Chapter 159: Door-to-door Gifts (2)
Bow and thank you "zjun971210" for your great support!
ββββββββββββββββ
Lu Zhengdong closed the door and returned to the sofa, and when Xue Yu saw Zhong Linxue leaving, he also walked out and asked:
"This is your classmate, how do I feel like you are a subordinate?"
Lu Zhengdong:
"The classmates of the youth cadre class were the deputy county magistrates back then, and they are still the deputy county magistrates. 1βββ
"No wonder, I said how to report work, this is because you, the mayor, have been promoted."
Xue Yu said, curiously lifting the black fungus and looking at it.
"Before you take office, someone will come to pay respects, tsk......"
Lu Zhengdong ignored Xue Yu's deliberate yin and yang weirdness, glanced at the black fungus and said:
"Open it up and see ......"
When he was in Yilan, many people were carrying valuables or cash in the so-called souvenirs, since Zhong Linxue came to the door at this time, I am afraid
It's not just about ordering souvenirs.
Xue Yu opened the package, and there was really a cat inside, the top layer was black fungus, and the bottom layer was a bundle of banknotes. There are three ties in total, which should be 30,000.
Xue Yu raised her head and said:
"How did you know there was going to be money in there?"
Lu Zhengdong smiled and said:
"I guessed ......"
Lu Zhengdong smiled, over the years, he knows too much about the world, if the news of his appointment as the mayor of Mianxi spreads, no one comes to visit, this situation is not normal. Someone comes to visit and comes empty-handed, which is also abnormal. But the classmate who hasn't moved around for a long time will send a box of fungus to his door because he is going to be the mayor, which is not normal, at least he has to bring two good cigarettes and wine, so he estimates that there is something else in the box.
How to visit and how to give gifts is a science, and in it, you can't avoid it no matter what, unless his career is hopeless.
"Then you're going to take the money?"
Xue Yu stared at Lu Zhengdong and asked.
"We don't charge anything valuable. That's my principle. β
"It's pretty much the same, I thought this man was an honest man, but it's not such a person......"
Lu Zhengdong shook his head:
"This is not necessarily, I am afraid that it is the first time to give such a big gift to him like that, if he is really a gift-giver, he will not stay in place for so many years......"
And if you really take this road for a long time, you must first understand your preferences and meaning. Throwing stones to ask for directions, you will not place such a heavy bet at once.
Lu Zhengdong said and pulled Xue Yuye aside to sit down, and said:
"This is the first one from Mianxi, and I am afraid that there will be more people in the future, and all kinds of temptations will follow, which is the most direct. It is also the most clumsy, and the clever gift is to do what it likes, scratching it to the itchy place of the person, so that you will fall into it unconsciously, so there is the saying that sugar-coated cannonballs. These people are everywhere, I can't get through here, maybe one day you'll be there......"
The Xue Yu family's tutor is stricter, but it is still relatively simple, and they know a little about the things in it, but it is also limited. Lu Zhengdong also took this opportunity to tell her about it.
Lu Zhengdong picked up a bundle of money, turned it upside down and continued:
"Strictly speaking, not only did the mayor have nothing to do, but he also went directly to prison."
Xue Yu nodded, looked at a few bundles of money as if she saw a bunch of landmines, and asked:
"What to do with the money? Will it be handed over to the Commission for Discipline Inspection? β
Lu Zhengdong shook his head. How to deal with this money is an art, and handing it over to the Commission for Discipline Inspection is the worst way, this is to do something that is in the limelight, it is easy to make people think about it, Lu Zhengdong said in front of Liu Zhenqiang that he is not a political star, but a doer, in fact, it is also a truth, officialdom is a conservative place, the more unconventional it is, the easier it is to become a target, the more political a star, looking at the infinite scenery, but in fact, the easier it is to become a meteor, the outer circle and the inner square, try to be low-key, and less showy on some unnecessary things. Such a talent can go further in officialdom, and it is also a common choice for mature career people. β¦,
"And what do you do?"
"Or go back. It's just that you have to be a little more skillful, after all, it's a classmate, don't hurt your feelings too much......"
Xue Yu glanced at him and said:
"Such classmates are also called classmates, which is completely harmful to you......"
Lu Zhengdong smiled, he still has to participate in the election in Mianxi, if he doesn't handle it well, he will return a sum of money, maybe he will offend a cadre, this is the reality, the principle must be spoken, and it must be handled flexibly.
Although the election is not what Lu Zhengdong is most worried about, the person who worries the most should be Wu Jinquan, secretary of the Mianxi City CPC Committee, and if he fails to be elected, Wu Jinquan will bear the main responsibility. But it's also a blow to him, and it will definitely have a negative impact on development, so he himself has to pay more attention.
Snow Jade Road:
"Then why don't you just put a sign at the door...... Gift givers will not be accepted. β
Lu Zhengdong said with a smile:
"This is definitely not good, if the people know, they will think, you are the mayor before you take office, there are so many people to give gifts, those who have been leaders all their lives do not know how many gifts they have received, so ah, cold treatment is the best. Don't worry, I think I can stand the test in this regard, and I believe that our Comrade Xue Yu will definitely be able to stand the test as well, and he will definitely be a good helper......
Xue Yu muttered:
"I'm not you, what's my business."
Lu Zhengdong said with a smile:
"I'm surprised by this, you are my girlfriend now, and you will be my daughter-in-law soon, otherwise, we won't waste a lot of time, and we will do things first today?"
"You...... You want to be beautiful......"
Xue Yu glared at him hatefully......
Lu Zhengdong sent Xue Yu away, and after going to work, after Lu Zhengdong finished dealing with the things in his hand, he was about to call Zhong Linxue, but the mobile phone rang first, it was the evening party organized by the youth cadre class.
Lu Zhengdong also participated in several such gatherings, which were initially organized by Xin Wushan, but after Xin Wushan became the secretary and office director of the organization minister. There was no time to organize this, but it was organized by other students from the provincial organs.
Such a gathering can't be shirked, especially if you are about to go to Mianxi to take up your post, if you don't go, in the eyes of others, it will be too proud, too unsociable, not to mention that many of them are provincial organs, and they still need everyone's support in their work in the future.
During this time, I am afraid that the main thing is to hand over the work of the enterprise on the one hand, and on the other hand, I am afraid that I am afraid that I will continue to participate in dinners and drinks with all kinds of people and share friendship.
Lu Zhengdong finished answering the phone. still called Zhong Linxue, and although Lu Zhengdong's tone was very gentle on the phone, his attitude was very resolute:
"County Magistrate Zhong, come to my office, I want to know about the restructuring of state-owned enterprises in your district......
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
When Zhong Linxue received the call, he knew what was going on, and he felt very uncomfortable, he was originally a reserve cadre in the city. It should be given priority to promotion, but several other deputy district chiefs have been promoted, and he is still standing still, and he is also well aware of his weaknesses, that is, he is not good at walking in front of the leader, and he is not good at building relationships with the leader. The deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, who was in charge of personnel in the past, admired his character, but unfortunately he retired a long time ago. So it has been motionless all these years.
Seeing the other students in the Qinggan class making great strides forward one by one, he didn't feel good in his heart, thinking that Lu Zhengdong was a classmate, and this was a great opportunity. It's finally out of the way.
He has been a cadre for many years, and he has given gifts to leaders a lot of times, and he used to give gifts to leaders during the New Year's holidays, and the gifts were ordinary cigarettes and alcohol, which is a normal human relationship.
In his subconscious, he always thinks that he doesn't want to be an official. In fact, it is also a blasphemy against the leader, and this time he is sending money to his former classmates, who are still more than ten years younger than him, which makes him feel particularly uncomfortable, and even the last bit of self-esteem has been lost. β¦,
After going back, I couldn't help but slap myself a few big ears, locked myself in the hotel room, and scolded myself to the blood, fortunately Lu Zhengdong was very modest, otherwise he would definitely be even more uncomfortable.
But. Lu Zhengdong collected his own money in the end, and here, he also despised Lu Zhengdong fiercely in his heart, and then thought in his heart that since Lu Zhengdong received the money, it seems that he may have made a move in the near future.
Zhong Linxue has always slept well, but this night he tossed until almost dawn before he fell asleep in a daze......
After receiving a call from Lu Zhengdong, he quickly washed his swollen eyes with cold water in the county and hurried to the provincial government.
Zhong Linxue works in the district, and when he goes to the city, most of the time he goes to the province is when he has a general meeting, so there are few things to do in the provincial government.
In the district, he is still a figure, but when he enters here, the deputy department-level cadres grab a lot of them, and they are not worth mentioning at all. So at this time, when he entered the majestic provincial government, he was quite apprehensive.
found Lu Zhengdong's office, he knocked lightly on the door, and the staff of the Enterprise Reform Office opposite, hearing someone knocking on the door, hurriedly walked over and asked, "Who are you looking for?" β
Zhong Linxue introduced himself and said:
"I am Zhong Linxue, deputy head of the cornice district of Mianxi City, and Director Lu just called me and asked me to report to his office."
The staff nodded, and he was instructed, saying:
"Please wait. I'll see if Director Lu has anything to do......"
Zhong Lin learned to enter the office, and Lu Zhengdong said:
"You are in charge of industry, you should be familiar with the restructuring of state-owned enterprises, you can introduce the situation......
Lu Zhengdong pondered for a moment and said:
"Today is a separate communication, I am in the capacity of the enterprise reform office to understand the situation, what does District Mayor Zhong have, not only to talk about experience, but also to talk about the problem of storage."
Zhong Linxue has always been in charge of industry, and he must also participate in the restructuring of enterprises, and he has a good understanding of this aspect of the situation, and made a detailed report to Lu Zhengdong.
Lu Zhengdong didn't expect Zhong Linxue to really have some goods in his stomach, and many of the numbers were blurted out, which was very consistent with the number jΓΉ he had just collected, and some of his thoughts coincided with his own, he was just pretending to listen, but he actually wanted to return the money, and was ready to end the conversation in twenty minutes, but it ended up talking for an hour.
"District Chief Zhong is very professional, and he has gained a lot today......
Zhong Linxue also felt that Lu Zhengdong was by no means in vain, and Lu Zhengdong did not have any tendentious views on his report, but the questions raised by Lu Zhengdong could always ask the most critical points very accurately. Also said:
"Director Lu is an expert in economics, which is great news for Mianxi."
Lu Zhengdong stood up with a smile, carried a bag in his hand, and said:
"I have some northern specialties sent by my girlfriend here, and I will share them with you, that is, some food, don't refuse."
Zhong Linxue suddenly understood Lu Zhengdong's intention to let him come to the provincial government, and he couldn't help but have a fever on his face, and said in anticipation:
"Director Lu, this ...... It's you...... This makes it impossible to ......"
"What can't be done. We are classmates,. β
When Lu Zhengdong said this, his face became stern, and he said:
"Our classmates eat and eat, send each other some small things, and move around more, which is also human nature, and the so-called gentleman's friendship is as light as water. Such friendships can last a long time. β
Lu Zhengdong also knew that Zhong Lin Xuexue could enter the youth cadre class, and he must have been promoted at a very young age, but being promoted early does not mean that the official is big, if he stays in a position for too long, the advantage of being promoted early will soon disappear. The reason why an official is big is that he must be short, flat and fast, and he must be moved, and he will have a chance to be promoted after working in every post for two or three years. For example, even if he is promoted to the post of deputy county magistrate in 278, and then to the Standing Committee or executive deputy county magistrate, deputy secretary, county magistrate, and secretary of the county party committee, so that every position is completed step by step and the time is full. Before retirement, he was a department-level cadre. β¦,
Seeing that Zhong Linxue was still about to speak, Lu Zhengdong waved his hand and said:
"Just now, the classmates of the youth cadre class called me and said that the classmates will get together tonight, and you must go to ......"
In the county, he went downstairs with the things sent by Lu Zhengdong, and the failure to send money for the first time made him feel very complicated.
If Lu Zhengdong generously accepted the money, he also felt that it was too gloomy in his heart. But the money was not sent, and I felt that the future was very bleak.
Zhong Linxue sat in the car and thought blankly, until the driver asked him for the second time whether he would check out and go back to the city or what to do, he came back to his senses and remembered the matter of the evening party.
"Stay one more night. I'll be back tomorrow......"
In the evening, the classmates had a dinner, including Yang Yibai, Lu Zhengdong, Zhang Miao of the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee, Zhou Yulin of the General Office of the Provincial Government, Zhong Linxue, Deputy Mayor of the Cornice District, Jiang Linxin, Vice President of the Provincial Industrial and Commercial Bank, etc., everyone knew that Lu Zhengdong was about to become the mayor of Mianxi City, and it was naturally the center of the dinner.
"Zhengdong, congratulations, but you have gone very smoothly this way, you must be sober-minded, my words are very unpleasant, it seems to be a disappointment at this time, but I can't help but ......"
"Good medicine is good for disease, and good advice is good for action, at this time, only friends will say such things......"
Among these classmates, only Yang Yibai and Xin Wushan basically call him by his name and do not call him his position, Xin Wushan has the strength to intersect equally, while Yang Yibai is a little desireless and strong, and he didn't think about asking him for anything, so he really regarded him as a friend, and Lu Zhengdong didn't say anything politely in front of Yang Yibai that the organizational appointment had not yet come down.
In this way, that is, the people closest to the family and the people with the best relationship will talk about it, and most of the people who have a good relationship are congratulations, and then they are generally flattering, which Lu Zhengdong seems to have a mirror in his heart. Lu Zhengdong is also very sober, the mayor of the city in his twenties, I don't know how many people envy, envy and hate, he knows very well that he must be low-key in the position of mayor, and he can't be proud.
However, Lu Zhengdong looked at Yang Yibai's appearance of not being angry and arrogant, Yang Yibai's many years of career in the Commission for Discipline Inspection has become more and more of a white bread man, his character is too serious, and it has not gone too smoothly in the past few years, Lu Zhengdong was moved in his heart, and couldn't help laughing:
"Yibai, hehe, I really want to get you to Mianxi, with you by my side, I am also sure-footed, but I am worried that if I really abduct you to Mianxi, my sister-in-law and my little niece will definitely not let me go when the time comes......"
A hero with three gangs, a fence with three piles, the local forces in Mianxi are deep-rooted, and the cadres are generally conservative, selfish and lazy, let Yang Yibai serve as the deputy secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection and the director of the Supervision Bureau, that is, it is difficult to be the director of the Supervision Bureau, and the deputy secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection should not be a big problem, Yang Yibai is a foreign cadre, and he has principles in doing things, so it must still have a deterrent effect on local cadres, which will definitely be of great help to him in carrying out his work in Mianxi, and this matter is also operable, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection has Sheng Dongming here, And he also understood what Liu Zhenqiang meant, that is, to curb the local forces in Mianxi, it should not be a big problem for him to mobilize one or two people.
Of course, it depends on what Yang Yibai means, after all, the two of them turned out to be gentlemen's friends, so it becomes a relationship between superiors and subordinates, and according to Yang Yibai's character, he may not agree, so he is also half joking and half serious.
Yang Yibai seemed to be a little surprised, and was silent for a long time before saying:
"I haven't moved in Gaotang since I joined the work, and I don't know if I can adapt to it in Mianxi......
As soon as Lu Zhengdong heard Yang Yibai's words, he seemed to have a will:
"What is there to adapt to, the rules and regulations are the same there, these are all in your head, you can adapt there, a white, you always stay in Gaotang life is stable, really want to do things, or go down, you have to adhere to the principle, if you want to do more, you need to have a platform, the nest is in one place, this is not a good thing, without that platform, you just have more ideas and only sigh, the cadres in Mianxi have some small problems, the province is also willing to carry out cadre exchanges, you are transferred, This is also a normal transfer, and it does not violate your principles of being a human being......"
Yang Yibai's heart was ignited, although he worked steadily in Gaotang, he was only the person in charge of the department, and he was only responsible for the specific implementation, and he still had a little say in specific affairs, and he had no right to decide on many things.
Seeing that Lu Zhengdong took the initiative to mention this matter, he said:
"I'm discussing with your sister-in-law, I don't want to stay in the provincial capital for a long time, go to the cities below, at least I can broaden my horizons......"
Lu Zhengdong smiled:
"This is the first thing to say here, anyway, there is no rush ......" (to be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
