In Jianyi, the officials coming and going from the county government all looked complicated and entangled.
Looking at the nine dishes and one soup placed in front of me, three vegetarian and six meat dishes, there is also a soup.
Stir-fried Chinese cabbage, cold yuba, stir-fried lotus root, braised grass carp, fish head with chopped pepper, boiled fish, stir-fried pork slices with pepper, soy sauce pork, steamed egg, and a seaweed and shrimp skin soup.
For ordinary people, this may be a meal that can only be eaten during the New Year and holidays.
But for them, the county government officials, these dishes are really home-cooked dishes, and they can only be eaten for one or two bites. However, at this moment, the inspectors are being entertained. Still according to such standards, it makes people feel uncomfortable.
I have a bit of a headache.
However, Rui Hai in front of them looked at the nine dishes and one soup in front of him, his face still a little tangled, and his words were filled with heartache.
"This is a bit of a luxury."
The faces of a group of officials became increasingly weird. They felt both admiration and helplessness for a person like Rui Hai.
At this moment, they are able to work under Rui Hai and live well, which shows that they have still adhered to their ideals over the years and have not used power for personal gain.
The environment is harsh, but they still strive to be innocent. Although they are unable to change the overall situation, they are still worthy of their own hearts in their own one-third of an acre of land.
Before, they were basically marginalized.
Now that I'm back on the main stage, it's impossible to say I'm not excited. I also admire Ruihai's conduct as a person. But if they don't know how to be an official, it's impossible to be an official in the county government. Most of them are
Human spirit.
After being marginalized for so many years, the various situations in the officialdom can be seen more clearly with a cold eye.
They didn't want Ruihai to join the others, but they felt that it was a bit too idealistic to entertain an inspector who was in control of his own promotion, especially one who was known for his pleasure-loving reputation, and still only entertained him with such simple meals.
.
Rui Hai was concerned about the matter and not the person, but it was unclear what the supervisor would think.
From the bottom of their hearts, they also hope that Ruihai can go further.
They can't do an idealized person like Rui Hai, but that doesn't mean they don't admire such a person. They also hope Rui Hai can go further.
But even if they talked hard, they couldn't change Rui Hai's firm mind. Even the nine dishes and one soup had been made after consultation.
"It's not exactly a luxury."
Seeing that Ruihai still looked heartbroken, Zhang Mingtu took a step forward and explained each of the nine dishes and one soup.
"Grass carp can be found everywhere along the river. One fish usually only costs three to six cents, which is not considered a luxury."
"The fish head is made from silver carp and bighead carp from the river. In the past, many fishermen were reluctant to catch this fish because of its poor meat quality and low price. It is because Fulai Restaurant created this special fish head with chopped pepper. This fish
The price has only increased by two cents.
But often only the fish head and body are sold at a very cheap price, basically half for sale and half for free..."
Ruihai's heartache was really not a lie. He had really done research around Jianyi and knew that life in Jianyi might be okay, but many people around Jianyi were really busy every day, just seeking food and clothing.
He really felt guilty for receiving the inspector with nine dishes and one soup.
Moreover, Rui Hai’s usual meals at home cannot meet such standards.
It's funny to say that Rui Hai has the highest position among the people present, but in terms of daily diet, Rui Hai is probably the simplest and closest to ordinary city residents among the people present.
Of course, compared with many people outside the city who aim to have enough food every day, Ruihai's situation is still much better. After all, he is the head of a county. If the head of a county can't have enough to eat, it would be a big joke.
.
"I know the ingredients are not expensive, but the craftsmanship, alas!"
Rui Hai sighed softly. The cooks and related people who were originally responsible for reception in the county government were dismissed. It was not that they were corrupt, they were not that capable of corruption.
The main reason is that Ruihai can't afford it. It turns out that the person in charge of entertaining at the county government is a first-class and generous person. The corresponding number of people purchasing is very large, and the ingredients are even more luxurious.
All kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas are extremely luxurious.
There is a lot of venison, deer blood, velvet antlers, bear paws, ginseng, etc. that are specially transported frozen from the north.
There are also seafood specially transported with runes to keep fresh from the southern coast, including razor clams longer than a palm, plump and plump oysters, scallops, ordinary people on the beach, and rare blue melon seeds.
After Rui Hai came, they were all chopped off.
Now this dish was ordered from Fulai Restaurant. The price was not very expensive, but Rui Hai still felt a little heartbroken.
When he is not working, Rui Hai is just like an ordinary stingy farmer in the countryside.
"The inspector is here, coming over!"
The officials from the county government came over to report, and the faces of the group of people became even weirder.
"Are you really not going to pick it up?"
Many officials present were a little unable to sit still.
In the past, the standard of reception was not just to go and pick him up. When the inspection envoy was coming, many people had to be arranged to go to the dock to receive him.
Not only will the road be cleaned, but the gongs and drums will also be played loudly, and a special band will come over.
At the same time, all the idle people on the road must be driven away, and various related procedures must be arranged in advance, which is very trivial.
People who can complete relevant tasks can be looked upon highly by others.
Where can I find someone like Rui Hai?
He treated him calmly in the face of the supervisor who held the power of his promotion.
Rui Hai saw all the situations below and couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Everyone, I don't know about the reception procedures in the past, but when I received Daxia's salary and became an official, I had already sworn to put Daxia as the most important thing and the people as the most important thing. Now, how many times have we done in the past?
Do people remember?”
"What we really need to do is have a clear conscience. What we really want to show the inspector is our daily status, instead of spending a lot of money to please the inspector and forget our true intentions."
"well!"
A group of people present sighed inwardly, but their faces were still friendly, but the whole atmosphere was a bit dull.
They all understand what Rui Hai said. There is no one here who has not read the great principles in the book many times, but the principles are principles and the reality is reality.
The inspectors were treated grandly in all places, but you were the only one who gave the inspector's office a simple meal. In the eyes of the inspector, you were treating him coldly and coldly.
You are born with a problem with him. Do you really think that the supervisor will be shocked and praise you as an upright and upright official?
"well!"
I sighed in my heart, but there was nothing I could do.
And junior officials came to report more and more frequently.
"Already at the door."
Everyone present was shocked and stood up one after another. Ruihai also went to greet him. This was not flattery, but normal etiquette.
A group of people saw the inspector's serious face from a distance, and many people's hearts sank.
When he saw Rui Hai, the inspector didn't have much of a smile on his face and glanced left and right.
"The scenery of Jianyi is very different from the past!"
"It's over!"
The group of people following Rui Hai felt a chill in their hearts.
Speaking such words has already shown the dissatisfaction in the inspector's heart, and they feel that the situation will be worse next.
"Oh, I don't know how difficult it will be when I see the nine dishes and one soup!"
