Title: Reborn in Handong, Starting with an Investment in Gao Yuliang

Qiu Gaofei leaned back on the sofa, his tone much calmer than the other two.

"We should have expected that Yi Xuexi would do this."

"What Governor Zhong valued in him was his unwillingness to put aside his work for the sake of connections. His current dissatisfaction over this is pointless."

"As long as he enters the Jingzhou Municipal Government and can help us keep an eye on Li Dakang and Chen Jianguo's actions, other problems can be dealt with slowly."

Zhong Heping raised his hand and pressed it down.

"Don't rush to conclusions."

"To prejudge someone's guilt before even meeting them is not the way to do things."

"I'll ask him myself when he comes in."

The voice just fell.

There was a knock on the office door.

The secretary walked in quickly.

"Governor Zhong, Comrade Yi Xuexi has arrived and is waiting in the area outside. He says he wants to report to you."

Zhong Heping glanced at the clock hanging on the wall.

It's just past nine o'clock.

Yi Xuexi did not return a day early, but he did not delay any longer either.

"Tell him to wait two minutes."

Zhong Heping stood up and tidied up the files on his desk.

"You all go out first and do what we just arranged. Review Ji Changming's materials again before this afternoon."

The four got up and left.

Zhong Heping looked at the closed office door and had already made up his mind.

Whether one can grasp the knife of easy learning will be revealed today.

The office door had just closed.

Qiu Gaofei and his three companions then saw Yi Xuexi waiting in the corridor.

Yi Xuexi stood by the window, a black handbag at his feet, his coat still covered in dust from his journey.

He didn't look around or initiate conversation with anyone.

Zhou Haitao went over first.

"Comrade Yi, we meet again."

Yi Xuexi looked up and recognized Zhou Haitao.

"Comrade Zhou."

Zhou Haitao smiled and nodded, then introduced the other three people.

"This is Comrade Qiu Gaofei from the Governor's Office. This is Comrade Shen Mingliang, and this is Comrade Chen Lidong. We'll be dealing with each other quite a bit in the future."

Yi Xuexi nodded in turn.

"Comrade Qiu, Comrade Shen, Comrade Chen."

Qiu Gaofei's face was still quite warm, and he took the initiative to extend his hand.

"Comrade Yi, welcome to Jingzhou."

Yi Xuexi shook hands with him.

Please take care of me in the future.

Shen Mingliang simply nodded, his face showing little smile.

Chen Lidong looked at the bag at Yi Xuexi's feet, his tone becoming even more abrupt.

"Comrade Yi, Governor Zhong was waiting for you last week. It seems that the matter in Jinshan County is indeed more important than the talks in the province."

The atmosphere in the corridor changed instantly.

Zhou Haitao frowned, just about to speak.

Yi Xuexi looked at Chen Lidong first.

"The matters in Jinshan County are not as important as the arrangements made by the province, but when I received the transfer order, there were still some things I hadn't finished explaining."

"The transfer of cadres is not something that can be done simply by moving a table. Accounts must be settled, projects must be handed over, and issues raised by the public must be addressed."

"I dropped everything and rushed back, and even sitting in Governor Zhong's office today, I don't feel at ease."

Chen Lidong's face darkened.

"You have a point."

"The reasoning isn't something I can articulate; it's something the work itself demonstrates."

Easy Learning answered very directly.

"If Comrade Chen feels that I have done something wrong, he can report it to the organization. I will explain what needs to be explained."

Shen Mingliang's expression darkened upon hearing this.

A deputy mayor who had just been transferred to Jingzhou, and hadn't even stepped into the city government building yet, dared to speak so boldly; he was clearly not someone to be trifled with.

Qiu Gaofei did not continue to cause trouble.

He saw it very clearly.

Easy Learning is not meant to embarrass anyone.

This person didn't take the expressions in the hallway seriously at all.

The secretary came out of the office and waved to Yi Xuexi.

"Comrade Yi Xuexi, Governor Zhong invites you in."

Yi Xuexi picked up the bag from the ground and nodded to the group.

"Excuse me first."

After saying that.

He walked directly to Zhong Heping's office.

The door closed.

Chen Lidong stared at the door, his expression growing increasingly grim.

"You see, this person is really difficult to get along with."

"They can't even be bothered to say a polite word. Who knows how much trouble they'll cause once they're in the Jingzhou City government?"

Shen Mingliang also said, "He even dares to ignore Governor Zhong, so naturally he won't take us seriously."

Zhou Haitao shook his head helplessly.

"Don't take this too seriously."

"If Yi Xuexi were so charming and sociable, always saying nice things to everyone, Governor Zhong might not have transferred him to Jingzhou."

Qiu Gaofei looked at the office door and slowly said, "Whether a person is easy to get along with or not is not important. The key is what he will do after he comes to Jingzhou."

"Governor Zhong doesn't want someone who can just nod."

"Let's talk inside first."

now.

Inside Chung Heping's office.

Yi Xuexi placed his bag next to the chair and stood up straight.

Zhong Heping pointed to the sofa opposite him.

"Please sit down, you must be tired from your journey."

"Thank you, Governor Chung."

After Yi Xuexi sat down, he did not explain why he was late, nor did he offer any defense for himself.

Zhong Heping looked at him, and his interest grew.

If it were anyone else, seeing the governor's displeasure, they would have already rushed to express their stance, saying how much they valued the organization's arrangements.

Easy to learn, yet it's as if nothing happened.

"Has everything been resolved in Jinshan County?"

Zhong Heping asked.

"The basic process is complete."

Yi Xuexi said, "The hotel near the Crescent Lake water source was carrying out illegal construction. The water resources and environmental protection departments have issued a rectification notice, and the temporary drainage ditch has been backfilled and reinforced."

"Several poverty alleviation projects in the county were handed over to the comrade in charge, and the accounts and subsequent milestones were written into the handover materials."

"There are two other issues that have received a lot of feedback from the public. I have spoken with the township officials about them and asked them to report the results on time."

After listening, Zhong Heping nodded slowly.

Yi Xuexi explained everything clearly, without embellishing his own achievements or taking credit for Jinshan County's accomplishments.

The office fell silent.

Zhong Heping did not respond immediately.

It wasn't that Yi Xuexi was disrespecting him, but rather that he had a very rigid order of priorities.

Let's get things done first, then we can talk about other things.

Zhong Heping picked up his teacup and took a sip of hot tea.

"With your temperament, you might suffer when you get to Jingzhou."

"Jingzhou and Jinshan County are different."

"There are many departments here, even more people, large projects, and complex relationships involved. Some people will talk to you about personal connections, some will talk to you about the big picture, and some will hope that you will turn a blind eye to certain things."

"It's fine to talk about personal relationships, but it's also fine to talk about the bigger picture."

"How should the documents be signed, how should the accounts be settled, and who should be responsible for the matter? These things cannot be changed just because someone said a few words."

"That's what I did in Jinshan County, and I won't change it in Jingzhou."

Zhong Heping looked at Yi Xuexi and suddenly smiled.

"You're quite honest."

"It's not necessarily a good thing to say."

Yi Xuexi said, "However, I really don't like to beat around the bush when I do things."

Zhong Heping didn't take that statement to heart.

He didn't bring Yi Xuexi to Jingzhou this time just to find someone who could talk a good game.

Chen Jianguo and Li Dakang are both troublemakers.

To gain a foothold in the Jingzhou City government, connections and flattery won't work.

People like Yi Xuexi may be disobedient, but they can bring some shady things to the forefront.
