Chapter 6 Chapter 6 Sudden Situation
As soon as he returned to the county, Qi Maolin told Lin Yawen that Feng Qiao, the newly appointed deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, was coming to Hexi City for research, and Shahu County was the focus.
"He really took office?" Lin Yawen was still in her fantasy and refused to wake up. She had always been suspicious of Feng Qiao as the provincial leader.
"I said it earlier, but you don't believe it." Qi Maolin sighed, and said, "Deputy Secretary Feng's visit this time focuses on investigating the reform of the flow management department and resolving the conflict between the flow management department and the county. You and I have to Be prepared to sacrifice."
"What are you sacrificing? The interests of the 300,000 farmers in Shahu County, or the black yarn on our heads?" Lin Yawen laughed at herself, and felt that it was meaningless to complain to Qi Maolin. She pondered for a moment and asked: "The specific work arrangement Did you go down?"
Qi Maolin said: "Not yet, I want to meet with you, have a general understanding of the idea, and then make arrangements."
Lin Yawen thought in her heart that Qi Maolin respected her so much now. In the past, there was no need to say hello to this kind of thing, just arrange a meeting.It seems that Qi Maolin really intends to retire.
"What can I do? Just follow the arrangement above." Lin Yawen said discouragedly.Qi Maolin wanted to persuade her, but he was also in a bad mood, so he couldn't persuade others at all. "You are responsible for the specific work. I heard from the city that Deputy Secretary Feng still insists on his original intention. He wants to hand over the small businesses in the watershed to the city and county levels, so that the flow control department can go into battle with ease."
"That's not called traveling lightly, it's called selling everything and eating everything."
"Yawen, don't say this in the future. Deputy Secretary Feng is a very principled person. Don't ruin yourself because of your complaints."
"Principle?" Lin Yawen smiled coldly, and the face of Deputy Secretary Feng slowly appeared in her mind.
What a tough face it was, every time this face flashed, Lin Yawen's heart was stabbed severely, blood gurgled, and the past also gurgled...
Lin Yawen and Deputy Secretary Feng had a relationship in the past. It might be wrong to say that the relationship was wrong, but what did you say?For so many years, Lin Yawen has never found a word to accurately end that period of the past.I couldn't even find a word to put a suitable label on that person's face in the past.Yes, some people need to be labeled. You can't let the halo and official title on his head confuse others.But Lin Yawen couldn't do it, she tried, but finally gave up helplessly.He was like a chaotic symbol, hiding in the backlight of her heart, biting her wounded heart from time to time.
The past floated up like smoke and mist.
At that time, Lin Yawen was still in the Forestry Department. Not long after she became the section chief, Hong Guangda came to her one day and said that he wanted to invite Deputy Director Feng of the Water Conservancy Department to dinner and ask her to accompany her.Lin Yawen didn't want to go at first, but later she couldn't help Hong Guangda's persuasion, so she went.That was the first time she met Feng Qiao, and she couldn't tell whether it was good or bad. Besides, she was not qualified to judge others at that time. After all, the status of the two was too different. She could only look up and visit him like a starry sky. Looking at the aloof Deputy Director Feng, she instinctively told her that this is a man with a deep reputation, his words are unrevealing, and...
Lin Yawen shook her head, drove away the broken memories that jumped into her mind, and concentrated on studying with Qi Maolin how to meet Deputy Secretary Feng.What Lin Yawen meant was that she would do the specific work, and Qi Maolin would preside over the report meeting: "After all, you are the top leader. Besides, you have a comprehensive grasp of the county's situation, so you will still report when the time comes."
"The first and second in command, now is the time for you to show your face. This time, not only Deputy Secretary Feng, but Secretary-General Zhao of the Provincial Party Committee are also here. He is a person who cherishes talents. Yawen, you want seize this chance."
"Old Qi, you misunderstood me. I, Lin Yawen, haven't reached the point where I can sharpen my head and go up." In one sentence, Qi Maolin fell silent.Lin Yawen didn't mean to hurt Qi Maolin, but she was in a bad mood, and what she said sounded like thorns.Realizing this, Lin Yawen hurriedly said: "Old Qi, don't think too much, my heart is in a mess. When I think of taking over so many burdens, I really don't know how this county magistrate is going to be."
Qi Maolin smiled awkwardly. He had already reported these worries to Secretary Sun Tao of the Municipal Party Committee. Secretary Sun Tao meant not to consider these for now. Go to Secretary Hai Lin of the Provincial Party Committee.
Can it really be carried by the market?Qi Maolin didn't know what to do, and he didn't dare to put his hopes too high. He reminded Lin Yawen: "I'm worried that they will come hard, and let the county make concessions unconditionally."
"Concession? As long as they are not afraid of the rebellion of the people in Shahu County, it doesn't matter to me as the county magistrate!" Lin Yawen was at a loss in her mind now, so she could only rage.
After a brief discussion, the two of them hurriedly made preparations. No matter how they had opinions in their hearts, the preparations had to be done in detail.In particular, the ideological work of the masses must be done well and comprehensively, and there must be no mass siege incidents during the investigation period. This is also what Secretary Sun Tao is worried about.
Lin Yawen urgently summoned comrades from the public security department, and asked them to split up, investigate and find out, grasp the ideological trends of the masses, and take precautions in advance for those who may cause trouble due to excessive thinking.The situation is special, and the superiors come to inspect. The public security department will go deep into the villages in advance this time, go deep into the farmers, and investigate village by village. For those old petitioners and nail households, they must be invited to a fixed place in advance and supervised by special personnel.This time, Lin Yawen asked to make the work more detailed and safer.After arranging the affairs in the countryside, Lin Yawen went to several enterprises. Now the enterprises are generally in a downturn, and there are more laid-off workers than new ones. Especially the urban subsistence allowance recipients have become more and more a burden on the county. Every time the leaders come to inspect, These people always make trouble for the county.Lin Yawen sympathized with them from the bottom of her heart and wanted to try her best to solve their difficulties.However, the county's financial resources are really limited, and some issues have been put on hold for many years and have not been implemented until now, making Lin Yawen very passive.Last year, she asked for help everywhere, raised funds from various sources, and invited two enterprises from the south to start the laid-off reemployment project in the county, which solved the employment problem of more than 300 laid-off workers at one time.This year, she wanted to recruit a few more businesses to form an industry in Shahu County's native product processing and fur raw processing, but this series of things took up all her energy, and she couldn't do a single business.
As an official in the county, you will be trapped by all kinds of trivial matters, and most of your energy will be spent on the oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar of the common people. It is almost impossible to spare time for big projects and large-scale projects!It's not that Lin Yawen thinks these tasks are trivial, and it's not that she doesn't care about the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar of the common people, but she is very dissatisfied with the current work status and work achievements.Anyway, I have to do one or two influential things!
After transferring to several companies, I emphasized them one by one, asking them to stabilize the minds of employees. If there is any difficulty, wait for the leader to leave and find her.If she can't solve it, go to the municipal party committee, and don't make any more trouble at this juncture.Those factory directors and managers all understood, and expressed their opinions one after another, they would be optimistic about their own doors and manage their own people.Lin Yawen finally came to the smoked vinegar factory. Li Min happened to be in the factory. Seeing Lin Yawen, she hurried out of the workshop and said with a smile, "County Lin is here, why didn't you say hello in advance? Look at my hands, dirty I can't hold hands with you." Lin Yawen smiled, Li Min put on overalls, she was a female worker, she couldn't tell that she was the factory manager, let alone that she had ever been a leader.
"How is it, is the factory still normal?"
"Naturally, we have recently opened up the Xi'an market, and the smoked vinegar is selling well there, so we worry about not being able to produce it." Li Min said while wiping his hands.
"Good news, but be careful, you must not wash the mud when the radish is about to run out, and the quality must be stable."
"Don't worry about quality issues. There are three gates in the factory, and they are very tight."
"What about the expansion plan, when will you hand it over to me?" The two of them went to the office building while talking.The office building of the smoked vinegar factory is very old and was built in the 1970s.Although the factory has earned money these years, Li Min has been reluctant to use it to build buildings. She wants to expand two new production lines to quadruple the factory's production capacity.She had reported this matter to Lin Yawen, and Lin Yawen was very supportive and asked her to submit the expansion plan as soon as possible.Although the county cannot support funds, it can give preferential treatment in terms of land and taxation.
After entering the office, Li Min changed into his overalls, washed his face, took out the expansion plan from the drawer, and handed it to Lin Yawen.Lin Yawen glanced at it hastily, and said, "We'll discuss the plan in a few days. I'm looking for you today because I want to arrange a job."
Lin Yawen and Qi Maolin agreed that Li Min would report to the provincial and municipal leaders on behalf of the business community.Although the smoked vinegar factory is small in scale, it has developed rapidly in the past two years and is representative.Li Min didn't refuse, but was worried that his report would not be good.Seeing her shy look, Lin Yawen joked, "Why do you always sound like a little daughter-in-law? No, if you want to grow the company, you have to act like a mother-in-law." After joking for a while, Lin Yawen stood up and said goodbye.Li Min insisted on keeping her for dinner, Lin Yawen said: "I won't eat the meal, I invite you when the expansion is settled."
As soon as the factory door came out, Lin Yawen was blocked by two workers.
The two workers, one named Xie Fashun and the other named Liu Laocheng, were originally brewers of the smoked vinegar factory.When the smoked vinegar factory was struggling, the two left the factory and worked alone outside. Later, Li Min took over the smoked vinegar factory. According to the reform plan of the county, some employees were diverted. Sexual compensation ranging from 20,000 to 30,000 yuan in compensation, allowing them to start their own businesses and seek their own development.Xie Fashun and Liu Laocheng were the first to ask for compensation. At that time, their attitudes were very aggressive. They were afraid that the 30,000 yuan compensation would not be available because of Li Min's nonsense.Especially Xie Fashun, stuck in Li Min's office for three days in a row.At that time, Li Min had no money in hand, and after the plan was submitted for approval, he was running for a loan from the bank.Relying on the fact that he is an old employee and has some relationship with the former factory manager, Xie Fashun proclaimed himself the employee representative, took the lead in safeguarding the interests of the employees, and privately instigated individual employees to loot the factory's equipment to put pressure on Li Min.Forced to do so, Li Min borrowed from a friend and paid the compensation for him and Liu Laocheng in advance.After getting the money, the two never came to the factory again, and several people jointly set up a small food factory. Before the product was released, they broke up.Right now, the smoked vinegar factory has turned losses into profits, and its development momentum is getting better day by day, and the wages of workers have more than doubled.Xie Fashun became restless again and wanted to go back to work.After looking for Li Min several times, Li Min ignored him, and then discussed, to block Lin Yawen and sue Li Min.
"Why don't you let us go to work? We are old employees of the vinegar factory, and the vinegar factory always has us." Xie Fashun stood in front of Lin Yawen, gesticulating.
"If you have a problem, go to the office to discuss it. It will not be good to be blocked at the factory gate." Lin Yawen said.
"The factory has been taken over by others, so how can we have a place to talk?" Liu Laocheng said.
"Occupied, who occupied it?" Lin Yawen stared at Liu Laocheng. She received Liu Laocheng half a year ago. It was because of his daughter's work injury. At that time, the relevant departments did not handle it properly. Liu Laocheng asked her to report the situation.Lin Yawen's impression was that this person was reasonable and could listen to other people's advice.But today, Liu Laocheng's attitude surprised Lin Yawen a little.
"It's not what it is. Such a big factory, why should it be Li Min's? This factory was bought with the blood and sweat of our workers. When we started our business, where was she?"
"The factory was sold after legal restructuring. At that time, you all nodded at the workers' meeting." Lin Yawen patiently worked with two people.
"What legal restructuring? Isn't it because your officials protect each other and set up a trap to plot against our workers?" Xie Fashun said in a high voice, waving from a distance as he spoke.Lin Yawen saw a group of people gathered not far from the gate of the factory, looking in this direction, thinking that it must have been initiated by Xie Fashun.Inexplicably, Lin Yawen became angry.Why can't this unhealthy tendency be stopped by gathering people to petition without reporting through normal channels?
Lin Yawen was about to say something to Xie Fashun, but Li Min took the words and said, "Isn't it legal? If it's not legal, you can sue in court."
"I don't think I dare, you surnamed Li, you are too rampant, are you honest in bullying our workers? Not only do we have to sue the court, but we also have to petition the municipal government and the provincial government."
"It's useless, old Xie, you can't threaten anyone, others can go to work, you two, sue to the end of the day, and you don't even want to make your little plans come true!"
"You—" Xie Fashun's eyeballs protruded. He originally thought that Li Min would be afraid of such a block at the factory gate, and would obediently let him and Liu Laocheng go to work, but who knew...
"Get out of the way and let County Magistrate Lin go!" Li Min suddenly darkened his face and said in a very majestic voice.
"Get out of the way? It's not that easy. If you don't solve the problem, you won't be able to leave today." Xie Fashun also struggled, but he was obviously not as confident as Li Minzu.
"I'll say it again, please get out of the way!" Li Min emphasized his tone, took a few steps forward, and stared at Xie Fashun.Li Min at this moment, compared to the Li Min in the office who behaved stiffly and talked blushingly, was a completely different person.
"I won't let it go, what can you do?" Xie Fashun muttered, stepping back subconsciously, his eyes fixed on Lin Yawen's face uneasily, wanting to ask for help from Lin Yawen.Lin Yawen was unmoved, she really wanted to see how Li Min would handle this matter today?
Instead of arguing with Xie Fashun, Li Min took out his mobile phone and called "110" directly.When Li Min reported the crime, Xie Fashun panicked.Liu Laocheng was even more panicked, and stretched out his hand to tug on Xie Fashun: "Let's go, Lao Xie, a good man doesn't suffer from immediate losses."
"Want to leave? It's too late, you won't go down the steps, but you want to force me to do business. Security, invite these two people in. After a while "110" will arrive, let them handle it." After finishing speaking, Li Min signaled Sun Min , you can go.Sun Yin just started the car, Lin Yawen didn't say anything, she knew that she couldn't be soft when dealing with someone like Xie Fashun.They were originally arranged according to the policy. Seeing that the vinegar factory is doing well, they all suffer from pink eye disease. If they are allowed to continue, the stability of the county cannot be guaranteed, and the stability and development of the enterprise cannot be guaranteed.
It seems that for restructured enterprises, some protective measures have to be introduced. This issue was really neglected before.
In the morning of the next day, Lin Yawen called the people from the Restructuring Office and assigned them a task to investigate the restructured enterprises and look back to see what problems remained after the reorganization and what was left in the minds of the employees. mood? "The focus should be on the life of the employees. If there are people who are really hard to live after the restructuring, they must be counted and corresponding guarantee measures must be taken. They cannot be made hard to live because of the reform. Of course..." Lin Yawen paused After a pause, he said in a firm tone, "For those who always want to take advantage of reform loopholes, but are unwilling to do a good job, we can't just make concessions."
In the afternoon, Qiang Guangjing came back from the desert to ask Lin Yawen for advice.The promotional materials for Chen Jiasheng and the eight old men were all ready. According to the usual practice, the county would hold a meeting in a small area to discuss the materials first.After listening to Qiang Guangjing's report, Lin Yawen said: "There's no need for the meeting, isn't it because you and Minister Feng are here, just keep it in check." Qiang Guangjing hesitated and said, "Let's go through the meeting and let everyone give their opinions. To save time..."
"I'm going to the meeting for everything, do I still need to do my work?" Lin Yawen has always had opinions on meeting, and all the matters in the county have to be studied at the meeting, and half of the energy is spent on the meeting.She once suggested to the Standing Committee that if the leader in charge can be the master, let the leader in charge be the master, and don't bring up big and small matters at the meeting.Qi Maolin didn't object at the time, but when he exchanged opinions with her after the meeting, he said that the county is like this, and everything is best decided at the meeting, as one or two people make a decision, and others will argue.Lin Yawen insisted on her own opinion: "Everything has to be decided at the meeting, and I have to be in charge of what the leader does. I think some habits can be changed. Now we are talking about efficiency. Everyone is tied up in the meeting. How can we talk about efficiency?"
"Efficiency is important, and collective leadership should not be lost. Don't look at some things as small things, but once they are tricked, they are big things." Qi Maolin has Qi Maolin's principles. Over the years, he has always insisted that everything should be put on the table. If there are achievements, everyone will share them, and if there are problems, they will be collectively responsible.Affected by him, the cadres in the county did not easily make a decision on anything, they just waited for the meeting to make a decision.
Qiang Guangjing still wanted to explain, but Lin Yawen interrupted him and said: "This matter will be handled according to my opinion. You prepare the materials and go to the media separately according to the original plan. If Secretary Qi and I need to come forward, we will do it with the media." As for the job, the propaganda department can be in charge, so let’s just make the decision.” After giving this order, Lin Yawen asked again: “How is Qin Feng’s performance recently?”
As soon as he asked Qin Feng, Qiang Guangjing became hesitant, hesitated for a long time, and said: "Mayor Lin, meet Secretary Qi and see if you can adjust Qin Feng?"
Lin Yawen snorted, Qiang Guangjing's words were like telling her that Qin Feng was playing tricks again.
When will this person get rid of those bad habits?
Feng Qiao, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, accompanied by Sun Tao, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and Lin Haishi, Mayor, came to Shahu County.Along with Feng Qiao, Zhao Xianyong, the Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee, and the leaders of the Provincial Agriculture Office, Economic Reform Commission, Poverty Alleviation Office, Water Conservancy Department, and Forestry Department came to investigate with Feng Qiao.This day is June nineteenth, Tuesday.Qi Maolin and Lin Yawen were waiting at the hotel early in the morning. When the convoy arrived, Lin Yawen suddenly received a call from Zheng Fengshi. Zheng Fengshi told her that he had returned from Xinjiang and was waiting for the leaders at the flow management office.Before Lin Yawen had time to say anything to Zheng Fengshi, Secretary Sun Tao came over with a smile and introduced Feng Qiao to them.
The moment their eyes met, Lin Yawen felt her body tremble, but Feng Qiao didn't care, and said condescendingly: "You have worked hard." Then she looked away and cast her eyes on the face of Secretary-General Zhao Xianyong.Lin Yawen found that Feng Qiao's gaze was still so cold and arrogant after not seeing him for many years, but there was a layer of wind and frost in this gaze.Connected with the wrinkles on his face, one can imagine that it has not been smooth sailing for this ambitious man these years.
Seeing that Feng Qiao was no longer paying attention to her, Lin Yawen withdrew her thoughts, chatted with Zhao Xianyong, and went to the conference hall.At this time, Secretary Sun Tao of the municipal party committee had told Qi Maolin the main purpose of Feng Qiao's trip.Qi Maolin's face turned from warm to cold, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart, why did Secretary Sun Tao change his tone?
Provincial, municipal and county leaders held a brief meeting at the Shahu County Hotel. The meeting was presided over by Sun Tao, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Secretary Sun Tao first delivered a warm welcome speech. On behalf of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government, he extended a warm welcome to the arrival of Secretary Feng Qiao and his party. At the same time, the cadres at the city and county levels must use this inspection as a driving force to push the work of Hexi City and Shahu County to a new climax.On behalf of Feng Qiao and his party, Zhao Xianyong made a few requests, saying that the provincial party committee sent a research team to Shahu County, Hexi City to resolve the historical disputes between the flow management department and the farmers in Shahu on the spot, and to respect history and reality. , Everything revolves around the big goal of development, the county makes concessions, the county makes concessions, and the flow management makes sacrifices, the flow management makes sacrifices.One principle is that the reform of the flow management department should be strengthened and pushed forward in depth.In accordance with the requirements of Comrade Hailin of the Provincial Party Committee, the work should be done solidly and meticulously.As for any specific difficulties in the county, you can bring them up, and the research team will study and solve them. If the research team can't solve them, you can bring the problems back and let the provincial party committee solve them.
After the meeting, the provincial, city and county leaders drove to Huyang Township, with Qi Maolin at the front and Lin Yawen's car at the end.Not long after they were on the road, Lin Yawen felt uneasy, so she called Wang Shulin and asked how the people in Shawan Village were feeling, would there be any problems?Wang Shulin assured: "Don't worry, Lin County, if something goes wrong this time, I, Wang Shulin, will beat and punish you at will." Lin Yawen was in no mood to joke with Wang Shulin.What Zhao Xianyong said just now weighed heavily on her heart, and it always made people feel that something unexpected was about to happen when Feng Qiao came here.
What could it be?Lin Yawen shook her head, her thoughts returned to reality again.After walking for a few more minutes, she called Dui Wang of the Public Security Bureau and asked him how his duty work was doing, and did he take care of the key targets?Wang Dui's words are the same as Wang Shulin's, saying that everything has been implemented according to the county's requirements, and there will be no mistakes.Only then did Lin Yawen feel relieved, and began to think about how to resolve the conflict between Shawan Village and the flow management office?
After thinking about it for less than five minutes, a face suddenly popped up in my mind, that face was majestic, with the pride unique to successful people, and also had a condescending aura.The past is like smoke, once the plug is pulled out, it will curl up and cover your world again.How many years have passed, Lin Yawen is not easy to move this layer in her heart, this layer is wrapped too tightly by her, too tight, like coal, like fire, sealed at the bottom layer by her heavily, for fear that once it is lifted, it will be There was billowing magma rushing out, completely overturning her peaceful life...
However, there are some things she can't think about.She had to open some memories again.After all, this person appeared, and in a more noble and powerful posture.Her heart could no longer be at peace.
It was not long after the meal with Hong Guangda, about a month, Lin Yawen had forgotten about that person, and that face had already become blurred.Lin Yawen is the kind of person who is unwilling to climb high, let alone the kind of opportunistic person who wants to take advantage of any gaps. She is content with peace and reality, and never thinks about relying on anyone to push herself up.Although Hong Guangda reminded her several times in a roundabout way, saying that I introduced you to the person, whether you can catch it depends on your ability.Lin Yawen really lacked this kind of ability, and she couldn't figure it out, what could she do if she caught him?But life is like this, sometimes the person you deliberately want to forget, the person you deliberately want to get rid of from your mind, will come to you unexpectedly, making you unable to hide even if you want to.
It was a weekend, Lin Yawen planned to visit her parents after get off work and have a meal with them, when the phone on the table rang.Picking up the phone, a strange voice came from the receiver, and the other party said he was the office of the Water Resources Department.Lin Yawen snorted, thinking she must have made a wrong call, and was about to hang up the phone listlessly, when the other party suddenly said, "Director Lin, our director wants to see you."
"Director?" Lin Yawen was a little curious, even more baffled, so she couldn't help but said a few more words to the other party.The other party mistakenly thought that she was enthusiastic, and immediately changed into an enthusiastic one, and greeted her.After chatting for a few minutes, Lin Yawen felt that she had lost her composure and shouldn't be so close to strangers, so she said, "I'm leaving get off work, what can I do?"
The other party announced a name, followed by a place, and still said enthusiastically: "Our director wants to talk to you, of course it's about work, I hope you can come on time." After hanging up the phone for a long time, Lin Yawen Still in a trance, he asked me to talk about work?What kind of job will a deputy director look for a small section chief from another unit?
Contradictions belong to contradictions, Lin Yawen finally went.When he arrived at the place, he found that he was alone, and the secretary who claimed to be surnamed Zhu was not with him.Lin Yawen walked into the box gracefully and sat down in front of him.He smiled. Compared with the last time, his face was a bit gentler, and there was also a layer of joy, faintly, with a layer of temptation.However, his butt still didn't leave the chair, and he just bowed slightly, as a greeting to her.Lin Yawen was a little uneasy at first. After all, the person sitting opposite her was a department-level leader, and I heard that he was very authoritative in the Water Resources Department. Although he was the deputy director, he was also the commander-in-chief of several major projects. His subordinates could There are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses mobilized.Such a role is extremely important, how can Lin Yawen not be nervous?But fortunately, he used a few humorous words to make her relax.Successful men often lack humor, and those with high positions and powers regard humor as a taboo. Unexpectedly, he brought humor to the extreme this day, which not only made Lin Yawen relax, but also made him relax.Sometimes the rich and powerful are really like a piece of paper. Painting paper with strong oil paint on the face can scare people. Once it is torn apart and the original face of the person is restored, this person is actually very ordinary. .
Lin Yawen chatted and laughed with him, and enjoyed the dinner for the two of them.In the middle, he asked with concern, do you want to come to the Water Conservancy Department?Lin Yawen smiled sweetly: "What are you doing at the Water Conservancy Department? I'm not a water student?"
"It has nothing to do with learning, if you want to come, you can come right away." He also smiled, his face relaxed.
"No, I'm very satisfied with the current environment." Lin Yawen stored water for him, sat down and said.
"Don't seek to make progress." He took a sip of tea, uttered these four words, then put his gaze on her face, and remained motionless.
Lin Yawen was nervous again, she couldn't figure out whether this was a compliment or a criticism, and it was best if it didn't mean anything.That way, she will not be burdened.Sometimes it is easy for you to be burdened. A word from your superior, a cough, or a dissatisfied look are all burdens to you.What really disturbed Lin Yawen was his gaze.Lin Yawen still can't understand why a person has multiple eyes at the same time. He was joking with you in good faith, but in an instant, his eyes are as cold as ice. You haven't woken up from the frost-like blow. His gaze changed to another color, and you don't know whether he gave you spring, autumn, or cold winter?Your thinking is affected by his gaze, and the smile on your face will also change with the color of his gaze. If he is cold, you will be hot, and if he is overheated, you will have to give him a cool breeze without showing any traces.After he said those four words that day, his eyes turned into the bright autumn sun, which made Lin Yawen's face turn red. Lin Yawen didn't take it seriously at first, but later, later she was afraid.
She can't be afraid.
she is a woman.
Women can understand that kind of gaze very well. It would be fine if this gaze came from an ordinary man, but he is a man who holds a lot of power. Sometimes power is directly proportional to desire. The more familiar a man is with power, The woman who covered the depths of her gaze, the more she thought she could control it calmly.Even if he doesn't make any effort, just using his eyes, he can make you throw yourself into a hug in hints.
Lin Yawen is not a woman who throws herself into her arms.Facing the trap deep in her eyes, she could only choose to run away.
Later, Hong Guangda said that he was very disappointed in her.Without seeking to make progress, he still used these four words to evaluate her.Hong Guangda was very regretful: "Others were eager to have such an opportunity, but you gave it up so easily." Seeing that she didn't understand, Hong Guangda further said: "Do you know what official he asked you to be, the material director of the Yellow River Diversion Project Headquarters?" , how fat you are, but you..."
Lin Yawen smiled, and only now did she understand that he also wanted to pay a price for her.
The past is like a river that is gradually drifting away. Every drop of water in the river has left a deep imprint on her heart.For her, a drop of water is a well, a river.She is just a fish, either imprisoned, or she has to jump out, otherwise, she is not what she is now.
Lin Yawen smiled wryly, shook her head, and blasted out of her mind the turbulent past, including that face, including the shallow and deep pain, as well as hatred, and things other than the bleak pain...
He is now an important member of the provincial party committee.She sighed like this, reminding herself: You are still you, don't let the past overwhelm you.
Zheng Fengshi was waiting at the gate a long time ago. Compared with two months ago, he was obviously thinner, but he was so thin that he was energetic, and he had an extra-ordinary look. Compared with Hong Guangda around him, he was really a bit of a fairy The smell of bone.But Hong Guangda is more imposing than him, and more stylish than him. At first glance, Hong Guangda is the real leader of the group.
After the convoy stopped, Hong Guangda was the first to meet him. The smiles on his face were piled up too much.His behavior was even more excessive. He passed Secretary Sun Tao, then Qi Maolin, and came straight to Feng Qiao. He bowed, nodded, and exaggeratedly greeted Feng Qiao.A look of displeasure welled up on Feng Qiao's face, he didn't want Hong Guangda to be like this, how could he be like this?He reluctantly nodded his head, and instead of holding Hong Guangda's outstretched hands, he glanced past the crowd and directly looked at Zheng Fengshi's face.Zheng Fengshi just came over and greeted the leaders with a little restraint.Feng Qiao also didn't shake his hand, but just said lightly: "I heard that you left the flow pipe and went outside to find a job by yourself?"
Zheng Fengshi looked embarrassed, retracted his outstretched hands, and stood there awkwardly, waiting for Feng Qiao's criticism.Feng Qiao had already passed him, and greeted Lao Qiao, the chairman of the trade union who was coming up.Lin Yawen followed at the end, and none of Feng Qiao's actions escaped her attention.When it was her turn to say hello to Zheng Fengshi, she just said lightly: "Director Zheng must be in a good mood today, right?" After speaking, she followed Mayor Lin Haishi and went inside.
Another layer of embarrassment appeared on Zheng Fengshi's face.
The work report meeting was held soon, and the meeting was presided over by Zhao Xianyong, Secretary General of the Provincial Party Committee.According to the agenda, Zheng Fengshi, the director of the flow management department, will first report on the recent work of the flow management department. Unexpectedly, Zheng Fengshi is not ashamed, saying in front of the leaders attending the meeting that he has just returned from an inspection outside and does not have a good grasp of the recent work of the department. Chairman Qiao reports to the leaders.Zheng Fengshi's words surprised everyone.Lin Yawen saw that Secretary-General Zhao frowned and was about to get angry, but he smoothed things over and said, "Alright, let the comrades who are familiar with the work report." After speaking, he looked at Feng Qiao beside him.Feng Qiao had no expression on his face. From the moment he walked into the flow tube, his expression had always been like this, which was hard to fathom.
Qiao Renshan, the chairman of the labor union, began to report. It seemed that this was the division of labor in the flow management department in advance. Qiao Renshan was well prepared and reported for nearly forty minutes.In the middle, Secretary-General Zhao interrupted him twice and asked some specific matters, including the production status of the five small enterprises and the living conditions of the employees.Zeng Qing'an, the newly appointed director of the Water Conservancy Department, made supplements at the right time. Secretary-General Zhao was listening while taking notes, and from time to time, he had to turn his attention to Feng Qiao.It's a pity that during the whole reporting process, Feng Qiao seemed to have his heart elsewhere, and he didn't show any enthusiasm for the report at the flow tube.
Then Hong Guangda, the manager of the development company, reported. Hong Guang couldn't hold back early in the morning. As soon as Secretary-General Zhao called his name, he impatiently opened the file folder and read the materials loudly.Hong Guangda’s report was full of passion, especially when it came to the fact that the development company is market-oriented, seeks development through reform, and in the face of huge difficulties and resistance, is not afraid of progress and does not compromise, and consistently adheres to the fundamentals of development and forges ahead. , When he was bold and innovative, he was full of passion, and sang the boring words in the material like poetry.It was too hot, and the desert in June was when it was crazy. Heat waves came one after another, and the meeting room in the streamline department was not equipped with air conditioning. Dozens of people were packed in a hot jar, and it was impossible not to sweat.Hong Guangda was working hard on his report when Feng Qiao suddenly turned sideways, whispered something to Zhao Xianyong, got up, walked out of the meeting room, and walked towards the gate of the flow management office.
Outside the gate, under the blue sky, Seventy-Two was driving a flock of sheep towards Beihu.The vicious sun was about to kill the sheep. Seeing so many small carts lined up under the courtyard wall, the sheep scrambled to get under the carts.Seventy-two picked up a stone and wanted to hit the leader, but he didn't expect that the glass of a small car would be smashed as soon as the stone was thrown.Immediately, a driver ran out from the shade and grabbed Seventy-Two.
Feng Qiao glanced at the sheep, then at the drivers who were holding Seventy-Two, shook his head, turned and entered the yard.As soon as he entered the gate, there was a scolding sound from behind: "You stupid shepherd, dare to smash the car of the secretary of the provincial party committee, it's against you."
In the meeting room, Hong Guangda's voice weakened. As soon as Feng Qiao left, he vented his enthusiasm. The participants probably lacked interest in this kind of report, and seeing Secretary Feng Qiao leave the meeting place, whispers sounded.Secretary-General Zhao coughed, but still failed to control the order of the meeting place, and the meeting room was noisy for a while.
Feng Qiao wandered outside for a while, reckoning that Hong Guangda should have finished his report, shaking his spirits, he wanted to go to the meeting room.The mobile phone rang again. I looked at the number and wanted to press it, but it was connected quickly.A sweet female voice came from the phone: "Secretary Feng, I'm Rongrong."
Feng Qiao said "Oh", indicating that he already knew who the other party was.Hua Rongrong seemed to be in a particularly high mood that day, regardless of whether Feng Qiao was busy or not, it was inconvenient to answer the phone, and she talked a lot in one go.Feng Qiao listened, and became impatient, and said to Hua Rongrong, "I'm in a meeting, what's the matter, I'll talk about it later." After speaking, he pressed the phone and walked into the venue with a sullen face.
Hong Guangda's report was over, and Sun Tao, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, continued to report.
Qi Maolin and Lin Yawen were not included in the report on the first day. Secretary Sun Tao talked a lot that day, more than an hour longer than the meeting schedule. Regarding the reports of Hong Guangda and Qiao Renshan, Secretary Sun Tao raised a question: What? Called harmonious development?流管处和沙漠地区的农民，能否摒弃前嫌，联起手来，为沙漠地区和胡杨河流域的长足发展，闯出一条新路来？
第二天接着汇报，祁茂林第一个发言，发言的内容是提前准备好的，晚上住在流管处，他又跟林雅雯碰了次头，再三斟酌了词句。祁茂林的意思是，先把调子汇报低点，看冯桥听了怎么说。如果给县上的压力不是太大，能接受尽量接受，实在接受不了，再看孙涛书记和市上的态度。总之，县上要把困难摆足，要把沙漠地区农民的生存放在首位，至于流域综合治理，生态环境等大主题大帽子，暂不提。
祁茂林汇报了五点，都是些跟沙乡百姓息息相关的事，他的汇报改变了会议的调子，从夸夸其谈一下落到实处，入情入理，语调低沉，情感质朴，让会场气氛哗地凝重起来。
赵秘书长一直不停地记着，特别是祁茂林说到沙乡人现在最大的希望是什么，就是吃饭时碗里不再有沙子，他们吃沙子吃了几辈子啊！赵秘书长手里的笔，啪地断了！
冯桥脸色阴郁，祁茂林汇报时，他的目光有几次落在林雅雯脸上，林雅雯没有跟他对视，轻轻一挪，避开了。林雅雯在想，冯桥到现在一句话不说，他这次下来，究竟想解决啥问题？
在谈到流管处跟沙湾村农民的矛盾时，祁茂林没有往痛处捅，只说，农民爱认死理儿，有些理，跟他们真是讲不通。冯桥抬起目光，疑惑地望住祁茂林，祁茂林很快就将这话头收住了。
一个上午就这样过去了，中午吃饭时，孙涛书记将林雅雯唤到身边，边吃饭边问：“萌萌呢，回来没？”林雅雯脸一红，怎么这事也让孙涛书记知道了？见孙涛书记问得认真，她难为情地说：“还没呢，她非要闯世界，就让她闯好了。”孙涛书记沉吟一会儿，道：“萌萌这孩子，有个性，不过个性过了头，就成坏事了。雅雯啊，孩子的事，疏忽不得，等这阵忙完，我给你请假，多陪陪她。”
“谢谢书记。”林雅雯心里涌上一层暖。
孙涛书记不再说话，专下心来吃饭。午饭很简单，流管处食堂做的工作餐，这是赵秘书长特别强调了的。因为不用陪领导们在一桌上吃，林雅雯反而觉得这饭吃起来爽快。正低头吃着，市长林海诗端着盒饭走过来，悄声跟孙涛书记说：“首长发火哩，饭也不吃。”孙涛书记的手僵住，嘴里也没了咀嚼声，片刻，他问林海诗：“秘书长呢？”
“开完会他就回房间了，到现在还没出来。”
孙涛书记“哦”了一声，又低头吃饭。林海诗站了半天，不见孙涛书记有啥指示，便也找个凳子坐下，扒拉起饭来。
一看两位领导的表情，林雅雯草草吃完饭，逃也似地溜走了。
冯桥这次下来，真是能沉得住气。汇报会开了两天，大大小小的领导全都汇报完了，就连村支书胡二魁，也被通知到会场，发了十分钟言。按说他早就应该做指示了，所有的人都在等他做指示，等他定调子，尤其水利厅和林业厅的领导，眼巴巴的，等着他开口。
他偏是不开口。
两天里他的脸一直阴着，偶尔露一点阳光，也是因为别的事，只要一坐在会场，一面对参会的人，那份阴沉，就会罩住每个人的心。秘书长赵宪勇最为尴尬，汇报当中，他曾数次把目光投过去，可每一次他的目光都会被碰回来，到最后，他也吃不准了，这样汇报下去，究竟能解决什么问题？
汇报会行将结束时，冯桥紧绷着的脸终于松弛下来，他挪动了下身子，准备开口讲话了。
与会者全都松了一口气。林雅雯心里，也一阵松弛，要是冯桥再不开口讲话，她脑子里紧着的那根弦就要绷断了。两天的汇报会，林雅雯已听到不少批评的声音，特别是水利厅长曾庆安，两度发言，两次都将矛头指向她跟祁茂林，说他们是典型的小农经济，小农意识，缺少大战略、大思维。体改委孙主任也在发言中指出，县上不应该只顾及自己的利益，不应该将县域经济的发展和整个流域的发展分割开来，只有整个流域发展了，沙湖的经济才能被带动，也只有整个流域的生态保住了，沙湖的生态才能保住。总之，省上几家单位的领导已把意见明确表示出来，流管处的改革，势在必行，这是一场攻坚战，关系到全省事业单位的改革能否取得最终胜利，更关系到胡杨河流域下一步的治理与发展。
调子被人为拔高，一家事业单位的改革，突然就成了全省聚焦的政治事件。林雅雯不能不多想。
还有，这些领导的讲话，事先不可能不征求冯桥的意见，至少，在大方向上，是经过冯桥点头的。尽管冯桥到现在一句话不讲，但他的主张，他的要求，已经分明摆在了会上。林雅雯怀着万分之一的侥幸，期望冯桥能在讲话中将调子稍稍变一下。
冯桥轻轻推开水杯，目光环视了一遍会场，道：“汇报会开得很好，听了方方面面的发言，我感触很深。胡杨河是一条历史悠久的河，是我们全省人民的母亲河，这条河里发生的故事，真是太多太多，相信在座每一位，对这条河系都有深厚的感情，对河系及流域下一步的治理与发展，都抱着殷切的希望。省委省政府对此决心很大，前不久，海林同志已代表省委专门向中央做了汇报，胡杨河流域的发展，事关全局。海林同志要求我们，一定要本着对流域两千万群众负责的态度，本着对这条河系负责的态度，认真解决流域内的每一个问题。特别是对流域曾经做出贡献的单位，他们在过去的若干年里，默默奉献，不讲回报，是流域的功臣。如今他们遇到了困境，我们就应该伸出手来，拉他们一把。当然，他们自身也要顽强拼搏，不能等不能靠，更不能躺在功劳簿上。汇报会提出了不少问题，流管处和县上也从不同角度提出了各自的意见和建议，这很好，省上几家部门要认真研究，广泛讨论，帮他们拿出一个统筹解决问题的方案。下去之后，由体改委牵头，其他部门配合，成立一个工作组，在省委要求的时间内，拿出一个系统的方案来。时间不等人，工作不等人，我希望大家都有点紧迫感，讲点奉献精神，一鼓作气，把这个老大难问题解决掉。”
听到这儿，林雅雯就知道，事情已经没了回旋的余地，祁茂林的担心一点也不为过，县上等着接烂摊子吧。
果然，汇报会后，赵秘书长主持召开了一个特别会议，按照冯桥在会上的要求，省市县三级成立了一个联合工作组。体改委孙主任任组长，水利厅曾庆安、市长林海诗分别任副组长。县上只有祁茂林参加，林雅雯被排除在外。出乎意料，流管处处长郑奉时竟然不在工作组之内，代表流管处参加的，一个是工会主席乔仁山，一个，竟是洪光大。事后林雅雯才从祁茂林那儿听到，所谓的工作小组，在省上领导下来之前就已定了，只不过一直没公布。当时是想让孙涛书记担任组长的，孙涛书记婉言谢绝，这才让孙主任挂帅。至于郑奉时，他早就被排斥在外。祁茂林还说，汇报会上那番话，郑奉时也是无奈之下才说的，事实是上面早就定好让乔仁山发言。
流管处的日常工作已移交到乔仁山手中，就差一道任命手续。
真有这回事？林雅雯震惊了。
随后发生的事，更让林雅雯震惊。工作组刚一成立，马上便投入工作。就在林雅雯等人陪同冯桥去青土湖实地考察的这一天，工作组做出一项决议：流管处在沙湖县境内的五家中小企业，全部划拨给沙湖县政府，由县上接管。相比先前传闻的向县上出售，这项决议算是照顾了县上。可是等林雅雯跟祁茂林一算帐，才知道划拨比出售更令他们头痛。why?划拨的同时，工作组提出一项要求，五家企业的职工，一并由县上安置，县上要保证两年内让五家企业起死回生，职工有饭吃，等于是把流管处最大的包袱甩给了县上。五家企业将近三千名职工，加上职工家属，沙湖县政府一下就背了八千多号人的负担。这对财政十分吃紧，就业难度本来就很大的县上来说，等于是雪上加霜。
“为什么不反对？”林雅雯觉得不可思议，会是祁茂林参加的，祁茂林应该站出来反对。
“怎么反对？”祁茂林反问道。
“你……”林雅雯本来有一肚子话要说，一看祁茂林脸色，说不下去了。仅仅一场会，祁茂林就老去不少。他承受的压力，想必已是很大。
“怎么办，真要接管？”她像是自言自语，目光，却一直投在祁茂林脸上。
“不接管还能咋？雅雯，这事上别再争了，我怕后面还有更棘手的。”祁茂林说完，不语了。
“后面？”林雅雯怔怔地坐在了椅子上。
第二天，林雅雯跟孙涛书记继续陪着冯桥在流域内考察。冯桥闭口不谈企业移交的事，走到哪，都在问农民的生活状况。他已连续转了三个乡镇，林雅雯生怕这个过程中发生啥意外，在电话里反复跟乡镇领导交代，一定要把警戒工作做好。所幸，将近两天时间，村民们并没表现出啥过激行为。就在林雅雯刚要松口气的当儿，祁茂林打来电话，说流管处这边出事了，五家企业的职工把他们围住了！
围堵事件是在上午十点四十发生的，当时工作小组在开会，祁茂林提出，厂子可以接管，但省上必须将职工的养老金及大病医疗保险解决了，这一块县上确实没办法。水利厅长曾庆安说：“那么多资产全交给了你，这点小问题，就别再纠缠了。”
“怎么能是纠缠？”祁茂林据理相争，“我了解这些厂子，职工三年没发全工资，只拿最低生活金，原来给家属的生活保障金也取消了。大病医疗和养老金这一块，五家企业怎么也得三千多万，这钱从哪来？”
“先想办法启动生产，厂子一启动，不就啥也有了？”曾庆安不耐烦地说。
“如果能启动，它会三年闲放在那里？”祁茂林的口气也不大友好。
“这个问题先放着，回去我们再研究。如果省上能支持，一定会支持的。”孙主任打断祁茂林说。
“不行，这问题解决不了，接管就是句空话。”祁茂林噌地站了起来。还是林雅雯说得对，一味地让步，最终被套住脚步的，是县上！
“老祁，要顾全大局嘛。”孙主任的话音还没落，外面就传来一片吵闹声。乔仁山走出去一看，五家厂子的职工黑压压一片，堵在了大门口。领头的，是预制厂厂长陈根发。
陈根发这人，要说也是个人物。他最早是当兵出身，转业后来到流管处，从水泥工做起，一步步干到了预制厂厂长。此人办事雷厉风行，保持着部队上的优良传统。流管处工程项目多的那些年，他带领全厂职工，没明没夜，奋战在生产一线，将小小的预制厂发展成为全流域效益最好规模最大的预制厂。他本人也多次获得省、部级奖励，并当选为全国劳动模范。然而，四年前因为一次恶性事故，他的右腿残疾了，紧跟着，流管处效益滑坡，工人找不到活干，预制厂陷入瘫痪。这几年，他一方面要为自己的伤腿筹措医药费，一方面又要为全厂一千多号工人的生活奔走，成了流管处最有名的上访户。乔仁山对这个人，很是头痛。过去的几年里，就因为他是工会主席，陈根发没少找过他，每次，他都让陈根发问得张口结舌。
“根发，把人带回去，有啥问题等领导们走了再解决。”乔仁山板起面孔训道。
陈根发没理乔仁山，在众人的簇拥下，拄着拐杖，继续往里走。
“老陈，你想干啥？今天是啥日子，不许你胡来！”乔仁山急了，这一大群人要是涌进去，流管处就乱套了。
“啥日子，今天是解决问题的日子。”陈根发停下脚步，转身盯住乔仁山。
“对，解决问题。不把问题解决清，休想把我们打发走！”走在陈根发后面的预制厂刘副厂长说。刘副厂长号称陈根发的铁腿子，陈根发说啥，他听啥。过去预制厂红火的时候，这两人是流域内最有影响力的人，特别是在工人中间，威信比乔仁山和郑奉时还要高。后来流域内企业相继关门，他们又成了工人上访请愿的带头人。今天这一大群人，准是刘副厂长发动来的。
乔仁山不想跟他们发生冲突，眼下不是跟工人发生冲突的时候，必须想办法，让他们冷静下来。可想什么办法呢？就在乔仁山犯犹豫的当儿，洪光大走了过来，拦在陈根发前面说：“是赶集还是闹社火？人多力量大，想给上面领导施加压力是不？”
洪光大一向跟陈刘二人有矛盾，早在洪光大还没当开发公司经理前，就因一项五十万元的预制件加工任务，跟陈刘两位厂长闹翻过脸。预制厂按期交了预制件，洪光大却迟迟不付款，后来又以预制件质量不合格造成工程返工为由，反过来向预制厂索赔。这事最终还是水利厅出面调解的，预制厂虽然拿到了款，却把洪光大给开罪了。等洪光大当上开发公司经理，预制厂这边，业务量一年比一年少，洪光大宁可把活给到外地的小厂，也不交给陈根发他们做。预制厂最后被迫关门，跟洪光大有很大关系。但这些，陈刘两位是讲不出口的，洪光大有千条万条理由，随便一条，就能把预制厂的活路给卡断。人家是搞竞标，每次都通知你参加，就是不把标中给你，你有啥法？
“让开！”一看洪光大人五人六地横在面前，陈根发胸腔里的火腾就冒了上来。本来，他今天带着一千多号工人，只是想问问，流管处凭啥要把他们交给县上，怎么个交法？拖欠几年的工资，怎么算？老职工的退休金，哪里发？还有养老金大病医疗等，这些问题怎么解决？厂子不是没挣过钱，挣的钱到现在有一半还被各单位拖欠着，欠债最多的，就是开发公司。因为开发公司负责全流域的项目建设，预制厂提供给各工程单位的预制件，最终都要跟开发公司结算。这是水利厅独一无二的体制，也是令陈根发们想不通的体制。明明是国家投资的工程项目，转手一倒，就成了开发公司的自主项目，开发公司不给工程单位钱，他们的预制件款就收不回来，三角债拖到最后，成了四角债五角债，现在竟然成了问不响的债。洪光大呢，摇身一变，反倒成了流管处的改革人物，眼下又成了改革小组的成员，再次操纵起他们的命运来。
“请你让开！”陈根发又说了一遍。
“让开，你想让我往哪让？”洪光大一点都不在乎陈根发，更不在乎后面这一堆人。在他看来，工人任何时候都是工人，是没有资格跟领导阶层讲条件的。
“你让不让？”陈根发的话头已很不友好了，他的目光着了火，胸腔内的火烧得更旺。
“出去，你最好把人给我带出去！”洪光大今天气势逼人，他想在省厅领导面前表现自己。可他没想到，今天的工人们不吃他这一套。
“打这狗日的！”还没容洪光大再说第二句，一直搀着陈根发的预制厂材料员小侯子吼了一声。这一声吼，像个炸弹，腾就把工人们心里窝着的火给炸着了。没等洪光大反应过来，雨点般的拳头已向他砸来，等曾庆安他们闻声赶出来时，洪光大已被工人们连打带摔扔到了大院外面。
事态闹大了。
林雅雯心急火燎赶回流管处，保卫科的人已将工人们分开，按厂子集中在一起。预制厂来的工人最多，黑压压蹲了一墙根，其他四家厂子相对少点。这也难怪，另外四家厂子的领导眼下都在洪光大的开发公司担任项目部经理，早跟工人不是一回事了。流域内五家厂子的职工，能指望的，眼下只有陈根发。
陈根发被省厅曾庆安叫去了，正在挨批。带头打人的小侯子已被扭送到了派出所，跟小侯子一同带走的，还有七个人。林雅雯扫了一眼现场，心情沉重。祁茂林走过来，阴着脸说：“现场太混乱了，差点出人命。”
“洪光大呢？”
“送医院了。”
"how so?"
“工人们一听要把厂子交县上，都不乐意。”
“那也不能聚众闹事啊，动不动就打人，谁教他们的！”林雅雯一边发着火，一边四下张望，半天不见郑奉时的影，心里的疑惑就重了：“郑大厂长呢？”
“你还说他呢，工人们围攻领导的时候，他站在边上看热闹，这阵要处理工人了，他又缩起脖子，不见人影了。”祁茂林也是一肚子火，刚才工人们情绪太激烈，围住曾庆安和孙主任不让走，如果不是保安下手快，小侯子就把曾庆安也打了。怕是曾庆安和孙主任都不会想到，小侯子是祁茂林的外甥，当初招工，还是祁茂林通过关系把他弄到预制厂的。
“这个孽障！”祁茂林愤愤骂了一句，听见乔仁山在远处叫他，丢下林雅雯走了。
联合工作组的工作被迫停了下来。领导们对这起围攻事件很为光火，尤其是曾庆安，他黑着脸批评了一通陈根发，当场免了他的厂长职务。陈根发一点不在乎，他道：“这个厂长还有意义么，厂子都让你们折腾光了，再折腾，就是折腾我们老百姓的命了。”
“你——！”曾庆安被他气的，都不知道怎么发火了。
乔仁山跑里跑外，出了这大的事，他责任最大。一方面他怕冯桥副书记追究，尽管工人闹事时冯桥跟赵宪勇都不在现场，可这样大的动静，他们能不知道？另一方面，他又怕陈根发跟老刘不甘心，这两个人的脾气他知道，臭得很，如果真把他俩逼急了，这改革，说啥也进行不下去。他耐着性子，这边跟曾庆安和孙主任做检讨，那边又跑去跟陈根发和刘副厂长搞安抚。内心里，乔仁山是不想揽这档子差事的，他巴不得学郑奉时那样，清静自在，反正流管处破了产，他乔仁山的日子也能过得去。五十多岁的人了，能退就退，不能退，随便找个事做便成。谁知半月前他被曾庆安叫去，如此这般叮嘱一番，说这是冯副书记的意见，让他做好准备，接郑奉时的班。乔仁山服从领导服从了一辈子，厅长亲自找他谈话，焉能不听？没想这是一个罐，套在头上就再也取不掉。
半小时后，孙主任主持召开会议，商量怎么处理这起严重的暴乱事件。“这是一场有预谋的暴乱，对当事人，决不能客气！”孙主任开口说。曾庆安紧绷着脸，他的气还没有消，堂堂水利厅长，差点让小侯子这样的小混混暴打一顿，这在他的人生中，还是第一次。
“郑奉时呢，他怎么不参加会议？”等孙主任讲完，曾庆安黑着脸问。
“我叫了，他说身体不舒服，请假。”乔仁山紧忙回答。
“请假，谁给他准
