Chapter 157: Chapter 157: Arriving at Jiangyang County

Ji Yang didn’t bring much with him, just a backpack, and arrived at Jiangyang County.

When he entered the county committee building, he found the building to be very impressive and well-decorated.

Looking around, this was clearly the center of the entire county town, there was nothing better constructed than this place. Compared to this, the houses where the common people lived were in disrepair.

Goodness!

Seeing this, Ji Yang could sense the living conditions of the future leaders here.

When he reached the Organization Department, he noticed that everyone seemed very busy. It appeared that many people had rushed over from various places, almost all of them carrying their own luggage.

"Hello, whom should I look for to register?" Ji Yang knocked on the office door.

The person inside immediately stood up and asked, "Who are you?"

"My name is Ji Yang."

"Oh, Mr. Ji Yang, you finally arrived; we have been waiting for you. The minister mentioned that he wants to talk to all of you collectively once everyone has arrived, and now we are just waiting for you."

Meanwhile, he checked Ji Yang’s documents, made some records, and then said, "Please follow me."

Ji Yang followed him into a meeting room where he saw some people already seated.

The people there were both men and women, some younger, and some in their forties. When Ji Yang entered, they all looked his way.

The person leading Ji Yang didn’t explain anything but gestured for him to sit before saying, "Everyone is here now, I will go call Minister Lu."

Everyone was clearly serious, all sitting there waiting; Ji Yang also didn’t say anything, merely waited.

Soon, the person who had led him in brought in a beautiful woman in her thirties.

"Comrades, this is Minister Lu Qiuying from the Organization Department."

Everyone immediately stood up.

Lu Qiuying smiled and said, "No need to be so formal, please sit down, let’s take care of the matter."

As she sat down, everyone else also sat down.

Lu Qiuying had a document in her hands which she looked at and said, "On behalf of the county committee, I am here to have a collective discussion with you, starting now."

Everyone sat up straight.

Lu Qiuying continued, "Some incidents have occurred in Jiangyang County which have drawn high-level attention. Officials have been specially drawn from various places to work here. All of you are officials pulled from different areas and are very capable. After organization-level deliberation, several of you will be candidates for the Huancheng Township team. I hope you can all work together well. Now, I announce the decision of the county committee meeting."

Lu Qiuying then took out a document and began to announce.

Everyone listened intently, somewhat aware of the situation but still keen to confirm the specifics.

Ji Yang was also listening attentively.

Secretary Xun Liqiang was the person Ji Yang was most interested in.

At that moment, Xun Liqiang stood up.

He was a man in his forties and looked very astute.

Then, the town mayor, Ji Yang.

Ji Yang naturally stood up as well.

Everyone was somewhat surprised to see Ji Yang’s situation; after all, Ji Yang was quite young and many suspected that he was from a prominent family sent here to gain experience.

Deputy Secretary Guo Huaijie, a young man, not much older than Ji Yang, dressed in branded clothing.

Seeing his outfit, Ji Yang had some realizations—the real young master was here.

Deputy Mayor Le Jianjun also looked the part of a young master, seated with Guo Huaijie, clearly familiar with each other.

Ji Yang felt a headache coming on, realizing that these two were likely to join forces, which might make everyone’s days more challenging ahead.

Disciplinary Secretary Liang Xiaoyu was a beautiful woman who appeared to be a young housewife, also dressed in fashionable attire.

Armed Forces Minister Zhou Shan was a man in his forties, always smiling, but showing no specific details.

Organization Committee Member Qiu Shujuan was even younger, and it was not clear whether she was married. From her overall appearance, her dress was proper, but nothing else stood out.

Publicity Committee Member Feng Jing was another beautiful woman, likely under thirty, the most attractive among them, and even sitting down, her figure was inevitably noticeable.

Deputy Mayor Tian Yong was a man in his thirties, his haircut reminiscent of rural areas surrounding cities.

Ji Yang was quietly observing these people, and they were likewise observing him.

Lu Qiuying did not elaborate further on everyone’s roles and, once the announcements were made, added, "This is the county committee’s decision; everyone may speak now."

This was the cue for everyone to express their agreement.

Clearly, everyone here was experienced in official circles, and it was certain that no one would oppose at this time; they all expressed willingness to follow the organization’s arrangement and work together harmoniously.

Ji Yang didn’t seek any exceptions and expressed his agreement as well.

Lu Qiuying smiled and said, "Right now, the situation in Huancheng Township is not very good. Many departments’ original leaders have encountered issues. You all must start work immediately upon arrival and not let the overall work come to a standstill."

With this statement, everyone felt even more the challenges of their upcoming duties.

"Alright, get to know each other, and this afternoon I will accompany you to Huancheng Township to assume your positions."

Lu Qiuying clearly had a lot of work at the moment. After finishing her discussion with everyone, she arranged for the Organization Department staff to manage service tasks, no accommodations were arranged, as they would be assuming duties that afternoon.

Everyone was then led to an inner dining hall in the county guest house.
