Suddenly, the entire breakfast stall became lively. People gathered around Liu Qingyu, shook hands with Liu Qingyu, and took photos to express their deep gratitude to Liu Qingyu. One of them was in his 70s with gray hair. The old lady directly held Liu Qingyu's hand tightly with both hands and said: "Secretary Liu, this is the first time in my life that I have seen someone like you who dares to fight against corrupt elements. Take down You have eliminated Sun Yulong and his gang of corrupt officials, and you have solved a lot of problems for us people. We, the people of Dongjiang City, will all be grateful to you."
Liu Qingyu said quickly: "Madam, this is what I should do. Who made me the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission?"
At this time, a 30-year-old office worker next to him said loudly: "Secretary Liu, you have had several disciplinary committee secretaries before you, but none of them can carry out anti-corruption as boldly as you. Secretary Liu, you are our big boss in Dongjiang City." A savior."
The north wind howled, and heavy snow began to drift in the sky.
However, more and more people gathered at the breakfast stall. Especially when everyone heard that Liu Qingyu was leaving Dongjiang City, many people gathered around. The news that Liu Qingyu was leaving seemed to be a long-term news. Like wings, it spread in the streets and alleys of Dongjiang City.
In less than ten minutes, the streets around Liu Qingyu were already filled with people from Dongjiang City.
The goose-feather heavy snow was blowing unscrupulously on people's faces, but whether they were old men and women in their sixties or seventies, or children in their teens, everyone looked at Liu with eyes full of respect and gratitude. In the direction of Qingyu, although Liu Qingyu had already been surrounded by layers of people, everyone's eyes were still looking in the direction of Liu Qingyu.
Snow flakes fell on people's faces and necks, and people showed no intention of avoiding it. The hot gratitude in their eyes had already melted the snow flakes and the cold wind.
Seeing that he was surrounded by people, Liu Qingyu knew that he had to leave quickly because the wind and snow were heavy and the weather was too cold, and the people would freeze if he waited.
Thinking of this, Liu Qingyu clasped his fists at the people around him and said with a moved face: "Grandpas, aunts, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, thank you very much for your concern for me, Liu Qingyu. I am here to thank you all. Can you please Everyone, please help to clear a path. I have to leave quickly. If I don’t leave, the friends in front of me will still have to wait in the cold wind.”
After hearing Liu Qingyu's words, everyone immediately took action. Soon, the common people spontaneously reminded each other and pulled to clear a straight passage for Qin Ruijie's car.
At this moment, Zheng Bofang, Tang Shaogang and others, who had received the news that Liu Qingyu had left early, were standing on the periphery of the crowd. They couldn't rush in even if they wanted to, so they could only wave goodbye to Liu Qingyu desperately.
Qin Ruijie and Liu Qingyu got into the car, started the car, and drove forward slowly.
At this time, the common people at the breakfast stall suddenly waved the 10-yuan note given by Liu Qingyu in their hands and waved their arms loudly and vigorously: "Secretary Liu, your meal money is still here. I can't charge you for your meal. He is our great savior in Dongjiang City."
As he spoke, the boss moved the crowd and tried to rush over, but he couldn't move forward.
At this time, a middle-aged man in his 40s said to the common people: "Boss, please put it away. When Secretary Liu was an official in our Dongjiang City, he never took bribes from anyone and never asked for anything from us common people." The good thing is that he is about to leave, so you can’t let him lose his reputation.”
The breakfast stall owner smiled bitterly and stopped: "Yes, Secretary Liu is really a rare and good official. If the officials in Dongjiang City could be like Secretary Liu, our business would be much easier. Unfortunately, Ah, no matter what month, there will be people coming here to collect fees for various purposes. Although the big corrupt officials have been dealt with, those little devils are still very difficult to deal with."
The middle-aged man immediately showed a displeased look on his face and said: "I say boss, just be satisfied. Since Secretary Liu arrived, haven't those brats become much more restrained than before? In the past, you were not allowed to get seven or eight Go and take care of them, now under Secretary Liu's shock, they only dare to ask you for two or three hundred a month at most."
The breakfast stall owner nodded vigorously: "Yes, when Secretary Liu was here, we people got real benefits, but I don't know if Secretary Liu is gone, will we have to continue to endure those things like before?" The harassment and barbaric demands of cats and dogs.”
The middle-aged man smiled bitterly: "Who knows."
Although the two were chatting, their eyes were fixed on the direction Liu Qingyu was leaving, their eyes full of gratitude and nostalgia.
With snowflakes falling all over the sky, Liu Qingyu left Dongjiang City in a car.
The people of Dongjiang City formed a long queue along both sides of the street, waving goodbye to Liu Qingyu with tears in their eyes. Along the way, Liu Qingyu had already opened the car window and kept looking at the people around him. The common people waved.
While driving, Qin Ruijie sighed and said: "Liu Qingyu, if every official in China can be like you and gain such respect and reluctance from the people before leaving, we will be able to realize the Chinese dream." In front of me."
Liu Qingyu smiled bitterly and said: "Ruijie, to be honest, I think I just became a member of the Communist Party and what an official should do. In his position and to pursue his political goals, as long as he is an official Those who can realize this, as long as they can truly pretend to be ordinary people and their own work in their hearts, then almost 50% of officials can reach my level. The most important thing is whether officials can let go of all the desires in their hearts and surrender. Set your mind to do something."
Speaking of this, Liu Qingyu only let out a long sigh...
As the car drove away from the urban area of Dongjiang City, the snowflakes gradually became lighter, and the people seeing off the car behind gradually moved away and disappeared.
Since it had just snowed, there was only a thin layer of snowflakes on the road. The snow was relatively light on the side near the highway, so the highway was not closed yet. Liu Qingyu and the others drove onto the highway and rushed towards the provincial capital Liaoyuan City. Liu Qingyu felt that since he had been dismissed and had no arrangements now, he might as well go back to his hometown in Yanjing City, stay with his parents and grandparents, and fulfill his filial piety.
At this moment, Liu Qingyu's cell phone rang.
It's Zeng Hongtao calling.
Liu Qingyu was still a little dissatisfied with Zeng Hongtao, so he did not answer the phone immediately.
After the phone rang a few times, Liu Qingyu estimated that the other party would not call him again.
However, just as the phone rang, it rang again soon.
Qin Ruijie glanced at Liu Qingyu's cell phone with the corner of her eye and found that it was Zeng Hongtao's call. Qin Ruijie immediately urged anxiously: "Liu Qingyu, this is Secretary Zeng's call. Answer it quickly."
Liu Qingyu said with a hint of resentment: "What's wrong with Secretary Zeng? He's just crossing the river and burning the bridge."
Despite what he said, Liu Qingyu still answered the phone after it rang a few times.
"Liu Qingyu, please come to the Provincial Party Committee immediately. I have important matters to discuss with you. I'm waiting for you at the Provincial Party Committee." Zeng Hongtao's very serious voice came from the other end of the phone.
Liu Qingyu said with a hint of exhaustion: "Secretary Zeng, I'm a little tired. I don't have much work right now. I want to take a good rest."
"Rest, I think you should stop thinking about it. I have a secretary of the county party committee here who needs your help. Come over quickly. This matter is very urgent now. The people of Ruiyuan County, Nanhua City are all looking at you. I have been looking forward to it for a long time. I need to interview you on behalf of the Provincial Party Committee to see if you are qualified for the position of Secretary of the County Party Committee." After saying that, Zeng Hongtao hung up the phone directly.
Listening to the busy tone coming from the phone, Liu Qingyu's heart was filled with ups and downs, and his face was full of shock: "It's impossible for me to go to Ruiyuan County, Nanhua City to be the county party secretary. Secretary Zeng is What kind of trick are you playing? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Are you testing me?"
Qin Ruijie said with a smile: "I think it is very likely that Secretary Zeng was testing you before. Otherwise, how could he help you find such a position? Liu Qingyu, I think you are really on the official career express this time." Well, Secretary Zeng is the No. 1 provincial party committee member of Baiyun Province. Under normal circumstances, how could he ask you about the job adjustment of a small department-level cadre? Just the personnel work at the department level is enough to keep him busy for a while. Yes, I think Secretary Zeng must have a love for your talents. Because of this, he will be extremely strict with you.
I think it is impossible for Secretary Zeng not to know that Li Wanjun directly dismissed you as the secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, and it is even more impossible not to know his true intentions, but he just stood still. This should be a test of your character and willpower. After all, it is normal to have ups and downs in officialdom, and only if you can pass this test can you go further."
Liu Qingyu nodded vigorously after listening. In fact, Liu Qingyu was not clear about these principles. It was just clear. But after all, Liu Qingyu was not that kind of veteran now, but a man who had just passed 24 The young man who was only about half a year old still had an impetuous temperament. Because of this, he felt a trace of resentment towards Zeng Hongtao in his heart.
But at this moment, the resentment in Liu Qingyu's heart has completely disappeared. After experiencing the ups and downs of emotions, Liu Qingyu has matured a lot and has seen many things more clearly. But at this moment, Liu Qingyu There was no joy in his heart about becoming the real leader, but more of a heaviness after a heavy burden was placed on his shoulders. He heard clearly what Zeng Hongtao said just now. Secretary Zeng asked him to go to Ruiyuan County, Nanhua City to rescue the emergency. .
A question came to mind: "What happened in Nanhua County and why do we need to go to rescue ourselves?"
