Ma Shunliang was accustomed to sitting on the sofa that Hu Fan had just sat on. The difference is that every time he walks into Liu Dake's office, Ma Shunliang is like a beautiful emperor, hanging his head, not even daring to breathe, for fear that his inappropriate behavior will annoy Liu Dake and cause Liu Dake's unprincipled criticism. I don't know why, Liu Dake especially looks down on Ma Shunliang, seeing Ma Shunliang is like seeing his grandson, and he never takes into account Ma Shunliang's feelings when he speaks. What is commendable is that Ma Shunliang seems to understand Liu Dake very well, just as Liu Dake understands himself, and shows great tolerance for Liu Dake, never refutes or holds grudges, as always.

Taking advantage of Liu Dake's inattention, Ma Shunliang glanced at Liang Haixing's resignation application on the coffee table, not only immediately understood everything in front of him, but also had a premonition of what was going to happen, so he opened the record book habitually, and his head seemed to hang lower than usual, almost crawling on the coffee table in front of him.

"Shun Liang, as the deputy director in charge of personnel work, you should be more familiar with cadre policies than me." Liu Dake played with the Buddha beads and asked casually.

Ma Shunliang didn't understand Liu Dake's thoughts at this time, let alone the meaning of his words, so he didn't dare to answer rashly, nor did he dare to raise his head, as if he didn't hear it, he still lowered his head, ready to record Liu Dake's instructions at any time. Liu Dake seemed to see Ma Shunliang's thoughts, and without waiting for his answer, he said again: "If I'm not mistaken, you have been in the position of deputy hall for five or six years, right?" ”

"Hmm."

"Among the team members, although you are not the oldest, you are relatively old. These days, I have been studying the cadre policy, and I think that it should have both its principle and its flexibility, and to be more specific, on the issue of promotion, we must adhere to the principle, just like the deputy director of the department must be promoted to inspector for more than four years, and no one can break through this point. But on the issue of specific candidates, you can be flexible, for example, morality, ability, diligence, performance, and integrity, if he has not made mistakes, has not been dealt with and disciplined by the organization, can you say, who is weak and who is strong? In particular, this is a vacant position in the main hall, not only to look at the qualifications, but also to refer to the age factor, some department leaders are obviously about to reach retirement age, there is a quota in the main hall, if it is not given, then this comrade will lose the opportunity to be promoted to the main hall. Besides, if you give it to him, when he retires, won't he soon be able to pour out the number of posts again? It's just that other comrades enjoy the treatment of the main department two years later. Therefore, personnel work, like other work, must have an overall mind and a vision of the overall situation. ”

If it were someone else, or someone who didn't know Liu Dake, would definitely be enthusiastic when they heard his words. Liu Dake's meaning is already very clear, that is, considering Ma Shunliang's rank treatment, at the moment of retirement, the organization solves the inspector for himself, not only the promotion of rank, the improvement of salary, but more importantly, the affirmation of his hard work is about to be a lifetime of work, and it is also a comfort to his family and friends, which is a great thing that many people dream of. But Ma Shunliang felt an invisible pressure, I don't know if it was because of the heat, the sweat in Ma Shunliang's palms kept oozing.

"I still have documents to work on urgently. Well, let's get to that first. Liu Dake said as he got up and wanted to walk towards the desk. But Ma Shunliang was still sitting on the sofa, looking at Liu Dake's back with puzzled eyes, he knew Liu Dake too well, Liu Dake would never chat with him, let alone take the initiative to care about himself. Sure enough, as soon as Liu Dake raised his head and found Liang Haixing's resignation application on the coffee table, he stopped the steps he had just taken, glanced at Ma Shunliang, and said with a smile: "Have you read Xiaoliang's resignation application?" ”

Ma Shunliang glanced at Liang Haixing's resignation application, and pretended to be careless: "Hmm." ”

"What do you mean by 'um', have you even seen it?" Liu Dake seemed to be educating primary school students, and said with a smile on his face, so that people couldn't see his thoughts at this time.

Ma Shunliang didn't know what Liang Haixing and Liu Dake talked about, so he didn't know how to answer. If he told the truth, then Liu Dake would definitely blame himself for why he didn't stop it and handed over the contradictions; If he lies, if Liang Haixing tells Liu Dake the truth and does not report to Liu Dake truthfully, then Liu Dake will be even more annoyed. After thinking about it, Ma Shunliang felt that it was better to pretend to be deaf and stupid as usual, so he bowed his head and remained silent.

"Shunliang, your character is really incomprehensible. Are you at home, with your lover? Don't you communicate all day long? Liu Dake looked at Ma Shunliang and smiled.

After working together for a long time, Liu Dake knows what Ma Shunliang is thinking and how he will express it. He knew that in front of him, Ma Shunliang was like a ripe persimmon, no matter how he pinched it, he didn't wait for Ma Shunliang to answer, and said: "Shunliang, it's not that I insulted you, just your character, you should be transgender and make yourself beautiful." Then, find a big money or a big guy and be a full-time wife. When you were first promoted, some department leaders strongly objected, saying that your ability was too poor and that you were absolutely incompetent for your job. As a result, I found that what people say is good, where is your ability too poor, it's terried. I think your position should be changed to Xiao Liang. Am I right, Shun Liang? ”

Liu Dake still looked at Ma Shunliang and smiled, without any resentment. Maybe I got used to it, but when I heard Liu Dake's vicious words and insults, I didn't react at all. But he scolded in his heart: You Liu Dake are talking nonsense with your eyes open, before you appointed the director, I was already a member of the party group and deputy director. Maybe your ability is indeed a little different from your requirements, but since you sit in the position of the number one, when have you taken the initiative to consult me about work, when have you treated me as a deputy director, all work is not directly decided by you, I am just a scarecrow who can breathe, your punching bag.

Ma Shunliang lowered his head like a wooden man, ready to record Liu Dake's important instructions.

Maybe Liu Dake realized that what he said was a little excessive, so he softened his tone and said, "Shunliang, you are really a good person, and your ability and level are really sad." How many times have I told you, there is no trivial matter in personnel work, according to the division of responsibilities, you have to manage boldly, I will support you in the background, and I will give you a pocket if something happens. But how are you doing? I'm in charge of the work of the whole department, and I'm usually busy enough, can you help your eldest brother, at least you should do a good job of the work you are in charge of. But as a result, the cadre in charge of you has this kind of incident, how do you usually educate as the deputy director in charge? Aren't you responsible? You're still sitting here like nothing. ”

Liu Dake is right, Ma Shunliang is recognized as a good person in the whole hall and is very loyal to Liu Dake. Whether it is Liu Dake organizing a meeting or giving instructions, Ma Shunliang will always carry a record book, except for Liu Dake's humiliating words that he is embarrassed to write down, every sentence Liu Dake has said, Ma Shunliang will try to write it down as much as possible. Once the subordinates report their work, when Ma Shunliang feels that his requirements are not consistent with Liu Dake's requirements or deviate, Ma Shunliang will open the record book to see what Liu Dake said first, and even study with relevant cadres until they unify their thinking and understanding. Then it's how to implement it. Some people say that although Liu Dake is not a Buddha, his words are a mantra that Ma Shunliang put on his head. As a result, although Liu Dake's criticism and even humiliation of Ma Shunliang has become commonplace and a piece of cake, Ma Shunliang's position seems to be very stable, and every time the members of the party group in the hall are adjusted, the division of labor will be rearranged accordingly, but Ma Shunliang has always been in charge of personnel work, one of the most important positions in the department. However, why do Liu Dake and Ma Shunliang have prejudices, but their division of labor has not been adjusted? This seems to have become a mystery to the whole hall again.

Some people also privately said that Ma Shunliang is the real wisdom and foolishness. Ma Shunliang knew very well in his heart that Liu Dake knew that his level was low and his ability was poor, and he still let himself be in charge of such an important work as personnel, and the real reason was that Liu Dake felt that he could completely manipulate him Ma Shunliang.

It was not long after Liu Dake served as the deputy director, the provincial party committee adjusted a cadre from a foreign organ to serve as the deputy director, Liu Dake felt that the foreign deputy director had a wide range of connections, both work ability and coordination ability, so he handed over the personnel work to the newly adjusted deputy director in charge, but I didn't expect that the new deputy director really regarded himself as the leader of the department in charge, and there were many things without asking Liu Dake's opinion, so he made the decision. Some department leaders also kindly reminded the new deputy director that on personnel issues, Liu Dake should be consulted more. As a result, the new deputy director still went his own way. Liu Dake casually found a reason to make a new adjustment to the division of labor among the leaders of the department, and the new deputy director changed from a supervisor to an assistant, however, the deputy director did not seem to really understand Liu Dake's true intentions, and he remained the same. Maybe Liu Da could see that he was really hopeless, and after reporting and communicating with the provincial party committee, he ordered the deputy director to retire. And the reason is simple: you can't stick to normal work.

The new deputy director was puzzled, so he asked Liu Dake to find out the reason. Liu Dake pretended to be confused and said with a smile: "I don't know why, the above was supposed to inspect you to serve as a leading cadre at the department level in other departments and bureaus, at that time, I thought, this is a good thing." You know, although I am very reluctant to let our cadres go. But as long as it is conducive to the progress of cadres, I have never stopped it. As you know, the quota for the cadres at the department level in our department has been exhausted. I didn't expect it to turn out like this. What kind of illness do you have that you can't go to work normally? Why didn't you tell me in advance, I also only found out after receiving the order from above, we have worked together for so long, and you don't let me know about your poor health, is it because my bureaucrats don't care about their subordinates, or do you not take the initiative to report to me? ”

When the new deputy director heard this, he knew that Liu Dake was deliberately fooling himself, so he said loudly: "I am sick, I have a neuropathy." After speaking, the deputy director shook the door of Liu Dake's office and walked away.

It didn't take long for the new deputy director to get a nervous disorder in the department organs, and even in the provincial organs. Liu Dake first sent people to visit the deputy director often, but he was scolded by the deputy director every time. Later, the cadres of the agency really thought that the deputy director had a nervous disorder. Later, the deputy director was sent to a neurological hospital in the field. Later, the deputy director committed suicide by jumping off the building while the doctor was not paying attention. Liu Dake personally presided over the farewell ceremony of the body, tearfully introducing the glorious and great life of the deputy director. Some people also said that if the deputy director heard Liu Dake comment on himself, he might stand up and thank Liu Dake.
