The CPPCC National Committee delegation conducted research in Haidong for a week, and Secretary Hanlin personally accompanied it. This is rare in the history of Haidong. In the current political circles, it is not very common.

At the first meeting of the delegation, Governor Lu Bo and Executive Vice Governor Zhou Guoping respectively reported to the delegation on the development of Haidong's cultural tourism and higher education. Immediately afterwards, the delegation visited Haidong University and Haidong Maritime College, and listened to the work reports of the two universities in teaching reform and innovation, and promoting the employment of graduates. Due to the meticulous and solid preparations, the delegation was very satisfied. According to the prior arrangement, on the evening of the third day, the Haidong Art Theater staged a wonderful program for the delegation. That night, all the members of the Standing Committee at home went, and the performance scene was orderly and the atmosphere was warm. Pu Tiancheng and Yu Chuanqing are in charge of the inside of the theater and the other is in charge of the outside of the theater. The two held walkie-talkies and reported the situation from time to time. Pu Tiancheng has always been worried that the workers of Yimao and Sanmao will cause trouble at this time, so he is extra careful. Fortunately, everything was safe, the performance was over, and when the members of the delegation were sent back to the hotel safely, Pu Tiancheng was so tired that he didn't want to speak. The secretary general is sometimes more like a guard, the leader is so focused on watching the show, you have to keep an eye on what is going on outside. No matter how well you do your work in other areas, if something happens in the most important places, even if it is a small thing, all your efforts will be in vain. On the second day of the performance, it rained lightly in Haidong, and the rain curtain made Haizhou City vast and hidden, but it was also a little more poetic. Pu Tiancheng likes this kind of weather, in fact, he likes everything with a sense of mystery, and so do people. On this day, he accompanied the delegation to visit the ancient streets of Haizhou. Haizhou Ancient Street is a very prestigious old street in Haizhou, with a very strong cultural atmosphere, and it is also a place where tourists rush to visit. Walking in the drizzle with an umbrella, there is a mist in front of you, and the old atmosphere emanating from the ancient street under your feet. Pu Tiancheng suddenly remembered his childhood and remembered the scene of a water fight behind Secretary Hanlin's buttocks. At that time, the children in the compound were divided into two groups, one group followed Song Hanlin, and the other group followed a child surnamed Gao, whose father was the deputy commander of the military region, and the official was very big. Qiao Ruoxuan was a faithful disciple of Secretary Hanlin at that time, wherever Secretary Hanlin went, she would follow her, and Song Hanlin also cared very much about this little sister who was eight years younger than him, and did not allow other children to bully her. For a while, Song Hanlin also learned from Shuibo Liangshan, and gave Qiao Ruoxuan a nickname: Mrs. Zhai. Qiao Ruoxuan was so beautiful, she opened her small mouth when she met people, and said exaggeratedly: "I am a wife, and I am Brother Hanlin's wife." Of course, at that time, Qiao Ruoxuan didn't know the meaning of Mrs. Zhai, and she only thought that Brother Hanlin had given her an official.

Qiao Ruoxuan had the ambition to be an official when she was a child, which may be related to her family background. At that time, among a group of children, her parents were the most unproductive, and life was also tight, Qiao Ruoxuan's sentence on her lips was: "When I grow up, I must be an official, be a big official, eat a lot of delicious food, and wear new clothes every day." ”

Decades have passed, and the playmates of the year are now going their separate ways, only him and Qiao Ruoxuan seem to be inseparable from Secretary Hanlin. Life is sometimes like a dream, and like this vast rain, people can't see through it.

Pu Tiancheng was thinking about it, and Yu Chuanqing came over. Yu Chuanqing looked more tired than him, and these days, the two of them didn't sleep much.

"It looks like it's working well." Yu Chuanqing said.

"Thankfully, we can't take it lightly yet, but there's still two days left." Pu Tiancheng said, his eyes were on the rain and fog, he had to worry about the safety of the inspection team at all times, and he had to be careful not to let people rush out suddenly on both sides of the road. In July last year, Pu Tiancheng also accompanied a central inspection group, that time was also in the ancient street, everyone was watching to the fullest, from the Shunchang pawnshop suddenly rushed out of a pair of father and daughter, when the father of the deputy head of the delegation, deputy director of the National People's Congress Legislative Affairs Committee of the leg hugged, he shouted "Qingtian master", began to complain. When his daughter saw that the people were gathered around, she immediately took out the pre-written statement and put it on her head. The father and daughter are from Nanhuai City, and they sued Zhu Jinwen, the mayor of Nanhuai. When Zhu Jinwen was the deputy mayor, he tricked the 16-year-old Jiang Tingting and two other female classmates into giving the director of education and Zhu Jinwen a drink through the principal of Nanhuai No. 8 Middle School. Zhu Jinwen drank too much that day, and even raped Jiang Tingting, who was learning dance, in another box under the pretext of drinking. Afterwards, Zhu Jinwen gave Jiang Tingting 500 yuan and promised to provide her with college in the future. Jiang Tingting, who was ignorant of the world, wiped her tears and shouted to see the principal. Who knew that after the principal of No. 8 Middle School learned of the situation, not only did he not help Jiang Tingting speak, but also threatened her that if she said it, she would be expelled. Under pressure, Jiang Tingting didn't dare to say it, and soon after she became pregnant, she asked the principal to take her to Zhu Jinwen. Zhu Jinwen saw her, but he ** her again in the hotel where he met, and threw her a thousand yuan after the incident and asked her to have an abortion. Jiang Tingting didn't dare to have an abortion, her belly was bulging day by day, she didn't have the face to go to school, and returned home. Jiang Tingting's parents learned of the situation and looked for the theory of the eighth middle school, but they were informed that his daughter was morally corrupt, did not study well at a young age, and messed up with the gangsters in society, made her belly bigger, and was expelled from school. Jiang's father was heartbroken, and decided to let his daughter give birth to the child, and hold the child in the future to fight a lawsuit. After Zhu Jinjiao heard about it, he was afraid, so he asked the principal of No. 8 Middle School to do the work, gave the Jiang family 20,000 yuan, and promised to let Jiang Tingting go to college, on the condition that the child must be killed. The honest Jiang's father believed it and went home with 20,000 yuan. But as soon as the child was knocked out, Zhu Jinwen and the principal of the eighth middle school all turned their faces, refused to admit that there was any rape, and insisted that Jiang Tingting had messed up with the bad teenagers in society to make her belly bigger. Only then did Jiang's father embark on the road of complaining.

But this road is difficult, the Jiang family can't come up with any evidence, and the two female students who have accompanied the wine together denied it, saying that there is no such thing as accompanying the wine at all. Jiang's father said that every day was not working, and he could only take his daughter to petition everywhere. But apart from cold eyes, there is also sarcasm, and they have not petitioned for anything.

Zhu Jinwen is good, he is now the secretary of the Nanhuai Municipal Party Committee, and he has more power.

On that day last year, Pu Tiancheng was in a sad mood. The sudden appearance of the Jiang family's father and daughter reminded him of Jin Yan. When he had a relationship with Jin Yan, Jin Yan was nineteen years old.

Yu Chuanqing said something again and went to the front. Pu Tiancheng stood alone in the rain, and a lot of past events came to his mind. There are him in the past, Jin Yan, his wife Qiao Ruoxuan, and the secretary Song Hanlin......

The week's investigation ended successfully, and Pu Tiancheng and others breathed a long sigh of relief. The delegation spoke highly of Haidong's work, and Secretary Hanlin and Governor Lu Bo were very happy. The day after sending off the delegation, the province held a summary meeting, and Secretary Hanlin highly praised Pu Tiancheng and Yu Chuanqing, saying that they had done a meticulous job, made adequate preparations, and provided services in place, so that Haidong showed his face in front of the CPPCC members. Yu Chuanqing was a little complacent, and it was not easy to get praise from the secretary. Pu Tiancheng was very calm, in fact, he knew that Secretary Hanlin had relieved a burden and had a heart disease. In the past, when Wu Yuhao was in power, he was not very enthusiastic about the inspection group and research group of the CPPCC National Committee and the National People's Congress, and his service was not very thoughtful. When the central authorities adjusted the Haidong leadership group and solicited opinions, the CPPCC and the people's congress did not say much good things to Wu Yuhao, but they put forward a lot of negative opinions. At least, there was a gap between his own expectations. Secretary Hanlin is a smart man, and as soon as he took office, he wanted to reverse the situation, so Secretary Hanlin attached great importance to the CPPCC's inspection. As Secretary Hanlin's old follower, Secretary Hanlin has several illnesses in his heart, and Pu Tiancheng can feel them clearly.

Accurately ascertaining the intentions of leadership is one of the skills that the Secretary-General must possess. How to implement this intention well in concrete work is one of the key factors in judging whether a secretary-general is competent. It seems that Secretary Hanlin is really satisfied this time.

After the meeting, Secretary Hanlin called Pu Tiancheng to the office and said, "It's hard work, Tiancheng, I haven't slept well for a few days, right?" Pu Tiancheng nodded, he looked very tired, his face was sallow, as if he had suffered a serious illness. Secretary Hanlin said: "Secretary General Wang of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) told me that Tiancheng is a good material, so I must use it well. I said Secretary General Wang, Tiancheng is indeed a good material, but I feel distressed when I use it, and nothing is indispensable to him, I am really worried that he will be tired one day. Pu Tiancheng was moved to hear this, Secretary-General Wang is the second time to lead a team to Haidong, he came the year before last, this time Secretary-General Wang received a completely different courtesy from the last time, and it is reasonable to say some good words. But Secretary Hanlin said it in front of him like this, which still flattered him. Pu Tiancheng nodded unnaturally, "If you can satisfy Secretary General Wang, no matter how hard it is, it's worth it." Secretary Hanlin laughed loudly: "Satisfied, he is very satisfied." Tiancheng, this reception was very successful, you seriously summed up the experience, to be honest, I have not been very relieved about the reception. Pu Tiancheng said: "Please rest assured, the secretary will sum it up carefully." Song Hanlin smiled and took out a package of things from the drawer: "These are two ginseng trees from a friend, you can take them and make up for your body." Pu Tiancheng hurriedly pushed the block, "How dare I accept the secretary's ginseng, or you let it go." Song Hanlin was unhappy, and pretended to be angry and said: "Why, I can't see it, this is an authentic Changbai mountain ginseng, a bit old." Pu Tiancheng said with a smile on his face: "Why, I don't dare to take love, and ...... besides" He originally wanted to say that the secretary's body also needed to be greatly repaired, but when he thought about it, it was a bit vulgar, so he didn't dare to say it. Song Hanlin put the ginseng in his hand and asked, "How has Guanghuai been there recently, Ruoxuan didn't report to you?" ”

"When will she report to me, you don't know her temperament." As soon as he heard that the topic turned to Qiao Ruoxuan, he became vigilant.

"It's because you're too bureaucratic, how did I hear that she hasn't cooperated very well with Comrade Han Wu recently."

"No, I've never heard of that." Pu Tiancheng was secretly surprised, he understood Qiao Ruoxuan's temperament, and he never took anyone seriously, relying on the relationship with Secretary Hanlin, he always behaved a little domineering below. Could it be that Du Hanwu sued Secretary Hanlin?

"I said, no wonder you are closed to information, it turns out that you don't care about your wife's affairs, which is not good. Tiancheng, at our age, we should still care about it. In this way, take the time to talk to Ruoxuan, if you really can't cooperate, come back, there is not only one position suitable for her, you can do this job. ”

Pu Tiancheng froze there, according to Secretary Hanlin's tone, he should have a score in his heart, so?

Coming out of Secretary Hanlin's office, Pu Tiancheng was at a loss, Secretary Hanlin had always said something to him, why did he have to adopt such a subtle attitude in this matter? Did he hear something, or did Qiao Ruoxuan do something wrong?

This Qiao Ruoxuan is always self-righteous, sooner or later she will have to suffer!

After getting off work in the afternoon, Pu Tiancheng pushed away all the entertainment and asked the driver to send him home. He wanted to call Qiao Ruoxuan again in the evening, but he was so anxious that he couldn't make tea, so he got through the phone. Qiao Ruoxuan asked over there, "What's the matter?" Pu Tiancheng said: "It's okay." "What are you calling?" Putian Cheng is angry, I'm your husband, can't I make a phone call?

"You'll be right back." Pu Tiancheng said.

"What are you doing here, I'm busy here."

"No matter how busy you are, you'll come back!" Pu Tiancheng sighed heavily.

Qiao Ruoxuan also sighed heavily: "I'm a guest here, and I can't leave recently." ”

This is their life, and the phone calls between husband and wife are often in a businesslike tone. Pu Tiancheng heard a noisy voice on the other side of the phone, as if he was in a hotel. You know how to eat all day long, and sooner or later you will vomit after eating. He hung up the phone angrily, sat on the sofa in a depressed mood for a while, got up, and went to the kitchen to get food. There was nothing in the kitchen, and Pu Tiancheng still hadn't developed the habit of buying vegetables first after work, so he stood for a while and returned to the sofa in a disapprehensive mood. Later, Pu Tiancheng called Wang Jingyu, secretary general of Guanghuai City. Wang Jingyu first worked under him, and he is a reliable person, and Wang Jingyu can be the secretary general, which also has a certain relationship with Pu Tiancheng. Of course, in this matter, Pu Tiancheng first considered his wife. Qiao Ruoxuan went to Guanghuai, and at first he looked at the director of the original ** office, but Pu Tiancheng felt that the person was not kind, so he resolutely vetoed it. Qiao Ruoxuan listened to his advice and promoted Wang Jingyu from the position of director of the Cultural Bureau. Practice has proved that Pu Tiancheng's gaze is accurate, and Wang Jingyu is loyal to Qiao Ruoxuan.

Pu Tiancheng said: "Jing Yu, how are you doing? As soon as he heard that it was Pu Tiancheng, Wang Jingyu's voice immediately changed: "Secretary-General, I've been doing well lately, Secretary-General, how are you?" Pu Tiancheng said hello, and Wang Jingyu began to say a lot of low-profile polite words, which made Pu Tiancheng blush. When did the phone call between superiors and subordinates become a sign of loyalty? The original simple words made this loyalty expression immediately complicated and ambiguous. Usually Pu Tiancheng himself says the same, but when the angle changes, when others tell him, he is still not used to it. Finally waited for Wang Jingyu to finish speaking, Pu Tiancheng asked solemnly: "Jingyu, tell me, has Ruoxuan been in conflict with Lao Du again recently?" As soon as he heard this, Wang Jingyu was immediately dumb, and after a long time, he said, "This ...... This...... Secretary-General, where did you hear that? ”

Pu Tiancheng was unhappy and aggravated his tone: "I ask you, tell the truth!" ”

Wang Jingyu knew that he couldn't get around, and said tremblingly: "That's the case, a few days ago, for Emperor Ming, Mayor Qiao and Secretary Du had some awkward troubles, but the trouble was not too great. ”

"Nothing else?"

"No, really not, it's for the Ming Emperor, Mayor Qiao has always advocated Guan, but Secretary Du didn't agree, saying that the Ming Emperor was a small matter, which hurt the enthusiasm of foreign investors, and the Guanghuai economy would regress."

Putian Changcheng sighed, if this is the case, the problem should not be too big, and it will not be to the extent of breaking the muscles and bones. He said to Wang Jingyu: "That's it." Then he hung up.

Emperor Ming's things Pu Tiancheng has heard some, a few years ago, Guanghuai to attract investment, from Guangzhou to attract an investor, the boss is called Geng Minghuang, Guangzhou, he invested hundreds of millions in Guanghuai, in addition to the development of real estate, but also opened an underwear products company, the two years popular market "Jiaowa" underwear is produced by the Ming Emperor Garment Company. Geng Minghuang has brought a new wind to Guanghuai's economy, and his Minghuang Group has now become a representative of Guanghuai's private enterprises. But three years ago, Geng Minghuang suddenly invested more than 100 million yuan to build a catering and entertainment center, which has a five-star hotel, nightclub, sauna and bathing center, Minghuang Restaurant, and SPA men's and women's health club. From the day it opened, this entertainment center has attracted all kinds of criticism. It is said that there are many beautiful women inside, and the variety of services is dizzying. Pu Tiancheng has never been there once, and he is allergic to these bells and whistles. In March last year, an 18-year-old waitress jumped off the building at the Minghuang Restaurant, which attracted the attention of all walks of life. This matter has been troubled for a while, and it is no longer troublesome, Pu Tiancheng thought to himself, it must be the Ming Emperor who paid for it and made it private. He once asked Qiao Ruoxuan around the corner, is the Ming Emperor really as terrible as the outside world legend? Qiao Ruoxuan said angrily: "What, you are also itching in your heart, do you want me to give you a gold card, you make a special trip to experience it?" One sentence was choked, and Pu Tiancheng couldn't ask the second sentence. But he knew in his heart that there was a famous hall in the Ming Emperor.

Qiao Ruoxuan openly opposed the Ming Emperor and let the Ming Emperor close the door, which made Putiancheng feel at ease. This world is already dazzling enough, sometimes it's dizzy, even Pu Tiancheng himself feels that the world has become too fast, becoming more and more incomprehensible, and even afraid to look at it. If you can make less noise, let's try to reduce it as much as possible.

Pu Tiancheng got up, his stomach was ringing with hunger, and he thought of eating a bowl of noodles at the noodle restaurant downstairs.

·2

Dahua's progress is not ideal, the groundbreaking ceremony has been completed for more than a month, the project has not really started, the time is already in late June, if you don't hurry, Dahua Haidong this cooperation project, will be difficult to complete on schedule.

To this end, the province held two joint meetings, one presided over by Deputy Secretary Ma Chaoran, and people from all walks of life came, but the employee representatives of Yimao and Sanmao did not come. In June of the year before last, when the province's wool textile industry was restructured, one Mao and three Mao had internal accidents, and more than half of the board of directors of the two enterprises went in, and a few did not go in. Later, with the joint efforts of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission and the Economic and Trade Commission, the company set up a temporary management committee, and the employees elected Zheng Binyuan as the director of the management committee, but Zheng Binyuan politely declined. But Zheng Binyuan has a high prestige among the employees, and in fact, he has the final say in the internal affairs of Yidi. On the day of the groundbreaking ceremony, Zheng Binyuan gave Pu Tiancheng and Secretary Hanlin a face, and persuaded the employees to go back, but then, when the employees made trouble again, Zheng Binyuan said that he didn't care about anything. The meeting presided over by Secretary Chaoran asked the Economic and Trade Commission to invite Zheng Binyuan two days in advance, but people were stunned and did not give face. Immediately afterwards, Executive Vice Mayor Zhou Guoping convened another meeting, which was attended by the Finance, Economy and Trade, State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and the System Reform Commission to discuss and solve the "12 Articles" problem. However, the meeting lasted for two hours, and except for the five that had already been fulfilled, the remaining seven did not come up with any solution.

When Pu Tiancheng reported this matter to Secretary Hanlin, Secretary Hanlin's face was very gloomy. Pu Tiancheng finished reporting the results of the two meetings and stood aside for instructions. Secretary Hanlin didn't look up, didn't speak, and the pen in his hand kept drawing circles on the paper. Secretary Hanlin drew a circle, and Putian Cheng knew that he was angry. It's no wonder if you're not angry, the project has been blocked for a month, and there is no movement in all aspects, and they are all looking at it with their eyes open, and whoever is replaced has to be angry. Pu Tiancheng privately believes that this is the deputy secretary of Chaoran who is secretly making trouble. At the beginning, the province decided to bring Dahua to Haidong, and Deputy Secretary Chaoran had a very positive attitude. At that time, he was the deputy secretary, and Song Hanlin was the governor. According to Pu Tiancheng's judgment at the time, Deputy Secretary Chaoran wanted to personally grasp the project. Grasping the project is different from grasping other work, grasping the project, to a certain extent, also grasping the political achievements, grasping the wealth, so the enthusiasm of the leaders is very high, and when they encounter a good project, everyone will reveal their meaning. Moreover, Dahua's headquarters is in **, and the largest shareholder is a French consortium, which is responsible for this project, which means that it can come and go in ** and France. But at the branch meeting, Secretary Yuhao handed over the work to Song Hanlin, and as a result, Deputy Secretary Chaoran was not happy. Pu Tiancheng remembers very well that after the branch meeting, Secretary Chaoran was unhappy for a long time, and the contact with ** here became obviously less, and later Secretary Hanlin took the initiative to find him and went to France with him, which broke the deadlock. After Secretary Hanlin arrived at the Provincial Party Committee, he thought twice and handed over Dahua Haidong to Ma Chaoran, but Ma Chaoran has not been very active, and the main reason for not being active is that Secretary Hanlin has the final say on this project.

Some people are willing to pay for others and be willing to be a ladder, such as him; Some people don't. The transcendent secretary has a hand-in-hand complex, which the people in the two compounds of the provincial party committee and the provincial government can understand, he should not be in charge, the transcendent secretary is often in charge, and he often shows his face in advance. Sometimes he even crossed Secretary Hanlin and said something very principled, but in the end, Secretary Hanlin didn't say anything. This kind of joke, Secretary Chaoran has made trouble more than once, Secretary Hanlin doesn't say it, but he must have an idea in his heart.

Hiding his thoughts in his heart, with a very gentle smile on his face, this is Secretary Hanlin.

The 12 articles to be implemented were discussed by Pu Tiancheng on behalf of the provincial government at that time with the workers of one and three cents, and the policy concessions were a bit big, and it was indeed difficult to implement, especially the funds promised by Dahua could not be put in place, and the promises to the workers could not be fulfilled. But as long as you want to do anything, you can always find some solutions, such as the problem of funds, even if Dahua can't come up with the money, the provincial financial attitude is a little more positive, and there are still ways to solve it. Moreover, there is still a piece of land in Yimao, which has also entered the auction process, and according to Pu Tiancheng's knowledge, there are no less than ten people who want to get that piece of land at present.

Pu Tiancheng analyzed it like this, and felt that the relationship between the two secretaries of the provincial party committee was very delicate at present. In particular, Secretary Hanlin knew that Ma Chaoran was in the way and exacerbated the contradiction between the workers and Dahua in a negative way, but he pretended not to be aware of anything, and still let the situation develop in a bad way.

That afternoon, Pu Tiancheng received Qiu Yanni's invitation again, and Qiu Yanni said warmly on the phone: "Secretary-General, do you have time after work, I want to invite the Secretary-General to have a meal." Pu Tiancheng hurriedly said: "Mr. Qiu, I'm really embarrassed, there are a lot of things in the past two days, let's do it another day, I'll invite you another day." Qiu Yanni refused again when she heard this, and her tone dimmed, "The secretary general doesn't give face once, today is the weekend, presumably not too busy, I have already booked the place, I hope the secretary general will appreciate it." ”

This Qiu Yanni, what is she going to do? Pu Tiancheng drew a question mark in his heart, and said with excuses: "I'm really sorry, there is a party in the unit this afternoon, I can't get out of it, next week, I will definitely invite Mr. Qiu next week." When Qiu Yanni heard this, she knew that it was hopeless, and said in frustration: "Okay, Yanni is waiting for the secretary general's call at any time." ”

Closing the phone, Pu Tiancheng's heart was in turmoil again, and Qiu Yanni asked him again and again, just to borrow his hand to calm the emotions of the workers as soon as possible and let the project start quickly. The project is delayed for one day, Qiu Yanni's position in Dahua is in danger for one day, and Qiu Yanni is now burning her eyebrows more than anyone else. But will his hand work?

After thinking about it, Pu Tiancheng decided to see Zheng Binyuan again, and he believed that Secretary Hanlin was observing Ma Chaoran with cold eyes, and at the same time, he was also observing him.

At ten o'clock last year on Saturday, Pu Tiancheng came to Zheng Binyuan's house. Zheng Binyuan just got up, the house was still messy, and there was no place to stay. Pu Tiancheng glanced at the mahjong table placed in the center of the living room and said, "It's a good interest, I can play all night." Zheng Binyuan pulled his slippers and said angrily: "It's not like you, you dedicated yourself to the party." Pu Tiancheng smiled, he knew Zheng Binyuan, this person has such a temper. Zheng Binyuan entered the bathroom, Pu Tiancheng really couldn't see it, and started to tidy up the house for Zheng Binyuan. After cleaning up for a while, he said: "I think you have to find a partner, and if you continue like this, you are more than 100 pounds, and you are not safe." Zheng Binyuan said while washing his face: "Thank you Secretary-General, you dare to take care of this matter in the organization." Pu Tiancheng said: "Still emotional, when did your Lao Zheng become a small-bellied chicken intestine?" After a while, he said: "It doesn't matter about the organization, brother, I can't bear to let you fall on the mahjong table." ”

"Okay, you have a red-headed document and appoint one for me."

Pu Tiancheng couldn't cry or laugh, he couldn't lose his temper when he was this kind of person, so he had to say: "The red-headed document is exempt, I also met Yalan a few days ago, and I asked you." After speaking, he stared at Zheng Binyuan to see how his expression changed.

Zheng Binyuan didn't react at all, and said lazily: "That crazy woman, I'll leave it to you, I'll be exempt." ”

Yalan's name is Deng Yalan, and she is Zheng Binyuan and Pu Tiancheng's middle school classmates. When she was in middle school, Deng Yalan was interested in Pu Tiancheng, but Pu Tiancheng didn't feel anything about her, thinking that she was too crazy, and she dressed like a boy all day long, either fighting or uniting students to make the teacher better. Pu Tiancheng They have a teacher surnamed Zeng, and everyone secretly calls him Master Zeng. Zeng Fuzi taught Chinese, and as soon as he stood on the podium, he made his classmates drowsy. Yalan didn't like Zeng's master, and for a while, he was against Zeng's master. When Zeng Fuzi talked about the lesson of "Red Cliff Nostalgia", Yalan suddenly shouted that her stomach hurt and held her stomach straight. Zeng Fuzi ran down and asked her where she was hurting, Yalan rubbed her stomach and said: "The abdomen is turned upside down, and I don't know the exact location." It made the classmates laugh. Zeng Fuzi knew that he was fooled, and was about to get angry, Yalan stood up, "The teacher's nostrils are hairy and dirty. "Mr. Zeng didn't like to cut his nose hair, and often had nose hair prank out of his nostrils. Being humiliated like this by Yalan, Master Zeng was furious and pointed at Yalan's nose, "You, you give me out." Arlan laughed, then made a triumphant gesture to his classmates and walked away.

Yalan didn't get into college, and if such a student could get into college, God would blush. When Zheng Binyuan and Pu Tiancheng were in college, Yalan entered a street garment factory, and later married, and I heard that she was married to her master's son. Later, I heard that they quarreled, fought, and divorced. Then there was no news. When Pu Tiancheng was a secretary in Jidong, he suddenly heard that Yalan had returned from abroad and brought back a foreign son, and when he inquired, he learned that she had gone to France and married an old man who was more than ten years older than her. The old man has assets of no less than one billion, first as a farmer, and later as a business, there are four large-scale garment factories alone. Yalan snatched a handful of the old man from the old man's hands through marriage, and then took his son, said goodbye to the old man, and returned to his homeland. At present, she is the chairman of Yalan Bier Clothing Co., Ltd., a single aristocrat. I don't know why, Pu Tiancheng has always wanted to match Yalan and Zheng Binyuan together, perhaps, they are all people who have gone through ups and downs, and when they come together, they may cherish it even more. Yalan also has a good impression of Zheng Binyuan, and often asks about him, but unfortunately Zheng Binyuan's wood is now dead or alive.

Zheng Binyuan drank a glass of milk, which was an explanation for his stomach, and then sat back on the sofa. After Pu Tiancheng cleaned up, the house was much cleaner, Pu Tiancheng boiled boiling water and made two cups of tea.

"The Secretary-General's personal service, not bad." Zheng Binyuan said in a weird way.

"I can't die without help, look at you, what kind of life has you lived?" Pu Tiancheng wants to seriously persuade Zheng Binyuan, when a man reaches this age, he can't be sloppy in life, he can't do anything like staying up late playing mahjong, he can't do it anymore, he can't lose his capital if he has nothing, and his body is his capital.

"If you're envious, you can live like this." Zheng Binyuan lit the flue, he doesn't like to listen to people's preaching, even if it's his best friend. In his opinion, he is in a good situation at the moment. In fact, he didn't play cards last night, a few workers came to the house, they played for a night, he is now a single staff club, who doesn't want to go home to hug his wife, can come. He himself has never touched these things, and last night he stayed up all night to write a material entitled "The Failure of State-Owned Enterprise Reform from the Perspective of One Mao and Three Mao." Zheng Binyuan has always held different views on the reform of state-owned enterprises, especially the reform of the property rights system, and believes that the current practice of selling out all of them is not reforming, but forcibly ending the mission of state-owned enterprises by an abnormal means. He plans to send this material directly to the Policy Research Center of the State Council in the future.

"Say, what are the instructions for coming?"

"If you don't dare to give instructions, I'm here to talk to you."

"Talk? The secretary general of the provincial party committee went to the house of a poor man to chat, and if the reporter knew about it, it would be big news. ”

"Can you be serious, I'm not here to listen to cool words."

"Seriously? Yes, the Communist Party is afraid of the word 'serious'. Zheng Binyuan looked cynical.

"You haven't had enough of your mouth." Pu Tiancheng said with a warning tone.

"No, it's early, I, Zheng Binyuan, can't slip away in my life, I can't shoot horses, unlike you, I always know what to say and what not to say."

"Lao Zheng, you've been complaining for decades, how about it, haven't you said it yet?" Pu Tiancheng sighed worriedly. In his life, the most unpleasant thing he couldn't listen to was this kind of whining. People can be dissatisfied with things, and they can complain, but they can't eat complaining. Zheng Binyuan can't control himself too much at this point, which is also the biggest difference between them.

What a person can and can't get in the end has a lot to do with one's cultivation and attitude toward the world. When you approach the world with a negative and pessimistic attitude, your life will naturally be bleak.

Zheng Binyuan is not only pessimistic and negative now, but also a bit mocking the world. Although there are many absurd things in this world, funny things, and things that you can't understand and can't accept, it's still far from the level where you can ridicule it. If you dare to ridicule, you can only say that you are too shallow and think too tall of yourself.

Remember at all times that as a human being, you are small and unqualified to mock the world. Only when you are careful and cautious and live in it, can your road become wider and wider. This is the logic of Pu Tiancheng's life.

About Zheng Binyuan himself also felt that it was too oily and slippery, and he only played a small trick on his lips, so he took the initiative to restrain himself and said seriously: "Do you want to talk to me about the staff again?" ”

"I want to talk, it depends on whether you Zheng is interested."

"Don't come to this set, say okay, and let me do the work for the employees, I won't do it."

"I haven't done the work yet, but maybe I won't be able to do it in the future." Pu Tiancheng got up and filled the cups of the two of them with water again. He came today to confess to Zheng Binyuan and see if he could find the best way to completely end the matter of one and three cents.

Some things are delayed for a long time, it will be moldy, the food is moldy, and some green hairs will grow, and things are the same, once moldy, not only green hairs will grow, but there may also be red hairs and yellow hairs. Although the matter of one mao and three mao will not hurt Pu Tiancheng, it is likely to hurt Secretary Hanlin, which is a top secret, I am afraid that except for Pu Tiancheng, no one will know. But Pu Tiancheng has had a bad premonition recently, and Ma Chaoran's eyes seem to have caught a glimpse of something. Tianpu Tiancheng found that Secretary Chaoran was with the husband of the former financial director of a wool factory. Yu Xiaomao, the chief financial officer, went in and was sentenced to three years, everyone knows that the sentence for these three years is extremely light, according to the fact that she embezzled more than 8 million yuan, at least more than ten years. But no one knew that Secretary Hanlin had taken some measures during this period, and many things were done by him at that time. He shouldered a certain mission, and in the case of corporate corruption that shook the whole province and even the whole country, he maneuvered at all levels, and the matter was finally concluded according to Secretary Hanlin's wishes. But the ending is not satisfactory to everyone, and it is too difficult to have an ending that satisfies everyone, so many things can only satisfy the wishes of a few people or even a very small number of people. Ma Chaoran is probably one of the most dissatisfied. Pu Tiancheng didn't expect that even in this game of chess, Ma Chaoran dared to move, this is a game of dead chess, an ironclad case, leaving no chance for anyone to turn the tables. Ma Chaoran hit Xiaomao's husband's idea again, which proves that the desire in his heart is far more than staring at the position of Secretary Hanlin.

Yu Xiaomao's husband is a gambler, and it is said that in order to ask Yu Xiaomao for money, he has a lot of evidence against Yu Xiaomao. These evidences, Pu Tiancheng bothered at that time, but the man was too greedy, and Pu Tiancheng finally gave up. However, through other channels, he seriously warned the gambler to never talk nonsense with his mouth open.

Pu Tiancheng retracted his thoughts, a desolate smile flashed on his face, and said: "The twelve, it is estimated that it will not be fulfilled in two times, the employees have opinions, everyone can understand, but the things that have been promised must be implemented." ”

"You go and tell the staff about this." Zheng Binyuan interrupted Pu Tiancheng, he is most annoying to mention the twelve articles now, if it weren't for Pu Tiancheng, he wouldn't have signed that unequal treaty. It's good now, even the poor twelve** have not been fulfilled for a long time.

Pu Tiancheng was not in a hurry or annoyed, and said slowly: "It's okay to talk to the staff, the key is that it's not the right time, this matter is currently in charge of Deputy Secretary Chaoran, and it is not appropriate for me to come forward to speak." ”

"Then I won't talk about it." Zheng Binyuan lit another cigarette.

"I still have to talk about it, otherwise, what should I do with you?" Pu Tiancheng smiled, seemingly relaxed, but in fact he smiled hard.

The topic finally turned to the Yimao and Sanmao workers, and Zheng Binyuan angrily scolded Pu Tiancheng, saying that it was all caused by him. "You said it well, but now? Are you happy to see tens of thousands of workers laid off and unemployed? Pu Tiancheng sighed helplessly, he had argued with Zheng Binyuan no less than ten times about similar issues. Zheng Binyuan attributed the laid-off and unemployed workers to the first one, thinking that the first policy had gone wrong, and the restructuring ruined the enterprise. Pu Tiancheng argued with him on the basis of reason, saying that the company was collapsed by yourself, and it had nothing to do with **. In addition, the reform of state-owned enterprises is a general trend, and no one can stop it, but the problem has been exposed by one or three cents. Zheng Binyuan scolded Pu Tiancheng for playing an official tone and not telling the truth. "Can you tell the truth, even if it's just one sentence, why don't you officials have a word of truth in their mouths?" Pu Tiancheng smiled and said tepidly: "What I tell is the truth, but you can't hear the true flavor in it." ”

"It's the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, right?" Zheng Binyuan laughed, he didn't want to theorize with Pu Tiancheng, but there were some things that he couldn't help but say, if he didn't talk about the employees, he would suffer losses and continue to be exploited. He said: "When the enterprise is booming, you kill the chicken and take the egg, and every year you can't wait to take away all the money earned by the enterprise." Now enterprises want to update technology, change equipment, and need help, but you have a break! ”

"Bin Yuan, you have to change your thinking, otherwise, something will go wrong sooner or later." Seeing that Zheng Binyuan was still so stubborn, Pu Tiancheng sighed.

"How can you change, follow you, and push the workers into a desperate situation?"

Pu Tiancheng said patiently: "** did not force the workers, on the contrary, ** is actively trying to find ways to help them tide over the difficulties." ”

"High-sounding, you will say something high-sounding!" Zheng Binyuan got up, and every time he talked about the workers, he got excited, and Pu Tiancheng thought that it was his view that hurt the workers.

In the face of the big trend, everyone must learn to adapt and find their own position. The enterprise does not exist, and the road of life is not broken. Pu Tiancheng cited many examples of laid-off workers starting a business, saying that petitioning cannot solve lifelong problems, and will not solve everyone's problems, so we must start as soon as possible and carry out self-help. Zheng Binyuan said that the workers have dedicated most of their lives to the company, and now they are left to fend for themselves, which he thinks is too cruel.

"The world is inherently cruel, and there are no more days of lying on the enterprise once and for all."

After the argument, Zheng Binyuan stopped talking, not because he was persuaded by Pu Tiancheng, but because he felt that people like Pu Tiancheng would never stand on the side of the workers, they were used to letting others sacrifice, and the fun of their lives was also in watching how others sacrificed.

touched the nail in front of Zheng Binyuan, Pu Tiancheng was very discouraged, for a few days, his mood was very depressed, and he couldn't do anything to lift his spirits. These days, Jidong's voice is getting louder and louder, Ma Xiaolin said that Wang Huazhong secretly went to Beijing and has not returned yet. It seems that Wang Huazhong also realized that if he can't be sued in the province, it is better to go directly to Beijing to sue. Ma Xiaolin also said that Xu Zhaohu, secretary of the municipal party committee, has also been a little arrogant in his actions recently, and he has talked about the Jidong Building at several meetings, and he should let all cadres take the Jidong Building as a warning, and must not throw away the fundamental principle of "everything for the people" for their own interests. Xu Zhaohu said such a thing, Pu Tiancheng could imagine it. He has no personal friendship with Xu, Xu's promotion is completely because of Ma Chaoran, according to the saying, Xu Zhaohu is Ma Chaoran's line, of course, I wish he had an accident, the bigger the better. But when he heard this, he was still angry, and he couldn't help but say: "What qualifications does he Xu Zhaohu have, he was engaged in Nan'an Expressway back then, and he was not dead!" The Nan'an Expressway that Pu Tiancheng said was a project that Xu Zhaohu grasped when he was the mayor of Nanhuai. There are many tunnels on the highway, and when the Majiashan tunnel was being repaired, the tunnel collapsed, and more than 60 migrant workers were trapped, and in the end, despite the efforts to rescue them, 12 migrant workers died in the tunnel. At that time, this was a major engineering accident. Xu Zhaohu moved up and down, and finally blocked the news in the province and did not report it to the central government. Later, the project headquarters and Nanhuai City contributed money to compensate the victims.

"That's it, I also heard that the person surnamed Xu was also involved in the Nanhuai prostitution case back then, but the people below didn't dare to say it." As soon as Ma Xiaolin heard that he was angry, he immediately answered.

This is the first time I have heard of this, and Putian has set his eyes on Ma Xiaolin. People like Ma Xiaolin can sometimes bring you something new by surprise. Seeing Pu Tiancheng staring at him, Ma Xiaolin was a little nervous, avoided his gaze and said, "I can't get used to his high-flying and domineering appearance." ”

Pu Tiancheng thought for a while and said vaguely: "Xiaolin, this kind of talk can't be said nonsense, when it comes to leading cadres, we must talk about evidence, and if there is no evidence, it is slander." ”

Ma Xiaolin didn't seem to understand, and said with a red face: "Secretary-General, I also said casually, the surname Xu is too much, and if you don't stop Wang Huazhong, you can't stop them, and secretly encourage them." Pu Tiancheng was a little disappointed, was silent for a while, and then said: "You better leave these things alone, don't let it be distracted, and concentrate on work." ”

Ma Xiaolin snorted and stopped talking. Pu Tiancheng felt a little anxious in his heart, as if someone had blocked something, and he couldn't do it if he didn't poke it open, but he couldn't poke it open very obviously. After a while, he said as if he suddenly remembered something: "I heard that the Jiang family's father and daughter are still suing?" Ma Xiaolin heard clearly this time and said: "I inquired, but I won't tell you, and I can't tell you." Putian grew up and said, "That Jiang Tingting, it's really pitiful." Xiaolin, if you have a chance, you can go to Nanhuai, take a look at this child for me, and if life is really difficult, help her secretly. Remember, don't mention me to her. ”

Ma Xiaolin immediately said: "Secretary-General Bodhisattva heart, I will go to Nanhuai next week." ”

"Don't be in such a hurry, lest people gossip." When Pu Tiancheng said this, he didn't say anything, he believed that no matter how stupid Ma Xiaolin was, he could understand the meaning of his words.

After Ma Xiaolin left, Pu Tiancheng repeatedly interrogated himself, what did he want to do, and was it too despicable to do so? But he finally shook his head, and when the wolf wants to bite, you have to find a way to pull out the wolf's sharp teeth.

Xu Zhaohu is not the key yet, what he is worried about is Wang Huazhong. I heard that Wang Huazhong's son was directly assigned to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection after graduating from graduate school, and it was precisely because of this that Wang Huazhong was able to turn over in the trough of his life and regain his arrogance. It is precisely because of this that Wang Huazhong, who has lost the political stage, dares to turn over his old accounts. How important it is to raise a good son now. Thinking of this, Pu Tiancheng suddenly reminded himself, should he also go to Beijing?

Shen Xiaoying is here. She called in the morning and rushed to the provincial capital in the afternoon. Pu Tiancheng happened to have an urgent matter at hand, and originally wanted Cao Xiaoan to help Shen Xiaoying book a room first, but after thinking about it, forget it, this year, who do you say is insured? When Pu Tiancheng finished the business at hand, Shen Xiaoying had already moved into the hotel, and she called Pu Tiancheng and said that they would have dinner together in the afternoon. Pu Tiancheng said okay, there was no entertainment in the afternoon.

After getting off work, Pu Tiancheng sat in the office for a while, convinced that no one had arranged for him to temporarily arrange the reception, so he went downstairs slowly. When he got downstairs, he found that the car was still there, and he had told the driver that he would not need a car in the afternoon and let him go home on time, but the driver was still waiting in the car. Putian is a little moved, in fact, he is a person who is easily moved by others, especially the staff around him. Even though he knew that the staff sometimes had to do it, he was moved. The driver jumped out of the car to open the door for him, and Pu Tiancheng said, "You don't need a car today, you can go home." The driver stood there blankly, looking at his distant back, as if he had done something wrong. Pu Tiancheng didn't look back, for fear that the driver's expression would touch him and remind him of the scene when he used to be a secretary and a deputy. People, it is not easy for anyone to go all the way.

Pu Tiancheng rushed to the Swan Hotel, and Shen Xiaoying was waiting for him dressed up. Looking at each other, the expressions of both of them changed. In Pu Tiancheng's opinion, after so many years, Shen Xiaoying is still so beautiful and graceful, but she also has fine crow's feet on her forehead, and the years are still unforgiving after all. For Shen Xiaoying, this meeting is somewhat extravagant, after all, Pu Tiancheng is no longer the secretary of Pu back then, he is now a big man, with higher power and more power, and this opportunity is even more rare. So there was a rare restraint and timidity on her face, and she became less generous than before, called the secretary general, and then she didn't know what to say.

Pu Tiancheng smiled and said, "I'm really embarrassed, let you go to the hotel by yourself." Shen Xiaoying hurriedly said: "I know that the secretary general is busy and has caused you trouble, I'm really sorry." ”

Entering the room, Pu Tiancheng sat down on the sofa. Shen Xiaoying was embarrassed there, not knowing whether to make tea first or do something else first. Pu Tiancheng looked at her embarrassment and said as if relieving the pressure: "It's been hard all the way, find a place to eat first, and let's talk after eating." ”

Shen Xiaoying snorted, her appearance was docile and charming.

There is a seafood city called "One and Only Place" on Xinjin Road in Haizhou City, which is full of diners every day, and Pu Tiancheng brought Shen Xiaoying there, which is already overcrowded. Shen Xiaoying looked at the crowded diners and said, "It's too noisy here, can you change to a secluded place?" Pu Tiancheng said: "It doesn't matter, there is a small building in the back, let's go there." So the two men went inside. Someone in the middle recognized Pu Tiancheng and got up to say hello, Pu Tiancheng beckoned to the other party and motioned for him to continue eating. Another person came from afar and warmly invited them, and Pu Tiancheng said, "No need, I have a distinguished guest today." The inviter put his eyes on Shen Xiaoying's face, Shen Xiaoying's face was hot and uncomfortable. Pu Tiancheng didn't care, he talked to people generously and asked the waiter to call the foreman. After a short time, a tall woman in a cheongsam walked over and said with a smile: "It's the secretary general, why are you free to come here today?" Pu Tiancheng smiled and said, "A friend has come, find a quiet place." The woman looked at Shen Xiaoying and said, "Yes, yes, let's go to Haining Garden." The small second floor was really quiet, and the foreman enthusiastically led them into Haining Garden, a private room of more than ten square meters, which was very chic and very emotional. The foreman summoned two waiters and told them not to worry about other private rooms and concentrate on serving here. Neither of the two waiters was more than 20 years old, and one of them knew Pu Tiancheng, and the secretary general on the left and the secretary general on the right called him very affectionately. Shen Xiaoying was a little puzzled, generally speaking, leaders are most afraid of going to a place with acquaintances when they eat, and they will not choose such a messy small shop, Pu Tiancheng seems to be very satisfied here. Later, she learned that the owner of the store was the sister of a classmate of Putiancheng Middle School, who used to be the logistics chief of Sanmao Factory, and after Sanmao was in a recession, she took the initiative to resign and set up this store. Today, "One and Only" has a brand effect, and has set up 12 chain stores across the country, and business is booming.

Pu Tiancheng asked for a pot of Pu'er, and calming down in chaos is also a great advantage in his character. The wife and children are not around, and the big meal can not be eaten every day, Putian has to find some unique places like "one place", sometimes lonely or upset, make a pot of tea, ask for a few dishes, sit for an hour or two, and the mood will slowly come out of the trough. The dishes are all seafood, Pu Tiancheng himself does not have an appetite for seafood, and it is troublesome to eat, but when a good friend comes, he will try his best to bring it here, because the seafood in the "only place" is indeed chic, and individual dishes cannot be made in the largest hotel in Haizhou.

Shen Xiaoying looked at Pu Tiancheng quietly, obviously, it didn't matter to her what she ate, even if she didn't eat this meal, she would still be very happy, her mind was on Pu Tiancheng. Shen Xiaoying already had a plan to see Pu Tiancheng, but she just didn't have the courage to implement it. It is not easy to meet a person whose status and status are much higher than your own, you have to have enough courage and boldness, and you have to talk a little bit about strategy. In the past, in Jidong, Shen Xiaoying didn't have so many worries, when she wanted to see her, she went directly to the office to find it, and sometimes she was also Dongdong, and invited Pu Tiancheng to dinner. But at this time and at that time, not to mention that she is now down-and-out and has a home, Pu Tiancheng is in the sky, and the future is very big, just the small hurdle in her and Pu Tiancheng's hearts, she can't get over.

Men and women should not have close contact, and they should not get along too well. Harmony breeds things, and density accelerates this breeding process. Pu Tiancheng was a secretary in Jidong and admired Shen Xiaoying very much, and later, this appreciation evolved into love, and for this love, Pu Tiancheng even did not hesitate to annoy Wang Huazhong and others, and let her go beyond the principles to an important post. This moved Shen Xiaoying. Once a woman is moved by a man, it is easy to have love, which often transcends some boundaries and develops in the direction of the flood beast. Shen Xiaoying can't control herself, she can't control it until now, Pu Tiancheng is her idol in her heart, her god, and the status of this god far exceeds that of her husband. The reason why they didn't get to that point was because Pu Tiancheng grasped it well.

Several times, Shen Xiaoying was about to melt into Pu Tiancheng's arms like water, and it was Pu Tiancheng who pushed her away with his hard hands. With this push, Shen Xiaoying had a wound in her heart, and it has not healed until now.

When she was in Jidong, Shen Xiaoying was young and beautiful, and her conscious appearance was above others, coupled with her intelligence and timely pungency, she won the trust and appreciation of Pu Tiancheng. She herself is also confident, and this confidence includes two aspects, one is for work, and the other is to be with Pu Tiancheng. Men and women, something has to happen, and if something doesn't happen, it's very sorry for the years. Now, the years have completely destroyed Shen Xiaoying's self-confidence, and in front of Pu Tiancheng, Shen Xiaoying suddenly became unconfident and had no sense of calm.

A woman's faith is actually very easy to destroy, and nothing else, those wrinkles alone can frustrate all her courage and confidence.

Pu Tiancheng knew what Shen Xiaoying thought, but he didn't say it, there are some things you can chew repeatedly in your heart, but you just can't say it. Pu Tiancheng also knew what Shen Xiaoying saw him for, he was too familiar with Shen Xiaoying, except for her body, which was still very unfamiliar to him, in other aspects, Pu Tiancheng dared to guarantee that he knew her the best in the world. An ambitious woman, a woman who can play at a super level if given a platform, and a woman who is unwilling to be lonely and unwilling to be mediocre. Of course, she is also a tender woman who likes the wind and snow.

In this world, there are two kinds of women you can't touch, and if you do, you will have an accident. One is a woman who is too ambitious and unwilling to be mediocre, and the other is a woman who is not married. These two kinds of women are not just water, but also fire, wildfire.

Men should learn to protect themselves and dare to play with fire without being burned by it.

Pu Tiancheng persuaded Shen Xiaoying to eat fish, and Shen Xiaoying asked, "Why don't you eat it?" Then he tilted his head and looked up at Putiancheng like he looked up at the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Pu Tiancheng said: "My appetite has not been very good lately. "Drink less." Shen Xiaoying said. In Shen Xiaoying's memory, Pu Tiancheng drank an astonishing amount of alcohol and drank very boldly, but she never approved of men being heroes in wine. "Madame is not here, you have to pay attention to your body." Pu Tiancheng smiled, "A big man, what do you pay attention to." The two of them didn't say a word, and they stared at each other in the blank space. In fact, gazing is more substantial than speaking. Pu Tiancheng really wanted to ask Shen Xiaoying's current work or life, but he was afraid that this topic would make Shen Xiaoying sad. Shen Xiaoying is definitely not happy now, since he left Jidong and Xu Zhaohu took over as secretary of the municipal party committee, his original group of people has been neglected one by one, and those who have not been neglected can be regarded as sobering up quickly, adjusted the direction in time, and transferred to Xu Zhaohu's side. Shen Xiaoying has long since left the Radio and Television Bureau, and she is currently the director of the Education, Science, Culture, and Health Commission of the National People's Congress, such an official title is obviously Shen Xiaoying reluctantly accepts.

No matter how good the fish is, if the mood is not on the fish, it will not be delicious. Shen Xiaoying came this time just to tell Pu Tiancheng that she didn't want to work in Jidong anymore, and wanted to come to the provincial capital and come to Pu Tiancheng's side. But this kind of thing, Pu Tiancheng doesn't take the initiative to ask, she really can't say it. Pu Tiancheng's attitude today made her incomprehensible, let's say it's not enthusiastic, he rushed over after work and invited her to dinner kindly; Speaking of enthusiasm, she doesn't feel the intimacy she used to have. She was looking for something to talk about to bring the two closer together, and she felt that there was really a distance between the two, and a hard strangeness was blocking them. But every time she started, she was cleverly stopped by Pu Tiancheng, who obviously didn't want to go deeper on some topics. He's hiding.

Why hide? Until the two returned to the hotel after eating, Shen Xiaoying still couldn't find an answer, and she couldn't find the feeling she wanted. Later they opened red wine. Shen Xiaoying is a suite, the biggest advantage of this kind of room is that the guests feel less crowded and calm. She turned on the music, and in the soft music, she held a glass of red wine for Pu Tiancheng, and she wanted to borrow red wine to create an atmosphere for herself and Pu Tiancheng.

It's better to be romantic.

Pu Tiancheng happily took the wine glass, at this time Pu Tiancheng had some ideas in his heart, if he didn't have an idea, he wouldn't follow him to the hotel. A man whose wife has been away for a long time is difficult to be as calm as water in the face of a pair of eyes that are eager for him. Pu Tiancheng remembered a lot of past events, and remembered the time when he was with Shen Xiaoying before, and that time was very nostalgic. Shen Xiaoying looked at Pu Tiancheng with a faint gaze, her mood was much more relaxed than just now, and she was much more comfortable, she held her wine glass, "Secretary-General, I toast you." She changed you to you, Pu Tiancheng obviously heard it, but pretended not to realize it, and a familiar smile appeared on his face, which was very charming.

"Xiaoying." He screamed. Shen Xiaoying's heart was shocked, her buttocks sat softly beside Pu Tiancheng, opened her red lips, and drank the red wine.

Pu Tiancheng also drank wine, and a lot of words were blocked in his heart, and he didn't know where to start for a while. On such a night, a woman who can be regarded as a confidant made a special trip to accompany him, and Pu Tiancheng's heart was warm and a little damp. His heart is actually tired, entangled by all kinds of things, distressed, troublesome, too often, he wants to hold a wine glass like this, and sit with his beloved woman until dawn.

Is she the woman she loves? Thinking of this question, Pu Tiancheng sighed in distress. Ever since he had that relationship with Jin Yan in Jidong, it seems that it is difficult for him to tolerate other women in his heart. Jin Yan, a little woman, occupied most of his heart in a strange way. He glanced at Shen Xiaoying, Shen Xiaoying actually didn't look old, those fine wrinkles seemed to remind him that this is also a weathered woman, with such a woman, you can be more calm and careless. However, why can't he let go, does he really not like her? No, it's not, he's liked her, and complimenting or appreciating is actually a way to like it, and he's even ......

Time passed slowly in a state of near-static, and the two men sat and drank two bottles of red wine. The alcohol ignited different colors on their faces, and Shen Xiaoying's face was flushed red and wet. Pu Tiancheng's face was a fire-like light, and that light illuminated Shen Xiaoying, making her heart rise one after another. Shen Xiaoying took advantage of the strength of the wine and began to talk about Jidong, she mentioned Xu Zhaohu, Wang Huazhong, and Ma Xiaolin. Although she was cautious and didn't dare to poke Pu Tiancheng's sore spot, Pu Tiancheng still felt that her heart was faintly ringing. When the third bottle of red wine was opened, Pu Tiancheng received a call. Seeing that it was his wife Qiao Ruoxuan calling, Pu Tiancheng was startled, he took the phone and walked out of the room. Qiao Ruoxuan asked, "Where?" Pu Tiancheng said: "Here are the guests, outside." Qiao Ruoxuan said: "I'm annoyed." Pu Tiancheng asked, "What's wrong?" Qiao Ruoxuan said with great emotion: "It's not the Ming Emperor yet." Tiancheng, how can I have a bad premonition that Emperor Ming will have an accident sooner or later. Pu Tiancheng paused for a while, "What can happen, don't think too much." "It's not that I think too much, it's that Geng Minghuang is too arrogant and lawless." It turned out that someone reported that the Minghuang Nightclub was suspected of providing bobblehead tiles for guests, Qiao Ruoxuan felt that this matter was not trivial, so she secretly told the public security department to pay attention to it. Last night, under the pretext of searching for suspects, the public security department suddenly attacked the Minghuang nightclub and SPA fitness center, and as a result, **20 grams and *** three packs were seized on the spot. In addition, in the SPA men's and women's fitness center, it was unexpectedly found that the Ming Emperor provided male and female customers under the age of 18 for their enjoyment. In the women's fitness department, five professional ducks were also found. Before Qiao Ruoxuan could make a decision, how to deal with this matter, Geng Minghuang sued Du Hanwu. In the morning, Du Hanwu talked to Qiao Ruoxuan, and opened and closed his mouth to protect the enterprise and foreign investors, Qiao Ruoxuan really couldn't get used to it, and contradicted a sentence: "They are here to invest, not to sell drugs and organize prostitution." As a result, Du Hanwu hurriedly convened a standing committee and asked Qiao Ruoxuan to show evidence of Ming Huang's drug trafficking and prostitution, and if the evidence was conclusive, he would immediately take measures against Geng Minghuang. Can this kind of evidence be taken to the Standing Committee? Qiao Ruoxuan knew that Du Hanwu was Geng Minghuang's backstage, but there was no way, so she called Pu Tiancheng to ask for advice.

After listening to this, Pu Tiancheng thought seriously for a while, and said: "In this way, you let the public security leave the information that should be left and continue to let the Ming Emperor do business, as if nothing happened." ”

"Is this okay?" Qiao Ruoxuan asked uncertainly.

"Okay, why not. But you must remember that without Du Hanwu's order, never send someone to Emperor Ming again, even if something big happens. ”

"Isn't that conniving at them?" Qiao Ruoxuan was like an isolated and helpless weak person this day, and her tone was no longer as domineering as before.

Pu Tiancheng told his wife like this, until his wife said, "I understand." He said: "I should also go back, it is rude to accompany two important guests in Beijing today, and leave for too long." Qiao Ruoxuan said: "Then you go quickly, drink less wine, I am not there, you have to take care of yourself." ”

Back in the suite, Pu Tiancheng felt a little strange in his heart, he grabbed the wine glass and said: "Come, dry this glass, it's not early, you rest, I have to rush back, I just called, there is an important meeting tomorrow, I have to prepare." ”

The joy on Shen Xiaoying's face immediately stopped, and she changed to a dry expression, "Go back so early?" She didn't believe that the call was from the meeting, she preferred to believe that it was from another woman.

Pu Tiancheng didn't give any more explanation, put down the wine glass and said, "You should go back tomorrow, don't let Jidong gossip." ”

Shen Xiaoying's anticipation for a night was exchanged for such a sentence, she was as stupid as she was there, and as soon as Pu Tiancheng's shadow disappeared, the tears in her eyes came down.

Women are actually very fragile, and the stronger the appearance of a woman, the faster this vulnerability tends to come.

Pu Tiancheng didn't fall asleep this night. When he thought of Shen Xiaoying again, it was already after he called to find out about the situation on Guanghuai's side. Qiao Ruoxuan was right, the public security did search for drugs in Minghuang. There is another situation that Qiao Ruoxuan does not know, Geng Minghuang's subordinates control more than ten underage girls, and half of them are students from Guanghuai's side.

Pu Tiancheng can't understand, why are people so good now?!

After taking a shower and lying on the bed, Shen Xiaoying's eyes with veins and veins came alive in front of him again. Pu Tiancheng admitted that he had a thought about Shen Xiaoying in the hotel just now, and he hadn't moved for so many years, but he was moved strangely tonight, and he really shouldn't have been. Now is the time to move this thought, embattled, the storm will come at any time, and you must not create any chance for your opponent! Fortunately, my wife called in time, otherwise, it would be dangerous!

Also, Shen Xiaoying must be allowed to work with peace of mind, and he can no longer think about it, before the situation is completely clear, none of his lines can be moved!

Secretary Hanlin presided over a joint meeting, which was held very suddenly, and Secretary Hanlin did not reveal any information to anyone before, including Pu Tiancheng, who received a call from Secretary Hanlin ten minutes before the meeting.

The day before the meeting, Secretary Hanlin had been to Dahua Haidong, and at that time, Deputy Secretary Chaoran wanted to accompany him, and Secretary Hanlin said: "You don't have to go, I'll take a look at it." After speaking, he left with the two comrades of the General Office and the Political Research Office. Pu Tiancheng was in the office at that time, and it was the secretary Cao Xiaoan who told him. Pu Tiancheng also thought to himself, Secretary Hanlin suddenly went to the scene to investigate, could it be that Dahua sued again? Nowadays, the enterprise is the boss, and the problems of the enterprise have often become the top priority on the leadership table, especially these foreign-funded enterprises, as soon as they arrive in a certain place, they immediately show their noble status. Pu Tiancheng can't say whether he has a good impression or a bad feeling towards Dahua, but he has opinions on Dahua in solving the problems left by the workers of Yimao and Sanmao, especially the delay in the implementation of the promised 200 million, which makes Pu Tiancheng have some ideas in his heart. But these thoughts only dared to exist when he was squatting alone in the office and pondering, and he would never dare to show them in public. Dahua has been very active in China in recent years, and has invested in several provinces, including Shanghai and Beijing, and the domestic media has paid great attention to it. The fact that a foreign company can do a prosperous business in China speaks for itself, and on Dahua's side, there is also an outstanding Qiu Yanni.

Pu Tiancheng waited for a day, when Secretary Hanlin was active in the provincial capital, he usually followed, but this time Secretary Hanlin didn't call him, which made him a little uneasy. Later, he thought that it might have something to do with Zheng Binyuan. Secretary Hanlin didn't want the outside world to know about his relationship with Zheng Binyuan, which was very troublesome. It wasn't until four o'clock in the afternoon that Dong Wu, Secretary Hanlin's secretary, called, saying that Secretary Hanlin had finished talking with Dahua and would have a banquet for Dahua's senior management in the afternoon. Pu Tiancheng hurriedly asked: "Did the secretary say no, where is the specific arrangement?" Dong Wu said: "The secretary only explained, went to Yunhai Villa, and didn't say anything else." Pu Tiancheng pulled Deputy Secretary-General Li Yuan and Director of the Reception Office Guo Mu and rushed to Yunhai Villa. Yunhai Villa is also a foreign-funded enterprise, five years ago by the Taiwanese businessman Ouyang Yunlan investment and construction, these years, some important receptions in the province, sometimes arranged here, the annual two sessions, Yunhai Villa is also one of the main venues.

When Pu Tiancheng and the others arrived at Yunhai Villa, Yu Chuanqing and Deputy Secretary-General Qiu, who were in charge of the reception work, were already waiting in the hall. Seeing Pu Tiancheng, Yu Chuanqing came over and whispered: "It's all ready, it was arranged by Comrade Lu Bo." As soon as he heard Lu Bo, Pu Tiancheng understood in his heart that today's banquet was made by the ** side. He didn't want to intervene, so he asked briefly about the situation and wanted to go back. Yu Chuanqing said: "Since you're here, don't go, I have arranged a table in Building No. 2, and everyone can sit together?" Pu Tiancheng didn't dare to really go back, in case Secretary Hanlin looked for him halfway, he was not around, it would be difficult to explain, so he nodded and went to Building No. 2 with Guo Mu and them. As soon as he sat down, the convoy came in, and Li Yuan wanted to go out to greet him, but was stopped by Pu Tiancheng: "What are you going to do to join in the fun?" Li Yuan consciously acted a little recklessly, smiled at Pu Tiancheng embarrassedly, his eyes looked outside, but the person retreated. Pu Tiancheng stiffened his face and didn't talk to anyone. There are a total of seven cars, in addition to Secretary Hanlin and Governor Lu Bo, there are also one each of the Political Research Office and the General Office, and the rest are from Dahua. Pu Tiancheng unexpectedly saw Yu Shilun, vice president of the Party School, who got out of the car in the political research room and walked beside Secretary Hanlin generously. I haven't seen him for a few days, Yu Shilun seems to be a different person, compared with the time in the party school, he is more like the secretary general who often accompanies the secretary. Pu Tiancheng felt a sense of astringency in his heart, and twisted his face a little awkwardly. He knew that Secretary Hanlin would not call him for today's banquet, so he also relieved himself and said to Guo Mu: "Let them serve food, even if we celebrate today." ”

During the meal, no one spoke, only the sound of the utensils could be heard, and the waiter opened the red wine, but no one raised a glass. No one's mind was on this table, and everyone looked to the side of Building One from time to time, and then retracted it emptyly. The role of the secretary general, to say that the most painful thing is not working, but eating. Sometimes the leader has a dinner or banquet, and it is a good thing to take the initiative to notify you, no matter how you behave at the dinner, there is no psychological burden, after all, you are with the leader. The difficult thing is that at this time, the leader does not inform you, and you can't figure out whether you should go or not. Today's occasion is a little better, at least Yu Chuanqing goes, and he will report at any time. More often than not, they wait like migratory birds, keeping their eyes glued to the phone, for fear that they will miss a sound if they are not careful.

The banquet ended at ten o'clock in the evening, and the strange thing is that they were still staring at Building No. 1 just now, and when the banquet ended, and the leaders were about to walk out of the banquet hall, they all became turtles with shrunken heads, and they all hid in the corners of the private room, for fear that the leader's eyes would sweep over and find them. It wasn't until the car outside went quiet that Pu Tiancheng was the first to come out and call the driver, who started the car from a large shade like a ghost. Pu Tiancheng got into the car and received a text message from Yu Chuanqing: No. 1 took Qiu's car and left, everything was normal.

Gone in Autumn's car? Pu Tiancheng seemed to smile wisely, and then closed the phone. Everything is normal, and it proves that he is right not to show up today. When he got home, Pu Tiancheng felt his stomach rumbling, he took less than five mouthfuls of the dishes on the table just now, rummaged through them in the refrigerator, there was nothing ready-made, and he wanted to eat at the night market downstairs, and he felt sleepy, so he had to open a packet of milk, which was considered to satisfy his hunger.

This night, Pu Tiancheng thought of a question, the position of the director of the Political Research Office, which has been vacant, seems to be Yu Shilun's. He took out the phone and sent a text message to his old friend and old partner Liao Changping: Things have changed, you better find another seat.

According to Yu Chuanqing later, the matter was decided at the banquet that night, Secretary Hanlin and Governor Lu Bo had the same opinion, and the two reached an agreement with a few simple words at the dinner table. It's just that conversations on such occasions are often more confidential than those of the Standing Committee, and no one dares to leak the slightest rumor.

The meeting was held in the conference room on the fifth floor of the west of the provincial party committee, and Pu Tiancheng found that Secretary Hanlin and Governor Lu Bo came earlier than usual that day, and they were already sitting on the rostrum before the other members of the Standing Committee arrived. Pu Tiancheng instructed the staff to make tea and pour water, while observing Secretary Hanlin. Secretary Hanlin's head was always buried in the pile of papers, and the sound of coming and going in the conference room couldn't disturb him. Governor Lubo didn't bring any materials, but he held his phone and kept texting. Executive Vice Governor Zhou Guoping also came early, and looked around, looking for his seat card. In different meetings, the way of placing the seat cards is inconsistent, except for the No. 1 leader on both sides, others attending the meeting must be habitually looked at. One is to see your own position; Second, I also want to see who is ranked more prominent than myself this time. Any small movement of seats is a signal, which contains infinitely rich content, which is the same as the appearance of TV and newspapers. Those who master this content, except for the No. 1 leaders on both sides, I am afraid that Pu Tiancheng and Yu Chuanqing are left. When Deputy Secretary Ma Chaoran came in, there were already more than half of the people sitting on the rostrum, Ma Chaoran seemed to be dissatisfied with his seat, originally he was next to Secretary Hanlin, but today because of the leadership of the National People's Congress and the CPPCC, his seat is a little sideline. And for the first time in the middle, there are two more old leaders who have retired.

Inviting the two old leaders to come is what Secretary Hanlin meant.

"Today's meeting, the scope of this meeting will be appropriately expanded, and we will also listen to the opinions of the old comrades." Just such a sentence made Ma Chaoran a lot farther away from the middle of the rostrum.

The meeting was presided over by Secretary Hanlin, who first made a pertinent analysis of the current economic situation of the province, especially the situation of industrial enterprises, and believed that the economic situation is not optimistic, the industrial enterprises are in arrears with heavy tasks, the pace of development is slow, the situation is quite urgent, and there is no room for sloppiness and carelessness. Then the conversation changed and talked about Dahua Haidong, he said: "Dahua Haidong was recruited from the top of the competition as a major part of attracting investment, and the provincial party committee and the province spent a lot of effort for this. Dahua's settlement in Haidong is of far-reaching significance, but in terms of the current operation, the progress is not ideal, which is highlighted in two aspects, one is that the top-down attention is not enough, and there is no correct understanding or implementation of the intention of the provincial party committee and the provincial government. Individual comrades are still skeptical about the policy of attracting investment, and they are paralyzed ideologically and slow in action. The second is that there is no way to solve the problem, and there are not many solutions, or they do not want to solve it at all. As a result, the existing contradictions have become more acute, affecting or restricting the development of Dahua Haidong. ”

Hearing this, Pu Tiancheng suddenly thought that Secretary Hanlin was going to have a showdown with Deputy Secretary Chaoran, and he was shocked, and he couldn't help but set his eyes on Ma Chaoran's side. Ma Chaoran obviously didn't realize that today would be such a meeting, and Secretary Hanlin pointed the finger at him as soon as he opened his mouth, which surprised and sudden. When Secretary Hanlin spoke, he wiped his sweat while pretending to be calm and straightened up. Many people heard the meaning of Secretary Hanlin's words and turned their eyes to it, and Ma Chaoran became the target of public criticism for a while.

Pu Tiancheng noticed that there were two people in the venue who didn't move their eyes, looking ahead from beginning to end. One is Governor Lu Bo, and the other is Executive Vice Governor Zhou Guoping.

Pu Tiancheng seems to have seen the answer before others.

Secretary Hanlin's loud voice still resounded in the conference room, and everyone seemed to no longer care about what Secretary Hanlin said, but looked forward to what the outcome of today's meeting would be. This is a major feature of high-level meetings, as soon as the main leader speaks, it is equivalent to setting the tone for the meeting, as for what he talks about specifically, how long he talks, it is secondary, it is to pave the way for the final result, and for the participants, the result is the most important.

Secretary Hanlin's speech is coming to an end, he said: "Dahua Haidong used to be our highlight, and now it is, this company has brought us challenges and tests, including the placement of Yimao and Sanmao workers and the solution of legacy problems, and it is also a test for our provincial party committee and provincial government." The 12 points discussed last year must be implemented unconditionally. We are responsible for more than 50,000 employees of the two enterprises, and we must put ourselves in their shoes, they have dedicated their youth and talents to the enterprise, and some have even dedicated most of their lives. I would like to emphasize that in addition to the 12 articles, for several hot issues raised by employees recently, we will come up with specific opinions and implement them one by one. ”

With that, he handed the microphone to Governor Lubo. Governor Lu Bo habitually coughed, and then continued to follow the topic of Secretary Hanlin.

To see whether the governor of a province and the secretary of the provincial party committee cooperate well, there is no need to study their background, nor do you need to explore their political views, as long as you pay attention to their performance at the meeting, you can judge that everything is not far from ten. After Lu Bo served as the governor, he continued to maintain the style he had when he was the secretary of the municipal party committee in Haizhou, doing things vigorously and resolutely, and never dragging his feet. What should be decided will be made at the first time. We neither evade nor shirk difficult hot spots and major sensitive issues, and can always come up with unexpected solutions. But the only thing that is not the same as before is that he knows how to move from the first to the second-in-command. Although the provincial governor is the supreme chief executive of a province, he is actually in the position of second-in-command in the province. When he needs to charge, he is the protagonist, and when he needs to sing a joint play, he is a supporting role. This role is difficult to grasp, too decisive, and will make the real leader feel threatened, and he can't be resolute when he is sharp; If you are too obedient, indecisive, and don't dare to make decisions about big and small things, it makes people feel that you lack courage and are not the material for the government. Governor Lubo was able to do this with ease, demonstrating his political skills and adaptability. At each meeting, he was able to fully safeguard the authority of Secretary Hanlin, and at the same time embody his thoughts and will, which made people listen to both disobedience and pragmatism.

Governor Lu Bo spoke very briefly, he emphasized two things, one is to do it according to the instructions of Secretary Hanlin without discount, resolutely remove the obstacles in front of Dahua Haidong, and ensure that the project is completed on schedule and put into operation smoothly; The second is to make a great determination to solve the remaining problems of one and three mao, and will set up a special working group to implement them one by one, and never allow collective petitions or gathering crowds to make trouble again.

When Pu Tiancheng heard this, he was relieved, with Lu Bo's statement, the province would take out another 100 million or 200 million, and it would also solve the problem of one and three cents.

Next up is the speakers. At this time, the secretary general can relax for a while, because the tone of the meeting has already been set, and let everyone speak, just to fully demonstrate democracy, and also let the two veteran comrades invited today relive the feelings of the past. Pu Tiancheng got up and left the venue. At any meeting, the Secretary-General has the freedom to leave the meeting at any time, because in the meeting, he is a service type, similar to the nature of a service person, so no leader thinks that it is inappropriate for the Secretary-General to leave. Of course, you also have to grasp the opportunity, if Secretary Hanlin and Governor Lu Bo speak, if you leave, the nature will be different.

Pu Tiancheng moved his muscles and bones in the corridor, recently he has some problems with his lumbar spine, it hurts to sit for a long time, and his left leg is also a little numb and sleepy. He was about to go to the bathroom, and Yu Chuanqing came out. The two looked at each other and smiled, there was no language, but there was no language. On the way to the bathroom, Yu Chuanqing whispered: "Yu Qing's work is solved and she stays in the Victory Hotel." ”

Pu Tianqing was stunned: "Which Yu Qing?" ”

Yu Chuanqing smiled, "I forgot it so quickly, I ...... it last time in Taoyuan"

Pu Tiancheng sighed, he really forgot about it.

At this day's meeting, Secretary Hanlin really announced a new decision, he said: "In view of the fact that the provincial party committee is about to carry out the inspection of party style and party discipline in the province, and at the same time summarize the anti-corruption work in the previous stage, Comrade Chaoran is not in charge of the work of the Dahua Haidong project for the time being, and Comrade Guoping is fully responsible for the project." ”

Although such an ending had long been expected, it was really announced by Secretary Hanlin himself, and Pu Tiancheng was still a little shocked.

When Ma Chaoran left the venue, his face was dark and blue.
