Me! A high-ranking official!

Zhao Jianguo's hands flew across the keyboard as he poured out all the valuable information he had in his head.

After typing out two thousand words, Zhao Jianguo carefully checked them and then converted the file directly into an uneditable PDF format.

He didn't report it through the Bureau of Culture and Tourism's office system, nor did he go to Zhang Baocheng. Instead, he took out his phone, opened WeChat, and sent the document directly without hesitation.

They bypassed their superiors and reported the matter directly to Zhou Qingyan, the county party secretary!

He leaned back in his chair, watching the notification that the document had been successfully sent. "Zhang Baocheng, didn't you want to steal my credit and prove your loyalty to the county? I'll hand this key directly to the highest judge!" Who was Zhou Qingyan? She was a shrewd person who wouldn't tolerate even the slightest injustice! Once she read this supplementary opinion and compared it to Zhang Baocheng and Li Dafang's clumsy performance in practice, she would immediately understand that the people in the Culture and Tourism Bureau were nothing but a bunch of soulless incompetent fools!

Without this core logic, you won't even be able to get the show going! At that point, Zhou Qingyan's disappointment and dissatisfaction with Zhang Baocheng will snowball.

This was the parting gift Zhao Jianguo gave to Zhang Baocheng: an invisible noose that tightened more and more each time!

After doing all this, Zhao Jianguo opened Zhang Baocheng's WeChat.

In the past, even when sending a message to his subordinates, he would carefully choose his words and add respectful terms such as "Hello, Director Zhang" or "Please give your instructions." But now that the facade has been torn off, he's too lazy to even put on that last bit of hypocritical pretense.

He coldly typed a sentence in the chat box:

"Director Zhang, I obey the bureau's organizational arrangements and am willing to be assigned to a village."

Without asking for instructions, without exchanging pleasantries, and without any intention of getting up to go to the director's office for a face-to-face meeting, he sent the message, threw his phone on the table, and stretched out a big yawn.

Half an hour later, he stood up and slowly strolled to the personnel department.

Xu Ling was sitting at her desk organizing files when she saw Zhao Jianguo enter. A look of sympathy and regret immediately appeared on her face, and she quickly stood up: "Jianguo, you...you really agreed?"

Clearly, Zhang Baocheng had received the WeChat message and quickly relayed it to the personnel department.

He smiled, looking nonchalant and carefree: "It's all about obeying the overall situation, Sister Xu. Has the document from the bureau assigned to me come down yet? I'm here to see which famous mountain I'm going to be sent to be a mountain king."

"The document has already been sent to the bureau for backup, just waiting for names to be filled in..." Xu Ling sighed, pulled out a red-headed document stamped with the official seal of the county party committee's organization department from the bottom of the drawer, and handed it over.

He took the document, his gaze bypassing the flowery, official rhetoric at the front, and landing directly on the list of village-based officials in the appendix.

In the corresponding position of the "Linshui County Culture and Tourism Bureau" column, the three characters are clearly written: Luojia Village.

Upon seeing the place name, his pupils constricted sharply, and his brows furrowed instantly.

Luo Family Village!

Although he had worked in the county government office for more than ten years and rarely went to the grassroots level, he had a general understanding of the situation in all the villages and towns in Linshui County.

Luo Family Village is known throughout the county as a "tough nut to crack" and a "mess"!

First, its geographical location is extremely remote, situated at the westernmost edge of Linshui County, more than 40 kilometers away from the county seat. Moreover, its geographical location is extremely unique, situated precisely in a no-man's-land where three counties, or even two provinces, meet.

This place is only three kilometers away from Dongjiao Village, which he visited two days ago, the location of the underground black dog farm that Liu Tao took him to. They are practically neighboring villages!

The village is far from the capital and transportation is extremely inconvenient, resulting in a serious lack of management. In addition, it was a deeply impoverished village a few years ago. Although it has nominally escaped poverty in recent years, the situation in the village is still very chaotic. Clan forces are deeply entrenched, and the local people are notoriously fierce. Fighting with other counties and villages over water and land is commonplace.

If you were thrown into such a poor and desolate place, where even the village officials might not pay attention to you, forget about achieving any results in rural revitalization. You might even have trouble carrying out normal work, and you could even be driven out by troublemakers!

"Zhang Baocheng, Zhang Baocheng, your heart is truly black!"

His fingers, gripping the document, turned slightly white as he gritted his teeth inwardly. Zhang Baocheng wasn't sending him to the grassroots for training; he was clearly pushing him into a dead end, trying to trap him in that no-man's-land so he wouldn't even get a chance to turn his career around!

Looking at Zhao Jianguo's gloomy face, Xu Ling lowered her voice with some reluctance: "Jianguo, this Luojia Village... It is said that the previous village cadre sent by the town was surrounded by several villagers and verbally abused by them in the village committee for less than three months because of the land occupied for road construction. Later, they even got into a fight. The cadre was so scared that he claimed to be sick and asked to be transferred... Director Zhang's arrangement is indeed a bit too ruthless."

Hearing Xu Ling's reminder, he took a deep breath.

Luo Family Village? A no-man's-land? With its fierce and unruly people?

If it were Zhao Jianguo, the honest clerk who only earned five thousand yuan a month and was powerless, he would indeed have been completely taken advantage of if he had gone to that kind of place.

But who is he now?

He's a burly man whose physique has been enhanced by the Treasure Bowl, capable of kicking a 200-pound Neapolitan Mastiff to death with a single kick! He also carries over 14 million yuan in cash that he can access at any time! More importantly, his location is right next to the underground black dog farm in Dongjiao Village, which Liu Tao and Li Gan visited!

In such a remote and inaccessible place, Zhang Baocheng's reach was limited, and the county committee's eyes couldn't be on that area either.

Isn't that the perfect breeding ground for him to quietly amass wealth and recklessly build his own underground network of influence?!

Once he goes there, Zhao Jianguo will be a complete local tyrant!

"It's alright, Sister Xu." Zhao Jianguo casually folded the document twice, stuffed it into his pocket, and his face revealed a hint of eager excitement: "Poor mountains and bad waters breed unruly people, but they also bring opportunities, right? Since Director Zhang has so much confidence in me, I definitely have to go to Luo Family Village to hone my skills and make sure I don't let him down!"
