Chapter 1421: Helping Chang Juan to get a tranfer
Noon.
Outside the courtyard.
Dong Xuebing didn"t let Chang Juan carry the luggage. After leaving the Investment Promotion Bureau, he took her to a decent roadside restaurant.
"Xuebing, you changed your car again."
"Yeah, I"ve had this one for over half a year."
"A Range Rover, and it"s top of the line. You"re well off."
"Got lucky, won the lottery once."
"Sis also heard from Xiao Tan. Heard that you were driving a Porsche last year, and now you"re doing exceptionally well. Your official position is promoted every six months. You"re still so young; you"re already a Deputy County Mayor. At this rate, getting promoted to Mayor in the next half-year is a sure thing. Sigh, compared to you, Sis is far behind. When you first entered the system, I was a staff member who had worked for many years. You"re a Deputy Division Chief, and I am still just a staff member."
"I still think being a Staff Member is quite easy and relaxed. I especially miss the days when we were all in the same office, hehe."
"You say that, but being a Staff Member is nothing compared to the glory of being a leader."
"You"re still young. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
"I have no chance. This time, even being a civil servant is uncertain. What"s the use of talking about promotions? I don"t even want to think about it. I don"t have that ability."
"Don"t say that."
"I know myself well. I don"t have any tricks up my sleeve."
"But indeed, I think your work ability is quite good."
"You"re just comforting me. When it comes to work, who can compare to you?"
"Okay, Sister Chang, don"t talk about me. Let"s order some dishes. What do you feel like eating?"
"Anything is fine. Let me see… well, there aren"t many options here. Let"s go with whatever you suggest."
"There aren"t many dishes. After all, the conditions are limited. Hmm, let"s just order some home-style dishes."
With Dong Xuebing"s earlier words, Chang Juan probably felt at ease. She no longer had tears, and her emotions improved a lot. Cheerfully chatting with Dong Xuebing, she discussed past events while eating. Later, they talked about the situation of Dong Xuebing"s former subordinates after he left. Tan Limei got promoted, and Sun Zhuang is doing well, too. Guo Panwei was pulled over to Yan Tai County by Dong Xuebing long ago and has also been promoted. Considering all these people, Chang Juan"s career is average among them. They are still the same as before. Talking about this, Sister Chang’s tone was a bit sour, "I have to support a child now, and my family can"t rely on that husband of mine. Now that I"ve caused such a big trouble, I…"
Dong Xuebing comforted her, "Don"t worry, you have me. Just don"t be polite to me."
Chang Juan shook her head. "How can I not feel embarra.s.sed?"
Dong Xuebing smiled, "It"s fine. You don"t need to be polite with me."
Chang Juan said, "Really, there"s no need. I can still get by as long as I don"t lose my civil servant position. Now I"m just worried that the Bureau will hold a grudge against me and insist on firing me."
Dong Xuebing thought for a moment. "It won"t be that extreme."
"It"s not certain. Those people are a group." Chang Juan gritted her teeth when mentioning them.
Dong Xuebing glanced at her beautiful feet in high heels under the table. The pointed heels looked sharp enough to be troublesome if kicked. "It"s okay. I"ll ask about it for you later."
"Yeah, you must be busy this afternoon, right?"
"After eating, I"ll find a car to take you back. Let"s go to our county guesthouse first. I"ll make arrangements by calling them, and your luggage can be taken there."
"Sure, since I am here, I"ll follow your arrangements. Whatever you ask me to do, I"ll do." Chang Juan finished speaking and picked up a bite of food for him. "Eat."
"Cough, thank you."
"Why thank me? If you think highly of me, don"t be so polite."
Chang Juan"s words were ambiguous, and Dong Xuebing coughed when he heard them. Dong Xuebing didn"t expect Chang Juan to come to seek refuge with him after encountering troubles. Dong Xuebing couldn"t ignore her. Even though recruiting people for the Investment Promotion Bureau hasn"t been finalized, he can find a way to arrange Chang Juan. Dong Xuebing might not be at the forefront among the members, but he still had some significant influence. Arranging a light job to support Chang Juan shouldn"t be a problem. If the Investment Promotion is not suitable, there are other government units. She can still fit into a public inst.i.tution if other departments are not suitable.
After the meal, Dong Xuebing made a phone call to make arrangements.
Staff Member Chen Yunsong volunteered to carry Chang Juan"s luggage downstairs. "Big sister, here are your things."
Dong Xuebing looked at him. "Xiao Chen, can I borrow your car?"
"Uh, at this time, it might be difficult." Chen Yunsong said.
"There"s no taxi around." Dong Xuebing looked around. This place is remote, and the taxis don"t come here. "In that case, you drive my car and take Big Sister to the county guesthouse. I"ve already arranged it."
Chen Yunsong immediately said, "No problem, rest a.s.sured."
Dong Xuebing gave him the car key, and after taking it, Chen Yunsong looked at the Range Rover logo on it, showing a somewhat nervous and excited expression. Not to mention a car worth four million. He hadn"t even driven a car worth four hundred thousand.
"Big Sister," Dong Xuebing said, "if there"s anything, call me. I"ll let you know if there"s any news."
Chang Juan looked at him reluctantly. "Okay, I will wait for your news."
Dong Xuebing said, "Do you know how to drive? When you arrive, let Xiao Chen give you the car key. You can take my car first. It will be convenient for you to go out and do something."
Chang Juan glanced at the Range Rover on the side of the road, swallowed her saliva, and looked a bit eager to try. She said, "Okay, Big Sister won"t be polite to you."
The Range Rover disappeared, and Sister Chang left.
Watching them go, Dong Xuebing walked towards the County Party Committee compound. He picked up his phone and found the number of Zhen Anguo, the County Public Security Bureau Chief, and called.
Dial, dial, dial.
The call went through.
"h.e.l.lo, who is it?" Zhen Anguo"s voice came through.
Dong Xuebing smiled, "Chief Zhen, it"s me, Dong Xuebing."
Zhen Anguo was slightly startled, "Oh, Mayor Dong, hehe, what"s the matter?"
Dong Xuebing said, "It"s nothing major. I just want to ask you for a favor. I need someone from you."
"Who do you need?" Zhen Anguo asked.
"Chang Juan from the General Affairs Office. I heard she was suspended. I"m working on investment promotion, and we are short of people here. What do you think?" Dong Xuebing said.
Zhen Anguo responded with an "Oh," probably understanding what was happening. After a pause, he said, "Okay, if the procedures come through, I"ll release her."
"Thank you, Director Zhen."
"No need to be polite."
He was not only giving Dong Xuebing face but also avoiding this troublemaker who had caused a stir at the City Bureau last time by causing trouble in his department.
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing called Xie Guobang"s secretary.
"h.e.l.lo, Secretary Shen, it"s me, Dong Xuebing. I want to ask the Public Security Bureau to transfer someone to help. Is that okay?"
"Can your side handle it?"
"We can handle it. I"ll get it done as soon as possible."
"That"s fine. No problem."
Secretary Shen agreed very readily.
