The Beautiful County Magistrate
Chapter 478: Storm Is Coming!

Chapter 478: Chapter 478: Storm Is Coming!

Jiang City’s former County Secretary, Ge Changhong, had been under disciplinary investigation for some time, and Fu Guotai, the former County Secretary of Cailin County, had wanted to transfer over but was kicked back by Xu Qianli.

In the subsequent period, all the officials of Jiang City were waiting, including Xu Qianli, to see who would take over as the County Secretary.

"Zhang Dongyang!"

Lan Qianrong didn’t beat around the bush and quickly spit out a name.

Zhang Dongyang?

Xu Qianli frowned and thought hard, but no impression came to mind.

Xu Qianli had been in Jiang City for several years and considered himself familiar with the main leadership of Jiang City County and the towns below.

Including the entire officialdom of Zhongzhou City, he could name any notable figures.

Yet, he had never heard of Zhang Dongyang.

"He’s not a cadre from Zhongzhou City, is he? Was he transferred from another place?"

Lan Qianrong said, "Exactly, he was transferred from another place. You should be familiar with it. I heard he comes from Cailin County in Wangdong Province, where he was the former County Magistrate."

"The County Magistrate of Cailin County?"

Xu Qianli was astonished.

Damn, it turned out that the new County Secretary was also from Cailin County.

One could guess with their toes that this was definitely orchestrated by Fu Guotai leveraging the energy of his backing family.

Fu Guotai, whom he himself had kicked back to Cailin County, had turned around and sent Zhang Dongyang here, clearly with hostile intentions.

It seemed he would have headaches in the future.

Lan Qianrong said, "I guess you’ve figured it out, Zhang Dongyang is definitely coming for you. After losing face because of you, how could Fu Guotai just let it go? This arrangement of sending Zhang Dongyang is surely not going to make your life easy. Facing this, what are your plans?"

Xu Qianli sat on Lan Qianrong’s desk, grabbed her small hand, and pinched it as he responded.

"What other plans could I have? I’ll just have to meet force with force and block water with earth."

"I’m not really worried about my side, but rather about your situation."

Lan Qianrong said, annoyed, "What’s there to worry about for me? Besides, you’re nothing to me, why fuss over my affairs?"

Xu Qianli looked at Lan Qianrong and giggled foolishly.

"You’re my wife, if I don’t worry about your affairs, who will?"

"Just accept it considering our relationship; there’s really no need to deny it."

"Let’s talk about work. If nothing unexpected happens, everything goes smoothly, and you might have a chance to become the County Secretary next year."

"But just at this crucial moment, they promote a County Magistrate from another place to become the County Secretary, which means the position won’t be vacant next year, and this really hampers your future career prospects."

"It’s all Fu Guotai and Zou Ming’s doing. Now that Zou Ming has turned into a vegetable, that rat Fu Guotai is still bouncing around causing trouble; we need to find a way to severely deal with him!"

Speaking of Fu Guotai, Xu Qianli was filled with anger, itching in rage.

Previously, everything was fine; Lan Qianrong was serving as the County Magistrate, and Ge Changhong was the County Secretary. Everything was set for next year’s election; Ge Changhong would retire smoothly, making way for Lan Qianrong to smoothly take over as the new County Secretary, ensuring a smooth transition.

That was the best choice for Xu Qianli, not having to worry about any disturbance, so that he could steadily develop his career, accumulate enough political achievements, and gradually climb up the ladder.

However, an unexpected change occurred, Ge Changhong was taken down.

Ge Changhong was taken down by Zou Ming under the orders of Fu Guotai. If it had not been for Ge Changhong’s removal, when he stepped down next year, the position would have definitely been Lan Qianrong’s.

Fu Guotai came running over, only to be sent flying with a kick by him, but then, unexpectedly, Zhang Dongyang appeared.

Zhang Dongyang became the new County Party Secretary, and unless there were major issues, he would not be transferred after just a few months; hence, there would be no vacant position for County Party Secretary next year.

Moreover, if Zhang Dongyang managed to stabilize his position in Jiang City, both he and Lan Qianrong’s days were likely not going to be comfortable.

After all, it was all Fu Guotai’s doing, that bastard really needed a lesson!

Lan Qianrong said, "He really is repulsive, but since he’s in Wangdong Province, you don’t have much chance to deal with him. Let’s not talk about the County Party Secretary position for now. Tell me, what are you planning to do about the case? I thought you would definitely take harsh revenge on Lin Monong and Lin Feng siblings, but you’ve been so calm this half month. Do you plan to let them off the hook?"

Previously, Xu Qianli had investigated and found the mastermind behind the case and had informed Lan Qianrong.

Lan Qianrong guessed that, given Xu Qianli’s personality, he would hit back at Lin Family siblings with the strongest counterattack.

However, as she waited and waited, there was no action, which finally made her unable to contain her curiosity.

Mentioning Lin Monong and Lin Feng, Xu Qianli sneered.

"Those two bastards dared to scheme against me in secret, trying to ruin me completely. I wouldn’t let them off that easily."

"The reason I haven’t taken action is because I’m deliberately letting my guard down to make them think I’m unaware of their actions, so that they lower their guard."

"Privately, I’ve already been making arrangements, almost ready to make a move."

"Beautiful lady, just watch and see."

During the conversation, Xu Qianli made a phone call, instructing Qin Ran, whom he had sent out, to proceed with the plan.

After being plotted against previously, he had understood the whole situation, knowing it was Lin Monong’s doing. He had been pretending as if nothing had happened, harboring his anger, to deceive Lin Monong and Lin Feng.

According to the timing, the moment to act was almost upon them.

Lin Monong, Lin Feng, you bastards plotted to ruin me, Xu Qianli, and tried to bring me down. Wait for my revenge!

Qingshan Town.

Wild Game Villa.

A few hunters who had supplied the villa for years drove over in a pickup truck, found Li Fang, and told her that they had caught something good today and wanted a good price for it.

Upon hearing there was something worthwhile, Li Fang became interested, asked them to unload the truck for inspection, and her eyes immediately lit up.

What the hunters had brought was actually a leopard.

This creature was a first-class protected animal; Qingshan Town hadn’t seen one in years, and today to have hunted a leopard was indeed a stroke of luck.

In addition to the leopard, there were several other fine items, which delighted Li Fang. She generously handed over a stack of bills and bought them all.

With such treasures, she naturally had to serve her most generous patrons. Li Fang immediately made phone calls to a few big bosses and specifically invited Deputy Town Chief Lin Feng to try the delicacy.

Inside a government office building, Lin Feng was playing video games, and when he heard about the good items at Wild Game Villa, his appetite was whetted. Turning to Lin Monong, who was sitting at the desk handling his work, he said, "Cousin sister, Wild Game Villa got a leopard. That thing is a real treat. Shall we go try it?"

Lin Monong replied, "I’ve told you to be cautious during this period because of Xu Qianli’s possible retaliation. Are you not afraid that this is a trap set by Xu Qianli for you?"
