Accompanying Zhong Mingren back to Xiajiang, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon. At the outer ring road, Li Dongfang got out of Zhong Mingren's car, got into his own car, and ordered the driver to go to the international industrial park after getting into the car. When we arrived at the international industrial park, the handling of the pollution incident had ended, and the comrades of the provincial environmental protection bureau were all gone. It's another one that can't be done. Fang Zhongping, director of the management committee, still has some conscience, and quietly reported that the real situation is: It is true that some enterprises secretly discharge pollutants for the sake of local interests, regardless of the overall situation, but they can't catch the evidence, and Mayor Qian can't find the owner if he wants to impose a heavy fine.

Fang Zhongping was very distressed, and complained to Li Dongfang: "Mayor Qian is unreasonable, he said on the phone just now: If you can't find the master, you will punish all the enterprises in the park!" Secretary Li, what should I do with this job?! ”

Li Dongfang waved his hand: "Don't tell me this, the pollution is happening in your hands, you go and deal with it!" ”

Fang Zhongping cried and mourned, and said, "Secretary Li, no, I'm ...... I'll just quit......"

Li Dongfang said: "Don't resign first, wait for the municipal party committee to withdraw!" Immediately changed the subject, "What about the situation downstream?" Has the water quality in the Qinghu section returned to normal? ”

Fang Zhongping reported: "It wasn't until an hour ago that the water quality of the Qinghu section basically returned to normal, and then the downstream area of Linxian County was called again, but fortunately, Linxian County is relatively rich in groundwater resources, and the draft is no problem for the time being." ”

Li Dongfang secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, didn't say anything more, got in the car and left.

When I met Qian Fanxing at the Asia Hotel, I learned that Qian Fanxing had been holding an office meeting, and he didn't go to see Lu Chengwei, but it was He Jiaguo, the mayor's assistant who had not yet been identified, who fooled Lu Chengwei away. Li Dongfang couldn't imagine how He Jiaguo could fool people? As far as Li Dongfang knows, He Jiaguo is not an officialdom who can fool people.

Qian Fanxing was happy, and his eyes narrowed into a slit: "Secretary Li, this is called ordinary invisible, occasionally showing grandeur!" Our stupid doctor pretending to be crazy and stupid can be regarded as a must, and as soon as he raised his foot, he kicked on Lu Chengwei's egg nest......"

Li Dongfang frowned: "What egg nest?" Fanxing, talk about spiritual civilization! ”

Qian Fanxing is still happy: "Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, this female secretary has no eggs!" He continued, "Let's stupid Dr. Lu Chengwei suggested that Lu Chengwei go to the provincial party committee and find Secretary Zhong to close the international industrial park, do you say Lu Chengwei dares?" Lu Chengwei's attitude changed, talking about the great historical position of the international industrial park in the reform and opening up, and when she talked about it, she almost didn't hug us stupid doctors! Secretary Li, you really have eyesight, this mayor's assistant is looking for a good job! ”

Li Dongfang thought about it: "Oh, by the way, Fan Xing, Secretary Zhong told me in the car today, the provincial text may have arrived today, you go back and check." ”

Qian Fanxing said: "Okay, okay, even if the text hasn't arrived, let this comrade come to report, help us catch the work first, this headache is a bunch of things!" Let's get down to business, Secretary Li, should I start reporting now? Bring out the big dish that you are going to take to the Standing Committee to fry this time, and let the senior squad leader taste it first? ”

Li Dongfang knew that not long after the city people's representative was made public, the code word on Qian Fanxing's head had just been removed, and his mind was full of the grand blueprint for doing a lot of work, and this talk would not be over in an hour or two, so he said: "Fanxing, you wait a while, let me take a hot bath first, okay?" I ran for most of the day in Xiushan, and I encountered a dust storm again, and my sweat pores were full of ash. ”

Qian Fanxing said: "Okay, good, senior class leader, you take your bath, I'll talk about mine, let's hurry up!" ”

A municipal party secretary talks about work with his mayor with his bare ass? I really don't know what Qian Fanxing thinks!

That attitude and tone are not right, how is it like a mayor talking to a municipal party secretary?! Li Dongfang couldn't imagine that if he didn't put himself in the right position back then, he would be the mayor like this, how Zhao Qigong would deal with him. So, suppressing his unhappiness, he said with a smile: "Comrade Fanxing, can you let me keep some privacy?" ”

Qian Fanxing also smiled, laughing almost innocently: "Senior squad leader, we two big men, what privacy do we have?!" It's best to talk like this, haven't you heard anyone say it? The truth is all naked! After that, it didn't matter whether Li Dongfang was happy or not, he pulled out a posture of talking, "10,000 years is too long, just seize the day, squad leader, I'll talk about it - a group of Russian and Ukrainian guests came yesterday, and I still have foreign affairs activities tonight!" ”

Li Dongfang's heart became more and more unhappy, Qian Fanxing, the mayor, seemed to be busier than him, the secretary of the municipal party committee! But it's not good to be too serious, after all, you have to work together in a team for a long time, and when people are enthusiastic about reporting work, they can only be forgiving and forgiving. I thought of it again, Qian Fanxing is a comrade transferred from the province, the team is in the run-in period, and the two sides always have to adapt to each other, Qian Fanxing has a problem of adapting to him, and he also has a problem of adapting to Qian Fanxing.

Li Dongfang didn't say anything more, took off his clothes, and went to the bathroom to take a shower with his body full of "truth".

Qian Fanxing dragged a chair and sat outside the bathroom with the door closed, holding the meeting minutes and a bunch of materials and talking. The first thing is the Times Avenue project, from the old plan formulated by Zhong Mingren to the new plan he presided over, four old streets will be demolished in the first phase, and the investment budget is 2.2 billion.

Li Dongfang was tired and sleepy, soaking in the bathtub, drowsy in the diffuse mist, but when he heard the figure of 2.2 billion, he was immediately awakened by fright, and hurriedly asked: "Fan Xing, what did you just say about the budget for the first phase of Times Avenue?" ”

Qian Fanxing put his head into the foggy bathroom: "Secretary Li, it's 2.2 billion, what's wrong?" ”

Li Dongfang forced himself to wake up, adjusted the temperature of the water, poured cold water on his head with the sprinkler, and said tactfully: "Fanxing, do you know our current economic situation?" Where did these 2.2 billion come from? Two-thirds of the municipal enterprises are in arrears, and the unemployed and laid-off people are approaching 200,000, and the resettlement project in Xiushan is about to start again, we are the main resettlement city in the province, Secretary Zhong said today, it is not the 50,000 people set earlier, and it may be 80,000 people when it starts this year, which is enough for us to drink a pot! ”

Qian Fanxing leaned on the door of the bathroom and said, "Senior class leader, don't be pessimistic, listen to me!" Of course, there are many difficulties in such a big project, if there is no difficulty, Secretary Zhong will be on it that year! We have a lot of difficulties and many favorable conditions now, and I have analyzed them. With the support of the central authorities and preferential policies for the development of the western region, we can make full use of the policies and make good use of the policies, so that we will not have to worry about not being able to make money. Some things seem to be burdens, but in fact they are also money, such as immigration, the central and provincial governments have special funds, I asked Mayor Zeng, the central government's 200 million has arrived, we can be flexible, use it first! Tear down the east wall and make up the west wall, as long as it doesn't fall! ”

Li Dongfang was about to scream: This kind of dry method, do you want the black gauze hat? But he suppressed and didn't scream, and asked calmly: "Mayor Qian, if you want the wall not to fall, I think it's a good wish, but if which wall falls?" ”

Qian Fanxing said: "Even if it falls, it won't hit you and me." As long as we do not embezzle money into our pockets, second, we do not build buildings and halls, third, we do not use it to engage in financial speculation, and fourth, we do not learn from Tian Zhuangda to roll hundreds of millions of dollars abroad, but use the money on infrastructure construction, the general direction will not be wrong, and at most we will be punished. When the time comes, I really want to be punished, let the province and the central government punish me, I'm not afraid! ”

Li Dongfang couldn't stay in the bathtub anymore, so he hurriedly got up and wiped the water on his body: "Fanxing, don't say it, you just said that the sky is broken, and the special funds are earmarked, and this immigration fund must not be diverted for other purposes." ”

Qian Fanxing didn't care: "Big class leader, we can do both revolution and production!" It's not that I don't want to do immigration work, and I'm about to report on immigration work! Starting in the second half of this year, I will raise the surcharge for poverty relief by about 20 percent, and the scope of the levy will also be expanded, and all enterprises and institutions in Xiajiang will be levied on all enterprises and institutions, and no reduction or exemption will be made ......

Li Dongfang couldn't listen to it anymore, waved his hand, and interrupted Qian Fanxing's words: "Comrade Fanxing, let's not create new poverty!" Regarding the additional matter of poverty alleviation, Mayor Zeng mentioned it, I said, we must be cautious, we can't do our best to catch fish, our investment environment is not good, and then ask for money and don't die, who would dare to invest! ”

Qian Fanxing froze and was silent for a while before he said with obvious displeasure: "Secretary Li, you asked me to study these things, without the order from the bow of your senior squad leader, would my guy who pulls fiber dare to make his own claims?" This is just the assumption of me and ** here, if you think it's not appropriate to give up, including Times Avenue! ”

Li Dongfang thought about it, now is the meeting to study the work, not to announce it to the public, his tone and attitude seem to be a little stiffer, so he softened his tone and said with a smile: "Comrade Fanxing, I am also exchanging opinions with you!" We are comrades of a team, and we have to be honest and share the humiliation. To tell you the truth, our big boss's mind is now on immigration, and he has an opinion on us to spread the stall of Times Avenue so big! ”

This was something Qian Fanxing didn't expect, Qian Fanxing was stunned for a moment, and looked at Li Dongfang silently.

Li Dongfang had already dressed at this time, lit a cigarette and smoked it, and also threw one to Qian Fanxing: "Fanxing, it's not me talking about you, the planning demonstration of Times Avenue is not over yet, what are you talking about?" Our municipal party committee is in the west of the city, and the provincial party committee is in the east of the city, can it reach the ears of the big boss? You yourself are causing trouble, and it will make me look at the face of the big boss! ”

Qian Fanxing became depressed: "Comrade squad leader, then you also make it clear: What does the big boss mean?" Just engage in immigration, can't the road of the times be on? I told the big boss of Times Avenue that he was originally supportive! ”

Li Dongfang said: "The big boss also supports it now, but we have to do what we can, and the tone has changed from the past!" ”

Qian Fanxing looked at Li Dongfang dissatisfied, and sneered: "Secretary Li, I can be regarded as convincing you!" As soon as the tone of the big boss changes, your tone will change immediately, you will really keep in line with the leaders of the provincial party committee, I think you can still make progress! ”

Li Dongfang became angry all of a sudden: "Comrade Fanxing, why do you talk like this?!" Where have I changed? When did I ask you to make the plate of Times Avenue so big? Didn't you just report to me today? Take a step back and say, even if I have supported you, what's wrong with accepting Secretary Zhong's correct criticism and kind reminders now?! ”

It has been half a year since Qian Fanxing was transferred from the deputy director of the Provincial Economic Commission to Xiajiang as mayor, and it was the first time he saw Li Dongfang angry in front of him, he was a little scared, and after a little hesitation, he said with a smile: "Secretary Li, don't be angry, don't be angry, I'm just joking!" Come, come, Secretary Li, you stand up, I bow and apologize to you! After that, he really pulled Li Dongfang and gave Li Dongfang a thunderous bow exaggeratedly.

Li Dongfang pressed Qian Fanxing down on the sofa: "Okay, Fanxing, don't look foreign, let's talk!" ”

Qian Fanxing held the notebook and talked again, but the interest was not so high. Because unpleasantness has already occurred, both sides have lost a rare amount of caution. Qian Fanxing always maintained a tone of asking for instructions, while Li Dongfang talked about his opinions in a completely consultative tone. The planning of Times Avenue should be contracted, and Li Dongfang suggested that the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, which was originally scheduled to be held the next day, be postponed, and Qian Fanxing agreed. In the meantime, the two also made a few painless jokes.

At half past six o'clock, all the major matters to be discussed were finished, and when they broke up, Qian Fanxing thought about it again: "Oh, by the way, Secretary Li, Secretary Lu of Qinghu is not worried about us, afraid of being polluted again in the future, and when he left, he made a request to us to send a water resources monitoring team to our international industrial park, what do you think?" Can you agree? ”

Li Dongfang thought about it, didn't hurry to make a statement, and looked at Qian Fanxing with an inquiring gaze: "What do you see?" ”

Qian Fanxing kicked the ball to Li Dongfang again: "You are the head of the class, you are determined!" ”

Li Dongfang said with a smile: "If you want me to decide, I will agree with them to send someone over, which is equivalent to helping us stand on the road post more!" ”

Qian Fanxing also smiled and said: "It's a good thing to have one more post, but isn't this a bit of a loss of power and humiliation to the country?" As soon as this opening is opened, what should I do if the cities and counties downstream send people over? Oh, Secretary Li, I'm just talking casually, since you agree, I'll let Secretary Lu send someone to come, and be a good person in front of Secretary Lu. "Let's go.

Li Dongfang thought for a while and pulled Qian Fanxing back: "Don't, don't, Fanxing, you reminded you right, the downstream counties and cities really sent people over, and we won't be able to occupy the situation of the Eight-Nation Alliance?" Isn't it a big joke?! I think, don't do this good person, don't do it, take the time to talk to Secretary Lu, and tell her and the comrades in Qinghu: Our current team is responsible, as long as we are in power for a day, this kind of pollution incident will never happen again! ”

After Qian Fanxing left, Li Dongfang made a few phone calls, arranged some work matters, and was ready to go home.

Without thinking about it, he was about to go out with his briefcase here, but Chen Zhongcheng, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and director of the Public Security Bureau who was in charge of political and legal work, hurriedly came over, blocked his way and said, "Hey, Secretary Li, I have found you!" Don't be busy leaving, I have an important case to report to you and the municipal party committee! ”

Li Dongfang frowned, so he had to ask the waiter to reopen the door and let Chen Zhongcheng into the room.
