Chapter 847: Now She’s Facing a Multiple-Choice Question

“Current affairs and politics are part of the high school leaving examination, so of course I pay attention to them. I’ve talked to several people about it. The situation of the Qiao family is roughly similar to the rest of the four wealthy families, although it’s split into two factions. The one who is competing with you is the eldest son of a branch faction. It seems that his competing with you for the position doesn’t sit well with the main family faction.

The Qiao family is split into two factions now. The main family faction is led by Qiao Ximin’s father; the other branch faction is led by Qiao Yunling’s father. The leaders of these two factions have been in fierce compet.i.tion during the past few years, and they have always supported different camps.

Now that Qiao Ximin’s father has chosen the Prime Minister’s camp, Qiao Yunling’s father will definitely choose the Young Commander’s camp.

If he wanted to get into the position of director, he would have to think of a way to pull his compet.i.tor down.

However, Yun Xi didn’t plan to touch Qiao Yunling’s faction, simply because the enemy’s enemy was her friend. She still wanted to use Qiao Yunling to deal with Qiao Ximin.

Them infighting was better than her getting involved herself.

In Yun Xi’s previous life, Qiao Yunling hadn’t been as innocent and kind-hearted as she seemed on the outside. If she could befriend her through their common interests, it might be helpful toward her setting traps for Qiao Ximin in the future.

“I know about what you’re talking about. But which of the powerful families nowadays isn’t plagued with infighting over status and self- interest? But after all, the main family branch has greater power and more people supporting them. No matter how much they are picking on the branch faction, it’s an internal issue within their family. It has nothing to do with the elections.”

Yun Xi nodded, but sneered to herself. How could it have nothing to do with the elections?

Once the branch faction managed to get themselves elected to the directorate of the Infrastructure Bureau, they would be able to use this position to ama.s.s great capital and bargaining chips to help with the rise of the branch faction.

If the Prime Minister can’t win over the branch faction, he would rather destroy them than let them strengthen Mu Feichi’s camp.

It would only require a small bit of manipulation to get the main family branch to use everything at their disposal to spoil the elections. Yun Xi wouldn’t even need to do anything.

Now she was facing a multiple choice problem.

Yu Xi didn’t plan to do anything to the branch faction. In order to give them enough bargaining chips to compete with the main family, she would have to help the branch family get the position.

While a.s.sisting the branch faction of the Qiao family wasn’t difficult for her, she couldn’t let them take the position of director, because she wanted to get Yun Yuanfeng in that position first.

He was a key piece in her game. If he didn’t get the position of director, then he would be as good as dead and useless to her.

This opportunity only came once every three years. If she missed it, she’d have to wait another three years. There could be way too many things that could happen in the span of three years, and she couldn’t be sure that there wouldn’t be some unexpected accident. So, she had to seize this opportunity and get Yun Yuanfeng in that position first.

As for the branch faction of the Qiao family, another one of the pieces of her puzzle, she would need to think more thoroughly to decide which position would be more suitable for them and where they could be the most useful.

“Dad, how is this unrelated to the election? If the main family don’t want to see the branch get in that position? They’ll definitely try to spoil the elections.”

“You’re right. Why didn’t I think of that? There’s probably still a chance for a turnaround. But, although this is an opportunity, in the end it may not be as effective as becoming affiliated with the Young Commander. It would be so much better if I could get his support.”

Yun Xi raised her head, purposely acting innocent, and said, “Didn’t the Young Commander say that you don’t need to worry about it? I think he’s already hinting that he’ll help. There’s still some time before the elections. Just be patient for a while more, Dad.”

Yun Yuanfeng looked toward her. On this path, he wanted to be hopeful but at the same time he dared not to be too hopeful.

Yun Xi hadn’t directly told him that Mu Feichi would help him. Help is much more appreciated when it comes at crucial, desperate times. Only then would it be remembered deeply.

Giving Yun Yuanfeng benefits too early on would cause him to take such things for granted and not be grateful for it.
