When Shen Huai rode his bicycle to Meixi Town, the town was already bustling with traffic.
The town government was located in the middle of Xuetang Street, diagonally opposite the town's vegetable market.
Around eight o'clock in the morning, the sun had just risen to the top of the trees. People who went to school, went to buy vegetables, went to work, and the flow of people and traffic intertwined. Everyone was fighting to be the first to do so, not giving in to each other. School Street, which was only built in 1990, had asphalt roads. There were sidewalks on both sides, but the shops along the street were eager to put their tents in the middle of the road. Small vendors playing guerrilla warfare, as well as bicycles and motorcycles parked casually, all made the road in front of and behind the market particularly congested. Pedestrians, bicycles, and motorcycles weaved freely between the cars, trying to gain some speed from the gaps, but they were often blocked more firmly.
The sound of horns, bells, curses, and noise mixed together.
A car with a county license plate was stuck there, unable to get up or down. They were impatiently honking their horns, but no one paid attention to them. They were still stuck there. It was convenient for Shen Huai to ride a bicycle. He leaned over and saw that the staff of the county party committee organization department who had agreed to meet at the town government today were sitting inside.
"Good morning, Section Chief Chen!" Shen Huai bent over and knocked on the window to greet the person in the car.
In order to meet Shen Huai's schedule, Chen Kuanhe had gotten up early and begged his grandparents to find a spare car from the county to go straight to Meixi Town. It was only three or four hundred meters away from the town government office. He was blocked and could not move. He was frustrated and impatient, listening to the knocking on the window.
Seeing that it was Shen Huai riding his bicycle, Chen Kuan suppressed his anger and rolled down the window."Secretary Shen, it's not too late…"
Chen Kuan He was only promoted to an assistant department when he was forty years old. He felt uncomfortable when he saw Shen Huai, a pretty boy whose beard hadn't turned green and whose hair had hardened. Shen Huai's level was definitely higher than his. There was no other way. Several deputy ministers were unwilling to accompany Shen Huai to Meixi to take up his post, so it became something that he, the HR Section Chief, could not escape.
Shen Huai didn't care whether Chen Kuan and his heart was comfortable or not. He said directly," It looks like we'll be stuck for a while. The town government is just ahead. Chief Chen, follow me to the town government…"
Chen Kuanhe had also learned about Shen Huai's background, so he didn't try to brush him off. Hearing Shen Huai's suggestion to go to the town government, Chen Kuanhe also felt flustered. He opened the car door and walked with Shen Huai to the town government building in Meixi Town.
The town government was a three-story building with a courtyard surrounded by white walls. The door faced the west of Xuetang Street, and the government and government worked together.
As soon as Shen Huai and Chen Kuanhe walked into the town government compound, a middle-aged man on a bicycle caught up with them. He patted Chen Kuanhe on the shoulder and greeted him,"Old Chen, you're not late!" He sized up Shen Huai again and seemed to have suddenly remembered who Shen Huai was. He reached out his hand." You're the newly transferred Secretary Shen Huai, right? I was wondering why Chen Kuan and I had come to Meixi Town. So, it turns out that I'm here to escort you. I'm He Qingshe."
"Oh, Mayor He, hello." Shen Huai reached out and took it, feeling that there was a thick layer of calluses on He Qingshe's palm.
The so-called "escort", Shen Huai just laughed it off. He was the chief section chief, and Chen Kuan was the deputy section chief. How could the deputy section chief escort the chief section chief? This indirectly showed that no matter what the county party secretary Tao Jixing looked like on the surface, not many officials in the county welcomed him to come to Xiapu to stir up trouble.
Shen Huai smiled faintly in his heart, I never thought of getting along peacefully with this group of bureaucrats…
He Qingshe was about forty years old. His face was dark and there were almost no wrinkles. He wore a dark jacket. Although he rode a bicycle to work, his shoes were polished.
In Meixi Town, Du Jian, the Party Secretary, had the power to cover the sky. Although He Qingshe was the deputy secretary and the mayor, she did not have much real power. He Qingshe was nominally in charge of the town government's work, but in fact, she could only intervene in the family planning, agricultural tax, and farmland contract fee collection, which were difficult to carry out.
Other than He Qingshe, the deputy mayors of the town government, the finance department, the management office, the education office, the land office, the industrial and commercial office, the enterprise office, and several other key departments, as well as the main person-in-charge of the town-owned enterprises such as Meixi Steel Plant, were mostly the trusted aides of Secretary Du Jian.
Shen Huai rushed to the town government office, but there were not many staff members in the entire building. Going to work on time was obviously not the good style of the government.
He Qingshe called Shen Huai and Chen Kuan to his office, took a thermos bottle, filled it with hot water, and personally washed three porcelain teacups…
Shen Huai did not know what He Qingshe thought of him coming to Meixi Town to be the deputy secretary of the Party Committee in charge of the economy. He even directly replaced Du Jian as the director of Meixi Steel Plant. He only looked on coldly with a warm and cold attitude towards him.
When the hot water was about to boil, a man with a mid-parted hairstyle poked his head in and asked He Qingshe,""Mayor He, are you free now? Secretary Du wants you to go?”After he asked this question, he saw Shen Huai and Chen Kuan sitting in the room and was stunned.
" Oh, this is Huang Xinliang, the director of the Party and Government Office." He Qingshe sat in her seat and did not move. She pointed at Huang Xinliang, who came in and introduced him to Shen Huai and Chen Kuan. She then waved Huang Xinliang in and introduced Shen Huai," This is the new Secretary Shen. There's also Chief Chen from the county organization department. You've met him before."
Unlike the government offices and party committee offices above the county level, there was only one party and government office in the township.
Huang Xinliang, the director of the office, was a trusted aide of the Party Secretary Du Jian. From the moment he poked his head in and called He Qingshe out, one could tell what status He Qingshe had in Meixi Town.
Huang Xinliang's gaze hesitated for a few seconds on Chen Huai's face before he came back to his senses. He pushed the door open and entered. With a sudden and abrupt enthusiasm, he held Chen Huai's hand."Secretary Shen, hello. Secretary Du asked me to prepare an office for you yesterday. You're already here to take office, but I'm still muddle-headed. I even caused Town Mayor He to personally make tea for you and Section Chief Chen. It's really a sin…"
Seeing the hot water bottle next to him was steaming, Huang Xinliang quickly went over to unplug the Quick Heat. He looked at the porcelain teacup on the table and took it to the window to take a closer look. Then, he asked He Qingshe,
"Mayor He, have you washed this teacup? Do you want to wash it again?”
After Huang Xinliang helped Shen Huai and the others brew tea, he said to He Qingshe,""Secretary Du is also looking for you because of Secretary Shen's appointment today. I didn't expect Secretary Shen to be sitting in your office. Why don't I go over and tell Secretary Du first?”
" No, I'll go over with Secretary Shen and Section Chief Chen now." He Qingshe stood up and asked Shen Huai," Shall we go over now?"”
"Sure." Shen Huai and Chen Kuan stood up innocently and walked toward the office at the east end of the same floor.
She walked to Du Jian's office and heard him scolding someone inside.
"I came to the government today, and Xuetang Street was blocked. What did your comprehensive management office do? " If you're short of manpower, you can ask the joint defense officer to cooperate with you. In short, you have to sort out the order." The office door was closed, but the voice of the person inside was very loud. One could imagine the arrogance of the person standing on his hips and pointing at the country." You have to know that School Street is chaotic every day. If someone is dissatisfied, they will f * ck my ancestors." If you don't do a good job and fight for an inch of land in society, I'll f * ck your ancestors."
" Secretary Du's instructions are always so high." He Qingshe and Shen Huai smiled and knocked twice.
"If there's anything, come over later." When the person in the room heard the knocking, he did not want to be disturbed by the lecture. He immediately shouted to send the person standing outside the office away.
He Qingshe was a little embarrassed in front of Shen Huai. A mayor could not even enter the secretary's office and had to be chased away. It was really a little embarrassing. Of course, from this, one could also see the work style of the party secretary Du Jian.
" Secretary Du," Huang Xinliang knocked on the door and helped He Qingshe resolve the awkwardness." It's Town Mayor He who brought the newly registered Secretary Shen over."
After a while, the office door was opened from the inside. The person who opened the door was none other than the yellow-faced cat, Wang Gang, who had led the team to beat up Chen Tong a few days ago.
Wang Gang didn't expect the new deputy secretary to be so nosy as the " secretary of the municipal government ". He held the doorknob and blocked the door with his mouth agape. Why was he the new secretary? He wanted to help Chen Tong, that brat, find trouble with him. What should he do? However, on second thought, no matter how powerful the new secretary's background was, he was only a deputy secretary. His godfather was the king of Meixi Town.
Shen Huai looked at Wang Gang who was blocking the door and forgot to move aside. He smiled and said,"Vice-Captain Wang is reporting to Secretary Du?”
"Secretary Shen knows Wang Gang?" He Qingshe felt a little strange. He could count on Shen Huai to come and fight with Du Jian. If Du Jian colluded with the new Shen Huai, then Meixi Town would really have no way out for him.
" Oh, I don't really know him. A few days ago, I was at the south section of Xuetang Street. I saw Vice-Captain Wang renovating the road surface. His method was a little too extreme, so I corrected them." Shen Huai said lightly.
Shen Huai's words made He Qingshe and Du Jian, who was standing in the room, feel their hearts shrink." Before Shen Huai took office, he came to Meixi Town for a private visit?
Before He Qingshe entered Du Jian's office, she sized up Shen Huai again."
He Qingshe had previously heard that Shen Huai's backer had died of an accidental illness. That was why he had won sympathy in the city. He was able to become the deputy secretary of the party committee in charge of the economy when he came to the township. It was a rare achievement for him. However, she also heard that Shen Huai had a deep conflict with Ge Yongqiu, who had just arrived at Xiapu County as the acting county head. She originally thought that he would restrain his edge when he arrived at Meixi Town, but she did not expect him to be even more flamboyant.
Knowing that Shen Huai had secretly inspected Meixi Town before he took up his post in Meixi Town, He Qingshe thought about the work that Shen Huai would be in charge of after he came to Meixi Town. There was probably going to be a good show…
