Chapter 1878 A Bit Lonely
After Qin Feng got in the car, he asked Wang Junshou to drive the car back to the county party committee.
The entire yard of the county party committee and county government was quiet, except for the security guard at the entrance of the county party committee office building who was sitting inside the door drowsily.
Qin Feng knocked on the closed door.
Qin Feng's knock on the door disturbed the security guard's sweet dream. He shouted outside in annoyance, "Who is it? What are you doing so late at night?"
Although he was reluctant, the security guard still came over cursing. When he got closer, he saw Qin Feng standing outside the door. He was so scared that his legs began to tremble. He quickly opened the door and saluted Qin Feng while explaining: "I'm sorry, Secretary Qin, I... I didn't know it was you. The light was dim and I couldn't see clearly..."
Qin Feng nodded slightly: "Thank you for your help.", then walked in and went upstairs.
Qin Feng's words made the security guard unable to sleep all night. He had been guarding the door of the county party committee office building for five years. This was the first time in his life that he had a conversation with the county party committee secretary, and the secretary personally and politely said sorry for the trouble. For the security guard, this was a major event that could bring honor to his family, and he could show off when he returned to the village to drink in the future.
Qin Feng came to his office alone. His desk was filled with documents that required his signature.
Although he transferred a large part of the daily work of the county party committee to Zhu Dongliang, there were still many things that required his personal signature as the top leader.
Qin Feng came to the office simply because he didn't want to see Hong Haifeng. He was too lazy to care about Hong Haifeng's affairs and would rather come to the office to work overtime.
Qin Feng sat in the office reviewing documents for more than an hour and felt very tired and had a sore back.
Zhou Liang was not around, so Qin Feng went to make a cup of tea for himself. He stood by the window and looked at the dim street lights under several huge camphor trees outside the window. It was extremely quiet, which made Qin Feng feel a little lonely.
He was in a bad mood today. This bad mood was because Hong Haifeng came, but it was not entirely because of Hong Haifeng.
In the past when he was in Dongyang City, when he was in a bad mood, he would call a few friends to have a drink together, but here in Yian, all he saw were his subordinates, not a single friend.
This is how a career in politics works: the road becomes narrower and narrower, but the higher you climb, the fewer and fewer people there are around you. In the end, there is no one left but you, and you don’t even have anyone to talk to.
"Secretary..." Just as Qin Feng was drinking tea and looking out the window in a daze, Zhou Liang stood at the door and knocked.
"How did you come?"
"I called Wang Jun, and he said you were in the office, so I rushed over."
"Is your sister-in-law home?"
"I came here just to send my sister-in-law home." Zhou Liang walked in and started to help Qin Feng tidy up the documents on the desk.
"After dinner, I accompanied my sister-in-law and the two guests to take a walk along the riverside scenic area. Then I sent the two guests to the Hanyu Hotel to rest, and then sent my sister-in-law back home." Zhou Liang reported the itinerary.
"How is your sister-in-law feeling?"
"My sister-in-law looked very happy, she was talking and laughing."
Qin Feng nodded, and Hong Yue was naturally very happy. She had been kicked out by Hong Haifeng for more than two years, and now she could go home again. This kind of family feeling could not be replaced by anyone.
Moreover, after Hong Yue came to Yian, she had no friends or family. How could she not be happy this time when her family came?
Qin Feng understood Hong Yue very well, so he came specially today to treat Hong Haifeng and his wife to dinner.
"Don't be busy yet, find a place to sit!" Qin Feng suddenly said to Zhou Liang.
Zhou Liang was stunned for a moment, nodded, and sat down on the chair next to Qin Feng.
"How many years have you worked in the agency?" Qin Feng asked Zhou Liang.
“This is the ninth year.”
Actually, Zhou Liang has been working longer than Qin Feng, but Qin Feng is already the deputy mayor, while Zhou Liang is still the deputy director of a county party committee office. Of course, this is already more than 70% of his peers. If he had not seized the opportunity to become a liaison for Qin Feng, Zhou Liang would probably still be an ordinary clerk in the county government office.
"You all work in government agencies. Have you ever thought about working at the grassroots level?" Qin Feng asked.
Zhou Liang understood what Qin Feng meant and stood up quickly: "Secretary, I still hope to continue working beside you so that I can learn more."
"Okay, don't use these official words with me. I'm not talking about now. Even if you want to go now, I won't approve it. It's not the right time yet. I still have a lot of work to do in Yi'an. I don't like having a stranger around me."
"But after Yian's affairs are sorted out, my work focus will definitely be placed on the municipal government. At that time, I will find an opportunity for you to go to the grassroots for training. I tell you this so that you can be prepared in advance. Grassroots work is completely different from government work. You need to learn and understand more, and strive to achieve some results." Qin Feng said to Zhou Liang earnestly.
Qin Feng is very satisfied with and trusts Zhou Liang.
