Suddenly remembering something, she hurriedly turned back to Xia Lan's room, "Xia Lan, please help me take care of the child these days. Thank you. The child is my only concern, and my mother is always there
She is worried about him, and now she is so worried that she falls ill in bed. Xia Lan, please."
After saying that, I bowed deeply to her and left again.
In fact, I did this not only to ask her to take good care of my child, but also to urge her to urge Lin Yi to bring my child back to Jiangnan. In the end, I still don’t trust Lin Yi because the child treats me very badly.
and my family are so important.
Xia Lan should understand what I mean, and I believe she will do this well for me.
In fact, each of us has a lot of helplessness, and there are many things that we don’t really want to do. For me, children’s matters are more important than anything else, so I had to use Xia Lan once. So I
After saying those words to her, I left immediately because I didn't dare to look her in the eyes.
There is a kind of shame in my heart.
There are taxis parked outside the hotel, but they asked not to use the meter. After I negotiated the price, I went directly to the airport. The taxis here are ripping off customers, but now I don’t want to argue with them because I just
I want to leave this place quickly.
On the way to the airport, I called my driver Xiao Cui and asked him to pick me up directly at the Jiangnan Province Airport.
I want to go directly to Shangjiang City tonight because I don't dare to face my mother. After all, I haven't really found the child yet.
In addition, I have been away from work for several days, and I have to go back and catch up on work matters as soon as possible. This is actually a kind of helplessness: even if I don’t want to do it anymore, I have to keep working, and I have to keep doing it well.
Even those people whom you least want to interact with still have to continue to interact, and you must do so politely.
On the way to the airport, I stared blankly at the night view of the city outside the car window, and I could clearly feel its beauty and prosperity. This is a tourist city, and I have been here before. I know, in fact, here
The city at night is the same as our Jiangnan provincial capital, with romance and warmth, and there may also be a lot of evil going on. The beauty and prosperity of the city are just like the clothes on a person's body, it is just an appearance.
After arriving at the airport, I suddenly felt hungry and suddenly remembered that I had not eaten since arriving in Sanya.
After the security check, I entered the terminal building and suddenly found a place to eat. I hurried in. The waiter greeted me warmly, "Sir, what would you like to drink?"
I was already hungry, "Is there anything to eat?"
She replied: "There are beef noodles and set rice."
I looked at the time and said, "Beef noodles."
The waiter agreed and was about to leave. I suddenly remembered that I had eaten at the airport and it was very expensive, so I asked, "How much does a bowl cost?"
The waiter replied: "One hundred and twenty-eight."
I was immediately shocked by her words, "It's so expensive! The last time I ate beef noodles at another airport, it was only seventy-eight."
The waiter immediately said something that left me speechless, "Sir, this is Sanya!"
But I am indeed too hungry. No matter how expensive it is, I have to eat something first. This is just like when you need to drink water in the desert, and a bottle of mineral water costs 100,000 yuan, you still have to spend money to buy it.
This is actually a kind of monopoly. The core of a monopoly is to force higher prices with less quantity.
In fact, why isn’t our current officialdom a monopoly? Who gets what position, and when they can be promoted. These are all matters that can be decided directly by those few people. They don’t have to care about other people’s ideas and suggestions at all.
.In the final analysis, this is a monopoly on power.
But people under this monopoly system can only obey obediently. Just like me at this moment, although more than a hundred dollars is nothing to me, I still feel heartache. This is because of this bowl
The difference between the cost and price of noodles is too big. Because of this, even high-ranking leaders like Governor Huang still often feel helpless.
I was just thinking about it when the noodles came. I found that there wasn't much in them, there were just a few small chunks of beef, and it wasn't exactly beef. After taking a bite, the taste was very average. You know, I'm in a state now.
A state of extreme hunger.
I ate up this bowl of noodles, and even drank the soup in it. I felt sorry for the money, and I was also angry. But after eating, I suddenly felt uncomfortable. The taste of the noodles and the noodle soup was really too good.
Poor. I burst into tears and laughed: Why is this so bothersome?
In fact, everyone is like this. When we are angry with others, we often suffer the consequences. When we are angry at others, we end up hurting ourselves.
I fell asleep immediately after the plane took off. My heart has been too tired these past few days.
Xiao Cui was waiting for me at the airport. After he picked me up, we went directly to Shangjiang City.
I went back and took a shower, and was about to go to bed, but suddenly I felt a little hungry, so I went out and went downstairs to find something to eat. After walking for a while, I found a snack stall on the side of the road. It was almost midnight, and the snack stall was deserted.
But the pot was steaming hot.
I sat down there and ordered a bowl of wontons and a bowl of glutinous glutinous rice balls. Then I asked the owner of the food stall: "It's so late, why are you still here? There will be other people coming to eat at this time.
?"
The owner of this food stall is a middle-aged man in his forties, a little thin, and honest-looking. He answered me: "In the evening, taxi drivers and people after playing cards come to eat. I usually ask
The stall doesn’t close until three o’clock in the evening.”
I asked: "How much money can you make in a day?"
He replied: "You can't make much. A hundred yuan a day would be a good profit. I don't dare to set up a stall during the day. The urban management is too fierce now. If they see it, they will confiscate everything immediately. If we say a few words, they will still
I know how to beat people, so I have to sell some at night."
I frowned immediately. Then I asked, "What do you do? Don't you work during the day?"
He replied: "I work in a factory and have nothing to do at all. My child is about to take the college entrance examination and his grades are very good. I have to earn some money for him to go to college. My life is over. All my hopes are on my child.
.It’s worth the hardship.”
I nodded and couldn't help but sigh in my heart: the people at the bottom of the class are really having a hard time. Many of them are running around and working hard just to survive. But they are still full of hope in their hearts: for their children.
Wontons and glutinous glutinous rice balls were served on the table, and our brief conversation ended. As I was eating, I was thinking: Once the company is restructured, many workers will definitely be laid off. This is an inevitable result of the Japanese control.
So I couldn't help but think of a question: How to resettle those laid-off workers in the future?
After returning home, I kept thinking about this issue while lying in bed, and then I suddenly had an idea.
The first thing I did after going to work the next day was to go to Mayor Liu's office. But he just asked me lightly: "You're back?"
I suddenly felt a little unhappy: something big happened in my family. As my superior, you should always care about me, right? Then I thought that he might be in a bad mood. So I said to him: "Liu Shi
Commander, we have to prepare for the signing ceremony as soon as possible recently. All aspects of personnel, venue and reception must be prepared in advance."
He looked at me and said, "Mayor Feng, since you are back, please take charge of this matter. The government office is under your control. You just need to negotiate with them."
I hurriedly said: "This matter cannot be handled by the municipal government office alone. All departments must cooperate together. You are the mayor, and you can hold a meeting on this matter so that the people below will pay more attention to it."
He said impatiently: "I don't think this is a big deal. What we have to do now is all the problems that may arise after cooperation with Japan in the future. We have to study such things in advance."
I said: "That is of course the most important thing. But after all, the signing is a big deal for our city and even the whole province. It is a matter of honor."
But he still said indifferently: "You are the executive deputy mayor. You can organize such a thing well. Just go ahead and do it."
I felt more and more that his mood was a little abnormal, so I asked him tentatively: "Mayor Liu, is there something I haven't done well? Can you tell me?"
He smiled immediately, but the smile on his face seemed a little stiff, "Why do you think that way? Mayor Feng, you are excellent, and I am completely confident in your work."
I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart, "Okay. I'll go and arrange it right away. But Mayor Liu, I want to ask Secretary Chen for permission on this matter first. What do you think?"
He said calmly: "Of course. You can just report to him directly."
In fact, what I just said was to test him. I think his current mood may have something to do with Secretary Chen. From his answer to me, I immediately felt: my guess may be correct.
But think about it, as the mayor of a prefecture-level city, he can basically be said to be a puppet. He can't make the decision in anything, and he must be angry. But he can only bear it silently, because he has the leverage to control Chen.
In the secretary's hand.
In fact, people are like this. When he was the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, he always wanted to be the leader one day, but when he actually reached such a position, he realized that the power in his hands was not as good as before. This is the so-called hope of becoming more powerful.
The greater the disappointment, the greater the disappointment.
But I am also very embarrassed, because now my identity is also very embarrassing. On the one hand, I have to be responsible for my work to Mayor Liu, and on the other hand, I have to face Secretary Chen. This relationship of superiority and inferiority in the officialdom is absolutely
cannot be ignored.
Whatever he wants, that's all I can do anyway. I sighed in my heart.
After leaving his office, I immediately called Secretary Chen's secretary, "Is Secretary Chen free now? I want to report to him about my work."
After a while, his secretary replied to me, "Secretary Chen, please come over right away."
When I arrived at Secretary Chen's office, he warmly asked me to sit down, and then asked me with concern: "How is the child? Have you found it?"
At this moment, my heart suddenly felt warm. (To be continued)
