In name only: The land of Handong, I shall rule its fate.

A large group of people entered.

The only people in the conference room were Gao Yuliang, Tian Guofu, and Shen Shanhe, who was already boasting about drinking plain water before the meeting even started.

Gou Ride!

Lin Zhiyuan glanced at his sharp eyes and knew that making non-stick pans would only cause him trouble.

Ah!

I'll show you what's what tomorrow.

Shen Shanhe shuddered when he received the look in his eyes. Was this guy planning to mess with him?

No!

I can't attend tomorrow's democratic life meeting. Given Lin Zhiyuan's temper of cursing and digging up ancestral graves, I'll definitely be too ashamed to face my fellow villagers.

Hey!

Shao Qinghua, you've always wanted to participate in the Standing Committee, right? You can't be a member of the Standing Committee now, but you'll definitely have a place in the democratic life meeting.

I'm so smart!

Shen Shanhe gave himself a thumbs up, then picked up his thermos and took a big gulp, leisurely watching the world's events unfold.

Everyone took their seats.

"Today's meeting has only one agenda item, which is a final resolution regarding the Chuzhou incident."

Sha Ruijin clasped his hands together on the table, exuding an imposing aura, finally befitting a provincial class monitor: "Before the meeting begins, we have an old friend attending as well."

"Let us welcome Comrade Xu Changhe, head of the 12th Inspection Team and head of the special investigation team for the Chen Guohua case."

Sha Ruijin stood up and applauded in welcome.

Tong Li, the provincial party committee's chief steward, and Gao Yuliang, the person who made the mistake, stood up immediately afterward.

The provincial government is considering taking action.

But when he looked back, Lin Zhiyuan remained motionless in his seat, and even Liu Changsheng, who had only raised half of his buttocks, sat back down after a moment's thought.

The scene fell silent for a moment.

But the conference room door was already open.

Xu Changhe strode in carrying several documents and immediately noticed the distinct atmosphere of the meeting room. However, he remained calm and faced Sha Ruijin head-on.

Having worked together at Hanjiang for over half a year, I have a deep understanding of Lin Zhiyuan's temperament.

That was like a rock in a latrine, smelly and hard.

The rat poison guy was laughing so hard his eyes were wrinkled.

Xu Changhe is a double team leader sent down by his superiors, yet you dare to be so disrespectful to him, Lin Zhiyuan, what can I say about you?

That's far too immature!

"Secretary Sha, please continue the meeting. I will read out several decisions from higher authorities at the end of the meeting."

Xu Changhe spoke calmly, showing no trace of his initial fury.

"Governor Zhiyuan and Secretary Guofu, you are the Standing Committee members who personally went to Handong and understand the overall situation best."

"Who would like to give a report first?"

Sha Ruijin maintained a contented smile throughout; the feeling of watching others being made a fool of was wonderful.

This is the attitude a provincial party secretary should have, instead of being beaten by mobs every day like before.

"Secretary Sha, let me go first."

Tian Guofu glanced at Xu Changhe, then at Lin Zhiyuan, and stood up.

"Through the efforts of Qin Zhuofeng and other comrades in the investigation and evidence collection, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection has verified the identities of 31 officials at the bureau-level, including Zhang Xueyang, the mayor of Chuzhou City, the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, the head of the Organization Department, the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, the head of the Publicity Department, the head of the United Front Work Department, the chief procurator of the Municipal Procuratorate, and the president of the Municipal Intermediate People's Court."

"Cadres below the bureau/department level, including those at the division level..."

"The Chuzhou incident was extremely serious. The pursuit involved fierce exchanges of fire and hostile attitudes. At its core, it was a classic case of a local second-in-command who had long been in control colluding with a few unscrupulous cliques to erode and corrupt other officials and drag the public down with him."

"The provincial party committee standing committee should take this into consideration, take strict precautions, and prevent such a serious incident from happening again."

Tian Guofu rambled on and on, spouting a lot of nonsense, like beans pouring from a bamboo tube.

But the staggering figures revealed in the seemingly trivial conversation still shocked other provincial committees that were unaware of the full picture.

This is terrifying.

No wonder Jiang Anhu was forced to commit suicide to end his life, thus cementing their crimes.

Li Dakang, in particular, had a strange idea: the thunderbolt from Jingzhou didn't seem so unacceptable, at least it didn't explode.

Sha Ruijin felt the same way. He had already obtained the data, but listening to it and seeing it again still made his heart ache.

Thank goodness... thank goodness...

He arrived late!

But thinking about this...

Sha Ruijin glanced again at Wu Chunlin, who had finally escaped from the capital. He had managed to fill all the gaps in such a short time.

No wonder he was acting so crazy recently; now he has a reason. Otherwise, the capital wouldn't have let him leave safely.

He's definitely a capable and practical person.

Unfortunately, it was not used by him.

"besides."

"Among Chen Guohua's children and grandchildren, only Chen Qunfang has never directly received the dividends from the overseas foundation. All the others have been arrested, apprehended, and transferred to the Municipal Procuratorate."

"Furthermore, existing evidence confirms that Yao Xinyi, a retired judge of the Provincial High Court, was involved in judicial misconduct, illegally protected shareholders of Lu Wucheng's company, and used her influence to extend to the Chuzhou judiciary. She is one of the major factors contributing to the corruption in the Chuzhou Intermediate Court."

"The same was true of Lin Zhengfa, the former executive chief prosecutor of the provincial procuratorate, who even interfered in the internal affairs of the Chuzhou Municipal Procuratorate on multiple occasions in violation of regulations."

"While his niece, Lin Huahua, was detained by the Discipline Inspection Commission, she used her family's influence to send messages to outsiders through dispatched discipline inspection cadres."

After finishing his report, Tian Guofu plopped down on the floor.

Damn!

The calm expression on Germ Rat Agent's face changed instantly. Hadn't he already dealt with that person? Why was the Discipline Inspection Commission investigating him again?

Are they not going to bring Chen Hai up again?

Damn it!

Bad apples should not be allowed to stay.

The Standing Committee unanimously passed a resolution to expel those who were dismissed and transfer those who were transferred to other positions.

"After dealing with the corrupt officials headed by Zhang Xueyang."

"A conservative approach was taken towards the business community."

Lin Zhiyuan said calmly, "After Comrade Haiping and Comrade Jingtao took office, with the assistance of Comrade Shengbang and Comrade Chusheng, they quickly stabilized the economic curve and ensured a smooth transition."

"There has been no significant decline."

"At the same time, after announcing the five major 100 billion-level development clusters in Chuzhou, agriculture, industry and service industries have ushered in a comprehensive investment boom. The economic curve has risen instead of falling, and has ushered in a temporary increase of 300%, with the overall trend being steady and positive."

"Thanks to the steadfast efforts of the Chuzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau, social order was maintained and no large-scale unrest occurred."

Lin Zhiyuan did not mention any violations of discipline or law. As the executive vice governor, he should only focus on two things: economic stability and long-term peace and security.

Snapped!Snapped!

A lone clap rang out in the conference room; it was Li Dakang.

It wasn't about shameless flattery, but rather, as someone who had experienced despair, he was the one who could best empathize with the situation in Chuzhou.

Stability is so hard to come by.

A moment later, the applause grew louder.

Liu Changsheng's applause was the loudest, completely ignoring Sha Ruijin and Xu Changhe opposite him. Anyone with a government background knows that it's easy to overturn the chessboard but difficult to rebuild it.

But Lin Zhiyuan did it effortlessly.

And that spirit of a stand-in.

That applause!

It belongs to Lin Zhiyuan.

"You little brat!"

Xu Changhe looked at Lin Zhiyuan opposite him and sighed deeply. He had evolved again!

Previously, in the East China Sea and the Han River, there was cooperation, but more often it was still a lone wolf. Progress was too fast, the term was too short, and the foundation was not solid enough. But now... it is the real trend.

Cough!

Xu Changhe spoke up to suppress the long-lasting applause.
