Chapter 91: Chance Encounter in the Park

  "Unexpectedly, Xiao Jianzhong said this, Ye Pingyu hastily said: "What nonsense are you talking about? She will eat me? I am a man!"

  Xiao Jianzhong laughed and said, "What's wrong with you being a man? Do you think women can't handle you? Women like Lin Lei and our department head are just like men when they see a pretty face - they become immobile. Do you think only men are lustful?"

  Ye Pingyu had never heard of such a thing before and asked: "Is your department head also that kind of lustful woman?"

  Xiao Jianzhong chuckled and said, "You don't know this, but everyone in the county committee office knows that our department head is very close to Cui Xinhua. Moreover, all the young newcomers in our department have been called into her office alone, who knows what for? She's quite flirtatious!"

  Ye Pingyu suddenly stood up and asked: "So to say, when you were transferred to the county committee office, you were also secretly ruled by her? You little boy's luck is not shallow!"

  Xiao Jianzhong's face turned red as he said, "I don't have that kind of good fortune. She probably looks down on me. It's just that she called me to her office alone once, but it wasn't for that kind of thing, rather I got scolded. And she has a relative relationship with Zhao Xue, ever since I broke up with Zhao Xue, she's been giving me attitude every day. Luckily you were transferred here, and only then did her attitude change somewhat!"

  When he heard this, Ye Pingyu smiled and said: "You look like a pretty boy too, why would I not appreciate you? I think these are all rumors spread by others. Seeing that someone is good-looking and capable, they assume that person must have relied on the backdoor to get ahead, and then go and sabotage others. What kind of people are these!"

  "Hey Pingyu, don't be so naive, in the county committee office, everyone will use any means to get ahead. If you're going to be so innocent, I'm worried you won't last long there!" Xiao Jianzhong, thinking he's been around the block a few times, spoke to Ye Pingyu like an older brother.

  Ye Pingyu smiled slightly and said, "There's originally nothing in the world, but mediocrities disturb themselves. Some things are fine to know, but don't learn from them. I'll just do my own job well. They have their ways, let them be, but they can't target me. If they target me, I won't be polite either!"

  Seeing Ye Pingyu's confident expression, Xiao Jianzhong suddenly felt that he was inferior to Ye Pingyu in terms of breadth of vision and momentum. He didn't know where the problem lay, as he had always had an advantage over Ye Pingyu before, but now why did it become like this?

  What has he been thinking about all day? He's thought of a lot of nonsense, but as for actual work, he hasn't put in much effort. All his energy has gone into useless things.

  "Pingyu, I should learn from you more in the future. You've become the secretary of the county party committee now, take care of me!" Xiao Jianzhong said to Ye Pingyu after some thought.

  Ye Pingyu smiled and said, "I just arrived here and still need your care, but I think we are classmates, so saying 'care' is a bit too formal. Let's just take care of each other from now on!"

  The next day, Ye Pingyu got up early, while Xiao Jianzhong was still snoring loudly. He had a habit of getting up early and going for a run outside to exercise his body, which he had developed since college.

  Coming out of the county committee's compound, I ran along the urban road. There were already many pedestrians on the road in the morning, and their pace seemed to be quite hasty. Some small food stalls were set up everywhere, and after finishing my run, I went to have some breakfast.

  He was running at his usual pace when he suddenly thought of a nearby park that he had never run to before, so why not go there today?

  As soon as he thought of this, he quickened his pace and ran there. He had just run into the park not far away when he heard a somewhat familiar voice coming from beside him: "Director Ye, what a coincidence, you're also out for a run?"

  As he turned his head to the sound, things were indeed very coincidental. Standing in front of him was Lin Lei, with whom he had drunk together last night! At this time, Lin Lei was wearing a tight-fitting sportswear, her hair was tied up high and bundled up, her figure was extremely good, really curvaceous, attracting the attention of many morning exercisers nearby.

  "Director Lin, you're also out for a morning exercise?" Ye Pingyu was extremely surprised, his eyes looking at her as he asked.

  Lin Lei smiled and said: "I usually come here for morning exercise in the morning, is this your first time coming here?"

  Ye Pingyu laughed and said: "It's the first time, I just started working at the county committee office, I didn't know where there was a place for morning exercise, suddenly thought of this place, ran over, really didn't expect to run into you!"

  Lin Le glanced at Ye Pingyu and smiled: "This shows that we have a fate!"

  As soon as he heard her say this, Ye Pingyu's whole body felt a little numb. Xiao Jianzhong was right, this woman seemed to have a crush on him and wanted to take advantage of him.

  Although I was on my guard, one aspect of it was politeness, and the other was that this woman was too attractive, and her attractiveness was not just ordinary love between men and women, but had a flavor of sensuality, like a drug that makes people irresistible.

  As Lin Lei ran forward with Ye Pingyu, she quietly moved closer to him, and when Ye Pingyu noticed this, his heart started racing rapidly, unsure whether it was due to the running or her teasing.

  Anyway, this woman made him somewhat infatuated, looking at her running obediently by his side, he didn't notice that this woman was quite annoying for the time being, so let's just treat her as an ordinary friend.

  After finishing her run, Lin Lei called out to him to eat together at the snack stall. Ye Pingyu happened to want to have breakfast too, so he went with her to the nearby snack stall and ordered a bowl of congee and several fried dough sticks to start eating.

  Watching him eat with gusto, Lin Le couldn't help but smile, and the youthful-looking Ye Pingyu looked a bit like her own younger brother.

  After dinner, the two of them returned to their respective units for work. Ye Pingyu went back to the county committee office and continued with his usual work. Zhu Zichuan instructed him to write a research report on the investigation over the past few days.

  Don't just look at him often writing reports in the countryside, but when he arrives at the county committee, the boundary is different from that of the countryside. To write a good report, one must stand at the height of the whole county to write it, and the difficulty is extremely great.

  Zhu Zi Chuan handed over this arduous task to him, which is also a test for him to see if he has the ability to write a good research report.

  I organized the situation of the past few days and also sorted out the speech made by Zhu Zi Chuan during the investigation, clarifying his work ideas. Then I started thinking about how to write it. Actually, once you start writing, the difficulty is not that great. The key is to clarify your thoughts. Donglin County's economy is currently underdeveloped. After Zhu Zi Chuan arrived here, he must have wanted to achieve something. However, he knew that in order to achieve results, he couldn't rely on just himself. No matter how capable he was, there was no way for him to get the work done alone.

  So, to do a good job, the key is to have someone. As the county party secretary, apart from grasping major events in the county, it's about grasping personnel matters well. The power of personnel management is the most important power in his hands. Cadres all know that if they want to be an official, they should find the secretary, and if they want money, they should find the county magistrate. This is a conventional division of labor.

  However, through his experience in the countryside, he felt that some cadres not only had no development ideas but also liked to form cliques and gangs, becoming old foxes in official circles. They were difficult to deal with when it came to the masses, and their work attitude and spiritual outlook couldn't get the job done well.

  This is one aspect, he thinks that to write this into the report, in order to develop Donglin County well, we still need some cadres who are truly dedicated to serving the people, and need to liberate everyone's thinking, so that everyone has a good development path. We can't just sit in our own little well and observe the sky, only showing off within our own small territory, not knowing anything outside of it, and only waiting for instructions, then the economy will never be able to develop.

  He originally knew that Caolingzi Township was like this, but when he followed Zhu Zishen to investigate, he found that other towns were also like this. It seems that this is a universal problem. Gui Qixiang governed here, although his style was strong and he did some things, but the most fundamental things he didn't change, the cadres' thinking he didn't change, the cadres' style he didn't change much, the overall development plan is still in the old routine. This made Zhu Zishen, who had seen the world with Ping Yuan Chao, very dissatisfied.

  After Ping Yuan took office as the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, he began to do things according to his own ideas. The entire Qingyun City has entered a period of great development. He reads the Qingyun Daily every day, so he is also very clear about the dynamics of the city. Now that we need to write an investigation report, we must pay attention to this point as well.

  Ye Pingyu racked his brains for three days, hardly sleeping or eating, and even stopped his daily morning exercises. Lin Lei called him to ask why he hadn't gone to the park for a run, so he had to tell her the truth, which made Lin Lei very admiring of his work ethic - even if the leadership didn't appreciate it, that was their loss!

  After careful consideration, he finally started writing. He first summarized the research situation and the basic situation of the whole county, analyzed the existing problems, then analyzed the reasons for the problems, and after analyzing the reasons, he put forward some countermeasures and suggestions. Some of these countermeasures and suggestions were just expressions of Zhu Zi Chuan's views, and then he added some of his own personal thoughts. Anyway, this was just a research report, not a leader's speech, mixed with his own private goods, which would give Zhu Zi Chuan a new understanding of him.

  The report was written for a full ten pages, but in fact, such general reports can be done with three to five pages. However, as he wrote on, he became more and more inspired, and the more he wrote, the more he had to say. He put forward some opinions and suggestions on the construction of the cadre team, the transformation of thought and work style, the methods and ideas for liberating thought and accelerating development, as well as the overall development plan for the whole county, etc. After finishing writing, he prepared to hand it over to Zhu Zichuan's hands.
