Chapter 2904 The Standing Committee issues an order

Qin Feng would naturally not let this opportunity slip by. If he could get Feng Changjun to take over as executive vice mayor, then he would naturally seize the opportunity to let Jiang Yunpeng succeed Feng Changjun.

This matter is actually not a big deal, because Jiang Yunpeng should have been the deputy mayor in the first place. As long as Jiang Yunpeng's position as director of the Public Security Bureau is not changed, the deputy mayor position should be his sooner or later. Therefore, Jiang Longjun did not have any major objections to this matter.

“Okay, I agree with that too, and I also guarantee that I will actively strive to get these two plans approved by the relevant leaders of the Provincial Party Committee. With the opinions of Secretary Zhao and Minister Pang, there should be almost no problem.” Jiang Longjun nodded.

"Then I'll have to trouble Secretary Jiang." Qin Feng nodded.

"Shouldn't we also recommend a successor for Ding Wenbo?" Jiang Longjun then asked.

Qin Feng immediately understood what Jiang Longjun meant when he asked that question: Jiang Longjun had his eye on the position.

"Who does Secretary Jiang think is more suitable?"

"How is Comrade Yuanjie?" Jiang Longjun asked.

Jiang Longjun was referring to Cao Yuanjie, the Party Secretary of Ping Shun City, who is one of Jiang Longjun's staunch confidants.

“Originally, I was going to recommend Comrade Yuan Jie to take over as the executive vice mayor, but the mayor suggested Feng Changjun, which I think makes sense,” Jiang Longjun continued.

Qin Feng laughed. Jiang Longjun was indeed the kind of person who would take every advantage of others. He wouldn't let Qin Feng take all the benefits, and he also wouldn't leave his people in the municipal government.

Qin Feng knew that Jiang Longjun was making a deal with him; if Jiang Longjun supported Feng Changjun's promotion to the Standing Committee, Qin Feng would have to support Cao Yuanjie's promotion to vice mayor.

Jiang Longjun's request disrupted Qin Feng's original plans. He had originally intended to take the position vacated by Ding Wenbo, but Jiang Longjun, being cunning and shrewd, saw through his thoughts and spoke up in advance.

Since Jiang Longjun brought it up in advance, it means that Jiang Longjun is unlikely to give this position to Qin Feng, and there is no point in continuing to fight for it.

"Comrade Cao Yuanjie's abilities are evident to all, and I support him. However... if Comrade Cao Yuanjie is transferred to work in the municipal government, then the position of Party Secretary of Yuanshun City should also be considered," Qin Feng said slowly.

Jiang Longjun's eyelids twitched, and he asked, "Which comrade do you think is suitable?"

"I don't think we need to consider this too much. With Comrade Cao Yuanjie leaving office, it's natural for Comrade Xie Kang to take over," Qin Feng said.

“Okay, that makes sense.” Jiang Longjun nodded.

"I think we should discuss the position of mayor of Pingshun City with Comrade Zeyan again and hear his opinion," Qin Feng added.

Qin Feng's words were essentially saying that we've already divided the spoils between the two of us, so let's leave the remaining spot for Tang Zeyan. Otherwise, Tang Zeyan won't accept it without getting any benefits, and we can't break the rules.

Jiang Longjun clearly lacked interest in this matter. He nodded and said, "Okay, then let's handle this matter this way. As I said before, there shouldn't be any major problems with the Standing Committee. If you and I both go and make some arrangements with the provincial authorities, there shouldn't be any major issues either."

“But you have to understand, the most important thing for us right now is not this personnel issue, but the fact that Shao Hongli is dead,” Jiang Longjun reminded Qin Feng.

"Don't worry, Secretary. As long as the Standing Committee gives the order, neither Feng Changjun nor Jiang Yunpeng will dare to disobey. Secretary Zhao from the province will also speak up for Shazhou. Shao Hongli's matter will definitely be resolved properly." Qin Feng knew what Jiang Longjun wanted to hear.

After leaving Shao Hongli's place, Qin Feng went straight to Tang Zeyan's office without saying goodbye.

Qin Feng sat in Tang Zeyan's office for about twenty minutes, reiterating the "deal" he and Jiang Longjun had just agreed upon.

Qin Feng went to see Tang Zeyan primarily to discuss matters with him. As the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, he would certainly need to consult Tang Zeyan beforehand on matters that needed to be discussed at the Standing Committee meeting. Although Jiang Longjun had agreed, which meant the matter was practically settled, Qin Feng still needed to respect Tang Zeyan's wishes.

Secondly, it was also to finish the "business" with Tang Zeyan. After all, Qin Feng had reserved the position of mayor of Ping Shun City for Tang Zeyan. Although Qin Feng and Jiang Longjun had divided up the big pieces of the pie, and Tang Zeyan had only gotten a scrap, given Tang Zeyan's strength and status, it was Qin Feng who had specially reserved this scrap for him.

Qin Feng reserved the position of mayor of Ping Shun City for Tang Zeyan, so Tang Zeyan had to fully support Qin Feng on several other matters. As long as Jiang Longjun, Qin Feng and Tang Zeyan were of one mind, the matter would be settled in Shazhou.

Of course, Qin Feng also had the idea of ​​currying favor with Tang Zeyan.

When Qin Feng came down from the municipal party committee building, he found that Feng Changjun's car was still parked downstairs, right behind his car.

When Qin Feng got out of the car, Feng Changjun's car door also opened, and Feng Changjun got out of the car and walked towards Qin Feng.

"Mayor, are you done with your work?"

"Why are you still here?" Qin Feng asked curiously.

Feng Changjun smiled but didn't say anything.

Seeing Feng Changjun's smile, Qin Feng understood what was going on and said to Feng Changjun, "Get in my car!"

"How did your talk with Jiang Longjun go?" Feng Changjun asked Qin Feng as the two sat in the back seat of the car.

"Are you feeling uneasy about openly going against Jiang Longjun today? Are you afraid he'll retaliate against you? Make things difficult for you?" Qin Feng asked Feng Changjun with a smile.

Feng Changjun smiled awkwardly and nodded, not denying it: "Jiang Longjun seems peaceful on the surface, but he is actually very petty and treacherous. Shao Hongli is a real villain, but he is a hypocrite. Sometimes a hypocrite is more terrifying than a real villain."

Feng Changjun's assessment of Jiang Longjun was very apt, and Qin Feng wholeheartedly agreed.

Qin Feng understood Feng Changjun's concerns. In the Shazhou political arena, apart from Shao Hongli, who was supported by the Yang family, no one dared to defy Jiang Longjun. Jiang Longjun was like a local emperor, a fact that was ingrained in the bones of everyone in the Shazhou officialdom.

"I had a very pleasant conversation with Jiang Longjun. Of course, it had to be a pleasant conversation; he had no other choice," Qin Feng said with a smile.

Feng Changjun paused for a moment, then understood what Qin Feng meant and nodded.

"Regarding this matter, although Jiang Longjun was not very satisfied, he ultimately agreed to convene an emergency Standing Committee meeting tomorrow to specifically study the death of Shao Hongli and the investigation of Ding Wenbo. At that time, the Standing Committee will study and make a decision, ordering the Public Security Bureau to immediately close the case based on the existing evidence and hand it over to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection for further investigation," Qin Feng said.

"That's great. As long as there's an order from the Standing Committee, if something really goes wrong, the responsibility won't fall on me or the Public Security Bureau." Feng Changjun nodded.

"No, it's not about taking responsibility, Comrade Changjun. I think Jiang Longjun made a very good point earlier. He said that those of you in this position must bear the responsibilities that come with it, and I think that's true. But taking responsibility doesn't mean taking the blame for others." Qin Feng corrected Feng Changjun's words, while also reminding him.
