Officialdom is like a battlefield: you are in a pool of quagmire, with a cat standing on a stone, a toad squatting on a lotus leaf, and a loach in the mud. You can tell who is truly clean. I am afraid that the lotus root digger who has already come ashore has not washed away the dirt on his body.
Zhang Sanshou was imprisoned for "imitation Song Dynasty blue and white porcelain plates", and his full-time secretary Fan Jin also fell directly to the soil from a glimpse of the clouds.
In the first three years, I wrote the "eight-part essay" of the new era in the smoke, in the middle three years, I tasted the satisfaction that comes with power while organizing banquets, and in the last three years, I squatted in ridicule and licked the leftovers of failure.
3 Years and 3 years and 3 years and 3 years. There are many nine years in life to consider, and there are several three years in officialdom to squander.
Fan Jin seized the opportunity of taking a temporary job in Fengfu, started from the grassroots towns, and realized his ambition step by step. He became a qualified respondent in the questions and answers given by the tide of the times.
