Chapter 25 Chapter Twenty-Five

After the county party committee reported Peng Yimin and Dai Wei, the original rumors also began to stay away from Chen Mo.There are also fewer people visiting the dormitory at night.What's interesting is that when he came back every afternoon, Ren Da stopped pestering him to serve him well, but walked away after saying hello from a distance, presumably busy serving Peng Yimin and Dai Wei.Fortunately, Ren Da didn't do too much, Ronaldinho came to clean his room and wash his changed clothes every day as usual.Chen Mo couldn't refuse no matter what, he felt very guilty, he didn't change his clothes too often, insisted on changing his clothes after a few days, and then took them back for Shu Fang to wash.But it's impossible to change clothes only once a week, and besides, it's impossible to go home every weekend.In this way, Ronaldinho still often washes his clothes.

Contrary to Chen Mo's indifferent retreat, there are more rumors about Peng Yimin and Dai Wei, and they say everything.Most of them are flirtatious rumors, saying that when Peng Yimin was the head of propaganda, he had a corrupt style, had an affair with a certain actress, the two maintained a long-term concubine relationship, and even arranged for a certain person to work in a certain unit.Chen Mo felt that he was talking about Peng Yimin and Ma Hui.The rumors about Dai Wei are mostly economical, saying that when he was the director of the finance bureau and the executive deputy county magistrate, he was not economically clean, and in the name of his wife he ran a concentrator with a daily processing capacity of more than 1,000 tons.The original investment in this concentrator was embezzled by him from a certain fund of the Finance Bureau, but he paid it back later.etc.

When Chen Mo heard these rumors, he just laughed it off.It is conceivable that the game between Peng and Dai became intense from the very beginning.And everyone doesn't play cards according to the routine, it's completely like they want to put the opponent to death and then hurry up.Chen Mo felt that there must be struggles in politics, which is inevitable, but there must be a limit to such struggles, that is, fighting for power without hurting others, but these two are almost killers, and they are likely to draw their salaries from the bottom of the pot. There are some. What Chen Mo didn't expect was that Peng Yimin would personally instigate himself to form an alliance with him to deal with Dai Wei.

That day Peng Yimin called and said, Minister Chen, what are you up to? Chen Mo said, it's Secretary Peng, hello, hello! I'm with the leaders of the Broadcasting Bureau, and I want to strengthen the propaganda and reporting on the martyrs.Peng Yimin said, Minister Chen is devoting himself to his work, and his spirit is commendable. Chen Mo laughed and said, are you really praising or fake praising.Peng Yimin said, of course it is a real compliment.Chen Mo went on to say, why do I sound like a critic? Peng Yimin laughed and said, it seems that I am still not flattering, and the praise is also very good.

Chen Mo smiled and said, Secretary Peng called, he must have some instructions, you said. Peng Yimin laughed at the other end and said, I don't dare to give any instructions. I have nothing to do today. I think you have been in Longshui for nearly a year and have not invited you to dinner.This love for classmates is still... Chen Mo quickly said, there is no need to invite a meal, if you want to invite me, I should invite you, seniority can't be messed up.Peng Yimin laughed and said, what kind of seniority, we are not the same seniority.Chen Mo joked, that's what you said, don't rely on me and say that you don't respect the leader.

Peng Yimin said, I really want to treat you to dinner, just the two of us.My wife is not at home today, and I have nowhere to eat.Chen Mo wanted to be sure that Peng Yimin had something to tell him, but on second thought, he was very sensitive at this time, and it was not good for him to have too much contact with anyone.However, if a deputy secretary of the county party committee invites you to dinner, no matter how you say it, it is not easy to refuse.Immediately said, then I would like to thank Secretary Peng, you should find a place first, I will rush over here when I finish my work here.

Putting down the phone, Chen Mo delayed going to the hotel for a while looking for trouble.When I arrived at the hotel, I found that Peng Yimin was alone in a small box. When Chen Mo came in, Peng Yimin smiled and got up to give up his seat, saying, "Is it over?" Chen Mo replied, "You have summoned me, and I have to come even if the matter is not finished." Peng Yimin smiled and said, I don't know who you are, Chen Mo? You are a workaholic. If you don't finish your work, I'm afraid the gods won't be able to invite you. Chen Mo hurriedly said, where is it? The call of the leader is work, and it is more important work.Peng Yimin smiled more cordially, and said, Chen Mo, you just know how to talk, and whatever words come to your mouth are sweet.Chen Mo laughed and said, you are criticizing me.

Peng Yimin didn't talk to him, but asked, I treat you to dinner today, and you can order whatever you want.Chen Mo smiled and said, today is so generous. Peng Yimin laughed and said, I have always been generous. Chen Mo said, that is, that is, leaders are very generous.However, I don't have any special requirements for eating and drinking, just a few rural dishes will do.At the moment, I ordered mapo tofu, bean sprouts, a farmer's fried meat, a chicken offal, and a soup.He smiled and said, I will eat these few.Order what you want. Peng Yimin smiled and said with a pun, I will eat whatever you eat, and advance and retreat with you.

Chen Mo couldn't help laughing inwardly, and he was very close to Peng Yimin's purpose of inviting him to dinner.Peng Yimin came to fight for the Allied Army.Recalling the sharply worded report letter not long ago, when the public still regarded himself as Peng Yimin's competitor, Chen Mo's understanding of Peng Yimin was almost impossible to get on the line.This person with a friendly smile, who kept saying that he wanted to advance and retreat with him, was racking his brains not long ago to erase himself from the officialdom.The officials in Jiuli's officialdom are simply terrible. They hold knives in their hands, but their faces are more friendly and their words are more humble.

Drink three rounds.Peng Yimin said, Chen Mo, I feel very strange about the Standing Committee this time, why did you quit? With confidence in mind, Chen Mo smiled slightly and said, after You County lost the election, I was somewhat indifferent to political affairs, and it can be said to be a kind of decadence, even Secretary Dong Wei could see it.Once Secretary Dong criticized me for being stagnant.When secretary Dong Wei talked to me, I recommended you.You are very capable and have enough qualifications.Of course I didn't dare to have extravagant hopes. Chen Mo said it frankly, which is more conducive to concealing his true intentions.Peng Yimin laughed and said, Chen Mo, if you say you are angry, I also feel it.But this also requires an objective analysis of the objective situation. Anyone who is in your situation will inevitably have short-term depression, which is normal.I actually think that you have a strong sense of professionalism. In this regard, you are actually not discouraged.Starting from my own heart, I am very willing to recommend you.

After hearing this, Chen Mo quickly said gratefully, I am very grateful for Secretary Peng's trust in me.It's not that I have no intention of advancing or retreating in official career, it's just that I think goal setting should be realistic.Goal setting is too outrageous, it is called delusional.If I were in the position of deputy secretary of the county party committee or executive deputy county magistrate, I would have an idea.But now, don't joke about it, I really don't dare to have delusions. I really envy you for being so indifferent.Peng Yimin said with a smile.In fact, indifference is also a kind of state, and I can't do it.In addition to my personal career advancement and retreat, there is another problem. This is actually a channel problem for cadres to grow up. I have also been the deputy secretary of the county party committee for many years.I can't occupy this position for a long time. If I occupy it, how can young people get it? After hearing this, Chen Mo just smiled and said that Secretary Peng's dedication to supporting talents is admirable. Next, Peng Yimin's words were a little naked.Peng Yimin took a sip of his wine, adjusted the emotional factor in his eyes to look more trusting, and asked, Chen Mo, we are classmates and friends, I want to ask you the truth.Between me and Mayor Dai, which one do you prefer? Chen Mo felt uncomfortable. No matter how you answer this question, it is not correct, and it is easy to cause trouble.If the answer is that he supports Peng Yimin, Peng may deliberately pass the words on to Dai Wei, so as to drive a distance between Chen Mo and Dai Wei, so that he can use him better.Chen Mo pretended to be drinking, thought for a while, and said with a smile, Secretary Peng, you are politically tough and capable, and you have always been a role model for me to learn from.I have relatively little contact with deputy county magistrate Dai, and I really don't know enough about it. Peng Yimin seemed to understand, and said, speaking of it, in the county party committee, I value you the most.I don't know how the municipal committee will arrange it. If the organization trusts me and uses me, I also want to have a comrade who knows the basics and I will form a team with me. One day, I hope you can come out of the mountain. Chen Mo didn't dare to show anything, and said, thank Secretary Peng for his trust, I will always obey the call of the organization.This sentence was very neutral, but Peng Yimin mistakenly thought that Chen Mo had promised himself, and said with a smile, you have always been the one I trust, and we will cooperate very well. No matter how deep the officials are and how thick-skinned they are, when talking about their official careers, they often still have some shame.Of course, Peng Yimin would feel a little ashamed for blatantly making such a condition.So, in order to hide this little bit of shame, the two of them drank even harder.In the end, Peng Yimin was drunk, and there was no intention of covering up what he said. Peng Yimin staggered and poured himself a glass of wine, then stood up staggeringly and toasted Chen Mo, saying, Chen Mo, let's form a team together.Dai Wei is a dick! Isn’t his mother Dong Wei’s answering person? Let me tell you, Dong Wei is also finished. He has to rely on Dong Wei. Possessive political acumen... Chen Mo knew in his heart that seeing Peng Yimin's words became more and more explicit, he also pretended to be drunk, and fell asleep on the table.But my heart is more sober.Peng Yimin is here, I'm afraid Dai Wei will come too. Sure enough, not long after, Dai Wei also called.Dai Wei did it more subtly and cleverly than Peng Yimin.After Dai Wei said hello on the phone, he said, Minister Chen, it is almost the end of the year, and the computer purchase plan sent by your ministry last time has been delayed by me.It is true that the funds are too tight. This time, if you have a little money, you send someone over to take the report. I have signed the report and greeted the Director of Finance, and you can withdraw the cash directly. Chen Mo thanked him, but his heart was like a mirror.The computer purchase report had been on Dai Wei's side for several months. At this time, Dai Wei suddenly called to tell him that the matter had been resolved, and of course it wasn't just for those few computers.Peng Yimin made an empty wish, and Dai Wei held the financial power, so of course he would not make an empty wish, I am afraid that he will have to write checks everywhere. Chen Mo smiled and said, County Magistrate Dai, thank you.Our Propaganda Department only has three computers. With your support this time, our office conditions have reached a new level. Dai Wei laughed and said, Minister Chen, you have always supported my work.I need your continued support in the future.The propaganda department is Qingshui Yamen, I still know this.How about this, there is still a little money in finance, if you need it, you can think about it a little more. Chen Mo smiled and said, think about it, how much is your point. Dai Wei laughed at the other end and said, "It can't be too big at all. If it's too big, I didn't catch it."One or two hundred thousand, how about a little more at the end of the year when the account is paid off? Chen Mo was overjoyed and said, thank you, this is more affordable, and I immediately asked them to call the report. Dai Wei smiled and said, OK, let them come, I will wait in the office.He also said meaningfully, Minister Chen, we need to support each other a lot in the future. Chen Mo smiled and said, of course, especially I need you to support me more.The propaganda department does not produce any GDP, it only consumes it.It's hard to do things without money.I can still improve the level of consumption. Dai Wei laughed and said, consumption is also productivity. Consumption stimulates production, and ultimately it is productivity. Am I right? Chen Mo laughed and said, yes, Magistrate Dai's theoretical level is admirable.Dai Wei also couldn't help laughing, saying, if I talk about theories with the propaganda department, I'm afraid it will be a joke. After hanging up the phone, Chen Mo couldn't help thinking. After he quit, the game between Peng Yimin and Dai Wei was indeed unprecedentedly fierce. What should he do? Chen Mo still felt that it was completely correct for him to maintain an indifferent attitude in the Standing Committee , at least, he retreated from the vortex, so as not to turn this game that does not completely follow the routine into a Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
