Chapter 91: Raking Grass and Hunting Rabbits
Hu Jiao heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that Chen Dadan lived up to his name. He was absolutely bold in employing people. Even his closest secretary was sent down. What did he have to worry about? He was quite honest.
"It's great to have Brother Qiu take action! Thank you, Secretary Chen!"
Chen Runsheng smiled and said, "Don't underestimate Qiu Quan because he's a secretary. He's a serious police officer. How about this? Instead of having two people over the same issue, your police chief will be transferred to the provincial department, and Qiu Quan will be the deputy secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission and the police chief."
Hu Jiao's mind worked rapidly, and he immediately understood what Chen Runsheng meant. There was no need to engage in further studies. He could just transfer Quan Youde away and appoint his personal secretary as the director of the Public Security Bureau. This would be a clear and open way to convey his attitude and his intention to Long Tong in a grand and majestic manner.
This point coincides with Hu Jiao's. Instead of secretly collecting evidence and being cautious, it is better to make a fuss. Anyway, Longtong is under the management of certain people and is likely to make small moves. It is estimated that there will be frequent accidents and many obstacles.
In addition, neither he nor Qiuquan are locals, so if they do big things, raise the right banner and create enough momentum, they can achieve success quickly.
I believe that in today's world, no one dares to go against the world. Even if someone wants to rebel, they don't have the strength to do so.
"With your support, we will definitely implement it and never let the leaders down!"
Chen Runsheng nodded. "You should unite with your comrades and not take the lead in everything. Especially comrades Yao Qisheng and Jiang Aihua, listen more to their opinions. By the way, tomorrow afternoon at five o'clock, you go to the Southwest Hotel. I will host a wedding banquet for you and Xiaoqiu there, and introduce you to the people from the Public Security Department."
Hu Jiao expressed his gratitude for this, but he was secretly unhappy in his heart. It would have been fine if Yao Qisheng, a very cunning man, did not give any prior notice. However, Jiang Aihua had always been known in Longtong as Zhao Mingfang's die-hard supporter, but now at this point, he only sent Jiang Yifan to hint at him.
You want to eat but are afraid of the heat. If you don't have the skills, don't take on the job.
After hearing Chen Runsheng's advice, Hu Jiao had basically ruled out Jiang Aihua in his mind. Needless to say, Yao Qisheng was probably the person designated by Chen Runsheng to be the successor to the top position.
Do you want to win in chaos?
Hu Jiao immediately dismissed the idea. What did Zhou Shengling's life or death have to do with him? Anyway, it was not his turn to be the mayor.
While Chen Runsheng's gaze was wandering, Hu Jiao said goodbye in time, and he also found it interesting. Secretary Chen's way of indicating the end of the conversation was different from most people. First, he did not raise his hand to look at his watch, second, he did not directly chase people away, and third, he did not stand up and serve tea.
When they came out, Qiu Quan was still with them. They didn't speak in the courtyard, but exchanged glances. When they reached the gate, Hu Jiao nodded gently, "Brother Qiu, I'll wait for you at the hotel."
Qiu Quan smiled and shook hands with Hu Jiao as they said goodbye. He had heard the rumor before and now after hearing Hu Jiao's words, he estimated that it would become a reality.
"I'll have to trouble Secretary Hu from now on. I'll go back and listen to Secretary Chen's instructions. I'll be there later."
When Hu Jiao walked to the car door, Lao Li had already started the car.
"I can't leave tomorrow. I heard you have a daughter in college? Well, I have nothing to do tomorrow, so I'll go see her."
Hu Jiao spoke lightly and Lao Li nodded. Having worked in the government for so many years, he could certainly understand what his leader meant. There was no need for Hu Jiao to tell him specifically. He would definitely keep his mouth shut about coming to meet the No. 1 provincial party committee member tonight.
When we returned to the hotel, it was almost twelve o'clock and Qiuquan finally arrived.
They took their seats politely. Hu Jiao was very emotional. "I heard that Brother Qiu came from Changshun with Secretary Chen?"
Qiu Quan nodded. "When I started working, I was a criminal police officer. Later, I was admitted to the Public Security University for further studies and was assigned to the Municipal Bureau Office. Five years ago, I was transferred to the Provincial Political and Legal Committee. As a result, I was noticed by Secretary Chen. It was all due to luck."
Hu Jiao was in a good mood . It seemed that Qiu Quan did not use his status as a close minister to suppress others. He seemed very humble. It was estimated that Chen Runsheng had warned him against it.
"We have to form a team this time, and the task is arduous. You and I are both from other places. Sigh... this job is not easy. Brother Qiu is a professional, do you have any specific ideas?"
Qiu Quan shook his head. "I don't have any specific ideas for now. Let's do what the leader wants. We'll just have to wait and see who will jump out and then make plans."
Hu Jiao nodded. "Catching rabbits by raking grass? Well, that's good. Let's try to see if we can make them lose their composure. If they are really as strong as steel, we can think of another way. In addition, I have a suggestion."
"Secretary, please arrange it. I will ensure its implementation!"
Hu Jiao waved his hand and said, "Brother Qiu, don't be so formal. After all, we are a family. Let's not talk nonsense. You are older than me, so you can call me Hu Jiao or Jiao Jiao."
Qiu Quan shook his head. "That won't work. It would be fine if we weren't in the same unit, but now, we can't break the rules."
Seeing Qiuquan's insistence, Hu Jiao didn't want to get entangled in the title. "I guess you can only act as the director first. The public security team can't be in chaos. I suggest two points. First, when you take office, you must make a big show. It would be best if the leaders of the Public Security Bureau or the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department come forward. Second, hold a large-scale training as soon as possible to organize the team, unite them, improve their quality, and set up discipline. I will come forward to coordinate with the police academy and strive to build a good team within one month."
Qiu Quan nodded as he listened. "It will probably come in handy in a month. Well, tomorrow we will ask the provincial department for two powerful instructors, and then find three top students with strong professional skills to join us."
It's a pleasure to talk to smart people, Hu Jiao sighed in his heart, he is worthy of being the number one secretary, and he has a background in criminal investigation, is quick-witted and meticulous, a natural material for public security work, and can also do a good job as a secretary.
It seems that Qiuquan is a real talent and a versatile one.
The two discussed and finalized many details, and it was already two o'clock in the morning before Qiuquan said goodbye and left.
Hu Jiao was not sleepy yet. He was on a higher floor. He looked at the night view of the provincial capital and sighed slightly. A storm was coming. Chen Runsheng's words echoed in his mind: to govern a place, one must first govern its people, and to govern people, one must first govern their hearts. Longtong was not only economically backward, but also inefficient in party and government work. The ideological style of cadres was also becoming more and more biased. Even the education system had such bizarre incidents, not to mention other key departments.
Some cadres are becoming more and more daring and their hands are reaching further and further. Does this have nothing to do with the main leading cadres?
I'm afraid this is the root cause.
Chen Runsheng vaguely reminded that Zhao Mingfang once worked as Wang Changzheng's secretary. Although the time was not long, he was highly appreciated by Mr. Wang, so he should pay attention to the methods and approaches.
Perhaps this is Chen Runsheng's original intention of proposing uprightness.
When dealing with these old revolutionaries and predecessors, we must adhere to principles and party spirit, not engage in any conspiracies or intrigues, and not attack or retaliate. The older generation hates this very much and has learned bloody lessons from it.
With his thoughts churning, Hu Jiao looked at the lights of the city. The outline of the city appeared in the lights, and suddenly one picture after another appeared. Hu Jiao was shocked. He was sure that this was not his impression.
It seems to be that inexplicable memory again. Things in the world really cannot be proven.
Those beautiful pop songs, those novel and strange objects, and one after another unheard-of fragments, such as harmony, the Internet bubble, the popularization of computers, high-tech, and various functions of mobile phones.
Of course, there are also vulgar and obscene pornographic jokes, AV, etc. The cunning, selfish ideas, and ridiculous thoughts of the gangsters who love to take advantage of small gains.
The image that just triggered Hu Jiao's mind came from somewhere. The city became more and more beautiful, the streets became wider and wider, the housing prices became higher and higher, jobs became harder and harder to find, and college students were everywhere.
Although most of the images came from TV, movies and computers, and the theories drawn from the news seemed disorganized, Hu Jiao was still able to judge something valuable from them after sorting them out.
The main topics in the future will be conservation, environmental protection, green economy, etc.
Take the provincial capital Fufeng City as an example. The planning is unreasonable, and many old state-owned industrial enterprises are located in the city center, causing serious pollution.
If I were to go by the fragments in my memory, it would have certainly gone through demolition and relocation, repeated planning, and reconstruction.
No wonder, judging from the current development of the situation, many places are advocating "more, faster, better, louder."
It means high investment, high output, quick results, quick launch, good production capacity, good political achievements, a well-known brand, and a loud reputation.
This will inevitably lead to a lot of energy waste and investment waste.
However, political achievements can be reflected in this, and the financial figures will become more and more attractive. For example, there is a joke in my mind: a city planned an underground drainage channel. The previous mayor was halfway through the plan and was transferred. The successor took a look and found that the plan was unreasonable and too large, so he rebuilt it. When the mayor was transferred, the third mayor came and found that it was too small, so he dug it up and expanded it.
A sewer system in foreign cities can be used for hundreds of years. In comparison, there is so much more that can be improved and learned.
Just as Chen Runsheng said, to govern the land, one must first govern the people, and to govern people, one must first govern their hearts.
With the public spirit of doing practical things for the masses, the conscience of serving as an official, the humility of being good at learning and thinking, and the intention of long-term planning and development, it will be a blessing for the entire Chinese nation.
The next day, Hu Jiao slept until almost noon. He slept comfortably, even a little drowsy, when he suddenly woke up with a start. He had turned off his cell phone last night, and it was too late and he didn't tell Li Juan that he would not go back.
He quickly turned on the phone and answered Li Juan's call. Li Juan was so angry that she kept cursing. She had taken her son to the airport early in the morning to wait for someone, but ended up getting a call. Hu Jiao explained again and again, and only then did he reluctantly persuade Li Juan.
After having a quick bite in the hotel's restaurant, Hu Jiao thought that he had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he might as well report to Shen Yifu, the provincial party committee member, on his work.
