"By the way, Dad, how is the efficiency of your factory now?" Chen Jin remembers that the Xinmei County Agricultural Machinery Factory went bankrupt in less than two thousand years, less than two years ago.
"What else? Now half of the people in their factory have been laid off. Your dad is a veteran employee and has good skills. He finally stayed, but he can only get 30% off his salary every month." Wu Xuemei, who was eating next to him, took the lead. Said.
"Oh! Now, most of the big factories in the county are not doing well. Chemical factories and leather factories have stopped production long ago, and employees only have more than 100 yuan a month for living expenses. Although our factory has not completely stopped production, the orders are also It's getting less and less, I think it will be sooner or later. If it weren't for your mother's treatment in the hospital, you would go to work again, and you still don't know how to live the rest of the day." Chen Xingbang sighed.
"Okay, the current climate is like this. The country is left alone. What can the common people do? You are already fifty-five this year. I think you can calculate it in advance. According to your working age, your future retirement salary will not be 30% off the current salary. Less." Wu Xuemei said.
Chen Xingbang shook his head, sighed in anguish, and drank the wine in the glass.
"Dad, I think Mom is right. You have worked so hard all your life. It is better to retire early and enjoy the good fortune early." Chen Jin said while pouring the wine while comforting.
Chen Jin knew in his heart that his father, Chen Xingbang, entered the factory at the age of 16, and now he has worked in the agricultural machinery factory for nearly forty years. He has a deep affection for the factory and it is difficult to leave him for a while.
"If you really can't stay idle after retiring early, should I tell my brother, you go to his factory to help? Your skills are good, besides, everyone is your own..." Wu Xuemei looked at her husband , Said hesitantly.
Before Wu Xuemei could finish her words, Chen Xingbang patted the chopsticks on the table: "Stop talking, I will never go to your brother's factory."
Chen Xingbang was rarely mad, and was immediately suppressed by Wu Xuemei, and slapped the table heavily, "What are you up to? I'm not discussing it with you yet. Go if you want to go, or pull it down if you don't want to go. I see you now. They are all good at it."
Wu Xuemei became angry, and Chen Xingbang's momentum of the big man who had just emerged was instantly suppressed: "I didn't get angry at you again, what are you in a hurry. Your brother's place I will never go anyway."
Chen Jin smiled bitterly and shook his head, and quickly persuaded: "Mom, don't be angry. Dad isn't angry with you, you don't know the relationship between him and uncle. However, it is also said that uncle can treat my dad like this. The honest man provokes "hairy", and there is something wrong with him. Forget it, let's not talk about it. Dad, come, let's go."
Chen Jin has an uncle named Wu Haiqiang, who opened a private lifting equipment factory more than ten years ago and was one of the first people in Xinmei County to become rich. Chen Jin knew from an early age that his uncle had nothing to do with his father. Chen Jin didn't know the specific reason until later. Although his mother was the adopted daughter of the Wu family, because the Wu family had no daughter but only a son, she had always loved her very much. At that time, my father’s family was poor, and he was six years older than his mother. The Wu family did not agree to the marriage of the two at all. Later, it was his mother who insisted on marrying his father. The uncle Wu Haiqiang, who always loved his sister, has always looked down on his father Chen Xingbang, thinking that his sister has lost money by marrying Chen Xingbang. Especially after his fortune, even more so. Although my dad is an honest person, he has strong self-esteem. He can tolerate his mother's arrogance to him, but he can't stand his uncle's cynicism, so that the relationship between the two is getting worse and worse. However, fortunately, my uncle treated my mother, myself and my sister very well. The two families often moved around during the holidays, but the father and uncle did not meet each other. It's not easy to keep my mother in the middle, and the two will always make trouble when they mention it.
Although Chen Jin was a little embarrassed for his father, he was a junior after all, and couldn't control the grievances between the elders, so he secretly sighed: "Every family has scriptures that are hard to recite!"
In order to adapt to the current work life as soon as possible, Chen Jin did not rest at home for a few more days, and went to work early the next day.
Xinmei County is not large. Dongmen Road, Ximen Road, Nanmen Road, and Beimen Road outline the entire county, and together with Jiefang Road in the north and south and Renmin Road in the east and west, they form a three-vertical and three-horizontal pattern. Jiefang Road is the busiest commercial street, and most of the "government" departments are concentrated on Renmin Road.
The Transportation Bureau is located at the intersection of Renmin Road and Dongmen Road, just half the county seat from Beimen Road and Ximen Road Chen Jin's home. Chen Jin, who left the house twenty minutes early, leisurely stepped on his bicycle along Ximen Road and Renmin Road to his unit.
Although it is the morning rush hour for work, the small county town at this time is far from the irritability that followed. On the road, there are crisp bicycle bells, the sound of Xiao Mulan's horns, greetings between acquaintances, hawkers chanting, and occasional noises. With the sound of car horns, the air is much cleaner than in the future. Chen Jin enjoys all this very much. Living in such a small county may be a little poor in material, but it is better than quiet, slow pace, and no pressure.
Chen Jin rode for fifteen minutes in the original ten-minute bike ride. Arrived at the entrance of the Transportation Bureau, just when everyone arrived at the unit. When Chen Jin appeared at the gate, everyone looked at him with surprise. He was secretly taken away for investigation by the prosecutor’s office, and he was able to retreat all over his body. The rumored news circulated in all aspects made Chen Jin become the Bureau of Transportation and even the Bureau of Transportation in the past two days. A topical figure in the "government" department of Xinmei County.
"Chairman Chen, early!"
"Chairman Chen, hello!"...
Colleagues stepped forward to greet Chen Jin. It is so practical in the officialdom. If Chen Jin loses power or is removed from office, people will never be so enthusiastic. The relationship between Chen Jin and the county governor Wang Peilin is not news for a long time, but a few days ago, the deputy secretary of the county party committee Wang Jinliang came to the Bureau of Transportation to investigate. People with a discerning eye knew the relationship at a glance. Perhaps the director Xu Yungen did not have such a big face, and naturally cited The icing on the cake from my colleagues.
"Section Chief, you are back." With a shout of surprise, a short but very plump young woman in her twenties ran over. Although I still wear a lot of clothes in the current season, I can still taste the waves of this woman.
"Liu Jia, come here so early today!" Chen Jin said with a smile.
Liu Jia, the daughter of the deputy county magistrate Liu Haitao, a capital construction clerk, joined the Transportation Bureau with Chen Jin after graduating from a junior college two years ago. He has a good relationship with Chen Jin, except that he is usually lazy and is often late for work. Chen Jin doesn’t care much. As a matter of fact, the "government" unit has always been relatively lazy in work style. The class sisters who enter the unit together can take care of them. Just take care. Secondly, Liu Jia is the daughter of Deputy County Mayor Liu. Although the County Mayor Liu Fu is not the Deputy County Mayor Liu, who is not his executive, he is ranked last, and he is in charge of Education, Science, Culture, and Health. However, the deputy mayor is still the deputy head of the county after all. Children must of course be taken care of.
"It's not that Zhang Jian. You didn't come to work during this time. He really regards himself as a section chief. This is not to emphasize the work discipline these days. First declare that I am not afraid of him, I just can't lose it. Pick up this person. You didn't see him look like a villain, you just got angry when you saw it." Liu Jia said with a dissatisfied expression.
"Hey! I haven't emphasized work discipline less before. Why haven't you seen you so active?" Chen Jin smiled.
Liu Jia's face blushed slightly: "Who told us to have a good relationship? Don't forget that we are comrades in the unit together."
Just as the two were talking and laughing towards the office building, an Audi 100 slowly drove into the gate and stopped in front of the building. Seeing the car coming in, the staff who was walking into the building stopped automatically and paid attention to the middle-aged man who came out of the car.
"Hello Chief!" Everyone greeted respectfully.
Today, Xu Yungen, the director of the Transportation Bureau, looked a little worried. In the face of everyone's respect, he did not nod and smile as usual, but just nodded slightly and walked a little hurriedly.
"Xu Ju, good morning!" Chen Jin also stopped and shouted with a smile on his face.
Xu Yungen stopped, watching Chen Jin's gaze somewhat complicated, nodded, barely a smile on his staid face: "Xiao Chen, come to the office with me."
"Okay, Xu Ju." Chen Jin responded quickly.
Step by step, he followed Xu Yungen to the director's office on the third floor. Entering the office, Xu Yungen's expression seemed naturally softer: "Xiao Chen, sit down."
When Xu Yungen greeted Chen Jin to sit down, he personally wanted to make tea for Chen Jin.
"Xu Ju, I'll come, I'll come." Chen Jin hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the tea caddy in Xu Yungen's hand. He picked up Xu Yungen's tea cup, scalded it with boiling water, then made tea, and put it in Xu Yungen's hand: " Xu Ju, you drink tea." Then he poured himself a cup of tea with a "sex" cup.
Xu Yungen nodded secretly, setting aside the relationship between Chen Jin and the county magistrate Wang Peilin, he was definitely a young cadre who could be cultivated by his abilities. At the same time, he secretly regretted that such a young cadre was not a fellow traveler with him.
Before Chen Jin was secretly taken away for investigation, Ding Chunming greeted him in advance. It was a pity that Xu Yungen would become a victim of a power struggle. Unexpectedly, Chen Jin would retreat after two days and nights in the procuratorate. . This made Xu Yungen's understanding of Chen Jin deeper, and he was even a little jealous of his political enemy Zhao Jiancheng's relationship with him.
"Xiao Chen, are you done with your family affairs?" Xu Yungen asked with a smile after Chen Jin sat down.
Chen Jin was stunned, and immediately relieved that he was secretly taken away by the procuratorate for investigation this time. Since he had not filed a case, he could not put it on the table.
"It's all over. I came to work without worrying about the work in the bureau." Facing Xu Yungen's hypocritical greetings, Chen Jin was disgusted, but he was helpless, knowing that he had been treated illegally, or even persecution. , But you can't make sense at all, unless your strength is strong enough. Therefore, on the surface, Chen Jin only treated this incident as if it had never happened before, and maintained due respect to the leader in front of Xu Yungen.
"Okay, it's great that you can come back to work in time. The top priority in the bureau now is the construction of Shixin Road. To get rich, build the road first. The Shixin Road project is related to the future development of our Xinmei. The leaders of the government have paid great attention to it, and the city bureau is also urging us to start construction as soon as possible. Your Infrastructure Construction Department should catch this work as soon as possible and urge Changhua Construction Group to enter the site and start construction as soon as possible."
When Chen Jin heard Xu Yungen's words, he couldn't help but slander himself secretly. If it hadn't been for them, Shixin Road would have started construction. However, with a smile on his face, he nodded and said, "Okay, Xu Ju. We must catch this work as soon as possible."
