Without a leader in the car, the driver, Lao Chen, seemed particularly relaxed. He turned on the tape recorder and hummed Yan Weiwen's "Little White Poplar" to the rhythm. Although Shen Tong did not have a deep understanding of the revolutionary songs of the older generation, he could learn from the songs. In the rhythm, I can feel the little white poplar post on the border between China and Kazakhstan. The soldiers stand tall and tall, composing the ambition to fight bravely and defend the border. A piece of music that cleanses the soul and inherits the strength of the Chinese people. His will has influenced an entire generation.
Shen Tong took out a cigarette, lit it, handed it to Lao Chen, looked forward, stretched out his hand to take the cigarette, and said his first words along the way, asking: "Tan Zhiyuan didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
Shen Tong took a puff of smoke and said, "No."
"You have to be careful about this person. He is very evil-minded and often makes things difficult for others behind their backs." Old Chen, a steady and honest person, warned kindly.
Shen Tong was very grateful for Old Chen's kind reminder and said: "Uncle Chen, thank you for the reminder, I will pay attention to it."
Old Chen seemed to have opened up the chatterbox and said: "I don't know what this Tan Zhiyuan has to do with him. From a small clerk in the Agricultural Machinery Bureau, he was transferred to the county party committee office and became the chief of the comprehensive section. After Secretary Wu came, although there were some I can't stand him, but I haven't adjusted his position, and even Director Zhang gave him a three-pointer. It is said that his wife's cousin is the current municipal party committee secretary. It's hard to say whether this is the case."
Shen Tong has learned about Tan Zhiyuan's despicable methods, but he is not afraid of this villain. Everyone has weaknesses, especially those who like to play tricks and put everyone on the opposite side. Public opinion is his fatal weakness.
While chatting, the topic turned to Qiaoman from the secretarial department. Old Chen said: "Qiaoman is 32 years old this year. He used to be the host of the county TV station. His handsome appearance and elegant hosting style suddenly became the most popular among women and children in the county. A well-known celebrity. Later, the county transferred a female deputy secretary of the county party committee. He fell in love with her and transferred her from the TV station to his side and became a secretary. Later, the female secretary was promoted and transferred, but She was not taken away, and she was assigned to the confidential room of the county party committee. She has her own office, but she still works in the secretarial department. It has to be said that it is a miracle that she can continue to work in the county party committee office."
Shen Tong himself was full of curiosity about Qiao Man. Hearing what Lao Chen said, it was even more mysterious. He knew that Lao Chen just talked about it briefly, but the deeper Lao Chen seemed to be Deliberately avoiding the taboo, since he didn't say anything, Shen Tong didn't ask.
Entering the town government seat of Dongguan Town, Shen Tong saw an official who looked like a ball from a distance, standing there with his hands on his hips giving instructions. Old Chen told him that this person was Zhou Haisheng, which surprised Shen Tong.
Zhou Haisheng seemed to have recognized Zhang Liwei's car. Just now, he held his chest up and raised his head, arrogantly raising his fingers to draw circles in the air. Now he ran over with difficulty on his short legs, shaking the fat on his belly. While running, His head was shaking from side to side like a weight, and his thick lips were stretched to the base of his ears, revealing two rows of yellow and black teeth. From a distance, it looked like two pieces of bacon hanging from his lips, which looked very funny.
After Lao Chen parked the car, Zhou Haisheng hurriedly came over to open the door. When he opened the door and found that it was not Zhang Liwei, the smile instantly solidified on his face, his two small eyes flapped and his nose twitched slightly. But Zhou Haisheng reacted quickly and smiled Soon it was back on the face.
After Shen Tong got out of the car, Zhou Haisheng stretched out his fat hands and grabbed Shen Tong's hand tightly and said: "Welcome the county leaders to come from afar to guide the work."
Shen Tong hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Secretary Zhou, please don't call me that way. Shen Tong, I'm new here and I need more guidance from you."
After Zhou Haisheng learned that this person was the young man who called him just now, he looked him up and down and said to himself: "This young man has extraordinary bearing. Secretary Wu has relied on him at a young age. This man has great energy and a bright future. He said with a very sophisticated look: "Little brother, I can't talk about giving guidance, let alone support. Maybe I will need you to support me in the future. You came here to guide the work with Secretary Wu's instructions. In the Qing Dynasty, you were the imperial envoy, hahaha..."
Shen Tong was a little disgusted with Zhou Haisheng's appearance just now, but after a few words of conversation, Zhou Haisheng's bold and forthright personality felt more cordial, and he couldn't help but admire him. He said to himself: "It seems you can't judge people by their appearance." Then Shen Tong said: "Zhou Haisheng" Secretary, I am just a junior clerk in the county party committee office. I have nothing to do with guidance. Director Zhang has asked me to cooperate with you to provide good logistics services. I hope you can be more considerate when we meet for the first time."
Zhou Haisheng still smiled honestly, and consciously stood behind Shen Tong, then pointed forward and said: "Brother Shen, look at the sanitation on this street. I plan to hang one every 10 meters." The banner 'Welcome Director Jiang to Dongguan Town to guide work', what do you think?"
Shen Tong frowned. He remembered the three words Zhang Liwei told him to "keep a low profile", so he said: "Secretary Zhou, I heard Director Zhang said that Director Jiang's trip is not a business matter, but a private matter. Presumably he doesn't want to make a big deal about it." I don’t think it’s necessary to hang banners for greetings, what do you think?”
Zhou Haisheng's little eyes rolled around, as if he suddenly realized something. He patted his head and said, "Brother Shen is right, why didn't you think of it?" After saying that, he pointed at a person hanging a banner in front of him and shouted loudly: "Hey, you guys, come down quickly and stop hanging up."
Who knew that those people had bad ears or something, but they still went their own way, standing on the ladder and hanging unhurriedly. This scene made Zhou Haisheng uneasy, and he cursed angrily: "Hey, you guys, Didn't you hear what I said? I told you not to hang up, so why are you still hanging up? What a bastard."
Several people were very angry and were scolded by Zhou Haisheng, muttering maliciously. One man threw the vise on the ground, then pulled it hard, and tore the newly hung banner "stab la" from the middle. It's open.
This time Zhou Haisheng became even more angry. He jumped up to three feet in anger, stamped his feet and cursed: "You losers can't be more cautious. Do you know that a banner costs 5 yuan? Forget it, this month's duty subsidy will be deducted." "
Shen Tong on the side heard that Zhou Haisheng was so frugal and looked very cute when he was angry, and he became even more fond of him.
At this time, Zhou Haisheng turned around and said with a smile: "Brother Shen is going to laugh. All these cadres are uncles. When they ask for money for meals, they will support each other. If you want him to work, you will complain so much that you will curse your mother."
Shen Tong smiled and asked, "Secretary Zhou, how are the preparations in the village going?"
Zhou Haisheng patted the dust on his sleeves and said, "Mayor Han has arranged some decorations in the village. How about we go take a look together now?"
