Chapter 191 First Appointment as Deputy County Magistrate

Jiang Ningyue nodded to indicate that she remembered it.

Gao Yi asked again: "Xiaoyue, do you have any good ideas for the cultural and tourism development of this impoverished county?"

"A good idea?"

Jiang Ningyue thought for a moment and said, "I think we can make Zhaoyang County more famous through variety shows."

"I don't understand that." Gao Yi smiled and said, "You are an expert in this field, just go ahead and do it."

——

Under the leadership of Minister Sun from the Organization Department of Taozhou Municipal Party Committee, Jiang Ningyue came to Zhaoyang County.

Zhaoyang County is located on the east side of Taozhou City, one and a half hours' drive from the center of Taozhou City, which is nearly half the distance of Chenmu County.

In terms of economy, although the GDP of several of its fellow counties is not high, Zhaoyang County's GDP is undoubtedly second.

On the way, Minister Sun briefly introduced Jiang Ningyue to the job responsibilities of the executive deputy county magistrate. In short, it was to serve as the county magistrate's deputy.

Minister Sun said with a smile, "The county magistrate of Zhaoyang County was selected by the province. He has had a smooth career, rising from town mayor to his current position as county magistrate. He is a capable and talented person."

Jiang Ningyue nodded.

Minister Sun smiled meaningfully, "It's just that the secretary of the Zhaoyang County Party Committee is a very strong person."

Jiang Ningyue seemed to be lost in thought.

The car drove off the highway and arrived at the county government compound. The county party committee and county government of Zhaoyang County were all in the same compound, just in different buildings.

The main leaders of the county party committee and county government were waiting at the door to express their respect for Minister Sun and their welcome to Jiang Ningyue.

"Minister Sun, welcome to our Zhaoyang County."

The county party secretary in the lead was a thin middle-aged man, and standing next to him was a young man in his thirties.

Being in his thirties is not considered young, but among the leadership teams of the county party committee and county government where the average age is 45, he is considered young.

The middle-aged man smiled and shook hands with Minister Sun, then turned to look at Jiang Ningyue. "Mr. Jiang, I've long heard of you. I'm Wang Shanhai, the County Party Secretary. On behalf of the County Party Committee and County Government, I welcome you to the Zhaoyang County family. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."

"Thank you, Secretary Wang."

Jiang Ningyue smiled and shook hands with Wang Shanhai. The young man next to her also came over and said, "I'm Lin Nan. I've heard a lot about you."

In the conference room, at a general meeting of all county party committee and government officials, Minister Sun announced Jiang Ningyue's appointment. Jiang Ningyue also took out the prepared manuscript and read it verbatim.

Until now, Jiang Ningyue has not had too many ambitions. She just wants to do her best and do more good things.

After the meeting, Minister Sun, accompanied by Wang Shanhai, went to a restaurant next to the county government with everyone for a meal. However, because Minister Sun had to return to the city in the afternoon for a meeting, he did not drink.

Since the leader didn't drink, naturally the others didn't drink either.

During the banquet, Yang Juan, director of the county party committee's propaganda department and the only female leader of the county party committee, kept chatting with Jiang Ningyue.

However, Jiang Ningyue also observed one thing: the county magistrate didn't seem to be very popular. Sometimes, when Lin Nan brought up a topic, the conversation would be silent.

This is very interesting.

As the head of the county government and the second-in-command of the county party committee, even if the municipal party committee organization minister and the county party committee secretary were present, his words would not fall on the ground so dryly!

When combined with what Minister Sun said about County Party Committee Secretary Wang being quite strong, everything seemed to make sense.

In the afternoon, Minister Sun left.

Jiang Ningyue followed everyone back to the county government compound, and Wu Xuehai, director of the county government office, led Jiang Ningyue to her office.

As soon as she opened the door, Jiang Ningyue felt suddenly enlightened.

My previous office at the provincial TV station was only 12 square meters, but now it has at least doubled in size. Furthermore, we have all the necessary office supplies, almost all brand new.

A desk, bookcases, and comfortable leather chairs—these were the basics. On the wall, a map of the entire county hung. There was also a phone on the desk, though unfortunately it wasn't red.

At the same time, this room is also a small suite with a small reception room outside. In theory, this reception room is public, but in reality no one will come here to hold meetings.

Wu Xuehai smiled and said, "County Magistrate Jiang, it stands to reason that county leaders aren't supposed to have secretaries. However, to facilitate the work of the leaders, our county government office has arranged a group of liaison officers. Do you have any requirements for your full-time liaison officer?"

Jiang Ningyue smiled and said, "A pretty girl."

If a male leader made such a request, his reputation would probably be ruined immediately.

But Jiang Ningyue didn't care, it was even very normal.

"OK."

Wu Xuehai smiled and nodded, "I'll have someone report to you shortly."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Director Wu."

"You're too polite, County Magistrate Jiang. This is what I should do."

After Wu Xuehai left, Jiang Ningyue sat down in her office chair. She had never expected to become a deputy county magistrate. Life was truly unpredictable.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Wu Xuehai opened the door with a young woman, who looked at Jiang Ningyue timidly and with some excitement.

The woman was tall and good-looking, and at the same time, she exuded a sense of being a "good girl" from head to toe.

Wu Xuehai smiled and introduced, "County Chief Jiang, this is the beautiful lady in our office, Kang Meijing."

"County Magistrate Jiang, my name is Kang Meijing."

Although Kang Meijing's name is rather vulgar, she does look good. Judging from her facial features, she is an honest person.

"Okay. Thank you for your hard work, Director Wu."

Wu Xuehai continued, "County Magistrate Jiang, you've been staying in the hotel west of our county government for a while now. I'll help you find a place to stay. Do you have any requirements for accommodation?"

"I don't have any requirements." Jiang Ningyue said casually, "Just clean."

"OK."

Wu Xuehai nodded, and as he was about to leave, he warned Kang Meijing, "Xiaokang! You must learn from County Magistrate Jiang and ask for his advice if you have any questions."

"Yes, I understand."

Kang Meijing nodded quickly.

After Wu Xuehai left, Kang Meijing looked at Jiang Ningyue and asked, "Leader, what should I do now?"

Jiang Ningyue had just arrived in the county and her own division of labor was not yet clear, so how could she assign work to Kang Meijing? However, it seemed that there was one thing, and Jiang Ningyue said:

"I'm planning a variety show in our county. Simply put, it's about letting celebrities experience rural life. Do you have any suggestions for a location?"

"Variety show?"

As expected, he was a young man. His eyes lit up when he mentioned this. "Yes, there are many places in our county with beautiful scenery."

"Okay, you prepare first and choose more spots. Then you can take me for more runs later."

“Good leadership.”

Kang Meijing was full of fighting spirit. After leaving Jiang Ningyue's phone number and adding her on WeChat, she said, "Boss, I'm in the office next door. If you have anything, just call me on WeChat."

"Okay." Jiang Ningyue nodded.
