After three glasses of wine, Qiao Liang got used to the intensity of the wine, and it tasted really exciting.
Seeing that Qiao Liang was drinking happily, Zhou Zhilong said: "County Magistrate Qiao, the last time you came to report, before I saw you, I felt that you were a chivalrous and courageous person, and a chivalrous and courageous person always drank neatly in everything he did. It’s all enjoyable.”
"Why does County Magistrate Zhou think I am a chivalrous and courageous person?" Qiao Liang said.
"Because of your righteous behavior the night you first arrived in Liangbei." Zhou Zhilong laughed, "Although the official version of the matter is one way or another, I am more willing to believe what you said."
"What I said..." Qiao Liang blinked. Regarding the real reason and process of beating Shang Ke, only Ding Xiaoyun in Liangbei knew, and the investigators from the city knew. How did Zhou Zhilong know?
Seeing the confusion on Qiao Liang's face, Zhou Zhilong said: "If you don't know what you don't know, there is no airtight wall in the world unless you do it yourself. County Magistrate Qiao must be wondering how I know about it, right?"
"Yes, yes." Qiao Liang nodded.
Zhou Zhilong smiled unpredictably: "Actually, it doesn't matter how I know. The key is that I only need to know that you are a chivalrous and upright person. That is enough."
Seeing that Zhou Zhilong was unwilling to reveal more, Qiao Liang did not ask further questions. He secretly thought that Zhou Zhilong might have some personal relationship with a certain investigator who came to the city last time and found out about it through him. This kind of thing is a violation of investigation discipline. Yes, Zhou Zhilong obviously wants to keep it a secret.
Then Zhou Zhilong raised his glass and touched Qiao Liang: "I, Zhou Zhilong, like to make friends with people like County Magistrate Qiao the most. Of course, for County Magistrate Qiao, I don't know if I am qualified to make friends with him, and I don't know if I can climb high."
Zhou Zhilong's words immediately made Qiao Liang uneasy, and he waved his hands in a hurry: "What County Magistrate Zhou said is wrong. In terms of age, you are the elder brother, and I am the younger brother. The qualifications are in turn. You are the senior member of the team, and I am the newcomer. Thank you." County Magistrate Zhou thinks highly of you, so I should be the one who outshines you."
"Haha..." Qiao Liang's words obviously made Zhou Zhilong feel comfortable, and he continued, "County Magistrate Qiao is young and promising, and has a bright future. After his temporary post is over, he will definitely reach a higher level. From the perspective of development prospects, I and I My brother is incomparable."
"What the hell." Qiao Liang said modestly, "County Magistrate Zhou is also a veteran in the county government, and he will definitely make further progress."
"More progress? Haha, I don't know how old the monkey is." Zhou Zhilong said with emotion, "I have been working in the team for some years. I have sent away secretaries and county magistrates one after another. The first and second eldest children take turns in a revolving door. There’s me, Lao Zhou… Damn, let’s not talk anymore…”
Having said this, Zhou Zhilong drank a glass of wine by himself with a self-deprecating expression.
Qiao Liang could see that Zhou Zhilong was dissatisfied with his current situation, and he couldn't help but reveal this emotion after drinking.
Zhou Zhilong's ability to say this to himself seemed to be related to the fact that he was here for a temporary job. Firstly, he had no interaction with him before. Secondly, he would leave after his temporary job was over, and there would be no long-term conflict of interest with him. Thirdly, Because he beat up Shang Ke, he couldn't help but have a good impression of him.
Then Qiao Liang said: "County Magistrate Zhou, how long have you been working in Liangbei?"
"I, a native of Liangbei, have been working in Liangbei since the beginning, first at the township agricultural technology station, and then step by step to reach my current position," Zhou Zhilong said.
Qiao Liang couldn't help but be in awe when he heard this. This is a local cadre who came from the grassroots level. Every step he takes should be solid. He should know the grassroots level very well.
"How many people are like you in the team?" Qiao Liang asked.
"I am the only one. The other members of the team are all day cadres from outside. They basically work for a few years and then leave. Especially the first and second eldest, they basically come to get gold-plated. In fact, it is said that I, a local cadre, can achieve this position. We should be satisfied, so we don’t have any big hopes or any dreams of getting promoted or getting rich, we just need to be the executive deputy county magistrate.” Zhou Zhilong said.
Qiao Liang nodded, and then said after careful consideration: "County Magistrate Zhou, do you think Secretary Ding also came here to gild?"
"This..." Zhou Zhilong paused, "Secretary Ding has only been in Liangbei for a few months. She really wants to do something down-to-earth in Liangbei, but with County Magistrate Shang here, it may be difficult for her to have the opportunity to realize her goal. His ambition is gone, unless County Magistrate Shang ends the gilding as soon as possible and transfers him away early."
Qiao Liang rolled his eyes and continued: "Listen to what County Magistrate Zhou means, County Magistrate Shang is this in Liangbei -"
Qiao Liang said with a thumbs up.
Zhou Zhilong looked at Qiao Liang and chuckled: "County Magistrate Qiao, from what you have experienced, can't you feel the power behind Magistrate Shang? Some people dare to act unscrupulously against you, a temporary cadre from outside. , let alone Secretary Ding? Let’s put it this way, in Liangbei, many people only know that there is a county magistrate and don’t know that there is a secretary. The county magistrate’s words are much more effective than the secretary.”
Qiao Liang frowned: "Don't County Magistrate Zhou think this phenomenon is very abnormal?"
Zhou Zhilong laughed: "What is normal? What is abnormal? These days, strength is the last word. Many times, ability is secondary, and backing is important. With the strong background of County Magistrate Shang, in Liangbei he said Who dares to say two? Unless they don’t want to mess around anymore. In this regard, Secretary Ding’s predecessor is a good example. He has seen through the situation and is very good at taking matters into his own hands. He is willing to be the shadow behind County Magistrate Shang and to highlight County Shang in his work. Commander, won’t this be mentioned in the city soon?”
Qiao Liang was silent in thought.
Zhou Zhilong continued: "As for Secretary Ding, although she did not do what her predecessor did, on many things, I clearly felt that she did not want to confront the county magistrate head-on. This shows that Secretary Ding is quite thoughtful. As for you Brother, on the first day I came to Zhishi Shenqian, I made a big noise. Although I came back after a lot of troubles and joined the team, I want to remind you that County Magistrate Shang is young and energetic, and he is also a vengeful person. Man, you must be careful in the future..."
Qiao Liang nodded: "Thank you for reminding me, I will remember it."
Zhou Zhilong continued: "Of course, in your temporary position, in the eyes of many people, according to past practices, as long as nothing happens during the temporary period and you work well with everyone, you don't need to perform any outstanding achievements. The temporary job is over. After I go back, I can still get good reviews and be promoted smoothly."
Qiao Liang laughed but said nothing.
Zhou Zhilong glanced at Qiao Liang: "Brother, are you coming to Liangbei for a temporary job with the ambition to do something big?"
Qiao Liang laughed again: "Do you think I have the ability to do something big?"
Zhou Zhilong looked at Qiao Liang and blinked: "I don't know if my brother is capable or how capable he is, but I still admire him as a human being. Otherwise, I wouldn't take the initiative to come to you for a drink. Make friends with you."
Qiao Liang said: "In fact, being a person and doing things are often closely related."
"That's right, I agree with what I said." Zhou Zhilong nodded, "It is difficult for a person with bad qualities to do things with heart and truly serve the masses. In this way, with my quality of life, I should still be
If you have a certain ability, you should still be unwilling to be mediocre and inactive during your temporary job period."
Qiao Liang said seriously: "Brother, let's put it this way, I am a person with average abilities. This time, I came with a learning attitude. I want to better improve my level and ability through study and exercise during my temporary job.
, I will try my best to do something tangible and practical for the people of Liangbei. Therefore, I hope to get a lot of care, help and support from my brother at work."
"Okay, that's well said!" Zhou Zhilong clapped his hands, "I sincerely appreciate my brother's attitude. Since I have this idea, from now on, as long as I need what I do, I will spare no effort within the scope of my responsibilities."
Although Zhou Zhilong looked very bold and even though he was drunk, Qiao Liang still felt that his words were measured.
What Zhou Zhilong said seems to be related to his current position and the current subtle situation within the Liangbei team.
This seems to indicate that Zhou Zhilong is a person who is rough but fine, otherwise he would not have worked step by step from the grassroots to his current position.
"Thank you then, brother, I'd like to toast you with this cup." Qiao Liang raised the cup.
"Come on, do it-"
The two clinked glasses and drank together.
On the night they returned to Liangbei, Qiao Liang and Zhou Zhilong drank a bottle of 65-degree strong liquor. Although they felt deeply drunk, their minds remained clear. They were grateful for Zhou Zhilong's enthusiasm and kindness, and were grateful to him.
The impression is also better.
After breakfast the next day, Qiao Liang walked to the office area. The county *** meeting was to be held at 9 a.m. today.
This is the first time Qiao Liang has participated in such a meeting, and he is participating in a new capacity.
This made Qiao Liang feel fresh, stimulating and excited.
Of course, amidst the freshness, excitement and excitement, thinking of Shang Ke, thinking of Ding Xiaoyun’s reminder to him yesterday afternoon, and thinking of what Zhou Zhilong said to him last night, Qiao Liang’s brain still remained clear enough, and he still had enough in his heart.
of caution and caution.
After entering the office building, Qiao Liang went directly to the big office, where his desk was.
Entering the big office, the staff saw Qiao Liang and stood up to say hello. Qiao Liang smiled friendly and cordially at everyone, and then walked towards his desk.
After taking just two steps, Qiao Liang stopped and his desk disappeared.
Qiao Liang was startled. Damn it, if you want to read faster, pay attention to an important reminder from your brother 1291... Where is my desk? Could it be that Shang Ke was so angry at the return of a member of his team that he was not even here?
You are not allowed to work here, so you arrange for someone to move your desk out and throw it away?
Thinking of this, Qiao Liang suddenly became angry.
At this time, the director of the government office came in and said cheerfully to Qiao Liang: "County Magistrate Qiao, you no longer work here."
"Then where should I work?" Qiao Liang looked at the director of the government office and asked calmly.
"According to the instructions of County Magistrate Shang, as the office is very tight, an office has been specially set aside for you, right next to Magistrate Zhou. I will take you there now..." the director of the government office said enthusiastically.
"Oh..." Qiao Liang nodded. What did Shang Ke mean by doing this? Did he suddenly wake up? Or did he get advice from someone?
