Chapter 5 chapter Five

On the second day, Youxian County held a mine comprehensive improvement report meeting to report the mine improvement situation to the city inspection team.The members of the Standing Committee of the county party committee and the deputy county magistrate in charge of the county government all attended the meeting, and the level of the meeting was the highest in the county.Looking at the serious report of the county party committee members, Chen Mo felt a little embarrassed. Although he was the deputy director of the municipal party committee office and the leader of the inspection team, all the people present were his old leaders, and the position could not be adjusted at once. There is always such a sense of arrogance.

Shi Cheng, secretary of the county party committee, spoke first and welcomed the inspection team of the municipal party committee.Shicheng said that the county should take the opportunity of the inspection by the Municipal Party Committee to further improve the mine management.Next came the county magistrate Luo Guangyao's report on the mine rectification situation in the county. It was nothing more than a few breakthroughs in work, followed by a lot of data.Chen Mo and the members of the inspection team all remembered very carefully. He originally expected that the county would at most send a deputy county magistrate in charge of the mine to report, and the county magistrate would report in person, which he did not expect.Generally speaking, there are many rules in the official world. After a meeting, who will give the keynote report, who will make supplements, and who will make the summary, there are unwritten rules, and you can't do whatever you want.When an inspection team led by the deputy director of the municipal party committee came down, according to the rules of peer-to-peer reception and peer-to-peer reporting, at most, a deputy county magistrate in charge would report, even if the director of the Mining Management Bureau reported.The secretary of the county party committee presides, and the county magistrate makes a keynote report. This face is big enough. On the one hand, it shows the weight of this inspection in the hearts of the county magistrates. On the other hand, Chen Mo also knows that this is also a big face for him. Can only understand.

In recent years, the leadership of Chuxi City has been moved frequently. Li Xiang, the former secretary of the municipal party committee, was transferred to the director of the Finance and Economics Committee of the Provincial People's Congress.It was rumored that the province was dissatisfied with the economic development of Chuxi City over the years, and was determined to break the situation where Chuxi City was dominated by local cadres. Stabilize the situation.Therefore, the arrival of Zhang Xiao gave the ministers of non-government organizations more speculation and assumptions, and seemed to confirm the rumor that the province was dissatisfied with the slow economic development of Chuxi City in recent years.

The secretary of Routing seems to be affected by these rumors. In the position of secretary of the municipal party committee, he is happy to be an idle official, smiling like a Maitreya Buddha at all times. Apart from routine work, he does not do anything else, let alone innovated.His attitude also made the magistrates in the counties below think a little more, and felt that the situation in Chuxi was even more uncertain.Under such circumstances, the first thing the leaders of the following counties want to do is to get as close as possible to the new acting mayor and become a confidant of the new leader.But Zhang Xiao is not so easy to approach. Every time the county leaders go, Zhang Xiao is very enthusiastic and listens to the report carefully, but he is completely business-like. In the eyes of Shi Cheng and Luo Yaoguang, he is a bit repulsive. a long distance away.

Chen Mo undoubtedly became a special advantageous resource for the leaders of the You County Party Committee and the county government to get close to the Acting Mayor Zhang Xiao. After Luo Yaoguang's report, Long Jiang, the deputy county magistrate in charge of the mine, made a supplementary speech, mainly about some real examples.As soon as the speech was over, Shicheng said, next, with warm applause, we invite Comrade Chen Mo, the leader of the inspection team of the Municipal Party Committee and the deputy director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, to give instructions.Everyone clapped their hands.

Unprepared, Chen Mo was taken aback, and quickly said, how dare I give any instructions, we only brought ears, not mouths.Shi Cheng smiled and said, let's talk about it, great scholar, you are from our hometown, and you are familiar with mine affairs, we just want to hear your opinion on mine renovation. Shi Cheng spoke very earnestly and with good reasons, Chen Mo knew that it would be difficult to pass without saying a few words.Chen Mo had no choice but to say a few words, nothing more than affirming the county's attention, effective measures, and remarkable results.In the end, he said that the inspection team plans to divide into two teams to go to the mine, enter the mine cave and the mineral flotation company to investigate, and ask the county to give them great assistance.

After Chen Mo finished speaking, Shi Cheng, secretary of the county party committee, made a concluding speech, expressing his sincere gratitude to the inspection team and saying that the county will use greater efforts to promote mine remediation. After the meeting, the county arranged a banquet.A toast, a salute in return, in full swing.The secretary of the county party committee, Shi Cheng, also made a special toast to Chen Mo. While drinking, Shi Cheng said to Chen Mo jokingly, Director Chen, you led the inspection team here to help our work, but you shouldn’t believe it Us. Chen Mo was also a little drunk, and said, how dare I, even if you lend me courage, I can't believe the county.

Shicheng laughed and said, since you believe that we can do a good job, don't bother to go to the mine to check. The mine is so big, there are so many mines and mine-related enterprises, how can you be so busy.Don't worry, we guarantee that the rectification will be in place in accordance with the deployment of the municipal party committee and the municipal government, how about it? Although he was a little confused after drinking, but when it came to this point, Chen Mo understood that Shicheng didn't want the inspection team to go to the mine for inspection.Mine inspection is a very sensitive issue. Over the years, the prices of manganese ore and lead-zinc ore have risen steadily. Mineral production has become the financial head of the entire Chuxi City, accounting for more than half of the GDP.Many large and small cadres in various mining counties own shares in the mountains. Therefore, although there are frequent safety production accidents in the mines and the government has repeatedly rectified and reformed, they cannot be cured, because one day of financial suspension will be affected by one day.Every time the centralized rectification is arranged uniformly in the city, everyone adopts a perfunctory attitude. In some places, there is no action at all. It is reported to the above that the mine has completely stopped, but in fact it has not stopped for rectification at all; the inspection team I went up the mountain to check, and I was still on the way, when the call was made to the mine, where I set up an ambush to make a fake, just like guarding against devils entering the village.In some places, seeing that the higher-ups are tight, they adopt the guerrilla warfare method of lying down at night and going out at night. During the day, you go to the mine, and everything is calm.

Facing Secretary Shicheng's half-joking and half-serious words, Chen Mo didn't know how to answer for a while. He didn't know what to do when he led the team to supervise this time. He thought that the acting mayor might give the truth before he left. , but in the end it didn't.Chen Mo answered vaguely, pretending to be drunk, staggered away, went to another table to toast, and avoided it. In the evening, Chen Mo discussed tomorrow's work with Liu Anbang, deputy head of the inspection team and deputy director of the Municipal Government Office.Liu Anbang was run by the old government, and he was very close to the leaders of the counties and cities, and he was very shrewd about officialdom.Liu Anbang also noticed it, and said, Director Chen, Secretary Shicheng doesn't seem to like us going up the mountain to check, what do you think should be done?Chen Mo said, I also have the same opinion, but if we don't go up the mountain and just sit at home and listen to the county's report, then what is it called supervision?How to explain back.Liu Anbang beat the side drum and said, Director Chen, you are the team leader, you can arrange it, we will listen to you.

Just as he was talking, Liu Anbang's cell phone rang, and it turned out that it was the director of the You County Government Office.According to the custom, the superior comes down to check and guide the work. After the matter is over, the reception during the break time is received by line. The party committee has a line, and the government has another line. The director of the Youxian government office calls Director Liu, obviously It's going to be another treat.Liu Anbang couldn't find a reason to avoid it. The call came at the right time. He answered the phone. Seeing what Chen Mo wanted to say, Liu Anbang rushed to say, "You decide, Director Chen, as long as you decide, I will firmly obey." , I have to go out, they have been waiting for a long time, you also go with us?

Chen Mo quickly said, it's nothing, you can go.Chen Mo knew that at this time, everyone in the inspection team might have gone out in style. All the units in the city have their feet below them. Even if they don't have direct leadership relationships, they also have business guidance relationships. Fearing that you won't be able to make a relationship, who will give up when an opportunity comes to your door?Besides, the person who came here this time is for the supervision and inspection of mine renovation, and the matter is of great importance. Maybe the county even held a meeting of the heads of these units and asked them to do a good job in reception. Thinking this way, when he returned to the room, Li Yiguang was sitting there watching TV and waiting.Chen Mo said, Director Li, don't you go home to spend time with your family at night?Li Yiguang smiled and said that joining the revolution is a family. In ancient times, Huo Qubing could still say that the Huns were not destroyed, so why should a family be, let alone me?Chen Mo laughed and said, Director Li treats me like a Hun.Li Yiguang said, if we talk about the importance of being with you, it is even more important than that. Li Yiguang admitted so frankly that he was attacking him. Not only did it not sound disgusting, but it made people feel a sense of mutual trust. Chen Mo felt that the two were getting closer. Then, the two of them went out to spend the night, and as Chen Mo expected, at the entrance of the hotel, a car left one by one, and all the leaders of the relevant units in the county came to pick up his team members.Chen Mo said, Director Li, you are instigating a complete rebellion. Li Yiguang smiled and said, "It's a countermeasure, and the superior department came, and the reception is as it should be."The two of them talked and laughed as they got into the car and drove all the way to the bustling area in the center of the city, where they arrived at a bathing center.Chen Mo took the initiative to say, let's soak your feet.Li Yiguang said, that's exactly what I mean. Chairman Mao said that the feet are the hardest, so don't put more emphasis on the head than the feet.Chen Mo asked, which volume was selected by Mao?Li Yiguang laughed The two were led by the waiter into a room with two beds side by side.Not long after the two lay down, the waiter who brought them in attracted two young and beautiful girls and stopped in front of them. The waiter asked, sir, look, is it okay for these two ladies to serve you?After speaking, the two girls bowed to them. Li Yiguang looked at Chen Mo and remained silent.Chen Mo said, Director Li, what do you see me doing?Li Yiguang said, today you have the final say.Chen Mo said, just them.Li Yiguang joked that the leader nodded, just the two of them. The two girls smiled sweetly, went out to get the wooden barrel, and asked what kind of potion they wanted to wash, was it for beriberi or had other special functions?Chen Mo felt strange, so he asked, wash your feet and add some medicine to treat athlete's foot. I still believe that washing your feet may not have other functions? The two girls are also very good at talking, saying, some of them. Chen Mo asked, what other functional potions are there? The girl said that there is also a potion that can strengthen yang, a man's treasure. Chen Mo said, there really are. It seems that I am ignorant, but I still don't believe it. How can washing feet be linked to aphrodisiac?The wind and the horse are irrelevant. The girl got serious and said, sir, you don’t know about this. Human internal organs, internal organs, and human feet all have corresponding acupoints that communicate with each other, so in ancient times there was a saying that rubbing the soles of the feet can cure all diseases , which is also scientifically proven. Li Yiguang listened to their theory, did not speak, just smiled.Only then did he interject and say, then I will take a potion for strengthening yang and try to see if it works. The girl who washed Chen Mo's feet asked Chen Mo, sir, do you also wash the potion of aphrodisiac? Li Yiguang laughed and said, forget it, his wife is still alive, and she is so energetic that she has no place to pour it out. If he takes the aphrodisiac potion again, won’t it harm him?The two girls laughed out loud. Enough jokes, the two lay side by side, chatting while enjoying the services of the girls.Li Yiguang suddenly said, Chen Mo, what do you think of what Secretary Shi said today? Chen Mo pretended to be confused, and asked, which sentence? Don't pretend to be confused, Li Yiguang said. Chen Mo smiled and said, I was going to ask Director Li for advice. You are an old sparrow from Dongting Lake, and you have a lot of experience. I really want to ask, so I'll be blunt.Li Yiguang's expression became serious. Seeing him like this, Chen Mo restrained his smile and listened humbly. Li Yiguang asked, Chen Mo, do you know why Acting Mayor Zhang appointed you to be the leader of this inspection team? I'm probably a native of You County, so I'm familiar with the situation.Chen Mo thought for a while and replied. , Li Yiguang smiled and said, this is just one, and there is another. Chen Mo said, please enlighten me. Li Yiguang said that mine rectification has a lot to do with it and involves a wide range of people. To be honest, the leaders at the county level are not afraid of anything. It is a serious and serious liability accident, not only to lose the official, but also to be held criminally responsible.However, mine production is the mainstay of the local finances. Once it stops, the mine owners will suffer losses, and the finances will also suffer. More importantly, which mine does not have shares of leaders at all levels?For so many years, the rectification has been carried out, and the mine is still in chaos as usual, and things have happened. Chen Mo interjected, Director Li, you have entrusted me with the foundation, so you are not afraid of others saying that you eat inside and outside.Li Yiguang smiled and said, don't interrupt, just be more modest, okay?Chen Mo said, okay, I'll listen.Li Yiguang went on to say that the acting mayor Zhang just came to Chuxi. Although the organizational intention is very clear, he is the mayor of Chuxi, but there is a difference between the acting mayor and the mayor. No, it is very meaningful for Mayor Zhang to ask you to take the lead. What's the meaning? Let me tell you a fact, brother, now, with the development of the economy, the political status of entrepreneurs is constantly improving. Among the deputies to the people's congresses at all levels, the business sector accounts for a large proportion, and a large number of private owners have become deputies to the people's congresses. As far as the county is concerned, there are 17 deputies to the city's people's congress. In addition to the secretary of the county party committee, the county magistrate, and several township party committee secretaries, mine owners account for 8 of them. Inextricably linked, in the elections in our county, there was an incident in which a candidate for the deputy county magistrate was elected. A person with an interest in the mine.The city's two sessions will be held soon, and the by-election of the mayor of the city's people's government will be held at that time. This time is very critical. Chen Mo couldn't help shivering, as if a scoop of cold water was pouring over his head. Although he also considered Zhang Xiao's appointment as the leader of the inspection team, he didn't think as deeply as Li Yiguang did. Therefore, I privately think that Mayor Zhang has high hopes for you when he sent you down.Li Yiguang finally said. Chen Mo nodded, he believed that what Li Yiguang said was true.He wanted to ask Li Yiguang what he should do, but after thinking about it, he closed his mouth.Or think about the countermeasures first. After returning to the hotel from the bathing center, Chen Mo couldn't fall asleep for a long time.What Li Yiguang said gave him a sense of enlightenment.At first, he thought that the purpose of Li Yiguang's attack on him was to prevent the inspection team from going to the mine to inspect.Chen Mo knew that what Li Yiguang said was all the truth. There are several counties under Chuxi City that have mines. The mines do involve the vital interests of many leaders. Li Yiguang himself may have shares in the mines.But then, he overturned his own judgment and believed that Li Yiguang was completely for his sake. Although Li Yiguang was smooth and impeccable in his work, Chen Mo felt that Li Yiguang's teaching this time was completely out of sincerity. After thinking for most of the night, Chen Mo had a deeper understanding of why the acting mayor Zhang Xiao appointed him as the leader of the inspection team.The secretary of the municipal party committee asked Zhang Xiao to act as the leader of the mine rectification leading group on behalf of the mayor, which was both legitimate and full of meaning.The name is justified, the mayor is of course in charge of economic work, and mines are the primary project of economic work in Chuxi City. No one can say anything if Zhang Xiao is in charge of the economic work. It is full of deep meaning, because mine management is a tricky matter Son, if it's not done well, it will become a cat catching hot cakes, and can't get rid of it even after eating it. The progress of the work is not great, it is because Zhang Xiao is not working hard, and once the work is too hard, it will damage the interests of a large number of people. Xiao may lose votes at the upcoming National People's Congress.For Zhang Xiao, this was undoubtedly a hot potato.But Zhang Xiao had to accept this job. Zhang Xiao's coming to Chuxi City was attracting everyone's attention. If he did Tai Chi Push Hands on this job, he would definitely be disappointed.These days, the common people look forward to the hardline officials until their eyes turn green.Therefore, in this mine rectification, what Zhang Xiao had to do was not only to stand still in the actual work, but also to make a big splash in the public opinion and make a good gesture.This requires a person who understands and can control to do the supervision.Zhang Xiao's acting mayor named him to be the team leader, which undoubtedly showed his full trust in him. Of course, it also had the effect of pushing him on the front line as a shield. Once things were prioritized, there would be a step back. After thinking things through, Chen Mo fell asleep with peace of mind.As a literati, it's not that Chen Mo lacks the courage to die for his confidant. Zhang Xiao almost lifted him out of the mud. Such a kindness of knowledge and encounter is hard to repay even if his body is broken.Therefore, not to mention that Zhang Xiao was willing to use him as a shield, if the development of the matter required Chen Mo to make a sacrifice, he would do it without hesitation.With the preparation of sacrifice, Chen Mo has nothing to sleep on. Although he didn't sleep well all night, Chen Mo still woke up very early the next morning. When he woke up, he took a copy of "Selected Novels" from his bag to read. Before he finished reading one, he threw it aside. .Chen Mo used to like reading novels very much, especially the novels selected in "Selected Novels" and "Monthly Novels", and often couldn't put them down.And now, I can't even finish reading a page. People in different environments will have different moods.Chen Mo sighed, and subconsciously recalled the conversation with Li Yiguang last night. This memory surprised him, and he thought that if he did everything according to Li Yiguang's idea, he might make a mistake.Although Li Yiguang has been in politics for many years, he is sophisticated and sophisticated, but he has overlooked one thing, that is, no matter how sophisticated and shrewd Li Yiguang is, he doesn't understand Zhang Xiao!If he didn't know Zhang Xiao well, everything he said would definitely be biased! Chen Mo then thought, what Li Yiguang said last night was to see acting mayor Zhang Xiao as an old man in the officialdom who was obsessed with his personal career and was eager to advance and retreat in the officialdom. If Zhang Xiao was the only one who regarded his career as his own People, Li Yiguang is right, the problem is, Zhang Xiao is not that kind of person! Chen Mo is confident that he still understands the Acting Mayor of Zhang Xiao. Zhang Xiao is an upright official. Although he seems calm on the surface, in fact, deep down, he still has great ambitions, and this lofty ambition is by no means He cared about his personal career advancement. In this regard, Zhang Xiao was indeed more generous than ordinary people in the officialdom.Zhang Xiao was very serious about all tasks, and he would never be perfunctory because he only cared about his own votes. This time he was sent to supervise, I'm afraid it wasn't just for him to put on a show. From this point of view, it is not the best policy to do exactly what Li Yiguang said.Chen Mo thought nervously for a long time, but still couldn't make up his mind. Annoyed, he turned on the TV, and a famous fishing program was being broadcast on the TV. Two world-class sea fishermen, Paul Bairacamba and Fick Lan Rostini galloped on the blue sea in a speedboat, proudly introducing their unique sea fishing methods. Chen Mo suddenly thought that he hadn't contacted Ma Ning for a long time. Since he returned to Chuxi City, Ma Ning only called him once. Ma Ning said on the phone that he was fishing somewhere in the Yellow Sea.Chen Mo decided to call Ma Ning, and the call was connected quickly. Chen Mo asked, where are you, Ma Ning, and Ma Ning said that he was drinking beer, and the noisy sound of a bar came from the headset.Chen Mo knew that Ma Ning was really drinking.Chen Mo said, it's almost dawn, are you still drinking?Ma Ning said that a few friends just came back from sea fishing and their emotions were high.Chen Mo couldn't help feeling envious, and said, Ma Ning, few people can match your kind of life.Ma Ning laughed loudly at the other end, and said, Chen Mo, you've been like a fucking yellow crane since you left, and now you just remember to call me?Chen Mo said, I don't have the luck of your kid, I go fishing around the world, I'm so carefree now. What is there to worry about, let me hear it?Manning said. Chen Mo talked about leading the inspection team, and finally said, buddy, give me an idea. Ma Ning was silent for a while, as if answering the question, Chen Mo, where is the fishing bag I gave you, your place is a golden treasure for sea fishing, don't miss the opportunity?
