Report

With Xu Qingshan's character, it was not just for this reason that he could make friends with Lu Yiwei. It should be known that the basis of maintaining friendship in the officialdom was the word "interest." Using a phrase that we often say, it was to optimize the allocation of resources and realize the rational use of resources. The officialdom was the same. The operation of power, the allocation of money, the interaction of eroticism, and the integration of emotions, whether it was in the open or in the dark, could not escape the source of the secular world. That was the law of human survival and the rules of life in the game.

The support of interest allowed this set of rules to operate orderly for thousands of years. People did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. On the contrary, if you violated the rules of the game, you would be isolated and helpless and eliminated.

Xu Qingshan had many and wide friends, and he could do well in both the black and white worlds. Normally, it was fine not to hand over an abandoned chess piece like Lu Yiwei, but he was very concerned about Lu Yiwei and secretly supported him a lot. Xu Qingshan's contribution to the successful establishment of the orchard could not go unnoticed. So what was his purpose? It was because of the "three cards" in his hand.

"Family card." When Lu Yiwei was lonely, he was like a god of plague. His friends and relatives all kept a respectful distance from him, afraid that they would suffer the same calamity as him. This was human nature, and it was also a need for benefits. When a person was at his most difficult time, if someone brought a bowl of hot rice or a cup of hot tea, it was the easiest to touch the feelings in the bottom of the heart. Xu Qingshan took advantage of this and took the initiative to make friends with Lu Yiwei. He knew that Lu Yiwei was also a man of temperament. At this time, he put himself in Lu Yiwei's shoes and provided charcoal in the snow, in exchange for a mine.

"Long-Term card." Xu Qingshan also had one advantage, which was that he could see far ahead. Although Chu Yunchi had fallen, the power behind him could not be ignored. The mayor of the Northern City strongly supported Chu Yunchi on different occasions. This signal could even be seen by a newcomer in the officialdom. Chu Yunchi was a dormant tiger. Once awakened, he would definitely start a killing spree to clear the obstacles for his career. Lu Yiwei was Chu Yunchi's right-hand man, and his protectiveness could not be simply compared with friendship. Even if it was driven by interests, Chu Yunchi would help Lu Yiwei. In this way, Lu Yiwei was a "blue-chip stock" with unlimited potential. There was no difference between good and bad stocks. It all depended on whether you had the foresight to discover potential stocks. Xu Qingshan's inference had been verified over the years. Chu Yunchi had moved from being high-profile behind the scenes to the front of the stage. It wouldn't be long before he returned to the center of power. Xu Qingshan often lamented the decision he had made back then. Obviously, the Party Secretary Wei Guoqiang did not see this.

"Alliance card." Wei Guoqiang relied on the County Party Committee Secretary Liu Kecheng to cover the sky with one hand and act arbitrarily in Beihe Town. He could not wait to eat the whole Beihe Town in one bite and did not take Xu Qingshan seriously at all. Over the years, he and the other deputy mayors had been playing small tricks, indirectly intervening in government affairs and deliberately taking away Xu Qingshan's power. In the end, Xu Qingshan only had a pen in his hand. He did not need to care about the project and just needed to sign it. It had become a decoration, and Xu Qingshan was naturally not willing to let it go. The enemy of the enemy could be his own ally. Only by uniting could they deal with a common enemy. Lu Yiwei was obviously very suitable.
