"Time flies so fast, how many years have it been, our class, is there no higher than the two of us?" Hou Wenguang handed Qiu Mingde a cigarette, but Qiu Mingde refused.

"When my wife left, I held back at home for a month, smoked a dozen cigarettes, and then quit." Qiu Mingde explained.

Hou Wenguang nodded and put down the cigarette in his hand.

The two drank tea and talked about the things they had done in school in the past, as well as reminiscing about their classmates one by one, some of them retreated, some sacrificed, and some of them left the police post halfway through.

"In a few days, you will be the only one, to be honest, let me go to the city government, I am really unwilling." Hou Wenguang said.

Qiu Mingde didn't squeak, from beginning to end, Hou Wenguang said more, and Qiu Mingde said less.

"Have you heard? The city signed an agreement with Guilu Group, and the 1.7 billion debt for the construction of the municipal government building, Guilu Group gave up, what do you say I, the deputy mayor, have to do......" Hou Wenguang didn't finish speaking, and this time Qiu Mingde interrupted him.

"No, Lao Hou, you see, the problem is this, you have just been transferred from the city bureau to the municipal government, and immediately, the debt of more than a billion yuan on the head of the municipal government will be gone, it seems that everyone knows the relationship between you and the Guilu Group, and you have given the city a good attitude." Qiu Mingde said with a smile.

This was originally a joke, but Hou Wenguang was very sensitive at the moment, Qiu Mingde said this, he couldn't laugh at all, and said slowly that it was not his credit, but as an old classmate who was about to become the director of the Nangang City Bureau, what did he plan to do?

"What, isn't it?" Qiu Mingde saw that Hou Wenguang was not the slightest bit happy because of his joke, so he also restrained his smile and asked.

Hou Wenguang continued: "Brother, I am very happy that you came to Nangang City, but at the same time, I am very worried about you, how to say it, Nangang is a place where the water is very deep, as the director of the municipal bureau, you must encounter many more problems than ordinary people, I know, you will soon become the deputy mayor, but the depth of the water here is not what the people in the newly built building in Nangang can tell, and the decision of the depth is up to it." ”

When Hou Wenguang said this, he pointed to the ceiling.

Qiu Mingde was unmoved, smiled, and did not speak.

"In order to keep your brother from suffering, tonight, I saved up a game, please give me this face." Hou Wenguang said.

Qiu Mingde didn't say no, Hou Wenguang continued: "Many of the problems in Nangang City are related to Qiu Chengan, the former secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and the one most closely related to Qiu Chengan is Kan Zhengde of Guilu Group, he is now abroad, and he will be back soon, tonight is his son who invites you to dinner, it is considered to be a acquaintance, he is the magistrate of Wuyang County, you should know this." ”

Qiu Mingde nodded when he heard this, looked down at the tea on the table, stretched out his hand, and said, "Drink tea." ”

Hou Wenguang saw that he didn't give an immediate reply, so he picked up the cup, took a sip, and continued: "Actually, I'm also for your good, if you give them the impression of uncooperation as soon as you come up, then the things that follow will be even more difficult." ”

Qiu Mingde finally agreed, so he said: "Okay, you decide the place, and I will go to the appointment on time when the time comes." ”

"Hey, how can I let you go alone, I'll pick you up." Hou Wenguang said.

After Hou Wenguang left, Qiu Mingde stood in the corridor of the guest house, until Hou Wenguang's car disappeared at the gate, he still did not leave, at this time in Nangang, the weather was a little cold, and the climate of his original Wangchuan City was much worse, a mountain lay in the middle of Donghai Province, east and west, the result was a completely different climate in Shannan and Shanbei.

He was also wondering if his oranges, from Shannan, would adapt to the climate of Shanbei.

He tightened his collar, returned to the room, walked into the study inside, and called Man Zhengwu, the secretary of the municipal party committee.

"Secretary Man, I'm in Nangang, no, I just stayed, do you have time now, I'll go over and report to you about the work......"

"If you don't report anything, you can see me at any time, come over now, I'll wait for you in the office." Man Zhengwu said in a loud voice.

Man Zhengwu's attitude made Qiu Mingde very emotional, because when he got out of the elevator, he saw that Man Zhengwu was already waiting for him at the door of the office.

Qiu Mingde hurriedly ran over, Man Zhengwu stretched out his hand to him, and the two shook hands firmly before they could speak.

"Sit down, everything at home has been arranged?" Man Zhengwu asked.

Qiu Mingde sighed and said: "My parents are old, and the child is brought to my sister-in-law, I am busy with work, and I can't intervene, so I can only do this for the time being." ”

Man Zhengwu nodded, and also sighed, but immediately said: "Your cousin will come over in a few days, you can make do with it in the guest house these days, and I am also making do, and when she comes, you will go home for dinner later." ”

Qiu Mingde shook his head and said: "Secretary, I just arrived, and I felt that the water here is very deep, no, not long after the luggage was put down, my old classmates came to the door, Hou Wenguang, director of the Municipal Bureau, asked me to have dinner tonight, and the other person is Kan Yunshan, Hou Wenguang also told me a lot of things in the city, it seems that you come here, and the difficulty is not small." ”

"You are right, the situation is very bad, Kan Zhengde is coming back, the city has assured him that there is no responsibility for the affairs of Wuyang County, and he will complete all the projects of Guilu Group within two years, and no new land will be taken within two years, and the city is also forced to do so."

Qiu Mingde just listened, he didn't ask anything about the city, it was not his scope, so just listen to it, if he suggested it, he would have exceeded his authority.

Qiu Mingde understands his own proportions very well, not only that, except for Hou Wenguang who reported that he was looking for dinner, he went to the provincial capital to see Wei Yangbing, and the words he was admonished in Wei Yangbing's office, he did not report to Man Zhengwu.

It's true that Man Zhengwu is his relative, but it is only a distant cousin on the door of his wife's mother's house, and the relationship is not so close, just because of Man Zhengwu's position, he was forced by the pressure of promotion at that time, and he looked for him once, Man Zhengwu said that he had found the relevant leader to speak for himself, and he didn't know if it was true or not.

Once he reported to Man Zhengwu what happened in the office of Wei Yangbing in the provincial capital, then his work in Nangang City would be greatly hindered.

Because Man Zhengwu knew and didn't know that he was warned by Wei Yangbing, his attitude towards himself was absolutely different.
