The official way of rebirth

Chapter 40: Taking Chestnuts from the Fire (Part 2)

Sister Lan was startled, and instinctively pushed the red envelope away, frowning and saying, "What are you doing?"

Xiaoyun's mother couldn't help but complain that she was too hasty and tried to smooth things over: "Sister, ignore him. He thinks everyone is as philistine as him."

Smiling, he said in Sister Lan's ear: "Come to my store tomorrow and we two sisters will have a good chat." Then he said, "I ask you to speak kindly in front of Secretary Tang about our affairs as a couple."

Sister Lan looked at Xiaoyun's mother's meaningful smile before she left, her face changed, and she entered the room with a heavy heart.

Tang Yi sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette, thinking about Director Zhou. Secretary Yao certainly knew why he dropped the title of Director of the County Party Committee Office, but Tang Yi couldn't understand that he was so capable.

Are you sure you can promote your own people to this position?

County Magistrate Li and Tang Yi also communicated on this issue when they were drinking tonight. County Magistrate Li also has his own candidates and hopes to get Tang Yi's support. Last night, Minister Jiao also communicated with Tang Yi in a subtle way.

What he meant was that his old classmates had also approached him. Minister Jiao also urgently needed to establish his influence on the county party committee through some heavyweight appointments. What made Tang Yi even more troubled was that Chen Dahe also found him. It is said that he was the county party committee director Guo

The deputy director found him. Chen Dahe had a good relationship with Director Guo, so he came to help Director Guo smooth things over.

The position of director of the County Party Committee Office has attracted the covetous attention of many people. If it is not handled properly, the loose alliance just formed by Tang Yi and County Magistrate Li will fall apart. Tang Yi sighed, in the complicated entanglement of interests, it is too difficult to be comprehensive.

.

Thinking of Teacher Lin's job transfer again, he communicated with Secretary Yan. Although he knew that Secretary Yan had a good relationship with Lao Yao, he should still give himself face for this matter. Who knew that Secretary Yan would be very happy to agree?

He agreed, but complained to Tang Yi again. It turned out that the municipal party committee was planning to organize a delegation to visit the United States recently. Each county has a quota, and the convention is to give it to a deputy secretary. Lao Yan has been to several socialist countries such as North Korea.

, had never seen the colorful world of a capitalist country, so he was extremely enthusiastic about this quota. Who knew that Secretary Tao would not agree. It seemed that he was planning to take his son abroad for a tour, and Secretary Yan just hoped that Tang Yi could help him.

Get this quota.

This is another difficult task, and Lao Tao is ready to do it by himself. Can he still pull out the teeth? Ask him to change his mind? Lao Yan thinks too highly of himself.

When he was in trouble, Sister Lan sat next to him and said hesitantly: "Secretary Tang, let me tell you something."

Tang Yi smiled and said: "Isn't it to help Director Zhou make excuses?"

It's rare for Secretary Tang to joke with him. Sister Lan smiled charmingly: "Hey. Do you listen to what I say?"

Tang Yi smiled and picked up the tea cup.

Sister Lan sighed and said, "Secretary Tang, I want to move out."

Tang Yi was stunned for a moment and asked: "What? Don't you like the job of nanny?"

Sister Lan said hurriedly: "No, no, I just want to move out with Bao'er. I will continue to do the nanny job, and I guarantee that I won't miss Secretary Tang's business." She was really afraid that Tang Yi would not use her.

.

Tang Yi nodded slightly and asked: "Is there a place?" He had already vaguely guessed why Sister Lan wanted to move out, and of course he would not force Sister Lan to stay.

Sister Lan said: "The house at the west gate on the first floor is for rent. I want to rent it." Sister Lan had only arrived at Secretary Tang's house for a few days, but she had already received several groups of guests. She was already feeling a little uncomfortable. She was an orphan and a widowed mother.

What's the deal with living here? What will people talk about you when you go back? After seeing the small advertisement for the rental house downstairs the day before yesterday, you have already thought about moving out. This time I saw the ambiguity in Xiaoyun's mother's eyes again,

Sister Lan made up her mind

It doesn't matter what others say about her, and Sister Lan doesn't care about it, but she can't let Bao'er feel wronged because of this, and let Bao'er's classmates poke her in the spine and scold her for having a bad-shoes mother.

After thinking about it, Sister Lan made up her mind. The rent downstairs was one thousand and two thousand yuan a year. After thinking about it, Sister Lan calculated it. It was easy to secretly pay one hundred yuan a month for the grocery shopping money given by Secretary Tang. Her salary was still the same.

Can save.

Tang Yi nodded and said, "Well, you can decide for yourself. I'll pay for the rent."

Sister Lan was overjoyed and said with a sweet smile: "Thank you, Secretary Tang."

In the next few days, the atmosphere in the county party committee offices was strange. The appointment of the director of the county party committee office affected almost everyone's heart. Not only the standing committee members who were concerned about themselves, but also the heads of various departments were watching.

Everyone knows that this appointment is likely to be the second confrontation between Secretary Yao and Secretary Tang Li County. The outcome of this contest will directly affect the future political situation in Yanshan.

Tang Yi received Minister Jiao and Deputy Director Liu of the National People's Congress in the office. At that time, the power of the National People's Congress was far less than that of ten years later. The director of the National People's Congress was mostly held by the top leader of the party committee, which also ensured the authority of the top leader. As for Director Liu, the deputy director, basically

It's a decoration.

Tang Yi listened to the two people talking calmly, and finally gave Director Liu four words: "Do your best." He didn't know whether he meant that Tang Yi would do his best, or he asked Director Liu to do his best at work. In short,

Director Liu was very happy after hearing this and left happily, but Minister Jiao smiled bitterly. He could see that Tang Yi was not very concerned about this matter. He also received the news that County Magistrate Li was planning to promote the deputy director of the Organization Department.

Minister, Deputy Minister Ma, who had been competing with him at work, took this position. Minister Jiao was wondering, could it be that Secretary Tang and County Magistrate Li were on the same side? He actually wanted to promote his opponent regardless of his own feelings?

Seeing the disappointment on Minister Jiao's face, Tang Yi smiled and said: "There are some things that you can't rush, just let nature take its course."

After Minister Jiao left, Tang Yi frowned. Although Minister Jiao did not complain, his "reservation" expression was written on his face. Do you support County Magistrate Li or not? Tang Yi was a little hard to make a decision.

If he supports him, then Minister Jiao will definitely alienate himself. Speaking of it, the most reliable person among the Standing Committee is Minister Jiao, and supporting County Magistrate Li will only make County Magistrate Li gradually grow bigger in the party committee. If he does not support Li

The fragile alliance that the county magistrate has just formed will soon fall apart. The balance of checks and balances that he has managed to maintain with Secretary Tao will be broken.

Somewhat irritated, he stood up and opened the office window. Lao Yao happened to pass by his office and looked at Lao Yao with a smug sneer on his face. Tang Yi's heart sank. Why is he so confident? Has he already got enough?

number of votes?

In fact, if Secretary Tao, Tang Yi, and Minister Jiao all agree on personnel appointments, there is no need to discuss them at the Standing Committee. At most, they can go through the motions and make an announcement at the regular monthly Standing Committee meeting. But everyone knows that,

Tang Yi and Secretary Tao will definitely not be able to agree on the appointment of the director of the county party committee this time. In the end, it will most likely have to go through organizational procedures. In the end, there will still be a vote.

Tang Yi sat back on the long sofa and took a few sips of the cold tea, which was quite bitter.

Secretary Xiao Wang came in with a kettle of hot water. He picked up the kettle on the table and found it was empty. I was stunned. Secretary Tang drank tea really badly.

Before leaving, Xiao Wang smiled and said casually: "Secretary Yao just entered Minister Jiao's office."

Tang Yi raised his head and gave him a meaningful look. He smiled and said: "Eyes can see six directions, ears can listen to all directions. Good." Xiao Wang seemed to have received some kind of praise, and walked out happily.

Tang Yi became more and more irritable. He seemed to have suddenly fallen into a dilemma. The more he struggled, the more confused he became. No matter what the next step, he seemed to lose something.

Old fox! Tang Yi cursed in his heart, picked up the teapot and prepared to make another cup of tea. His eyes suddenly stared at the lid of the teapot. It was a figure painting, "Han Xin was humiliated under the crotch", and the teapot was an old man.

The original intention of giving it away was to warn Tang Yi that a small impatience could lead to a big plan. When Tang Yi saw Han Xin, he suddenly had an idea, and then cold sweat broke out on his back. Old Yao may not have wanted to add one of his own to the Standing Committee, maybe he

The real intention is to cause chaos in the formation of his own party, and even turn his own people into enemies, just like when the Han army defeated the Chu army, they built plank roads openly and secretly attacked Chencang.

Think about it, no matter how you choose, it will definitely hurt your alliance, and you will definitely be separated from some allies, and maybe the old fox is trying to get both sides at this moment, and maybe he will get enough votes in the end to pass

He will nominate others to re-establish his prestige, but his own side will become strange bedfellows with the convening of this Standing Committee, and eventually fall apart.

Tang Yi sighed and leaned on the sofa, sorting out the messy thoughts and thinking about the people and things these days. Until he got off work, he still couldn't think of a way to get the best of both worlds. He even met Secretary Yao at the door of the county party committee compound and saw

The sneer on his face made Tang Yi feel depressed again. Could it be that he was really trapped to death by this old fox? Back home, Sister Lan was happily humming a ditty and listening to music. Look at her tight little red pants.

, a pair of snow-white feet stepped on the coffee table and trembled with the music, so beautiful that they seemed to be stumbling,

She didn't hear Tang Yi's footsteps at all. It wasn't until Tang Yi sat down on the sofa that Sister Lan was startled. She hurriedly put on her slippers, ran over and turned off the music, and came back and asked Tang Yi: "What should we have for dinner?"

Tang Yi looked at her snow-white sweater and frowned: "I really don't know how to match clothes." In fact, the red pants and white sweater are a bit out of place, but Sister Lan has always been dressed like a handsome young daughter-in-law, and her current dress is quite different.

Feng Liu, it's just that Tang Yi is a little annoyed now, and it's a little unpleasant to see things.

Sister Lan was not angry, and said with a sweet smile: "Hey, do you think I don't look good in this outfit? I thought you always thought I was stupid."

Then he said: "I chose this at Director Zhou's wife's store. I paid for it and got a 10% discount."

Tang Yi was startled and asked: "Who are you talking about?"

Sister Lan blinked her charming big eyes and said, "Director Zhou, my dear, don't you remember? I just came here a few days ago."

Tang Yi was stunned for a long time, then suddenly laughed, stood up suddenly, and said with a smile: "Director Zhou? Why didn't I think of him? Okay, okay, okay, you old fox secretly tricked Chen Cang, wouldn't I, Tang Yi, do the same?"

"I walked back and forth excitedly for a few steps. Looking at Sister Lan's pretty face, I felt it was particularly cute. Suddenly I stretched out my hand and twisted her face, and said with a smile: "I will mark your credit this time!" Sister Lan!

She screamed and took a few steps back in fright, only to see that Tang Yi had already picked up the phone. Sister Lan touched her face, thinking she was dreaming. She pinched it hard a few times and it hurt. Then she was convinced that it was not a dream.

Secretary Tang really twisted his face. Looking at Tang Yi again, the smile on the dialer's face had slowly dissipated and returned to his usual calm expression. He knew that Secretary Tang was temporarily excited, but why

You want to tease me? You don't really like me! Sister Lan felt that she was at a disadvantage and secretly glared at Tang Yi a few times. She didn't dare to open her mouth to be fair. She had to mutter in her heart to prepare the meal.

Tang Yi dialed Director Zhou's phone number. Hearing Tang Yi's voice, Director Zhou was trembling a little. Tang Yi chatted with him for a few words about irrelevant work, and finally said casually: "Director Zhou, you need to talk to Tao

Secretary, please communicate more. Even if you are responsible for the government, you still have to listen to the opinions of the party committee."

Putting down the phone, Tang Yi slowly closed his eyes. The words were on point. It was up to him whether Director Zhou understood or not.

At the dinner table, Sister Lan touched her face from time to time, trying to remind Tang Yi something. But Tang Yi said, "Sister Lan, don't teach the children bad things. Touching your face at the dinner table is not a good habit." She was so angry that she almost choked.

, but seeing that Tang Yi was criticizing him seriously, he had no choice but to agree obediently, and like Bao'er, he picked up his rice bowl and ate like a baby.

The day before the Standing Committee meeting was about to be held, Tang Yi came to Secretary Tao's office for a routine meeting. The two talked about recent work, and finally of course they talked about the appointment of the director of the County Party Committee Office. Secretary Tao knew about this personnel matter.

It was so important that Tang Yi categorically disagreed with his opinion, but he still said it in a routine manner: "Secretary Tang, I have a few suitable candidates, do you want to hear them?"

Tang Yi's reaction was beyond Secretary Tao's expectation, "Sure, I'm scratching my head too. The County Party Committee Office is a very important department. There are many comrades who are qualified and qualified to hold this position this time. It's really hard to choose.

." He said and sat down on the sofa with some annoyance.

Secretary Tao secretly laughed in his heart, knowing that Tang Yi and the others must have fought hard by themselves, causing him a lot of headaches.

He was originally happy to see Tang Yi's jokes, but seeing Tang Yi's preoccupied look, he felt moved and said casually: "Secretary Tang, sometimes, if you want to gain something, you have to learn to give up first."

Tang Yi seemed stunned for a moment, and then seemed to be thinking about Secretary Tao's words, and became a little fascinated.

After a while, Tang Yi's eyes lit up and he seemed to have figured it out. He smiled and said to Secretary Tao, "Thank you, Secretary Tao, for your guidance. It made me enlightened."

Secretary Tao smiled and said: "Then let me talk about these candidates?" He nodded to Tang Yi, which seemed to be a kind reminder to Tang Yi that he did not have to seize the personnel power this time.

If you don't let go, you will be afraid that the gain will outweigh the loss. In fact, Lao Tao became selfish when he saw that Tang Yi was not decisive.

Originally, Secretary Tao promised Lao Yao that someone who supported him would take the position of director of the County Party Committee Office no matter what. Even if the Standing Committee did not get a result he was satisfied with, he would not hesitate to burn the boat and use the power of the Party Committee Secretary to veto this decision.

It was resolved that although the influence of the top secretary of the party committee at that time might be weakened,

situation, but the top leader is the top leader. If he insists on passing a motion, even if most people have reservations, the resolution will still be passed. However, over time, the prestige of the top leader will be gone. In the superior department,

You will also get a very bad impression during the assessment, and your career will probably come to an end.

Secretary Tao was originally determined to support Lao Yao, but seeing that Tang Yi seemed to be in a dilemma, he became selfish. The county party committee office was a heavyweight department. It was rare that Lao Yao was willing to take the initiative to put down this stall. Why didn't Secretary Tao not want to take over?

Already? It was just that he supported Lao Yao at first with the attitude of sitting on the mountain and watching the fight between tigers. But if Tang Yi had other ideas, he would not be polite to Lao Yao.

Secretary Tao mentioned that the first candidate was the person recommended by Secretary Yao. Tang Yi shook his head as expected. Secretary Tao smiled and said, "Does Secretary Tang have any suitable candidates?"

Tang Yidao: "Besides Director Chen, doesn't Secretary Tao have a more suitable candidate?"

Secretary Tao named another person. This was someone close to Secretary Tao. But Tang Yi shook his head again and said, "His qualifications are not enough, right?"

Secretary Tao also knew that the person he proposed was really difficult to convince the crowd. If Tang Yi agreed, he could still force his way through. If Tang Yi didn't agree, he wouldn't have to go all the way.

After thinking for a while, he said: "There is a best candidate in my mind. You should know Director Zhou from the government office. What do you think of this person?"

Director Zhou visited Secretary Tao a few days ago, and the couple talked well, which was quite appreciated by Secretary Tao. However, because Secretary Tao had already accepted Lao Yao, his attitude towards Director Zhou was vague and pretending to be confused.

However, he has some concerns. If Director Zhou continues to work with him, he should be promoted in a few days. He can't let his comrades feel cold. He doesn't want the county committee office in front of him to promote his own people at the first glance. There are no suitable candidates.

Secretary Tao actually thought of him.

Tang Yi smiled inwardly, put on a thoughtful expression on his face, and finally nodded: "I agree with Secretary Tao's opinion."

Secretary Tao was overjoyed and said with a smile: "That's good. I'll make an announcement at tomorrow's Standing Committee meeting." As for Lao Yao, Secretary Tao had already thought of his words. Of course, it was the result of a compromise with County Magistrate Tang Yi and Li. As for Lao Yao,

Yao's dissatisfaction with Secretary Tao could only slowly subside.

Before Tang Yi left, he asked: "Secretary Tao, is it time to decide whether Secretary Yan will go to the United States for inspection?"

Secretary Tao was stunned for a moment, then realized that this was Tang Yi's exchange for supporting him. He thought about it and nodded.

Tang Yi returned to his office and smiled knowingly. Do you have to learn to give up if you want to gain something? I have understood this truth long ago, and I understand it more thoroughly than you, Lao Tao.

Picked up the phone and dialed Director Zhou's number, gave Director Zhou a few vague words of encouragement, and then hung up the phone. Director Zhou was a little excited after hanging up the phone. Although Secretary Tang didn't say it clearly, Director Zhou could feel it.

It seems that the position of director of the County Party Committee Office has been decided, and it should be him.

Thinking of Secretary Tao's vague appearance when he visited Secretary Tao's door that day, Director Zhou thought there was no hope. Unexpectedly, Secretary Tang was Gao, and somehow he managed to put the director's hat on his head.

Although Director Zhou was excited, he knew that the matter would not be finalized until the Standing Committee meeting tomorrow, so he tried his best to suppress his excitement and immersed himself in work. However, when writing the manuscript, his pen occasionally scratched the manuscript paper, causing the clerks reporting work next to him to be confused.

baffling.

After Tang Yi hung up Director Zhou, he picked up the phone and called County Magistrate Li and Director Jiao respectively. County Magistrate Li started to hear that Tang Yi had agreed to Secretary Tao's choice, and he was indeed a little angry, but he heard that the candidate was not

After Secretary Yao's people, and Secretary Tao insisted on making the decision, County Magistrate Li felt a little relieved. Remembering that this time Lao Yao delegated power to himself, he was able to steal the chicken but not lose the rice, so he just smiled at the failure of his candidate.

Minister Jiao was even more moved, thinking that Tang Yi did not hesitate to offend County Magistrate Li for him, and deeply regretted his earlier complaints.

Tang Yi made a cup of hot tea at this time and took a sip. It was so fragrant.
