Entering the officialdom by mistake and getting promoted quickly

Lay the foundation!

Cutting the ribbon!

With so many leaders coming to participate, a festive scene must be created.

Although the Qingshan Township Government has been poor for a long time, this time it decided to spend a lot of money for the sake of appearance and dignity.

The application was submitted by Executive Deputy Township Chief Xia Shuo, and Township Chief Wang Yunxiang solemnly reviewed and approved it, and then submitted it to Party Committee Secretary Wang Gaoshan for his signature, setting a fund of up to 5 yuan for the event.

500 yuan sounds like a lot of money.

However, even in the early 90s, it was still shabby for a township government.

It's pitiful to say that the 500 yuan was borrowed. The township finance could no longer afford a penny, so it borrowed a sum from the fruit factory in advance.

Groundbreaking activities for such a major economic project...

Almost all city and county leaders were present...

However, Qingshan Township is only willing to spend 500 yuan to create a scene, which is really a kind of thinking of the poor who are used to living in poverty.

County Magistrate Huang was very angry about this!

The second-in-command of Hedong County originally did not want to participate in the event, but he hurried over because he heard that city leaders were coming.

Not only did he rush over, but he also showed off his power with a straight face. He went directly to Wang Gaoshan, the party secretary, and gave him a stern reprimand.

"what happened?"

"Comrade Wang Gaoshan, please explain to me."

"So many leaders from the city and county put aside their work to lay the foundation stone. It's such a solemn scene. Look what you have done."

"Is this scene worthy of an investment of 200 million yuan?"

"Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if this scene spreads out?"

"Tell me, please explain to me."

In the officialdom, the first-level officials suppressed people to death. Faced with the county magistrate's questioning, Wang Gaoshan made repeated self-examinations.

It's just that although Wang Gaoshan repeatedly criticized him, he was still an old man in the officialdom, so he changed the subject and directly pushed the 'responsibility' to Wang Yunxiang, deliberately encouraging him: "County Magistrate, you can't do this. It’s my fault. Economic activities are led by the government, and you should ask Township Chief Wang.”

So, County Magistrate Huang went to find Wang Yunxiang.

Although Wang Yunxiang is only 28 years old, he is very skilled in politics. When faced with the county magistrate's questioning, this guy also voted 1 and said directly: "County magistrate, don't ask me about this. Comrade Xia Shuo is not willing to spend money. , you should ask him about this matter."

After two consecutive excuses, County Magistrate Huang was filled with anger. With this anger, he approached Xia Shuo.

However, when Xia Shuo faced his question, his answer was even more exciting.

Xia Shuo stretched out his hand, like a beggar, and said pitifully to him: "County Magistrate, you came just in time. Our Qingshan Township is really poor, and the township's finances can no longer be solved."

"You criticized me for not being willing to spend money. In fact, I also want to cause a scene. How about you help us reimburse the activity expenses first?"

Xia Shuo's answer stunned County Magistrate Huang.

After a long while, the county magistrate just snorted and said: "I didn't expect that you, Xia Shuo, at such a young age, actually learned to ask for money. You have only been working for a few days, what are you not learning? I really have to learn this.”

Xia Shuo smiled playfully, as if he was all ears, but he kept his arms stretched out, as if begging the county magistrate for money.

County Magistrate Huang was bored, glared angrily, and asked, "How much did you spend on this event?"

Xia Shuo said quickly: "Not much, 5000 yuan."

He directly overstated the number by 10 times.

County Magistrate Huang turned blue with anger and angrily shouted: "Fart, you kid is treating me like a fool. The scene is so shabby, how dare you tell me that you spent 5000 yuan? Believe it or not, I will ask the Discipline Inspection Commission to come and investigate. Check you for corruption."

Xia Shuo was exposed by him, and suddenly became a little embarrassed, and quickly changed his words: "2500, a total of 2500 was spent. I was wrong just now, I deliberately said twice as much."

County Magistrate Huang glared at him and yelled again: "I'll give you one last chance."

Xia Shuo had no choice but to confess and said honestly: "500 yuan, a total of 500 yuan spent."

As a result, County Magistrate Huang became even more furious and reprimanded loudly: "You are only willing to spend 500 yuan for such an important foundation laying activity? You kid, you kid..."

He seemed so angry that he was half speechless.

Xia Shuo sighed and explained softly: "There is no way, we are used to being poor. In fact, we also know that the situation is shabby, but we really can't come up with the money financially. For the 500 yuan, we still need to borrow money from the fruit factory As for...the investment in their project has not yet been realized, we borrowed a sum of money from them first, which is very embarrassing to say the least."

County Magistrate Huang's eyes were glaring and he suddenly asked: "Before, you went to the south to sell pine mushrooms, and you seemed to have sent back a huge sum of 1 yuan."

Xia Shuo sighed again and said truthfully: "It's all spent, it's been spent long ago. 10 yuan of it was distributed to the people of Songlin Village, and the remaining 10 yuan was put into the financial account. Although it was put into the township's finance account, but only stayed on the account for a few days.”

County Magistrate Huang frowned slightly and asked, "You spent all 10 yuan in a few days? Are you a big fish and a rich man?"

Xia Shuo gave a bitter smile and said: "How dare you eat so much fish and meat, even green onions and garlic? This 1 yuan sounds like a lot, but it doesn't cost much at all. It's just to repay the salaries of teachers in the township. More than 10 yuan was spent on that day.”

"Then there are still close to 4?" County Magistrate Huang interrogated with a burning gaze.

Xia Shuo said 'hey' and said very bachelorly: "Repaired a few broken roads, helped some poor people, plus food distributed to five-guaranteed households in the countryside, and part of the expenses for helping out-of-school children... "

"My Lord, do you think this money is enough?"

County Magistrate Huang was silent.

After a long time, the county magistrate snorted coldly and said: "I don't care about the past, but in today's situation, you Qingshan Township cannot be embarrassed."

He paused slightly as he spoke, and then continued: "With so many leaders from the city participating, the secretary and the mayor will be arriving soon. If you lose the scene here, it will be equivalent to the loss of the whole Hedong County."

Xia Shuo took the opportunity to speak and asked with great anticipation: "How about you give us some money?"

County Magistrate Huang visibly hesitated.

In these days, the entire north was poor, and the finances of any level 1 government were not wealthy.

It's just that although they are not rich, the county level is definitely better than the township level, so the county magistrate hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded very dissatisfied and said: "You make a report, and I will approve the note. I will give you a total of 2000 yuan, and I will give it to you immediately. I set things up."

Xia Shuo was surprised and happy, and said quickly: "Okay, okay, I will make a report now. Mr. County Magistrate, can I give an oral report?"

County Magistrate Huang flew up and kicked Xia Shuo directly in the butt, reprimanding: "Oral report? Do you think I am the king of the mountain? Hurry up and write a note, and I will sign it for you on the spot."

Xia Shuo ran away and quickly returned with a piece of paper in his hand and handed it to the county magistrate with a smile.

County Magistrate Huang took it and took a look, and his nose suddenly became so angry that he said angrily: "I said 1 yuan, how did it become 2000 yuan? You dare to take advantage of the situation, believe it or not, I won't approve even a penny?"

Xia Shuo chuckled evilly and whispered deliberately: "Leader, leader, calm down, calm down. The municipal party committee secretary and the mayor will be here soon. We must stir up the situation."

County Magistrate Huang's face was livid with anger. He had no choice but to pinch his nose and admit it. He said angrily: "I can finally see it. You are a bunch of scoundrels in Qingshan Township. That old man Wang Gaoshan has taught you nothing to do."

With a big wave of his hand, he signed for approval.

Got the 5000 yuan note.

However, although County Magistrate Huang had approved the note, it was impossible for the county finance bureau to remit the money immediately, so Xia Shuo took the note non-stop and found the county finance director who came to participate in the event.

The Finance Director is an old acquaintance, a classmate in the junior high school class not long ago. He used to be the deputy secretary of Xianggong Township, but now he is the God of Wealth in Hedong County.

Xia Shuo directly handed over the note, deliberately dragging it like 1 million yuan, and said: "Dear Yunkaishan God of Wealth, please read the approval note from County Magistrate Huang, it's 258 yuan, don't owe me too long."

"I will pay this money out of my own pocket first, but I will remit it as soon as you get back."

"If you don't remit it, be careful. I'll come to your house and stay there for a month. I'll even eat and take out everything you need."

"By the way, I'll touch my sister-in-law's butt to show off my majesty as a brother-in-law."

"Hmph, how are you? Are you afraid?"

"If you are afraid, please God of Wealth keep this in mind. Do it for me as soon as you get back and remit the 5000 yuan as soon as possible."

Faced with Xia Shuo's deliberate "glib tone", Yun Kaishan was both amused and helpless, saying: "I am not the God of Wealth, but you are the God of Wealth. Who in the entire Yicheng City doesn't know that your partner has hundreds of dollars in his hands?" Thousands of funds.”

Xia Shuo looked righteous, but in reality he was glib. He said again: "Comrade Yun Kaishan, I have to criticize you. That's not my partner's money, that's her uncle's money. Besides, public is public and private is private. Otherwise, I’d better go to your house to eat dumplings, and praise my sister-in-law’s good craftsmanship by the way, hehe.”

Because of his young age, he can make jokes, and this is indeed the custom in the north. The younger brother can tease his sister-in-law with naughty words.

Yun Kaishan couldn't talk to Xia Shuo, and if he continued talking, his wife would definitely be in trouble, so he reached out angrily and took the note, pretending to be angry: "Don't come to me next time if something happens."

Xia Shuo said proudly, "I'll see you next time if something happens."

Yun Kaishan punched him angrily.

……

The activity fund of 5000 yuan has been determined.

Since the county will bear the cost, Qingshan Township will definitely no longer have to worry about it. Xia Shuo hurriedly called a few officials and started to give instructions on every detail.

Unexpectedly, just when he was instructing to purchase the supplies for the event, he suddenly noticed that the eyes of several officials were all wrong. They seemed to be looking behind him, and their expressions showed restraint.

Xia Shuo was startled at first, then turned around to look, only to find that Secretary Mei Yu was standing behind him, looking at him with a smile.

In such a public place, Xia Shuo showed off his posture and said respectfully, "Hello, Secretary Mei."
