The exterior of the building was decorated luxuriously and stylishly. Ceramic tiles were placed where they should be, while marble was placed where they should be. Inside the building, the floor was clean and tidy, the windows were bright and clean, and there was a complete set of facilities. There were many windows for handling affairs, and it really did look like a government office.
Li Rui walked in front of the signboard and looked for the passport application window. After looking carefully, he took the stairs to the second floor. After going upstairs, he turned left and walked a dozen steps until he was in front of the immigration control window. The entire east side of this floor was also the county's Public Security Bureau's office.
Inside the window, a young man in a police uniform was sitting in front of a computer. He was eating a pancake in his left hand and using his right hand to move the mouse. He was playing a computer game, but he was not playing poker today. He was playing billiards.
Li Rui sighed and coughed to attract the young man's attention. He said, "Comrade, I want to apply for a passport. May I know if today …"
"I can't, I can't. I can't go online. The network is broken. Come back in two days!"
The young man did not wait for him to finish his sentence and rejected him with a set of well-practiced words. He then turned back and focused on playing his computer game.
Li Rui pointed at his computer screen and said, "That's not right. Isn't your billiards game online? Why can't you go online?"
The young man was exposed, but his expression did not change. He said casually, "What do you know?! When I said you can't go online, I didn't mean you can't go online. I meant you can't go online. Intranet, understand? Go, go, come back another day. You can connect another day. "
"You'll be able to connect them in another day? Are you sure? If I come back another day, I can't connect? "
Li Rui was serious with him because he wanted to see how shameless this young man could be.
The young man had just hit a ball, but it did not go into the hole. He cursed and said impatiently, "If you can't connect, then wait. Why are you in such a hurry?"
Li Rui was not angry. He teased him and said, "Of course I'm anxious. I'm going abroad next week. Do you think I'm anxious?"
The young man turned his head and looked at him with pity and disdain. He sized him up and said, "You said you wanted to go abroad, but you didn't inquire about how long it would take to get a passport. You're in such a hurry to go out, but can you go out? Applying for a passport will take at least a month. It might even take two or three months. Tsk, tsk. You want to go abroad next week? Don't mess with me. "
Li Rui pretended to be surprised and exclaimed, "That long? One of my friends applied for a passport in the city, and it was done in a week. "
"Bang!" The young man sneered and said, "Then why don't you go and do it yourself? Why are you wasting your breath here?" Then he ignored him and turned back to continue playing billiards.
Li Rui decided to end the conversation here and did not ask any more questions. He took out his phone, opened the camera app, changed it to video mode, and began to record the scene of the young man playing the game. It was funny. The young man was so focused and serious that he did not notice Li Rui's actions outside the window.
Li Rui recorded for more than half a minute. He also recorded the name of the window into the video. Finally, he stopped the camera and walked to another window.
Li Rui came to the window of the county's Public Security Bureau's Traffic Police Brigade. He saw a policewoman in her mid-twenties. She was in her mid-twenties and was chatting with two young women. The two young women were sitting in front of a computer desk. They seemed to be administrative staff, but the two women were not in uniform. They seemed to be auxiliary police.
The young woman with long hair closest to the window noticed Li Rui and came over. She asked, "What are you doing?" Although her tone was not polite, she was not rude.
Li Rui said, "I want to ask if I can pay for a violation here."
The young woman waved her hand and said, "This is not a violation. You can go to the Department of Motor Vehicles. You can get a license plate for a violation there."
Li Rui thanked her and left the window. He walked down the stairs to the first floor. After half a circle, he suddenly found the window of the Environmental Protection Bureau. He thought that he was not in charge of the Public Security Bureau, but he was in charge of the Environmental Protection Bureau. Now that he saw it, he had to go and take a look. Even if the environment in the center was not good, at least he had to ensure that the departments he was in charge of had a good working style.
He walked to the window and saw two female employees in environmental protection uniforms sitting inside. One was in her early twenties and looked like she had just graduated from university. The other was around thirty-six or thirty-seven years old and was already a middle-aged woman. The younger one was leaning back on the computer chair and watching a video comfortably. The older one was also very busy. She had her head down and was writing something on a paper document the size of a book on the desk.
Li Rui saw that although the younger one was not very good at watching videos during working hours, at least the older one was working. He was secretly pleased. Just as he was about to say something, a middle-aged man suddenly ran over and squeezed him to stand in front of the window. He smiled and asked the female employee inside, "Beauty, is the permit out?"
The woman heard him and looked up at him. She smiled at him and said, "It's being done. Wait a moment. I'm almost done with the information. I'll give you the stamp right away!"
Li Rui was even happier when he saw this. He thought that the employees under his management were really good. Not only were they able to do things, but they were also very polite to the people who were working. When he reorganized the administrative service center, he could use the Environmental Protection Bureau's window as a model for other employees to learn from.
The woman took out the official seal from the drawer and tested the ink on the waste paper. Seeing that the ink was still quite full, she stamped the permit. After stamping it, she put away the official seal and checked it from top to bottom. After confirming that there were no problems, she smiled and took the permit. She handed it out of the window and said, "Take a look and see if there are any problems."
The man smiled and took it. He said, "No problem. You handled it. What problems can there be?" As he spoke, he put the permit on the windowsill and took out two packs of Zhonghua cigarettes from his bag. He handed it in through the window and said, "Thank you for your hard work. This is just a small token of my appreciation. You must accept it!"
When Li Rui saw this scene, his eyes instantly widened. He stared at the woman to see if she would accept it.
The woman didn't disappoint him. She smiled and refused. "There's no need. It's not like you're an outsider. You don't have to be so polite …"
The man pushed it in and said, "Aiya, just accept it. I'll have to trouble you in the future. Take it. I'm busy over there. I'll take my leave first." After he finished speaking, he took the permit and turned to leave.
"You're really … too polite …"
The woman stood up and watched the man walk out. She sighed but didn't chase after him. Instead, there was a look of satisfaction and joy in her eyes. When the man was far away, she shouted again, "Take care!"
After she said this, she acted as if she had just noticed Li Rui and asked, "What are you doing?" After she asked this question, she didn't wait for Li Rui to answer. She sat back down and stuffed one of the packs of cigarettes into the handbag on the office desk. She handed the other pack to the young female employee who was watching the video and said, "It's from Shengtian Construction Company."
The young female employee refused. "Sister Wang, take it all back and let my brother smoke it. I'm not married and I don't have a boyfriend. Even if I take it back, no one will smoke it."
The woman, Sister Wang, smiled and said, "Take it back and let your father smoke it." After she finished speaking, she put it on her lap.
Li Rui stared at the huge reversal. He finally understood why Sister Wang was so polite to the man just now. It was because the two of them knew each other. In addition, she was completely pretending to be polite. In the end, she was the one who benefited and even used her power for personal gain. He tried hard to recall the name of the permit just now. He said, "I … I also applied for that permit just now. Something about a permit for noise emission at night. It's that, right?" As he spoke, he secretly turned on the recording app on his phone.
Sister Wang didn't even look at him and asked, "Did you bring all the information?"
"No …" Li Rui didn't even blush as he made up a lie. "I just came here to find out what information I need to prepare. Also, how much does it cost?"
Sister Wang turned to look at him strangely and said, "You're asking me what information I need to prepare? Aren't you too much of an amateur? Is this your first time doing this? "
Li Rui nodded and said, "Yes, this is my first time doing this."
Sister Wang said, "Then didn't your old colleagues tell you what you need to prepare?"
Li Rui smiled and said, "I haven't asked yet. I'll ask later. How much does it cost?"
Sister Wang shook her head and said, "We don't charge."
Li Rui was puzzled and said, "Since you don't charge, why did that person give you cigarettes?"
Sister Wang's expression changed when she heard this. She looked at him impatiently and said, "If you don't have the information prepared, then go back and prepare it. Stop gossiping. What does it have to do with you that someone gave me something? Can't they thank me? "
The young female employee who was watching the video inside heard this and said unhappily, "What is he doing? Why is he asking about this when he has nothing better to do? Tell him to get lost! "
Li Rui was furious when he heard this. He looked at her and said, "Comrade, you're so young. Why don't you learn to be more polite? Every time you open your mouth, you curse. Is this how you treat your employees? "
When the young female clerk saw that he dared to challenge her authority, she was so angry that she jumped up and threw her phone on the table. She angrily walked to the window and said, "Are you here to do business? Who doesn't learn to be polite? Do I need to be polite to a guy like you who is looking for trouble? Get the hell out of here. Don't f * cking look for trouble in front of our window. If you do, I'll call security. " After saying this, she said to Sister Wang, "In the future, even if he has the information prepared, we won't do it for him. F * ck, who does he think he is to play this game with us?"
Sister Wang stared at Li Rui with a gloomy face and said, "Get out of here. Don't cause trouble here. Do you think that the Environmental Protection Bureau is easy to bully?"
