Entering the officialdom by mistake and getting promoted quickly

Township Chief Wang left the Family Planning Office with an ugly expression.

Although he looked ugly, he had to take Xia Shuo with him because the County Party Committee Organization Department specifically notified Minister Mei that he wanted to meet Comrade Xia Shuo.

The Family Planning Office is only 34 meters away from the township government headquarters. Along the way, Township Chief Wang had a droopy face and never spoke to Xia Shuo.

It wasn't until he entered the township government compound that Mayor Wang reluctantly snorted and said forcefully: "Even if Minister Mei comes to inspect, I still have to abide by the principles I should abide by. Regarding the unfavorable situation for you to carry out your work today, I am sure I need to report to Minister Mei..."

Xia Shuo didn't answer!

To be precise, he didn't dare to talk to her now.

He felt very uneasy.

When faced with the beating from Chief Wang, he could argue without giving in. However, when faced with the sudden arrival of Minister Mei, Xia Shuo couldn't help but feel frightened.

Everyone thought that Minister Mei was his backer, but he alone knew that this was definitely a misunderstanding.

He doesn’t know Minister Mei at all…

……

Unfortunately, when things came to pass, Xia Shuo did not dare to reveal the secret. He could only stay strong and calm and follow Township Chief Wang into the township government.

After entering the door, I found that a large group of people were already standing in the yard. Not only all the members of the township party committee were present, but even Secretary Cui was standing in the crowd. Everyone looked forward to it, obviously waiting for Minister Mei who was about to arrive. .

When these people saw Mr. Wang come back, they didn't show too much enthusiasm, but when they looked at Xia Shuo who was following behind, they waved cordially, all with smiles on their faces, as if they had a deep friendship.

Even Secretary Cui, the top leader, actually waved to Xia Shuo and shouted from a distance: "Comrade Xiao Xia, come here quickly. You will stand beside me later to welcome Minister Mei."

Faced with Secretary Cui's enthusiasm, Xia Shuo felt weak in his heart. He subconsciously spat along his lips and said slightly sarcastically: "My level is too low, so I'm not suitable to stand with the leaders."

Unexpectedly, Secretary Cui deliberately darkened his face and pretended to be displeased: "You Xiaoxia, I want to criticize you. Although you know how to be modest, today is not the time for you to be modest. Come over quickly and stand next to me, Minister Mei. We will arrive soon, and your task today is to provide a good reception... This is a task, and you are not allowed to refuse."

Xia Shuo had no choice but to walk over. He carefully chose a less conspicuous location and made up his mind to be a silent person today.

Unfortunately, Secretary Cui smiled and stretched out his hand to forcefully pull him to his side.

At this time, I vaguely heard the sound of a horn in the distance, and just a moment later, a car drove up.

This is an old-fashioned Jeep with a sense of age. From the signs of paint peeling off, it can be inferred that this Jeep is probably quite old.

Even so, everyone present was envious.

Car!

This is a car!

The entire Qingshan Township Party Committee is not yet qualified to be equipped with cars. There are only two motorcycles, which are already considered high-end means of transportation.

Compared with cars, the price of motorcycles is too low, but this matter cannot be compared because it is exclusive to the leaders of the county party committee.

As a member of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee, Minister Mei is the real power figure in charge of the entire county. Any official will be frightened, but deep down he longs to cling to this big tree.

Seeing the jeep come to a stop, Secretary Cui quickly stepped forward, respectfully opened the door, bent slightly to greet us, and said in an eager tone: "All members of the Qingshan Township Party Committee, warmly welcome the leaders!"

Minister Mei got out of the car with a smile on his face. He seemed to be in a good mood. He deliberately joked: "How come you, a hero on the battlefield, have learned how to greet and send you off now? I remember when you were reporting at the beginning of this year, I felt so excited all over my body. It still smells like iron and blood!"

Secretary Cui laughed and said: "At this time, at that time, I had just graduated from the army, and it was inevitable that I would retain some habits. Now that I have been working in the local area for more than half a year, some inappropriate habits must be changed."

Minister Mei nodded and praised: "It seems that you, as secretary, have fallen into your role very quickly."

Hearing the leader's exaggeration, Secretary Cui laughed again and said repeatedly: "I haven't done enough yet. There are many shortcomings, such as some bad habits. I kindly ask the leader to criticize me."

Minister Mei still smiled and praised again: "It's already very good."

In fact, in terms of age, Minister Mei is much younger than Secretary Cui. Minister Mei is only 35 years old this year, and Secretary Cui is already 40 years old. However, in the officialdom, seniority and inferiority are not determined by youth, so even if Minister Mei is young, But you can use a complimentary tone.

Instead, Secretary Cui must maintain a respectful posture and reflect the attitude of a subordinate at all times.

……

Today's welcome was a good start. Minister Mei said several words to Secretary Cui in succession, which can be understood as a sign of satisfaction for the entire Qingshan Township Party Committee.

Immediately afterwards, Township Chief Wang also came up.

As the second in command in the township, he also wanted to show off in front of Minister Mei. Unfortunately, this guy had no ink in his belly, and Minister Mei frowned slightly when he opened his mouth.

It seemed that this guy wanted to imitate Secretary Cui's boldness, so he also deliberately burst into laughter and said: "Minister Mei's visit has made Qingshan Township really prosperous. Everyone in the county knows that Minister Mei is a great person." What a beauty, hahahaha."

It was obviously meant to be flattering, but it sounded vulgar.

A look of displeasure flashed in Minister Mei's eyes. He suppressed his disgust and continued to smile. He said calmly: "Mr. Wang, you are also very good. It is said that your work is very tough."

This sentence already contains implicit criticism.

As the second-in-command in the township, the leader said that you have a tough attitude towards work. If you look carefully, it is clearly criticizing you for not cooperating with the work of the first-in-command.

In official language, the higher the level, the more stringent it is. Minister Mei’s mild comment is actually a very serious statement.

In front of everyone, Township Chief Wang looked embarrassed.

Fortunately, Minister Mei did not continue to criticize, obviously to save some face for the grassroots officials. The intellectual woman still smiled, looked at all the greeters present, and said in a gentle tone: "The weather is very hot, please stay out of the courtyard. Now that you're standing, come inside, it's time to get busy with work."

Although she is a guest, she can still give orders. The reason is simple. She is the leader of everyone present.

Since the leader spoke, everyone naturally did not dare not listen, so they pretended to be busy and walked back to their respective offices obediently.

Only Secretary Cui and Township Chief Wang stayed because they had to accompany the leader throughout the process.

Xia Shuo originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to sneak away and find a place to hide, but Secretary Cui suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled him directly beside him.

Secretary Cui not only dragged Xia Shuo to his side, but also deliberately pushed him forward. He smiled and said to Minister Mei: "Look, leader, this is the civil servant who just joined our Qingshan Township. During the exam half a month ago, This kid got first place in the exam."

"His name is Xia Shuo. His hometown is in a rural area, but the young man has the spirit of refusing to admit defeat. He studied for a college diploma in three years."

"After the civil service examination, he joined the Family Planning Office. Due to his outstanding work ability, he was appointed deputy director on the first day he took office."

"The young man is very motivated!"

"It is said that I went to the countryside to do work early this morning."

On the surface, these words sound normal.

But inside and outside the words, they were all hints.

Secretary Cui's words were nothing more than a subtle request for credit from Minister Mei: "Look, this is the person you are protecting. I have understood the intention of your last call and directly helped him solve the problem of deputy director level." treatment. ’

In officialdom, it's important to keep things in mind, especially when it comes to favors, and you can't express them explicitly unless absolutely necessary.

However, unexpectedly, Minister Mei seemed to be a little abnormal at this moment.

I saw her eyes staring straight at Xia Shuo, which seemed to have a touching color. After a long while, she said meaningfully: "So you are Xia Shuo. You are indeed a good young man. Work hard and you will have a bright future. .”

Secretary Cui standing next to him was obviously confused.

He stared blankly at the scene in front of him, almost not believing his eyes. If his analysis was correct, Minister Mei was clearly trying to support Xia Shuo.

Historically, when it comes to promotions in official circles, leaders have always used ambiguous words. Why did Xia Shuo directly say that he has a bright future?

"Could it be that Minister Mei and Xia Shuo have a very close relationship? Otherwise, a county party committee organization director would never make it so clear."

Secretary Cui kept speculating in his mind, and secretly made up his mind to promote Xia Shuo to the full stock level as soon as the right opportunity comes.

Next to him, Mayor Wang looked embarrassed, with a gloomy look in his eyes.

Minister Mei praised Xia Shuo in person, and even said the words "great future". Anyone who was not a fool could tell that Minister Mei was supporting Xia Shuo.

If this had happened yesterday, Township Chief Wang would definitely have beaten the snake and followed the stick. However, he had beaten Xia Shuo in the family planning office today and even publicly announced that he would terminate Xia Shuo from his position.

On the one hand, there was the praise of the county party committee organization director, and on the other hand, he was the township head's declaration. Compared with the two, he became a clown.

If this scene spreads out, members of the township party committee will definitely make a choice. At that time, his announcement as the township head will become a big joke in Qingshan Township.

"No, we must not let this happen..."

Almost instantly, Mayor Wang had made a decision. He had to obstruct it and said something unfavorable to Xia Shuo.

After making this decision, Wang Xiangchang thought quickly and quickly spoke hurriedly, deliberately pretending to be helpless: "Comrade Xiao Xia is indeed very motivated, but it is a pity that young people are prone to making mistakes. For example, today, he made mistakes in Songlin Village. Made a principled mistake."

After saying these words, Secretary Cui's expression suddenly changed.

Minister Mei's expression remained unchanged, but he asked slightly curiously: "Really? What mistake did Xia Shuo make?"

Mayor Wang deliberately pretended to be serious, and said in a tone of hatred: "He obviously surrounded a household with a child who was born late, but in the end he let him go. Minister Mei, you may not know that the household with a child born outside the child is very serious. I have given birth to 1 girls in a row, and I am actually planning to continue to have more babies... If I continue to have more babies, the number of births will reach 5. Five, Minister Mei, you should understand the seriousness of this matter."

Minister Mei's expression gradually turned serious.

This woman with an intellectual and gentle face had a sharp look in her eyes at this moment. She stared at Xia Shuo and asked, "Do you know what the outcome of giving birth to five children will mean?"

Faced with the direct gaze of the organization director, Xia Shuo could only answer bravely and said in a low voice: "I understand that this matter will become a backward example of the province's family planning work."

But he immediately explained, his voice became high-spirited, and he said loudly: "Despite this, I don't regret it. Although I made a principled mistake, I don't blame myself in my heart. If you give me another chance Given the opportunity, I will still choose to let go of the Liu Laogen family."

Township Chief Wang took the opportunity to pretend to be angry and said: "You are unorganized and undisciplined."

Secretary Cui hurriedly made amends and said: "Xia Shuo is young after all. Making a small mistake is not serious. This is not a principled error or a deliberate mistake."

There are 12 leaders with different attitudes, one is accusatory and the other is protective.

On the contrary, Minister Mei's face was no longer serious, and there was curiosity in his eyes again. He asked Xia Shuo in a gentle tone: "Can you tell me why you let that family go?"

This gentle tone, coming from an organization minister, made Secretary Cui and Township Chief Wang confused and almost couldn't believe their ears.

The members of the township party committee who poked their heads in the room not far away also felt confused at this moment.

God, what kind of relative is Xia Shuo, Minister Mei? Even though he had made a principled mistake, Minister Mei could still maintain a gentle tone.

This is firm support.

……

Everyone was shocked, and Xia Shuo had no intention of taking it into consideration.

At this moment, he was trying to organize his language and wanted to explain it carefully to Minister Mei, trying to make the Minister of Organization understand why he let go of Liu Laogen and his family.

But he clearly wanted to form words, but he felt like he couldn't say the words when he reached his lips. After a long time, he sighed helplessly.

In the end, he chose not to make any excuses.

Instead, tell the truth about what happened today.

"Minister Mei, do you know that the Liu Laogen family is really pitiful..."

Along with Xia Shuo's low voice, a picture seemed to appear in front of everyone's eyes:

In the dark and narrow cellar, the weather was as hot as a steamer.

A family member hid inside, looking at the cellar entrance with horrified expressions.

Five little girls, skinny and skinny.

The pregnant woman knelt on the ground and begged desperately.

The man with red eyes stared outside with hatred...

Xia Shuo sighed softly while recounting, while Minister Mei listened attentively, as if there was an inexplicable sense of relief between his eyebrows.

When she heard Xia Shuo's story to the end, she gently placed 200 yuan on the ground, then turned around and left silently, and the people of Songlin Village walked across the street to see her off...

As if there was a clearer picture, as if he had been there personally, Minister Mei felt even more pleased, and suddenly nodded towards Xia Shuo with a smile.

"You're very good, really good."

"Although you made a work mistake in this matter, I don't think you made a conscience mistake."

"People have an innocent heart, and you have an innocent heart. Xia Shuo, you did a good job, really good."

"If you can continue to maintain this innocent heart towards the common people, I, Meiyu, can guarantee that you will definitely have a bright future..."

"This guarantee is not only a guarantee from me, Meiyu, in my personal capacity, but also a guarantee from me as the organization minister."

With Minister Mei's praise, the entire township government was almost audible.

Everyone felt their minds pounding and couldn't believe what their ears heard.

"It's so bizarre and unbelievable that Minister Mei, as the Minister of Organization, made explicit statements twice in a row without any scruples."

She said Xia Shuo has a bright future!
