In the middle of the month, Ye Shisheng Xin held a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, and passed a resolution after a warm discussion, approving the proposal submitted by Yan City on the construction of a water city and the addition of a new area, as an extension of the industrial structure adjustment policy of Yan Province, the two major projects of Yan City will be given key policy and financial support as key projects of Yan Province!

As a result, the curtain of Yan City's great strides forward was officially opened.

Soon, Yan City invited experts from the capital and abroad to officially order the new district to be the Xiama District, and completely adopted Xia Xiang's nomination for all-round planning and design, and strived to make the Xiama District the most comfortable and perfect new district with complete comprehensive facilities, perfect facilities, and both living and working.

At the invitation of the Yanshi Municipal Government, Xia Xiang also partially participated in the planning of the Xiama District.

At the same time, the water system around the city and the various investment promotion work in the Xiama District are also in full swing. After a series of tenders and competitive bidding, Envision Group finally stood out as the developer of the water system around the city. After the New Year's Day of 203, the Yanshi Municipal Government determined Dacai Group, Envision Group, Jiangshan Real Estate, Qishi Group, Shanshui Company, Jicheng's Property and Tian'an Real Estate, etc., as the first batch of investors to settle in the new area, and each of them determined the investment project.

It can be said that the speed of investment promotion in the Xiama District is unprecedentedly fast. Because the district party committee and district government have not yet been formally established in Xiama District, Vice Mayor Gao Hai will temporarily preside over the investment promotion work in Xiama District.

Regarding the establishment of the Hama District Party Committee and District Government. The municipal party committee decided that the Spring Festival boat would be formally discussed again.

In fact, when the decision was made to establish the dismount area, many people were moved by the wind and inquired about the establishment and composition of the dismount area. Yan City is a sub-provincial city, and the municipal district is a deputy department-level establishment. The most important thing that Yan City and Yan Province lack is a large number of department-level cadres, and suddenly there is such a great opportunity in front of them, who is not excited? If you don't move, you're not a person in officialdom, or you're a fool! Countless people have gone to great lengths to inquire about the inside situation, and not only have a large number of department-level cadres who think they have enough qualifications to move around, but even some deputy department-level Fengbu who are not satisfactory in their original positions have also moved their minds and want to move their positions, and they have also used their housekeeping skills to intercede with others, and they all want to get a half-official position in the district party committee and government of Xiama District.

Even some cadres at the deputy department level, knowing that they cannot enter the Standing Committee, want to get a deputy district head or the top leader of an important department. As long as the people who are barely qualified are all in a big mind, thinking about which leader to give gifts, how much to give, and so on, all of which are very nerve-wracking. But no matter how nerve-wracking it is, you have to fight for it. The opportunity is so rare that all of a sudden, there are countless more positions at the deputy department, division level and deputy department level. In the past, it was unimaginable. After all, the location in the province and the city is limited, and there are too many people, and you can't grab one if you break your head. It's good now, there will be one more out of thin air, the establishment of the district, such a big cake, of course, you have to grab a head and break the bloodshed!

Moreover, after the establishment of Xiama District, there is not only the policy tilt of Yan City, but also the financial support of the province. Basically, as long as he entered the Standing Committee of the Xia Ma District. It's equivalent to picking up a heavy political achievement. It's a pie-in-the-sky thing. As long as you can get in, you can get it.

In the face of interests, everyone has a share. You have to grab it, if you don't grab it, you can't grab it. But if you don't grab it, you'll never have a chance.

As a result, all the officials at the corresponding level who were related to Yan City and even the entire Yan Province had all kinds of restless thoughts. Everyone knows that Yan City's decision to discuss personnel after the Spring Festival is undoubtedly a clever move, that is, to set aside time for everyone to be active during the Spring Festival. Some people even maliciously guessed, well, this Spring Festival, many people are very full and rich, and they will receive hand cramps when receiving gifts.

Unlike the idea of many officials doing everything possible to prepare gifts, Xia Xiang, as the initiator, was not busy at all, after the Qin Festival holiday. He just called Chen Feng and Hu Zengzhou. As well as other people familiar with the municipal party committee, they first paid New Year's greetings, and then talked about some light topics, but did not mention the important personnel issues in the Xiama District.

Because Xia wanted to know that from the moment he began to promote the establishment of the Xia Ma District, he had enough weight in the eyes of Chen Feng and Hu Zengzhou, and at the same time. also hung a hook in Ye Shisheng's mind. He also understands the personalities of Chen Feng and Hu Zengzhou. He is not a particularly money-greedy official, but he is very principled. Know what to do and what not to do. And at their current level, fame and future are more important than accumulating wealth.

Not to mention Ye Shisheng, although he is the secretary of the provincial party committee, the personnel issue in Xiama District is within the authority of the municipal party committee, and he will not directly extend his hand to Yan City, which can easily arouse Chen Feng's disgust, and in the end, a municipal district at the deputy department level is not worth his trouble. Xia Xiang also knew that in order to avoid some unnecessary favors, Ye Shisheng had decided to go to the capital for the New Year.

As for other things, Xia Xiang didn't have to worry about it, he should have made the call. It's time to send a heart, and he plans to spend a good year in peace, because he knows that when the New Year is over next year, there will be an extra population in the family, and it will definitely be very noisy.

It's a pity that things didn't go as Xia Xiang wanted, first of all, in order to focus on protecting Cao Shuji, his parents proposed not to let them go back to Shan City, and his parents came to Yan City for the New Year. In fact, Xia wants to understand that it is the New Year. In fact, I still came to visit Cao Shuhui. To be more practical, it is the parents who beg their grandchildren to see their future grandchildren or granddaughters. The order of his parents had to be obeyed, and Xia Xiang had to accept it. The notch shook the book and dried the umbrella

Secondly, Cao Yongguo, who had only been said to stay at home for two days, lost his wife, Dan Huang reprimanded, "I led Cao Shuhui to be pregnant, Xia Xiang and Cao Shuhui originally discussed not to tell Cao Yongguo and his wife first, and planned to talk about it after the year, so as to save everyone from being busy, but the little girl was still heard by Wang Yufen when she was talking to Wang Yufen, and they also decided to go back to Shan City for one day, and then stay at home in Yan City for three days.

Yes, Xia Xiang thought sadly, this year's Spring Festival will definitely not stop. He also originally planned to fly to Hainan with the little girl, revisit the old place, and then find a place to stay quietly for a few days. Of course, in his wishful thinking, he still has to stay in the capital for two days and get together with his son, which is a pity. The extraneous complications of his parents on both sides made all his plans go down the drain.

In life, filial piety to parents is the first priority. The so-called filial piety is obedience, Xia Xiang accepted the arrangement of his parents and began to prepare for the purchase of New Year's goods. He was too lazy to procure things, and he didn't want Cao Shuhui to work, so he instructed Cao Shujun to buy them. Cao Shujun got the guarantee of Xia Xiang's pocket money and went to work with his girlfriend Meng Shuiyao.

Cao Shuhui was very dissatisfied with Xia Xiang's approach, because Xia Xiang gave Cao Shujun Dan Yuan as soon as he stretched out his hand. And the things she confessed to buy were at most four yuan for each other, which means that Cao Shujun only took half a day to earn the difference of 2 yuan. The little girl blamed Xia for being too accustomed to Cao Shujun.

Xia Xiang understood Cao Shujun's current predicament very well. said: "Shujun is now the time to fall in love, although he can't get used to his lavish spending, but he also plays him with a little money, and a man has the confidence to be rich." As he spoke, he thought of Meng Shuiyao, who was lively and smiling, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "How many girlfriends is Meng Xiaoyao Shujun?" I think the little girl is very good, careful, lively, and knowledgeable, much better than the few he used to find. In the past, his vision was really poor, and the girlfriends he was looking for took a fancy to his identity as the son of the secretary of the municipal party committee, and they all wanted to sit back and enjoy his success. ”

"Knowing people, knowing faces, but not knowing hearts, Meng Shui Yao is really as good as you say? I don't think so" The girl didn't agree with Xia Xiang's opinion very much, "I think she is too careful, and you also know that the more careful the girl, the more thoughtful she is, and Shujun has no scheming." Don't fall into her gentle trap

"Well, I need to remind him not to let him follow in my footsteps." Xia Xiang said seriously.

"Okay, you, you mean I seduced you in the first place? Do you have what it takes to try again? The little girl said to Xia Xiang with disgust.

Xia Xiang waved his hand calmly: "Don't say good things twice!" ”

"You" see that I don't clean you up" The little girl was about to fight, and Xia Xiang hurriedly took out the cushion to resist. "Knock knock." I heard a knock at the door.

It's already the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, who will it be? Xia Xiang went to open the door, the door opened, and there were two or three big men standing at the door, all of whom had grim faces. As soon as he saw Xia Xiang, he asked, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Xia Xiang?" ”

Xia Xiang was stunned, who is so imposing? The speech is hard and suppressed, and the attitude is very blunt. Although there is some displeasure. He still nodded and said, "I am, may I ask what you are doing?" ”

When several people heard this, they immediately changed their expressions, and everyone smiled with a smile on their faces, nodded and said, "Hello Mr. Xia Xiang, we are entrusted by someone to send you New Year's goods." ”

As if playing a trick, a few people turned around and took out a few boxes from behind them, and without saying a word, they were sent to the door.

Xia Xiang hadn't asked what was going on. A few people had already put down their things very neatly. One was left and the card was gone. Xia Xiang looked helpless, this gift was terrifying at the beginning and amazing at the end, who was so creative?

There are a few words written on the card: "A little New Year's goods are not a tribute" old thief. ”

Feng Xuguang's nickname is Lao Wu!

Xia Xiang laughed dumbly, how could Feng Xuguang still engage in such a surprise attack, and he also came up with the idea of forcibly giving gifts and leaving quickly, he really has him. With a smile, Xia Xiang made a call to Feng Xuguang and scolded a few words with a smile.

What makes Xia Xiang feel most gratified is that although his relationship with Ma Wanzheng is still lukewarm. But the friendship with Feng Xuguang was not affected at all.

After taking stock of the New Year's goods sent by Feng Xuguang, there should be some and there should not be, and some hurriedly called Cao Shujun, asking him not to buy anything anymore, otherwise it will be wasted if he can't finish eating.

Xia Xiang's phone call was exactly what Cao Shujun meant. He was disrespectful and laughed at all the Dan Aoyuan. Xia Xiang didn't say much, as a brother-in-law, he really didn't care enough about Cao Shujun, and he rarely gave him pocket money, so he used it as the New Year's money given to him during the New Year.

What Xia Xiang didn't expect was that the New Year's goods sent by Feng Xuguang seemed to have made a good start, and after a few words with Cao Shuhui, people began to come to the door in an endless stream to give gifts.

The first is Zhong Yiping. Because of Xia Xiang's strong recommendation, Zhong Yiping went to Anxian County to serve as a member of the Standing Committee and secretary of the township party committee, which can be said to have opened the door to a real career, and he remembered Xia Xiang's gratitude and did not dare to forget it. As soon as the holiday was over, I gave Xia Xiang a New Year's greeting and a gift.

Zhong Yiping's gift was two bottles of good wine, a good cigarette. And 20,000 yuan in cash. Xia Xiang saw his cramped look and said with a smile: "If you want to give me money in the future, don't enter my house." I'll help you down. It's about feeling that you are a person who can do practical things. As long as you work hard and don't think about anything in return, I will be happy in my eyes. ”

Zhong Yiping embarrassedly took the money back. Embarrassed, he said: "I can't think of how to express my gratitude, and I'm not short of money." It's not that the money-grubbing people will watch my actions one by one...

sent Zhong Yiping away, Li Hongjiang, Sun Xianwei, and Xiao Wu appeared together.

The three of them are much more familiar with Xia Xiang. There are also a lot of casual ones, and they all bring some daily gifts. Li Hongjiang and Sun Xianwei also had valuable gifts. In the name of saying that he wanted to give it to his future nephew, Xia wanted to refuse, but it was not good for the two of them to refuse too bluntly, so they had to accept it reluctantly. Fortunately, it is not a particularly expensive gift, nor is it a spoilt for friendship.

Sun Xianwei was happy when he saw that Xia wanted to accept the gift: "If you accept me, my heart will be steady, and I know that the next step is to make good profits for Jiangshan real estate." And, of course, my Cheonan property. ”

Li Hongjiang also said: "Leaders, don't forget about me, it's just the New Year, and when I see the big leaders, I'll talk about it, and I'm not short in the second year." Qualifications are enough, hehe.

It turned out that Li Hongjiang was not worried about him becoming the general manager of Erjian, so Xia Xiang smiled: "Don't worry, many things have to come naturally, so it is not abrupt." I'll take the time to say hello to Governor Song

Song Chaodu was in charge of the Provincial Construction Committee.

Li Hongjiang immediately smiled: "I know." I know, it's not that I'm afraid that the leader is usually busy, but it's easy to forget this little thing when I turn my head. ”

Li Hongjiang is no longer as casual with Xia Xiang as before, and he is affectionate with one leader after another.

"Outsiders are outsiders, my own people are my own people, I will forget about your affairs, I can't run Xia Xiang, first, I don't like to stand up, and second, even if the official position is high, I also need to be in my own cronies and groups, in front of my own people, there is no need to talk and hide three points, otherwise it will be too tiring to be a man.

In the end, Li Hongjiang and Sun Xianwei left satisfied. Looking at the time, it was already morning. After ordering, it didn't stop at noon, and the little girl smiled and thought: "How old are you, the more official you are, the more official you are, I don't know you anymore." ”

Xia Xiang grabbed her by the waist, put his hand on her soft lower abdomen, and said, "You don't know it, just know the people inside." ”

The two of them frolicked on the Internet, and they heard someone knocking on the door again, Xia Xiang was helpless, and said while getting up: "Next year's New Year, as soon as we have a holiday, we will go on a trip to see who will come to give gifts."

As soon as I opened the door, I was stunned, and there was a big hairy bear standing at the door!

With plush pants, plush tops, and plush shoes, it's almost like holding a stuffed bear toy, Song Yifan's dress can be called a stuffed bear. But if Xia really wants to evaluate, Song Yifan's furry bear looks very cute.

As soon as Song Yifan saw Xia Xiang, he couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Xia, do you want to say that my clothes look good?" Dad is too ugly, I think there is a generation gap between me and him, and you stand on an objective and fair standpoint. Give me my opinion. ”

Song Chaodu stood behind Song Yifan, smiling and silent.

Xia Xiang looked Song Yifan up and down a few times, and said critically: "It's okay, creative, but it's too different, for many people, it needs a process of acceptance."

Song Yifan was happy, jumped into the door, and shouted at Cao Shuhui: "Sister-in-law, do you also look like a hairy bear?" ”

Song Yifan asked Cao Shuhui correctly. Because Cao Shuhui's favorite cartoon animal is the hairy bear, she is also like a child, holding Song Yifan's hand and laughing.

Xia Xiang ignored the commotion between the two of them, invited Song Chaodu to the study, and first talked about the dismount area for a while. Song Chaodu also knew Xia Xiang's true thoughts, and also agreed with him to go to the dismount area: "It's time to go down and do some practical things, and the work of the leading group will not be too creative in the future." You have overcome all the difficulties in the early stage. The dismount area is a good opportunity, if you make good use of it, the secretary will do it, and there will be no problem with the promotion of the main hall at the age of ugly. After a slight pause, he said with emotion, Xiao Xia, your steps are very solid, much stronger than I was back then. When I was younger, I had two exceptional promotions, but after I got to the vice province. It was silent for more than two years. One gain and one loss. It's also a harvest for me."

Xia Xiang also knows a little about Song Chaodu's resume, and knows that he has been promoted from the department level to the right place, in the environment at that time. There are indeed many examples of exceptional promotions in China, and they are not too abrupt.

Song Chaodu smiled and said: "Exceptional promotion is sometimes not a good thing, the road is still good step by step." After you are promoted to the deputy hall, you must be tempered for a few years in the position of the department. Don't rush to get promoted to vice-provincial. The level of the department is critical. It is necessary to cultivate a view of the overall situation, improve one's own theoretical level, and only when we reach the sub-provincial level will we have a stable foundation. ”

Xia wanted to know that Song Chaodu had taught him the way to be an official, so he kept them in his heart.

As he spoke, Song Chaodu changed the topic and suddenly said a piece of news that shocked Xia Xiang: "The situation in the province may change a little after the year." Duantai will be transferred away and serve as governor of Western Province! ”

Governor of the Western Province? Xia Xiang was taken aback.

Xia Xiang was not surprised by Xing Duantai's promotion. But the position of governor of the western province is not easy to do. There is no accountability now, after next year. Accountability will be slowly introduced at home. The western province is a large butterfly-producing province, and in the following years, mining disasters continued. Numerous mayors have resigned one after another. After a large-scale mining disaster that shocked the whole country, the then governor of Western Province also had to resign, becoming one of the highest officials in the country's history to resign.
