Liu Qingyan asked: "Why are you laughing?"

Chu Tianshu said with a smile: "I just think this rule is a bit funny. If one day Secretary Nan suddenly goes to Xinglin Township, Nanling County for inspection, and has a meal by the way, the township party committee secretary Zheng Youtian wants to toast Secretary Nan,

How many drinks do I need to drink first?"

Chu Tianshu said, counting from the provincial and ministerial level to the department level with his fingers, making a "very six plus one" gesture, and said: "I guess Secretary Nan doesn't need to drink, Zheng Youtian and the others will all be admitted to the hospital.

"

Liu Qingyan said: "Don't tell me, if Secretary Nan really comes to Xinglin Township, Zheng Youtian will really dare to drink. Fu Damu said that wine is a matter of character and officialdom. Whoever gives Nan a drink at the wine table

Ling County is a disgrace, such cadres are absolutely unreliable and must not be used."

Chu Tianshu answered: "You mean that all the cadres in Nanling County, big and small, are risking their lives when it comes to the wine table."

"Almost!" Liu Qingyan said: "Fu Damu also has a very popular saying, he would rather fall on the road charging with a wine glass than sit in a chair waiting to die."

"Haha, all the cadres in Nanling County have been trained by Fu Damu to become death squads in the wine shop." Chu Tianshu sneered, and then said: "However, he has set the rules well."

"What's good?" Liu Qingyan asked: "There are so many of them, how much advantage do you think you can take?"

Chu Tianshu said: "I know that it is difficult for two fists to defeat four hands, and a tiger cannot fight against a pack of wolves. If they charge into the battle in a swarm, I will not be able to hold on."

Liu Qingyan sighed softly and said, "I know you still said yes."

"It's better than not having this rule at all." Seeing that the car had entered the county party committee compound, Chu Tianshu said, "In a moment, you can help invite Secretary Yang and Minister Zhou."

Liu Qingyan stopped the car in front of the North Tower and said, "What are you doing? They won't listen to you."

Chu Tianshu asked: "Why won't they listen to me?"

Liu Qingyan said: "You want to win over the allies? No way, they don't dare to offend Fu Damu in front of you."

Chu Tianshu smiled and said: "Haha, Director Liu, you are wrong. I don't want them to be my allies at the wine table. I want to talk to them about how to deal with cadres who violate discipline in meetings."

Liu Qingyan said anxiously: "There is going to be a fierce battle tonight, and you still have the heart to talk to them about these things."

"These things are more important than drinking." Chu Tianshu said nonchalantly: "Anyway, what is supposed to come will come sooner or later. Take one step at a time, and there will be a road to the mountain. A living person cannot suffocate to death!"

Liu Qingyan said: "I didn't expect you to be so arrogant, you don't even look like a secretary."

"There is no article in the party constitution that stipulates that the secretary cannot be a bit arrogant. The county magistrate can gang fight with me, so why can't I still be arrogant?" Chu Tianshu laughed at himself, opened the door and got out of the car.

When they arrived at the office, they had just finished making tea when Yang Fugui and Zhou Yuning came in with notebooks.

Chu Tianshu knew that Zhou Yuning was cautious, so he did not embarrass him and said bluntly: "Minister Zhou, Zheng Youtian was absent from the cadre meeting without any reason. Huo Qiming, Peng Baoluan and others were late for the meeting. We cannot let it go unchecked. You can draft a handling opinion.

It will be discussed at the Standing Committee tomorrow. Secretary Yang, what do you think?"

"I think it's necessary." Yang Fugui said: "The notice of the meeting said that latecomers who are absent without excuse will be dealt with seriously. It's time to seriously arrest them."

Zhou Yuning recorded Chu Tianshu's instructions and asked tentatively: "Secretary Chu, Secretary Yang, do you want to talk to the county magistrate first?"

Chu Tianshu said: "County Magistrate Damu just told me that he would help me catch the wind and wash away the dust in the evening. I will say hello to him later when I have time."

"Then..." Zhou Yuning thought to himself, when he got to the wine table, he would have to make you dizzy, so there would be no chance to say hello. Thinking of this, he asked again: "What are the opinions of the two secretaries?"

Zhou Yuning didn't dare to look at Chu Tianshu, so he went to see Yang Fugui first.

Yang Fugui remained silent and did not meet Zhou Yuning's gaze.

Zheng Youtian and Huo Qiming are Fu Damu and Geng Zhongtian's people, and they don't want to do such offending things.

Chu Tianshu straightened his face and said: "Comrade Yu Ning, you are the head of the organization, and cadre management is your job. You don't care what our opinions are. You first draft a preliminary opinion based on the relevant regulations on cadre management. When you get to the meeting tomorrow,

Let’s discuss it together and express our opinions.”

Seeing that Chu Tianshu was unhappy, Zhou Yuning did not dare to ask any more questions, so he had to agree and leave with his notebook in his arms.

Yang Fugui deliberately hesitated for a while, and after Zhou Yuning left, he said: "Secretary Chu, the issue of cadre style should be addressed from small things. I agree with your serious attitude just now. You can't wait for the leader's opinion on big and small matters.

If the organizational department doesn’t care about cadres, then what else should the organizational department do?”

Chu Tianshu said: "Logically speaking, Comrade Yu Ning is older than me, so I should be more polite. However, he is not bold enough in his work, so I have to act with a straight face."

"I think it is necessary." Yang Fugui said dissatisfiedly: "Subordinates obey their superiors. This is an organizational principle. You cannot rely on your elders just because you are older and more qualified, and shirk all the responsibilities you should bear."

Chu Tianshu smiled and said: "Secretary Yang, you are also a veteran party worker. I think we can be consistent on issues of principle."

"That's right, that's right." Yang Fugui realized that it was not easy to express his position if we continued talking like this, so he smiled awkwardly, quickly changed the subject, and lowered his voice and said: "Xiao Chu, please take it easy tonight."

Chu Tianshu said: "Thank you for your concern, brother."

After seeing Yang Fugui off, Chu Tianshu reviewed a few documents, and it was time to get off work.

Liu Qingyan drove Chu Tianshu back to the guest house.

After getting off the car and entering the door, Tian Keming was sitting in the hall puffing away smoke. When he saw Chu Tianshu coming in, he hurriedly threw away his cigarette, greeted him with a smile, and said, "Secretary Chu, you are here. All the leaders are waiting for you."

Tian Keming led the way up to the third floor.

Entering the VIP private room, there was no one there, but a small private room diagonally opposite was noisy, with laughter and curses breaking out from time to time.

Chu Tianshu frowned.

Tian Keming hurriedly explained: "The leaders are busy and are doing the 'economic half-hour' over there. Secretary Chu, do you want to go and see the excitement?"

Chu Tianshu walked towards the small private room opposite with a calm expression and asked: "What is the economic half hour?"

Tian Keming was slightly surprised and said: "Secretary Chu doesn't know? Before the banquet begins, it takes about half an hour to serve food and wait for people. The leaders can't stop, engaging in a few landlord fights, staring and so on, with a little bit of luck.

It's called the 'Economic Half Hour.'"

Chu Tianshu smiled indifferently, and followed Tian Keming into the small private room opposite. Amid the smoke, he could see a stack of colorful banknotes piled in the middle of the table. The face values ​​were all one hundred and fifty, and there were about thousands.

Yuan.

Public Security Bureau Chief Tao Yuming was holding a deck of playing cards in his hand. Organization Minister Zhou Yuning, Deputy County Magistrate Bai Cunli, Li Taihe, and Chi Ruifeng were gathered around the table. They were all focused on the game. No one was paying attention.

Who comes in.

Executive Deputy County Magistrate Geng Zhongtian, Deputy Secretary Yang Fugui and Propaganda Minister Mao Xingdong did not place any bets and stood aside with their hands behind their backs to watch the excitement. They saw Chu Tianshu coming in and were about to say hello when Chu Tianshu waved his hand to keep them quiet.

Bai Cunli, who was sitting opposite the door, put his hand on the pile of cards, grinned, slowly picked up a card, then threw it hard on the card table, and laughed: "Haha, I made the right bet again.

"After saying that, he folded his arms and put all the money on the table in front of himself.

Chu Tianshu glanced at it and saw that they were playing a gambling game called "Fake Golden Flower". The bet was on psychology and capital. The starting bet was ten yuan, and the winning or losing often amounted to several thousand yuan. People like them who were fifty yuan

If you play for half an hour, you can lose tens of thousands if you are not lucky. No wonder it is called "Economic Half Hour".

Could it be that these guys are rich monks in a poor temple?

Tao Yuming was the big loser. He smoked a cigarette and cursed: "Old Bai, you bitch, you are so lucky today. To be honest, which woman's butt did you touch last night?"

Several other people probably also lost money and started making noises along with Tao Yuming.

Bai Cunli won the money and didn't care about Tao Yuming's scolding at all. While shuffling the cards, he smiled wildly and said: "Old Tao, Youdao is frustrated in the casino and proud in love. If you lose more, maybe you can get it tonight."

Got your sister-in-law’s ass.”

Liu Qingyan followed Chu Tianshu. When she heard Bai Cunli's words, she suddenly changed her color. She rushed forward and snatched the cards from his hand, threw them on the table hard, her almond-shaped eyes widened, and cursed: "Bai Cunli, you old man"

Why can’t ivory come out of a dog’s mouth?”

Everyone was stunned.

Tao Yuming looked up at Liu Qingyan and said, "Hey, Qingyan, Lao Bai just made a joke and you took it seriously. Okay, okay, stop making trouble, shuffle the cards, keep going." After that,

He took out a red ticket, slapped it in the middle of the table, and then asked others to place their bets.

Tian Keming took a few steps forward and said, "Dear leaders, stop playing around, Secretary Chu is here."

Only then did Bai Cunli and others come to their senses from the gambling game. They hurriedly grabbed the banknotes in front of them and stuffed them into their pockets. They all stood up and greeted Chu Tianshu.

Tao Yuming was the last one to get up and asked with a playful smile: "Secretary Chu, it's still early, can you touch a few?"

Chu Tianshu said coldly: "Director Tao, you are playing too much."

Tao Yuming said: "Then you don't want to play anymore. Lao Tian, ​​you go to drink tea with Secretary Chu, and we will play a few more games. I don't believe it. I can't deal with you today."

Bai Cunli said: "Forget it, Secretary Chu is here, let's play another day."

Tao Yuming looked unhappy and said: "Old Bai, you are so unworthy. When you win money, you only think about preserving the fruits of the province. Isn't the county magistrate not here yet? Waiting is not just waiting.

Come, come, come, sit down, everyone, sit down, and play a few more games, the county magistrate will stop playing when he arrives."

With this posture and tone, Tao Yuming only had Fu Damu in his eyes, and did not pay attention to Chu Tianshu, the secretary at all.

Bai Cunli and others looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
