306: Xia Quan's new position

“It is all thanks to you that I was able to get promoted.”

Neil put away his smile, his expression becoming serious.

“The transfer order is almost here. The higher-ups want me to serve as Chief Commander in another superior Galaxy. We probably won’t see each other often anymore, so I made a special trip to visit you.”

There was a hint of reluctance in his words. After all, during the time he worked with Li Yang, they had established a deep friendship.

“Alright.”

Li Yang patted Neil’s shoulder and said sincerely,

“If you need anything, you can always contact me. Although I don’t have many connections in the Guard Division, I might still be able to help.”

Li Yang was never stingy with his own people.

“Then I’ll be troubling you a lot in the future.”

Neil quickly thanked him, his heart full of gratitude.

He knew that Li Yang’s words were not just polite formalities, but a genuine willingness to continue providing him with support and help in the future.

In a warm and harmonious atmosphere, Li Yang and Neil continued to exchange pleasantries.

After the pleasantries, Neil checked the time, knowing he still had many matters to attend to, and stood up to bid farewell to Li Yang.

“Secretary Li, after today’s parting, I don’t know when we will meet again. Please take care!”

Li Yang also stood up, firmly clasped Neil’s hand, and responded with a smile,

“You too. Do well in your new position. I believe you will achieve new successes.”

Then, Neil straightened his body, gave Li Yang a standard military salute, and turned to leave the office.

Shortly after Neil left, the office door was gently knocked on again.

“Come in.”

Li Yang tidied up the documents on his desk and looked up, saying.

A Staff member walked briskly into the office, came to Li Yang’s desk, stood at attention respectfully, and reported,

“Secretary Li, comrade Xia Quan has arrived in This Galaxy Cluster.”

Upon hearing this news, a relieved smile appeared on Li Yang’s face, and he immediately said,

“Oh, bring him over quickly.”

His tone carried a hint of anticipation, as if he couldn’t wait to meet Xia Quan and discuss the upcoming work matters… At this moment, a starship slowly docked at the spaceport of This Galaxy Cluster.

The hatch opened, and Xia Quan, dressed in a neat and proper uniform, stepped out with high spirits.

As soon as he disembarked, a Staff member came up to him and smiled, signaling Xia Quan to follow him.

Thus, led by the Staff member, Xia Quan walked along the wide and bright corridor, passed through the busy and orderly spaceport, took a special transport shuttle, and sped towards Li Yang’s office area.

Before long, Xia Quan arrived in front of Li Yang’s office.

After gently knocking and receiving permission, he pushed the door open and immediately saw Li Yang sitting behind the desk.

Xia Quan hurried forward, his face showing gratitude, and said,

“Captain Li Yang, I really troubled you with this secondment.”

He knew very well that without Li Yang’s push behind the scenes, it would have been difficult for him to get such a rare opportunity.

Li Yang smiled and waved his hand, saying kindly,

“It’s a small matter, you don’t have to worry about it. Besides, without your plan, these two new departments would not have been established so quickly. Your contribution is indispensable.”

As he spoke, a hint of seriousness appeared in his eyes.

“By the way, now that you’ve been seconded here, you still need to pay attention to how you address people in a work setting. Don’t call me Captain anymore; address me by my position.”

“Yes, Secretary Li.”

Xia Quan reacted quickly and immediately respectfully changed his address.

He understood that in a new work environment, strict workplace norms were very important.

Li Yang nodded, motioned for Xia Quan to sit down, and then said,

“The main reason I transferred you here is because the Discipline Inspection Commission and the Supervisory Committee have just been established, and all positions are urgently in need of staff. Currently, the relevant transfer lists have been issued. In at most one week, all positions in both departments, except for the Deputy Secretary and Deputy Director, will basically be filled. During this period, there will be many and varied tasks, so you need to familiarize yourself with the work environment and procedures as soon as possible.”

As he spoke, he looked at Xia Quan with focused eyes, which held both trust and expectations for him.

In fact, while arranging Xia Quan’s secondment, Li Yang also considered transferring Anno.

After all, in previous work, Anno had shown excellent ability and a rigorous work attitude. Moreover, being one of his own people, if she could be transferred to the newly established department, she could help him with many things.

However, for such an important personnel transfer, Li Yang would naturally not act arbitrarily.

He first found An Cheng and frankly discussed this idea with him, and then personally asked Anno for her opinion.

After careful consideration, Anno still decided to remain in the Tellap System as chief justice.

Because in the last crackdown operation, Anno, relying on her excellent professional quality and decisive decision-making ability, successfully concluded multiple major cases, performing exceptionally well.

Coupled with An Cheng’s clever maneuvering and coordination behind the scenes, a smooth path was paved for Anno’s career development.

According to the latest arrangements, Anno will soon be transferred to a Galaxy court at the same level as the Milky Way Galaxy, under This Galaxy Cluster, to serve as Deputy Presiding Judge.

For Anno, this was undoubtedly a very good promotion, and a high recognition of her abilities. She preferred the work of the court over the Discipline Inspection Commission.

Li Yang respected Anno’s choice in this matter.

“Uh, Secretary Li.”

Xia Quan bowed slightly and said with a hint of apprehension,

“Currently, I don’t know which department I will be assigned to…”

He was both full of anticipation and a little uneasy, as there were many newly established departments, and the responsibilities and development prospects of each department were different.

“As for the department, I have already arranged it.”

Li Yang smiled, looking steadily at Xia Quan.

“I am transferring you to the Discipline Inspection Commission Office to serve as Director.”

His tone was firm, conveying unquestionable authority.

Hearing this, Xia Quan couldn’t help but widen his eyes, and a look of pleasant surprise instantly bloomed on his face.

He knew in his heart that the Discipline Inspection Commission Office was not some insignificant, powerless government agency, but a key department that truly held real power.

“Mainly, I’m not familiar with many people.”

Li Yang leaned back in his chair and said slowly,

“When it comes to employing people, it’s more convenient to use people you are familiar with, so that work can be done more smoothly, don’t you agree?”

The reason he made such an arrangement was partly because he valued Xia Quan’s abilities, and partly based on his trust in their mutual understanding and cooperation.

“Yes, Secretary Li is right.”

Xia Quan quickly nodded in agreement, his trust and gratitude towards Li Yang deepening.

He knew that this was not just an appointment to a position, but also a great trust placed in him by Li Yang.

“Alright.”

Li Yang stood up and patted Xia Quan’s shoulder.

“Go familiarize yourself with the department, get started with work as soon as possible, and if you have any questions, come find me anytime.”

His eyes were full of encouragement, giving Xia Quan immense support.

“Yes!”

Xia Quan straightened his body and responded loudly.

Then, filled with drive and a sense of mission, he turned and walked out of the office with firm steps, ready to face new work challenges…

At this moment, at the spaceport of This Galaxy Cluster, a starship slowly docked.
