The pinnacle of power: starting with having sex with a female leader-Chapter 514: Discussing Personnel Issues

Cheng Yuan cautiously asked, "Sis, who do you plan to put in charge of Mashan Town?"

Cheng Yuan’s gaze was well-concealed, but Shen Manwen still saw through his intentions.

Pick me, pick me, pick me.

Shen Manwen rolled her eyes in exasperation.

Logically speaking, this little rascal had just made a significant achievement, so promoting him directly from Deputy Director of the County Government Office to Town Party Committee Secretary wouldn’t be too outrageous.

But what she needed most now was to deliver results!

For her at the moment, having Cheng Yuan work on attracting investments was far more useful than letting him control a town.

"Cheng Yuan, I know you want experience governing at grassroots level, but don’t be in a hurry, first help me do well with the investment work!"

Investment work?

Cheng Yuan’s eyes lit up.

"Letting me take control of the Investment Bureau works too."

Shen Manwen looked at Cheng Yuan with apologetic eyes.

"Ayuan, with your abilities and the merits you’ve established, being the head of the Investment Bureau is no problem."

"But, Liang Zhong has approached me multiple times to report work, and his intention to align with me is very clear."

"A lot of people are watching! If I take down Liang Zhong, it would dishearten those cadres who have aligned themselves with me."

"So, I can only impose on you for the time being."

"Liu Xi suggested before, establishing an Investment Promotion Office for the Development Zone, designated as a regular department-level unit, reporting directly to me."

"This suits you perfectly, let’s solve the department-level position for you first, the rest we can talk about later."

There was something Shen Manwen didn’t say: if she rashly promoted Cheng Yuan to be the Director of the Investment Bureau, Jin Zhanpeng would definitely not agree.

Cheng Yuan’s face revealed a satisfied smile.

"Anything for you, sis. I’m happy to do whatever you ask."

Shen Manwen lifted her fingers relaxedly and tapped Cheng Yuan’s forehead.

"You little rascal, always so sweet-talking."

Cheng Yuan let out a mischievous laugh and wrapped his arms around Shen Manwen.

"Sis, am I only sweet-talking? Aren’t other parts sweet too?"

"Mm... stop it, it really hurts."

"I just want to fall asleep holding you."

The two embraced each other playfully like an ordinary couple and fell asleep.

It wasn’t until daybreak that they opened their eyes.

Since coming to Ji County, Shen Manwen had been late twice.

Both times were because of Cheng Yuan.

Shen Manwen stretched her limbs, rubbing her slightly sore arms and legs, and couldn’t help but sigh.

"No wonder some emperors in ancient times skipped the early court sessions; the scent of a beauty truly is the tomb of heroes."

Cheng Yuan caressed Shen Manwen’s slender waist, grinning roguishly, "Clearly, sis, you’re the beauty."

Shen Manwen lifted a finger and hooked Cheng Yuan’s chin.

"Alright, alright, I’m the beauty, satisfied? My king."

The two got up, washed up quickly, had a quick breakfast, and then headed to work together.

To avoid suspicion, they entered the county government building one after the other.

Cheng Yuan, as usual, went to his office to slack off.

Shen Manwen sought out Cheng Qianqian right away.

"Qianqian, contact Secretary Zhanpeng and Minister Qiu Sheng, and ask them to come over."

"Okay!"

After a pause, Shen Manwen instructed, "First call Minister Qiu Sheng over, then after ten minutes, call Secretary Zhanpeng."

"Okay!"

Before long, Huang Qiusheng arrived, and Shen Manwen personally stood at the door to greet him. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

The two talked congenially.

Ten minutes later.

Jin Zhanpeng received Shen Manwen’s invitation.

Jin Zhanpeng felt uneasy inside; since Shen Manwen took office, he had always been contradicting her, consistently undermining her work.

She should hate him down to the itch of her teeth by now, so why would she suddenly invite him for a talk?

With a heart full of doubts, Jin Zhanpeng arrived at the County Chief’s office.

As he entered, Jin Zhanpeng felt his heart jump—why was Huang Qiusheng here?

Jin Zhanpeng sensed something was off and quickly laughed it off.

"Hahaha, since the County Chief and Comrade Qiu Sheng are discussing matters, I won’t disturb you. I’ll come back later."

Shen Manwen quickly insisted, "Comrade Zhanpeng, it’s exactly you and Minister Qiu Sheng that I wanted to discuss personnel adjustments with."

Jin Zhanpeng’s internal alarm twanged!

Normally speaking, the Party Secretary has the final say in official appointments, and the county chief’s influence in this regard is minimal.

Indeed, to some extent, it might even be less than his position as the full-time deputy secretary.

But Ji County’s situation was very peculiar; currently, there was no County Party Secretary!

The county chief also held the deputy party secretary title, and her rank was higher than his.

At this critical moment, Shen Manwen’s power over personnel matters was greater than his!

Shen Manwen wasn’t planning to hold back at all!

She was planning to take complete control of Ji County before the new secretary arrived!

With such a strong background like yours, Shen Manwen, you’re surely not afraid of the new secretary, but what if, after the new secretary arrives, all this gets blamed on me?

Jin Zhanpeng’s eyes swept over Huang Qiusheng with an inquiring look, the expression clear.

Old Huang, have you decided to thoroughly side with Shen Manwen?

Have you thought it through?

No Party Secretary would tolerate having an organization (HR) minister who isn’t one of their own!

If the Party Secretary suggests adjusting the organization minister, the higher authorities will undoubtedly support it!

This is a necessary measure to ensure the authority of the Party Secretary!

Huang Qiusheng made as if he saw nothing, indicating he didn’t catch Jin Zhanpeng’s hint.

He had already spoken with Shen Manwen for ten minutes, quite thoroughly, including discussions about his future position.

Anyway, he was set on following Shen Manwen’s lead!
