Chapter 1692: War is Imminent

more, the people's happy life can be guaranteed more!On the plane, as the altitude increases, Mayor Luo Ming, who usually doesn't take helicopters, felt ear pain. 。This is caused by the difference in...Xiao Zheng called out to Yang Xuěhǔ: "Let's go over there and have something to drink." 。"Yang Xuēhǔ said, 'Should we invite Mrs. Xiao and the others The sugar water on this street is quite famous.'" 。Xiao Zheng said, "Let them wait and come back for a drink later. Let's go first. I want to have a word with you privately." 。Then Yang Xuhǔ nodded: "Okay, Secretary Xiao, we'll be there in two steps. I just saw..." 。Xiao Zheng said: “Okay, let’s go.” 。Xiao Zheng and Yang Xuehu sat down at an open-air table at a well-known sweet drink shop. It wasn't peak tourist season, so the two of them weren't bothered by the street noise as they basked in the sun. Each ordered a ginger milk tea. Xiao Zheng usually didn't eat these kinds of things, but after taking a sip, he found it tasted pretty good. 。Xiao Zheng raised his drink and clinked glasses with Yang Xuhe, saying, "Xuhe, later today, I'll have Secretary Yang send you to the Provincial Committee. Congratulations!" Yang Xuhe said anxiously, "Secretary Xiao, I wouldn't be where I am today without your guidance, Secretary Xiao!"

Xiao Zheng smiled at him and said, "The training provided by the organization and one's own qualities always work together." 。Moreover, it's great that you work alongside me. You've eased my workload significantly. Not only have I noticed it, but the provincial committee leaders have as well, which is why they promoted you. 。“I will always cherish the time I worked by Secretary Xiao's side.” 。"In the future, I'll be working by Secretary Xiong's side. If you have anything, Secretary Xiao, just tell me. I'll definitely do whatever I can!"

Xiao Zheng shook his head slightly at him and then smiled, "Xuehu, I know you're a man of loyalty." 。That's why I want to talk to you today. 。Yang Xuehu felt Xiao Zheng's seriousness and sat upright, nodding: "Yes, Secretary Xiao!" Xiao Zheng continued, "Xuehu, you've been with me for so long, our relationship need not be said." 。But, everything has changed since you went to work today. You are the secretary of the provincial committee, and I am the secretary of Dongcao City Committee. 。As a secretary, there is a set of rules for doing things that you must follow. 。Of course, I would also remind myself not to pry into things that are none of my business. 。But even if I ask you, and it's inconvenient for you to say, you should still stick to your principles in the future and not say anything! I believe that Secretary Ye will come to talk to you personally. You just follow her instructions, do what needs to be done, say what needs to be said, and don't do or say anything that shouldn't be done. Yang Xuehu nodded seriously, and at the same time, he felt a lot less burden in his heart. He also knew that Xiao Zheng was thinking about him and helping him cut off ties with the past so that he could serve the new leadership better. 。Yang Xuhua expressed his gratitude only to Xiao Zheng: "Yes, Secretary Xiao, thank you for considering me!"

Xiao Zheng said again: "There's one more request" 。Since you served as my contact, you're someone who walked out from beside me. In the future, when you reach the side of the Provincial Party Secretary, your power will be greater, opportunities will be more abundant, and temptations will come in all shapes and sizes. 。I hope you will uphold the bottom line of integrity and self-discipline, and do not have problems with power, money, or sex. 。In terms of power, do not use power to gain other people's money. Once you do so, you taint power and are no longer worthy of having it! In terms of wealth, do not be greedy for riches. Officials should not worry about money. As your position rises, the less you need money. Money can only be used to exchange resources and labor, but power can directly mobilize resources and command manpower. The state has already taken care of other necessities like food, clothing, housing, and medical care. 。If you don't understand this, sooner or later you'll lose the watermelon while picking up sesame seeds! When it comes to women, you have Tao Fang, and you might meet even prettier and younger women in the future. But one thing is certain: women who take the initiative to approach you are generally not interested in you as a person, but in your power. They don't want to form a bond with you, they want to marry into power. 。I may be speaking too abstractly, and perhaps even vaguely. 。But, as of now, I'm still your leader, and these are words I must say!"

"Secretary Xiao, I know you say these things because you care about me, you love me" 。"Yang Xuhe said earnestly, "I will always keep this in mind and take these words to my new post!" Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "Good, I'm finished. Let's go." 。Yang Xuehu then said, "Secretary Xiao, although I'm afraid I may not be able to serve you in the future, Tao Fang and I have a small request. When Tao Fang and I get married, we still hope that you can be our witness!"Xiao Zheng readily replied, "That's a must!"Yang Xuehu excitedly said, "Great!"Afterwards, Xiao Zheng called Yang Jie, the secretary of the municipal party committee, to instruct him on the matter of sending Yang Xuehu to the provincial party committee office. Before Yang Xuehu left, Xiao Zheng asked him to bring a box of double skin milk to Yang Jie, Ye, the secretary-general, and Xiong, the secretary: "Just say it's from me." 。"Yang Xehua smiled and nodded, saying, 'Yes!'"

That evening, Yang Xehua went to report. When it was dinner time, Yang Jie came back and reported to Xiao Zheng: "Secretary Xiao, Yang Xehua has already reported. Secretary Ye said he's busy recently, so he let him stay at the Provincial Party Committee Office to work." 。"Xiao Zheng nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Secretary Ye is indeed very busy." 。"Yang Jie said again, “Secretary Xiong and Secretary Ye both said thank you for the double skin milk. They drank it in front of me and said it tasted good. They can’t usually eat this kind of thing.” 。"Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "If the leaders like it." 。。"I could have taken on both roles, but I was worried that I wouldn't be able to do both the secretary of the provincial committee and the liaison well!" Xiao Zheng nodded: "You're right, we need to find a liaison as soon as possible." 。I've got a pretty good idea in my mind after waiting for two more days. 。"Yang Jie said happily, “That's great!”

That evening, Zhao Yanyan, deputy general manager of Meili Hotel, personally invited Xiao Zheng and the others to dinner. " 。Xiao Zheng originally wanted to decline, but Zhao Yunyan said: "Secretary Xiao, your whole family lives in the hotel where I work. The room fees are still paid by yourselves. If I don't treat you all to a meal, I would feel really uncomfortable." 。"Xiao Zheng wanted to refuse again, Zhao Yunyan gave the phone to her boyfriend, Fu Jiang Shun, chairman of Ya Chuan Group: “Secretary Xiao, I am Jiang Shun” 。This meal, we keep it simple, but it has to impress Yunya! She said that in a few days our group will be going to Jingzhou for an inspection, and she'll be going too. 。"If you don't allow Secretary Xiao Jingyu to have this meal, we'll feel embarrassed to eat in Jingzhou when we go there!"

Xiao Zheng asked: "Does Mr. Fu want to go to Jingzhou himself Isn't it up to your manager or deputy general manager to go" Fu Jiang said casually: "After thinking about it, I decided to go and inspect it myself." 。"Alright, I'll do as you ask." 。That evening, during dinner, Fu Jiangshun and Xiao Jingyu toasted each other. It was then made clear that Fu Jiangshun would personally lead the team to investigate power batteries in Jingzhou. 。This laid a good foundation for cooperation between the Jiachuan Group and battery manufacturers in Chang County. 。After dinner, as everyone was about to return to their rooms, Lü Qichen reported to Xiao Zheng: "Xiao Secretary, two people want to see you" 。After Lu Chiqin followed Xiao Zheng and the others to Suqing Temple yesterday, Xiao Zheng let her follow. After all, she was a woman, and there were women in Xiao Zheng's family too. Having her around would be more convenient. 。Xiao Zheng asked, “Who is it” Lü Chiqin said, “It’s Hui Peng and Qian Xiao. They said they wanted to thank you and Mrs. Xiao, so they came all the way from Dongcao.” 。"I wonder if we could get them to come to the hotel" Xiao Zheng pondered for a moment before saying, "Let's invite them." 。Zhao Yunyan was right beside him and said, “Secretary Xiao, I’ve arranged a guest room for you.” 。“From this reception room, hundreds of meters above the ground, you can see the bustling city of Yuezhou in its entirety.” 。Xiao Jingyu and Xiao Zheng looked out at the night together. Xiao Jingyu said, "Looking down from a high place, you can see more comprehensively. Things that you usually can't see or see clearly are all within your sight." 。Xiao Zheng said: “However, it gets cold at high places.” 。Not only that, standing at a height allows for a wider view, but things also become blurred. Everything is just a general outline. 。A living human being has become an ant; a city's people have become mere numbers. 。People in high positions often fail to understand the difficulties, pain, and helplessness of those below them. They simply don't care!Xiao Jingyu looked at Xiao Zheng with astonishment: "So, people in high positions must take the elevator down, walk on the streets, and go to the countryside. Otherwise, they will become cold and lonely, right"Xiao Zheng nodded: "Whenever we have the chance, let's go for a walk. I still prefer the warmth of human life." 。"Xiao Jingyu said: "We first met on a rainy country road in An County! If you had always been in those high-rises, you would never have met me, and I wouldn't have been saved!" Xiao Zheng said: "At that time, you were the one who was high up there! I was just a frustrated little official!" Xiao Jingyu said: "Life changes quickly, but I like this kind of change" 。Every day I spend with you, I cherish it immensely. It's hard to imagine that in fifty or sixty years, we will both be gone from this world!Xiao Zheng hugged Xiao Jingyu's slender waist: "Then let's cherish every day we have now!"After a while, Hui Peng and Qian Xiao arrived. 。They came together to thank Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu. 。Qian Xiao said to Xiao Jingyu, "Mrs. Xiao, the day before yesterday you advised me to accept Hui Peng, but I didn't listen." 。"If it weren't for you having someone protect me, I'm afraid I would have been in terrible danger last night! Thank you!" Qian Xia bowed deeply to Xiao Jingyu. Hui Peng also bowed: "Mrs. Xiao, thank you for your concern for Qian Xia and me" 。"Xiao Jingyu helped them up and said, "Hui Peng is deeply in love and unwavering. Qian Xiao has turned over a new leaf and reformed." 。"You two deserve my and Xiao Zheng's care and support!"

Qian Xia and Hui Peng bowed to Xiao Zheng again, then Qian Xia said: "Secretary Xiao, thank you for being so magnanimous and forgiving! I want to report that since yesterday, Hui Peng and I have been living together." 。"Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu looked at each other, unable to help but smile. Xiao Zheng said: "It seems that Hui Peng has gotten his wish." 。"Hui Peng blushed and said, 'It's all thanks to Secretary Xiao's concern!'" After having Xiaonuo, Hui Peng also learned to speak. 。Xiao Zheng remembered something and said, "Hui Peng, now that you have someone you love, you will inevitably bear the weight of life in the future!working conditions at Longmen Hydrological Station are still too harsh. Hydrological work is important, and the comrades on the hydrological front make great sacrifices. I hope Mayor Miao can pay more...
