Afternoon.
County Party Committee Quarters.
This time, Dong Xuebing drove his Mercedes-Benz MPV into the quarters openly. The guards at the entrance looked at him and did not stop him. This Mercedes-Benz MPV 500L had become Chief Dong's signature. Almost everyone in the County knows this car belongs to Dong Xuebing, and they don't even need to look at the plate number to know this car is rare in the County.
Dong Xuebing alighted from the car and looked at the keys given to him by Chief Yao.
Dong Xuebing's apartment is a grey building on the left. It is not the same building as Xie Huilan, and it is a three-story building.
Dong Xuebing did not take his things out first. He entered the staircase and took the emergency exit to the third floor. He opened the door and looked into the apartment.
The apartment was tidied up, and there was not a speck of dust on the tiles.
But maybe the higher the rank, the higher the rank, the more they care about their image. The County Party Committee Quarters' environment is not as good as the Public Security Bureau's quarters. The floors are tiled, and the other is tiled. One is a washing machine, and the other is a normal washing machine. One is a cabinet air conditioner, and the other is a wall-mounted air conditioner. All these aspects are of a lower grade, and as Dong Xuebing is still single, this apartment is a one-bedroom apartment with one bedroom, one living room, and one bathroom.
Dong Xuebing looked around and did not find anything wrong with the apartment.
Dong Xuebing was a Section Chief now and had to take care of everything. Dong Xuebing felt this apartment was good. On the contrary, if Chief Yao were to give him a luxurious 3 bedroom apartment, Dong Xuebing would not dare to stay there. He still had to think about what Chief Yao was up to.
After a few trips, Dong Xuebing finally moved his things out from the car and started to tidy up the apartment.
Ring … ring … ring … Dong Xuebing's phone rang. It's Xie Huilan.
Dong Xuebing answered. "Hello, Mayor Xie."
"You are staying here?" Xie Huilan laughed. "I saw your car from the window. Have you finished moving your stuff? Do you need Old Xing to help you? "Old Xing is her driver.
"No need. I had moved everything out. Oh, you are not working?"
"I came back for lunch and changed my clothes. I'm going to attend the Spring Festival Gala tonight."
Dong Xuebing stood up and walked to the window. He opened the curtains and looked towards another building. He could see a woman's figure on the window on Xie Huilan's floor. He laughed and waved. "Sister Xie, I can see you. We are not far from each other."
Xie Huilan smiles. "It might not look far, but it is very far. Hahaha …"
"Damn, your words are quite philosophical."
"Oh." Xie Huilan asked. "I heard from Xiao Hu that many people had come to send you off."
Dong Xuebing nodded. "Everyone is too enthusiastic and had given me eggs and vegetables. I can't reject them. Oh … I will send some over to you later. There are so many gifts, and I can't finish them even if I eat for three months."
"Don't bring it to me. My apartment is full now." Xie Huilan replied.
Dong Xuebing suddenly remembered this person is the Mayor, and the gifts he received will not be lesser than Dong Xuebing.
"Xiao Dong." Xie Huilan suddenly turned serious. "You had done a good job in the Public Security this year. So many people had come to send you off and shed tears for you. This is their recognition of your work. You are now the Investment Promotion Agency's Chief, and you must continue to work hard. But you must not use that violent attitude anymore. It's fine when you are still in the Public Security as it is necessary for your work. But after you are in the Investment Promotion Agency, you must change your image. Do you understand what I mean?"
Dong Xuebing understood what Xie Huilan meant. "Yes. I will take note."
"Ok. The Investment Promotion Agency's working style is different from what you used to do. Alright. See you at the Gala. Haha …"
Dong Xuebing looked at his watch and went to the County Party School.
The Gala is held at the County Party School's Auditorium, and it's about 5.30 pm.
When Dong Xuebing arrived, the Party School's courtyard is full of cars. Commission for Discipline Inspection, Public Security, and Government vehicles are all parked there. Dong Xuebing drove around the courtyard but could not find a parking spot. After a while, a Party School Leader recognized Dong Xuebing's car and walked over to point to a building. Dong Xuebing drove to the back of the building and parked his car at a corner.
There are too many people.
Dong Xuebing looks at the leaders and staff from all the departments and wonders if the Auditorium can fit so many people.
Secretary Xiang had placed great importance on this Gala and had requested every department to prepare a program. This way, even if someone does not want to attend, they will not dare to apply for leave. Sanitation, Discipline Inspection, Law Enforcement, People's Congress, People's Political Consultative Conference, County Party Committee Office, etc. How many people will there be if each department sends three to five leaders? There are so many departments in Yan Tai County, and many of them had brought their secretaries and staff with them. Dong Xuebing should only see a small portion of the attendees. Most of the attendees had entered the Auditorium or had not arrived yet.
"Hahaha … Old Zheng is here."
"Old Xu, what program is your unit performing?"
"It's a secret. You will know when the program is performed."
"Oh, Secretary Liu, Director Sun, it's been a while."
Dong Xuebing's eardrums are buzzing with greetings. It's too noisy. Huh … Let's go into the Auditorium and find a seat.
The Auditorium is also crowded, and there is no order.
Dong Xuebing waved to a few acquaintances and saw Qin Yong had arrived.
"Old Qin, when did you arrive?" Dong Xuebing stepped aside to make way for two more people.
"I had just arrived and was looking for the Public Security Bureau seats. But I think we did not get a seat." Qin Yong replied. "We should be sitting anywhere." The County's Party Secretary, Mayor, and other members of the Standing Committee will be seated in the first row, and the higher-ranking officials will be seated in the second or third row. Qin Yong, a Public Security Deputy Bureau Chief, will be seated in the middle or at the back.
Dong Xuebing replied. "Let's find a place to sit together. Let's go to the back row."
Qin Yong laughed. "You should be sitting in the front row. How can you squeeze with me?"
"Are you laughing at me? Let's go. I must sit with you today. "
Qin Yong is right. With Dong Xuebing's current rank and position, he should be sitting in the first few rows. His transfer to the Investment Promotion Agency will take effect today, but Dong Xuebing does not want to be in the limelight. After all, he had not even been to the Investment Promotion Agency once. Strictly speaking, this is not considered his transfer.
