With only one month left before transfer, Yao Ze's office has become more and more lively. Whether it is Ye Zhaoguo, deputy secretary of the Party Committee, or Quan Hongtao, executive vice mayor, they all try their best to move forward. This can be said to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Whoever can win the position of Mayor Jiangping will have to show their magical powers across the sea.

The reason why Quan Hongtao dared to compete with Ye Zhaoguo for the position of mayor was because he climbed to the tough backstage of the provincial party secretary Nie Minghong a few years ago. Nie Minghong slowly lost control of Jiang Ping's leadership team due to Tang Shunyi's intervention. The top leader Zhang Shunyi and the second leader Yao Ze all leaned against Tang Shunyi. If Nie Minghong wants to regain control of Jiang Ping, he must re-choose his spokesperson in Jiang Ping.

Then it is obvious that Quan Hongtao is the person he chose.

On the other hand, Ye Zhaoguo was originally a practical person with no background, he was sleek and honest. After so many years of official games, he always dealt with everything with the same old style of being a cliché, so he still couldn't move as the deputy secretary. If you think about it carefully, he hasn't moved for almost ten years.

In fact, the most taboo thing in the officialdom is to be with officials. Although Ye Zhaoguo is good at doing practical things, he always chooses to remain silent or abstain from the internal struggles of the organization. Such people will naturally not be valued and important to the superiors.

Ye Zhaoguo, who is nearly fifty years old, feels that if he cannot advance to his political career this time, he will completely stop moving forward, so he wants to change his previous way of becoming an official and plans to join the camp of Secretary Nie Minghong or Governor Tang Shunyi.

However, Ye Zhaoguo is struggling again.

Until the news came out that Executive Vice Mayor Quan Hongtao had been valued by Nie Minghong, Ye Zhaoguo settled on the line of Tang Shunyi through Secretary Zhang Aimin.

Although the decision is in the province, Yao Ze also has a certain recommendation right, so there have been more people looking for Yao Ze in the past two days. There is no hope for the other deputy mayors. The current form is already very obvious. Mayor Jiangping City will only be born from Ye Zhaoguo or Quan Hongtao.

Quan Hongtao would not come to Yao Ze because the camp of the two was already very obvious. He chose to fight Zhang Aimin and Yao Ze alone, so he had to seize the position of mayor to gain a foothold in Jiangping. If the plan to compete for mayor fails, then he will face double suppression by the secretary and mayor.

In Yao Ze's office, Ye Zhaoguo gently blew the tea cup, then took a sip, and asked Yao Ze with a smile: "Mayor Yao, what did you say when you go to Governor Tang in the province this time?"

Yao Ze fiddled with a pot of cactus on the windowsill, watered it, sprinkled the kettle with confidence, clapped his hands, walked to Ye Zhaoguo with a smile, sat down next to him, picked up his own cup and drank a sip of tea, and then handed Ye Zhaoguo a cigarette, and then said leisurely: "Governor Tang has asked me, and I am the most suitable person to be the mayor in Jiangping City."

Ye Zhaoguo asked nervously: "How did you answer?"

Yao Ze sniffed with a smile, spitting out a layer of smoke from his mouth, and said with a smile: "Of course I recommend you. Quan Hongtao no longer considers the scope, and the other deputy mayors do not have the strength, so Governor Tang will consider you."

"But where Secretary Nie?" Ye Zhaoguo was a little worried that Tang Shunyi would not be able to fight Nie Minghong. After all, Tang Shunyi had only been the governor of North China for a short time, and the control of Huaiyuan was probably firmly controlled by Secretary Nie Minghong.

In fact, Tang Shunyi has been operating in Huaiyuan City for many years and his power cannot be underestimated. Although he has not been a governor for a long time, the number of members who supported him at the Standing Committee can reach half of the members. Qin Dayu, the executive vice governor who originally stood on Secretary Nie Minghong's side, was unable to openly help Nie Minghong because of Yao Ze's incident of secretly taking photos of him and his mistress.

"Don't worry, Secretary Ye, although Governor Tang has not served for a long time, his voice in the Standing Committee is actually less powerful than Nie Minghong. It can be said that the chances of you and Quan Hongtao as Mayor Jiangping are six or four points this time."

"Oh?" Ye Zhaoguo asked in confusion: "Who is six and who is four?"

Yao Ze smiled and said, "You are six and he is four."

Ye Zhaoguo said in surprise: "How do Mayor Yao say this?"

Yao Ze said: "After Governor Tang took office, he gave up Nie Minghong on a major project. This pill was given to Secretary Nie Minghong. Then he also had to remember this person who gave up the pill. Official rules need to know how to choose. Governor Tang gave up once and fulfilled Secretary Nie Minghong. Then this time, although Secretary Nie Minghong may not give up immediately, if the votes of the two at the executive meeting were equal, then Nie Minghong should make a concession."

Ye Zhaoguo said in surprise: "Mayor Yao, I understand what you mean. Oh, no wonder you were able to become mayor at a young age. Your understanding of the officialdom is actually much better than mine. I have been working hard all these years, but I have missed many good opportunities." Thinking of what I did before, Ye Zhaoguo sighed helplessly.

"Mayor Yao, I plan to go to the province tomorrow. What do you think?" Ye Zhaoguo continued.

Yao Ze shook his head and said, "I think it's better not to go there. Try to keep a low profile. You don't have to worry about the province. Governor Tang will help you do everything. You just need to show a normal mentality."

Ye Zhaoguo smiled bitterly and said, "I want to show a normal mentality, but I don't have that kind of ideological awareness."

"Quan Hongtao has been running to the province very frequently during this period." Ye Zhaoguo was still a little worried.

Yao Ze smiled and stuffed the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray, then raised his legs and shook his head, "Secretary Ye, you are too unconfident. Remember, this mayor must be yours. Don't worry about those useless things. Just prepare yourself well. How to be the mayor of Jiangping and develop Jiangping in a good direction."

"Sure, then I'll listen to Mayor Yao, but if you have time, please help me talk in front of Governor Tang." Ye Zhaoguo said with a smile.

Yao Ze nodded bitterly, then looked at his watch. It was almost time to get off work. Ye Zhaoguo stood up and smiled and said, "Mayor Yao, go to my place to have a few drinks?"

Yao Ze smiled and waved his hand and said, "Forget it, drinking is a mistake. I have been having a lot of things recently. I won't get drunk anymore." I remembered that I was drunk a few days ago and at the same time, I took away the beautiful mother and daughter Li Meilian and Lin Ruixin, and the situation was inexhaustible. I felt a headache.

"Then next time, if I, Old Ye, are really lucky to become mayor, I will definitely repay Governor Tang and Mayor Yao." Ye Zhaoguo chatted with Yao Ze again and then said goodbye and left Yao Ze's office.

Li Meilian has returned to Jiangping from Yanjing. After returning, she neither answered Yao Ze's phone call nor text messages. Yao Ze planned to secretly go to her house to block her after get off work.

Lin Ruixin is like his mother. No matter how Yao Ze calls, she will ignore text messages.

...

"Hey, something really is going to happen in the steel plant?"

"Yes, can this news be fake? My uncle and aunt are the director there. She told me this in person, and it is impossible to be wrong."

"There's a good show now..."

After get off work, when Yao Ze just walked to the entrance of the government office building, he saw several department clerks gathered in the aisle outside and talking about something. Because they were close and the clerks were talking excitedly, they ignored Yao Ze who was walking towards them.

"What do you say?" Yao Ze stood beside several clerks with a smile and asked if something happened.

The young clerk who was talking excitedly stopped seeing Yao Ze, and his face turned pale and stuttered: "Yao...Mayor Yao..."

Yao Ze smiled and nodded and said, "Don't be nervous, I'm very interested in the topic you are talking about. Who can tell me?"

"Mayor Yao, we didn't say anything, just chat." The clerk who was so excited that he just said responded with a ugly expression.

Yao Ze raised his face slightly, his voice a little heavier: "Tell the truth."

Yao Ze's aura and his serious expression suddenly scared the clerk and said everything he knew without hesitation.

Yao Ze roughly learned some of the situation from the intermittent words of the clerk. The day before yesterday, the director of Jiangping Second Automobile Steel Plant and the deputy director had a physical collision due to discord in interests. It may be that the deputy director suffered a loss and said in anger that he wanted to make the factory director smelly. The roughly means that he had some unknown secrets of the director of the steel plant in his hands, and these secrets were naturally related to rumors within the steel plant.

According to rumors, the director of the steel factory and the wife of the workshop director have had an affair for many years and are extremely unconventional. The deputy director seems to have obtained evidence of the two affair and is preparing to make the director bad. Only some leadership employees in the steel factory know about this matter for the time being, and the news has not been revealed yet.

The clerk also learned about this from his uncle and aunt.

"Do you know what the consequences of spreading these news blindly?" Yao Ze looked at him with a smile after hearing the young clerk's words.

The young clerk was frightened by Yao Ze's words, and began to sweat constantly, his face pale and ugly.

Yao Ze instructed the three clerks: "Stop this matter from you, don't spread it anymore. If it is spread, you can't afford the serious consequences of the matter."

"Yes, Mayor Yao, we promise not to mention this matter again." The three clerks expressed their opinions.

Yao Ze nodded and said, "You guys go."

The three of them quickly left this place of right and wrong as if they were amnesty.

Steel plants are the top priority of Jiangping's economy. The annual output value of steel can reach 5 million tons. For a low-level city, its terrifying data can be believed to be of importance to Jiangping's economy. If there are major problems with the internal management of the steel plant and the efficiency of the steel plant will decrease, the losses can be imagined.

Since Yao Ze is still the mayor of Jiangping City, he must take charge of this matter.

Yao Ze is not sure what the clerk said. He plans to take time to investigate Erqian Steel Plant in the next few days. If this is true, he must stabilize the internal management's dangerous situation.

Putting aside this issue for the time being, Yao Ze drove towards Li Meilian's house in a car, intending to sigh to Li Meilian for the last time-
