Title: Secretary Dakang's Road to Progress

In the summer of 1986, Li Dakang, a graduate of the Chinese Department of Handong University, woke up from his dormitory bed and found that he was twenty-two years old again. He clearly remembered everything in his last life: working as Zhao Lichun's secretary for eight years, being scolded for building roads in Jinshan County, being jealous for setting up a development zone in Lincheng, and experiencing the 116 fire in Jingzhou. He remembers his wife Ouyang Jing's words in front of the investigation team that my matter has nothing to do with him, he remembers Zhao Ruilong's smiling face at the wine table in Shanshui Manor, and he remembers the muffled sound in the mountain village when Qi Tongwei committed suicide with a gun. He even remembered that he finally stood on the podium of the Central Party School, facing a group of provincial and ministerial level students summarizing the merits and demerits of land finance and reflecting on it. Then he came back. With more than sixty years of memories, I returned to the starting point of everything. Li Dakang finally realized a truth in his previous life: power itself is not dirty, but the hand holding power is dirty. And when he came back again, he had only one thing to do - Wash your hands and hold them tightly. This novel and its characters are purely fictitious.
