Power and Wealth - 1966
morning.
Temporary Office of the Secretary of the County Party Committee.
Dong Xuebin put down the newspaper and walked briskly around the room with his hands on his back, one circle, two circle, three circle, and finally picked up the phone on the table.
“Hey, Xiao Su.”
“Secretary Dong.”
“Come to me right now.”
“Uh, okay, I’ll be there at once.”
When the phone hung up, Dong Xuebin forcibly calmed his mind, took a deep breath and forgot to sit on the chair, and rubbed his forehead, closed his eyes, and his mind started to turn quickly. The artifacts were unearthed ahead of schedule by Dong Xuebin. Unexpectedly, there was no plan and preparation for this in a short period of time. He was really caught off guard, but these are not problems, because Dong Xuebin has already had a few months of future development. Even if you have not prepared in advance, it is not too late to prepare. The ancient tomb was unearthed in advance. This is a good thing. Now Dong Xuebin’s position has been consolidated, and all aspects of Jiao’s neighboring county are basically mature. The so-called everything Kubei only owes the east wind, and it’s time to get here, and it’s good to come early.
The door opened.
Su Yan ran in, panting, “Secretary, are you looking for me?” Hearing Secretary Dong’s voice on the phone was wrong, Su Yan knew something was going on, so he ran a little faster and worked as Dong Xuebin’s secretary for so long. He also understands Secretary Dong better.
Dong Xuebin pushed the newspaper on the table forward, “You know that villagers dug up antiques in Qingluan Mountain, right?”
Su Yan was startled, and stepped forward and glanced at the third page of the newspaper, “Oh, I know this. It was yesterday. I also heard someone say something from below.”
Dong Xuebin knocked on the table and said: “It’s all about yesterday, so why don’t you report to me?”
Ah?
report?
Is this still used for reporting?
Su Yan hurriedly said, “I thought it was not a big deal. You were going back to Beijing for urgent business, so I didn’t dare to disturb you. I’m sorry, Secretary Dong, because I didn’t do things well and neglected.” In fact, Su Yan didn’t understand why Secretary Dong. Suddenly mentioned this news, found an antique? Is it because the antiques have not been confirmed, and even if the appraisal results are affirmative, it is not enough. There are more antiques accidentally unearthed and discovered every day across the country. What is this? He doesn’t know why Secretary Dong attaches so much importance, but after thinking about it this way, Su Yan still did not refute anything. After explaining the simplest and quickest sentence, he took the initiative to admit the mistake, because it is meaningless to argue with the leader. The leader must criticize you. There is a reason to criticize you, even if there is no reason, even if it is for no reason, Su Yan has to listen.
Dong Xuebin was actually not angry, that is just a few words. He also knew that Su Yan was not to be blamed for this incident, and Su Yan could not know how much the discovery of this antique will have on their neighboring county in the future. It’s not your problem if you are so serious. I’m just telling you that if you have information on this aspect in the future, report it to me as soon as possible, and don’t delay for a moment.”
Su Yan said solemnly: “I understand the secretary.”
Dong Xuebin looked at his watch and said, “It’s noon too. Let’s eat first. Then you will inform everyone that the county committee standing committee will be held on time at one o’clock in the afternoon. Then there will be…” Dong Xuebin paused, “Call the head of the county cultural bureau here. , And the village secretary of the village at the foot of Qingluan Mountain, let them attend the meeting together. I want to listen to a detailed report on this matter. You can say hello to them in advance.”
Su Yan was taken aback, “…Okay, I’ll get in touch.”
Dong Xuebin nodded, “Okay, that’s it.”
“Then you are busy, I’m going to inform.” Su Yan turned around and respectfully closed the door for Secretary Dong before leaving.
Su Yan was actually quite puzzled, and what was in her heart was all suspicion. Why should the leaders of the Cultural Bureau attend the meeting? Is this really that important? At first, Su Yan felt that his political sense might not be enough. After all, Secretary Dong had already proved his work ability with practical actions more than once. Everyone knows that this is a very “god” leader, and every decision is made right. For example, when the new county party committee compound was demolished, the policy had not yet come down, and the Disciplinary Committee did not come. There was no warning at all, but Secretary Dong noticed it in advance and ordered the demolition of the new county party compound immediately. , Only allowed them to escape in the neighboring county of Jiao and were hardly affected by that incident. No one doubted or questioned Secretary Dong’s sense of smell. But after walking out of Secretary Dong’s office and thinking for a long time, Su Yan still didn’t figure out what was special about this matter.
noon.
Dong Xuebin went out and took the box lunch and came back to eat. He was planning to eat while he was eating. He didn’t think about the meal at all. In the end, he ate clean. Dong Xuebin also subconsciously picked vegetables in his mouth with chopsticks, and noticed that the lunch box was empty. , Dong Xuebin let out a laugh, and threw a lunch box with a surname.
One o’clock.
The Standing Committee of the County Party Committee was held for the second time this month.
Dong Xuebin was the last meeting room to enter. When he came, the room became quieter. Dong Xuebin noticed that there were a few more new faces in this temporary meeting room than before. One of them, Dong Xuebin, knew it was the County Cultural Bureau. Director Wu Guoquan, and the other two Dong Xuebin had never met, a young man, 80% of the village secretary of Qingbei Village, and a middle-aged man, who had never met.
Su Yan immediately closed the door.
Dong Xuebin also sat in the first place at this time. He didn’t rush to announce the start of the meeting, but picked up the cup on the table and took a few sips of tea slowly. Dong Xuebin would definitely not be able to do this in the first few days when he took office. Generally speaking, he would announce the start of the meeting after sitting down. However, after such a long period of stability and struggle, Dong Xuebin has already occupied a large area in the neighboring county of Jiao. Part of the advantage is basically the situation in the county, so it doesn’t matter what happens. He will announce the meeting whenever he wants to. No one has said anything.
This subtle move also made Wu Guoquan and the other two people who attended the Standing Committee for the first time today to see who is in Jiao’s neighboring county now has the final say.
After a while.
Dong Xuebin said slowly: “Let’s have a meeting.”
Several county committee standing committee members reported on the work of the county in order. Today, there is nothing worth voting or discussing. They are basically reports and summaries. The focus is also on the work results of last month’s investment promotion cultural festival. Just one hour later. The report is over, and the summary is over. Everyone said nothing, waiting for Secretary Dong to say something. After all, the people attending the meeting today were a bit surprised. Of course, Dong Xuebin did not inform everyone in advance, but looking at this situation, the fool knew what Secretary Dong had. Important things.
Seeing everyone finished talking, Dong Xuebin looked up, “Let me say one thing.”
When everyone heard it, all their expressions concentrated, and they looked at Dong Xuebin and waited for him to say.
Dong Xuebin beckoned, Su Yan took out more than a dozen newspapers and distributed them to many county committee members. Then Dong Xuebin said: “This is today’s morning paper. It happened yesterday. I believe many people should listen to it. Having said that, antiques were dug up by villagers on Qingluan Mountain.”
Zhang Dongfang looked at the newspaper and said, “The morning news is also broadcast, I have read it.”
Many other people also have impressions, but they don’t understand what Secretary Dong means. They found antiques? What happened then?
Dong Xuebin ignored everyone’s doubts and looked at Wu Guoquan, director of the County Cultural Bureau, “Director Wu, can you tell me the specific situation?”
Wu Guoquan hurriedly straightened up and sat upright, “Yes, Secretary Dong, we also got the antique last night, and it was sent to us by Qingbei Village Secretary Xiao Cheng.” He glanced at the young man next to him. Obviously, this person is Xiao Cheng, the college student village official in the newspaper, and then he introduced the middle-aged man next to him, “This is the director of the County Cultural Center Liu. Now the antiques have been taken over by the Cultural Center.”
Dong Xuebin asked: “Has the generation been dated?”
Curator Liu replied: “Because it was too late yesterday and we all got off work, so the identification work that started this morning, our staff are working hard.”
Dong Xuebin frowned and said, “So the age hasn’t been determined yet?”
“The authenticity and age have not yet been determined.” Curator Liu said: “Our equipment is limited, and our professional surnames are also limited, so it will take some time.” Jiaolin County failed to apply for a county-level city. To a certain extent, the reason is cultural. They don’t have any unique culture of their own, and their historical surnames are a bit worse. There are no monuments and cultural heritages that can be sold. Therefore, the equipment in the cultural relics department of Jiaolin County is also good for professionals. No matter, it is definitely not comparable to other places. There is no demand in this area. Naturally, there is no need to purchase any excellent equipment. Otherwise, the purchase of equipment and the introduction of cultural relics talents, what is the use? When to display? That is a waste of resources, it is not necessary.
Seeing that Secretary Dong’s expression was not very good, Wu Guoquan, Director of the Cultural Bureau, quickly added: “Secretary, in fact, the authenticity can almost be broken out. It is corrupted like that. It is still buried in a mountain that no one knows. It is logically inferred. There may be a possibility of fraud. The bronze mirror should be real. In the age…well, there is a staff member at the cultural center who initially suspected that it was something from the Han Dynasty.”
Curator Liu wears eyes, and he looks like an old and pedantic feeling. He speaks and does things more carefully, and is also very true. He said in a convenient way: “It’s not confirmed yet, it’s just suspicion. Further identification work is still being done.”
Zhang Dongfang said: “Han Dynasty?”
Executive Deputy County Magistrate Xu Zhuang said: “That’s not a young age. If you are sure, then you can exhibit in the cultural center.”
Everyone said so, but everyone’s face still didn’t mean to pay attention to it. They still didn’t take this seriously, and I felt that Secretary Dong was a little too fussy. (To be continued.)
