The day passed very quickly. After Qiao Liang and Cai Minghai finished talking, they were still a little uneasy in the next work.
In the evening, Qiao Liang worked overtime in the office until after eight o'clock. When leaving the office, Qiao Liang and his secretary Fu Minghai went downstairs and asked, "What was the reaction of Director Shao's family to the incident of him jumping off the building?"
"It seems to be quite peaceful. I was talking about this matter with a friend from the Water Conservancy Bureau in the evening. He said that after Director Shao's lover came over, except for crying a few times at the beginning, his reaction afterwards was quite calm," Fu Minghai said.
Qiao Liang was stunned and asked, "How is the relationship between Director Shao and his lover?"
"I really don't know about this. I have to ask someone who is familiar with them." Fu Minghai shook his head.
Hearing this, Qiao Liang nodded slightly, seeming to be thinking about something.
On the side, Fu Minghai saw Qiao Liang's expression and whispered again, "County Magistrate Qiao, is there really something hidden in this matter?"
"What do you think?" Qiao Liang asked Fu Minghai.
Fu Minghai scratched his head and said, "County Magistrate, I'm just going to keep my words. We don't dare to say more about the truth, let alone guess more. I'm afraid that one day I will be depressed too."
"You have a lot of weird words." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"County Magistrate Qiao, I am telling the truth." Fu Minghai said with a dry smile.
"In this world, sometimes the last thing you can tell is the truth." Qiao Liang smiled and patted Fu Minghai on the shoulder, "Xiao Fu, you will continue to pay attention to Director Shao's matter later, but if there is no evidence, stay out of it. Nonsense, do you understand?"
"County Magistrate, I understand." Fu Minghai nodded solemnly.
The two separated in the county compound. Qiao Liang went directly back to the dormitory, washed up, and prepared to read for a while before going to bed early. In the past two days, he was not only physically tired, but also mentally tired.
Qiao Liang sat down in the living room and just picked up the book and read for a while when his cell phone rang. When he saw the caller's number, Qiao Liang's expression perked up and he immediately picked up the call excitedly.
"Sister Wu." Qiao Liang called kindly.
"Xiao Qiao, what are you doing?" Wu Huiwen said with a smile.
"I just got back to the dormitory, and I'm going to read a book." Qiao Liang replied with a smile.
"Really? I'm in Songbei now, do you want to come out?" Wu Huiwen asked with a smile.
"Sister Wu, are you in Songbei?" Qiao Liang looked surprised.
"Well, I'm in Songbei Hotel now, room 802." Wu Huiwen said.
Qiao Liang frowned slightly. The Songbei Hotel was Jiang Hui's territory. There were many people and mixed views. If he was going to meet someone else, Qiao Liang might not care. But if he was going to meet Wu Huiwen, Qiao Liang would subconsciously have more concerns.
After thinking for a while, Qiao Liang said, "Sister Wu, why don't you come to my dormitory? The house I rent is quite quiet and there are no other people around. The Songbei Hotel is a bit more crowded."
"Okay, then I'll go over and give me your address." Wu Huiwen said cheerfully.
Qiao Liang sent the address to Wu Huiwen, and then happily waited for Wu Huiwen to come over. Qiao Liang was inexplicably excited about seeing Wu Huiwen later.
Putting down the book, Qiao Liang thought for a moment and soon started tinkering. He remembered that Wu Huiwen had the habit of drinking red wine to sleep at night. He could come over later and have a drink with Wu Huiwen.
Qiao Liang took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet, opened it in advance and poured it into a decanter. Although he rarely used this thing, luckily he had it prepared.
Red wine alone was not enough. Qiao Liang thought there was a small shop at the entrance of the community, so she went to buy a few bottles of Sprite in her pajamas and came back.
After doing this, after waiting for another seven or eight minutes, Qiao Liang heard the sound of the door opening.
Knowing that Wu Huiwen would be arriving soon, Qiao Liang deliberately left the door open.
"Oh, there's still a door open for me." Wu Huiwen opened the door and walked in with a smile.
"Sister Wu, here we come." Qiao Liang hurried forward to greet her, with an excited look on her face.
Seeing that Qiao Liang was so happy to see him, Wu Huiwen joked, "Why, are you so happy to see me?"
"No, when I see Sister Wu, I feel like all my worries are gone." Qiao Liang laughed and asked again, "Sister Wu, why did you come to Songbei?"
"On the way back to Guanzhou when I was going to the provincial capital for business, I thought about it and asked the driver to take a detour to Songbei. Anyway, the distance is not that far." Wu Huiwen said with a smile.
When Qiao Liang heard this, he felt a little moved. He took a detour to Songbei to return to Guanzhou. The distance was not that far away. Although Wu Huiwen said that, he actually came to Songbei specifically to see him.
"Sister Wu, sit down." Qiao Liang invited Wu Huiwen to sit down.
Wu Huiwen walked to the sofa and sat down. He saw the book on the coffee table. Wu Huiwen picked it up and took a look. "The Wealth of Nations" was the book Qiao Liang was reading. Wu Huiwen also looked at the bookmark and saw that Qiao Liang had already read half of it.
He couldn't help but ask, "Have you been reading this book lately?"
"Well, I'm not afraid of Sister Wu's jokes. I've been reading it for several months and haven't finished it yet. I started reading this book when I was in Liangbei, and now that I've returned to Jiangzhou, I brought it back." Qiao Liang laughed. He shook his head and said, "I only take time to watch it after get off work every day. Sometimes I can't make up my mind to watch it."
"It's good to read more books on economics. To be a leader, you need to know a lot about economics, but you don't have to know everything about it." Wu Huiwen smiled, "I suggest you read more books on this type of book in the future."
"I understand that after becoming the county magistrate, I often felt that I was lacking in professional knowledge." Qiao Liang said.
"You are the leader, and you don't need to have professional economic knowledge. There will naturally be professional people in charge below. As long as you can recognize and employ people, of course, as a leader, it is better to understand than not, but as a leader
The most important thing for the top leader is to do overall planning." Wu Huiwen said.
Xu Shi and Qiao Liang were talking about studying, and Wu Huiwen suddenly asked, "Xiao Qiao, have you ever thought about furthering your studies and going to graduate school?"
"Going to graduate school?" Qiao Liang was stunned when he heard this. He had never thought about this question.
Seeing Qiao Liang stunned, Wu Huiwen knew the answer, "It seems you have never thought about this question."
"Sister Wu, I really haven't thought about this." Qiao Liang nodded.
"Then you should think about it carefully, Xiao Qiao. You should know that in the selection and appointment of cadres, organizations now pay more and more attention to highly educated and professional talents. For example, when selecting cadres for the same position, those with higher academic qualifications must be recognized.
If you have an advantage, you will be given priority. This trend has become more and more obvious in the past few years. It will only strengthen in the future and will not weaken. Therefore, young cadres like you must pay more attention to improving their academic qualifications. After all,
You still have a long road ahead." Wu Huiwen said seriously.
Qiao Liang knew that Wu Huiwen was giving him a hint, so he nodded and said, "Sister Wu, I will consider this later, but I am too busy with work now. How can I have time to study?"
"You are stupid. Among the current leading cadres who go to graduate school, how many of them study part-time? Why don't you just get an on-the-job graduate degree?" Wu Huiwen said.
"Yes." Qiao Liang nodded.
While the two were talking, Wu Huiwen couldn't help but smile when he saw the red wine on the table, "Are you going to treat me to a drink of red wine?"
"Yes." Qiao Liang laughed, "Don't Sister Wu have the habit of drinking red wine before going to bed? I thought you could have a few drinks at my place so that you can sleep better when you go back later."
"You are so thoughtful, but you didn't expect to remember this habit of mine." Wu Huiwen glanced at Qiao Liang with emotion, feeling a little confused in her heart. This little man in front of her could always touch her heart inadvertently. Maybe this was also her reason.
Maybe that’s why I made a special detour to see Qiao Liang.
Qiao Liang didn't know what Wu Huiwen was thinking, so he walked over to get the red wine, poured a glass for each of them, and mixed some Sprite. Qiao Liang said, "Sister Wu, let's have a drink."
"Okay." Wu Huiwen picked up the wine glass, clinked it with Qiao Liang, took a sip, and said half-jokingly, "You even prepared the red wine, and you didn't cook two side dishes. Wouldn't it be more interesting to drink like this?
?”
Qiao Liang said quickly, "Sister Wu, I don't usually cook by myself. There are not many vegetables in the refrigerator. Why don't you wait while I go to the supermarket to buy two vegetables and cook them right away."
"Forget it, it's already this time. There are still vegetables in the supermarket. If there are any, they will be picked up by people and left over. Don't go there." Wu Huiwen said with a smile, "I just said casually, we will look for it next time."
It will take some time to drink well."
"Okay, next time I'm free, I'll go to Guanzhou to find you." Qiao Liang nodded.
"Welcome, I'll wait for you in Guanzhou." Wu Huiwen smiled.
While the two were drinking, Wu Huiwen asked again with concern, "I just heard you say you were troubled. What happened?"
"It's not because of the reservoir collapse. Alas, more than a dozen people died. This is the most serious accident that has happened in Songbei County in recent years. The provincial leaders gave instructions and the city also sent an investigation team down.
Well, there will be more troubles in the future." Qiao Liang sighed.
"I saw yesterday's Jiangdong Daily report. The wording of the 'Three Questions about the Collapse of Songbei Reservoir' report was very sharp. Is the content in it true?" Wu Huiwen looked a little serious.
"Well, the questions raised in it all exist objectively, and that report was actually done secretly by me," Qiao Liang said.
"Did you let someone do it?" Wu Huiwen looked at Qiao Liang in surprise.
"That's right." Qiao Liang smiled bitterly and said to Wu Huiwen, "I had no choice but to worry about Secretary Luo covering the lid, so I took the initiative to lift the lid in advance."
Wu Huiwen was slightly startled after hearing what Qiao Liang said. She guessed that the collapse of the Songbei Reservoir might involve some engineering corruption issues, but because it did not happen in her own territory, Wu Huiwen did not pay too much attention. Now Qiao Liang said
Worrying that Luo Fei would cover the lid was indeed beyond Wu Huiwen's expectation. From this point of view, the problem here may be much more complicated than she thought before.
