Li Rui hurriedly said: "In fact, even if it takes a whole year, it can change all the poor counties in the city, which is enough to say that it is an outstanding achievement." I don't think you need to worry too much. Song Chaoyang said: "That's what I said." Li Rui understood what he meant, who doesn't want to make political achievements in the shortest possible time, but the problem is that work like poverty alleviation is not at all possible to produce results in a short period of time, poverty alleviation is the same as curing diseases, and there is a saying that "illness is like a thread" in curing diseases, not to mention poverty alleviation, which is more difficult than curing diseases? Deliberately relieved him, he said: "You can rest assured, even if not all poor counties can make achievements, at least Shuanghe County is no problem." As long as Shuanghe County has made great changes under the leadership of County Magistrate Fang, this is your achievement. ”

In fact, Song Chaoyang also understands in his heart that anything can be urgent, that is, the poverty alleviation and development work is not urgent, for himself, this poverty alleviation campaign has been launched, at least the momentum has risen, which is completely in line with the mind of Huang Xinnian, secretary of the provincial first party committee, next, how much achievement is not the most important thing, and even how many achievements do not matter, as long as there is a little bit of achievement, his own achievements will not be able to run away, and if you want to force more, it is purely self-inflicted. In addition, we should not focus on poverty alleviation with all our minds, and the development of a prefecture-level city cannot only be counted on poverty alleviation, and it is time to make a difference in other fields.

As the saying goes, there are three fires when a new official takes office. Since he took office, he has only burned the fire of the "poverty alleviation and development movement", and the fire is far from enough, and two more fires must be burned. Otherwise, where would he show his ability as secretary of the municipal party committee? Although nearly half a year has passed, and if the fire is burned now, the stove will already be cold, but as long as it is burned, it will be better than not burning. always doesn't burn the fire, maybe he will be looked down upon, and he will be ridiculed by others, "The new secretary Song Chaoyang has no ability at all".

Thinking of this, he realized that although he had gained a firm foothold in Qingyang City, he had not grasped the momentum well, and had fallen behind invisibly, and now he could only catch up, sighing secretly, as if he was swearing, and seemed to be encouraging himself, saying: "New year, new atmosphere, new year, we have to do a great job, so that Qingyang City from top to bottom all aspects of the old look and new look!"

Li Rui also said: "Boss, don't worry, I will be your pawn, do a good job in various services before and after the saddle, help you solve problems, make suggestions, and please urge me to make greater progress in the new year." ”

Song Chaoyang looked at him with satisfaction and said, "You have been doing a good job, next, just continue to work hard." Oh, by the way, I'm going to marry Qingman at the beginning of the new year, right, well, from now on, I will be the fast son-in-law of Governor Lu, and I will have to be more strict with myself, learn from your father-in-law, and strive to reach his level one day, hehe. ”

Li Rui smiled humbly, thinking that it might be a little difficult to reach the level of his father-in-law and his old man, and he didn't have that much ambition, so he was already satisfied if he could reach the current level of his boss in this life. Besides, the bigger the official, the more tired he becomes, not only the body is tired, but the heart is also tired, and the nerves are tense all day long, so what is the meaning of that kind of life? People are more important than contentment, and they can't just know how to climb up, and when they climb to the end, they don't know why they want to climb up, and then they lose the meaning of life.

In the evening, before rushing to the hotel where he was gathering with Li Ming and Guan Weiwei, Li Rui picked up Yang Peng.

Yang Peng was a little nervous, and said: "Everyone is a big leader, what if you look down on me as a little person?" Li Rui said proudly: "You were brought by me, who dares to look down on you?" Yang Peng sneered: "But I'm worried about showing cowardice, won't you be the one who will lose you when the time comes?" Li Rui said: "It's okay, haven't you participated in the wine party?" It's time to toast, it's time to toast, it's time to say and laugh, just like usual." If you can't get it right, then listen more and talk less. These two friends are not bad, quite realistic, and have never looked down on people, so you can put away your worries. ”

He said it well, but the tension in Yang Peng's heart could not be eliminated, and he thought, I your daughter-in-law, in the past 30 years that I Yang Peng has lived from childhood to adulthood, the biggest official I have ever seen is my father's old classmate, the deputy director of the Shibei District Finance Bureau, but he is only a deputy section-level leader, but the two I saw tonight, one is the head of Shinan District, and the other is the head of the traffic police detachment of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, both are leaders at the county and department level.

He peeked at Li Rui, and saw that he looked indifferent, not having a sense of superiority, and his heart moved, it seems that this old classmate has successfully completed the transformation from a low-level small person to a high-level big man, and he is no longer the same Li Rui as before, although he still regards himself as a good buddy, although he still likes Ding Yijing, although he has not changed from his previous appearance, but he has already undergone a qualitative change, this change even makes him a little rusty when facing him, and he can't help but have a sense of oppression, even the one who used to scold at willThe mantra "I'm your daughter-in-law" is not good to blurt out casually again, I really don't know how to say it, and I don't know if it's good or bad.

He was thinking about Li Rui's changes, and Li Rui was also thinking about him secretly, thinking, as the old saying goes, a hero has three gangs, especially in modern society, the era of single-handedly fighting the world has long passed, and more attention is paid to the cooperation of the team and the cultivation of interest groups, no matter how well he mixes in the future, he also needs someone to help, otherwise, there will be problems that occurred when he blackmailed Yang Xiaoyan before- What an embarrassment it is that I don't have a friend who I can fully trust to help me do this kind of thing, but I need to find my relatives and take them out with me? Moreover, as I go higher and higher in the future, I will definitely have more and more public and private affairs to deal with, and it is impossible to do everything by myself, so I need to have a group of hardcore cronies to help, where will these hardcore cronies come from? If I don't cultivate them, God will definitely not give them to me in vain.

How to cultivate it? It is very simple, start with relatives and friends like my cousin Shi Dongpo and my classmate Yang Peng, and gather them around us to form a small interest group that benefits together. If they want to maintain their own interests, they must first protect the interests of their team leader, so that they can not only promote them to progress with themselves, make their lives richer, but also get the help of a team. When people are running for president of the United States, there are still several capital support teams behind them, and if they want to go down in the officialdom and go further, of course, they also need to organize similar teams.

Thinking of this, he asked: "What do you think of Zhang Bing?" Yang Peng was stunned for a moment, and said, "What?" Li Rui said: "Is he available?" Yang Peng said: "Isn't this kid mixed with Li Zhichao?" Li Rui said: "I think he has the heart to join me, but I don't know if he is loyal enough." Yang Peng said: "Haven't you heard of that sentence, there is no real loyalty in this world, loyalty is because you don't give enough benefits." Li Rui smiled and said, "Then I'll find something for him to do?" There are too few available people around me, you are not in Qingyang, it is impossible to find you for everything. Yang Peng asked, "What are you going to let him do?" Li Rui shook his head and said, "I haven't thought about it yet." ”

After rushing to the private room of the hotel, Li Rui was taken aback, good guy, in the private room, there were two beautiful women sitting on the edge of the table, and when they looked at it, who were the sisters Lin Yali and Lin Yafei? Why did the two of them come?

In the private room, Li Ming, Guan Weiwei, Zeng Hanlin and the Lin sisters were laughing and laughing, and the five of them caught a glimpse of Li Rui arriving and got up to greet each other. In an instant, all ten eyes were fixed on Li Rui's face.

Yang Peng timidly followed behind Li Rui, and when he saw him enter the house, everyone got up to greet him, and his heart was shocked, and he once again silently felt the soft power of this old classmate.

Li Rui stepped forward with a smile on his face and said, "A few brothers, sisters-in-law, Yafei, and the younger brother are late, and they will punish themselves with three cups later." Please take a seat, please take a seat, I am really flattered by such a big pomp, hehe. ”

Guan Weiwei affectionately grabbed his shoulder, glanced at Yang Peng, and said, "I also said, you came so late, you can't bring a beautiful woman over?" What do you say? Have you changed your appetite? Have you started to work on the base? Haha. ”

Lin Yali pouted and said: "Guan Weiwei, Guan Weiwei, look at what you said, is it what you should say as a brother? It's not that I said you, these people here are you with gay characteristics, are you embarrassed to talk about others?" Guan Weiwei Qi said: "How do you say this? Why am I the only one with gay characteristics?" What are the characteristics of homosexuality?" Lin Yali smiled and said: "Because you are the ugliest, hehe." Guan Weiwei became more and more incomprehensible, and said with a smile: "What does ugliness have to do with homosexuality?" Lin Yali explained: "If you look ugly, no woman likes it, so you can only engage in homosexuality." Guan Weiwei was very happy, and scolded with a smile: "Sister-in-law, do you really not know or are you deliberately pretending to be confused with me, don't you know, these years are all handsome guys engaged in glass, you look at the big stars on TV who are engaged in glass, what Mao Ning, what Lihong, they are all handsome guys." ”

Li Ming smiled, looked at Yang Peng, patted Li Rui's hand, and said, "Let's introduce your good friend to us first." ”
