Chapter 619: Extensive Discussion

Chen Chuan followed the secretary into Mayor "s office. Governor Zhu was already waiting there. Seeing him enter, he greeted him with a smile, "Supervisor Chen, please have a seat."

He instructed the secretary to bring out his treasured tea leaves. After he sat down, he said, "Supervisor Chen, it's been two years in a flash, hasn't it?" He said with emotion, "I still remember the scene when I invited you here. At that time, I had just taken office not long ago. Time really flies."

Chen Chuan said, "Yang Zhi is much better than it was two years ago."

Zhu Xian smiled and said, "Speaking of which, I, the Mayor , picked up a bargain. You cleaned the house for me and let me move in. If Molan Company was still there, could I have done better than my predecessor?"

He said with certainty, "It would have been nothing more than having the ambition but being unable to realize it, having the talent but being unable to display it. It's like an actor on a stage. If the stage isn't set up, or isn't set up well, then he can't perform a good show."

He looked at Chen Chuan and said with a smile, "I've read the case files from back then. The destruction of Molan Company involved your participation, Supervisor Chen. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that you fired the first shot. So, others may think you've risen quickly, but I think it's very appropriate. Da Shun needs talented young people like you.

And what we can do is pave the way for you, help you solidify the road ahead, remove the sharp edges, so that you can walk faster."

Chen Chuan said, "If it's too smooth, I'm afraid I won't be able to appreciate the hardships of my predecessors."

Zhu Xian said with a chuckle, "Supervisor Chen is right, jade must be polished to become a tool. Ah, come, have some tea. This is Yunge tea I brought from my hometown. It's best picked when the sound of stone being tapped comes from the mountains. At that time, tea pickers will sing mountain songs and climb among the cliffs and clouds. I've been out for so many years, and I haven't seen that scene in a long time."

Chen Chuan picked up the teacup and took a shallow sip. The tea that Governor Zhu brought out to entertain him this time was indeed good tea, fragrant and sweet, producing saliva and endless aftertaste.

After Zhu Xian took a sip, a look of reminiscence appeared on his face, "Speaking of which, when I was young, I was full of enthusiasm, fearless, and had a reckless energy. I did a lot of things at that time, but I also offended a lot of people. I was always complained about by my colleagues, and my superiors rarely gave me a good look."

He suddenly chuckled, "A colleague said to me jokingly, saying that I had broken my forehead a lot, but unfortunately, the direction was wrong. I shouldn't go up, but down.

I was very unconvinced at that time, so I wasted many years, watching many people who were not as good as me rise step by step. Now, looking back, it's still difficult to describe the feeling. Many times, it's not that your ability is outstanding that you can definitely go up, but also that someone appreciates you, someone supports you, and someone helps you.

A thousand-mile horse is common, but a Bole is rare."

His voice was faint: "If no one promotes you, no matter how much ability you have, no matter how much talent you have, it is difficult to display."

Chen Chuan said, "Who does Governor Zhu think can help me?"

Zhu Xian looked at him and said, "Supervisor Chen, I watched you leave from here back then. I am willing to say a few sincere words to you. I don't know if those people can help you. In this world, there is no reason to give without asking for something in return. If they give you benefits, then they will definitely get more in return from you.

You rejected them this time. If they stop paying attention to you, that might be a good thing. What's scary is that they have their eyes on you. Many people can't accomplish anything, but they are very good at doing bad things, so you have to be careful."

Chen Chuan nodded. He took another sip of tea, then put the teacup aside, stood up, and said, "Thank you, Governor Zhu , for telling me these words. I understand Governor Zhu "s meaning. And thank you for inviting me to drink tea. I think I should leave."

Zhu Xian stood up with a smile, "Supervisor Chen, take care." He also instructed the secretary, "See Supervisor Chen off for me."

Chen Chuan nodded to him and walked out. Zhu Xian watched him leave, then returned to his desk, put on his glasses, and continued to pick up the documents on the desk to read.

After a while, the secretary walked in, "Governor, I've seen him off."

Zhu Xian didn't look up, he only said, "Understood."

The secretary hesitated, leaned closer, and whispered a reminder, "Does the Governor think highly of Supervisor Chen? But those people may be from the Central City Council."

Zhu Xian wrote an instruction on the document, then took off his glasses and said, "You, what kind of world is this now? Everywhere we are promoting those Martial Artists . Martial Artists who control force have never been valued as much as they are now, which shows that this is the general trend, and of course we must follow the trend.

Central City Council? A capable person like Supervisor Chen, even if he has temporary setbacks, he will not always be like this. When the opportunity comes, he will soar into the sky. How could he really be held down? It doesn't hurt to befriend him."

The secretary suddenly understood, he showed a look of admiration, "The Governor's consideration is still far-reaching."

Chen Chuan left the Government Affairs Hall and had the motorcade take him back to the family area. Because it was afternoon, Instructor Wen should be at the Patrol Bureau, so he didn't rush to disturb him. Instead, he returned home and took advantage of the free time to make a round of calls to acquaintances and old classmates , arranging to meet sometime soon.

Then he did some simple daily Cultivation to maintain his state.

In the evening, around ten o'clock, he guessed that Instructor Wen should have been back for a while, so he came to the outside phone booth and made a call. After it was connected, he said, "Instructor Wen , it's me."

After a pause, he added, "Kenwa has been taken care of."

Instructor Wen was a little surprised. He could have anticipated that this assessment would not be difficult for Chen Chuan , but he didn't expect the action to be so fast. It's only been less than two days, right?

He replied, "Supervisor Chen, I will call Mr. Zhuan to contact him now, but Mr. Zhuan may be busy and may not be able to come over in time. I will notify you when he arrives."

Chen Chuan thought for a while and said, "I should come over. It's not good to make Mr. Zhuan wait for me. Besides, I have some questions I want to ask Instructor Wen ."

Instructor Wen smiled and said, "Okay, then Supervisor Chen, you come over first."

Chen Chuan hung up the phone, changed his clothes, took some things he had searched from Kenwa , and then went out.

In less than ten minutes, he arrived at Instructor Wen "s place. After being welcomed in, Instructor Wen said with a smile, "Mr. Zhuan lives in a hotel not far from here. I just called him and told him. We'll just wait. He'll always come."

Chen Chuan nodded. After he sat down in the living room, he said, "Instructor Wen , someone from the Refinement Sect came to me today."

"The Refinement Sect..."

Mr. Wen was slightly surprised. After thinking for a moment, he said, "It's not surprising that other factions have noticed a talented and outstanding young man like Supervisor Chen. However, to come all the way to Yangzhi City to find Supervisor Chen, it should be an explanation from the upper echelons of the Refinement Sect.

But you can rest assured that there are mutual agreements between the factions. As long as you join the Purist Faction, they will no longer bother you. Even if there is trouble, the faction will solve it for you."

Chen Chuan said, "Does Instructor Wen know about this Refinement Sect?"

Instructor Wen said, "The Refinement Sect, like our Purist Faction, is also a Martial Combat faction handed down from old times. This faction has a greater Influence in the middle and upper levels.

In old times, this faction would select talented people from the children of high-ranking officials and nobles for training and teaching. This tradition has run through several old dynasties.

They have left behind many inheritances and legacies, and their foundation is very deep. However, in the old dynasty, although the Imperial Family used them, they were also very wary of them. Therefore, in each dynasty, while wooing them, they also continuously suppressed and weakened them.

In the new era, the Refinement Sect still takes the upper class and elite route, has extensive connections in the Government and Companies, and has formed a huge network of interests with the help of the faction.

The Refinement Sect often recruits potential personnel as supplements, absorbs them as part of itself, and makes them work for itself.

They came to recruit you, they should want you to become an outer appendage and be their pawn.

Because so far, what determines the status of a member of the Refinement Sect within the faction is not the strength of Strength, but their own origin and status. Only people with high enough status can get more favor and teaching, and a very few will be accepted through marriage.

But don't underestimate their martial power because of this. They are willing to invest resources in truly talented people. Many Martial Artists in the faction are very Strong."

Chen Chuan thought for a while and said, "Listening to Instructor Wen , it seems that this faction has been dependent on power from ancient times to the present?" If that's the case, then it's actually a very traditional Martial Combat faction practice.

Instructor Wen said, "That's what they show, but this is likely to be just their superficial purpose. They should have deeper pursuits, but that's not what I know."

Chen Chuan asked again, "Is there a conflict between the Refinement Sect and the Purist Faction?"

Instructor Wen said with a smile, "As long as they are not colluding with the opposite existence, or are tainted by the Strength on the opposite side, then cooperation between the factions is possible.

The Great Boom is just around the corner. Although friction and conflicts between factions have always existed, and confrontation is inevitable due to ideological issues, internal disputes are not allowed to occur to a greater extent from top to bottom, which is also the consensus of all parties."

Chen Chuan understood. Next, he asked some questions about the various factions, and Instructor Wen patiently and one by one explained, giving him some preliminary understanding of the current situation.

Although Mr. Zhuan was late in coming, the two people didn't seem to be in a hurry, drinking tea and chatting, until about two or three o'clock, when clear footsteps sounded on the street outside the courtyard.

Instructor Wen said with a smile, "Mr. Zhuan has arrived."
