The next morning, when Qiao Liang saw Xu Chan in the office, a strange look flashed in his eyes.
Xu Chan came in with an important document and put it on Qiao Liang's desk. When she was about to leave, Qiao Liang stopped her.
Qiao Liang walked out from behind the desk and waved to Xu Chan, "Sit down -"
"County Magistrate Qiao, what's going on?" Xu Chan blinked and sat down.
"We haven't had a good chat for a long time." Qiao Liang smiled, sat down face to face with Xu Chan, and asked, "It's been a while since you were transferred from the commission office. How are you doing? Are you still getting used to it?"
"Fortunately, I have worked in government offices before, so my current job is not difficult for me." Xu Chan said with a smile.
"Well, you have experience, and your current job should be very familiar to you." Qiao Liang glanced at Xu Chan as he spoke, and saw that the watch Xu Chan was wearing was very delicate and beautiful, and couldn't help but ask, "Where did you buy this watch? It's very beautiful."
"Ah?" Xu Chan didn't expect Qiao Liang to suddenly ask this, so she subconsciously blocked it with her hand. Seeing Qiao Liang staring at her, she quickly took her hand away and pretended to be casual, "This is a high imitation piece I bought. A fake watch really costs tens of thousands."
"Really, what brand is it?" Qiao Liang asked with a smile.
"This is a high imitation of a brand-name watch. The real one is Cartier's Blue Balloon series. One piece costs tens of thousands." Xu Chan replied with a smile.
"It turns out to be Cartier. I've heard of this brand. It's a well-known international brand." Qiao Liang smiled and nodded, "That kind of watch is really not affordable for ordinary people."
"No, ordinary office workers like me can only buy high-end imitations to enjoy themselves." Xu Chan said with a smile.
"Actually, the function of a watch is to tell the time. It doesn't matter what brand it is, as long as it can tell the time." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"That's true." Xu Chan nodded.
Qiao Liang then changed the subject and said, "The work in the government office is quite complicated. If you find it difficult, ask me to help you more."
Xu Chan was stunned for a moment, then said seriously, "Thank you, County Magistrate Qiao, for your concern. Please rest assured that I am capable of the job."
"Well, it's good if you're competent. I'm afraid you will work too hard. After all, women are not as good as men in terms of physical strength and energy." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"You must be looking down on women. As the saying goes, women hold up half the sky. I think women are no worse than men. Besides, women are more careful than men in doing things." Xu Chan said with a smile.
"You're right. It seems that I have to reflect on myself. I shouldn't look down on women." Qiao Liang nodded, then stood up, "Okay, you go and do your work first. I don't have anything else to do. I just thought about it for a long time. I haven’t sat down and chatted with you, so I wanted to have a conversation with you.”
When Xu Chan heard this, a smile appeared on her face, "Then if you are free, we can make an appointment to have dinner together in the evening."
"In the evening, right? OK, I'll take a look in the afternoon. If we don't have any other plans for the evening, we can have dinner together." Qiao Liang smiled and nodded.
After chatting with Xu Chan, Qiao Liang watched Xu Chan leave with a complicated look in his eyes.
Outside the office, after Xu Chan came out of Qiao Liang's office, she subconsciously stopped and looked back at Qiao Liang's office with a puzzled look on her face. He felt that Qiao Liang's performance today was a bit strange.
After thinking about it for a while, Xu Chan couldn't figure out what was wrong and simply didn't bother to think about it. Anyway, as long as Qiao Liang trusted her, she didn't need to worry too much.
Qiao Liang continued to be busy at work. Near noon, Qiao Liang received a call from Feng Yunming, director of the Municipal Organization Department.
Seeing that the call was from Feng Yunming, Qiao Liang immediately picked up the call, "Minister Feng, what are your instructions?"
"I don't take the instructions seriously, but I want to hear the instructions from County Magistrate Qiao." Feng Yunming joked.
"Minister Feng, you are just making fun of me." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"Then I won't make fun of you, let's talk about business." Feng Yunming said, "Xiao Qiao, your Songbei County deputy secretary is currently vacant, and the city is evaluating suitable candidates. What suggestions do you have?"
Qiao Liang was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that Feng Yunming called him about this matter. Thinking of his situation in the county, Qiao Liang's mind immediately became active. When Li Qingyan was in trouble, he had thought about it if he could have someone close to him. If he comes to take over Li Qingyan's position, then he won't be so isolated in the county.
Thinking in his heart, Qiao Liang's head turned quickly, thinking about suitable candidates for him.
Qiao Liang's first thought was Zhao Jiejie, but he quickly rejected the idea. Zhao Jiejie was just an ordinary deputy county magistrate, not even a member of the team. Normally, it was inappropriate for Zhao Jiejie to be directly promoted to the third-in-command deputy secretary. of.
Suddenly, Qiao Liang's eyes lit up, he thought of someone, and immediately said, "Minister Feng, what do you think of Deputy Minister Ye Xinyi of the City W Propaganda Department?"
"Ye Xinyi?" Feng Yunming thought about this person carefully. He knew that Ye Xinyi was a famous penman in the city, and Ye Xinyi was a municipal cadre. Feng Yunming naturally had an impression of Ye Xinyi.
"Ye Xinyi..." Feng Yunming mused, "Although she is the deputy director of the Propaganda Department, because she does not hold other positions, she is still the deputy director..."
"Yes." Qiao Liang nodded.
"Also, has she just been seconded from the province?" Feng Yunming asked again.
"Well, that's right, she just returned to Jiangzhou after completing her secondment from the province." Qiao Liang nodded.
"It's a good candidate." Feng Yunming nodded in approval, and then asked, "Do you have any other candidates to recommend?"
"No more for now. All I can think of is Ye Xinyi." Qiao Liang shook his head. He was actually thinking of Shao Bingyu, but he obviously couldn't mention Ye Xinyi and Shao Bingyu to Feng Yunming at the same time.
At the same time, Qiao Liang thought that after Ye Xinyi came back from her secondment, the part of the department that she was in charge of was now in charge of Shao Bingyu. As a result, she might be relatively unemployed for a period of time, which would be a great disadvantage to the very enterprising Ye Xinyi. Say, you may feel lost.
Also, although Ye Xinyi's appointment as deputy secretary of the Songbeiqian County Party Committee was a normal one, for Ye Xinyi personally, from the newspaper office to the propaganda department, she had been engaged in relatively secluded work in higher-level units and lacked experience in grassroots work. And training, in terms of qualifications, it seems that something is missing. If she can work as deputy secretary in the county for a few years, it will certainly be good for her future progress.
Putting aside his inner thoughts, Qiao Liang smiled and said, "Minister Feng, you asked me to recommend candidates. The key is, can the ones I recommend count?"
"Haha, even I may not be able to make the final decision on such an important job vacancy, what do you think?" Feng Yunming asked with a smile.
Qiao Liang couldn't help but remain silent after hearing this. When it came to the appointment of a deputy secretary, except for Luo Fei, the top leader who could directly make the decision, Feng Yunming, as the head of the organization, might not be able to decide on the candidate for this position. Therefore, although Feng Yunming asked him to make suggestions, he could not Representatives can be selected.
After thinking for a while, Qiao Liang asked, "Minister Feng, what are Secretary Luo's thoughts?"
"Secretary Luo doesn't care much about this matter. He just asked our Organization Department to come up with the candidates first, and he will make the final decision." Feng Yunming smiled, "I have been thinking about the candidates these days, and today I suddenly thought of asking for your opinion. It's because you are the county magistrate of Songbei after all, so you still have the right to speak."
Hearing Feng Yunming's words, Qiao Liang was moved. He knew that Feng Yunming was really supporting him, otherwise he would not be asking him, but Miao Peilong.
Qiao Liang continued, "Minister Feng, the only suitable candidate I can think of for the moment is Ye Xinyi. I don't think there is a more suitable candidate than her."
"Well, I understand what you mean. Let's do this for now. I will compare other candidates later." Feng Yunming said with a smile.
"Okay." Qiao Liang nodded. He knew how scarce positions of real power were in the system. It could be said that they were like carrots and pitfalls. As soon as Li Qingyan's accident happened, someone would definitely be eyeing Li Qingyan's position. It is estimated that many people also reported to Feng Yunming. He recommends his own people, but as Feng Yunming is the organizational director, whoever he prefers will definitely have an advantage.
The two chatted for a few more words and then hung up the phone.
Qiao Liang went to Yangzhen while talking to Feng Yunming.
An inspection team jointly composed of the County Safety Supervision Bureau, the Land and Resources Bureau, and the County Bureau was formally established this morning and announced a month-long rectification work against the chaos in the quarrying industry in Xiayang Town.
The inspection team was led by the County Work Safety Bureau, with Cai Minghai, deputy director of the Work Safety Bureau, as the team leader. After it was formally established this morning, the inspection team immediately came to Xiayang Town without stopping and began to inspect and rectify the stone mining industry in Xiayang Town. .
In a quarry near the national highway in the town, in the morning, a group of people broke in and smashed some machinery and equipment in the quarry. After nearly an hour, the attackers left.
This stone mine was the stone mine that Huang Qingshan took over from Liu Guangbo. When he received the news, Huang Qingshan was still in the county. When he arrived at the stone mine, what he saw was a pile of broken copper and iron equipment. .
"It's too much to bully others, it's simply too much to bully others." Huang Qingshan was so angry that his whole body was shaking and his face was ferocious.
"Mr. Huang, I told you a long time ago that it is difficult for outsiders to gain a foothold in Xiayang Town. Look at this..." Liu Guangbo pointed at the scene in front of him, speechless.
Liu Guangbo came from the county together with Huang Qingshan. Although the two had completed the transfer agreement privately, their industrial and commercial registrations with relevant departments had not been changed. Liu Guangbo went to the county in the morning to cooperate with Huang Qingshan to complete the final handover. It was a formality, but I didn’t expect that only half a day later, the stone mine was smashed.
Liu Guangbo didn't need to think about it to know who did this. He was actually a little gloating in his heart. If Huang Qingshan was unwilling to take over the stone mine and gave him more grace time to repay the debt, then he would be the biggest beneficiary. .
At this moment, Liu Guangbo quietly observed Huang Qingshan's reaction, while wondering whether Huang Qingshan would change his mind.
"Mr. Liu, are you secretly having fun?" Huang Qingshan stared at Liu Guangbo with a sinister look on his face.
"Mr. Huang is joking, how could I be such a person?" Liu Guangbo shook his head repeatedly and said, "But what I told you is indeed the truth. It is really difficult for outsiders to establish themselves in the town. I am worried that you will take over." In the end, my stone mine was smashed into my hands and I suffered a big loss."
"Don't worry, Mr. Liu." Huang Qingshan looked gloomy and murmured to himself, "I haven't settled the accounts last night, and today I smashed my quarry again. Since I think Huang Qingshan is easy to bully, then I will accompany you.
It’s fun.”
Huang Qingshan has now determined that Liu Liang and his son did this, and only they would have the motive to do this.
The combination of old and new grudges made Huang Qingshan truly angry.
