The phone was made by Wei Hongyan, director of the county party committee office: "Standing Committee member Zhao, when do you have time, I will take you to see the office." ”

"Right now."

"Where are you? I'll go to you. ”

"Go straight to the office."

"Okay. Get out of the elevator on the fifth floor and turn right, I'll wait for you. ”

After the two agreed, Zhao Linran ended the call, turned around and entered the building.

Through the simple conversation just now, including the previous meeting and greetings, Zhao Linran realized that Wei Hongyan should be a person who knows how to advance and retreat, and knows how to measure things, and I don't know if he can put himself in the right position in actual work.

When Zhao Linran came to the fifth floor, Wei Hongyan was already waiting at the door of the office in advance.

Dressed in a navy blue professional suit, dark undershirt, black leather shoes, the face is slightly rounded, and the hair is covered with a hair net behind the head.

"Zhao Standing Committee, please!"

Wei Hongyan pushed open the door and leaned sideways.

"You please! Please also don't call it that, significantly too raw. ”

Facing Zhao Linran's humility, Wei Hongyan did not answer, but his smile was even thicker, and he still gestured sideways.

"Thank you!" Zhao Linran was no longer polite and stepped into the house.

Wei Hongyan immediately followed: "Time is a little tight, the furniture has not been fully purchased, strive to put it in place within ten days, these days you go to the county hotel to work and rest." In addition, the house also needs to be renovated for a period of time, and Deputy County Magistrate Zhao is also requested to understand. ”

Zhao Linran could see that the room was very large, divided into inside and outside, and it should have been a reception room before. So he asked, "Don't you have a ready-made house?" ”

"Yes, yes, but after all, it was ...... before" Wei Hongyan stopped talking, a little embarrassed.

Of course, Zhao Linran understood, what the other party meant was that the empty houses had been lived in by corrupt officials before, but he didn't care: "It's okay, take me to see it." ”

"Okay." Wei Hongyan agreed and took Zhao Linran to another room on the same floor.

Then he explained, "Next to it is the office of the executive deputy county magistrate, which is the house of the former standing committee member and deputy county magistrate. ”

This house is still not small, the office furniture is complete, and it is very new, and the bed and sanitary ware in the inner room are all available.

After seeing the inside and outside of the house, Zhao Linran said: "It's okay here, don't go to the county hotel, and you don't have to run back and forth." ”

"Not quite right."

"There's nothing out of place, you don't have to change the furniture, you can just replace the consumables."

"Okay. Then I'll find you a place to take a lunch break temporarily. ”

"I don't need to look for a place to take a lunch break, I just went out for a walk. First of all. ”

After Zhao Linran finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the house directly.

Looking at the direction of the door, Wei Hongyan was a little puzzled: is he easy to speak, or is he not clear about the rules of officialdom? It's said to be at this level, so it should be more easy-going.

Zhao Linran had just arrived at the hall on the first floor and happened to see Xuan Jian, so he asked, "How are you going through the formalities?" ”

"It's all done, and the dormitories are settled. Director Wei called in advance and asked people to lead it, and it went very smoothly. After Xuan Jian returned, he asked again, "Where did you send your belongings?" When will it be delivered? ”

Zhao Linran was very happy to hear it: "Don't rush to get things, go out to eat first, I'm really hungry." ”

In this way, the two walked out of the county party committee, found a restaurant nearby, ordered three special dishes, and ate and drank tea and water.

Originally, I wanted to listen to some rumors in the market, but I didn't think that the other tables were all relatives of each other, and they were all short of parents, and there was no content that Zhao Linran was interested in. However, the dishes tasted good, all three dishes were eaten, and two bowls of rice were eaten out per person.

Coming out of the restaurant, the two of them strolled along the side of the road casually, watching as they went.

The weather in late August has some autumn tiger heat, but not the kind of exposure, but a dull heat. The sky is also foggy, not cloudy, mainly because the air quality is too poor and the sun is not transparent.

The street trees were all dry, some of them had turned yellow, and the grass in the nests had barely turned green, sprinkled with fine black slag.

All the buildings are covered in gray, the door signs are greasy and greasy, and the cloth is black. The tall buildings are particularly dilapidated, but their majestic shapes and individual accents show a time of glory.

Whether it is a passerby or a trader at the door of the store, their faces seem to have not been washed, and they look bitter.

Corresponding to the lifeless towns are the luxury cars that pass by from time to time, and the people who get on and off the luxury cars. These people wear big gold trowels, and the gold necklace is almost as thick as a little thumb, and they have a loud voice, and they are stolen at all, and they don't look at people at all, and they have a proper nouveau riche image. It doesn't seem to belong here at all, but the strong dialect flavor of Mandarin shows that they are natives.

What doesn't match luxury cars and nouveau riche, in addition to the whole town, there are also gig job seekers everywhere. These people were sitting, lying or leaning, and some were holding crude signs with the words "scraping putty" and "moving", all of them in shabby clothes, and the whole person was almost lifeless.

"Whew",

Suddenly, all of them jumped up, as if a wolf had seen food, and pounced with their eyes wide open, as if a customer had come to the door.

"You can't fucking do it, you're as skinny as a monkey."

"Is it working or not, the big belly is about to catch up with Lao Tzu."

"One hundred and two, half a day, it's okay, it's okay, it's not okay to pull it down."

"Three-legged toads are hard to find, but there are many living people with two legs."

After some picking, the patron got into the car, and two sturdy men rode electric tricycles, like dogs picking bones, and chased after them.

"Hey", Zhao Linran looked at the humility of these people, and naturally remembered the numb expressions in the conference room, and the raised right hand stopped in mid-air, and his mood was very complicated for a while.

"Whew",

"I, I'll go." Suddenly, someone rushed over.

Followed by a group of people, they got up one after another and rushed towards Zhao Linran.

Xuan Jian was about to make a move subconsciously, but was stopped by Zhao Linran softly: "Don't move." ”

"I'll go, I'll go."

"I, I. What to live? ”

"How many?"

"Don't worry about the food, just settle the bill after you finish your work."

When these people came near, they gossiped and shouted, and even rushed into each other at the expense of their eyes.

"I don't hire anyone." Zhao Linran said.

"Don't hire anyone? So what are you doing here? The red-faced man at the front crooked his mouth.

Zhao Linran was stunned for a moment, and then withdrew his right hand: "I'll lift it casually." ”

"Isn't that? It's okay, why are you carrying that? The red-faced man snorted dissatisfiedly and turned to leave.

Others have complained:

"I'm really full, and I'm happy."

"At first glance, it is a monkey, white and pure, sour and vinegar."

"."

Xuan Jian couldn't help but get angry, but Zhao Linran hurriedly stretched out his hand and grabbed it: "No, no." ”

"Brother, hold on, don't die." Suddenly, a terrible cry rang out.

Zhao Linran subconsciously turned his head to look, and then raised his hand and pointed: "Who do you see who is that?" ”
