The Official's Road to Power

This is a novel about the workplace and officialdom. In truth, there is no real dividing line between the two: they share the same rules and unspoken rules.

Li Gang, the son of a farmer, has no powerful connections. After graduating from college, he works hard to become a frustrated civil servant in a poor county. A transmigration and rebirth during a major fire sends him back to the early 1990s. Reborn, Li Gang gains no special abilities, but as he retraces the path of his life, whether through fortunate coincidence or the will of Heaven, he avoids one trap after another, including sexual and political traps, and gradually rises to become a prominent figure in the region. Along the way, he faces off against men and women alike.
