Feng Jun was very strange and said, "Brother, why are you asking this?" Li Rui said, "I plan to go around the street and see that there are cloth shoes sellers to buy a pair for the boss. By the way, I also brought a pair to the Secretary-General. If you want, I'll get you a pair, too. Feng Jun was impressed when he heard this, and said, "Brother, you can be considered a secretary at a good level, and you can even consider this." Compared to you, I didn't even touch the secretary's door. The Secretary-General's feet are not big, forty yards. I don't want it, my leather shoes are soft, hehe, thank you brother for your trouble. ”

Li Rui took his personal applications, and after coming out of the hotel, he looked left and right on the street, and walked towards the place that looked a little prosperous, all the way to the west. Of course, the so-called prosperity here is far less prosperous than the prosperity of the city, and it is considered prosperous if there are two shops and a few signboards. Otherwise, can you still see real prosperity in such poor villages and towns?

He walked along the street all the way to the west, to the end is a T-junction, to the north is the town grain depot, but also the place where Li Yulan had the first relationship, where it is now the location of the dried fruit and cereal processing factory, to the south is another road, look at some shops, but I don't know which direction there is a shoe store, I have the heart to find a local to ask, but I can't see people, and then I had an idea, I took out my mobile phone and dialed Li Yulan.

Li Yulan was very happy to receive his call, and said with a smile, "Don't you have to accompany Secretary Song?" Li Rui said, "He has a lunch break, so I don't have to accompany him." Li Yulan said: "Then it's convenient for you to come to me, I'm in the office." Li Rui said, "It's not convenient now, I'll buy shoes." I'm also making this call to ask you, where are there any shoes that sell in the town, just cloth shoes. Li Yulanqi said, "What are you buying cloth shoes for, are your leather shoes broken?" Li Rui said, "No, I bought a spare, and I wore it when I went to the fields and climbed the mountain." There is a shoe stall at the entrance of "Li Yulan Road" South Street Primary School. Li Rui asked, "How to go," Li Yulan said, "Forget it, I'll take you over." ”

Li Rui hurriedly said, "Don't, what's the matter if you accompany me over to the past, if you are seen, it is not good to say." Li Yulan smiled and said, "Yes, I'm a town cadre, walking with you, a city leader, and people still think I'm going to pinch you." Li Rui smiled, "That's not what I mean, what kind of city leader am I, it's just that people are terrible, it's better to be careful." Just tell me how to get there. Li Yulan told him the location in a few words, and asked, "Do you live in the town at night or go to the county," Li Rui said, "I don't know, it's possible." Li Yulan said, "If you live in the town, will you have time to come out at night?" Li Rui heard this and said, "Go to the grain depot." Li Yulan smiled, "That's no longer a grain depot, it's a processing plant." ”

Li Rui said: "I just want to take some time to go over and have a look." Li Yulan said, "Then if you don't leave at night, I'll take you over to have a look." Li Rui said, "I guess when I have time, why will it be more than ten o'clock in the evening, will the processing plant still work at that time?"

Li Yulan said, "Go up, why don't you go up, three shifts." Li Rui said in surprise, "Good guy in the third shift, so busy" Li Yulan said proudly, "Isn't it almost the end of the year, people have to give gifts, the market demand for products is very large, supermarkets, specialty stores, and online stores are sold together, the third line is blooming, and the inventory is almost sold out." Since it sells so well, why don't you work overtime and produce more, you don't know, the dried fruits and cereals in the town are almost empty of raw materials in the factory, and now they have to go to other towns to collect them. ”

Li Rui was surprised and delighted, Li Yulan didn't know, but she knew that the other boss of this processing plant was actually herself, Ding Yijing was just a name, the better the products in the factory were sold, the more money she made, of course she was happy, but thinking of her obscure relationship with Ding Yijing now, she couldn't help but have a headache, if she really broke up with her, it is estimated that she would no longer be willing to help herself be this fake partner, and where would she go to find a new candidate when the time comes

He said, "Okay, I'll go over that night to take a look, I just don't know if you have time to go with me" Li Yulan said, "Yes, some are the way to the grain depot, you must know, I won't wait for you, I'll go over first, wait for you in the factory, just call me when you arrive." ”

The two made an appointment about this, Li Rui followed the road she pointed out, turned south from the T-junction, walked about fifty meters along the street, saw a dirt road to the west, turned over, walked out dozens of meters, and arrived at the gate of the town primary school. Just opposite the entrance of the elementary school, under an earthen wall, an old man in his fifties wearing a dogskin hat sat on a mazar, looking at a shoe stall three meters long, two meters wide, and more than one meter high from the ground. An old earthy yellow Shiba dog honestly lay at his feet. One person and one dog, enjoying the warm afternoon sunshine, but also leisurely.

Li Rui walked to the shoe stall, swept his eyes, and saw that all kinds of old-fashioned cloth shoes and cotton boots were placed, the cloth shoes were all old Han shoes with mille-feuille soles, and the cotton boots were either black high-blogging cotton boots, or the kind of cowhide boots that turned over

The old man sneered, "I don't have that ability. Li Rui smiled and said, "With such a mille-feuille bottom, I will have three pairs, and the shoe sizes are forty, forty-one, and forty-two." Then the old man lazily got up from his horse and picked out three pairs for him. Li Rui took out the forty-second pair of shoes, used the soles of the shoes and the soles of the leather shoes on his feet together, compared the size, the comparison result is basically the same, it seems that the shoes sold by the old man are more accurate, a little relieved, but still added a sentence "Those two pairs are bought by me for others, if they are not suitable, I have to come back to exchange." The old man said, "Come casually, change." ”

Such a mille-feuille old man's shoes, a pair of fifteen yuan, three pairs is forty-five. Li Rui didn't make a counteroffer, let alone issue a ticket, not that he didn't want to open it, but the old man didn't have a ticket at all, anyway, there wasn't much money, and it didn't matter if he came out, but he couldn't care about it, he always thought about spending the public's money, so it would seem greedy and stingy

Back at the hotel, Li Rui handed over the pair of cloth shoes of No. 40 to Feng Jun, and asked him to prepare them for Secretary General Du Minsheng, and he took the other two pairs of shoes and returned to the room to rest for a while.

Song Chaoyang took a lunch break until 1:40 and walked out of the room.

As his secretary, Li Rui's room was across from him. In order to understand his movements for the first time, Li Rui has always kept the door open, and when he saw him coming out of the house, he hurriedly greeted him.

Song Chaoyang saw him waving his hand slightly, and said, "You lie down for a while, I'll go to the bathroom." With that, he left.

He is purely polite, of course Li Rui understands, in fact, when he leaves the house, it means that he is about to start work, he, the secretary of the municipal party committee, is going to work, can he be the secretary and start preparing for the research activities in the afternoon.

In the afternoon, the main purpose was to investigate and inspect the poverty alleviation work of Shuanghe County as a pilot county for poverty alleviation. The county has already made a work report for this purpose, which has been handed over to the secretary of the city leader like Li Rui in advance. When Li Rui was resting just now, he had already read this material, and outlined the key points with a pen, and handed it over to the boss Song Chaoyang later, so that he could have a preliminary understanding.

After Song Chaoyang came back, Li Rui handed over the materials and asked him to take a brief look, in fact, it didn't matter if he didn't look at it, because the leaders of Shuanghe County would make a specific report on it when the meeting was held later.

Song Chaoyang read it at a glance and asked, "What do you think?" Li Rui said, "It's still pretty good to look at the data, but I don't know what the effect is on the ground." Song Chaoyang nodded and said, "The official article has always been beautiful data, but it will shrink when it is implemented." Let's hope Shuanghe County doesn't let us down. ”

After finishing the business, Li Rui said, "Boss, I see that you have walked several miles in leather shoes in the morning, it is really a little hard, just now I went out to buy a pair of cloth shoes, and when you walk long distances or go to the fields and dirt roads, you can change them on, which should be much more comfortable than leather shoes." Song Chaoyang was a little surprised, and said, "Where are you just bought?" Li Rui went back to the house and took the shoes. Song Chaoyang took off his leather shoes, put on this pair of mille-feuille soles, walked a few steps in the room, nodded and praised, "Well, it's good, it fits very well, and it's very comfortable." Hehe, I don't know how long I haven't worn these old men's shoes. Xiao Rui, you have a heart, I want to thank you for my feet. Li Rui saw that he was happy, and he was also happy, and said modestly, "This is what I should do, and I can't praise it." ”

When Song Chaoyang walked out of the hotel wearing cloth shoes, he met Secretary-General Du Minsheng outside, and saw that he was also wearing the same pair of mille-feuille shoes, and couldn't help but smile. Du Minsheng also saw the cloth shoes on his feet and smiled at him.

If the work in the afternoon is just a meeting, neither of the two will change into cloth shoes, the secretary of the municipal party committee and the secretary general of the municipal party committee, wearing old shoes to hold a meeting, how can it be like the two city-level leaders, even if they are small township leaders, I am afraid that no one will wear cloth shoes these years. But the problem is that after the meeting, the two of them will immediately go to the village to inspect the progress of poverty alleviation work. Friends who have been to mountain villages know that the dirt road in the village is bumpy, there are many stones, coupled with the influence of snow and snow, it is even more difficult to walk, wearing leather shoes to walk is simply a living sin, and in the afternoon is not as simple as stringing a family or two farmers, it is likely to take a long way, the two of them have made their feet very hard to walk in the morning, so after getting Li Rui's "filial piety" cloth shoes, they invariably chose to change them.
