Chapter 2421
Zhao Desan nodded in understanding, so he drove her back to the district and sent her all the way to the building where she rented. An ordinary person would definitely invite someone up for a sit-down out of etiquette, but perhaps due to not fully trusting Zhao Desan yet, Tong Xiaoli just said "Thank you" with a smile and turned to walk quickly into the building.
Damn it! Too heartless! Not having been invited up for a cup of tea, Zhao Desan muttered with some dissatisfaction in his heart, then turned the car around, put it in gear, stepped on the gas, and drove away along the way he came. Driving and driving, Zhao Desan suddenly realized a problem: if he drove the car back from the district to Su Qing's home to sleep at night, it would take at least forty minutes in the absence of traffic jams. It was better at this hour; the night was quiet, and there were no cars on the road. But it would be miserable to return to work in the morning. Thinking it was so troublesome, he decided to forget it. But not returning to Su Qing's home to sleep, Zhao Desan had only been busy familiarizing himself with the situation of the District Construction Committee all day and had forgotten to find a place to live for himself for a while. Driving the car aimlessly around the development zone for a while, he finally found a newly opened budget hotel a few streets away from the unit. After parking and asking inside, a single room with a large bed was only 60 yuan a night. When asked why it was so cheap, the front desk staff told Zhao Desan that there were too few people in the Chanba Development Zone, especially at night, except for people on construction sites, the streets were cold and clear like a dead city. In order to attract customers, the accommodation fee was specially adjusted to such a low price. After understanding the reason, Zhao Desan suddenly felt that the task on his shoulders was very heavy, and the work of the District Construction Committee still had a long way to go. He didn't know when this hotel would be full every night, which would mean that the development of the development zone was very effective.
Thinking that renting a house wasn't such a simple matter, and that he had just arrived in the district, it was impossible to always occupy working hours to find a house in the district. Combining his own actual situation, Zhao Desan felt that it would take at least a week to find a house he was satisfied with. Thus, he paid the accommodation fee for a week in one breath, which added up to less than five hundred yuan. Hearing that Zhao Desan wanted to stay for a week, the cashier, who had been indifferent to him, immediately had eyes that glowed. Seeing Zhao Desan as if she had seen gold, she enthusiastically handled the accommodation procedures for him and led him all the way to the room.
Today was his first day at work in the district. Perhaps his nerves were too tight; he had a meeting in the morning, worked wholeheartedly for an afternoon, and drank a lot of wine at night. As soon as he entered the room and closed the door, Zhao Desan lay flat on the bed, preparing to relax, take a hot bath, and have a good sleep, and then welcome a new day full of energy tomorrow. For him, today couldn't be considered work in the true sense because he had just arrived in the district. Tomorrow morning, he would truly be changing his identity and dealing with new challenges.
After lying on the bed, Zhao Desan's mind recalled the things he had experienced today. He felt that the meeting today was very effective. If he hadn't flared up at the meeting and initially established his prestige, perhaps the leaders at the department level and above wouldn't have come so neatly to the dinner tonight. And at the dinner tonight, he used the name of the District Committee centered on District Mayor Wu to secretly put pressure on the 'veteran group' of the District Construction Committee headed by Gao Haiping, the Deputy Director and Deputy Secretary of the Party Group. Judging from the actions of those old slickers at the wine table who took the initiative to toast him, Zhao Desan felt that the arrangements for these two days were particularly appropriate, and the goals given for each thing were basically completed. Starting tomorrow morning, he needed to focus his energy on two aspects: first, continue to understand and grasp the main work tasks of the District Construction Committee, striving to grasp the overall situation as soon as possible, open up the situation, and carry out work; second, always pay attention to everyone's specific performance during the work style rectification week, and deal with those who ignore discipline and treat work systems as child's play with strict punishment, serving as a warning to others and killing one to warn a hundred. After completing these two things and truly establishing his prestige in the new unit, he would then carry out a series of reforms in his work with great vigor, working with goals and priorities. In this quiet place at night, Zhao Desan lay on the bed alone, his mind suddenly particularly clear. Facing the new environment and new post, what he should do and how he should do it already had a prototype in his mind.
Lying on the bed for a full half hour, Zhao Desan really felt a bit tired, so he climbed up from the bed, stripped naked in three or two strokes, lowered his head and glanced at the thing he was proud of as a man and that women couldn't put down, smiled triumphantly, and walked into the bathroom to take a bath.
When the hot water poured down from his head, Zhao Desan's thoughts once again fell into memories, recalling those unforgettable things he had experienced in the two-plus years at the Provincial Construction Committee. Those past events flashed before his eyes one by one like a movie. Coming here from the Provincial Construction Committee was another qualitative leap in his official career, and he had also escaped from Zheng Tulu's control. He should have felt excited, but when he calmed down and thought carefully now, having just left that place full of right and wrong where he had worked for more than two years, he suddenly missed it a bit. He missed those carefree days, missed the days of fighting with that old thing Zheng Tulu, and missed even more the days of emotional entanglements with the three beautiful young women, Lan Mei, He Liping, and Jia Wanli. Coming here, losing his old opponent, and leaving the women he had emotional entanglements with, everything had to start from the heart. Although he missed the previous work environment a bit, for him, being promoted directly from a deputy director to the position of Director of the District Construction Committee was a big step, which was a paving stone for moving up in the future. This new post was even more of a challenge for him. He wouldn't miss this opportunity to show himself. Once he performed and achieved results that satisfied the superior leaders on this platform, the future would be bright.
Zhao Desan thought about it with a thousand thoughts while taking a hot bath unhurriedly.
Just as he was about to finish his bath, his phone rang from outside the bathroom. The song "I Want to Have a Home" had been singing for more than half, and Zhao Desan heard it. He hurriedly took a towel from the shelf to wipe his wet hair, opened the bathroom door with confusion, walked quickly to the bed, picked up his pants, took out his phone, and saw a strange number on the screen.
Zhao Desan frowned slightly, guessing who was calling with a confused face, pressed the answer button, put the phone to his ear, and said politely: "Hello! May I ask who this is?"
As soon as Zhao Desan finished asking, Jin Lulu's fierce voice came from the other side: "Zhao Desan, right? Have you found out the identity of the guy who crashed the car?"
"Oh." Although Zhao Desan only knew the information that Sun Maomao was a second-generation official, he still told Jin Lulu everything one by one.
"Good, I finally caught him! You bastard, let's see where you run this time!" Jin Lulu hummed, "Since I know the identity of that grandson, let's see how those unreliable police officers can stall!"
"Lulu, that kid is a second-generation official, and his father has some power in his hands. Besides, we don't know which unit leader his father is, so it's very troublesome to find him. I advise you not to waste your effort." Zhao Desan tactfully told this girl with a straightforward temper not to get entangled if it wasn't a big deal. In Zhao Desan's view, since that Sun Maomao could make 'Golden Leopard', the boss under Linbei District, unable to do anything to him, one could imagine that the kid's background was very deep. Even he hadn't thought of a way now, so how could an ordinary girl handle it?
Jin Lulu hummed disdainfully twice and said: "As long as I know who his father is, I will definitely not spare him!"
Hearing that this beautiful girl who called herself 'Laozi' didn't intend to let that matter go, Zhao Desan finally couldn't help but advise her: "Lulu, I advise you to forget it. Just consider yourself unlucky. Your Chevrolet doesn't have any big problems, so just fix it yourself. I drove my friend's Mercedes and it was smashed like that by that grandson, so I have to admit I'm unlucky and pay for the repairs myself."
"You admit defeat, but I don't!" Unexpectedly, Jin Lulu didn't thank Zhao Desan for his well-intentioned advice, but instead retorted to him fiercely.
Jin Lulu's words choked Zhao Desan for a long time, unable to speak. He smiled helplessly and said: "Good, good, then go find him and see if he can compensate you for the loss."
Jin Lulu also realized that her straightforward words had hurt Zhao Desan's self-esteem, so she softened her tone slightly, changed the subject, and asked Zhao Desan: "By the way, Zhao Desan, what is that grandson's name?"
"Surname Sun, named Sun Maomao." Zhao Desan said truthfully.
"I thought his name was 'Grandson'! As long as I know that grandson's name, I have a way to find out his background!" Jin Lulu suddenly said a playful remark, which made Zhao Desan laugh 'haha' inadvertently. Just as he was about to tell Jin Lulu that to deal with an extraordinary person like Sun Maomao, one must use extraordinary methods, he didn't expect that Jin Lulu, this fiery woman, had already hung up the phone.
