In the evening, the township government held a welcome banquet in the canteen to welcome Meng Jinxing, deputy director of the Party and Government Office.

He Qifeng and Jiang Qingchun both finished the meal, Liang Jingzong only arrived, and Meng Jinxing got drunk under the envious and jealous eyes of a group of staff.

He woke up thirsty in the early morning and couldn't find any water to drink, so he simply dug out the liquor he brought from home and drank another half a tael. Not only did the burning sensation in his stomach immediately lessen, but he also felt more energetic.

Tossing and turning and unable to fall asleep, he simply lay on the bed and thought about the two questions his father gave him.

As a political loser, Meng Qingping recommended "Enemy Precepts" to his son, and its meaning is actually self-evident.

After Meng Jinxing thought about it for a moment, he could understand that his father wanted him to remember that in the officialdom, an official without opponents lacks a mirror for self-reflection; without struggle, he loses the soil for training and growth; without challenges, it is difficult to become strong.

…

As for the issue of cronyism, he understood why his father raised it, but he still couldn't agree with it, and he didn't understand how it was related to his current work.

It was getting whiter in the east, so he simply got up and went outside to exercise.

The collective dormitory in Sangyu Township is just behind the administrative building. It is a small two-story wooden building. Because most of the cadres are locals, many of the dormitories are empty and have become a place for some leaders to take a nap. Meng Jinxing is the owner of this small building.

One of the only official residents of the building.

Just as Meng Jinxing got ready, He Qifeng also walked out.

"Good morning, Secretary He!" he greeted proactively.

"Good morning, Xiao Meng." He Qifeng turned around and smiled, "It's rare for young people to practice Tai Chi!"

"Hey, I learned it from our class teacher when I was in junior high school, and I have been using it to keep fit ever since."

"You have been practicing for many years." He Qifeng asked thoughtfully, "Have you ever experienced the essence of Tai Chi?"

"Essential meaning?" Meng Jinxing really hadn't thought about it. He had been practicing according to the teacher's instructions without any further understanding.

"Why don't you let me talk and see if it helps?" He Qifeng asked kindly.

"Secretary's advice, I'm asking for it!" He quickly stopped and listened attentively.

He Qifeng said, "In my opinion, what Tai Chi is best at is to use the feminine external style to dodge and use force to hide the inner strength under the outer style. Once you avoid the attack, you can immediately use the inner strength to outward and become passive."

In order to take the initiative and gain the upper hand. I hope my idea will be helpful to you. You should practice more frequently after going to Guanshan Village!"

Just as Meng Jinxing nodded twice, He Qifeng had already returned to his dormitory and did not come out for a long time.

The Secretary taught him the essence of Tai Chi early in the morning. Meng Jinxing felt that it had profound meaning no matter how he thought about it, but he couldn't figure out the truth for a while, so he had to swallow it and memorize He Qifeng's words, waiting for the day to come.

A comprehensive understanding.

Before going to work, Meng Jinxing left his luggage in the reception room and returned to the office to see Liu Mingxue to see if he had any other instructions. Liu Mingxue said before he could say anything, "Liang Xiang wants to see you!"

Meng Jinxing hurried to the township chief's office and was stunned as soon as he entered the door.

The walls of Liang Jingzong's office are covered with wallpaper. A huge crystal lamp hangs in the middle of the low-hanging ceiling. The office furniture is made of solid wood. The leather boss chair behind the luxurious boss's desk has been polished as if it was new. The level of luxury is very high.

Nothing compares to the secretary's office.

"Sit." Liang Jingzong had a cigarette in his mouth and pointed his brown index finger at the chair opposite him.

Meng Jinxing said hello and sat down upright.

Liang Jingzong said, "I came to you to cheer you up! Guanshan Village plays a very important role in our Sangyu Township. It is also the first village to pilot the election of village chief. Something happened to the new village chief just after he took office. The county leaders

We all attach great importance to it. When you go over this time, you must not only promptly and properly handle the issue of Xiaofengshan’s contracting rights, but also find out the cause of death of the former village chief Liang Xiaoshan as soon as possible, and watch the clear sky in the mountain village!"

Meng Jinxing was secretly surprised.

After arriving at Sangyu, two official hats, one virtual and one real, were suddenly dropped on him. He was so excited that he ignored the true meaning of "accepting orders in critical situations". In vain, he heard that a human life was involved, and he realized that the official hats were heavy and heavy.

portion size.

"Why, no confidence?" Liang Jingzong was very dissatisfied with Meng Jinxing's failure to express his position immediately, "You are a top student from Yanda sent to us by the provincial party committee. If you can't even solve the most basic problems at the grassroots level..."

Liang Jingzong only spoke half of his words before looking at Meng Jinxing with a profound look.

"Don't worry, head of the township, I will definitely live up to the trust of the organization and leaders and do my best to do my job well!" Meng Jinxing knew that he had no way out and had no plans to retreat.

What others call "danger" may not be an opportunity for him.

"Well, feel free to call me and report to me if anything happens."

Liang Jingzong waved his hand and ended the short conversation. He wanted to see how tall this top student was and whether he could understand the key points of the work revealed in his brief conversation, so as to confirm whether this person could be created.

material?

Meng Jinxing withdrew with interest.

There is only a wall between the Party and Government Office and the township chief's office. At this moment, everyone has arrived and they are chattering about the newly appointed deputy director.

"I thought that the top students from Yan'an University must be highly short-sighted, pale, and have no flesh on their face!" A somewhat delicate female voice said, "I didn't expect that he looks quite impressive..."

"Look at your potential!" A sinister voice sounded, "After graduating from Yan University, what's great about being handsome? When he gets to the land of Sangyu, even if he is a flying dragon, he has to lie down!"

"That's right, that's right!" A greasy-toned male voice immediately complimented, "With Director Liu and Brother Chang in the Party and Government Office, it's not the right time for a foreigner named Meng to speak."

"The city wall was turned upside down and a blockhouse was added." Another female voice said coldly.

"Jiang Qinfang, labor and management are telling you today that in Sangyu, we, the Liang family, have the final say!" Liang Chang said a little fiercely, "You..."

He suddenly turned around and saw Meng Jinxing at the door, and immediately glared at Meng Jinxing angrily, as if it was Meng Jinxing who had just bumped into him.

Liu Mingxue was sitting in the corner by the window. At this time, he raised his head and said: "Qinfang, please accompany Deputy Director Meng to Guanshan. You will cooperate there before the official village chief is elected in Guanshan."

"Why me?" Jiang Qinfang stood up unhappily.

"Then let me go!" The soft female voice sounded again, and Meng Jinxing remembered that the girl's eyes kept turning to him last night.

"Liu Aijiao, why are you joining in the fun!" Liang Chang glanced sideways at Liu Aijiao.

"I want you to take care of it!" Liu Aijiao did not show weakness.

"What a noise!" Liu Mingxue finally frowned dissatisfied, "Shifeng, you drive Deputy Director Meng and Qin Fang down."

The short, fat young man sitting at the door, holding the phone and whispering non-stop, reluctantly hung up the phone, stood up and said to Meng Jinxing angrily: "I'll wait for you in the car."

Meng Jinxing knew that the driver's name was Jiang Shifeng, and it was he who accompanied Jiang Qingchun to pick him up from Sangyu yesterday. During dinner in the evening, he was all over the place, and he smelled like a leader's pistachios.

He immediately nodded to Jiang Shifeng and asked Jiang Qinfang: "My luggage is in the reception room. Xiao Jiang, do you want to pick it up?"

"Her home is in Guanshan, so you can leave directly." Liu Aijiao rushed to say.

"Then let's go directly, Director."

Meng Jinxing said hello to Liu Mingxue, and walked out of the office with Jiang Qinfang. Liang Chang's cursing voice came from behind, "What the hell are college students doing? You can't even say goodbye, and you don't want to teach!"

Liu Aijiao quickly chased him out and handed Meng Jinxing a bp machine and a number, saying that it was given by Director Liu to facilitate work contact.

…

Men smoke and drink at home.

Meng Jinxing got into the car and threw a box of Liqun to Jiang Shifeng, and the two immediately became friendly.

Jiang Shifeng is very talkative.

He told Meng Jinxing that he and Jiang Qinfang were distant cousins, and their families were all in Guanshan; there were seven people in the Party and Government Office including Meng Jinxing, and the one who spoke glibly was Liang Xuejun, Liang Jingzong's full-time driver, who did not attend the orientation last night

; There is also a petition officer named Mu Tian, ​​who has been stationed there since the incident in Guanshan Village.

"Then you are Secretary He's 'secretary'?" Meng Jinxing asked Jiang Shifeng jokingly.

"I am a public servant of the people, serving the public." Jiang Shifeng said and laughed, "In our Sangyu, except for Mr. Liang, who dares to be a full-time 'secretary'?"

Meng Jinxing then said, "It seems that there are quite a few people named Jiang here. Secretary Jiang is also a relative of yours, right?"

"Enemies." Jiang Qinfang finally couldn't help but interrupt, "The Liang family thought that it was still decades ago and they had the final say in everything. They also didn't think about it, who is the executive deputy mayor of Shencheng? Who is the deputy secretary of the Changfeng County Party Committee?

Which one? Boss Liang? Huh! If I hadn’t been behind the scenes, if I hadn’t saved Secretary Zheng of the county party committee by fighting the flood back then, and if the deputy mayor Wang Shiqiu was the adopted son of the Liang family, who would really regard him as the boss now? The party leads the government, and he is in power.

The party’s deputy secretary is nothing more than a deputy secretary!”

Jiang Qinfang complained, which made Meng Jinxing secretly surprised. He didn't expect that a small clerk in the township was so knowledgeable about official levels. The most important thing was that he was brave enough to dare to criticize the mayor in front of the new deputy director.

"Our deputy mayor and county party committee secretary are also relatives of the Jiang family?" he asked.

"Uncle Youcai, deputy mayor, and uncle Decai, county committee member, are all Qinfang's biological uncles!" Jiang Shifeng looked proud, as if he was talking about his biological uncles.

No wonder.

Meng Jinxing immediately understood why Jiang Qinfang was not afraid that he would spread her words.

It seems that the Jiang family is not simple.

The two people in front of me, although they are not leaders and do not look down on the Jiang family's enemies, they understand the balance in the struggle. It is obvious that the Jiang-Liang dispute is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in Guanshan.

He suddenly understood what his father meant when he mentioned cronyism and asked about the social roots. The root cause was the patriarchal social system that had been formed in this country for thousands of years and had not completely disappeared with the development and progress of society.

What is currently troubling Sangyu Township is the common, simplest, but also the most complex clan faction issue at the grassroots level. The Jiang and Liang clans are the source of the conflict between Sangyu and Sangyu.

"Director Meng," Jiang Shifeng suddenly stopped the car and glanced at Meng Jinxing, "It looks like the situation is not good!"
Chapter completed!
