Special forces soldier demobilization: Starting from the county government compound, a meteoric rise

The week-long public announcement period passed uneventfully.

Liu Ming has officially taken office.

He is the deputy director of the county party committee office and concurrently the director of the county's comprehensive social security management office.

Although the rank is only deputy section chief, in the core department of the county party committee office, the title of "deputy director" is extremely prestigious. Not to mention, he also holds the prestigious title of "director of the comprehensive management office," which sounds quite intimidating.

This signifies that Liu Ming, a "newcomer" who has been there for less than two months, has officially entered the core circle of power in Qingyun County.

However, on his first day in office, he hadn't even started a fire yet.

A "hot potato" that caught him and everyone else completely off guard fell from the sky and hit him hard on the head.

……

That morning, County Party Secretary Li Yuankui personally chaired a special meeting on "adjusting the division of labor among some county leaders and middle-level cadres".

At the meeting, Li Yuankui, contrary to his usual practice, gave "high praise" to Liu Ming's work ability.

"...Comrade Liu Ming is young and promising, courageous and determined; he is a rare talent among our county's youth!"

Li Yuankui sat in the main seat, a warm smile on his face, his tone full of "appreciation" and "expectations" for the younger generation.

"Especially in the recent handling of the 'Nine-Finger Strong' criminal gang and the investigation of the 'Zhang Aiguo kidnapping case,' Comrade Liu Ming demonstrated an extremely strong determination and outstanding ability to fight against criminals!"

"What does this show? It shows that Comrade Liu Ming is a top-notch expert in our county's work on maintaining public order!"

His words were eloquent and impeccable.

Wen Boyan and Xi Wanqing both frowned upon hearing this.

They always felt that this old fox was up to something again.

Sure enough, after a series of bland and uninspiring preludes...

Li Yuankui, finally, revealed his true colors.

"Therefore," he said, looking around the room with an unquestionable tone, "I propose that, in order to better utilize Comrade Liu Ming's expertise and to further strengthen the comprehensive social security management work in our county."

"From today onwards, Comrade Liu Ming will be fully responsible for...**the comprehensive renovation and demolition work in the Chengnan area**!"

"boom!"

The moment the words "demolition in the south of the city" were uttered.

The entire conference room fell into a deathly silence!

Everyone's face showed a look of horror, as if they had seen a ghost.

South of the city!

What place is that?

That's no ordinary urban-rural fringe area!

That place was notorious throughout Qingyun County, and even the entire Ningzhou City, as a lawless zone!

That place is the largest shantytown in Qingyun County, and also the largest "slum".

It's a mixed bag, a den of iniquity.

Thieves, thugs, hooligans, drug addicts... all sorts of people, from the most rebellious to the most ruthless!

Fighting and brawling were commonplace.

Gambling in groups is commonplace.

It is said that even wanted criminals in the city like to hide there.

Because the clan power there is extremely exclusive. Let alone the police, even a strange dog that wanders in might be beaten out with sticks.

And "demolition" is an absolute taboo there!

A few years ago, the county did consider renovating the area.

The first director of the demolition office sent there was hit on the head with a stone as soon as he entered the village.

The second one was even worse; he and his car were overturned and ended up in a stinking ditch.

The third one...

From then on, there was never a fourth husband.

The demolition in the south of the city has become a huge "fire pit" that all the leaders of Qingyun County have avoided!

Now, Li Yuankui is actually going to hand over this "fire pit" to Liu Ming, who has just taken office?

This is fucking...

What is An's intention?

All eyes turned to Liu Ming.

Those eyes were filled with sympathy, pity, and a hint of... schadenfreude.

They knew this was Li Yuankui's "open conspiracy"!

It's "praise to death"!

On the surface, it's giving you more responsibility and promoting you. Putting you in charge of the toughest task in the county is an "affirmation" of your abilities.

But in reality, they're pushing you into a fire pit!

Should you accept this task or not?

If you take this job and don't do it well, it'll be because you're incompetent and have betrayed the organization's trust. Then, we'll have a perfectly legitimate reason to deal with you!

If you don't accept the assignment, it means you're shirking responsibility and afraid to take on difficult tasks! It would also be a huge stain on your political record!

ruthless!

That's fucking ruthless!

This move is far more deadly than all the previous schemes and tricks!

Wen Boyan's face immediately darkened.

"Secretary! I object!" He stood up abruptly. "The situation in the south of the city is far too complicated! Isn't it... too hasty to put a young man like Comrade Liu Ming in charge?"

Xi Wanqing also stood up, her pretty face frosty: "I also think this decision is questionable!"

However, Li Yuankui simply smiled.

He looked at Liu Ming with amusement and provocation in his eyes.

"County Chief Wen, County Chief Xi, there's no need to rush."

"This is just a suggestion."

Ultimately, it depends on Comrade Liu Ming's own wishes.

"How's it going, Comrade Liu?"

"Do you dare take on this responsibility?"

In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Liu Ming.

Everyone's heart was in their throat.

They are all waiting.

How will this young man, who has repeatedly created miracles, deal with this seemingly unsolvable deadlock?

however……

Liu Ming's reaction once again surprised everyone.

He slowly stood up from his seat.

There was not a trace of embarrassment or hesitation on his face.

On the contrary, he even wore a faint, confident smile.

He looked at Li Yuankui, his deep eyes flashing with a sharp light like that of a falcon.

He only said four words.

"It is my duty."

……

After the meeting.

Liu Ming's office doorstep is so crowded that it's practically worn out.

Wen Boyan arrived, Xi Wanqing arrived, and even the police chief Lei Tie rushed over upon hearing the news.

"You're so foolish, Liu Ming! How could you agree to that?" Wen Boyan slammed his fist on the table in frustration. "You're jumping into a fire pit yourself!"

"Exactly!" Xi Wanqing exclaimed anxiously, her usually cool eyes filled with worry. "Those people in the south of the city are completely unreasonable! They're a bunch of lunatics! You'll be in danger if you go!"

"Brother Liu, think it over!" Lei Tie also advised. "That place is incredibly dangerous! My best-performing detective captain was beaten up with a club when he went there to investigate a case last time! You..."

Looking at these "allies" in front of him, who were genuinely worried about him.

A warm feeling washed over Liu Ming.

He smiled and gestured for everyone to remain calm.

He walked to the huge map of Qingyun County on the wall and picked up a red marker.

Then, on the chaotic area of ​​"South of the City" on the map, a huge and eye-catching circle was drawn...

He looked at the circle, without the slightest fear in his eyes.

On the contrary, it even gleamed with a hint of... the excitement a hunter feels when he sees his prey.

"You're all right."

"The south side of the city is a den of thugs, a gathering place for holdout residents, and a lawless zone."

"but……"

He turned around and looked at everyone, a cold smile curving his lips.

"Have you ever considered that a place becomes a 'lawless land' not because there are too many thugs there, but because..."

"The 'protective umbrella' that backs up thugs is too strong."

"And those so-called 'nail households' and 'local bullies' entrenched in the south of the city are nothing more than a few dogs raised by certain people in the murky waters of Qingyun County to amass wealth and prey on others."

He picked up his pen and drew a blood-red "X" heavily on the red circle!

"Since he handed this 'doghouse' over to me."

"Then I'll just take it all, pot and all."

"Wouldn't that be a huge disservice to his 'good intentions'?"

He looked at the map, his eyes cold and his tone filled with an undeniable air of dominance.

"Perfect, let's finish them all at once."
