In November, Wu Dao was seconded to the county's information department. On the day he left, Hu Xueshan said to him:

"Xiao Wu, you have no work experience, when you get to the county, talk less and do more. Also, don't worry about eating, the county has its own canteen, you eat there, and the town will give you a subsidy of thirty yuan a day. Accommodation will no longer be arranged, we are not far here, and we will come to live in the town when we can't go home after overtime. But you don't have to worry, the work day is not busy, and the daily commute time is the same as ours. ”

"Okay." Wu Dao said.

There are only two permanent staff members in the Information Section, one is the section chief and the other is the deputy section chief, the former is surnamed Liu, and the latter is surnamed Wang. Because of the frequent shortage of manpower, the two came up with the idea of sending propaganda officers from various townships and towns to help in the name of rotational training.

After Wu Dao met the two section chiefs, the latter first asked him for his name, unit, home address and other information, and then introduced himself. Section Chief Liu said:

"We have heard of your name for a long time, and I read the typical material of the machine factory that you wrote, and it was very well written. The messages you sent us were also well written, I didn't expect you to be so young. ”

"I just started working this year." Wu Dao said.

"What college did you graduate from?" Section Chief Wang said.

"I majored in Chinese language and literature at Jeju National University Maeseong." Wu Dao said.

"No wonder he has such a level, he turned out to be a top student from a key university. Do a good job, and it will definitely be very promising in the future. Section Chief Liu said.

"I'll do a good job." Wu Dao said.

Originally, the information department only had two desks and two computers, but in order to transfer personnel for rotation training, Section Chief Liu went to the higher-level department to apply for one-person office equipment, so Wu Dao also had an office computer.

Wu Dao thought that before he started work, the two section chiefs would train him, at least tell him what he should do and how to do it, but in fact there was no training. Section Chief Wang told Wu Dao the email account and password of the office, asked him to download the information sent by various units by himself, and gave him the internal materials of the three issues he had edited before, so that he could refer to edit the next issue. Wu Dao took the time to write a piece of information about the river town government and compiled it. After the editing was completed, Section Chief Wang and Section Chief Liu reviewed it successively, and only made minor changes.

Knowing that Wu Dao was transferred to work in the county, the Wu family was even more happy. Wu He bragged in the village again, saying that his grandson worked in the county and could see the big leaders on TV every day.

Uncle Yang Chengzhi told Wu Dao that he should perform well and strive to stay in the county to work, because the promotion in the town is too slow, and he may not be able to become a deputy department after working for decades, and the promotion in the county will be much faster, and he can be promoted in five or six years.

Wu Dao felt that his family's performance was a little ridiculous, he was only seconded to the county to help for a month, and then he had to return to the Hecheng Town Government, where could he talk about being promoted? But he knew that no one in his family would listen to what he said, and if he said what he really thought, his family would definitely say that he was stupid in reading, and they had to educate him well, so he simply didn't say anything.

After working in the information department for a few days, at seven o'clock in the morning, Wu Dao was having dinner at home, and Section Chief Liu called him and told him that there had been a major car accident at an intersection of the provincial highway and asked him to go to the scene quickly, and he and Section Chief Wang also set off immediately.

Wu Dao hurriedly ate two bites of rice, then put down the dishes and chopsticks, and rode a bicycle to the scene of the accident. From a distance, he saw that the intersection where the accident occurred was full of people, and the police set up a separation zone to keep onlookers five meters away from the collision vehicle. Wu Dao put his bicycle on the side of the road and walked to the periphery of the crowd, he did not find Liu and Wang, the two section chiefs, so he called Liu and Liu, who walked out of the isolation zone and took him to a police car inside. Wu Dao saw that there was a large truck and a bus in the separation zone, both of which were very badly damaged, the bus had almost been smashed into two sections, and the ground was full of broken glass, car parts and bloodstains. Section Chief Wang said to Wu Dao:

"You're late, the ambulance has already taken the wounded to the People's Hospital. Don't you see, more than 50 people were drenched in blood, the driver of the big truck died on the spot, more than 20 people died on the bus, and those who survived were also seriously injured, not to mention how miserable. ”

"What happened to the car accident?" Wu Dao said.

"The police are investigating, and the preliminary conclusion is that the truck is overloaded, the driver is fatigued, and the bus seems to be overloaded. You should go back to the Information Department now, and write a message as soon as possible, just write that at 5:50 this morning, a major car accident occurred at kilometer 285 of the provincial highway in Qicheng County, and a large truck collided with a bus, and the specific cause is under investigation, and Qicheng County is making every effort to rescue the injured. Section Chief Wang and I went back a little later, and after the information was written, we printed it out first, and after I read it, I sent it to the city and province. Section Chief Liu said.

Section Chief Wang told Wu Dao again about the accident that the police had initially understood, and Wu Dao got on his bicycle and went straight to the Information Section. When he arrived at the information section, he wrote the message in a few minutes and printed it out. Twenty minutes later, Section Chief Liu and Section Chief Wang also came to the Information Section, both of whom were beaming. Section Chief Liu read the information written by Wu Dao and said that it was well written, and he didn't change a word, so he asked him to send it out. Section Chief Wang said to Section Chief Liu:

"In the event of such a big car accident, this year's task can be completed ahead of schedule."

"Yes, I was worried about this year's task before, but now it's okay, the task is completed, and there may be a bonus at the end of the year." Section Chief Liu said.

"What task?" Wu Dao said.

"Don't you know, we have the task of publishing a sufficient number of articles in newspapers and higher publications every year. If the task is not completed, the qualification for excellent assessment will be cancelled in the personal assessment at the end of the year. If the task is overcompleted, the county will also give a bonus. Section Chief Liu said.

"If you have a car accident, how can you complete the task ahead of schedule?" Wu Dao said.

"A major car accident, from the beginning of the car accident, to the end of all the processing, not to mention you can write more than a dozen manuscripts, write about the occurrence of a major car accident in the morning, in the afternoon you can follow up and write how many people have increased the number of dead and injured, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow you can write the results of the police investigation, and then you can also write about the insurance company's claims, hospital treatment, civil affairs pensions, the discharge of the injured, etc., and at the end you can also write a summary. When an explosion occurred in a factory in the county the year before last, we sent six articles in a row, and this car accident was similar. With the addition of previously adopted manuscripts, this year's task can be completed ahead of schedule. Section Chief Wang said.

"If there are three major accidents a year, the task for the whole year can be easily completed." Section Chief Liu said with a smile.

Wu Dao smiled and said no more.

In the information department, Wu Dao has his own office computer, which makes it more convenient to communicate with friends. He wrote down what he had seen and sent to Zhao Wu and Jing Like in an email.

After a month, Wu Dao left the information department and returned to work in Hecheng Town.
