After Chu Mingyuan listened to Chen Qingdong's words, he couldn't help but look at the inkstone thoughtfully, and said: "Qingdong, your inkstone is your family's old thing, it means a lot to you, I can't accept it." ”

Chen Qingdong said: "Minister Chu, this inkstone has been placed here for many years, I can't write calligraphy, and I have never used this inkstone, so this inkstone has been hidden in the kitchen for many years. To be honest, I've almost forgotten that there is this inkstone. It wasn't until a few days ago that when I was about to come to pay New Year's greetings to Minister Chu, I remembered that there was still this inkstone, and I knew that Minister Chu loved to write calligraphy, so I wanted to give this inkstone to Minister Chu. If it's always put in my kitchen, it's really tantamount to a pearl. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Qingdong observed that Chu Mingyuan's face did not change, then paused, and then continued: "Actually, Minister Chu, you also know that although Xu Gongyan is very famous, his output is also very large, so it is not worth much. It's just that this inkstone was given by the old professor, so it has more cultural heritage. I know that Minister Chu is a master of calligraphy, so I feel that giving this inkstone to Minister Chu will definitely give full play to its maximum value. If it's someone who doesn't like calligraphy, I'll give it to him, and he doesn't want it. ”

After saying this, Chen Qingdong also plucked up the courage and deliberately said: "When the old professor gave my grandfather this inkstone, he wanted to convey the word 'friendship', and I gave this inkstone to Minister Chu as a New Year's gift today, and I also wanted to pass on the word 'friendship'. However, the gap between me and Minister Chu's level is too big, so it may be too abrupt to say so. ”

Chu Mingyuan smiled knowingly and said: "Qingdong, friendship knows no level, the reason why I contacted you is naturally to leave the level behind." Otherwise, to put it mildly, with your level, it will still be difficult to enter my house. ”

Chen Qingdong was very happy to listen to Chu Mingyuan's words, it seems that in Chu Mingyuan's heart, the relationship between the two of them is one step deeper than Chen Qingdong thinks!

Just understanding this, it would be worth coming to Chu Mingyuan tonight!

At this moment, Chen Qingdong can probably be sure that on the road to his career in the future, Chu Mingyuan, a department-level official with great power and great prospects, is likely to be another backer of his own!

Thinking of this, Chen Qingdong was very excited, and immediately said: "Yes, Minister Chu, I understand, otherwise I wouldn't dare to come to you rashly to greet the New Year." ”

Chu Mingyuan smiled, changed the topic and said, "Qingdong, what you said just now is not bad. A good inkstone will be worth a thousand gold if it is placed in the person who likes it, but if it is placed in the person who does not like it, it can even be said to be worthless. Hehe, well, since you have some mind, put the inkstone here with me first, and play with it for a few days. I don't have any other hobbies, my only hobby is to write calligraphy, so I am very interested in the four treasures of pen, ink, paper and inkstone. However, no matter how you say it, your inkstone is also something of special significance to you, if you want to take it back when you want to, just come and get it, I will definitely not withhold it. ”

Chen Qingdong knew that Chu Mingyuan had taken a fancy to this inkstone, in fact, Chen Qingdong knew early on that as long as Chu Mingyuan recognized the inscription on this inkstone, then he would definitely leave the inkstone, even if he didn't care about the value of the inkstone, he would definitely use this inkstone inkstone to write calligraphy and recall the demeanor of some celebrities!

Although Chen Qingdong can't write calligraphy, he can probably figure out this mentality.

The reason why Chu Mingyuan said this was completely to find a step for himself, and Chen Qingdong followed Chu Mingyuan's words and said: "Okay, Minister Chu, I remember!"

Chu Mingyuan seemed to have a lot of experience in receiving gifts, and after flicking the cigarette ash, he immediately changed the topic, so as not to make the atmosphere awkward by always talking about this topic.

"Qingdong, your county secretary Xu is about to be transferred to the city, have you heard?" Chu Mingyuan asked.

Chen Qingdong understood that Chu Mingyuan would definitely know that he had come to pay homage to him at this time, and he brought such a gift, which must be related to Xu Minglei's work adjustment.

However, Chen Qingdong didn't expect Chu Mingyuan to take the initiative to bring up this topic, but this is a good sign.

"I heard. Chen Qingdong said honestly, "It seems that the grapevine says that Secretary Xu will go to the city government to serve as deputy mayor, and I don't know if it's true or not." ”

Chu Mingyuan smiled and said, "The gossip can still be spread to eight or nine." This matter has been decided, and it doesn't matter if I tell you in advance, Secretary Xu does want to serve as deputy mayor of the municipal government, but he can't enter the Standing Committee yet. After all, the number of members of the Standing Committee on the government's side is still smaller. However, with Secretary Xu's qualifications and level, he should stay up for a year or two, and when he has a seat in the Standing Committee, the possibility of Secretary Xu adding it is still very high. ”

Chen Qingdong didn't want to comment on these things in front of Chu Mingyuan, so he just nodded slightly.

Chu Mingyuan said again: "Qingdong, after Secretary Xu is transferred to the city, do you have any considerations?"

Chen Qingdong smiled bitterly, and said frankly: "I have been working in Liulin for several years, Secretary Xu has admired me very much, and I can make today's progress thanks to Secretary Xu's trust in me, so whether it is from work or personal feelings, I hope to follow Secretary Xu to the city." But I also know that after Secretary Xu arrives in the city, it may take a period of adaptation, and it is not easy to arrange for me. ”

Chu Mingyuan didn't seem to expect Chen Qingdong to be so honest, he couldn't help but look at Chen Qingdong twice, and said: "Actually, it's not difficult for you to come to the city, after all, the achievements you have made in Chenqiao for more than a year are very outstanding, and your reputation is also very loud, and even many leaders of the municipal party committee and the municipal government know you." Some time ago, when Deputy Secretary Yuanzhi gave us an organizational work meeting, he also mentioned you, saying that your grassroots party building work in Chenqiao is very good. ”

Chen Qingdong's heart couldn't help but move, he knew that the "deputy secretary of Yuanzhi" that Chu Mingyuan said was Wu Yuanzhi, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee!

Chen Qingdong really didn't expect that he would even enter the eyes of Deputy Secretary Wu Yuanzhi!

It's just that Wu Yuanzhi praised himself for doing a good job in grassroots party building, which made Chen Qingdong a little crying and laughing, because he really didn't put much effort into party building work, and most of his energy was focused on rectifying order, developing the economy and building people's livelihood.

Of course, the grassroots party building work in Chenqiao Town has indeed achieved outstanding results, and it has been in the top three in Liulin County for several consecutive years, but these are the merits of the original deputy secretary Zhang Zhongde.

It seems that those who have done too well for their own propaganda work have been so good that in Wu Yuanzhi's place, these credits belonging to others have also been credited to themselves.

At this time, I heard Chu Mingyuan continue: "It's just that it's easy to transfer you to the city, but it's hard to say whether I can arrange a suitable position for you." Qingdong, I know that you are a practical person, and you are in the limelight right now, so it is obviously not good for your development to arrange an idle position for you. ”

Chen Qingdong responded: "What Minister Chu said is, in fact, I also understand that for me, the most realistic thing is to continue to stay in Liulin, train hard for a few more years, and then enter the city when I have experience and opportunities." ”

"Well, that's the best fit for you, and it's good if you think so. Chu Mingyuan said, "If there is a suitable opportunity in the future, I will also consider it for you." ”

Chen Qingdong didn't expect Chu Mingyuan to give himself a promise so directly, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, thinking that he still didn't know Chu Mingyuan well enough before, it turned out that Chu Mingyuan was still such a straightforward person!

"Minister Chu, thank you so much!" Chen Qingdong said gratefully.

Chu Mingyuan waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about this." ”

Then, Chu Mingyuan continued: "However, Qingdong, I still have to remind you that after Secretary Xu leaves Liulin, you may still suffer some shocks. After all, you used to be a big celebrity around Secretary Xu, you are not very old, but your level is not low, and there are so many people who are famous, there will definitely be many people who are blushing at you. In the past, Secretary Xu was in Liulin, and even if these people were blushing at you, they didn't dare to do anything, but in the future, it's hard to say. ”

Chen Qingdong said: "Minister Chu, to be honest, in fact, I also have these two concerns, so I just said that I want to come to the city with Secretary Xu." ”

Chu Mingyuan smiled and said: "If someone shelters you, of course you will grow up very smoothly, but in the same way, just like a small tree under a big tree cannot grow into a tree, it is impossible for a person who has not experienced setbacks to really take charge alone." Qingdong, you are still young, and it is actually a good thing to experience a little setback. ”

Chen Qingdong smiled bitterly to himself, and said in his heart, it's not that I haven't experienced setbacks, but I have experienced too many setbacks, and I really don't want to experience setbacks anymore!

On the surface, Chen Qingdong still looked very understanding and said: "Minister Chu, you are right!"

Chu Mingyuan nodded, and said, "Qingdong, having said that, I will give you a brief analysis of the form and try to deal with it as much as possible." ”

Chen Qingdong was shocked and said, "Okay, thank you Minister Chu!"

Chu Mingyuan said: "I think that if someone targets you at that time, it will mainly come from two aspects. The first is the people who have the same eye on you, and the second is the people you have offended in the past. There should be two ways for them to target you, the first is to test and even suppress you through your county leaders, and the second is that they will find your black materials to rectify you. ”

Chen Qingdong actually thought the same way, so he nodded, and waited for Chu Mingyuan to continue.

Chu Mingyuan said again: "For those who want to suppress you through your county leaders, it's better to say a little bit, in addition to actively building a good relationship with your leaders, I will also find an opportunity to say hello to Ying Zongjie, Xiang Xiaobin, and Lu Guangming, and let them protect you as much as possible." But for those who want to fix your black material, it just depends on whether your ass is clean or not. ”

Chen Qingdong responded: "Yes, Minister Chu." ”
