Chapter 32

In the office, Lao Ling poured Yuan Feng a glass of water and placed it in front of him.

He was a little embarrassed, took a few sips, suppressed his beating heart, gave Lao Ling a smile, and said that he hadn't reported to you for a long time, and wanted to report to you.Lao Ling also smiled, looked down at the newspaper for a while, and said in a low voice, "Old Yuan, you have made a detour."Yuan Feng seemed to have been seen through, and was even more embarrassed, just laughing.Lao Ling jokingly said, you have been chasing the limelight, and now you have come to my cold room. If I guessed correctly, you have encountered difficulties.Yuan Feng was a little embarrassed, he smiled at Lao Ling, and said that District Chief Ling had sharp eyes, and I couldn't hide anything.Then he talked about the investigation by Lao Tao with the working group.

Lao Ling looked very embarrassed.I know about this matter, but Lao Shao has already given instructions, and his tone is very strict. If I speak out now, I am afraid of making him unhappy.Lao Ling's words reminded Yuan Feng that now Lao Ling and Lao Shao are people who vent their anger from their nostrils, and if they can't get through with Lao Shao, they can't get through with Lao Ling either.Yuan Feng fell into inexplicable anxiety.In the past, the two top leaders had conflicts, and the following matters often came to the district with two different views and two different methods of handling. The district party secretary insisted on the opinion, and the district chief came out to dilute it; the district chief provided the method, and the district party secretary gave it What is more is different opinions, and the neutralization of the two will become a taste that is neither salty nor bland.Now two people are stacking up, one person will give a salty taste, and the other will add salt to the salty taste; the other will give a sweet taste, and this person will immediately add sugar to the sweet.Xiaofan's matter has become a dead end here.

Yuan Feng lowered his head and smoked two cigarettes.Seeing his helplessness, Lao Ling slowed down his words and said, let me see if I can make some remedies from other places?You said that the report was signed by Xiao Ling, and she withdrew the report, so there is no room for buffering the matter?As he spoke, Lao Ling picked up the phone and called his cousin.Xiaoling said that I had never reported anyone, and if I did, I would be angry.Lao Ling said how is this possible?The report letter is clearly signed by your name.Xiao Ling said that I can confront the matter, and if there is a signature, I can verify the handwriting.What Xiao Ling said with certainty made Lao Ling baffled.He is her cousin, Xiao Ling will not lie to him, this must be someone imitating her report, who could it be?And for what?Lao Ling expressed his doubts and asked Yuan Feng to help analyze.

Yuan Feng was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.He lowered his head and thought about it, and said that District Chief Ling, you know who I am. I have been cautious for half my life, and there is almost no hostile face in the officialdom. Tao and Lao Huang, the deputy director of the bureau, both felt that they had little power in their hands, and they colluded together to try to evade me.Lao Ling pondered Yuan Feng's words for a while, and felt that Lao Tao's appointment as the investigation team leader was really incomprehensible. Every leader would avoid the difficult matters of the competent department, but Lao Tao took the initiative to ask Ying to take over this matter. in my arms.Connecting Yuan Feng's words together, Lao Tao's actions drew a circle.From this, Lao Ling judged that all this may be a trick behind Lao Tao's back.

Listening to Lao Ling's analysis that this matter may be a play sung by Lao Tao Zila, Yuan Feng is more aware of the seriousness of the problem.Muttered in his mouth, how could he do this?We have no grievances or enmities. If there are some conflicts, they are accumulated from work. He wouldn't put me to death like this!Lao Ling said that it seems that you don’t really know Lao Tao well. He is a generous person, and he doesn’t care about trivial matters. Once he decides what to do, he will do it thoroughly. .What Lao Ling said added a heavy burden to Yuan Feng's heart.Smoking on a cigarette, I thought: Although Lao Tao and I were awkward and bumped into each other, at least we didn’t tear ourselves apart. Lao Tao wouldn’t bother to punish me so much. Taking advantage of my personal relationship with Lao Shao, I was transferred from the unit he was in charge of, so that he could not see his heart, and there was no need to use this trick to hurt me.Yuan Feng was thinking about the right and wrong between him and Lao Tao, and the cigarette butt caught between his fingers burned his fingers, but he didn't feel it yet.At the moment when he quickly shook off the cigarette butt, he suddenly thought of hiring a girl to send him flowers, and he was startled again, feeling that he had made an irreparable mistake.Lao Tao must have known about this, and wanted to take revenge on him by using this method of treating him in his own way.A layer of sweat broke out on Yuan Feng's face.

Yuan Feng was stunned for a while, then stood up and moved towards Lao Ling's desk.Said District Chief Ling, I want to ask you for a favor, I really have no other way.Seeing his helpless look, Lao Ling smiled.Yuan Feng felt that Lao Ling didn't care, and his tone was more sincere, saying that if you don't help me, no one can help me.Lao Ling suppressed his smile, and threw the cigarette case on the table to him, Yuan Feng took out one from it, and did not light it.Can you take your face and say hello to Lao Tao?Lao Ling observed from his actions that he cared about this matter, but he didn't understand why he had to say hello to Lao Tao.They all knew that Lao Tao was not the one sitting on his bench, and it might be counterproductive to go to Lao Tao after saying hello, not to mention that he could ask Lao Shao to press the matter down. Although he was not a popular person in front of Lao Shao, he was not It's not Lao Shao who is disgusting.Lao Shao will give him a face, after all, this matter is not a matter of principle.

Lao Ling didn't speak.Pull the knuckles of the other hand with one hand, making a rattling sound, pull it again and again, and when there is no sound, say, go to Secretary Shao, it is more direct to him, and he signed According to the instructions, the person who untied the bell had to tie the bell, not to mention that Lao Tao obeyed Secretary Shao's words.Yuan Feng didn't tell the story of going to Lao Shao's place to receive contemptuous treatment. He was afraid that Lao Ling would be unhappy and feel like he was eating two buns, so he added a wedge to his words and said, District Chief Ling, I have no relationship with Secretary Shao emotionally. For the sake of talking about personal matters, I have no other way without relying on you.The chivalrous arrogance of Lao Ling surged out of him, and he felt that it was his bounden duty to stab Lao Yuan's joints.Picking up the phone, I called Lao Tao and told him about the matter investigated by the Urban Construction Bureau. I personally think it is better to be on the safe side. After all, three or five people are not involved. If there is a chain reaction, it will be an even more unstable factor.At this time, we need to think about Secretary Shao's political future. In a few months, we will reach the critical point of the change of term. The top priority is stability over everything else.Lao Tao heard the meaning of Lao Ling's words.Pretending not to understand, District Chief Ling still needs to expressly explain if he has anything to say directly.Lao Ling didn't want to clarify what he said, after all, Lao Tao was not his confidant, but seeing Yuan Feng standing in front of him and listening, he said that this matter might involve the director of the bureau, Lao Yuan, who was an old man in the district. Qualifications are excellent in all aspects. If there are problems, education belongs to education, but it still needs protection.Most of Lao Ling's words were addressed to Yuan Feng, which made Yuan Feng feel warm in his heart.I feel that Lao Ling values ​​love and righteousness, and then think about what Lao Shao has done. When the two compare, Lao Shao is compared.

Lao Tao put down Lao Ling's phone and stood there in a daze.

Lao Ling's phone call was beyond his qualitative thinking. According to official practice, Lao Ling would not greet him: One Lao Ling is the district chief and his immediate boss. Two people can't urinate in the same pot. He would treat this matter as a private matter, which violated the organizational principles. If Lao Ling did it, it was tantamount to showing his little tail.Second, he and Yuan Feng are in a superior-subordinate relationship.The face and heart of the two are not in harmony, but they have never lost face on the outside. Sometimes, in order to create an atmosphere, they deliberately say some intimate words and do some intimate things to show the intimacy of the relationship. Yuan Feng will not go to the district for such things. Saying hello to the chief, saying hello, is equivalent to publicly admitting that there is a conflict with Yuan Feng.In any case, I can be regarded as his near-water platform, and giving up the near-water platform is equivalent to giving up the relationship between the two of them.People in the officialdom, no matter how big the gap in their hearts, when they meet each other, they should shake hands and pat their shoulders. Shaking hands and shoulders is to leave space for themselves.We all know that there is nothing static in officialdom, and change and change are also a change from time to time.Yuan Fengshe did this so that the two of them would have no chance to shake hands and pat shoulders in the future.The third is that Yuan Feng has always followed the middle line between the secretary of the district committee and the district chief, fearing that the two would fall into conflicts. Although Lao Shao and Lao Ling have shake hands and made peace, it may be superficial, but they still draw a boundary between Chuhe and Han in their hearts.Yuan Feng greeted Lao Ling. It seemed like a small greeting. It was tantamount to choosing a side. It showed that he didn't trust Lao Shao. Distrust was a big problem of principle. It was impossible for the careful Yuan Feng not to know this. It is also impossible not to know this.

Lao Tao felt that Lao Shao should know about Lao Ling's greeting.After Lao Ling didn't recommend Lao Tao as a candidate, Lao Tao and Lao Ling broke up, and the breakup was very thorough.Lao Tao didn't think that Lao Shao's mountain was higher than him, nor did he think that Lao Shao was superior in skills and fell in love with him, but he felt that Lao Ling's yin and yang were true and false, so he left him. Lao Ling voted for Lao Shao.The deeper the conflict between Lao Shao and Lao Ling, the greater the chance of Lao Tao's success in his official career.Lao Tao became Lao Shao's man, and Lao Shao would try his best to recommend him in order to cultivate his influence.However, all of this now follows the reconciliation of the relationship between Lao Shao and Lao Ling, which makes him see no hope and even feel a crisis.

Lao Tao asked Lao Shao to drink.When the wine was three minutes old, Tao told the story of the investigation, saying that he was very embarrassed.Lao Shao asked why it was so difficult?Lao Tao said that it wasn't because of the embarrassment about the investigation, but because as the team leader, how to deal with this matter was embarrassing.Old Shao raised his head and smiled, saying that after I gave instructions on this matter, I didn't set the tone for you, and there was no interference in the work. Are you moaning a little sick when you say that?Lao Tao drank a glass of wine, and said that if you set the tone, I would be more relaxed, as long as I follow your instructions, I will be as good as a gourd, and I don't even need to move my brain.Lao Shao heard the meaning of the words, touched Lao Tao's wine glass with his wine glass, drank the wine in his own glass, and said, do you still need to make a detour in front of me?Speak up if you have something to say.Lao Tao drank the wine he touched, thought for a while, and said he didn't know what to say or not?It's about Lao Ling.Lao Tao paused his words to see if Lao Shao's expression reacted. If Lao Shao looked indifferent, Lao Tao would divert the conversation elsewhere.

Lao Shao could see what Lao Tao was thinking, but he just didn't want to respond positively to his relationship with Lao Ling.After repairing the relationship with Lao Ling, it can be seen that Lao Tao cares a lot about his relationship with Lao Ling.Lao Shao made a flash on purpose, picked up the jug and poured three glasses of wine for Lao Tao, saying that I would like to toast you three glasses of wine, three six nines, go up, and hope that there will be a big promotion in his career.Lao Tao drank the wine and said that thanks to the secretary's auspicious words, his dream came true.Of course, without your recommendation, the dream will be a dream after all.Lao Shao smiled, and changed the topic to Lao Tao's words, saying that what you said just now was outrageous, and there is nothing that should be said or should not be said to me.Lao Tao then told about Lao Ling's greeting to Yuan Feng.Said, ordinarily this matter is not embarrassing, the instructions you made, I just took the meaning of the instructions, and Lao Ling's greetings were nothing more than showing that he could show favor and respect.What I just don't understand is how can Lao Yuan ask Lao Ling to say hello?You were the one who approved the approval document, so it goes against common sense to leave you aside to find Lao Ling.What makes me even more puzzled is that everyone knows that there is a wall between Lao Ling and me, and what Lao Ling explained to me may not be split in half. Why did Lao Yuan ask Lao Ling to greet me?I'm not afraid of whether the results of the investigation will agree with Lao Ling's thoughts. What I'm afraid of is that so many extraordinary actions mixed together may have some disadvantages for you.Lao Shao picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and smiled lightly, saying what would be the disadvantage?

Lao Shao pinned the meaning of Lao Tao.Taking such a long detour is to remind you not to throw all your heart towards Lao Ling, let alone be fooled by his illusion. The relationship with Lao Ling is just a temporary strike between the two battalions.Lao Shao also vaguely felt that Lao Tao did not want the relationship with Lao Ling to go better, and wanted to drive a wedge in the relationship between the two.This gave Lao Shao a deeper affection for Lao Tao. No matter how deep the prejudice between Lao Tao and Lao Ling was, Lao Tao's loyalty to him made Lao Shao feel that Lao Tao was scarce as a human being.

Old Shao is not confused, he has his own mirror.Taking stock of Lao Ling's character, there are always a group of lively people around, which shows that he has a way of controlling people. He has been a leader in Meidu District for so many years and is still sought after, which shows that he has extraordinary skills.But Lao Ling is definitely not a good partner. His strength and domineering, extended from work to outside work, made his partners miserable.The former secretary of the district committee, Lao Ning, was like this, and so was Lao Shao.Now that Lao Ling is curled up and stretching out an olive branch, of course he knows the little calculations in his heart, and Lao Shao also has small calculations in his heart. The two people's small calculations are fighting together, and each has its own calculations besides the abacus. Neither of them believes in them. Literally pissed in a jug.This is a stopgap measure.

Lao Shao had his own thoughts in his heart, but he couldn't explain it to Lao Tao.Now is a special period. Next year, Lao Shao may slap his ass and leave. Before this period, the district needs calm.The gap between Lao Tao and Lao Ling is high and deep. At this time, he needs to put up a firewall between the two of them. This firewall is to make him feel that he and the district chief are in harmony, so that Lao Tao will hold back his temper. toss.If he saw that he and Lao Ling were in harmony with each other, and they were using each other to act, Lao Tao would tear the cracks he saw into the larger cracks, and the district would be a mess.In the officialdom at the grassroots level, there are hidden wild beasts on every mountain. It's not that they don't call out, but they are waiting for an opportunity.If Lao Tao shows his instinct to bite Lao Ling, he may be the one who suffers.Lao Shao needs a calm political environment before being promoted.

Lao Tao saw that Lao Shao was absent-minded, so he walked back the words, saying that maybe I was thinking too much, and Lao Yuan might have no choice but to ask Lao Ling to say hello.The two of them drank for a while, and what they said was polite on the surface. They felt that drinking to such a degree made drinking a sin.Lao Shao found a reason to leave, and Lao Tao immediately agreed, and the two broke up.

When Lao Shao returned home, he recollected what Lao Tao had said while drinking, and felt that although Lao Tao had his own selfish intentions, he had always maintained his authority in Meidu District and had one heart with him. The backbone force, and Lao Tao is the "seed seedling" in the district, and there is a force that is intertwined below, and if he wins over him, he wins over.Currently in a special period with Lao Ling, it is difficult for outsiders to figure out the delicate relationship with Lao Ling, and it cannot be figured out by others, especially for Lao Tao.Lao Shao wanted to see the flowers in the fog, but he was afraid that Lao Tao would misunderstand him, and he was even more afraid that Lao Tao would stop thinking about him.

Lao Shao decided to appease Lao Tao from work.In the past six months, Lao Tao has repeatedly whispered to him about the distribution of positions in charge of the Urban Construction Bureau. He knows that this is Lao Tao's plan to use this method to check and balance Yuan Feng.Although Yuan Feng had never blush with the leaders at work, it was only on the surface, and he didn't take the leaders seriously at all in private, not to mention Lao Tao.The reason why Lao Tao wanted to censor Huang Jian was mainly because he wanted to build forces among his subordinates to fight against Yuan Feng, so as to control the department in charge.Lao Shao always took Lao Tao's ears as wind, and didn't do what he wanted, just because he was afraid of breaking the balance. Now that Lao Tao said that Yuan Feng chose to stand by Lao Ling, he felt that it was necessary to beat him with the division of positions. What's more, it is also soothing to Lao Tao, which has the effect of killing two birds with one stone, so why not do it?

Lao Shao brought the motion of the separation of posts in the District Urban Construction Bureau to the Standing Committee for study. Lao Ling was startled, and after he pressed it in his heart, he was the first to express his support for the proposal of the District Party Secretary. It was a mold that had been made in private, and it was passed with unanimous approval.

Lao Tao got the news from Lao Shao's phone call, but he didn't know what kind of medicine was in Lao Shao's gourd.When he went around the corner and told Lao Shao about the distribution of positions, he didn't take it seriously. Now, he had already let it go in his heart, but Lao Shao repeated the old saying, and it was done in one go.

However, he still faintly felt Lao Shao's intentions.

Huang Jian's appointment as Secretary of the Party Committee of the District Urban Construction Bureau was announced by Lao Tao himself.

According to the organizational procedures, a deputy director of the Organization Department is required to preside over the appointment. Lao Shao said that after the division of posts in the district committee, Yuan Feng will have emotions, and conflicts will inevitably occur at work. Lao Tao needs to attend the meeting in person to do something about the unity of the urban construction bureau. emphasize.At first, Lao Tao felt that such an appointment was very sensitive. He was afraid that Yuan Feng would think that he had led the division of positions and would offend him, so he wanted to avoid it.

At Huang Jian's appointment meeting, Lao Tao read it according to the draft prepared by the organization department, and didn't make any effort, fearing that Yuan Feng would think it was aimed at him if he said too much or too little.Yuan Feng didn't say a word when he attended the meeting. After Lao Tao finished reading the draft, he nodded to Yuan Feng and said that you are the director of the bureau to express his opinion.Yuan Feng waved his hand without expressing his opinion.Old Tao was embarrassed there, paused and turned back to Huang Jian and said, you are the newly appointed secretary of the party committee, and you have something to say to everyone.I want Huang Jian to take advantage of this opportunity to honor the director.We all know that the purpose of the district committee's division of positions in the Environmental Protection Bureau is to deliberately limit the power of the director Qi Yanfei.I don't want the Urban Construction Bureau to become the second company with job separation, so there will inevitably be discussions and speculations of one kind or another.Lao Tao knew the situation below.

Huang Jian understood what Lao Tao meant.There are three meanings: first, thank the district committee for attaching importance to the work of the Urban Construction Bureau, and strengthen him to the position of the main leader. He will work hard to fulfill his mission.On the second level, Director Yuan Feng not only has rich work experience, but also has high theoretical level and professional ability. I believe that he will work with Director Yuan to push the various tasks in the bureau to a new level.The third level is to strengthen communication with Yuan Feng and improve unity.In order to emphasize the importance of team unity, Huang Jian quoted a jingle, saying that each other complements each other's stage, and each other makes a good show, and each other destroys each other and collapses together.

Yuan Feng heard it a little harshly.He felt that Lao Huang was overreaching himself and intentionally elevating himself. As the party secretary of the bureau, he was the second in command in the Urban Construction Bureau, and the second in command worked with the first in command. It didn't matter whether the leader was a leader or a partner.Huang Jian's talk about unity made him feel awkward, especially when he heard the jingle quoted, he was a little angry. Lao Huang didn't talk about cooperation with him, but reminded him that he was already on an equal footing.

At this time, there was applause in the venue.Yuan Feng knew that the agenda of the meeting was over, he opened his eyes, saw Tao was looking at him, and asked if there was anything to add.Yuan Feng shook his head.Lao Tao announced the end of the meeting. Before the employees under the rostrum got up, Yuan Feng had already walked to the exit with his briefcase in his arms. He didn't even say hello. He left Lao Tao in the venue and went back to the office alone.
