After listening to Chen Zikun's praise, Liu Xiaoyong just smiled indifferently: "It is the responsibility of the humble duty to share the worries and solve problems for Chief Chen, and it is the obligation of the Jiangdong fathers and elders to minimize the loss and bad impact." ”

Chen Zikun said: "With your talents, the deputy head of the district is inevitably condescending, and you are not interested in serving as the director of the police department?" ”

Liu Xiaoyong's pupils contracted suddenly, then stood up, and said calmly: "Thank you for the kindness of the chief, I can't give up my brothers, and the position of the police chief is sensitive, I'm afraid that my identity will cause criticism." ”

Needless to say, judging from Liu Ting's relationship, Liu Xiaoyong is also Chen Zikun's brother-in-law, and letting his brother-in-law be the police chief, naturally there is a suspicion of cronyism, Chen Zikun thought about it and dispelled this idea, and said: "Then you will continue to stay in the army, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will be reorganized into a traffic policeman, and you will be a detachment leader." ”

"Yes!" This time, Liu Xiaoyong did not refuse.

Chen Zikun asked the orderly to call Shuangxi in, and said, "You two don't know each other if you don't fight, shake hands." ”

Shuangxi shook hands with Liu Xiaoyong, full of shame: "Thank you for saving your life." ”

Liu Xiaoyong said: "Wherever you are, you are your own people." ”

Chen Zikun said: "Xiaoyong, go down first, I have something to say to Shuangxi." ”

Liu Xiaoyong saluted, exited the office, and knelt down with a double happiness: "Dashuai, I'm sorry for you." ”

Chen Zikun said: "If it weren't for the courage to help you deal with the aftermath and make the woman's parents think through, everyone acted in such a play today, you are sure of this gun, and you have been wronged, people in their thirties have no daughter-in-law, so it's not light, it's that I didn't arrange it." ”

Shuangxi said: "I was impulsive, made a big mistake, and caused trouble for the big handsome." ”

Chen Zikun said: "I have checked everything clearly, the female student is good, since she has ruined the reputation of others, she will be responsible for it to the end, you don't want to be in Beitai, go back to the provincial capital, and work by my side." ”

……

There was no danger to settle the matter of Shuangxi's rape of the people's girl, and the headache came, and a thick stack of documents was sent to Chen Zikun's desk, all of which were written by his subordinates, or repentance and review, or pleading, or justification, Chen Zikun didn't have the heart to ask one by one, and handed over all the documents to Liu Ting to deal with.

After all, Chen Zikun's foundation is in these old subordinates, forcing them to a dead end, scattering in two, everyone is done, everything is done in moderation, shooting a few people with great anger, spitting out the stolen money, so that the people have a way to live and have a hope, it's almost over.

There is another troublesome matter, Ou Guangyan, the provincial governor appointed by the central government, lives in a hotel and cannot perform his duties, and he will be fine for ten days and half a month, but it will not work to resist all the time, after all, he cannot turn his face with the central government now, and it will not be good if he is impeached by the Supervision Yuan because of this.

Therefore, Chen Zikun decided to retreat and divide a little energy to deal with Ou Guangyan.

Central Hotel, private room on the third floor, Ou Guangyan is at a loss, recently the newspaper sang praises to Chen Zikun, a voice of praise, what a strong man broke his wrist, his sleeves were clean and upright, ** pioneer, free leader, prestige is in full swing, he is the chairman of the province, like a rat nesting in the hostel, except for a group of down-and-out literati, no one cares.

Suddenly there was a sound of stairs, and then the door opened, and with a cold wind, Chen Zikun walked in, wearing a red and black cloak, majestic, his shoulders moved, the cloak slipped off, and the orderly quickly took it, and the handsome movements were all gone.

Ou Guangyan's smile was more ugly than crying: "I didn't know that Chief Chen was coming, and he was disappointed." ”

Chen Zikun laughed heartily: "You and I have been friends for more than ten years, what are you polite, the relationship between the two of us is the same as that of brothers." ”

Ou Guangyan secretly scolded you for being really able to pretend, but he was polite: "Chief Chen is a pillar of the country, how dare Ou dare to climb high, come here, look at the seat and make tea." ”

Chen Zikun said: "District governor, you are too polite, don't bother, the recent decoration of the provincial government building, you also know, the puppet government decoration, tattered furniture or something have to be thrown away and restarted, so as not to be unlucky, during the construction of the miasma, dusty people, afraid of affecting your health, I didn't dare to let you go to the office, it's my fault, my fault." ”

Ou Guangyan laughed dryly, and his heart went up and down, Chen Zikun This is a weasel to give a New Year's greeting to a chicken, and he is not well-intentioned.

Chen Zikun didn't give him time to think about it, so he pulled it and left: "District chairman, go, I'll take you to see your office." ”

A group of orderly soldiers couldn't help but say, moved the things in the room and left, went downstairs to the car, and went straight to the provincial government building.

The red carpet was spread out at the entrance of the building, the military band set up a formation, beating gongs and drums to welcome, Ou Guangyan said that he would be safe if he came, and he could not lose face in front of the public, so he got out of the car with his clothes dressed.

Chen Zikun was dressed in a military uniform, half a position ahead of him, and said with a smile: "District chairman, please come here." ”

Ou Guangyan is of medium stature, with a big belly, wearing a black Mao suit, following behind the tall Chen Zikun, dwarfed by it, and looking extremely obscene, he tried his best to make a majestic appearance, but the gap in aura was too big, and the tiger could not become an anti-dog.

The office of the provincial chairman has long been prepared, the floor is covered with a thick imported carpet, the portrait of the former prime minister Mr. Zhongshan is hung on the wall, the national flag and the party flag are hung on both sides, and a framed couplet is the handwriting of Mr. Yu Youren: "The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard." ”

The mahogany desk is very large, and there are three telephones on it, one of which is a red long-distance carrier telephone that can go directly to Chongqing, which is a sign of power.

Although he was the director of the provincial party department more than ten years ago, the party-state party cadres have always been taken seriously, compared with the provincial chairman, it is far behind, and it has taken 15 years to take this step, which is not easy.

At this moment, he made up his mind, even if it was a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, he would sit on it and taste it.

Sitting on the throne of the provincial chairman, the pores of Ou Guangyan's whole body were stretched, as if he was driving through the clouds, and his mood was very refreshing, and he was much more pleasing to the eyes when he looked at Chen Zikun.

"I'll be the east tonight, let's get together." Ou Guangyan said with a smile.

Chen Zikun said: "I must accompany you, but let's be busy with business first." As he spoke, he took out a stack of official documents and handed them over, Ou Guangyan took a look, and his face suddenly changed, these are all official documents appointing mayors and county magistrates, and they need to be printed by themselves before they can take effect, it turns out that Chen sells this medicine in his gourd.

"Let's talk about this." Ou Guangyan said perfunctorily, these people must be Chen Zikun's henchmen, they all became mayors and county magistrates, and his provincial chairman was hollowed out, and he was still making a fart, which is not okay.

Chen Zikun said: "District chairman, the appointment of a new local governor is urgently needed by the people, and time is running out. ”

Ou Guangyan smiled and groaned: "Put me here first, I'll watch it." ”

Chen Zikun said: "Then put the district chairman here first, and see you at night." ”

After saying that, he left, but he didn't go crazy on the spot, Ou Guangyan was a little puzzled, Chen Zikun was so easy to deal with?

He first enjoyed the feeling of the provincial chairman, called Chongqing by special telephone, and reported to Chen Lifu, who encouraged him to work hard and have a bright future in the future.

He didn't know that when he was on the phone, in a secret room of the telephone bureau, the wire recorder automatically turned on to record the conversation between the two sides.

Ou Guangyan was full of ambition, shook the leather swivel chair twice, felt very good, and rang the bell to call the secretary over: "Where is Jinbao?" ”

The secretary said, "The young master has been busy with military affairs recently......"

Ou Guangyan's face sank: "Find him." ”

What kind of virtue does his son have, Ou Guangyan knows very well, eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling, and smoking all five drugs, if it weren't for being a father's cover, he would have caused trouble a long time ago.

Sure enough, an hour later, the secretary came in a hurry and said, "Chairman, it's not good, the young master has been arrested by the military police." ”

"What charges?"

"Kill!"

"What the hell is going on?"

"In the brothel, he was jealous of people, shot and killed, and when the law enforcement team passed by, he detained people."

Ou Guangyan collapsed in his chair, with his political wisdom, it was impossible for him to think of why his son was arrested at this juncture, it must be Chen Zikun's ghost, and his unangry son was trapped.

"Bring the Great Seal." Ou Guangyanqiang cheered up, personally stamped the big seal on the letter of appointment sent by Chen Zikun, signed his name, and asked the secretary to send it to Chen Zikun.

Chen Zikun was also very happy, and in less than half an hour, he asked the gendarmerie to send Ou Jinbao here, fortunately, he was not beaten, but he was scared.

"Dad, Jiangdong is not a good place, let's go, go back to Chongqing." Ou Jinbao was really frightened, the station of the gendarmerie used to be the office of the Japanese special high school, and there were so many torture instruments in the dungeon, and the smell of blood lingered for many years, which made him open his eyes.

Ou Guangyan said: "Even if it's the Longtan Tiger's Den, it has to hold on." ”

……

At the Fenglin Road Residence, Chen Zikun issued letters of appointment to more than a dozen mayors and county magistrates, all of whom were personally selected by him to have both ability and political integrity, all of whom had a college degree or above, and an average age of early 40 years old.

Although the letter of appointment is signed by the provincial chairman's seal and Ou Guangyan, everyone knows that this official position was given by Chen Zikun, and everyone tacitly understands this.

Chen Zikun said: "Everyone, why I chose you to hold important positions, is because you are all educated and responsible intellectuals, known as virtuous among the people, the War of Resistance has been won, the country is moving towards the best prosperity and strength, the courage on your shoulders is not light, I hope you remember that although you are elected by me, you do not have to be responsible for me, but for the local people." ”

There was a burst of applause, and everyone nodded their heads again and again, full of approval.

Chen Zikun said: "Maybe you have noticed, there is still a mayor of Beitai, so let's invite the new mayor of Beitai, Mr. Xiao Lang, to come to power." ”

Xiao Lang was wearing a half-worn suit, thin on a desert island, with bright eyes, arching his hands and smiling kindly.

He had served as a pseudo-mayor for a period of time, which was an extremely disgraceful experience, so everyone looked at him a little strangely.

Chen Zikun said: "I know your confusion, Mayor Xiao was forced to take a false position for the safety of thousands of people's lives and property, some people may say, why didn't he die to serve the country, I want to say, sometimes, it takes more courage to live than to die." ”

After a moment of silence, there was a round of applause.
