Sangzi County is located in the narrow valley not far from the foot of Huangling Mountain, rectangular, long from east to west, narrow from north to south. Like most towns in the south of the Yangtze River, Sangzi County also has a river running through it, but the Swill River is more than one size smaller than the Liushui River.

Of course, Sangzi County is one size smaller than Yongping County, and the permanent population of the county is more than 60,000 people, and there is basically no floating population.

Recently, the most discussed among the people and officials of Sangzi County is the new county party secretary Zhang Qingyun, a 28-year-old young man. For this young man who has never met, everyone has doubts and disappointments, but more envy and expectation, because many people know that the new secretary was directly sent by the province and is the pride of Sang Zi's son General Huang.

Zhang Qingyun took the car of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, set off from Wuling City, and went straight to Sangzi County. He was accompanied by Zhuo Fuzheng, deputy director of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee.

The car walked around the mountain col for more than 3 hours, and Sangzi County was finally in sight. Looking at Sangzi County from the tip of the Yellow Ridge, there are rows of red bricks and white walls, and the shadows are sufficient, but there is a bit of the taste of a paradise.

"Secretary Zhang, there is still half an hour to go, have you been here before?" Zhuo Fuzheng said with a smile.

Zhang Qingyun nodded, and suddenly said, "Stop!" ”

The driver squeaked and stopped the car, and looked back at Zhang Qingyun suspiciously, Zhang Qingyun smiled: "Take the left fork in the road, and go to pay homage to the former residence of General Huang first." ”

Zhuo Fuzheng was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, didn't say anything after all, waved his hand at the driver, the driver took the order, started the car and sped away from the narrow cement road next to it.

"It's only autumn now, and this mulberry is already cold." Zhang Qingyun said with a smile.

"It's like this everywhere in the mountains, just get used to it, hehe!" Zhuo Fu was righteous, but there was a hint of playfulness in his eyes, Zhang Qingyun changed his hexagram on the spot, and suddenly proposed to visit the former residence of General Huang, which was indeed a profound move.

It seems that he also knows that he is not very popular in Sangzi, Zhu Ziheng's scheming today can be regarded as in vain, the dishes are all ready, the main owner is delayed, this time go to the former residence of General Huang to take a turn, it should be dark when you enter the city!

The former residence of General Huang is actually a Tujia stilted building, a wooden structure house. This place is basically not patronized all year round, but the local political axe still sent a left-behind old man here, and it was already evening when Zhang Qingyun arrived here.

But he was not impatient at all, and visited the house inside and outside with great interest, full of nostalgia, but in his heart he was thinking about the difficulties he was facing.

He is now single-handedly parachuting into Sangzi, and it is not easy to gain a firm foothold in such a semi-autonomous county. Zhu Ziheng, the current county magistrate of Sangzi County, and Zhang Qingyun have been specially studied and are ruthless characters.

said that he was ruthless because this person didn't have much culture and came out of society. In the 80s, when the minority policy was just emerging, he, as a Tujia family, became a civil servant by giving gifts and running to the dock.

and then all the way up, until he held the power of Sangzi County tightly in his hands and became the emperor of the land who dominated the party. Such a person's intrigue is certainly powerful, but the black and white skills must not be underestimated.

Yesterday, Ni Qiuyue reminded Zhang Qingyun that Zhu Ziheng has a long tentacles, and he has a lot of dependence in Wuling, and the underground organization in Wuling City has a connection with him. Many powerful people who want to come to Wuling to get a piece of the pie, Zhu Ziheng is first of all their wooing object.

So from this point of view, Zhu Ziheng is not only the soil emperor of Sangzi, but actually a local tyrant, and he has definitely done murder and arson. Zhang Qingyun has to deal with such a ruthless character alone, the difficulty can be imagined!

Before Zhang Qingyun arrived in Sangzi, it is said that Zhu Ziheng let people let out the wind and asked Zhang Qingyun to lie down and leave Sangzi. Such words are released from the mouth of an official, and the views of the organization are cloudy, which is pure nonsense.

Zhang Qingyun knows that he is not only facing a politician, but also a very likely outlaw. Of course, Zhang Qingyun was not afraid in his heart, the so-called death was just an outside statement. It is difficult for a rich and powerful earth emperor like Zhu Ziheng to die, this is a surname, and he may be more afraid of death than ordinary people.

The biggest difficulty Zhang Qingyun is facing now is that he is isolated and has no soldiers, and it is difficult to control the situation in this situation!

After paying homage to the former residence of General Huang, when Zhang Qingyun turned back to enter the county seat, it was already more than 8:00 in the evening. The streets of Sangzi County are divided into front streets and back streets, two narrow and parallel roads, and there is a corridor in the middle of every other section.

The county seat is very small, but there is still a bit of a flow of people at night, and Zhang Qingyun's car went around the city for a few circles before arriving at the county party committee compound near the river in the back street.

Sangzi County Party Committee and political axe in a courtyard, the yard is very magnificent, the door is a pair of more than 2 meters high blue stone lions, the gate is tall and mighty, inlaid with a basin-sized national emblem in the middle, adding a bit of solemnity.

"Squeak!" With a sound, the driver stopped the car steadily, and then hurriedly got out of the car to open the door, Zhuo Fuzheng came out first, and when Zhang Qingyun came out, he found that the yard was full of people, he nodded to everyone, smiled slightly, and burst into warm applause.

The leader was a man of about fifty years old, wearing a black leather jacket, with a dark face but a smile on his face. There is a burning scar on the place of the chin, which must be Zhu Ziheng.

"Haha, Secretary Zhang, welcome! Welcome! Why are you here so late? After everyone applauded, Zhu Ziheng took the lead and said with a smile.

Holding his hands tightly, Zhang Qingyun said: "Sangzi Mountain is beautiful and the water is beautiful, this way is nostalgic, it's too late." There's no need to wait so late! It's the same if you don't see you today, and you'll see you tomorrow! ”

Haha smiled, Zhu Ziheng came over with his other hand and put it on the hands of the two of them, showing his true feelings, and said: "Come, don't say much kind words, let me help you introduce our Sangzi team!" ”

After speaking, Zhang Qingyun walked all the way forward, Liu Decai, deputy secretary of the party and the masses, Chen Jingyun, executive deputy county magistrate, Xu Ping, director of the Organization Department, Shan Jianhua, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, Gu Zhonghe, minister of the United Front Work Department, Yu Hanying, minister of propaganda, Cao Bing, minister of armed forces, Chen Gang, director of the county party committee office, etc., all the Standing Committee members were all present.

Shaking hands with everyone, Zhang Qingyun remembered everyone's names and appearances one by one, and didn't say anything like that, just said: "Everyone, I stayed on the road for too long just now, and my stomach growled." Now that the meal is ready, let's head straight to the ground! ”

Everyone smiled, the new secretary was young and straightforward, and everyone had a rough impression of Zhang Qingyun.

The reception arranged by the county party committee office was in the only star-rated hotel in the county, Wangshan Hotel, more than a dozen people, four or five cars, everyone went straight to the destination.

Of course, Zhang Qingyun and Zhu Ziheng were in a car, and Chen Gang, the county party committee office, sat in the passenger seat.

"Secretary Zhang, I heard that you are from Yongping? Our Sangzi can not be compared to Yongping, this reception hotel is not as good as Liushuihe Hotel, the conditions are limited, I hope you will forgive me! Zhu Ziheng said politely.

Zhang Qingyun waved his hand and said with a smile: "Sangyong is a poor place, how can there be so much pomp. But I, a Yongping person, came to be the secretary of the Sangzi County Party Committee, and many people inevitably wanted to coax it! ”

"That's pure nonsense, someone is talking about this, fortunately, it is Secretary Liu who grasps the propaganda work of the party and the masses, he noticed this unhealthy trend for the first time, and I promise that no one will dare to chew the root of my tongue in the future." Zhu Ziheng said.

"That's not necessary, the mouth of the people is more important than the defense of Sichuan, what do others like to say, it is said that they have seen the hearts of the people for a long time, and the road knows the horsepower!" Zhang Qingyun said with a smile. In his heart, he figured out the meaning of Zhu Ziheng's words.

Sang Zi, Zhu Ziheng and Liu Decai were jokingly called "Huangling Two Remnants". Zhu Ziheng has burns on his face, and the people privately call him Zhu Scar, Liu Decai had chickenpox when he was a child, and he fell pockmarks on his face, so the name of Liu Mazi came.

Zhu Ziheng said this to Zhang Qingyun, of course, his intention was to imply that Zhang Qingyun's backyard was unstable, which seemed to be praise and depreciation. It seems that you can't simply look at Zhu Ziheng with the eyes of a hooligan ruffian. This person is very old and knows the laws of officialdom, but he is not a big man.

However, Zhang Qingyun listened to Zhu Ziheng's words very happily in his heart, he was afraid that Sang Zi would be ironclad, now since this is not the case, then there is an opportunity, this is the result he wants.

As soon as he was in a good mood, Zhang Qingyun became more comfortable talking and laughing, and took the initiative to make fun of Zhu Ziheng for being a hero in the green forest, which made Zhu Ziheng a little confused, and his face was a little unbearable.

In his impression, white-faced scholars like to engage in twists and turns, this secretary is good, he pokes his hidden illness as soon as he comes, and he makes fun of and jokes, as if the two have been old friends for many years.

For a while, he had a little good impression of Zhang Qingyun, this brother is a man, and he didn't bluff him when he said before, and he came single-handedly. And talking and laughing freely, it seems that Secretary Huang of the Provincial Party Committee is Sangzi's person in the end, and the people sent are all powerful corners.

Sangzi Wangshan Hotel is at the foot of the Yellow Mountains, adjacent to the Swill River, said to be a hotel, more like a mountain villa. A large courtyard, this building is built by reading power buildings. The leaders of the county party committee came to hold a banquet today, and the whole villa was very busy.

When he came to the banquet hall, Zhang Qingyun sat down as the chief, and the rest of the people were lined up on either side of him. Zhang Qingyun took a careful look at Liu Decai on the right, his face was really pitted, and his life was very dark, and there were indeed some problems with his image.

"Secretary Zhang, come, come! Introduce you to my mother-in-law! Zhang Qingyun was just about to strike up a few words with Liu Decai, when Zhu Ziheng led a woman in her forties forward and said with a smile.

The woman is half old, the charm still exists, and the dress is also just right, showing the maturity, and it makes people not feel demonic, but the lips are a little thinner, and it looks a little gloomy. Zhang Qingyun hurriedly got up and greeted the woman politely, but he felt a little strange in his heart, did this family also come to the welcome banquet?

"Secretary Zhang! Don't underestimate Mrs. Zhu, he is the owner of Wangjiang Hotel, County Magistrate Zhu is in politics, Mrs. Zhu is in business, the two are perfectly matched, the combination of the two back then is a good story of our Sangzi! Liu Decai said with a smile, his words dispelled Zhang Qingyun's doubts.

Everyone in the room was smiling, and the atmosphere seemed to be harmonious. Zhang Qingyun also casually echoed a few words, and didn't say anything more, this Mrs. Zhu is not simple, Zhu Ziheng is so open and honest with herself, it is obviously her idea. Give yourself a signal that he, Zhu Ziheng, is the head snake here.
