As soon as he went to work the next day, Xia Xiang asked Chang Shuxin to arrange for Li Caiyuan to take office on the same day and serve as his secretary.

Chang Shuxin said in embarrassment: "Li Caiyuan is sick and hasn't ...... to work yet" "Call him to go to work immediately, and if he doesn't go to work again, he will be dismissed from public office." ”

Xia Xiang slapped the table angrily, "Okay, ask him to be the secretary, he also took the shelf, am I still the leader of the municipal party committee?" Chang Shuxin was taken aback, Mayor Xia has been in office for more than a week, and he has never been angry, and when he gets angry today, it is also quite scary, a leader is a leader, and he has a lot of official authority.

Chang Shuxin hurriedly agreed to do it, and came back after a while: "It's strange, Li Caiyuan just went to work today, and he will come over to report in a while, but he still needs to hand over the formalities from the Organization Department, as if the director in charge is not there." ”

"The formalities will be made up later, where is there such a trouble for the transfer within the municipal party committee?" Xia Xiang waved his hand impatiently, "By the way, Lao Chang, you also designate a deputy secretary general to correspond to my work, and I always look for you when there is something, and you can't be busy alone." ”

Chang Shuxin is the secretary general of the government office, mainly corresponding to Gu Xiangguo's work, Xia Xiang just came, and it was okay to command him a few times, but there were many times, he had no opinion, and Gu Xiangguo would have an opinion.

Chang Shuxin immediately complied, it was not that he didn't want to serve Xia Xiang, but Gu Xiangguo had always been careful, if he knew that he served Xia Xiang every day, he would definitely have bad thoughts.

In fact, he has already found the deputy secretary general who corresponds to Xia Xiang - Tang Hualai.

Tang Hualai ranked third in the government office, corresponding to Xia Xiang is a little unruly, but Shi Zhangyu, the second-ranked deputy secretary general, corresponds to Deputy Mayor Tu Yun, even when Regen was the executive deputy mayor, so Chang Shuxin also carefully explained to Xia Xiang.

Xia Xiang was noncommittal, and only said, "I know." ”

Chang Shuxin came out of Xia Xiang's office, stood in the corridor for a moment, and then walked to the right.

On the right, is Gu Xiangguo's office.

Chang Shuxin knocked on the door and went in, and saw that Tu Yun happened to be fine, so he reported Xia Xiang's situation to the two: "Mayor Gu, Mayor Tu, Mayor Xia has to use Li Caiyuan as secretary, he is the leader, I can't dissuade him." ”

"Didn't Li Caiyuan take sick leave, why did he come back to work again?" Tu Yun looked surprised.

"I don't know, he came by himself early this morning."

Chang Shuxin glanced at Gu Xiangguo cautiously, and when he saw that Gu Xiangguo didn't say anything, he said, "Do you want to hint at him again and let him take sick leave to rest for a while?" "No need."

Gu Xiangguo waved his hand, with a serious face, "Since Mayor Xia has to reuse Li Caiyuan, we must also make appropriate concessions, Mayor Xia has a deep relationship with the provincial party committee, and it is not appropriate for a secretary to be unpleasant."

We don't have to come forward to knock Li Caiyuan on the matter, and some people are more anxious than us. ”

"It's still a wise leader."

Chang Shuxin lost no time in slapping a little sycophant, and said more, "I think Mayor Xia is too young, and he has only been angry for a few days, just because of Li Caiyuan's matter, and he is still a little breathless."

Mayor Gu, in Li Caiyuan's matter, is it a little too guarded against him, he ......" Gu Xiangguo waved his hand and stopped Chang Shuxin from going on, "For Xia Xiang, it is still necessary to focus on prevention and overhead, his origin is unknown, and his background is complicated, if he stays well in Lang City, it is okay, if he wants to meddle in things everywhere, he can't let him have a good life."

Also, is it reliable for Tang Hua to correspond to Xia Xiang's work? "Hualai has always been the corresponding deputy secretary general of Mayor Rui, and he has been in the municipal party committee for a long time, and he knows what to do and what not to do, and what to say and what not to say."

Chang Shuxin hurriedly replied, his eyes fell on Tu Yun inadvertently, but he thought in his heart, Mayor Tu is getting younger and younger, he is 40 years old, and his figure is still so good, and he doesn't know how to maintain it? Her husband is often away on business, and it is strange that she seems to be nourished every day.

…… Xia Xiang sat on the chair and looked at Tang Hualai who was sitting at the bottom, with a smile on his face.

Tang Hualai is 38 years old, very thin, wearing a gray shirt, it seems that the clothes are empty, he doesn't pay much attention to his personal image, his beard is not shaved clean, because he smokes too much, his teeth are very yellow, and the two fingers of his right hand are all black, which is estimated to have soaked into the skin.

Next to him, sat Li Caiyuan.

Tang Hualai had expected to arrange his work to correspond to Xia Xiang, because in the government office, only he did not have the deputy mayor who corresponded to the service, and he used to be the mayor of the corresponding service, and then he corresponded to Mayor Xia, which was logical.

However, in his eyes, compared with the highly respected Mayor Rui, Mayor Xia is really young, and his youth is a little unacceptable.

He is 38 years old this year, nearly 10 years older than Mayor Xia, who is already at the deputy department level and a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, while he is only a deputy department, and he is just an ordinary secretary general of the government office.

However, when he saw Li Caiyuan, who was sitting next to him, his psychology was a little more balanced.

But then he thought of Mayor Xia's situation in the municipal party committee, it was very embarrassing to go up or down, and even when no one was available and had to use Li Caiyuan as secretary, he was inevitably depressed.

Although Xia Xiang didn't know what Tang Hualai was thinking, he could see one or two from his expression, and he didn't say it clearly, but just knocked on the table lightly: "In the future, Caiyuan and Hualai must cooperate well and do a good job in the work in hand."

I won't say anything, I also understand some of the situation in Lang City, but it's not deep enough, if you have anything to add, just say it face to face, people who have worked with me know who I am, and I will never treat everyone around me badly! Xia Xiang's words are a promise and a temptation.

Tang Hua glanced at Li Caiyuan, and when he saw that Li Caiyuan didn't move, he hesitated for a moment and said: "Mayor Xia, Lang City is a young city, with vitality and potential, your coming to Lang City as the executive deputy mayor is a major opportunity and challenge, I believe that with your ability and ......" Xia Xiang interrupted Tang Hualai's cliché: "Hualai, you used to have more contact with Mayor Rui, tell me your views on Mayor Rui." ”

Tang Hualai was stunned, Mayor Xia didn't ask the current mayor and deputy mayor, but asked the outgoing Mayor Rui, what was his intention? But no matter what the leader's intentions were, since the leader asked a question, he had to answer, so he thought about it and said cautiously: "Mayor Rui has a rigorous work, a solid style, and is amiable, and everyone in the Lang City Party Committee respects him very much...... "Hehe, okay, okay." ”

Xia Xiang smiled very casually, although he didn't know that what Tang Hua said was all nonsense, but he had already secretly expressed his dissatisfaction by interrupting him twice, "Hualai, I am a few years younger than you, but you may not know that my mental age is older than yours." ”

Xia Xiang's words were not pretending to be amazing, the ages of his two lives combined, he was indeed a few years older than Tang Hualai.

Tang Hualai had always felt that Xia Xiang was young, and he had the shortcomings of being young when he was young, that is, he was less experienced and liked to listen to beautiful words, and his judgment was poor, but after a few words, although Xia Xiang did not deliberately show his majesty, let alone play with a serious official face, his light-hearted conversation style and unexpected way of changing the topic still brought him inexplicable majesty.

Especially when he saw Xia Xiang's young but indifferent smiling face, his heart suddenly sank, and a thought subconsciously came to him: I'm afraid Mayor Xia is not easy to fool, he became the executive deputy mayor at such a young age, and he is not a second-generation official, although he also has a father-in-law of the vice governor, but I have never heard of his father-in-law playing an important role in his promotion process, and he must also have outstanding personal ability.

After thinking about it again, even if Xia Xiang has a backstage in the provincial party committee, what can he do? The problem is that many people in Lang City don't look at the face of the provincial party committee, and Lang City is not only politically strong to decide everything, Lang City also has an Oh Chen! The situation in Lang City...... Thinking of the current situation of Lang City, Tang Hualai was extremely pessimistic in his heart, he had to get by and forget it, no one could change the status quo of Lang City, Mayor Xia wanted to make a difference, but he could only run into a broken head, and finally ended up in embarrassment.

He decided to adopt the same work attitude as before, and the leader will do it when he tells him, and the leader will retreat if he doesn't say anything.

Tang Hualai made up his mind, anyway, he is a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, who he loves.

Unexpectedly, Xia Xiang asked a very direct question next, making him once again realize that he had underestimated Xia Xiang's political wisdom.

"What do you think about the bad impact of the problem of financial resources' life style?" Xia Xiang still asked with a smile, and it was still in a casual chatting tone.

Xia thought clearly, Li Caiyuan and Tang Hualai were the two closest to him at this stage, either trust or beware, with the current situation of Lang City, there is no first... choice, and Tang Hualai is still the deputy secretary general who has the closest contact with the former executive vice mayor, if he doesn't know a little bit of Regan's secret, it is impossible.

But Tang Hualai doesn't seem to be Regan's person, Xia wants to intuitively judge, Tang Hualai acts tactually, and he is unwilling to take responsibility for everything, with Oh Chen's style of acting and Regan's caution, even if Tang Hualai has a heart, he can only know a little bit of Regan's secret at most.

If you know, he will not say.

Tang Hualai felt bitter in his heart, and asked Li Caiyuan in front of Li Caiyuan about his pain, did Mayor Xia deliberately embarrass him, or did he embarrass Li Caiyuan? However, seeing Li Caiyuan's quiet appearance, he still understood a little, he sat in Mayor Xia's office for a long time, Li Caiyuan never said a word, and Mayor Xia only asked him questions, it should be that Li Caiyuan has already expressed his loyalty, and now Mayor Xia wants him to express his position.

Tang Hualai smiled awkwardly: "This thing...... This is a mistake that men will make, that is, the financial resources are not careful, and it is not handled well to make a big fuss, if you are careful, it is not a big deal. ”

Tang Hualai's answer was expected by Xia Xiang, Xia Xiang nodded, and tapped lightly on the table with one hand, just when Tang Hualai thought that Xia Xiang still had something to ask, Xia Xiang asked abruptly: "Okay, it's okay, Hualai will be busy with your affairs first...... By the way, you can arrange for me to go to the Municipal Taxation Bureau to inspect the work in the afternoon. ”

The biggest difference between the executive vice mayor and other vice mayors or the power of the executive vice mayor is not that when the mayor is away, he can replace the mayor to preside over the overall work of the municipal government, but that the executive vice mayor is in charge of finance and holds financial power in his hands.

Politics is also similar to business, and whoever is in charge of the money has the final say.

Tang Hualai agreed, turned to leave, hesitated when he walked to the door, but in the end he didn't stop and strode away.

Xia Xiang glanced at Tang Hualai's disappearing back, and his face was calm.

As soon as Tang Hualai left, Li Caiyuan stood up and bowed solemnly to Xia Xiang: "Thank you, leader, Le Xue has been admitted to the People's Hospital, and according to the doctor, there is still a possibility of cure." ”

Xia Xiang, as the executive deputy mayor, still has the power to make a phone call to arrange a patient to be hospitalized, even if the dean does not give face, he can also command the director of the health bureau, the executive deputy mayor is not an ordinary deputy mayor, he usually has to preside over the executive work of the government, even if it is not a mess in charge, he can also point fingers.

Xia Xiang nodded: "A little thing, don't take it to heart, just work hard in the future."

Also, you usually have to pay more attention to your own safety, since someone will frame you once, you are not afraid of a second time. ”

"Please rest assured, the leaders are dying now, and I have to fight them to the end."

"It is a reckless practice to fight to the death, the tricks between people, in the end, it is the wisdom and strategy of fighting, you are not a brainless person, listen to me, don't do stupid things in the future, follow my arrangement step by step."

Xia Xiang dug Li Caiyuan appropriately.

Li Caiyuan's life has undergone great changes, all because of his personality, and he has touched the interests of some people.

Xia Xiang now also understands Qiu Xufeng's intentions, and letting Li Caiyuan serve as his secretary by his side also provides Li Caiyuan with a protective umbrella to prevent someone from secretly poisoning Li Caiyuan again.

Fortunately, Li Caiyuan is also smart enough, although he was made disgraced by others, and his wife was almost crippled by someone, he managed to save his life and his son from being hurt by the wicked.

Although he looks a little down-and-out and a little decadent, in Xia Xiang's eyes, Li Caiyuan is a man who stands up to the sky, and he wants to help him to the end.

Li Caiyuan is a key to open the key door, and now the key is in his hands, but Xia Xiang is not completely clear about which lock can be opened.

At about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Xia Xiang, accompanied by Tang Hualai and Li Caiyuan, drove a total of two special cars into the Lang City Finance Bureau.

Director Ling Hubai personally led the members of the overall party group to welcome Xia Xiang's arrival downstairs.

The posture of Linghu Bai is not low, showing full sincerity, the executive deputy mayor is in charge of finance, and he has always kept an eye on the money bag, which is common sense and understandable.

The previous executive vice mayor Reagan took a lot of measures to suppress and win him over, and I don't know what Mayor Xia's attitude is towards him? Almost the entire Lang City knows that Linghu Bai is the God of Wealth in Lang City, and Linghu Bai only listens to the command of one person, that is, Ai Chengwen, the appropriation is not appropriated, and only the signature of Secretary Ai is recognized, and Gu Xiangguo's instructions are not very effective.

So when Ling Hubai saw the young Xia Xiang get out of the car, he took a big step forward, but when he saw Xia Xiang's young and easy-going smile, he couldn't help but take another half step, he was too young, so young that people couldn't afford to be respectful.

Ling Hubai shook his head secretly, and he didn't know where Mayor Xia had good luck and became the executive deputy mayor at such a young age.

But thinking about it again, maybe he offended someone and was thrown into Lang City, and I don't know what will happen! Xia Xiang stretched out his hand and shook hands with Linghu Bai: "Director Linghu, financial work is the top priority, so as soon as I took office, I came to the Finance Bureau to visit everyone, and I happened to get to know everyone, so as to save everyone from thinking that I don't walk around with everyone and don't want to get along with everyone." ”

Ling Hubai is 45 years old, with gray hair, not black, ordinary appearance, and a smile revealing a kind of kindness, but in the cordiality, there is a kind of arrogance.

Also, as the director of the Finance Bureau, how many directors of large and small bureaus bowed their heads to him, and even some deputy mayors had to say good things to him, so he naturally developed a character of no one in his eyes.

The main reason is that he not only has an irreversible relationship with Ai Chengwen, but he also has a tough backstage in all aspects.

Originally, last year, the city party committee wanted to transfer him to a certain county to serve as secretary of the county party committee, but he trusted him to do so, but in the end he did not go.

How can the secretary of the county party committee of a poor county have his current position? And he has been operating in Lang City for more than ten years, and he doesn't want to move the place, so he will retire in Lang City.

Lang City ...... It's a good place.

Xia Xiang's words were cordial and polite, and Ling Hu Chong held Xia Xiang's hand tightly: "I have prepared the relevant materials and am preparing to report to Mayor Xia to the Municipal Party Committee, but I didn't expect Mayor Xia to attach great importance to the work of the Finance Bureau, and it is an honor to come to the Finance Bureau for the first inspection."

On behalf of the party group of the bureau and all the staff of the overall situation, I warmly welcome the arrival of Mayor Xia. ”

After a brief welcome ceremony, Xia Xiang was welcomed into the conference room by Linghu Bai.

Regarding Ling Hubai's statement that he would report to him as soon as possible, Xia Xiang didn't believe it at all.

Linghubai and Ai Chengwen have a close relationship, and on the way here, Li Caiyuan has already explained the situation to Xia Xiang.

Although Tang Hualai did not interject, it had already been concluded from his expression that he also agreed with Li Caiyuan's statement.

Xia wanted to know that it would take a little time for Tang Hua to completely fall to him.

But it is almost impossible to get Linghu Bai to get closer to him and listen to his instructions.

If there is no possibility, we have to find another way, otherwise, an executive vice mayor who can't control the Finance Bureau and can't manage personnel, and then has a general relationship with the mayor, to be honest, may not be as good as an ordinary deputy mayor.

At least now Xia Xiang can already feel that in his Gu Xiangguo's mind, he is definitely not comparable to Tu Yun.

It is not even an exaggeration to say that he is not as good as Shao Ding.

It's better to be better, everyone has a distant relative, and there is also a first come, and there is another point, let others respect you, it is earned, it is won by strength, not by charity.

Although he sits in the position of executive vice mayor, if he wants to have a place in the city government team, he must first show real skills, at least do one convincing thing.

Coming to the Finance Bureau today, Xia Xiang wanted to see if he could open the first knife!
