Next day.
Morning.
It's morning, but the sun is not shining. It's winter here, and it's not warm. Dong Xuebing's apartment is on the second floor.
Dong Xuebing's room is on the second floor, and he looked at his watch. It's still early, but he did not have dinner at home. After washing up, he put on his clothes and went out. It's 8 pm when he went downstairs. He had also arranged to meet his driver, Xiao Wang. But when he went downstairs, Xiao Wang's car was already parked outside. Dong Xuebing does not know how long he had been there, and he was staring at his apartment's staircase. When Xiao Wang saw Dong Xuebing, he immediately alighted and greeted him. After that, he walked to the back of the car and opened the door for Dong Xuebing.
"This way."
"You are here early?"
"No. I had just arrived."
"Haha … let's have breakfast first."
"Ok. Shall we go to the west side of the County Party Committee Compound?"
"Sure. I don't know. Let's go to whichever place you like."
After boarding the car, Xiao Wang drove out of the estate and stopped at a breakfast stall. This is not a roadside stall, and it's a proper stall with a shop front. Steam is coming out from the stall, and the smell of steamed buns is very fragrant.
Dong Xuebing alighted.
Xiao Wang did not move.
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Let's go, Xiao Wang. Let's have breakfast together."
Xiao Wang hesitated for a while and followed Dong Xuebing into the stall.
This is near the County's Party Committee Compound, and there are a few government officials here for lunch. They recognized Dong Xuebing and stole a few glances at him. But they did not greet him, as their ranks are not high enough to greet him.
Dong Xuebing noticed this and did not say anything. He sat at the same table with his driver, Xiao Wang, and called the waiter to order breakfast.
After breakfast, Dong Xuebing returned to his unit.
… …
8.40 am.
County Party Committee Compound, Secretary's Office.
When Dong Xuebing entered the office, Su Yan was already there. He was sweeping the office with a broom. Dong Xuebing looked at Su Yan's desk. Su Yan's things had all been moved over and placed on the desk in the outer room. He was ready to start working.
When the door opened, Su Yan heard it and turned to look. "Secretary Dong, good morning."
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Good morning. Why are you so busy? Aren't there cleaners? Why did you sweep the floor? "
Su Yan smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm fine too, so I'll just sweep it."
Dong Xuebing nodded. "Are the papers here?"
"Coming, today's morning paper." Su Yan immediately put down the broom and turned around. He passed a few newspapers to Dong Xuebing. "One copy is from our County, one copy is from the City, and one copy is from the Province."
Dong Xuebing nodded. "What important news?"
Su Yan said, "I did a cursory scan, nothing much."
Dong Xuebing replied. "Alright. I will return to my office now. If anyone is looking for me, let them in. Let me know if you need to inform me, and stop those who need to be stopped. You know what to do." Actually, Dong Xuebing could not teach him these specific matters and details. He could only rely on Su Yan to understand it himself. Moreover, things that he understood himself would be more memorable. Dong Xuebing had done this step by step.
Su Yan felt some pressure. "Ok!"
Dong Xuebing smiled at him. "Don't be so nervous. Just keep the same attitude when you are working. You need some time to get used to it. Don't worry. I will not scold you even if you make mistakes. Haha …" After saying that, Dong Xuebing entered the room and closed the door.
In the office.
Dong Xuebing sat down and put his things away. He picked up the papers and started reading. The County and City's morning papers had reported about Dong Xuebing's appointment. There was even a picture of him with his identification card. It was a little silly, and Dong Xuebing was not satisfied with it. As for the other news, Dong Xuebing did not read anything important and threw the papers aside. He looked at his watch and started reading the documents and files Meng Hanmei gave him yesterday.
5 minutes … …
10 minutes … …
No one came to look for Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing looked at his watch again and narrowed his eyes. The current situation in the County was making him feel uncomfortable. It seems that no one had any reaction to his appointment. They were waiting for the situation to develop and did not take the initiative to do anything. Dong Xuebing understood this situation. He was not welcomed by the City and Provincial Government, and he was young and had a bad character. He had just arrived in Jiaolin County, and he had beaten up someone. It was normal for everyone to be worried. No matter from which angle, the Mayor, Zhang Dongfang, had the upper hand. That's why other than Meng Hanmei, no one else came to look for Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing smiled. He had already made up his mind yesterday, but he did not expect the situation to be so complicated. Now, he was even more determined.
Knock, knock.
Someone knocked on the door.
Dong Xuebing said. "Come in."
Su Yan opened the door and looked in. "Director Meng is looking for you." Dong Xuebing nodded and Su Yan stepped aside to let Meng Hanmei in.
"Secretary." Meng Hanmei greeted.
Dong Xuebing nodded. "What's the matter?"
Meng Hanmei replied. "Su Yan's promotion to Deputy Chief of the County's Party Committee had been approved by the Organization Department. When do you want to hold a Party Committee Meeting? This promotion needs to be approved by the Party Committee. "
Dong Xuebing tapped on the table and laughed. "Let's do it today. Sister Meng, inform everyone that the Party Committee Meeting will be held at 10 am."
Meng Hanmei was stunned. "Err … today? One hour later? "
Dong Xuebing replied. "Yes. Just go and inform them. Don't say anything else. Just tell them that it is my first day at work and I want to greet them."
Meng Hanmei knew there must be something else. Telling them is just to greet them? Does that mean there is something else behind the greeting? Meng Hanmei did not expect Dong Xuebing to hold a Party Committee Meeting today. At least, he should familiarize himself with the work first. Even if he wants to hold a meeting, he should at least hold a meeting or meet some of the County's leaders privately to test the waters.
Holding a Party Committee Meeting so soon?
Meng Hanmei felt that it was too abrupt. She was too unprepared.
But Dong Xuebing's smiling expression showed he had made up his mind.
Meng Hanmei did not say anything else and nodded. She walked out slowly to inform the rest of the County's leaders.
