Chapter 949 Taking office
Chapter 949 Taking office
After a reunion on New Year's Eve, the Zhao family's children gradually went their separate ways, but this time they didn't go alone. Most of them left with their wives, except for Wei Min's wife Xiao Suizi. Of course, Daisy stayed in the Zhao family mansion in Peking. After all, she had just given birth and was still in confinement.
Wei Qing didn't go back for the time being. He had already asked for leave before coming back and planned to wait until Daisy was out of confinement before leaving.
Wei Nong left on the eighth day of the first lunar month after the New Year and went directly to Handong to take up his post.
After arriving in Jingzhou City, Wei Nong first went to the provincial Organization Department. After all, he had to report to the Organization Department first, right?
"Xiao Zhao, we have been waiting for you for a long time! Secretary Zhao is here today. He often talks about you and told me that he must take you to meet him first when you come! Let's go, Secretary Zhao is here too, let's go together!" Minister Sun of the Organization Department looked at the young man in front of him with a smile, with infinite emotion in his heart.
Although he is the Minister of Organization, two levels higher than Zhao Weinong in front of him, he is already sixty years old. However, this little guy in front of him is only twenty-seven years old, and he has already reached the position of a full-level bureau chief.
As long as he didn't make any mistakes and made some achievements, coupled with the powerful background behind him, his achievements in this life would definitely surpass his own. How could he not take such a person seriously?
Although Secretary Zhao and I are from the same department, Secretary Zhao's potential is not as high as that of the young man in front of me!
"Okay, Minister Sun!" Wei Nong would certainly not refuse. It would be nice to meet Zhao Lichun. Zhao Lidong, who always caused trouble for him before, was Zhao Lichun's youngest brother. Wei Nong was also curious about what Zhao Lichun was like.
In less than five minutes, Wei Nong followed Minister Sun to Zhao Lichun's office. Minister Sun knocked on the door politely.
"Come in!" Zhao Lichun's voice came from inside.
"Secretary Zhao, Comrade Wei Nong is here to report today!" Minister Sun pushed open the door and walked in, smiling as he walked.
Hearing what Minister Sun said, Zhao Lichun looked up in surprise and saw Wei Nong following behind Minister Sun. Looking at Wei Nong's appearance, Zhao Lichun couldn't help but sigh that he was worthy of being the son of the deputy commander-in-chief. Regardless of anything else, just his appearance gave people a very comfortable feeling.
"Haha, Xiao Zhao, come and sit down! I've been looking forward to your arrival for a long time!" Zhao Lichun said with a smile. In fact, this was not Zhao Lichun's nonsense, because Zhao Lichun's current position is Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, and he is in the same system as Weinong.
And this is also the reason why he was able to transfer Wei Nong over. If he was just a simple deputy secretary, there would be no excuse to transfer Wei Nong over directly.
"Secretary Zhao, thank you for your compliment. I am just an ordinary civil servant!" Wei Nong had to speak modestly, of course. Moreover, Wei Nong had a good impression of Zhao Lichun on their first meeting. Compared with Zhao Lidong, who was nothing but willing to put on airs, Zhao Lichun was much stronger.
"Hey, young man, don't be modest. What you have done after working is the quality that a qualified Political and Legal Affairs Commission Secretary should have. You are not afraid of power and dare to fight! Our Handong Province lacks a Political and Legal Affairs Commission Secretary as upright as you! Your coming is just right to fill the gap in our Jingzhou City!" Zhao Lichun said with a smile.
In fact, what Zhao Lichun said was somewhat intended to curry favor with Wei Nong, but Wei Nong certainly would not take it seriously. He knew that the person Zhao Lichun really wanted to curry favor with was his father, the one who could veto him.
Wei Nong was not a novice who knew nothing. He knew that his transfer to Handong was both a good thing and a bad thing!
The good thing is that my promotion speed has surpassed everyone else. There are only a few such young provincial-level cadres in the country. If there are any, it is only during the previous period and the war.
The downside is that I have been dragged into a trap by the little guy. The Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee of Jingzhou City is under the jurisdiction of Zhao Lichun. Once Zhao Lichun can successfully reach the top at this time when the old secretary is seriously ill, I will have to be more careful in the future.
Because Zhao Lichun may turn against them at any time. After all, the two families had conflicts before. Although it ended with Zhao Lidong being transferred, who knows whether Zhao Lichun will avenge his brother?
Besides, his father had tricked him last time! Although this time the little guy took the initiative to strengthen his relationship with the Zhao family in Peking, what if he took the top position and turned around to purge Wei Nong? So Wei Nong had to be on guard!
"Secretary Zhao, my father told me before he came here that I should work hard here and do well in the things within my responsibilities. Never think about competing for power and profit with others. I am still young and may have various shortcomings in my work at this stage. I should learn more from old comrades, listen more, watch more, do more, and talk less! So you can rest assured, after I take office, I will definitely do my job well and will never embarrass Secretary Zhao!" Wei Nong said with a smile.
Wei Nong's words also surprised Zhao Lichun and Minister Sun. They did not expect that the deputy commander-in-chief would have such an explanation. Although Zhao Lichun did want to transfer Wei Nong to Handong in order to stabilize him, on the one hand it was a gesture of goodwill, on the other hand he might have intended to use Wei Nong as a hostage.
So after hearing Wei Nong's words, Zhao Lichun knew that he had made the right bet this time. The deputy commander would definitely not try to trick him again at this critical juncture when he was competing for the position. Moreover, Wei Nong's words just now made it clear that the Zhao family would not intervene in his struggle with Liang Qunfeng.
Although he did not get the explicit support from that person, as long as that person did not snipe him, Zhao Lichun could be guaranteed to win. As for the reason, of course, he was afraid that a top leader would be parachuted in from the central government!
Minister Sun understood that although Mr. Zhao in front of him was young, he was very efficient. It was his first time meeting a big leader like Zhao Lichun, but he was able to chat and laugh with him without changing his expression. He was worthy of being a person from a big family. He was really different.
"Haha, good, good! Seeing you now reminds me of when I was your age. In order to make revolution, I also dared to fight the Japanese with bayonets! I'm old now, and the future depends on you young people!" Zhao Lichun said with emotion.
"Secretary Zhao is still in his prime. I believe he will get better! After all, you still have many opportunities, don't you?" Wei Nong said with a smile.
"Okay, then let Minister Sun take you to report to the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee first! Xiao Li, Xiao Li!" Zhao Lichun shouted to the outside of the door.
Soon, a young man in a Mao suit walked into the office. "Boss, you called me?" he asked, his face full of confusion.
