It was already dark when Chen Jing came out of the "Palm"!
Lao Qiu is very talkative and an elegant person.
He has been working as a nursery stocker for most of his life. He has been to all parts of the country. His favorite thing is to go deep into nature to look for good seedlings and tree species.
In his own words, the seedlings in his current "palm" yard are enough to run a botanical garden. Even some of the rare tree species he owns are not owned by the Lingnan Botanical Garden.
Chen Jing followed Lao Qiu and learned a lot about plants and bonsai.
Chen Jing didn't have many friends in Lingnan, and he was under a lot of pressure at work. He didn't have much entertainment after get off work. Being able to come over to talk to Lao Qiu occasionally was a rare relaxation.
Driving home at night, I walked on the national highway from Blue River to Wangjiang.
There are many cars at this time and it is very crowded.
Suddenly, Chen Jing saw a girl standing next to the road. The girl waved vigorously at the passing bus and kept yelling.
Unfortunately, it was the peak traffic period and the buses didn't stop. She chased them for a long time and finally stopped in frustration.
This girl is clearly Yin Tingting.
Indeed, life is not easy in a place like Lingnan. A girl as old as Yin Tingting, if she were in the mainland, might still cuddle up to her parents every day and act coquettishly, or she might have married into a good family, and her husband's family had good conditions and lived a normal life.
A carefree and leisurely life.
But in Lingnan, she could only get up early and work late at night. She said it was for her dream, but in fact it was hard work for survival.
Yin Tingting stood on the side of the road very annoyed. She signed the order today and was in a good mood. She came out of the "Palm" and visited several customers in one go, but missed the last bus into the city.
She could only stand at the intersection and wait for passing cars. She stood here for half an hour and couldn't wait for a single car.
Just when she was at a loss, a black Passat stopped beside her. The window was lowered and the driver honked the horn several times.
Yin Tingting was stunned for a moment, then she came over and used the light outside to see clearly Chen Jing who was driving.
Her eyes lit up, she opened the door with a smile and said, "Oh, what a coincidence! Chen Jing and we are quite destined. We met twice today!"
Yin Tingting People who rely on their mouth to eat are naturally good at talking.
What's more, she is going to take Chen Jing's ride home today, so her tone is naturally more enthusiastic!
Chen Jing smiled and said nothing. After a while, he said: "You have a good harvest today. You signed a big deal!"
Yin Tingting giggled and said: "Thanks to you, my salary is paid this month! We are not like you, we have to work every day. If we don't work hard for a day, we will have to drink the northwest wind if we don't get the order. You know I still pay.
Where’s the house!”
Chen Jingdao: "Okay, I didn't say you were a liar. Just now Lao Qiu told me that you have been to his place more than a dozen times and helped him sell bonsai. He was moved by your sincerity!"
Yin Tingting blinked her eyes and said, "Really?"
Chen Jing smiled and said: "Fake! You work so hard, pestering others to sell these conceptual things every day, haven't you ever thought about changing your job?"
Yin Tingting was silent for a while, sighed, and said: "Chen Jing, it's easy for you to say that! College students like you, with good postgraduate conditions, can naturally do decent jobs. After we graduate from high school, what good jobs are suitable for us?
Generally, working in a factory only costs a few hundred yuan. The salary is too low and life is even more difficult. Now that we are doing this kind of business, as long as we work hard, we can earn three to four thousand a month, and I am very satisfied!"
Chen Jing looked back at her and said, "Oh. See what you said, do you know what I do?"
Yin Tingting blushed and felt very embarrassed.
At first, she really thought Chen Jing was a freeloader, but through subsequent observations, she found something was wrong again.
Chen Jing seems to be very busy every day. He leaves early and comes back late every day. Sometimes he seems to come back quite late.
Moreover, when Chen Jing went in and out, he never saw any women following him. He didn't look like the kind of man who relied on women for food.
This made her extremely envious.
It has only been a few days since I came to the south. I will have a car and a house soon. I should study more. People with knowledge and ability can live happily in society.
Recently, she often calls her younger brother who is in college at home, telling him to study hard. She also has to work hard to let him go to graduate school, so that he will be awesome in the future...
Due to the lack of topics, Chen Jing and Yin Tingting did not say much and were silent most of the time.
In her mind, Yin Tingting was probably thinking about where she would go to kill customers tomorrow, and how she would get an order out so that she could make a little money or something.
Chen Jing was thinking about how to deal with some matters in the district, and about possible omissions in the planning of the entire neighborhood.
Sitting in the same car, the two of them are in completely different worlds, and the things they are thinking in their minds are thousands of miles apart.
This is the gap between people. The grassroots want to survive, and the officials want political achievements. There seems to be no intersection.
No matter how well Chen Jing plays his neighbor, how much does it have to do with Yin Tingting?
When will ordinary people's lives no longer be so tiring and helpless?
These questions are very heavy, so heavy that there are no answers...
…
Chen Jing woke up from his sleep and it was already bright outside.
Yin Tingting was very happy yesterday. She signed a big order and earned more than 3,000 yuan per order.
She took a ride on Chen Jing's train again, and when she came back, she was clamoring for a treat.
The treat was spicy hotpot and beer. Although the meal only cost more than 30 yuan, it was quite generous for a budget-conscious white-collar worker like Yin Tingting.
The two of them drank beer and started talking about each other.
Yin Tingting said that she lived in a mountainous area in southern Chu. The place was very poor and was a national-level poverty-stricken county. Girls' families generally did not send them to school.
She is already considered a good person, her family sent her to high school, and she is considered a high-quality woman in the village.
Talking about the reason, the main reason is that there are only two siblings in their family, and there is a big age gap between her and her brother. The family conditions are considered to be decent in the local area, otherwise how would they have the chance to go to high school?
After all, in a place where boys are valued over girls, family resources are concentrated on the boys in the family, and girls have to give up a lot of things.
When Yin Tingting said this, she was very calm and even grateful. She felt that her parents had done their best to send him to school, and she was much better off than many girls in the same village.
Chen Jing knew through chatting with Yin Tingting.
Yin Tingting can now earn almost 50,000 yuan a year if she works hard.
It costs more than 10,000 yuan for her brother to go to school, which she has to bear. The monthly payment for her own house is about 20,000 yuan, and there is still more than 10,000 yuan. She saves 5,000 yuan every year, and the rest is for living expenses.
Spending thousands of dollars a year, in a city like this, you can imagine the tight situation.
Chen Jing suddenly felt that he seemed to be far away from ordinary people's lives.
When an official no longer lives the life of an ordinary person, and they can no longer taste the ups and downs of ordinary people's lives, can he still think of the interests of the people at all times?
Chen Jing used to be very confident and felt that he was a cadre who grew up from the grassroots level and would never forget the grassroots level.
But now, when his life is no longer in its original state, with good food and clothing for a long time, and no worries about material life, he can't help but shake his confidence!
Driving to work, Chen Jing found that he was almost half an hour late today.
When Chen Jing arrived at the district committee, committee director Liu Qufeng and newly appointed Yuyun Town Party Committee Secretary Qin Lan were waiting for him at the door of his office.
Seeing Chen Jing approaching, the two of them hurriedly greeted him.
Qin Lan said: "Secretary, I have something to report to you!"
He paused and said: "We in Yuyun Town are planning to hold a ceremony for furniture companies to settle in the park. Director Liu helped us plan and prepare. Everything is now done!"
Chen Jing nodded and said: "That's good, Yuyun Town can make this a success, and the district committee must give strong support!"
Qin Lan smiled unnaturally and said: "But now there is a problem. Originally, Deputy Mayor Feng had promised to attend this ceremony. But as the date was approaching, the municipal government office called and said that Mayor Feng
The schedule can’t be accommodated!
You said that if there are no city leaders participating in the ceremony, our standards are too low!"
Chen Jing frowned, and Liu Qufeng said from the side: "We contacted other leaders, but Feng Shi didn't come, and the other leaders didn't want to come! Now we are very passive."
"On this matter, you two came to me to learn from me?" Chen Jingweng said in a loud voice.
Qin Lan and Liu Qufeng both blushed. Qin Lan said:
"Secretary, there is a Hongbo Technology Co., Ltd. in the city. They said they can help us hire Vice Mayor Feng, but they will have to pay 100,000 yuan for communication project renovation!"
"What nonsense? One hundred thousand? If you give him one hundred thousand, he will definitely be able to invite Vice Mayor Feng?" Chen Jing said angrily, "Or do you mean that Vice Mayor Feng doesn't want to come because you don't have enough money?"
The reason?"
"You don't have to think about it. As an important leader of the city, Vice Mayor Feng is such a lax self-discipline?" Chen Jing said angrily.
"You two are confused. Fortunately you didn't mess around, otherwise you wouldn't know how much trouble you would have caused!"
Qin Lan and Liu Qufeng looked very embarrassed and stood there not knowing how to speak properly.
Chen Jing walked into the office, sat down on his office chair, and closed his eyes slightly.
It is almost certain that what Qin Lan and Liu Qufeng encountered was a trap. As long as they gave away the 100,000 yuan, there was no telling what trouble would happen later.
It's true that when a tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop, there are always people racking their brains and trying every means to hinder the normal development of their neighbors.
Chen Jing gently touched the armrest of the seat, his expression became extremely ugly.
He felt that he might no longer be as stable as Mount Tai. These days, good people are bullied, good people are bullied, and others bully them to the extreme. If he doesn't find a way to fight back, he doesn't know how many things will happen next!
Chen Jing frowned again at the thought of counterattack.
We are still short of manpower. Tong Xiaoli from the Political and Legal Committee and the Public Security Bureau are not of the same mind as me! (To be continued...)
