County Party Secretary Gao Zhenshan sat in the off-road vehicle, feeling the bumpy ride, and his mood was not good. Thinking about the report from Deputy County Magistrate Guan Yogui, he felt a strong sense of disgust. What was going on in Chunzhu Township? Just when they had dealt with the incident where a group of people died, now there was almost another tragedy where dozens of students were nearly crushed by their dormitory. If such an incident had really happened, his position as County Party Secretary would be at risk!

The County Magistrate was attending a meeting in another county, so he had to go to Chunzhu Township first.

He rubbed his temples, thinking about the county's affairs and feeling that the leadership in Chunzhu Township needed a thorough adjustment.

Who should take on the role of Party Secretary?

Let's see!

Pang Hui, the Organization Minister in the car, was one of Gao Zhenshan's people. Sitting next to Gao Zhenshan, he secretly observed his expression and understood that the leadership in Chunzhu Township should be adjusted.

As the car was about to enter the township, Gao Zhenshan, who had been looking into the distance, suddenly sat up straight and looked at an off-road vehicle that had just passed them.

Who in Caohai County dared to overtake the Party Secretary's car?

Seeing Gao Zhenshan's expression, everyone in the car became tense.

Gao Zhenshan wasn't too bothered by the overtaking, but he was concerned about the license plate of the car.

Frequently traveling to the provincial and municipal levels, Gao Zhenshan was very sensitive to license plates.

The car was driving fast and had already entered the township, but Gao Zhenshan felt uneasy, recognizing the provincial government's license plate!

At Gao Zhenshan's level, he was extremely sensitive to any matter. Although the car might just be passing through, who could say for sure that it wasn't coming to his county to do something?

Thinking about the license plate, Gao Zhenshan, who had some knowledge of the provincial government's plates, was puzzled. Why was a provincial government car in Chunzhu Township? Had Chunzhu Township caught the attention of the provincial government?

Seeing the car turn a corner, Gao Zhenshan leaned back in his seat again.

The car headed towards the township government, and Gao Zhenshan's unease grew stronger.

Chunzhu Township didn't have any national highways, so the car must have entered the township. What was it doing there?

At this moment, Ye Zetao had received a call from the middle-aged man who had accompanied him during the last grave cleaning. He had already come out to greet them.

Ye Zetao was a good friend, and since he had promised to help the man named Zheng build the grave, he naturally wanted to give him a proper welcome.

Walking to the roadside in front of the township government, he saw the off-road vehicle that had come last time parked by the side of the road.

The strong man was already standing by the car. Seeing Ye Zetao approach, he smiled and said, "Mr. Zheng was in a hurry and forgot to give you the money. He also asked me to bring you the inscription for the tombstone. Please take it!" He then handed a leather bag to Ye Zetao.

Hearing that it was to deliver the money, Ye Zetao smiled and said, "It won't cost much. I can just get some villagers to help!"

Although he said this, he still took the bag.

"Inside is ten thousand yuan, and Mr. Zheng also wrote the content for the tombstone. Please do your best. Old Ji asked me to thank you on his behalf."

This sounded like an order, and although Ye Zetao felt a bit unhappy, he still nodded with a smile.

Clasping the bag under his arm, Ye Zetao smiled and said, "Please tell Mr. Zheng not to worry. I'll do my best. I'll keep track of the expenses and return any excess."

"My name is Ning Jun, and my contact information is inside!" The man smiled at Ye Zetao, got into the car, and quickly drove away.

Seeing the man leave without stopping, Ye Zetao shook his head, holding the small bag.

Neither of them noticed that Gao Zhenshan's car had already arrived. From a distance, Gao Zhenshan saw Ning Jun hand a black bag to Ye Zetao, and his gaze focused on Ye Zetao.

This time, Gao Zhenshan's arrival was not announced to the township, so the township leaders were unaware of his presence.

As the car got closer, Ning Jun had already started his car.

Gao Zhenshan noted Ye Zetao's appearance and watched Ning Jun's car drive away.

Pang Hui, the Organization Minister in the off-road vehicle, also saw Ning Jun hand the bag to Ye Zetao and recognized the license plate of Ning Jun's off-road vehicle. He was equally shocked that a provincial government car was in Chunzhu Township. This was no small matter!

Looking at Gao Zhenshan, who was still watching the off-road vehicle leave, Pang Hui felt that this matter needed to be thoroughly investigated.

Pang Hui also noted Ye Zetao's appearance.

At this moment, Ye Zetao also looked up and saw the county's off-road vehicle. Having just come from the school, he couldn't distinguish between provincial and county license plates. He only saw Deputy Secretary Chang Mingwei running out to greet them.

Seeing Chang Mingwei running out, Ye Zetao was startled and hurriedly ran over with the black bag under his arm.

The sudden arrival of the County Party Secretary frightened the township leaders, and soon, leaders of all sizes emerged from various places.

"Secretary, you're here!" Chang Mingwei tightly held Gao Zhenshan's hand.

With a serious expression, Gao Zhenshan asked, "How is the situation at the school?"

"I'm organizing the reconstruction work!" Although he hadn't actually done anything at the school, Chang Mingwei said this confidently.

Without entering the township government, Gao Zhenshan nodded and said, "Let's go directly to the middle school."

Everyone got out of the car, and under the lead of Chang Mingwei, they walked towards the middle school in a group.

As they passed Ye Zetao, Gao Zhenshan and Pang Hui both glanced at him.

Chang Mingwei, who had been secretly observing Gao Zhenshan's expression, quickly said, "This is a new university graduate in the township, Ye Zetao!"

Startled, Gao Zhenshan reached out to shake Ye Zetao's hand and asked, "Is this the Ye Zetao who noticed the danger in the dormitory and notified the school to move the students?"

Chang Mingwei hurriedly smiled and said, "Yes, it's him. If not for him, a major incident might have occurred!"

Hearing this, Gao Zhenshan, who had been holding Ye Zetao's hand with one hand, reached out his other hand and firmly shook Ye Zetao's hand, causing the black bag under Ye Zetao's arm to fall to the ground.

Seeing the black bag and Gao Zhenshan's firm grip, Ye Zetao was unsure whether to pick up the bag or continue shaking hands.

At this moment, something surprising happened. Organization Minister Pang Hui bent down to pick up Ye Zetao's black bag and handed it to him with a smile.

Gao Zhenshan shook Ye Zetao's hand vigorously and patted his shoulder, saying, "I represent the county party committee to thank you!"

This incident left the township leaders with complex expressions, and their eyes were filled with various emotions.

"This damn Ye Zetao has caught the County Party Secretary's attention!"

Seeing Ye Zetao take the black bag, Gao Zhenshan smiled and said, "Little Ye, let's go to the school together."

Pang Hui also came over and patted Ye Zetao's shoulder, saying, "Little Ye, you're doing well!"

Surrounded by the leaders, Ye Zetao felt a bitter smile. He knew this would cause the township leaders to speculate.

He never expected that what started as a plan to watch a pornographic movie with the teachers would end up like this!

Ye Zetao felt as if he were in a dream.

At this moment, Organization Minister Pang Hui was secretly thinking. After picking up the black bag, he had secretly felt its contents and realized it contained a stack of money, about ten thousand yuan.

The black bag contained over ten thousand yuan!

How strange!

Pang Hui trusted his sense of touch and was sure it was money.

Looking at Ye Zetao, Pang Hui thought, "Could it be that this guy's family is worried he lacks money and sent it specially?"

If it was sent specially, this was no ordinary matter!

He never expected that there was a powerful figure hidden in the county!

Considering the secretive nature of the delivery, Pang Hui didn't dare to ask easily.

Ye Zetao, unaware of these thoughts, walked with the leaders to the school, holding the black bag.

"Where is Little Ye's home?" Gao Zhenshan asked as they walked.

At this moment, Niu Changsheng, the director of the Party and Government Office, felt this was a good opportunity to speak directly to the County Party Secretary. He quickly said, "Secretary Gao, Comrade Ye Zetao is from our county. He is a university graduate and a Party member. His home is..."

Niu Changsheng was very familiar with Ye Zetao's family background and quickly introduced him in detail.

"Oh, good, good. No wonder he could be the first to rush to the front line. The perspective of a Party member is different. Little Ye is doing well!" Gao Zhenshan said.

After listening to Niu Changsheng's introduction, Gao Zhenshan and Pang Hui, who had been suspicious of Ye Zetao, became even more puzzled.

What was going on? How could it be such a situation?

Neither Gao Zhenshan nor Pang Hui had expected this.

Looking at Ye Zetao, who had regained his composure and was smiling calmly, Gao Zhenshan shook his head, thinking, "It can't be that simple."

Pang Hui was even more skeptical. If Ye Zetao had only this background, how could he have connections with the provincial government?

This guy can't be underestimated!

It must be said that officials have a tendency to overcomplicate matters.

Gao Zhenshan thought even more. If Ye Zetao really had strong provincial connections, he might be able to use him to build a relationship. Better to believe it!

Is he here to镀金 (gain experience)?

Or secretly to镀金 (gain experience)?

Gao Zhenshan had already made up his mind.

Looking at Pang Hui, who was familiar with Gao Zhenshan's expressions, he nodded slightly.

The group soon arrived at the middle school.

Seeing the collapsed dormitory, Gao Zhenshan's face showed a heavy expression. He looked at it with a serious face, then entered the classroom to visit the students who had been moved there. He patted a student's head and said, "Children are our hope. We must do everything possible to restore the collapsed school buildings. The county will allocate funds for the reconstruction. Comrades, we must prioritize education and ensure the well-being of the children..." Gao Zhenshan spoke with deep emotion.

After speaking for a while, Gao Zhenshan looked at Ye Zetao in the crowd and said loudly, "Comrade Ye Zetao faced danger and saved dozens of children's lives. His actions are truly touching. The propaganda department should publicize this. Our Party needs many such excellent Party members, and we must cultivate such outstanding comrades!"

Ye Zetao looked at Gao Zhenshan in surprise, never expecting such high praise.

Not only Ye Zetao, but none of the township leaders had expected this, and they all looked at Ye Zetao with complex expressions.
