The most important thing is that this gift was taken by Wu Daguang anyway, and he doesn't have to take out the silver from his pocket, he has used his old relationship for many years this time, and it can be regarded as giving up his old capital, and he Wu Daguang should spend more.

Holding two treasures in his hands, Hu Yaping asked Wu Daguang to sit in his office and wait, while he himself went to Chang Chongde's office.

Some people say that gift-giving in broad daylight is not afraid of being seen and has a bad impact? This view has long been outdated now, just imagine, when the moon is dark and the wind is high, someone comes to the door of a certain leader's house with something, and outsiders see it, and the first two words that come to mind are "guilds".

Besides, now gifts are not like before, boxes of cigarettes and alcohol are moved to the leader's house, since the leader is sitting in a certain position, where will there be a shortage of things like tobacco and alcohol? What catches the eye a little must be high-end goods of great value, especially some antique calligraphy and paintings, which look inconspicuous but are worth a lot of money.

Just like the two small gifts that Hu Yaping prepared to give to Chang Chongde, he took a document bag and put the two small gift boxes inside, where would anyone think that there were such valuable things in these two small boxes?

Hu Yaping and Chang Chongde got in touch a long time ago, at that time, Chang Chongde's position was not very high, and Hu Yaping was just a middle-level cadre in a department of the provincial party committee, but because the two had a university alumni relationship, they gradually became closer.

Both of them knew in their hearts that if they could meet in such an environment, everyone's future development prospects would not be too bad, so this relationship was maintained until Chang Chongde rose step by step and reached the position of vice governor of the Standing Committee, and after Hu Yaping also became the director of the department, the two had slightly less contact because of their busy work.

At that time, Hu Yaping in order to compete for the secretary of the municipal party committee of Pu'an City, he also thought out of his mind, he understood that in this year, no matter how close the relationship is, no matter how deep the relationship is, no matter how deep the relationship is, there is no money to give gifts, so he prepared a heavy gift to Chang Chongde, hoping that he can help himself blow the wind in front of the leaders of the provincial party committee.

That was the first time Hu Yaping gave Chang Chongde a very expensive gift, he originally thought that Chang Chongde would give in a little, even if it was a polite sentence, he would feel more comfortable in his heart, but he didn't expect that Chang Chongde's attitude was calm, and it seemed that Hu Yaping gave him the same as before, a case of good wine, or a good cigarette.

Since that gift-giving, Hu Yaping has understood in his heart, the disparity in status between the two has naturally separated each other, and there is a reason why Chang Chongde has been able to mix so well over the years.

It is precisely because Hu Yaping thinks that he understands Chang Chongde, so he will let Wu Daguang prepare a generous gift, and in his heart, he concluded that Chang Chongde is now an iron man who does not see rabbits and does not scatter eagles.

Chang Chongde had just returned from a foreign investigation, and when he heard that Hu Yaping was coming, he asked the secretary to beckon Hu Yaping to come in and sit, and said with emotion as soon as he met, "I have been to the European countries of Britain and Germany, and I know that the state apparatus of other people is actually a completely different way of operating, for example, Britain adopts the employment system, and all civil servants only have work in their eyes, and there is no difference between political parties."

Regardless of the political party in power, the result is the same for all civil servants, who continue to do their regular work every day without the slightest change, including their salaries and salaries.

I feel that such a civil service system also has advantages and disadvantages, at least in the case of corruption, the country does not need to spend a lot of manpower and material resources, and officials do not need to have too much communication with each other to get the position they want through the normal competition process, and everything seems to be more fair and just.

The biggest flaw of this system is that the control of the upper echelons over the grassroots officials is too poor, and when the upper echelons want to reform some imperfect systems, they need to make several times the effort of the top level in China, the cost is not negligible, and it is difficult to guarantee the results. ”

Listening to the rise of Chang Chongde, Hu Yaping did not interrupt, he knew in his heart that according to his current position, everyone would think that he had a lot of time to listen to other people's nonsense, anyway, even if he didn't sit here and listen to nonsense, it would be cold and lonely to sit there alone when he returned to the office.

Chang Chongde talked happily for a while, and then he considered that Hu Yaping's expression looked like something was wrong, so he asked, "The old classmate came here today, nothing important, right?" ”

Hu Yaping finally took the opportunity to speak, and hurriedly put the two small gift boxes in his hand on the usual Chongde desk and said: "I brought two rare things today, please appreciate them, I am a layman with these things, but I must give me advice." ”

Chang Chongde stretched out his hand to open the small box on the table, the first Rolex watch didn't pay much attention to it, and when he saw the snuff bottle, his eyes couldn't help but glow strangely.

Gently holding up the petite snuff box, Chang Chongde said in a somewhat surprised tone: "Where did Secretary Hu get such a rare thing, I heard that the price of this thing has risen a lot recently, your thing looks exquisitely made, and there is a self-evident aristocratic atmosphere inside and out, it won't be a good thing that flows out of the palace, right?" ”

Hu Yaping nodded and said: "Governor Chang is really a knowledgeable person, the snuff bottle is said to have been exiled overseas for a time after coming out of the palace, that is, in the past two years, the economic situation of the Chinese people has improved, so they have the heart to buy this thing abroad at a high price." ”

Chang Chongde heard this, carefully put the snuff box in his hand into the gift box and said:

"Old Hu, I don't dare to play with such a valuable thing, if I break Secretary Hu's beloved by mistake, where can I find you an exact one."

Hu Yaping saw Chang Chongde joking, knowing that he didn't see him, so he said honestly:

"This snuff bottle will definitely not be more than ten in the world, and it is a rarity, since I like it, even if I take it, I don't know much about this thing, and in your hands, at least you can say that you are ugly, if you keep it in my hands, it will become a tyrannical thing."

A string in Chang Chongde's mind immediately became alert, how could the well-behaved Hu Yaping send such a valuable thing to himself? I'm afraid that Hu Yaping must have something to ask for his help, and when he was competing for the secretary of the municipal party committee before, he didn't give such a big gift, and this gift must be a very troublesome thing.

Thinking like this, Chang Chongde began to excuse himself, and said to Hu Yaping:

"Secretary Hu is so polite, as the so-called merit is not rewarded, how can I be embarrassed to accept such a valuable gift from Chairman Hu out of thin air? Besides, everyone is an old classmate, and it's not good to do that, so if there's something, just say it. ”

Hu Yaping hurriedly explained:

"Actually, I came to you today, there is a small matter to ask you for help, I used to have an old subordinate who was the head of Puhe District, Pu'an City, you know, the grassroots leading cadres, sometimes for the needs of work, it is inevitable that there is not something in place in the work methods or other details.

I don't know what's going on? This District Mayor Wu offended Chen Dalong, the new secretary of the District Party Committee of Puhe District, no, Chen Dalong grabbed District Mayor Wu's pigtails and didn't let go, seeing that a leading cadre with good quality in all aspects was going to be investigated because of some small problems, and I was also passionate in my heart, so I would go to the Governor's Office to plead for my subordinates who were not successful, and see if I could ask the leaders to help. ”

As soon as Hu Yaping said this, Chang Chongde couldn't help but weigh it in his heart, to say that Hu Yaping and Chen Dalong are naturally much heavier than Hu Yaping, but Hu Yaping has a relationship with himself and the old alumnus, and this time he bowed his head and begged for help, if he didn't give face, it didn't seem appropriate to look down and see him in the future.

This made Chang Chongde feel a little embarrassed, not only could not damage Chen Dalong's interests, but also had to give Hu Ya a face, how to be as thoughtful as possible?

Chang Chongde asked Hu Yaping: "Old Hu, what is the reason why Wu Daguang, as the head of the district, actually got into trouble with Chen Dalong, secretary of the district party committee, to such an inextricable point?" ”

Hu Yaping knew a lot of things, even if he wanted to hide it, it was impossible, so he started with the project of Huda Square in 1510, and briefly said the many contradictions between Wu Daguang and Chen Dalong.

Chang Chongde understood as soon as he heard it, the typical land grabbing, power and profit led to a series of unpleasant things, in the process of this competition, Wu Daguang was the old landlord at the beginning, Chen Dalong was not allowed to enter, as a result, Chen Dalong attacked, and now it is obvious that Wu Daguang is in a very disadvantageous position, so he will come to the provincial capital to ask the old leader Hu Yaping for help.

After listening to Hu Yaping's narration, Chang Chongde smiled at Hu Yaping and said:

"Chairman Hu, you have also been a leader at the grassroots level, if there is a deputy who uses various means to deal with you like this, I believe you can't help but find a way to embarrass him, I can help you talk to Chen Dalong for the time being, but if you want Chen Dalong to clear up the misunderstanding of the District Chief Wu, I am afraid that he will have to make some efforts himself."

Hu Yaping's biggest wish at the moment is first to ensure Wu Daguang's safety, and other things have the possibility of operation, so when he heard Chang Chongde's words with the intention of agreeing to help, he was also excited in his heart, and quickly nodded like a chicken pecking rice and said:

"Don't worry, after this lesson, I believe District Chief Wu will know what to do in the future."

Chang Chongde said:

"Okay, I understand what Chairman Hu means, Chen Dalong and I are acquaintances, I will contact Secretary Chen later, I believe that he will still give me this face. But that old subordinate of yours, you have to go back and teach a good lesson.
