Jiang Wei shook her head and said, "I don't know. Who knows how long it will take?" Li Rui narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the fire door of the stairwell. He thought for a while and said, "I still have something to do. I'll go and see if Shi is back after I'm done. If he's back, I'll bring you to him. If he's not back, I'll find time to call him. "
Jiang Wei asked curiously, "What are you doing? Are you doing it in the bureau? Are you related to the bureau? " Li Rui said, "The bureau wants to build self-built houses for employees. Director Zhang gave me a quota. I'm here to pay the money and sign the agreement." Jiang Wei was so surprised that she could not close her mouth. She said, "You're no longer a member of the bureau. How can you get a quota?" Li Rui smiled and said, "What do you mean? Was it jealousy or jealousy? Although I'm no longer a member of the bureau, I'll always be a member of the bureau. Why can't I get a quota? " Jiang Wei pursed her lips and smiled. She whispered, "I know the director wants to flatter you. That's why he gave you a quota. Oh, you're really a big shot. Even the director wants to flatter you. " Li Rui said ambiguously, "No matter who I become, I'll always be your good teacher." Jiang Wei could not help but blush again. She said shyly, "I know. You go do your thing first. We'll talk later."
Li Rui asked Jiang Wei where the temporary office of the self-built management office was located. He climbed up a few flights of stairs and found the female treasurer with the surname Zhang in a temporary finance office on the east end of the fifth floor. She was a very kind elder sister.
They exchanged a few pleasantries and got to know each other. Then, the woman gave him a detailed introduction of the payment, the signing of the agreement, and some things to pay attention to. His situation was considered a special case. Under the care of Director Zhang, it was a special case. Therefore, many processes were simplified. After busying himself for less than half an hour, the agreement was signed and the photocopies of some documents were submitted. He was done for the time being. The only thing left was to transfer the money. However, he had to go to the bank and could not do it in the finance office. Sister Zhang could only pay in cash.
In fact, the correct procedure should be to first pay the house and then sign the agreement, but Li Rui just happened to twist it. He acted first and reported later. The reason why the finance lady could accept it was because of Director Zhang's care.
After leaving the finance office, Li Rui called Jiang Wei to ask if the director of the bureau, Shi Dalin, had returned. Jiang Wei told him that Shi Dalin had just returned and was drinking tea in his office. Li Rui rushed over without hesitation.
The Water Conservancy Bureau had a total of 20 to 30 people. Because of the large number of people, it was divided into four small offices. The two deputy directors didn't have separate offices. They worked with their subordinates according to the work they were in charge of. The director had a separate office, which was also one of the signs of a leader.
Li Rui did not call Jiang Wei. He went straight to Shi Dalin's office and knocked on the door. After three short knocks and two long knocks on the door, no one answered.
Li Rui secretly thought that it couldn't be so coincidental that Shi Dalin ran out again in the short one minute he was on his way here.
Just when he thought of this, the door was suddenly opened from the inside. However, it was only a small gap. Half a face appeared in the gap and said impatiently, "What's the matter? Don't worry. Let's talk in the afternoon. Didn't you see that I … "
This person was Shi Dalin. Just when he said this, he saw that the person standing outside the door was not a subordinate of the bureau, but Li Rui, who used to work in the flood control office and was later promoted to the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee like a rocket. When he recognized Shi Dalin, he was surprised and confused. He did not know why Shi Dalin was looking for him. However, he quickly put on a surprised expression and opened the door halfway. He quickly walked out and handed both of his hands to Shi Dalin. He said with a smile, "Oh, I was wondering why I heard the magpies when I came back. It turns out that we have a distinguished guest. Director Li, why are you back so good? Why didn't you tell me you were coming back? Sigh, if I knew, I would have welcomed you properly. "
Shi Dalin was already 45 years old. Li Rui could not help but laugh when he heard Shi Dalin calling himself a brother. He shook hands with him and said, "Director Shi, you're too polite. I came back this time for some personal matters. I happened to pass by your office and wanted to come and see you. Although I'm no longer in the bureau, our friendship is still there, right? Haha, I wonder if Director Shi would like to welcome me in? "
The office director of the municipal government's department was theoretically at the section-chief level. However, there were also some people who were capable, experienced, or had a background. In short, they could enter the bureau's Party Committee by chance and become a deputy section-chief. They could change from a servant to a leader of the bureau.
Unfortunately, Shi Dalin was not that lucky. After so many years of being the office director of the Water Conservancy Bureau, he was still at the section-chief level. Although he could be considered a middle-level leader in the bureau, he was still nothing outside.
Of course, the so-called "outside" also depended on where it was. If it was in a county, the section-chief level was the main leader of the township bureau. But if it was in a city, where there were many section-chief level leaders, then it was really not worth mentioning.
Shi Dalin knew that Li Rui's so-called "director" title was actually just a section chief, which was the same rank as him. But the problem was that he had another identity. He was the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee's Secretary! This identity was very valuable. In the whole of Qingyang City, there was almost no other position with such a high status. This identity directly raised his actual status. He was just a section chief, but when he went outside, he was more important than a real section chief. It was said that even the bureau's boss, Zhang Jianshe, wanted to flatter him. After he left the Water Conservancy Bureau, Zhang Jianshe even organized a publicity campaign to learn from him. Even the bureau chief wanted to flatter him. How could a small office director dare to treat him badly?
Thinking of this, Shi Dalin's face was full of joy. He turned sideways and said, "What are you talking about? Welcome, I welcome you very much. I can't wait for you to come to my office sometime. Come, come in, come in! "After he said that, he opened the door.
Li Rui smiled and walked in. But he saw a person standing in the room. This person was none other than his eldest disciple, Jiang Wei, whom he had just hugged and kissed not long ago. He was very confused. He had just called her. Why did she come to Shi Dalin's office in such a short time?
Jiang Wei looked at him resentfully. She did not say anything. It was as if she had been wronged.
When Li Rui saw her expression, he instantly understood. He guessed that Shi Dalin had just called her over to tease her. Fortunately, he came in time and saved her.
When Shi Dalin saw Li Rui staring at Jiang Wei, he smiled and said, "This is Jiang Wei from our office. Xiao Jiang, you must know Director Li. She used to work in your Flood Control Office." Li Rui laughed and said, "Not only do I know her, Director Shi, but she's also my disciple." Then he said to Jiang Wei, "Why didn't you greet your master when you saw him?"
Jiang Wei had a pure heart. How could she not understand? He was deliberately trying to get closer to her in front of Shi Dalin. He wanted to use his power to protect her. So she called out obediently, "Master!" Then she complained, "Didn't I call you that just now?" Why do you want me to call you that again? "Li Rui chuckled as he looked at her. He thought to himself," Master can never get enough of hearing you call him that. "Unfortunately, he couldn't say this out loud. Otherwise, it would definitely create a little ambiguity.
When Shi Dalin saw this scene, he was very surprised and said, "Ah, how did Xiao Jiang become your disciple?" Li Rui smiled and explained, "Director Shi, don't you already know? She used to work in the Flood Control Office. When she first came to the Flood Control Office, she didn't know anything. I was the one who taught her, so we called each other master and disciple. "Shi Dalin was surprised and happy. He said," Is that so? I didn't expect you two to have such a relationship. Tsk, tsk. No wonder Xiao Jiang is so young, but her ability is already so outstanding. She's one of the best in the Bureau. So it was you who taught her. This is really like the old saying, 'there are no weak soldiers under a strong general'. Hehe. "
Li Rui was secretly amused when he saw Shi Dalin flattering him. This person was indeed the Director of the Bureau. His flattery skills were first-class.
Shi Dalin said to Jiang Wei, "Xiao Jiang, don't just stand there. Hurry up and make tea for your master." Jiang Wei responded and was about to get busy.
Li Rui raised his hand to stop her and said, "It's okay. I'll leave after sitting for a while. Hehe."
Shi Dalin said, "How can that be? If you leave without having a drink, won't it seem like I don't treat my guests well? Hehe, Xiao Jiang, hurry up and make tea. "Then he asked her to sit on the sofa.
The two of them sat on the sofa and chatted for a while. Although the two of them were old acquaintances, they didn't know each other very well. They didn't have a deep relationship, so they didn't have much in common. They only talked about the daily affairs of the Water Conservancy Bureau and the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee. Shi Dalin was very curious about the Municipal Party Committee. He asked some interesting questions and also asked about the Secretary-General and the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee. Li Rui didn't hide anything from him. As long as it didn't involve too much personal privacy, he told him everything. In this way, the two of them chatted very well.
