Kang Zhiwei was a failure as an antique and cultural relic dealer. After working for so many years, he didn't even save a few hundred thousand yuan. Now that he heard that the Tang Su offered him an annual salary of 500,000 yuan and a red packet at the end of the year, he was so happy that snot bubbles almost came out of his nose. He hurriedly agreed.
Li Rui gave him the contact information of the Tang Su and asked him to get ready to go to Shanghai as soon as possible.
Kang Zhiwei was supported by his benefactor. In the future, not only would he have a huge income, but he would also have a job with a very good future. Naturally, he was very grateful to him. When the beer was on the table, he toasted him three times …
When Li Rui returned to his father-in-law, Lu Zhouxing's Standing Committee Building, Lu Zhouxing hadn't come back yet. He just drank a few cups of strong tea to sober up and chatted with He Suli and Qingman.
Lu Zhouxing didn't get home until it was almost nine o 'clock. He was happy to see his daughter and son-in-law. After chatting with them for a while, he revealed to Li Rui a piece of news. The Executive Deputy Governor, Qian Haibo, would go to Qingyang City in the near future, if not next week or next week, to check the progress of the preparation of the "Council of Chiefs". After all, the "Council of Chiefs" would open in less than a month. If he didn't check it now, he didn't have the time to do so.
Of course, this matter had no impact on Li Rui. It also had no impact on the leaders of the party and government in Qingyang City, such as Song Chaoyang and Yu Heping. They just accompanied the fourth most important person in the province to the "Council of Chiefs" in Shuanghe County for a visit. But there was a key point here. The progress of the "Council of Chiefs" must be satisfactory to Qian Haibo. Otherwise, if this great leader was unhappy, Song Chaoyang and Yu Heping wouldn't have an easy time.
Li Rui secretly remembered this matter. He planned to report the latest situation to his boss when he returned to Qingyang City tomorrow and let the city and county officials check it first, in case there were any mistakes when Qian Haibo went there.
The night passed in silence.
The next day, Li Rui and Lu Zhouxing said goodbye to their three relatives after breakfast and drove back to Qingyang City. On the way back, they thought about visiting Zhang Zixiao, but on second thought, they didn't have much time. Besides, they had something important to report to their leader, so they decided to go back to Qingyang City first. If they really missed Zixiao, they could call her and ask her to come to Qingyang City for a small gathering. Coincidentally, Qingman wouldn't be at home for the next few months …
After returning to Qingyang, Li Rui went straight to the Municipal Party Committee. When he arrived at the office, he saw that his boss, Song Chaoyang, was indeed working overtime. He quickly informed him.
Qingyang City didn't know anything about this, and the provincial government didn't send any notice, so Song Chaoyang didn't hear about it beforehand. When he heard about it, he was naturally shocked. He said, "The province is going to conduct a surprise inspection?"
Li Rui shook his head. "It shouldn't be. Governor Qian isn't in charge of poverty alleviation, so there's no reason for him to suddenly want to check the progress of the CPC Council. It should be a task assigned to him by Secretary Huang or the governor. But the schedule hasn't been confirmed yet, so the provincial government didn't send any notice."
Song Chaoyang nodded. "Then we have to pay attention to it immediately. I'll contact the mayor right away and discuss who will form an inspection team to check the progress of the city's conference preparation team. At the same time, we'll go to the main venue of the CPC Council in Shuanghe County to check the preparation of the venue." As he spoke, he picked up the landline.
Li Rui returned to the outer office and sat down. Just as he turned on his computer, his phone suddenly rang. There was a text message. He took it out and saw that it was sent by that extremely difficult woman, Qin Lina. The content was very simple. She thanked him for helping her get the promotion and wanted to treat him to dinner tonight. She also wanted to invite Yuan Jingjing along.
Li Rui missed Yuan Jingjing, but he didn't want to provoke that woman, Qin Lina. He immediately replied. "I'm sorry, Sis. The provincial leaders are coming to check on the work. I'm a little busy. Let's talk another day. You don't have to be so polite."
After sending this message, Li Rui wanted to ask Yuan Jingjing out for dinner tonight. But when he thought of the jadeite hairpin in the car, he threw away the idea. He would just accompany Jie Yu tonight and find his old boss another day to catch up.
In the afternoon, a visitor came to the Municipal Party Committee Secretary's office. This person could be said to be Li Rui's old friend. He was the former director of Qingyang City's Beijing office, Shao Yugang. Before he came, he first called Li Rui to confirm that Song Chaoyang was working overtime in the office. Only then did he arrange to meet with him. As for the purpose of the visit, it was very clear. Qingyang City's Beijing office had been disbanded. As the director, Shao Yugang had no job, so he could only ask Song Chaoyang for a new job.
Strangely enough, during the intensive reorganization of the department level cadres in the city, Song Chaoyang didn't arrange for Shao Yugang to be part of it. It was unknown whether it was because he didn't expect him to return to Qingyang City so soon or because he had more long-term considerations.
Li Rui welcomed Shao Yugang into the room. After shaking hands with him, they exchanged some pleasantries. When he was about to inform him, he was stopped by him.
"Brother Xiao Rui, look at this!"
Shao Yugang held Li Rui's hand with his right hand and didn't let go. He pointed at the corner of his mouth with his left hand.
Li Rui didn't need him to point. He could already see that there was a string of big red blisters at the corner of his mouth. The blisters were red and poisonous. It looked painful. He said in shock, "Director Shao, what's wrong with you?"
Shao Yugang said with a distressed expression, "I'm suffering from excessive internal heat! I've been back for more than a week, but the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee hasn't talked to me. There's also no news of a new job in the city. I'm so anxious that I can't sleep at night. My mouth is full of blisters, and my mouth is full of … "
The director of the Beijing office, who used to be high-spirited and powerful, had lost all his bearing and demeanor. He was like an abandoned woman, showing Li Rui his most embarrassing side without any consideration.
Of course, he also knew that Li Rui was a kind and honest person. He would never laugh at him.
Li Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He sighed and said, "Director Shao, why are you doing this? The secretary will remember you and will definitely arrange a better position for you. "
Shao Yugang said softly, "I understand, but I'm just anxious." He then asked nervously, "Is the Secretary unhappy that I came uninvited?"
Li Rui shook his head and said, "No, no, definitely not. If the Secretary is unhappy, he won't see you. I'll inform the Secretary now. "He then walked to the door and knocked.
Shao Yugang looked at the door with a panicked expression. He didn't know what would happen if he walked in.
After Li Rui informed the Secretary, he led Shao Yugang in.
Song Chaoyang was very enthusiastic. He got up from his desk and came out to personally welcome Shao Yugang.
Shao Yugang was flattered. He quickly walked forward, bent his back, and reached out to shake hands with him. He said, "Sorry for wasting your precious time, Secretary."
Song Chaoyang smiled and said, "It's not a waste of time. Haha, Yugang, you don't have to be so restrained.
When Sun Shuqin was hospitalized in Beijing, Shao Yugang, who was then the director of the Beijing Office, was busy. He helped Song Chaoyang and his wife a lot. Although he didn't achieve much, his meticulous service won Song Chaoyang's recognition. This recognition was deeper than the recognition from his work. As the saying goes, "A friend in need is a friend indeed."
Because of this, Song Chaoyang didn't play any tricks to keep Shao Yugang in suspense or test his patience. Instead, he went straight to the point. "There was a major cadre adjustment a while ago. The reason why I didn't arrange for you to be part of it was because there was a suitable position for you that wasn't available at that time. Of course, that position hasn't been vacated yet. You'll have to wait a few more days. "
Shao Yugang saw that Song Chaoyang still remembered him. He was very grateful and said, "Secretary, I was too impatient. I'm sorry …"
Song Chaoyang's eyes swept across the fire bubbles at the corner of his mouth and said, "I can understand how you feel. This is human nature. You don't have to say sorry. The Secretary of the Southern District Committee, Yang Huaze, is getting old. He will be retiring in a few days. I plan to let you replace him … "
There were three districts in Qingyang City. The Southern District was the most developed, had the highest GDP, and the largest population. Naturally, it was the most important district among the dozens of districts in Qingyang City. Being the Secretary of the District Committee in this district was naturally much more powerful than being the Secretary of the other districts. There were even rumors that the province intended to remove the United Front Minister from the Standing Committee of the Qingyang Municipal Party Committee and replace him with the Secretary of the Southern District Committee. Under such rumors, the position of the Southern District Committee's Secretary was naturally more dazzling.
Because of this, when Shao Yugang heard that Song Chaoyang wanted him to be the Secretary of the Southern District, his eyes suddenly shot out two rays of light. His whole body's momentum suddenly became high. He was tongue-tied and wanted to express his opinion, but he was too excited to say anything.
Song Chaoyang continued earnestly, "The Southern District is the most important district in the city. I can only rest assured if one of my own people becomes the Secretary. After you go, I hope that you can further liberate the thoughts of the district's leaders on the basis of maintaining the harmonious and stable development of the Southern District. You can open up new ideas and vigorously develop the economy. At the same time, you can rectify the atmosphere of the officialdom and set a clear example for me. With you as the benchmark, I can let the other districts learn from the Southern District and achieve my own political ideas. In other words, you are going to lay the foundation for me. I hope that you will always keep my high hopes in mind and give me a perfect report as soon as possible. Not only will you prove your ability, but you will also let the other leaders know that I made the right choice in appointing you. "
Shao Yugang was so excited that his eyes were red and moist. He said in a trembling voice, "Secretary, don't worry. I promise that I won't disappoint your high hopes and expectations. I will definitely do well …"
A few minutes later, Shao Yugang walked out with a red face. His steps were a bit unsteady as if he had just drunk alcohol inside. Li Rui was secretly amazed and went to see him off.
