In the evening, Song Guanchao attended the dinner alone.
It was still at the upscale Xiangshan Lake Clubhouse.
Song Guanchao vaguely rembered that the first ti Jiang Yuan invited him was here.
Back then, he was just a small-ti secretary.
Of course, even now, he is rely a district mayor.
Even if he were promoted to Vice Mayor, there would still be a significant gap between him and Jiang Yuan.
But Song Guanchao didn't see it that way.
He felt that he and Jiang Yuan were already on equal ground.
The current Jiang Yuan is no longer the actual head of the City Governnt.
He lost four core departnts and secretly colluded with Secretary Tian, using Qin Yuejin as a weapon to trap Qu Xiangru.
His current situation is very dire and no better than Zheng Bihui's.
Inside the private room.
Jiang Yuan leaned on the sofa, the cigar in his hand slowly burning, a wisp of blue smoke calmly rising to the sky.
This ti, his loss was quite miserable.
Not only did Qin Yuejin survive, but even Luo Sanming also fell.
He already saw Song Guanchao in a high regard but realized he had still underestimated him.
This guy is a very tricky character.
He even suspected that the money and gold he had previously sent to him had already been handed over to the Disciplinary Committee.
Thankfully, he had two accompanying businessn deliver them and did not show up personally.
Even if he handed it over to the Disciplinary Committee, it would not affect him.
Tonight's dinner invitation did not have any other purpose except to cultivate so rapport with him.
He knew well that it was best not to offend soone like Song Guanchao.
Given his current situation, once offended, he may not withstand his revenge.
Knock, knock.
The sound of knocking was heard, and the waiter pushed open the private room door.
Stepping on the comfortable carpet, Song Guanchao walked up, smiling, and extended his right hand, "Mayor Jiang."
"Xiao Song is here."
Jiang Yuan got up, voluntarily took two steps forward, and shook his hand firmly.
Don't underestimate these two steps.
If it were other district mayors or vice mayors, he wouldn't even budge, just raise his hand at most.
But for Song Guanchao, he not only stood up but also took the initiative to greet him.
This showed his respect for Song Guanchao, giving him ample face.
"Try it."
Jiang Yuan smiled and handed over a cigar.
Song Guanchao evenly lit it up and took a puff, "Very llow."
Song Guanchao usually disliked beating around the bush, but this ti, he did not rush into the main topic.
"Yesterday, I attended a eting at the City Committee."
Jiang Yuan said, "The Youth Class is about to start, and the province has given our city two spots, one at the City Committee, and another allocated to the City Governnt."
Song Guanchao's eyes subtly moved, understanding the matter at hand.
"Mayor Zheng intends to let handle this quota."
"After thinking it over, I still feel Xiao Song is the most suitable."
"What do you think, Xiao Song?"
Song Guanchao understood that he was using the Youth Class quota to show goodwill.
Indeed, the City Governnt quota is under his control, but given his current situation, he can only give it to Song Guanchao.
This is essentially offering help without expecting anything in return.
Nonetheless, since he is willing to show goodwill, Song Guanchao couldn't just dismiss the gesture abruptly.
He nodded with a smile, "Of course, I'd like to go, but having just beco the district mayor, I fear giving this quota might lead to gossip, putting Mayor Jiang in a difficult position."
Mayor Jiang said, "To say who is most qualified over at the City Governnt, it would undoubtedly be you. Picking anyone else would be hard to convince people."
"Since you have no objections, then it's settled. Tomorrow, I'll submit your na."
"Thank you, Mayor Jiang."
"No need for thanks, too formal."
Jiang Yuan patted his arm, "Co, let's eat."
During the al, he subtly brought up Qu Xiangru, Wu Qiangwei, and Qin Yuejin.
Throughout the conversation, he expressed a willingness not to oppose Qu Xiangru and would follow the City Committee's guidance.
Song Guanchao naturally went along with what he said.
Everyone makes mistakes, and doing wrong isn't terrifying as long as they are corrected promptly and not repeated in the future.
The dinner turned out to be quite harmonious, and after it, Jiang Yuan chatted with him a bit more before they separated.
Jiang Yuan leaned back on the sofa, feeling much more relaxed.
This dinner was his signal to the two secretaries at the City Committee.
Through this gesture, he aid to show the two secretaries that he did not wish to beco their enemy.
In the days they are around, he vowed to fully cooperate without using any sches.
Whether the two secretaries believe it or not is another matter.
After all, he had a record.
He reckoned that there wouldn't be much of an issue with Wu Qiangwei, but the main obstacle lies with Qu Xiangru.
Since his backing is Secretary Tian, in this regard, he and Qu Xiangru are entirely at odds.
He now can only hope that Secretary Tian will be able to assu the Governor position.
As long as Secretary Tian secures the Governor's spot, he won't need to mind Qu Xiangru's deanor.
Aside from this situation, there is another matter impacting his mood.
That would be Qin Yuejin.
Yesterday, in the interrogation room at the police station, he t Qin Yuejin.
Qin Yuejin made two requests.
First, money.
He wants thirty million, transferred to his wife.
Second, he wants Jiang Yuan to help ensure a lighter sentence.
He only made demands without discussing anything else.
But Jiang Yuan understood his implication.
If he doesn't comply, he and his family would remain in constant danger.
He naturally dared not gamble with his and his family's safety and agreed readily.
Thirty million is a considerable sum for him, but not unattainable.
What truly troubled him was handling the case for him.
But no matter how challenging, it must be done.
…
The following day, Jiang Yuan submitted Song Guanchao's na.
By noon, Song Guanchao received a call from Wu Qiangwei.
"Has the company been settled?"
"It's been settled."
"Okay to release the person?"
"Yes."
"Reach out to Liang Jianfeng and inform him."
"Alright."
Song Guanchao imdiately dialed Liang Jianfeng's number.
"Mr. Liang, Luo Sanming can be transferred to the Provincial Office."
Liang Jianfeng hesitated for a few seconds and asked, "Have you decided to act?"
He knew very well that once Luo Sanming was moved from Lingjiang to the Provincial Office, it was as if he had been prematurely sentenced to death.
Song Guanchao didn't hide it from him, "Once he gets to the Provincial City, sooner or later, he will be released. Therefore, he must die."
Liang Jianfeng said nothing and simply hung up the phone.
That afternoon, all related procedures for Luo Sanming were processed and he directly set off for the Provincial City.
anwhile, Zhang Yan also got wind of the situation.
She had already reached out to so leaders within the Provincial Office, intending to give him so special care during the transition.
Simultaneously, she also arranged etings with leaders from the Judicial Departnt and the Prosecutor's Office, intending to use money to open doors.
At all costs, she intended to protect Luo Sanming's life!
However.
On the sa night when Luo Sanming was transferred to the Provincial Office, a Deputy Division Director at a street office who had visited the Yunhai Club was arrested.
This news quickly spread throughout the Lingjiang political scene by the next day.
Everyone thought the matter concluded with Luo Sanming's transfer to the Provincial Office.
But now they suddenly realized that the affair seed to be just beginning.
So sharp individuals noticed so clues.
It seed soone intentionally used the Yunhai Club's videos to push Luo Sanming towards his demise!
