Lao Tzu is a toad

Chapter 339 The First Step

At 5 o'clock in the morning, Zhao Jiadi, who hadn't slept all this time, got up in a squid posture, put on his clothes, ran to the study and took out a map of Hangzhou from a newsstand for a few dollars. Ordinary youths would do normal things, but Wen Qing’s was Zhao Jiadi’s number one and almost only dogleg, Han Daode circled with a red pen on the map the addresses of all bureau-level offices in the city, below the bureau-level Yes, if it is sensitive, it will be wiped out. For example, at the Jiusan Society branch in Zhejiang, Zhao Jia packed up the documents needed for reporting, carried a computer bag, went downstairs and rode a bicycle that was neither new nor old. Halfway to close to 5 o'clock, I spent nearly two and a half hours walking around the city, the State Grid, the Quality Supervision Bureau, the Environmental Protection Department, the National Security Bureau, the Municipal Government Building, the Provincial Party Committee, and the Banking Regulatory Bureau , Garrison Command, etc., along the way, I saw many vehicles passing by in a hurry, without exception, they were all low-end and low-end, and there were few famous brand cars. This is probably a small microcosm of the social reality. , Zhao Jiadi ordered porridge and fried dumplings for two yuan at a breakfast stall where the cleaners gathered halfway. No one cared about this young man who lived a healthy life and had a breakfast for three yuan and fifty cents. At least a young man with tens of billions of wealth chose a very incomprehensible path.

Zhao Jia reported to the Provincial Development and Reform Commission on time at 8 o'clock, parked the car, and received a call from Li Tan when he passed the guard. Li Daguan asked Zhao Jiadi if he was disappointed that he didn't set up a big parade of firecrackers at the Development and Reform Commission. Zhao Jiadi walked into the building in the direction indicated by the gate guard, held the mobile phone and whispered to the leader, now I am your soldier, and if you need to serve tea and water in the future, you only need to make a phone call.Li Tan joked that you are thousands of miles away from me, and flattering also pays attention to cost.Zhao Jiadi thick-skinned and softly said that the physical cost is not small, but the opportunity cost is high. Your office contacts are not in vain.Li Tan was choked by these words, so he had no choice but to say, okay, now I know that I am using bureaucracy to take advantage of loopholes, so I won’t argue with you. People look down on it, but it’s always a good thing for newcomers in the office to be diligent. You can control the speed by yourself. This knowledge has to be slowly figured out by yourself.After a few polite words, Zhao Jiadi hung up the phone. The general infrastructure room is on the 5th floor. After thinking about it, Zhao Jiadi went upstairs, but on the stairs on the 2nd floor, he met an uncle who was slowly going upstairs with a teacup. Unintentionally slowed down and opened a distance, the uncle turned into the corridor when he reached the 4th floor, Zhao Jiadi received a text message from Deputy Director Yao, asking if he had been to the Development and Reform Commission, Zhao Jiadi replied that he had just arrived on the 5th floor , the member of the party group who got to know Li Tan personally made Zhao Jiadi wait a moment, and soon, the mediocre figure of "Yao Baldy" appeared in the aisle. Smiling and beckoning to Zhao Jiadi, he "condescends" and took Zhao Jiadi to knock on the office door of Kong Youming, the head of the general office of infrastructure construction. This provincial party committee newspaper ranks the second highest in the country's provincial party newspapers. About 15 years ago, there were no big bosses in Zhejiang, and the little ones were safe. Going one step further, I have to feel that Zhejiang is turning around. In fact, it is not surprising. It is not only rich and full of vitality, but also does not have too many deep-rooted conservative things. It is easy to achieve political achievements and has low risk. It is the most suitable springboard. For small fish and shrimps like Zhao Jiadi, the calmness above does not mean that there is harmony and friendship below.

Kong Youming is a very strong middle-aged man, 180 cm tall by visual inspection, but he is slightly hunchbacked. It is not clear whether it is congenital or acquired. When he saw a young man brought in by his immediate superior, he knew it well. The last time the two old classmates were drinking and chatting, the theme revolved around the child named Zhao Jiadi in front of him and Li Tan, who was half in awe of the middle and high-level people in Hangzhou City. Moreover, Zhao Jiadi's headshot was posted on the resume. It is very clear that although Kong Youming has been joked in private that he is blind, his eyesight has always been good and he does not need to wear glasses so far. When he saw Zhao Jiadi, he stretched out his hand and shook it. National examination champion, amazing, sit down, sit casually, you are welcome.Kong Youming didn't deliberately talk to Director Yao, obviously he didn't want to make small moves in this regard. Didn't the reason why Li Tan invited Bald Yao to dinner because he knew that he had a close relationship with Bald Yao?In front of outsiders who don't know what's going on, Kong Youming certainly wouldn't show off with Director Yao regardless of his age. Kong Youming's behavior today is because he is afraid that the young man who can only be sure that his IQ is not low will not be able to see the clues. Kong Youming Youming has already given enough subtext, Zhao Jiadi, you know Li Tan, and I know Yao Feng, so the three of you in the office are on the same line at present, at least you don’t have to worry about I will wear small shoes for you, you can rest assured to stand in line.Whether it is the workplace or the officialdom, no matter how high you climb, standing in a team is a headache. If you don’t stand, you often have no backstage. Once the wind and rain are precarious, you will be the first to be kicked out by the evenly matched hostile sides in the balance. Oh, it's even more pitiful, the tree fell and the monkeys scattered. If one is not good, the legs will be limped when they jump off, and it is not impossible to be killed by a tree.Zhao Jiadi's expression was calm, his eyes were clear, and he sat upright on the sofa, keeping his eyes fixed all the time.Yao Feng warmly smiled and said Director Kong was also the number one student in the city's college entrance examination back then, you must have a lot of common language in the future, communicate more, I still have something to do, Director Kong, the Maxima brought you, you Bole, don't be too idle.

Kong Youming laughed, sent Yao Feng to the door of the office, turned around and asked Zhao Jiadi with a smile if he wanted to drink tea first, Zhao Jiadi quickly got up and said no, Kong Youming thought about it, and said I will take you to the office .The two walked together to the office separated by two rooms, which was located on the sunny side. During the short journey, Kong Youming thought a lot. Over the years, he has been a middle-level cadre who is not small but still has real power. He has also met many people with backgrounds. The younger generation, the relationship is complicated, and one of them is a relative of the provincial standing committee. Maybe it's because life is too good and worry-free, or maybe it's because they don't want to be here. They are very lonely here, with a mediocre reputation and not outstanding ability. I changed jobs in less than two years, of course I did, but it is said that I stumbled in the organization department later on. Instead, some young people whose backgrounds were not scary were willing to behave calmly and do things. The starting point was low, but He has more stamina, so Kong Youming is somewhat optimistic about the young man around him who will not stop at Li Tan in the background 100% of the time, but he doesn't have high expectations for how far he can go. While it makes sense, I hope in my heart that Li Dami, who will be so prosperous in the future, will be able to read the current incense.The office where Zhao Jiadi will stay in the future is not big. There are 8 desks, all of which are equipped with desktop computers. When they saw Director Kong, everyone stood up instinctively. One, is a girl, probably not many years after graduating from university, and probably has about two years of work experience in prefecture-level cities and counties. She seized the opportunity to enter the Provincial Development and Reform Commission. Retired half-hundred elders, unsmiling, just looking at their appearance and demeanor, they are quite "carrying".Kong Youming gave a general introduction, but Zhao Jiadi nodded and smiled once before introducing anyone. Sunshine is sincere. For this reason, Zhao Jiadi has practiced many times in front of the mirror in the Regent bathroom of the World Trade Center. The initial impression is too important. Don't ask for sharpness, at least you have to be above the passing line.Li Tan's face-to-face instruction is very clear, neither humble nor overbearing is empty and inappropriate, the most correct way is to be a little lower than this.Working hard in the agency is the premise of doing one's own work. On this premise, do more and do less depending on the mood and the situation, but most of the experience still depends on how the people around you do. Those words and deeds are invisible wealth.Zhao Jiadi kept it in his heart.

Everyone in the office heard that this young man surnamed Zhao was a 170-year-old in the National Examination, and finally saw the true face of Lushan, and seemed a little disappointed. He just looked like an ordinary young man.However, Kong Youming, the head of the general infrastructure department, could personally recommend him, either because Kong Chu had a love for talents, or because he had some background.Kong Youming didn't stay too long, and left directly. In the past, the General Office of Infrastructure Construction was the key office of the province, and it held the power of life and death for review and inspection in many fields. The ground can be beautiful, but there is no way that the position is not stable enough. The qualifications are there, but these years have not cultivated any direct lineages that can be sold, and the two deputies have been semi-publicly. Not long ago, Li Tan, the most popular upstart in the provincial capital, suddenly came to the Development and Reform Commission to inspect the work. The stingy Secretary Li highly praised the recent work of the infrastructure department for the first time, and even praised Kong Youming by name. Goofs and dogs jumped, many people who were too lazy to say hello to Kong Youming's level in the past squeezed out bright smiles, and they made appointments for tea and fishing. Times have come and gone, in fact, Li Tan's level is not too high , even the Provincial Standing Committee did not enter, but no one is really blind. Leaving the hilltop of Secretary Huang, Li Tan can still climb up exceptionally, which shows that this is the real person in Beijing. The standard investigation sequence, God knows who will be the list members in this sequence, who will become the faces that often appear in CCTV news broadcasts in 15 to 20 years?Zhao Jiadi sat opposite the old man surnamed Qian. He didn't know until later that the old man was a little legend in the Provincial Development and Reform Commission and was a re-employment consultant.Zhao Jiadi handed over all the things that should be handed in, took all the things that should be taken, and then sat down. The ratio of men to women in the office is 5 to 4. As for which hills they belong to, of course, there are still clouds and fog. , not to mention the big backer stretching out from the small hill, Zhao Jiadi is not interested in these, people respect me one point and I respect others two points, but he caught a subtle detail, that girl of the same age seems to be very wary of him, Zhao Jiadi laughed at himself, it is human nature, there are too many monks and too little food, no one wants someone to compete with him for his job.You can have lunch in the cafeteria, or you can go home to eat and take a nap, but there is a simple folding bed in the office. Zhao Jiadi doesn’t know whether this is a routine or an extra benefit. He gets off work at 5 pm, but he will work overtime from time to time on weekends. I believe not many people are willing to rush With that little overtime pay to give up the weekend vacation.

Zhao Jiadi sat quietly in front of the computer, thinking that he could buy a small potted plant when he went back at night, as a celebration of his first day of Gongmen practice.

Zhao Jiadi doesn't know how many people of the same age have the mentality on the first day when they enter the government agency, are they full of ambition or trembling?Ambitious or treading on eggshells?But for him, he only thought of the villagers he met and knew well when he was teaching in Guanyin Village, there were ignorant children who were curious about the city, there were old people who were quietly waiting to close their eyes and had never been to a big city in their lives, and there were many people who lived in the city through hardships. Middle-aged men and women who work to support their families, these people will care about a few cents, and the small things of sesame and mung beans need to be taken care of for them. Don't dare to forget to send stamps and envelopes every time you reply.But it was these people who, when the support teacher Hu Li passed away, the whole village wore plain clothes and knelt in front of the grave. This made Zhao Jiadi firmly believe that he should be worthy of all these people.

Zhao Jiadi was eating in the cafeteria at noon. For no reason, he remembered the words of his master Chen Pingan, "Today there is no alcohol or tobacco, and the dishes are served with books", and he lowered his head and smiled.
