Morning.
Provincial City.
Airport. Dong Xuebing walked out of the airport after alighting. He looked around but did not see any cars coming to fetch him.
He looked at his watch. It's 9 am.
Dong Xuebing did not rush her and waited for a while.
After a while, Dong Xuebing switched on his phone, and his phone rang. It's Yao Cui. Dong Xuebing does not know how many times he had called.
"Hello, Mayor Dong!" Yao Cui was panting.
Dong Xuebing asked. "What's wrong? Why are you panting? "
Yao Cui replied. "I'm fine. Have you reached the airport?"
Dong Xuebing nodded. "I had just alighted a few minutes ago. Where are you now?"
Yao Cui replied. "I'm sorry. I had just come out with Chief Ma."
Dong Xuebing frowned. Just come out? Zhen Shui County is quite far from the Provincial City. If Dong Xuebing had left at this hour, he will be arriving after 10.30 pm. It will be 1 pm when he returns.
But Dong Xuebing will not be angry with Yao Cui. "What's wrong?"
Yao Cui replied. "We had been rushing for half a day and had just booked a taxi with Chief Ma. There are no more cars in the County."
"There are no more cars in the County's Party Committee?" Dong Xuebing frowned.
"They don't want to lend us cars." Yao Cui replied angrily.
"What's going on? What do you mean they don't want to lend us cars? "Dong Xuebing asked.
Yao Cui replied angrily. "They did not say they don't want to lend us cars. After you called me, I went to the County's Party Committee Compound. I had also called the County's Party Committee Office on my way there, but they told me there are no more cars. But I saw three cars with red balloons driving out from the window. I told them Mayor Dong had alighted from the plane and is waiting for a car to fetch him. The County's Party Committee Office staff contacted the higher-ups, and Chief Ma went with me. He heard the call was to Deputy Party Secretary Zhang and nothing else. In the end, the County's Party Committee Office Chief Jiang Hai came over and told us there are no more cars. All the cars are going to Deputy Party Secretary Zhang's son's wedding. He asked us to think of other ways! In the end, Chief Ma and I called the County's Party Committee Office, and the Public Security and two other departments also do not have any cars. All the cars are going to Deputy Party Secretary Zhang's son's wedding. "Yao Cui was complaining to Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing's face changed after hearing this.
The reason why he didn't ask Ma Bin to contact him was that Ma Bin didn't have enough influence, so he asked Yao Cui, the secretary, to do it. What did a secretary mean? In public, the secretary can represent the leader, and her words are almost the leader's words. Under such circumstances, she can't even borrow a car from Dong Xuebing? The County's Party Committee still doesn't give him any face?
It's impossible for Dong Xuebing to look good!
Yao Cui might have been out of breath after running for a long time.
Dong Xuebing replied. "Take a few deep breaths first. Is Chief Ma beside you? Put him on the phone. "
"Okay." Yao Cui lowered her voice. "Director Ma, Mayor Dong is looking for you."
"Yes." Ma Bin immediately answered. "Mayor Dong, I'm Old Ma."
Ma Bin does not dare to ignore Dong Xuebing's request. After all, one of Dong Xuebing's duties is the County Government Office, and he is Ma Bin's direct superior. That's why Dong Xuebing told Ma Bin over the phone that he will get a car, but Ma Bin still went to the County personally. When the County's Party Committee refused to lend him a car, Ma Bin was furious. In the end, he had to book a taxi and came with Yao Cui.
"Where are you all now?" Dong Xuebing asked.
"The taxis here don't usually go to the Provincial City. It's too far, and we had to find a taxi. We are still not out of the County, and it will take more than an hour to reach."
Dong Xuebing nodded. "Alright. You all don't need to come."
Ma Bin was stunned and quickly said. "Mayor Dong, today …"
Dong Xuebing calmly replied. "I am not blaming you all. It's too late for you all to come all the way here. There's no need for you all to come all the way here. I can take a long-distance bus back myself."
"How can we do that?"
"Listen to me. You all can go back first."
"Ok … … ok. I'm sorry, Mayor Dong."
"It's alright. It's not your responsibility. Chief Ma, we might have some misunderstandings when I was just appointed. Let's have dinner together another day."
Ma Bin got excited. "Ok. Let's see if you have time."
"Ok. Thank you all for your hard work today. Let Xiao Yao know."
After hanging up, Ma Bin knew his hard work these few days had not gone to waste. He had finally gotten past Mayor Dong. He had been worried that Dong Xuebing would bring up the past and transfer him to another position because of Dong Xuebing's ex-classmate. As the leader in charge, Dong Xuebing has the right to do this. That's why Dong Xuebing's words put an end to this incident, and Ma Bin can heave a sigh of relief.
… …
Airport.
After asking them not to come, Dong Xuebing walked to a nearby long-distance bus stop. The bus to Zhen Shui County was about to leave. Dong Xuebing bought the ticket and boarded the bus.
It was a little crowded and messy, but he could only make do.
He did not know anyone in the Provincial City and could only take the long-distance bus.
How long had it been since he took the long-distance bus? Dong Xuebing could not even remember.
In the car, the two men in the front seat seemed to be drunk. They kept bragging along the way, and Dong Xuebing was annoyed.
The more annoyed Dong Xuebing was, the darker his face became.
There are no more buses in the County? How is this possible? You all have cars to attend Deputy Secretary Zhang Wanshui's son's wedding, and you all don't have a car to fetch me? This is a joke! How many cars are there for a wedding? The County's Party Committee's cars, the County's Party Committee's cars, and some rented cars. You all don't have any cars?
This is clearly not giving me any face!
Dong Xuebing knew Secretary Pu An's Commission for Discipline Inspection was not well-off, and he had nothing to do with the Commission for Discipline Inspection. That's why he will not blame Secretary Pu. Zhen Shui County was under Secretary Meng's control. Zhang Wanshui was one of Secretary Meng's staff, and he knew all the cars were going to attend his son's wedding. Dong Xuebing does not believe that Zhang Wanshui does not know about this!
If this was in Beijing, this would not happen. This was because they will offend Dong Xuebing, and it will not do them any good. But at the grassroots level, it was more direct, and nothing was impossible.
Just because I talked back to you all during the Party Committee meeting, you all start to give me face?
Zhang Wanshui?
Mongolian Faction's staff?
Fine! I will remember this!
Dong Xuebing laughed. Do you all think I don't have a car?
