The car has driven to the roundabout at the entrance, and the uphill slope around the roundabout is the gate of the city hall. The front of the car has slowly turned around, and it is slowly coming this way.

Liang Jian took a step forward and waited.

At this moment, Shen Lianqing, who was following behind him, suddenly frowned, lowered his head and took out his mobile phone. After looking at it, he hesitated, walked to the side, and picked up the phone softly: "Hello." ”

The call came from the office of the Qizhou Desert Institute. As soon as Shen Lianqing's voice fell, he could hear him ask, "Is it Shen Lianqing's secretary?"

"I am. Is there anything wrong?" asked Shen Lianqing.

The other party replied: "Is Secretary Liang next to him?" ”

Shen Lianqing glanced at Liang Jian's back and replied: "Secretary Liang is not very convenient to have something to do now, otherwise, if you have something urgent, tell me first." If you're not in a hurry, when Secretary Liang is done, can I ask him to call your director back?"

The other party quieted down, probably to discuss something with someone.

At this time, the car had already stopped at the door.

Liang Jian stepped forward and opened the rear door of the No. 1 car. Diao Yimin sat inside, glanced at Liang Jian, and then slowly came out of it. Diao Yimin has limited mobility and often carries a crutch. Today, it was also this crutch that went out first, and I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, this crutch hit Liang Jian's leg lightly or severely. It doesn't hurt much, but it's not light.

Diao Yimin didn't seem to notice, and came out as if nothing happened. Liang Jian shook hands with him, he raised his eyelids to look at Liang Jian, and after touching his hands perfunctorily, he immediately turned to Lou Jiangyuan.

Liang Jian was not surprised.

After the routine, it's time to head to the conference room.

When he walked inside, Shen Lianqing caught up and pulled Liang Jian's sleeve covertly. Liang Jian glanced at Diao Yimin, who was chatting with Lou Jiangyuan, and slowed down and asked Shen Lianqing softly, "What's wrong?"

Shen Lianqing lowered his voice and replied, "The Qizhou Desert Institute called just now. ”

Liang Jian first thought of the fact that he had made an appointment to go today, so he said, "Didn't you inform them yesterday?"

Shen Lianqing replied: "I have been informed, but the director of the desert institute seems to be very angry that we did not go." ”

Liang Jian frowned, thinking that this person was also a little 'interesting'. Things changed and Liang Jian didn't hope. Since I have explained it to them, I specially called to ask them, but I really don't understand personnel. However, sooner or later, there will be contact with the desert. No matter how strange it is, you have to endure it.

In front, Diao Yimin and Lou Jiangyuan and their group have already walked out of a distance. Liang Jian replied with some displeasure: "You apologize to their director on my behalf first, and when I finish my busy work here, I will call their director to apologize in person." ”

Shen Lianqing hesitated for a moment and said, "Their director said that we are not welcome in the future." ”

Liang Jian frowned, what kind of bad is this, such a big temper! Although this matter is not good for them first, but Diao Yimin suddenly wants to come to investigate, Liang Jian can't leave the provincial secretary and go to Qizhou. Since I have tried my best to notify in advance and apologize, it is really hateful that this director should be so difficult.

Liang Jian's heart was full of 100,000 alpacas, but in the end, he could only endure it if he wanted to be in the desert. Plus it's a very moment.

Just as Liang Jian was trying to swallow the fly, someone in front of him suddenly called out to him: "Secretary Liang, the elevator is coming." ”

Liang Jian looked up and saw that Guang Yuyuan was walking quickly over here. Liang Jian hurriedly walked forward, but still didn't catch up. When he walked to the elevator door, Diao Yimin and Lou Jiangyuan had already entered the elevator. But the door was not closed yet, and when Liang Jian was hesitating to go in, suddenly Diao Yimin inside said to him: "Liang Jian, you just wait for the next elevator!"

Liang Jian was stunned for a moment, then nodded and replied, "Okay." Then he turned his eyes to Lou Jiangyuan and said, "Then Comrade Jiang Yuan will accompany Secretary Diao and several leaders to go up first." ”

"This is what I should do, why work hard!" Lou Jiangyuan replied: "Secretary Liang is polite. ”

With that, the elevator door slowly closed. Liang Jian took a step back, and the two met their eyes in the air, no sparks, only their own calmness.

He Changqing didn't get into the elevator either. Among the Standing Committee members, Comrade Zhu Qi and Comrade Xu Lei entered. Xu Lei was unwell and had been recuperating in a nursing home. This time, the provincial secretary Diao Yimin suddenly wanted to come to investigate, Liang Jian didn't want to inform Xu Lei, but after thinking about it, he still notified him personally. After Xu Lei received the notice, he came back from the sanatorium last night.

In the elevator, He Changqing stood next to Liang Jian and said softly: "The person who came is not good!"

Liang Jian smiled and said, "The water comes to cover the earth!"

He Changqing laughed, no lie.

The first half of the sentence is that the soldiers will block. If you want to ask the position, Diao Yimin is the provincial secretary, Liang Jian is the secretary of the municipal party committee, Liang Jian is a soldier, and Diao Yimin is a general.

He Changqing's smile meant very clearly. Mingde, who heard what the two were talking next to, lowered his head and didn't speak.

Liang Jian and the others went to the conference room, and the people in charge of logistics were busy inside. Zhu Qi, who came up in the same elevator with Diao Yimin just now, was already inside, but Xu Lei was not there, Lou Jiangyuan was not there, and Diao Yimin was nowhere to be seen.

When Liang Jian saw Zhu Qi, Zhu Qi also saw Liang Jian and greeted him. Liang Jian frowned, and without waiting for Zhu Qi to get closer, he asked, "What about Secretary Diao?"

Zhu Qi replied: "Secretary Diao said that he was a little tired and wanted to take a rest first, let me come down and inform you, the meeting time was postponed for an hour." ”

Liang Jian felt a little unhappy in his heart, and this schedule had been confirmed with the secretary general of the provincial party committee. Originally, Liang Jian's arrangement was that Diao Yimin would rest for half an hour before starting the meeting after he arrived, but after this arrangement was sent, the secretary general of the provincial party committee crossed this line. Liang Jian remembered that he also asked the reason at that time, and he still remembered the secretary-general's answer clearly: "There are many trips, so I won't rest in the morning, let's have dinner in the afternoon!"

Liang Jian crossed out the half-hour break and changed it to start the meeting directly after arriving. But now it's like that again. Although for Liang Jian, this is not a big deal, the lounge is ready. If you change it, you will change it, but this kind of behavior makes Liang Jian a little uncomfortable.

Liang Jian tried his best not to let this writing be uncomfortable on his face, and continued to ask Zhu Qi calmly: "Then has Secretary Diao gone to the lounge now?"

Zhu Qi glanced at him and replied, "I don't know about this." ”

"Then you should go and rest first. Liang Jian said to Zhu Qi. After speaking, he turned his head and asked Shen Lianqing and the logistics here to inform him.

An hour, and that's not a short time. Diao Yimin didn't let him go to the conference room, and obviously didn't want to see him. In that case, he didn't go to join in the fun. After instructing Shen Lianqing to go to the lounge to check the situation, he went back to the office first. He Changqing and Mingde also followed.

Entering the door, as soon as the door closed, He Changqing glanced at Liang Jian, and suddenly turned his head and asked Mingde: "Mingju, does Secretary Diao know Lao Xu?"

Liang Jian looked at He Changqing in surprise, and then at Mingde, with a blank look on his face.

What kind of medicine did He Changqing start selling again? Liang Jian muttered in his heart, but he also raised his spirit. He Changqing has never been a purposeless person, and there must be a reason why he asked.

Mingde was stunned for a few seconds before replying, "This, I don't know." After speaking, he frowned again and asked, "Do they know each other?" I don't seem to have heard Lao Xu mention it!"

Xu Lei is the oldest member of the Standing Committee, with a good personality and a smile on everyone. Therefore, many people in this city government have a good relationship with him, and they all like to call him Lao Xu.

After He Changqing heard Mingde say this, he looked at Liang Jian and said: "I also think it's strange, just now at the elevator door, after Secretary Diao and Comrade Jiang Yuan went in, there was not much space in the elevator, and we all wanted to wait for the next elevator, and suddenly Secretary Diao opened his mouth and personally called Xu Lei in." ”

Speaking of this, Mingde seemed to remember this scene, and immediately said: "It seems a little strange that you say this. Moreover, Secretary Diao's name is Lao Xu, and he is also called Lao Xu. If this is not a familiar person, and it is such a relationship between superiors and subordinates, it is generally not called that, right?"

Liang Jian frowned, He Changqing and Mingde analyzed this, and between Xu Lei and Diao Yimin, it seems that there is really such a thing.

However, Diao Yimin was also transferred from outside, and the time was not long, not much longer than Liang Jian's time in Taihe. If you want to say that the two know each other, it is very likely that they have known each other before, and the relationship is not shallow!

The relationship between Diao Yimin and Liang Jian is tense, and when he heard that Xu Lei and Diao Yimin have a good relationship, Liang Jian will inevitably subconsciously think about the bad place. However, after thinking about it, he immediately extinguished these thoughts.

Liang Jian's current situation, with Diao Yimin in front and Lou Jiangyuan in the back, really can't set up enemies for himself anymore. So before everything was decided, Liang Jian could only define Xu Lei as neutral first. Of course, you can't have the heart to guard against people, and in the future, we still have to pay a little attention.

He Changqing and Mingde didn't sit in Liang Jian's office for long, and after sitting for a while, He Changqing had a phone call, and he went out. Matilda found a reason and went out.

Liang Jian took advantage of the fact that there was still some time to call back to the desert station.

The office of the Desert Institute received a call from Liang Jian, and without saying a word, he transferred the call to the director of the Desert Institute. As soon as Liang Jian was about to open his mouth to apologize, he was scolded by a slashing head and covering his face. probably means that Liang Jian is not respectful enough, and since the itinerary has changed, Liang Jian should call him personally to explain the reason and apologize. But Liang Jian let a secretary do it, which is disrespectful to him.

The director of the Qizhou Desert Institute is a member of the Xiling Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and it is said that he also holds the post of the National People's Congress. Liang Jian didn't know much about it. When he scolded Liang Jian, his tone was a lecture. Liang Jian thought that if he wanted to ask for others, he endured them one by one. Like a grandson, he scolded him for five or six minutes, and only when he was tired of scolding did he stop: "Director Qin, I'm really sorry for today's incident." I'm here to apologize to you. It's really my fault, you're right, I didn't think it too well, I'm sorry to worry about you. You don't think this will work, what about you just don't remember the villain, give me a chance, how about I apologize to you in person next time?"

On the other side, Qin Haiming, the director of Qin, first scolded a few words before relenting and said, "Seeing that you are quite sensible, then I won't bother with you." However, this time, in order to welcome you, the institute has been busy for two days, and the comrades in this institute are busy with work, coming and going in the desert every day, and they are very tired every day, and they have to worry about this matter. As a result, you released the pigeons at the end of the day. They have some complaints in their hearts, what should we do about this matter, you Secretary Liang can watch and handle it! Let me remind you first that these comrades in the institute are all stubborn intellectuals, and they all admit to death. If you don't let them feel comfortable, if you take such a breath, maybe you will turn around and make some trouble for you!"

Director Xie Qin reminded. Comrades are indeed working hard, and I know this in my heart. Rest assured, I will face this problem squarely and calm everyone's emotions. Liang Jian said.

"Okay, since you know everything. So let's do it first. After Director Qin finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
