Chapter 14 Chapter Fourteen

It was late when Zhu Huaijing came back from a social event, but there were some people sitting at home.When Xiangmei opened the door, she was all smiles, as if she was having a pleasant conversation with the guests.The guests all stood up, and Zhu Huaijing shook hands with them one by one.Shao Yunhong also came, and it was his first visit.There were also people Zhu Huaijing didn't recognize, and Xiangmei introduced them.Everyone said that Secretary Zhu worked too hard.He had just drank some wine, his face was flushed, refreshed, and he shook his head and smiled.He sat down, but had nothing to say.He casually asked, how is it?The person being asked didn't know what he wanted to know, and the one who was unresponsive just froze and panicked.Often before people get a clear answer, he would oh-oh twice and ask other people.We all know that this kind of conversation is meaningless, it is nothing more than looking for something to say.Zhu Huaijing asked each of them one by one, then nodded and leaned back on the sofa.He smiled, his eyes blank.This gaze is almost the same as that of Chairman Mao's standard portrait, it seems to be watching everyone, but in fact he does not look at anyone.The guests were looking for something to chat with him, but he didn't say much, just nodded with a smile.

For about half an hour, Shao Yunhong stood up and said, "Secretary Zhu is working too hard, so I won't bother you." Everyone else stood up.Xiangmei went in and took some cigarettes out, one for each of them.They all said no, no, shaking their hands and pushing them out.Zhu Huaijing smiled and said, "This is my wife's intention. Please accept her favor and let her be virtuous once." Yasha." The guests accepted the cigarettes and thanked them very much.Someone pinched the cigarette under his armpit, and immediately felt disrespectful, and hurriedly held it in both hands; someone originally held the cigarette in the right hand, and hurriedly changed the cigarette to the left hand for fear of missing a handshake; someone repeatedly looked at the cigarette in his hand. , couldn't hold back the smile on his face.

Zhu Huaijing asked Shao Yunhong to stay and talk about something.After seeing off the other guests and closing the door, Zhu Huaijing said, "Xiao Shao, why are you here to join in the fun?" After hearing this, Shao Yunhong felt that he was very close to Zhu Huaijing, so he chuckled, scratched his head, and said, "I've never visited Secretary Zhu, so I'm sorry. Secretary Zhu cares about me very much." Zhu Huaijing said: "Xiao Shao is good. I just went to Mashan for research, and it's been hard work. Last time I went there, I just took a look at the flowers. You have done the research seriously and have the right to speak. Tell me, how is the situation?"

Zhu Huaijing had already listened to the research report, but today he asked about this matter again, so there is no meaning.Shao Yunhong understood and said cautiously: "The experience of Zaolin is indeed very distinctive. However, I will report to Secretary Zhu individually today, and I will tell the truth. It is completely correct in theory to say that organizational construction promotes the economy. But when it comes to writing, If we insist on bringing in some specific economic work, it will violate the objective facts. For example, Zaolin Village has had the habit of growing jujubes since ancient times. Many jujube trees are said to have been planted many years ago, and some are even old jujube trees planted before the founding of the People’s Republic of China. But in order to write an article, it is false to insist that this is the result of strengthening the organization in recent years. In addition, the jujube trees in the entire Mashan County have problems of poor varieties, aging jujube forests, and market risks. The economic benefit is not good. However, in order to write an article, I insist on taking it for granted, saying how much the jujube tree has increased the income of the farmers, which is false again.”

Zhu Huaijing nodded, looking thoughtful, and then said: "I read the signed article you wrote to Secretary Miao about Zaolin's experience, and it's pretty good." Shao Yunhong smiled and said, "How can we write such a high-level article? Secretary Miao wrote it himself." Zhu Huaijing heard something in Shao Yunhong's words, but he only pretended to be confused.From this point of view, Zaolin's experience does have some merits, but it is inevitable to have moisture when writing an article; and this article, which has moisture in the first place, is almost fake after being flowered by Miao Ming's wonderful pen.Zhu Huaijing was afraid that Shao Yunhong would reveal this meaning, so he asked some trivial matters in life.The more detailed he asked, the more considerate he seemed.Shao Yunhong felt warm in his heart, but secretly regretted that he should not tell the truth.

Zhu Huaijing brought the topic back again, "Mashan's experience, of course, is mainly Zaolin's experience, and the higher-ups attach great importance to it. Minister Fan of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee called me today and said that Secretary Wang specifically intervened. Minister Fan told me, Secretary Wang believes that Mashan’s experience should highlight the theme of organizational construction and economic development. Secretary Wang is very interested and said that he will come to see it in person when he has time. I think Mashan will become a contact point for Comrade Wang Mangzhi.”

Shao Yunhong began to sweat, knowing that he had indeed said something inappropriate.It is not allowed to make irresponsible remarks below what has been confirmed by the above.He couldn't take back what he said, so he kept nodding.But he always wanted to save something, so he said: "Secretary Zhu, in fact, it is most appropriate to publish that article in your name. You are in charge of this work, and you have done research yourself." Zhu Huaijing hurriedly interrupted him, saying: "Little Shao, don't say that. The higher authorities attach great importance to this work. It is an important work that concerns the overall situation. It must be published in the name of Comrade Miao Ming. Good for starting work."

Shao Yunhong nodded after listening.Suddenly he said: "Secretary Zhu, Chen Changyun's "Xinglin Xianyin" has a very good business. I went to see it again today, and there are a lot of people." "Oh, is it?" Zhu Huaijing just replied lightly, thinking that this is not something worthy of his concern after all.But they were afraid that they would be too cold, Shao Yunhong and the others would not care about it, and it would ruin their business.Then he said casually: "You can help others as much as possible." Shao Yunhong nodded and said: "Okay, I will give him some ideas. As long as I write some small articles and publish them in newspapers from time to time, it will be a soft advertisement. You don't need to charge him." Zhu Huaijing just nodded without saying anything.Shao Yunhong seemed to want to say something else, but Zhu Huaijing had already got up and shook hands with him, and said, "Okay, that's it. You can come and sit if you have time, and you are not allowed to learn from them. It's complicated. Not bad, not bad, Xiao Shao."

After Shao Yunhong left, Zhu Huaijing couldn't help but let out a long sigh.I'm really tired.He went in to check his son's homework and was about to take a bath.Xiangmei said, "Qiqi is harder than us going to work." Zhu Huaijing sighed, "What's wrong with the school? It turns the students into homework machines. It's just the beginning of school!" The phone rang again, and Zhu Huaijing waved his hands and blinked. , went into the bathroom. After taking a shower, Zhu Huaijing said, "After ten o'clock in the evening, I unplug the phone." After thinking about it, I couldn't do it. I was afraid that if something important was missed, "I can't help it, I'd better ask you to answer the phone."

The son is already asleep.Zhu Huaijing was wearing short clothes and shorts, sitting on the sofa.He wanted to sit for a few minutes before going to sleep.Xiangmei also sat down and asked, "Everyone is saying that Miao Ming is going to be promoted to become the deputy mayor. People ask me, but I say I don't know. They say I still keep some secrets." "Where does that come from?" Zhu Huaijing smiled, "It seems that everyone is the head of the organization these days, and can arrange the appointment and dismissal of cadres at will." Xiangmei said, "I still talk about you, saying that you are going to take over as the secretary of the prefectural committee."

Zhu Huaijing hurriedly said: "Whoever said that to you, you have to say something to him, and be more serious." Xiangmei said, "What right do I have to criticize people casually?" Zhu Huaijing said: "Why are you not qualified? In principle, you have to be like this." It turned out that not long ago, the headline on the front page of "Jingdu Daily" published Miao Ming's signed article: "The Practice and Experience of Zaolin Village".The topic looks very modest, but it is actually an introduction of experience.Anyone who knows the routine knows that this kind of article is by no means published casually.Either some major political move is on the way, or someone is going to be big soon.And no matter what the situation is, someone must be promoted.Overnight, people everywhere in Meici were inquiring: I heard that Miao Ming was going to be promoted to be the deputy mayor.Being in the officialdom is like queuing up to buy food in a big cafeteria.If someone moves in front, the rear has to follow suit.But it is a cafeteria that is not very orderly. Some people have a good relationship with the master, so they ran to the front to jump in line.After a long time, people don't care much about whether someone moves in front of them, and they always watch who will jump in line.Even if someone cuts the queue, the people behind will have to sulk. Who told you not to have a good relationship with the master? Xiangmei said again: "Simao called me today and said he wanted to do business here." Zhu Huaijing said: "You can do business everywhere, why come here? Umeci is not a commercial city, and money is not easy to make." Xiangmei said: "That's needless to say? He just wanted us to take care of him. He wanted to come and open a restaurant, but I turned back. He meant that he wanted us to bring some people to eat at his place. Isn't that a joke?" Zhu Huaijing said: "Simao really, you have worked with us in Jingdu for so long, why haven't you made any progress?" "I thought, I still need to help. He said later that he wanted to open a grocery store here and start a small business, so I didn't say anything." Xiangmei said and looked at Zhu Huaijing. It was inconvenient for Zhu Huaijing to say more, so he just said, "It's your cousin, you can figure it out." Xiangmei sighed: "I can't help it, he's too close. I still have to find a face for him." Zhu Huaijing said, "Okay, it's up to you. Just pay attention to the impact. Go to sleep." The next afternoon, Yuan Zhifeng came to Zhu Huaijing's office and said he had something to report. "Brother Zhifeng, you are in front of me, don't report every word, I really can't afford it! Please sit down, please sit down." Zhu Huaijing poured tea himself without calling Zhao Yipu over.Yuan Zhifeng hurriedly said that he came by himself, took the tea with both hands, took a sip, and just about to speak, Zhu Huaijing handed over the cigarette again and lit it for him. "Secretary Zhu, I must trouble you about this matter." Yuan Zhifeng then said, "The third phase of the technical renovation of the cigarette factory, Mashan is about to invite bids. Comrade Tianyi has been working on this project himself. He found me this morning , saying that he has been too busy recently and wants me to take over and start the bidding work. I think this is a big deal, and I want to discuss it with you for fear of mistakes. My personal opinion is that you should be in charge.” Zhu Huaijing smiled and said: "Zhifeng, you are pushing the burden! You are the deputy commissioner in charge of industry, so it is only natural that you are in command." Yuan Zhifeng said: "It's not that I'm lazy, it's really a big deal. The investment of more than 50 million yuan is a big project for us, it's not a joke!" Zhu Huaijing nodded slightly for a moment, then pondered and said: "I think this matter must be reported to Comrade Miao Ming, and the prefectural committee will make a decision. It cannot be decided between you and me." Yuan Zhifeng said: "That's natural. I want to talk to you first, and then report to Secretary Miao. I think Secretary Miao will agree with me. Comrade Tianyi will also talk to Comrade Miao Ming." Zhu Huaijing had no choice but to say: "Let's leave it at that. Zhifeng, please tell me the general situation. I have never asked about this project. Comrade Tianyi personally grasped it." Yuan Zhifeng said: "The second phase of the project was put into use the year before last, and the effect was very good. Comrade Tianyi was personally responsible for it, and the relevant departments above were very satisfied with this project. Comrade Tianyi devoted a lot of energy to this project and achieved If it is successful, it is worthwhile to strive for the third phase of the project. The third phase of the project began to be submitted for approval the year before last, and it was finalized last year, and the funds have only recently been in place. The current situation is that the equipment contracts have been signed, and Comrade Tianyi I caught it myself. This time, the bidding is for civil engineering, with a project volume of 18 million yuan." "Okay. Zhifeng, let's ask the prefectural committee to study it as soon as possible. I would like to ask you to give an introduction to the overall situation of this project at the meeting. Other leading comrades may not be clear about it. Everyone has a bottom line in their hearts, so we can help get it idea.” Zhu Huaijing thought to himself that a project worth more than 18 million yuan would be avoided by everyone like a plague god, and there was something wrong in the middle, so it’s better to make this matter clear, “Comrade Zhifeng, the current corruption in the construction field, It is a hot spot of public concern, so don’t be careless. I think the bidding work must be carried out in strict accordance with the principles of openness, fairness, and justice. If the prefectural committee assigns me to be in charge, I can participate in the research of the plan, but please take care of the specific work.” Yuan Zhifeng said with a smile: "Naturally, I do specific work." Zhu Huaijing also laughed, "Brother Zhifeng, you can't forget to criticize me in different ways!" The two chatted a few more words, and Yuan Zhifeng left.Zhao Yipu sent several letters over and said, "Secretary Zhu, please read these for yourself." Zhu Huaijing said yes, but he didn't have time to read them right now.The common people read the reports of his private visits and making friends with farmers, and they wrote to him whenever they had anything to do, mostly to sue and report, and some wrote specifically to praise him as a good official.This is a pain for Zhao Yipu, it takes half a day to open and read letters every day.It also caused problems for Zhu Huaijing himself. Some things came up later, so he couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb.After a while, Zhao Yipu came over to refill him some tea, and seeing that he hadn't read the letter, he took a letter and said, "Secretary Zhu, please read this letter first." "What important letter?" Zhu Huaijing finished speaking and pulled out the letter.When I saw it, I was suddenly dumbfounded.It was a report letter, with a striking title at the top: "Ten Crimes Against Yin Zhengdong". 1. He opened his bloody mouth wide and extorted and accepted bribes wantonly.As a county magistrate, Yin Zhengdong failed the expectations of the people, forgot the great trust of the people, and used his power to amass money crazily.There are five main ways for him to collect ill-gotten gains: one is to take over construction projects and seek benefits from them.For the county grain building project alone, Yin Zhengdong accepted more than 1.5 million yuan in bribes from Hu Laoer, the contractor.According to estimates by insiders, Yin Zhengdong has accepted more than 10 million yuan in bribes from construction contractors in the county in the past three years.The second is to sell officials and accept bribes from cadres below.Yin Zhengdong is domineering and has a domineering style. He holds the power of personnel and interferes with the normal organization and personnel system. He has to nod to promote officials.Whether cadres can be promoted and reused depends on how much money you give Yin Zhengdong... 2. Form cliques and attack dissidents... At this time, Liu Hao called, "Secretary Zhu, hello. I would like to invite you over for a meal, is it convenient?" Zhu Huaijing asked: "I eat food everywhere. What's the matter with you?" Liu Hao said: "I'm very sorry. I have a few business friends here, all of whom are very nice young people. It is a great honor to be interviewed by you. I would like to ask you to give me a favor, and let me, Xiao Liu Look better on your face." Zhu Huaijing smiled and said, "Your little Liu has a good-looking face, young and handsome. Alright, let me come. It's settled, just eat and don't talk about anything else!" Liu Hao was already very happy, "It's enough for Secretary Zhu to show your face, thank you! I'll pick you up." "No need to pick it up, I'll do it myself." Zhu Huaijing said. Zhu Huaijing then finished reading the letter, was silent for a moment, and said, "Yipu, you must keep your mouth shut. This is a very serious matter, and you must not leak a single drop." Zhao Yipu nodded and said: "Secretary Zhu, don't worry. I think Yin Zhengdong is a bit strange. Last time in Zaolin Village, you put away that note, and later he came to me and asked about that note. I also I don’t know the content of that note, and he said I’m not friend enough.” Zhu Huaijing said: "You don't want to comment on this matter, and don't speculate about it. Just don't know anything." Zhao Yipu nodded, bowed his head and went out without saying a word. When he was about to get off work, Miao Ming called, "Huai Jing, Comrade Zhifeng has been looking for you. I agree with him. Please take command of the tobacco factory's bidding. It's good for Comrade Tianyi to avoid it .” Miao Ming knew there was something in his words, but Zhu Huaijing just pretended to be confused and said, "I obey Secretary Miao's arrangement. But I think it's better to invite the prefectural committee to hold a meeting to study this issue specifically." Miao Ming said, "I agree. Just hold a meeting in a few days." This is a printed anonymous letter, and I don't know how many have been sent out.There must be one on Miao Ming's desk, I'm afraid I've read it long ago.Let's see how he handles it?Zhu Huaijing had long guessed that Yin Zhengdong was not a good bird, otherwise where would he get 100,000 yuan to give away?Fortunately, the money has already been disposed of, and if it is delayed, something will happen.Something will happen to Yin Zhengdong sooner or later, and some people will definitely be brought out. Several minutes have passed since the off-duty time, and Zhu Huaijing still has no intention of leaving.He wanted to sit for a while and let Liu Hao and the others wait.Zhao Yipu came over and reminded: "Secretary Zhu, I'm off work." Zhu Huaijing said: "You go back first, and let Yang Chong wait for me below." Zhao Yipu still wanted to wait, but seeing Zhu Huaijing's sombre face, he made a smiling face, closed the door and left. Thinking of Miao Ming's phone call just now, I spent a lot of time thinking about it.Did he really have something to do with Lu Tianyi?Otherwise, how could a person like Miao Ming, who is so deep in the city, speak so bluntly?But now it's not surprising that anyone has a problem.Maybe Yuan Zhifeng also saw something, otherwise how could he push this project out?Everyone can't wait to have a project in their hands.Then if Zhu Huaijing takes over the tobacco factory project, he will be the focus of thousands of people. Look at the time, it is already six twenty-five.Liu Hao naturally didn't dare to call to remind him.Zhu Huaijing put on his bag and went downstairs.The road was blocked again.Yang Chong cursed at his mother, turned around and went into the alley.After passing this alley, we arrived at the Shuguang Market.The big market closed early, and it was cold and smoky.There is no business here during the day, and the business households always gather at the gate of the prefectural committee to petition for the front rent and management fees.A few years ago, when it was said to vigorously develop the market economy, officials from all over the country thought it was to build market facilities.So in many places, various markets were built indiscriminately.Umeji was no exception. The Shuguang Market was built in a rush of bees at that time. "This place, if you come alone at night, you may be afraid of ghosts!" Yang Chong said. Zhu Huaijing didn't answer, just glanced at the passing facade outside.I thought it was a pity, really a pity.He felt a little heavy, so he wanted to strengthen his spirits so that he could not go to see the guests with a sour face. Liu Hao saw Zhu Huaijing's car from a distance, rubbed his hands together, and greeted him.Zhu Huaijing shook hands with him casually, and walked straight forward.Liu Hao hurriedly walked ahead to lead the way, stretching his hands forward, and kept saying please.After entering the box, seeing that there were indeed several young people, they all stood up and called Secretary Zhu, hello.It turned out that Grandpa Liu Hao cooperated with Beijing to open a joint venture hotel, also called Black Swan.The one who came today was Cheng Yi, the manager of Beijing Black Swan Mainland, and the others were all his subordinates. After sitting down, Chengyi greeted again: "Secretary Zhu, as soon as I came here, Mr. Liu told me about you. He respects you very much." Zhu Huaijing said: "Xiao Liu is good. I support his work, as it should be. Welcome Mr. Cheng to come to Meiji as a guest. If you have any dissatisfaction, let Liu Hao tell me." Cheng Yi hurriedly said: "Where is it? Warm hospitality and simple folk customs. What a great place!" Zhu Huaijing said with a smile: "Guests from developed areas always praise them for their beautiful mountains and rivers and simple folk customs when they go to backward areas." Cheng Yi felt embarrassed, "Secretary Zhu is very humorous, and critics are also very artistic. I'm telling the truth. When you go to Beijing at this time, the wind and sand are very strong, and the eyes are gray when you open your eyes. It's not like Meiji. How good the air is!" Zhu Huaijing said: "In a sense, in recent years, the so-called beautiful mountains and rivers and simple folk customs have become a sign of backwardness. But I think that as long as we make the best use of the situation, this is actually our advantage. Now, environmental issues are a worldwide topic. , and the crisis of business ethics and business credit is a common problem in China, so I say that an environment and a people's customs are all invaluable resources. I'm sorry, talking about economic issues in front of you entrepreneurs is a trick." Cheng Yi looked admiring, "Where there is, I have benefited a lot. Secretary Zhu, I am an MBA graduate from Harvard Business School in the United States. I have been back to China for four years. I have contacted many officials, some of them are very big officials. But It is the first time I have encountered someone like you who can regard folk customs, including business ethics and business credit, as economic resources." Zhu Huaijing didn't have time to be modest, Liu Hao hurriedly said: "Our secretary Zhu is the most thoughtful leader of Umeji, and he sees problems uniquely and insightfully. Come, the food is here. Secretary Zhu, should we still drink red wine?" "According to me, I don't drink any wine." Zhu Huaijing laughed. Liu Hao said, "Let's have a glass of red wine today." Zhu Huaijing said: "Okay. Mr. Cheng, like you, it's great to learn something and do some real work. Come on, I'll take the lead. Let's borrow Xiao Liu's wine and welcome Mr. Cheng to come here again!" " After finishing a drink, Cheng Yi said: "According to China's national conditions, there is a need for a large number of capable leaders like you, Secretary Zhu. After all, it is a politically dominated society!" Zhu Huaijing said a few words modestly, and then smiled: "It seems that I can talk with Mr. Cheng. I have an elite theory. I don't know if Mr. Cheng and Xiao Liu agree or disagree. I think that the elites in China can only be quasi-elites, or That is to say, it is generally impossible to become a real elite. This is the conclusion drawn from comparison with Western countries. In Western countries, the real top talents gather in the industrial and commercial circles. They are the direct creators of social wealth and are the social elites. Only second-rate talents go to politics. In China, the elites are relatively concentrated in party and government agencies, and those who have no chance to enter the agency go to business or other industries. However, those elites in Western countries who enter the business world, because of mechanism reasons, the overall If you can make the best use of your talents and get corresponding rewards, they will become more outstanding and become real elites; what about our country? Even if you are really a top student in a famous university, after you have been in the institution for many years, except If you can speak a few empty official words, you have nothing to do, you can only be a quasi-elite. In this sense, our talent quality is generally lower than others. In comparison, others are superior. The superior ones are better, while the superior ones become mediocre, and the mediocre ones become more mediocre. It can be said that if this problem is not resolved, it will be a national disaster. There is another difference: other people’s elites do everything possible to make the cake bigger; our elites But what I think about all the time is dividing the cake, and I always think about getting an extra piece for myself. Fortunately, the situation is getting better and better. There are a group of really outstanding talents who are no longer obsessed with officialdom and turned to join the business world. They are pioneers worthy of respect For example, you, Mr. Cheng, are the best among them, and you are truly elite talents. Moreover, the idea of ​​official status is constantly changing. Recently, a coastal city recruited dozens of civil servants, and only ten of them signed up. How many people." Chengyi sighed, "It's amazing! A senior leader like you, Secretary Zhu, can jump out of his thinking and look at problems detachedly. I really admire you! Come on, Secretary Zhu, please accept my heartfelt thanks Respect. Let me do it first." Zhu Huaijing shook his head and smiled, "Where did Mr. Cheng go! As a person from Beijing, how many big cadres have you met? I am also a senior leading cadre!" Cheng Yi laughed and said, "Secretary Zhu is criticizing us Beijingers again. People from other places say that Beijingers are bragging and know everything about national affairs, as if they are lying on the top of the Zhongnanhai wall day and night." After hearing this, everyone laughed. Zhu Huaijing said: "I have a classmate who used to work in a certain department in Beijing, but later went to sea by himself and started his own company, which became very prosperous." Cheng Yi asked: "Who is it? Tell me, maybe we still know each other." Zhu Huaijing said: "How can there be such a coincidence? Beijing is so big. My classmate is called Wu Hong." Cheng Yi asked: "Mr. Wu Hong of Tuyuan Group?" Zhu Huaijing asked, "Do you know each other?" As soon as Cheng Yi knocked on the table, he said cheerfully: "There is such a coincidence in the world! Mr. Wu Hong's Tuyuan Company rents an office on the eighth floor of our hotel!" Zhu Huaijing also found it very interesting, "As the saying goes, the world is so small! Every time I go to Beijing, it is Wu Hong who visits me. I haven't been to their company yet." Cheng Yi said: "The best is the best! The next time Secretary Zhu goes to Beijing, if you don't mind, you can stay with us. It will be convenient for your classmates to meet." Liu Hao said: "Yes, the next time Secretary Zhu goes to Beijing, he will live in the Black Swan. The conditions are acceptable." Zhu Huaijing said: "Meci's Black Swan is considered the most upscale hotel here, let alone the Beijing Black Swan." Cheng Yi said: "Barely it can be regarded as five-star. But our service is very good, and the business has been good." Zhu Huaijing said: "It's all about management! With senior talents like Mr. Cheng, there is no poor hotel." Liu Hao said: "Mr. Cheng came this time for two purposes. One is to inspect our hotel to see if we can invest in some projects here; the other is to guide us to improve our service. In the past two months, our business here has been a little bit It's light, my grandfather is in a hurry, and specially invited Mr. Cheng to come over." Zhu Huaijing said: "Really? It's very good. Black Swan is a signboard of our Meici hotel industry, and it is also related to your Beijing Black Swan. Don't worry about investing, I support it. Business, it will be better if it is quiet recently. "He knows that the construction of a clean government has been in the limelight recently, and the business of hotels, guesthouses and entertainment venues has declined, so it is difficult to talk about it in depth. After talking a lot of polite words, the entertainment was over.Liu Hao didn't say a few words tonight, but he was very happy.A deputy secretary of the prefectural committee has become his intangible asset. After the breakup, as soon as Zhu Huaijing entered the house, the phone rang.Xiangmei was supposed to pick it up, but she was taking a shower in the bathroom, so he had no choice but to pick it up. "Secretary Zhu? I'm Yin Yufu, the principal of No. 1 Middle School. I want to report... I went to see Zhu Qi today. This kid is very good." Yin Yufu seemed a little nervous and incoherent. Zhu Huaijing was very polite, "Hello, this is Principal Yin. You are welcome to come and sit at home." Putting down the phone, Zhu Huaijing leaned softly on the sofa.After a busy day, I really want to rest.I thought that Qiqi hadn't been there for a few days before the principal came to the door.Hearing what President Yin said on the phone, I'm afraid he has nothing serious to say, but he just wants to pay a visit.Before meeting him in time, Yin Yufu was inevitably discounted in his mind.But in front of his son's teacher and principal, he has never put on airs, and he seems to be a corporal. After a while, someone knocked on the door, and Zhu Huaijing guessed that it must be Principal Yin.When the door was opened, a tall and thin man introduced himself with a smile: "I am Yin Yufu." "Please come in, please come in, Principal Yin." Zhu Huaijing guessed that Yin Yufu would arrive so soon, and he might have been guarding a hidden place downstairs for a long time.What's going on?Anyone who likes to visit leaders at home has this kind of kung fu, and intellectuals are no exception. They are really self-taught. Xiangmei came out fully dressed and smiled at Yin Yufu.Zhu Huaijing said that this was the principal of Qiqi School.Xiangmei was even more polite, said hello, and poured tea. "Principal Yin, please take care of the child in your school. My mother and I are both busy, so we may not have much time to take care of him," Zhu Huaijing said. Yin Yufu said: "This is my responsibility! Leading cadres are too busy, not to mention taking care of children. It is rare to see children all day long. Therefore, I often explain to the teachers in the school that especially for the children of leading cadres, Use more thought. You should not make them feel special and superior, but also let them get more care and love." Yin Yufu's words were too ingratiating, Zhu Huaijing didn't want to say much, he just said, "Please." Xiangmei said: "Qiqi is not a very good student at school, but she is passable. It's just that she is too introverted and doesn't talk much." Yin Yufu said: "It may be that Secretary Zhu and Director Chen are too busy, and usually communicate with him too little. I will pay attention to this characteristic of him." After talking for a while, the phone rang.Another county leader came to see Secretary Zhu.Zhu Huaijing stood up and shook hands with Yin Yufu, "I'm sorry, Principal Yin, I want to keep you talking for a few more words, so you won't be at peace. Let's talk next time when you have time." Yin Yufu seemed to have something to say, but he had no choice but to stand up and say goodbye.Zhu Huaijing suddenly asked: "Does Principal Yin smoke? Take two cigarettes and smoke." Yin Yufu waved his hands hurriedly, "This is okay, this is okay." Xiangmei has already taken two clouds and smoke from it, and forced them to Yin Yufu.Yin Yufu pushed it for a while, then accepted it gratefully.Zhu Huaijing even said that you are welcome, you are welcome, shook hands with him again, opened the door and asked him to go slowly. Less than a minute after Yin Yufu left, comrades in the county rang the doorbell.Zhu Huaijing still sat on the sofa and asked Xiangmei to open the door.The whole night, we were greeted and sent away like this, and it was almost ten o'clock before we were clean.A total of six groups of people came, some came alone, and some came in groups of two or three.After seeing off the last batch of guests, Zhu Huaijing had time to take a bath.It was half past eleven when I went to bed. "No night is quiet, how can it go on like this?" Zhu Huaijing sighed. Xiangmei said, "Most of them said they were looking for you. Do you know how?" Zhu Huaijing said helplessly: "Yes, they are all my subordinates, classmates, fellow villagers or business owners. It is not good for me to put on airs in front of them." Xiangmei said: "The most troublesome thing is the cigarettes and alcohol. If you don't take it, you can't do it. People say you are prudish; if you take it, there is no place to put it. You can't smoke so much, and you can't drink so much. I said You should quit smoking and drinking." Zhu Huaijing ignored his suggestion to quit smoking, and just said: "Give it up, whoever will give it to whoever." Xiangmei said: "Giving can only be given for a reason. We can't give as much as people bring. Alas, the house is almost becoming a grocery store, and it's hard to clean up the mess! By the way, Simao I've contacted you for the facade you want, and it's just east of the gate of this compound." "Simao has no kinship at all." Zhu Huaijing became angry when he remembered that he had crossed rivers and demolished bridges in the past. Xiangmei sighed, "Are they relatives after all?" Zhu Huaijing couldn't sleep, and sat up wanting to smoke.There was no cigarette at the bedside, so he said, "Please, wife, get me a cigarette." "I just said that I want you to quit smoking, but you can't help it." Xiangmei said so, and got up to get a cigarette.It's a cloud of smoke.Zhu Huaijing approached the bedside lamp to unpack it, but he couldn't find the golden seal on the cigarette pack for a long time.On closer inspection, it appears that someone has disassembled it.I thought the gift giver was too careless.When he opened the cigarette case, his head suddenly buzzed.There are banknotes stuffed inside!Xiangmei had already fallen asleep, but now she also sat up.He broke all the money out and counted it, and it was 30,000 yuan. "Who gave this cigarette, do you still remember?" Zhu Huaijing asked. Xiangmei said, "How do you remember this?" Zhu Huaijing said: "We got up and checked the cigarettes and biscuit boxes at home." Cigarettes and alcohol are all placed in the big closet on the balcony, which is already full.Open it up and see that it can't be cleaned up for a while.Xiangmei said, "Let's forget about today, it's too late. Tomorrow is Saturday, and we will clean up with the door closed." Zhu Huaijing looked at the time, and it was already past one o'clock at night.I have to go to sleep first.
