Guan Haiyang was the director of the Water Conservancy Department in the era when Meng Hao was the secretary of the provincial party committee, and he has deep qualifications. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Info seniority also means that job rotation is something that can't be run, so he was very happy with Hou Weidong's request and promised to agree to invest the central sewage treatment funds in Maodong.

"I am relieved to invest funds in Maoyun, the reason is very simple, among the provincial and municipal teams, the Maodong team is the most knowledgeable about water conservancy. Mayor Hou used to be a water conservancy cadre, and Zhu Xiaoyong was a water conservancy expert. A basic agreement was reached, and Guan Haiyang sat in the reception room chatting with the two mayors of Maodong.

Hou Weidong said: "Xiao Yong happens to be in Lingxi, and we will invite the director of the department to have a meal later." ”

Guan Haiyang said: "It's okay to eat, don't drink." ”

Hou Weidong said with a smile: "Over the years, eating has been a psychological burden, so we eat in a civilized manner and do not discourage alcohol." The location was set at the Bayi Reservoir, and we went to hook a few rods inside, and at the same time, we also had to ask the director of the management department in detail how to improve the river. ”

Bayi Reservoir is the source of drinking water in Lingxi City, and fish are not allowed to be raised in captivity, so the quality of fish in the reservoir is quite good.

Guan Haiyang has been engaged in water conservancy work all his life, and when he sees that he is going to enter the people's congress or the CPPCC, he is not as active in his work as before, and said: "Then go, the Bayi Reservoir is also under the jurisdiction of the Water Conservancy Department, and I can be regarded as going deep into the grassroots." You don't want to drive the car, a few cars line up in a row to attract attention, and sit in the hall Coaster. You don't have to arrange it, let the office arrange it directly. ”

Hou Weidong said with a smile: "There is no need to arrange it in the hall, Xiao Yong is already waiting in the Bayi Reservoir." ”

Guan Haiyang also laughed and said, "You guys have premeditated it. ”

Hou Weidong said: "This shows that we are sincere." ”

Sitting on the Coaster, the people in the car talk casually.

Hou Weidong asked, "Director Guan, what is the next arrangement?" ”

Guan Haiyang was very straightforward and said: "At my age, the only place to go is the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference." If a few years earlier, it was possible to be a deputy director, and now it would be good to be able to take up an idle position in the special committee. ”

In the early years, it meant that if Meng Haofang was still in the province, Guan Haiyang might become a deputy provincial cadre, but now he can only take up an idle post in the second-level team of the people's congress or the CPPCC, waiting for retirement.

Hou Weidong said insincerely: "With the qualifications and contributions of the director of the department, he should be appointed as a deputy position." ”

Guan Haiyang said: "I have also seen through these years, the brilliance of people is like flowers, they can only be brilliant for a while, not brilliant for a lifetime, so Chinese like epiphany, flowering time is short, and blooming is particularly beautiful." As a farmer's child, I am content to be a department-level cadre. After decades of being an official, it is also very satisfying to be able to make a smooth transition. ”

Hou Weidong is the director of the Shazhou Agricultural Machinery and Hydropower Bureau, and he is a subordinate in charge of the ocean, and the relationship between the two began in that era. Later, Hou Weidong's position gradually improved, and Guan Haiyang always stood still, and finally the two became equals. But it is still rare to talk about life insights as bluntly as Guan Haiyang.

From his work to the present, Hou Weidong's mentality is also changing as his status improves and he ages. At first, he struggled out of the grassroots level in Qinglin, and when he came to the leader, he wanted to have a good future, and since he became the secretary of the county party committee, he really had the concept of "politics". After becoming the mayor of Maodong, his mentality has changed, on the one hand, he naturally has the intention of "going to the next level", and on the other hand, he really wants to do something for the local government after taking charge.

Bayi Reservoir is a long and narrow reservoir with a wide front and a narrow back, and the management house is located in the middle. The management room and the sanatorium in the hall are connected, and the sanatorium looks very inconspicuous from the outside, and because the director of the hall sometimes comes in the summer, the facilities and equipment inside are not bad.

Before he arrived at the management room, he saw Zhu Xiaoyong waiting on the side of the road.

Zhu Xiaoyong, director of the Maodong Organization Department, is a water conservancy expert and is extremely familiar with the mountains and rivers of Lingxi. He stood on the side of the road and beckoned to Coaster.

Zhu Xiaoyong got into the car and said, "Director Guan, don't go to the sanatorium today, let's go to a new place." ”

Guan Haidao: "What new place?" ”

Zhu Xiaoyong said: "Go inside, there is a new villa, not mine, it is a real estate friend." Better location than a nursing home. ”

After passing the management house, there is also a one-way road that can be opened to the narrower part of the reservoir. At the bottom of the reservoir, the water body is quietly magnified, the lake and mountains are beautiful, and the scenery is beautiful. Behind a small hillside, a few houses are hidden in the forest, not at all noticeable.

Guan Haiyang frowned and said: "Bayi Reservoir is a source of drinking water, how can you build a house here." ”

Zhu Xiaoyong said: "This is the house repaired by Liu Gongzi, he is playing a side ball, just outside the drinking water source protection area, but he can enjoy the end of the lake." ”

It was the first time for Hou Weidong to come to this place, and he only felt that the air was fresh, the scenery was pleasant, and it seemed that the hustle and bustle of the big city was far away.

Guan Haiyang said: "How to deal with domestic sewage? ”

Zhu Xiaoyong said: "Liu Gongzi is also a veteran of real estate, he has handled the details well, the pipe of the septic tank is connected to the side of the town, and then a small treatment system is concentrated, and the sewage can be directly discharged after treatment." ”

The words were unintentional, the listener had a heart, Hou Weidong heard the words: "A domestic sewage treatment system was built here? The result? Let's take a look. ”

Zhu Xiaoyong said: "The effect is not bad. ”

Hou Weidong said: "We want to build a tertiary pipe network in the urban area, but there are many blank spots in the suburbs, and a large amount of rural domestic sewage is directly discharged. ”

Guan Haiyang is the director of the department, in charge of major affairs, and is not interested in small rural domestic sewage treatment systems. After the group entered the villa, they were accompanied by Yu Liang, holding a fishing rod, and went to the end of the lake along the trail to throw two poles.

Hou Weidong and Zhu Xiaoyong went to inspect the small domestic sewage treatment system.

The small domestic sewage system is located not far from the villa area, with an area of about two or three hundred square meters. There is a small stream of sewage flowing into the inlet, and it becomes clean water at the outlet.

Hou Weidong said: "Is this water up to standard?" ”

Zhu Xiaoyong said: "There are many indicators for the discharge of sewage treatment plants, such as chemical oxygen demand, biochemical oxygen demand, suspended solids, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, and the number of manure fertilizer bacteria. This kind of small rural sewage treatment system, due to the small amount of sewage inflow, after treatment, can basically meet the standard. But to fully meet the standard, every indicator meets the requirements, which is a bit difficult. ”

The main source of pollution in rural life is human and animal feces, especially the wastewater cleaned up from the pigsty is particularly polluted, in addition to washing wastewater, kitchen wastewater, natural precipitation, etc.

The difficulty of treatment lies in the fact that the farmers are scattered, the amount of sewage is unstable, the drainage network is almost non-existent, the economic force is weak, and the lack of professional personnel, so the sewage in the rural areas is in a state of free discharge, and the water pollution is more serious in the densely populated villages. To develop Beicheng, solving river pollution is a key point, and in addition to urban pollution, there is also a very important rural non-point source pollution. For a long time, those engaged in urban construction have focused on urban areas and neglected rural non-point source pollution.

Hou Weidong is very realistic spirit, after deciding to develop Beicheng, he took his secretary Yan Chunping to the road many times to investigate. During the inspection, he did not take a car, but walked along the river without stopping. Today, he is well aware of the composition of the Beicheng River Pollution.

The two stood in front of the small sewage treatment system, Zhu Xiaoyong said: "At present, there are many plans for the small sewage treatment system in rural areas, but no matter what kind of plan, there must be biogas technology and anaerobic technology in front of it. ”

The small rural sewage treatment system in front of the villa area consists of three parts: the sewage first enters the sewage purification digester, then enters the constructed wetland system, and then enters the bacterial algae pond, and the water flowing out of the bacterial algae pond is basically clean water.

When Zhu Xiaoyong's explanation was over, Hou Weidong sighed: "Minister Zhu is an expert leading cadre, and it is a pity to engage in party affairs. ”

Zhu Xiaoyong said: "I used to think that the organization minister was a good errand and had a lot of power, but now I found out that he was the puppet of the secretary. Of course, there is also some power, which the secretary intentionally or unintentionally leaked, or the secretary is unwilling to take charge personally, but as long as it is the position that the secretary is eyeing, I, the head of the organization, basically have no right to speak. ”

Zhu Xiaoyong is an official who is a university teacher, and he is the son-in-law of the former provincial party secretary, so he has never spoken in front of Hou Weidong. In the environment where the two of them were alone, they spoke their hearts.

Hou Weidong is a person who has been the secretary of the county party committee, so he naturally understands the trick, and asks rhetorically: "If you were the secretary of the municipal party committee, what would you do?" Tell the truth, don't fake hits. ”

Zhu Xiaoyong did not hesitate at all, and said: "If I were the secretary of the municipal party committee, I would definitely be like this." If you are the secretary of the municipal party committee, it must be the same, no one will want to be in power, control is inevitable, not control is accidental. The ability of the secretary of the municipal party committee to control the overall situation must first be embodied in the control of personnel power, which cannot be controlled, and the authority of the secretary of the municipal party committee is swept away. ”

Hou Weidong nodded and said, "This is called empathy, long live understanding." ”

Zhu Xiaoyong said again: "I used to think that you would have a conflict with Secretary Duan. ”

"Why do you think that?"

"It used to be a common phenomenon for the secretary and the mayor to have conflicts."

"Cooperation is a both, and a fight is a lose."

Zhu Xiaoyong was silent for a while, and then said, "If the decision made by the secretary is obviously problematic, what should you do?" Is it to go along and watch the problems happen, or is it to oppose them, causing the team to be disunited? ”

Hou Weidong said: "This is a big problem. The way to deal with it is simple, moderation, or balance. ”

Zhu Xiaoyong said: "This is still the practice of Chinese cuisine, how much MSG, how much salt, how much chili pepper, how much pepper, all depend on the chef's skills." ”

The two stood by the constructed wetland system, as if they had returned to the old days, Zhu Xiaoyong was a university teacher, and Hou Weidong was also the director of the water conservancy bureau. As they walked back to the villa, the two chatted casually by the lake.

Zhu Xiaoyong said: "Governor Zhou is very seriously ill, and according to reliable information, I am afraid it will not take long." ”

Hou Weidong said: "When I followed the old leader, he was very energetic, and he worked every day, but he didn't expect to get this disease. Life is impermanent and ever-changing, and people's mentality will change greatly after reaching middle age. ”

Zhu Xiaoyong said with a smile: "Mayor Hou should be a light spring breeze, why is his mood a little dissipated, shouldn't it." ”

Hou Weidong said: "Should you be proud of being the mayor, not necessarily, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and you don't know what it's like if you are not in the bureau." ”

Zhu Xiaoyong raised his legs and stepped over a hurdle and said, "Yes, every family has a difficult scripture. Don't look at me from the university came to the local area to serve as the deputy department-level organization minister, but in my heart, after my father-in-law left, my life in Lingxi was very unsatisfactory, Lao Taishan used to govern Lingxi, his style of action was very hard, and he offended many people, including some leaders of the provincial party committee who were once Lao Taishan's opponents. I know very well in my heart that as Lao Taishan gradually retires from the political arena, my career will stop at the current level, at least in Lingxi, and it is very likely that my position will be adjusted. ”

Hou Weidong knew that what Zhu Xiaoyong said was the truth, and he was not comforted, and said: "It is up to people to plan things, and it is up to heaven to achieve things, and we don't have to care too much about which position we can achieve, the key is to be worthy of our own hearts." ”

Zhu Xiaoyong gave a thumbs up and said: "I used to think that Mayor Hou was a person who was very good at playing politics, but since I arrived in Maodong, I found out that you are actually a very real person, much better than I imagined." ”

Hou Weidong said: "Why do you think I can play politics? ”

Zhu Xiaoyong said: "This is not my own understanding, many people in the province have this opinion. Your experience is an outlier among the leading cadres in Lingxi Province, and you have served as the secretary of two leaders, but both leaders are very accomplished. The perception is that your development is actually related to the two leaders. ”

Hou Weidong nodded and said: "That's true, without Minister Zhu and Governor Zhou, I might still be a township cadre." In retrospect, I just had better opportunities than others. ”

Zhu Xiaoyong shook his head and said: "This statement is not true, the opportunity is very fair, fate will give everyone ten opportunities, and the opportunities are hidden in the shadows, but there will definitely be." It's just that some people can seize the opportunity, and some people can't. For example, for me personally, it is an opportunity to get into a university, it is an opportunity to stay in school, and it is another opportunity to meet Xiaomeng. When we talk about these opportunities now, we look back and succeed, only to realize that it was an opportunity. If I can't get into college, I won't stay in school, and if I don't stay in school, I won't know Xiaomeng. Most losers complain and think that they have never had a chance, but in fact everyone has an opportunity, but most people do not seize the opportunity, so they think that the opportunity has not come at all. ”

Hou Weidong said: "Minister Zhu is worthy of being a university teacher, and the theories are a set. ”

Zhu Xiaoyong said: "This is not something you learn in college, it's all life experience. The topic just now leads to another question, I am the old Taishan of Cheng, and the old Taishan of defeat, and the development space in Lingxi has been sealed. ”

Hou Weidong remembered Meng Haofang's previous secretary, and said, "You can also take the path of Brother Shuguang and go to other provinces." ”

Zhu Xiaoyong said: "It depends on the timing, it is a bit difficult for a deputy department-level cadre like me to go to other provinces." If you have the opportunity, you can find a way to leave Lingxi, whether it is to go to the central ministries or other provinces, it is better than staying in Lingxi. ”

Hou Weidong listened to Zhu Xiaoyong's straightforward words and said, "Why? ”

Zhu Xiaoyong said: "The situation between you and me is actually close, the relationship between you and Zhou Changquan and Zhu Yan is known throughout the province. ”

Hou Weidong has worked at the village, town, county, city, and provincial levels, and has a deep understanding of human and political conditions, and said: "Everyone's resources are limited, so after eliminating feelings, rational people will use their energy and money in the most effective place, and hot tea is of course better than cold tea." ”

Zhu Xiaoyong originally wanted to talk about Duan Yiyong's close relationship with Gao Yiyun and Yu Mingqiang, but then thought that Hou Weidong had a deep relationship with the deputy director of the Second Division of the Organization Department, so he must have known these things, so he didn't talk about it.

Walking up the gentle slope, Hou Weidong saw the figure of the director of the Ocean Department hanging on the lakeside from a distance, and said: "When you enter the officialdom, you will inevitably be brought into a gravitational field that cannot be stopped, keep moving forward, keep moving forward, this will make people lose their sense of direction, mission, and responsibility, and only think about running in the direction guided by the gravitational field." Ever since my mother and Governor Zhou were diagnosed with cancer, I felt that it was not the best life choice to keep running towards the gravitational field, because for most people, they must run to a bottleneck, and when they reach the bottleneck, most people will feel a strong sense of frustration in life, and will lose their sense of happiness and achievement. I am an ordinary young man from an ordinary family, studying in an ordinary local undergraduate college, and being able to take the position of mayor at this age can be regarded as smoking from the ancestral grave. I don't think too much about my position, I have to have the ability to resist the gravitational field, I can be the mayor of Maodong seriously, and do what I should do well, so I am very content, and as for whether I can go to the next level, I will follow the will of God and don't force it. ”

Zhu Xiaoyong was silent for a while, and said: "You are different from many high-ranking officials I know, they have too many interests entangled, so they have to move in the direction of the gravitational field, otherwise there is a danger of capsizing." ”

Hou Weidong pointed his finger and said: "You must keep a clear head, there are too many people who have been leaders for a long time, blindly confident, and self-inflated, so they have made many low-level mistakes." ”

While talking, the two came to the lake, and this time the rare chat-style conversation in which both sides relaxed ended.

"Director Guan, have you gained anything?" Hou Weidong came to Guan Haiyang's side and glanced down at the extremely traditional fish.

Guan Haiyang said: "It's not bad, I caught two crucian carp." Mayor Chu can't fish, and there has been no movement. ”

Chu Liang, as the executive deputy mayor, is usually so busy that his feet do not touch the ground, where is there time to fish, today he accompanied the director of the department to catch ducks on the shelves, standing by the lake, holding a fishing rod, and his mind flew 108,000 miles early. He said very cooperatively: "The director of the department is an expert, and I can only be regarded as an amateur, and my level is far behind." ”

Guan Haiyang said again: "Weidong, you are really dedicated, if the top administrative leaders in the province are like you, why worry about not doing a good job." I have met many secretaries and mayors, who usually shout slogans very loudly, but they don't go deep into reality, and they stutter when they ask professional questions, and they don't know what they want, obviously because they don't put their minds on their work. However, the reality is that these high-profile leaders frequently appear in the news media, and they are easily valued by the leaders, and they are promoted faster than the old scalpers who do practical things. He said this is also his own career, he has served as a department-level cadre for many years, has been in charge of one party, and has worked in the hall for many years, but it is difficult to go up as if he entered Shu Road, there is a transparent ceiling above his head, which is usually invisible, and every time he encounters a promotion opportunity, he appears hard above his head, like a sci-fi blockbuster.

Hou Weidong's experience has been relatively smooth, and he didn't care about the ocean so much, and said: "I don't know if the department has any subsidies for small rural sewage treatment projects, although this project is small, it is very beneficial to improve the rural environment and reduce non-point source pollution." ”

Guan Haiyang smiled: "Wei Dong is really a workaholic. He said to Liu Ning, the director of the office who followed him: "It's a fluke that no one succeeds, and if the directors of the department had half of Mayor Weidong's professionalism, they would have been promoted a long time ago." ”

Liu Ning said with a smile: "Mayor Hou is a role model for the comrades in the hall."

Liu Ning had a small friction with Hou Weidong many years ago, when he looked down on the comrades working in the county as the deputy director of the Water Conservancy Department. Over the years, he finally climbed from the deputy director to the position of the director, but people are more popular than people, Hou Weidong has become the main department-level real power on the ruling side, and he has only walked half a step, and the upgrade speed is as slow as a turtle.

Guan Haiyang said: "I want the comrades in the education department, don't keep thinking about being officials, as long as you do things well, the organization will naturally find out." ”

Liu Ning replied while slandering: "You don't believe this, it's okay to deceive a three-year-old child." ”

Guan Haiyang said a few words to Liu Ning, and then said to Hou Weidong: "The Environmental Protection Department is in charge of the small rural sewage treatment project, and as far as I know, they should have state funds." ”

When Hou Weidong was working in the provincial government, he had a lot of contact with the provincial environmental protection department, and after getting this information, he took it to heart, and when he had a spare time, he immediately called the municipal environmental protection bureau.

Hou Weidong said: "Director Guan, do you know about the small sewage treatment system in rural areas?" ”

Guan Yuanyue was stunned by the question, and said, "Mayor Hou, what kind of small rural sewage treatment system?" ”

Hou Weidong said: "The small sewage treatment system in rural areas treats non-point source pollution and solves the pollution problem of small villages. ”

Guan Yuanyue reacted at this time and said, "Mayor Hou, I know this. ”

Hou Weidong said: "You hurry up and discuss with the deputy in charge of business, find out the situation, are there any relevant subsidies in the province and the state?" Call me back in half an hour. ”

Guan Yuanyue put down the phone, ran out of the office quickly, stood on the aisle and said, "Immediately notify all the heads of the department and go to the small conference room for a meeting in ten minutes." ”

An office worker said, "Several offices are out of the scene. ”

Guan Yuanyue roared: "No matter where you are, you have to come back in ten minutes, usually you don't care about them, they just herd sheep, and there is no organizational discipline at all." Also, Director Peng must come back. ”

Director Peng, the deputy director in charge of rural non-point source pollution, is very familiar with the business, and Guan Yuanyue estimates that he is the only one who knows the real situation.

The staff said: "Director Peng is holding a meeting in the municipal party committee. ”

Guan Yuanyue said: "When the meeting is held, you wait at the venue, and if you have any questions, send a text message to Director Peng." ”
