Coincidentally, the carriages Zhou Tianhao and Zheng Qin shared were both hard-sleeper carriages.
Zheng Qin, a girl, was carrying a big suitcase. Girls are like this. They have a lot of clothes, cosmetics, etc. It is easy to fill a big suitcase. Zhou Tianhao gritted his teeth and helped Zheng Qin was carrying a large suitcase, which was indeed a bit heavy. He didn't know what was inside. Although the suitcase could be slid, he had to carry it when he got in the car. Zheng Qin did not refuse and walked in with a smile. to the front.
After getting on the bus, Zhou Tianhao quickly found his seat. He bought a ticket for the lower berth, while Zheng Qin bought a ticket for the middle berth. Because the distance was not far, Zhou Tianhao placed Zheng Qin's suitcase next to the bed, and he also Not going to sleep.
After finding the bed, Zheng Qin came over quickly.
"Director Zhou, yours is a lower berth. I didn't buy a lower berth."
¡°Oh, it doesn¡¯t take long, we¡¯ll be there in the afternoon anyway.¡±
"That's not necessarily the case. It has to be late. The last time I took this train, I arrived at night."
"Why, didn't your unit send a car to take you off?"
"The first time I went there was a gift, but then I stopped sending it. I also took the train when I came back. I'm not a leader, so how could I have a special car? Fortunately, the train ticket can be reimbursed, so it doesn't matter."
Provincial units have tasks for poverty alleviation work. Zhou Tianhao does not agree with this arrangement. Some poverty alleviation groups have actually become nuisance groups. After they go down, they must be well entertained. If they are not careful, they will lose their temper. In fact, You can't do anything for the people below. Provincial units with power and money can get projects. Most provincial units are not so capable of allocating funds for support. In the end, part of the unit's funds are allocated to poverty alleviation. In fact, these funds were ultimately sought from the provincial government.
No one can change this situation. The status of the upper and lower levels is different. Leaders or staff at the top go to work at the bottom. The people below are warmly received, fearing that there may be some lack of care. However, when ordinary cadres below come to higher-level agencies, they may not have anywhere to eat. Unless you are a leader, you must be prepared to solve all food and drink problems by yourself.
The Provincial Party Committee has determined that Shaoning City has the largest number of poverty alleviation groups. There are more than a dozen, among which the most powerful poverty alleviation unit is the Provincial Department of Finance. The rest of the units are average. This is why Zhou Tianhao can boldly ask for 20 million in fiscal working capital.
Zheng Qin is one of the batch of bachelors recruited by the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office. He is not very old. She doesn¡¯t have much social experience, and she hasn¡¯t been working for a long time. At this age, going to Shaoning City to help the poor is probably just a show for her work unit. What can a girl do if she goes to Shaoning City to help the poor?
Zhou Tianhao didn¡¯t know if Zheng Qin was married, but judging from Zheng Qin¡¯s behavior, it didn¡¯t look like he was married. But at this age, it¡¯s time to make friends.
But Zhou Tianhao still wanted to find out more and see how Zheng Qin carried out poverty alleviation work in Shaoning City.
After Zheng Qin sat down across from him, Zhou Tianhao smiled and spoke.
"The Foreign Affairs Office assigned you to go to Shaoning City for poverty alleviation. It seems that it trusts you."
"What kind of trust? No one was willing to go. I was young and had to bear the burden, so I went to Shaoning City to help the poor. For one year, the units took turns to go there. After three years of poverty alleviation, eight people were the first to go. I am the second person to go back to work in the workplace. The leader has said that the poverty alleviation policy will change. If you perform well at work and can be promoted, I have no intention of being promoted at all. I will return to the provincial capital as soon as possible."
Zhou Tianhao was almost speechless. With such an attitude towards poverty alleviation, what kind of job can he do? It is better to go out and play for a year, then return to work in the unit, with subsidies and qualifications. But Zheng Qin can say this, or It's very simple, a real old cunning guy will tell a lot of truth and boast to the heavens.
"Oh, it looks like you are still in mood."
"I have no emotions, Director Zhou. I just said it casually."
Zheng Qin was a little nervous. At this time, he may have remembered Zhou Tianhao's identity. If he complained about poverty alleviation work in front of his leaders, he would be causing trouble for himself.
"If you have emotions, you just have emotions, and there's nothing special about it. You are so young, it's the time when you need to make friends, and you will get married soon. If you go to Shaoning City to help the poor at this time, wouldn't it be a waste of time? In fact, you Our leaders should also consider this issue."
"Director Zhou, it would be great if you could serve as a leader in our unit."
Zhou Tianhao shook his head, how could he go to the province to set up such a unit.
Simple numbersAfter a few words of conversation, Zhou Tianhao gave up asking about the situation. Judging from Zheng Qin's appearance, he probably didn't know anything. He went to poverty alleviation in August, and it's only September now. What can he know? I'm afraid he doesn't even know the basic situation. , just to kill time.
Soon, the passenger opposite Zhou Tianhao also arrived. He was an old man in his fifties. He looked very tired. Behind the old man, there was a young man who looked a little depressed.
Zheng Qin quickly stood up. It would be bad if he continued to sit down when someone came.
Zhou Tianhao also stood up and asked Zheng Qin to sit next to him. He could just sit on the seat on the right.
The old man smiled reluctantly at Zheng Qin. No one could keep a straight face when facing a beautiful woman.
The old man and the young man sat together, and they sighed respectively. It was obvious that they had encountered some trouble.
The train started, and the conductor came quickly to exchange tickets.
Zheng Qin did not leave. Although she knew that Zhou Tianhao was the leader, he was not the leader of her unit, so she did not have so much fear. Besides, it was also very pleasant to take the train and meet acquaintances, at least not too much. feel lonely.
Soon, like magic, Zheng Qin took out a lot of snacks from his backpack, including sunflowers, cakes, cookies, apples, etc., and handed them to Zhou Tianhao. Zhou Tianhao shook his head with a smile. He had no interest in these snacks. Interests, these are all reserved for girls. My daughter also likes to eat snacks. After following her grandma, she almost never stopped eating snacks.
The old people and young people opposite also took out instant noodles from their bags.
Zhou Tianhao was a little surprised. It was still morning time, so why were the two of them eating instant noodles? There were many breakfast shops outside the train station. Just having breakfast would solve the problem.
After a few hours of traveling, it was impossible to do anything, so he smiled and spoke to the two of them.
¡°It¡¯s better to have some breakfast in the morning, there will be some on the train later.¡±
Before the two of them had time to speak, Zheng Qin spoke.
"The food on the train is not delicious and very expensive. I ate on the train last time and I never want to eat on the train again."
Perhaps influenced by Zheng Qin, the old man spoke.
¡°I don¡¯t have time to take care of breakfast. I went to the provincial capital to do some errands and will be back soon.¡±
? Judging from the looks of the two of them, things must have not been done well, and they are not in a good mood.
"So that's it. Are you planning to go back somewhere?"
"You went back to Shaoning City. Where were you going?"
"We are all going to Shaoning City."
"Judging from the looks of you and this girl, you must be working in the provincial capital."
Zhou Tianhao nodded and said nothing. Zheng Qin was about to speak, but when he saw that Zhou Tianhao had not spoken, he did not speak. The young people next to the old man couldn't help but speak when they heard Zhou Tianhao say this.
"Hmph, some leaders in Shaoning City are really shameful and bully others. You all work in the provincial capital, so you should take care of these things."
The old man glared at the young man, turned to Zhou Tianhao, smiled and spoke.
"This is my nephew. Don't listen to his nonsense. We didn't handle things well and he was in a bad mood. He's just talking nonsense."
Although Zhou Tianhao had a smile on his face, he was already analyzing the identities of these two people. Judging from their clothes, their lives should be pretty good. They could sit and lie down, not just for sleeping. They obviously had certain identities. But they are definitely not staff of the administrative unit. The two of them went to the provincial capital to do things and couldn't get it done. They must have needed help. Being able to go directly to the provincial capital to do things must have some relationship. The greatest possibility is that the two of them are doing this. For business people, if you encounter difficulties while doing business, and young people still complain like this, then you are in trouble, or you are being embarrassed by the government department.
This kind of thing is not unusual.
The reborn Zhou Tianhao understood the situation very well. In the past, Zhou Tianhao would not have spoken at this point in the conversation, but the situation is different now. He is already the acting mayor of Shaoning City, and is involved in Shaoning City. He needs to understand and care about things. After taking office, it is difficult for him to understand the real situation. The reports of cadres will definitely not talk about bureaucratic issues. Only from these ordinary people can he understand actual situation.
"Old man, if you have anything to do, you can tell me. Anyway, there is nothing much to do along the way. Just listen to stories."
The old man looked at Zhou Tianhao and Zheng Qin, sighed, and hesitated a little, not knowing whether to say something or not. The young man couldn't help it and was about to speak.The old man glared at the young man again and asked the young man to make instant noodles.
The young man stood up reluctantly, picked up two buckets of instant noodles, and passed.
"Old man, your nephew is very obedient. He does whatever he is told. There are very few young people nowadays who can be so obedient."
"My nephew follows me to do things. How can I do it if I don't listen? Today's young people are indeed a bit difficult to control, but young people have flexible minds and are much better than me."
After the old man said this, he looked at Zhou Tianhao and Zheng Qin. According to his judgment, Zheng Qin must be a young girl. Zhou Tianhao is also young, but his temperament is very different. It seems that he is not simply young. people. (To be continued)
