Back in the Chengkang Hotel room in the evening, Chu Tianqi sat on the sofa and thought about things.

"Ding", the phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID, Chu Tianqi hesitated for a moment and pressed the answer button: "Hello, Zhou Tong?"

"Mayor Chu, I don't recognize my old classmates when I am just promoted? Who am I? You don't have my number. Zhou Tong's voice came.

Chu Tianqi said: "I know it's your number. How are you recovering from your injuries? I was in such a hurry that I didn't have time to say goodbye to you. I'll see you when I get back. ”

"Hmph, I didn't even say hello when I left, and I still have you as a senior sister in my heart. Zhou Tongjiao sneered, and then his tone softened, "Did you go that night, did you take those things?"

"I didn't go, it's a female classmate of the party school......" Speaking of this, Chu Tianqi stopped and realized that he had said something wrong.

"I guess it's you, and he guesses he can guess too. Did you hear us arguing?" After a pause, Zhou Tong said again, "Now I am alone in the hospital, he has returned to work, there is a nurse to take care of me, the nurse has just gone out, and it is estimated that it will take a while to come back." ”

"Zhou Tong, does he often treat you like that? Chu Tianqi thought of Zheng Zhiwu and came to the fire, "It's really a lack of beating." ”

"It is difficult to change a person's character, and the bones that are born grow the flesh. It's good if you hear it, I'm hiding it in the province, and I have to pretend in front of you all day long, so it's easier. Zhou Tong changed the topic, "Don't talk about him, how are you there? When I heard the news, I was overjoyed and congratulated you on your ascension, my little junior brother. ”

Chu Tianqi said: "Actually, it's just a deputy department, the same level as the deputy county magistrate in the county, I was originally a deputy department, and I was not promoted." ”

"Ascension is ascension, so why bother to talk and leave half of it. Do I know that as long as you become a member of the Standing Committee of the county party committee, it means that you have entered the core level of the highest power in the county, and you have the right to approve or veto major issues. What's more, if you are still a member of the Standing Committee of a county-level city, it is even more rare. Zhou Tong's voice was faint, "Senior brother, don't be like this with me, just say whatever you want in your heart, can't you still trust me?"

Being asked by the other party like this, Chu Tianqi suddenly felt ashamed. Zhou Tong has done so much for himself, and even his life is at the risk of giving up, how can he be so dishonest? So he said, "Senior sister, it is indeed unexpected for me to be promoted to the rank of member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee this time, and I am very happy. In the past few days, I wanted to call you and share the good news with you, but I was worried that I would cause you trouble, so I delayed it. What happened to your injuries?"

Zhou Tong's voice was soft: "Senior brother, I'm very happy that you can think of me." In the past few days, I have been with the nurse sister, I have eaten a lot, slept soundly, and the doctor said that my injury has recovered well. Originally, I was worried that the brachial nerve might be affected, but from the observation and detection, there should be no problem. Now that I heard that my junior brother has been promoted, I am in a better mood, and I ate the most tonight. ”

"Senior sister, you have done so much for me, I have always been reluctant to do something for you, but I don't know what I can do. If there's anything you need help with, just let me know and I'll do my best. "What Chu Tianqi said was what he really thought in his heart.

"Can you really do anything to help? I think about it...... What I need most now is to have a man who can hurt me, like my junior brother. After a pause, Zhou Tong laughed, "You didn't scare the junior brother, did you? As long as you have the senior sister in your heart, the senior sister will be satisfied." Don't worry, I will never disturb your life, I will put you in the softest place in my heart, my little junior brother. All of this I have done for you is willing, as long as you can tell you the news from time to time and make my senior sister happy for you. ”

Listening to Zhou Tong's words, Chu Tianqi was both moved and unable to deal with it, his mood was complicated and he felt warm.

"Don't bother Mayor Chu, let's rest early. You can rest assured here. Bye-bye!" Zhou Tong's voice was much softer, but there was clearly a strong reluctance.

"Senior sister, take good care of your body and keep your mood happy. Chu Tiandao, "When I'm busy for a while, I'll go back to see you." ”

"Silly junior brother, work is the most important, you can't run blindly. Zhou Tong suddenly lowered his voice, "Senior brother, senior sister likes you." The sound stopped abruptly.

Holding the phone for a while, Chu Tianqi sighed and put the phone on the coffee table.

After Zhou Tong's phone call, Chu Tianqi realized that it was time to call home and say goodbye. As soon as he said to call, Chu Tianqi dialed out the familiar number.

"Dut...... The beep ...... rang back, but no one answered.

Just when Chu Tianqi dialed for the third time, the phone was connected, and his mother's voice came from inside: "Dog, why haven't you called for so long, and don't report to your mother? Mom wants to call you, but your father won't let you, saying that he is afraid of disturbing your work." Did you eat well, slept well, were you fat or thin?"

Chu Tianqi felt a warm current in his heart: "Mom, everything is fine with me, you and Dad can rest assured." You just answered the phone, did you go out to visit the door?"

"Just now I was chilling out on the street with your dad, and it sounded like our phone was ringing, so I hurried back, and your dad was still behind. You Chunmei couldn't help but admonish, "Dog, the Public Security Bureau deals with bad guys all day long, you have to be careful, don't be a bad person, change places." Also, if you encounter someone who really doesn't want to die, just hide, and if you can't let others get on, there are so many people under your hands, you can't take the lead in everything......"

"Don't listen to you*. The phone was replaced by his father Chu Yuliang's voice, "The work is going well, right?"

Chu Tianqi said: "Dad, I am not in Xuyuan County now, I was just transferred to Chengkang City on the 10th day as the deputy mayor of the Standing Committee. ”

"Standing Committee, Deputy Mayor, is it too fast?" his father's voice was puzzled.

"Chengkang City is a county-level city, in fact, it is the deputy county magistrate of the Standing Committee, and the level is still the deputy department, but the name is different. Chu Tianqi hurriedly explained.

"County-level city? That was also promoted, and he suddenly skipped the position of deputy county magistrate. Although the level has not changed, it is equivalent to an increase of two levels. It seems that your work is not bad, it has been recognized by the leadership, and it has been reused. You must guard against arrogance and rashness, work hard, and do more practical things for the people. Speaking of this, Chu Yuliang's tone was much more serious, "Don't remember, you must not be corrupt, you must not engage in power and money transactions, especially if you are still young, you must pay more attention to the trap of the opposite sex." ”

"Dad, I remember that I will never do anything that is sorry for the party and the people, nor will I do anything that is sorry for you. Then, Chu Tianqi made a joke, "Listening to your tone, you really look like a discipline inspection cadre, could it be the secretary of the discipline inspection committee who changed his career to be a barefoot doctor?"

Chu Yuliang's tone was much more relaxed: "Don't use Lao Tzu to play cymbals, that's what the newspaper says, don't think I don't understand anything." What kind of work are you in charge of now, and how is the start?"

"The start is good, and the secretary and the mayor have expressed their support for the work. The specific responsibility has not yet been decided, it may be agriculture, and Chengkang is an agricultural county-level city. Chu Tianqi replied truthfully.

"It's good that the leaders pay attention to it, you are the ...... deputy mayor of the Standing Committee," Chu Yuliang just said halfway, and then changed to You Chunmei's voice, "Dog, you have become a ......deputy mayor?

Chu Tianqi shook his head and smiled, he knew that his father must have heard his mother's words and cut it off. He heard it clearly just now, and before he hung up, a sentence came from his father on the phone, "I know how to show off."

After thinking about it for a while, Chu Tianqi dialed out another number.

After the bell rang several times in a row, a female voice came from inside: "What's the matter?" ”

"County Magistrate Chu, I'm Chu Tianqi. Chu Tianqi reported to his home.

"I know. "The other party's voice is flat.

Chu Tianqi continued: "I am now in Chengkang City, which is a county-level city, and I am the deputy mayor. ”

"I know. After replying to these three words again, Chu Xiaoya said again, "There is no need to hide the identity of the 'Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee', you don't have to consider my feelings, I will not compare with you." Besides, I don't dare to compare with Mayor Chu, I can't climb high. ”

Chu Xiaoya, what's wrong? I immediately understood that it must have happened that day. So he said: "County Magistrate Chu, I didn't think about it, if there is something that hurts you, I apologize to you, I didn't mean to." ”

"Mayor Chu, you don't have to blame yourself at all. You are now a city leader or a member of the Standing Committee, don't 'apologize' to your subordinates casually, that will damage your glorious image and lose your identity. Chu Xiaoya's voice was yin and yang.

Chu Tianqi said: "Chu ...... County Magistrate Xiaoya, you ......"

"My name is the word 'Chu Xiaoya'. Chu Xiaoya interrupted the other party, "By the way, congratulations on your promotion and being reused by your superiors." As a member of the Xuyuan County Government, I am proud that Xuyuan County can deliver talents like you. ”

"County Magistrate Chu, you ......" was about to explain, but Chu Tianqi found out that the other party had already hung up.

With a wry smile, Chu Tianqi dialed out a number again.

This time the phone was quickly connected, and Qu Gang's voice came from inside: "Director, no, mayor, congratulations, Lao Qu congratulates you, and I hope Mayor Chu will take care of him in the future, and he can bring Lao Qu one or two ......"

……

In one night, Chu Tianqi made dozens of phone calls and told him about his new work unit.

It's not that he wants to show off, but he wants to take advantage of today's time to tell everything he needs to tell. Anyway, these calls just made must be told, even if you don't call the other party, the other party will call. As long as you answer the phone, you will inevitably have some greetings and politeness, which will interrupt your work at hand, and if your train of thought is interrupted, it is sometimes difficult to answer. Rather than that, it is better to focus on solving it today.

At first, he was sitting and fighting, but then he simply took off his clothes and lay on the bed to fight. As soon as the phone call came down, it was past ten o'clock in the evening.

People mentioned the word "reuse" on the phone, and Chu Tianqi thought so.

From the director of the county public security bureau to the deputy mayor of the county-level city standing committee, although the rank is still the deputy department, the status is no longer the same.

The members of the county party group are only fictitious positions that enjoy the treatment of the deputy department, but in fact, the power is still that of the director of the main department. Participating in the county government member meeting is just having the right to know about individual matters in advance, and as for the right to speak, it is also a courtesy, which cannot be taken seriously.

Under normal circumstances, from the members of the county party group to the deputy county magistrate of the Standing Committee, most of them have to go through the position of "deputy county magistrate". If it is faster, it will take five years, and it will take three years at the earliest, like Chu Tianqi, who will be promoted in less than a year and a half, is very rare.

As for the reason for this promotion, Chu Tianqi would not be naïve to think that his ability was outstanding and his contribution was huge. I have done some things and have certain work achievements, but it is not only myself who can make these achievements, but some people are even more outstanding than their own achievements. Even if you are better, if no one is on it, you will still stand still, or change to the same unit, and you will not rule out going to the cold bench.

This time, he was able to be valued by Xue Tao and Chen Kui, because of Yin Hongbo's vigorous support, Yin Hongbo not only came to send it in person, but also praised it at the meeting, and even stayed to participate in the dinner to support and cheer himself up. Behind Yin Hongbo stood Cheng Aiguo, and Xue and Chen attached great importance to themselves, which stemmed from their fear and reverence for the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and the Minister of Organization. Not only that, but he was able to be promoted to the deputy mayor of the Standing Committee, thanks to Cheng Aiguo's strong support.

In the final analysis, to have such a good situation, it is Li Weimin who is promoting himself, and it is the result of Li Weimin's instructions to Cheng Aiguo. Obviously, Li Weimin is taking care of himself, but he doesn't know if he is really looking forward to meeting Junqi as soon as possible, or if he wants to make some kind of exchange, or for some other reason.

"Ding Dong" sounded, it was the sound of a short message.

Chu Tianqi took the phone, and a few lines popped up on the screen, which was Chu Xiaoya's number: "Don't worry, I won't do anything bad for you." Work with peace of mind, I wish you good luck and high luck. ”

After reading the text message, Chu Tianqi was slightly puzzled, and later understood: the other party must have some resentment towards himself, angry that he did not accept her dedication, but he also cared about himself, so he sent a text message to reassure himself.

In fact, if you think about it, many people on the phone today have a strong concern for themselves, but in different ways. Thinking of this, Chu Tianqi secretly made up his mind that he must work hard, be honest and self-disciplined, and live up to these people who care about him, nor the party's cultivation of him.
