Collecting a lot of these things will test my memory. I will definitely report to Yun Yanchang when he comes back.
When your boss gives you instructions for work, you can take a note and write it down. But if you dare to take a note of something like accepting gifts, your boss will probably break out in a cold sweat.
So I had to memorize it by force, and I would rather make a mistake than make a written record.
At five o'clock in the evening, Luo Yi drove to pick up Li Xiuyuan. When they arrived at the dinner, Qian Hui was also there, and the three of them ate and chatted.
When they were almost done with the meal, Li Xiuyuan asked curiously.
"Director Luo, when County Magistrate Zheng was here, what were the intentions of everyone who came to pay New Year's greetings?"
Li Xiuyuan was simply curious. On August 15th, everyone gave Yun Yanchang gifts, and the amount was basically around 500 yuan. But at the end of the year, Li Xiuyuan was a little confused about the price of the gifts everyone gave.
For example, last night Shao Zhixing directly received 10,000 yuan, which is almost equivalent to a section officer's annual salary.
Li Xiuyuan always felt that this price was a bit high.
"What's the gift?" Luo Yi was stunned for a moment before he understood what Li Xiuyuan was talking about. He turned to look at Qian Hui and asked Qian Hui to pay the bill.
After they were the only two left in the private room, Luo Yi started talking. Although he could not compare with Pang Zhifeng in terms of ability, he had been in the system for so long and was familiar with many things.
"The amount of money given as New Year's greetings has also increased with economic development. In the past two years, everyone gave 2,000 to 3,000 yuan. But last year, I know that the head of a grassroots unit came to visit County Magistrate Zheng and gave him 5,000 yuan."
"Five thousand yuan?" Li Xiuyuan was stunned. It was just a Chinese New Year celebration. Wasn't five thousand yuan too much? It was equivalent to half a year's salary. As a leader, he earned more and received some subsidies. But this was still a bit exaggerated.
"Director Luo, is this a thoughtful gesture or not?" Li Xiuyuan asked cryptically. Was this five thousand yuan a request? Or is this just a normal New Year's greeting?
"No, it's just a normal visit. Five thousand yuan for this leader is enough to keep his current position. Every time when the term of office changes, the township will get a little more generous." Luo Yi said.
Li Xiuyuan was completely enlightened. He had previously thought that Director Shao was generous. If that was the case, the 10,000 yuan Director Shao took was actually a normal amount.
Normally it's 5,000 yuan, but Director Shao gave 10,000 yuan, which is not much. You have to know that he became the director of the Finance Bureau this year with the support of Yun Yanchang.
"Also, those who visit before the New Year are not actually considered close to the leader. Generally speaking, those who are truly close to the leader will visit the leader's hometown on the 29th or 30th of the New Year.
For example, County Magistrate Zheng's hometown is in a township in the neighboring county, about 20 kilometers away from our Huangyuan County. Every year, many officials visit him in person. I heard that on the 29th and 30th of each lunar year, County Magistrate Zheng's home would set up no fewer than five tables of banquets, and the house would be packed with people!
As Luo Yi spoke, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but look at Luo Yi with a strange expression.
Are you sure you just heard it? Or were you the one who went to County Magistrate Zheng's house for the New Year's Eve feast?
