Chapter 1450: Rong Xin Sets a Trap

a Fei smiled and said, “Comrade Haiyan is truly outstanding. Not only is she beautiful, but I hear she is also very capable.” 。"Our Xiao Shuji selected Comrade Haiyan from Tianhuang Town, a real pearl...Xiao Zheng stretched out his hand and firmly grasped Wen Yilong's hand: "Secretary Wen, I've been waiting for you to say that!"Wen Yilong had made up his mind and smiled easily: "I'll go prepare to take Wu Qin away now." 。"So fast" Xiao Zheng asked. 。Wen Yilong said: "Since it's already decided, it's better to do it sooner than later!" Xiao Zheng saw Wen Yilong transform from "gentle as boiled shrimp dumplings" to decisive and swift, feeling a sense of relief in his heart. He said: "Very good! I await your good news!" Xiao Zheng sent Wen Yilong to the door. Seeing Wen Yilong stride away with such vigor and energy, he couldn't help but smile. 。At this moment, Zhao Rongxin, the director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, came out of his office and saw Xiao Zheng. He pretended to jog over to him and said: "Secretary Xiao, I have something to report to you." 。Xiao Zheng glanced at Zhao Rongxin, the director of the office responsible for administrative affairs. This official had already been targeted by the disciplinary inspection commission, and Xiao Zheng was determined to investigate him. Every official must be held accountable for their corruption, otherwise, a place would rot from within. 。So, even though Zhao Rongxin behaved respectfully in front of him, Xiao Zheng wouldn't have any mercy. 。But he was still very polite: “Director Zhao, if you have anything, please come in.” 。"Oh" 。Zhao Rongxin was very respectful and followed Xiao Zheng into the conference room. Seeing Xiao Zheng sit down, Zhao Rongxin sat down beside him, placing his hands neatly on the conference table: "Secretary Xiao, your office is ready and you can move in at any time." 。After some time of renovations, the office is finally finished. 。Xiao Zheng asked, "Is the office area 20 square meters" Zhao Rongxin nodded. "Strictly following Secretary Xiao's requirements, the actual usable area is within 20 square meters." 。“The actual usable area is not the same as the building area. Xiao Zheng understands this, Zhao Rongxin is trying to please him everywhere.” 。Xiao Zheng said, "Good, I understand." 。I'll have Xiao Yang help me move the stuff over later. 。Zhao Rongxin then said, “Secretary Xiao, why don’t I take you there now If there’s anything the secretary isn’t satisfied with, we can adjust it right away! After all, some of the arrangements are just based on the designer's and our opinions. There might be places that aren't satisfactory. Please have a look at them yourself, Secretary Xiao.” 。"An office, as long as it's functional. " 。Xiao Zheng has been busy with work these days. As for his office, he only asked to reduce the office space and didn't make any other specific requirements. 。But now Zhao Rongxin insisted strongly, so he said, "Since you said so, let's spend five minutes to take a look." 。"Zhao Rongxin smiled and nodded, “Good,” he stood up and led the way. 。Xiao Zheng arrived at the door and called for the liaison officer, Yang Xuehu, and together they came to his new office. 。The door was ajar. Zhao Rongxin pushed it open, and the three of them went in. 。A pleasant and refreshing fragrance fills the air, it seems like they've done some air freshening. 。Although the office space is 146 square meters smaller than Jin Tiezhu's previous office, the luxurious feel remains unchanged. 。The coffee-colored solid wood flooring provides a pleasingly soft feeling underfoot. The surrounding walls are finished with solid wood wainscoting and wallpaper, and on the pillars of the floor-to-ceiling windows, framed artwork adds a touch of visual delight. 。The sofa set is a bit smaller than before, but it's still an exquisite genuine leather sofa. On the wooden tea table in front, a set of Kung Fu tea sets and high-end tea leaves are already ready. 。Desks are no longer following the grand and imposing style, but instead taking a more refined and practical approach. They come equipped with everything you need, from stationery organizers to storage boxes. 。Besides, behind the office door there's a small door leading to a separate bathroom fully equipped. 。On the left side of the desk, there was a small curtain. I thought it was a window curtain, but when I pulled it open, I found a hidden futon inside. It's perfect for napping. 。And by the wall and on the window sill, green plants of various sizes in blue-and-white porcelain vases add a touch of life to the office. 。Although the area is reduced, it still has all the essential facilities and maintains the same high standard. 。However, Xiao Zheng's brows furrowed deeply. He had inadvertently assumed that after he proposed the requirement of "reducing the area and keeping things simple," Zhao Rongxin would implement it thoroughly. 。Unexpectedly, Zhao Rongxin came up with a "low-key luxury" decoration scheme in a roundabout way! The decoration costs must have been considerable. 。Xiao Zheng turned to Zhao Rongxin: "Director Zhao, was this renovation done according to my previous requirements" Zhao Rongxin immediately bowed his head and said: "Secretary Xiao, it was done according to Secretary Xiao's previous requirements. The area has been reduced, and it's as simple as possible." 。Secretary Xiao, is there anything else you are not satisfied with, such as needing to add anything, or if the materials are not good enough somewhere, we can immediately make corrections..."

"Director Zhao!" Xiao Zheng interrupted him and said, "Is this kind of decoration simple It's already too luxurious, it doesn't match my original intention." 。I think these tea sets and murals are unnecessary. The sofa and desk are too high-end. 。"Zhao Rongxin immediately said: "Secretary Xiao, we can't lower the standards any further." 。We all know that Secretary Xiao is a honest and incorruptible official. However, you have reduced your office from 166 square meters to only 20 square meters. If the decoration of the office is too shabby, it will be worse than an office of a town mayor. 。We know you, Secretary Xiao, don't care about these superficial things. But after all, you are the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and from time to time you have to meet with some leaders, bosses and merchants from other places. If your office is too shabby, it will give people a sense of distrust in the Dongcao Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government! Even make them feel that it is disrespectful to them. 。This will affect work. 。。We didn't spend extravagantly during the decoration. 。On this point, Secretary Xiao, please rest assured. 。As for the decoration costs, Xiao Zheng was also concerned, so he asked: "How much did it cost to renovate the office this time" Zhao Rongxin immediately replied: "Secretary Xiao, the renovation this time cost a total of 205,300 yuan, including all the expenses." 。If we were to include the conference room and expand Secretary Xiao's office, it would cost around 100,000. 。This time, because the original 166 square meters was divided into 8 offices, each office's partitions, wiring, etc. all need to be re-arranged, so the cost went up. 。Xiao Zheng said: "Let's go take a look at the other offices too." 。"Good, Secretary Xiao. The other offices are all ready too." 。Zhao Rongxin's face lit up with joy. "Just bring your bag and you can go straight to work." 。Xiao Zheng went to see the other seven newly partitioned offices, which also had solid wood floors. Desks, chairs, tea cabinets, telephones, filing cabinets, and plants were all arranged. 。Xiao Zheng turned his head and asked Zhao Rongxin: "Director Zhao, in this way, can the office of the Commission Affairs be effectively resolved" "Yes, absolutely." 。“Zhao Rongxin said, 'Everyone is sincerely grateful to Secretary Xiao for thinking of us, and we are also eager to move into the new office.'” 。As soon as Secretary Xiao moves, everyone else can move too. 。"And then Xiao Zheng asked, "You said it only cost a total of 205,300 yuan" Seeing that Xiao Zheng seemed somewhat doubtful, Zhao Rongxin immediately said, "Secretary Xiao, please wait a moment, I'll go get the settlement statement." 。"Having said that, Zhao Rongxin ran back to his office and brought back a settlement sheet after a while. It had both a summary and a detailed list. Xiao Zheng scanned the details with keen eyes. His office sofa, desk, tea set, porcelain vase, and plants were all listed. They weren't expensive, it seemed like they were just replicas," 。

The renovation allocated 7 offices to the commission staff and kept the total cost at 205,300 yuan. This renovation cannot be considered a waste. 。Seeing Xiao Zheng's expression relax, Zhao Rongxin said, “Xiao Secretary, if you don't need anything else to be moved into your new office, I can arrange for people to help you.” 。Once you've moved, the other offices can get started. Otherwise, if you tell them to move, they won't dare. 。"Well, let's wait a while and then move," Xiao Zheng also hoped that other staff members could move into the new office as soon as possible. "The allocation of other offices is scientific and reasonable, right" "Secretary Xiao, please rest assured" 。Zhao Rongxin said, "After expanding the new office space this time, there are 2-3 people in each office. The allocation of offices is first free choice, and if there is a conflict, a lottery is held. Everyone has no objections." 。"Xiao Zheng nodded and said, "Okay" 。"Then I will arrange for people to move Secretary Xiao's office," said Zhao Rongxin. 。"

"There's nothing much in my office anyway," Xiao Zhang said, "I'll just have Xiaoyang bring it over later, it'll only take a few minutes." "> 。Also, I've added a set of tea tables, wall paintings, and plants to my office. If you need any in other offices, feel free to take them. 。"Secretary Xiao, this won't do!" 。Zhao Rongxin said with difficulty, "Xiao Secretary, to separate such a large area from your own office for everyone to use, the people in the office are already too reluctant." 。If you took out things like the coffee table and paintings, would anyone dare to take them Besides, it doesn't look right for ordinary staff offices to have a coffee table and paintings. 。The secretary's office, rather than being what is needed. 。We, in Yuezhou and Dongcao, are known for our Kung Fu tea. This practice has a history spanning hundreds or even thousands of years. If important businessmen arrive, they expect to be served Kung Fu tea; otherwise, it's considered rude! On this point, I hope Secretary Xiao will adapt to local customs! Even if it's just for the development of Dongcao!” Zhao Rongxin seemed reasonable, but Xiao Zheng still felt these weren't the main points. Hospitality isn't just about serving tea; it's about providing business incentives and practical solutions to merchants. He asked, "Is there a possibility of refunding the decoration company" Zhao Rongxin was even more embarrassed: “Secretary Xiao, recently, Dongcao has experienced an ‘return tide’ due to the financial crisis, with many migrant workers leaving Dongcao. Decoration companies also face labor shortages and need to settle wages for workers early. Therefore, we have already settled with them." 。"It's not easy to return the things to them. Besides, it's also difficult to renovate now. They are doing it at the government agreed price, so they haven't made much money..."

"Then let's just do that." 。Xiao Zheng didn't want to cause trouble for the decoration company on this matter, so he said, "Then, Xiao Yang, we'll move offices later." 。"Yes, Secretary Xiao," said Yang Xuehu. 。Xiao Zheng didn't have much to move in the conference room, and he got his new office set up in a short while. Zhao Rongxin also helped him all the way. When Xiao Zheng moved into his new office, he left. 。As soon as Zhao Rongxin saw the door to Xiao Zheng's office close, he immediately went to Deputy Secretary Cui Tingjian's office to report. 。 Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!ing, Xu Changyun came to the office as usual. Just as he was about to make a cup of tea, his door was suddenly flung open with a loud "bang". 。Xu Changyun calmly turned his head, as he had expected, i...
