The silver-gray van carrying the members of the provincial support group continued to speed on the highway, and Liu Dake and his entourage seemed to be still immersed in the atmosphere of welcome, and everyone appreciated the warm welcome of Wu Qiang and the leaders of various districts and counties. Liu Dake also seemed to feel very face-saving, and was very satisfied with the greeting just now, listening to everyone's discussions, the corners of his mouth still looked at him, and he smiled.

"How about it, what do you have to do with the contact you just had?" Suddenly, Liu Da laughed and said, his eyes kept moving around the faces of each cadre on temporary duty. Everyone didn't know what Liu Dake was thinking at this time, for fear of asking himself, and his answer was not in Liu Dake's mind, some lowered their heads as if they were thinking, and some looked out of the car, as if they were enjoying the scenery of the harvest in the fields, and avoided Liu Dake's gaze in various ways. Liu Dake stopped his gaze on Gao Yan's face, and saw that Gao Yan had been looking out of the car, so he said, "Section Chief Gao, I want to hear your opinion." Gao Yan was stunned for a moment and said, "Director Liu, I'll sing you another song." As soon as Gao Yan's words fell, there was a commotion in the carriage. Liu Dake shook his head, and a wry smile flashed at the corner of his mouth. Liu Dake didn't seem to be very satisfied with Gao Yan's performance, so he looked at Liang Haixing again and said, "Xiao Liang, what do you feel about your pole?" Liang Haixing blurted out: "Pressure or responsibility." Liang Haixing's answer made Liu Dake very satisfied. Liu Dake looked at Liang Haixing with a long smile and said, "Be more specific." ”

Liang Haixing thought for a while and said: "The first time we came to Mashan as a temporary position, it was also the first time for the local leaders of Mashan, they were so enthusiastic about us, not because of our respect for ourselves, but because of the importance of our help work, and for our future actions, there are more expectations, for us, it is responsibility and pressure." ”

"It's still a show to have a level." Liang Haixing had just finished answering, and Gao Yan said.

Liu Dake glanced at Gao Yan, and Gao Yan seemed to feel that she had something to say, so she stuck out her tongue, her face full of shame. Liu Dake said: "It seems that everyone really has to prepare well, once everyone is allowed to express their position, everyone will say what is in their hearts, to reflect our determination and confidence, and show a little level." ”

The sun is setting, and the western sky is like blood. Under the leadership of Wu Qiang, Liu Dake and his entourage soon came to the first stop of their upcoming work, the Mashan Hotel, which is also the first guest house of the Municipal Party Committee, and the place where the leaders of the Municipal Party Committee officially receive guests and hold important meetings. However, to Liu Dake's surprise, when the convoy drove into the courtyard of the hotel, except for the parking of many cars, which seemed to indicate that there was an important event in Mashan City, everything was quiet and deserted, which formed a sharp contrast with the warm welcome on the highway.

Before, when he went to the Mashan Bureau for investigation, Liu Dake had stayed in the Mashan Hotel, and he was no stranger to the environment in the hotel, but despite this, maybe in the future, his work and life will be in the hotel, and after getting off the bus, Liu Dake's eyes are still looking around, and he seems to feel very fresh about everything in the hotel.

Wu Qiang saw Liu Dake looking around in the courtyard of the hotel alone, and after the car was parked, he hurriedly got out of the car and walked towards Liu Dake.

Seeing Liu Dake, Wu Qiang hurriedly smiled and said, "How is it?" The environment here is okay, right? ”

It seems that Liu Dake doesn't mind the snub in front of him, but said: "The change in Mashan is really big, when I came to investigate a year ago, the hotel was still bare, you see now, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, the small bridge is flowing water, the beautiful rockery, and the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River." ”

"With your help, in less than three years, the development of the entire Mashan will surpass Jiangnan. Let's go, let's go upstairs, Secretary Zhou is waiting for you in the conference room. Wu Qiang's gaze was a little ashamed.

"Why are you so lonely?" I don't know who said it, Liu Daqiang couldn't help but look back, everyone was not saying anything, and walked towards the building with Wu Qiang and Liu Dake.

Under the guidance of Wu Qiang, when Liu Dake walked into the VIP lounge, Zhou Siguo, secretary of the Mashan Municipal Party Committee, was sitting on the sofa watching TV intently, and the weather forecast for Mashan was being broadcast on TV. Seeing that Liu Dake was a little puzzled, Wu Qiang whispered in Liu Dake's ear: "Secretary Zhou has a habit of watching the weather forecast in Mashan every day, and Secretary Zhou looks at the weather forecast and doesn't want anyone to disturb him." ”

Hearing Wu Qiang's explanation, and in order to avoid disturbing Zhou Siguo to see the weather forecast, Liu Dake quietly withdrew from the VIP lounge and waited quietly at the door.

It has not been a long time since he stepped into the realm of Mashan, but Liu Dake has a lot of doubts about the political ecology of Mashan, and seems to feel that it is not as simple as the department. Although I don't know about the team of Mashan City, but I feel a little delicate, this week's secretary, but also the future of his own leader, how can the spectrum be so big, as the provincial help working group, is to come to Mashan on behalf of SW to help economic construction, new arrival, although there is no need to be too grandly received, but it will not be so cold, as the leader of the working group, and the deputy department-level leader, Zhou Siguo saw himself, his eyes looked at the TV, his buttocks did not rise, his eyelids did not open, and he was too snub to himself. And the Wu Qiang in front of him doesn't seem to be the main member of the municipal party committee team at all, but like a shopkeeper. Is Zhou Siguo's style too domineering, or does this Wu Qiang have any handle in Zhou Siguo's hands? It stands to reason that it shouldn't be, as far as I know, Wu Qiang, as a grassroots cadre, has come to today's position step by step by relying on his own ability.

Just when Liu Dake was thinking nonsense, there was a sound of talking in the lounge, and Liu Dake knew that the weather forecast was finished, so he looked at Wu Qiang. It seemed that Wu Qiang was very embarrassed at this time, his focused eyes looked at the lounge through the crack in the door, his ears were quietly listening to the movement inside, Wu Qiang saw Liu Dake looking at himself and understood Liu Dake's mind, so he nodded to Liu Dake.

Under Wu Qiang's push, Liu Dake walked into the VIP lounge with the temporary cadres. As soon as he saw Liu Dake, Zhou Siguo stood up from the sofa, stepped forward, held Liu Dake's hand, and said with a smile on his face: "Welcome Liu Dake, come to our Mashan to serve." Liu Dake said with a smile: "I will work under you in the future, how forgiving." ”

Zhou Siguo didn't say much, and after greeting Liu Dake, he shook hands with the cadres who came to take up his post one by one, and Liu Dake stood aside to make an introduction. Zhou Siguo's eyes looked at Wu Qiang, who was standing on the side with a smile on his face from time to time, and his face seemed to be a little gloomy. Zhou Siguo glanced at Wu Qiang and complained: "Mashan is not your own home, it belongs to the people of the city. Director Liu is here, why don't you say it in advance? Doesn't that mean we don't know how to be polite? Wu Qiang seemed to be speechless, smiled slightly, and had no words. When Zhou Siguo came to Gao Yan, he couldn't help but be stunned, and said, "How can I be familiar with you?" Gao Yan smiled slightly, not knowing how to answer, and looked at Zhou Siguo with puzzled eyes. Zhou Siguo seemed to remember something, and said, "Do you have a relative......?" After being reminded by Zhou Siguo, Gao Yan remembered that Zhou Siguo's younger brother worked in the SW Organization Department, and his uncle also worked in the SW Organization Department. "Your uncle?" Zhou Siguo was trying his best to reminisce. Gao Yan knew that the current leader was very taboo about the relationship with the Organization Department, so he said: "My uncle's name is Gao Dai, and he is now in the ....... Zhou Siguo suddenly realized and said: "I remember, your uncle came to Anqing two years ago to take up his post, and took the time to ask your uncle to come to Mashan to have a look." Liu Dake's eyes moved around between Gao Yan and Zhou Siguo, and thought: It seems that Zhao Liang recommended Gao Yan to take up a temporary post, and the personnel relationship here is indeed complicated.

After Zhou Siguo met with the cadres on temporary duty, he sat on the sofa, and after the cadres on temporary duty sat down one by one, Zhou Siguo solicited Liu Dake's opinions on the next work arrangement. Zhou Siguo said: "Director Liu, do you see if this is the case, you are new to the city, and you don't know much about the situation in Mashan. In addition, we will soon enter the busy season of three autumns, Mashan is a big agricultural city after all, and this autumn harvest is still the top priority of all our work. This harvest is not necessarily a good harvest, we want a good harvest, and there are many factors that affect the harvest. According to the law of the past, perhaps God deliberately tested people, the weather during this period is the most unstable, there is a possibility of a sudden heavy rain, will be about to put into the pocket of all the grain rotten in the ground, a major drought may affect this year's autumn planting, will affect next year's summer harvest. Every year before the autumn harvest, we don't dare to be careless, and I may have put more effort into ensuring the autumn harvest lately. Zhou Siguo said and glanced at Wu Qiang and Shan Yanqing, the deputy mayor in charge of the city government, respectively, and said: "In this way, what are the requirements for the assistance work, especially Director Liu, Lao Wu and Lao Dan, you should consider more." ”

Liu Da said with a smile: "Secretary Zhou is not polite, since we have come to work in Mashan, from now on, we will be cadres of Mashan City, and everything will be subject to the arrangements of the Mashan Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government." ”

Zhou Siguo hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Words, you can't say that, you were sent by SW to help us develop the economy." Although he works in Mashan, he is still a cadre in the province. After Zhou Siguo finished speaking, he looked at Wu Qiang again: "Have you arranged the accommodation and living of the leaders in the province?" ”

Wu Qiang nodded. Zhou Siguo didn't wait for Wu Qiang to speak, he looked at Liu Dake again and said: "The conditions in the city are relatively poor, you first live in the Municipal Party Committee Guest House, which is this Mashan Hotel, if it is not very convenient with the development of work, then make adjustments." ”

Liu Dake smiled slightly, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "We are here to work in Mashan, as long as we have a place to live." ”

"After a while, in order to give you a preliminary understanding of the economic development of Mashan, I will give you a brief introduction to Mashan, especially the economic development. You can also need the cooperation and support of Mashan City, put forward a few requirements to us, and we can get to know each other. Then, tonight, I'm going to have a meal with your working group, and there are some things that we can exchange at the dinner table. Zhou Siguo looked at Liu Dake and said. After Zhou Siguo finished speaking, he looked at Gao Yan again, and said, "Xiao Gao, you have to behave well tonight, I know your uncle's amount of alcohol, don't give me an ambush." Gao Yan's face was slightly red, and she said softly: "Our Gao family's drinking gene is passed on to men but not to women. Zhou Siguo said: "Is it like what you said, just try it." After Zhou Siguo finished speaking, he glanced at Liu Dake and said, "Director Liu, let's go to the venue." Zhou Siguo got up and walked outside the lounge as he spoke, and Liu Dake hurriedly got up and followed behind Zhou Siguo. Seeing this, Zhou Siguo hurriedly put Liu Dake in front of him and said, "You are in front." Seeing the situation, he pushed Zhou Siguo in front of him and said: "You are the secretary, I am under your leadership, and you are in front." Zhou Siguo refused, looked at Liu Dake and said: "You are still a guest today, and you will be a member of Mashan City after the meeting." ”

As the welcome meeting came to an end, Zhou Siguo made a brief summary of the meeting, specifically emphasizing: "All the economic assistance work in the county and district is carried out under the unified leadership of the city. The tasks or conditions set by the city must be carried out to the letter. It's politics. After emphasizing, Zhou Siguo said: "I just read the weather forecast, in the past two days, there is a strong convective weather in the sky over our Mashan, at this time, I hope that the leaders at all levels here, especially the leaders of various departments and units related to agriculture, will open their eyes wide, clean their ears, and whoever drops the chain at the critical moment will be seriously held accountable." I think everyone will understand the importance of the autumn harvest, and if I emphasize it too much, I don't want to say too much, so let's watch it. Meeting. ”
