Chapter 2022 Where Dreams Take Off

When Xie Zhiguo heard this, he was visibly stunned.

"Are you determined to do this?" Xie Zhiguo asked.

"Yes!" Qin Feng nodded.

"How did you meet Vice Governor Qi?"

"Minister Zhao made the appointment for me."

Xie Zhiguo nodded, and then said: "Although I promised you last time, but after thinking about it, I still don't want you to do this."

"When we were in Shannan, I asked you to go to Guanshan Town to deal with the Baishan Coal Mine. I almost got you killed, and I've always blamed myself for this. So now, I don't want you to do something as dangerous again."

Qin Feng was somewhat moved by Xie Zhiguo's words, but although he was moved, he was still very persistent about this matter.

"Secretary Xie, if there is a better solution, I don't want to do this either."

"Your method can indeed solve the problem, but as I just said, it is not worth exchanging a district party secretary for it. The most important thing is that this will not solve the fundamental problem."

"Think about it, even if Liu Xiaoping compromises with you for this position, the shantytown reconstruction project is still here, and he can still make a fuss about it whenever he wants."

"Even if he doesn't do anything about the slum reconstruction, he can still cause trouble for you in other matters. The key is that he has the means to check and balance you, and you don't have the power to control him."

"And I actually did this for two reasons. The first was to solve the problem of slum reconstruction."

"The second one is for Wang Jiahao. To solve the Xiquan problem, Wang Jiahao is the first person to be solved. The investigation of Zhongyang Chemical Factory may not necessarily involve Liu Xiaoping, but Wang Jiahao cannot be separated from it. If Wang Jiahao is not involved in the murder case at the railway station, he must be involved. In addition, I took Zhang Jun to meet with Vice Governor Qi, and I have your support here, so I am very confident that Wang Jiahao can be dismissed."

Xie Zhiguo leaned back in his chair, thought for a moment, and then nodded silently.

"Since I promised you last time, I shouldn't go back on my word, but I'm still worried about your safety."

"Since you still insist and have already met with Vice Governor Qi and invited Minister Zhao to come out, I can only agree to you. But you must also promise me that you must pay attention to your own safety. You are now the deputy mayor, but you are no longer the township party secretary of Guanshan Town."

Qin Feng actually had a reason that he had not told Xie Zhiguo. If he solved this problem according to Xie Zhiguo's idea, it would indeed be much safer than Qin Feng's. However, it would take a long time. The situation in Yian County meant that Qin Feng could not wait that long. This was also the reason why Qin Feng insisted on doing so.

After Qin Feng came out of Xie Zhiguo's study, he took Lu Zian to say goodbye. Just as Qin Feng took Lu Zian downstairs, Xie Simin also came downstairs with a bag on her back and called Qin Feng.

"Why did you come down too?" Qin Feng asked with a smile.

"Qin Feng, what do you mean? Who told you to do this? Are you jealous of me?" Xie Simin was so angry that she finally found a chance to vent on Qin Feng.

"What's wrong with me? I told you, I happened to be taking Lu Zian to the city to do some work today, so I just asked him to come over for dinner. What are you thinking? Do you think I want to intervene in the matter between you two?"

"Bullshit, don't I know what you are thinking? I will forgive you this time, but you must shut your mouth, otherwise I will never let you go." Xie Simin warned Qin Feng.

Qin Feng was already accustomed to Xie Simin's warnings.

"How long are you going to keep it a secret?" Qin Feng asked.

"Listen, both of you. As your leader and your eldest brother, I have to tell you that if you two are planning to get married, then you should tell your parents openly, be together openly, and work towards the goal of getting married."

"If you two are still hesitating about whether to be together, then I advise you to separate as soon as possible, because you are not so determined to be together now, and it will be even more impossible to live together in different places in the future. The longer you delay, the more painful it will be. This can be regarded as advice from someone who has experienced it."

"Of course, this is your private matter. I am just offering a suggestion. I will not ask about the specifics of how to proceed, nor will I interfere. Today I am just fulfilling my responsibilities as a brother."

"Lu Zian, please take her back. I'm leaving first." Qin Feng said and got into Wang Jun's car and left. Lu Zian's driver was already waiting downstairs.

……

Two days later, Qin Feng set off for Dongyang again.

The reason why he went to Dongyang again was because Hong Yue called him every day and forced him to do so.

Hong Yue called Qin Feng every day to urge him to go to Dongyang to get a divorce.

Today, Qin Feng understood how eager Hong Yue was to get a divorce, and Qin Feng was also tired. The most important thing was that he knew there was no point in continuing this marriage.

Qin Feng knew what his trip to Dongyang meant, so he had been hesitating and procrastinating. He was just annoyed by Hong Yue's urging calls every day. He also knew that this matter had to be resolved sooner or later, so it would be better to resolve it earlier so that everyone would be relieved.

Qin Feng rushed to Dongyang overnight after getting off work that day, but after arriving in Dongyang, Qin Feng's first stop was Bishan Township.

Last time, Mr. Zhao’s matter was solved thanks to Li Dejun’s help. Qin Feng really couldn’t spare the time last time in Dongyang, and he never came to thank Li Dejun. So this time when he returned to Dongyang, Qin Feng decided to meet Li Dejun and say thank you in person.

Of course, Qin Feng also wanted to meet Li Dejun and other old friends of Bishan. Li Dejun could be regarded as his enlightenment teacher in the officialdom. Many of his initial understandings of the officialdom came from Li Dejun. Although Li Dejun’s so-called "teachings" now seemed too shallow to Qin Feng, Li Dejun was never considered an "official" from the beginning to the end.

According to the ancient classification of officials, the lowest-ranking official was the county magistrate, which was equivalent to the current county head. In other words, those below the county magistrate were not officials, but only clerks, that is, clerks.

Originally, Qin Feng planned to have dinner at Li Dejun's house and invite several old friends from Bishan.

But after Wang Jun called Wang Manzi, Wang Manzi insisted that Qin Feng go to his house for dinner. Finally, Qin Feng had no choice but to call Li Dejun and ask him to come to Niujiaoshan Village.

Wang Jun drove directly to Niujiao Mountain.

Qin Feng couldn't remember how long it had been since he last came here. He had deep feelings for this place.

Coming from Bishan Township all the way to Niujiaoshan Village, this place has changed a lot compared to the past. The so-called industrial zone built by Qin Feng in Bishan Township has grown to a certain scale. Along the way, the mountains are full of orange trees, and the road into the village that Qin Feng almost lost his life to build is now paved with asphalt. I don't know when a lot of small villas have appeared in the village. Such houses were completely unbelievable before.

Qin Feng was very pleased. This was where his dream began and also where his dream took off.
