Chapter 468: Testing the Waters

Upon hearing these words, Zhou Qing was dumbfounded, then he burst into laughter.

He lit a cigarette and shook his head as he spoke, "County Magistrate Mu, don't joke with me. I'm just a deputy county head without much power. Even if I wanted to make you the Party Secretary, I'm powerless to do so!"

"As for my father-in-law, he has already made it clear to me that he doesn't want me to abuse his name for my own ends."

"Even if I went to him, I fear he wouldn't concern himself with such trivial matters!"

Zhou Qing sneered inwardly; he was not a fool. How could he possibly accept Mu Haibing's rise to power?

Unless there was a profit to be made.

After all, it had been Mu Haibing who constantly plotted against him and even made a move against Wang Xu's battery company.

If it weren't for his quick wits, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
