Chapter 1832 Open again
Su Yan suppressed the doubts in her heart and did not ask too much, and took a bus with Qiao Liang to the county No. 1 Middle School.
This time I went to the No. 1 Middle School to participate in the preparations for the 100th anniversary of the county No. 1 Middle School. Songbei County No. 1 Middle School has a long history. Even in the entire Jiangzhou City, Songbei County No. 1 Middle School is also famous because there are many powerful figures here, including business figures and political leaders. Now there are also some working ministerial-level officials who graduated from Songbei County No. 1 Middle School. As for department-level cadres, there are many more.
On the 100th anniversary of Songbei County No. 1 Middle School, many heavyweights were going back to school to participate in the school anniversary. Therefore, the county also attached great importance to the school anniversary activities of the county No. 1 Middle School. Even the leaders in charge of education in the city also made relevant instructions for this.
Qiao Liang took a bus to the county No. 1 Middle School, and the newly appointed deputy county magistrate Tang Xiaofei came with him.
Although Tang Xiaofei is the newly promoted deputy county magistrate and has a lower qualification than other deputy county magistrates, because she is a member of the county leadership team, she ranks third only in the government after county magistrate Qiao Liang and executive deputy county magistrate Zhang Honghua. This is also a kind of back-end within the system that people who do not want to be convinced but have to accept it.
After Tang Xiaofei took office, she was in charge of science, education, culture and health. Therefore, Tang Xiaofei should have come to the preparatory event for the school anniversary of the county No. 1 Middle School today. This is also the first public event that Tang Xiaofei participated in after taking office.
Surrounded by the school leaders, the group inspected the school’s anniversary preparations. After visiting the school, the group went to the conference room for a meeting.
From beginning to end, Tang Xiaofei intended to distance herself from Qiao Liang, as if she was full of disgust for Qiao Liang.
Outsiders could not see anything about Tang Xiaofei's actions, but Qiao Liang, as the person involved, felt the arrogance of Tang Xiaofei's every move. Qiao Liang was too lazy to argue with Tang Xiaofei. Tang Xiaofei relied on being Luo Fei's niece and had always been spoiled and domineering. Qiao Liang thought that a man would not fight with a woman, so there was no need to be serious with Tang Xiaofei. The two of them would probably have been working together for a long time in the future. If they were serious with Tang Xiaofei in everything, they would be angry to death.
At the report meeting on the preparations for the school anniversary of the county No. 1 Middle School, the school leaders reported to Qiao Liang about the current school preparations for the school anniversary activities and what other shortcomings do they still need the support of the county. Qiao Liang also responded to this. The county dispatched three staff members to form a coordination group to be responsible for assisting the county No. 1 Middle School in coordination with the government departments, and must ensure that the 100th anniversary activities of the county No. 1 Middle School are well done and ultimately successful.
After finishing his speech, Qiao Liang glanced at Tang Xiaofei: "Deputy County Magistrate Tang, you are the leader in charge of education in the county. You can say a few words too."
Tang Xiaofei didn't expect that Qiao Liang suddenly handed her the talk to her, and she was caught off guard and opened her mouth and didn't know what to say. In fact, Tang Xiaofei was still unable to adapt to her current identity change, especially since she had no experience in working at the grassroots level and had not experienced in important positions. She did not prepare a speech in advance and suddenly asked her to speak. Tang Xiaofei did not have the ability to perform on the spot at all.
After stammering for a while, Tang Xiaofei said, "County Magistrate Qiao has already said it very well just now, I have nothing to add."
Tang Xiaofei's face turned a little red after saying that, and even she felt that her performance was a bit unsatisfactory, let alone others.
Tang Xiaofei thought that she would be embarrassed at this time, so she couldn't help but glared at Qiao Liang. She felt that Qiao Liang was intentional and wanted to make her fool of herself.
Qiao Liang saw Tang Xiaofei's eyes a little confused. The woman didn't know where she was nervous. She was a deputy county magistrate and didn't even have the ability to respond to a few words on the spot. With this level, if it weren't for Luo Fei's niece's identity, Tang Xiaofei would not be qualified to be the deputy county magistrate at all, let alone the deputy county magistrate who joined the team.
After the meeting, Qiao Liang and his group returned to the county courtyard. When they returned to their office, Qiao Liang had just entered the door and saw Tang Xiaofei following him and closing the door.
"County Magistrate Qiao, did you deliberately want me to make a fool of yourself just now?" Tang Xiaofei walked to Qiao Liang and asked with a stare.
"Deputy County Magistrate Tang, what you said is simply inexplicable. Do I need to make you look ugly? As one of the main leaders of the county government, you represent the image of our county government outside. As the county magistrate, I made you look ugly, wouldn't that destroy the image of the county government and slap yourself in the face?" Qiao Liang said angrily.
Hearing Qiao Liang's words, Tang Xiaofei was stunned and didn't know what to say. Qiao Liang was speechless. She looked at Qiao Liang with uncertainty, "Didn't you really mean it just now?"
"Tsk, why are you so stubborn? You are the deputy county magistrate in charge of education. Isn't it normal for me to ask you to say a few words in the same occasion just now? If you don't say a word, people will feel abnormal." Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xiaofei, "It's because you lack your own ability. You are disconnected at critical moments, and you are embarrassed to blame others. Deputy County magistrate Tang, don't blame me for not reminding you that you are now one of the main leaders of the county and no longer the section chief of the Water Resources Bureau. You must not only adapt to your own identity change, but also improve your abilities. In the future, don't be like today. When you need to perform on the spot, you will lose your ties again."
"I...I, I'm happy, I care about your business." Tang Xiaofei stuttered for a moment, choked Qiao Liang with some anxiety, and then turned around and left.
Tang Xiaofei admitted in her heart that what Qiao Liang said was right, but she was a person with good face. She could not let down her face and admit that she lacked abilities. She could only choose this way to fight Qiao Liang and then leave in shame.
Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xiaofei's back and grinned, "Little thing, no matter how arrogant you Tang Xiaofei is, I can still cure you."
Time flies. In the evening, Qiao Liang ordered a dinner from the cafeteria. After working overtime at around 8 o'clock, Qiao Liang left the office.
When he returned to the rented house, Qiao Liang had just entered the door for a while, and there was a knock on the door outside. Qiao Liang walked to open the door and saw Huang Hongmei standing outside the door. Qiao Liang was a little surprised and asked, "Miss Huang, what's the matter?"
"Handsome guy, are you going to play?" Huang Hongmei asked with a smile. She was about to go out when she got downstairs and saw the lights on in Qiao Liang's house, so she knocked on the door and asked.
"Where to play?" Qiao Liang asked back.
"It's a nightclub, or do you want to go for a gamble?" Huang Hongmei asked with a smile.
"Hmm? Isn't the place below the nightclub blocked?" Qiao Liang asked calmly.
"It's true that it was closed, but it just opened again yesterday and moved to a factory in the suburbs. The location was a bit off and the decoration was not good, which made me a little unwilling to work part-time." Huang Hongmei said with a little disgusting.
"It's opened again so soon?" Qiao Liang's face turned a little ugly, and he looked at Huang Hong's eyebrows and said, "Miss Huang, can you take me to see it?"
"Yes, if you want to play, I'll take you there." Huang Hongmei smiled, "By the way, what about the friend you were with that day, should you call him to join us?"
"He is not available now." Qiao Liang glanced at Huang Hongmei, "Are you actively trying to attract more customers?"
"I just asked casually." Huang Hong smiled, "Actually, I can't make much money by pulling you one or two people. Now the venue has been moved to the suburbs, and the number of customers is much smaller. Unlike before, when I was in a nightclub, I could bring many customers down from the nightclub to play. You also know that many people who go to the nightclub are not serious people. If you encourage me a little, there are still many people who will go down to gamble..."
Huang Hongmei seemed to regard Qiao Liang as a friend, chatting without any warning at all.
Under Huang Hongmei's leadership, the two took a taxi to the suburbs, which is located at the junction of urban and rural areas, close to the county town. After the two got off the car, Huang Hongmei took Qiao Liang to an alley.
"This place is quite hidden." Qiao Liang said while walking in the alley.
"No, maybe the previous place was blocked, so I'm very cautious this time, otherwise I wouldn't have moved to such a remote place." Huang Hongmei replied.
Qiao Liang smiled and said, "Didn't you say your venue is the safest place in Songbei County? Even if other places are investigated, your venue will not be found."
"It's true that nothing happened before. I don't know what the leaders in the county are nervous about this time. I heard that they are still the new county magistrate." Huang Hong's eyebrows curled his lips.
Qiao Liang's mouth twitched when he heard this. If Huang Hongmei knew that the person she was scolding was standing in front of her now, I wonder what she would feel.
After passing through an alley, it soon became wide open in front of me, and a factory building came into view. Outside the factory building was a large open space and many cars were parked.
When Qiao Liang saw that the car could drive directly, he couldn't help asking, "Why didn't you let the taxi driver drive the car directly to this door just now, so as to save you from walking."
"We need to take a longer journey to drive the car here. We just got off there and took a quick walk in. We can save some fares." Huang Hongmei smiled.
"You are very good at saving money." Qiao Liang smiled.
"That's right, no one's money is coming from the strong wind. It's not easy to make some money these days, so you can save the place you can." Huang Hongmei said with a smile.
As the two were talking, Huang Hongmei took Qiao Liang into the factory. There were two men guarding the factory entrance. They obviously recognized Huang Hongmei. Seeing Huang Hongmei bringing people over, they didn't ask much, and let Huang Hongmei go in.
When they entered, Qiao Liang saw a complete range of facilities and many people were playing. Although there were not as many people as before when they were in the nightclub downstairs, they should have a group of regular customers. After changing the venue, they soon brought people to play.
"Brother, what do you want to play?" Huang Hongmei asked Qiao Liang.
Qiao Liang did not answer. Looking at the scene in front of him, a sense of anger surged in Qiao Liang's heart, but at this moment, Qiao Liang restrained his anger and took out his cell phone and sent a message silently.
