Li Xin saw it right. That person was Zhou Wen, the new mayor elected by the Omi People's Congress two months ago. In fact, Zhou Wen himself did not expect that he would be directly transferred from the position of mayor of Jiangbei to the provincial capital to serve as mayor.
It stands to reason that he should take over as Secretary of the Jiangbei Municipal Party Committee. This is also an indispensable step for personal development. Without experience in governing, an official career will be imperfect.
Let's take care of things as they come. Zhou Wen has been in office for a while and has not made any big moves yet. He is watching and waiting, because Omi has been run like an iron bucket by Liu Fei. A needle cannot be inserted and water cannot be poured in. He himself
As an outsider, there is basically no other way to go except to carry out work according to the established guidelines of the municipal party committee secretary.
Zhou Wen only brought one person from Jiangbei, his secretary Xu Ning. He considered that Xiao Xu was still young and had a low starting point when he was released. He could only be a section chief or something, so he might as well stay with him. As for the driver,
He accepted the arrangement of the municipal government office and transferred someone from the small bus class to use it, but it was only for official travel. He drove or rode a bicycle to and from work.
Omi already has a pushy mayor. No matter how Zhou Wen puts on a show, he can't show off as much as Liu Fei. He can only keep a low profile and work step by step. Every day after work hours, he takes Xu Ning out to observe the public sentiment.
Huahuo Subdistrict is the urban-rural fringe of Yunshan District. It is densely populated and has migrant populations. It has the largest urban village in Omi. It is a mixed bag of people, harboring filth and people's practices, and there are many security cases. It has always been the most troublesome area in the city. How to rectify this place?
Zhou Wen's first move in governing Omi was as he walked and discussed the issue with Xu Ning in a low voice when he suddenly saw the sign of a roadside barbecue stall: Jiangbei BBQ.
"Xiao Xu, let's have some barbecue." Mayor Zhou said with great interest.
Zhou Wen is different from Liu Fei. He came from a poor background. When he was almost thirty years old, he was still a clerk in the office. He was not particular about food and clothing. The words "Jiangbei Barbecue" reminded him of his hometown. At the same time, he also wanted to get closer to the masses and observe.
Let’s see how ordinary people live.
Xu Ning looked embarrassed. He was worried that the barbecue was unhygienic. If the food ruined the mayor's stomach, he could not bear the responsibility.
"You're not clean, I'm not sick after eating, it's fine." Zhou Wen walked towards the barbecue stall, and Xu Ning had no choice but to follow.
"You two, there are no seats inside, please sit outside to cool down." The waiter at the barbecue stall spoke with a Jiangbei accent. He placed them outside the stall, next to the sidewalk, handed over the greasy and dirty menu and went to greet others.
Li Xin saw "Mayor Zhou" walking into the barbecue stall, and couldn't help but doubt his eyesight. Did he see it wrong? How could the dignified mayor eat from a roadside stall? Not to mention the mayor, he was the director, the director.
It is impossible for Changdu to lower his status and eat in a place like this. In fact, he has no interaction with Mayor Zhou. He just glanced at it from a distance in the company. Since it is not Mayor Zhou, he does not take it seriously and continues to search.
Liu Handong.
Liu Handong and his friends were having a barbecue in Jiangbei. The mutton at this stall was relatively authentic. They arrived late and there were no seats, so they had to sit outside. Several tables were pushed together in the greenhouse, and they were piled high with beer and various barbecue skewers.
Barbecue is a low-end meal, but the price is not cheap at all. This meal costs at least a thousand yuan.
Li Xin saw Liu Handong, and the advertising company manager also saw She Xiaoqing. They both put on their most friendly smiles and walked over, taking things out of their bags as they walked. Li Xin took out cigarettes, and the manager took out his business card.
Liu Handong also discovered Li Xin and was a little puzzled by his arrogant attitude, but he quickly realized that this guy must have something up his sleeve.
"Old classmate, we have flooded the Dragon King Temple. We are all from our own family." Li Xin did not regard himself as an outsider. He sat down next to Liu Handong, making smoke everywhere, and introduced himself to everyone: "I am Liu Handong.
High school classmate.”
Liu Handong didn't give him any face, and kicked Li Xin on the horse. Li Xin fell to the ground.
"Damn it, stop trying to get close to me." Liu Handong also introduced to everyone: "This guy is just a kid."
Li Xin had no temper at all. He got up from the ground with a playful smile and said, "Dadong, don't blame me for this. It's Mr. Yan's fault. Didn't I come to apologize to you? And last time, I drank too much."
It’s my fault for drinking and talking nonsense in front of you, so what, boss!”
The boss heard the sound and came over: "What do you want?"
"Is there any liquor? Bring me a bottle." Li Xin patted the ashes on his body and stood in front of Liu Handong.
"Why, you don't accept it." Kan Wanlin suddenly stood up and picked up the empty wine bottle. Xiao Cui and Huo Lei were not around, so he was Dong Ge's leader.
"Wan Lin, calm down." Liu Handong said.
The boss brought a bottle of low-quality liquor. He didn't know which small factory produced it. The alcohol content was not high, 42 degrees.
Li Xin unscrewed the bottle cap, raised his neck to his mouth, and drained a 500 ml bottle of liquor in a beer-drinking manner. This action attracted the attention of many people. When he finished drinking,
Applause and whistles broke out.
"I apologized with wine." Li Xin drank the liquor, wiped his mouth, and suppressed the turmoil in his stomach. His face was full of heroism. He had a good capacity for drinking, but he still couldn't stand it after drinking the whole bottle at one time. There was no food in his stomach and it was irritating.
of discomfort.
Everyone looked at Liu Handong, waiting for him to resolve the matter.
Wang Yaming happened to arrive in a hurry. He walked over while making a phone call. Li Xin's cell phone kept ringing, attracting his attention. "It's here. I almost can't find it. How can I eat barbecue?" Wang Yaming walked over and almost couldn't find it.
Knocking over another customer's beer bottle, he quickly apologized: "I'm sorry."
"It's okay." Xu Ning said.
Wang Yaming took a look and saw that the man looked like Mayor Zhou, but he couldn't be sure. He had only seen him from a distance during the conference. Omi TV published various news about Secretary Liu every day, and the front page of the newspaper was also occupied by Secretary Liu.
, Mayor Zhou has basically no reports, and it is normal for grassroots cadres to be unfamiliar with him.
He hurried past, and Xu Ning lowered his voice and said: "Omi people drink so much, Mayor Zhou looks like Liu Handong."
Zhou Wendao: "It's interesting, take your time and read it."
Wang Yaming walked to the table and heard Liu Handong say: "Okay, I don't see that Li Xin, you are also a man, able to bend and stretch. I forgive you, sit down."
Li Xin pulled a mazza and sat down. Kan Wanlin handed over a few skewers: "Eat some, drink it down, drink too much."
"It's okay." Li Xin was still trying to be a hero. He vomited before he finished speaking. He vomited all the white wine he had just drank, and there was bright red blood. This was because he had suffered stomach bleeding.
Liu Handong said: "Don't be stunned, hurry up and send him to the hospital."
The manager of the advertising company was panicked. Li Xin was the client and didn't care when he would be waiting. He hurriedly helped Li Xin up. Here Kan Wanlin stepped in and arranged a car to take Li Xin to medical treatment. Wang Yaming originally wanted to go with him.
However, Li Xin stopped him and asked him to accompany Liu Handong for him.
After Liu Handong trained with T Troop at the base for a period of time, he developed a habit of keeping an eye on all directions and listening in all directions. No matter where he went, he first looked at the people and then the terrain, leaving a way out and not exposing his back to
Zhou Wen saw the others as soon as he came in, but was disturbed by Li Xin and failed to recognize them. Now that Li Xin was sent to the hospital, he came over with beer.
"I was recognized." Xu Ning whispered.
"It's okay." Zhou Wen said with a smile. He had read Liu Handong's file and knew that he was related to Liu Ziguang. Moreover, Baina often said good things about him, so she had a good impression of him. A few years ago, she even wanted to take him in as her own.
The driver.
"Boss Zhou, I didn't expect to meet you here. Let me propose a toast." Liu Handong knew very well and did not mention Zhou Wen's true identity.
Zhou Wen chuckled: "Hello, Xiao Liu, sit down and let's chat."
Liu Handong said: "If you don't mind, come sit over with us."
Zhou Wen was very happy: "That's fine."
The two of them went over and sat down, and Wang Yaming's heart began to beat wildly. The aura of a superior person cannot be hidden. Ordinary people may not be able to see it, but as a person in the officialdom, he is too sensitive to this aura.
, he was almost certain that this was Mayor Zhou.
"You are Mayor Zhou!" Before Wang Yaming could speak, She Xiaoqing spoke first. When she followed An Xin to Jiangbei Nantai Industrial Park for inspection last year, she met Zhou Wen and was very impressed.
Everyone was stunned and looked at the two friends carefully. The man whom She Xiaoqing called the mayor was only in his thirties. He wore glasses and was polite. He looked very ordinary and wore ordinary clothes. He had no brand-name goods.
The overall look is one that is difficult to find if lost in the crowd. Omi people are used to the handsome and elegant Mayor Liu of Yushu, so it is hard to accept the unfashionable mayor for a while.
Zhou Wen smiled and nodded: "Hello, Assistant She, long time no see."
She Xiaoqing's eyes shone: "Oh, Mayor Zhou, you still remember me."
Wang Yaming became excited. As a department-level cadre, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to have dinner at the same table as the mayor. He suddenly understood why Li Xin risked his life to accompany the gentleman and would rather suffer stomach bleeding than to curry favor with Liu Handong. This guy is not showing off.
It’s so dewy, I’m hugging my thick legs.
"Hello, Mayor Zhou, I am Wang Yaming from Yutan Town." Mayor Wang stretched out his hand with a trembling voice.
Zhou Wen's hands were stained with oil. He quickly wiped them with a tissue and shook hands with Wang Yaming: "Hello, Mayor Wang."
Wang Yaming was so moved that he almost cried: "Mayor Zhou, do you know me?"
Zhou Wen didn't know Wang Yaming. He just had a good knowledge and a strong memory. He had an impression of the names of the top leaders in every county, every bureau, every district, and even every township below. Speaking at this time was a hundred times more effective. Wang Yaming was so impressed that he admired him.
Decided to become a fan of Mayor Zhou.
Everyone was talking about it and took out their mobile phones to take a photo with Zhou Wen. The owner of the barbecue stall came and was extremely excited after hearing the news: "How come you look familiar? It's our Mayor Zhou from Jiangbei. I'll treat you to this meal."
Got it!"
The people in Omi were not impressed by Zhou Wen, but the people in Jiangbei were different. The people in Jiangbei loved Zhou Wen, just like the people in Omi loved Liu Fei.
Zhou Wen smiled and said: "Don't worry, come one by one. Boss, you can treat me, but I will pay the bill."
Liu Handong said: "Don't argue. The bill is small. We have to cooperate with Mayor Zhou to do the research. So, Mayor Zhou, if you have any questions, just ask them. I guarantee they won't fool you."
Zhou Wen said: "I really have a few questions to ask everyone. Do you live in Huahuo Village or Tiezha Street?"
