Chapter 78: Chapter 78: The New Official Takes Office
The meeting room of the town government was filled with all the personnel.
Today was the day Lin Fan took office as the new deputy town chief and also the day County Magistrate Luan
visited with the County Committee workgroup.
Those who mingled within the system naturally understood what this meant—it was quite obvious that County
Magistrate Luan was giving Lin Fan face, and it also represented the County Committee's supportive stance
towards him. Therefore, even though he was just the deputy town chief in charge of attracting investment, he
becthe object of everyone's flattery, including Mayor himself. The respect they showed to Lin Fan was
evident.
"I believe that under the wise leadership of County Magistrate Luan, Fengqing Town will certainly have more
room for improvement."
As soon as Lin Fan finished speaking, everyone clapped their hands fiercely, and Lin Fan, seated at the meeting
table, also saw Propaganda Committee member Zhou Daguai in the corner, vigorously performing his applause.
It has to be said, the ambition in his eyes was clear as day.
The meeting went on until nearly noon before County Magistrate Luan finally took the workgroup back to the
county in the minibus. Meanwhile, an excited Mayor Li Haiping grasped Lin Fan's hand, "Mayor Lin, from now on,
we will be working together as a team. If you have any thoughts, just let us know, and we will definitely
cooperate with all our effort."

"Then I'll be troubling Mayor Li in the future."
Lin Fan didn’t need to be modest; after all, everyone knew that he was merely there to add a feather to his cap.
The deputy town chief position might be someone else’s lifelong dream, but it was nothing more than a stepping
stone for him. He believed that before long, he would be transferred to the county, then to the district, and by
the the returned to the city, he would surely start as a director.
"What are you saying? It’s our honor in Lotus Town to have a talented person like you. | will personally host a
meal today at noon to welcyou."
Mayor Li Haiping warmly beckoned Lin Fan and the members of the town’s leading group quickly arrived at the
private room. Toasts were offered one after another, each unique, and Zhou Daguai, puffing out his chest,
declared his loyalty, "Mayor Lin, | am a blunt man and not good with words, but you'll see my performance. This
glass of wine, I'll drink up."
"Good, perform well."
To the man who had offered his own wife, Lin Fan still looked down on him from the bottom of his heart, but it
didn’t really matter. After all, Bai Xue had already been conquered by him, and just thinking about her obedient
and compliant demeanor was satisfying.
"Thank you, Mayor Lin!"
Zhou Daguai, oblivious to this matter, drained a two-ounce glass of liquor in one gulp. He instead felt that the
smile from Lin Fan conveyed approval, so a bold idea surfaced in his mind.
The drinking lasted until the afternoon, and Lin Fan, slightly tipsy, naturally couldn’t return to his office—being
seen in that state would damage his image. Moreover, the Fengging Town project had just started, and the
investment attraction work still had stto go. So, he found a foot massage parlor and walked in, chose a
private room, and enjoyed the services of the masseuse.
"Mayor Lin, hello, my nis Xu Guangfa."
Not long after, the door to the private room was pushed open. He was a man in his forties with a smile on his
face—indeed, the town’s police station chief Lin Fan had brought in, of course, the relationship had been
arranged from the city bureau.
"Director Xu, hello."
Lin Fan waved his hand to the masseuse, signaling her to leave. After she had left, he invited Xu Guangfa to sit
on the sofa next to him.
"Director Wu has already instructed that for your work in the town, we will fully cooperate with you. If there is
anything you need, please just say the word."
Xu Guangfa had long heard that the new deputy town chief had significant backing. He never imagined that on
the first day of taking office, the deputy director of the city bureau would call him directly and tell him to fully
support all of Lin Fan's actions. This esteemed treatment alone was proof enough of the rumors he had heard
before.

"Actually, | don’t have too much to do since my responsibility is merely attracting investment and I’m not
involved in the town’s day-to-day management. So, the reason I've called you here is a small personal matter
that | need your help with."
Lin Fan made it clear upfront that it was definitely not official business.
"Personal matters are fine, Mayor Lin, rest assured. I've been in Lotus Town for five or six years now; I'm quite
familiar with this turf. Just letknow whatever you require."
Upon hearing this, Xu Guangfa immediately perked up, especially since it was a blessing in disguise for the
prominent Mayor to seek his aid.
"This matter is somewhat embarrassing; I've received word that someone wishes to play ‘Immortal Jump’ on
me..."
Lin Fan didn’t hide the details and shared the situation as it was. When Xu Guangfa finished hearing this, his
eyes bulged in shock.
"Cai Hu and Cai Changbin, these two bastards, actually dare to target you? They've really rebelled. I'll have
someone arrest them now, detain them for fifteen days, and then we'll give them a hard time. Assure you they'll
be tripping over themselves to stay away from you in the future."
"Then that would spoil the fun,"
Lin Fan waved his hand and said, "If we arrest them now, then the ‘Immortal Jump’ can’t go on. So, I've thought
it over, and the best lesson is to let them try to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice..."
