assignment might not be as simple as being the director and that he might advance even further.
The car sped into the County Committee compound.
After getting out of the car, Chu Shuyuan looked at the others and said, “I hope you can unite and do your work well.
I have things to attend to, so you can head back on your own after you’re done.”
Then, turning to Ji Yang, she said, “Learn more from the older comrades.”
Ji Yang quickly replied, “I will.”
Chu Shuyuan walked ahead, and they followed her into the building.
However, it was clear to see she was heading toward the Secretary’s office, while the rest were going to the Organization Department Head’s office.
Following the two, Ji Yang felt his heart nearly leap out of his chest, struggling to keep it down. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn novel⟡fire.net
Looking at them, he saw they were hardly any calmer than he was.
All three remained silent as they silently proceeded inside.
The Organization Department was on the fourth floor.
Once inside, they found it very quiet.
Yan Xingshun evidently knew where to go and led them to the offices.
Upon arrival, a staff member inquired and then guided them to a specific office.
