Zhang Yaohua reminded: "Mayor Tang, go back and find a few packaging boxes, there is no problem with the quality of the tea, but the grade is too low to take it out like this." Tang Yifan weighed it and smiled: "That's it, it's not for outsiders, it's for your own people to drink, fellow countrymen, how much is it?"

The fellow touched the corner of his clothes with his hand, a little shy, "It's good that the leader can see our tea, don't need money." Tang Yifan took out a thousand yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into the old farmer's hand: "These are the fruits of your labor, how can I take advantage of this, take it well." When your production is high and your sales are good in a few years, it's not too late to send me tea. ”

"Hey, you, the young leader, are so polite, then I'll take it. Hi, when will our tea form a scale, I dream of looking forward to that day, I heard the older generation say, during the Republic of China, the entire Jiangdong Province drank our Tangshan green, and now the reform and opening up, everyone is rich, but no one comes to buy. The old farmer sighed, as if the treasure he had cultivated by himself could not be recognized, and he regretted it very much.

When Zhang Yaohua heard this, he quickly stopped him: "Okay, Lao Zhao, go back." The money is also in hand, less here. The poor sales are your own fault, don't blame the government. ”

The fellow smiled awkwardly, turned around to leave, and Tang Yifan added: "Old farmer, the day you say, you will definitely come." ”

When the old farmer sighed and shook his head and walked out of the office door, Zhang Yaohua said impatiently: "These people are looking for the government for everything, blame the government, and the government should die." Is it that one day you can't pull and come to the government!"

Tang Yifan looked at his face, what he said was obviously irresponsible, and he couldn't help but correct a sentence: "You can't say that, the old farmers don't look for the government to find anyone when they are in difficulty, we, as parents and officials, just want to listen to the people's opinions and solve the people's worries!"

Zhang Yaohua secretly thought, this young man is really capable of pretending, and he can solve people's worries in such a situation, how can he have the conditions and environment. I didn't want to entangle with Tang Yifan more, so I pointed to the tea leaves: "Hurry up, you won't be able to catch the bus if it's too late." ”

Tang Yifan walked out of the door with two large plastic bags full of tea, he walked downstairs quickly, threw the tea into the broken Santana, and drove away. A month ago, I was still driving Cai Quan's brand-new Magotan car, or Zhao Qi's dazzling red BMW X3, but now, seeing that I can't even drive a broken Santana, I can only take the bus.

Tang Yifan bought a few more specialties for Cai Quan, and did not forget to buy Su Yang's favorite Changxi horn crisp, beef jerky and other items, all the way to the Sifang District of the main city of Dongzhou City, taking advantage of the night, he arrived at the familiar "Spring Garden", and the security guard at the door stopped him as usual: "Park, what are you doing?"

Damn, it's only been more than a month, and the security guard doesn't know him anymore, when he saw that the security guard was taking a look at Santana, Tang Yifan understood, people judge you whether you are good or bad, and you rely on the car. Tang Yifan stretched out his head and greeted with a smile: "Big brother, it's me!"

"Oh, you, why did you get into this car?" the security guard was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and asked. Tang Yifan's scar was uncovered again, "I changed the car, the car broke down, so I borrowed one casually." ”

"Don't stay in there for a long time, our community has rules, let's go in. "The security guard still decided to let him in, if it weren't for an acquaintance, he would still want to enter the community in such a broken car, but there was no door. Tang Yifan is lazy, working as a security guard in a high-end community, he can't stay without a little temper, and the dog looks at the car low.

Tang Yifan nested downstairs in Cai Quan for more than ten minutes, and made sure that Secretary Cai was at home, and there were no guests at home, so he got out of the car and raised his hand to knock on the door: "Knock knock knock......" After a while, a surprised voice came out of the door: "Mrs., it's Xiaofan." ”

Xiaofan, how kind is the name, this is the Cai Quan's nanny's mother's special name for herself, and the family is good to herself. However, happiness is always short-lived, Tang Yifan didn't hear any response, obviously after Liu's mother asked Su Yang, the situation changed.

It seems that this Su Yang is still dissatisfied with herself, and in her heart, the 100,000 yuan in the box has really become what she stuffed in. Tang Yifan stood for five or six minutes, realizing that this door would not be opened, and an unprecedented grievance came to his heart, everyone in this world abandoned him.

When Tang Yifan walked down the steps and was about to leave, a familiar voice came from the windowsill on the second floor: "Yifan......"

It was Secretary Cai's voice, this couldn't be more familiar, Tang Yifan glanced up, the sound source came from the study on the second floor, it must have been Cai Quan who heard the conversation between the two women downstairs and became suspicious, so he looked down from upstairs. Tang Yifan waved to Cai Quan excitedly, and Cai Quan disappeared from the window.

"Come on, come in quickly, how long have you been here?" Cai Quan was wearing home clothes, with slippers on his feet, and opened the door to Tang Yifan cordially. Tang Yifan had mixed tastes, and as soon as the grievances of these days poured out, his eyes instantly moistened, but he didn't expect Secretary Cai to be so polite to himself.

Tang Yifan was holding a few bags of special products in his hand, opened the door of the shoe cabinet, and saw that his special slippers were still there, and he couldn't help but feel hot again, so he changed his slippers first when he entered the house. Cai Quan reminded Liu's mother: "Why don't you hurry up and take it...... Let Yifan just mention it. ”

Mother Liu glanced at it a few times, and was distinguishing the value of these items, Tang Yifan explained: "It's some local specialties, nothing else, and Mr. Su's favorite Changxi horn crisp and beef jerky." ”

Su Yang sat on the sofa, his face was ugly, pretending not to see or hear anything, Cai Quan sighed, walked over and pushed her: "People come all the way over, what are you doing with a sad face...... No matter what, Yifan has been with me for so many years. ”

Su Yang got up at this time, and Tang Yifan hurriedly shouted: "Teacher Su......"

Su Yang snorted in his nose, didn't speak, turned around and pedaled upstairs, Tang Yifan was ashamed, and his face was melancholy: "Secretary Cai, I really didn't put that money in, you must believe me, Teacher Su may have misunderstood." ”

Cai Quan stretched out his hand and interrupted him forcefully, "Okay, don't mention the past, sit, don't stand." Tang Yifan followed Cai Quan to the sofa and sat down slowly, and Liu's mother took the tea: "Xiaofan, drink tea." ”

Tang Yifan barely squeezed out a smile and smiled at Liu's mother: "Thank you, Liu's mother." Mother Liu also smiled, the very pure kind, and then left, leaving only Cai Quan and Tang Yifan in the entire reception room.

"Yifan, I heard that you went to Tangshan?" Cai Quan took the initiative to speak, although he left Changxi, he had been paying attention to the movements of Changxi officialdom, Tang Yifan nodded with a solemn expression: "Well, I've been going for more than a week." ”

Cai Quan asked with a smile: "How is it there, the conditions are quite difficult." ”

Tang Yifan raised his head, forcibly endured the grievances in his stomach, tears were rolling, his parents were not around since he was a child, and Cai Quan's care for him was equivalent to that of a relative. Tang Yifan struggled to control his emotions for a few minutes before he replied slowly: "The situation is more difficult than I imagined, and I have fallen into a dead end." ”

Cai Quan was like a kind father, handed over a tissue, heard Tang Yifan answer "dead end", stood up, walked around the living room with his hands behind his back, and had been an official in Changxi for five years, where every grass and tree could be counted. Because Tangshan is too far away from the urban area and adjacent to the surrounding prefecture-level cities of Wuyuan City and Taifeng City, it belongs to the "three regardless" and has always been a difficult and problematic area for public security.

When he left, it was decided that Tang Yifan was going to Licheng, an important industrial town, and as soon as the cadres in the back changed, he immediately changed, and it was difficult to say that he was not implicated by himself, he said apologetically: "When I left, I arranged a seat for you, which you should know." ”

"Well, I know, I don't blame you, Secretary Cai. Rather, it's my reason that makes you... After continuous questioning by the Commission for Discipline Inspection, I should review it. Tang Yifan took the initiative to admit that he was negligent at work. Cai Quan sat down for the second time and took a sip of tea calmly: "If there is any problem over there, let's hear about it." ”

"Tangshan is full of problems, the government's inaction, chaotic actions, serious collusion between officials and businessmen, and the long-term absence of the post of discipline inspection secretary, and the complete loss of supervision. There are still some things that I still know about and can't be sure for the time being. Tang Yifan said the general situation, which is a preliminary judgment for more than a week. Cai Quan nodded: "Yifan, I know your family background, you have been very independent and assertive since you were a child, and I hope you can bring this ability to your work, you must stick to your original intention, and you can't go along with those people." ”

“…… I've heard some rumors that it was the previous mayors, and when they first went there, they were very upright, but they have deteriorated over time, and I don't know what you say...... Is that what it means?" Tang Yifan somewhat understood the meaning of his words.

Cai Quan glanced up and was worried: "Back then, I noticed the problem in Tangshan Town, so I planned to send a few cadres with strong ideology in the past to open up the darkness of Tangshan Town from the inside and see what the problem is, whether it is the darkness of officialdom or the fierce customs of the people, or the rampant underworld." However, those cadres who were sent to the past, without exception, all had accidents within a year. Let's take that Wu Tao as an example, he has a problem with his style, and he is not clear with a woman in the village, this woman is a big family in the village, and he must be threatened to divorce and marry this woman, Wu Tao is unwilling. Later, the woman was pregnant, was found by Wu Tao's wife, scolded, the woman miscarried, and almost lost her life, and later, you also heard that Wu Tao was stabbed to death in the middle of the night, and the case has not been solved until today. ”

"You say, who is to blame for this? Is it the serious problem in Tangshan Town or is his own inappropriate style?" Cai Quan said bitterly, aggravating his tone, after all, the person was sent by him, which is equivalent to ruining many families.

From Cai Quan's mouth to personally say these old things, Tang Yifan learned for the first time, he had been by his side for many years, and he never knew that those mayors were all sent by Cai Quan.
