Entering the officialdom by mistake and getting promoted quickly

That evening, the district resident.

This was the former Chaoyang Town, once under the jurisdiction of Hexi County. Since the city established the Economic Development Zone, 4 townships and 1 town were allocated.

The four townships are all small, poor and agricultural townships.

Only Chaoyang Town is slightly better. The residents in the town have been forging iron for generations. In the past ten years of reform and opening up, many small workshops have been set up. People have work to do and the economic income is not bad. It has gradually changed from a township to a town, and now it has become a town. The location of the Economic Development Zone.

Due to more than ten years of small workshop production, the people have a little spare money in their hands. As the saying goes, if one industry prospers, all industries will prosper. As long as the people have ample money anywhere, the local small economic circle will definitely prosper.

For example, there are small shops, small restaurants, small farmers, small hotels, and even a small shopping mall in the town selling some clothes that can only be found in the county or city.

This is a sign of economic prosperity and the reason why the district resident chose this location.

It was 8 o'clock in the evening, and it was just getting dark in the middle of summer. Xia Shuo finally finished a whole day of research and went to a small restaurant here for a dinner party.

The dinner party was scheduled in the morning. His old friends from Hedong County were coming to celebrate him. This party was initiated by Yun Kaishan, and only 7 people were notified in total. However, for some reason, the news leaked, and more than a dozen people came in the end. personal.

The first person to be notified was Cui Hanshan, Xia Shuo's old leader. He once served as the top leader of Qingshan Township and is now the Organization Minister of Hedong County.

The next person to be notified was Tan Guozheng, a classmate of Xia Shuo's in the junior high school class. When he graduated, he was promoted as the executive deputy mayor of Hedong County. Unfortunately, Mei Yu was suddenly transferred. He has been stuck in the same place for the past few years.

The third person to be notified was Sun Changhe, who was also Xia Shuo's old classmate in the junior high school class. He was previously the agricultural director of Hedong County, which was a very important bureau in the 3s.

Since the pine mushroom and fruit projects in Qingshan Township are agricultural, Sun Changhe took advantage of them when he was the director. His political achievements on his resume are impressive, and he has now been promoted to deputy county magistrate.

The fourth person to be notified was Niu Tianwang, who was also Xia Shuo's old classmate in the middle and youth class. Lao Niu had a rough temper and was more tenacious at work. After the training in the middle and youth class, he was promoted to the mayor. Unfortunately, after Mei Yu was transferred, he was also Standing still, it has been more than three years and he is still in the position of township head.

The 5th, 6th and 7th are the 123 leaders of Qingshan Township, namely secretary Wang Gaoshan, township chief Wang Yunxiang, and deputy secretary Jia Zhaolin.

In addition to Yun Kaishan, who has now been transferred to the development zone, the eight people are all old acquaintances or old leaders of Xia Shuo. Four of them are Xia Shuo's classmates in the junior high school class. In addition, Xia Shuo gathered the original five Donkey Kong.

8+1, 9 people. Although I am not sure whether Meiyu will be there, the reserved seats are not more than 10 people. It is a small gathering, so I chose a small restaurant.

Unexpectedly, due to the leak of the news, 8 extra people came, including Xia Shuo's old colleagues and classmates from the junior high school class. They all thought that their relationship with Xia Shuo was okay, so they shamelessly came to the dinner. .

This kind of thing is always unavoidable in official circles. The so-called "don't hit the smiling person with your hand" means that once you come, you can't drive them away.

Fortunately, Yun Kaishan had foreseen it and asked the restaurant owner to prepare in advance. Just in time, one more table could be opened, and it was quite lively for 1 people.

The only thing that was a bit unpleasant was that Zhou Liangcai also participated with a stern face, under the guise of coming to apologize to Xia Shuo, so everyone couldn't find an excuse to refuse, so they had no choice but to take him with them, not to mention that they had something in their hearts. Multiple diaphragms.

After Xia Shuo arrived, he also felt uncomfortable. When this person was in the junior high school class, he had trouble with him several times. At that time, Mei Yu once said that this person had joined a new backstage.

Later, after verification, it turned out that he had switched to Liu Zhigang, the then Propaganda Minister, and was used as a pawn to attack Xia Shuo's promotion. However, he ultimately failed and this person was quickly abandoned by Liu Guanjun.

It can be said that he was lucky. In line with the old saying, "Misfortune lies on the back of blessings", because Liu Zhigang abandoned him and was directly swept into an unpopular unit. After a few years, he gradually faded away. Everyone, but when Wu Changfeng from the capital took action, Liu Jiangang was not implicated in his imprisonment.

Perhaps it was because of the wasted years, or because he had been looked down upon for several years, but this man had changed a lot. The domineering aura in his body disappeared, and he became more quiet and looked like a scholar.

Xia Shuo was quite surprised by this, but at the same time he was happy. He felt that the prodigal son had finally turned around, so even though Xia Shuo was still resentful, he did not embarrass this person on the spot.

Instead, Xia Shuo took the initiative to speak, smiled, stretched out his hand to shake hands, and deliberately pretended to be teasing: "Brother Zhou, I really didn't expect you to come. I suffered a lot when I was in the junior high school class. Hahahaha , how about three drinks as a penalty tonight?"

"Ashamed ashamed!"

Zhou Liangcai's face was obviously surprised and happy. He held Xia Shuo's hand with both hands and said repeatedly: "I deserve the punishment, I deserve the punishment. Director Xia is so generous. What happened back then really made me feel ashamed."

Xia Shuo sighed and said softly: "Actually, you and I should be best friends. Back then, you followed Minister Mei as a secretary, and I followed Minister Mei as a pawn. In such a difficult place as Songlin Village, when we were stationed I never complained."

"Although you didn't like suffering at that time, you gritted your teeth and persisted. I went to mobilize the masses to pick pine mushrooms, and you stayed in the village committee to help me write documents. Speaking of which, you have a share of the credit for the pine mushroom project. .”

"But, Brother Zhou, your mistake is that you should not look at the heights of this mountain and turn your back on your own leader to join another leader."

"Secretary Mei was almost besieged by Liu Zhigang and others at the county party committee meeting. You once served as secretary Mei's secretary. Don't you feel a little ashamed in your heart?"

1 words that make sense.

Zhou Liangcai suddenly raised his head, and tears flowed out, running down the sides of his face.

This man finally revealed an unsolved case from that year.

Just listen to him say: "At that time, Liu Jiangang and Liu Guanjun came to me. They said that the old secretary of the city was about to retire, and the mayor would take over as secretary, and they were the mayor's people."

"They hinted to me that Secretary Mei would be taken down soon. If I continued to follow Secretary Mei, I would be taken down by them too."

"Xia Shuo, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. Those who work as secretaries in the system are the ones who are most afraid of something happening to their leaders."

"Once something happens to the leader, others may not be implicated, but I am Secretary Mei's secretary, and I can't escape no matter what."

"Xia Shuo, I am also from a rural background."

"My family is poorer than yours. My mother was a widow since she was a child and raised me."

"I eat almost everything."

"In order to support me, my mother even had to fight with the men in the village..."

"Oh, let's not talk about it. I won't talk about it anymore. The painful experiences in my childhood have developed my character of being a camper. I studied hard, got admitted to a prestigious university, was assigned to the county, and worked hard to get into camp."

"I want to climb up as hard as I can, and I want to enjoy great wealth. My mother worked hard to raise me, and I can't let her bear the reputation of being a 'son in jail.'"

"So when Liu Jiangang and the others came to me, I was afraid. I was afraid that Secretary Mei would be taken down by them, and I was afraid that I would be implicated by Secretary Mei."

"So, so, I, I..."

Xia Shuo's face was solemn when he heard this, and everyone present lowered their heads. Everyone pretended not to hear, because this kind of thing was not suitable to hear.

On this occasion, Zhou Liangcai dared to tell his secrets, even his childhood experiences, which shows that he was sincerely honest to Xia Shuo.

After a long time, Xia Shuo patted his shoulder lightly and said, "Brother, let's not mention the past. It's like a page of a book that has been turned over."

He paused for a moment, solemnly expressed his attitude, and then said: "To be honest, I was quite surprised that you came to this party today. The moment I saw you, I almost wanted to chase you away."

"But I thought about it. It's better to resolve enemies than to end them. Besides, no one is at fault."

"When I was in the junior high school class, I was only 17 years old. You were 27 years old at the time, and you were the youngest associate subject in the county."

"People are like this. When you are young and proud, you must be frivolous. So I thought, let bygones be bygones. Since you are here to attend the dinner, I definitely can't kick you away."

"This is what I thought at that moment."

"But after listening to what you just said, I suddenly felt very sad."

"It turns out that your personality was caused by your childhood experience, so you made that choice under the threat of Liu Jiangang. If it were me, I might make the same choice."

"Human beings, everyone has shortcomings."

"Let's not talk about it anymore. Let's not talk about it anymore. Let's have one more drink later and let's laugh and forget our grudges when we meet again."

"Ok!"

Looking at Xia Shuo's sincere face and listening to Xia Shuo's sincere voice, Zhou Liangcai suddenly burst into tears, squatted on the ground with his head in his hands and cried loudly.

Everyone present was quite emotional and a little sad in their hearts. Although people in the officialdom have strong minds, this kind of thing will definitely touch the softness of people's hearts.

Tan Guozheng was the first to speak out, pretending to be cold and stern: "Okay, stop howling, gentlemen, what are you howling for? Who hasn't suffered for a few days, who hasn't suffered for a few days? It was your own choice at the beginning. You must bear the consequences yourself."

"But since Xia Shuo said not to mention the past, then we old friends will also forgive you."

"Stand up quickly, what do you look like squatting on the ground?"

"If Mayor Mei comes over later and sees you squatting on the ground and crying, thinking that we are bullying you, everyone will be punished."

Cui Hanshan, on the other hand, was more direct. He had a straightforward personality as a soldier. He stepped forward and kicked his foot suddenly, but it was a gentle kick. He also pretended to be cold and said: "Did you hear that? Comrade Guozheng asked you to get up. Hurry up." , find a seat and sit down, or get out and stop howling here."

"Now that Xia Shuo has said that I will forgive you for the past, those of us who are friends will definitely respect Xia Shuo's decision."

"He will resolve the old grudge with you, and we will no longer bear any grudge against you."

"Look for an opportunity to change your job. After all, you graduated from a prestigious university, and you are only in your early 1s. Now you are retiring in a Qingshui unit. It is not suitable for both business and private life."

Cui Hanshan is the organization director of Hedong County, and Zhou Liangcai is still at the deputy section level. If the organization director wants to adjust the work of a deputy section level, it is basically a simple matter that can be easily grasped.

Zhou Liangcai subconsciously raised his head, his tears becoming more and more raging. He knew that this was not Cui Hanshan taking care of him, but helping him for Xia Shuo's sake.
