The motorcade formed a long queue in front of the Lishui Hotel, but the crowd of farewell people in front of the car did not leave for a long time.
"Lao Gu, I want to thank you for your warm hospitality this time. I hope you can continue to work steadily on the economy in the future so that the people of the county can achieve a well-off life as soon as possible. You must call me when the project is completed and unveiled, ah."
The two held hands, and Lian Hai patted Gu Dachang's shoulder vigorously.
"Okay, don't worry, Mayor Lian, we will do it for sure."
Lian Hai lowered his head and whispered in Gu Dachang's ear: "In addition, I am very satisfied with today's lunch. I want to praise it. I will tell you when I come next time. Except for the stew, I can enjoy everything." Don’t eat!”
"Haha, with what Mayor Lian said, I promise to complete the mission!"
"well."
Next came Qi Guomin, Lian Haihai came up and said: "Comrade Qi Guomin, you are very incompetent as an organization minister."
"ah?"
Before anyone could react, Lian Hai continued with a smile: "To bury the talent of Bai Zhe, you must deeply reflect on how to carry out future work and select talents for the party. You must be eclectic. For people with abilities like Bai Zhe, Young people who are outstanding and active in thinking must be given a lot of guidance to use their talents, and they must not rest on their laurels and hold back the organization, ah?”
After listening to Lian Hai's words, Qi Guomin burst into laughter and nodded repeatedly: "What Mayor Lian criticized is that after I go back, I will review it carefully and write another review to try to get the organization to treat me leniently."
"Haha..." Lian Hai raised his head and laughed, waving his hands again and again: "You have a lot to say, Minister Qi, don't take it to heart. In fact, you, Minister Qi, are indispensable for appointing Comrade Bai Zhe as the acting mayor of Lishui Town. I also want to praise you." And you."
Qi Guomin just smiled and nodded, but there was nothing he could say.
Then Lian Hai came to Chen Decai again and encouraged him. Finally, he shook hands with Bai Zhe and said goodbye. While shaking hands, he asked strangely: "Tell me the truth, how did you know that I like to eat stews?" , it’s really refreshing for me to be able to eat such a delicious big pot dish.”
Bai Zhe quickly apologized and said with a smile: "I accidentally hit you, even the mayor, you are flattering me."
Lian Hai patted Bai Zhe on the shoulder and said, "Young people are good. They know how to remember the bitter and sweet, and always keep their mission in mind. As the mayor of Zhanghai, I sincerely invite you to visit the city when you have time."
"Don't worry, mayor, I will definitely visit you when I have the opportunity."
Lian Hai said to Bai Zhe again in a mysterious tone: "Let me remind you, our city will select the top ten outstanding young people in the city during the May 4th Youth Day. You must sign up to participate. I will vote for you when the time comes. .”
Bai Zhe nodded repeatedly and said, "Thank you, thank you, Mayor Lian, for your concern. Leaders, please rest assured that I will do my best to participate in the selection and strive to give you a satisfactory answer."
"Okay, be ambitious!"
Lian Hai raised his head and waved: "Thank you comrades from Wenwu County for your warm hospitality. I won't interrupt you. I look forward to seeing you next time."
"Mayor, please go slowly, leaders, please go slowly, have a nice journey."
"Bon Voyage……"
Amidst the blessings of everyone, Lian Hai, his wife and the accompanying office publicity department got on Coaster, closed the car door and finally disappeared in front of everyone.
"Bai Zhe, I'll call you when I get back. Goodbye."
Reporter Jiang Qian waved vigorously to Bai Zhe in the car, and her clear voice echoed in everyone's ears for a long time.
She knew that this year's performance depended on this handsome guy named Bai Zhe. As long as she could dig out more stories about Bai Zhe and make a special report on rural grassroots work, it would definitely become the focus of the city, and thus she would become the focus of the city. Taiwan Li became the chief reporter, and the year-end bonus was designated to be even higher.
Also feeling excited was Mayor Lian Hai, who was sitting in Coster.
Sitting in the car and looking at the beautiful rural construction outside the car window, it depends on Bai Zhe, the acting mayor of Lishui Town, whether he can shine in front of the provincial party committee and the provincial government this time.
Being able to establish a relationship with the top leaders of the five ministries and commissions of the Provincial Committee is actually a very delicate matter.
Take the relationship between myself and Li Simin. Back then, with the help of a son-in-law relationship, he went from being the mayor of a new county to being a deputy section-level deputy director of an office in a provincial unit. In the blink of an eye, it has been almost thirty years. , see what status they have now, and what status you have.
When he had an extramarital affair with the woman named Cao Xuemei, he was still a department director, and he took the initiative to fend for himself in order to curry favor with his boss.
At that time, I was not married yet, so I was not punished much for having an illegitimate daughter. Then there was no news about the girl.
He also climbed up step by step, and later became the mayor of Zhanghai City probably with his help.
He is at the deputy department level, but he is at the main department level.
A whole level difference.
Don't underestimate this level. If nothing happens, it will probably be like this for the rest of your life, and you will continue to work until retirement.
But things are different at the deputy ministerial level. With proper treatment at the deputy provincial level, you might be able to work for him for another ten or twenty years if you have more activities.
The little kindness I showed back then has been repaid long ago. If I take advantage of Bai Zhe's line and help him again, I might be able to climb up the ladder again.
The ambition that suddenly arose because of Bai Zhe made Lian Hai feel more and more energetic. Looking at the Propaganda Minister sitting in front of him, Lian Hai decided that he might try it tonight to see if his old gun could still hold up. Can't go into battle to kill the enemy.
…
Three hours ago, Li Simin closed the car window and picked up the phone.
After much hesitation, I dialed the number.
"Don't live there anymore, take your daughter and disappear immediately."
There was silence on the other end of the phone.
After a long time, I heard a crying voice: "Li Simin, I haven't heard from you for twenty years. Do you know how I have lived these twenty years? Now you suddenly called me to tell me this ?"
Li Simin took a deep breath and said calmly: "Xuemei, you have to be sensible."
"I will no longer be rational. Let me tell you, Li Simin, what you owe us, mother and daughter, I want you to pay back everything, every penny!"
Immediately, the call was hung up, and Li Simin held the phone for a long time without putting it down.
The male secretary in the front row adjusted his glasses and said nothing.
"Help me get through to Minister Qin."
The secretary quickly took out the phone from his briefcase and dialed a number.
"Hey, is this Secretary Li?"
The secretary quickly handed over the phone. Li Simin reached out to take it and put it to his ear. Then he sighed deeply and said, "Minister Qin, I'm tired..."
When Qin Zhongwei heard these words, he immediately understood that he really had hope this time.
As the head of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, Qin Zhongwei, even with the help of Mr. Qin, was still powerless in the face of Li Simin, a powerful political opponent.
He has Mr. Qin, and Li Simin has Mr. Zhao. One is the Organization Minister, and the other is the Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee. Who can reach the next level? Without this sentence, the winner will still be difficult to determine.
"Haha, Lao Li, this is not your style."
"Haha, I just want to catch up with you, nothing else."
"Okay, let's go outside."
Li Simin nodded: "Send me your location and I'll be there right away."
"Okay, that's it."
The other party hung up the phone.
Only five minutes later, the location information was sent to the secretary’s mobile phone.
An hour later, the Audi stopped directly in front of a noodle shop in the old city. Li Simin looked up and looked at this old noodle shop that had not changed its sign in twenty years.
Stepping into this noodle shop, Qin Zhongwei, Qin Shuya's father, finally revealed his true face in Lushan at the window seat.
He is nearly fifty years old, wearing a dark blue Chinese tunic suit, with short black hair, a straight forehead with a few wrinkles, and a pair of bright eyes under his thick eyebrows. He sits there without being angry, which makes many people come to him. Diners staying away from the restaurant.
When the two met, they just raised their hands to say hello, and the secretary quickly walked up to the counter and made tea for them.
"What? Do you still like the noodles here?"
Qin Zhongwei nodded: "Twenty years later, I will never forget the smell here."
Li Simin saw Jing Siming and sighed: "Yes, twenty years have passed. Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, we have all become so old, haha."
He said with a self-deprecating smile: "But you are still young, and there is still a long way to go in the future. I can't do it anymore. I am already fifty-eight this year. In two years, I should retire and enjoy a happy life."
Qin Zhongwei stretched out his hand and patted the back of Li Simin's hand, and said: "We have been friends for the past year. I think that the New Year will be here. You are a deputy department cadre and I am a section officer. We are inseparable. This noodle shop is still Did you bring me here?"
"Don't mention it anymore, that's all in the past."
At this time, both of them thought of a sentence in the Buddhist scriptures: "Everything is suffering, and we can only overcome it by ourselves." 】
Qin Zhongwei seemed to have remembered something and asked again: "Hey, I recently heard that your young master made a joke for you, which had a great impact. I wonder how he is doing now?"
"Haha..." Li Simin pointed at Qin Zhongwei with a smile: "Zhong Wei, Zhong Wei, I have raised my hands and surrendered, and you are still here pretending to be confused with me. You are indeed Mr. Qin's proud son. I really have you."
Qin Zhongwei quickly raised his hand and said: "I promise the party that I heard this from others, but I really don't know."
"Don't you know?" Li Simin didn't believe what he said, and said calmly: "But your precious daughter knows it very well. I don't believe you didn't watch the video!"
Qin Zhongwei nodded and admitted, "I watched the video. It was Shuya who called that boy Bai Zhe away, but I really didn't know about it."
Li Simin looked at Qin Zhongwei and smiled bitterly: "Forget it, these are no longer important to me. If this happened, at least a disaster has been avoided. This time I am convinced that I will lose. I will not lose money if I lose to you Qin Zhongwei."
Qin Zhongwei took a sip of water and said: "Actually, to be honest, I feel sorry for you. If it weren't for extraneous problems, the position of Provincial Party Committee Secretary would be yours. But there are unforeseen circumstances, and no one can guarantee that nothing will happen. Accident."
