Chapter 226: Chapter 226 Everyone’s Thoughts

"Good to see you, old leader."

After the conversation, everyone walked out, and Ji Yang naturally found himself surrounded by the group.

Having seen Ji Yang and received their promotions, each person’s demeanor appeared quite positive.

Ji Yang, in front of many, smiled and said, "Don’t be in a hurry to leave just yet. The leadership will head to Qingyuan Village for a meeting this afternoon. Oh, and Liu Yun, do inform them to prepare the meeting venue."

By this time, Liu Yun had already adjusted her attitude. She had made up her mind to follow Ji Yang closely. She realized she had been blind before, taking the wrong path, but now, with Ji Yang’s support—a powerful one at that—it would be a true missed opportunity if she didn’t cling to him.

Besides, if Ji Yang really wanted her, with his handsome and robust appearance, she wasn’t at a loss—what was there to hesitate about?

As for whether Ji Yang would marry her or not, Liu Yun had thought it through. With Ji Yang’s status, he certainly wasn’t lacking for women. If Ji Yang and Chu Shuyuan were involved, then there was even less chance he would marry her. In the realm of officialdom, many things required an open-minded approach.

Now, hearing Ji Yang instruct her, Liu Yun smiled and said, "Please rest assured, old leader, I will arrange everything properly."

"Alright, I have other matters to attend to. Go ahead and start preparations. Since the meeting is set for this afternoon, officials who are too far away need not come. It’s essential that the bureau chiefs are present."

After delegating the tasks, Ji Yang returned to the conference room.

As one of the county leaders, he naturally had many matters within the county to involve himself in.

Today, the meeting to discuss personnel adjustments was not going to happen. After Ji Yang entered the room, the topic turned to the work in Qingyuan Village.

Compared to the rest of the county, personnel adjustments in Qingyuan Village had moved the fastest, with candidates decided upon in such short order.

There was an inexplicable look in everyone’s eyes when they looked at Ji Yang. With support from the higher-ups, Qingyuan Village could be said to have become Ji Yang’s territory. As the village developed, Ji Yang’s position within the leadership team was set to rise even higher.

Everyone understood that there was nothing they could do about it—after all, Ji Yang was from Qingyuan Village, and he knew which people were capable. Now that he was using them, there were no reservations; and as for personnel adjustments within the county, they naturally wouldn’t just follow Ji Yang’s lead. If that were the case, the county would fall entirely under Ji Yang’s control. So, now was a time for patience—they needed time to better understand the situation here before proceeding with personnel adjustments.

Leaders like Wen Chengming from the city committee were well aware of these issues and did not rush everybody to take quick actions. As for Qingyuan Village, for now, it was all entrusted to Ji Yang.

"Ji, the work in Qingyuan Village is in your hands. That will be your main task. The county will certainly support you," Wen Chengming said.

Hu Guomin quickly added, "Please rest assured, leader, our county committee will fully support the work in Qingyuan Village."

"Alright, you need to expedite the personnel adjustments in the county, but don’t rush it. The People’s Congress must be convened first. In this regard, Mr. Ji Yang must cooperate fully."

Ji Yang replied promptly, "Please rest assured, leader, I will attend to the matter diligently."

"Ji, this afternoon you’ll have county leaders accompany you; after announcing the personnel decisions there, you must take swift action. The People’s Congress needs to convene. Only after you’ve done so can we proceed with meetings at the county level."

"There will be absolutely no problem," Ji replied confidently.

As for his grip on Qingyuan Village, Ji Yang believed he could handle it.

Hu Guomin said, "Leader, our thought is to maintain the status quo for now. We’ll make adjustments to the staff once everyone is more familiar with the situation."

"That’s fine. You handle those matters as you see fit."

Gao Dazhong chimed in: "Economic development is crucial, and you must give it high priority. After so many issues arose, numerous projects have been halted. You should resolve these problems as much as possible, and if feasible, restart the projects that can be resumed."

Gao Dazhong was also feeling the pressure. Heshan County was supposed to be a key district, but now it had become a danger zone. He really did not want to see any more problems arise.

Wen Chengming had the same thought and, looking at Ji Yang, emphasized, "Remember, you absolutely cannot let anything go wrong!"

There was an implied warning in those words!

Ji Yang certainly understood the sentiment and nodded firmly, "Please rest assured, leader."

What Ji Yang did not know was that Qingyuan Village was already in an uproar.

After all, the villagers of Qingyuan were also eagerly awaiting news. Today was the day a new leader was to take charge. With so much having happened in Qingyuan Village, nobody knew what the outcome would be or how the new leader would handle things, not to mention what the personnel adjustments would entail.

The result was that news of the meeting had spread, and Ji Yang, who had previously worked in Qingyuan Village, had now become a leader of the county committee and was effectively the top person in Qingyuan Village. Those who followed Ji Yang had all risen with him. This Ji Yang, undeterred by any nepotism, was playing his cards boldly!

But in their hearts, everyone understood that no matter what they thought, Ji Yang wanted to use his own people, and this was something even the higher-level leaders had not objected to.

If only they had known it would be like this...

One after another, people turned green with regret.
