Just came out of Tan Qiping's house, it was almost ten o'clock when I received a call from Pan Shihua.

Xiong Wenbin knew that the Tangzha District Standing Committee would hold a meeting today to discuss the merger of the two towns, and also knew that Pan Shihua called at this time because of Zhou Ming's job arrangement.

Xiong Wenbin remembered that when he left Tan Qiping's house just now, Tan Qiping also raised the issue of Zhou Ming's position. Tan Qiping said that "it's a good thing for Zhou Ming to exercise in Meixi Town", and he asked Xiong Wenbin to think about half pay.

Xiong Wenbin didn't want to pay attention to this matter in his heart, but even without Tan Qiping's words, he couldn't care less about his son-in-law, so he made an appointment with Pan Shihua on the phone to meet at a teahouse near his residence.

When he got there, Xiong Wenbin asked Huang Xi, who drove him back, to go back first. He walked in and saw Zhou Ming, Dai Ni, Dai Ling, and Dai Ling's classmate Xin Qi also playing cards in the teahouse hall. There was a young man sitting next to him, watching. It was familiar, but I couldn't remember who it was. I thought it was a classmate of Dailing or Xin Qi.

"Dad, how did you come here? Mom told you we played cards here?" Dini Xiong asked curiously when she saw her father walking in.

Xiong Wenbin has not moved out of the dormitory of the government office. The place where he lives is very small. If there are any guests at home, he is used to coming to the teahouse here.

"I made an appointment with District Mayor Pan to meet here; Zhou Ming is the best here..." Xiong Wenbin said.

"Secretary-General Xiong, hello."

The young man stood up and greeted formally, Xiong Wenbin was rather strange: "Who are you?"

"I'm Xiao Chu, a clerk of the Assets Office of Meixi Town," Chu Qiang greeted. "Today Secretary Xiong, your daughter and Xin Qi went to Meixi Town for research, and Secretary Shen asked me to accompany them. Send them back at night, Division Zhou. Chang was kind enough to let me have dinner, and then came over to play cards together."

"Oh, Xiao Chu, I remember you, your father is Chu Yiliang," Xiong Wenbin still didn't remember the specific name of the young man, looked at Zhou Ming doubtfully, but couldn't figure out what he was thinking, could he figure it out? already?

When Chu Qiang heard Xiong Wenbin said he wanted to meet Pan Shihua, he said goodbye and left.

Xin Qi turned around and asked him, "We will go to Meixi Town tomorrow to find you?"

"If Secretary Shen has no other arrangements, you should come and find me; even if I'm not here, Secretary Shen will arrange for others to receive you." Chu Qiang said.

Watching Chu Qiang leave, Xiong Wenbin asked his young daughter, "What are you doing in Meixi Town?"

"Uncle Xiong, I want to write a paper on the economic development of townships and towns. Meixi Town is a good research object." Xin Qi said.

"Yeah," Xiong Wenbin looked at Xiong Dai, a classmate who was generous, not like an ordinary girl, nodded and said, "Meixi is one of the few typical towns in Donghua City worth studying," he said to Xiong Ling. , "You can go to Meixi Town for research, but be careful not to affect other people's work..."

"I didn't interfere with other people's work. It was people who enthusiastically insisted on driving Xin Qi back. I just took the car back. I wonder if they are thinking of something else?" Xiong Dailing said with a "giggling" smile.

Xiong Wenbin shook his head and smiled. His wife was always worried that her daughter should not fall in love when she just entered the university, but he and his wife were still in the school, so he was neither conservative nor conservative about the feelings between young people.

Pan Shihua rushed over quickly, and Xiong Wenbin picked a corner in the restaurant hall to talk to him.

The District Standing Committee decided to support the merger of the two towns and support the two towns to develop an industrial park first. Regardless of whether they can get the approval of the province and city, at least Zhou Ming cannot be sent to Hetang Town as the mayor in the near future, and everything in Hetang Town is unfavorable for the two towns. The administrative actions of the merger will be temporarily frozen, waiting for the final result.

Zhou Ming's organizational file has been transferred to Tangzha District. He wants to wait for the final result of the merger of the two towns first, or arrange other specific positions to work first.

Tangzha District naturally didn't need to explain anything to Zhou Ming, but it had to give Xiong Wenbin an explanation, so Yang Yuquan asked Pan Shihua to come over in person.

Xiong Wenbin was quite surprised to hear that Yuan Hongjun also volunteered to be the deputy secretary of Xinzhen. In these days, everyone is eager to go up, and it is rare for people to take a step back.

Xiong Wenbin glanced at Zhou Ming.

I came back from the construction site yesterday, and briefly talked about the merger of the two towns in the car. Seeing that Zhou Ming was greatly touched, he was also very resistant. Xiong Wenbin wanted to give him some time to digest it, but he was afraid that he would not be able to turn around. , Pan Shihua came to him today before he had time to talk to him and do ideological work.

"I temporarily inserted a pole for Shen Huai. Meixi and Hetang towns have to undergo a lot of personnel changes. Although Zhou Ming's appointment has passed the district standing committee meeting, it can only be frozen for the time being. However, the authority of the district standing committee meeting, we It still has to be maintained; besides, Zhou Ming's organizational file has also been transferred, even if we are in the Tangzha District, it is our responsibility to arrange it," Pan Shihua said, "Now the district needs to arrange a senior-level seat, and it takes many methods. Coordination, if Zhou Ming doesn't mind, he can be the deputy director of the advanced district office for a period of time."

The zhèngfǔ Office of Tangzha District seems to be at the same level as the Municipal Planning Commission Office, but it is a position that is both easy to advance and retreat, with relatively much more power and flexible staffing.

Unable to move a better seat for a while, Pan Shihua wanted Zhou Ming to transition to the district office as deputy director, and when a good seat in the district or township became available, Zhou Ming could quickly fill it up.

"Thank you for your concern, Mayor Pan," Zhou Ming said with a smile, "I don't care very much about those who are not on duty. If possible, I would still think of the township to exercise."

Pan Shihua secretly said: Today is really a sect, looked at Xiong Wenbin suspiciously, and said, "I'm afraid there is no way for Meixi Town to arrange another deputy secretary at the department level, just will the deputy mayor..."

Shen Huai is the boss of Meixi Town. Needless to say, He Qingshe is the deputy secretary and the mayor, so he is naturally at the level of the main division. Shen Huai approved. Next is the deputy secretary Li Feng, who has also worked hard in Meixi Town, but is still at the deputy section level.

In the district, Zhou Ming must be forced into Meixi Town at the level of the main department. There will be four main departments in Meixi Town, and the order of Zhou Ming and Li Feng's seats will also be chaotic. Shen Huai is probably not willing to be in the district. Such a messy arrangement for Meixi Town. Zhou Ming must go to Meixi Town. He can only be an ordinary deputy mayor, not even a party committee member.

Xiong Wenbin was still surprised. Obviously, Zhou Ming had some resistance yesterday, but he turned a corner today?

Xiong Wenbin knew that Zhou Ming had met with Su Kaiwen in the morning, and thought that maybe Su Kaiwen would do Zhou Ming's work.

Thinking of Tan Qiping's words again, Xiong Wenbin sighed softly in his heart, and said casually: "Zhou Ming is still young, and it really doesn't matter if he has a job or not. , this will be good for his future development, and I also hope that the organization department of Tangzha District can give more consideration to this aspect for young cadres..."

"Okay, young people now have more ambitions than us, take a step back and open up the sky," Pan Shihua laughed, since Zhou Ming didn't mind the accidental interruption of this promotion, he was willing to be transferred to Meixi Town as the deputy mayor. Naturally, he didn't mind, and he saved a trouble and said, "I'll report to Secretary Yang tomorrow. But this way, all the young people in Tangzha District went to Meixi Town, Meixi Town. It is impossible for the town to develop without thinking..."

Pan Shihua said goodbye and left without staying any longer. Xiong Dailing and Xin Qi also went back to rest first. Xiong Daini wanted to go back to her home with her husband, so she stayed with Zhou Ming in the teahouse and talked to her father for a while.

Xiong Wenbin asked the owner of the restaurant to come up with a pack of gold leaf cigarettes. Just as he was about to unpack and light it, he grabbed it for his eldest daughter, Xiong Dini, and complained, "Your mother is very strict at home, I can't even touch the **** of the cigarette. You have to control, Take care of Zhou Ming and leave me a way to live..." He wanted to grab the cigarette.

Zhou Ming smiled and said, "Dani is pregnant and can't smell the smoke, but I don't want to care about you. I have completely banned smoking at home."

"Really?" Xiong Wenbin asked happily, then withdrew his hand and stopped grabbing cigarettes.

After adding another cup of tea, Xiong Wenbin returned to the topic and asked Zhou Ming, "You decided to go to Meixi Town to be the deputy mayor, what did you think?"

"I first heard about the merger of the two towns yesterday. I couldn't figure it out a bit, but today I calm down and think about it. Shen Huai is building a freight wharf and Meihe Road in Meixi Town, and then first If the two villages of Li She and Caijiaqiao were merged, there should have been the idea of ​​merging the two towns long ago, so whether I go to Hetang or not this time, he will promote this matter, whether it is for the two towns, or For Tangzha District, the merger of the two towns actually has more advantages than disadvantages, so there is no reason to stop it.”

Zhou Ming said calmly,

"There are more than 200 townships in seven counties in the third district of Donghua. In the next few years, there will probably not be any one that can develop better than Meixi Town. I think that even if you become a deputy mayor of Meixi Town, you should be better than Meixi Town. More training opportunities in most other townships..."

Seeing Zhou Ming's thoughtful speech, Xiong Wenbin nodded and said, "If you can think so, that's the best. This time, the city development zone has almost no actual results, while the three major projects in Meixi Town are It can all be implemented. When the freight wharf, Meixi Highway, Zhuxi Road and Bridge and other projects are completed successively, the development prospects of Meixi Town are quite impressive. Maybe the total economic volume in three to five years may not be much less than that of the three northwest counties. If you can do some work pragmatically, going to Meixi Town is indeed the most suitable..."

The overall economy of Donghua City is lagging behind, but that is the case. The three districts and seven counties of Donghua City are divided into three, six, nine, and so on. The three counties in the northwestern mountainous area are truly impoverished counties.

Meixi Town's fiscal revenue is likely to exceed 20 million this year, and the financial scale of each county in the three northwestern counties is between 40 million and 60 million. As long as Meixi Town maintains the current momentum, it will work harder. , maybe next year will be able to surpass. That's the real poor place. Except for Chengguan Town, which is a little more decent, there are vacancies for the top leaders of the township, and most people don't want to go there.
