Su Wen contacted Mayor Zhu about the work, so of course I had to ask her. In fact, I also wanted to immediately divert the intention of Mayor Liu's words.
Mayor Zhu smiled and said: "It's really good. She is very aggressive in her work, but she is also very careful."
Mayor Liu smiled and said: "What I said is completely different from what you said. Mayor Feng is currently single, and so is Xiao Su. I'm thinking, in fact, you two are quite suitable. Mayor Feng, as long as you
Nod, I will do Xiao Su's work for you. How about it?"
I didn't expect that he would suddenly tell me such a thing, and it seemed that he was not joking. I hurriedly said: "Mayor Liu, don't make such a joke. I have been married twice.
I am married and have children, and I have no plans to get married again. I am now afraid of getting married, and feel that getting married is harmful to others."
Mayor Zhu looked at me in surprise, "Why do you say that?"
The other people were looking at me, and I immediately felt that I had said too much, but I had already said it here, so I could only continue, "My two previous wives have passed away. If I get married again,
Isn’t it harmful to others?”
Mayor Liu smiled and said: "I didn't expect Mayor Feng to be so superstitious. Birth, old age, illness and death are natural laws. Each of us will have that day sooner or later. You are still so young and your child is still very small. You should think about marriage again.
Question. You are married and have children. This is not a problem. The key is that you are very good. A diamond king like you likes a lot of women. I said, as long as you nod, the rest will be done.
I'll go talk to her. How about it?"
Just when I didn't know what to say, Mayor Zhu spoke, "Mayor Liu, Mayor Feng has said that he doesn't want to consider such things for the time being, which shows that he has his own difficulties. He is so good, but he still has worries.
Can't you find a wife? You worry for nothing. Haha! Right, Mayor Feng?"
I was immediately grateful to her in my heart. It wasn’t that I couldn’t explain some things to Mayor Liu, but that I couldn’t say too much on such an occasion, and what I just said was enough. Under such circumstances
It would be best for Mayor Zhu to step in and block it for me. After all, she is a lesbian, not to mention that Su Wen is the deputy secretary-general who contacted her, so she has the most say among the people here.
After hearing what Mayor Zhu said, Mayor Liu smiled and said: "That's true. Why do you think I, a grown-up man, suddenly thought of being a matchmaker for others?"
Everyone laughed. The embarrassment was resolved in this way.
But I immediately thought in my heart: Why does Mayor Zhu want to speak for me? Does she know about Zhu Dan and me?
That should be the case. After all, she and Zhu Dan are relatives. She should have been aware of such a thing, not to mention that Zhu Dan would probably tell her about it. Thinking of this, I suddenly felt upset.
After lunch, I returned to the office. Recently, I rarely go back to my residence to rest at noon because I have too many things on hand, and no one usually disturbs me at noon. I can use this time to take a look.
Documents that require my approval. Approving documents is a very troublesome thing. It is not just a matter of just drawing a circle on it or writing the word "agree" in two fluttering words. Especially the area I am in charge of.
, all involve financial, financial, and taxation issues, and many problems require careful thinking and solutions. The problem I often face is: money is needed everywhere, but there is only so much money in our financial accounts.
To raise funds, I need to find ways to arrange and carry out fund operations. As Secretary Chen once said, what I do is actually the work of a housekeeper.
The two sessions after the new year cost a lot of money. The National People's Congress meeting cost more than three million, which included regular conference fees, as well as food and accommodation for all the National People's Congress deputies. To be honest, this expense made me feel heartbroken -
- A meeting of hundreds of people, but many issues fell into a formality. But there is nothing we can do about it. This is a very important political life in our country, and its significance should not be calculated in terms of money.
But what I didn't expect was that the CPPCC meeting also cost a lot. The chairman of the CPPCC came to find me specially and said to me: "This meeting of the National People's Congress was very successful. The government's financial guarantee is
The key point is that our CPPCC meeting also hopes that Mayor Feng can guarantee enough funds for us. We don’t want to compare with the National People’s Congress. Two million must be guaranteed, right?”
He is an old comrade and leader in the city, and his rank is higher than mine. He came to my office in person. What else can I say? What's more, Secretary Chen also emphasized it in the previous Standing Committee meeting.
The government is required to ensure the expenses and all logistical work for the two sessions.
Five million dollars are just gone.
Nowadays, the city's reform has just begun, many projects have just been launched, and the increase in municipal fiscal revenue has not been reflected at all. For me, the executive deputy mayor, I really feel that it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.
But no one understands me, whether it’s the leader or the lower departments. When they see me, they just ask me for money. Sometimes I feel very annoyed and want to get angry at them: Money?! Am I a machine that prints money?
Of course, I won't do that. I have to say to them with a smile and a gentle attitude, "I can't help it. There is no money in the account. What should I do? Wait, it will be fine after this period of time."
.I will slowly think of ways to arrange it."
But this cannot be the case for some departments. For example, at the municipal party committee's general office, if they ask for money anytime, I have to find a way to transfer it to them immediately, because behind them is the municipal party committee. I guarantee that the municipal party committee's office funds and all other expenses are mine.
First job.
I once heard a person outside the Party say something: There is no country in the world like a socialist country where political parties need taxpayers to support them. Although this sentence is somewhat reactionary, it also seems to exclude the leadership of the Party.
But I think there are still some problems here. So sometimes I think: There are tens of millions of party members in our country. Can't these party members of ours support their own party?
Later, I felt that my idea was too ridiculous. In our political system, the party's leadership of everything is fundamental, and all systems are created on this basis, and they must not be completely separated.
In our country, the political party is no longer a simple political party. It is the ruler and the main body of the state machine. The agencies at all levels under the political party are the highest local authorities. Therefore, the secretary, deputy secretary, etc. are not just
It is a position in a political party affiliated organization, but more of a real profession, a profession that enjoys the treatment of national civil servants.
On this day, I had just returned to the office and had just gone to look at the report from the Municipal Local Taxation Bureau. When I was about to study the problems, Mayor Zhu came.
After she came in, she smiled and said to me: "Mayor Feng, I didn't expect you to be so diligent. You don't even take a break at noon?"
I had no choice but to push the report aside, and then said to her with a wry smile: "This executive deputy mayor is not a human job. There is no way. You all ask me for money, I have to find a way to solve it as much as possible, right? Otherwise
If so, wouldn’t you scold me behind my back for being incompetent?”
She immediately laughed, "I never scolded you? I know it's difficult for you. But only you can do such a job. If you let me do it, I will definitely resign immediately."
I couldn't help but laugh and said: "Mayor Zhu, please don't say that. The earth will continue to rotate even if it is separated from anyone. I am not the first executive deputy mayor of Shangjiang City. It was more difficult before."
While talking, I stood up, then asked her to sit down in the reception area, and then went to make her a cup of tea myself.
I knew that she must have something important to come to me at this time. Then I sat across from her, looked at her and smiled slightly, "Mayor Zhu, are you okay?"
But she shook her head and said: "It's nothing special. I just want to have a casual chat with you. I hope it doesn't affect your diligence."
I laughed and said, "Why do I think you are criticizing me? I am too stupid, so I have to spend more time to do my own things well. Where is the diligence in this?"
She smiled and said: "You are too humble, Mayor Feng... Haha! I won't beat around the bush with you. I'm here to ask you. I heard that you and Zhu Dan are in a relationship, right? How are you?
What do you think of her?"
Although I had already expected that she might know what happened between me and Zhu Dan, when she suddenly asked me directly, I was still secretly surprised and nervous. I hurriedly asked her: "Zhu Dan"
Mayor, where did you get the news?"
Me asking her this does not mean that I admit the matter, because it is true that Zhu Dan and I are dating, but falling in love... at least I don't think so. (To be continued)
