Chapter 2704 2706 [Send Buddha to the West]

   "How to say?" Hearing what he said, Jin Quan asked in puzzlement.

"The so-called helping people to the end and sending the Buddha to the west. Since you intend to support Bai Xiongqi, why not do it more simply." Xiang Nan explained, "Such sluggishness and slowness made him impatient and resentful. Your original support and cooperation have been cancelled."

   "Hmph, I'm still in power, and he's already bullying me like this. Once I really give him the power, how can he take me seriously." Jin Quan said angrily.

  He supported Bai Xiongqi to take over the position, originally because he wanted him to protect the Jin family. But looking at Bai Xiongqi's performance now, I'm afraid he can't count on it at all.

   "Father, at this point, the arrow is already on the string, and I have to do it." Seeing that he intends to repent and does not want Bai Xiongqi to succeed him, Xiang Nan quickly persuaded him.

  In this cruel political struggle, if Jin Quan fails, he will fail to know people. I didn't realize that Bai Xiongqi was an ambitious wolf, promoted him all the way from section chief to chief, and cultivated him as his confidant.

  As a result, after Bai Xiongqi successfully received his political resources, he was knocked to the ground in turn. In fact, when Bai Xiongqi became the chief, Jin Quan could no longer restrain him.

   "Hmph, I won't post it, what can he do to me?" Jin Quan said angrily.

  He knows the reason why people take tea to cool down. Before he left, the tea was almost cold. I really have to go, the tea is probably frozen.

   "Father, it's better for you to step back than not to step back. It's just like saying that you will die and survive. The prime minister is the target of public criticism. I don't know how many people are staring at him. Bai Xiongqi may not sit securely.

   At that time, we still need your support, so he needs your support, but we can take the initiative. On the contrary, if you are in power for a day, you will still be attacked. In order to keep the throne, you still need to rely on Bai Xiongqi, and let him control it instead. "Xiang Nan persuaded.

   After Jin Quan listened, his eyes lit up, he thought about it carefully, and finally nodded.

  …

   Then in mid-June, Jin Quan formally submitted his resignation to the president and resigned from the position of prime minister of the cabinet. However, he did not resign from all public offices, but found himself the position of chairman of the Senate Select Committee.

  The chairman of the special committee has the power to participate in and discuss state affairs. Although it is not as powerful as the prime minister, it is also a jurisdiction over the prime minister.

   After Jin Quan resigned as prime minister, Bai Xiongqi took office smoothly and became the new prime minister. For this reason, he held a grand celebration reception in Baifu, inviting celebrities and gentry from all walks of life to celebrate.

  The Jin family naturally also received invitations, inviting everyone in the Jin family to attend the banquet.

   "This Bai Xiongqi is really superficial. He has just become the prime minister, yet he is so arrogant and domineering." Jin Fengju couldn't help curling his lips.

   "If it wasn't for his father's support, how could he be what he is today? Now it's unreasonable to show off in front of us." Jin Pengzhen also said contemptuously.

   "That's enough, let's talk about people's wrongs." Jin Quan couldn't help scolding them when he saw that they were sour, "You all go to this banquet, even me."

   "Father, why are you giving him face like this?" Jin Fengju asked puzzled.

   "That's right, what's his virtue and ability to ask you to congratulate him?" Jin Pengzhen also complained.

   "Shut up. Don't you understand the current situation?" Jin Quan glared at his two sons, then looked at Xiang Nan, "Lao Qi, tell them."

   "Yes, father." Xiang Nan nodded, and then explained, "Eldest brother, third brother, today is different. Father was the prime minister before, so we naturally don't need to look at Bai Xiongqi's face.

   But now times have changed, Bai Xiongqi is the prime minister, and his father has abdicated, so we have to make changes. It's not that we want to look at his face, but respecting him is still necessary. After all, we will inevitably ask each other for things in the future. Why don't we burn incense and hug Buddha's feet in our free time?

  Besides, let’s take a step back, even if we have no desires, he is the brother of Xiuzhu and Sansao, and he is also a relative of us. Let's give him a show, and the two companies look good.

   Otherwise, if we don't go, of course we will give the Bai family shame, so what face will our Jin family have? "

   "Do you understand now?" Jin Quan looked at the other three sons and said.

  Jin Fengju, Jin Hesun, and Jin Pengzhen all nodded.

   "It's just father, why do you want to resign as prime minister and hand over the position to him?" Jin Fengju said again.

   "Hmph, if you brothers are up to the challenge, am I going to take advantage of outsiders?" Jin Quan cast a glance at them all, cursing with hatred, "I hate that you have been working for so many years, not to mention that you have achieved nothing, and you don't even have the same vision as Yanxi.

  Now that the political situation is in such chaos, you have no sense of crisis at all. You only know how to eat, drink and have fun, and eat vegetarian meals. When I am here, I can still help you maintain it. Once I'm not here, can you support the Jin family? He's still talking big and brazenly, playing the role of the Prime Minister's young master? ! "

  Jin Fengju, Jin Hesun, and Jin Pengzhen were all blushing with embarrassment after hearing this.

   "Father, calm down, the elder brother, the second brother, and the third brother have abilities, but they were not able to show their talents because of you.

   Now that you're retired, it's time for them to show their talents. Seeing this, Xiang Nan hurriedly persuaded him.

  Jin Quan nodded.

  …

   Afterwards, the Jin family went to the White House for a banquet together.

   "Congratulations to Boyan, I finally got my wish." Jin Quan clasped his hands and said with a smile.

   "Thank you, teacher. Without your support, I wouldn't be where I am today." Bai Xiongqi said modestly, "I need you to remind me more in the future, so that I won't make mistakes."

  Jin Quan laughed when he heard this.

  When everyone present saw the Jin family congratulating Bai Xiongqi on his appointment as prime minister, they couldn't help talking about it.

   "Prime Minister Kim abdicated and Prime Minister Bai took over. At first, I thought it was the discord between the two families, but now it seems that Prime Minister Kim intends to support Prime Minister Bai."

  "Prime Minister Bai is a student of Prime Minister Kim, and his sister is the daughter-in-law of Prime Minister Kim. With such a relationship, it is no wonder that Prime Minister Kim abdicated in advance."

   "The golden and white families have long been married, and one is prosperous and the other is hurt. Such a family is probably stronger than the four major families of the Dream of Red Mansions. No one in the capital would dare to mess with it."

   After Jin Fengju, Jin Hesun, and Jin Pengzhen overheard everyone's conversation, they realized why their father insisted that the whole family come to congratulate each other.

  Because if the Bai family doesn't come, or only sends one or two people, it will cause criticism from outsiders. Thinking that the Jin and Bai families may be at odds, they began to suppress the Jin family.

   After all, the Bai family is now popular, and in order to please the Bai family, there will be some people who are ready to move. Not to mention that the Jin family already had some political enemies, and in order to prevent it from making a comeback, they might come up and step on it.

But now that the Jin family is here to congratulate, it is extremely grand, and in front of everyone, they put on a look of sharing weal and woe with the Bai family, and they are in the same spirit. If outsiders want to bully the Jin family, they must first think about it. Can not cause gold and white two at the same time.
