Entering the officialdom by mistake and getting promoted quickly

Township buses in the 90s mainly focused on bumpy features.

The distance from the city to the county seat is about 40 miles, and from the county seat to Qingshan Township is another 40 miles. If you drive at normal driving speed, you can get there in two hours at most.

But in fact the car journey lasted for 3 hours.

There was no way, the mountain road was rugged and dilapidated. Xia Shuo's stomach was churning because he was so upset that he finally saw the station gate of Qingshan Township.

Squeak!

The driver braked hard, not caring whether the passenger would fall due to inertia.

Fortunately, the passengers on the bus seemed to have expected it, or were already accustomed to the urine-like nature of township buses, so everyone took precautions in advance and stood firm, only leaning forward greatly to counteract the inertia of the emergency braking. (Anyone who took a car in the 90s will understand)

Only Xia Shuo, who was inexperienced, turned into a rolling gourd in an instant and rolled straight from the middle of the carriage to the driver's seat.

The most embarrassing thing was that he was kneeling on his knees when he stopped.

The whole car laughed.

The driver also made a noise and said with a condescending look on his face: "You can't tell, this young man is a very particular person, and his etiquette is very thorough."

"My mother-in-law!" Xia Shuo stood up and cursed angrily: "Don't you brake and scream?"

Roll up your sleeves and take action.

2 Once a fool's temper is raised, he doesn't care about the consequences of a fight.

Fortunately, at this moment, a little girl in the car shouted, seemingly curious: "Hey, why is there a banner hanging at the station gate?"

The little girl's voice paused, and then she said more curiously: "Welcome all aspiring young people to come and apply for the Qingshan Township civil servant examination. Civil servant? What is it?"

Apparently this little girl doesn't know what a civil servant is.

Everyone in the car was also curious. It was obviously the first time they heard this new word, and they were talking about it: "Our township government is so poor, and the new secretary is so stingy. This time he is even willing to spend money to print banners. It seems like this The civil service exam is very powerful.”

Everyone didn't understand, and Xia Shuo suddenly felt awesome.

The young man loves to show off. At this moment, he has long forgotten to trouble the driver. Instead, he raises his head triumphantly and starts to popularize science: "The civil service examination is to select officials. This is a policy that the central government has just tried and has not yet been implemented. Promote it across the country. You may not know the significance of this, but it is of epoch-making significance..."

Listening to your words is like listening to your words.

In fact, Xia Shuo had no idea what the significance of the civil service examination selection was.

But this did not prevent him from continuing to show off, boasting: "Only college students like me are qualified to apply..."

Young people love to show off, and anyone with a little experience can see it, but at this moment, the expressions of everyone in the car turned serious.

Central trial?

Select officials?

Only college students are eligible to apply...

1 A series of high-end words made everyone look at Xia Shuo differently.

Especially the driver just now, who even had an uneasy look in his eyes, asked a slightly embarrassed question: "Little... little brother, are you here to be an official?"

Although this matter has not yet been written, Xia Shuo is fully confident. He subconsciously touched the 'answers to the test questions' he just bought and replied in a pretentious manner: "Come here and take a test for a position. For the time being, I’ll just work at the Family Planning Office.”

hiss!

The car was full of people and it took a breath of cool air.

Family planning office?

The way everyone looked at Xia Shuo was even more different.

That is a very complicated look.

There is envy, fear, flattery, a little disgust, all kinds of expressions...

However, it is a pity that Xia Shuo has just entered the society. With his current impetuous personality and social experience, he cannot see the complicated eyes of the people in the car.

He just felt that he was having a great time showing off, and he was increasingly looking forward to this exam.

……

……

The bus enters the station and the passengers exit.

Since it is the busy farming season, everyone is busy going home to do farm work. I saw a dense flow of people pouring out, and then turned into zero stars scattered in all directions. It seemed that in just the blink of an eye, the bustling crowd had disappeared.

Xia Shuo was the only one who was not busy. He got out of the car slowly. He first asked the driver the direction of the Mingxiang government station, and then waved goodbye carelessly: "Goodbye, uncle. Come visit me when you have time. We are now acquaintances. You If you have any questions from now on, please come to the Family Planning Office to see me."

Although the driver knew that he was not a government employee yet, he still nodded and bowed slightly, and promised with a smile on his face: "Yes, yes, I will definitely go."

Looking at Xia Shuo's retreating back, the driver took a deep breath and murmured with envy: "As a college student, you can become an official after taking the exam..."

It's a pity that he didn't know that Xia Shuo only had a degree from TV University.

Xia Shuo on the other side walked along the street and saw the township government residence not far away.

As expected of a remote countryside, even the government headquarters looked shabby. There was only a large courtyard with red brick walls. I don’t know what era it was built in. The sand and ash bonding the brick joints had been powdered and turned into small holes for ventilation.

Looking inside along the entrance of the courtyard, I can't see any buildings at all, but rows of old-fashioned tile houses, and I can vaguely see fans shaking inside.

Although it was shabby, Xia Shuo was very excited. After all, this was a township government office, which represented the majesty within the system.

He couldn't help but take a deep breath, recalling his uncle's instructions last night. He first carefully arranged his shirt, then smoothed the middle seam of his trousers, and then took another deep breath, holding the admission ticket and stuffing it inside. Walk.

After entering the gate of the yard, I found that it was a large vegetable garden, not only growing beans, cucumbers and other vegetables, but also a watermelon field of more than half an acre...

"Is this the township government?"

"I didn't go to the wrong place, did I?"

Xia Shuo was slightly stunned and looked at the vegetable garden in the courtyard in a daze.

Vaguely, he saw someone in the vegetable garden, a middle-aged man, carrying a bucket and watering the vegetables.

"Cough cough..."

Xia Shuo deliberately cleared his throat and prepared to approach him to ask a question. This was not only to get closer, but also to find out the details of the township government.

Unexpectedly, before he could speak, he suddenly heard a scolding not far away. He seemed to be displeased and pretended to be dignified. He asked from a distance: "Which family are you from? Come to the government to hang out when you have nothing to do." "

Baby?

Wandering around?

Xia Shuo touched his face subconsciously, and then frowned involuntarily. He almost didn't think about it and retorted directly: "What's your look in your eyes? Can you take a closer look? I'm a majestic 1 meters tall. What's your family?" Can the baby grow as tall as me?"

The man opposite was amused. He seemed to be looking Xia Shuo up and down, and said in deep thought: "After you said it, someone so tall really shouldn't be a baby, but with your appearance, he looks like a baby."

Xia Shuo looked slightly embarrassed. What bothered him the most was when people called him baby-faced. He muttered: "Obviously, this is called having beautiful features and beautiful eyes. How does your baby-face look like this?"

The man opposite was even happier and walked over. At this time, his tone was no longer majestic, but he asked with a smile: "Since you are not a baby, are you here to do something? Which village down there are you from? I look a little strange to you. …”

"I'm from the city!" Xia Shuo didn't want to chirp with him, so he directly raised the admission ticket in his hand and said loudly: "Look clearly, this is the admission ticket. Your Qingshan Township is recruiting civil servants, and I'm here. Taking the exam."

uh-huh?

take an exam?

The man opposite was obviously stunned.

More than ten seconds passed before the man seemed to come out of his sluggish state. His eyes were filled with disbelief, and his tone became very surprised. He said in astonishment: "Come to take the exam? Someone really came to take the exam?"

Suddenly the man turned his head sharply, his tone vaguely excited, and shouted hurriedly: "Secretary Cui, Secretary Cui, someone, someone is here to take the exam..."

"What are you shouting for? We've heard it a long time ago."

Only a strong voice was heard, coming from the vegetable garden. Xia Shuo couldn't help but look around, and was surprised to find that it was the man carrying a bucket to water the vegetables.

"This is...is this the secretary of the township government?"

"A dignified township party committee secretary is actually growing vegetables like an old farmer..."

Xia Shuo felt a little confused.

Vaguely, he remembered what his second uncle said last night: Qingshan Township is very poor. Even if you can be admitted to the civil service, you may not have any future in this life. Alas!

2. When uncle said these words, his tone was a helpless sigh.

It is obvious that the future of poor places is not good.
