In the face of absolute power, all conspiracies and machinations will fall apart like snow in spring, and they will be vulnerable to a single blow.
Only in the face of equal strength or a small disparity in strength can it be possible for the two armies to confront each other for a decisive victory. Otherwise, it would be a naked massacre.
Unfortunately, there are always people in life who do not understand this truth.
"What's wrong with you?"
Facing Zhao Wen's question, Mu Kaishan smiled flatteringly and said, "Deputy County Magistrate Zhao, look, can I go in to talk? It's very windy outside."
Sometimes it is easier to get along with a true villain than a hypocrite. Even though he understood that the person in front of him had "evil" intentions, Zhao Wen felt that he could not lose his grace, although it didn't matter whether he gave Mu Kaishan this grace or not.
After entering the house, Mu Kaishan laughed and said: "Deputy County Magistrate Zhao is really incorruptible. The house is so simple, I really admire him from the bottom of my heart..."
"Deputy County Magistrate Zhao, I just bought a new set of furniture from the city a few days ago and plan to put it in my new home. However, my wife insisted on living in the city. She looked at other houses in the city.
We also ordered furniture, and the furniture comes in sets. The set provided by the county is redundant. You see, why don’t you do me a favor and use my set?"
Zhao Wen made a gesture of asking to sit down and sat down first. Mu Kaishan nodded and also sat down. Zhao Wen said: "New furniture? Do you think my house can match your new furniture?"
Mu Kaishan slapped his forehead: "Hey, look at my brain, otherwise, I would live in the city, and the house in the county would be empty. County Magistrate, why don't you just move there?
Make the best use of it, and secondly, change the environment, do you think?"
Zhao Wen said: "Thank you, but comrades in the county all live like this, so I don't need to be special - if you have something to do, please speak up."
Zhao Wenxin said that Mu Kaishan sat down this time. Could it be that the hemorrhoids were cured? Or did he think he had collected the money last time. Was he getting a sign of good behavior?
Mu Kaishan thought Zhao Wen was being polite. He chuckled and said, "Actually, in the county, except for a few temporary leaders, they all have their own residences."
Of course, the residences of other county leaders mentioned by Mu Kaishan were not like the residence where Zhao Wen lives now, but what did he want to say when he confided this to Zhao Wen?
As if seeing Zhao Wen's indifference, Mu Kaishan said: "Deputy County Magistrate Zhao has not been here for a long time, but he is very courageous. I am really impressed by you... The leather goods factory is no longer working, but...
I still want to continue to use my energy and energy——"
As expected, when you treat others with courtesy, you must ask for something.
"Oh, I wonder what Director Mu wants to do, or where he can continue to use his light and heat? What can I do for you?"
Mu Kaishan didn't understand Zhao Wen's somewhat ridiculing words, and his expression suddenly became solemn: "I respect the county's arrangement."
"I am a brick of the revolution. I can move it wherever it is needed."
"I just hope that when the county considers my job, they can see that I have worked in a leather goods factory, a large factory with hundreds of people, and can fully consider my strengths. That would be great."
After Mu Kaishan said this, he sat for a while and then left.
When leaving this time, Mu Kaishan did not say loudly, Deputy County Magistrate Zhao, please stay. It was as if he came quietly and left quietly without disturbing anyone.
Those who make a big show of things are always bluffing and seeking skin from the tiger, while those who are covert and silent are always secretly attacking Guo.
Mu Kaishan performed well this time and said some high-sounding words. Zhao Wen understood one thing from his short words: Mu Kaishan's new job was already being planned by some people in the county, and Mu Kaishan
Kaishan came to me. One was because he felt that the last gift-giving was successful and he felt that he was already familiar with him, so he walked around "casually" to enhance the relationship and see if he could continue to be closer. The other was that
I hope that Zhao Wen will not say anything against or obstruct the arrangement of his new position.
The next morning, a meeting of the County Party Committee Standing Committee was to be held in Dawang County. Before the meeting, County Party Secretary Long Renhai came to talk to Zhao Wen.
Long Renhai first asked Zhao Wen about his recent investigation at the grassroots level, and then said: "Zhou Xuejing from Wulong Township is still capable."
"The grassroots level is different from those above us. There is a saying that seeing through the world is so cool that your heart will be cooled, and seeing the truth will be shocking."
"In fact, the lower the officials are at the bottom, the more difficult their jobs are. I have been working there for a long time and I am very impressed by this."
Zhao Wen looked at Long Renhai, wondering whether he was telling him how to be an official, or pleading for Zhou Xuejing from Wulong Township, or something else.
Long Renhai personally poured a glass of water for Zhao Wen, brought it over, waited for Zhao Wen to take it, and sat next to him: "For example, some safety incidents, mass petitions, and some political issues mostly occur at the grassroots level.
.”
"If something goes wrong, don't talk about the trivial matter. Once it gets bigger, if you want to deal with people, you'll have to deal with the grassroots first."
"Now there are just two of us, you as the executive deputy county magistrate, and me as the secretary, talking behind closed doors. For example, the sit-in at the leather goods factory a few days ago, let alone hundreds of people, sat for a day and a half.
I have been sitting there for a year and a half, can anything happen in the city? Can anything happen in the province?"
"County Magistrate Xiao Zhao, I can tell you for sure, no, not at all, they can't cause chaos."
"Speaking of this, you may ask, if nothing happened, how much trouble could it cause? Smashing the county government?"
"If there is an incident, and those responsible are held accountable, can those in the city and province be dealt with? No, only our grassroots people are on the front line."
Long Renhai smiled and said: "I am just saying this to explain a truth. It is difficult at the grassroots level. The difficulty lies in the grassroots level. You and I are the grassroots level, and Wulong, Siping, and Tuwa, they are the grassroots among the grassroots."
"For Zhou Xuejing, we are the superiors. People like Zhou Xuejing are the ones who bother ordinary people the most."
"And for ordinary incidents, when they reach the county level, they are a watershed and a firewall."
"In the eyes of the common people, the county magistrate is in charge of hundreds of thousands of people in the county. He is a very big official. In the drama, the common people often refer to Mr. Qingtian. In fact, most of them refer to you. I am not. Haha, but you
, the work pressure and responsibility risks that I bear are also unimaginable for ordinary people, but Zhou Xuejing and others live among ordinary people and are tested all the time."
"If I had to use an analogy, I feel like we were baked on an electric baking pan. The pressure from our superiors and the firepower of the people below made us mature very quickly."
When Long Renhai said this, he looked at Zhao Wen with a smile.
Zhao Wen said: "The secretary said something serious and thoughtful, I will remember it."
Long Renhai said: "It has been so long since County Magistrate Xiao Zhao arrived in Dawang, and I haven't had a good chat with you. This is my dereliction of duty. It's also because I don't care enough about you. At the same time, you often go down below and your enthusiasm for work,
It is obvious to all of us.”
After Long Renhai said this, he leaned back on the sofa and said casually: "According to what the organization knows, County Magistrate Xiao Zhao is not married yet?"
Long Renhai looked sideways at Zhao Wen. Zhao Wen nodded and said yes, but Zhao Wen did not respond to Long Renhai's probing gaze.
Long Renhai laughed and said, "I'm just curious. After all, County Magistrate Xiao Zhao is very good. I'm full of expectations for yours."
Having finished speaking, Zhao Wen behaved somewhat speciously and gave ambiguous answers, but Long Renhai felt that his goal had been achieved, at least what he wanted to say had been said.
This was the first time Zhao Wen had a long conversation with a top leader after arriving in Dawang County, and there were too many things that could be understood.
When Long Renhai mentioned the incident at the leather goods factory, he did not talk about the riots made by the employees. He was very particular about the art of conversation and strategy. It was considered a respect for Zhao Wen, and it was also a signal to the powerful deputy.
The county magistrate's gesture of goodwill.
Two things are clear. Long Renhai knew about Zhao Wen's encounter in Wulong Township yesterday. He did not say that Zhou Xuejing was wrong, nor did he say that Zhou Xuejing was right. He only talked about the difficulties at the grassroots level and let Zhao Wen think about it himself.
Zhao Wen knew that Long Renhai regarded him from the bottom of his heart as the type of person who was young and energetic, had a background that could not be offended, and would be promoted after the king finished gilding. Such people have emerged in endlessly in Dawang County in recent years, so Zhao Wen
He didn't take Long Renhai's attitude seriously either.
Another point is that Long Renhai's words are very representative and reflect the aspirations of other cadres in Dawang County. That is, why is Zhao Wen, the executive deputy county magistrate, not married yet?
This issue is as eye-catching and speculative as Zhao Wen is young but in a high position.
After a while, Miao Dahai, director of the county party committee office and one of the standing committee members of the county party committee, came in and told Long Renhai that the standing committee meeting was ready.
Just when Zhao Wen was about to go out, Long Renhai seemed to remember it and said: "That toilet is just a face-saving project. Sometimes, in order to gain, you have to pay."
"This is the actual situation of your Majesty."
Zhao Wen came out and walked in the corridor, thinking that what Long Renhai said made sense. If pleasing some people in the Provincial Poverty Alleviation Office was a necessary condition for the smooth distribution of poverty alleviation funds, building a magnificent public toilet that was very different from the local situation would
For poverty alleviation funds, it is a drop in the bucket, but it is also an indispensable step.
I just don’t know that the female leader of the Provincial Poverty Alleviation Office built a latrine in Wulong Township that was considered a five-star latrine in Wulong Township with just one complaint. Later, she visited Wulong again. Did she know that the latrines were bright and clear?
Are you still waiting for her in vain?
On this point, people who have been to Wulong Township will always remember her constructive remarks.
Since Zou Youfeng, the former secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee and director of the Public Security Bureau, was investigated by the superior disciplinary inspection agency for violating disciplines, there are now only eight standing committee members left in the Dawang County Standing Committee meeting.
This meeting of the Standing Committee was chaired by Secretary Long Renhai. After deliberation on some issues, County Magistrate Mai Zhenghao said: "Dear members of the Standing Committee, I would like to talk about the issues of stability and development."
"Without social stability, there is no prerequisite and guarantee for social development; without social stability, it is impossible to have peace of personal life - this is an iron law that has been proven by countless historical and realistic practices."
“To consciously maintain social harmony and stability, we must cherish the hard-won good situation.”
"To consciously maintain social harmony and stability, we must unify our thinking and gather strength. Development is the hard truth, and stability is the hard task."
"I think the most important thing for our king at present is stability. Only when there is stability can there be development and development."
Mai Zhenghao's seemingly meaningless words made everyone a little confused, but the deaf listened to the opera and the mute spoke.
After Mai Zhenghao finished speaking briefly, Zhao Wen received it in a deep voice: "Let me also say a few words."
"Stability and development have always been interdependent, but they are not absolute. The relationship between them should be dialectical unity, without contradiction or opposition. I am in you, and you are in me."
Zhao Wen's words made some people even more confused, thinking that he said it as if he didn't say it, but Long Renhai understood that Zhao Wen wanted to refute Mai Zhenghao.
Mai Zhenghao focuses on stability, which is a kind of stability that has been traveled a long way, while Zhao Wen emphasizes development. He believes that development and stability are closely related, but they are not bumpy and unbreakable.
Long Renhai instantly felt that today's Standing Committee meeting would be quite lively. (To be continued...)
