Chapter 4412
Hearing the driver's words, Su Qing glanced sideways at Zhao Desan beside her. Zhao Desan raised his eyebrows slightly, widened his eyes, and looked innocent, which meant to say, Sister Su, you were the one who asked me to drink with Minister Wang, so don't blame me!
Just as they were talking about last night's events, Su Qing's phone rang. She took it out of her handbag and looked. It was really "speak of Cao Cao and Cao Cao arrives." Seeing the string of "8"s after the number, she knew it was Minister Wang calling. Su Qing hurriedly answered the phone and said with a smile, "Old Wang, hello!"
"Old Su, I asked the driver to pick you up. Have you gone to the airport yet?" Minister Wang's greeting came from the phone.
Su Qing hurriedly said with a smile, "I'm on the way. Thank you for your concern, Old Wang."
Old Wang laughed and said, "Not at all, not at all. Your old friend has come to Beijing, this is what I should do. By the way, your matter, the Organization Department will come up with a result as soon as possible in these two days. There should be no problem. Just wait for your promotion, haha..."
Hearing Old Wang say this, Su Qing immediately thanked him with a smile, "Then thank you so much, Old Wang. When you come to the local area to inspect work sometime, I will definitely treat you well."
Old Wang laughed and said, "Okay, when we meet next time, Old Su, you will be Governor Su, haha..."
After the two chatted on the phone for a while, they hung up. Zhao Desan saw that Sister Su's expression clearly carried a happy smile and knew that her matter had basically been handled, and now she was just waiting for the central government to issue the document.
It was already past nine o'clock in the evening when they flew back to Xijing from the Capital Airport. Su Qing had made a phone call before getting on the plane. After getting off the plane, a driver from the Provincial Party Committee's driver class was already waiting for them outside the airport. Therefore, they didn't linger at the airport, and the two returned to the city. Because it was too late, Zhao Desan stayed at Sister Su's house for one night.
In Xijing at the end of October, the weather was already very cool. This city, decorated by plane trees, gave people a heavy and vicissitudes of history. The gray sky all year round made people who first came to this city feel very depressed, but people who had lived here since childhood felt that this city was very comfortable. It was like an old man who didn't seek progress and had no pursuit. In the years when the national economy developed rapidly, its GDP and various economic data rankings were falling further and further behind.
As one of the top ten cities after the founding of the country, possessing a three-digit area code, its economic ranking had fallen out of the top thirty, not even as good as prefecture-level cities in the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta. In the past two years, the Xijing Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government had been trying every possible way to increase economic growth data. Now, for the Xijing Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, the greatest hope was placed on the construction of the Chanba District. The Chanba District was positioned as a garden-style livable satellite city, using the wetland protection area of the Weihe River Basin as a development point, vigorously developing the tourism industry, enriching the economic structure, and increasing the economic growth rate, which was the development goal of the Xijing Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government for the Chanba District.
And as the deputy district head in charge of urban construction, Zhao Desan had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders and was also in the spotlight. Once Su Qing left, whether Zhao Desan's work was good or not would be magnified by countless targets. If he did well, because of his young age, he might not necessarily be further promoted, and if he did poorly, it was very likely that the higher-ups would use his lack of experience as an excuse to rearrange his duties.
It was drizzling with light rain this morning. Zhao Desan drove back to the rented house early, put on a jacket, and still felt a bit cold when he went out. He simply pulled up his collar and ran toward his unit. The hibiscus trees planted on both sides of the road for more than a year had already bloomed. Rain hit them, and from time to time, red flowers the size of a bowl would fall "thump" to the ground, giving the whole city a very desolate and bleak feeling.
Zhao Desan sat down in the office, first made himself a cup of steaming jasmine tea, held the teacup, sipped the tea carefully while looking at the computer screen with his eyes rolling, focusing on the news on the website. Just when he was attracted by a piece of news with some strength, a beautiful melody rang out inappropriately, and the phone on the desk vibrated.
Zhao Desan glanced at the vibrating phone, let out a light snort from his nose, took the phone with dissatisfaction, pressed the answer button, and said, "Who is it?" Because he was a bit impatient, he didn't even look at the caller ID on the phone screen.
Ma Lan's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Comrade Xiao Zhao, are you busy?"
Zhao Desan heard it was Sister Lan, so he suppressed his temper, softened his tone, and said, "I'm at work, what's wrong?"
Ma Lan said anxiously, "Comrade Xiao Zhao, this project of new rural construction has encountered some trouble, and it's a bit difficult to carry out..."
Hearing Ma Lan say this, Zhao Desan asked suspiciously, "What's wrong? What trouble did you encounter?"
