Chapter 90: Party School
Party School, the most characteristic adult school in China. Students who come out of this school are all pillars of the country. Moreover, the enrollment requirements of this school are special. As long as the party likes it, regardless of whether they have academic qualifications before, the trained ones will have a party school diploma. The gold content of this diploma is very high. If you want to be an official, without this experience, you will at most wander outside the threshold.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the establishment of the party school started from the county level, all the way to the central government, undertaking the education and training work of all party member cadres. Those who are promoted must study, and those who have problems must also study. As long as a person enters this vat, their thoughts will undergo fundamental changes, and they will sublimate to the point where they cannot see themselves clearly.
The trainees of my session come from all townships and county-level bureaus and committees in the county, with the lowest level being deputy section-level cadres. I am the propaganda committee member of the township party committee, which has been approved by the county party committee and confirmed by the red-headed document. The level belongs to this circle.
The monitor is Deng Hanyu, the town mayor of Chengguan Town, a capable man in his thirties. Seeing me, he shook my hand and shouted: "Brother, long admired, long admired."
I don't know Deng Hanyu. I heard before that he was going to serve as the secretary of the Suxi Township Party Committee. Now Guo Wei has arrived first. I don't know what Deng Hanyu thinks? But looking at his appearance, it seems that this matter didn't exist before, still relaxed, natural, and talking and laughing.
I was assigned to the same room as Deng Hanyu. He enthusiastically helped me make the bed, put away my luggage, and after finishing, clapped his hands and said: "Brother, look at what else you need, tell me, old brother."
I looked at the room, two beds, one on each side, a desk in the middle, the schedule of work and rest was pressed under the glass of the desk, and it looked new at a glance. Two chairs, one by each bed, a wardrobe standing behind the door, and a small door next to it, which is a restroom. Simple and generous, although the things are small, it is not shabby at all.
I looked for a long time, but didn't see an ashtray. I said: "Town Mayor Deng, thank you, I'll go find an ashtray."
He took out his phone from his waist and said: "Oh, that's right, there's no ashtray. Hahaha," he smiled and said: "I don't smoke, brother, you smoke."
I hurriedly said: "Forget it, Town Mayor Deng doesn't smoke, so I don't need an ashtray. If I want to smoke, I'll go out and smoke, so as not to let you smoke my secondhand smoke."
He waved his hand generously and said: "It's fine, you can smoke in the room. I don't smoke, but I don't oppose others smoking. Wait a moment, I'll call Principal Old Zhang, what is he doing, why didn't he equip the room with an ashtray."
I hesitated and said: "Is this bad? Just an ashtray, and you're looking for the principal?"
"It's fine, don't worry. We are very familiar. The party school is located on the land of my Chengguan Town, does he Old Zhang dare to fly to the sky?" He dialed the phone with a grin, shouted at the microphone: "Principal Zhang, you are busy, and you don't meet me."
I couldn't hear what was said in the microphone, just heard Deng Hanyu say: "If you don't have it, send someone to our town to get it, or, our town will sponsor?"
Not long after hanging up the phone, I saw an old man with white hair rushing in. Seeing Deng Hanyu, he rushed over to shake his hand and said: "Town Mayor Deng, you are busy, I was still muttering when I saw your name on the study list a few days ago, I didn't expect you to come, and you didn't come to see me old man."
Turning his head and shouting at the door: "Why don't you come in yet?"
A young man came in from the door, holding an ashtray in his hand, blushing and apologizing: "The aunt who cleaned up forgot to put it back."
Principal Zhang scolded: "You didn't check the room? Just let the leaders move in, can you afford the responsibility if something goes wrong?"
The young man wanted to distinguish, but Principal Zhang scolded with a black face: "Why don't you get out, wait for me to treat you to dinner?"
The young man looked at us and smiled, and ran away like escaping.
Principal Zhang looked at me with a smile and said: "This is?"
Deng Hanyu introduced: "Suxi Township Party Committee member, called Chen Feng, a young man."
Principal Zhang shook my hand and said: "Welcome, welcome."
I said: "Principal Zhang, disturbed you, I'm sorry."
Old Zhang smiled and said: "All working for the party, can it be called disturbing?"
The three of them talked and laughed for a while. Deng Hanyu invited us to go out for dinner and drinks, saying that their town had opened a new restaurant, which was completely operated according to the model of coastal areas, with seafood, all air-shipped.
I sighed: "Air-shipped seafood, how expensive is this?"
Deng Hanyu said: "There are many people who don't dislike expensive, such as Boss Hong who opened a sauna in the county reception house, who eats here every day, and has never disliked expensive, saying that as long as the taste is authentic, the money is just a hair."
I said: "He alone can't support a restaurant."
Deng Hanyu patted me on the shoulder and said: "Brother, people who come to the restaurant to eat, how many pay out of their own pockets? Even Boss Hong, he won't consume in the restaurant alone."
I said: "Town Mayor Deng treats to dinner, is it also paid by others?"
Deng Hanyu laughed and said: "I want to treat you, the problem is that others won't let me treat. If I refuse, I will offend people. You say, what should I do?"
I laughed, thinking, anyway, it's not you Deng Hanyu who pays, eating seafood, the picture is just a style, your Chengguan Town has this style, my Suxi Township can't lose face. Isn't it just a meal?
Deng Hanyu has a special car, a Santana. I heard him say that the town originally matched a Santana 2000, but later the county said it had a bad influence, borrowed it to the county, and matched them with a current Passat.
We took his special car to the seafood restaurant. As soon as we got out of the car, we were startled by a big advertisement on the roof. A big character half a person high stood on the roof, the surface of the character was wrapped in colored lights, flashing light. A girl in a cheongsam stood on one side of the big glass door, and a little man in uniform inside guided the guests to separate to each private room.
I followed behind Deng Hanyu, step by step. It's not that I haven't seen the world, but in Chunshan County in the deep mountains, there is such a place, which really surprised me.
Old Zhang took a few steps quickly, leaned against Deng Hanyu and said: "Secretary Guan's car seems to be parked outside."
Deng Hanyu smiled slightly and said: "More than Secretary Guan, don't you see County Head Liu's car is also there? And there are many others, such as Director Li of the People's Congress, the Finance Bureau Director, and the Personnel Bureau Director. Let's eat ours, don't worry about him."
Entering the private room, a man full of local tycoon spirit immediately stood up, reached out and shook hands with Deng Hanyu with a large gold ring on his finger and greeted: "Town Mayor Deng, you are really hard to invite."
Deng Hanyu said calmly: "Boss Qian, it's not that I don't give you face. If it weren't for my brothers today, I wouldn't want to come."
He introduced us one by one: "Boss Qian, this is Principal Zhang of the party school, this is Committee Member Chen of Suxi Township."
Boss Qian let go of Deng Hanyu's hand, shook hands with Principal Zhang and said: "Long admired, long admired." He didn't even look at me. Damn your ancestors, looking down on me? Is it because I am a cadre from that poor place in Suxi Township? Or is it because I am just a township party committee member?
Deng Hanyu noticed my displeasure, smiled and said: "Don't be generally knowledgeable with villains." He pointed to Boss Qian and said: "This is a villain."
Boss Qian smiled, patted his face and said: "Town Mayor Deng is right, I am indeed a villain. Leaders, don't blame me." He said he wanted to shake hands with me. Deng Hanyu said: "Why do so many fancy tricks, talk about business."
Boss Qian instructed the waiter to send a few packs of black hibiscus cigarettes, sent a pack to each of us, tore open the cigarette box himself, and toasted us.
Deng Hanyu waved his hand and said: "Boss Qian, you don't have a memory, right? When did I ever smoke?"
Boss Qian's hand shrank in mid-air, smiled awkwardly, I reached out and took it and said: "I smoke, come, I smoke."
Boss Qian looked at me gratefully and smiled, and turned to instruct the waiter to serve the dishes.
All the wine and dishes were served, Boss Qian invited us to the table, and didn't mention anything. I know it's because I and Principal Zhang are outsiders, so he is not easy to open his mouth. Since Deng Hanyu invited us to dinner, naturally he wouldn't talk about anything, and after saying a few idle words, he went straight to the theme of drinking.
The wine is good wine, Wuliangye. After three cups, a warm breath flowed through the blood vessels in the stomach, and the whole body felt comfortable.
Halfway through the meal, Deng Hanyu got up to toast in Secretary Guan's room and asked if I wanted to go.
I hesitated and said: "Town Mayor Deng, I won't go."
He turned to Boss Qian and said: "Boss Qian, entertain my brother well, I'll go and come back."
After saying that, he pulled the door and left. Principal Zhang and I looked at each other and said: "Boss Qian, you eat vegetables."
Boss Qian came back to his senses and said enthusiastically: "Sorry, Principal Zhang, Committee Member Chen, it's my fault for not recognizing Mount Tai. I apologize." After saying that, he picked up the wine glass in front of him, raised his thick neck and drank it all.
I smiled and said: "Boss Qian, why be polite. It's fate to sit together. Don't be polite." I tentatively asked: "You are looking for Town Mayor Deng to handle things?"
He suddenly stretched his body over, leaned against my ear and whispered: "Committee Member Chen, there is a highway passing through Chunshan County here, don't you know?"
I shook my head and asked Principal Zhang: "Principal Zhang, is the county going to build a highway?"
Principal Zhang said suspiciously: "I don't know, I haven't heard of it."
Boss Qian said mysteriously: "The matter is certain." Speaking of this, he stopped talking, laughed and said: "Let's drink, drink."
Boss Qian's words made me think of Guo Wei's plan. Could it be that he knew it long ago? Besides, what does building a highway have to do with Suxi Township? Could it be that the highway is going to pass through Suxi Township?
A series of questions made me upset. I must find out this news! ===== CHAPTER 91 =====
