pinnacle of power

However, after all, Xiao Hecheng has worked as the office director for many years and has rich experience in dealing with various difficulties. After Xue Bingnan finished speaking, he responded with a smile: "Xiao Xue, you don't have to tease me anymore, to be honest Let me tell you, I was busy with a very important job at the time, and I really couldn't spare time to receive you. If the leader hadn't ordered me to do that, I would still have to be busy with that kind of work now, isn't it? Just to welcome you, after I go back, I have to get busy with that kind of work right away, and I will hand in work in three or four hours, so the pressure is very high, let Director Wu accompany you to have a good chat in a while."

At this time, the old man standing behind Xiao Hecheng was as thin as a bamboo pole. Although he was thin, his hair was well combed and shiny. He didn't seem to have a single white hair, and he often dyed his hair.

This person is Wu Daohang, director of discipline inspection and supervision of the Provincial Construction Department.

After Xue Bingnan and Cheng Jiyu shook hands with Xiao Hecheng and Wu Daohang respectively, they were welcomed into the small conference room.

After the two parties were seated, Xiao Hecheng chatted with Xue Bingnan for a few words and then left.

Only Wu Daohang, Xue Bingnan, and Cheng Jiyu were left in the conference room.

After Xiao Hecheng left, the atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly cooled down. The thin Wu Daohang sat there, his eyes squinted, his expression indifferent, and his airs high, showing a posture of keeping strangers away.

Xue Bingnan and Cheng Jiyu are only about 30 years old, while Wu Daohang is 58 years old this year, and will retire in a year or two. Looking at his age, he is older than Xue Bingnan and Cheng Jiyu's father.

Judging by Wu Daohang's expression, he didn't take the two young men in front of him seriously at all.

Therefore, Wu Daohang kept fiddling with the water glass in his hand with a cold face, never looking directly at the two of them.

Xue Bingnan rolled his eyes and became vigilant in his heart. Regardless of why Wu Daohang treated the two of them like this, he knew very well that although he and Cheng Jiyu entered the gate of the Provincial Construction Department through the pressure of Secretary Liu Qingyu, But if Wu Daohang does not cooperate with their work, I am afraid they will have nothing to do with Wu Daohang. After all, although Liu Qingyu, the secretary of the Disciplinary Committee, is strong, it is impossible to force Wu Daohang to cooperate with him in his work. In this kind of predicament, the more you need to adapt yourself to find a way to pry Wu Daohang's mouth open.

And this should be the reason why Secretary Liu appointed himself as the executive deputy leader of the inspection team.

This is Secretary Liu training himself.The more difficult something is, the more it can exercise a person's ability.

Wanting to understand these things, Xue Bingnan chatted with Wu Daohang on his own, and the other party didn't want to say anything more, so he took the initiative to say something, and he talked here and there, and at the beginning he said something. Talking on the scene is just gossip. Xue Bingnan brought out some of his own knowledge and social hot news, and then expressed his opinions in a very angry attitude, fully expressing his whiplash and grief for many injustices.

In this illogical and purposeful conversation, Xue Bingnan also revealed the main purpose of his and Cheng Jiyu's coming here, which was to investigate Ma Zhengxing's working and living conditions when he was in the Provincial Construction Department.

At the beginning, Cheng Jiyu didn't understand what Xue Bingnan meant by doing this, because the current Xue Bingnan was not the deputy director he knew who had extremely rigorous logical thinking and exquisite speech and deeds. At this moment, Xue Bingnan was more like a housewife, and Still a housewife with a very angry attitude.

But later, when Cheng Jiyu saw the disdainful expression on the corner of Wu Daohang's mouth, which was indifferent at first, he faintly understood Xue Bingnan's true intention.So, he also started to talk nonsense, and behaved worse than Xue Bingnan. After all, he is Xue Bingnan's subordinate, and he is younger than Xue Bingnan, so when he expresses many things, you are more vivid, Especially when he said that he broke his newly purchased 5000 yuan mobile phone in anger when he lost the game, and his heart ached to death, the smile on the corner of Wu Daohang's mouth became more and more obvious.

But at this moment, the expression on Wu Daohang's face is not as indifferent as before, and he would say a few words to tease the two of them from time to time, so the interaction between the three went from Xue Bingnan singing a one-man show at the beginning to the three of them talking to each other later. The atmosphere is very harmonious.

At the beginning, Xue Bingnan always talked about the topic very widely. He only picked up topics that Wu Daohang was interested in, but Xue Bingnan did a good job in controlling the topics. It will be related to the discipline inspection work, so it gives Wu Daohang a false impression that they are indeed working now, but the topic is very casual.

Moreover, Ma Zhengxing was mentioned from time to time, which made Wu Daohang very adaptable to this rhythm. However, once Wu Daohang talked about Ma Zhengxing, he was often very cautious in his words, but Xue Bingnan didn't care, and never had any dissatisfaction.

Under this rhythm, Xue Bingnan and Cheng Jiyu's talking time began to decrease gradually. At the same time, under the intentional induction of Xue Bingnan and Cheng Jiyu, Wu Daohang's talking time continued to increase.

Maybe it's because Wu Daohang usually sits alone in the office and is bored, and because he's going to retire soon, many people don't pay as much attention to him as before, so he was very happy to talk when he got the opportunity today.

While chatting, Xue Bingnan began to consciously guide Wu Daohang to talk about Ma Zhengxing's prestige in the Provincial Construction Department.

If Xue Bingnan directly asked Wu Daohang to make any mistakes in Ma Zhengxing, he would definitely not talk about it, but he asked Wu Daohang to talk about Ma Zhengxing's prestige, history and political achievements. One brilliant thing after another, the appreciation and recognition of Ma Zhengxing are revealed between the lines.

Xue Bingnan didn't have any objection to this, he just kept asking his own questions, and then let Wu Daohang explain.

While talking, Xue Bingnan said with a smile: "I really didn't expect Director Ma to be so capable. It seems that our two brothers are a little bit like a villain. Director Wu, in your opinion, Director Ma is so capable. What is the greatest strength of this person?"

Wu Daohang said with a smile: "If you want to talk about his greatest advantage, he is cautious in doing things. He never targets without purpose. He always thinks about the front and back of everything he does. He will never do things that are not sure, so he is in our construction. During the work of the department, the leaders from top to bottom were very satisfied with him. Basically, he would never make mistakes in any job entrusted to him. When he was transferred to the Provincial Communications Department, the leaders were really unwilling to let him go. If he hadn’t considered Considering his age, I'm afraid he would have been promoted long ago."

"Yes, yes, it's a pity for Director Ma. After hearing what you said, we have a real understanding of his ability. It seems that after we go back, we have to re-examine our position on Comrade Ma Zhengxing. "

Wu Daohang nodded in satisfaction and said, "Xiao Xue, you're doing the right thing. Let me tell you, although Comrade Ma Zhengxing has some minor flaws, he is quite reliable when it comes to major principles."

"Yes, yes, you are the Discipline Inspection Director of the Provincial Department, and you must know him better than us. Cheng Jiyu, have you finished taking the record? Let Director Wu go over it after it is finished, and we have to go back as soon as possible after signing. It can't affect Director Wu's get off work." Xue Bingnan looked at Cheng Jiyu and said.

Cheng Jiyu quickly handed the transcript to Wu Daohang.Wu Daohang took the transcript and flipped through a few pages casually, and found that there was basically no inconsistency with what he said, so he signed it directly.

After Wu Daohang finished signing, he smiled and said: "Xiao Xue, Xiao Cheng, you have worked hard all day today, so don't leave. I will treat you well on behalf of the hall."

Xue Bingnan quickly shook his head and said, "Director Wu, this is not acceptable. Our Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection has strict regulations. During working hours, we absolutely cannot accept any banquets."

Wu Daohang waved his hand and said, "I'm not using public funds to entertain you, but I pay my own money to treat old friends to a meal. We don't drink alcohol, so we just have some work meals."

Hearing what Wu Daohang said, Xue Bingnan and Cheng Jiyu looked at each other, and immediately understood what Wu Daohang meant. Although he said that he would not drink alcohol or use public funds, Xue Bingnan and Cheng Jiyu were both smart people. Since Wu Daohang said he was In the representative hall, it would be strange not to use public funds.However, in order to find out more about Ma Zhengxing's situation and get as much real information from Wu Daohang as possible, the two decided to adapt accordingly. Xue Bingnan said with a smile: "If that's the case, Wu Daohang will have to pay for it tonight."

Afterwards, Xue Bingnan and Cheng Jiyu got into a taxi together with Wu Daohang, and went straight to the outskirts of the city.

The taxi stopped outside a very ordinary-looking farmyard on the outskirts of the city.

At this time, Xue Bingnan noticed that there was a very spacious parking lot outside the farmyard. There were already many cars parked in the parking lot at the moment, many of them were luxury cars, but the license plates of almost all the cars were used for special purposes. The patch is covered.

By this time, if the two of them didn't know where they came tonight, then they would really be fools.

After getting off the car, the two of them followed Wu Daohang towards the gate. At this moment, there were quite a few people entering and leaving the farmyard. They all look extraordinary.

Wu Daohang arrived at the door, took out a magnetic card from his pocket, and handed it to two burly men in security uniforms standing at the door, one of them took out the magnetic card and swiped it on the machine he was holding, and looked at the information on it After that, he hurriedly said respectfully, "Director Wu, please come inside."
