Jin Kaige remembered what Liang Jian said that Yu Yue was called by Secretary Hu because someone from the Municipal Party Committee's Organization Department came. He said, "I heard a little bit, and they said they came at noon." Ke Xu said, "It seems that your news is also there.
Very cool. Do you know why they came?" Jin Kaige shook his head: "I don't know." Ke Xu said: "It's about quitting for me."
When Ke Xu said this, Jin Kaige was stunned. Ke Xu was about to retreat so soon! Why was there no movement beforehand? Jin Kaige said: "No way? The Municipal Party Committee Organization Department has already talked to you?" Ke Xu said: "Not yet.
We haven't talked about it yet. You will talk to me soon in the afternoon. I want to find you before we talk so that you can have an idea." Jin Kaige said: "How could it be so soon? There was no warning in advance?" Ke Xu said.
: "The central government issued a standardized retirement document, and all county-level cadres will retire at the age of 57."
Jin Kaige thought that this was a document stipulated by the central government, and it must be true, but he was not mentally prepared for it at all. He asked: "Then, how will the city arrange your work?" Ke Xu said: "Basically,
I will be asked to return to the CPPCC and serve as a full researcher."
Jin Kaige was speechless. He just felt confused. It was Ke Xu who promoted his appointment as the mayor of Shimian Town. At that time, he thought that Ke Xu would at least finish his term.
Chairman, as long as Ke Xu is here, this possibility is still very high. But now, Ke Xu is no longer the chairman of the CPPCC, but he is still in the township, which means he has become a "left-behind child" with no one
No matter what, no one cares about it, so it’s hard not to worry about it.
Ke Xu saw Jin Kaige's worries and said, "So, I said that many things are really not as good as God's. As soon as I leave the district CPPCC, it will be less easy for me to interfere in your affairs. From this point of view,
I really feel a little sorry for you."
At this point, Jin Kaige can't complain. As usual, Ke Xu's unexpected early resignation must have been very hard on his mind. But at this time, Ke Xu was still concerned about his own feelings and asked him to talk to him before organizing a conversation.
Let me tell you first. This also shows that Ke Xu has been extremely kind to him.
Jin Kaige said: "Chairman Ke, don't say that. Without your attention over the years, I wouldn't be what I am now. I'm already very grateful."
Ke Xu wanted to say something else, but his cell phone rang. Ke Xu answered the phone: "Oh, the organization wants to talk to me. Okay, I'll be in the talk room right away." After answering the phone, Ke Xu said to
Jin Kaige said: "I am going to organize a conversation now, and we will have a good chat about your affairs in the future."
Jin Kaige was like a walking zombie during this afternoon. He was a little confused about who he talked to and what he did. When it was time to get off work, Liang Jian came to his office and said, "Mayor Jin, are we leaving yet?"
Kaige asked: "Where are you going?" Liang Jian said: "Didn't you call me this afternoon and ask us to have dinner together in the evening? I called Yu Yue, and you said you would also call someone."
Jin Kaige was really surprised that he didn't quite remember making an appointment to have dinner with someone. It seemed that he did it subconsciously. Jin Kaige asked: "Do you know who I made an appointment with?" Liang Jian said: "I don't know about that.
, you look through your phone, if you made an appointment with someone, there should be a record on your phone." Jin Kaige said: "It's better for you to be smart, let me take a look." On Jin Kaige's phone, he saw that he had called "Yan Ting"
"After making the call, he remembered that he had made an appointment with her.
When Liang Jian and Jin Kaige arrived at the hotel, Yan Ting was already there. It was the first time Liang Jian saw her, and Yan Ting gave him the impression that she was a mature woman, with her charm still intact. She was almost thirty-seven or eighty-years-old.
Although she looks good, her skin is well maintained, her figure is very charming of a mature woman, especially her eyes, which are neither ostentatious nor timid, but very elegant and elegant. Liang Jian is not sure what the relationship between Jin Kaige and Yan Ting is.
Jin Kaige introduced that Yan Ting was a teacher at the Municipal Experimental Middle School and was also his classmate. However, in Liang Jian's view, Jin Kaige was at least five or six years older than Yan Ting. If they were classmates, they could not have been in full-time school.
Yu Yue came a while later. After sitting down, he ordered food and wine.
Yu Yue looked at Jin Kaige and seemed to see the unhappiness on Mayor Jin's face, and said: "Mayor Jin, what are you drinking today?" Jin Kaige said: "Let's drink something white together. You should at least drink
One bottle." Yu Yue said: "Okay, I'm lucky enough to have Mayor Jin treat me to dinner today. I'll drink as much as you drink." Yan Ting said on the side: "I can't do it. I don't drink well." Jin Kaige said: "
Tingting, I keep calling her Tingting, don’t be offended. You don’t have to drink at other times. Can you drink with me today?”
Yan Ting stared at Jin Kaige for a while, seeming to see something interesting, and she said readily: "Okay."
Only then did a smile appear on Jin Kaige's face. Liang Jian did not shy away and said: "Teacher Yan, look, this is the first smile that our Mayor Jin has shown since this afternoon." Yu Yue said: "Teacher Yan is the best.
." Jin Kaige laughed out loud at this moment: "You two work together, be careful when you drink later, or we won't overpower you!"
This night, although there were only four people, drinking became a competition, and everyone drank a lot. After drinking, everyone did not go to activities, but was sent home one by one by the driver.
Liang Jian woke up in the middle of the night and felt so uncomfortable that he went to the bathroom to vomit once before returning to bed.
Looking at the ceiling, the text message on his phone rang, and he saw it was a text message from Yu Yue: "I was drunk and just vomited." Liang Jian replied: "Me too, just came back from the bathroom." Yu Yue replied: "
Today we both risked our lives to accompany the gentleman." Liang Jian said: "Yes, Chinese people rely on wine to relieve their sorrows. We have shed our sorrows for Mayor Jin." Jin Yue replied: "We use wine to relieve our sorrows and make our sorrows worse.
, I think Mayor Jin has to rely on himself in the end if he wants to be free from worries. He can no longer be a 'useless' mayor." Liang Jian said: "You have hit the point."
The two sent text messages for a while, and Liang Jian fell asleep unknowingly.
The Spring Festival is approaching day by day. More and more people come to the town to beg for money. In a town, there are not only some urban construction projects to build roads and bridges, but also agricultural projects to dredge and build banks, and there are also party and mass publicity projects.
The advertised projects included various company CEOs, contract foremen, village secretaries, and even migrant workers who were instigated by the foremen to ask for wages... Townships have always had a large funding gap, and it became even worse at the end of the year. Liang Jian thought about it.
I feel that Jin Kaige must have been very worried these days.
However, the strange thing is that Jin Kaige did not lose his position.
Ever since Liang Jian, Yu Yue, Jin Kaige, and Yan Ting had dinner that day, Jin Kaige seemed to have changed. He dressed appropriately and formally every day when he went to work, giving the impression that he was very organized and elegant.
Also very confident.
Although his office was crowded with people asking for money every day from morning to three in the afternoon, he did not show too much impatience. Instead, he was friendly to those people and practiced Tai Chi calmly. He always said
: "Before the New Year, I will give you part of the money so that you will not go hungry during the New Year, but you must give me time." The visitor did not think so, "Mayor Jin, we believe what you said and we can wait.
, but the migrant workers below me who are going home for the Spring Festival can't wait." Jin Kaige still explained to them unhurriedly, "Please believe me, go to other towns and see how many mayors are working with us here.
You have made such good promises, but perhaps many of the mayors will be nowhere to be found at this time of year. At least I am still here, just to tell you that I will be responsible..."
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, he began to issue eviction orders. He said: "If you keep blocking here, I won't have time to deal with the money. If I don't have time to deal with it, it means you won't get the money before the holiday. If you are stuck here,
You make your own choice between here and getting the money. If you still want to get the money, then please leave voluntarily after three o'clock every afternoon." Seeing his sincerity, those people left "reluctantly"
.
Jin Kaige closed the door and thought about the problem alone. Liang Jian wanted to knock on the door many times and ask if he needed help, but after thinking about it, maybe Jin Kaige needed some time alone. Liang Jian felt that Jin Kaige needed some time alone.
Changes are taking place.
Zhao Gong of Zhao's Demolition Company is the biggest beneficiary of the demolition project. He won the bid with a bid price of 4.5 million yuan, and later added an additional 500,000 yuan with the support of Zhong Tao. However, due to the town's settlement, it has always been an advance payment, and then intermediate payments.
One payment, and another payment after the project is completed, and the full settlement will be completed one and a half years after the completion of the project. According to this payment method, Zhao Gong currently only gets a fraction. Because he became rich overnight, Zhao Gong's money is like running water.
, at the end of the year, the wages of migrant workers had to be paid, the festivals had to be celebrated in a beautiful way, and Zhong Tao and other leaders also had to take care of things. Now he came to Zhong Tao's office. After sitting down, Zhao Gong got straight to the point: "Secretary Zhong, again
Give me some money so that I can survive this year."
Zhong Tao said: "Then you report it according to the normal procedure." Zhao Gong said: "Secretary Zhong, the normal procedure cannot be followed. I also know that people who want money in the past two days have crossed the threshold of the town government. Who has anything to do with it?
I know who gets the money, that's all." Zhong Tao said: "The mayor is in charge of the money. It's not good for me to always intervene with Jin Kaige." Zhao Gong handed over another envelope.
There are 20,000 yuan in it. Zhao Gong said: "Brother, I won't call you secretary. It's Chinese New Year, so you must help me with this. I know that when Jin Kaige meets you, he meets the cat like a mouse. You
Say one, does he dare to say two?"
Zhong Tao thought about the previous things, and there was no one where he had not managed Jin Kaige to be docile. He was also proud of this. He took the envelope and threw it into the drawer: "You go back and wait.
Okay, just for these few days, I will ask the finance department to put your money first."
On the fourth day before the Spring Festival, Jin Kaige asked Liang Jian to go to his office. It was already around four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was snowing outside.
When Liang Jian entered, Jin Kaige had already poured a cup of tea for Liang Jian. Liang Jian asked: "Mayor Jin, why did you come to see me today?" Jin Kaige smiled and took out a pack of cigarettes, which was a pack of Su cigarettes.
, handed one to Liang Jian, and took one himself: "Actually, this is my favorite cigarette. It's very soft and has a good taste. I asked a friend to bring this back from Nanjing." Liang Jian took the cigarette point.
Yes, it tasted good, but he didn't forget to ask Jin Kaige why he came to him: "Mayor Jin came to see me today, he shouldn't be tasting cigarettes with me, right?"
