In May, the temperature in the spring city gradually warmed up, and on the shore of the blue waves of the Simingshan Provincial Veteran Cadres Recuperation Center, Xia Wang was concentrating on fishing.

Released from the busy state of work in the past, Xia Wang, who officially retired a few days ago, has adapted to the current leisurely and relaxed life.

On weekdays, he grows flowers and walks his dog is no different from an ordinary little old man, and only on weekends in a place like Simingshan Recuperation Center, he will occasionally pay attention to the current political news in Spring City and even northern Liaoning.

Since the beginning of this year, with the overall progress of the project in the central business district, Spring City has transitioned from the somewhat slow urban rhythm of the traditional industrial city in the past to a more frequent development rhythm.

In the first quarter of just three months, Chuncheng's GDP increased by 30 percent year-on-year, and such a miraculous figure immediately attracted the attention of high-level officials in northern Liaoning and even in China.

With such an almost legendary development speed, a small mining disaster with limited losses such as the Jinjiling mine disaster is a flaw in the eyes of many people.

It's just that in the view of Xia Wang, who has officially retired, as the old and difficult problems restricting the economic development of Spring City are gradually resolved, the more prosperous the development momentum of Spring City, I am afraid that the power game between the upper echelons will become more and more powerful.

Xia Wang, who had nothing to do, didn't have much thought about the power struggle in the upper echelons of Spring City, and he had already seen through some things at his age.

Even if he himself has just stepped down from the throne of the high-ranking and powerful Chuncheng City Party Committee, if he continues to point fingers without eyesight, he just doesn't want to make it difficult for those young and vigorous latecomers to dislike.

What's more, although the struggle between some powers in Spring City is fierce, it is basically still within a controllable range. In this case, Xia Wangcai, who is old and sophisticated, will not be stupid and just come forward without looking for trouble.

After officially retiring, Xia Wang returned the staff assigned to him to the Provincial People's Congress, and even came to Simingshan every week for recreation by car at his own expense.

Xia Wang, who has a tough personality, like many old people in their time, takes principles very seriously.

In his opinion, with his current treatment of retiring as a deputy provincial senior cadre, his current life is completely nourishing. Under such circumstances, if too much of the country's resources are occupied, it will be a waste of shame.

Today's weather was good, and the surface of the lake where Xia Wang's fishing rod stretched out soon was gently undulating.

"Eat hook!"

An unexpectedly clear voice suddenly sounded behind Xia Wang.

Fortunately, Xia Wang was experienced, his sharp eyes were fixed on the slightly rippling lake, and the fishing rod in his hand was thrown up violently, and a crucian carp the size of a palm was successfully caught.

"Secretary Xia is really old and strong, the level of this fishing is very good!"

Chen Youwei stepped forward with a smile to help catch the crucian carp and stuff it into the fish basket on the side.

Xia Wang blew his beard and glared, didn't give the former young partner in front of him a good look, and said coldly: "You kid is embarrassed, if it weren't for my steady hands, this fish would be scared away, right?!" ”

Squatting by the lake and washing his hands, Chen Youwei took out a cigarette with a smile and handed it over, and said with a smile: "Hehe, Secretary Xia's eyes were foggy at that moment, I thought you were in a fugue too empty, so I couldn't help but remind him." ”

Xia Wang glared at the other party again, looked at the other party's casual hippie smile, and finally smiled and shook his head and sighed: "You, you, now you can be regarded as revealing your true face without scruples, right?!" ”

"If the old secretary says so, then it is the real grievance of me, in front of you, the old secretary, I have always been respectful, and your orders are carried out without a little discount!" Chen Youwei hurriedly shouted.

Xia Wang stared at Chen Youwei with a smile for a while, and opened his mouth unexpectedly and said, "In that case, I will ask you to give up the position of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee vacated by Liu Fei, are you willing?" ”

Watching Xia Wang get up and pack up the fishing gear, Chen Youwei stepped forward and said with a smile: "The old secretary has said so, if I shirk it, it will naturally be to slap myself in the mouth." ”

Xia Wang was a little surprised, stared sideways at the eyes of the young man who made him admire, shook his head and smiled: "It's a little unexpected that you are so happy, but why do I always think that there is a conspiracy behind you that I don't know how to do!" ”

With his hands spread, Chen Youwei shrugged his shoulders and sighed: "If the old secretary says this, I am really embarrassed, I don't agree, I don't agree, isn't it embarrassing me?" ”

Familiar with the road took Chen Youwei to a small pavilion by the crystal clear lake, Xia Wang sat on the round stool with a big knife and a golden horse, picked up the teapot prepared in advance and brewed good tea for Chen Youwei.

Chen Youwei didn't mean to be polite, he ran all the way from Chuncheng City to this unique Siming Mountain Scenic Area, he was really a little thirsty.

"Tell me, why did you kid agree to my request so quickly?" Xia Wang handed over the brewed fragrant tea and looked at Chen Youwei with interest.

"What's so strange about that? It is completely public interest for me to pull Liu Fei down, and as for who will replace Liu Fei, the gap left by it is definitely not up to me. Chen Youwei took a small sip of fragrant tea, and was surprised and exclaimed: "Big red robe! The old secretary is okay, you can still have such high-quality tea! If there are any more, I'll bring some back later! ”

"The beauty of thought!"

Xia Wang glared angrily, this little guy who didn't treat himself as an outsider at all, scolded with a smile: "Don't interrupt, keep talking!" ”

Chen Youwei put down the teacup in his hand, glanced at Xia Wang, who was staring at him, sighed in his heart, shook his head and said: "This doesn't seem to have anything to say, I knocked Liu Fei to the ground, if you try your best to grab this seat, this will be too ugly, right?" ”

Xia Wang laughed coldly: "You are self-aware!" ”

"Hehe, it's not just that, Liu Fei, the secretary of the political and legal committee, has fallen, generally speaking, he is naturally looking for someone to make up for it from the political and legal mouth." Chen Youwei stared at Xia Wang with a smile and said: "Zhou Qiang is a good choice, but it's a pity that if he takes the position in this situation, I'm afraid some people will be unsteady and inevitably have other ideas." ”

Xia Wang stared at Chen Youwei, who had a relaxed expression, and nodded as if talking to himself: "This is the truth, Zhou Qiang has all the qualifications and abilities, if he is on it, I am afraid that some people will be really surprised." ”

"Yes, if I forcibly let Zhou Qiang take the position, I don't know what Secretary Guan will think, but I know that Mayor Xiao must be gloating and ready to watch a good show."

Chen Youwei's thick sword eyebrows were lightly raised, and he continued: "As for Secretary Jiang, he will definitely not be happy to see Zhou Qiang's ascendancy, since there are so many unfavorable factors, why should I do so many things that offend others and are not beneficial to myself!" ”

Xia Wang, who had always been cold-faced, finally squeezed out a smile on his face, shook his head and sighed: "You kid is a monkey spirit, and everything in the middle will be clear to you!" ”

Xia Wang's thoughts, Chen Youwei actually felt it most clearly, don't look at the former secretary of the Chuncheng City Party Committee who seems to have put down everything now, and he looks indifferent to everything. If Chen Youwei really intends to try to persuade the other party to agree to Zhou Qiang's ascension today, I am afraid it will be an unhappy situation.

At the beginning, he used ingenious means to completely subdue Zhou Qiang, a former general under Xia Wang, to say that Xia Wang himself really did not have a little mustard in his heart, it would be simply self-deception.

Maybe it was out of consideration for the overall situation, or maybe it was out of disappointment with the Dong family that was a little scattered at that time, Xia Wang didn't show too much dissatisfaction with this at the beginning.

With the development of the situation, the Dong family gradually formed a unified thought, and Zhou Qiang basically became Chen Youwei's most powerful confidant. At the beginning, Xia Wang may not have paid much attention to the problem, but now there will definitely be a fundamental turning point in his thinking.

No matter how much negative Xia Wang has about Zhou Qiang now, Chen Youwei has already calculated it clearly.

Since the current pattern of Spring City is not suitable for Zhou Qiang's promotion, as long as he survives the current stage, he will arrange the layout that is beneficial to himself first.

As for Zhou Qiang's arrangement, in Chen Youwei's opinion, it is simply not a problem, take 10,000 steps back, there are so many places in the capital, Shannan, Jiangnan and even southern Fujian Province, he Zhou Qiang is not a proper place to be placed casually? !

Of course, if Chen Youwei still hopes to have the opportunity, he will arrange a reliable person like Zhou Qiang in Spring City.

is really the so-called money to buy bones, Zhou Qiang's problem is properly solved, and those other people around him who are attached to Chen Youwei will naturally settle down and be full of expectations for their future.

"Okay, you kid don't go around in circles, I don't think you look like such an idle person!" Xia Wang's eyes flashed with curiosity, and he naturally wanted to figure out what kind of wishful thinking the other party had.

Chen Youwei put away his smiling face, took two deep puffs of cigarette, exhaled a thick smoke, and said in a solemn tone: "If you want Chuncheng to have a steady development, you must completely change the current senseless disputes in the leadership of Chuncheng. From this point of view, we still have a common goal, so let the Nan family stop at the Standing Committee of the Chuncheng Municipal Party Committee, this is my purpose! ”

Xia Wang bowed his head slightly, he naturally liked it.

"As for who will take over the vacated position of Liu Fei, since Zhou Qiang is not suitable, then we must find a person that everyone can agree with!"

Chen Youwei fiercely snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, pondered for a long time, and said lightly: "I propose that Qi Hong, secretary of the Xihua Municipal Party Committee, replace Liu Fei, the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee!" ”

"Qi Hong?!"

Xia Wang looked at the young man in front of him with a calm expression in surprise, and he was cheerful.

This Qi Hong, who has a very strong personality, was of course personally promoted, but Xia Wang also knows very well that this deputy department-level cadre with a strong middle position, if he had thrown himself in early, I am afraid that he would have been a leader at the level of the Standing Committee of the Chuncheng Municipal Party Committee by now.

If such a centrist is to take over the vacated position of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, presumably this is a suitable candidate that Jiang Zhenbang, including Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, can readily agree to.
