Seeing that several people behind him were backing off, Zhou Jianbo gritted his teeth and shouted at the top of his voice: "Let's go, let's all go."
A man behind him muttered quietly, "Forty cents is enough for several meals."
Another lackey of Zhou Jianbo quickly said, "Why are you afraid? Aren't they going to reimburse you?"
"Reimbursement will have to wait until the end of the year when grain is distributed..."
Zhou Jianbo listened to the mutterings of the people behind him, gritted his teeth, stamped his feet and said, "I'll pay for this first.
Come back and reimburse me and give it to me again!!”
When Liu Qianjin heard what he said, his eyes lit up and he walked up to him shamelessly: "Comrade Zhou, please help with mine as well.
You know, it’s not easy for me…”
Zhou Jianbo wanted to punch this shameless man.
As the secretary of the commune, his salary subsidy is much higher than that of the director of the standing committee office.
She even had the audacity to ask him to pay for it.
But in front of so many people, he couldn't be left out. If he didn't pay the money, wouldn't everyone in the county know that the two of them were not getting along?
Others: Even if you leave, we know you two don’t get along…
"Okay! I'll pay for it today! Let's go and inspect some villages and towns."
This place is different from the inland areas. The distance between villages is more than a hundred miles.
Some are far away from the county, nearly two hundred miles away.
So after taking a round and coming down, they are taking advantage by paying two dollars for gas.
Lu Zhiye looked at the smiling Liu Qianjin and his mouth twitched: Where is your indignant look just now? ? ? You changed so quickly? ?
Liu Qianjin seemed to understand what he meant, his mouth almost reaching his belt, and he whispered to Lu Zhiye, "You don't know this.
If a fool pays, and you are not happy, then aren't you just as much of a fool as him?"
His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, and was just heard by Zhou Jianbo, who immediately became angry and his face turned red.
"Secretary Liu, you!!!"
Before Zhou Jianbo could finish his words, Liu Qianjin smiled and pulled him towards the truck.
"Director Zhou, look, there's no room in our cab. You and a few other comrades should just bear with it and sit in the back truck bed."
Zhou Jianbo's face looked as if he had eaten shit: "The passenger seat is quite big, why can't two people sit in it?
Besides, why should you sit in the front passenger seat while we have to squeeze in the back? It’s not fair at all.”
The guy behind him with a flat head followed up, "That's right. Besides, the money was paid by Director Zhou, so he should sit in the front."
Liu Qianjin was not annoyed, and said slowly: "Okay, you sit in the front, but we have to visit several villages today.
Can you recognize the whole road? If you can, then you will be in charge of leading Comrade Lu."
Zhou Jianbo's breath got stuck in his throat and he almost died from anger.
The people behind him shut their mouths in disappointment. They worked in offices all year round, and although they had gone down to inspect several times, they did.
But he was never as familiar with it as Liu Qianjin, who had climbed up from the grassroots.
Seeing Zhou Jianbo remained silent for a long time, Liu Qianjin squinted his eyes and smiled and said, "Since Director Zhou doesn't have the ability, please get in the car. I'll sit in the front first."
Zhou Jianbo frowned, very angry: "The passenger seat is not small, let me sit in the front with you."
Liu Qianjin waved his hands quickly: "Hey, hey, this won't do, you may not know, I'm carsick.
I almost vomited all over Comrade Lu this morning. If you don't believe me, why don't you ask him?"
A suspicious look swept between him and Lu Zhiye.
Seeing Lu Zhiye nod, Zhou Jianbo had no choice but to give up.
After thinking about it carefully, if Liu Qianjin vomited on him, how could he go to the countryside? ?
Liu Qianjin likes to eat garlic, which makes me sick just thinking about it.
I don't know if it was to comfort himself or what, Zhou Jianbo waved his hand and said, "Let's sit in the back."
He climbed onto the rear bed of the truck with great effort. Since there was no cargo, Lu Zhiye did not hang up the tarpaulin.
At this time, several people in Zhongshan suits were seen struggling to climb onto the truck bed.
Lu Zhiye wanted to laugh, this scene seemed familiar.
This happened in the cannery a while ago. What a coincidence, isn't it? Both of them were surnamed Zhou.
They are really not from the same family and are not being targeted by the same means.
After getting on the bus, Lu Zhiye didn't hesitate and put the two dollars into his pocket.
After having tricked Zhou Jianbo, Liu Qianjin was in a good mood.
"Thanks for cooperating with me just now. Thank you very much."
While driving, Lu Zhiye answered nonchalantly: "What's the big deal?
But there is one thing I don’t quite understand.”
Liu Qianjin had been working in the officialdom for several years, so how could he not understand Lu Zhiye's doubts.
He sighed helplessly: "Logically speaking, I shouldn't even say this to you.
But I had no one to talk to, and I felt really uncomfortable.
They are all older than me, so logically, it would never be my turn to be the commune secretary.
But I’ve only been here for two years and have made some small achievements.
With the help of my family and the praise from my superiors, after two years of experience, I was promoted to a commune cadre.
In the eyes of these people, I have no background and I am not old enough, so how can I get to this position? "
Liu Qianjin took out the teacup from his arms, took a sip slowly, and then said: "Originally, the commune was down there, and it didn't have that much to do with these people.
But some time ago, a leader proposed to merge the work.
We moved from the bottom to this side, and this is where the contradiction arises, right?
Although my position is higher than his, I don't want to have a conflict with him.
After all, he has been in this position for so many years, and if things go wrong, he might do something like tripping others up."
Lu Zhiye also understood. No wonder he only dared to engage in verbal battle with Zhou Jianbo just now.
When they arrived at the first village and got off the bus.
Several people in the back of the truck were sneezing because of the cold.
This is when he is wearing a hat. I wonder what it would look like if he wasn’t wearing it.
Liu Qianjin suppressed the smile on his face, and hurried forward to help the man down: "Oh my, look at this, I just wanted to say, it's so cold, why don't you grab a military coat and put it on?"
Liu Qianjin said it nicely on the surface, but he was secretly very happy in his heart: You deserve it for trying to show off in front of others!
I'm only wearing a thin jacket under my Zhongshan suit. How can it keep me warm?
When Zhou Jianbo got off the car, his arms were frozen.
As he spoke, he sneezed all over Liu Qianjin's face.
Liu Qianjin wiped his face in disgust and said hastily, "Director Zhou, can you... still come with us to inspect?
Otherwise, why don’t you take a rest here at the brigade headquarters for a while…”
