As soon as Tian Liye went to work in the morning, he ran into Liu Yiru in the corridor before he walked into his office.

Liu Yiru pretended to be surprised and asked: "Yo, Secretary General Tian, look, there are still five or six minutes left, why did you come to work?" Why don't you take advantage of the cool morning to get some more sleep? ”

Tian Liye said seriously: "I have changed my ways, and I will learn from you Director Liu from now on......"

At this time, Gao Changhe went upstairs with a briefcase, and when he saw Tian Liye, he immediately said: "Oh, Secretary General Tian, I was looking for you, come over here!" ”

Liu Yiru smiled mysteriously at Tian Liye and left.

Tian Liye followed Gao Changhe into the office nervously and asked, "What's the matter, Secretary Gao?" ”

Gao Changhe sat down at the desk by himself, and also asked Tian Liye to sit down, took out a thin book from his briefcase, put it on the table, and said, "Talk to you casually." ”

Tian Liye noticed that the book Gao Changhe took out was his second collection of essays, "Also Counted".

Gao Changhe pointed to the book and said with a smile: "Secretary General Tian, if you don't give me this book, I still gave it to Yazheng, and asked Director Liu to ask for a copy at the reception." Yes, yes, the hypnotic effect is better, and I fell asleep without Ya. ”

Tian Liye was very angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it, so he only said: "I can let your leading comrades sleep well, and I will be a little comforted, so I didn't write in vain." ”

Gao Changhe picked up the book and flipped through it, and looked at the copyright page: "Oh, two thousand copies were printed, have they all been sold to our municipal party committee and the city's ** reception?" ”

Tian Liye shook his head: "I bought a thousand copies at the reception, and I bought the thousand copies myself, what?" Secretary Gao, are you going to fight against my corruption? ”

Gao Changhe smiled: "I didn't think about it, I really didn't." A thousand books are only a few thousand dollars, even if you want to fight against your corruption, you don't need me to catch it personally, how can you use a cattle slaughtering knife to kill chickens? Besides, it is better for comrades to read more books, even if they are books that make people doze off, than to drink more. Thousands of dollars to drink once and drink it once, it's better to buy some of your books and give them away, it also seems that our Pingyang Municipal Party Committee has a lot of talents, isn't it? ”

Although Tian Liye knew that his trouble would come sooner or later, he really didn't expect it to come so quickly, and it would be in this kind of thing. From this point of view, intellectuals are really handy with intellectuals. The old secretary can't say that Gao Changhe is so expert and so "funny", which makes you grit your teeth with hatred, but it is not easy to attack.

Gao Changhe poured himself a glass of water, and also poured a glass for Tian Liye, his words were so harsh, but the smile on his face was very natural: "Of course, Secretary General Tian, you can also be unconvinced, and you can also think that your book is very well written, even as good as Mr. Lu Xun's essays, that is your right." But as a reader, I can only come to the conclusion that you, the Tian author, don't have much talent, and this kind of article can be written when you have free time, and it is not a loss if you don't have time to write, and generally speaking, it will not affect the prosperity of the Chinese literary circle. For the record, this is entirely a reader's opinion, not the opinion of a municipal party secretary. When discussing this kind of academic issue, we are completely equal. ”

Tian Liye didn't feel any equal atmosphere in the office of the secretary of the municipal party committee at all!

After Gao Changhe finished becoming a reader, he immediately became the secretary of the municipal party committee again: "Oh, I also make a statement to you today, Secretary General Tian, as long as you are still willing to write down, when you publish a book, we can also buy a thousand copies at the reception office of the municipal party committee. ”

Tian Liye smiled reluctantly: "Secretary Gao, I think I'll go directly to study sleeping pills!" ”

Gao Changhe joked: "It's different, it's different, sleeping pills have side effects on the body, and reading your book hypnosis has no side effects." ”

Tian Liye couldn't help it: "Secretary Gao, what do you want to tell me?" ”

Gao Changhe got to the point: "Talk about your work." Supposedly, I don't need to talk to you, just talk to you with Secretary General Wang of the Municipal Party Committee. But your situation is quite special, and I can be regarded as the first friend I made when I came to Pingyang, so I want to talk to you directly. You seem to be in your early forties, right? ”

Tian Liye said gloomily: "Forty-two years old. ”

Gao Changhe nodded: "I am five years younger." This age is generally more experienced, and it is also the time to be able to do something. From the point of view of writing, I don't think you will have a great development, at least you will not be able to become a great writer like Lu Xun, Gorky, and Marquez. So, why not do some solid work? Every deputy secretary general of our municipal party committee follows a deputy secretary to do coordination work, and you haven't followed anyone in the past six years, and you haven't been in charge of any specific department, haven't you? ”

Tian Liye's face was gloomy: "Yes, I have been working for six years, I have done my best to divide apples, and I am in charge of health evaluation or something, and I don't care about the head of the municipal party committee." However, I would like to state that this is not that I don't want to do it, but that the old secretary Comrade Jiang Chaolin won't let me do it. I went down again and again, but Comrade Jiang Chaolin didn't approve it, and I didn't have any fun if I wanted to be a township mayor, so I had to be a bell-striking monk in the organ. ”

Gao Changhe glanced at Tian Liye attentively: "Why?" ”

Tian Liye laughed at himself: "The old secretary is afraid that I will accidentally spit out an ivory!" ”

Gao Changhe laughed, laughed, and said: "Comrade Tian Liye, I'm not afraid that you will spit out ivory for me, you can really spit out ivory in your mouth, it can be regarded as a special protected animal, enough to be a national treasure." Let me tell you, I personally have an idea for you to move and go down to work! Don't soak in the trap anymore, soak again and soak it will be spoiled! Think about it when you go back, do you have a bit of a hard-working spirit? Can you do more practical things and talk less about misleading the country?! ”

Tian Liye asked tentatively: "Secretary Gao, do you mean that you want me to be transferred out of the municipal party committee?" ”

Gao Changhe nodded and said very clearly: "Yes, you can't be like this in the municipal party committee." ”

Tian Liye immediately realized that the new secretary in front of him had attacked him, and he didn't think about it, and immediately said: "Then, Secretary Gao, I will transfer it to the Municipal People's Congress, I wanted to say this a long time ago, and I even wrote a report on requesting transfer." To tell you the truth, after having dinner with you, I was going to the Municipal People's Congress. ”

Gao Changhe smiled coldly: "Comrade Tian Liye, are you just like that?" Without Secretary Jiang Chaolin, you won't be able to work? Do you want to be the minister of the National People's Congress again? Don't have the ambition to be a man? Is it so physically attached? ”

This was too mean and to the point, Tian Liye felt that he was suddenly forced into a corner and froze.

Gao Changhe stared at him again: "What? Do you still have to follow Secretary Jiang? ”

Tian Liye thought about it for a long time, and finally made up his mind, "Okay, Secretary Gao, I will obey the organizational arrangement!" ”

Gao Changhe's face looked a little better, and his tone was soothed: "That's it, you Tian Liye is a party member and cadre, so you have to obey the organizational arrangement!" You yourself just said that you have wanted to go down for a long time, and now that I have satisfied your good wishes, I really let you go down, and you are clamoring to go to the National People's Congress again, do you have the intention to get along with me? ”

Tian Liye thought indignantly, Secretary Gao, it's not that I can't get along with you, it's that you can't get along with me!

Gao Changhe didn't look like he couldn't get along with Tian Liye, left the desk, took the water, walked to the sofa opposite Tian Liye and sat down, and said, "I heard that you did a good job in Lieshan six years ago, but it's not like this at all!" If I were Secretary Jiang, I wouldn't have transferred you back. ”

Tian Liye couldn't help but respond: "Then it would be good if you came to Pingyang early!" ”

Gao Changhe smiled meaninglessly: "Tell me, why did you make a fuss about the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee back then?" ”

Tian Liye said angrily: "Why am I making a fuss with the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee? I insist on principles and disagree with Geng Zijing's single-handed cover of the sky and misbehaving! The reason is to check the small treasury, he Geng Zijing County's ** small treasury has 170,000, no one dares to mention it, I still don't believe in this evil, just put the problem on the table! Shouldn't it? ”

Gao Changhe asked with a smile: "What is the result?" ”

Tian Liye said angrily: "The 170,000 yuan was recovered, but the old secretary transferred me to the municipal party committee as the deputy secretary-general. ”

Gao Changhe nodded meaningfully and said, "In this matter, the old secretary's rewards and punishments are unknown!" ”

Tian Liye immediately became vigilant, Gao Changhe was dissociating the relationship between himself and the old secretary! So he said: "This does not involve the issue of rewards and punishments, the deputy secretary of the county party committee is at the level of deputy director, and the deputy secretary general of the municipal party committee is also at the level of deputy director, and many comrades would rather be transferred to be deputy secretary general!" ”

Gao Changhe looked at Tian Liye and asked, "What if it wasn't you who was transferred away at that time, but Geng Zijing?" ”

Tian Liye still maintains due vigilance: "Secretary Gao, there is no 'if' in anything. ”

Gao Changhe asked more and more explicitly: "After so many years, you really don't have any opinion on Secretary Jiang?" ”

Tian Liye said bluntly: "Secretary Jiang has always been very good to me, and he didn't retaliate against me, what can I say?" ”

Gao Changhe snorted: "That's it, Secretary Jiang has been helping you sell 'daggers and throwing guns'!" ”

Tian Liye sneered: "Secretary Gao, don't you also want to help me sell 'daggers and guns'?" Didn't you just say that if I write a book again, you will continue to buy it at the reception?! ”

Gao Changhe threw the teacup in his hand on the coffee table, "Tian Liye, do you really want to engage in sleeping pills again?" Yes? I warn you, don't do that again! To go down to work is to go down to work, and to be ready to peel off the skin! After that, he waved his hand, "Okay, okay, you go back first, I still have something to do, and I'm going to go to the flat rolling mill with Mayor Wen soon!" ”

Tian Liye was not afraid, got up and turned around and left. When he went out, he thought: Gao Changhe has failed, and the little shoes that will be put on his feet will be very small and small. However, I don't regret it in my heart, or even a little tragic, it's worth it for an old leader like the old secretary!
