Chapter 2: Desperate Situation
As if seeing Lu Jiang's hesitation, Qi Ming patted him on the shoulder and said, "You haven't been here for the past two days, I don't know a lot of things, and that Xiao Zheng from our batch has been sent down yesterday and went to the town." ”
As he spoke, Qi Ming looked around vigilantly and continued.
"Du Ze's old fox has already started to move, starting from the edge position, if we don't hurry up and take sides, sooner or later it will be our turn."
Lu Jiang was secretly surprised, he didn't expect Du Ze to start so quickly, and he didn't wait for the old leader's matter to be dealt with.
After a few puffs of cigarette, Lu Jiang made a choice.
"Nacheng, call me when you get off work, I'll go."
Qi Ming smiled knowingly, and then said: "The brothers have discussed, one person will pack a red envelope of 20,000 yuan, whether people want it or not is one thing, we have to understand something." ”
Lu Jiang smiled astringently and nodded.
After the divorce, he was almost out of the house and had no savings at all.
But this money must also be drawn, Lu Jiang thought that he had some bills in his hand, which he had saved by accompanying the old leader for entertainment before, and it should add up to 20,000 yuan, and it was enough to find the finance to report the money.
Back in the office, Lu Jiang sorted out all the documents and then came to the finance office.
Unexpectedly, the people from the finance department glanced at it and threw the documents back directly.
"Xiao Lu, I'm really sorry, the notice has just been issued above, and in the future, except for Secretary Yue's signature, nothing else can be reported."
Although the promotion and appointment of the county magistrate Yue has not yet come down, these people have already called him secretary.
This is basically tacit to everyone.
But Lu Jiang heard another meaning from the financial mouth, you must know that before, he called himself Secretary Lu, and his attitude was very enthusiastic, but now it has changed so much.
Does it mean that she has received some news that her position is not secure or that her position has changed?
Lu Jiang asked a few questions, but Finance obviously deliberately avoided this topic and couldn't get any useful information.
He could only return his mind to the bill.
He paid all the money himself, and now he is in a hurry to use it, so he has to find a way to report it.
When the old leader was there, he set the rule that he could not advance money in advance, and he set an example and could only be reimbursed with tickets.
Now it's a bit of a shot in the foot.
"Sister, you should know that I paid all this money in advance, and this report is very clear, and there is no fraud!"
But before Lu Jiang finished speaking, the finance was directly interrupted.
"I know, no one said that you fooled people with fake lists, the current rule is to only recognize Secretary Yue's signature, you can take these lists to find him, as long as he signs, there is absolutely no problem on my side."
The financial attitude is resolute, and the previous judgment is like two people.
People go to tea and cool, hehe, this sentence is not wrong at all.
Lu Jiang took the list to find Yue Qing, but was informed that the person had already gone to the city for a meeting and would not come back in two days.
There was no way, Lu Jiang could only withdraw 20,000 yuan from his credit card and wrap a big red envelope.
When he got off work, Qi Ming called Shang Lujiang and went to the best restaurant in the county.
There were two other people who came together, both of whom were close to the old leader in the past.
"There's nothing else to do tonight, just to make a statement, whether we go or stay, just see the performance for a while."
"As long as we rely on the big tree of County Magistrate Du, we can save our jobs."
Qi Ming has always been very good at enlivening the atmosphere, and after ordering a table of good dishes, he said with a smile.
Although Lu Jiang had a grudge in his heart, he kept persuading himself not to think too much, even if he pretended to be inflammatory, he had to pass this pass.
But no one expected that after waiting for nearly an hour, Du Ze still didn't appear.
Qi Ming went out for a turn, and then walked in with a sad face, and after scanning a few people, he sighed and said, "County Magistrate Du is here, but next door, I heard that I am meeting a very important person." ”
The helplessness in Qi Ming's tone could be heard, and the people present could only smile awkwardly when they glanced at each other.
They are just the most grassroots cadres, and naturally they are not qualified to influence the leader's itinerary, but being hung out like this is really disturbing, and it is not to leave, nor to stay.
"Wait a minute, I met County Magistrate Du's secretary just now, he knows the situation on our side, and said that he will find time to come over, and then we will talk about it then."
Everyone was speechless, but their expressions were a little lonely.
The county magistrate Du did not come forward and asked a secretary of the same level as them to come over to pass the word, which had already explained his attitude.
The dish was already cold, and after several people discussed, they decided not to wait any longer, so they ate it.
Everyone was in a bad mood, and the wine went down quickly, and Lu Jiang drank almost a pound of liquor alone.
Finally, nearly an hour later, the secretary of the county magistrate Lu walked in with a wine burp.
He glanced at everyone, and then said with a smile: "You have been waiting for a long time, County Magistrate Du asked me to tell you, I'm really sorry, I really can't spare time." ”
"However, he knows who is here, and he asked me to tell you, don't worry too much, he knows how to arrange work in the future."
As soon as this sentence came out, a trace of surprise flashed on the faces of several people who were not in high spirits.
They all stood up and said compliments and actively toasted.
"Then thank you Secretary Cao!"
"I hope Secretary Cao will help me a lot in the future."
"Yes, if Secretary Cao has anything to do in the future, we will definitely saddle the horse for you."
Secretary Cao was very satisfied with everyone's attitude, and said with an official smile: "It's serious, it's all for work, everyone just needs to cooperate well." ”
Lu Jiang also got up, holding the liquor, and wanted to clink glasses with Secretary Cao, but he didn't know whether the other party was intentional or unintentional, so he actually avoided it.
This feeling is really aggrieved, no matter what occasion Lu Jiang attended, he was the one who was surrounded in the past.
Now, huh......
The roles have been reversed.
Although he was a little frustrated, Lu Jiang knew that this was a process he had to go through.
From the moment the old leader fell, the future road can only rely on himself.
After a glass of wine, Secretary Cao paused, then narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Actually, you are all smart people, I won't say anything superfluous, but my brother really has something I want to ask you for help." ”
"I'm in a hurry to come out today, I didn't bring much cash, don't settle the bill with County Magistrate Du, so ......"
Everyone present was stunned, and no one was a fool to enter the secretary's office, and they all heard the meaning of this sentence.
Lu Jiang was also a little stunned, knowing that this was the real purpose of Secretary Cao's coming.
However, he was still a little surprised by such an open request, and he did not dare to act like this even when he was the secretary of the secretary.
"No problem, let's scrape together this money, we definitely can't embarrass Secretary Cao."
Qi Ming stood up to break the deadlock, took out the red envelope from his pocket, and stuffed it into Secretary Cao's hand.
"Actually, we have been ready for a long time......"
The other two understood, and also handed out red envelopes.
Lu Jiang followed, but Secretary Cao did not accept his red envelope, but looked at him meaningfully.
"Yo, I drank a lot this night, and I didn't see Secretary Lu sitting here for half a day."
Secretary Cao smiled strangely and looked Lu Jiang up and down.
Lu Jiang laughed dryly, this title is particularly harsh now, no different from being slapped in the face.
