"Secretary Wang, you should stay in Guangdong for a few more months."
"Secretary Wang, the situation is so chaotic now. Isn't it inappropriate for you to leave now?"
…
Wang Mingshan was stubborn and serious about his work. There were many people who respected him, but not many people who liked him. Wang Mingshan was not happy at all when so many people came to ask him to stay. The issue of Hu Zhijian's appointment at the party committee meeting caused quite a stir. There were not many people who opposed it, but there were many who disagreed. At this stage, the person who unwaveringly supported Wei Changrong was the director of the provincial party committee. The department under the political and legal committee also expressed their support. Other than that, the other comrades did not support Hu Zhijian becoming the governor.
In such a chaotic situation, Wang Mingshan just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. But when he went to look for Pang Congcong, Pang Congcong's answer was: "Let's talk about it after my wife's work is done."
Wang Mingshan's wife was a teacher, so it was easy for her to be transferred. This time, she was admitted to Nanjing Institute of Foreign Languages. She would go to school and become a foreign language teacher or a foreign language translator after graduation. No matter which profession it was, it was a good choice.
But Pang Congcong's family was not the same. Pang Congcong's husband, Wu Yuanjia, was currently working in the military logistics department. It was not a good thing for a husband and wife to live apart, so the organization transferred Pang Congcong's husband to work in the logistics department. But this required a series of procedures. According to the regulations, some transfers had to be done together. Special procedures required some documents, and waiting for the documents would often lead to situations that were beyond everyone's imagination. For example, one of the documents could not be found after it was sent out.
In the past, one of the documents could only be added. Now, confidential issues were very strict. They had to solve the problem of the missing document before they could add the documents. The entire system was not smooth.
"Our luck is too bad," Wang Mingshan said.
Pang Congcong snorted. This was something she would do when she was very dissatisfied. "It's not bad luck. Some people's work is obviously not sorted out, and they don't want to do it."
"Huh?" Wang Mingshan was stunned.
"I think the government agencies are now required to have a clear division of labor and clear responsibilities. If it was done according to the system, there would be a system for the transfer and receipt of the documents. However, it was hard to determine the responsibility of where the documents were lost and what exactly happened. Since no one wanted to take responsibility, they could only push it away. If you want to avoid it, there are many ways. "Pang Congcong's tone was very impolite.
Wang Mingshan, on the other hand, was not so excited. He sighed and said, "There are too many things in the middle. How can it be so easy to know? I think it can only be said that they have no experience. With such a big mess, who can manage every detail so easily? "
This kind of argument had occurred many times between Wang Mingshan and Pang Congcong. The two of them had different personalities and different work strengths. Arguing could actually allow the two of them to have a deeper understanding of the problem through discussion. It seemed that Pang Congcong wanted to leave this place that had been stirred up even more than Wang Mingshan. She said, "I've decided to leave immediately. My husband will take care of the child first, and he will go to Nanjing after the formalities are completed. "
While they were talking, the secretary came in and told Pang Congcong that her husband, Wu Yuanjia, had come. Pang Congcong quickly let Wu Yuanjia in. Seeing Wang Mingshan in the office, Wu Yuanjia didn't care too much. Everyone met often. He said to Pang Congcong, "I heard a piece of news. The lost documents were found. When they were transported on the railway in Jiangxi, there was a gang that specialized in stealing things from the train. It was said that the whole village relied on this to make a living. They caught a whole village. "
After listening to this news, Wang Mingshan and Pang Congcong's faces became very ugly. The result of the clan's underworld was that the whole village could easily be involved in a certain criminal business. It was not a joke that the law did not punish the masses. They couldn't drag the whole village to kill them. However, in the process of eliminating evil, they would always encounter the clan's protection. The grass-roots work was also very difficult. When the public security comrades entered the village to handle the case, there were many people. At that time, the village leaders also had people to support them. But when the public security withdrew, everyone saw each other. The families of the criminals didn't think that there was anything wrong with their family members doing something to make money. Instead, they felt that the village leaders were very wrong to help "outsiders." All kinds of contradictions continued to increase and accumulate.
For example, not long ago, when the gangsters who bullied the market at the farmers' market were paraded in the streets, the vegetable farmers and vegetable sellers beat drums and set off firecrackers to deeply express their support and gratitude to the government. As a result, the son of the gangster leader was arrested. Two days later, the gangster leader's 65-year-old mother took dozens of people to the market to collect protection fees.
The Public Security Bureau thought that after arresting a group of people, the market would be peaceful for a period of time. They never thought that in the face of economic benefits, there would be such a group of people who could do shocking behavior. In a sense, this old lady could also be regarded as a "heroine." Her feet were bound, but she still led people to insist on her son's great business of collecting protection fees. The public security officers were a little scared. The Liberation Army was invincible and invincible. In terms of their willpower, they were probably at the same level as the Liberation Army. And this kind of firm willpower didn't seem to be lacking in the people at all.
In the past few years, Wu Yuanjia had come to the provincial party committee to pick up his wife many times. Every time he came, he could see that the provincial party committee meeting room was brightly lit. But whether it was peeking or trying to push the door open to see if he felt uneasy, he always saw a group of provincial party committee cadres didn't go home. They were in the meeting room discussing problems.
Pang Congcong didn't want to embarrass her lover, so as long as it wasn't a meeting, she brought the documents home to read the instructions after work. It was common to stay up late into the night, so it wasn't strange to be busy all night. When she was really tired, Pang Congcong would occasionally smoke a cigarette to refresh her mind.
Seeing that Wang Mingshan and Pang Congcong showed the most often unhappy expressions before talking about work, Wu Yuanjia said goodbye. The purpose of his visit this time was to tell Pang Congcong the latest news and let her prepare to go out. His purpose had been achieved, so staying in the office would only prevent Pang Congcong from talking about work.
The moment Wu Yuanjia left, Pang Congcong said, "Looks like the crackdown is not just limited to this place."
"The more developed the economy, the more severe the crackdown will be." Wang Mingshan completely agreed with Pang Congcong's point of view.
"Even though we were poor in the past, we didn't plan to do bad things." Pang Congcong couldn't help but ask.
"Both of you are from the city, how poor can you be?" The moment the door opened, Wei Changrong pushed the door open and came in. His ears were very sharp, so he heard a little of the conversation between the two.
"And the two of you joined the rebel team. Is there anything worse than this in that era? Haha. "Wei Changrong couldn't help but laugh.
"It's not the same! We have never thought of doing bad things. "Pang Congcong retorted.
After Wei Changrong sat down, he said, "Not daring to do bad things and not thinking that it's bad things are not the same way. You think that stealing, robbing, and joining the underworld is a bad thing, but for those criminals, earning money quickly and making a lot of money is a very honorable and right thing to do. Anything that prevents them from achieving this goal is a bad thing, and any organization that prevents them from achieving this goal is made up of bad people. You also know that the mother of the underworld boss personally led a team out to collect protection fees, right? That mother thinks that collecting protection fees is not only not a bad thing, but also a very honorable thing. In her eyes, we, who captured her son, are the real bad guys. "
"Then who do we belong to?" Wang Mingshan couldn't help but ask.
"You, Wang Mingshan, are at least half an official's family, so you are no stranger to being an official. Although the officials of the Manchu Qing era are different from the officials of our era, you know very well that you have to follow the central government, and some things are wrong, at least you shouldn't do. "Wei Changrong evaluated Wang Mingshan.
After speaking to Wang Mingshan, Wei Changrong turned his head to look at Pang Congcong. "Comrade Pang Congcong, you are a girl, and you are involved in a war. If you don't have power as your backing, you are the most vulnerable person. Maybe my thinking is wrong, but I think that becoming an official with power can protect you and prevent you from getting hurt. So, you won't do anything that the central government doesn't allow. Because when others lose their power, they might still have a way to live, but when you lose your power, you lose the ability to protect yourself. "
Comparing these two kinds of comments, Pang Congcong's level was "relatively low", but Pang Congcong bit her lip subconsciously. After a while, she said seriously, "Secretary Wei, you are right. I have spent so much effort and suffered so much, and it was not easy for me to get to where I am now. I don't have to worry about food, I don't have to worry about drinking, and I am respected. Other people's wives will be scolded at home, and even beaten. At home, I don't ask for face, and I don't ask for my lover to be subservient to me. As a woman, I want to be as good as possible to my lover and my child. No one can bully me, and no one dares to bully me. That's enough. Some people break the law for money, and violate the law for favors. I can see it clearly, and when I do it, others can see it clearly. If something happens to me, I will fall. It will be much worse than a man! "
Wang Mingshan had always been unable to understand Pang Congcong. A well-behaved and capable woman would often be incomprehensible to men. Wang Mingshan couldn't figure out what kind of outstanding ideals she had to persist to this point. Wang Mingshan sincerely wanted to be a good official and a good person. It was precisely because he had a firm belief that he deeply understood how difficult it was to be a good official and a good person.
Sometimes, Wang Mingshan couldn't help but ask Pang Congcong about this more personal question. Pang Congcong never had any intention of being high-profile. She always said that she was worried that she would make mistakes and not be able to complete her work. This made Wang Mingshan feel that Pang Congcong was a little "hypocritical". With Pang Congcong's ability and political achievements, she still said that she couldn't do it, and that she couldn't do it well. Who was this a joke?
At this moment, after listening to Wei Changrong and Pang Congcong's words, he actually felt a little enlightened. The driving force that drove Pang Congcong to complete her work seriously and stay clean was actually fear. In the past, Wang Mingshan would never have considered this. He couldn't help but ask, "Then why didn't you say this before?"
