Xiao Yuanqing didn't expect that his fate would change in just a few days. When he received the transfer notice from the city in his office, he couldn't believe it was true. The news came so suddenly that Xiao Yuanqing didn't even hear about it. When he found out that he was going to be transferred to the Municipal Government Office, the news had already spread. Xiao Yuanqing's office was immediately crowded, and his phone was ringing non-stop.
On this day, Xiao Yuanqing was busier than ever. There were too many people who called to congratulate him. Xiao Yuanqing didn't even know who some of them were. They were completely unrelated to him. Xiao Yuanqing casually snorted and hung up the phone. The next phone call immediately came in. They were all simply calling to congratulate him. Among them, there was no lack of leaders of Jinhua City.
In the city, the work of the Municipal Government Office was carried out in an orderly manner as usual. It wasn't affected by the newly appointed Deputy Director. Office Director Huang Yonggang went to Secretary-General Jiang Bingxuan's office as usual. He mentioned the newly appointed Deputy Director, Xiao Yuanqing. Huang Yonggang smiled and said that he didn't know what kind of person this Deputy Director Xiao was. Since Mayor Chen personally called him, this person was really not simple. Huang Yonggang didn't know how he got into Mayor Chen's eyes.
No matter what kind of person he was, as the Office Director, you have to fulfill your duties and do your job well. You are the head of the office, and the other Deputy Directors work under your leadership. Jiang Bingxuan took a sip of tea. The meaning behind his words was very clear. The office couldn't be out of control.
Secretary-General Jiang, don't worry. Even if you didn't say it, I, as the Director, wouldn't dare to be negligent. Huang Yonggang smiled and nodded. He hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but express his worry. Secretary-General Jiang, do you think that Mayor Chen made such a move this time because he was dissatisfied with the work of the office? If it goes on like this, I'm afraid.
Huang Yonggang didn't finish his words. He wanted to say that if this situation continued, as the Office Director, he might not be able to escape the fate of being transferred. This time, Chen Xing only arranged a Deputy Director, but everyone knew that Chen Xing was dissatisfied with the office. Although no one knew how Xiao Yuanqing had a relationship with Chen Xing, this arrangement was personally handled by Chen Xing. Everyone would regard Xiao Yuanqing as one of Chen Xing's people.
Comrade Yonggang, you are thinking too much. Do your job well. Whether it is me or Mayor Li, we are very satisfied with your work. The office needs an experienced comrade like you to carry the burden. Moreover, the other leaders in the city are also very satisfied with your work. Mayor Chen also needs to respect everyone's opinion. Jiang Bingxuan frowned and reassured Huang Yonggang. However, he was a little vigilant in his heart. Huang Yonggang was on their side. It was not a good sign that he was worried about Huang Yonggang.
Huang Yonggang smiled helplessly. When he finally left Jiang Bingxuan's office, he was not completely relieved because of Jiang Bingxuan's comfort. To put it bluntly, it was the old saying that when the gods fight, the little devils suffer. Chen Xing was a new official and didn't have much prestige in the city. Several Deputies dared to restrain Chen Xing openly and secretly. Those Deputies were confident, but as the Office Director, he didn't dare to go against Chen Xing head-on. Chen Xing couldn't do anything to those Deputies for the time being, but it didn't mean that he couldn't do anything to him. As long as Chen Xing was determined to transfer him, his position as the Office Director was really unstable. Therefore, Huang Yonggang didn't necessarily have the heart to wave flags and cheer for Jiang Bingxuan and Li Haocheng.
Little Deng, hasn't Deputy Mayor Li come yet? In the Mayor's office, Chen Xing looked at the time and asked aloud.
Not yet. I'll go and ask again. Deng Qingming left the office in a hurry.
When he came in again, Deng Qingming's expression was very strange. He glanced at Chen Xing carefully. Deng Qingming said, Mayor, Deputy Mayor Li just … just went out.
What did you say? Chen Xing exerted force in his hand. With a "hua" sound, the pen poked a small hole in the paper. Chen Xing's face darkened, but he suppressed his anger.
I went to have a look just now. Deputy Mayor Li is not in the office. I asked the staff, and they said that Deputy Mayor Li went out to check on the situation of the autumn drought in the countryside. Deng Qingming answered truthfully, but he was secretly worried. Li Haocheng really dared to do this. Chen Xing just asked him to invite Li Haocheng here. Obviously, he had something to discuss with Li Haocheng, the Executive Deputy Mayor. However, Li Haocheng went out directly. It was clear that he did not give face to Chen Xing. In the past, he did not make it obvious, but this time, he went too far.
It's fine. You go out first. Chen Xing's face darkened. He watched Deng Qingming go out and close the door. Chen Xing finally couldn't help but slap the table. He gnashed his teeth in anger and mumbled something. Since arriving in Nanzhou City, this was the first time Chen Xing was really angry. Since he became the acting mayor, the deputy Li Haocheng had never taken the initiative to go to his office. Chen Xing endured it for the time being. Today, when he arrived at the office early in the morning, he asked his secretary to inform Li Haocheng to come to his office. Li Haocheng once again slapped him hard in the face with practical action. He was the acting mayor in name only.
At noon, Chen Xing appeared at Jindu Hotel. This was the second time he came to Jindu Hotel for lunch. Zhang Ruoming was already waiting at the hotel, and Xiao Yuanqing rushed over.
It was Mayor Chen. Xiao Yuanqing was very excited when he saw Chen Xing. He knew that his promotion was personally arranged by Chen Xing. Otherwise, this pie wouldn't fall from the sky. Xiao Yuanqing was very grateful. At this time, when he saw Chen Xing, Xiao Yuanqing was even more determined. Mayor, I will work hard and won't let you down.
After arriving at the office, he had to be more careful and adapt to office work as soon as possible. Chen Xing nodded at Xiao Yuanqing. Because of what happened in the morning, there wasn't much smile on Chen Xing's face. He had already deeply understood his situation. He was weak and isolated. This was a more complicated environment than he had ever been in before. He needed people he could trust.
The atmosphere was a little serious. Xiao Yuanqing was an experienced and prudent person. He was good at observing people's words and expressions. When Xiao Yuanqing saw Chen Xing's expression, his heart tightened. He knew that Chen Xing had high hopes for him. Xiao Yuanqing nodded solemnly and didn't say much. Xiao Yuanqing knew that his actions in the future were more convincing than words.
"Sit down and eat. Let's not talk about work." Chen Xing squeezed a smile on his face and asked the two to sit down.
At this moment, Zhang Ruoming also felt that his old classmate was not in a good mood. His face also became serious and less smiling. For a moment, the room became gloomy. Chen Xing had something on his mind, while Xiao Yuanqing sat upright and still. He looked at Chen Xing with awe and gratitude in his eyes. This time, he was transferred to the position of deputy director of the Municipal Government. His rank had been promoted to the level of deputy director. If the promotion of rank made Xiao Yuanqing happy, then he was really excited to be able to enter the government office and have close contact with the leaders of the Municipal Government. This meant that he would have greater potential in the future. The key was that he was now also in the sight of Chen Xing.
The arrival of Chen Xing was soon known by Lu Xiaojing. She came to the room where Chen Xing was. Lu Xiaojing was as straightforward and forthright as ever. As soon as Lu Xiaojing arrived, she made a toast to Chen Xing. "Mayor Chen, thank you for upholding justice. Everyone in the hotel can't thank you enough."
"Miss Lu, are you secretly scolding me now?" Chen Xing smiled and gestured Lu Xiaojing to sit down. Chen Xing had a good impression of this generous woman in front of him.
"Mayor Chen, you must be joking. How dare I scold you in private? I can't thank you enough." Lu Xiaojing was embarrassed. When Chen Xing said that he would ask about it, she did think that it was Chen Xing's excuse. She secretly scolded Chen Xing for being the same as other officials.
"You don't have to thank me. This is my duty. To be honest, you should scold me. As the mayor, I didn't manage the department well, so I should apologize to you." Chen Xing smiled and poured himself a glass of wine. He gestured to Lu Xiaojing and drank it in one gulp.
"No, no, Mayor Chen, don't do this. I can't accept it." Lu Xiaojing was scared and waved her hands. She looked at Chen Xing in a different way. This mayor was really different from those officials she knew.
Chen Xing's behavior made Xiao Yuanqing, who was on the side, also think about it. The understanding of a person was undoubtedly formed from the little impressions formed in the details. Xiao Yuanqing was also surprised by the side that Chen Xing showed today.
"How is the business of the hotel going back to normal?" Chen Xing smiled gently.
Lu Xiaojing could only smile bitterly. "Mayor Chen, the business of the hotel is no different from before, or even worse. Those people from the Industry and Commerce and Taxation Bureau don't come to harass us anymore. Instead, a group of hooligans came to make trouble in the hotel these days. They are more abominable than the people from the Industry and Commerce and Taxation Bureau. At least they don't dare to do anything to the guests. The hooligans are unscrupulous. They deliberately tease the guests and fight with them when they don't agree with them. Now, no one dares to come to eat."
"No police?" Chen Xing frowned. "This is really strange. Who did Jin Du Hotel offend?"
