It was already a month later when Lu Zheng returned to southern Yunnan from Beijing.

When he returned to Nanzhou, Lu Zheng's new identity was the leader of the Lanjiang Regional Working Group of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Affairs Office in Nanzhou.

I met Wei Xiangxiu in Nanzhou, and Lu Zheng rushed to Lanjiang to take office.

The Lanjiang region has a pleasant climate all year round, and now it is the time for hibiscus flowers to bloom.

Sitting in the van heading to Lanjiang, as the car bumped, Lu Zheng looked at the ethnic villages that gradually appeared outside the car window. From a distance, the primeval forests covering the sky and the sun were faintly visible, the winding peaks and the beautiful streams and lakes.

From a distance, Lanjiang is like a paradise. It is also known as the hometown of Dianhong. It produces black tea and is known as the Dianhong, which can make black tea in the world inferior.

However, Lu Zheng knew that the hardships of the people here actually formed a sharp contrast with this pleasant scenery.

There are multiple ethnic autonomous counties in the Lanjiang region, which gather multiple ethnic minorities. It is also called the Wa hometown. The Wa population accounts for more than two-thirds of the total Wa population in the country.

Lu Zheng’s destination is Nanpo Wa Autonomous County, Lanjiang Region.

Nanpo County is on the border line. The north of the boundary marker is the southern slope of China. The south of the boundary marker is the capital of Guobang Autonomous Region. It forms a unique landscape with the boundary marker in the county town and the gates in the city, and one city and two countries.

Yonghe Town, Nanpo County, has a port for trading with Wa State, another ethnic autonomous region of Myanmar.

Wa State and Guobang were both under the leadership of the Communist Party of Burma before, and now they also have the support of the Republic in commerce. Wa State, like Guobang, has the official text in Chinese and the official language in Chinese. In the northern region, the Republic's border telecommunications network is used.

There are several ports in Nanpo County, which are the most important border trade towns that communicate with Guobang and Wa states.

The newly established Lanjiang Regional Working Group of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Affairs Office in Nanzhou will be located in Nanpo County, which is one city and two countries.

In addition to the driver and Du Xiaohu, the staff who took the same van with Lu Zheng also had two Yumen, Wang Jiabin, director of the working group office, and Zhang Jun, director of the Trade Management Department.

The working group is in the special office of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Affairs in Nanzhou, with three organizations: the office, the Trade Management Office and the Research Office.

But in fact, don’t look at the department under the working group. The department is responsible for the work group. It seems that the brand is very large, but in fact there are only nine executives in the work group. Except for Wang Jiabin and Zhang Jun, the other seven people took a bus to Nanpo, because the van Lu Zheng and others were the only vehicle allocated for the working group. Nanzhou’s special service was only three cars.

"Secretary, Chu Zhang, smoke?" Guest Wang took out a bag of Hongtashan.

Zhang Jun is in his thirties. If he is at this age, he will be very worried about getting to the right place, but he will be so smooth.

Beijing officials are arrogant in the local area, and Zhang Jun is the same. Even if he meets municipal leaders in southern Yunnan, he will occasionally be arrogant. As for department-level officials who are on par with him, he doesn't even care about them.

However, Beijing officials also follow the rules of killing people at the top of the senior level. Although Lu Zheng's organizational relationship has not yet been settled, it seems that he is just a seconded leader, but he can easily transfer his old subordinate to the ministry and commission and be transferred one by one. Who dares to underestimate this team leader?

What's more, Zhang Jun inquired about Lu Zheng's past experience in detail. That kind of prominent experience is unimaginable to his department like him. Nowadays, although they are difficult to lie down, they may not soar to the sky one day. The leaders of the department seem to be in a difficult situation whether they use this person or not, but they are not comparable to those of the ministries like him.

Therefore, Zhang Jun was careful about this young new boss.

Listening to the former title of Director Wang, who was under Team Leader Lu, respectfully called Team Leader Lu as "Secretary", Zhang Jun could imagine the power of Team Leader Lu in the past, especially that place was called Wushan.

After receiving the Hongta Mountain handed over by Director Wang, Zhang Jun felt even more moved. It was worthy of being transferred from Wushan, with wealth and wealth. He only smoked a few packs of this kind of cigarette during the years.

The average income of Wushan residents is increasing year by year. In addition, the implementation of the civil servant policy for the Special Administrative Region, and the full liberalization of prices, housing system reform, etc., has a lot of allowances. Therefore, the salary of Wushan Yumen is much higher than that of Beijing officials, and the consumption concept is completely different.

Lu Zheng was stunned when he looked at the cigarette handed over by Guest Wang. Guest Wang basically didn't smoke before, but now he looked at his fingers yellow. Obviously, he smoked frequently during this period.

My old subordinate, in Wushan, was the most suppressed guest. Because he had been writing letters to the provincial party committee to appeal to the central government for him, and counting his achievements over the years, he probably was not popular at all. Later, because he made a speech of "wrong political direction" at work, he was criticized and dismissed by Huo Qinqun and was criticized and dismissed.

In Wushan, Guest Wang gradually became the Yu Min outside his core circle. For example, Liu Tie, Zhang Qingtian and others were the people in his core circle. However, under his strict orders, they could only accept the reality of leaving Wushan. On the contrary, Guest Wang, who did not give in, became the first victim after his downfall.

This is what people's hearts are like over time. In my impression, Guest Wang has always been the kind of Yu Department who is suitable for intermediary. He has been transferred to the grassroots level for several years and seems to have not made any progress, but he doesn't expect that at the critical moment, it is impressive.

Since he left Wushan, he must have been very depressed, so he became a habit of smoking.

He leaned over and lit a cigarette in front of the lighter handed over by Guest Wang. Lu Zheng took a deep breath, was silent for a while, and said, "Guest, in southern Yunnan, it is our new beginning. Let's call him over. The sky cannot be broken, do you understand?"

Guest Wang nodded silently.

Zhang Jun pretended to be careless and looked at the scenery outside the window, but obviously, Team Leader Lu didn't mind hearing him say these words. Team Leader Lu's behavior could feel completely different from the ministries and commissions. It had a sense of a sense of a real leader, the aura that once dominated the party.

Lu Zheng slowly sucked the cigarette and patted Wang Jiawen on the shoulder.

In fact, Lu Zheng is not within the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Affairs, and his relationship is not allowed to be transferred.

Lu Zheng clearly understood what happened here.

Because foreign aid work is directly led by the Party Central Committee and the State Council, Minister Qiu naturally cannot make the decision on his own use. Originally, he sent a report to the General Office of the Central Committee to serve as the deputy commissioner of the Nanzhou Special Office and the head of the Lanjiang Regional Working Group. However, this report quickly caused criticism at the upper level, and some elderly people clearly expressed their opposition.

In fact, it has been four months since I was dismissed. I am not my father Lu Tianhe, and I do not have the political influence of him. I am just a deputy department-level Yu Department. In fact, Yu Department of this level is not in the central system and cannot involve real line struggles. Most of them are just a case of standing in the wrong team and stepping down. Although my situation is not that simple, the storm has gradually passed. There are foreign aid work in remote areas, which is similar to the position of a position that was exiled to the army, and the recommendation of the minister at that time. It seems that there is no big problem to be appointed.

But, it seems that some old people are eyeing themselves.

Of course, there are also people who protect themselves. For example, Mr. Pei, who once wrote words for himself, said a few words to him at this time.

Finally, it was my grandfather who gave a preface to his current position. He had always rarely participated in these things and said that his grandson was just a political childish disease. It was great to go to southern Yunnan. Can he ask him to do it? Now we are normalizing relations with the recipient countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America and the Communist Party, and we have to cut off the aid we have been giving them. At this time, it is difficult to do work, and there must be a gradual process. My grandson has a lot of dealing with outsiders, so we can ask him to explore experiences.

Obviously, my grandfather, who never participated in party disputes, was still very important. He just said that he "looked" first, and was seconded to the Yunnan Special Office of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economics and Trade.

I heard that my grandfather was very angry in private and said that my grandson was just a child and had a small job transfer. Do you XXX ask about it personally?

And grandpa, in this small storm, said nothing, just plant flowers and grass every day, without caring about the world

As for me, I later asked Duan Zhongyuan the office director to choose. After all, the office needs to handle specific matters of helping others, and I have to use someone who can be assured and convenient as possible.

I don’t know how Duan Zhongyuan told Minister Qiu, but in short, Wang was finally transferred to the position of director of the working group office. This position was at the level of a director, so Wang naturally promoted it from the deputy to the main position.

Du Xiaohu also made his own request, because the work in a new position may enter the Myanmar area, which is dangerous and requires security personnel. He recommended Du Xiaohu as an internal guard on the grounds that it is not convenient to rely solely on local armed police and border defense forces. He said that Du Xiaohu was an old subordinate on his battlefield and had been in the public security system. He resigned a few years ago and went to the south. Now he wants to restore public office.

Perhaps because he was left in the end, Minister Qiu felt that he could not get out of office. Because both of his requests were finally approved, it should be that Minister Qiu came out. After Du Xiaohu took an exam, he became a special agent with a gun license.

Thinking of these things, Lu Zheng looked at Du Xiaohu with a thrilling look. Perhaps this is his fate with Hu Zi.

I just hope that from now on, Hu Zi will not be hurt by protecting himself anymore.

I also hope that Hu Zi can have a wonderful marriage in this life.

When night fell, the van slowly drove into Nanpo County.

Lu Zheng habitually looked at his watch.

Departing from Nanzhou at 5 a.m. It is now around 7 p.m., and I walked thirteen or fourteen hours along the way.

Nanpo County is full of exotic style, with steeply-topped thatched wooden houses and buildings everywhere. Several main roads are facing the streets, and the scattered high and low buildings slightly bring a touch of modernity. In the distance, there is a silver-gray three-story building with the most grandeur, and there is Nanpo Customs.

More than 90% of the permanent population of Nanpo Wa Autonomous County is ethnic minority. With the development of border trade activities, the number of talents in the mainland has increased day by day.

The county town is very small, with only a few main streets, and the working group's station is easy to find. A courtyard not far from the county government has two-story buildings and warehouses. It used to be the courtyard of Nanpo County Handicraft Federation. Later, the Nanpo Handicraft Federation was abolished and merged into the county Industrial Bureau. The yard is idle. Now it has been found by the Nanpo County Government to be the working group station, and the rent is only symbolically charged.

When the van entered the courtyard, Lao Xiao, the chief clerk of the office who was shooting outposts, walked out quickly to greet him. There were still seven or eight men and women who looked like Yu, who should be local leaders of Nanpo County.

Sure enough, after Lu Zheng got off the car, Lao Xiao introduced to Lu Zheng one by one, that Secretary Zheng of Nanpo County Party Committee and County Mayor Zhao both came.

Although County Magistrate Zhao is a Wa people, he does not have a trace of ethnic minority atmosphere. In fact, he is not just County Magistrate Zhao. Whether it is the Wa people, Dai people, Lahu people, and many people, especially the younger generation, have no difference from mainland people in terms of psychological or cultural identity.

Secretary Zheng smiled and said to Lu Zheng that the work meal was arranged, and when you come to Wa Township, you can try Wa mountain dishes.

Lu Zheng nodded and said yes.

So, Secretary Zheng and County Mayor Zhao accompanied Lu Zheng, Wang Jiabin and Zhang Jun in front, and the rest followed behind, hiking in a long line to the nearby county party committee compound. Secretary Zheng had already ordered the canteen to be prepared, and at the order, the fire was immediately opened.

In fact, except for the roasted snake meat and chicken porridge, the other plates of fried rice are still the taste of Yunnan cuisine and Sichuan cuisine, and the Wa dishes are just saying this. Moreover, Secretary Zheng is also worried that Lu Zheng is jealous of food.

At the table, Lu Zheng didn't talk much, but asked Secretary Zheng and County Magistrate Zhao about the situation on Nanpo and Guobang South Street opposite. The dinner ended soon, but Zhang Jun kept frowning. It was obvious that the food was not in line with his appetite. It was already a chore to be sent from Beijing to southern Yunnan. Now he is going to come to a remote place like Nanpo. I don't know when I will be able to rotate back to Beijing. Thinking about it, I can't help feeling depressed.

Lao Xiao, the chief clerk of the office, is a local from southern Yunnan. He was transferred from the Department of Foreign Trade and Economic Affairs of Southern Yunnan Province. He was in a completely different mood from Zhang Jun. Although the conditions here are difficult, after a few years of transfer back to the provincial capital, it is also a kind of capital. For an old comrade who has been stuck in the department for more than ten years, it may be a good opportunity.

But this team leader Lu doesn’t know what his temper is. If he asks to go out to the village to run for materials every day, then he will be miserable from now on.

Zhang Jun and Lao Xiao's performances were all in Lu Zheng's eyes, and Lu Zheng was also thinking about the people in the working group.

The administrative staffing of the working group, including the office staffing, the Trade Management Department’s Staffing, the Research Department’s Staffing,

There is one office director, and one of the other two is the chief clerk Lao Xiao and the other is the chief clerk Xie and the other is the chief clerk.

There is one director of the Trade Administration Department, one deputy director, one computer certificate licensor, one certificate licensor, Xiao Gao, and Da Zhou, one is the chief clerk, and the other is the deputy chief clerk.

There is one director of the Research Office and one deputy researcher.

In other words, although he has only 9 people under his command, he has three people at the department level, two people at the department level, three people at the department level, and one person at the department level, and one person at the department level. The power allocation of the department is really worthy of being the gate of the department's office.
