After Zhou Haiyang finished speaking, before Lin Qiunan could react, he picked up the phone on his desk and dialed Yao Peidong's office.

"I'm sorry, County Magistrate Yao, but I have to ask you to help me block the road again."

Yao Peidong asked with a smile on the other end of the phone: "What's wrong? Is it from the province or the city this time?"

Zhou Haiyang said with a wry smile: "In the province, Gao Zhansheng, the deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee.

Lin Qiunan is in my office at the moment and said that it has been arranged at noon today.

I'll ask Qiu Jianfeng to accompany you, and then you can just help me prevaricate a few words in front of Gao Zhansheng."

"Okay! Let Lin Qiunan and Qiu Jianfeng wait for me in the yard."

Putting down the phone, Zhou Haiyang said to Lin Qiunan: "Okay! You heard it too. County Magistrate Yao and Director Qiu will accompany you."

Lin Qiunan stared at Zhou Haiyang, not knowing why.

…

Since Zhou Haiyang came to Renyuan County, in order to deal with unnecessary entertainment, he made a private agreement with Yao Peidong.

All leaders from the province and Huaining City who have nothing to do with the work in charge will be accompanied by Yao Peidong.

Zhou Haiyang stepped in to help receive all the visitors from various units and towns under Renyuan County who had nothing to do with the work report route.

The two of them each got what they needed and cooperated tacitly.

…

Lin Qiunan, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Renyuan County Party Committee, arranged a luncheon for Gao Zhansheng, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, in the Bamboo Hall of the Lakeside Hotel.

Hubin Hotel is the most luxurious star-rated hotel in Renyuan County. The Bamboo Hall pursues a simple and elegant style.

Under the leadership of Lin Qiunan, Yao Peidong and Qiu Jianfeng walked into the bamboo hall, and Lin Qiunan introduced them to each other.

Yao Peidong held Gao Zhansheng's hand and apologized: "I'm sorry, Minister Gao, Secretary Zhou is preparing to summarize the materials for the conference and really can't spare the time.

Let me and Comrade Qiu Jianfeng, director of the county party committee office, accompany you and Director Wang on his behalf."

Gao Zhansheng is not only a sensible person, but also a cheerful and forthright person. Although he is a superior leader, he has no airs.

Hearing what Yao Peidong said, he immediately understood that Zhou Haiyang didn't want to give him this opportunity.

He smiled knowingly: "Haha! I can understand, I can understand, Secretary Zhou is also doing this to protect Secretary Mingshan's work.

I heard that when he was the deputy county magistrate of Boxing County, he set a rule for himself.

As long as they are superiors from the province, they will not be seen if they are not related to the work they are responsible for.

Many comrades working in the province have no chance to get to know Secretary Mingshan in their daily work.

So I tried to take advantage of the county to get closer to Deputy County Magistrate Zhou, but I was rejected for this."

Yao Peidong continued: "Haha, Secretary Zhou is just such a person.

He doesn't like to build relationships for himself under the banner of his father's generation.

Taking the project of cooperation between Renyuan County and the Port Authority, he was unwilling to use the two directors of his father-in-law, Secretary Chang Yuan, in the Ministry of Communications.

I don’t even like others trying to get close to me for the sake of my parents.

I wish Minister Gao could understand this! On behalf of Secretary Zhou, I would like to thank Minister Gao."

…

After three glasses of wine, the people present started talking about topics ranging from Zhou Haiyang’s talk to the personnel changes in the provincial party committee.

Then he talked about anecdotes about leadership, and he went on endlessly.

Yao Peidong took this opportunity to not only get closer to Minister Gao, but also learn a lot of information from within the provincial party committee.

Lin Qiunan said from the side: "Minister Gao is a cultural person and has published a collection of essays."

Yao Peidong continued: "Lin Qiunan, please find Minister Gao's book and I will read it carefully."

Gao Zhansheng immediately said: "I have a book in the car. After drinking, I will get you a copy. After reading it, I will give you more opinions."

While drinking and drinking, Gao Zhansheng said to Yao Peidong: "Your Minister Lin is very capable, you must reuse him."

From Gao Zhansheng's eyes, Yao Peidong could see that he had a naked affection for Lin Qiunan.

Lin Qiunan also clearly felt the burning sting of Minister Gao's gaze, and she immediately toasted her superiors with a few more glasses of wine to express her gratitude.

Lin Qiunan kept asking for toasts, drinking one glass after another. Gao Zhansheng and Yao Peidong drank happily.

Director Wang from the Civilization Office was obviously drunk. His tongue was enlarged when he spoke, and he said sticky words over and over again.

The more Gao Zhansheng drank, the more he talked, and the more he drank, the happier he became. He was an alcohol-excited person.

Yao Peidong knew in his heart that the best way to deal with such people is just one word: drink!

The other party won't give up until the other party is drunk.

Finally, Gao Zhansheng was drunk, and Yao Peidong himself felt a little drunk.

He didn't expect that the five of them drank two kilograms of Wuliangye and ten bottles of beer today.

It was not until later that Yao Peidong felt that Lin Qiunan's behavior was a little strange, so he put away his glass in time and ended the banquet.

The luncheon lasted until two o'clock in the afternoon. After watching Lin Qiunan and Director Wang help Gao Zhansheng into the elevator, Yao Peidong felt a little heavy at this time.

He had no choice but to tell Qiu Jianfeng and ask the driver Lao Fang to take him home.

…

On Tuesday afternoon, Qiu Jianfeng sent a notice from the provincial party committee to Zhou Haiyang, asking him to go to the province next Monday to participate in the party-building work meetings of cities and counties across the province.

All city and county party committee secretaries and deputy secretaries in charge of party building organizations are required to participate.

Including the journey, it takes four days from beginning to end.

Zhou Haiyang asked Qiu Jianfeng to inform Xinghua and ask him to prepare meeting materials.

This was his first meeting in the province since he took office in Renyuan County, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.

This kind of meeting is said to be learning, but in fact it is a change of mind and a kind of relaxation.

When I arrived in Ningcheng, I could not only see my wife Pei Xiaohong and her parents, but also Liu...

Thinking of this, he immediately picked up the landline phone on his desk and made a call. A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

Zhou Haiyang said with a smile: "It's not easy to find you! What are you doing?"

"Is it you? Why did you suddenly think of me today?" Liu Yan asked on the other end of the phone.

"What do you mean I just thought of you today, I called you several times, and they all said you went to the countryside."

"Both and each other, I also called you several times, and they all said that you went to investigate."

"Both of us came from the grassroots level and can't stay in the office.

I still like to go to the grassroots level and breathe fresh air. Have you received the notice of the provincial meeting? "

"I got it, are you going?"

"Can you not go? I'm very busy these days. Not only do I have to deal with things, but I also have to deal with people. It's just a good time to take a meeting to rest and relax."

"As you can imagine, when you came to Renyuan, you were ordered to do so at a critical moment. Can you not be busy?"

"Isn't it the same for you? To succeed Sun Quanming..."

"Sun Quanming caused certain losses to the country because of personal problems.

But at least the members of the Yongfeng County Party Committee are still united, and all work has not been delayed. I am just here to take charge.

That Zhang Yiping left you with a hard nut to crack.

I know that Yao Peidong is not something that ordinary people can deal with."

"I heard that Lili is going to be transferred to the Science and Technology Department of Jiangning Province?"

"Yes! The transfer procedures have been completed. Come back to Ningcheng with me this time." Liu Yan asked on the other end of the phone: "By the way, when are you going to leave?"

"We will set off early this Sunday. When we arrive in Ningcheng, we will first check in at the hotel, then go home. We will have dinner at home and then return to the hotel. What about you?"

"It's almost like you! It's been a long time since we last met..."

"Okay, I won't tell you any more. I still have to tell Xiaohong. Let's talk about it when we meet on Sunday night."

After putting down the phone, Zhou Haiyang made another call to his wife Pei Xiaohong.
