In the early morning of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, a long-awaited heavy snow fell on the sky.

Guo Xiaozhou got up from the quilt excitedly, and through the balcony glass, he watched the snow fluttering on the river, the vast world was silvery white, and the winter snow embellished the ugly scaffolding into huge ice sculpture art, and the noisy and dusty construction site road in the past was bright and quiet.

He couldn't help but open the balcony door, and the goose-feathered snowflakes fell on his cheeks and body, and the cold wind blew as hard as he could, but despite this, he was still in a happy mood at the moment.

Snow heralds a good harvest year! A new year is pregnant with new hope!

I went into the bathroom, took a hot shower, and then went to the kitchen, fried myself three eggs, drank a glass of warm milk, and ate two bananas.

At this moment, his cell phone rang.

The call was from the secretary Lei Rixin, the tone was respectful and respectful, and the posture was extremely low.

"Secretary Guo, your car is already waiting downstairs, and the six boxes of wine sent by Secretary Xue of Luxi County have been placed in the trunk for you."

"Thank you, Secretary Lei." Regarding the title, it is indeed a little difficult for Guo Xiaozhou. Generally speaking, the secretary is younger than the leader of the service. Older leaders can affectionately shout "Xiao Lei" or "Rixin", but Lei Rixin is thirty-five years old, close to the ten years old of Da Guo Xiaozhou. Guo Xiaozhou can only choose a general job title - Secretary Lei.

"Secretary Guo, I am good at advocating and bringing the Buick car. Today it was snowing and the road was slippery, so the performance of the new car was slightly safer......"

Guo Xiaozhou is not as rigid as Lei Rixin thinks, such a long distance on a snowy day, even if Lei Rixin does not arrange it, he will ask for a change of car.

He Qing was implicated in Hong Jiye's fraud, and of course the Lexus provided by Hong Jiye was confiscated, and the Buick car was parked in the garage, Guo Xiaozhou didn't mention it, and no one dared to take the initiative to open it. After all, in officialdom, there are still some taboos.

For example, the ex's car and office or secretary are all taboos.

Lei Rixin can think of changing cars in advance, which is enough to prove his vision.

Although many people, including Yang Shiqi and Ye Nanchuan, were surprised, they were surprised how Guo Xiaozhou dared to use Lei Rixin.

Because when He Qing was in his prime, Lei Rixin was the most effective general under him, and he led the implementation of various strikes and strategies on Guo Xiaozhou's side, which can be said to be the most lethal person to Guo Xiaozhou's side.

Guo Xiaozhou said with a smile at the time: "You should have watched the football league in the West, why do the giant football clubs always choose players who have killed and injured themselves?" On the one hand, it represents the strength of the players themselves; The second is to buy back the killer who can hurt him, and at the same time not let him become a killer for other wealthy families to deal with him. Kill more than one stone. ”

Of course, he values Lei Rixin because of Lei Rixin's work ability, ability to grasp proportions, strong dedication and sense of responsibility, and at the same time, Lei Rixin is also good at controlling his own feelings.

Being good at controlling one's own feelings is a sign of a person's mature personality, but not every mature person has good self-control. The secretary, on the other hand, should be able to control himself well at all times, and should not be a person of temperament.

Lei Rixin is very sensible, when he served He Qing, he was dedicated to maintaining the leadership, standing on the outside, this is the necessary quality of a good secretary.

Guo Xiaozhou put on a suit and windbreaker, and went out with a sorted suitcase.

When he left, it is estimated that he will not be able to return to duty until the fifth day of the new year. According to the plan, Wujiang has two New Year's dinners, and after rushing back to Guanghan and his family to have the New Year's dinner in the evening, he will immediately rush to the train station and go to Kyoto to "catch the exam" - the emotional test!

This trip to Kyoto will determine his and Gan's future.

Coming downstairs, Lei Rixin stood next to the Buick, with a layer of snowflakes sprinkled on his body, quickly stepped forward to take his suitcase, put it in the trunk, and then came to Guo Xiaozhou and asked: "Secretary Guo, do you drive by yourself, or ......?"

He knew that Guo Xiaozhou went to Wujiang to have New Year's dinner with friends, which was a very personal matter. Some leaders have the habit of keeping a distance from the secretary and cultivating a sense of awe in the secretary, so many private matters are not open to the secretary.

Especially for people like Lei Rixin, who have "surrendered" to you, the leaders certainly use you and your work ability, and they do not necessarily trust you.

"If you don't have anything special to do today, come with me." Guo Xiaozhou said very easily.

Lei Rixin hurriedly said, "I'm fine, please get in the car." He went around in circles and went to the cab.

It is undeniable that language is the most effective tool for communication, but at present, Guo Xiaozhou and Lei Rixin are still in the run-in period, they are understanding and observing each other, and communication without understanding is pale.

The two didn't say anything all the way, Buick drove slowly on the snow, and the highway had not been closed, but Lei Rixin took the national highway on his own initiative.

Three and a half hours later, they finally arrived at Wujiang Longhui Hotel.

Cheng Gang's secretary, Cao Fang, stood in the hall and waited. Seeing Cao Fang's figure behind the glass gate, Guo Xiaozhou whispered to Lei Rixin.

Lei Rixin's expression was slightly shocked, he had been guessing what kind of party Guo Xiaozhou was involved in, old classmate? Old colleagues? But he definitely didn't expect that the master's level was so high, and it was actually the New Year's dinner party of Cheng Gang, the assistant to the governor. You must know that even if Guo Xiaozhou becomes the acting secretary (the official appointment requires the official appointment of the city after the Spring Festival), the level is only the same as Cheng Gang's secretary, which is as weird as a lion inviting a monkey to his banquet in the eyes of the rational Lei Rixin.

Cao Fang greeted him, stretched out his hand from afar and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Secretary Guo!" If I have the opportunity, I would like to ask Secretary Guo to give me a chance to express my expression. ”

Guo Xiaozhou held his hand, shook it and said, "It's me who should be treated, Brother Cao!" After the festival, we are all a little free and get together together. ”

"It's a deal!" Cao Fang said as he looked at Lei Rixin with some curiosity.

Lei Rixin took out two cigarettes and two bottles of Moutai from the trunk, and respectfully came to Cao Fang, "Hello Director Cao, this is a New Year's gift prepared by Secretary Guo for you, I wish you a happy New Year in advance!" ”

Guo Xiaozhou said, "I won't go to Brother Cao's house to visit during the Spring Festival, congratulations on the New Year in advance!" ”

"Congratulations, congratulations!" Cao Fang smiled, "It's too polite, I'll take it." ”

Lei Rixin asked very smartly, "Where is your car parked, I'll help you get in the car." ”

While Lei Rixin was leaving, Cao Fang looked at his back and said, "This secretary is very good. Cheng Province and the Department of Repair have arrived. ”

When Guo Xiaozhou heard this, he stuck out his tongue and said: "It's very disrespectful to let the two big leaders wait for me!" ”

"Cheng Province also specially explained, let me call you, saying that the snow and the road are slippery, so that you are not in a hurry, safety first. I was worried about the phone call affecting you, so I didn't make this call. ”

Guo Xiaozhou smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Cao, for your concern." By the way, is Brother Cao familiar with Yi Xun from the General Office of the Provincial General Office? ”

Cao Fang smiled and said, "I'm just waiting for you to ask." To say that Yi Xun is a person who has no shortage of talent and can deduct details, but he is not very easy to deal with, his heart is very high, and he is not very convincing......"

Guo Xiaozhou sighed, which was similar to what he imagined.

"He is an absolute admirer of power!" When Cao Fang said this, he shook his head slightly, as if he had no confidence in whether Yi Xun could set up a good team with Guo Xiaozhou.

Guo Xiaozhou humbly asked, "Does Brother Cao have any hints?" ”

Cao Fang thought for a while, looked at Guo Xiaozhou and said, "Yi Xun is not terrible, what is terrible is that Governor Ding trusts him." ”

Guo Xiaozhou suddenly realized, although Cao Fang did not say it explicitly, but hinted at him that Yi Xun was good at using strength, and he went down to the grassroots level with the label of Ding Yi on his head, and undoubtedly carried Ding Yi's decision-making. He must understand clearly what direction Ding Yi's principles and policies are, as long as he does not violate Ding Yi's ideas in the work at the grassroots level, and closely focuses on Ding Yi's thoughts to carry out the work of Chen Ta, so that Yi Xun has no power to borrow.

Two minutes later, Lei Rixin returned to them. The two consciously stopped discussing Yi Xun.

Guo Xiaozhou asked Cao Fang, "What room is it in?" I still have a few cases of wine to deliver. ”

"Hongyi Hall on the eighth floor!" Cao Fang said to Lei Rixin: "Secretary Lei also came up together, and two tables were set up in Chengdu Province today. If you drink the wine, you will hand it over to the secretaries of the leaders later, so you don't have to move it up and down. ”

When Lei Rixin heard this, he was surprised and delighted, but he still said very restrained and responsible: "Thank you, Cao!" Secretary Guo, you go up first, and I'll wait in the car......"

"Let's go together!" Guo Xiaozhou finished the order and walked side by side with Cao Fang.

Lei Rixin followed closely behind him with some emotion. Although he is a "full-time" secretary, he has been working in the county office and dealing with a group of secretaries all day long, and the hardships of the secretaries are obvious to all. All day long, I tried my best to "climb the lattice", ushered in the service, the festival was festive, the lights were bright, relatives and friends gathered, but the secretary was far away from relatives and friends, sticking to the post of the service leader, the leader ate, in some special occasions, the secretaries were not allowed to serve the table, most of the time they could only wait in the car to eat fast food.

He has only been Guo Xiaozhou's secretary for a few days, and Guo Xiaozhou took him to such a private and high-level party, and he was very "respectful" to him, and he didn't put up a fight like He Qing, and he came and went as soon as he called! He secretly thought, is this Guo Xiaozhou's generosity pretended, or is he himself magnificent?

The three of them came to the "Hongyi Hall" on the eighth floor, and the hall was a small hall, and there was a hall inside.

Lei Rixin understood when he entered the hall that the dining table in the small hall was for the secretaries brought by the leaders. The hall inside is the main table. On the sofa in the small hall sat a young man in his early thirties, with a stiff face with clear water chestnuts, and a calm and powerful atmosphere.

This person's name is Zhang Kai, and he is the secretary of Correction Yao, and Guo Xiaozhou has seen it once.

Seeing Guo Xiaozhou coming in, he immediately stood up and greeted Guo Xiaozhou politely, "Hello Secretary Guo!" I'm going to give you a New Year's greeting in advance! ”

The other party's posture is low, that is because Guo Xiaozhou stands at the height of correcting Yao, in fact, Zhang Kai is also at the level of deputy director, and his power cannot be compared, one is in the center of the provincial department, and the other is at the helm at the grassroots level.

"Hello Director Zhang! Happy New Year to you! Good luck! Guo Xiaozhou took the lead and shook hands with Zhang Kai.

Next, Cao Fang introduced Zhang Kai and Lei Rixin.

Lei Rixin was more and more shocked when he heard that the other party was actually the secretary of the executive deputy director of the Provincial Public Security Department, Correction Yao, which means that Cheng Gang's circle is basically a department-level senior official like Correction Yao, and he doesn't know if there will be any senior leaders or "special" figures like Guo Xiaozhou.

But even so, he was already drunk!

This means that he, as a deputy section-level secretary, will have a New Year's dinner with several secretaries of the principal and deputy departments, one is the secretary of the assistant to the provincial governor, and the other is the secretary of the director of the public security department.

What surprised him even more was that Cheng Gang and Correction Yao in the hall heard Guo Xiaozhou's voice, and the two actually greeted him together.

"Brother Guo!" Cheng Gang had a smile on his face.

"Secretary Guo! You owe us a meal! Correction Yao and Guo Xiaozhou quipped.

Guo Xiaozhou shook hands with the two and promised, "I will definitely treat you at the beginning of spring, I'm afraid that the two big leaders will be busy!" ”

Correcting Yao Zhengse said: "Brother Guo has a treat, I dare not come." Wujiang's son-in-law buddy still swallowed me. ”

The "Brother Guo" in his words has a ridiculous meaning. Cao Fang and Zhang Kai understood the meaning. But Lei Rixin was shocked beyond measure. Oh my god! Correction Yao actually called him Brother Guo, this is the rhythm of going against the sky!

He was in a trance, shocked, and in a trance, while desperately adjusting himself. Since the leader he serves is neither humble nor arrogant in front of Cheng Gang Xiuyao, and sits on an equal footing, then he must also change his strategy, and when communicating with these "big secretaries" for a while, he must not cower and lose Guo Xiaozhou's face.
