Chapter 88 People and Circles
Updated: 2012-08-06
(There should be additional updates today. Thanks to the brothers who have always supported and supported the more vulgar ones!)
Chen Huai sat on the sofa without asking He Yuelian to sit down. He leaned on the back of the chair and looked up at her and asked, "If you want to contract the entire supply and marketing cooperative from me, aren't you afraid that Secretary Du has any ideas?"
Perhaps because of his disheartened heart, He Yuelian restrained her usual style of showing off, stood in front of Shen Huai, and said with a hard tie: "I contracted the reception station. Secretary Du helped a lot, but I don't owe him anything; he can't restrain me if I like to do in Meixi Town..."
"By the way, when I first arrived in Meixi Town, the Party and Government Conference nominated Wang Gang as the director of the Steel Plant Security Department, but he has never shown his face and has now expelled the steel plant. I heard that the town has not seen him come back, where did he go?" Chen Huai looked at He Yuelian calmly and asked Wang Gang's whereabouts.
"It's not been a day or two since Secretary Chen arrived in Meixi Town. I used to be so bad that I didn't have to explain anything to Secretary Chen, right?" When talking about his son, He Yuelian's face became colder, and her voice was like Tuo Bing fell down. "How do I know where Wang Gang went? Perhaps Secretary Du knew better than me, a mother."
Just looking at He Yuelian's appearance, it is hard to imagine that she has an adult son.
Chen Huai smiled. He knew that He Yuelian had no feelings for the son born to his first ex-husband. He Yuelian's first ex-husband, Wang Gang's biological father, was to He Yuelian's essay. After the resignation, he reported it to prison and eventually died of illness in prison. The reason why He Yuelian gave birth to his son Wang Gang at the age of sixteen was said to have used forced methods for his first ex-husband.
He Yuelian's son Wang Gang asked Chen Dan to slash him, but she did not drive Chen Dan out of the reception station.
Chen Huai was not angry about He Yuelian's sudden cold attitude. He just wanted to confirm that He Yuelian would not have any threat to him and said, "I have seen the situation of the supply and marketing cooperative now. It is more serious than the surface. I have thought about contracting the supply and marketing cooperative as a whole. You go back and prepare the materials well. If it is feasible, the town will consider transferring the supply and marketing cooperative as a whole to you for contracting..."
"Ah!" He Yuelian was a little stupid. Chen Dan insisted on returning the 4,000 yuan gift to her. She thought that the contracting of the supply and marketing cooperative was gone, and she was angry for a moment and did not give Chen Huai a good look. She didn't expect that the turn of things was going on. She was completely wrong.
Chen Huai stood up, left He Yuelian in a daze, looked at Chen Dan coming upstairs, bit his ear and asked, "Is it very hard?"
"It's okay." Chen Dan looked at He Yuelian standing alone in the chess and card room in a daze, not knowing what happened again.
It was getting late, so Chen Huai and Chen Dan sent Zhao Dong, Yang Haipeng, Zhou Ming, and the Xiong sisters away, and also sent Xiao Li back to the house to rest. Only then did the hotel end the day's business.
Chen Dan also had to count the day's turnover bill, and Chen Huai sat on the chair behind the counter waiting for her. Chen Dan also said that as long as the business was restored to before he came to Meixi Town, even if the contract fee was 240,000 yuan per year, it would be profitable. Chen Huai would not worry about Chen Dan.
A girl was dodging in and went inside. Chen Huai leaned over and looked at it. The girl also happened to look back to see if Chen Huai had noticed her. The two of them met. The girl was startled and ran away like a rabbit, almost hitting the door frame...
"It's the girl from Nanyuan. Have you really invited her here?" The girl Chen Huai looked familiar. She was the girl named Zhu Liling who I met in Nanyuan a few days ago. Unexpectedly, Chen Dan hired her.
"Yes, Xiao Zhu studied catering management in the city tourism school. He worked in Nanyuan for two years and knew more than me. I invited her here to be the deputy manager of the catering department." Chen Dan looked at Zhu Liling's careful look and smiled and warned Chen Huai, "Don't scare the little girl if you are okay; and you are not allowed to take advantage of the girls in the hotel."
"Where is the deputy manager, can I scare her? Besides, if I can take advantage of anyone, you are staring at me..." Chen Huai smiled and told Chen Dan about He Yuelian's contracting the supply and marketing cooperative.
"You were determined to kick Sister He out of the reception station, why did you want her to contract the supply and marketing cooperative again?" Chen Dan asked in confusion.
Chen Huai had nothing to hide in front of Chen Dan, so he asked Chen Dan to sit on his lap and talk.
Chen Dan turned around and saw that there was no one else in the front hall. The girl had gone back to the dormitory to rest. She was happy to be closer to Chen Huai. She sat on it, but grabbed his hand and refused to ask him to touch it.
The guest room department was not satisfied with the accommodation, so Chen Dan used a few temporary dormitories as hotel dormitories; girls like Zhu Liling could go home at night without having to rush home at night.
"After all, I still want to do things well," Chen Huai said with emotion. "The key to doing things well depends on people. It is far from possible to rely on the steel mill's own human resources to do it so quickly. Zhao Dong, Xu Wendao, Pan Cheng and others are not valued in the city steel mill, but if they are really released, which one cannot stand alone? On the steel mill, I can constantly poach people from the city steel mill to supplement the situation, but what can I do in this part of the town?"
Chen Dan nodded. The managers of the steel mill can be hired externally with high salaries, but not externally with government personnel. The Asset Management Office has been listed for ten days. Not to mention that Chen Huai served as the director of the Assets Office, the only one who can really use the personnel and ability and level is Guo Quan.
Other leading cadres in the town, He Qingshe, are capable, and others are all virtuous. Chen Dan is also very clear. Even if ordinary clerks are included, there will probably not be many people who can meet Chen Huai's employment requirements.
"There are many problems in the town and they are very serious, but in the end someone still needs to deal with them and do things," Chen Huai said. "Take the supply and marketing cooperative as an example. If it is not handled in time at this time, it will be a mess for two or three years. In the end, the town government will have to solve it. No matter what, He Yuelian is still a capable person. As the saying goes, she will not avoid relatives from being employed inside and not being evaded from being employed outside. She can solve the problem and make the supply and marketing cooperative good for everyone. Why not do it? Besides, even if she makes a mess, then she will make a mess..."
Chen Huai looked gloating and wanted He Yuelian to make a fuss. He called Chen Dan helpless and asked him again:
"Aren't you worried that she still has an affair with Secretary Du?"
"Don't worry," Chen Huai shook his head and said, "Du Jiandu did not threaten me. What am I worried about He Yuelian doing? It was a gesture to kick He Yuelian out; it was also a gesture to let He Yuelian come back..."
"As long as you are capable, even if you look ugly before, you still want to use it?" Chen Dan asked.
Chen Huai looked up at Chen Dan, looked at her clear eyes, and asked, "Do you think I'm very realistic?"
"No," Chen Dan shook his head firmly and said, "There are not so many right and wrong in this society, and I am not a little girl."
"Yes, this is not a world of black or white. I don't think about being an honest official. The key is to do things," Chen Huai said. "In China, if you want to accomplish things, you need not only someone above but also someone below. Du Jian will eventually leave Meixi Town. It is impossible for all the party members and cadres in the town who used to wear the same pants as Du Jian in the past, and most of them will still have to stay. Should you kick them to the stool and raise them for free? In addition to the ugly appearance of eating and having a deep public grievance, other people who can use it still need to use it. Just say Huang Xinliang, I scolded him so much when I came over. After Du Jian left, if I continue to use him as the director of the Party and Government Office, do you think he hates me or is he grateful to me?"
Chen Dan smiled and said, "I just like to see how you look when you are confident; but if Du Jian leaves, can you really be a secretary?"
"Who knows this?" Chen Huai stood up with his arms around Chen Dan's waist and said, "Let's go back, it's getting late..."
The road was not far, only more than 200 meters away. Chen Dan walked back intimately with Chen Huai's arm.
On the way, Chen Dan couldn't help but talk about the 20,000 yuan given by Yang Haipeng: "Yang Haipeng is so generous. He stuffed the envelope. I was really shocked. Is it really profitable to make steel?"
"It's very profitable. Their company can make about 300,000 yuan this month. Compared to before, it's quite considerable," Chen Huai smiled, "But I don't need him to give me money, it's not that I'm very honest. Speaking of which, I value him and Zhao Dong. If they want them to play a core role in my circle, they must give them enough respect. Some relationships cannot be maintained by trading power and money..."
"Circle?" Chen Dan asked in confusion.
"Yes, it's the circle," Chen Huai said. "The knowledge in the officialdom is all in this circle. Why can I be transcendent in Meixi Town? It's not that I have the courage to shock the world and make ghosts cry, but just because I am the secretary of the new municipal party committee. Others have other people's circles, and big circles are surrounded by small circles. I want to develop in my career, and I also need my circle."
"In addition to Zhao Dong, Yang Haipeng, and Guo Quan, you used He Yuelian and said you didn't plan to kick Huang Xinliang away. Do you also want to pull them into your circle?" Chen Dan thought of a lot of things at this time and asked.
"It depends on the situation. I have said that I have no obsession with cleanliness. I only need someone who can do things and can do things." Chen Huai said.
"Then so am I?" Chen Dan asked.
"No, you are not in any circle," Chen Huai stopped, hugged Chen Dan's body into his arms, and said, "You are my lover..."
"..." Listening to Chen Huai's words, Chen Dan felt indescribable sweetness in her heart, but she still thought clearly about what He Yuelian said to her: The man in front of her is not what she deserves, nor is she able to hold on. She did not leave Chen Huai's arms, looked up at Chen Huai's increasingly obsessed eyes, and shook her head firmly, "I don't want to get so much. Let me stay in your circle, and I will be satisfied..."
"Fool." Chen Huai smiled and pinched Chen Dan's nose. The weather was a little cold, so he continued to walk back.
Chen Mingde and Tan Qiping went to Donghua to take high positions one after another, and they were not powerful, but Chen Mingde was almost ruined. Although Tan Qiping took office, he was cautious and did not dare to make any big moves at the beginning of getting off the car. After all, there was no one below who could do things and help to spread the situation. No matter how outstanding Chen Huai did in Meixi Town, the situation was still a little smaller.
When Chen Huai considered his own development, he also deeply realized this: not only need someone above, but also someone below.
Perhaps many people are still excited about being able to squeeze into the circle of the municipal party secretary; Chen Huai is far from satisfied with this. Even if he does not take out his identity as a child of the Song family, as a member of the circle of the municipal party secretary, Chen Huai also wants to have his own circle.
In this way, even if Tan Qiping knew what his previous virtue was from other channels and wanted to squeeze him out of the circle, he would not have to be too embarrassed. Even if Tan Qiping neglected him, it was unlikely that he would suppress him. If he could have his own circle, he could continue to do things...
