On that day, someone summoned a few comrades-in-arms who had enlisted in the same year to gather and informed Wang Changnian to participate, Wang Changnian was in a hurry at home, and he had recently lacked oil and water in his stomach, so he happily agreed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

When Wang Changnian retired, although the new director repeatedly said that he wanted to ensure that the old director used the car, Wang Changnian still did not plan to ask the bureau for a car in the future. Besides, the bus is not allowed to be used for private purposes now, and if you open your mouth, isn't it embarrassing for others!

Wang Changnian walked out of the camp gate, stood on the side of the road, raised his hand, and made a gesture to the traffic.

A taxi pulled over to the side of the road.

"How much does it cost to get to the Drum Tower?" Wang Changnian saw the taxi driver roll down the window glass and bent down to ask.

"Let's get in the car first!" The driver motioned for him to open the front door.

After Wang Changnian got on the bus, he thought to himself, let me get in the car first, and then I will talk about it, I am not unfamiliar with the route in Beijing, and I will not do it if I ask for more money for going around in circles.

"What does the master do, the first time you take a taxi?" The driver grasped the steering wheel in his hand, glanced at Wang Changnian, and asked him.

"I'm a retired old man, how do you know I'm taking a taxi for the first time?" Wang Changnian asked the driver suspiciously.

The driver didn't answer, and a sneer tugged at the corners of his mouth.

The driver's attitude made Wang Changnian feel unhappy, and he said in his heart: "What's wrong with the retired old man?" The money in the pockets of retired old men and incumbent cadres is the same as RMB! ”

When he got out of the car, the driver handed Wang Changnian a small printed note and said, "Take this well, a total of twenty-four yuan." ”

Wang Changnian took out two banknotes from his pocket and said generously to the driver: "This is thirty yuan, don't look for it." ”

The driver called out to Wang Changnian, who was about to get out of the car, and said: "Don't be like this, it's not easy for the old comrade to get a pension, this is the six yuan I found for you." ”

Cui Lanping came back from her son's house yesterday to pick up a change of clothes, and after listening to Wang Changnian talk about it, she said to him with a smile: "You are also used to taking public cars, and taxis are charged according to the mileage at the end, so how can you ask the price if you don't drive." ”

"That's what you say, I'm not right." Wang Changnian scratched his head, and said angrily, "Even if he asks the wrong word, he shouldn't have that attitude towards me!" Anyway, I don't take a taxi anymore anyway, it's one thing whether the driver's attitude is good or bad, and when I see the iron fence on the car, I feel like I'm in a cage. ”

After a long time of blowing the trumpet, Liu Yicheng returned home.

He turned on the ceiling light in the living room, sat on the sofa tiredly, looked around the deserted room, and began to complain to Zhuo Yuying in his heart: "People in their fifties, they still drive cars around all day long, go to Baoding today, go to Shijiazhuang tomorrow, don't care about home, what's the use of making so much money------

The phone rang, Liu Yicheng picked up the phone, and Zhuo Yuying's sharp voice pushed a stream of air to hit his eardrums: "No one answered the phone at home, and your mobile phone won't turn on, I thought you wouldn't go home today!" ”

"Where will I go if I don't go home? can be like you, every day without falling into the nest, like a hen who loses eggs. Liu Yicheng's stomach of grievances is nowhere to vent, so there is no good word to say.

"What's wrong with you today, have you taken gunpowder!" Zhuo Yuying was like a machine gun, first came a burst shot, and then a burst of fire, "The child is not at home, the two of us are doing our own business, do you want me to stay at home as a housewife, and cook food and drink for you every day?" If that's okay, the girl is studying abroad, and you are responsible for the cost of hundreds of thousands of yuan a year? ”

Liu Yicheng was short of breath, and then realized that it was not the right time for his grievances to vent, and then said in a soothing tone: "I'm sorry, I encountered something unpleasant in the office, and I was unhappy, when will you come back?" ”

"I just arrived in Tianjin from Baoding now, and I came here to discuss a business, and I can go back the day after tomorrow. If you want to open up a little bit when you encounter something, you don't care about so many idle things, and you will be angry when you are sick, and a person will always sulk, and it will be you who will suffer in the future. ”

Liu Yicheng snorted absentmindedly twice, and said some words to Zhuo Yuying to pay attention to safety, and then put down the phone, he didn't have the heart to cook and eat, he sat on the sofa alone, smoking cigarettes one after another.

This afternoon, Vice Minister Jin personally brought the new deputy director, a small man surnamed Song, who was not amazing, to report to the bureau, and when introducing his situation, the minister used a large number of eulogies such as "high level of writing, strong coordination ability, advancing with the times, and forging ahead." As for the division of labor, Vice Minister Jin said that the party committee of the ministry had made it clear and asked him to assist Liu Yicheng in carrying out the overall work.

After Vice Minister Jin and Deputy Director Song left, Liu Yicheng heard the discussions of other comrades in the bureau and also felt their dissatisfaction.

Before getting off work, Liu Yicheng came to Vice Minister Jin's office, and he did not hide his views: "Deputy Director Song has taken up a post in the bureau, and everyone has some feedback, and I think that such an arrangement from above has dampened the enthusiasm of Deputy Director Lin and several old assistants." ”

Vice Minister Jin has been Liu Yicheng's leader for many years, he understands and will not blame the straightforwardness of his old subordinates, poured Liu Yicheng a glass of water, and said with a smile: "I understand you very well, but the relevant leaders above have made it clear that Deputy Director Song should be cultivated as a seedling of leading cadres, whether it is you or me, we must understand the intention of the chief, and do a good job in the ideological work of the masses around the leader's intention." ”

"The masses should understand the intentions of the chief, and the chief should also respect the opinions of the masses. Besides, your evaluation of Deputy Director Song today is also watery. ”

"Can the seedlings survive without water?" Deputy Minister Kim told an inopportune joke to his old subordinates. "The opinions of the masses can only be used as a reference for the selection and use of cadres, otherwise what else do the cadre departments do? What is the party committee for? ”

Liu Yicheng didn't smile, his face was still cloudy: "My comrades and I in the bureau know a little bit about Deputy Director Song's situation, he is very smart, but his cleverness is not used in work." ”

Liu Yicheng paused here when he spoke, he couldn't say some things, he heard someone say that Deputy Director Song was very professional in pulling relations, and if the person who pulled the relationship was given a technical level, he must be a senior title. Some people even interpret some of the things he has done, saying that he is a person who is particularly good at speaking: "Chief, you are much older - I am talking about you being more sophisticated", "Chief, you are talking '' - I mean incisive words", "Chief, you are talking 'nonsense' - you are talking from the bottom of your heart"; Some people also said that he was particularly good at running relationships: "Just six months after the Spring Festival, I came to pay a greeting to the chief for his old age", "In six months, the Spring Festival will be celebrated, and I will come to pay a greeting to the chief for an early year." ”

Vice Minister Jin smiled, sighed and said, "I have worked in the agency for many years, and the most worrying thing is not that I am busy with work or heavy tasks, but that some relationships are difficult to handle. Sometimes if you want to get something done, you have to balance the interests of all parties first. Even sometimes I have to say something against my will, do something against my will, I can't laugh when I'm happy, I can't cry when I'm sad, this is the most uncomfortable. We've worked together for many years and we know each other, what do you have to say to me and who do I go to? ”

"If people worry too much, a lot of things are hard to say. No one is a saint, no one is without shortcomings, and if there are shortcomings, why can't mistakes be said? What if someone else says it? It's a big deal, I don't want this black gauze hat on my head. Liu Yicheng was still angry.

"Anyone has flaws, except for the immediate boss, as long as he leads you, he is always a perfect person, his words are instructions, and you must carry them out. Of course, if you don't even care about the black gauze hat, then there is nothing that cannot be said, there is nothing that cannot be done, the key is that we still want this hat, and we have to wear it to work.

When Vice Minister Jin said this, he looked helpless.
