Zhang Yi smiled without commenting, with an inexplicable expression, as if he was thinking about something.
He asked Wei Haiyang again, "Secretary Peng, do you have anything else to say?"
Wei Haiyang said seriously, "Regarding the disposal of the assets of the Cotton Mill No. 1, we need to hold another meeting to discuss it. Secretary Peng wants you to take the lead in this matter..."
Zhang Yi nodded, thought silently, and said nothing more.
...
Qian Lingyun and Li Lin walked side by side into the city government and came to the office on the third floor that had not yet been renovated.
As soon as he entered the room, Li Lin subconsciously began to look for Qian Lingyun's teacup, as if by reflex, and prepared to make tea for him.
However, he soon realized that the office was about to be renovated, so he did not prepare the common supplies for Qian Lingyun in advance.
In desperation, he had to take out a disposable paper cup from the tea cabinet and make a cup of green tea for Qian Lingyun.
Qian Lingyun felt very pleased with Li Lin's attentiveness.
"Pour yourself a cup too, and we can chat while drinking tea." Qian Lingyun said with a smile.
Li Lin handed the brewed tea to Qian Lingyun and poured himself a glass of boiled water.
The two then took their seats.
Qian Lingyun was the first to speak and break the silence.
"Xiao Lin, what are your plans next? Do you want to continue staying in the village, or come back to the city government to help me?"
Qian Lingyun's eyes were filled with concern and expectation.
Li Lin nodded solemnly. He had already thought about this issue carefully in advance.
He knew very well that given Qian Lingyun's loyal character, he would definitely not ignore him after taking office.
Compared with the two, the city government's office environment and room for improvement are naturally better than those in Weishui Township.
However, considering that I will still have to go to the grassroots level for training in the future, it would be better to stay in Weishui Township and make some achievements before leaving.
"Boss, as you know, I just took over Weishui Township, and the one-year probation period hasn't even passed yet.
I was transferred directly back to the city at this time. People who didn't know the truth thought that I couldn't stand the poor conditions in the countryside and became a deserter.
What I mean is that I should continue to stay in Weishui Township and strive to achieve some tangible results.”
Li Lin's tone was sincere and firm, and it was obvious that he had thought it over carefully.
Qian Lingyun smiled and nodded. It was obvious that Li Lin's answer was exactly what he expected.
Even if Li Lin returns to the municipal government now, his current qualifications are still not enough to promote him to a key position.
It would be better to continue staying in the township, achieve some practical results, and lay a solid foundation for future promotion.
"You are right! Our party's fine tradition is to dare to endure hardships. A deserter is not qualified to be reused by the organization."
Qian Lingyun smiled approvingly at Li Lin, "The old saying is right, a prime minister must start from a state department, Xiaolin, you have great ambitions, hahaha."
Li Lin also laughed, "Boss, as the saying goes, a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. Only those who endure hardships can become the best. I have been studying with you for so long, if I don't have this goal, am I still worthy of being your student?"
"Hahahaha... Great! You have ambition!"
The two laughed heartily, their laughter echoing in the room. It seemed like they hadn't been so happy in a long time.
Qian Lingyun took a sip of tea, the smile on his face still not diminished, and said seriously,
"It's good to stay in the countryside and gain some experience, so that no matter what position you take in the future, you will be a good hand!"
He went on to say: “I think it would be better if I announced you as an alternate member of the Shannan County Party Committee. This way, it would be a natural step for you to join the county party committee.
However, since you have just been promoted to a regular section chief, try to make some achievements in the township that are obvious to all within a short period of time, so that your competitors in the county will have nothing to say!"
Li Lin nodded and agreed, "Boss, don't worry. I was trained by you and I will never bring shame to you. I will do my best to achieve results as soon as possible."
"Well, I believe that with your ability, you will soon stand out among the many cadres in Shannan County!"
Qian Lingyun nodded to Li Lin in approval, and suddenly he changed the subject and said solemnly, "Xiao Lin, the Chen Shuping incident was resolved thanks to you and Mr. Hou.
As the saying goes, family disgrace should not be made public, but we are not outsiders. Aren't you curious about how I handled the dispute with Chen Shuping?"
Qian Lingyun looked at Li Lin curiously, thinking that he would not be able to help but ask about this matter, but Li Lin did not ask even a single word from beginning to end.
Of course, Li Lin cares about this matter, after all, it is related to Qian Lingyun's future career.
But he would not ask at any time and in any circumstances.
No matter what, this is Qian Lingyun's own family affair. If he doesn't take the initiative to talk about it, Li Lin will never take the initiative to ask about it.
Li Lin's face showed a solemn expression, and he said earnestly,
"Boss, I know your principles and your way of doing things. I believe you will handle this matter properly."
He said this out of helplessness. In fact, his true thoughts were that if Qian Lingyun hadn't taken the initiative to ask him to mention it, he wouldn't want to get involved in Qian Lingyun's family affairs.
Who is Li Lin? In what capacity does he comment on other people's family affairs?
Li Lin is very self-aware of this, no matter whether they eventually choose to divorce or continue to live together.
It has nothing to do with him, Li Lin!
Li Lin still has this sense of boundaries.
Qian Lingyun smiled, and seemed very satisfied with Li Lin's answer, so he took the initiative to say,
"I have already submitted an application to the organization and explained in detail to Minister Chang that it was Chen Shuping who made the mistake first. I chose to divorce her, and the organization also forgave me for my decision."
Hearing this, Li Lin nodded calmly without expressing any opinion.
