The next day.
Morning, Jiaolin County.
Dong Xuebing started working at the Old County Party Committee Compound the moment he arrived.
"Xiao Su, tell the City Tourism Bureau to stop rushing us. The Ancient Tomb cannot be opened to the public now, and there are still a few chambers that have not been excavated. Even if they had completed the excavation, there will still be a period of research. It is not so easy to develop the tomb into a tourist attraction. We can at most provide them with some brochures and related information, and we can still promote the tomb, but we cannot open it to the public. Also, tell the Finance Bureau to stop delaying the teachers' salary increase. We are not short of money now, and we can help the Education Bureau to make up for the shortfall in the budget. This must be done in one go. Also, tell the Investment Promotion Agency that almost all the 1 billion RMB projects have started, and ask them to follow up on them. If there are any violations, get the relevant departments to investigate them. For example, the construction of buildings must be of high quality. If the investors have any difficulties, we can help them and give them the green light. Since they had come to our County to invest, we must be responsible for them."
Su Yan took a small notebook and wrote them down one by one. Then, he hurriedly went to execute them.
The Mayor, Zhang Dongfang, and Executive Deputy Mayor, Xu Zhuang, had left for two to three days, and most of the County Government's matters are on Dong Xuebing's shoulders. He had to worry about this and that, and he was exhausted. Also, he had been working on the Han Dynasty Ancient Tomb for the past two months. Dong Xuebing did not rest for a few days. Even an iron man can't handle it. Dong Xuebing had decided to take a few days off to rest.
Ring ring ring.
The phone rang.
Dong Xuebing looked at the number and answered. "Xiao Ling."
"Brother Dong." Fang Shuiling asked. "Are you busy?"
Dong Xuebing replied. "That's right. I can't even sleep for six hours these few days. But it's better than before, and I don't have to do any live broadcasts."
"You have to take care of yourself," Fang Shuiling said.
Dong Xuebing replied. "Don't worry. I am a doctor, and I know what to do."
Fang Shuiling laughed. "Oh, Mayor Zhang and the rest had gone back today, and I got someone to send them to the airport. They had boarded the plane this morning, and they should be arriving soon."
"I know. Old Zhang had called me to thank you for sending them over. I will treat you to dinner later. You can pick any place you want." Dong Xuebing replied.
Fang Shuiling replied nonchalantly. "It's nothing. You don't need to thank me. I should be the one treating you. Err … Brother Ran and I had booked our engagement banquet, and it will be held in a month's time. It will be early next month, and I will send the invitation to you. No matter how busy you are, you must attend. Brother Ran and I are able to get to where we are today because of your help. Brother Ran had told me that we can thank anyone but Brother Dong." Dong Xuebing nodded. Fang Shuiling nodded. "You don't need to thank me.
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Alright. What's there to thank? You are always saying the same thing. Even if you are not annoyed by it, I am annoyed by it. As long as both of you can have a good time, I will not do anything. Alright. Next month? I will be there. Congratulations in advance. "
"You must come." Fang Shuiling repeated.
Dong Xuebing replied. "Of course. I will apply for leave no matter how busy I am. Haha …"
Fang Shuiling laughed. "I will not disturb your work anymore. Brother Dong, I will go and inform the rest. I will be busy these few days."
Dong Xuebing nodded. "Just call me if you need anything. We are considered a family now. I might not be able to help you with your work and politics, but you all don't need to worry about money. You all can look for me if you need money to solve your problems." Not many people dare to say such arrogant words, but Dong Xuebing dares to say it.
Fang Shuiling paused for a second and replied shyly. "Thank you, Brother-in-law."
Dong Xuebing laughed when he heard this and changed the way he addressed her.
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing continued with his work. He signed a few documents that should be from the County Government.
One hour …
Two hours …
Eleven o 'clock in the afternoon.
Zhang Dongfang and Xu Zhuang finally returned.
Wei Zhixuan, who was about to go out to work, saw them and quickly asked. "Old Zhang, Xiao Xu, you are back?"
Zhang Dongfang replied. "Old Wei."
Wei Zhixuan asked. "How is it?"
Zhang Dongfang smiled and nodded slightly.
Wei Zhixuan understood what Zhang Dongfang meant, and he is overjoyed.
Wei Zhixuan was one of them. He was older than Zhang Dongfang and was about to retire. He had been in the County Party Committee for too many years. He did not expect that he would have the opportunity to become the Deputy Secretary of the County Party Committee before he retired. This was something that Wei Zhixuan had never thought of before. It would be strange if he wasn't happy.
"Old Wei, are you going out to work? Ok. "Zhang Dongfang rushed into the office." I need to look for Secretary Dong first. "
Wei Zhixuan replied. "I will go out first. Let's have dinner together."
Zhang Dongfang laughed. "Sure. Call Old Meng, Old Chang, and the rest over for a drink."
Many people in the office saw Zhang Dongfang and Xu Zhuang's expressions and knew it was a success. They quickly spread the news to each other. Such a large-scale organizational reform that involved the entire county would not only benefit the leaders, but also the people under them. Many of the cadres would be promoted, and after the county was removed, many new departments would be established. For example, the secretarial department would definitely not be limited to just the first and second departments. Even the other two neighboring counties might be divided under the jurisdiction of the new Jiaoling City. This was a big move. With so many new positions empty, there would be more opportunities. Everyone would naturally be tempted. Who wouldn't want to take advantage of the situation to get a share of the pie?
City Party Committee.
Party Secretary's office.
Knock, knock. Zhang Dongfang and Xu Zhuang knocked on the door and entered.
"Oh, you are back?" Dong Xuebing looked up and smiled. "Have a seat. Thank you for your hard work."
Zhang Dongfang and Xu Zhuang went over and sat down. "We're fine. If we're talking about hard work, you're the one who's had it the hardest. I've heard that you've been taking care of the county government's affairs these past few days. It's all on me. I thought that if everything went well, I'd be able to come back the next day. Who knew that it would drag on for three days? Sigh, I've underestimated things. This trip to the capital made Zhang Dongfang and Xu Zhuang very emotional. It wasn't that they didn't know how difficult it was to get things done in the capital, but they had still far underestimated it. The waters there were much deeper than they had imagined. Without a bit of background and connections, it was really difficult to do anything there and nothing could be done.
"It's good that everything is settled." Dong Xuebing got up to pour them a glass of water.
Xu Zhuang quickly takes a paper cup from Dong Xuebing. "Have a seat. Help yourself." He poured two glasses of water and gave one to Zhang Dongfang. After that, he filled Dong Xuebing's glass with water. Xu Zhuang's attitude towards Dong Xuebing was different from before. These few days, even if the Zhang faction and Dong faction's men were on the same side, it was only temporary. After all, they were two factions. Everyone knows that after the County is established, these two factions will have to fight for benefits. This is unavoidable. That's why during the ambiguous period, Xu Zhuang kept a distance from Dong Xuebing and Dong Xuebing's men. But now, Xu Zhuang was different. After returning from Beijing, he was much more polite to Dong Xuebing. There was no longer any contempt in his eyes.
Why?
This is because they had heard too much about Dong Xuebing during this trip to Beijing. They were shocked by Dong Xuebing's achievements.
On the way back from the clubhouse with Fang Shuiling, they chatted with Xie Hao and the few young men he brought with him. They told them about how Dong Xuebing had barged into State Security because of an Old Leader with the surname Xu, how he had killed a few pirates to save his child, and how he had been in a plane crash and attended his own funeral.
Every one of them was like a story in a novel.
Zhang Dongfang and Xu Zhuang realized how famous their County's Party Secretary Dong is in Beijing. Secretary Dong is the son-in-law of Beijing's Party Secretary Xie Guobang. Zhang Dongfang also heard about Xie Guobang's background. He heard that Xie Guobang is the eldest son of the former Party Secretary Xie. What kind of family is this? Zhang Dongfang and Xu Zhuang were terrified. No wonder no one dares to offend Dong Xuebing in Beijing. No wonder Fang Shuiling, the Premier's granddaughter, did not dare to offend Dong Xuebing. But when Dong Xuebing's name is mentioned, Chen Xiaoliu will turn around and walk away. No one in Beijing can be compared to Dong Xuebing!
God of Plague!
This is the evaluation given to Dong Xuebing by the Beijing aristocratic families.
Zhang Dongfang thought for a while and felt this nickname is appropriate. Dong Xuebing is also like this in his County. This is the County's Party Secretary who does not do things according to the rules!
After knowing this, Zhang Dongfang is also shocked.
Xu Zhuang is the same. He no longer has any thoughts of getting into a conflict with Dong Xuebing. He remembered he had argued with Dong Xuebing in the past during the Party Committee meeting. Xu Zhuang is scared. Dong Xuebing will not stay in this small place. There is no need to offend him.
