Jialiang finally married Guofeng.

The signing ceremony, Pan Xiangming and Zhao Naizin were not present. Pan Xiangming went to participate in the work seminar jointly held by the Political Research Office of the Provincial Party Committee, the magazine "Theoretical Research" and the theoretical edition of "Haidong Daily". The seminar was of a very high standard, and the organizers not only invited a large group of writers from the theoretical circles of Haidong Province, but also invited three well-known theorists in the capital, and heard that Secretary Yuhao was going to come to the seminar in person, and as soon as Pan Xiangming got the news, he rushed to the provincial capital overnight. Two hours before departure, he called Meng Dongran and solicited Meng Dongran's opinion on the speech prepared at the seminar, Meng Dongran briefly talked about his own thoughts, and said to Secretary Ming: "Thank you, Dongran, you have to go to this seminar, but you see, no work can be separated from you now, I think you are more important than me as a secretary." Meng Dongran hurriedly shook his head: "The secretary is joking, how dare I compare with the secretary?" Pan Xiangming didn't politely say anything more: "Okay, when this meeting is over, you can discuss it with Lao Xue of the Political Research Office and them, and do it again in the city, so you can cooperate with the spirit of Secretary Yuhao's speech." Meng Dongran was about to make a statement, Pan Xiangming turned his head and talked about Jialiang: "Your adjustment in Jialiang's acquisition is very important, I support it, and the work should be like this, and we must join forces." Time is pressing, I won't say much, let it go, Tongjiang needs a tiger general like you. ”

Meng Dongran didn't know where Secretary Xiang Ming's support came from, and he couldn't hear the hypocrisy from Secretary Xiang Ming's words, everything seemed to be covered in fog, the important thing was that this matter was finally settled.

Zhao Naizin was also going to attend the seminar, and the secretary's masterpiece was announced, so he, the mayor, had to go to congratulate, not only to congratulate, but also to rush to the provincial capital Zhang Luo in advance. It's a pity that when he left, he received a notice that a deputy director of the Provincial People's Congress wanted to come to Tongjiang for investigation, and asked him to stay in Tongjiang. In order to satisfy Secretary Xiang Ming, Zhao Naizin also specially sent the first deputy director of the Finance Bureau to be an assistant to Vice Mayor Xu.

Regarding the marriage between Jialiang and Guofeng, Zhao Naizin didn't even say a word, when Meng Dongran reported to him, he just listened with the expression on his face, and after listening, he gave Meng Dongran five words: "Just do it." ”

These five words sound so reluctant, so insincere. Meng Dongran didn't explain much, looked at Zhao Naizin's gray face, and forced a smile: "It's up to people to make things happen, and it's up to heaven to make things happen, this time it's cheaper for Sun Guofeng." ”

Sun Guofeng wanted to make the signing ceremony very big, but Meng Dongran resolutely opposed it, and he said to Li Kaiwang: "In a special period, everything is simple, even if the company spends money." As a result, the signing ceremony was uneventful, not at all like two large companies merging.

Chen Jia's conscience was unhappy, from the moment he received the call from Xie Huamin announcing his withdrawal, a cloud appeared on his face, and the cloud has not dispersed until now. Helplessly, Xie Huamin had made up his mind, and the day after announcing his withdrawal, Xie Huamin left Tongjiang, and it is said that he went to **.

"What the hell has happened, Director Meng, you have to tell me clearly." Chen Jialiang repeatedly asked Meng Dongran, and Meng Dongran replied very vaguely: "I really don't understand a woman's mind, I just change when I say it, and I didn't give an explanation, but the national style is very good, congratulations Chen Dong." ”

Chen Jialiang reluctantly did the business, and as soon as the ceremony was over, he didn't eat any food and quickly left Tongjiang.

He was afraid that He Bixin would be entangled again. It's easy to get a woman in your hands, but it's not as simple as you think. Chen Jialiang finally left five percent of the equity in Jialiang to He Bixin, and the rest was transferred to Sun Guofeng at one time, and asked Sun Guofeng to give He Bixin a position that he could afford at his discretion.

The next day, Meng Dongran was notified to participate in the work report meeting held by the Municipal People's Congress, and only then did he know that the deputy director of the provincial people's greater than the deputy director went to Tongjiang this time, focusing on investigating the construction of the Tongjiang project, especially the half-pulled project with large opinions. Meng Dongran secretly took a breath of cold air, judging from the materials at hand, the focus of this investigation is the project introduced by Mayor Zhao Naizin, or the project that Zhao Naizin intervened in. In addition to the previous two communities, there were several more projects, all of which were built by Chu Jianfei of Dongfang Road and Bridge.

Meng Dongran instinctively thought of another layer, could it be that the rumors a few days ago were true, Vice Governor Luo really had an accident? Some time ago, it was said that Vice Governor Luo was involved in the largest land case in the province, and Huang Guorui, a large real estate developer and the boss of Guorui Group, who won the "land king" of the province in one fell swoop last year, suddenly died mysteriously one month after getting the land king. Some people say that Huang Guorui was victimized by competitors, because the luxury land located in the prosperous area of the Dongjiang River in the provincial capital alarmed real estate developers all over the country, and most of the competitors came with the confidence of winning, and Huang Guorui's victory made others very uncomfortable; Some people also say that Huang Guorui was victimized by insiders of interest groups, and that the family business Guorui Group has serious problems in distribution, and infighting is no longer news; A few days later, Huang Guorui's wife and daughter revealed to the media that Huang Guorui had left a suicide note before his death, saying that he had been intimidated by a senior official as early as half a year ago, and the day after he seized the land king, Huang Guorui was pressured by the senior official to try to get back a deadly document left in Huang Guorui's hands, which involved many secrets of Guorui Group's acquisition of a piece of land in the provincial capital at a low price two years ago. As soon as the media exposed it, some people immediately associated the senior official with Luo Shuaiwu, a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and vice governor, because the auction of the land two years ago was related to Luo Shuaiwu. Almost at the same time, many problems related to Luo Shuaiwu's tenure as secretary of the Dongjiang Municipal Party Committee were also exposed, especially the safety accident during the construction of the Dongjiang No. 3 bridge and the untimely deaths of 16 migrant workers. The rumors made the provincial capital uneasy, and also caused more people below to fall into sleepless nights...... But to this day, Luo Shuaiwu is still on the stage, and there is no ending that was taken away by "Shuanggui" as rumored, and everything about Luo Shuaiwu has become a huge mystery fog covering the political arena in Haidong.

And this time the deputy director of the National People's Congress, Yu Jinliang, was Luo Shuaiwu's deputy, when Luo Shuaiwu served as the secretary of the Dongjiang Municipal Party Committee, he was the mayor of Dongjiang, and the feud between the two spread as early as the Dongjiang River, and later Yu Jinliang arrived at the Provincial People's Congress, and the two also launched a series of struggles. At this time, Yu Jinliang went to Tongjiang to investigate, and specifically aimed at the Dongfang Road and Bridge repair project, which could not help but make people think more.

Meng Dongran sat at the venue, his heart was pounding, what Chang Guoan and others said on stage, he didn't listen to a word, and his mind was all about Zhao Naizin's situation. In good conscience, Dongfang Road and Bridge was able to get so many projects in Tongjiang, all because Vice Governor Luo and Secretary Yu Haiyang were at work, and as for Zhao Naizin and Chu Jianfei, Meng Dongran believed that it was clean. At least they haven't established that kind of alliance of interests between them, but some things are difficult to tell from the insider, and in the bidding and contracting of the project, the insider is often hiding on the other side, a look and a phone call, you can decide where the project goes, but can you use the look or the phone to excuse yourself?

The debriefing meeting was almost a criticism meeting, Chang Guoan was in high spirits and high spirits that day, and his performance at the debriefing meeting once again made Meng Dongran feel terrified, it turned out that the struggle could be so bloody!

After the meeting, Meng Dongran excused himself from his old unit, politely declined Chang Guoan's invitation to let him accompany the guest, returned to the office with a complicated mood, and sat quietly for a while behind closed doors. Zhao Naizin's gray and gloomy face tormented him, and it also tugged at his heart again and again. Later, he sent a text message to Zhao Naizin, tactfully asking him if he was free at night and wanted to invite the mayor for a cup of tea? After waiting for a long time and no response, I tried to call the phone, but was told that the other party had turned off the phone.

Shutdown? Meng Dongran's heart was shocked, since Zhao Naizin came to Tongjiang, his mobile phone has never been turned off, is it? He quickly called Zhao Naizin's secretary Xu Liang again, but unfortunately, the same prompt tone came from the mobile phone.

Not good! Meng Dongran couldn't sit still for a moment, paced back and forth in the house for a while, and decided to go to the provincial capital overnight. Any slight and weak change in officialdom may lead to the ups and downs of the fate of a large number of people, not to mention the current grim situation!

Ten minutes later, the car left Tongjiang and headed for the provincial capital Dongjiang. Meng Dongran sent a text message to Mei Ying, asking her not to arrange activities at night and wait for him in Furong Palace. Later, he sent a text message to Han Qiuyan, the proprietress of Furong Palace, saying that she would arrive in the provincial capital in three hours, and she would have to trouble her to entertain her.

The latter text message didn't really ask Han Qiuyan to prepare any wine and food, but told Han Qiuyan to send a car to pick it up. Meng Dongran didn't want people to see him go to the provincial capital overnight, let alone meet any familiar faces in a place like Furong Palace. Although Han Qiuyan only opened a hotel, after a long time, she was able to reach a tacit understanding with Meng Dongran and them, knowing what these people like to publicize and hide. Before the car crossed the No. 2 bridge, Meng Dongran saw Han Qiuyan's car waiting in the parking lot next to the bridge.

Han Qiuyan was waiting in the car, and when Meng Dongran saw her, she felt her heart warm, and the nerves that had been tense all the way relaxed slightly. When he arrived at the hotel, Mei Ying was already waiting for him.

"What's going on?" Mei Ying asked, personally handing him a towel and letting him wipe his sweat.

"Something doesn't taste right, I want to find out." Meng Dongran told the truth.

"It's too sensitive, the province is going to be the deputy director of the personal congress, you are nervous like this, what if the governor or secretary goes?" Mei Ying smiled deliberately, in order to make Meng Dongran completely relaxed.

"You know I don't have a city government, we are small, and we can't see big people."

"I thought it was your secretary and mayor escorting." Mei Ying took the tea set from Han Qiuyan and personally poured tea for Meng Dongran. Han Qiuyan left with a sense of humor and took the opportunity to close the door.

"What's the matter, Mayor Zhao is here too?" Meng Dongran was a little surprised. Mei Ying nodded and said, "Half an hour earlier than you, with Secretary Jin of the Commission for Discipline Inspection." ”

Meng Dong sighed, so it was! The wife of Secretary Jin of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection is a college classmate with Mei Ying, and this news seems to be wrong.

Mei Ying continued: "It seems that you all suspect that something is going to happen to that person, but the Tongjiang people still can't hold their breath." ”

"Wouldn't it?" Meng Dongran raised his head, Mei Ying's composure and indifferent tone made his heart more and more full of doubts, and he was powerless to see through the fog that permeated the sky over the provincial capital.

"It's not that easy." Mei Ying sighed with a smile and said mockingly: "You haven't been in officialdom for a day or two, listening to the wind is rain, where has your IQ gone?" ”

"The wind is too strong, I'm afraid it will affect Mayor Zhao Naizin."

"If a person is affected, it proves that he is not suitable to stay in this circle, and it is reasonable to be out. You're not a lifeguard, you're not a firefighter, don't make this kind of messy thing happen in the future, it's a joke. ”

"I see." Meng Dongran said sincerely, Mei Ying's words sounded like criticizing him, but in fact he was implying that whether that person could have an accident or not was still a mystery, since it was a mystery, don't guess, because you are not the one who reveals the riddle.

"That's all for this, I don't know how many things are going on, everyone is watching the play, before the stage is demolished, we are all actors, understand? It's someone else's business to jump someone else's business, what are you panicking about? ”

"I see." Meng Dongran's hanging heart landed at this time. He believed that similar words could be heard by Zhao Naizin tonight.

Mei Ying asked Meng Dongran if he had eaten, Meng Dongran honestly said that he hadn't eaten, which was also strange, he didn't feel hungry all the way, but his stomach was screaming very badly at this time. Mei Ying asked Han Qiuyan to prepare the meal, and the two talked about the project again, and Mei Ying told Meng Dongran that the Tongjiang sewage treatment project would meet next week.

"This project has been dragging on for a few years, and I hope to implement it this time. Tongjiang water treatment is a topic, it is better to do something practical for people than to worry about others, I don't believe that those two communities are so difficult to solve. ”

woke up Meng Dongran with a word, and Meng Dongran understood why Mei Ying always mentioned sewage treatment projects. It seems that he, the director of the National Development and Reform Commission, is still far from Mei Ying.

Distance is actually a reference, a scrutiny, and a goal.

Meng Dongran returned to Tongjiang overnight, but Mei Ying kept him and wanted him to stay for a night before leaving, after all, walking at night was not at ease. Meng Dongran said: "I can't let people find me tomorrow. Mei Ying smiled knowingly when she heard this.

Early the next morning, Meng Dongran came to the office and wanted to re-read the information of the sewage treatment project. The project was determined in Hu Bingying's hands, but due to various reasons, the project has not been approved. One of the important reasons is that Chang Guoan has a big opinion on this project. Sewage treatment can't be separated from Su Hongyan's water company, Chang Guoan is not happy, and Su Hongyan is not active. If you are not active, the project will not take the initiative to your hands, otherwise how can it be called "running the project"? As soon as he opened the information, the phone rang, and Zhao Naizin asked him to go up.

At this time, it was not yet seven o'clock, the entire office building was quiet, and Meng Dongran walked in the corridor, his footsteps were particularly loud. He thought that Zhao Naizin must have come back overnight, maybe in this city, there is no second person besides him who knows that Mayor Zhao Naizin went to the provincial capital last night.

How many secrets are hidden behind the truth?

Zhao Naizin looks more energetic than yesterday, it turns out that he has a haircut, and his hair, which was slightly long yesterday, is neat and refreshing at the moment, and he is much more capable.

"It's early." Zhao Naizin said.

"Mayor, you're earlier." Meng Dongran's gaze touched that of his secretary Xu Liang, and then they immediately separated, looking at Zhao Naizin.

"The province is going to hold an on-site observation meeting, and there are a few things I want to tell you." Zhao Naizin said, handing a fax to Meng Dongran. Meng Dongran looked at it, the fax was sent by the provincial ** General Office, to the effect that the provincial government plans to hold a province-wide on-site observation meeting next month to grasp the development of projects, expand domestic demand and actively respond to the financial crisis, focusing on observing and inspecting Tongjiang High-tech Industrial Zone and several key projects under construction, promoting experience, and looking for deficiencies.

This observation meeting is too timely, and it is enough to prove that the province is positive about Tongjiang's work, especially the series of response measures taken after the outbreak of the financial crisis, which seems to have been approved by the provincial government. And this observation meeting is very meaningful, Meng Dongran couldn't help but think of another layer, the high-level leaders in the province are now inconsistent in tune, the National People's Congress is picking thorns, but it is pasting gold, it is really lively.

Meng Dongran suppressed this secret joy in his heart, and said very calmly: "It seems that it will be busy for a while, the mayor commands, we will try our best to make preparations." ”

Zhao Naizin arranged some key contents of the observation meeting, and Meng Dongran habitually wrote them down in his notebook, wrote down the main points, and asked a sentence or two, for fear that he would miss something. Secretary Xu Liang also took a notebook next to him and cooperated with Meng Dongran.

After Zhao Naizin finished speaking, Meng Dongran put away his notebook and stared at the pot of Yueji blooming in front of the window: "The pot in my office died a few days ago, but the mayor's pot is blooming so brightly." ”

Zhao Naizin smiled softly: "It's because you don't like flowers, I didn't see you watering and fertilizing flowers." ”

Meng Dongran walked to the flowers and stared at them decently for a long time: "No, it's not a matter of watering and fertilizing, it's a variety, the mayor's variety is obviously better than mine, right, Secretary Xu?" ”

Secretary Xu Liang didn't understand why Meng Dongran was talking about flowers, so he said thoughtlessly: "How can I have so much knowledge, I know that they are all flowers." ”

"No, Secretary Xu, flowers are not the same as flowers, let's just say this moon season, there are thousands of varieties, the name is Shengchun, thin guest, periwinkle, moon red, etc., the function of the moon season is not only the fragrance of flowers, makes people happy, comfortable mood, but also can absorb harmful gases, and it also has the effect of invigorating blood and menstruation for women, mayor, I am right?"

"When did Director Meng become an expert in flower cultivation again?" Zhao Naizin also walked over, and the two looked at the blooming moon season together. In fact, when does this flower bloom and how long can it bloom, Zhao Naizin never pays attention to it, how can he have this thought. Listening to Meng Dongran talking about flowers, I felt that the pot of flowers in front of me was really beautiful, and the proud appearance made people feel that it was the king of flowers. Looking at it, Zhao Naizin suddenly understood that Meng Dongran was not talking about flowers, but about things, and he was using flowers to adjust his mood. Zhao Naizin had a different taste in his heart, the fog was vast, as if he was filled with something. For a long time, he gave Meng Dongran a grateful look, when he was talking about work just now, he really didn't control his voice well, although he only faced two people, and they were all people around him, it still made Meng Dongran hear the nervousness, uneasiness or resentment of competing with anyone, these are all manifestations of psychological immaturity, especially now, absolutely unacceptable.

Zhao Naizin smiled to himself and retracted his gaze, he should be able to calm down, it's not a big deal, so many stormy waves have come over, and I'm afraid of this little drizzle. If someone wants to tickle, let him scratch it, just scratch it. He looked out the window, it was another sunny day in Tongjiang today, the sky was blue and transparent, the air was so fresh and comfortable, Zhao Naizin heard the voice in his body again, it was the sound of forcing people to do something, and it was the sound of people breaking through some kind of confinement and letting go......

"Yueyuehong, periwinkle, this is the first time I've heard these names, I can't imagine that our chief director is still a flower messenger. By the way, recently, Teacher Ye, when she was free, she called her up and went on an outing together. Zhao Naizin regained his former calmness and optimism, and the expression on his face became vivid and natural.

Meng Dongran laughed twice: "Okay, I'll tell her when I go back, don't let her down when the time comes." ”

"When did I disappoint her, I'm afraid you'll disappoint her."

Seeing that the two leaders were talking and laughing about family affairs, the secretary Xu Liang went out with interest. From yesterday to now, Secretary Xu Liang's heart has been lifted, and now it's good, and the chief has a smile on his face again.

In the next two days, Zhao Naizin and Meng Dongran have been accompanying the deputy director and the research team. No matter how ugly Deputy Director Yu's face was and how uncomfortable his speech was, Zhao Naizin had a consistent smile on his face. Chang Guoan maintained an aggressive posture at first, but later saw that Zhao Naizin didn't care at all, and people were very calm, but they confused him.

On the day the research team left Tongjiang, Zhao Naizin held a banquet on behalf of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Party Committee to entertain others. The banquet was held in the Tongjiang Hotel, and the secretary-general and deputy secretary-general of the four major teams were all busy, and after the host and guest were in place, they found that Chang Guoan, director of the National People's Congress, had not come. Zhao Naizin asked Meng Dongran to make a phone call and take the initiative to ask, Meng Dongran said: "It's not okay for me to please, let's let Secretary-General Qiao personally invite." ”

Zhao Naizin heard this, looked at Meng Dongran for a minute, and then smiled heartily: "Okay, then work hard for Liangyu, Dongran will toast with me." ”

The waves stirred up by the research team of the National People's Congress in Tongjiang can be described as frightening, like a wave, rushing and then there is no movement, and for a long time after that, no one in Tongjiang has mentioned this matter. It is said that after the seminar, Secretary Yuhao of the Provincial Party Committee took half an hour to meet with Secretary Xiang Ming, and the two exchanged views on the future development direction of Haidong's economy and how to make Haidong bigger and stronger. Secretary Xiang Ming played well, up and down, talking eloquently, and Secretary Yuhao listened very satisfied. It is indeed surprising that an article can achieve such an effect.
