Du Fei smiled and said, "It's so sweet. I'll let that kid go to work after the Chinese New Year."
Xu Damao chuckled and said, "Just watch it! I've already said hello to the Transportation Department, so I have to comb and comb the grandson."
Du Fei smiled, but didn't take it too seriously, and then asked, "Brother Mao, when will you be able to finish your work?"
Xu Damao became even more excited when he mentioned this, "It's coming soon, Deputy Director Li said, we can be here as soon as the year before."
Du Fei said, "Then you have to strengthen your studies, transfer to cadre status, and be promoted to deputy section chief. In the future, you will no longer be an ordinary member of the public. You must actively demand progress."
Xu Damao scratched his head and said with a smile, "That's it, that's it."
Du Fei asked again, "By the way, Brother Mao, have you joined the party?"
Xu Damao was stunned for a moment and shook his head.
Du Fei said, "Hurry up and write an application after the New Year, and ask your section chief to be your introducer."
Xu Damao's eyes rolled, and he had an idea and said, "Hey, brother, what do you think... I just hand the application form directly to Deputy Director Li?"
Du Fei glanced at Xu Damao expressionlessly and said calmly, "Brother Mao, you haven't become the deputy section chief yet, do you already look down on your section chief?"
Xu Damao smiled coquettishly, acquiescing to his inner thoughts.
Du Fei was not too surprised. He had known that Xu Damao was frivolous and easily got carried away. He said calmly, "Then do you think Deputy Director Li will accept your application?"
"This...should be possible, right?" Xu Damao looked at Du Fei in his eyes. He originally thought it was natural, but he was a little unsure.
Du Fei said, "If you ask me, he will definitely not accept it, and will take the opportunity to beat you hard."
Xu Damao licked his lips, frowned and said, "This... we just gave it to him..."
He said holding out two fingers.
Of course Du Fei understood what he wanted to express. He stretched out his hand and pressed his two fingers back and said, "Brother Mao, this is the problem! Did you think that I gave you two large yellow croakers? Deputy Factory Director Li gave them to you."
Doing things is a matter of course?”
Xu Damao grinned and said nothing, but his thoughts were already written on his pig kidney face.
Du Fei sneered, "You~ still haven't figured it out yet. Do you know "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?"
Xu Damao nodded quickly, "I've heard of storytelling."
Du Fei said, "There is Xu You inside, how did he die?"
Xu Damao tried his best to recall, and muttered uncertainly, "Is there such a person in the Guandu Battle?"
"I also know about the Battle of Guandu. It seems that the storytelling was not in vain!" Du Fei said with a smile, and did not continue to talk about it. "Xu You was originally a counselor under Yuan Shao's account. During the Battle of Guandu, he deserted Yuan Shao and joined Cao Cao.
His subordinates offered advice to help Cao Cao, sneak attack on Yuan Shao's grain road, and win the battle of Guandu. Isn't this a great achievement? Isn't it better than how many gifts you send? Cao Cao was also very grateful to him, but Xu You relied on his high achievements and always
He keeps this matter on his lips, and when he meets people, he says that Cao Cao's success depends on Xu You. If you were Cao Cao, wouldn't you be annoyed by this person?"
Xu Damao nodded blankly.
Du Fei patted him on the shoulder and said, "So, later Cao Cao found an excuse and killed Xu You."
Xu Damao subconsciously shrank his neck and realized his problem.
Du Fei said, "Brother Mao, the same principle applies to giving gifts. After you give something away, you have to forget about it and just pretend it didn't happen. Don't always think about what you gave. Think more about it." Send something back. Leaders know it well and will never forget you at critical times."
Xu Damao licked his lips and unknowingly there was a layer of sweat on his forehead.
He was not bold in the first place, but when Du Fei said this, he understood that he had violated a taboo, and he couldn't help but regret it.
Seeing him like this, Du Fei secretly laughed in his heart, took a sip of tea, and then continued, "Also, even in the office, you must abide by the rules at all times, follow the steps, and you cannot skip levels. If you think you have a good relationship with Deputy Factory Director Li, just
If you cross your section chief, you are not following the rules. Not only is your section chief upset, but Deputy Factory Director Li may not be happy either, because you are causing him trouble."
Xu Damao swallowed and turned pale. He looked at Du Fei and smiled as if he was crying, "No~ I didn't know there were so many details!"
Du Fei said, "If you don't know, just learn slowly. Why throughout the ages, officials have to study first..."
More than ten minutes later.
Xu Damao returned home with a frown on his face. As soon as he entered the room, he sighed and sat down on the chair.
Lou Xiao'e was surprised. She was in high spirits when she left, but why did she come back like an eggplant beaten by frost?
But before she could ask, Xu Damao sighed and said, "Ezi, tell me, am I not the material to be a leader at all?"
Lou Xiao'e asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you? What did Xiao Du tell you?"
Xu Damao listlessly repeated what Du Fei had just told him, and finally said with emotion, "You said, I'm almost thirty, how come I can't even understand this bit of human nature? And let Xiao Du'er take the lead.
of."
After hearing this, Lou Xiao'e laughed and said, "Hey, what do I mean?"
Xu Damao was a little unhappy, "No, Ezi, I'm like this, how can you still laugh?"
Lou Xiao'e walked over and said, "Let me tell you, you don't know how to be blessed despite being blessed! Do you think Du Fei is an ordinary person? What are those girls and boys of his age doing now?"
Xu Damao thinks about it too.
Not to mention Yan Jiefang, Liu Guangtian, even Yan Jiecheng is two or three years older than Du Fei, and there is no comparison with Du Fei.
Lou Xiao'e continued, "Let me tell you, after my dad met Du Fei last time, he spoke very highly of him!"
Xu Damao turned his eyes left and right in thought.
Lou Xiao'e continued, "If you think about it carefully, what a blessing it is to have someone like Xiao Du who can give you a click at a critical moment and save you from many detours? You still feel sorry for yourself."
Xu Damao blinked his eyes, his worry turned into joy, he patted his thigh, held Lou Xiao'e's hand with his backhand and said, "Yes! Wife, it has to be you, why didn't I think of it!"
"What a fool~" Lou Xiao'e squeaked, and then said seriously, "Last time I went back, my mother told me to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and never be too eager for quick success! You have to remember this."
Xu Damao curled his lips and snorted softly.
Lou Xiao'e glared at him and said, "Don't be unconvinced! You know why our parents were never willing to use their connections to help you?"
Xu Damao became more energetic. He had always wanted to know and asked quickly, "Why?"
Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes at him and said, "Our dad said that you are smart, but you are frivolous, your willpower is not strong enough, and you are not ruthless. You often respond when things get tough. You are not suitable for an official career at all."
When Xu Damao heard this, he felt a little quit, but when he opened his mouth, he realized that what his father-in-law said... was so right! Du Fei smiled and said, "It's a good idea. I'll let that kid go to work after the Chinese New Year."
Xu Damao chuckled and said, "Just watch it! I've already said hello to the Transportation Department, so I have to comb and comb the grandson."
