There are three reasons why it can't be managed.

Firstly, in the current government work, the economy is king.

The development of the bamboo industry has indeed increased the GDP of Sunglow Town to a certain extent, which is a fact, and it has also made a name for Sunglow Town. In this way, Tristan Reid's work in the county government is commendable.

Secondly, Tristan Reid has been working in Sunglow Town for twenty years; almost everyone up and down is his people, with deep roots.

He can basically achieve whatever he wants, and no one will stand up against him.

Although Sunglow Town is subordinate to Stillwater County, major decisions still need to consider the local actual situation.

This alone makes county interference very weak.

The third point is that Tristan Reid has someone above him.

After a large-scale brawl broke out between Tea Hill Village and Pinegrove Village, as the mayor, Tristan Reid should have been dismissed. However, the result was that only the town party secretary stepped down, and Tristan Reid only received a demerit.

"Who is the person above him?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Dahlia Hughes sighed and said, "Magistrate Sherman Summers."

Hearing this name.

Dirk felt a jolt in his heart.

"So you came to Sunglow Town today, not really to investigate, but to send a signal that you want to tell Sunglow Town that you're going to strongly support the tea industry next, right?"

Dirk asked.

Dahlia Hughes nodded.

She said, "My appearance is an experiment, I want to see what Magistrate Summers' reaction will be, and I also want to see what Tristan Reid's reaction will be."

After saying this, she patted Dirk on the shoulder.

She said, "Comrade Dirk, transferring you here was firstly to let you gain some experience, and secondly to hope that you would lead the people of Tea Hill Village out of their predicament. Economic development is important, but it's not fair to sacrifice the interests of some for the wealth of others. I called you out today hoping to prepare you mentally—Tristan Reid will definitely fight back."

Wow!

Aren't you pushing me into the fire pit?

I even put so much thought into serving you, and in the end, you're making me a scapegoat in Sunglow Town.

Dirk complained in his heart after hearing this.

But he didn't say it out loud.

After all, it wasn't just Dahlia Hughes present.

"Alright, I've said what needed to be said, I'll head off now. If you face any difficulties in your work, feel free to call me."

After leaving this sentence.

Dahlia Hughes turned and got into the car.

The coaster bumpy started up, then disappeared at a junction.

"Do you know why Executive Officer Hughes is so concerned about Sunglow Town's issues, willing to confront Magistrate Summers to come here?"

Suddenly.

The voice from behind startled Dirk.

Dirk turned around swiftly, finding Delilah Goodman standing right behind him.

He asked, "Why didn't you leave with them?"

"Didn't I say I'm here to assess the health clinic? I'll be here for two days."

"Oh."

Dirk nodded.

Suddenly remembering something, he asked, "Why is she so concerned about Sunglow Town?"

Delilah Goodman gazed deeply into the distance and said, "About four years ago, a large-scale brawl broke out between Tea Hill Village and Pinegrove Village, resulting in one death and over twenty injuries. The person who died was the deputy mayor who arrived at the scene, and the only leader present. His name was Eldar Hughes, and that year, he was 31."

"Eldar Hughes? That name... what does it have to do with Dahlia Hughes?"

Dirk asked.

Delilah Goodman slowly said, "That was her brother, her only biological brother."

Boom!

Like a bolt from the blue.

Dirk was stunned on the spot.

"Actually, Executive Officer Hughes, during her tenure as the discipline inspection secretary, wanted to deal with Tristan Reid, but because of Sherman Summers, she has never been able to. This is also why as soon as she took office, she sent you here."

Delilah Goodman's words were shocking to Dirk.

Originally, he was full of resentment.

But now, he felt sympathy for Dahlia Hughes instead.

On the way back.

Dirk invited Delilah Goodman for lunch.

After lunch, Delilah went to the health clinic, while Dirk returned to the town government compound.

Yawning, he was about to take a quick nap in the office. When he pushed the door open, he was stunned.

He thought he had entered the wrong room.

Dirk stepped back to look again.

No mistake, it was indeed his office.

Why was he so surprised?

Because what used to be somewhat messy and "ruined" by him was now incredibly tidy.

In the center of the room, a young man was mopping the floor, sweating profusely.

Upon hearing the door open.

The young man was also startled.

Seeing Dirk come in, he immediately greeted respectfully, "Hello, leader."

"You are..."

"Report leader, my name is Zach Griffin, I am a local of Sunglow Town, 26 years old, unmarried, live in Sunglow Town..."

Seeing the young man couldn't stop talking.

Dirk immediately interrupted him, asking, "I want to know why you are in my office?"

"Report leader, Director Lee called me here, he wants me to follow your instructions from now on. If you tell me to go east, I will not go west; if you tell me to beat the dog, I absolutely will not chase the chicken..."

"Alright, alright, then go grab that dog in the courtyard and give it a beating."

Dirk said.

Zach Griffin hesitated for a moment.

He immediately put down the mop and headed towards the door.

Dirk grabbed him and asked, "Where are you going?"

"The leader told me to beat the dog, and I won't chase chickens!"

Zach Griffin said with the utmost seriousness.

Dirk couldn't help himself and laughed out loud.

Zach Griffin scratched his head, looking confused.

"Alright, alright, I was joking. Did Deon Lewis tell you to be my secretary?"

Dirk asked.

Zach Griffin stood straight again, loudly responding, "Report leader, yes."

"Can you not speak so loudly in the future?"

"Report leader, okay."

This time, the volume was indeed lower.

"In the future, speak normally. Don't start with 'report leader', I'm not used to it."

"Report leader, okay."

Zach Griffin realized it was wrong as soon as he said it, quickly correcting, "Okay, leader."

Although he seemed a bit silly, he should be teachable. Right now Dirk lacked people around him, so he had no choice but to use him. Most importantly, Zach Griffin was a local. He needed a local for the many things he needed to accomplish.

With this in mind.

He pointed to the sofa and said, "Zach Griffin, have a seat."

"Rep... Leader, you sit, I'm fine standing."

"I told you to sit, so you sit."

"Oh!"

Zach Griffin obediently sat down, but his posture remained upright, his chest raised high, not daring to relax at all.

"Little Zach, since you're a local, do you know how to get to Pinegrove Village?"

"Rep... Leader, yes, I know."

"Alright, tomorrow's the weekend, come pick me up at my apartment in the morning, we'll take a trip to Pinegrove Village."

"Do you need to inform anyone else?"

Zach Griffin asked.

Dirk waved his hand, saying, "No, just the two of us."

"Alright, got it, I'll continue cleaning..."

After speaking.

Zach Griffin resumed mopping the floor.

Meanwhile, Dirk hadn't finished work yet.

But his apartment door suddenly opened without reason.

The door opened a crack, and two figures slipped inside one after the other.

Then, the door was gently closed again.
