Although this was not considered bribery, the cumulative amount was huge. When he returned to the office, he handed all the cards and tickets he received to Wu Jiangkai's desk. Unexpectedly, Wu Jiangkai was very indifferent and said: "Others gave Just take it, it's the New Year and you've worked hard for a year, as long as you don't do anything behind my back." Shen Tong was able to report these situations to himself, which made Wu Jiangkai very satisfied.
Shen Tong had no choice but to put it in his pocket again, but his uneasy heart could not calm down.
What's more ferocious is yet to come. If some leaders want to see Wu Jiangkai, they will call him in advance to inquire. He took advantage of his position to reveal Wu Jiangkai's whereabouts. It is normal for subordinates to wish their leaders New Year's greetings. What's more, he doesn't know Wu Jiangkai. What do you think, if he really blocks the car, Wu Jiangkai might be unhappy.
However, after several operations, Wu Jiangkai was not angry. On the contrary, he got off work earlier than before these days. As soon as it got dark, the leaders of various units lined up to wish Wu Jiangkai New Year's greetings.
Of course, Shen Tong's role as "intelligence agent" was not in vain. When some leaders gave gifts to Wu Jiangkai, they also prepared a copy for him and Lao Wei.
When the holidays came, Old Wei was very happy. He didn't go anywhere these two days, just waiting for others to honor Wu Jiangkai. With Wu Jiangkai's presence, naturally he was indispensable. In these two days, Old Wei went to the market. He made two or three trips there, basically delivering "materials" to Wu Jiangkai.
Wu Jiangkai is not a corrupt official, this is what Shen Tong knows. Although Wu Jiangkai does not accept money from others, he still accepts things given by others during the holidays, and Shen Tong also gets benefits, which he cannot accept for a while. .
What's even more exciting is yet to come. Director of the Public Security Bureau Wan Qiang gave Shen Tong a year's subsidy, 300 yuan a month, which is more than 3,000 yuan a year. According to Wan Qiang, you have worked hard for a year and this is what you deserve. Li Junfeng, director of the Unified Sales Office, was also generous and gave Shen Tong a transportation subsidy of 2,000 yuan. Zhao Xiaosheng, director of the Bureau of Land and Resources, also expressed his appropriate intentions.
The most unexpected thing is that He Yunchang, the director of Guozigou Coal Mine, miraculously wished Wu Jiangkai a happy new year. Before leaving, he gave Shen Tong 10 tons of charcoal stamps to express his gratitude to Shen Tong for publishing his book.
Calculated in this way, Shen Tongguang received more than 8,000 yuan in cash, and with shopping cards, various tickets amounted to tens of thousands of yuan. Oh my god, his annual salary is less than 8,000 yuan. This, this ,this……
In addition, there were also some tobacco, wine, tea, and a lot of local products, including eggs, fungus, mushrooms, pheasants, etc. There was so much to eat. Shen Tong except for leaving a little for the family, basically got them all. Lan Yue's house. In addition, he specially sent some to his uncle Liu Guozhi, so that Liu Guozhi and his aunt were happy to praise Shen Tong for being sensible.
If you take something from others, you have to give something yourself. People like Wu Jiangkai, Zhang Liwei, Lu Wei, Zhao Yitang, and Wan Qiang all have to visit, but it is hard for Shen Tong to give anything. Gifts are nothing more than tobacco, wine, and tea, and cash It's too straightforward, but it's a bit difficult to convey new ideas.
For leaders, they don’t care what you give. Even if you give it, they won’t remember what you gave it. But if you don’t give it, the leader will remember it clearly. If the gift is light, you can’t get it. If the gift is expensive, you won’t be able to get it. And I can't afford it. Just like tobacco, wine and tea, the leaders all smoke Chinese, and one bottle costs hundreds. You should at least get it in pairs. The same goes for wine. One bottle is too monotonous, so it must be two bottles. This way After all, it will cost two months' salary.
After some thought, Shen Tong decided to ask his father to braise some pig head meat and send some to each family. The gift was light and thoughtful. Then he would visit them during the Chinese New Year and give their children a big red envelope. The gift was reasonable and reasonable.
Sure enough, after Shen Tong delivered the pig head meat to Zhao Yitang's house, he was very happy. He told Shen Tong that his favorite food is pig head meat, but the ones bought on the street are not authentic, and the taste made by your father must be You can’t go wrong. The most important thing is to have that intention.
Celebrating holidays and New Years is a kind of enjoyment for leaders, but it is simply a kind of torture for subordinates. They have to consider everything without losing dignity. A lot of money is spent like this, at least two Month's salary is gone, but you have to endure it.
There are leaders above the leaders, and they also need to bleed a lot, but they bleed much more skillfully. Most of them use public funds to give gifts, and of course they don't feel bad if they don't spend their own money.
Wu Jiangkai also wanted to give gifts, and the area was quite large. Some of the leaders were replaced by Shen Tong, who kept up with Old Wei and brought some worthless local products to their homes. But there were some important people who needed to come forward in person. Naturally, He would not take Shen Tong with him, and even Old Wei was not allowed to follow him. Once, Old Wei let it slip that Wu Jiangkai had brought Liu Haidong, the chairman of Xinyuan Real Estate Company, to give a gift, which made Shen Tong a little confused. mind.
"What is the relationship between Liu Haidong and Wu Jiangkai?" A big question mark hovered in Shen Tong's mind.
The New Year is approaching day by day, and government officials are no longer interested in going to work. People from some units come to sign in, drink tea and chat, and then run home to clean and tidy up their homes after 10 o'clock. Some even sign in without signing in. I just took leave and waited for the Chinese New Year with peace of mind. This is especially true compared to some unpopular units.
There is a custom in Dongquan that one needs to buy new clothes before the Chinese New Year, but Shen Tong is busy running around with Wu Jiangkai and drafting work reports, so there is no time to go out and buy clothes. Lan Yue plans to go shopping in Longzhong City together, but With Shen Tong being so busy, it was probably unlikely. So she took a look at Sunday and ran to Longzhong City alone, shopping for clothes like crazy without any hesitation.
"Lan Yue!" Lan Yue was carefully choosing clothes for Shen Tong when she suddenly heard someone calling her. She turned her head curiously, and the clothes in her hands fell to the ground instantly, and she froze there.
A gentle-looking man wearing a suit walked towards Lan Yue. "Lan Yue, is it really you?"
Lan Yue felt dizzy and reached out to grab the guardrail next to her, but she couldn't grasp it firmly and fell to the ground.
The man reached out to help Lan Yue, but Lan Yue didn't seem to appreciate it. She waved her hand vigorously and stood up strongly, with tears in her eyes.
The man grabbed Lan Yue's hand and begged: "Lan Yue, I'm back. I've been looking for you since I came back, and I didn't expect to meet you here."
Lan Yue tried her best to break free, but the man held her tightly, and she tried to break away several times to no avail. She turned around and wiped away her tears and said, "Why are you coming back? Just leave, I don't know you."
The man also looked slightly sad, frowning and said: "Lanyue, don't be like this. I know I was sorry for you at the beginning, and I won't leave when I come back this time. Can I make it up to you?"
Lan Yue cried even more sadly. She tried her best to break free, squatted on the ground with her head in her hands and cried loudly. The salesperson next to her felt baffled when she saw this scene. In less than a moment, people were surrounding her.
