As a result, the director of the Education Ministry, Yin Li, and the head of the Ministry of Development and Reform, who had always had a good reputation, were written into Wu Jingzhong’s promotion report.

Sea District belonged to the city directly under the executive hall, so the governor and deputy governor of Sea District were directly appointed by them. However, the executive hall was far away in Emperor District and did not have an in-depth understanding of the deputy positions in each city they were responsible for. Therefore, the executive hall was usually only responsible for approving people to be put into certain positions, while the people were nominated by those in main positions. As long as it was not an obviously bad choice, the executive hall would usually approve these people.

The Shi family had finally gained a basic grasp of the situation in Sea District after much difficulty. Now that Lan Weisong had fallen, they temporarily had no grasp on a slice of the pie as big as Sea District.

Originally, when Shi Maowen joined the executive hall, it was just the two of them. He had already secretly made an appointment with Wu Jingzhong to treat him to dinner in the evening to make amends for his treatment. Wu Jingzhong very happily agreed to it, so Shi Maowen felt like he was on the right track.

Shi Maowen deliberately did not eat lunch in the afternoon. He wanted to act as if he had forgotten to eat and sleep because of work. He wanted to use his own hard work to show everyone that the Shi family was still doing fine, or at least, that he was.

Who knew that when he left the interrogation room in the afternoon and ran over to show concern for Wu Jingzhong, wanting to get close to him so that he could speak to him at night, he realized that Wu Jingzhong had already typed up his recommendation report for the job vacancies that very morning.

Wu Jingzhong was not in the executive hall, but if he typed up a report, as long as the 12th official agreed and made a recommendation to the president, the matter would be settled.

The president’s treatment of the 12th official was obviously more favorable than to the 13th. Usually, even if Shi Maowen was around and many of the vice presidents were on his side, the president would more often adopt the 12th official’s opinions and recommendations… not to mention when Shi Maowen was not around.

Shi Maowen’s expression was very ugly.

He had wanted to parachute in another lieutenant governor from the executive hall. Even if he was ranked at the bottom and had the lowest rank, there would at least be someone to read his votes for him during the presidential election in the future.

Who could have guessed that Wu Jingzhong could be so ruthless? In just one morning, he had already typed up the report.

After Shi Maowen found out, he immediately called a vice president who had a very good relationship with the Shi family. However, there was no signal on his cell phone, so the call did not go through.

Thinking that today was Wednesday, which was when the executive hall’s biggest weekly meeting would be held, and that the issue of the job vacancies would be resolved at this meeting, Shi Maowen was as anxious as an ant in a hot pot. He immediately called the vice president’s secretary.

He was told the meeting had already started a long time ago, and that the issue of transferring someone to the positions had been the first thing on the agenda. Even if he went to look for the vice president now, it would be useless.

Shi Maowen slumped in his seat. The anger and hatred in his heart threatened to overflow.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. Shi Maowen filed away the malicious look in his eyes and called out for them to come in. A secretary pushed the door open and came in.

The secretary was holding a very beautiful fruit plate. After seeing Shi Maowen, he said very respectfully, “Officer Shi, our governor asked me to deliver this fruit to you. He asked me to inform you that if you need anything, you can just tell him.”

Tell him?

What could Shi Moawen possibly tell him? The governor had already done the most important thing in the world in advance, so what else could he tell him?

How detestable!

Shi Maowen said with a smile, “Governor Wu is too polite. He even specially asked someone to prepare me fruit.”
