The Beauties Help Me Become the No.1 Official

Chapter 128: Chapter 128 The Treatment of a Prospective County Magistrate

Lin Fan’s Range Rover stopped in the County Government Building, and after getting out of the car, he

straightened his shirt, which had been ironed by Zhu Dan herself. It must be said that this kind of powerful

woman seldom does household chores, so she would only do such things when warmed by love.

As he walked into the county government building, Lin Fan knocked on County Magistrate Luan’s door and

entered after receiving a response.

"Lin Fan, you don’t need to knock next time, it feels too formal."

When he saw it was Lin Fan, County Magistrate Luan immediately stood up, warmly walked out from behind his

desk, and sat down on the couch beside him.

"County Magistrate Luan, may | know what important directive you have for me?"

Despite the polite treatment, Lin Fan knew better than to be impolite himself, as offending someone in the

political arena could stem from something as trivial as a look. Maintaining a serious face, he took out a notebook

and pen from his bag, ready to make notes, a sign of respect when conversing with a leader.

"It's not really a directive, we're just chatting informally. After all, you've been working in Lotus Town for half a

month now, and both city and district leaders have placed their focus on you. They specifically calledto find

out about your situation. As the county magistrate, | need to check in on these things, otherwise | wouldn't know

how to report to the higher-ups."

County Magistrate Luan pressed his hand on Lin Fan's notebook, and his words revealed sdetails—that the

city and district leaders were both keeping an eye on Lin Fan. The city leaders were clearly Zhu Defu’s people; as

for the district leaders, they were probably arranged by Guo Baoming.

"Everything has been going smoothly. My colleagues are very cooperative, including Mayor Li, who has

considerable support for my work. Everyone is quite supportive. I've also continued to follow up on the Chinese

Herbal Medicine Cultivation project. | just accompanied experts from the Provincial Agricultural Science Institute

to complete the field survey in Victory Village and I'm planning to promote it in my hometown as well. We've

prepared fifty acres to start a pilot."

Lin Fan quickly reported on the recent work discussions, but County Magistrate Luan frowned, only to then show

a slight smile, "Lin Fan, you are the youngest town-level leader in our city. | know you're eager to achieve

something significant early in your career, but you must be mindful of how you do things. Make sure no one gets

hold of anything that could be used against you."

"County magistrate, I'll remember that."

The subtle expression on County Magistrate Luan’s face alerted Lin Fan. Recalling what he had just said, it

seemed there was nothing incorrect, but the implication was clear that there was something off with his

approach, leading him to be suspicious, though he obviously couldn't ask directly as the other party wouldn't be

explicit.

Fortunately, he had the former Mayor's Wife as his think tank. It looked like he must return to the city this

evening.

"This t| called you over to discuss the recent plans in the county."

As County Magistrate Luan could tell that Lin Fan understood the hidden meaning in his words, he changed the

subject directly: "These past two years, our Red Flag County has had many projects, with Lotus Town being the

focus of a new tourism zone, which will be promoted as a tourism county. Therefore, there will be a tender

meeting next week. This tender is attracting interest from many companies in the province, so | hope you can

joinin the tender reception work next week."

"I... join you... is that appropriate?"

Lin Fan looked surprised at County Magistrate Luan; he sounded more like his role was to report to him than

being a deputy mayor. Joining the County Magistrate for reception work was somewhat overstepping his level.

"There's nothing wrong with it. | might go for further studies at the end of the year, so the future work of the

county will need someone to take over. | hope we can align our opinions in advance to avoid future

complications. It's settled then; cto the county next week and letknow if you need anything, I'll take

care of it."

County Magistrate Luan smiled and patted Lin Fan's shoulder, his meaningful words astonish Lin Fan again.

"I don’t need anything. | will definitely cooperate with the leadership!"

Lin Fan quickly spoke up, as County Magistrate Luan’s intentions were clear—he saw him as his successor,

though Lin Fan knew there could be changes, he naturally couldn't refuse.

"That's settled then. I'll find tnext week and introduce you to the departments in the county as well. They

are all looking forward to meeting you. Once everyone has met, it will be easier to coordinate work moving

forward."

While they were talking, the office door was knocked, and a man in his fifties walked in, smiling and bowing to

Lin Fan and County Magistrate Luan, "Brother-in-law, this is what you askedto prepare."

As he spoke, the man handed over a room card to County Magistrate Luan, and the address startled Lin Fan, but

what County Magistrate Luan said next shocked him even more.

"He is my brother-in-law, the newly promoted director of the health bureau. In this county, you can ask him to

handle any issues. As for this room card, it’s for a suite in our five-star hotel in the county. You'll stay there when

you cto work next week."
