The sky was overcast, the wind was blowing with a little coolness, the rain was still heavy, and the huge raindrops fell on the umbrellas, knocking out a crackling sound, as if with rhythm.

"I don't think the rain will stop for a while." Xiao Yuanqing looked at the dim sky, shook his head and said.

When Chen Xing got out of the car, Huang Jianghua had already taken the first step to get out of the car and hold an umbrella for him, and the same was true for the rest of the leaders.

"I'll do it myself." Chen Xing took the umbrella from Huang Jianghua's hand.

Huang Jianghua was slightly stunned, and hurriedly said, "Mayor, let's come." ”

"No need." Chen Xing waved his hand.

Huang Jianghua saw Chen Xing's attitude, so he didn't say anything, he knew that Chen Xing's character was not necessary, it seemed to be just a trivial matter, but what Chen Xing decided could not be changed by others.

This is just a small thing that can be ignored, but the people next to him are busy for a while, and the rest of the leaders follow and take the umbrellas from the staff around them and learn in style.

"This Chen Xing is quite good at showmanship." Liao Jianye, secretary of the Chongbei Municipal Party Committee, who was standing on the side, was holding an umbrella in his hand, but he muttered secretly in his heart, in his opinion, Chen Xing did this on purpose to show others.

Under the leadership of Sun Wencai, director of the Reservoir Management Bureau, Chen Xing and his entourage visited the embankment to understand the situation of the reservoir.

As the person in charge of the reservoir, Sun Wencai is also responsible for explaining as a matter of course, this opportunity to show his face in front of the leader, he will not miss it, on a lookout, everyone stopped, Sun Wencai introduced to Chen Xing, "Mayor, the current water level of our Beishan Reservoir is running normally, during the rainy season every year, the reservoir will be at a high water level overall, but it is still within the normal control range." ”

"Director Sun, if this rain doesn't stop, I think the water level will rise soon." Xiao Yuanqing said with a smile.

"Well, we have roughly counted it, from last night to now, the rainfall has been close to about 150 ml, and there is no sign of stopping, it is estimated that it will increase, which is a rare heavy rainstorm this year." Sun Wencai nodded, and when he said this, his eyes also condensed slightly.

"It shows that this year's rainy season is menacing, Beishan Reservoir is the first barrier of flood control in Nanzhou, the task on your shoulders is very heavy, especially when the rainy season comes, flood control work is the key work of the city, and your reservoir management bureau should always be vigilant to ensure the safe operation of the reservoir." Chen Xing said, subconsciously glanced down the mountain, and said with a smile, "Beishan Reservoir is the closest to the city and the largest reservoir in the city. ”

Chen Xing's last words were said in a joking tone, and it was also a casual sentence, and the rest of the people didn't feel anything after listening to it, but Sun Wencai and other cadres of the reservoir management bureau present trembled when they heard it, Nanzhou is the provincial capital, the political, economic, and cultural center of the province, and it is the largest city in the province, with an urban population of 7 million, and the permanent population of the urban area is close to 3 million.

Quietly glanced at the very beautiful reservoir made of the appearance of the project, Sun Wencai knew very well that under the beautiful appearance of the thick layer of cement walls was a large area of cutting corners, far from it, just take the last time the reservoir management bureau submitted the reservoir repair plan to the city, the city allocated 50 million, if the construction is according to the drawings, the last repair, the reservoir dam should be tamped with 15 cm thick beans and sand, plus 15 cm thick cement slabs, and Sun Wencai directly asked the construction party to omit the beans and sand, The cement wall is only 10 centimeters, and the construction is not strictly in accordance with the drawings, there is no doubt that the cost saved, basically into the pockets of their management, of course, Sun Wencai, also knows that everyone makes money, the employee welfare of the reservoir management bureau has never been bad, Sun Wencai is still very kind to the people below, as for the unsociable Zhang Shaoliang, Sun Wencai directly kicked it aside, most people wear the same pants as him, and a Zhang Shaoliang can't make any waves.

The worry in his heart was just fleeting, Sun Wencai didn't think about anything more, nothing happened for so many years, what was there to be afraid of? He doesn't believe that something will happen this year, this rain is so big, how many days and nights can it be? Sun Wencai is a typical person who is drunk today, as long as nothing happens, he will be at ease.

The rain fell very heavily, Sun Wencai 'dutiful' in the role of commentary, the entire Beishan Reservoir under his rendering, but also became an impregnable wall, even if it is a once-in-a-century flood, Beishan Reservoir can also undertake the task of flood control in Nanzhou City.

Chen Xing and his entourage did not return to the city until the evening, in addition to the Beishan Reservoir, the group went to another reservoir, which is far away from the city, and the scale of the reservoir is smaller than that of the Beishan Reservoir.

Back in the city, stay in the office for a while, Chen Xing went to the hotel, Jiang Jianfei asked him at noon, he was not available, and the other party persevered in the evening, Chen Xing didn't know why Jiang Jianfei, who had never crossed paths, wanted to meet him privately, and he was also a little curious, so he agreed to the invitation in the evening.

When he arrived at the hotel, Jiang Jianfei was already standing at the door of the hotel waiting for Chen Xing, when Chen Xing saw Jiang Chenggang standing next to Jiang Jianfei, he was stunned for a moment, these two knew at a glance that they were father and son, and then, Chen Xing also suddenly realized, he guessed that Jiang Jianfei could not have asked him in private for no reason.

But when he thought of just this kind of trivial matter, Chen Xing couldn't help but shake his head, if Jiang Chenggang was looking for him specifically for this kind of thing, it would be too much of a fuss, although he would repay it, but this kind of trivial matter would not make him make a big move, Jiang Chenggang found a few gangsters to make trouble in He Li's Cafe, and then wanted to play a heroic drama, which seemed to him to be almost a child's trick, and it was not worth his attention at all.

"Mayor Chen, please." Jiang Jianfei respectfully invited Chen Xing inside, and Jiang Chenggang on the side squeezed out a smile on his face, wishing that he could smile as bright as a chrysanthemum, for fear that Chen Xing would not be satisfied.

Chen Xing nodded lightly, and several people walked in together, Chen Xing felt that while Jiang Jianfei was making a big fuss, Jiang Jianfei was also making his own little calculations in his heart, tonight, maybe it was his chance.

Jiang Jianfei walked respectfully beside Chen Xing, a small position behind Chen Xing, just right to highlight Chen Xing, this subtle detail is a reflection of his attitude tonight, Jiang Jianfei believes that Chen Xing can definitely see some of his sincerity from some of his inadvertent actions, can be mixed in the officialdom, and the ability to observe words and expressions is indispensable.

When he arrived in the box, Chen Xing didn't see anything outside, he sat down by himself, Chen Xing just smiled indifferently at Jiang Jianfei's low posture, if the other party really just apologized for the café, this attitude was speechless.

Jiang Jianfei sat down across Chen Xing's seat, glanced at his son on the side, Jiang Chenggang warmly greeted Chen Xing's driver Li Yong to sit down, and then sat down, seeing his father's face, Jiang Chenggang smiled dryly, he understood what his father meant, and when he should bow his head, he had to bow his head, face is the most worthless.

"This rain is heavy enough, it rains endlessly, and it affects the travel of ordinary people." Jiang Jianfei had nothing to say, and said to Chen Xing with a smile.

"This shows that the drainage system in the urban area needs to be improved." Chen Xing nodded, just now, he did see that many streets were flooded, and they were about to become waterways, if the water went up further, maybe it should be flooded to some shops along the streets in lower sections.

"It's not often that it rains like this for a day and a night." Jiang Jianfei smiled, and did not comment on whether there was a problem with the drainage system in the urban area, he was appointed by the political and legal committee, and it didn't mean much to him to comment on this, besides, he knew that when the previous mayor was in office, he had allocated special funds to expand and upgrade the drainage system in the urban area, and the person who was specifically responsible for this matter at that time was now the secretary general of the municipal government, so if his words were passed out, even if there was no special meaning, it was difficult to ensure that others would not think about it, so as to offend people, so Jiang Jianfei didn't want to make more trouble, Although there are only Chen Xing and his driver here besides their father and son, it is almost impossible for the words of the two sides to chat, but Jiang Jianfei is such a cautious person by nature.

"Mayor Chen, you came here in the rain today, that gave me a big face, and I am very grateful in my heart." Jiang Jianfei changed his words and said with a smile.

While the two were talking, the hotel had already begun to serve food, this was the hotel where Jiang Jianfei usually entertained, and before Chen Xing came over, he had asked the hotel to prepare a banquet in advance, and as soon as Chen Xing arrived, the speed of serving the food was very fast.

The main leaders of the Nanzhou Meteorological Bureau and the Meteorological Bureau are working overtime tonight, and the heavy rain that lasts for a day and night is not only testing the drainage system of the urban area, but also testing the city's emergency response ability for flood prevention and disaster prevention.

At this moment, in the meteorological monitoring hall of the Municipal Meteorological Bureau, the main leaders of the Meteorological Bureau and the staff are watching the satellite cloud image, in the next 24 hours, the satellite cloud image over Nanzhou City, is still a thick layer of clouds, from the health cloud map, the next day, the heavy rain in Nanzhou City, I am afraid it will continue, as for how much rainfall will reach, no one can predict for sure.

"The rain has been going on for a day and a night, according to our analysis, the rain will not stop, and in the past day, the counties with a lot of rainfall have reached more than 150 milliliters, in order to better cope with the heavy rain, I think it is necessary to activate the emergency response mechanism." In the monitoring hall, Shen Yuan, director of the Meteorological Bureau and secretary of the party group, held an ad hoc meeting, and said after learning about the weather map for the coming day and making an analysis.

"I agree with Shen Ju's suggestion that entering May is the traditional rainy season in Nanzhou, and this heavy rain is even more menacing, we need to pay attention to it, if there is a serious disaster accident because of our negligence, I think no one can bear the responsibility." Deputy Director Huang Peide nodded in agreement with Shen Yuan's words, in the face of this kind of heavy rain, it is very necessary to activate the emergency response mechanism, which is also the work of the Meteorological Bureau, and the key is the level of emergency response.

"Then it was decided that from now on it will enter the level 4 emergency response work state, and at the same time, the office will prepare a notice to require all relevant units to do a good job of emergency response work in strict accordance with the meteorological disaster emergency response workflow." Shen Yuan glanced at everyone, and saw that the rest of the people had no opinions, so he decided in one word, in fact, this meeting is more just a formality, it has been raining for so long, if the Meteorological Bureau has not done anything, then they can all go home and farm, and it can only be said that it is normal to start the emergency response, level 4 is only the lowest level, and the Meteorological Bureau can also adjust the level according to the latest rain conditions.

Shen Yuan said, paused, turned his head to look at Huang Peide, and said, "Comrade Peide will go to the city government with me and report the first-hand situation to the city leaders on duty. ”

"Okay." Huang Peide nodded, indicating that he had no objection.

………

In the hotel, Jiang Jianfei got up with a smile and toasted Chen Xing, "Mayor Chen, I toast you." ”

Chen Xing nodded slightly, raised his glass and touched Jiang Jianfei, and took a sip, the other party was not qualified to let him drink more.

"Mayor Chen, I don't know that Miss He is your friend, and I have no eyes and offends, and I hope that Mayor Chen, your prime minister, can hold the boat in your belly, don't worry about me." Jiang Chenggang was signaled by his father's eyes, and then he also got up to make amends to Chen Xing.

Saying that, Jiang Chenggang poured a full glass of wine to the end, and under Chen Xing's gaze, he poured another glass and drank it again to the end, so it was not over, Jiang Chenggang continued to pour it, still a full glass, or dried it in one gulp, and drank three glasses in a row without stopping.

Chen Xing glanced at Jiang Chenggang and smiled dumbly, "You said that you offended that Miss He, why did you come to me to apologize, you should go to her to apologize." ”

"Mayor Chen, I have apologized seriously to Miss He, and Miss He is willing to forgive me, I am thinking that Miss He is your friend after all, and I should always apologize to Mayor Chen." Jiang Chenggang said flatteringly, thinking about the scene of being sneered at by the other party when he apologized to He Li, Jiang Chenggang's face was somewhat stupid, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only make He Li angry enough, and he was scolded by He Li, plus he paid another 100,000 yuan for medical expenses, He Li did not pursue it, thinking of this, Jiang Chenggang was a little painful, the manager of the café was just a skin injury, he had to pay 100,000 yuan out as soon as he took it, and it was not such a trick to have money.

"Since Miss He forgives you, then you came to me for more than one, I am not the party, why are you apologizing to me." Chen Xing shook his head and smiled, a few little policemen at the bottom, Chen Xing didn't even have the intention to pursue it, he could completely understand the mentality of the people at the bottom, who would miss the opportunity to tie up with the leader's son? As long as he doesn't make a big mistake, Chen Xing won't do anything to smash people's jobs.

Jiang Chenggang could only smile bitterly when he heard Chen Xing say this, at this time, he didn't have the slightest air of flying and domineering, and he didn't dare to have it, although Chen Xing's words were so, but Jiang Chenggang could only listen to it, he dared not to apologize to Chen Xing? Well, even if he dares, his father will drag him to come, Chen Xing will put on an attitude of not caring, but this is just an attitude made after his sincere apology, who knows what the consequences will be if he does nothing?

After Jiang Jianfei saw Chen Xing's smiling face, he also let out a long sigh in his heart, Chen Xing really won't keep an eye on this matter anymore, which made a stone in Jiang Jianfei's heart also fall to the ground, but coming over tonight, obviously it's not just this matter, Jiang Jianfei saw Chen Xing raise his hand and glanced at the time, knowing that Chen Xing didn't want to stay longer, and hurriedly said, "Mayor Chen, I don't know how the smuggling case investigated by Assistant Zhou is going?" ”

"Huh?" Chen Xing turned his head to look at Jiang Jianfei suspiciously, the other party's question was very sudden, without any warning, the key is that this should not be asked by Jiang Jianfei casually, as the deputy secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, Jiang Jianfei and his department have no intersection, and suddenly asking this kind of question will only make people suspicious.

"Mayor Chen, that's the case, I also know some information, maybe it will be helpful for Assistant Zhou to crack this smuggling case, so I just asked casually." Jiang Jianfei restrained his expression, he didn't want to be misunderstood by Chen Xing.

"yes, what's your understanding? You might as well say ......" Before Chen Xing finished speaking, his mobile phone rang.

The call was from Shao Huadong, and it was the landline of Shao Huadong's office, Chen Xing picked up as soon as he saw the number, "Huadong, what's the matter?" ”

"Mayor Chen, Comrade Shen Yuan of the Meteorological Bureau is here with me, it is about the weather conditions in the past two days, the Meteorological Bureau thinks that the heavy rain will continue, do you want to come over?"

"Okay, I'll go over later." Chen Xing didn't think much about it and agreed, a day of heavy rain has made the roads in the city become an ocean, if the rainstorm will continue, I don't know what will happen, especially in some mountainous areas, there are more potential geological disasters, these have to be taken seriously, Chen Xing knew that Shao Huadong would call him, he must think that it must be paid attention to, he still recognizes Shao Huadong's attitude towards things.

Hanging up the phone, Chen Xing looked at Jiang Jianfei and stared at each other with burning eyes.

"Mayor Chen, let me tell you what I know." Jiang Jianfei didn't dare to do anything when he saw Chen Xing's appearance, even if he used the information he knew to get benefits from Chen Xing, he didn't have that qualification, so let's see if he could use this matter to build a career ladder for himself, which was more real than anything else.
