official career

"I am the deputy head of the township. I am in charge of civil affairs and concurrently serve as the director of the civil affairs office. This is a temporary measure in itself and does not conform to the rules."

"You were also in charge of civil affairs as the deputy mayor and also served as the director of the civil affairs office, but you only served for more than a month, didn't you?" Xu Zhidong continued.

"Major Xu, since you have invited me to your home today and you have not invited anyone else, we may as well speak up if you have anything to say." Qin Feng did not intend to continue playing riddles with Xu Zhidong here.

"Okay, then I'll say something heartfelt to Secretary Qin today. Secretary Qin, it's not that I don't want to be the director of the Civil Affairs Office, but that I don't dare to do it anymore." Xu Zhidong put down his glass and said directly.

"Why? So many people are squeezing their heads to be the director."

"Bishan is a poor town, and all the money is allocated from the top. So unlike other towns, there are only one or two rich departments in Bishan, and the Civil Affairs Office ranks first. If you can sit normally In this position, the deputy head of the township and the director of the Civil Affairs Office let me choose the two positions. I would rather choose the director of the Civil Affairs Office, which is why I followed Li Ji closely."

"But I can't hold on to this position now." Xu Zhidong changed the subject and had another drink with Qin Feng.

"Our township chief is a typical second-generation official with high eyesight and low power. He is not very capable and has a big temper. He is also domineering. The most important thing is that he doesn't follow the rules at all and doesn't care about other people's life or death."

"Bishan doesn't have much money for him to squander, so he just keeps an eye on my civil affairs office's little money. Since I became the director of the civil affairs office, I have gone to Shannan to pay for his food, drink, prostitution and gambling three times. "

"Often when I receive a call from him suddenly, I have to obediently take the money and go to Shannan to pay him. If I go too late, I will scold my mother on the spot. With the lessons learned by Xiao Bo, I dare not go to the Civil Affairs Bureau for the money that cannot be reported. To get it from the account, you can only pay it from yourself.”

"I wanted to be the director of the Civil Affairs Office. With money and power in my hand, I could get some money, but I didn't get the money. I have already paid in about 5 yuan."

"If it's these things, it's fine. Recently, he and Hu Biao are discussing a lighting project again, planning to install street lights on all the streets in Bishan."

"I don't know the exact amount of the project, but I think it's at least 50 yuan. Where did the money come from? It's [-]% the idea of ​​the Civil Affairs Office."

"Secretary Qin, if he approves this project and asks my civil affairs office to pay him in advance, do you think I will pay or not? If I do, I think I will not be far from Xiao Bo's end. He is the head of the township , and the county magistrate's son, if something really happened, it can't be his responsibility, it can only be me, the scapegoat."

"What if I don't agree? He is a person who will repay his flaws. He is terribly small-minded, and he holds vengeance very much. He offended him... Hehe, I don't have the secretary of the county party committee to back me up. My fate will not be much better."

"I thought it would be a great thing to be the director of the Civil Affairs Office, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this. Both ends are dead ends. The only way for me now is to be the deputy head of the township and resign as the director of the Civil Affairs Office. I am not The person in charge, it is impossible for him to ask me for money again." Xu Zhidong poured out his bitterness.

Qin Feng kept turning the wine glass with his hands, and asked Xu Zhidong with a smile: "Mayor Xu should go to Wang Yunfei or Li Ji for this idea, not me."

"Secretary Qin, I can only come to you for this." Xu Zhidong toasted Qin Feng again.

"Everyone knows the current situation in Bishan. Wang Yunfei is just a puppet of Li Ji. Li Ji pushed me into this position. If I go to him, he will not agree to my resignation as the director of the Civil Affairs Office, but will offend him. "

"The only person in Bishan who dares to confront Li Ji is you, and your background is no worse than him, everyone understands that."

"Secretary Qin, I'm about to be driven to death by him. Although I'm a small person who dare not offend him face to face, I promise that whenever Secretary Qin needs me, Xu Zhidong will be absolutely heartbroken." Xu Zhidong hastily expressed his sincerity.

Qin Feng would not be so stupid as to really believe what someone like Xu Zhidong said, and he didn't need Xu Zhidong to show his loyalty to him.

Qin Feng took a sip of his wine and didn't speak.

"Secretary Qin, have you ever thought about it? If the position of the Civil Affairs Office is always controlled by Li Ji, sooner or later there will be problems in the Civil Affairs Office. It took more than half a year for the last accident, and now there are problems again, and Secretary Qin will not be good by then. Is it right to explain to the county party committee? The most important thing is that the people in Bishan are suffering." Seeing Qin Feng's indifference, Xu Zhidong said.

Xu Zhidong had a good grasp of Qin Feng's thoughts.

"So, the only way is to hand over the Civil Affairs Office to you. Although Lin Xiaoyan was sent to the village, she is still a member of our Civil Affairs Office. I will call her back to work tomorrow and let her actually preside over the Work in the Civil Affairs Office. Li Ji is away from Bishan for eight out of ten days, so as long as I don’t tell him about these things, he will never know.”

"I have a stomach problem. It's an old problem. I plan to ask for leave and go to Shannan for hospitalization in a few days."

"Minister Luo specifically emphasized democratic centralism and the subordination of the minority to the majority when he came last time. As long as Secretary Qin mentions this matter at the meeting, it can be passed by a vote. Wang Yunfei dare not disrespect the decision of the vote." I have said all my thoughts.

Qin Feng just clinked glasses with Xu Zhidong, and did not give Xu Zhidong a positive answer until the end.

Xu Zhidong only wanted to please Li Ji to climb up, but he didn't expect to be driven crazy by Li Ji in the end, and now he just wanted to throw this hot potato to Qin Feng.

Xu Zhidong is not a villain, but he is by no means an upright person. His personality is more like Xu Guoli. He can't be said to be a bad person, but he is by no means a good person.

However, although Xu Zhidong's character is poor, his work ability is not bad. At least the Civil Affairs Office has been in his hands for so long and there have been no problems for the time being.

He is also a smart person, and he didn't dare to play tricks on the accounts of the Civil Affairs Office, because he knew that Qin Feng had been keeping an eye on the Civil Affairs Office. At least he was much smarter than Xiao Bo in this regard.

The next day Xu Zhidong really called Lin Xiaoyan back to work in the Civil Affairs Office.

Working in the village is a part-time job, but Xu Zhidong canceled all of Lin Xiaoyan's jobs in the Civil Affairs Office because of suppressing Qin Feng, so Lin Xiaoyan could only stay in Niujiaoshan Village full-time.

Now Xu Zhidong called Lin Xiaoyan back and resumed all of Lin Xiaoyan's previous jobs. In fact, Lin Xiaoyan became the deputy director of the Civil Affairs Office and continued to preside over the daily work of the Civil Affairs Office.

After Xu Zhidong called Lin Xiaoyan back, he took sick leave on the grounds of seeing a doctor and was admitted to the County People's Hospital.

But Li Ji didn't know about all this, he was still spending time in Shannan, and he and Hu Biao were thinking about how to get money from the Civil Affairs Office for the lighting project.
