"Pang Hua, don't get me wrong." Su Yan hurriedly said to Pang Hua, and kept glancing at Pang Hua.

"Am I mistaken? I just came back from abroad today, and I originally prepared a gift for you, planning to surprise you, call you, you said that you are not available at noon, you have to work overtime, let me look for you again at night, I almost believed you stupidly, if it wasn't for the whim to go to your station to see you first, I would really be a fool. Pang Hua was very angry, his anger surged, and his white face was covered with a layer of red because of anger.

Chen Xing only felt that goosebumps were about to rise, without him, because he heard the kind of voice that the man spoke, neither male nor female, like a rooster pinching his throat, looking at him as if he was talking hysterically, but he pinched an orchid finger on his hand, Chen Xing was a little cold for no reason, so that he was scolded for no reason and forgot about it.

"Miss Su, is this your boyfriend? It seems that you invited me to dinner at noon and didn't explain it clearly to your boyfriend. Chen Xing got up with a smile, he couldn't figure out what the situation was, and he didn't want to know what was going on, the farce between boyfriend and girlfriend in front of him, Chen Xing still didn't want to mix more, and the meal at noon was obviously not able to eat, Chen Xing simply got up and prepared to leave.

"Secretary Chen, I'm really sorry, I was going to apologize to you at noon, but I didn't expect this to happen again." Su Yan said helplessly, who in the end, he explained intentionally or unintentionally, "He is just my friend, if there is anything that offends Secretary Chen, I hope Secretary Chen Haihan." ”

"It's all right, young man." Chen Xing smiled, "I won't eat this meal, Miss Su, you don't have to apologize, I didn't pay attention when I walked, and there was something wrong." ”

After Chen Xing finished speaking, he waved his hand to Su Yan and left from the box.

Chen Xing left, and now it was Su Yan's turn to glared at Pang Hua angrily, "Pang Hua, are you happy, I specially invited Secretary Chen to have dinner and apologize, you are so unreasonable and make people angry, so you will be comfortable, right?" ”

Pang Hua also seemed to realize his own recklessness, listening to the conversation between Su Yan and Chen Xing, it was not what he imagined, and there was nothing unusual about the expressions of the two people, Pang Hua was a little stunned, the anger just now had already disappeared, thinking of Su Yan's name to Chen Xing just now, Pang Hua was stunned, "You just called him Secretary Chen?" Who is he? ”

"He is the new secretary of the municipal party committee Chen Xing, he just took office on the first day, the other party accidentally stepped on my shoes, I don't know his identity, and scolded him again, now I finally have a chance to apologize, a good meal, just like you ruined, don't you feel very happy?"

"The new secretary of the municipal party committee?" Pang Hua's eyebrows twitched, this identity really scared him a little, he went abroad for more than ten days, and the new secretaries in the city have taken office, Pang Hua really doesn't know at all, thinking of scolding the other party for being a bastard just now, Pang Hua doesn't know if the other party remembers it.

However, Pang Hua has an advantage, that is, his nerves are relatively big, and after thinking about it for a while, he no longer thinks about scolding Chen Xing, seeing that Su Yan is very angry, Pang Hua hurriedly explained, "Su Yan, didn't I understand what was going on, you deliberately lied to me that I was not free at noon, and I was eating here with other men, do you think I can not misunderstand." ”

"What's wrong with you? Even if I'm lying to you, who are you to misunderstand? Are we boyfriend and girlfriend? We're just friends, I'm having dinner with other men, are you qualified to misunderstand? Su Yan glared at Pang Hua, in fact, she was not as angry as she appeared, but she felt that this time might also be an opportunity to show off her relationship with Pang Hua.

"Su Yan, I know I'm a little impulsive, it's me who is wrong, don't say such angry words." Pang Hua twisted his waist and gestured to pull Su Yan's arm.

Su Yan dodged away, his face was already a little more resolute, "Pang Hua, whether there is noon or not, I think our relationship should be made clear, if it drags on like this, it will hurt you and me, I have always treated you as a brother, and there is no relationship between men and women, I also hope that you will not have any more thoughts that will affect the friendship between us." ”

"You've always treated me like a brother?" Pang Hua muttered to himself, his expression a little self-deprecating.

"Yes, in my heart, you are more suitable to be a brother than a lover, Pang Hua, if I can, I am willing to recognize you as a godbrother, let's get along like brothers and sisters, not other relationships." Su Yan looked at Pang Hua, seeing that the other party's face was almost whiter than her, and his body twisted like a woman, Su Yan shook his head helplessly, she had been with Pang Hua for a long time, she didn't feel as disgusting as she did at the beginning, but after all, she still didn't like Pang Hua's type of man, a bit too much, Su Yan liked masculine men.

Pang Hua stared at Su Yan, Su Yan had already said it so clearly, how could he not understand what Su Yan meant, there was an indescribable anger, but with his character, he would not scold.

took out a diamond ring that he had selected for Su Yan abroad from his pocket, opened it, and smiled sadly, "I invested so much energy and enthusiasm in you, thinking that you were the same as me, but I didn't expect that I had always been self-inflicted, and this ring was useless, so I should give it to you as a souvenir." ”

Pang Hua said, threw the ring to Su Yan, and walked out, he had his own arrogance, Su Yan said it so clearly, he would not be stalked.

Su Yan looked at the diamond ring in the box, the price tag on the ring had not been torn off, when she saw the price, Su Yan gasped, she didn't dare to accept such a valuable gift, not to mention that now that she had just made the relationship clear with Pang Hua, Su Yan would not accept such a ring with a special meaning.

"Pang Hua, you take back this ring, I can't take it." Su Yan chased after him and stuffed the ring back into Pang Hua's hand, "Pang Hua, don't be like this, we're still friends, aren't we?" ”

"Yes, we're still friends." Pang Hua looked at Su Yan in front of him.

"Since you still regard me as a friend, please take back the ring, I would like to call you Brother Pang in the future, we are still good friends, okay?" Su Yan looked at Pang Hua with a sincere face.

Pang Hua didn't say much, just took back the ring, and finally glanced at Su Yan again, and walked downstairs.

Su Yan's expression was a little unbearable, she had maintained an ambiguous relationship with Pang Hua before, and she had the intention of using Pang Hua, and now she kicked people away like this, Su Yan felt that she was so realistic and scheming for the first time in her heart, but she was also forced to helpless, in this cruel society, she was a beautiful woman, and she could only use others to protect herself.

The sun outside the house is still shining, the sun is shining, and the scorching sun hanging high is as if it is looking at the joys, sorrows, sorrows and sorrows of all living beings, transcendent from the outside.

The air in Wangshan City is very fresh, and the afternoon sun makes people a little lazy, and they want to be lazy on this sunny day, take a stroll on the street, or go for a walk in the park.

In this economically underdeveloped mountain city, the common people have never experienced what smog weather is.

In the canteen of the municipal party committee, Chen Xing sat alone in a corner eating lunch, and when he came back from the restaurant, it was already past the meal, Chen Xing went straight back to the canteen of the organ to eat.

Chen Xing came over to eat, which was surprising, there was still a little talking, but as soon as Chen Xing came, it seemed to be quiet.

In the canteen, there are small boxes specially prepared for the leaders of the municipal party committee, as well as a small stove specially opened, but Chen Xing directly eats like ordinary staff, sitting in the hall to eat, and the food is already slightly cold.

Not far away, a young woman who was also eating curiously and awe-inspiring secretly looked at Chen Xing, she was a staff member of the Secretariat of the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee, not long after entering the work of the Municipal Party Committee, she was the new secretary of the Municipal Party Committee Sun Ying, Sun Ying's original secretary Zhao Yuxuan had been transferred to the following districts and counties as deputy county magistrates, and luck fell on her newcomer.

Chen Xing left the cafeteria after eating, and glanced at a seat diagonally opposite before leaving, the woman diagonally opposite had been secretly observing him, and Chen Xing didn't notice it.

Sun Yi hurriedly buried her head in eating, and she found that Chen Xing had come over.

Chen Xing smiled, didn't pay much attention to anything, left from the cafeteria, and returned to the office, Huang Jianghua thought that Chen Xing went out for private entertainment at noon, but he didn't expect Chen Xing to come back so soon, and when he heard the door opening of the office, he quickly walked out of his small office, and when he saw Chen Xing, Huang Jianghua was surprised, "Secretary, why did you come back so soon?" ”

"I didn't get the food, but I almost got into trouble." Chen Xing joked, and after looking at the time, he turned to Huang Jianghua and said, "Xiao Huang, at two and a half o'clock, you will notify me on time to convene the Standing Committee in the No. 1 conference room of the Municipal Party Committee." ”

"Secretary, wait until two o'clock to be notified?" Huang Jianghua wondered.

"That's right, I won't be notified until after two o'clock, don't notify early." Chen Xing nodded.

When Huang Jianghua heard this, he nodded thoughtfully, thinking that he was still talking to Chen Xing about Xu Yuanfei, the minister of the United Front Work Department, in the morning, could it be that Chen Xing wanted to verify what he said?

At 2:40 p.m., in the No. 1 conference room of the municipal party committee, the first meeting of the standing committee of the municipal party committee convened after Chen Xing's arrival was held, and the standing committee of the 11 municipal party committees of Wangshan City was held, but at this moment, there were only eight people present.

Li Yanpei, secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, was in a car accident and became a vegetative person, and Chen Jianfei, the later secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, also died of a sudden cerebral hemorrhage, so that no new candidate has been appointed for the post of secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection.

But at the moment, there were only eight people in the conference room.

Chen Xing's eyes swept over the faces of the people present one by one, he had only been in Wangshan City for more than ten days, and after three or four days after he came, he immediately led a team to Nanzhou to attract investment, and stayed in Nanzhou for seven days, so he actually stayed in Wangshan for only a few days.

Wei Sida, director of the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee, walked in and whispered in Chen Xing's ear, Chen Xing listened and nodded, it was a call from the Municipal Military Division, Hong Zhengjie, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and political commissar of the Municipal Military Division, couldn't come because the Military Division had a military training task in the afternoon, so he had to deduct another person.

"Political Commissar Hong of the military sub-district can't come, who else hasn't been there?" Chen Xing raised his hand to look at the time and said loudly.

"Secretary Chen, it's Comrade Xu Yuanfei of the United Front Work Department." Li Kaishan responded to Chen Xing's question, faintly expecting something, Chen Xing suddenly convened the Standing Committee, let Li Kaishan guess that it might be related to what the two talked about in the morning, I don't know if Chen Xing will mention the old city renovation project Li Kaishan, I was a little nervous and expectant, under that calm face, Li Kaishan eagerly hoped that the storm would come more violently.

"Oh, Comrade Xu Yuanfei?" Chen Xing's heart moved, "Is Comrade Xu Yuanfei on a business trip?" ”

"Secretary Chen, Comrade Xu Yuanfei may be at his home in Beiyuan City, so he won't be able to come for the time being." Li Kaishan coughed lightly and said.

"At home in Beiyuan City? He doesn't usually look at the mountain? Chen Xing asked quietly.

"Yes, but maybe he's a little unwell, so I'll go back to my home in Beiyuan City from time to time to recuperate." Li Kaishan glanced at the others and knew that no one was willing to answer, so he could only stand up and help Xu Yuanfei cover up.

"I see." Chen Xing glanced at Li Kaishan and didn't ask any more, he was already inclined to believe what Huang Jianghua heard, Xu Yuanfei estimated that he would not be in Wangshan for many years.

His eyes swept over the faces of the people present again, Chen Xing suppressed the doubts in his heart, a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee has been absent from his post for a long time, and the rest of the people are indifferent?

"Now that everyone can get there is here, let's start the meeting." Chen Xing retracted his gaze and spoke.

The conference room was quiet for a while, and everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Xing, the first standing committee after Chen Xing took office, and it was suddenly convened, obviously most people were in the dark and didn't know what was going on.

"It's almost the end of the year, and there is a big financial gap in the city, and I think everyone here knows it." Chen Xing glanced at everyone, and finally fell behind Zhang Lixing, "Two days ago, we came back from Nanzhou, and what we encountered in Fulin Township just after getting off the highway made me deeply touched, we Wangshan City is financially poor, and the grassroots towns and towns are short of money, so they will apportioned to the people, and the phenomenon of indiscriminate charges is strict, and the people are miserable, whose fault is this?" ”

"There are difficulties at the grassroots level, but no matter how difficult it is, we should not extend our hands to the people, this is a blatant use of power to do illegal things." Chen Xing slapped the table and made a loud noise.

In the small conference room, the eight people attending the meeting, except for Chen Xing, who was speaking at this time, the others looked at each other, Chen Xing had just issued a document prohibiting the grassroots government from messing with apportionment and charging behavior, and now the wording was so harsh, what do you want to do?

"Secretary Chen, the city's financial allocation to the grassroots has not been fully allocated, and I think some of the following violations of rules and regulations may also be a last resort." Sun Ying said loudly.

Chen Xing turned his head and glanced at the deputy secretary, since his arrival, he doesn't seem to have had in-depth communication and exchanges with Sun Ying, Chen Xing doesn't know much about this person, at this time, the other party is talking to the grassroots cadres, Chen Xing doesn't feel anything, everything has cause and effect, the root is in the city, and it makes no sense to overly criticize the cadres below, this is why he only issued a document saying that similar behaviors are prohibited in the future, and he didn't think about investigating the behaviors that have happened before. If the rod were all hit on the head of the person below, it would certainly not be a wise move.

What Sun Ying said was the truth, although Chen Xing didn't even have a preliminary impression of this deputy secretary, but now that the other party said this, Chen Xing would not be angry because he couldn't listen to different opinions.

"Deputy Secretary Sun is right, we have to face up to the following difficulties, and we must consider where the real root cause of the problem is." Chen Xing nodded, "The city's finances are already stretched, I think in the future, the city should open up sources and reduce expenditure in many aspects, and everyone can put forward any good ideas." ”

"Since Secretary Chen has made a start, then I will mention a construction yì, the city has to have a part of the cost of buying a bus every year, although this part of the budget is not much, but taking into account the situation in the city, can save on saving, whether it is the city or the district, as well as the counties and cities, but where the car has not reached the scrapping period, it is not allowed to be replaced casually or disposed of as a second-hand car cheaply, the car purchase budget, to control from the source, prohibit waste." After Chen Xing finished speaking, Li Kaishan responded in a timely manner.

Zhang Lixing pursed his lips slightly, and glanced at Li Kaishan quietly, Li Kaishan's mention is not painful, and there is no harm to his interests, Zhang Lixing also secretly said in his heart that Li Kaishan is quite interesting.

"Deputy Mayor Zhang, I just got off the highway that day, and you also witnessed the incident in Fulin Township, ** even if it is just a small thing at first glance, it must not be taken lightly, the source of the big problem is often in some small things, so we must pay attention to it, in the past two days, you have also emphasized on different occasions the prohibition of arbitrary apportionment and arbitrary charges, which is a good thing." Chen Xing looked at Zhang Lixing with a smile, "I think the city should open up sources and reduce expenditure, and you should be able to have a good construction." ”

Chen Xing now has a good impression of Zhang Lixing, Zhang Lixing has been supporting his work as the new secretary with his words and deeds in the past two days, and Chen Xing has a good impression of Zhang Lixing.

Zhang Lixing didn't expect Chen Xing to call his name, his head hadn't moved yet, he didn't know how to open his mouth for a while, where was he really expressing his support for Chen Xing, this will see Chen Xing's words with kindness, Zhang Lixing endured the ridicule in his heart, he made trouble for Chen Xing, Chen Xingmeng didn't say it in the dark, and thanked him stupidly, don't mention the pride in Zhang Lixing's heart, things are really as he thought, young people, not being played with between applause.

"What's the matter, Vice Mayor Zhang doesn't have anything to build?" Chen Xing asked.

"It's not." When Zhang Lixing heard Chen Xing's words, he hurriedly waved his hand, and said in a hurry, "Secretary Chen, the city wants to open up sources and reduce expenditure, and this kind of thing can't be explained clearly in a few words, let alone one or two suggestions that can be solved, such as how to open source?" How to throttle? In the case of Wangshan City, it is not easy to do this. ”

"What Vice Mayor Zhang said makes sense, but let's not discuss it at the Standing Committee now, everyone will put forward any suggestions, after all, this is to provide reference for the city to formulate a series of regulations." Chen Xing said with a smile, "I have also learned a situation in the past few days, the city's official entertainment is basically in the Xincheng Hotel, which is a five-star hotel, and the consumption is expensive. ”

As soon as Chen Xing mentioned Xincheng Hotel, the atmosphere suddenly became sensitive, and suddenly became quiet.

Chen Xing couldn't figure out the real reason for this, thinking that it was just a mention of eating and drinking at public expense, which made everyone sensitive, after all, most of the city leaders here were also socialized in the Xincheng Hotel, and when he mentioned this, others may not have a very good face.

Li Kaishan glanced at Chen Xing, looked at the others, and secretly said in his heart, come soon, Chen Xing has almost stabbed the outer edge of the window paper, just see if the window paper can be reached below.

Li Kaishan sat indifferently, his eyes were actually observing Chen Xing tightly.

"By the way, there is something that we can discuss together, which is also the main topic of today's meeting." Chen Xing looked around at everyone, "The city's old city renovation project costs a lot of money, our Wangshan City's annual financial revenue at the municipal level is less than 6 billion, and a single old city renovation project, the first phase of the project will invest more than 10 billion, I think this is a bit inconsistent with our actual situation?" The main thing is that I don't see the real point of this old city renovation project. ”

Chen Xing said while watching everyone's reactions, this matter should involve the interests of all parties in Wangshan City, Chen Xing put forward his own ideas, and undoubtedly wanted to see what other people thought, and continued, "In view of the actual situation in the city, I think we should suspend this project first." ”

"Secretary Chen, by all means." As soon as Chen Xing's voice fell, Zhang Lixing couldn't wait to speak, and almost got up on the case.

"Vice Mayor Zhang, what's wrong?" Chen Xing looked at Zhang Lixing suspiciously.

"Secretary Chen, this project has been launched, and the early funds have been invested, if it is suspended now, won't the early investment be lost? And we also have to take into account that those people who have been demolished are not, if the project is stopped, when will those people who have demolished their houses be able to move back? Zhang Lixing said in a hurry.

Chen Xing frowned, the people who have been demolished, this is indeed a problem that has to be considered, in the final analysis, when this project was first decided, how did it make a decision? Chen Xing still can't understand.

"Secretary Chen, this project is the largest project in our city over the years, the significance of Wangshan is very important, the old city renovation is not only a start of the city's planning and construction of Wangshan New Town, but also a key project of the city to build a business card of Wangshan City, how can you say stop it, and the city is working with the Xincheng Group to develop this old city renovation project, if we unilaterally announce the suspension of this project, it is our breach of contract." Zhang Lixing saw that Chen Xing didn't speak, and said again.

"Secretary Chen, I also don't think it's appropriate to suspend this old city renovation project." Bo Xiangtao, deputy mayor of the Standing Committee, said.

Li Kaishan glanced at Zhang Lixing, then at Bo Xiangtao, and finally swept his gaze from the face of Lin Siwei, the head of the organization department, he knew that the voices against Chen Xing had not all jumped out, and Chen Xing's proposal would definitely not be heard at the Standing Committee.

But at this moment, Li Kaishan was already satisfied, as long as Chen Xing said it, he would have achieved his goal, he didn't expect this project to really stop, so that Zhang Lixing and others felt that Chen Xing would cause danger to their interests, this is the first goal that Li Kaishan wants to achieve.

"Secretary Chen, I think suspending this project may not be the best option." Li Kaishan finally spoke at this time.

As soon as Li Kaishan spoke, Zhang Lixing finally showed a satisfied smile on his face, Li Kaishan was in his control, and he couldn't make any waves, and in the end he could only speak for them.

Chen Xing nodded imperceptibly, as soon as he brought it up, it was all against it, and the others didn't speak, and it was probably not in favor of doing so, which was obviously unexpected by him, Chen Xing expected that someone would object, but he definitely didn't expect that there would not even be a voice of support.

Sun Ying, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, drank tea indifferently, his eyes wandered on the faces of Chen Xing, Li Kaishan, Zhang Lixing and others, Sun Ying is not a very ambitious person, she only needs to keep her own interests of this acre and three points of land is enough, Zhang Lixing will not violate her interests, she will not dismantle the other party's platform, the two have invisibly formed a tacit understanding, the well water does not violate the river water, this will, Sun Ying did not say anything, her attitude is neutral.

The atmosphere in the conference room was quiet, and under the seemingly calm atmosphere, there was actually an undercurrent surging, Chen Xing hadn't realized anything yet, but Zhang Lixing was tense, staring at Chen Xing, his eyes flickering, not knowing what he was thinking.
