Chapter Five Good News Arrives

  With just a few words, Zhao Yuangong announced the new division of labor in the Party and Government Office, and after finishing, he turned around and left, as if he didnt want to stay in the office for another moment. He had conflicts with Cao Dafu, and the current division of labor was definitely Caos idea. He was just substituting for Cao to take notes, which was also an unavoidable thing. Who made him the leader in charge of the Party and Government Office?

  After hearing the announcement, Ye Pingyus heart was like a broken five-flavor bottle, with all kinds of flavors. Just a few days ago, he was still dreaming of being the director of the party and government office, but now it seemed too ridiculous! Cao Dafu had already made arrangements!

  When Zhao Yuangong announced it, Old Zheng, aka Comrade Zheng Zhi Shun, didnt seem to feel any surprise, apparently he had known the news beforehand. Liang Jun also smiled after hearing it, seemingly having some preparation in his heart. Recalling that the two of them went out with Cao Da Fu together at night, this times division of labor adjustment in the party and government affairs can be understood roughly.

  Lao Zheng and Liang Jun were both reused, but there are two doubts. One is that Lao Zheng presided over the party and government office work, although it was a bit unexpected, but everyone didnt say much about it. He is an old-timer and probably got on Cao Dafus line, so he rose to power. However, one suspicious point is that Lao Zheng himself is a deputy department-level cadre, why wasnt he directly appointed as the director of the party and government office, but instead was let to temporarily preside over the party and government office work?

  The second question is that Liang Juns division of labor is responsible for all major and minor matters within and outside the party-government office, which is absolutely overused. This is almost the power of the director of the party-government office, equivalent to hollowing out Lao Zhengs power. If so, what else does Lao Zheng need to do? Why such a division of labor?

  And his own division has not changed much, originally he was responsible for writing materials, only before it was not clear, now it is clear, the only change is that in the party and government office, the ranking moved forward, originally ranked last, now rose to third place, it seems Cao Dafu still trusts him, did not disappoint his original loyalty to him, but his division cant be compared with Liang Juns.

  As for Chang Fang and Zhao Yan, the confidential document transmission work they were responsible for was some trivial tasks. Originally, the three of them did it together, but now its clearly assigned to the two of them, which actually makes things easier for him.

  Moreover, as Yao Weiguo was absent due to leave and did not receive any work assignment, it is estimated that he may be transferred out of the Party and Government Office.

  "After Zhao Yuangong left, Old Zheng looked at everyone and coughed, saying: Ill say a few words now. The party and government office cant be without a leader. For the time being, the township leaders have let me take charge of the party and government office work. Im old and dont want to take on too much, so I hope everyone will do their job. Small Liangs responsibility is the greatest here, and he needs to handle all aspects of things inside and out. If theres anything that needs to be done, please ask for instructions and report back frequently. If Im unsure about something, Ill ask Vice Secretary Zhao or Township Head Cao. Small Ye will focus on doing a good job with written materials, which is an area where you excel, and both I and Township Head Cao are at ease with it. As for Small Zhao and Small Chang, you two female comrades need to unify your commands. We have divided labor but not divided households. If Small Liang or Small Ye need your assistance with anything, you should assist them. Lets work together to do a good job in the party and government office, serving the township leaders well. Thats all I have to say. Does anyone else have any opinions?"

  Lao Zheng, although he has always been low-key and inconspicuous, is now in charge of the party and government office work. His speaking level is no worse than that of other township leaders, and everyone has nothing to say but can only applaud again and again.

  Ye Pingyu wasnt very happy about it, but this matter wasnt something he could decide on. Since Old Zheng was the director of the Party and Government Office, Ye couldnt express his opinion, so he could only follow others in applauding.

  After Old Zheng finished speaking, everyone dispersed. As soon as Old Zheng walked out of the Party and Government Office, Zhao Yanan said with a smile: "Xiao Liang, from now on you will have great power in your hands. The director of this office will be yours sooner or later. When Director Niu was here, you were already in a good position, but now that Director Niu is not here, you are even more favored than before. You really have your own way!"

  Li Jun smiled and said: "Ya Nan, your words are too common. Whats the point of eating or not eating? Following the leader is the right way!"

  Zhao Yanan smiled and didnt say anything else, but in her heart, she was secretly thinking that this guy was good at following the wind, they didnt have such a high level of closely following their leaders.

  By evening, Ye Pingyu found that several mid-level cadres in the town had invited Old Zheng and Liang Jun to dinner at Dongsheng Building. After the party and government office finished dividing tasks, everyone saw the content clearly, and Liang Jun suddenly stood out, so he must be flattered in advance.

  After a few days, the new pattern of the party and government office began to take shape. Old Zheng let go and let Liang Jun do it, while he himself basically became a absentee owner, making people think that he clearly had the intention of cultivating Liang Jun. Then, rumors spread in the countryside that Old Zheng might be promoted to the leadership team, and letting him temporarily preside over the party and government office work was just a transition, and Liang Jun would take over next.

  Ye Pingyu finally understood the two doubts when he heard this. Cao Dafus arrangement for Old Zheng and Liang Jun was indeed a masterpiece. He knew that Liang Jun temporarily didnt have the favor of the people, so he let Old Zheng bring him along first, and then handed him over to Liang Jun. Such an intimate relationship, how could it be comparable to his own? However, he felt extremely perplexed - what kind of magical power did Liang Jun possess that made Cao Dafu value him so much?

  Sitting in the office, seeing Zhao Changs two female colleagues enthusiasm towards Liang Jun, Ye Pingyu couldnt help but feel a bit unbearable. Now his main job was to write materials, and his working hours had become more relaxed. After thinking for a moment, he turned around and walked out of the office.

  But just as they hadnt gone far, Zhao Yanan suddenly ran over and shouted: "Ye Pingyu, someone in the area is calling you!"

  As soon as he heard the phone ringing in the area, Ye Pingyu immediately thought of collecting rice and rushed to the office to answer the call. On the other end of the line came a good news: "Little Ye, the person who buys rice from your village is about to go there, get ready."

  Ye Pingyu immediately exclaimed with joy: "When are they coming? How much rice can we collect?"

  "Tomorrow afternoon, collect as much as you can, and inform the villagers in your village to get ready." The other end said.

  As soon as he heard this news, Ye Pingyu was overjoyed and had to report it to Cao Dafu.

  Seeing Ye Pingyus excited look, Zhao Yanan leaned in with a smile and asked: "Pingyu, whats the good news? I heard that he is from the Regional Bureau, do you have someone at the Regional Bureau?"

  He glanced at Zhao Yan and smiled: "Nothing, our village rice is saved, I have to report to Mayor Cao!"

  Zhao Yan asked curiously: "Whats going on? Are you going to become a rice merchant?"

  "Hehe, thats about it!" Ye Pingyu said with a smile, then turned around and ran towards Cao Dafus office.

  Cao Daifu was sitting calmly in his office, things had been going smoothly lately, and County Deputy Secretary Zhang Mingxun was very supportive of him. Becoming the Party Secretary of Cao Lingzi Township was a done deal, after years of hard work, he finally had the power in his grasp. However, many cadres in the township were not his people, several deputy secretaries had been at odds with him from the start, only Wu Zhenquan, the deputy township head, was his loyal supporter. If Cao Daifu became the secretary, he planned to make Wu Zhenquan the township head, Wu Zhenquan had connections in the region and had contributed to Yang Maojuns downfall this time. To outsiders, it seemed like Yang Maojun was suddenly arrested, but there was more to it than that, without the behind-the-scenes maneuvering, how could someone as cunning as Yang Maojun be brought down so easily?

  Help Wu Zhenquan to the position of township head, let Zhao Yuangong go to the township peoples congress, and then put Old Zheng in the position of deputy secretary of the township party committee. In this way, at the meeting of the five secretaries offices, he will occupy three votes. Although the decision-making power of the township is in the party committee, the secretaries office meeting is a regular deliberation institution. As long as several secretaries meet, things can basically be decided. After grasping the secretaries office meeting, and then slowly tightening power, the entire Caolingzi Township will be his call.

  Just sitting in the office thinking about things, Ye Pingyu suddenly ran up, Cao Dafu saw his panting appearance and said solemnly: "Xiao Ye, what happened? You look flustered!"

  Ye Pingyu hastily stood up straight and said: "Magistrate Cao, theres a great piece of good news that Id like to report to you!"

  As soon as he heard that there was a big good thing, Cao Dafu immediately lay down on the chair, listening attentively to see what good news Ye Pingyu had to report to him.

  "Its like this, someone wants to come to Jinhu Village to purchase rice, and its as much as they want to buy, Ill report to you, is it necessary to assist and help them come to make the purchase?" Ye Pingyu reported seriously to Cao Dafu.

  "I thought it was a big deal, but I didnt expect it to be this matter," Cao Dafu said with a bland expression. "Why do they need our assistance if theyre buying rice?"

  Ye Pingyu said: "There are many acquisitions, if we dont assist, it will affect the acquisition!"

  "When are they coming? Are you in contact with the client?" Cao Dafu suddenly raised his eyelids and asked.

  Ye Pingyu said: "Tomorrow come, not all count as I contacted, but after they arrive will contact me, I take them to."

  Cao Dafu is now anxious about the personnel arrangement in the countryside, and he is not interested in this matter. After thinking for a moment, he said to him: "Since thats the case, youre in charge of it. You just need to assist, and if theres anything that needs to be notified, youll take care of it. They come to collect our rice in the countryside, which is also a good thing, we welcome it!"

  After glancing at Cao Dafu, Ye Pingyu plucked up his courage and said: "Village head, do you think the villages car can..."

  Cao Dafu immediately waved his hand and said, "I have something to do tomorrow, the car cant be lent to them. Besides, they must have their own cars if they come to collect goods, how can they use our cars? Alright, you go, and also ask the comrades from the grain depot to assist!"

  Ye Pingyu wanted to say that he would borrow the Jeep in the countryside for a while, so that he could go back to the village to make arrangements. But now it seems that Cao Dafu is unlikely to lend the car to this ordinary staff member of the party and government office, so he can only ride his bicycle to the village to make some arrangements.
