Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I understand, I will arrange the follow-up matters now." After saying that, Ma Xiaoyao stood up and left.
Neither Ma Xiaoyao nor Cheng Wenyong took Li Ming seriously, which resulted in a big loss later.
…
When Wu Ziyou learned that he might be transferred to the position of director of the Health Bureau, he was extremely happy. Although his rank remained the same, he was promoted from a township official to a county official. The most important thing was that he could work in the county.
Close contact with the county leaders will definitely be of great help to the future. There is a saying that goes, those who are closer to the water will get the moon first. Contact the county leaders every day and flatter them a little. Over time, maybe the county leaders will
How about using Wu Ziyou again?
There were two other people who were very happy, one was Zhu Shilong and the other was Kong Liang. These two people were also extremely happy. They called Ma Xiaoyao one after another to express their gratitude and even invited Ma Xiaoyao to dinner. However, Ma Xiaoyao refused because he was busy with work.
He refused, but Ma Xiaoyao said that when he finds time in the future, he will definitely go back to Gaohe Township to have a good time with Zhu Shilong and Kong Liang.
…
at dusk.
Luo Chuan, director of the county party committee office, dragged his exhausted body back home. As soon as he entered the door, he was stunned.
"Lao Luo, you are back. County Magistrate Li has been waiting for you for a long time." Luo Chuan's wife Feng Linna came out of the kitchen: "Hurry up and chat with Magistrate Li. I will cook more dishes tonight."
Let County Magistrate Li eat at our house."
Sitting on the sofa in the living room is a man wearing a white shirt and black trousers. He is Li Ming, the magistrate of Dongcheng County.
"Director Luo, you are back." Li Ming stood up and greeted Luo Chuan.
Luo Chuan opened his mouth: "Li... County Magistrate Li... you... why are you here?"
"I passed by here after get off work, so I came to take a look. What's wrong? I'm not welcome?" Li Ming said with a smile.
"Ah, how could it be? It's my honor for County Magistrate Li to come to my home as a guest. How could I not welcome him?" Luo Chuan shook his head hastily. He turned to look at Feng Linna who was wearing an apron: "You might as well go
It’s up to the restaurant to ask for some dishes, don’t cook them yourself, remember to ask for some good dishes.”
"I originally wanted to go to the restaurant and ask for food, but County Magistrate Li refused to let me go and insisted on eating home-cooked food made by me," Feng Linna said.
"It's not so particular. Just cook some home-cooked dishes. You don't have to go to a restaurant to ask for food." Li Ming waved his hand: "Come on, Director Luo, come sit down and let's have a good chat."
Seeing that Li Ming insisted on eating the home-cooked food cooked by Feng Linna, Luo Chuan said nothing more. He nodded to Feng Linna: "Then you can cook more vegetables. Isn't there a carp in the refrigerator? You
Take it out and stew it, remember to taste it salty." After giving his wife a few words, Luo Chuan strode towards Li Ming.
Feng Linna responded and walked into the kitchen to start cooking.
"County Magistrate Li, drink tea." Luo Chuan personally made a cup of tea for Li Ming: "I don't have very good tea here, and I hope Magistrate Li won't dislike it."
"It's not that particular." Li Ming picked up the teacup and took a sip: "This tea is pretty good."
Luo Chuan was very confused about Li Ming's visit. He tried hard but couldn't figure out the reason for Li Ming's visit. Luo Chuan glanced at Li Ming and said: "County Magistrate Li, why did you come to my place today?
"
"Didn't I just say that? I passed by here after get off work, so I came here to have a look. There is nothing important. I just want to have a good chat with you. Also, I wonder if Director Luo would agree to come to your house for a meal? "Li Ming said with a smile.
"I agree, of course I agree. I'm just worried that the food at home is simple and not to the taste of County Magistrate Li." Luo Chuan said hurriedly.
Li Ming shook his head: "I'm not very picky about food. No matter how simple the food is, it tastes delicious to me." Li Ming put down the tea cup and pondered for a moment: "Director Luo, you are doing well in your job at the county party committee.
No?"
Are we finally getting to the point? Luo Chuan curled his lips and said, "It's not bad. The position of director of the county party committee office seems to be prestigious, but in fact the management work is too trivial. I am very tired all day long."
"Yes, the director of the county party committee office is like the big housekeeper of the county party committee. From top to bottom, he has to deal with everything. It is really tiring." Li Ming nodded: "Director Luo has really worked hard these years."
"It's hard work, but it's also necessary for work. There's nothing we can do about it." Luo Chuan sighed softly.
"Why is there no way? In fact, there is a way to solve it." Li Ming smiled and said, "I just don't know if Director Luo wants to make it easier for himself? Don't work so hard?"
Luo Chuan was stunned: "County Magistrate Li, I don't quite understand what you mean?"
Li Ming took out his cigarette case and shook it: "Do you mind if I smoke a cigarette?"
"Ah, I don't mind. Please do whatever you want, County Magistrate Li," Luo Chuan said hurriedly.
Li Ming took out a cigarette and held it in his mouth. Luo Chuan, who was sitting across from him, quickly picked up a lighter from the coffee table and helped Li Ming light the cigarette. Li Ming took a puff of the cigarette and smiled: "Luo Chuan
Director, in fact, people have many ways of living, and sometimes they can live more relaxedly and happily. For example, you are working very hard as the director of the county party committee office. What if you change your job? Wouldn't you be able to relax?
Have you stopped?"
"Change jobs?" Luo Chuan raised his eyebrows.
"That's right." Li Ming nodded: "Change jobs, for example...come to the county government as deputy county magistrate?"
"Deputy County Magistrate?" Luo Chuan's eyes suddenly widened: "County Magistrate Li...you...stop joking with me..."
"I'm not kidding you." Li Ming waved his hand: "What I said is true. The work of the county government has been too busy recently, and the current manpower cannot handle it at all, so I decided to report it to the city and request to add another deputy.
County Magistrate, after much thought, Director Luo is the most suitable person to be the Deputy County Magistrate. Director Luo is very capable and highly qualified, so you are definitely qualified for the job of Deputy County Magistrate."
"This..." Luo Chuan really didn't know what to say. Was he moved? Of course he was moved! The deputy county magistrate is a real deputy department-level cadre, and the director of the county party committee office is just a department-level cadre. The two are not at all the same.
At the same level, the most important thing is that after becoming the deputy county magistrate, he will definitely not be as tired as now. However, Luo Chuan still has some doubts in his heart. Now that he is a member of the Standing Committee of the County Committee, he can participate in Standing Committee meetings and participate in major decisions. This is
It is a great power. If you become the deputy county magistrate, the title of county committee standing committee member may be removed. This makes Luo Chuan a little reluctant to part with it.
Li Ming reached out and flicked the cigarette ashes: "After Director Luo becomes the deputy county magistrate, I will work hard and let you continue to serve as a member of the Standing Committee of the county committee and participate in major resolutions in the county. In short, I will not let your power be compromised.
Any slight reduction will only make your power continue to increase."
Li Ming's last words completely dispelled Luo Chuan's doubts, and he was completely moved. However, he did not rush to express his position, but asked: "County Magistrate Li, can I ask you a question? Please answer truthfully.
I!"
Li Ming nodded: "You say."
"Why do you want to help me? It seems that the relationship between you and me is not that close, right?" Luo Chuan asked his question. If he didn't clarify this problem, he would never accept Li Ming's help.
Luo Chuan didn't want to be plotted by Li Ming in a daze.
"Actually, I will tell you even if you don't ask." Li Ming smiled and said, "The reason why I help you is to get your support."
"Get my support?" Luo Chuan narrowed his eyes.
"Yes, you should know the situation in the county very well, right? My current situation is quite embarrassing and I urgently need your support. As long as you give me a promise now and promise to support me forever in the future, I will help you operate and let
How about you becoming the deputy county magistrate and also a member of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee?" Li Ming no longer hid, he opened the skylight and spoke openly. He came to Luo Chuan today just to gain Luo Chuan's support and gain Luo Chuan's support.
Li Ming put a lot of thought into his support, and in the end he even offered the position of deputy county magistrate to seduce Luo Chuan.
Luo Chuan pondered for a moment: "Can you let me think about it?"
"Okay, how about I give you one night and give me a reply tomorrow morning?" Li Ming smiled and nodded.
"Okay, I'll give you an answer tomorrow morning." Luo Chuan nodded.
"It's time to eat..." Feng Linna's shout came from the kitchen.
"County Magistrate Li, let's eat." Luo Chuan immediately put down the table and asked Li Ming to eat. There were ten dishes in total, which was very rich. I have to say that Feng Linna's cooking skills are very good, and the meals she made were very delicious.
Yes, Li Ming had a great appetite and kept praising it.
The three of them drank a bottle of liquor, mainly because Li Ming and Luo Chuan drank too much. Feng Linna only drank a small glass. In fact, Feng Linna didn't usually drink, but today Li Ming was a guest, so Feng Linna made an exception and drank with Li Ming.
One cup.
After finishing the meal, Li Ming stood up and left.
After seeing off Li Ming, Luo Chuan returned to the living room, bent down and sat on the sofa: "Lina, make me a cup of tea."
Feng Linna found an empty cup and made a cup of hot tea for Luo Chuan. Then she sat next to Luo Chuan and asked, "What does Li Ming want from you?"
"He said he would help me get promoted and let me be the deputy county magistrate. The premise is that I will support him in the future, that is, be his confidant. You can give me some advice and see if I agree?" Luo Chuan asked Feng Linna,
Feng Linna works in a government agency and is very smart. Luo Chuan would always ask Feng Linna for advice on any difficult issues, and Feng Linna would give good advice every time.
"Has Li Ming been in any trouble recently?" Feng Linna asked.
"Yes." Luo Chuan nodded: "Li Ming's current situation is rather embarrassing. First of all, the county party secretary Cheng Wenyong is not dealing with him, and the executive deputy county magistrate Ma Xiaoyao also has conflicts with Li Ming. Now Li Ming has almost been replaced by Cheng Wenyong.
He and Ma Xiaoyao were on the other side, so Li Ming was anxious to find me to support him."
