As the new county chief was taking office, many officials had arrived today; almost everybody who could make it was present at the countywide meeting of all three levels of cadres. Now, they had all gathered here in the cafeteria to eat.
After everyone was seated, those who knew each other gathered together at tables, chatting. Watching the dishes being served one after another, the atmosphere grew even warmer.
Among those who could become leaders in the township, who didn’t have a good capacity for alcohol? Once the bottles were opened, everyone started pouring drinks.
When Mr. Ji Yang and his group entered, the officials all stood up to greet them. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NoveIꜰire.net
Secretary Bao smiled at everyone, "Today is the day County Chief Ji has taken office, and from now on, we’ll be working together. Everyone must show County Chief Ji the warmth of Chunshui County. If anyone fails to do so properly, I’ll be holding them accountable."
"Secretary Bao, don’t worry. We’ll certainly do well."
"We must make County Chief Ji feel the enthusiasm of Chunshui County’s cadres."
Everyone was talking at once, and the atmosphere heated up.
He Feng smiled at Secretary Bao, "Why do I feel like your enthusiasm is a bit too much?"
Secretary Bao laughed, "Minister He should not speak lightly. Our county’s cadres have always been straightforward in character."
He Feng looked at Ji Yang and smiled, "County Chief Ji, you really have to be careful with your drinking today."
Ji Yang just laughed, "I can indeed feel the comrades’ enthusiasm."
Everyone laughed and sat down.
Looking again at the dishes on the table, Ji Yang sighed inwardly; this was hardly the appearance of an impoverished county. Even back in Qingyuan Village, he wouldn’t dare to eat .
However, Ji Yang naturally wouldn’t say anything at such a time.
Someone had already helped pour the drinks.
"Minister He, since you’ve come personally this time, let me first, on behalf of the cadres and masses of Chunshui County, offer you a toast," Secretary Bao was the first to stand and raise his glass.
He Feng glanced again at Ji Yang; he realized that Secretary Bao truly did not regard Ji Yang highly, making it clear to everyone that he was the one who represented the people here.
Still, to He Feng’s surprise, Ji Yang did not show any dissatisfaction. It was as if he couldn’t quite grasp the situation.
Climbing to the position of a county chief, He Feng did not believe Ji Yang lacked insight. Given that, the only explanation was that Ji Yang was very deep, observing everything closely.
"Secretary Bao is right. Let’s all toast Minister He."
He Feng smiled, "I’ve indeed felt everyone’s enthusiasm. Let’s all drink this glass, hoping we can all work together well in our future tasks."
Everyone drank their glasses all at once.
Ji Yang naturally drank his glass as well.
Secretary Bao said, "Having Comrade Ji Yang assigned to our county by the organization has infused new energy into our county. With Comrade Ji Yang’s arrival, I believe the development of our county in all aspects will be accelerated. This is a good thing. Going forward, everyone should follow the direction. Now, let’s all toast Comrade Ji Yang."
Seeing everyone stand to toast, Ji Yang smiled, "I am new to Chunshui County and not very familiar with the situation here. I will quickly familiarize myself with the work here and develop it well along with everyone."
After saying these, he looked at Secretary Bao, "Secretary Bao is familiar with Chunshui County. I will still need Secretary Bao’s help in the future."
Secretary Bao smiled, "If we unite, I believe Chunshui County will only get better."
"Then, let’s all drink this glass."
Ji Yang directly drank up his glass.
