Shui Qingzhang had the opportunity to send off the foreign business delegation to Yunyang International Airport, so he went home on the way. It was already evening when he got home.

Gu Hongyan naturally nagged him, saying that he had no conscience, was selfish, patronized work, and did not care about his family or his daughter. Shui Qingzhang was used to it. You said you would do mine, and he was sitting in the study reading materials.

It's like being outside of the incident.

When Shui Tingyue and Li Yuanlang got home, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. On the way, Shui Tingyue helped analyze and said that her father was talking to Li Yuanlang. There were mostly good things and the probability of bad things was very small.

Li Yuanlang also thought so. During this period, nothing he did was criticized, and everything he did was worthy of his conscience. Shui Qingzhang could not fault him.

Shui Tingyue's house is a duplex building, and the bedrooms are all upstairs. As soon as she entered the house, she took her mother Gu Hongyan to her bedroom upstairs. The two closed the door and discussed the use and dosage of traditional Chinese medicine. It was mainly to facilitate the communication between Li Yuanlang and her father.

We were talking to each other for fear that Gu Hongyan would get involved and spoil things.

As for what the two women said, and the trivial matters such as Gu Hongyan instructing the newly hired nanny to boil Chinese medicine, we will not talk about it for the time being. Shui Qingzhang called Li Yuanlang into the study, closed the door, and Shui Qingzhang looked at Li Yuanlang with a smile, and suddenly his expression changed.

He changed and asked seriously: "Do you hold any grudge against me for delegating you to Shuiming Township to be the executive deputy township head at the subject level?"

Li Yuanlang was not prepared at all for Shui Qingzhang's topic. He never expected that Shui Qingzhang would ask this question.

He thought for a while and asked calmly: "Uncle Shui, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

"Of course it's the truth. Lying is a sign of guilty conscience. It's a waste of saliva." Shui Qingzhang took out a pack of Chinese soft drinks from the desk drawer, pulled one out and held it in his mouth. Li Yuanlang took out a lighter and lit it.

"If you want to smoke it yourself, go and open the window to let out the cigarette smell. Your Aunt Gu restricts my smoking." Qingqing Shui Qingzhang was smoking secretly. He has a bad heart and smoking too much is not good for his health.

After the two men sat in the study and fussed, Li Yuanlang answered truthfully: "At first, I didn't understand the decision you made, and I was very resentful."

"Yes." Shui Qingzhang took a deep breath from his cigarette and nodded: "You are quite honest and did not cheat me. Tell me, how did you figure it out?"

"This is all thanks to Minister Wang Zumin and Minister Zheng Haiyang. Their advice made me suddenly enlightened..." Li Yuanlang looked at Shui Qingzhang and said.

"I'm not surprised that Wang Zumin gave you some advice. He is an old subordinate whom Zhongde is optimistic about, but Zheng Haiyang will give you some advice, which is very interesting."

"Zheng Haiyang is Zheng Zheng's cousin..." Li Yuanlang reminded him deliberately.

"I really don't know about this." Shui Qingzhang suddenly realized that the doorway was here. He had known for a long time that Zheng Haiyang was from Shen Zheng's family and had no connection with Li Yuanlang. He helped Li Yuanlang out of thin air. He was worried that there was something wrong with it.

There is a problem.

There are minefields everywhere in the officialdom. If you step on someone accidentally, it can range from a broken arm or a leg to a serious one, not to mention your body and bones, and your official career will come to an abrupt end.

Therefore, it is said that there is nothing wrong with being cautious in sailing the ship of ten thousand years.

"Then tell me, what do you understand by their instructions?" Shui Qingzhang asked again slowly.

"You are taking the opportunity to examine me and let me go through twists and turns to temper me. Smooth sailing cannot temper a person's tenacity and will. You are doing this entirely for my future consideration." Li Yuanlang answered truthfully without any scruples.

"Haha, it seems that you have a malleable talent, so I didn't waste my efforts in vain." Shui Qingzhang was indirectly admitting that his actions and good intentions were genuine.

Immediately, he changed the topic and talked about Shuiming Township. "I heard that you took the initiative to take charge of education. Education is the future and hope of our country and nation. I agree with this. Also, the donation you want to make

The idea of ​​the activity is very good. Here I will give you a small suggestion to make it vigorous and create a lot of momentum. Jin Sheng needs to report it, and Fang Yukun should also inform him. Don’t make a small fuss and keep the county committee and county government completely in the dark.

Here, we must let them pay attention to it. Improving the quality of the people and developing the economy do not conflict, and they can also play a complementary role in promoting each other. You can bring these words of mine to Fang Yukun and Jin Sheng, let them understand, digest, and use practical actions

Support education and increase investment in education.”

Li Yuanlang was overjoyed. He didn't expect that Shui Qingzhang would support his actions. What he didn't expect was that his every move would not escape the eyes of the Municipal Party Committee Secretary. It turned out that he had been paying attention to him. It was so unexpected.

.

"Shuiming Township is the key fulcrum for you and Jin Sheng to play a game of chess. Jin Sheng will ensure that you go to Shuiming Township. Naturally, he has his plans. Don't let down his hard work. Take root there and make your way into a vast world."

New World, to be exaggerated, to carve out a bloody road, you must have the determination and fighting spirit to go to the battlefield. Sometimes, being kind and soft-hearted is a compliment, but in the face of great right and wrong, it is a derogatory term. Kindness towards the enemy is the cruelty towards one's own comrades.

, you must always remember this.”

Shui Qingzhang passed on these heartfelt words to Li Yuanlang while smoking. To be honest, when an official reaches his level, he can't say much from his heart. Mainly, he doesn't have a suitable partner, and he can only talk to his family or friends.

You can only reveal your heart in front of friends with whom you have a very close relationship.

In this way, Shui Qingzhang did not regard Li Yuanlang as an outsider, at least not yet.

Li Yuanlang benefited a lot. Listening to Jun's words is worth ten years of reading. Shui Qingzhang gave him an extra vivid ideological and political lesson, which not only improved his cognitive level, but also indirectly brought out the weak side of Li Yuanlang's character.

That means he is not cruel enough to his enemies. As Shui Qingzhang said, kindness to the enemy is cruelty to his comrades.

Li Yuanlang was well aware of this, and it was due to his character and good conscience. If he really encountered it, he couldn't guarantee whether he would be able to do it.

Shui Qingzhang saw Li Yuanlang thinking deeply and continued: "I have been in the officialdom for many years. Whether I have ever done anything against my conscience or not, I have done it only as a last resort.

For example, my treatment of you goes against my original intention. Yuen Long, you are a good person. At least you are kind-hearted and willing to do practical things for the people. I am optimistic about you, not because Tingyue likes you. Without this

Even though you have a high-level relationship, I will still pay attention to your growth."

After Shui Qingzhang said this, he stubbed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray and took another one in his mouth. However, Li Yuanlang stopped him and advised him to smoke less.

"One more, it's rare that I'm in the mood, otherwise it would be too boring for us to chat." Unexpectedly, the number one boss in Guangnan City made a plea in front of his subordinate Li Yuanlang. It was really interesting.

"Okay, but take your time and smoke this one, just leave half of it."

"Well, I listen to you." He leaned forward and connected the front end of Shui Qingzhang's cigarette with the flame of the lighter handed over by Li Yuanlang. He took a big drag and said, "Strategy is divided into conspiracy and conspiracy.

Conspiracy is about bad people behind the scenes, with bad intentions, and making bad moves. But conspiracy is not the same. Conspiracy is about using strategies openly and openly in the eyes of the other party. Yuen Long, when you walk in the officialdom from now on, you must use strategies and use conspiracy.

, remember that conspiracy is not available."

"Thank you for your teaching." Li Yuanlang expressed his inner feelings and gratitude. He and Shui Qingzhang had known each other for these days, and this was the first time that Shui Qingzhang had talked to him so much and for so long.

With a "bang", Gu Hongyan pushed the door open at this moment and came in. Shui Qingzhang was just puffing away the mist and enjoying the comfort. Gu Hongyan frowned and complained angrily: "Tap, puff, just puff. Whenever you have a heart attack,

No one cares about you anymore."

Shui Qingzhang was so frightened that he quickly put out the cigarette butt and said with a smile: "Just this time, I won't smoke like this next time. I'll quit after smoking this pack."

"I still want to smoke this pack, you are so beautiful, I confiscated it." While speaking, Gu Hongyan snatched the Chinese cigarette box domineeringly, and said to Li Yuanlang dissatisfied: "You too, Qingzhang smokes like this

Don't stop him, do you have any sympathy? Qingzhang's accident will not do you any good."

Gu Hongyan lectured Li Yuanlang unreasonably, but he was not angry at all. This showed that Gu Hongyan did not treat him as an outsider and his attitude had changed slightly. This was a rare good signal and a good start.

I don't know when Shui Tingyue followed up and spoke for Yuen Long: "Mom, why do you blame Yuen Long for my dad smoking? It's not him who forced my dad to smoke."

"You..." Gu Hongyan didn't expect that her daughter would stand up for Li Yuanlang, and her face turned red. She was about to refute, but she heard Shui Qingzhang laughing loudly and pointing at her daughter and said: "It's true that women are not allowed to stay in the university. What's the matter?

Just protect Yuen Long, it seems that your mother and I are going to prepare a dowry for you."

"Dad, what are you talking about?" Shui Tingyue's pretty face and cheeks were filled with blush, and she had a strange and twitchy look, which was very endearing. Li Yuanlang felt as if honey had been applied to his heart, and it was extremely sweet.

Gu Hongyan patted Shui Qingzhang on the shoulder, implying that he was blaming him for talking nonsense. Li Yuanlang knew that Gu Hongyan had said at the beginning that he could not marry her daughter unless he got to the county level. This guarantee ticket had not expired, so he still

It takes effort.

There is only half a step between the level of a senior scientist and the level of a deputy director, but the elimination rate is very high. Hundreds of thousands of people have reached the end of the line after reaching the senior level, and can no longer move up, and in the end they can only retire at this position.

Therefore, there is a long way to go. Fortunately, Li Yuanlang is young and has plenty of opportunities. The premise is that he must seize them.

After saying these words, it was already past nine o'clock and almost ten o'clock in the evening. Li Yuanlang was afraid of disturbing Shui Qingzhang's family's rest, so he stood up and left.

Unexpectedly, Shui Qingzhang said: "It's so late and you don't have a place to stay in Yunyang. You might as well stay here. Anyway, there are still vacant guest rooms upstairs."

Gu Hongyan immediately objected: "How is this possible? What's the matter with Li Yuanlang living in our house? It won't sound good if it gets spread."

Shui Qingzhang said: "What's wrong? With one more person, the house can be more lively. You don't have this old idea."

"You..." Gu Hongyan was too anxious to speak again. Shui Tingyue took Li Yuanlang's arm with a smile and happily dragged him upstairs. On the way, she secretly said to Li Yuanlang:

"Don't lock the door at night, I'll go find you..."
