The weather in July has been hot and dry, but on the day Guo Xiaozhou took office, a light rain fell over the mountain.

Guo Xiaozhou got out of the taxi, took the suitcase from the trunk in the drizzle, and trotted up the steps of the building to escape the rain.

Just now in the taxi, he heard the weather forecast, saying that there will be continuous light rain in the next few days, and even the possibility of heavy rain is not ruled out.

The taxi driver complained about the damn weather along the way.

Guo Xiaozhou joked, "Isn't your business better when it rains?" ”

Who knew that the taxi driver shook his head again and again, saying that his hometown is in the countryside, and July is the harvest season in the countryside, if it continues to rain in the past few days, the crops to be harvested will be full of rain, which is a strict impact on the harvest, and the grain output will be greatly reduced.

Guo Xiaozhou, who also came from a rural area, knows that if it rains again in mid-to-late July, it will be a virtuous circle for agricultural production. It's just that who can control the weather and climate?

However, the driver did have a lot of complaints, saying that the factors that caused this strange climate are inescapable of the city leaders, saying that they should control polluting enterprises, reduce carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide emissions, drive green cars and other measures.

Guo Xiaozhou smiled with interest: "As far as I know, Shunshan has done a good job in Xihai Province, and I read the newspaper that the city government had relocated all the chemical polluting enterprises in the city and even in the suburbs the year before last. ”

"Haha! Do you know where these companies have gone? Lu'an, Jiangtang, Wuxi, these three counties and cities are less than 100 kilometers away from Shunshan City, surrounded by Shunshan City in three directions, and the big chimneys in their three directions are opened, whether it is the southeast and northwest winds, Shunshan City can still run? In the past, this Lu'an and Wuxi were the back gardens of Shunshan City, the green lungs of the city...... Ay! Now these leaders, for the sake of political achievements, fool themselves and fool the people......"

Guo Xiaozhou's heart moved, "Lu An, I know, there is a Fuding Chemical Science and Technology Industrial Park, which seems to be a national torch base and a provincial high-tech park......

The driver laughed, "You are a foreigner, don't you know, what high-tech industrial parks, are some polluting enterprises that have been driven away by the city, and they have landed in Lu'an, I have a relative in Lu'an's Fulin Town, this town used to be green mountains and green waters, it was a large agricultural town, with a population of tens of thousands, and now what?" Rich people have moved to Shunshan City, and those with a little money go to Lu'an County to buy a house, and those who have no money are unlucky, breathing polluted air every day and creating evil! ”

Guo Xiaozhou raised his eyebrows, "How could the leaders of Lu'an County accept these enterprises?" Isn't this a scourge for the local area, a disaster for thousands of years? ”

The driver snorted in his mouth, "It's not Lu An's big leader yet...... The famous secretary Ou Chaoyang, he and the secretary of the municipal party committee of Shunshan are wearing a pair of pants, and other counties refuse to accept it, but he wants to please the top boss, and there are many benefits, the financial and tax revenue has increased significantly, the employment rate is super high, and the political achievements have been achieved, the city leaders owe him favors, and the business leaders owe favors to others, which are all benefits! Besides, he has political achievements, and after working for a year or two, he can't be promoted to the city to be promoted and make a fortune......"

Guo Xiaozhou also wanted to continue to talk to the driver who was "worried about the country and the people", but unfortunately the car had already arrived in front of the municipal party committee building.

During the time he was waiting for the leaders of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee to go downstairs, he kept thinking about the driver's complaints.

For Lu'an County, where he was about to take office, his originally calm state of mind suddenly rippled. It seems that he has to face not only the adversity in Lu Anzheng's ecology, but also the big ecological problems.

Compared with the political ecosystem, he is not very worried, but the soldiers are coming to block the water and cover the earth. But the thought of a city he was facing with such a serious environmental problem made his heart heavy.

Zheng Xiaofan, head of the Cadre Section of the Municipal Organization Department, finally appeared in Guo Xiaozhou's field of vision with two people.

Although Zheng Xiaofan was five minutes later than the agreed meeting time, Guo Xiaozhou still took the initiative to greet him with a smiling face, "Section Chief Zheng, the two of you, have you eaten early, I invite you." ”

Zheng Xiaofan smiled, "I've eaten, thank you!" County Magistrate Guo, I'm sorry, I'll keep you waiting for a long time. Just about to go out, I encountered something urgent, and I dealt with it temporarily, delaying your time. ”

"It's okay!" Guo Xiaozhou kept a polite smile. What these people do to him is not the focus of his contention, and he can ignore it.

In Zheng Xiaofan's introduction, I learned that the two people who followed Zheng Xiaofan were a section member of the Party and Government Cadre Section and a driver.

Before getting into the car, Zheng Xiaofan frowned and looked at the sky, and said, "Unlucky, it actually rained today......

Guo Xiaozhou followed him into the car, looked at Zheng Xiaofan's back, and vaguely noticed something. Sighing secretly, it seems that today is really not a good weather.

When he got into the car, Zheng Xiaofan didn't say much, and he didn't talk about business at all.

Guo Xiaozhou was also happy to close his eyes and recuperate.

Probably due to the rain, there were not many vehicles on the highway, and before 10 o'clock in the morning, the vehicles arrived at the exit of the Lu'an County Expressway.

At the exit of the expressway, four or five cars were parked, and nearly ten people were waiting in front of the car with umbrellas.

When Guo Xiaozhou followed Zheng Xiaofan out of the car, a short, sturdy middle-aged man with an umbrella walked up quickly, wearing a brand-name T-shirt, slacks, casual shoes, and powerful steps.

He first quickly stretched out his hand to Zheng Xiaofan, and said with a smile on his face: "Welcome Section Chief Zheng to our Lu'an, Secretary Ou went to the township today to guide the harvest work, and before leaving, he specially explained to me, you must be left behind, and he will try to rush back in the afternoon to drink a few glasses of Lu'an wine with you." ”

Zheng Xiaofan's face was originally a little tense, but he also smiled at this time, he and the visitor warmly shook hands, and said politely: "Secretary Ou thinks too highly of me, the work is important, and I have an important meeting to attend in the afternoon, so I will trouble Secretary Bai to convey my apologies to Secretary Ou." Secretary Bai, let me introduce to you, this is the new county magistrate of Lu'an County, Comrade Guo Xiaozhou, in the future, you will be a comrade-in-arms in the trenches. ”

When Guo Xiaozhou heard the three words Secretary Bai, he knew that this man was Bai Yongmin, member of the Standing Committee of the Lu'an County Party Committee and deputy secretary of the county party committee, in charge of party building and organizational work, and was the third person in the power sequence of Lu'an County, second only to Ou Chaoyang and him.

Guo Xiaozhou doesn't know much about this key person, according to legend, this is a deputy secretary of Hexi, who has no position of his own, and he raised his hand when Ou Chaoyang agreed, so he could stand by Ou Chaoyang's side.

But Guo Xiaozhou believes that it is impossible for a leader who can climb to the position of deputy secretary of the county party committee without faith and goals in his heart, and before he comes, this person is an important target person he needs to understand and accept.

Therefore, at the moment when Bai Yongmin stretched out his hand, Guo Xiaozhou took the initiative to take two steps forward and held Bai Yongmin's hand tightly, "Secretary Bai, I am a recruit in Lu'an County, and in the future, I hope you will give me a lot of advice!" ”

Such a humble young county magistrate? This is the complete opposite of the legendary flying power! Bai Yongmin's eyes flashed with a hint of brilliance, and he shook Guo Xiaozhou's hand enthusiastically, "Secretary Guo, you are too modest, we learn from each other and are in harmony!" Do a good job in the construction of Luan. ”

As he spoke, he turned to introduce the man behind him.

"This is Han Dechang, the deputy county magistrate of the county government."

"This is Deputy County Magistrate Song Gaowen."

"This is ......"

Without waiting for Bai Yongmin to finish speaking, Zhan Shaowen, who was standing behind him, suddenly put down his umbrella, stretched out his hands and said respectfully: "County Magistrate Guo, I welcome you on behalf of the county government office!" ”

Seeing the rain gradually drenching his hair, Guo Xiaozhou took the initiative to help him hold an umbrella while shaking hands with him, and said to Bai Yongmin with a smile: "We know, Director Zhan, don't get drenched in the rain, your body is the capital of your work!" ”

Zhan Shaowen excitedly went to grab Guo Xiaozhou's umbrella, "How dare you be, I'll ...... it"

Bai Yongmin's eyes flashed with a scornful light, and he said to Zheng Xiaofan and Guo Xiaozhou with a smile, "Zheng Ke, County Magistrate Guo, this is not the place to talk, let's go to the county party committee first, the welcome meeting has been prepared, just wait for the arrival of the leaders." ”

When he got into the car, Zheng Xiaofan invited Bai Yongmin to get into his car. It stands to reason that Guo Xiaozhou should also continue to sit in the car of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee.

But Guo Xiaozhou suddenly said to Zhan Shaowen, "Director Zhan, did the government office bring a car?" ”

Zhan Shaowen nodded again and again, "There is a ......"

"Okay, I'll take your car and go."

Zhan Shaowen said with a pleasant face: "Please! The fourth ......"

After getting into the car, the convoy headed towards the county.

Zhan Shaowen glanced at the driver and said in a low voice: "Today, the weather is not beautiful, it suddenly rained, and many members of the Standing Committee of the county party committee failed to greet you." ”

Guo Xiaozhou said indifferently: "It's okay." But there is a flame rising in his heart, the twelve members of the Standing Committee of the county party committee of Lu'an County, today there is actually a white Yongmin, no matter how you say it, he is the leader of the county government of Lu'an County, the second person in the Standing Committee. This matter will soon spread throughout Shunshan and Lu'an, and before he, the county magistrate, officially took office, most of his prestige was lost.

This was Ou Chaoyang's first slap to him! It's just not saving face at all, this slap is slapped hard and fast!

No wonder Zheng Xiaofan of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee looked reluctant, it turned out that people had expected that there would be no high-level reception. The deputy ministers simply avoided the matter.

Seeing that Guo Xiaozhou had no interest in speaking, Zhan Shaowen did not dare to speak.

When the convoy entered the city, Guo Xiaozhou suddenly said to Zhan Shaowen, "Director Zhan, you call Secretary Bai and tell him that the ceremony of the welcome party can be canceled, and everyone can return to work." ”

Zhan Shaowen was stunned, he had imagined Guo Xiaozhou's counterattack, but he definitely didn't expect that the young county magistrate would actually refuse to participate in the welcome meeting of the county party committee and county government.

"County Magistrate Guo, this is a little un...... There will also be a welcome reception at noon......"

"The banquet is even more unnecessary, today I have already met the main leaders of the party and government in Lu'an County. Other leaders can slowly get to know each other in their future work. Guo Xiaozhou looked at him calmly and said: "You sue Secretary Bai, I came to Lu'an County to serve the people, not to mobilize the people, affect the normal work order of the government, and hold a welcome meeting with great fanfare, I think the people of Lu'an have not received any benefits, it will only increase the economic burden of the government, and it will affect the reputation of the government. The concept of "diligence and thrift" runs counter, and instead of doing some face-saving things in a flashy way, the government should calm down and do some practical things for the people in a down-to-earth manner. ”

Listening to these words, Zhan Shaowen seemed to see a sharp sword unsheathed, and he couldn't help but sweat beads on his forehead, "...... Am I telling you what you say? ”

Guo Xiaozhou looked at the side of the street and hummed softly.

Ou Chaoyang, you slapped me, and I gave you a louder slap
