In officialdom: After she left, I rose rapidly through the ranks!

Chen Jinghan laughed and put his arm around Boss Wang's shoulder, saying, "Brother Wang, don't scare my little brother. He hasn't been working for long and he's easily frightened."

"If the matter were reported to the discipline inspection commission of their township, or even the county discipline inspection commission, his behavior could very well lead to his dismissal."

"That won't do. There's no need to escalate this to this point. If my brother is fired, Boss Wang, my second uncle and aunt won't be able to live anymore."

"Forget it, forget it."

"This money is on me!"

Upon hearing this, Boss Wang nodded and said, "Alright, since Brother Jinghan has spoken up, I will grant him this favor."

"Young man, remember to respect your older brother from now on. Don't think you can be arrogant just because you have a job. Let me tell you, more than 80% of the people eating here are public officials from various units, and there are quite a few leaders among them."

"Believe it or not, I can just get a few of my friends here, and you won't be able to work anymore!"

"Apologize to my brother Jing Han right away, and then let this matter go."

Threat?

Are 80% of them public employees from various units?

That would be wonderful.

A smile appeared on Chen Jingcheng's lips. From the moment he entered, he had already seen many public officials. Although he didn't recognize them, he could tell whether they had jobs or not.

Moreover, and most importantly, Linchuan County is not a wealthy place.

This is a small county town, only this big. There are more than a hundred units of all sizes in the county. How many people are there?

Large organizations, such as public security bureaus and hospitals, can have more than a thousand employees.

There are more than a dozen smaller ones. How many are there on average?

And this doesn't even include townships, communities, or some county-owned enterprises.

Therefore, in small county towns, public officials are the main force of consumption.

This is beyond doubt.

It's not that public officials are particularly wealthy; the key is that there are many of them, their income is stable, and when you add in family gatherings, friend get-togethers, asking for favors, and networking, you can imagine the extent of their wealth.

This hot pot restaurant is great, really great!

Chen Jingcheng took out his wallet, which contained only a little over seven hundred yuan.

However, it's enough to pay for this obviously extorted meal.

After handing the money to the waiter, Chen Jingcheng glanced at Chen Jinghan, then at Boss Wang, shook his head, and said nothing.

"Dad, Mom, let's go."

Upon hearing this, Chen Dachuan and Li Sumei gritted their teeth and got up to leave.

At this moment, although Chen Jinghan felt relieved, he was still somewhat unsatisfied seeing Chen Jingcheng actually take out money and not beg for mercy.

"Chen Jingcheng, you've got guts."

"Fine, I don't believe you'll ever back down. You just wait and see."

Chen Jingcheng glanced back at Chen Jinghan, his gaze as indifferent as the frigid weather outside.

"Chen Jinghan, I'm waiting for you!"

Then, Chen Jingcheng turned around and left with his parents.

After leaving the restaurant, Chen Dachuan could no longer contain himself and said through gritted teeth, "This is outrageous! They're utterly inhuman!"

"What happened to Chen Jinghan? How did he become like this?"

"Even if there are any conflicts or misunderstandings between us, we are still family. This is too much."

"And this boss, I'm going to report him, I absolutely have to report him!"

"What kind of sesame paste can sell for 500 yuan for a small box?"

"And Jingcheng, why did you give him money?!"

"Even if this sesame sauce really is this price, it wasn't us who ordered it. We ordered the regular sesame sauce!"

"This is extortion!"

Chen Dachuan was furious. Although he was honest, he couldn't help but feel angry about this blatant bullying.

Chen Jingcheng chuckled, took out the invoice from his pocket, and said, "Dad, Mom, don't worry."

"Whether it's extortion or whatever, I've already got the invoice. They want to mess with me, but they haven't considered how serious their actions are."

"It's Friday, Mom and Dad. Don't worry, I'll definitely get revenge for you."

Chen Dachuan and Li Sumei naturally trusted Chen Jingcheng, but looking at Chen Jingcheng's cold face and thinking about his current status, they still hesitated.

"Jingcheng, of course we trust you. Chen Jinghan and the others don't know who you are. Once they do, they definitely won't dare to mess with you."

"But don't make too much of a scene."

"Don't let this affect your future, and don't cause you any trouble. At worst, we'll just swallow this."

"Don't do things you shouldn't do."

Chen Jingcheng smiled and shook his head, saying, "Don't worry, I definitely won't do anything I shouldn't."

"However, some things have already been decided, must be done, and will definitely be done."

"So, Dad, Mom, believe me, we'll have results soon."

"Those who do many evil deeds will surely perish; their time to cry will come."

After saying that, Chen Jingcheng led his parents home.

On the way, Chen Jingcheng glanced back at the extremely popular hot pot restaurant, a cold smile appearing on his lips.

"You're hosting a banquet for Deputy Director Lin and others on Monday night, right?"

"More than 80% are public officials from the county, right?"

"That's wonderful!"

"My inspection team was just wondering where to start, but now it's decided, this is it!"

At this moment, if Chen Jinghan and Boss Wang knew what consequences the people they had offended would bring them, they would probably be begging for mercy in front of Chen Jingcheng, even if it meant weeping and begging for forgiveness. Deputy Director Lin, who was invited by Chen Jinghan, would probably want to slap Chen Jinghan to death.

However, in this world, there aren't so many "what ifs".

Chen Jingcheng has confirmed that after the meeting on Monday, a ban on drinking alcohol by all public officials in the county during working days will be issued and implemented immediately.

He had already found the main location for the inspection team to carry out their tasks.

However, that will happen two days later.

It's almost 9 p.m. now.

Li Feitu has already returned to the provincial capital, which he hadn't been back to for over a month.

After returning to the provincial capital, Li Feitu went nowhere and went straight home.

After getting home and eating a couple of bites, Li Feitu waited.

Waiting for his father and uncle to return.

It wasn't until around 10 p.m. that Li Feitu finally saw his father, Li Zhiyuan, the deputy director of the Qingjiang Provincial People's Congress.

Along with Li Zhiyuan, Li Feitu's uncle, Li Zhixing, was also returning. He was the Party Secretary of Hancheng City in Qingjiang Province.

Upon seeing his father and uncle return, Li Feitu quickly greeted them.

Li Zhiyuan smiled, nodded, and said nothing.

Uncle Li Zhixing then spoke up, "Feitu, you specifically called me this time, asking me to come back today. Is there something important?"

Upon hearing this, Li Feitu's expression immediately turned serious, and he said in a deep voice, "Dad, Second Uncle, this time, there is indeed something very important I need to tell you."

"Perhaps it will affect our family's future!"

Upon hearing this, Li Zhiyuan and Li Zhixing exchanged a glance, both seeing the seriousness in each other's eyes.

Li Feitu is their son and nephew, someone they watched grow up and reach where he is today. No one knows Li Feitu's abilities and personality better than them.

Therefore, they knew very well that when Li Feitu said those words, it meant that the matter was really important!

"Let's go, let's talk in the study!"
