The gilded lights in the hall reflected on this man who was telling the surging heart, Tong Yuqing suddenly felt that he was not just the handsome, shrewd and capable man she saw from the surface, his inner world was much broader than she imagined, but she didn't know that it was the vast blue sky and sea, or the rolling mountains?

Bai Qiaoxuan saw that Tong Yuqing's eyes were mixed with admiration and pity, and then said: "I know what you are thinking, and I also know what you want to ask, I said that I will be honest with you and never break my word." In the past few years, I have traveled with my elders to the two worlds of Pudong and Puxi, and I can clearly realize that the livelihoods of the people in the two places are very different. Although the people of Pudong are not rich, they can at least be satisfied with food and clothing, and there are very few displaced people who have no jobs to work for. In contrast, the life of the people of Puxi is much more difficult. Not to mention the people who are often disturbed by wars on the border, it is not uncommon for people to beg along the streets in the golden capital at the feet of the Son of Heaven. In the final analysis, this is not the difference between the two places, but because although Pudong has foreign war, there is no internal strife, while Puxi has been trapped internally and externally for hundreds of years. War brings success or failure to those in power, and only pain to ordinary people. I always think that if one day I can be in power, I will definitely not start any war, I will go to the mountains, rivers, towns and villages under my control, I will only see the father and the son everywhere I go, hear the baby's cry, smell the fragrance of the cooking, and never allow the scene of my wife being separated and my family ruined to appear before my eyes again. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan said and smiled bitterly, "I know that what I say now is too unrealistic, and I will never take the initiative to fight for that position." The only thing I can think of and can do now is to support the Overseers. ”

Tong Yuqing knew that everything Bai Qiaoxuan said just now was from the bottom of her heart. Habitually, she has always had a hostile and hostile attitude towards Puxi all these years, and it is the first time to hear someone analyze the battle situation in Puxi so objectively. Tong Yuqing suddenly found that she had no way to respond to Bai Qiaoxuan's words, and she was even more in awe of Bai Qiaoxuan. After thinking about it for a while, she said, "It's late, you can go home with me, and I'll show you the information from the Financial Secretary?" ”

Bai Qiaoxuan responded and said yes, and didn't say anything more, because he knew that no matter how many words he said tonight, he couldn't fully win Tong Yuqing's trust, and he could only prove that what he said was true in the future.

As soon as Tong Yuqing wanted to order someone to clean up the snacks and fruits on the table, she remembered her own troubles again, and asked with a smile: "Hey, what do you like to eat?" ”

Bai Qiaoxuan looked at Tong Yuqing's delicate lips pursed because of pretending to be angry, and couldn't help but think of Tong Yuhao who had just left, looking like a sister and brother like this, and said with a smile: "I've always been very concerned about food, and it can be said that what you see is what I like to eat." ”

Facing Tong Yuqing's disbelieving eyes, Bai Qiaoxuan said: "What I said is true, and it is definitely not intentional deception. Well, if I really have a preference, I only avoid it, that is, I don't eat sour food. ”

"Don't eat sour food?" Tong Yuqing laughed and said: "It's the first time I've met someone who is as taboo about sour food as I am in so many years!" If we don't talk about those national events, we can still be friends. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan couldn't help laughing, "That makes sense!" Since I was a child, the elders in the family said that I was a picky eater when they saw that I didn't eat sour food, how did they know how uncomfortable it was for me to eat sour food once? I've finally found a soulmate! If someone forces me to eat sour food in the future, I can say that Miss Tong doesn't eat it either, do you dare to force her to eat it? ”

Tong Yuqing saw that he was acting decently, and he smiled and rolled back and forth, sweeping away his previous depressed and incomprehensible mood......

It has been more than a month since she took over the Financial Secretary, and Tong Yuqing finally realized the hardships of being a family, and finally understood why her father used to keep himself in the study all day long even if he was resting at home. But fortunately, all the hard work has paid off, even if the return is minimal, but the financial secretary has been operating normally for more than a month, and there has not been much turmoil because of my father's resignation.

But when it comes to waves, it was really not calm at the beginning of their tenure. Although they don't trust her and Bai Qiaoxuan, the two stinky children who have not dried up, to take over the financial department, they have always respected Tong Fengyi's decision, so they generally support their work. The problem is at the middle and low level of the department, and I don't know where the rumors came from, saying that Tong Fengyi's resignation was due to dissatisfaction with Qiu Zeyuan's arrangement for Bai Qiaoxuan to take up a post in the Finance Department, and deliberately snubbed Tong's people, so he deliberately closed the door and did not leave Qiu Zeyuan to embarrass Qiu Zeyuan. All of a sudden, the rumors spread in an uproar, causing panic and uncertainty in people's hearts, and things naturally went wrong at work. This error is reflected in the debriefing report. Bai Qiaoxuan wanted to quickly grasp the operation of the Financial Department through these reports, but after reading the report like waste paper, he could only frown. Tong Yuqing was angry and took a stack of waste paper to find someone, but she heard something she shouldn't have heard.

"Hey, what kind of madness do you say Miss Tong is doing, and she wants to report at this time? In the past, there was no such rule when the director was there, so what could she do here? Did she finish reading one copy per person? ”

"Who knows? In the past, the Tong family was the overseer's right-hand man, but now that the director has fallen out with the overseer, he doesn't know what else she is selling. Sooner or later, the financial secretary will have to change her surname to Bai, and Bai Gongzi hasn't said anything yet, so where will it be her turn? ”

……

After listening to these words, Tong Yuqing finally understood the reason why the debriefing report was "as slow as a sloth, as light as flowing water", and her anger calmed down a lot. She adjusted her breathing a little and was just about to speak, when she heard Bai Qiaoxuan's voice behind her, "Director Tong, the meeting materials you asked me to organize have been prepared, do you want to look at it now?" ”

What conference materials? Tong Yuqing looked at Bai Qiaoxuan in confusion, Bai Qiaoxuan blinked his eyes, and handed the document in his hand to Tong Yuqing, Tong Yuqing opened it and saw a row of powerful words: Don't be angry, just give grace and power during the meeting.

Tong Yuqing couldn't help but feel funny, and pretended to approve the document and wrote on the paper: Yes, Director Bai.

When she had finished writing, she turned back to look at the people who were chewing their tongues and said, "Let's all go back to work." ”

Bai Qiaoxuan said gently: "We should also go back." Tong Yuqing smiled well.

They distributed nearly 2,000 reports to their respective secretaries to screen them first, and selected only 200 valuable ones for Bai Qiaoxuan's purpose. Tong Yuqing also selected 50 of the 200 reports based on her experience in the past two years, and discussed with Bai Qiaoxuan about the financial secretary's issues related to the treasury, taxation, bills, and other aspects in recent years, and went to the field to investigate. Just analyzing the report, the two of them were busy for half a month, but fortunately, after half a month of early departure and late return, Bai Qiaoxuan was already familiar with the situation of the Financial Secretary.

That night, Bai Qiaoxuan put down the official document in his hand and stretched his waist vigorously, "It's finally finished!" ”

Tong Yuqing yawned and said, "Yes...... I can finally get a good night's sleep. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan glanced at her lightly, Tong Yuqing understood, and said, "I'll talk about big things when I wake up." Otherwise, I really don't have the energy to deal with those people. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan smiled, "It's okay, you need to make a careful layout to deal with them, and you can't make any mistakes, so let's discuss it tomorrow......"

Five days later, Tong Yuqing and Bai Qiaoxuan held a middle-level meeting at the Financial Secretary, Bai Qiaoxuan sang red face, Tong Yuqing sang white face, and co-starred in a play. Bai Qiaoxuan sang the praises of virtue and praised the leaders from top to bottom to the sky. Tong Yuqing insinuated and forced the little ghosts in the light and in the dark to appear.

After that, their eyes were firmly fixed on these dark ghosts who had been swept away, hoping to see them emotional and restless, not to mention scolding and crying, they didn't even have a trace of emotional ups and downs, as if nothing had happened and walked out of the venue.

Under normal circumstances, it is extremely shameful to lose face in front of so many people. Normal people should feel ashamed, even angry. But these people obviously don't care, and there is only one possibility, they already know about it in advance, and they don't worry about their future livelihood.

For Tong Yuqing and Bai Qiaoxuan, this is a good thing, but fortunately, they have been able to determine that the hidden stake they have been trying to track down has infiltrated the top of the Financial Secretary. Because they had only presented the list of ghosts at a high-level meeting, it meant that the only people who could be told in advance to appease these people could be from the top of the Financial Secretary. Excluding Tong Yuqing and Bai Qiaoxuan, there are only nine people left. Thinking of this, Tong Yuqing and Bai Qiaoxuan's hanging hearts settled down slightly.

Tong Yuqing said: "Everyone here, do you know why those people left just now? I think you should be aware that since the day Director Bai and I acted as Director, there has been a rumor circulating in the department. Those are the same people who first spread the rumor in the various departments. Who will hold the post of director is a matter of senior management, and it has nothing to do with you. Whether Director Bai and I are capable of taking on the big responsibilities or not doesn't need you to worry about it. Don't think that my previous leniency in the division will be an excuse for your presumptuousness. If I find out that someone is telling the truth, it will not be as simple as asking you to leave. ”

After Tong Yuqing vented his "anger", Bai Qiaoxuan hurriedly put on the posture of Corporal Lixian, "You are all the ministers of the humerus of the Financial Secretary, the predecessors of me and Director Tong, we have just taken over the Financial Secretary, and there are still many things to ask you about." In an eventful time, please join us in our efforts. With that, he stood up and bowed to everyone......

After the meeting ended, Bai Qiaoxuan returned to the office first, deploying the monitoring of the nine high-level officials. Tong Yuqing came back after packing up the meeting documents and saw Bai Qiaoxuan working with her eyebrows, with a slight smile on her lips, but unfortunately she didn't notice it herself.

Bai Qiaoxuan heard the sound and looked at the door alertly, and saw that it was Tong Yuqing who breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Yuqing, you came back just in time, let's discuss it......" said and motioned Tong Yuqing to enter the house and close the door.

Tong Yuqing closed the door with her hand and said with a smile: "Guess what I heard on the way back just now?" ”

Bai Qiaoxuan saw that she was so excited that she couldn't help herself, and asked, "Do you know any clues?" ”

Tong Yuqing patted the desk excitedly, "That's right! I vaguely heard a man who had been fired talking to his accomplices, Minister Zhou's benevolence and righteousness. There is only one Minister Zhou in the middle and senior management of the department. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan couldn't help frowning and thinking deeply when he heard Tong Yuqing's words, "Yuqing, where did you listen to who said what?" Tell me in detail. ”

Tong Yuqing saw that Bai Qiaoxuan was not relieved at all, and asked, "Is there any problem?" I overheard it while I was walking, and there were more than a dozen people who were expelled, and they all got together, and I didn't notice who said it. I suddenly heard them say that Minister Zhou didn't dare to hesitate when he walked for fear of startling the snake, and I didn't hear what they said specifically. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan poured a glass of water for Tong Yuqing, and then held her shoulders and asked her to sit down slowly, "Yuqing, don't worry, think slowly, I'm sure you can remember." ”

Tong Yuqing saw that Bai Qiaoxuan was very solemn, and unconsciously took a sip of water, admonishing herself to close her eyes and concentrate and think about it carefully......
