Chapter 173: A New Beginning

g and I, along with Xiaofeng, have come to toast you." 。Hearing the name "Xiao Feng," Xiao Zheng immediately guessed that this woman should be "Lin Xiaofeng," also known as Lin Yiqiang's mother. 。Xia...Xiao Zheng picked up the bottle of Moutai from his position, poured himself a small cup, raised it, straightened his back, and said in a loud voice: "Today, I will toast everyone with Magistrate Ma's wine..." 。"A heartfelt thanks to all of you for coming to witness the grand spectacle of Bureau Chief Ma being defeated by me! Come, let's have a drink!" Ma Hao's face went from green to white several times, it was truly a sight to behold. 。In An County, Ma Hao may not be the top or second-in-command, but he is a very influential figure. People are afraid of his control over public security and always treat him with deference. 。He had never met anyone as daring as Xiao Zheng, who dared to confront him head-on!

He usually gambled with people, even if he lost the cards, no one dared to take his money. 。Ke Xiaozheng simply wouldn't give him any face. In front of everyone, he made him pay for the whole meal and got his revenge. 。Ma Hao's heart had long hated Xiao Zheng to death, but at this moment, he couldn't do anything about it. 。What angered Ma Hau even more was that someone actually stood up and raised a glass to drink with him. 。There is no doubt that these two people saw Xiao Zheng easily send his girlfriend to the City. Com. Party. Department, thinking that Xiao Zheng must be a big shot, and they already had the intention of flattering him. 。This is how the world really works. When you demonstrate abilities and connections that others can't match, people will flock to you, get close to you, fawn over you, and try to please you. 。This is a world where people discriminate against the poor and favor the rich, bully the weak and fawn over the strong. There are few other paths to choose from besides strengthening your own power until no one dares to bully you. 。

Xiao Zheng's heart was light, he didn't take these people seriously. He tilted his neck back and drank the Maotai wine in the cup, making a "sizzle" sound with his mouth, and praised: "This Maotai wine is really delicious! My task is complete, I'll take my leave now, you guys enjoy slowly." 。Such good wine, don't waste it. 。These people were also influential figures in An County, but birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. Xiao Zheng didn't want to associate with them. He put down his cup and left his seat. 。

Chen Hong was still standing there. 。Xiao Zheng didn't call her, and walked straight out. 。The private room was silent. Chen Hong suddenly realized that Xiao Zheng had left. 。At this point, Cai Shaohua said to Chen Hong, "Chen Hong, why don't you stay and have dinner with us" Chen Hong glanced at him, then at everyone else, and said, "I'm sorry, you all eat slowly, I'll go first." 。"Chen Hong's recent interactions with Cai Shao Hua, Lv Li, Ma Hao and others are nothing but a ploy for job transfers. " 。Now that her transfer has been finalized, she certainly won't continue to stay here. 。Chen Hong picked up her small bag and chased after him. 。

Chen Hong ran out of the private room area's corridor and didn't see Xiao Zheng; she reached the elevator entrance, but still didn't see him. She saw one elevator going up and another going down. Chen Hong felt that Xiao Zheng must have taken the elevator downstairs. 。"Why didn't he wait for me!" Chen Hong muttered in her heart, pressed the downward button, and after waiting for a while, the elevator arrived. Chen Hong hurried into the elevator. 。Chen Hong arrived at the first floor of the hotel and ran into two women coming towards her. One of them was very familiar, it was Li Haiyan, the one who called Xiao Zheng her master; the other woman Chen Hong also had some impression of. Plus with Li Haiyan accompanying her, Chen Hong immediately remembered, wasn't this Xiao Jingyu, the county Party secretary!

Chen Hong didn't know that Xiao Jingyu was staying here, thinking they were also here for dinner >>> 。Li Haiyan also noticed her and nodded to Chen Hong, smiling faintly before accompanying Xiao Jingyu over. 。Xiao Jingyu just glanced at Chen Hong, didn't express anything, and passed by. 。Chen Hong hesitated slightly in the hall, then she swept her eyes across the entire hotel lobby, but she couldn't find Xiao Zheng's figure. Chen Hong immediately ran to the door platform again. 。At this moment, raindrops began to fall outside, as fine as pine needles, as light as cow hair, or as delicate as a beautiful woman's eyelashes. 。As soon as the rain started, the feeling of autumn arrived. 。

Still no sign of Xiao Zheng! Chen Hong felt that her mood was tinged with a hint of autumn. 。Xiao Zheng didn't even pay her any attention, and just walked away alone. 。Chen Hong recalled the scene of almost toasting with Cai Shao Hua today. At that time, she thought it was just a formality, nothing important. But now that the problem is solved, looking back, drinking a toast with Cai Shao Hua in front of her boyfriend was so ridiculous!

Chen Hong looked at the autumn rain falling softly, and a trace of regret crept into her heart. She really hoped Xiao Zheng was by her side now, so she could explain things to him. 。Kao Xiaozheng, but his whereabouts are unknown. 。At this time, a taxi drove onto the platform and saw Chen Hong. The driver asked, "Miss, where to"The word "Miss" made Chen Hong very uncomfortable, but she thought this was a regular taxi and the driver probably didn't mean any harm. He was just used to addressing unfamiliar women that way. She opened the car door and said, "To Jiangnan Mingyue Residential Area">>> 。Chen Hong thought, Xiao Zheng might have already gone back himself. 。Actually, Xiao Zheng didn't leave. 。After he came out of the private room, he went to the eleventh floor of the hotel, which was the tea room of the international grand hotel. 。Today, County Party Secretary Xiao Jingyu entertained guests at the county government guesthouse. After dinner, he made an appointment with Xiao Zheng to meet at the tea room of the International Hotel. 。

Today Xiao Zheng met with Xiao Jingyu in the county Party Secretary's office. Xiao Jingyu refused to transfer Chen Hong to the county Party Committee Office. 。。"Now there's an opportunity to transfer to the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, how about it" Xiao Zheng was surprised: "The Municipal Party Committee Organization Department That's a level higher than the County Party Committee Office." 。Of course. 。"Xiao Jingyu said, 'Here's what I can do, I'll have the relevant leaders from the municipal Party Committee Organization Department get in touch with you.'" 。Next, it was Shi Jing, the permanent deputy minister of the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, who got in touch with Xiao Zheng. 。Xiao Zheng said he would meet with Chen Hong first to discuss, and then call Minister Shi. Later, things happened in the hotel private room. 。Currently, Chen Hong's transfer is finalized; the bet with Ma Hao has also ended in his victory. 。Lü Li originally wanted to make fun of Xiao Zheng by opening 12 bottles of Moutai and 12 packs of Huangye, but in the end, he ended up making fun of Ma Hao instead. 。This made Xiao Zheng feel very happy. 。However, he was still a little puzzled, how did Xiao Jingyu help him get in touch with the Municipal Committee Organization Department So, Xiao Zheng contacted Xiao Jingyu again through Li Haiyan, wanting to ask for clarification. 。After leaving the private room, Xiao Zheng had a lot on his mind regarding Chen Hong and didn't intend to wait for her at all. As time was running out, he directly took the elevator to the 11th floor and found a private room to sit in. 。In a while, Li Haiyan led Xiao Jingyu over. 。Today's events aren't a secret, just discussing the details. Li Haiyan was also in the private room, and the three of them drank tea together. Li Haiyan would occasionally provide them with some service. 。Xiao Zheng asked, "Xiao Shuji, didn't you refuse me before Why did you help contact the Municipal Committee Organization Department later"Xiao Jingyu's question suddenly reminded him of the call from Liu Qingwei, Minister of the Municipal Committee Organization Department. 。Liu Qingwei's intentions were very clear at the beginning, he wanted to poach Xiao Zheng. 。Ke Xiaojingyu just promoted Xiao Zheng, and the advancement of "Rich and Elegant Countryside Construction" also wouldn't be possible without Xiao Zheng. 。To make Tianhuang Town a typical example in the "Beautiful Rural Construction," relying solely on the efforts of Town Party Secretary Guan Wenwei and Xiao Jingyu is actually not reassuring. 。If Guan Wenwei was the kind of person who could wave flags and shout slogans, Xiao Zheng was the mainstay, the one who could go into battle. 。So, for now, Xiao Jingyu won't let Xiao Zheng go. Otherwise, the "Rich and Elegant Countryside Construction" project might be abandoned halfway through. 。Then, should she tell Xiao Zheng about Liu Qingwei coming to get someone Xiao Jingyu hesitated on this point. 。If you tell the truth, would Xiao Zheng want to go to the Organization Department of the Municipal Committee

She asked: "What do you think of the Organization Department of the Municipal Committee"

Xiao Zheng said: "Of course, the Organization Department of the Municipal Committee is good. Many people want to go, but they can't." 。"Xiao Jingyu asked, "Isn't it better than the County Party Committee Office"

Xiao Zheng glanced at Xiao Jingyu and said, "To be honest, in my opinion, it has more potential than the County Party Committee Office." 。The county committee office is just equivalent to an assistant department-level leader, but when it comes to the municipal party committee organization department, things change. You can potentially become a county committee standing member or deputy county magistrate. 。"Such a good place, don't you also want to go" Xiao Jingyu tentatively asked. Xiao Jingyu's gaze was fixed on Xiao Zheng, observing every little expression on his face. 。Xiao Zheng burst into a hearty laugh and said: "I, don't want to go >>> 。At least for now, I don't want to. 。"Xiao Zheng's smile was very genuine, very natural, definitely not put on." 。Xiao Jingyu then asked, "Why don't you want to go"

Xiao Zheng said, "My current business is in An County, in Tianhuang Town." 。“The construction of ‘beautiful villages and prosperous countryside’ has yielded no results, I don't want to go anywhere! My hometown hasn't become a place of ‘lush water and green mountains with abundant prosperity’, and I feel uneasy wherever I go.” 。And now that I'm the town mayor, going to the city committee organization department might mean starting all over again. It's better to make a name for myself right here on this land. I don't believe there's no room for growth!"

Xiao Zheng's words showed both ambition and pragmatism. He accurately positioned himself – he wanted to serve his hometown while also advancing himself. These two aspirations seemed not contradictory but perfectly integrated in him, leaving Xiao Jingyu in awe of his thought process. 。Xiao Jingyu only smiled faintly at this moment: “It’s good that you think so.” 。I'll be honest with you, your girlfriend Chen Hong's transfer was made in exchange for you. 。"Xiao Zheng still didn't understand: " Xiao Shuji, how do you say that"

Xiao Jingyu said: "Today, Minister Liu from the Municipal Committee Organization Department called me and said he wanted to transfer you to the Municipal Committee Organization Department as the office director, asking if I agreed." 。I said, the "beautiful countryside construction" project in Tianhuang Town wouldn't be complete without you, so I declined Director Liu's request. 。Then it occurred to me, isn't your girlfriend aspiring to work in the government So I highly recommended her to him. 。To be honest, this makes me feel a little better. At least by stopping you from going to the city, I'm giving your girlfriend some compensation. 。"Xiao Zheng smiled wryly. About his girlfriend Chen Hong, he thought, maybe tomorrow she wouldn't be his girlfriend anymore." 。Over all these years, Xiao Zheng felt for the first time that Chen Hong might not be suitable for him. 。Perhaps it is time to cut off all ties. 。to think about it so much either." 。"You're still very young, anything is possible! Who knows, maybe one day the organization will transfer you to Guangdong. What will you do then" Xiao Zheng shook hi...
