At the end of the year, the ministry agencies start to get busy, and the Comprehensive Planning Office is the same. Various plans for next year begin to be prepared, solicited opinions and revised. Often a plan requires several revisions before it is finally finalized. Now the work of the Comprehensive Planning Department is basically taken care of by Liu Mingqiang. Xiao Yuanhang does not interfere in specific affairs and only cares about some general matters, so he is relatively free.
On December 22, the Organization Department held a cadre meeting at the Northern Railway Transport Administration and announced the adjustments of several cadres in the Administration. In addition to the adjustment of two deputy department-level cadres in several other departments, it was announced that Xiao Yuanhang would no longer serve as the Comprehensive Planning Department. The director was replaced by deputy director Liu Mingqiang. At the same time, Wu Qiming, director of the Comprehensive Planning Office, was promoted to deputy director, and the director's position was taken over by the deputy director.
After the meeting, this round of cadre adjustments aroused great repercussions in the Comprehensive Planning Department. When Xiao Yuanhang first came to the Comprehensive Planning Department as director, Planning Section Chief Liu Mingqiang and Office Director Wu Qiming were closest to him. In just two years, they Much time passed, Liu Mingqiang became the director of the department, and Wu Qiming was promoted to deputy director, which surprised some people who were not optimistic about Xiao Yuanhang at first, and some even regretted it too late.
On the night when Xiao Yuanhang and Liu Mingqiang handed over, all the cadres from the Comprehensive Planning Office at home were called together for a dinner. One was to send off Director Xiao, and the other was to celebrate the promotions of Liu Mingqiang and Wu Qiming. All the cadres who were at home, whether they were dissatisfied or had objections, were present, and the banquet was also very lively, and the drinks lasted until after 11 o'clock in the evening.
Xiao Yuanhang has officially entered the work mode of deputy director. Although he is in charge of three divisions, they are all of a guidance and inspection nature. In addition to more meetings, the specific work is to review documents, urge the divisions in charge to implement various tasks, and complete the work. Provide guidance and supervision according to the situation.
The Spring Festival in 1995 was relatively early. January 30th is the 30th day of the Lunar New Year, and January 31st is the first day of the Lunar New Year. There is no weekend holiday this year. There are three days off during the Spring Festival, plus two consecutive Sundays, a total of five days, from the first day of the Lunar New Year to the Lunar New Year. Five breaks. The Northern Railway Transport Administration now has six leadership team members. Everyone knows that Xiao Yuanhang's family belongs to Guhe and he will go back to Guhe for the Spring Festival. Therefore, the Spring Festival duty is contracted by five other people, one person for one day, so that Xiao Yuanhang can go home and celebrate the New Year with peace of mind.
There are still 5 days left before the Spring Festival. Wu Chuanqi called Xiao Yuanhang to his office, handed him a cigarette and lit it before saying: "Director Xiao, if you go home for the Spring Festival this year, why not take your family leave together, so that you can stay at home for a while?" In about two months, you have been working in the bureau for more than two years and have not taken a single family leave. If something happens again in the future, the leave you take this time will be used to make up for last year's family leave. This year's family leave will be kept first. "
In Wu Chuanqiu, Xiao Yuanhang will not be able to work at the Northern Railway Administration for much longer. He has been with the Administration for nearly two and a half years. The deputy director was also promoted. There is not much room for further promotion. It depends on seniority. Compared with the other deputy directors, his qualifications are undoubtedly the least. If you want to be the director for ten or eight years, don't even think about it. Even if there is someone above. Minister Chang was covered. You have to follow the agency's rules, not to mention, at this level. Everyone has a great relationship. Therefore, it is very likely that he will be transferred to the Railway Bureau this year to serve. It was unlikely that he would be able to stay in the ministry, so he was advised to take his family leave together.
Xiao Yuanhang smiled and said: "Director, this is what you said, so I won't be polite!"
Wu Chuanqi smiled and said: "I didn't want you to be grateful at first. I just saw that you have been very tired in the past two years, so I just want to express my condolences to you."
Xiao Yuanhang smiled and said, "Thank you, Director, for your kindness!"
Wu Chuanqi said: "Thank you. There is no need for you to be on duty during the Spring Festival this year. You can go back and arrange your work. You can leave tomorrow night. Just come back to work on March 1st."
Xiao Yuanhang said: "Thank you again, Director!"
Xiao Yuanhang returned to his office and asked the directors in charge of the three divisions to arrange work, and told them his contact information in Furukawa. If there was something urgent, they could call him and go home to pack their luggage in the afternoon. He also called Wei Wei and asked her when she could return to Furukawa.
Wei Wei told Xiao Yuanhang that she was in Liaocheng and would return to Furukawa after checking the annual financial situation of the Liaocheng branch, which would be tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Xiao Yuanhang heard this and said that he would be able to go to Furukawa at noon tomorrow and wait for her at home.
Before getting on the train in the evening, he called Xiaoqiang. Today he took the train from Beijing to Songjiang. Although he didn't recognize the young female conductor, he was very enthusiastic after seeing Xiao Yuanhang's ticket and told Xiao Yuanhang: "We Duan Chang Su mentioned you and asked me to provide good reception and service when I meet you in the car."
"Su Duan Zhang?" Xiao Yuanhang couldn't help but was startled when he heard this, and immediately realized that it might be that Su Yuehua has been promoted to deputy section chief, so he asked: "Sister Su has been promoted to deputy section chief?"
The female driver smiled and said: "Yes, I mentioned it in November last year."??Deputy section chief in charge of passenger transportation! "
Xiao Yuanhang asked the female conductor for the phone number of Su Yuehua¡¯s office, and planned to call her to congratulate her when he got home. The female train driver was very enthusiastic and provided considerate service along the way. He arrived at Furukawa on time the next day. He didn¡¯t tell anyone when he returned home this time. He only asked Xiaoqiang to pick him up at the station. Even though the passenger duty director recognized him when he got off the train, he After saying a few words, Ye and Xiaoqiang left the station together.
After Tang Zhenglin learned that Xiao Yuanhang was back, he immediately called him at his home and asked if Xiao Yuanhang had time at night and wanted to treat him to a drink. Xiao Yuanhang said: "Zheng Lin, I just got home and haven't had time to take a breath. Why are you so anxious about drinking? This time I'll even take a break to visit relatives. I won't go back to work until March. I have plenty of time. Let's contact you someday."
Tang Zhenglin said: "By the way, Director Xiao, there is one more thing. There was a letter mailed to you from the United States a week ago. I have been keeping it for you. I will send someone to deliver it to you later."
A letter from the United States? Xiao Yuanhang couldn't help but feel excited after hearing this. He had already realized that this must be a letter from Jiang Shan to him. Since Jiang Shan returned to the United States to settle down, he could still get through her phone calls at first, but then he couldn't get through to her. , a few years passed without any news at all.
"Okay, send it to me quickly!" Xiao Yuanhang said hurriedly, not caring about being polite to Tang Zhenglin.
In less than half an hour, a young man from the station office delivered the letter to Xiao Yuanhang. Xiao Yuanhang casually stuffed him with a box of soft Chinese cigarettes. After sending the young man away, he hurried upstairs to his room to open the envelope. Looked up.
This letter was indeed written by Jiang Shan to him. The content was very simple. She said that she was going home to visit relatives during the Spring Festival this year and hoped to have time to meet him. The new address and phone number of her former parents' home were enclosed with the letter. Xiao Yuanhang's heart suddenly felt like grass was growing, and he began to look forward to it eagerly.
