Chapter 12 Chapter Eleven

fifty two Huang Jiangbei didn't go directly to Daren's house.It is rare to walk alone on the streets in the middle of the night in Linzhong County. Tonight, a glass of water and wine actually did two things that are not big and not small. A little flustered, but he was still happy.In this county town, only the County Department Store opposite the Drum Tower is considered a new building. At this moment, there are only some snack bars with dazzling incandescent lights, doing business in the uncrowded night market.Looking at those old-fashioned residential houses that were crowded and crowded in the dark night, with uneven heights and even quite a few crooked ones, Huang Jiangbei suddenly felt an inexplicable surge in his heart, burning hotly all over his body.Now, as long as he needs, as long as he wants, with a phone call and a greeting, he can mobilize all the police stations, neighborhood committees, and defense teams here to knock on all the doors, light up the lights in all the windows, and call on all the people to rush to a certain embankment. Or a certain fire scene, or gather on the central street to stand by, so that the alleys are empty, the alleys are empty, and the night is not dark.But a few days ago, to this city and this county, he was just an ordinary resident working outside the city.A few days ago, I came back to visit relatives, took a vegetable basket, went to the vegetable market with Shang Bing to buy vegetables, and squeezed through the crowd. Who would have thought that he would become their mayor in a few days?I have the right to make them move. I can make the mountains behind this city and four counties shake.Facing them, what kind of responsibility do I really have to take?What kind of trace can I leave on this land?What can I command half a million people to do?Oh, the wonderful night, the night that showed him opportunities and possibilities everywhere...

Suddenly, he saw Tian Manfang.At this time, he walked to the back of a large vegetable market, not too far from Shao Da's house, and suddenly saw Tian Manfang standing at the entrance of a small alley.Not far behind, parked her blue Mazda. Although Huang Jiangbei was surprised, his first intuition told him that this well-known woman with different opinions was specially detoured here to wait for him.Although he felt that her "persistence" approach was too much, but to be honest, he was very happy to see this plump, energetic, and especially well-dressed woman again.Because there is nothing else in the way.

Yes, my head is still a little dizzy. "I happened to pass by here too... I didn't expect to meet you here." Tian Manfang greeted her. Huang Jiangbei smiled and said, "Really? That's such a coincidence." He didn't expose her lying.It doesn't matter. "Is it your own car? It's beautiful." "Second-hand goods are quite cheap. I own one, which is more convenient." "Modern tone." "What era is it? Mayor Huang, I really want to thank you today." "Thank you. It is the responsibility of every cadre in Zhangtai to put Wanfang into operation as soon as possible."

"I don't know if I should say something or not..." "As long as you don't ask me to borrow money for you again, you can say anything else!" Tian Manfang hesitated for a moment: "Get in my car, I'll give you a ride, tell me in the car, okay?" "Do you really have a long story to say? If that's the case, let's talk another day. Okay?" Huang Jiangbei didn't want to get into her car.Just now, in front of Fang and Qu, he had expressed that he didn't want her to drive him.Although this is only a trivial matter, he thinks it is better to be cautious.Boring people spread boring words, and sometimes they can cause a lot of boring troubles.

"No, no, I only have one sentence." "Please say." "Then forgive me. I think you should let our President Ge come to tonight's reception today...You let me participate..." "Is there anything wrong with that?" "You'd better explain it to Mr. Ge..." "thanks for your reminder." "Am I too arrogant to teach the mayor a lesson?" "The mayor can also be taught a lesson. Welcome to teach me a lot in the future." "real?" "real." "I think it's not out of negligence that you let me attend this reception today, but because of some kind of need...".

"Don't complicate things. Ge is always my teacher. He is not in good health. I just want to reduce his social activities..." "Then I'll be overwhelmed. But it's best that you take some time to say hello to Mr. Ge. Some people don't care about this kind of thing, and some people still care..." "thanks." Tian Manfang looked at her watch: "Oh, it's too late. Can I take up a little more of your time?" Huang Jiangbei shook his head slowly, and did not agree to her request. But early the next morning, when Huang Jiangbei returned to the city, the silence in front of the city government building was only the soft sound of mist passing through the treetops, he saw Tian Manfang already standing at the black iron gate of the city government compound waiting for him.

Tian Manfang didn't sleep all night last night.She asked herself to calm down, but she couldn't. No, you have to be calm, calm, calm.But she was still excited.Barefoot, walking back and forth on the carpet.She warned herself that the frequency of contact must be slowed down, not to be rushed, and not to interfere with his normal work.He is new here, so he must be very busy, so don't make people hate him, haste makes waste.Not to mention lashing the whip blindly, leading to the opposite.Now this head is opened quite well, not so good.It can now be concluded that he is a man of integrity.This is too important.But just knowing this is not enough...he should also be considered courageous.Knowing this is not enough... He really wants to accomplish a few things in Zhangtai, not just to "protect himself and wait for promotion".This is also very important.But it's not enough... All of these things added together, it can still be said that it is not enough, not enough... There are still many gaps.For example, about his political background (in a certain way, this is more important than other situations); for example, about his level of strategy, administrative means, knowledge structure, and so on.Can you bet on him?Freezing three feet is not a day's cold, it is not a day's cold!She repeatedly told herself to be calm.But she still came, in an early morning when no one would disturb him and her.

fifty three As soon as he entered Huang Jiangbei's office, before Huang Jiangbei could stop him, Tian Manfang picked up the two thermos bottles on the coffee table, and went downstairs to turn on the water.After a while, the boiling water came back, and he was busy making tea for Huang Jiangbei as well as a cup of tea for himself; then he took off his coat and was about to tidy up the somewhat messy office. Huang Jiangbei hurriedly said: "Deputy Manager Tian, ​​how can this be possible? Let it go, let it go, let it go quickly." Tian Manfang smiled: "Didn't you hear anyone say that this Tian Manfang was born as a maid? Why are you being polite to me?" After saying this, she turned around a few times and came down. The old office really had a new look. "Well, transfer me to you as a cleaning lady?"

Huang Jiangbei was a little cautious for a while: "Don't be kidding, sit down..." Tian Manfang finally adjusted the positions of several leather armchairs, stood far away, looked at the layout of the entire office, then picked up a cup of tea, and sat down in the chair farthest from Huang Jiangbei. At this time, Huang Jiangbei suddenly felt that compared with the Tian Manfang he saw last night, today's Tian Manfang seemed to be completely different.Tight suit skirts were replaced by dark floor-length tweed skirts.The large lapel dual-purpose shirt originally worn as company work clothes was also replaced by the latest loose-style light-colored linen mid-length jacket; inside the jacket was a high-end three-lapel sweater with beige gray lining On the top, there are some milky white horizontal strips.This made her, who was originally slender and plump, look elegant and noble, not lacking in the kind of eye-catching she deliberately pursued.Of course, we also have to mention the pair of black pointed toe mid-cut leather boots on her feet, which added a bit of rare heroism to her delicate plumpness typical of mature women. gas.

People only know that what men want from women is beauty and tenderness, but they don't know that women's maturity and fortitude can also "capture" a large number of men.History makes men play the leading role in society today, and this kind of leading role often makes their lives very, very tired, and they have to hold on even when they are tired.There are many ways to relieve the burden attached to this social role, and they vary from person to person.But many bend their weary bodies toward women, begging for tender caresses (expressed on the explicit level) and protection from fortitude (restlessness on the hidden level).Sometimes this kind of protection, even if it only appears for a minute, can make the man who is extremely tired recover excellently.Of course, this kind of asylum is also based on the premise that it does not hurt the self-esteem of the man. This is the patriarchal system.Why am I facing this person in front of me, thinking about these things?Could it be that the person in front of me is a special case of Qingli, gentleness and fortitude?Huang Jiangbei thought so abruptly during the moment of staring.

This staring stare may have taken a few more seconds.When Huang Jiangbei realized this and hurriedly looked away, he already felt a little uncomfortable.On the contrary, Tian Manfang, who had long been accustomed to men's gaze, seemed much calmer. Huang Jiangbei hurriedly said, "Drink tea...drink tea...what do you want to talk to me about..." Tian Manfang lowered her head: "I'm sorry to bother you again..." "I already have some big arrangements for activities in the morning. I'm afraid I won't be able to talk about it today." "I won't take up too much of your time, don't rush me away." "I don't mean that. But...can we cut to the chase?" "Mayor Huang, how long...how long can you stay in our Zhangtai? What's the matter, why are you laughing?" "A leading comrade asked me the same question yesterday. I laughed at how your level is so high. You asked the same question as that leading comrade." "Don't be sarcastic." "I'm telling the truth. But I'm going to tell you that you asked a question that I don't even know where the answer is." "No way... You must have a plan. Do it for a long time, and you must make a name for yourself; or, like some comrades, come down and hang up a job to be gilded, stay for a year or so, and take pictures. Just slap your ass and go." "Tian Manfang, did you say something like that? You have to go over the mayor's file when you enter the door, dig out his old background, aren't you a bit too that?" "If you really came to gilt, I won't talk to you." "threaten me?" "Don't dare." "You know our cadre system. Our fate is in the hands of the higher-level organization department. I said that I can stay in Zhangtai for ten or twenty years. Does it work? That's what I said, do you believe it?" "I believe everything you say..." "Gullibility is the most taboo thing for women and officials. Haven't you heard this teaching?" "Whose teaching? From the great leader Chairman Mao?" Huang Jiangbei laughed: "The old man doesn't care about such bad things!" Tian Manfang became serious: "Over the years, Zhangtai has changed many secretaries and mayors, and the two who have stayed the longest are two people. One is the current Deputy Governor Tian. He really worked here for ten or twenty years. ;The other one is the current Secretary Lin, who hasn't moved since the beginning. The others, they just change back and forth like a revolving lantern..." Huang Jiangbei took a sip of his tea and said sincerely: "Comrade Manfang, we urgently need everyone's sincere cooperation to run the Zhangtai business well. It is my top priority as the acting mayor to do a good job for Wanfang Company. Fang has invested hundreds of millions of dollars, but so far we haven’t heard anything. Whether we can run Wanfang Company well or not has almost become one of the most important criteria for evaluating the performance of the mayor of Zhangtai City. We are sent here to As for how to do a good job in Zhangtai, as for our individual abilities and levels may vary, but we still have sufficient determination to do a good job in Zhangtai. I advise you not to have any doubts about this. I can tell you this, If you can come up with a really effective plan to transform Wanfang Company, I would like to listen to your discussion, it doesn’t matter how long it takes. You said you want to find some experts to discuss together, and I will find it. Where do you talk about it? , I'm going to pack the best hotel suite..." He said, took out a proof copy of the newspaper from the drawer, and handed it to Tian Manfang. "Look, this is a big reward notice that I want to post on the front page of Zhangtai Daily. I will get a big reward of one million yuan and ask for a feasible plan to transform Wanfang Company. If you don't want the bonus, I will give you a set of three rooms. The house in the first hall and the Santana car give Zhangtai City the title of lifelong honorary citizen. If you are a farmer, the whole family’s household registration will be converted to non-agricultural immediately. If you are a worker, you will be promoted immediately. If the trial plan is effective, I will immediately join the board of directors of Wanfang Company..." Tian Manfang took the copy and glanced at it briefly, and said with a wry smile: "If I poured cold water on you, you wouldn't let me go, would you?" Huang Jiangbei said, "Splash." Tian Manfang hesitated for a while: "Forget it...don't splash..." Huang Jiangbei smiled and said, "What's going on? Tell me quickly." Tian Manfang raised her head: "Do you really think that Zhangtai's problem and Wanfang's problem are just a lack of clever solutions? China does not lack capable people, and Zhangtai does not lack capable people. It has been proved by many top 100 cities and 100 counties I can give you a hundred sets of effective plans, let alone learn them all, just learn one-tenth or one-hundredth of them. Zhangtai City will not be reduced to where it is today. I need your help Come to save lives. Wanfang has already produced the Wanfang brand car that was difficult to produce. With all due respect, if you are like other people, playing this kind of reward announcement, formalistic things, It can be lively for a while, and you can go to work briefings to make your superiors feel that you, Huang Jiangbei, are not idle in Zhangtai, and you are very busy, but that’s all, it will not bring you any practical effect. What Zhangtai lacks is not Lively, not a plan, Zhangtai is already lively enough, dead and alive, what else is needed? What it needs now is real change. And your method can't bring about any real change..." Huang Jiangbei smiled slightly: "Really?" "If you don't believe me, let's wait and see." Tian Manfang stood up after speaking. "What, are you leaving now?" "I'm not interested in big prize announcements." "Then tell me, what can be done to make a real change?" "Really want to hear it?" "You are quite a comrade." "Since Mr. Mayor really wants to hear it, I might as well say a little bit of shame. I'm just a little radish in Wanfang Company. I don't care about how Zhangtai City changes, and I shouldn't care. As for Wanfang Company... It's very simple to say, and it depends on whether you, the mayor, have the courage to do it. In a word, resign all the senior employees surnamed Tian in the company, and Wanfang's affairs will be handled easily. Of course, First of all, we must get rid of that woman named Tian Manfang." Huang Jiangbei was silent for a while: "It's very humorous when you say that, but I'm rather rigid, and I don't like people playing that kind of boring little humor when discussing important issues with me." Tian Manfang stood up suddenly: "What I just said made you feel bored? Is it ridiculous? I'm so sorry...but I want to cry!" "I'm sorry, can you explain to me why Wanfang Company can only be run well if all comrades surnamed Tian are removed from the senior staff, and why you, the deputy general manager surnamed Tian, ​​have to be dismissed first?" "You really don't understand the reason here?" "Maybe I'm too ignorant. I don't remember any successful entrepreneur in ancient and modern China and abroad who said that the surname of the senior management of the company will have a major impact on the operation of the company. I have never been interested in other people's surnames." interest……" Tian Manfang sneered: "Not necessarily. It seems that someone sent you a roster of senior staff of Wanfang Company yesterday. You saw that among the senior staff of Wanfang, there are so many people with the surname Tian. Let the person next to you with the surname Xia’s senior assistant went to check. You still expressed a high degree of concern about the last names of the senior staff of Wanfang Company.” "You are very good at intelligence. Are you Tian Manfang spying on me?" "Why should I monitor you? I sent someone to give you that roster." Huang Jiangbei asked himself to ask calmly, "Why?" Tian Manfang replied straightforwardly: "I just hope you can declare war on this abnormal situation..." "Go on." Tian Manfang hesitated for a moment, got up and opened the door leading to the secretary's room outside, and took a look.There are people outside.Secretary Xiao Gao has come, and he is sorting old newspapers there.Huang Jiangbei immediately understood her intentions, so he went to the door and said, "Xiao Gao, please go to the confidential room to see if there are any new telegrams." Xiao Gao agreed and left immediately.Huang Jiangbei walked to the door and said to Tian Manfang, "Tell me." Tian Manfang sorted out what she wanted to say a little bit, and said in a tone that she thought was more appropriate: "Someone wants to turn Wanfang Company into his private business, his personal coffers..." Huang Jiangbei raised his eyebrows: "Who?" Tian Manfang was speechless. "Who the hell?" "I've said too much..." "I have sent my secretary Xiao Gao away, and now only you and I are left in this room. You comrade can't hope that I will spend myself again, let this empty room listen to your statement. Tell me, who is turning Wanfang into his private enterprise and personal coffers?" "I...it's me, Tian Manfang... okay? Can I smoke a cigarette?" She tremblingly took out a slender Kun cigarette from the cigarette case, and when she reached for the matches on the table, Huang Jiangbei was stunned. Hold down the match to prevent her from lighting a cigarette.But she stubbornly found another very delicate gold shell lighter from her small leather bag, and lit the cigarette. Only took a breath.static field.After a long while, Huang Jiangbei said: "I think we should find another time to talk in detail. What do you think? Do you have my office phone number? This is my home phone number. I will be waiting for your call anytime." Tian Manfang sat still for a while, then suddenly extinguished the cigarette, picked up the phone number Huang Jiangbei had given her, picked up her coat and purse, turned her head and ran out of the office.As soon as she ran out, Huang Jiangbei immediately picked up the phone and asked Xia Zhiyuan to come over immediately.When Xia Zhiyuan was hurrying towards Huang Jiangbei's office with a folder in his hand, he happened to see Tian Manfang who was also hurrying down the stairs walking towards the elevator in the corridor. "Tian Manfang came to you?" Xia Zhiyuan put some documents for Huang Jiangbei's review on the particularly spacious desk in front of Huang Jiangbei, and at the same time pretended to be careless, and asked. "Ah, what's the matter?" "I warned you, stay away from this woman!" "She's here to talk about work..." "Look at her outfit, is she here to talk about work?" "Don't be bored, what are your plans for this morning?" "Tell me first, why did you call Tian Manfang to the office early in the morning?" "Aren't you a little too much?" "Excessive? Do you know what kind of person this Tian Manfang is?" "Here it goes again. Stop talking to me about babysitters and non-nanny..." "It's not that I look down on her poor background. Dear Mayor Huang, when I was nine years old, Xia Zhiyuan followed my old mother to pick up cinders on the railway. Do you think I can look down on my class brothers who came from a poor background? What I want you to pay attention to is , Tian Manfang's personality. Don't look at her in her thirties, her round face looks like a sweet girl when she smiles, and she has a bag of stinky fermented bean curd in her heart! Didn't you hear that? Officially Before Dong Xiujuan was announced as the mayor, she yelled louder than anyone else, saying that Dong Xiujuan was uneducated and only knew how to work hard and stupidly, so she couldn't be the mayor at all. It seemed that she was the only one who could be the mayor. But once the appointment was announced , Her intimacy with Dong Xiujuan came to pester her every day. In the first month, she hardly left her home. Helped Dong Xiujuan to find someone to renovate the house, helped Dong Xiujuan’s son to transfer to a key middle school, and went to the labor service in person. The market helped Dong Xiujuan find a housekeeper, accompanied Dong Xiujuan to a beauty salon to have her hair done, and went to the China World Trade Center to pick out a coat... This office used to belong to Dong Xiujuan, and everything here was arranged with the help of Tian Manfang The leather armchair, the boss's table, and the large standing vase imitating Kangxi famille rose Baizi Xilian, and the eight-foot central hall vertical scroll, were all picked out by her from the old antique shop of Liulichang, Qianmen Street, Beijing by plane. That She was so strong that she only had to rush Dong Xiujuan, who was eight years older than her, to call her mother... Dong Xiujuan had never seen such a situation before, so she fell into the trap and kept saying good things about her. Within a few months, Let her become Wanfang's deputy general manager. When Dong Xiujuan has a problem, she scolds her more fiercely than anyone else. It seems that she, Tian, ​​has never thought that Dong Xiujuan is a good thing... Now She hurried up and turned around your brother again, be careful, be careful of this kind of woman who only eats the new leader. Be careful that one day she will rub you too and swallow you all!" Huang Jiangbei leaned back on the leather armchair with a smile, and asked, "What is your relationship with her? How do you know her so well... It seems like she and Shan Zhaoer are sisters..." "You're talking about it. She and Shan Zhao'er's family are cousins, and they call them cousins. When they were still in middle school in the morning, I used the time when I went back to Zhangtai during the winter and summer vacations to give her a lot of time. Two supplementary math and physics..." "Then, you hooked up with her smart and quiet little cousin, Shan Zhaoer, didn't you? There's no need to call someone else's cousin useless..." "Don't talk nonsense. Shan Zhaoer listened to this cousin's incitement, and she decided to resign and go to sea to run the big water restaurant for her because of the inappropriate cadres of the municipal party committee. I was really dizzy at the time, and Shan Zhao My son had a big quarrel, and the relationship has not been thawed until now... I heard that you called her in last night to represent Wanfang to the welcome reception held for you by the leaders of Linzhong County? What do you mean? Prepare Let her succeed Teacher Ge as Wanfang's general manager?" "Your news is not slow." "Master's wife called me early in the morning to ask about this matter. What do you mean?" "Of course I have intentions in this matter. The problem of Wanfang's leadership team is a big problem that must be solved. Teacher Ge's body and his too weak personality are both worrying. But at present, the problem of solving this team The timing of this issue is not yet ripe. Before I really make up my mind, I will definitely discuss it with you, let’s not talk about it today. It is decided that such a big matter as the Wanfang team must be reported to the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee for discussion and approval. It is not me who wants to do it alone. What can I do. Don't worry, even if I have a soft spot for Ms. Tian, ​​there is nothing I can do. Do you still have doubts or worries?" "What are you calling me in such a hurry for?" "Forget it, it's all right...". "What's the matter, let's argue with you, don't you even call it work?" "I originally wanted you to get to know Tian Manfang. It seems that it is not appropriate for you to do this... You have too many preconceptions about her." "I don't think it's appropriate either." "Zhiyuan, thank you for always arguing with me like this..." "It's all right. Anyway, I'll just argue with you for a year, and I won't do it for one more day." "Have you gone to see Zheng Yanzhang?" "Looked for. Did not find." "Not found? Why?" "I just can't find him. I'm also surprised." "Hiding, or let someone take it away?" "It seems to be hiding." "How do you know that you are hiding instead of being taken away by someone?" "I managed to meet his little assistant last night. Judging from the situation that little assistant talked about, Zheng seems to be avoiding us and doesn't want to see us...do you want to find him?" Huang Jiangbei thought for a while and replied, "Let's hold off for a few days...don't push him, it's counterproductive." "What progress has Secretary Lin made? I heard that the memorial service couldn't be held that day... This full stop doesn't seem to be so easy to draw..." "Where is the sorrow? Leave the heart and go to autumn. Even if the plantain doesn't rain, it's still whizzing..." "What are you mumbling about?" Huang Jiangbei sighed softly and stopped speaking.
