Lu Yiwei was drunk in the afternoon and was sleeping soundly when Niu Fuyong called and urged, "Why aren't you here yet? I'm waiting for you."
Lu Yiwei opened his eyes and looked at his watch. He let out a long sigh and said, "It's only 5 o 'clock now. What's the rush?"
"It's still early. Our brothers are here. Hurry up." Niu Fuyong said cheerfully, "Remember to bring your sister-in-law tonight."
Lu Yiwei had no choice but to force himself to get out of bed. There was no one in the living room. He went to the bathroom to wash his face and lay on the sofa in a daze. He picked up his phone and called Fan Chunfang. "Where are you?"
"I'm back at my house. Are you awake?"
"Yes, I just woke up. Where are my parents?"
"They went to Lingzi's house. I'll have dinner at her house tonight. Don't worry about it."
"Oh." Lu Yiwei said, "I'll pick you up later. Fuyong called for dinner."
Fan Chunfang hesitated for a while and said, "Alright then. Oh right, my dad is looking for you. Come over now. "
Lu Yiwei drank a glass of water to sober up and went downstairs with his car keys. If this was during normal times, Li Ermao could drive him. He could only drive himself during the New Year.
When he arrived at Fan Rongkui's house, his mother-in-law, Sun Chunyun, was packing up. The house was filled with smoke and footprints were messy on the floor. There were a few thick red packets on the coffee table. A group of people must have just been sent away. During the Lunar New Year, the leader's house was especially busy. There were countless people coming in and out of the house. Some of them had not even met each other before carrying their things. After putting down their things or saying a few polite words, they left to make time for the people behind them.
Fan Rongkui had taken a big step from the Deputy Director of the Ministry of Health to the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of West Region. The people he interacted with were naturally different. In the past, they were all within the system. Now, it was different. They were in charge of nearly a million people. There were tens of thousands of leaders of all levels in the city. Such a huge number could not be mentioned in the same breath.
During the New Year, the leaders of all levels had a headache and were miserable. If he didn't pay them a visit, it would seem like he didn't know how to adapt to circumstances. But if he did, he would have to go up one level at a time, and it wouldn't look good if he left anyone behind. The leaders might not remember who had come, but they would definitely remember who hadn't.
Some people simply came to pay their New Year greetings, while others took the opportunity to run away. Normally, he could avoid her, but he couldn't possibly chase her out during the New Year. Furthermore, one might not be able to knock on the door to give gifts normally, but during the New Year, one could openly come to the door with gifts. Therefore, when it came to accepting gifts, every leader had a discerning eye. Anything that exceeded their expectations would not be accepted.
Now that Lu Yiwei had taken another small step forward and became the true leader of the administrative committee, there were naturally many people who came to visit him for the new year. However, compared to Fan Rongkui's scene, it was clearly not on the same level.
Lu Yiwei also had to go out to pay his New Year's greetings. However, he had already paid his respects before the New Year, so it was relatively easier after the New Year. Interestingly, when he was paying Zhang Zhiyuan a New Year greeting, he was thrown out before he could even take out anything. Their relationship had already surpassed the relationship of a superior and subordinate. Using money to measure it would be a little too distant.
Seeing that Lu Yiwei had arrived, Fan Rongkui got up and said, "Come in with me."
Fan Rongkui was much fatter than before, and his waist was much fatter than before. It seemed that there was a big difference between a deputy and a main position. Entering the study, a dazzling array of high-grade tobacco, alcohol and tonics were piled up in the corner.
After Fan Rongkui sat down, he said, "Yiwei, last time when I was in trouble, you looked for Zhong Ming's aunt?"
"Yes." Lu Yiwei nodded. "It was mainly because of his uncle, who works in the garrison."
"Oh." Fan Rongkui said thoughtfully, "She helped me so much and you didn't thank her. Go back and tell Zhong Ming that if possible, I would like to pay a visit."
"This …" Lu Yiwei said, "Dad, I think it's better not to. The last time we met, I couldn't even enter the courtyard. Zhong Ming went in alone. Later I also mentioned to Zhong Ming to thank him, but Zhong Ming said no need. "
"Oh." Fan Rongkui said, "I couldn't bear it. If it wasn't for her, I would have died."
Lu Yiwei comforted him, "It's all over, you don't have to feel guilty. For her, it was just a matter of a word, and she has long forgotten about it. This kind of relationship can only be used once in a lifetime. Zhong Ming's father may not even get to see her. "
"Oh, that's fine." Fan Rongkui said, "Then go and see Zhong Ming's father. We can't forget this courtesy."
"Okay." The reason why Fan Rongkui said this was mainly because Zhong Ming's father's rank was not high enough. A dignified leading cadre would not lower himself to pay a New Year visit to a county or division level leader. Letting Lu Yiwei do it on his behalf, treating him as a junior, and adding on the family relationship, it was much more appropriate than him personally doing it.
Fan Rongkui said again, "Ever since Heishan County developed a quartz mine, Zhang Dongzi attracted a state-owned enterprise to jointly invest, with a total investment of more than 500 million, mainly in the production of aviation materials and new energy. This state-owned enterprise has a military background, it should be Zhang Dongzi's father's relationship. So this year I plan to focus on developing Heishan County, do you have any suggestions? "
Lu Yiwei had stayed in Heishan County for more than a year, and was more familiar with the local situation. "You mean the personnel?"
"Yes." Fan Rongkui nodded, "Heishan County has been well managed in your hands, but there are still many problems. The first is the problem of public security, it is quite chaotic. Therefore, we have to choose someone who can control the situation. "
Lu Yiwei thought for a moment, "I think the current County Magistrate Wu Shixun is good. Although he is a little old, at least there will not be any deviation in the execution. In addition, I suggest that we re-use the dismissed Song Defu. He was originally the Deputy Secretary of the County party committee, but he was dismissed because of me. Using him is not out of personal feelings, but because his prestige in Heishan County is quite high, it should be said that he is the local spiritual leader. If we let him take command, Heishan County will absolutely not be in chaos. "
"Song Defu?" Fan Rongkui muttered this name, "Then, between Song Defu and Wu Shixun, who do you think is more daring?"
Lu Yiwei said, "Song Defu is from Heishan County, a person of virtue and prestige, capable and capable. Wu Shixun was originally the Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, suppressed for seven to eight years, and performed quite well in SARS. Both of them have their own merits, but I think Song Defu is more suitable to manage the party affairs. "
"I understand." Fan Rongkui picked up a pen and wrote the two names on the notebook, "According to what you said, it is a waste of talent to put a person like Song Defu in Heishan County. How about this, ask him to come to me in the next two days."
"Okay."
Fan Rongkui put down the pen, "When I was eating with Jin Zhu two days ago, he mentioned two people to me. One is his former secretary, Cui Xiaofei, and the other is the former Secretary of the County party committee, Yan Bugao. He wants me to arrange for these two people, this request is not too much. Cui Xiaofei is easy to arrange, I have already planned to let him go to the grassroots level to train, but what about Yan Bugao? You have worked with him before, what do you think of him? "
When it came to Yan Bugao, Lu Yiwei could not give an evaluation. Speaking of Yan Bugao, Yan Bugao was not a bad person. Basically, every proposal that Lu Yiwei proposed could get his support and be implemented. Maybe it was because he had been working for a long time, he was tired of it, and he was a little headstrong. But no one had a problem, these problems could be controlled. He said, "Yan Bugao is a little strange, he may be lacking in controlling the overall situation, but I think he should be much more mature after the SARS."
"Oh? Then do you think this person can be used? "
"Let him work in the system, it should be fine."
"Mm." Fan Rongkui picked up the pen again and wrote down Yan Bugao's name, then raised his head and said, "You still have to recommend someone to me. I have been in Xi Zhou for almost two months, the quality of the people around me is not a little bit bad. I need someone like you, young and energetic, who can also calm down. Is there anyone in this area?"
Lu Yiwei understood that Fan Rongkui was looking for a secretary, and he immediately thought of Zhou Dake. He said, "Yes, Zhou Dake, he was assigned to work with me. After I arrived in Black Mountain County, I transferred him from Nanyang to be in charge of education, and he achieved great results. Later, when I found out that I had to leave, I handed him over to Zhang Zhiyuan to be transferred to Pingkang City. But now that Zhang Zhiyuan has also been transferred, it is not good for him to be there alone. This person's literacy is very good in all aspects. "
"Alright." Fan Rongkui decided on the spot and said, "It's him then. Ask him to look for me after work, and I will transfer him back. "
Lu Yiwei had been worried about Zhou Dake's matter. Now that it was all right, he felt at ease handing it over to Fan Rongkui.
After talking about business, Fan Rongkui stood up, frowned and said, "Yiwei, it will not be easy for you to take over Zhao Jialin's mess, do you have any confidence?"
Lu Yiwei sighed and said, "Even if it's not easy, I have to bite the bullet and do it. Before the appointment document was handed down, Secretary Lin Haifeng talked to me and raised three requirements. First, to stabilize the people's hearts and deal with the Vegetable Home matter well, and not harm the interests of the people. Second, you are not allowed to bring up the past. Let the past be the past, and everything will be based on the present. Third, you are not allowed to arbitrarily change the leading cadres. "
After listening, Fan Rongkui said, "Lin Haifeng's purpose is very clear. He does not want you to investigate Zhao Jialin's matter. It is not surprising. If you want to investigate, go to Governor Qiu. No one else would allow it. "
"Yes." Lu Yiwei said, "I understand this layer of meaning, and I do not intend to uncover this pot. The biggest problem now is that the Jiangfang Group, which is responsible for the Vegetable Home project, disappeared overnight, and the management committee is responsible for this sucker. There is not much money in the management committee's account, and it will not be easy to settle these hundreds of families. "
Fan Rongkui also broke out in cold sweat for Lu Yiwei, and said with distress, "It has been hard on you. But since it is your turn, you have to do it well, and you have to do it well, so that you can prove that you, Lu Yiwei, are not a coward. I think if you handle this matter properly, you will definitely make others look at you in a different light. For outsiders, this is a difficult problem, but for you, it is a good thing. There is no fear without money, as long as you use your brain to think of a way, there will always be a way. Also, I will not sit back and watch, I will help you when the time is right. "
Lu Yiwei nodded gratefully.
