"Director, the room here is so bad, I gave the waitress ten yuan, and she told me that the county party committee guest house is the best here. The facilities there are all copied from the hotels in the city. Zhang Guosheng went to go through the formalities and came back, and said this. Wang Guohua was standing at the door of the hotel at this time, on a dilapidated asphalt road.

Zhang Guosheng is not a fart of the leader, the room in this hotel does not even have a bathroom, and he has to go to a washing room with zero ding, and there is a part-time toilet in it, and Zhang Guosheng decided to persuade the leader to abandon this place at that time.

Director Wang is as good as a stream, and it seems that he is not a person who can endure hardships now. The hardships of youth are already a distant thing. "Let's go, do you know the way?"

"Follow this road for a while, turn right at the intersection, and after two hundred meters, you can see the Chinese New Year's Eve Courtyard of the county party committee and county government, and fifty meters ahead." Zhang Guosheng asked very clearly, and drove forward skillfully.

The street lights on both sides of the street were dim, and with the faint light, Director Wang had a taste of the style of this poverty-stricken county in the province. The buildings on both sides of the road don't look very neat, with different heights, and there is no trace of regularity. Some of the buildings on Chinese New Year's Eve are old, and some of them look relatively new for a long time before you can see one.

"The county party committee and the county government have arrived." Zhang Guosheng reminded him, Wang Guohua signaled to stop, and came down to take a look. The outer wall of the Chinese New Year's Eve courtyard is not very high, made of green bricks, and the outer wall is not near the Chinese New Year's Eve Gate, and the traces of Ban Barge Detachment can be seen from a distance. Looking at the courtyard, it doesn't seem to be very Chinese New Year's Eve, and there is a lamp with wattage of Chinese New Year's Eve at the door of the office building, and you can see a little bit of the office building.

It is also a building that looks like it was from the past, and if you pay a little attention, the top floor that you can see seems to have been added later, and the color is newer than the two floors below.

Director Wang didn't stay long, looked at it for a while, and then got in the car and continued to move forward. Compared with the dilapidated Chinese New Year's Eve courtyard of the county party committee and county government, the door of the guest house looks much more prosperous. At the door, a one-person Chinese New Year's Eve light box is erected, illuminating the words accommodation, eating, and receiving wedding banquets.

Director Wang's car is a very ordinary Mazda, but there are not many people who come to stay in this county by car. Either a cadre or a business boss. Before Director Wang got out of the car, the security guard at the door came over to greet him warmly.

"Boss, lodging or eating?" "Eat and stay, we have two of the best rooms." Zhang Guosheng came down to speak, Wang Guohua thought about it and didn't get out of the car.

The security guard listened and said: "The best room is in the courtyard at the back, and it is usually the reception leader." If you want to live, it is estimated that it is a bit unreasonable. Zhang Guosheng looked impatient, handed over a ten-yuan bill and said, "It's hard work, go and ask." ”

The security guard who took the money had a smile on his face, and said with a busy smile: "Wait a minute, I'll be back soon." ”

Zhang Guosheng came over and opened the car door, and Wang Guohua slowly got out of the car and looked at the courtyard of this guest house. In front of you looks like an ordinary roadside hotel, next to it is a three-story building, and in the back you can see a small building that is not very tall.

Soon the security guard returned, followed by a young woman.

"Do the two bosses want to live in the VIP building? First, a room is one hundred and five, and the restaurant offers breakfast. ”

Wang Guohua said without a face behind his back, Zhang Guohua stepped forward and said, "It's okay if the car is parked outside, right?" The security guard immediately smiled: "You can also park in the yard behind." ”

Wang Guohua said: "Lead the way in front." ", strolling forward, looking like a Chinese New Year's Eve boss.

The young woman led the way, and after the security guard watched them leave, he sighed and said, "Lost, I knew that Ah Hua would spend 200 yuan a night." ”

The so-called VIP building, which looks very ordinary on the outside, has a two-story building in the middle of a courtyard at the back. There were several cars parked in the yard, including an Audi. Wang Guohua remembered that when he came all the way, the most common thing on the street on Chinese New Year's Eve was not cars, but some three-wheeled, and the sound of manpower and motor vehicles was quite ugly.

Zhang Guosheng went to go through the formalities, and after the incident, the young woman issued a receipt, and told Zhang Guosheng: "You live here, don't run around at night." Otherwise, I will be disadvantaged by the leader. I opened two rooms, and when I went in, I saw that the facilities were okay and cleaned quite clean. Maybe this has something to do with the fact that the leader often comes to live. The restaurant downstairs can be ordered, Director Wang and Zhang Guosheng went downstairs to order a few dishes casually, and they didn't ask for drinks to eat and go back to take a shower and rest.

After a day's ride, Wang Guohua was also tired and lay down and fell asleep after taking a bath. This sleep is good, and I didn't get up until dawn on Chinese New Year's Eve, which was the result of Zhang Guohua knocking on the door.

Looking at the watch in my hand, it was already half past eight in the morning. After a freshen up, looking at this yard is a different scene from looking at it at night. The whole courtyard is actually surrounded by a green grove, and in front of each room downstairs is a cloister, and in front of the cloister is a square flower pond five or six meters away.

In the morning, the yard was unusually quiet, and occasionally a few people could be seen coming out to get into the car and drive out in a hurry. The Audi I saw when I parked the car was no longer there, and there were only Wang Guohua's car and another Poussin that looked a little old in the yard. Zhang Guosheng was checking out, and Wang Guohua asked casually: "Who owns this car?" The young woman glanced at it and said with a smile: "County Magistrate Liu, I heard that I have a stomach problem, and I have been recuperating for the past two days." ”

Just as he was doing, a man came out in a hurry and kept saying to the guy behind him, "What's the matter?" Didn't I tell? I'm in a hurry today, so you must have woken me up earlier? There is also a band-aid on the back of the man's hand, which is quite conspicuous. The young man behind him explained in a low voice: "County magistrate, let's go to the hospital first, okay, I'm going to have a gastroscopy today." ”

The man looked at the watch in his hand and said, "I don't have time, let's go again tomorrow." Let's go to the city first, the end of the year is approaching, and see if we can get a little more relief money. The man hurried to the courtyard, and the man chased after him and shouted: "County magistrate, eat morning tea first...... Puji had already opened the yard, Zhang Guosheng also checked out to leave, Wang Guohua asked the young woman very casually: "That is the county magistrate Liu just now?" Looks busy. ”

The young woman smiled and said, "Yes, that's the county magistrate." But what's the use of him being busy? We have changed three county magistrates here in three years, and the poor ones are still just as poor. Listen to my husband, the county magistrate's level of governance is to see how much relief money he can get from the city. ”

This young woman is quite colorful, Wang Guohua said in his heart that she should be the wife of a certain leader in the county. So he smiled and said, "Sister Chinese New Year's Eve's husband must be the leader of the county." The young woman smiled a little embarrassedly: "What leader" is the deputy director of the office. I don't see that I don't even have a formal establishment, "to work hard here." After Wang Guohua and Zhang Guosheng came out and walked away, the young woman came to the door, handed the security guard twenty yuan and said, "Yes! The security guard looked at the money in his hand, and said a little dissatisfied: "Why is it only twenty yuan?" The room rate is obviously ....... ”

"Okay, don't you know the long stream?" , handed the security guard another ten dollars, turned and left.

The security guard watched her walk away, spat hard, and whispered, "Lose, greedy for money." ”

The mountain is high and the road is far away, and it is not far from the county seat" is a loess road. Wang Guohua's destination is Longqiao Town, and field trips are Wang Guohua's style of doing things, so this trip must go. Of course, the main thing is to see Snow Lotus, and then it is good to suppress this girl and deter some indiscriminate outstretched hands.

All the way through the smoke and dust, Zhang Guosheng's driving skills seem to be difficult to control this journey. When Director Wang saw this, he was replaced, and Zhang Guosheng was very embarrassed. After the substitution, the car will be much more stable to drive" Zhang Guosheng patted: "The director's car is good." Wang Guohua smiled when he heard this: "There is also such a road in my hometown, and I used to secretly drive other people's agricultural vehicles, and I almost opened a ditch." Two hours later, the ancient town long bridge finally appeared in front of you. Perhaps due to inertia, Director Wang paid attention to the surrounding environment when he came all the way, and found that the mountain forest vegetation in this area was still quite well cared for, "Unlike when I first entered Linwang County, the nearby mountains were all bald or low shrubs.

If this place is beautiful, it is not too much. The car entered the ancient town, Director Wang found a place to park the car, got down and walked casually, "The town that is not Chinese New Year's Eve will be all over in a while, less than half an hour."

The town is indeed not Chinese New Year's Eve, the roads are all bluestone floors, and the buildings on both sides look quite old. The town is between the mountains, and it seems that the previous vegetation and some old buildings in Fengzhen can survive for a reason.

Finally came to the destination "Longbridge Town Middle School." The school looks like it's not Chinese New Year's Eve, and there are four rows of brick houses. The house looks a bit dilapidated, with a dirt playground in the middle. At the end of class, "the playground was very lively, and when Director Wang came", I saw Xuelian wearing a red jacket at first sight, playing skipping rope with a group of girls.

At such a glance, Wang Guohua had a strong impression. It seems that this girl can always laugh so innocently and sincerely. From her face, there were very few gray tools to be seen.

Kindness, optimism, sincerity. Director Wang's mind flashed with these kinds of words.

Director Wang seems to be very attractive wherever he goes. As soon as he walked to the edge of the playground, a middle-aged man who looked a little hunchbacked as a teacher came over.

"Who is this comrade?" This teacher's temples are a little white in the middle, a blue coat that is washed and a little whitish, and a pair of black pants are a little wrinkled. At the foot is a pair of liberation shoes, which are also washed and almost no green.

"Teacher Xuelian, I've found it." Director Wang smiled kindly and took the initiative to stretch out his hand. A teacher, such a teacher, can always bring back some memories of his youth.

"It's the boss from the city on Chinese New Year's Eve, welcome welcome, I'll call Xuelian over." After the man shook hands warmly with Director Wang, he walked over to greet Xuelian with a smile. Looking at him talking to Xue Lian from a distance, when Xue Lian looked over here, Director Wang raised his hand and shook it.

Xue Lian quickly ran over, panting and smiling: "Director Wang, you came so quickly, I thought I wouldn't be able to arrive in two days." If another leader hears this, it is estimated that his stomach hurts. But Director Wang wouldn't, and even smiled.

"It's really embarrassing to have something to worry about. There's nothing to be delayed, is there? Wang Guohua asked with a smile, Xue Lian would have reacted a little that what she said just now was not quite right, and smiled embarrassedly: "No, I originally planned to go to the city tomorrow, and after meeting with you, I will go to the Xiantuanfeng Committee, and go to the county after completing the relevant procedures." I didn't expect you to come so quickly, and I saved money on the car. ”

Wang Guohua glanced at the school and said, "I hope the school isn't here, right?" "Well, it's okay here, the old house only needs to spend tens of thousands of dollars to renovate. I'm planning to build a new school building over there, so that in another year at most, the children will be able to attend classes in the new school building. There are several other townships, I have seen them, and the situation is also very unexpected. There are four schools under Longqiao Town, all of which are in the mountains. I also want to build a hope school in the center of these schools, and combine all four schools, I can do too little, that is, hope to build a school, many children have to go a long way to school. Xuelian looked into the depths of the Chinese New Year's Eve Mountain with her eyes, her expression was a little melancholy, and her voice became more and more.

"Ready, let's go to the city." Wang Guohua smiled and felt heavy in his heart. The girl's words and deeds "made Director Wang feel a different kind of pressure."

When the cable was untied and on the road, a bunch of children were sent to the bridge, and many children were shouting: "Teacher Xuelian, come back early." ”

Director Wang, who was driving, saw the tears in Xuelian's eyes flashing, and waved his hand at the children.

When Liu Bin, the magistrate of Linwang County, was still on the road, "there was another pain in my stomach." Liu Bin, who endured the pain, received Hotline from the county, and the content was Director Wang of the Provincial Party Committee's Supervision Office, who may have reached Linwang County. Liu Bin, who was halfway through, had to let the driver lose his head, and the inexhaustible pain in his stomach made Chinese New Year's Eve beads of sweat appear on Liu Bin's forehead.

The news of Director Wang's coming down came from a Hotline from the Provincial Youth League Committee to the Youth League Municipal Committee, "The Youth League Municipal Committee attached great importance to this and immediately reported to Yang Guomin, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee." For Mr. Yang, this is not really good news. The reason is very simple, the situation in Beishan City, from the perspective of the secretary of the municipal party committee, "it is quite not optimistic." When he was able to become secretary, Governor Duan still had high hopes for him, hoping that he would be able to make achievements in economic construction.

After Yang Guomin took office, he really hoped to make some achievements, but there was a Chinese New Year's Eve surprise in the work ideas of the municipal government. The mayor's proposition is to grasp urban construction and Chinese New Year's Eve projects. Yang Guomin spent time in Jiangdong City" and naturally vetoed this set of outdated tools. The two are now a stalemate, and Yang Guomin, an outsider, has not been able to gain decisive control for the time being.

When it comes to engaging in the economy, Yang Guomin still admires Wang Guohua quite a lot, "This son is indeed a good hand." As the mayor of the Red Shirt District, Yang Guomin was naturally highly concerned about the situation in the Red Shirt District, and the completion of the transformation of the property structure in the Red Shirt District was also witnessed by Yang Guomin. Yang Guomin has also made some summaries of the successful experience of the Red Decay District, and hopes to replicate it in Beishan City.

Admiration is admiration, Yang Guomin is still full of police slowness for Director Wang's arrival. Don't poke me out of a basket that I can't clean up, this guy. Picking up Hotline, Yang Guomin specially told the Public Security Bureau that he must find Director Wang's trace as soon as possible.

When Yang Guomin issued the instructions, Director Wang had already passed the county seat and was coming to the city. Halfway down the road, there was a Poussin parked on the side of the road, and a young man stood on the side of the car, waving vigorously.

Wang Guohua hurriedly stopped, came down and looked at the grass on the side of the road, Liu Bin was sitting on the ground with a painful face, with bloodshot on the corner of his mouth and some vomit on the ground. It is not difficult to see some blood clots that have been brewed with the same color as tea leaves.

"Comrade, this is our county magistrate Liu, who is ill and must be sent to the hospital in the city immediately, the car is broken down again, can you help and assist?" The young man was very anxious to ask, Wang Guohua just glanced at it and said to Zhang Guosheng: "Assist, get people into the car." The road from the county to the city is still easy to walk, Director Wang's driving skills have been fully explained, and it normally takes two hours to travel, and one time to rush to the central hospital. After working for a long time, Liu Bin was placed for examination, and it was preliminarily determined that it was stomach bleeding and he had to undergo surgery immediately.

The hospital asked the guy to pay the fee immediately, but the guy didn't have much money on him, so he quickly said something good and told the hospital that this was the county magistrate. Thanks to Liu Bin with his work permit, the hospital agreed to perform the operation immediately without paying the money after showing it.

Liu Bin sent it to the rescue, the guy played Hotline at the door, Wang Guohua and others quietly left when they saw this, and it was already half past twelve when they returned outside. "County Magistrate Liu is a good person, and his illness is tired." , Xue Lian came to say this, Director Wang frowned when he heard it, and said: "If you don't inquire about the visit, you won't have the right to speak, how do you know that he is tired and sick?" Xue Lian said: "I have been in the county for almost two years, and the villagers are all good to County Magistrate Liu." Although the county magistrate Liu came infrequently, the villagers could often see him go to the countryside, unlike the previous county magistrate, who might not be able to go to the countryside once a year. "Is it a good county magistrate to go to the countryside often?" If you can't turn the economic situation in the county around, you won't be able to be a qualified county magistrate. Director Wang felt that it was necessary to correct Comrade Xuelian's view of people and things, the diligent old scalper was outdated, and if he didn't lead the masses to get rich, he couldn't be regarded as a good leader. This is Director Wang's standard.

Xue Lian didn't dare to agree with Director Wang's words, but she didn't veto it fiercely, but muttered in a low voice: "I haven't been a county magistrate, how do you know that people haven't done it?" Lin Wang is a poor county, and he eats relief money every year, and County Magistrate Liu ....... ”

The more he spoke, Wang Guohua couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, but he still smiled: "How do you know that I haven't worked in a poor mountainous area?" Frankly, I have not only worked in poor counties, but also done quite well. Also, my hometown is also a poverty-stricken county, in fact, it is not much better than Linwang County, and I am also a child of a poor family. ”
