Chapter 19: The Mayor Summons
Tang Zhiyong is a decisive person, although he is already at the deputy section level at this moment, but after hearing Liu Qingyu's decision to let him be a trainee junior brother, he did not hesitate at all, nodded directly and said: "Okay, no problem, the boss is on top, the younger brother respects you, from now on, you are my boss." With that, Tang Zhiyong picked up his wine glass again and toasted Liu Qingyu.
Both sides drank it all.
After drinking, Tang Zhiyong looked at Liu Qingyu and said, "Boss, I see that your face seems to be in a bad mood, I wonder if there is anything in Lu Dao that I can tell my junior brother?"
Liu Qingyu sighed and said, "Hey, it's not for our disaster relief in Guanshan Town. As he spoke, Liu Qingyu briefly told the disaster in Guanshan Town and the unsuccessful request for help from Deputy Mayor Su Haodong at the municipal government.
After Tang Zhiyong listened, he immediately gave a thumbs up and said, "Boss, you are so awesome, a small mayor dares to go directly to the city to ask for money." Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and said: "But I believe that with your heart for the country and the people, I believe that God will definitely favor you." ”
Liu Qingyu smiled faintly and said: "Whatever, whether there is God's favor or not, as long as I sit in the position of the mayor one day, I must do more practical things for the people in the town, only in this way can I be worthy of my conscience." Here, another drink. ”
That night, Liu Qingyu and Tang Zhiyong both drank a lot, but Liu Qingyu was in a bad mood, although his alcohol consumption was very amazing, but he was the fastest drunk, and he was helped back to the hotel by Tang Zhiyong and Han Xiangyi after the worst. And what really made Tang Zhiyong happy and convinced of Liu Qingyu was that even when he was drunk, Liu Qingyu was still chattering: "Mayor, leaders, there is a flood in our Guanshan Town, you can allocate some disaster relief funds......
That night, when Tang Zhiyong returned home, it was already past 11 o'clock in the evening, and Tang Zhiyong walked directly to his father's study.
In the study, Executive Vice Mayor Tang Jianguo was reviewing documents.
Tang Zhiyong walked up to his father and said in a deep voice: "Dad, I'm going to work in Guanshan Town." ”
After hearing this, Tang Jianguo couldn't help frowning: "What are you going to do to work in Guanshan Town? Do you want to be a deputy mayor? No, although your level is enough, your qualifications are still too shallow, and your ability is not enough." ”
Tang Zhiyong shook his head and said, "No, I'm going to be a driver." ”
Tang Jianguo's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Tang Zhiyong incredulously and said, "What? You are going to be a driver? I heard you right?"
Tang Zhiyong nodded vigorously and said: "Dad, what I said is true, Dad, I know that I haven't listened to you much over the years, eating, drinking and having fun everywhere, making you bothered, if I continue to play, I'm afraid I'm a wasted person, just today I met my boss, and now I have been accepted by him as a trainee brother, so I want to go to Guanshan Town to be a driver for him and start my life again." ”
"What, boss, apprentice, driver, what's going on?" Tang Jianguo was completely shocked. He never imagined that these words would come from the mouth of his son who broke his heart but had never done his job.
Tang Zhiyong explained in detail the conflict between him and Dong Tianba today, as well as the situation when Liu Qingyu and Han Xiangyi helped him resolve the crisis, and the three of them drank and chatted together, and then said: " Dad, in fact, I don't really like the previous life of eating, drinking and having fun, just because as the second generation of officials, as your son, there are so many people who dare to slap me, flatter me, make me fluttering, and lose my life goal, but this time in the conflict with Dong Tianba, I saw my cowardice and powerlessness, as your son, although I can do a lot of things that others can't do, but once I meet a more powerful Yanai than me, I am nothing. Now I want to understand that the days of you stepping on me and I stepping on you and being jealous in the wind and moon field are really boring, and my boss, a younger than me, has already become the mayor of the town, and he is worried about the people, although he may be a little bitter and tired, but he is full of fighting spirit, so I want to follow his footsteps and start my life again. I also want to do something practical for the common people like you. ”
After listening to his son's words, Tang Jianguo was completely silent, he never thought that Liu Qingyu, who had just known him for a few hours, would make such a big change in his son, he was now full of curiosity about Liu Qingyu, the mayor of the town, and as the executive deputy mayor, he knew very well what it meant to be a 22-year-old mayor, which at least meant that Liu Qingyu was definitely a super capable person. Although Tang Jianguo felt very unhappy in his heart that his son was a deputy section-level cadre to work as a driver for Liu Qingyu, he was still happy to see that his son could change the previous style of eating, drinking and having fun, and after a little contemplation, he said in a deep voice: "You just said that Liu Qingyu came to the city to ask for help for Guanshan Town?"
Tang Zhiyong nodded and said: "Yes, Dad, my boss said that almost the entire town of Guanshan Town was flooded, many houses were washed away, crops were almost unharvested, and the people suffered heavy losses. Disaster relief must be done now. ”
After hearing this, Tang Jianguo couldn't help frowning, and muttered to himself: "How can this be? Jinglin County did not report the incident in Guanshan Town, but only said that it had rained heavily in Jinglin County, and some areas were seriously affected, and applied for financial funds to support disaster relief......
After pondering for a while, Tang Jianguo looked at Tang Zhiyong and said, "Okay, I know about this matter, as for going to Guanshan Town to be a driver, you can do it yourself, I won't interfere." ”
The next morning, before Liu Qingyu got up and took the car to the gate of the city government, the mobile phone rang, and it was an unfamiliar number.
After Liu Qingyu connected, he heard a very calm voice coming over: "It's Comrade Liu Qingyu from Guanshan Town, I'm Ding Zhaoquan, the secretary of Mayor Tang of the municipal government, Mayor Tang asked me to inform you that I will report to Mayor Tang's office at about 9 o'clock this morning." After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Liu Qingyu was stunned at that time. At this moment, Hong Sanjin's body trembled while driving the car. He really heard the voice coming out of Liu Qingyu's mobile phone just now, and he never thought that the executive vice mayor would actually ask to see Liu Qingyu by name, what is the situation? Could it be that Liu Qingyu has Mayor Tang as a backer in Liu Qingyu City? If this is the case, then it is understandable that Liu Qingyu is so strong in Guanshan Town. It seems that he will have to follow Liu Qingyu closely in the future. At this moment, Hong Sanjin's determination to follow Liu Qingyu is stronger. In fact, at first, he followed Liu Qingyu just because he was worried that Liu Qingyu would take him down, but later saw that Liu Qingyu was very strong in the face of Shi Zhenqiang, so he definitely followed Liu Qingyu to try it first, if Liu Qingyu couldn't play Shi Zhenqiang, then he would continue to go to Shi Zhenqiang, and then he would say that he was going undercover on Liu Qingyu's side. His little abacus is crackling.
Liu Qingyu was also a little stunned at the moment. He didn't expect the executive mayor's secretary to call him personally, which made him a little excited and a little puzzled. Because according to common sense, with his own rank and qualifications, let alone the executive deputy mayor, even the executive deputy county magistrate of Jinglin County may not know Lu Dao himself, at this time, Liu Qingyu suddenly remembered that the executive deputy mayor's surname was Tang, and he said secretly: "Could it be that there is any connection between this executive deputy mayor and the apprentice brother Tang Zhiyong that he took last night? Or how would he know that Lu Dao was in Cangshan City, and let him go to his office at 9 o'clock to report his work?"
Thinking of this, he recognized the idea more and more.
At 8:55, Liu Qingyu appeared on time in the office of Secretary Tang Jianguo, executive vice mayor. Tang Jianguo's secretary Ding Zhaoquan and Liu Qingyu greeted each other and said with a smile: "Mayor Tang is waiting for you inside, come in with me." With that, Ding Zhaoquan took Liu Qingyu directly into Tang Jianguo's office.
Seeing Liu Qingyu and them walking in, Ding Zhaoquan said, "Mayor, Comrade Liu Qingyu has arrived." ”
Tang Jianguo raised his head and looked at Liu Qingyu with a smile and said, "Comrade Liu Qingyu, you have a meeting on the sofa first, and I will have a good chat with you after approving these documents." ”
Liu Qingyu sat on the sofa very regularly, with his legs together, his waist straight, and waited silently. Ding Zhaoquan poured Liu Qingyu a cup of tea and then went out.
The room suddenly fell silent, only the rustle of Tang Jianguo's review of documents echoed in the office.
Although Tang Jianguo was reviewing the documents, the afterglow of his eyes also glanced at Liu Qingyu's body from time to time, and he found that Liu Qingyu was very upright both in his sitting posture and mentality, and ten minutes passed, Tang Jianguo found that Liu Qingyu did not move in the whole process, which made him have a little more good impression of Liu Qingyu. Just from the perspective of sitting posture and mentality, Liu Qingyu has been stronger than many old fritters in officialdom.
After reviewing the documents, Tang Jianguo walked out from behind the chair, walked opposite Liu Qingyu, and said with a smile: "Xiaoliu, I heard Tang Zhiyong say last night that there was a flood in your Guanshan Town, but the disaster relief funds in all aspects have not been in place, what is going on?"
When Liu Qingyu heard Tang Jianguo say this, he was already completely sure that Tang Jianguo was his cheap little brother Tang Zhiyong's old son, but even so, Liu Qingyu did not have any presumptuous intentions, and very seriously told Tang Jianguo about the disaster that happened in Guanshan Town and the fact that he went to the county to apply for disaster relief funds, and the county magistrate said that there was no money in the finances, and said: " Mayor Tang, what I said is true and reliable, as for why the city still does not know what to do, I don't know this point, because our town has already responded to the county in detail about the disaster. With that, Liu Qingyu handed the relevant documents that he had already prepared to Tang Jianguo.
Liu Qingyu didn't have much, but the meaning was clearly told to Tang Jianguo. That is, the problem must be in the county, and the county must not report it to the city. As for what to do, Liu Qingyu didn't say. He believes that the city leaders must have their own judgments.
