The Boeing 747 flight from Hong Kong to Yinzhou arrived at Yinzhou International Airport one hour and three minutes late. Qin Sisi and Ouyang Moqian on the plane finally stretched their brows, smiled at each other, and let go of their tightly held hands.This flight really frightened them. When it was transiting to the capital Beijing, the plane suddenly encountered a strong turbulence and landed several times without landing.In the huge turbulence, Qin Sisi, who had a strong sense of fear of the plane, was the first to scream. Her scream frightened Ouyang Moqian, and made the panicked passengers suddenly realize the danger of death.Indeed, at that moment, everyone in the cabin probably thought of the word death.In desperation, Ouyang Moqian covered Qin Sisi's mouth with all his strength, and held her tightly in his arms, while comforting her constantly: "Don't be afraid, Sisi, nothing will happen. If you encounter some air currents, you will be fine soon." Alright." While gesturing to the stewardess with her eyes, she asked her to find a way to calm down the woman in front, because that woman's scream was more terrifying than Sisi's, and it made Sisi's scream that had just subsided louder again, The two became a duet!No matter how much he comforted her, Sisi just refused to settle down.

After the false alarm, Sisi collapsed and lay motionless in his arms.Ouyang Moqian's arms around his wife trembled a little. He hadn't hugged Sisi like this for a long time. For a moment, he seemed to feel that he was back in the period of passionate love again. A warmth could not help flowing between his palms, slowly watching them.This is really a long-lost feeling, very beautiful, but also very strange.Ouyang Moqian trembled secretly. When returning to China this time, Ouyang Moqian didn't intend to bring Qin Sisi back at the beginning. He wanted to fly directly from Los Angeles to Beijing, then transfer to Yinzhou, the provincial capital, and go back after talking with the people in Heyang.No, Sisi is determined to come, she said that she has not seen her parents for two years, four months and six days, if she is not allowed to see her parents again, she will jump into the sea!Jumping into the sea is of course a joke. Whenever Sisi gets angry, she will use jumping into the sea to scare him. Ouyang Moqian is also used to this word, and said with a smile: "Baby, don't jump into the sea. If you really do, I'll go back." How can I tell the old man that he hasn't thrown me into the Yellow River to feed the fish?" "It's good if you know." Sisi proudly snorted on the other end of the phone, and then said: "You fly to Hong Kong first, I happen to have ten I will spend ten days on my parents." No way, Ouyang Moqian can only follow his wife's order, call the Hong Kong company, and slightly adjust his domestic itinerary one time.But in his heart, he really didn't want to bring her here.He was afraid that letting Sisi know something would cause trouble.

The journey without danger is finally over.As soon as she got off the plane, Sisi called: "I'm back, Yinzhou, my hometown!" Ouyang Moqian hurriedly bumped her with his elbow, reminding her not to lose her composure all the time, causing people to look at them with strange eyes .Sisi pouted: "What are you afraid of, this is my hometown, I can do whatever I want!" Ouyang Moqian smiled wryly: "Let's go, beauty, the old man must have been waiting a long time ago." In the waiting hall, the two looked around for a while, but they didn't see the old man.Strange, the old man promised to pick up the plane in person, why didn't he come?Just wondering, Zhou Yican, the female mayor of Heyang City, accompanied by the director of the Provincial Western Development Office and Ms. Mai Rui, the representative of Ruite Company in Northwest China, came over with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Ouyang, Miss Qin, you have worked hard all the way. It's gone." Ouyang Moqian glanced at Zhou Yican, and felt that she was more beautiful and charming than the last time we met.

"Where's my dad, where's my dad?" Before Ouyang Moqian could say a word to Zhou Yican, Qin Sisi called out again. She stood on tiptoe, looked over Zhou Yican's head, and looked around eagerly. "I'm sorry, Ms. Qin, your father has something to do and couldn't come to the airport. He's waiting for you in Heyang." Zhou Yi said with a smile. "What, Heyang, what do you want me to do in Heyang?" Qin Sisi looked around unwillingly while speaking.At this moment, her desire to see her father was so strong, so impatient.She looked around for a long time, but unfortunately, she still couldn't see the shadow of her father Qin Xiyue.

Ouyang Moqian tugged at the corner of her clothes, and whispered: "Let's go, Sisi, don't let people laugh at you." "I'm looking for my dad, what's anyone else's business?" The three of them were very embarrassed.Although Zhou Yican had heard before that the daughter of a master Qin expert had a weird temper and extreme personality, she never expected that she would be so disregarding etiquette.Due to Ouyang Moqian's special status, he could only say with a smile on his face, "Miss Qin misses her father very much, I understand, but you have to work hard, and you will be able to see your father after another four hours' drive." Oh my god, it's still four hours, I'm going to collapse!" Crashed to collapsed, Qin Sisi finally listened to Ouyang's persuasion, and followed Zhou Yican and the others to go out.When she was about to get in the car, she changed her mind again: "No, I have to go to see my mother first, and take me home right away." Ouyang Moqian finally darkened his face: "Sisi, this is not a trip, this is a talk For official business, you should respect other people's arrangements." "I have to respect you and respect, I don't care about it, I want to go home." Qin Sisi's self-willed energy came up again, because she didn't see her father, she suddenly became very upset Bad.This is a child spoiled by her father. Although she is married, her young lady's temper has not changed at all.

Sisi's parents live in Yinzhou, the provincial capital, on the north side of the Yellow River, in the house left by her grandmother.Dad went to Heyang, and there were only mother and nanny at home. She couldn't pass through the provincial capital without entering the house, and her mother was still ill. Ouyang Moqian was stumped, he was a person with etiquette above his habits, especially after he joined Ruite Company and became a member of the senior management, he valued business etiquette more than anything else.Besides, the cooperation with Heyang this time has a lot to do with it, and he can't cause any unhappiness over trivial matters.Now that Heyang has made an arrangement, he has to obey.This time, it was the first time that he was negotiating with a domestic government department on behalf of Ritter, so he should pay more attention to the details.

"How about that, I will accompany Miss Qin home, you go first, otherwise Secretary Qiang and the others should be in a hurry." Miss Mai Rui, who had been silent all this time, spoke.Mai Rui is very young, almost a few years younger than Sisi, good-looking, even more attractive than Sisi, plus she is naturally flirtatious, making people think she is a public relations lady from somewhere.Ouyang Moqian was secretly startled when he saw that Mai Ruiwang Sisi's eyes were a little special, but he didn't show it on his face.After thinking for a few seconds, Ouyang Moqian was about to nod, but Qin Sisi grabbed his arm and said, "No, husband, I want you to go with me." Mai Rui's eyes darkened, and he pretended to straighten his hair, avoiding his eyes.

"Sisi, don't be childish, okay? This is work, not at home." Ouyang Moqian was upset. "Hmph, work, always press me with work, as if I don't have a job." After finishing speaking, she got into Mai Rui's car and ignored Ouyang.Ouyang pondered for a moment, and said to Zhou Yican: "Mayor Zhou, let's go and leave her alone." Zhou Yican seemed a little hesitant, but when he thought that there were dozens of people waiting in Heyang, he pretended to be relaxed and joking. Said: "I'm really sorry, you and your husband were separated as soon as you got off the plane." Ouyang said "Oh" lightly, thinking that the officials in the mainland are really different. The deep meaning makes people think over and over again.For example, at this moment, you have clearly made up your mind and made arrangements for you, but you have to put on an understatement and carelessness.He looked at the Audi car that was gradually going away, and wanted to say something, but he was speechless, so he shook his head with a wry smile.

When the car started, Zhou Yican called Heyang and said to Director Zeng of the reception office: "The guest has already left, tell Secretary Qiang that everything is fine." Director Zeng on the other end of the phone seemed to have something to say, but Hesitate, don't speak.Zhou Yican was also not good, holding the phone all the time, saying that we are on our way, and then hung up. The scenery of Yinzhou came rushing forward. Through the car window, Ouyang Moqian saw Zhutian poplar rushing by on both sides of the expressway, as well as the oily green crops, and the faint buildings in the distance.I remember the first time he came to Yinzhou, there was no expressway yet, the road from the provincial capital to the airport passed through a mountain range called Tianxian Mountain, the road was rugged, the surroundings were desolate, and there was no green in sight.At that time, he wondered, how could such a beautiful woman like Sisi be born in such a withered place?Later he learned that the Yellow River nourishes people.Yinzhou is the second provincial capital city in China where the Yellow River passes through the city. Although the city is small, it stands by the mountains and lives next to the river, which adds a bit of the water color of the south of the Yangtze River.The girls in Yinzhou, who grew up drinking the water of the Yellow River, are really beauties.Ten years have passed in a flash, and it is unexpected that Tianxian Mountain, which was barren of grass in those days, is actually covered with green.Under the bright sunshine, Ouyang Moqian saw the clusters of water jets spraying from the mountainside, and then he realized that this is an artificial green forest, and those white water pipes that climbed to the top of the mountain may be what Miss Murray told him The project of diverting water up the mountain.It seems that Yinzhou has spent a lot of effort to attract investment and beautify the environment.

When the car turned over the viaduct and was about to drive onto the expressway leading to Heyang, Ouyang Moqian suddenly saw Mai Rui's Audi following up.At first he wasn't sure, he suspected that he had seen the wrong car, but when he received a call from Mai Rui, he was convinced that Sisi had changed again.Mai Rui said that after much deliberation, Sisi decided to see her father first, so they had no choice but to turn around and follow. Ouyang sighed and closed the phone without a word. Zhou Yican in the car also seemed preoccupied.Zhou Yican came to welcome Ouyang Moqian on behalf of the Heyang Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government this time to attract investment.Heyang is located in a remote area in the northwest. Industrial enterprises have been in a downturn these years. The leading and backbone enterprise Hehua Group has been in a state of paralysis for three years. Other small and medium-sized enterprises are also half dead. The reform of state-owned enterprises has encountered bottlenecks. Unable to break through.The development of the private economy is also affected by resources, technology, and technological content, so it cannot become an important branch of the local economy for a while.Heyang's economy has encountered unprecedented difficulties. As the mayor of the city, the burden on her is extremely heavy, and the pressure is also increasing.Fortunately, at this time, the world-renowned Ruite Company threw a hydrangea to Heyang, and the cooperation between Ruite Company and Heyang became extremely important.If this golden phoenix can be attracted to build a nest in Heyang, it will give a qualitative boost to Heyang's economy.

However, whether he can sign a contract with Ritter Company and attract an investment of one billion yuan, Zhou Yichan still has no idea.Although both sides had a pleasant conversation in the first two contacts, and Ritter also showed a strong desire, but this is a big investment, involving many details, before the matter is finalized, Zhou Yican dare not have the slightest optimism and to the effect. Seeing that Zhou Yican was silent, Ouyang Moqian turned on his laptop and wanted to send "Yi Meier" to the company headquarters.Compared with his wife Qin Sisi, the young Ouyang Moqian is more like a workaholic, taking work wherever he goes.Zhou Yican once made a joke with Ouyang: "If our government staff can be as dedicated as you, our work efficiency will be greatly improved." That was the first time she came into contact with Ouyang, and it was also in the car. Infected by a certain spirit displayed by Ouyang, she said this half seriously and half sighing.At that time, Ouyang Moqian raised his head with a smile, and replied in a joking tone: "The government workers you mentioned, they have iron rice bowls, and they can guarantee their income in drought and flood. This is probably the most superior in the world. How dare I compare with them?" When Zhou Yican heard it, he felt that Ouyang stabbed him somewhere.Later, she also tried to carry out some efficiency reforms in government departments, but it was very difficult.Once the benefits are locked into a lifelong enjoyment by a certain system, it is a thankless thing to try to stimulate people's initiative or dedication. As soon as the mailbox was opened, a letter jumped in.Ouyang blushed when he saw it, and his heart was pounding.There are only two short lines on the letter: miss you, miss you crazily.Then there are two red hearts that dance together together.Ouyang hurriedly closed the mailbox, blushed and calmed down his disturbed mood for a while, and was about to do another operation when he suddenly found that Mayor Zhou Yican was secretly looking at him with a strange look.In fact, Zhou Yican had been staring at him for a long time, but he didn't pay attention.Although Zhou Yican's appearance is soft and beautiful, her eyes are a bit sharp, which makes him very uncomfortable, and also makes him suddenly feel a little wary of her. The car arrived at Heyang Hotel at four o'clock in the afternoon, nearly two hours later than originally planned.When Zhou Yican and the others got out of the car, the city leaders who were ordered to attend the welcome ceremony couldn't sit still any longer. They walked out of the VIP building of the hotel in twos and threes, chatting by the garden downstairs.Seeing the mayor coming, he ran upstairs in a panic.This scene hurt Zhou Yican's eyes, subconsciously, he looked at Ouyang again, the young and handsome Ouyang didn't seem to care about it, he didn't seem to know that this large group of people came just for him, just for him wait for him.He hurriedly greeted Sisi who got off from another car. When Sisi got out of the car, she immediately walked over with a smile, and said softly, "Husband, don't you blame me?"Sisi has such a character, moody and unpredictable, women in their thirties are like little girls all day long.After saying a few words, Ouyang Moqian cast his eyes on Miss Mai Rui.Today's Mai Rui is particularly eye-catching, wearing a violet skirt to set off her slender figure, and her shiny black hair hangs down on her shoulders, covering half of her face a bit blurred.Ouyang Moqian glanced at her, and was infected by the hazy aura on her body. His heart moved slightly, and just as he was about to say something, he saw Mai Rui's eyes looking over provocatively, half angry and half resentful stare at her.That gaze is both familiar and unfamiliar, but at this moment, it has a special meaning.Ouyang Moqian suddenly remembered the letter and the two hearts that were overlapping and beating, hurriedly avoided Mai Rui's gaze, and looked at the crowd in the distance.Mai Rui came over and imitated Sisi in a voice that couldn't be lowered: "Husband, don't you blame me?" Ouyang Moqian was startled, for fear that there would be an uncontrollable scene at this time.Fortunately, after learning this sentence, Mai Rui immediately became serious again. She said, "I didn't see Qiang Wei, so the agenda has probably changed." I hear they have made arrangements." Mai Rui left him and went to Zhou Yican's side, and when he passed him, he said coldly: "You really shouldn't have brought her here!" Ouyang Moqian There was a "bang" in my heart. A few minutes later, Zhou Yican led Ouyang and the others upstairs.She anxiously looked around for Director Zeng of the reception office.Just now, when she saw people walking around in the courtyard, she suddenly had a bad feeling, and this time she didn't see Director Zeng, this feeling was even stronger.But don't make any mistakes at this juncture!Just as I was thinking about it, I saw the secretary-general of the government come in a hurry, and he said, "It's not good, Mayor Zhou, something happened in Shaxian County, and Secretary Qiang and Representative Qin will not be able to come back for the time being." ."what? !Zhou Yican was startled and almost cried out. The incident happened around ten o'clock in the morning. At that time, Zhou Yican was in Yinzhou, the provincial capital. She didn't know that something happened here.Maybe Qiang Wei was afraid that she would be worried, or maybe it was out of other considerations. In short, he didn't tell her the truth, and informed the reception office and the secretariat: don't tell Mayor Zhou about the situation here, and let her go to the airport to pick her up as planned. people. Qiang Wei's thinking was too simple. He originally thought that as long as he arrived at the scene, the villagers besieging Qin Xiyue would disperse and the storm would subside.I didn't think about it, it was fine if he didn't come, as soon as he appeared, the conflict was immediately intensified, the villagers not only refused to let Qin Xiyue go, but also surrounded him three floors in and out.Later, someone came up with a bad idea, and the Sha County sent another group of policemen, which suddenly made the situation even more tense.Tudou, who took the lead in making troubles, put on an attitude that he was not afraid of death, and rushed to Qiang Wei as if risking his life, shouting hoarsely: "Catch us, if you have the ability, you can take us all away. I still don't believe that there is no us in the world." There is a way to survive!" Qiang Wei was about to concentrate on working with Tudou, when the dumb man who had been leaning on his crutches, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Tudou, don't reason with them, how can they have any reason in their hearts? Surround the car, if he is capable, he will grind a bloody road for our Hongshawo today!" As soon as Mr. Han spoke, the villagers immediately became courageous, and the sweet potato daughter-in-law and the seedlings joined forces and shouted In front of Qiangwei's car, he hugged the wheels. On the side of the police car that had just arrived, the situation was even worse. A few policemen were yelling at first, wanting to use their batons, but they didn't think about it. Two strong men hugged their waists, and the fat and round policemen couldn't move at all. up.Some restless people ran to the police car quickly, and turned off the screaming sirens and lights in a few strokes.At the same time, the men were fighting with the police, deliberately insulting them with swear words, trying to provoke them; at the same time, they signaled a few half-grown children to throw stones at the police cars.In an instant, the sunroof of the police car that had been used for less than half a year was smashed open by the children, and I couldn't bear to see it. Qiang Wei suppressed the anger in his heart, and said patiently: "Everyone listen to me, Representative Qin has an important foreign affairs event today, everyone let him go first, if there is any problem that cannot be solved, come to me Qiang Wei." It's useless!" Master Han cursed obstinately, and with a thump of the crutch, he said, "Aside from being greedy, what other skills do you have? Looking for you, looking for you, the thousands of us in Hongshawo will have to drink the northwest wind. "Qiang Wei knows that he can't compete with Mr. Han today. This old man is stronger than a camel in the desert. If he insists on fighting with you to the end, Representative Qin will not be able to take anything with him today. Qin Xiyue, a senior researcher at the Desert Research Institute, a national sand control expert, and a deputy to the Provincial People's Congress, was stopped by villagers on his way to Heyang.To get out of the desert from the experiment point, one must pass through Hongshawo. The villagers counted the time, and when Qin Xiyue's car drove over, it rushed out of the sand on both sides of the road, blocking the road. up.The villagers blocked Qin Xiyue because of the wells. During the spring planting, the county and the township jointly closed eleven wells in Hongshawo, sealing nearly a hundred acres of land. solve.The villagers finally found out that it was Qin Xiyue who came up with the idea of ​​shutting down wells and suppressing fields. As a representative, he wrote a case and submitted it to the meeting of the Provincial People's Congress. The eye well was filled in by the county.In the eleven wells, the wasted one million yuan was filled in with a "wow".Those tickets were all saved by the people of Hongshawo, and half of them were loaned by the credit union.Once the well was filled, the people from the credit union knew that the money would not be recovered, so they came to collect debts every day, just like the king of hell, asking for debts. In May, God has not shed a single teardrop. Far and near, the sun is burning, the skin is cracked by drought, and green smoke is rising in the desert all day long. How are you going to live this day?Since you won't let me live, I won't live anymore, so I'll make a fuss with you.Can't make trouble with the county's listing, and can't make trouble with a representative of Qin? "Let's detain Representative Qin and see if he's in a hurry!" Mr. Han had a bad idea, Tudou was stunned, and he really brought someone to kidnap Qin Xiyue. During Qiang Wei's time with Tudou, Qin Xiyue sat silently under a jujube tree and smoked.His face was gloomy, depressed, and even had a layer of rare anger.Sitting around him was a bunch of brightly colored little daughters-in-law, they were like a wall of flowers, tightly enveloping Qin Xiyue, they didn't scold or bury Qin Xiyue, on the contrary they asked this question enthusiastically That.One asked Mr. Qin if you were hot, and the other asked Mr. Qin if you were thirsty. Two of them even brought a thermos bottle and a new water cup from home to make tea for Mr. Qin.Qin Xiyue didn't say a word, from the moment he was "hijacked", he chose to remain silent.When the county magistrate of Sha County came with a large group of people, he ignored him and put on a cold face, which made the county magistrate very embarrassed.It wasn't until Qiang Wei appeared that Qin Xiyue had a smile on his face, but before he could say what he wanted to say, the scene was already in a mess and out of control.After doing this, Qin Xiyue has a better opinion of Qiang Wei.You were asked to solve the problem earlier, but you didn't solve it. You had to wait for the common people to make a fuss before you did your work humbly.What is the use of doing work at this time?Also, what he said to Qiang Wei was full of opinions.What you are facing now is not your subordinates, not the heads of the county and township, but the angry villagers, and the ordinary people who have vowed to seek justice from the government.You keep saying that you are the secretary of the municipal party committee, and you will come to you if you have any questions. Don't you mean to stir the fire in the hearts of ordinary people to the sky?Since you are the secretary of the municipal party committee and can solve problems, what did you do long ago?Don't you know all these questions?It was indeed Qin Xiyue who proposed shutting wells and pressing fields.Last year, he did one thing: Entrusted by the Provincial People's Congress, he led a team deep into the desert hinterland to investigate and understand the situation of groundwater exploitation.It was found that the extraction of groundwater in Sha County has far exceeded the estimates of professional departments in the province, especially in the hinterland of the desert, where the annual extraction has accounted for more than half of the entire basin.Only then did Qin Xiyue submit a special report to the Provincial People's Congress, recommending that Sha County take measures to close wells and reduce fields, on the one hand to slow down the exploitation of groundwater in the basin, and on the other hand to balance the water consumption of the entire basin.The proposal was successfully passed, and the Provincial People's Congress and the Provincial Government have also formed relevant documents.But in the process of implementation, it encountered great resistance.Needless to say, the villagers' conflicts, when the city and county levels implemented the measure of shutting down wells and reducing fields, they also did their own thing and laid a lot of ambushes.Especially in the case of compensation to villagers, the practice at the city and county levels is even more irritating.When Qin Xiyue came down this time, he was still ordered by the Provincial People's Congress to investigate the issue of compensation. Unexpectedly, the compensation clearly written in the red-headed documents of the Provincial People's Congress and the Provincial Government turned out to be empty words here!In addition to the resettlement funds and compensations that were in arrears at the time of immigration, the empty checks issued to farmers at the city and county levels finally made the farmers in Sha Township unbearable. Contradictions arise from this.Before Qin Xiyue could grasp the details, the villagers of Hongshawo Village took such drastic actions. The central government issued repeated orders, and the provincial government repeatedly emphasized, but at Qiangwei's place, they actually gave farmers IOUs again and again!Qin Xiyue thought, hated, and suddenly angrily rushed to the little driver who came to pick him up and said: "Take a pack of cigarettes, I want to smoke!" Qin Xiyue never smoked or drank alcohol. Most people have hobbies, but he didn't. .Today he really wanted to smoke it, so he smoked it vigorously!The little driver ran over in response.His car had been carried by the villagers into a sandpit, with three old ladies watching. Qin Xiyue was in a hurry while smoking, how anxious should Sisi be when he couldn't see him at the airport?Unexpectedly, after taking a few puffs, he suddenly coughed.The young daughters-in-law panicked and ran over to beat his back.Qin Xiyue stretched out his hand and waved it. After a long time of effort, he finally got the breath. Qiang Wei kept explaining to the villagers.In Qin Xiyue's mind, he was thinking about how to make suggestions to the Provincial People's Congress, and how to further investigate the arrears of compensation for farmers in Sha County and Heyang... Inside the Heyang Hotel, Zhou Yican was so anxious that his mouth was dry and he almost lost his position.People came to pick them up, but Qiang Wei and the others trapped the villagers in Hongshawo. Zhou Yican attaches great importance to this negotiation.She has been in Heyang for two years. As one of the few female mayors in the province, she has great ambitions for the position of mayor.From joining the work to the present, she has been longing to have a platform to give full play to her talents and skills.It's a pity that in the past in the provincial government, her life was too peaceful and monotonous, and she always felt that she couldn't exert her strength.Now that she is the mayor of a city, she certainly can't tolerate being mediocre anymore. She is eager to devote herself wholeheartedly, and also eager to do something big with passion. It's a pity that the environment in Heyang is too bad, which made her achieve almost nothing in two years!It's all because she thought He Yang was too good at the beginning and made a wrong judgment.Heyang is an ancient city, the city with the largest population and largest territory in the whole province. It governs two districts and four counties, with a population of nearly five million.This is among the current prefecture-level cities, and the country can also be ranked first.Moreover, Heyang is located in a traffic fortress and is the gateway of the Silk Road.The unique geographical location and long history and culture have added a lot of charm to Heyang, coupled with the unique stability of agricultural cities and the unique status of a commodity grain base, Heyang has always been a base for training and training cadres.The Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government have had three consecutive leadership teams, each of which must have someone from Heyang.At present, among the four major teams in the province, five have worked in Heyang.Zhou Yican resolutely chose Heyang based on these analyses.Unexpectedly, when I arrived in Heyang, I realized that the charm of this ancient city had long since disappeared, and all the glory was gone. The reality is that the industrial enterprises in Heyang are paralyzed, and the leading enterprise Hehua Group is facing bankruptcy.The agricultural situation is also not optimistic, especially due to the drop in water level in the Huyang River Basin and the depletion of the river basin, the crisis of drought and water shortage has become more and more serious. The water shortage has threatened the survival of nearly two million people in three counties including Sha County and Wufo.That's all, anyway, the situation in the northwestern provinces is pretty much the same at the moment, unlike others in the south, the economy has already been on the fast track, and there is too much money to spend.The Northwest economy is still in its infancy. Although everyone is talking about development and leaps, in fact, only you know your own situation.If you serve as an official, you can solve the problem of food and clothing, and maintain a stable and united situation. As for development, you need to wait for the country to tilt and provide support, but these seem to be too far away from Heyang. She can still endure these difficulties, but what really bothers Zhou Yichan is the political environment in Heyang.Before she came here, she had heard about the disharmony between Qiangwei and the deputy secretary, Qiao Guodong, but the provincial government said that adjustments would be made soon, and Zhou Yican didn't dare to make any suggestions on this matter. After all, she was the new wife who just planned to get into the sedan chair. , It is not too early to talk about the length of the in-laws.When they arrived in Heyang, the provincial government did not break their word, and let a big tree in Heyang, Mr. Song, the director of the National People's Congress, retreat to the second line, and moved Qiao Guodong to the National People's Congress. It can be regarded as a more reasonable adjustment of the team structure.Zhou Yican was secretly thankful that the provincial government had set up a good platform for her. Although Qiang Wei and Qiao Guodong had conflicts, but now that one is at the National People's Congress and the other is at the Municipal Party Committee, those conflicts are naturally weakened. As for her, she is new blood. Should act as a lubricant for them.Unexpectedly, two years have passed, and the situation is far from what she thought. He Yang is complicated, a hundred times more complicated than she thought.A woman is sandwiched between two men, this drama in Heyang is difficult to sing. Thinking of this, Zhou Yican's heart was a little dark, and she was a little anxious. If she couldn't get over the situation, she would probably be desolate and trapped in Heyang, which was even more frustrating than Qiangwei's predicament. . Under such circumstances, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Ruite Company to invest in Northwest China, and it is a light that God bestowed on her in the darkness.Reiter is a leader in the field of international biological products, and it is also a giant in the biological products industry that first entered the Chinese market. In recent years, it has expanded in the electronic information industry.It first invested in frontier cities such as Shanghai and Guangzhou in China. After gaining successful experience, it expanded in Shenzhen, Zhuhai and other places.Right now its market has radiated to more than half of China, and the only gap is probably the Northwest.As soon as the strategic decision to develop the Central and Western Regions was made, Ruite Company moved upon hearing the news and extended its tentacles to the Northwest where no one cares about.At the beginning, they set the investment target in neighboring provinces, but after nearly a year of talks, the two sides did not reach an agreement.After hearing the news, Heyang went all out. After some efforts from the provinces and cities, Ruite Company finally decided to transfer its target to Heyang.After the preliminary contact, a fire ignited in Zhou Yican's heart. Although she still didn't fully understand the strategic motive of Ruite Company's investment in the Northwest, it could attract hundreds of millions of investment at once. For the mayor of her backward area It cannot but be said that it is a great temptation. What is the most difficult job to be a mayor now?economy!What kind of work is the central work of the government?Still economical!Looking at the whole province and the whole country, where is it not to sing about attracting investment as the highlight?For a multinational company like Ruite to settle in Heyang, it is already extraordinary in terms of political significance, coupled with the attractive investment, world-leading cutting-edge technology, brand-new business philosophy, and super-class management, etc. It is undoubtedly an epoch-making challenge for a traditional agricultural city like Heyang, and it will bring unprecedented impact and good news to Heyang.Thinking about it, Zhou Yican became intoxicated, as if the blueprint drawn in her mind had been realized... What's so annoying is that at such a critical juncture, the villagers of Hongshawo Village actually blocked Qin Xiyue and Qiang Wei Sand nest!The two key figures could not be present, Zhou Yican had to cancel the original welcome meeting, and sent back the heads of the department who had been waiting for a long time, let them go back to the unit to obey orders, personally arranged for the Ouyang couple to live well, and specially told them to let them live Take a shower first, rest and rest, and other agendas are pushed to the back burner.Then, she slipped into the guest room she occupied on the small second floor of the hotel, concentrating on preparing for the upcoming negotiations. Ouyang came here this time to represent the board of directors of Ruite Company and conduct substantive negotiations on the first-phase cooperation project between the two parties. The negotiation content includes 12 major items such as land acquisition, labor security, mutual benefit policies, and environmental protection measures. Thirty-eight items small items.The negotiation outline has been finalized by the working groups of both parties in advance, and has been sent to the representatives.Of course, judging from the way Ouyang came this time, he didn't bring a negotiator with him. If he did, there was only Miss Mai Rui, and Miss Mai Rui herself was the leader of the other party's working group. It was done by several assistants.It is different here in Heyang. For the sake of solemnity, the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government set up a special project team and transferred 21 comrades from seven departments. In the experience of cooperation, many things do not know how to carry out. The provincial government also specially dispatched six experts to help Heyang formulate a plan and be responsible for the whole process of consulting and answering questions. The first material Zhou Yican produced was a memorandum handed to her by an expert when she was in the provincial capital, which was about environmental protection.Nowadays, environmental protection is the first factor when investing in setting up factories. Since Heyang is located in the Huyang River Basin, environmental protection is even more important.Zhou Yican was watching intently, when Director Zeng of the reception office slipped in quietly and said in a low voice, "Mayor Zhou, Miss Qin lost her temper and is arguing to see her father. Do you want to tell her the truth?" Zhou Yican He raised his head, his eyes showed dissatisfaction with Director Zeng.As the director of the reception office and the main person in charge of this reception task, Director Zeng's performance today made her extremely unhappy, but she tried her best to restrain herself and did not vent her emotions. "Don't tell her for the time being, just say that Expert Qin has something to do down there, and come back when you're done." Zhou Yican also held back her dissatisfaction with Qin Sisi.Ouyang Moqian wanted to bring his wife along, which was not in the original plan.It's okay to come and go, I didn't expect Qin Xiyue's daughter to have such a bad temper.The scene at the airport made her very displeased. It is said that a mayor with a population of 5 million went to pick up the airport in person. This standard should not be considered low. Instead of saying a word of politeness, Qin Sisi posed several difficult problems for her. Made her very embarrassed. "Where's Miss Murray, what's her attitude?" Seeing Director Zeng standing there with a pale face, Zhou Yichan asked again. "Ms. Murray seems to know that Secretary Qiang will not be able to come. She told me, should we change the time and the first meeting will be tomorrow?" , Secretary Qiang's failure to come will not affect our negotiations, so I ask her not to have any worries." "Understood." Director Zeng responded and went out cautiously.This is a cautious man, let him be the director of the reception office, what Zhou Yiyan likes is his seriousness in doing everything by himself, and not reporting or carrying out everything.Such a person is serious in doing things, but at critical times, he appears clumsy and can't adapt to changes. Not long after Director Zeng went out, and the words might not have been delivered to Miss Mai Rui, Qiang Wei suddenly called from the desert, saying that there is no need to wait for him and Lao Qin, the welcome meeting will be held as usual, and work must be done quickly.Zhou Yican said: "I'm afraid it won't work. If you don't come, how can this meeting be held? Besides, I have sent away all the people who held the welcome party." "What are you sending away? Isn't it just a welcome party? Who is missing It can also be driven." Qiang Wei's words were a bit aggressive, probably because the conflict over there has not been resolved, and he is still angry.一听这口气，周一粲就知道那边的事情一定很棘手，刚想多问几句，了解一下情况，强伟又说："你跟人大和政协通个气，让他们出面，把欢迎会开了，再给人家接个风，谈判的事，晚上我回来再议。"强伟这样说，等于是告诉周一粲，这会必须开。周一粲心想，开就开吧，反正只是个欢迎会，属于礼节性的会议，并不牵扯到实质内容，便抓起电话打给曾主任，让他先回来，别跟麦瑞小姐说了。曾主任不明所以，在电话里小声说："话我已跟麦瑞小姐说了，麦瑞小姐正准备跟欧阳先生汇报哩，怎么办？""怎么办，还用我教你吗？告诉她，会马上就开！"曾主任吭哧了片刻，有点难受地应了一声，急着去跟麦瑞通知了。周一粲这才将电话打给人大主任乔国栋，没想到她刚说了一句，乔国栋那边就发起了脾气："这个时候通知我开会，前面做什么去了？"周一粲怔住了，没想到乔国栋会发这样的火。转念一想，一定是乔国栋的老毛病又犯了，怪她跟强伟没把他当回事，事到临头了，这才想起要拉他这位人大主任的差。乔国栋是有名的牢骚桶子，老是觉得市委和政府把事情都做完了。周一粲对此虽有想法，但乔国栋是老领导，又是老河阳，周一粲还真不能对他有所不敬。有时候敬人也是一门艺术，这是两年来周一粲在河阳错综复杂的政治环境下悟到的。 乔国栋还在电话那边发着脾气，周一粲心里却有点撑不住了，在这节骨眼儿上，她没时间听谁牢骚满腹，冲她说个没完，况且乔国栋也没理由冲她发这种火。这是在干事，不是在抢功。就算要抢功，也轮不到你乔国栋来抢！她镇定了一下，稍稍加重了点语气，问："乔主任，你到底来不来？"乔国栋那边犹豫了一会儿，然后慢条斯理地说："不必了，周市长，我对招商引资一窍不通，去了怕弄巧成拙。再说，我的胃炎又犯了，正想去医院打吊针呢，估计时间上也来不及。"周一粲耳朵贴着听筒僵了那么一会儿，然后轻轻挂上了电话。 这个电话打得令她很不舒服。她脑子里闪出乔国栋那张满是折皱的脸来，这张脸在她眼前静止了几秒钟，然后，让她一闭眼给闭没了。 她这才抓起电话，又打给政协主席。还好，此人倒是痛快，答应马上到会，说市长有什么安排，尽管开口……欢迎会开得很短暂，比原来设想的少了许多激情，周一粲准备好的热情洋溢的讲话也没派上用场，一切都让红沙窝村的村民给搅和了。不过就这么个简简单单的欢迎仪式，还是让欧阳默黔感到惊讶，他似乎不大习惯这种场面，也搞不懂河阳方面为什么要安排这么一个仪式。晚宴的气氛倒是热烈，大约在酒桌上招待客人是河阳人的强项，所以人人都能尽兴发挥。欧阳默黔受到感染，也渐渐豪爽起来。他本来是不喝白酒的，但主人的盛情难却，在周一粲的一再劝说下，他还是频频举起了酒杯。秦思思倒是爽快，她大呼小叫地说："我就是喜欢这种壮烈的场面，只可惜，在香港那边一次都遇不到。"一句话，说得周一粲竟然对她有了几分好感。宴会期间，欧阳默黔悄悄对周一粲说："想不到你们会搞得这么隆重，这样一比，我这边就显得太简单太随意了。"周一粲赶忙说："欧阳先生千万别这么想，你在国外多大的场面没见过？我们是穷地儿，一穷二白，有的就是这么股子热闹劲儿。"直到晚上九点，强伟才将村民们的工作做通，等赶回河阳，晚宴已经结束。秦西岳急着要见女儿，可强伟不由分说，硬是拉他吃了点东西，然后陪同他去贵宾楼。临进门的时候，周一粲悄声提醒："强书记，你要不要换套衣服啊？""换衣服做什么？"强伟不解地问。 "欧阳先生……"周一粲刚要说下去，一看强伟脸色不大对劲，噎住了。不过她心里嘀咕，人家是中国区代表，来投资的，你穿这么老土，让人家咋看？几个人来到贵宾楼，刚敲开门，秦西岳就让女儿给抱住了："老爸，想死你了。"思思这孩子，典型的恋父一族，当年就是因为舍不得老爸，差点放弃去香港发展的机会，若不是秦西岳主意坚决，她这辈子恐怕就只能窝在银州了，自然也就没了跟欧阳的这门婚事。 一见到女儿，秦西岳的热泪就止不住地涌了出来，也不管强伟他们在场，方便不方便流泪。他揽着女儿的双肩，激动了好一阵儿，然后轻轻推开思思，声音颤抖着说："让爸看看，快让爸看看，我的思思是不是变漂亮了……"秦思思略含羞涩地笑了笑，就忙着去洗手间拿梳子，因为秦西岳的头发又乱又糟，是在沙漠里让风给吹的。在家时，思思最关心老爸的头发，她说男人只有头发梳精神了，人才有味道。 欧阳默黔这才微笑着走过来，略带矜持地跟老丈人打招呼。出乎强伟跟周一粲的意料，秦西岳对他这个身份显贵的女婿，却没表现出什么热情，反而略略带了点儿冷漠。他只是淡淡地说了声："路上辛苦了吧？"然后就坐在沙发上，盯住女儿的一件衣服看。强伟赶忙跟欧阳打招呼，借以冲淡室内那股子突如其来、令人尴尬的凉意。欧阳默黔热情地跟强伟寒暄起来，似乎对岳父的态度毫不在意。 周一粲敏感地捕捉到他们翁婿之间的这一丝冷淡，却若无其事地夸奖说："思思这孩子，真是懂事儿！秦老好有福气，养了这么一个乖女儿。"秦西岳没理睬周一粲，他似乎对周一粲有成见，从餐厅吃饭到现在，他一直绷着个脸，没跟周一粲说一句话。特别是周一粲当着他的面，跟强伟述说乔国栋的不是时，他的脸黑得越发难看。 秦思思拿着梳子出来，见欧阳默黔跟强伟聊得正好，不好插话，索性拉了秦西岳，到里间去说话。 河阳宾馆虽不是五星级酒店，但欧阳夫妇住的这套房，却比一般五星级酒店的总统套房还要豪华。里面的陈设和装饰完全是参照北京国际饭店的标准弄的，加上又别具意味地融进了西北大漠戈壁的苍茫雄浑，一下就让这屋子的豪华具有了远天远地的悲壮感。能在这套房里住一宿，对河阳人来说，就是最最尊贵的待遇。可惜，住在这间套房里的人却似乎并没有感受到这一点。 当晚无话。第二天，谈判正式开始，起先谈得很顺利，一切都在周一粲的把握中。两天后，就在周一粲兴致勃勃打算将早已拟好的意向性协议递交到欧阳默黔手里时，市委书记强伟冷不丁地说出了一通话，一下就把谈判的局给搅了！ 事后分析，强伟说那番话，是早有预谋的。怪只怪周一粲太急于求成，太想拿到第一期六个亿的投资了。强伟显然比她老辣，也比她……怎么说呢，周一粲觉得，这件事上，强伟坑了她。 前两天谈判，强伟啥话也没说，只是默默地尽着东道主的责任，偶尔的，见谈判陷入僵局，强伟就拿眼神示意周一粲：甭慌，慢慢谈，只要对方来到河阳，就证明他们是有诚意的，至少，说明他们想把这事儿办成。如果这时候表现得过急，就会让对方洞悉到你的心思，跟你额外讲条件。周一粲当然理解强伟的意思，但她不能照强伟的意思去谈，她跟强伟站的角度不同，对待这事的态度也就不同。谈判吹了，或是出现什么变故，强伟顶多说两句可惜；她呢，代价就重了。她是铁了心，要在这一轮谈判期间就把大方向定下来，大方向一定，剩下的细节问题，就好处理了，甚至都不用她再费心，交给专家组去做就成了。 好在，欧阳默黔并没提过分要求，也没在细节上过分为难她。要说有几次出现了小僵局，问题也都出在她身上，是她太不具备现代商务谈判的经验和知识，更缺乏技巧，要不是麦瑞小姐暗中帮她，她非当场出洋相不可。当所有的障碍扫平后，周一粲露出了轻松的微笑，她在心里长长地舒了一口气，然后示意秘书，去拿协议书。 就在这时候，一直装哑巴的强伟开口了。强伟先是从宏观上充分肯定了双方的这次接触——注意，强伟没说这是谈判，只说是接触，又从技术性问题上承认了河阳一方的不足，然后不紧不慢地说道："能跟瑞特这样的世界一流公司合作，是我们的梦想，也是河阳经济未来发展的主方向。非常感谢欧阳先生能在百忙中到河阳来，实地了解，并切切实实为河阳经济的腾飞着想。既然双方都有这么大的诚意和合作发展的信心，那我们为什么不换一种合作方式呢？这两天欧阳先生的话让我大受启发，我就想，我们应该拿出一种大气魄，搞一点大动作，以更快捷的方式促成这次合作。我有个大胆的建议，提出来让欧阳先生跟麦瑞小姐考虑，也让在座的专家组还有河阳的同志们考虑。我想修正一下双方合作的方向，将投资改为兼并，说收购也行。我们打算把本市最大的国企河化集团拿出来，以最优惠的政策还有条件，出让给瑞特公司。这样，征地、项目报批还有一大堆事儿就都免了，厂房是现成的，设备也是现成的，工人也是现成的，只要瑞特公司注入资金、技术，短期内培训一下职工，项目马上便能启动。其好处是非常明显的：一则省了很多前期工作；二则呢，也能让我们的上万号工人有饭吃。当然，具体细节问题，我们可以再谈。我准备了一份资料，是有关河化集团的，请欧阳先生过目。"说完，冲秘书一挥手。秘书肖克凡非常利落地打开公文包，拿出了厚厚的一沓资料。 在场的人全都惊呆了！谁都没想到，强伟会突然提出这么一个思路，这等于是把谈判的大方向给变了！在所有人中，最受震动的无疑是周一粲。她的目光定定地在强伟脸上顿了好一会儿，然后无奈地垂下了眼睑。 河化集团！周一粲心里重重地重复着这四个字。 欧阳默黔也愣怔了片刻，但也就几秒钟的工夫，他就镇定了下来，心平气和地说："中国有句老话，客随主便。强书记这番提议，虽说让我意外，但既然提出来了，也不是不能考虑。"说着，将目光投向强伟，十分友好地笑了笑。欧阳默黔这一笑，让在座的人更为不解。难道他跟强伟事先有过交流，或者——但从强伟脸上，又丝毫看不出这方面的迹象，专家组也从未接到过强伟这方面的指示，这到底怎么一回事？会场的气氛骤然冷了下来。 欧阳默黔将目光投到麦瑞小姐脸上。麦瑞小姐一直表现得镇定自若，仿佛对这一变故早就心里有数。她冲欧阳默黔微微一笑，轻轻挪动了一下身体，从桌子下面的公文包里拿出两页文件，递给欧阳默黔。欧阳默黔迅速地扫了一眼，字斟句酌地说："贵方如果真要调整合作方向，我们可以考虑对河化进行收购，不过，得给我们时间——收购国有老企业，在瑞特还是第一次。不好意思，既然强书记提出这一想法，我想接着谈下去就没什么意义了，谈判就到这儿吧？"在此期间，强伟一直默默观察着欧阳默黔和麦瑞，不肯放过任何一个微妙的表情和细小的动作。等欧阳默黔说完，他望着欧阳手上那份文件会意地点点头，朗声笑道："好啊，欧阳先生，看来贵公司也早有这个意向，说明我们双方想到一块去了。这样吧，留出一段时间，双方都重新考虑一下，然后赶在下次商谈前，拿出一个更具操作性的方案。你说呢？"下次商谈……更具操作性的方案……欧阳默黔玩味着强伟的话，不由得暗暗倒吸了一口凉气。内地的官员真是一个比一个厉害啊！短短的一次会晤，简简单单的几句话，不仅彻底改变了谈判的方向和性质，而且不着痕迹地为下次的"商谈"定了调子。眼看都要木已成舟了，偏偏还要我说，事已至此，我还能说什么呢？可要是不说，那就等于默认了强伟的做法和判断都是对的，瑞特公司确实对河阳另有所图……就在欧阳犹豫不决的时候，河阳一方的首席谈判代表周一粲开口了："既然、既然这样，就按强书记的意见办吧。"声音很低，神情也明显地萎靡不振，与刚才谈判时判若两人。 欧阳默黔不得不承认，他碰上对手了，相比年轻干练的周一粲，深藏不露的强伟才是他真正需要对付的！谈判结束后，强伟想跟周一粲谈谈，有些话，事先所以没跟周一粲交代，他实在是有不得已的苦衷。对此，他想周一粲应该能理解。谁知他还没来及跟周一粲打招呼，周一粲却已经出了门。 望着周一粲的背影，强伟心想：这次又把疙瘩结下了，自己的这个关子是不是卖得太大了？后来发生的事实证明，这个关子不仅卖得过大，而且卖得很玄，它让强伟跟周一粲的关系，骤然变紧张了。 第二天一大早，欧阳默黔正在发电子邮件，秦思思说到楼下转会儿，呼吸点新鲜空气。刚一下楼，她立马变了一副脸色，匆匆叫了出租车，赶往另一家宾馆。那家宾馆的地址是前一天问好的，一开始强伟还笑着不告诉她，秦思思装作不高兴："强叔叔，你是怕我行贿啊？"强伟知道思思是在说笑，但他真怕思思去找他，这要是让欧阳知道，肯定会不高兴，毕竟……思思这样一说，他又没有理由不把地址说给思思，最后，还是将自个的住处说了。其实平心而论，他也很想跟思思单独聊聊。 这是一家小宾馆。强伟的家不在河阳——如今干部推行交叉任职，担任市委和政府一把手的，都不得是本地人。这样市委跟政府两个大院，便多了很多单身汉，市上本来在河阳宾馆给他们安排了住处，但大家挤在一座宾馆里，很是不方便，谁都渴望自己的住处隐蔽一点，不要让太多的人知道。强伟住的这座宾馆，表面上破破烂烂，一点也不显眼。秦思思还疑惑，强叔叔会不会骗她？到了房间门口，举手敲门的一瞬，她又想，怎么会呢，说清楚了是受逸凡之托，前来拜见他的。门铃刚一摁响，里面便传来强伟的声音："来了，请稍等。"秦思思的心莫名地就乱跳起来，这一刻她有点慌乱，感觉自己像是在搞间谍活动，很不光明正大。 强伟打开门，见是思思，笑道："你还真找来了。这一大早的，早饭还没吃吧？"秦思思说："还没呢，欧阳在上网，等一会儿吃。"说着，目光朝四处扫了扫。这是一间二居室，屋子里的设施简单、朴素，一点看不出是市委书记住的。秦思思了解强伟，知道他在物质上很不讲究，吃饭穿衣都很随便。两人简单聊了几句，秦思思拿出几样东西，说是逸凡托她带来的。强伟大约也是想儿子想得有点疯了，一看见儿子送的礼物，就像小孩子一样喜不自禁地捧在了手里。逸凡送他的，有一件衬衫，带格子的，看上去很洋气；还有一条领带，真正的名牌，而不是什么冒牌货。"这家伙，他倒学会花钱了。单是这条领带，少说也得上千吧？"秦思思嗔道："强叔叔，你是真不知道还是故意装傻啊？这条领带，少说也得过万！怎么样，逸凡比你腐败吧？"强伟呵呵一笑："腐败，比他老子腐败多了！回去替我好好教育他，别老拿钱不当钱。"一句话，说得秦思思脸红起来，人也越发地不自在。强伟这才意识到说了不该说的话，忙笑着改口："好了，思思，来一趟不容易，跟你爸亲热够了没？亲热够了，强叔叔安排你们去转转。别看河阳穷，值得一转的地儿还是有几处。你不是一直想去看沙漠水库吗？要不今儿就去？"秦思思略略犹豫了一下，道："不必了强叔叔，你忙你的。欧阳说，既然合作的事有了变化，他想马上回去。"强伟"哦"了一声，没再多说什么。不过看得出，他心里也不大好受，出现今天这样的局面，也不是他所希望的。沉吟片刻，他说："那好吧，回省城看看你母亲，多陪她几天。啥时回香港，给强叔叔来个电话，强叔叔去机场送你。"秦思思"嗯"了一声，然后怯生生地拿出一样东西，难为情地递到强伟手里。这是她特意给强伟买的，但不知他喜不喜欢，便犹豫着说："我不知道送你什么礼物才好，送我爸的是剃须刀，我想，给你的也应该一样。"强伟接过剃须刀，那样子竟像是接过一件无价之宝似的，一时间心里涌上一层复杂的东西，很多已经逝去的想法，这一刻重又活跃起来。他感慨地看了思思一眼，噎了好半天，才吐出一声"谢谢"。 秦思思不敢久留，怕欧阳找她，可又舍不得就这么离去。她这趟来河阳，本来是有太多话想跟强伟说的，包括她跟强逸凡现在的关系，跟欧阳默黔貌似完美实际上却丝毫谈不上幸福的婚姻，甚至还想谈谈父亲跟强伟的关系。在香港时，她听父亲在电话里老是批评强叔叔，她搞不明白，父亲跟强叔叔怎么会把关系搞成这样？按说，他们之间应该是有很多共同点的，至少在她看来，他们同属于公仆型的干部，不应该把关系闹得这么僵的。然而……强伟看出了她的心思，但也没有因此而多留她。有些事，跟思思是没法讲的，他跟秦西岳，用一两句话也是讲不清的，但他相信，他们之间并没有根本性的冲突，甚至可以说，他们两个原本就没啥冲突，所谓的矛盾，都是因为两人的工作方法和处世方式不同而引起的，时间兴许能解决一切。 简单聊了一阵儿，秦思思告辞出来。早晨的空气新鲜极了。走在回来的路上，秦思思的心情顿时好起来，这些日子的疲累一扫而光，感觉此趟回国，真有一种归家的感觉。她拼命地吸着这鲜如柠檬的空气，仰望着喷薄而出的太阳，还有湛蓝湛蓝的天空，脑子里忽然就冒出强逸凡那张清澈的脸……送走欧阳他们，周一粲的态度就来了个180度大转弯，强伟连打几次电话，请她过去谈谈，都让她婉转地拒绝了。这在过去的两年内，是从没有过的。可见，强伟这一次是彻底把周一粲心里潜伏的那些不满给激活了。这天刚上班，她便冲手底下几个人发牢骚："这成什么事儿了，忙活大半天，一句话，全推翻了，弄得我半年工作都白干了。"这是周一粲第一次在下属面前发牢骚，以前她是个嘴巴很紧的人。 政府秘书长还有接待办曾主任等人面面相觑，既不敢附和也不敢应声儿，只是垂着头，暗自叹气。说实在的，强伟这一变，他们心里也有气，谁不指望把工作干得亮堂点？你忙活半天，人家一句话，全否定了，你怎么想？但下级就是这样，变与不变都得服从上面的决定，都得接着干下去，所有的喜怒哀乐都不能显在脸上，冤死你也得说好，得说舒服。好在强伟这一变，还不至于把他们冤死。不过周一粲这一发脾气，他们便知道，接下来的日子，不好过了。 欧阳默黔走后的第二天，周一粲主持召开了政府工作会议，会上她闭口不谈什么谈判，也没提招商引资的事，只说全市眼下旱情严重，四县二区水荒不断，大家再也不能坐在办公室里等雨了，必须组织力量，尽快深入基层，帮农民想办法，稳定农民情绪，坚定农民信念，切实打一场抗旱救灾的保卫战。这项工作本来一个月前的常委会上就作了安排，只因周一粲忙，一直没顾上开会，没往下落实。这下好了，强伟将投资商撵走了，她也不能闲着，借这个机会，应该干点别的事了。 工作会开了半天，周一粲除了讲了一大堆要求，还责成农委和秘书处联合成立督查组，到各帮扶点督查。政府部门的帮扶对象是年初就确定了的，也签了帮扶责任书，只要市上有大的行动，帮扶单位就会自觉派人到点上，一是做好群众思想工作，二是出钱出物，支援农民。眼下旱情真是不容忽视，沙县、五佛已有不少农民放弃农作物，到外面打工挣钱了。如果旱情继续肆虐，今年的农业丰收将成一句空话，农业收入自然无法完成，这对政府来说，是一个很严峻的问题。周一粲要求各帮扶单位必须在两天内全部到达联系点，具体怎么帮，怎么扶，各单位想各单位的办法，市上不统一规定，一个大目标就是：农民不能乱，庄稼不能丢，农作物增收必须按年初制定的目标完成。 要说这样的安排原本没错，也很及时，并且符合当前"三农"工作的总体要求。但周一粲心里却没这么想，或者说她开这场会，作出这样的安排，动机不仅仅在"三农"上，更多的，还是在她跟强伟之间的"别扭"上。 跟任何一个班子一样，周一粲跟强伟，也是有不少矛盾的。这矛盾，有些能找到根源，有些，却没根没源，都是工作中的小磕碰引起的，日积月累，就给攒下了。好在周一粲是个心里能装得住事的人，她来河阳两年，在班子里还从没跟谁红过脸，对强伟跟乔国栋，一直都是尊敬有加。她自认为年纪轻轻、资历浅，加上又是女同志，应该谦让点，便时时处处保持着谦卑的姿态，特别是在强伟面前，更是坚持着服从高于一切的原则。但服从并不代表自己心里没怨气。
