Chapter 3 Suburban Welcome
"Minister Feng, how can you wait? Why don't you go in? At the meal, Old General Li rarely mentions you." Xue Xiang was extremely surprised and didn't understand why Feng Jing came up with this again. Previously, in the minister's office, this person was really arrogant and arrogant. Although he was so vague that he was so smart that he could naturally notice it. But at this moment, Minister Feng, who has several figures in Liaodong, made "Chengmen Lixue" in the car, which made Xue Laosan unable to understand.
"You Comrade Xue Xiang is so fast. I just greeted Botao and told the cafeteria to prepare a welcome banquet for you. You didn't say hello and left first. Now, I quickly called Xiao Wang to chase him all the way. As I chased him, I arrived in front of Mr. Li's door. From a distance, I heard laughter and cheers inside. How could I go in and be a villain? Come on, come up, come up and chat." As he spoke, Feng Jing reached out to pick up the little guy.
However, Feng Jing is worthy of being a veteran in the officialdom, and his lies made him express his sincerity. Before, he had never told Xue Xiang that he would hold a banquet for Xue Xiang, and only said that Xue Xiang had a meal in the cafeteria. After Xue Xiang went there, he listened to Xiao Wang's report and said that Xue Xiang was picked up by a military vehicle when he arrived at the gate. He was shocked and shaky. He made the statement that Xue Xiang had just won the favor of Zhenhua's leader because of his achievements in the political achievements of Shantun, but actually had no background.
But Xiao Wang didn't know the military license plate and couldn't tell where the person who picked up Xue Xiang came from, but who Feng Jing was. He was at the highest level of Liaodong and knew exactly what powerful people were hiding in Liaodong. As soon as Xiao Wang asked about the military license plate number, he knew that it was the Li family who picked up Xue Xiang. Now, Feng Jing slapped his thigh. He knew that although Li Tieshan was old, he did not hold an important position in the military and political circles. However, as a founding general who went out of Liaodong, he was famous and had a great reputation. Every year, the provincial party committee team's reunion was one of the best.
Xue Xiangchu was taken away by the Li family when he first arrived in Liaodong. In this way, Xue had no background and origin, so he was just thrusting his mouth. Therefore, Feng Jing called Xiao Wang and acted like this outside the Li family because he knew that Xue Xiang was going to report in the afternoon. After lunch, he could definitely come out and see his grand minister waiting for him at the door, which showed full sincerity. The little neglect that had been in the minister's office before could be revealed.
However, after Xue Xiang got in the car, Feng Jing never mentioned the important matters, but kept introducing the historical sites and famous places in Liaodong and the legendary ambitions between the Baishan and the Black Water. He was really talking and telling the story. Even the little guy heard the interest and asked questions in a crisp manner, which made Feng Jing become more and more excited. He talked and laughed all the way, but for a moment, Xue Xiang had a great affection for Minister Feng, and the little guy even called "Uncle Feng" happily.
Xue Xiang was shaking in his heart, sighing that this was the boss’s ability, and muttered in his heart that Minister Feng was just like the two things, and he was polite to others, so he would have something to ask for.
Who would have thought that from the beginning to the end, Feng Jing never mentioned a serious matter. Finally, he returned to the Organization Department and personally ordered Director Chen of the Second Cadre Department to take Xue Xiang to his post. He repeatedly told him to the county. Finally, he even personally sent the Xue brothers and sisters to the car and helped him take the car door. He also shook his hand with a smile, without showing any slight slightest expression.
Seeing the big jeep disappearing from sight with the long exhaust gas, Feng Jing's smiling face suddenly froze, "Botao, why haven't you left yet?" If Feng Jing has really become a spirit, Chen Botao walked four or five meters away from him, and he identified the person from the sound of his footsteps.
Chen Botao was not surprised at this. It was obvious that this trick. The two of them had already become familiar with each other and smiled and said, "I didn't see your result of 'Xiao He's chasing Han Xin under the moon'. I can't bear to leave. Why? Judging from your solemn matter, is it true that you have a background?"
Chen Botao walked calmly, but his pace was extremely large. After a moment, he arrived at Feng Jing's side and continued: "I said that this kid has a background. You don't think about the 20-year-old county magistrate. I'm afraid I can't write it out in the play. If I ask me, maybe the results of Kaoshantun were not prepared by this kid. How old was he then..."
Chen Botao's old habits were broken again, and he began to talk about the evidence he had collected, and to prove that Xue Xiang was a yamen with great background. Of course, the main purpose was to prove that Xue Xiang was not climbed up by real skills.
Feng Jing knew the problem of "a handsome man indifferent" in this nephew. At this moment, he stopped Chen Botao's argument and said, "Okay, come to Beijing quickly. This is not the time to practice your mouth, and you can't find any useful things. You know the consequences."
Chen Botao naturally knew that Feng Jing was not false. What happened now is not only about Feng Jing, but also about his own fiery future. If Feng Jing arrived, he would naturally not be as good as him. The big river is full of water and small rivers, and the big river is not water and small rivers dry. He still understood that at the moment, he dared not talk too much and asked sternly: "Don't that kid has a background? You don't..."
Feng Jing glared at him: "Nonsense, I forgot to eat hot tofu in a hurry. I think you are really getting back to life."
"Uncle, there are no outsiders here, so please tell me what the hell is going to do when I go back to the capital? I can't just walk around without a head, right?"
"I have a way, so I don't need you to go to the capital to wander around. Forget it, fortunately, there is a breakthrough now. After you enter Beijing, listen more and talk less. You mainly help me find out about Xue Xiang's news. However, please be careful."
"I understand, alas, this is the only way at the moment. I hope I can break it out."
....................................................................................................
In June, it was the day of summer and the rain was not raining for a while, and the heat could not be eliminated. The four windows in the jeep were wide open. The driver Da Wu in front seemed to be very hot, and the speed was always high. But even so, the narrow space was very stuffy. The little guy was so hot that he couldn't stand it anymore. Even Xiaobai, who had been leaving her, was placed on the seat aside. Her little hands kept rubbing the scars on her forehead, which seemed to be stuffy, with itchy wounds and signs of inflammation.
"Director Chen, how far is it from Xiaoshan County?" Xue Xiang pulled the little guy's little hand and refused to let her rub it, for fear of infection and melting the pus. He lifted her onto the seat and blocked his little body in the air outlet on one side. Try to help her cool down.
Director Chen, the co-pilot, said without looking back: "It's hot, alas. Speaking of which, the capital and our Liaodong belong to the north, but the imperial city is the imperial city. When it's cold, our Liaodong is colder than the capital. When it's hot, our Liaodong is also hotter than the capital..." After talking about the Tongxian chapter, Director Chen came to the main topic: "Mr. Xue, I'm going to tell you that although I am native to Liaodong, I am from Xiaoxian and my hometown in the south and north. I have heard of it for a long time, but I have never been there. After joining the work, I have been in Liaoyang and have never been to Xiaoxian. I can't answer your question, why don't I let Dawu drive faster and catch up with Minister Sun's car in front of me to ask?"
Speaking of which, Director Chen is not a talkative person. The reason why he turns into a chattering man at this moment is that Feng Jing personally sent Xue Xiang into the car and helped close the door. In the officialdom, many things cannot be said in words, and even if they turn into words, they often do not explain them thoroughly. Then it depends on personal experience. Obviously, Feng Jing's behavior is almost obvious to sell Xue Xiang well. How could Director Chen, the old agency, not telling him a step back. Even if Feng Jing did not act like that, just look at the youngest deputy county-level cadre in the history of Liaodong, he would not underestimate Xue.
Director Chen mentioned that Minister Sun Ke was Sun Ke, deputy director of the Organization Department of Huayuan Prefecture Committee. After the organizational procedures were completed, Yang Bo, deputy secretary of the Prefecture Committee, personally ordered the general to accompany Xue Xiang. At this moment, because Da Wu and Director Chen were not familiar with Xiaoshan County, Minister Sun’s car was leading the way.
"No need, I'm worried that this car can't fly, right?" Xue Xiang joked, but muttered in his heart. If he really responded with no brains, he would definitely be treated as Kaizi by the person surnamed Chen.
Sure enough, Xue Xiang did not respond. Director Chen felt a little regretful and thought to himself that he had tried this way and did not make people feel unhappy. He was a mistake. After a moment of silence, he started talking more and introduced the scenery along the line. I don’t know whether to cover up the embarrassment or show kindness to someone else. However, Xue Xiang thought that nothing happened and responded with a smile. However, he really hoped that Da Wu’s car would be faster, and he was too hot at this moment.
"Long guy, it's so hot!" The scorching sun hit the window, and the little guy suddenly lowered his head, and the wind could not stand.
Xue Xiang pulled her over and opened the left and right doors. In an instant, a huge convection air vent was formed, and the space was wide open. The stuffy air instantly dissipated. The little guy jumped happily, shouting "It's so cool". Even Xiaobai, who had been lying on the seat and sticking out his tongue, suddenly stood up, roared in the wind, and put on his claws, Xue Xiang, as if he was praising him for coming up with a good idea, and seemed to complain, "How come you think of such a good idea now?"
As soon as Xue Xiang opened the door, Da Wu and Director Chen in front also shouted "refresh" repeatedly, and asked Xue Xiang in the back seat to pay attention to taking care of the children.
When he got bored, everyone in the car was just looking at enjoying the cool breeze, but there was nothing to say. Soon, the car bumped up. Da Wu in front of him called Xue Xiang in the back seat and closed the door if he really couldn't do it, and told him that safety was the first. With Xue Xiang's ability, this bump was naturally nothing. Even if the little guy is several feet away, he can ensure that there is no harm, let alone sitting upright beside him, responding and thanking him, which made Da Wu keep saying that the cadres who came down from the capital were just polite.
Xue Xiangzheng responded to Da Wu, and Director Chen, who was on the co-pilot, said: "Here, he arrived, he arrived, Xiaoshan County. Alas, he finally arrived. I just said, why did the cement soil turn into stone roads in a while? It turned out that it was in this Xiaoshan County. Alas, Xiaoshan County is indeed poor. He was in the ministry before and had never come down. I only heard that the people of Xiaoshan County are famous for petitioning. The cadres of Xiaoshan County are famous for asking for money from their superiors. Not only in the province, but also in Beijing, their group is also famous. The Central Poverty Alleviation Office has criticized our Governor Liao by name...."
Director Chen was nagging again, seemingly complaining about the poverty of Xiaoshan County, but in fact he was introducing Xiaoshan County to Xue Xiang the biggest dilemma, that is, "poverty".
After a long chatter, Director Chen said again: "County Magistrate Xue, you are sent to Xiaoshan County by the Central Committee this time. I am afraid you will be the firefighting captain? I heard that County Magistrate Xue graduated from Beijing University, and I must have a lot of money in his heart, but the situation in Xiaoshan County... Haha, look at me, I have no one to keep my mouth shut, and I can't hold it anymore. Hey. I'm here to pick us up, Da Wu accelerates..."
Xue Xiang knew that this was the last news that Director Chen passed to him. It was also the most important news - the situation in Xiaoshan County was very complicated, so complicated that it was far away in the provincial capital. Director Chen, who had never even come to Xiaoshan County once, must have been extremely complicated. Although Director Chen did not say it all, it was meaningful. Although Xue Xiang knew that this was probably what Director Chen gave to Feng Jing for the sake of Feng Jing, he was also grateful in his heart. After all, this is the case with the relationship between people in the officialdom.
Xue Xiang said thank you very much. However, he reached out and patted Director Chen on the shoulder three times. Such intentional or unintentional, and just right greeting made Director Chen feel very upset. He called Da Wu to lean over and lightly lit his head.
Xue Xiang got off the car, but saw twenty or thirty people standing on the three-meter-wide gravel road more than ten meters ahead, surrounded by a jeep with half of the door, plus four hand-held tractors. There were also several bicycles, the twenty or thirty people, either Zhongshan suit, green cloth work suit, or police uniform. They were clean and tidy, and they all came to him. After a moment, they collided with Minister Sun and his party in front.
Where everyone stood, there were two bamboo poles on both sides of the stone road, with plastic cloth tied to it, and the seven main characters "Welcome to Xiaoshan County" were painted with red paint on the plastic cloth. Looking at the mottled plastic cloth, there were already numbers missing on the arms and legs, and looking at the bamboo pole also had a split mouth, Xue Xiang couldn't believe that this was the facade of a county, and he couldn't believe that there was such a shabby boundary mark in the world. Even though it was 1979, he had the most intuitive understanding of the poverty of Xiaoshan County in his mind.
Xue Xiang stared at this unique boundary monument for a long time, but the twenty or thirty people standing under the "boundary monument" over there were tossing and making noises. He kept hearing someone shouting "Hello Director Chen" and "Welcome Director Chen", and occasionally there were voices of "Welcome Minister Sun". No one mentioned "County Chief Xue" or even called him.
On the contrary, Da Wu, who had not got off the car in the car, gently pressed the horn and reminded Xue Xiang. Xue Xiang then led the little guy and moved closer to the crowd. Soon, he saw a thin middle-aged man with a thin appearance and slightly frosted left temples coughed twice. The greetings around him stopped. He heard him say: "First of all, Director Chen of the Provincial Party Committee and Minister Sun of the Prefectural Party Committee can personally go down to our Xiaoshan County and send good cadres to our Xiaoshan County. On behalf of the county committee, I would like to extend my warm welcome and sincere greetings to you!"
A big speech from Northeast China was spoken ups and downs and very funny. The word "天" was reread, as if the horn of war was sounded. In an instant, there was thunderous applause.
The applause lasted for more than half a minute. The middle-aged man smiled and waved his hand to stop the applause, and then talked about the New Year poem. At first, Xue Xiang felt fresh, but after listening for a while, he became tired. It was not a good thing to stand in court at 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Seeing this person looking at the style and inferring from common sense, Secretary Wei Qiming, who must be the leader of Xiaoshan County, spoke quite like a river and a long stretch of miles. I really don't know when he was the leader.
Even if he was impatient, Xue Xiang still had to hold back. As soon as he entered the officialdom, the rules he should have were absolutely certain. Besides, he was just a first time, so there was no need to leave a bad impression on others because of his unbearableness. Xue Xiang had already made up his mind to endure it, so he let go of the little guy in his hand and signaled her to find a shaded place to enjoy the cool air, but the little guy grimaced and held his big hand, without moving.
It seemed that God had eyes, and Director Chen on the other side suddenly interrupted: "Comrade Qiming, we have already felt your enthusiasm. I have already felt deeply uneasy when I let the comrades wait in the scorching sun for a long time. Now, I feel really uneasy when I let the comrades accompany me in the scorching sun. Comrade Qiming, there is no need to say what we welcome. I believe that more than I have received the sincerity of the comrades, Minister Sun must have received it."
Minister Sun was a big fat man there. He was wearing overalls and his belly was even bigger. He couldn't stand it when he was rushing under the scorching sun. Now he listened to Wei Qiming's long speech and scolded his mother in his heart. Now, when he heard Director Chen's words, his head was immediately lit like a chicken pecking at rice, and he kept saying "feeling" and "feeling".
At this moment, Wei Qiming didn't know where he was wrong. He felt a little annoyed and wanted to say something pleasing, but he didn't know where to start. While he was hesitating, the short man in Zhongshan dressed in Zhongshan next to Wei Qiming spoke: "Director Chen, Minister Sun, I'm so sorry. It's all because our Xiaoshan County is too poor. We can't even build a pavilion for sunshine and shelter from the rain. I will suffer. Later, at the reception banquet, I, Yu Dingzhong, must toast and apologize to you on behalf of the county government. Of course, if you apologize, we will talk about it later. Why didn't the newly arrived County Magistrate Xue come down? Could it be that he thought it was hot and could not get out of the car? This is not OK. You should leave the comrade..."
Yu Dingzhong was the county magistrate of Xiaoshan County. Xue Xiang went down. Although he did not fully understand the situation in Xiaoshan County, the head of the county party committee and county government still found out clearly. Just this time, Xue Xiang heard the trick. The head of the county party committee and county government were not in harmony. Just now, Wei Qiming made a statement only to represent the county party committee. At this moment, Yu Dingzhong only released a county government. In this way, the party committee was a big republic system, it was obviously extremely inappropriate. Wei Qiming didn't even jump at his eyelids, obviously he was used to it.
At this moment, when Yu Dingzhong finished speaking, Xue Xiang continued: "It's County Mayor Yu, I'm Xue Xiang!"
"What!"
"Wow!"
For a moment, these two words were left in the audience, which seemed extremely shocked!
ps: Adjusted, it will return to normal tomorrow, and a few chapters will break out at the beginning of the month. I will ask you for the guaranteed monthly ticket for next month. I will correct my attitude. Thank you for your support!
Chapter completed!
