A man in Handong: living off Zhong Xiaoai

Is this kid not coming back until tomorrow? Who's going to stay and lock the door today? I need to go home and rest early!

However, after thinking for a moment, Li Xia immediately smiled again.

Chen Hai is a coward, so how could he possibly have the guts to wait until tomorrow to come back? He'll definitely be back before lunchtime to tell me, "Teacher Li Xia, I was wrong!"

Bah! That cowardly wimp dared to speak so harshly just now. When he gets back, I, this old comrade, will teach this young man a lesson in how to conduct himself in society!

Inside the police academy in Hong Kong.

Huang Zhicheng was sitting in a police academy office waiting, idly tapping the table with his hand as he waited.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Chapter 425 Governor Qi Tongwei chairs his first meeting with the leadership team

Hearing the knocking at the door, Huang Zhicheng knew that the person he was waiting for had arrived.

"Please come in!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yongren stood in front of Huang Zhicheng.

Chen Yongren stood at attention, saluted Huang Zhicheng, and then said loudly:

"Sir! DPC27149 greets you, sir!"

After hearing what Chen Yongren said, Huang Zhicheng picked up a form on the table containing information about Chen Yongren.

"ID DPC27149, I am Senior Inspector Wong Chi-shing of the Hong Kong Police Force. I have a special mission for you. Are you ready?"

Upon hearing Huang Zhicheng's words, Chen Yongren saluted again and replied:

"Ready, sir!"

Huang Zhicheng looked at the young and energetic Chen Yongren and smiled.

Then, he threw a file folder in front of Chen Yongren.

"There are many people in Hong Kong who stay in the shadows to protect others, so I want to give you a mission: to go undercover for a few years. Once the mission is complete, I guarantee you can return to the police force."

Although Huang Zhicheng said this, he did not know what Chen Yongren's future fate would be, because it was never him who sent Chen Yongren to go undercover, but Jimmy, the leader of the Wo Shing Society.

The platitudes Huang Zhicheng is using now are only for normal undercover agents, but Chen Yongren is a special case.

After Chen Yongren opened the file folder, all the information inside was about the Ni family, and photos of Ni Kun, Ni Yongxiao, and others appeared before his eyes.

Chen Yongren's eyes widened in an instant, because Ni Kun in the photo was his biological father, and Ni Yongxiao was his older brother.

Chen Yongren was not born to Ni Yongxiao's mother. His birth was not legitimate, so he did not take his father Ni Kun's surname Ni, but took his mother's surname Chen.

Huang Zhicheng was unaware that Ni Kun was Chen Yongren's father, nor did he understand why Zhanmi valued this unknown Chen Yongren so much and insisted on sending him to infiltrate the Ni family.

Of course, Huang Zhicheng had no idea why Jimmy sent Chen Yongren to infiltrate the Ni family.

Seeing Chen Yongren's somewhat surprised expression, Huang Zhicheng assumed he was intimidated by the Ni family, one of Hong Kong's four major triads, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, I have people in the Ni family. Someone will find a way to recommend you to Han Chen, one of Ni Kun's men. You can work for him for a few years, understand?"

Chen Yongren is Ni Kun's son, but he has wanted to be a good person since he was a child.

That's why Chen Yongren chose to attend police academy, hoping to become a policeman and a good person in the future.

However, it's unbelievable that his superiors in the police force now want him to return to the Ni family and become an undercover agent for Han Chen.

"Officer Huang, may I know what exactly you want me to do by infiltrating the Ni family?"

This statement made Huang Zhicheng feel somewhat embarrassed, because he didn't know what Jimmy's purpose was in sending Chen Yongren to infiltrate the Ni family.

"As an undercover agent, all you need to do is complete the mission and the orders I give you! I will tell you my orders when I need you to know them, and don't ask questions when I don't need you to know them! My requirements for you now are very simple. The first step is to infiltrate the Ni family according to my instructions and become Han Chen's subordinate. Do you understand?"

After listening to Huang Zhicheng's words, Chen Yongren knew that the police officer in front of him was not asking for his opinion. He knew that he had to go to the Ni family. He had no choice in this matter.

Thinking of this, Chen Yongren swallowed hard, then stood up straight and said:

"Understood, sir!"

Seeing that the matter had been settled, Huang Zhicheng smiled and, while tidying up the things on the table, said:

“ID DPC27149, from today onwards, there will be no longer any record of you in the police force. Until you complete your mission and return to the team, DPC27149 will have no further connection with you.”

Chen Yongren was very disappointed after hearing this. In fact, he didn't want to be an undercover agent; he just wanted to be an ordinary policeman.

However, Chen Yongren had no choice, just as he himself had no choice in being born into the Ni family.

Even though he took his mother's surname, he still couldn't erase the mark of the Ni family from his body.

Chen Yongren knew that many things were beyond his control; perhaps that was just fate.

After taking a deep breath, Chen Yongren saluted Huang Zhicheng again.

"Understood, sir!"

Inside the provincial government's conference room in Handong Province, the first provincial government meeting since Qi Tongwei became governor is being held.

Qi Tongwei looked at everyone present and smiled slightly.

"Today is the first time I have chaired a meeting of the government leadership of Handong Province since I became the governor of Handong Province."

As he spoke, Qi Tongwei glanced at Zhang Baoming, who was sitting in the room.

"I know most of you here, and we've all worked together before. However, we also have a newly appointed comrade joining us today, namely Comrade Zhang Baoming, the newly appointed Vice Governor of Handong Province in charge of work safety. Please welcome him!"

... . ...

Upon hearing Qi Tongwei's words, everyone burst into enthusiastic applause.

At this moment, Zhang Yongxian, the vice governor in charge of education in Handong Province, glanced at He Dongfeng, who was in charge of finance in Handong Province.

Zhang Yongxian felt that He Dongfeng was basically finished this time. Before, he had closely followed Zheng Jindong, hoping to rely on Zheng Jindong to take down Qi Tongwei.

As a result, through their tireless efforts, Qi Tongwei was successfully promoted to the position of governor of Handong Province.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yongxian found it ridiculous. He glanced at Wang Shenhao, who was in charge of the economic work in Handong, and who was also observing He Dongfeng's reaction.

Wang Shenhao seemed to sense that Zhang Yongxian was looking at him, so he turned his head to look at Zhang Yongxian and smiled.

Both of them wanted to see what the consequences would be for He Dongfeng.

He Dongfeng was also very anxious at this moment. He didn't know what to do. He kept taking deep breaths, hoping to calm himself down.

In fact, when He Dongfeng discovered that Zheng Jindong was a fool, he had already anticipated that this day would come.

But for some reason, even after all this time, Qi Tongwei still hasn't had anyone come to deal with him.

On the contrary, the fact that he was kept in this position and ignored himself made He Dongfeng even more uneasy.

He didn't know what Qi Tongwei was thinking, nor did he know what he would ultimately face.

Chapter 426 Do you think that's a nursing home?

To He Dongfeng's surprise, Qi Tongwei would become the governor of Handong Province.

He Dongfeng knew that Qi Tongwei had connections, but he did not expect Qi Tongwei to rise so quickly and even become the governor of Handong Province.

Now that Qi Tongwei is his boss, he feels embarrassed just thinking about it.

Qi Tongwei glanced at the crowd, and it seemed that He Dongfeng did not particularly attract his attention.

"Alright, everyone, let's talk about your work. Since Comrade Liu Linzong's meeting last time, what changes have occurred in your work? Tell us."

As soon as Qi Tongwei finished speaking, everyone present began to speak in turn.

Soon it was Zhang Baoming's turn to the right of He Dongfeng. Zhang Baoming looked at the manuscript in his hand, then smiled and said.

　"June 17th" "Governor Qi, comrades, I haven't been in Handong for very long. Recently, I've been conducting research in some departments under my supervision. I plan to compile a report on the situation of work safety in Handong Province and present it to Governor Qi in detail."

Qi Tongwei nodded after hearing Zhang Baoming's words, but he kept looking at the documents in his hand without looking up.

Seeing this, Zhang Baoming looked somewhat embarrassed and continued speaking.

"There are some things I know I shouldn't have brought up at this provincial leadership meeting. But, Governor Qi, I know this is indeed your responsibility, so after thinking about it, I think I should still report it to you."

Qi Tongwei sensed that Zhang Baoming seemed to have something he couldn't say, and he looked at Zhang Baoming with some curiosity.

"Comrade Baoming, it's alright. Just tell me what's on your mind."

When Zhang Baoming heard Qi Tongwei say that, he smiled somewhat embarrassedly.

"Governor Qi, after I took office in Handong Province, I conducted a brief survey of the departments and units under my supervision. I discovered some practical problems in the use of cadres. For example, Comrade Lü Jingmin, the director of the Provincial Safety Supervision Bureau, has more experience in emergency response to coal mine safety. Fortunately, the position of director of our Provincial Coal Mine Safety Supervision Bureau is now vacant. The previous director retired before I came to Handong. I think Comrade Lü Jingmin would be more suitable to work at the Coal Mine Safety Supervision Bureau?"

As Qi Tongwei listened to Zhang Baoming's words, the expression on his face began to subtly change.

Who doesn't know that Lü Jingmin is a member of the Qi family clique? The first thing this newly appointed vice governor, Zhang Baoming, did upon taking office was to think about how to transfer cadres before even understanding the work safety situation in Handong Province.

Everyone knows that the Safety Supervision Bureau has more real power than the Coal Mine Safety Supervision Bureau. Lü Jingmin has been the director of the Safety Supervision Bureau for many years and he is very prestigious in the bureau.

Zhang Baoming's current desire to transfer Lü Jingmin out of the Safety Supervision Bureau is most likely because Zhang Baoming discovered Lü Jingmin's problems within the bureau and found it difficult to manage the bureau's officials.

The other vice governors present were also somewhat surprised when they heard Zhang Baoming's words.

What's wrong with Zhang Baoming? Why would he raise such a question at this meeting?

The other vice governors did offer their opinions on cadre appointments and removals to Qi Tongwei, but they usually reported to him privately or submitted a written report directly to him.

No one would openly discuss this issue at such a meeting, because it would be awkward for everyone if Qi Tongwei disagreed.

Furthermore, the power to appoint and dismiss cadres in Handong Province originally belonged to the higher authorities; it was a personal right entrusted to Qi Tongwei by Elder Zhong.

There shouldn't be much of a problem discussing it privately with Qi Tongwei; whether they agree or not, no one else will know.

But now that it's being brought up at a meeting, it becomes a discussion, and if anyone has any strange opinions, Qi Tongwei will find it difficult to make a decision.

Moreover, by discussing such matters openly in meetings, those involved, such as Lü Jingmin, would easily know that their problems had been discussed. If a cadre's opportunity for promotion was rejected by Qi Tongwei, it would create enemies for Qi Tongwei.

When Zhao Lichun was in charge, he was the provincial party secretary, and this matter was something that could have been discussed at the provincial party committee meeting.

However, this matter was not within the scope of discussion at the provincial government meeting. Zhang Baoming's actions were undoubtedly disrespectful to Qi Tongwei and would put Qi Tongwei in an awkward position.

Moreover, the person he's now proposing to move is Lü Jingmin, a close confidant of Qi Tongwei.

In an instant, everyone's expression turned grim, and no one spoke, waiting to see what would happen next...

Although Qi Tongwei's expression wasn't very pleasant, he still smiled slightly and continued speaking.

"Any other comments? Please continue."

Zhang Baoming nodded, seemingly unaware that there was anything wrong with what he said, and continued.
