irst, but they were kind to him, and it seemed to awaken his favor towards them. Xiao Zheng also said: "Aunt, Uncle, I'll drink this first one with you, and then we'll take it slow." 。Sun Wenmin then...Xiao Zheng once again realized that Song Guoming was skilled and had his own methods. 。Song Guoming knows what the leaders want, he will do whatever it takes to get it done, and he is very efficient. 。But in comparison, Guan Wenwei considers the people and uses a relatively flexible approach to solve problems, resulting in lower efficiency than Song Guoming. 。Xiao Zheng asked himself, if he were sitting in the position of the Party Secretary and Head of the Town, what would he do if he encountered such a thorny problem today Which way would he choose

Xiao Zheng's answer was, I'm afraid neither. 。

The mining accident ended with Song Guoming's quick and decisive action, taking the lead and dominating the situation. 。The young deceased were sent to the funeral home, and the other injured were sent to the county hospital. The town organized people to be on duty and look after them. 。Town Party Committee Secretary Song Guoming asked Deputy Town Head Jin Hui to also go to the funeral home to grasp the situation. Jin Hui did not dare to disobey and had to go. 。After everyone else had left, only Town Chief Guan Wenwei and Xiao Zheng remained at the foot of the mine, facing the wind that whipped up dust from the mine's mouth. 。Finally, they also left. 。After arriving in town, Xiao Zheng returned to his office at the deputy building. At noon, he went to the canteen for lunch and didn't see Zhen Chang Guan Wenwei. 。That afternoon, the entire town government was extraordinarily quiet, as if it had just fought a battle and needed to rest and recover. 。As it neared quitting time, Xiao Zheng stood in the corridor, feeling the warmth of the setting sun and gazing at the courtyard of the government building. In his mind, he pondered the direction the Fengqi Village mine issue would take next. Would they continue mining or halt operations for rectification Suddenly, he noticed a new figure on the second-floor corridor of the main building—it was Town Mayor Guan Wenwei. Shortly after, Xiao Zheng's phone rang. He pulled it out and saw that it was Guan Wenwei calling him. 。Xiao Zheng immediately answered, saying: "Hello, Town Mayor." 。Guan Wenwei said: "Let's take my car after work." 。Xiao Zheng lives in the town, it only takes him ten minutes to walk to the dormitory, he doesn't need to take a car at all. 。Guan Wenwei let him take a car, what did this mean "Guan Town Mayor, where are we going" Guan Wenwei said: "You'll know soon." 。“Xiao Zheng thought, probably because it was inconvenient to speak in the hallway, so he said: “Okay, Town Chief.” 。As the workday ends, at the town government compound, one can see cars, motorcycles, and people leaving in succession. 。Another ten minutes passed, and the courtyard fell silent again. 。Xiao Zheng walked downstairs and saw Town Chief Guan Wenwei's大眾帕薩特 parked in front of the hall. Xiao Zheng walked over and sat in the co-driver's seat. 。Guan Wenwei's driver, Xiao Feng, greeted Xiao Zheng: "Hello, Commissioner Xiao." 。"Xiao Zheng also said, "Okay," and then asked, "Xiao Feng, where is the town chief going later Do you know" Xiao Feng said, "I don't know either." 。"Maybe we should go to the county town" Xiao Zheng was a bit surprised. What could they possibly do in the county town Apparently, Xiaofeng didn't seem to know much either, so Xiao Zheng decided not to ask further. 。Soon, the town head Guan Wenwei came down from upstairs, he carried a black briefcase in his hand. 。This briefcase is made of leather that isn't smooth, but has tiny little granules, which is a pretty popular style right now. 。Guan Wenwei sat in the back seat and said to the driver, "Xiao Feng, let's go to the county." 。Xiaofeng said: "Good, Guan Zhenchang." 。Because there was a driver in the car, Xiao Zheng hadn't had much contact with Xiaofeng before, and he didn't know what to say and what not to say, so he simply remained silent. 。Even the town head remained silent. 。The driver turned on the radio, and a news broadcast was playing: “In order to further strengthen the Party's governance capacity building, comprehensively promote the new grand project of Party construction, ensure that the Party always remains in the forefront, and better shoulder its historical responsibility... it has been decided to carry out the education activity of maintaining the advanced nature of Communist Party members...”

This news broadcast went on for a long time. Xiao Zheng, from the rearview mirror, saw Mayor Guan Wenwei seem to be listening intently. 。"Chief, where are we going now We're already in the county town." 。"Little Feng asked" 。Guan Wenwei only then came to his senses and said, “Oh, we're here Let's go to ‘Laoxiancheng Tucai’." 。"Xiao Feng said: “Good ” 。Xiao Zheng didn't have many opportunities to eat in the county town before. He knew about "An County Earth Chicken Restaurant", but he didn't know where "Old County Town Home-Style Dishes" was. 。Xiao Feng took a stroll around the streets of the county town. Xiao Zheng saw "An County International Hotel," which was the place where "Xiao Yue" had invited Xiao Zheng for a meal last time. 。Xiao Zheng thought, could the town head be bringing himself here for dinner today too However, wasn't it agreed that they were having "rustic dishes from the old county" But, Driver Xiao Feng didn't drive into the "An County International Hotel" instead, he drove a bit further and stopped on the side. 。Opposite the "An County International Hotel" there was a small restaurant hidden within a patch of greenery. It was called "Old County Town Home Cooking". 。Xiao Zheng couldn't help but think of Song Guoming's evaluation of Guan Wenwei on the mountain, "Guan, the town chief, is actually not bad. It's just that since he came down from the county-level organs, when dealing with complex issues, he sometimes gets too soft. Besides that, there's nothing much to say about him." 。"The town mayor used to work in the county government, so he should be familiar with the restaurants in the county seat, right He definitely must have been to these "old county town dishes". 。。There, lights are brilliant, upscale and elegant, with a constant flow of people. 。Guan Wenwei noticed Xiao Zheng's gaze and asked, "Xiao Commissioner, are you envious of being able to enter the An County International Hotel" Xiao Zheng turned his head back and shook his head, saying: "No" 。"Guan Wenwei chuckled and said, “Actually, the dishes at that international hotel aren't as delicious or authentic as those here at 'Lao XiCheng Tu Cai'." 。"Xiao Zheng said, 'Mayor Guan, I know the food in international restaurants is not very good." 。"Do you know" The town chief narrowed his eyes slightly, "Did Commissioner Xiao have a meal Was it the mine owner who invited you" Xiao Zheng smiled and shook his head. "No," 。He is a friend of mine, from the provincial capital. 。Xiao Zheng did not hide 。Guan Wenwei nodded and said, “I almost forgot, Commissioner Xiao is a high-achieving graduate of Hangzhou University, and there are many classmates in the provincial capital. Some of your classmates should be doing well, right”

Xiao Zheng smiled and said, “Mayor Guan, to be honest, most of them should be doing better than me.” 。"guan wenwei asked again, “i heard you could have stayed in the provincial organs or a state-owned enterprise. now that you're back, do you regret it”

Xiao zheng shook his head. “no regrets” 。This time, the county also helped me solve the deputy department position, which shows their care for us. I'm quite satisfied with this. 。“Guan Wenwei nodded. “Contentment brings happiness.” 。It's good that Commissioner Xiao can think this way. 。I'm also satisfied. My organization has sent me down from the county office to be the town mayor, and I am very content with that. 。The wine is here, and the snacks here are really special. Duck in sauce, stir-fried catfish fillets, and braised oxtail are all local specialties. 。Guan Wenwei asked, "Xiao Weiye, this is the first time I've invited you to dinner. I don't even know what kind of wine you like."Xiao Zheng said, "Mayor Guan, I can't hold my liquor, just accompany you for a little bit, any wine will do." 。Guan Wenwei said: "Wait a moment" 。"Saying that, Guan Wenwei immediately called the driver Xiaofeng and said, “Bring up a bottle of wine from the trunk.” 。Because he knew the town head and Xiao committee member were there to handle things, Xiao Feng called for a dish and a soup in the hall to eat by himself. 。After a while, he came up with a bottle of wine. 。This wine is in a glass bottle, with a red label and covered by a transparent plastic cap. It's a bottle of Wuliangye liquor. 。At Chen Hong's house, Chen Guangming also offered Xiao Zheng this wine. 。Xiao Feng opened the package and handed it to Guan Wenwei before leaving. 。Guan Wenwei, holding a bottle of wine, said: "Comrade Xiao, today the two of us will just finish this bottle." 。"Xiao Zheng nodded and said, "Town head, I'm afraid I can't drink half a catty, you drink more." 。Guan Wenwei didn't say much, poured the wine, and raised his cup, saying, "Xiao Weiye, thank you for drinking this lonely glass of wine with me." 。"Guan Wenwei said this was "drinking alone," Xiao Zheng naturally understood what he meant, he said: "Mayor Guan, about today's incident at the mine, I think you did nothing wrong." 。If Cai Shaohua hadn't interfered, we could have really gotten through to the people. 。Guan Wenwei said: "But, after all, we didn't succeed." 。Leaders focus on results. 。I suspect that after this incident, I probably won't be able to stay in town for much longer. 。“Why do you say that” Xiao Zheng was surprised. In Xiao Zheng’s impression, Guan Wenwei had only been in the county government for over a year before moving to the town. He didn't think it would be so soon

Guan Wenwei said: “As you can see, my way of doing things is very different from Song Shuji’s, and our views on the masses are also different.” 。Before, it probably didn't seem like much. 。But this time, Song Shuji's handling of the mining accident was clearly more to Lu Xianzhang's liking. 。“County Magistrate, County Chief Lu is just a Deputy County Chief, he shouldn't be able to decide your whereabouts, right”Guan Wenwei said: “County Chief Lu can’t make the decision, but this time County Chief Lu represents both the County Party Secretary and the County Chief. Moreover, County Chief Lu has a very close relationship with our Fang County Chief.” 。"The 'county magistrate of Fangxian' mentioned by Guan Wenwei refers to the current county magistrate of Anxian, Fang also." 。Even if the County Heads of Lu and Fang have a close relationship, the county leaders should see that today Song's methods did not fundamentally solve the problem. 。"Xiao Zheng said, "That's just temporarily suppressing the common people. The contradiction still exists." 。Today it was suppressed, but tomorrow it will still erupt. 。"Guan Wenwei looked up at Xiao Zheng and said, "Comrades Xiao Zheng, it seems that my observation of you today was not wrong." 。You see, the issue runs pretty deep. 。On the way from town to Fengxi Village that morning, Xiao Zheng suggested reporting the situation to higher-ups as soon as possible. Furthermore, Xiao Zheng had a better understanding of the mine than Jin Hui. At this moment, he pointed out that Song Guomin's approach only suppressed the problem without solving it. 。an ordinary rural official, wouldn't be able to come up with this kind of view. 。Guan Wenwei looked at Xiao Zheng with renewed admiration and sighed, "Comrade Xiao Zheng, it's a pity that I am not capable enough. If I were the Party secretary of the town, I would definitely reuse you!"Xiao Zheng said, "Town Mayor Guan, this is easy to handle, then you just become the Party secretary of the town!" 。 annual performance evaluation. Everyone's bonuses would be affected!"Fang also agreed: "That's right! But our Secretary Xiao seems to trust Tianhuang Town very much..." 。"Wu, the mayor, sighed, 'Ai,...
