Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Finally, He Wenbao and everyone else were sent away. Feng Sizhe stood in front of the window, looking at the dark night outside, unable to fall asleep for a long time. This might be his last night in Dahu County. At this moment, he remembered a lot of things, from the time he came to Dahu County alone, to the time he took step by step to strive for a better tomorrow for Dahu. The process of step by step struggle was extremely dangerous. However, with his careful thinking and extraordinary courage, he finally got through one sadness after another, and now he has finally come out.

Thinking that he would be separated from his comrades who had fought for four years tomorrow, he certainly felt reluctant. While thinking about these things, he couldn't help but think of a person who didn't show up tonight, that is, Wang Ruihua, the current deputy county magistrate and director of the Dahu Foreign Trade Bureau.

It was this girl who sneaked into his room and handed over a blood letter on his first day in Dahu County. Then she put aside her female reserve and gave herself a mouthful of air to save herself in front of many people. Then she came to his side step by step, first working in the archives of the county party committee, then as deputy director, director, and assistant to the county magistrate of the county government. It can be said that she is still a person who understands him very well, and she is also a person who he is a little worried about for a while. But she did not appear here tonight.

Of course, Wang Ruihua didn't show up, not because she didn't want to come, but because she couldn't come, because she was handling public property at the Foreign Trade Bureau in Zhuangcheng, the capital of Zhongzhou Province. In order to facilitate the export of handicrafts from Dahu County, the county Foreign Trade Bureau established a county-based agency in the provincial capital with the approval of the county party committee and county government. Now Wang Ruihua is handling work there, but she didn't expect her superiors to suddenly transfer Feng Sizhe away, so that the two of them didn't even have a chance to say goodbye.

Well, since you can't come, then let's not meet. Sometimes not meeting is a good thing. Otherwise, what else can you do except increase the sadness?

Thinking of Wang Ruihua, one cannot help but think of another girl, Bai Caixia. President Bai was not too worried about Feng Sizhe's transfer. As a manager under Pengfei Company, she had great autonomy and freedom of action. Feng Sizhe was just moving from one county to another. This was nothing to her. In her opinion, as long as she wanted, she could open the company wherever Feng Sizhe was.

Thinking about what Bai Caixia said on the phone, that she would not come over tonight, because for her, it was just a matter of changing the place to work with her brother, Feng Sizhe wanted to laugh. This sister Caixia still believed in him like she did when she was a child, and liked to hang around him. He really couldn't think of what he should do when she grew up and looked for a husband.

Feng Sizhe spent that night in thinking, missing and recollecting. Familiar figures appeared in his mind, and vivid characters also appeared in his city of memory. In his opinion, these were all treasures and infinite beautiful memories.

The next morning when the director of the county government office, Wu Yong, found out that the county governor did not come to the office as usual, he hurriedly called the county guesthouse. Only after this call did he find out that Feng Sizhe had left the county guesthouse with Li Shuang just after dawn.

Feng Sizhe's sudden departure without saying goodbye immediately made everyone panic. Deputy Secretary Jia Bin, who was preparing for the farewell ceremony, was even more unconvinced until he personally went to the county guesthouse and saw the neat room where Feng Sizhe had lived and the county magistrate's special car that he had taken was parked in its proper place. Only then did he know that the county magistrate had really left, and left without a word.

After learning that Feng Sizhe had really left, most of the cadres in the county party committee compound could not help but look towards Yongyang City. In their opinion, this was also a different kind of farewell ceremony, a way of sending off and blessing in their hearts. But in fact, the real Feng Sizhe was circling Dahu County in a very ordinary Santana car that Chen Hu had specially sent from the city.

In this inconspicuous car, Feng Sizhe carefully looked through the car window at the appearance of Dahu County and even Chengguan Town adjacent to Dahu County, and then reluctantly went to Yongyang City. He knew in his heart that at this moment Dahu County had become a thing of the past in his life history, and his current direction should still be Qiu County, where the situation was somewhat unclear.

Before the municipal party committee got off work at noon, Feng Sizhe finally arrived and reported to the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department.

Because the end of get off work time was approaching, I was told to take a rest in the city at noon, and then go to Qiu County with Minister Wu to take up my post as soon as I got to work in the afternoon.

Feng Sizhe knew that he was not liked by Minister Wu Fuliang of the Organization Department, and he couldn't even get along with Deputy Minister Zhou Chunhai. So he took Li Shuang out of the Organization Department, ready to find a place to eat something first, and then rest up to prepare to go to Qiu County.

Just after leaving the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, he saw a soldier in military uniform walking towards him. "Hahaha, Sizhe, I caught you this time, come on, let's go to dinner together." The soldier in colonel uniform said this while grabbing Feng Sizhe's arm. It seemed that he was afraid that Feng Sizhe would run away accidentally.

Feng Sizhe knew it was Political Commissar Xie Jun's voice as soon as he heard it. Seeing that the other party had grabbed his arm, he smiled and said, "Political Commissar Jin, there's no need to be like this. I was just worried about where to eat at noon. Now that I've met the leader, I can have a good meal."

"Haha, okay, then let's go to the military guesthouse. It's quiet there and no one will disturb us. Hahaha." After hearing what Feng Sizhe said, Xie Jun looked obviously very happy. In his opinion, it was not easy to have a meal with Feng Sizhe.

Since Xie Jun replaced Jin Dake as the political commissar of Yongyang Military Region, he really hasn't had a good meal with Feng Huazhe alone. Usually, either he is busy with work or Feng Sizhe is busy, and it is difficult for the two of them to get together. This time, taking advantage of the time when he was about to take office, the two of them met, so how could they not sit together?

In the military district guesthouse, Xie Jun asked for a single room, and the two of them sat face to face. "Sizhe, I know you are going to Qiu County to take up your post this afternoon, so I will spare you this time and not let you drink. But let's be honest, this dinner is inevitable. I heard that you can drink a pound or two. When we have the chance, we must see your true moves.

To be honest, Feng Sizhe's alcohol tolerance is still very strong. If he is in a good mood, he can drink three kilograms at a time. But today's occasion is indeed not suitable for drinking. As a person who grew up in a military family, Feng Sizhe knows very well that if he and Xie Jun call numbers here, it will be difficult to leave the barracks without a winner today. For this reason, he just laughed and said, "Okay, I'll remember what Political Commissar Xie said. When I have the opportunity later, I will definitely have a good drink with Political Commissar Xie and see who is better."

"Good, you have guts, young man, you dare to call me by my number, just for this I admire you, hahaha." Xie Jun also laughed after hearing what Feng Sizhe said. Soldiers like straightforward soldiers, if you always keep silent or keep your words in your heart, they will not like such people.

The meal was the most common four dishes and one soup, including a fish, a pepper, a plate of beef, a plate of cold vegetables, and an egg soup. The staple food was rice, which looked simple, but was actually very practical. Two young people, one old and one young, sat here and ate.

During the meal, both of them followed the military regulations and did not speak. After a while, both of them had eaten two bowls of rice, and nearly half of the dishes on the table were also consumed. Afterwards, Xie Jun personally poured water, first handed a cup to Feng Sizhe, and then poured it for himself while slowly speaking, "Sizhe, I heard that the problems in Qiu County are very complicated. No matter what the considerations were, your appointment was finally made. Haha, to be honest, seeing that you are so young and already the secretary of a county, I am also very envious. When I was your age, I was just a platoon leader, a most ordinary low-level cadre, but you have become the county party secretary at this time. That is really better than the orchid. I sincerely wish you all the best."

"Thank you for the praise, Political Commissar. I will keep it in mind and try my best to live up to your expectations of me."

"Well." Seeing Feng Sizhe being so modest despite such achievements, Xie Jun nodded involuntarily, "Well, you are about to take up your post in Qiu County. As the political commissar of the military sub-district, I really have nothing to give you, but I can help you. I will just tell you a piece of news. Do you still remember that there is a company commander Jiang in our military sub-district? He once helped you intercept Song Jingang, the son of the former secretary general of the municipal party committee, Song Changhe. At that time, Song Jingang kidnapped your people, and he listened to the words of the old Jin at that time and blocked all the intersections leading into the city. This is how he caught the turtle in the jar and punished the bad guys. Now he is organizing their company's troops for training in a place very close to Qiu County. Haha, if you need any help there, but you don't have time to go to the city to seek reinforcements, you can call him. I have already greeted him in advance. As long as it is what you need, let him obey orders. What do you think?"
