The next day, Peng Jiasheng finished his research work as usual and left for his next stop, Tianfu City, at 10 a.m. After leaving, Zhao Xiaobei sent a message to Yu Xiangbo in the car: Mayor Xiangbo, because the leader has a tight schedule, he will not stay in Ningzhou any longer. You can come to the province to report to the leader when you have time.
Yu Xiangbo looked at the messages on his phone and knew that his analysis last night was not wrong. He also replied very politely: "Thank you, Comrade Xiaobei, I will call you before I go."
Xia Xihua and his entourage saw Peng Jiasheng off in the municipal party committee compound. As soon as Peng Jiasheng's car left, Xia Xihua returned to the office and called Deputy Secretary Yang Zhigang to report on Peng Jiasheng's investigation. Yang Zhigang didn't say much, he just told him not to be careless.
Xia Xihua himself didn't think so. He felt that he had worked in Ningzhou for so long, so he still had this prestige. He didn't believe that any clown would dare to jump out to fight with him, not to mention that there was a full-time provincial party committee member behind him. Deputy Secretary, third in command in the province. And judging from the situation, he will definitely be able to take the position of provincial governor in the next term, which will be a proper ministerial level. What qualifications does Peng Jiasheng have to compete with Deputy Secretary Yang Zhigang?
Here, Peng Jiasheng also heard about the pilot work of agricultural tax reform in Tianfu City, as well as some information about winter water conservancy repairs. But one thing was different, that is, he emphatically praised Executive Vice Mayor Ji Xiaofu, because it was this Executive Vice Mayor who took charge of their agricultural tax and fee reform pilot work. Returned to the province after dinner.
Then there is the normal daily government work, and Zhao Xiaobei is with Peng Jiasheng every day. When he was about to get off work on Friday night, Zhao Xiaobei's own cell phone rang. When he saw that the number was Yu Xiangbo from Ningzhou, he picked up the phone after a while: "Hello, Mayor Xiangbo."
"Secretary Xiaobei, I don't know if I have time tonight, but I would like to treat you to a meal, just you and me."
"Mayor Xiang Bo, my time mainly depends on the leader's schedule, you understand. When I ask the leader about his schedule for tonight, if the leader has nothing important to do, I will go to the appointment early. If there is something important, I will go to the appointment later. I will give you a call later. your phone."
When Yu Xiangbo saw that he had an appointment with Zhao Xiaobei, he said nothing more: "I understand, you are busy first. I will wait for your call."
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Xiaobei went to report the meal to Peng Jiasheng: "Boss, Mayor Yu Xiangbo is here tonight and wants to treat me to dinner."
"Well, you go early. I don't have anything else to do here. Pay attention to your methods and don't be too hasty. This matter needs to be solved slowly. Haste makes waste. The focus is on the restructuring of Guofu Mine. This mining disaster is just surface."
"Okay. Then I'll tidy up and send you off to get off work first."
"No, I'll walk back later and take a walk. I've been sitting in the office for a long time these days, and I want to take a walk."
After saying goodbye to Peng Jiasheng, Zhao Xiaobei tidied up his office. So I called Yu Xiangbo: "Mayor Xiangbo, I'm off work now. Where is your place?"
"Xiao Bei, I'll ask Xiao Guan to drive over to pick you up."
"No need, Mayor Xiang Bo, I'll take a taxi there myself."
"It's okay, Xiaobei. Xiaoguan drives a private car. Let him learn more with you."
Zhao Xiaobei couldn't resist: "Okay, just ask him to wait for me on the road outside the provincial government. I'll be there in about 15 minutes."
"Okay, he has arrived outside the gate of the provincial government."
Zhao Xiaobei was surprised. Yu Xiangbo was very proactive in doing things. He just liked people like this. My feelings towards Xiang Bo have grown even stronger, and I also know that this man will be a die-hard supporter of Peng Jiasheng in the future. According to his current age and rank, he will not be able to serve as the municipal party secretary, and he also wants to have a few more. Such friends as the municipal party committee secretary will also be helpful to me in the future.
Arriving outside the provincial capital compound, Guan Tu Shengcao was standing outside the cab, waving hard to himself. Zhao Xiaobei came to the car.
"Hello Secretary Zhao."
"Hello, Section Chief Guan." Because the secretaries of city leaders are usually the section chiefs of the secretarial department, Zhao Xiaobei just called him the section chief.
The journey was still a little far, and the car drove for half an hour. In the early 2000s, Beijiang City did not have heavy traffic jams, so traffic jams were not a waste of time. The dining area is a place similar to a farmyard, very quiet and smoky. Zhao Xiaobei took a look and saw that there were four rooms in the entire courtyard, which were four private rooms. So there were not many people. Zhao Xiaobei liked this arrangement very much. It was much better than eating in a hotel.
After entering the courtyard gate, Zhao Xiaobei saw Yu Xiangbo waiting for him outside the box door. Zhao Xiaobei didn't dare to hold him up, so he took three steps in two steps and trotted over.
"How dare you ask the leader to wait outside."
"Xiao Bei, it's an honor for me to invite you to dinner. I should greet you outside. Come on, let's move inside."
Zhao Xiaobei politely said the leader's invitation, and Yu Xiangbo quickly pulled Zhao Xiaobei into the box. Yu Xiangbo knew that Zhao Xiaobei was attending the appointment on behalf of Peng Jiasheng, the executive vice governor, so he couldn't be careless. Besides, even if it doesn't mean that Zhao Xiaobei's own identity is worth waiting for, especially for a cadre like himself who is like duckweed without a strong backer in the province.
There were only three people in the huge box: Yu Xiangbo, Zhao Xiaobei and Guan Tusheng. Guan Tusheng was still standing at this time because he had to pour wine for service later.
Zhao Xiaobei and Yu Xiangbo didn't talk about work, but they were like a pair of friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, chatting about everyday things. Asked about Zhao Xiaobei's family situation and his personal problems, Zhao Xiaobei answered them one by one.
Then he started drinking and drank several glasses of wine. Gradually, everyone became more relaxed, and the atmosphere became very good. At this time, Yu Xiangbo was the first to speak: "I'm here to thank you, brother Xiaobei. I think you know my current situation, brother, so I won't say more. I treat you to a drink this time just to show my attitude. From now on, we will fight wherever the leader tells us and we will never back down!"
This word is a pun. This leadership title can be regarded as Yu Xiangbo's honorific title for Zhao Xiaobei, and it can also be understood as the title for Peng Jiasheng behind Zhao Xiaobei.
"Yes, I am also the one who fights wherever the leader directs. Let's serve the leader well together."
Yu Xiangbo understood that this was Peng Jiasheng's acceptance of his approach. All that's left is to find out the leadership's pulse.
"In the future, don't call me Mayor Yu. Just call me brother, and I will ask you to call you brother. We will treat each other like brothers from now on."
"Okay, Brother Xiangbo."
"Well, brother, I'm just asking you which way I should go in the future. Can you help me figure it out?"
Zhao Xiaobei wrote four words on the table: "National Wealth and Reform"
Yu Xiangbo understood. He put his hand on Zhao Xiaobei's shoulder, whispered next to his ear: "Brother, I can really walk this road well. Just look at my performance."
The two of them no longer talked about work, they just had a lively chat about nonsense. In the end, the two of them drank almost two bottles of white wine and became a little confused.
Guan Tusheng first sent Zhao Xiaobei back to his dormitory, and then sent Yu Xiangbo home. During this drinking party, the two of them didn't say much. Guan Tusheng, who was standing next to him, also looked confused. He only knew that the two of them drank a lot of wine and didn't talk about anything substantive, but it could be seen that Both of them were happy and content. Especially his leader Yu Xiangbo, who kept humming a little tune on the way home.
