"The world is full of flowers in April, and the peach blossoms begin to bloom here. It seems that there are benefits in the mountains, and watermelons are off the market in other places, and we have just started to eat them. Yuan Jinpeng said, holding a piece of red soil and black watermelon in his hand.

Bao Kaixuan said: "Secretary Yuan, Fengling is a good place. The mountains and water are good, especially in summer, no fans, no air conditioners, no mosquitoes. Sleep at night and cover with blankets, which is better than Lushan. ”

After a few months, especially after the arrival of summer, Yuan Jinpeng began to like this remote and poor mountain. The verdant mountains, the fresh air, the tranquil mountain villages, the soothing rhythms, and the delicate village girls are like the landscape paintings of the painters. The collapse of the Hongqiao Bridge in Qijiang, Sichuan, the accidental bombing of the embassy by NATO, and the scourge of living beings by cults cannot affect the tranquility and tranquility of Fengling Township. When I was in Xiangyang Town, I was busy with spring ploughing and spring sowing, summer harvest and autumn harvest, planting tobacco and raising silkworms, and ushering in the delivery. At present, the main focus is on closing mountains for afforestation and indiscriminate deforestation, and there are not many things to do, and there is not much pressure. Liu Shen said, "Do more, make more mistakes; More tubes, more trouble; Say a lot, right and wrong. "Before, I didn't feel anything special about this sentence. Now, he feels it firsthand. Living in the mountain township, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, not seeking merit but seeking no fault, and he is comfortable and comfortable, and his ears are pure. Of course, there are pros and cons. In the eyes of others, not to mention that his career is blocked, at least the scenery is no longer there. What's more, Fengling Township is a small township in the final analysis, with a population of only 10,000, and its GDP and fiscal revenue are less than one-third of Xiangyang Township. Not to mention the county-level units, even if you are walking on the street of the county seat, no one will be straight on the waist of your secretary.

In the dead of night, Yuan Jinpeng often fell into deep thought, he didn't know whether the path he was taking was right, and he didn't even dare to conclude whether what he was doing now was right. He slowly felt that he was a person who was at ease with what came his way. When he was in Xiangyang Town, the town cadres went to the door to collect taxes and fees such as overall planning, retention, and so on, and they could collect 300,000 or 400,000 yuan for any raid. When he arrived in the impoverished Fengling Township, he carried out two major operations in a row, and the cash collected was less than 100,000 yuan. The effect is not ideal, but the effort is unprecedented. There was a pig that was tied up during last year's assault and was ready to pay for the pool. As a result, the head of the household borrowed money at the last minute and handed it over, and the pig was able to drive it back into the pen. This year, the pig was pressed down and tied up again, and the head of the household could not pay the money, so he had to let the township cadres kidnap and pay the arrears. There are a few families who have no choice but to take out ancestral gold and silver jewelry to settle the account. The woman's tears rippled, and the scene was not depressing. Last time, after returning from Hongshiling Village, he talked to Wang Lide about whether he wanted to improve his working methods. Wang Lide said: "Who wants to be vicious, but the wind and drizzle can't solve the problem." If the money cannot be collected, the salaries of teachers and cadres cannot be paid, and the township government will be paralyzed. He finally realized that the current poor financial situation forced you to have no third way, and it was almost impossible for you to reach out to the poor people to ask for money on your side, and to get the heartfelt support of the people on the other side. Zhou Dongsheng's words are vain, and he can do it now. In desperation, he and Wang Lide asked the county government for help, borrowed 100,000 yuan from the Finance Bureau, paid two months' salaries to teachers and cadres, and repaid some construction funds, car repair costs, and entertainment expenses, and reluctantly closed the store to survive the New Year. At that time, Xu Huaqiang, executive deputy county magistrate, presided over the work of the county government, and when he heard Wang Lide say that he wanted to borrow 150,000 yuan, his face immediately sank: "It's like you, how can the county government close its door?" They swallowed their anger and said all the good things, and Xu Huaqiang reluctantly agreed to borrow 100,000 yuan. Later, they heard that there were at least seven or eight townships that borrowed money for the New Year, and the largest borrowed 350,000 yuan.

After eating the watermelon, Yuan Jinpeng got up from the bamboo recliner and said to Bao Kaixuan: "Lao Bao, you go and see how the canteen is prepared, tell Lao Liang, no matter what, you have to get wild soft-shelled turtle and stone chicken." ”

Wang Lide added: "No matter what the price, you must get it, and it will be rare for Secretary Liu to come in the future." ”

"The two leaders rest assured, we don't have anything else in Fengling, that is, there are many wild soft-shelled turtles and stone chickens, and we can get them in the colder season. I'll take a look. After Bao Kaixuan finished speaking, he went out to the cafeteria.

Yuan Jinpeng said: "Lao Wang, let's give a few toasts to Secretary Jin Zhong at noon, there are not many such real leaders." ”

Wang Lide nodded: "That's, that's." I want to congratulate you, being the director of the Family Planning Commission is also promoted. ”

"How can I say it, Secretary Jin Zhong is aiming for the post of county magistrate, and now he is going to the regional family planning commission, which can be regarded as the second best thing. Xu Huaqiang's arrangement is not ideal, the material bureau is about to go out of business, and it is not cost-effective to correct the county level. Yuan Jinpeng said.

Wang Lide approached Yuan Jinpeng and whispered: "It's really strange that the prefectural party committee put one person down to be the county magistrate and transferred two generals, but the positions of deputy secretary and executive deputy county magistrate are vacant. ”

Although there were only two of them in the room, Yuan Jinpeng still lowered his voice: "It seems that this Chen Wensheng is not small. Secretary Zhang Shouzhuo used to be the director of the Political Research Office of the Provincial Party Committee, and County Magistrate Chen was the director of the Political Research Office of the Prefectural Party Committee. ”

Wang Lide said: "I heard that he graduated from Qingchuan Normal School and is your alumnus." ”

Yuan Jinpeng looked indifferent: "It seems that County Magistrate Chen used to be the deputy director of the regional education bureau, and later served as the deputy director of the prefectural party committee office and the director of the political research office." I heard that he and Liang Kexiong are classmates. ”

As they spoke, they heard a car driving into the township government compound, and they hurriedly got up to welcome them out. Sure enough, it was Liu Jinzhong, and the entourage was only the secretary Wang Caide and the driver. Wang Caide was transferred to the office of the county party committee at the end of last year as a deputy section-level secretary.

After the greetings, Liu Jinzhong came directly to Yuan Jinpeng's office. Wang Caide knew that the leader was looking for Yuan Jinpeng for something, so he pulled Wang Lide to chat with him. Lei Xiaoming was found to have stomach cancer, and there was a lot of uproar. Wang Lide's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked very carefully.

Liu Jinzhong motioned to Yuan Jinpeng to close the door: "Jinpeng, I'm going to work in Qingchuan in the next two days." I'm here today, not just for a meal, but also to talk to you. I've been hanging in Xiangyang Town for a few years, and I hope you take every step well. ”

Yuan Jinpeng tensed his nerves: "Secretary Liu, is there something wrong with me, you can criticize it." You are my old leader, you are about to become high, and you still remember me, I am very grateful! ”

Liu Jinzhong said: "Jin Peng, you are tall, young, and have a great future. But it's a lack of experience. Originally, when the township was changed last year, you stood still, and when it came to small adjustments, you would think about your affairs. However, you can't hold your breath, and you don't know who to find to force Secretary Zhou to transfer his position. As a result, the secretary became the secretary, but I am afraid that Secretary Zhou thinks that you are a drill camper, and he hates you even more in his bones. If you had calmed down at the time, wouldn't Lei Xiaoming have a chance when he was sick this time? You're in too much of a hurry. To be a leader, you must be able to endure loneliness and calm down, be able to be angry and wronged, and not care about the gains and losses of one time and one place. In politics, it is taboo to be sharp. ”

Yuan Jinpeng nodded: "Yes, Sun Wukong can't escape from the palm of the Buddha, I was too anxious last time." ”

Liu Jinzhong picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea: "Of course, you must also be guarded." You have been in Fengling for almost a year, and Secretary Zhou has only accompanied Director Li of the Provincial Ethnic and Religious Bureau once, but Secretary Zhou knows everything you have done and said. Do you know the situation? Why is this happening, have you thought about it? ”

Yuan Jinpeng was taken aback, opened his mouth and couldn't speak, his brain turned quickly: Is it Wang Lide?

"There's another thing that I wonder. In the past, you and Tan Yangchun walked around during the Chinese New Year, nothing more than to buy some cigarettes, alcohol, and local products. Giving red envelopes in the past two years is also meaningful. But this year, you and Wang Lide will come once and again, each expressing their own opinions. It's strange, his red envelopes are twice as many as yours, and I'm not giving more than anyone. But going to other leaders will not be good for you. What's going on, is it really out of private pocket? You won't be teased by people, the finance is signed by the head of the township. Liu Jinzhong said.

Yuan Jinpeng turned over the five-flavor bottle in his heart: "I didn't expect Wang to be such a person, and he was tricked." ”

The gentleman is virtuous, and the villain is profitable. But his name is still called Lide. The name of a villain is Lide, how ridiculous!

Liu Jinzhong sneered: "Hmph, talent! You may not be able to control such talents, and you can't control them and send them out. Your Fengling Township will soon be changed to She Nationality Township, and there will be a lot of special support funds in the future. Only when there is a united and combat-effective team can we do something for the people. ”

Yuan Jinpeng was stunned: "Recommend him to be the secretary?" Such a good township, wouldn't it help the villain to get his will?! ”

Liu Jinzhong said: "This time Lei Xiaoming has such a serious illness, it is not possible to find someone to replace him. If you Fengling is changed into an ethnic township, you must choose another She cadre to be the head of the township. Secretary Zhou wants Wang Lide to replace Lei Xiaoming, the result is the same whether you push it or not, and the recommendation is also a favor. What's more, it's a win-win. He's gone, it's good for you to do your job, you don't want a KGB by your side. In the past, Secretary Zhou treated him in general. This year, the impression is much better. Say, humility makes people progress. I think a complaint makes a person progress! ”

Seeing Yuan Jinpeng's stunned look, Liu Jinzhong patted him on the shoulder: "Also, working in the mountains, there are few things, but you can't be too idle." People can't be too idle and become unmotivated. Especially don't make peachy news, you and that Zhang Mujian, someone is talking about the county party committee, what golden boy and girl? You don't get too deep, take advantage of it. It's not a big deal now, but once the impact is big, it's troublesome, don't fall on it! ”

Yuan Jinpeng was just about to plead, when Bao Kaixuan knocked on the door and came in, saying that the meal was ready.

When Liu Jinzhong and Yuan Jinpeng arrived at the cafeteria, Wang Lide and the others were already sitting in the box, and Zhang Mujin was wearing a pink dress, which was very eye-catching. There are two women in the team, Zhang Mujin is beautiful and drinks a lot, so she naturally often accompanies her. But today, Yuan Jinpeng felt that Zhang Muhibiscus was not eye-catching, but dazzling, and regretted that he should not have arranged for her to accompany him. After thinking about it, I felt that this was better, at least it showed that I was not weak-minded.

The first glass of wine, Yuan Jinpeng took everyone to congratulate Liu Jinzhong. The transfer of the deputy secretary of the county party committee to the director of the regional family planning commission is also a happy event. was promoted, and then entered the local direct organ, which is considered a city person.

Wang Lide said: "Secretary Liu, some time ago, you were summoned to the regional discipline inspection commission to be the deputy secretary. As a result, go to the Family Planning Commission, it is better, and it is alone. ”

"What's good or not? The organization lets you go wherever you go. In the final analysis, a leading cadre is just a piece of paper, and wherever he goes, there is nothing more than a piece of paper. Besides, the Family Planning Commission is a particularly stressful unit. Liu Jinzhong said.

Zhang Mujin stood up and saluted Liu Jinzhong with a glass of wine: "Secretary Liu, I think that if you go to the Commission for Discipline Inspection, you may become the frightened black face of the corrupt officials, and become our Jiang Ruifeng of Qingchuan." ”

Liu Jinzhong waved his hand: "Township Chief Zhang, you have seen too much "Black Face", lift me up." I'm a layman, how can I have such ability? Jiang Ruifeng is upright, with a clean breeze on his sleeves, and he is jealous and hateful. Such Bao Gong and Hai Rui are rare. Of course, he was not treated badly in the organization, he was directly promoted from the deputy section to the deputy department, and then directly promoted from the deputy department to the deputy department, and now he is a member of the Standing Committee of the Shijiazhuang Municipal Party Committee and secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission. ”

Everyone nodded again and again, saying that such a leader should be promoted beyond the ranks.

Wang Lide said: "Secretary Liu, with you in the regional family planning commission, the county will definitely be able to take off this hat, and our township will have a better life." ”

The prefectural party committee initially considered Liu Jinzhong as the deputy secretary of the regional discipline inspection commission, but Zhou Qiushui insisted on looking for leaders one by one to fight for a "chicken head" position for him. He knew in his heart that for Zhou Qiushui, this was a clever move to kill two birds with one stone. I won a good position for you Liu Jinzhong, and I'm afraid that you won't "take off your hat" for Ping'an County? Wang Lide said that it seemed that he had underestimated him before.

Liu Jinzhong said: "You still do your job honestly, and if you don't do a good job, you will still be put up with a sign and a hat." There is so much pressure in that place, I can't help smuggling, everyone should understand this. ”

Yuan Jinpeng looked at Liu Jinzhong's stern expression, felt a little funny, and changed the topic and said: "Secretary Liu, Zhan Shijie is still the director of the office of the regional family planning commission, right?" ”

Liu Jinzhong was a little surprised: "How do you know James Shijie?" Last year, he was promoted to the head of the discipline inspection team. ”

Yuan Jinpeng said: "I have a classmate named Li Zhongfu, who works in the office of the administrative department, and introduced me to James Shijie. I feel that this person is very good at being a person, and he was really promoted. ”

"Oh, Li Zhongfu is your classmate, and the material is well written. I just mentioned the head of the agriculture section of the administrative office, and the Family Planning Commission is in charge of the forestry commissioner. Liu Jinzhong said.

The chat lasted for nearly two hours, and everyone's interest was still very high, Liu Jinzhong raised his wrist to look at his watch: "There is no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, almost." Urge Yuan Jinpeng to raise a glass to make a summary, and the meal is over.

Seeing Liu Jinzhong away, Yuan Jinpeng was a little dizzy and asked Bao Kaixuan: "Red mushrooms and fungus are in the car?" ”

Bao Kaixuan said: "Before eating, let Secretary Liu's driver put it in the car. ”
