Chapter 419: The issue of giving gifts during the Chinese New Year

The Spring Festival is approaching, and Guanhe’s festive atmosphere has also been shown. After a heavy snowfall, it has sunken for several days. Guanhe Mayor’s Office Meeting was held.

"The Spring Festival is coming, and all preparations must be done well. In order to give the people of the city a stable and peaceful festival, I hope that all departments will check the work they have done again. The central government has proposed that stability is overwhelming. If there is a problem during the festival, it will not only be a problem for the department leaders, but we must bear the corresponding responsibilities if we have to sit."

Zhou Caiqin spoke loudly. Recently, with Wang Zerong's cooperation, he has also found some feeling of mayor. Facing the arrival of the Spring Festival, Zhou Caiqin made arrangements for the government's holiday work at the mayor's office meeting.

Seeing everyone listening attentively, Zhou Caiqin said again: "What is the most feared thing during festivals? Sudden incidents occur. All departments should carefully check it out and do the work that should be done well. Your comrades in charge of petitions should check it out again. For those who may go to petition, you should do a good job, and those who should be comforted should be comforted, and those who can help them solve the problem should be solved."

After all the work was arranged, Zhou Caiqin looked at Wang Zerong and said, "Zerong, come to my place after the meeting."

When Wang Zerong heard Zhou Caiqin call him over, he didn't know what would happen.

After walking into Zhou Caiqin's office, Zhou Caiqin greeted Wang Zerong and sat down and said, "Zerong, there is a big thing that needs to be discussed with you. Look at this matter, the Spring Festival is coming. This New Year greeting work is a big thing, so we still have to come up with a solution."

When Wang Zerong heard about the New Year greetings, he felt a headache. This was really a difficult thing. Reciting etiquette is a tradition of Chinese people. During festivals, this New Year greetings is not a trivial matter.

Wang Zerong said, "Or what if it is done uniformly by the municipal party committee?"

Zhou Caiqin said: "The municipal party committee has the method of greetings from the municipal party committee. The government cannot ignore it, let's do it separately."

I knew Zhou Caiqin’s idea, but I didn’t want to get along with the municipal party committee.

This New Year greeting is still very beneficial. If you do it well, you will rely on this for your progress next year. In the officialdom, even the most upright person will not be careless when doing this.

Seeing that Wang Zerong did not insist anymore, Zhou Caiqin said: "Zerong, look, I have calculated initially that this New Year's greeting gift is not a decimal. Every leader in the province must pay homage to the leaders of various departments, major personnel of various departments, and staff of various departments. In addition, the main leaders of brother cities, these are from superior departments, and the vast number of cadres and masses in Guanhe also need to pay New Year's greetings."

Wang Zerong said: "I have to spend a lot of money again!"

Zhou Caiqin also said helplessly: "This is nothing to do. New Year's greetings are just for a feeling. Although the superiors do not care about this gift, if everyone goes to pay New Year's greetings, only we Guanhe will not go, it is difficult to explain this matter, right?"

Wang Zerong was clear about this. He had been the county party secretary and knew a lot of things here. I remember that when he was still driving the river around the city and countryside, he followed He Guoxiong to greet a deputy county magistrate. He sat in a small car and waited at the door of the deputy county magistrate's house. He waited until twelve o'clock to see him come back. The parking space of the car was even more particular. He could not park in a conspicuous place. He parked in a dark place. When giving gifts, he secretly made it as if he had done something bad!

"Zerong, I think this is the case. You are responsible for the preparation of gifts. Just take some of Guanhe's specialties. The packaging should be exquisite and the content should be realistic. After equipping the gifts, we have to go to the province to give gifts for a while."

Wang Zerong knew that it would be impossible not to do this, and said, "Okay, you have to hurry up."

After leaving Zhou Caiqin's office, Wang Zerong called Deng Jin, the director of the government office, to his office.

Deng Jinzhao respectfully said to Wang Zerong: "Mayor Wang, what's the matter with me?"

"Old Deng, you are the director of the old government office. How did you do gifts for Spring Festival gifts in previous years?"

Deng Jinzhao said: "Mayor Wang, this is a major event for previous leaders. The government used to have several designated locations. I heard from Mayor Wang this year."

Wang Zerong signaled Deng Jinzhao to sit down and said, "Tell me about the situation in previous years."

Deng Mazhao sat half his butt on the sofa and said, "Take the previous year as an example. At that time, he wrapped the entire Lishan in Guoshugou, and refined the black bone chicken from Heishishan as a gift..."

Seeing Deng Jinzhao counting the gift bit by bit, Wang Zerong was also surprised. After a long time, he found that the gift was not just one or two types, but had different specifications for different people.

After random calculations, Wang Zerong felt that the money spent on this matter was really not a decimal.

"Old Deng, I think you will handle the gifts today. I only need the result. Of course, I still have to save what I can."

Deng Jinzhao said: "You can save some money from the Guanhe River, but the provincial leaders cannot save money. Not only can they save money, but they also need to be a little more than last year."

Wang Zerong said: "This is the case. You can come up with a plan first and I'll check it out before deciding."

After leaving Wang Zerong's office, Deng Jinzhao was in a very good mood. He continued to do this this year, but his own benefits were indispensable!

Sitting in the office, Deng Jinzhao pondered for a while, calculating the situation everywhere.

"Old Du, come here."

"Old Hu, how are your wild yams going? Come here with some samples."

"Jing Dazui, Black Bone Chicken is in demand this time."

...

After Deng Jinzhao called one by one, he sat there and started writing. Wang Zerong had to write the plan he wanted carefully. This was not something that could be careless.

After writing for a while, Deng Jinzhao took the written thing to Wang Zerong's office.

"Mayor Wang, I have referred to the situation in previous years and made a plan. You can see first. If there are any missing places, I will use them to change them."

After taking Deng Jinzhao's plan, Wang Zerong saw that the beginning was the gift list of the provincial party committee member.

Three black bone chickens, one rooster, and two hens.

Seeing these three chickens, Wang Zerong looked at Deng Jinzhao with some confusion and said, "Old Deng, I don't understand, how could it be given away like this?"

Deng Jinzhao smiled and said, "This is a center, two basic points. Mayor Wang, think about it. Of course, a family can only be a man. No matter how many hens there are, they must be around this center. Some leaders are just here. The red flags in the family will not fall, and the colorful flags are fluttering outside. However, no matter how you do it, this center cannot be shaken."

Wang Zerong looked at Deng Jinzhao in shock. He was too good at contacting him!

Then, looking down, there were ten boxes of big pears in Fruitshugou.

"Well, Guoshugou's big pear is a specialty of Guanhe, so it's good to give it to you." Wang Zerong praised.

Deng Jinzhao said: "This is called "Ten Complete Pears". Ten boxes of pears also have the same meaning of perfection in doing things."

Ten pieces of wild yam, Lianshan fairy mist, white mercury, and bamboo and mountain green bamboo shoots each.

Seeing that these four are Guanhe’s specialties, Wang Zerong said: “What are the statements about these four things?”

Deng Jinzhao said: "There is no special statement, that is, four basic principles. Every time you give a gift, these four things must not be missing. If it is missing, some leaders will ask.

Wang Zerong looked at it again and found that there were almost more than ten kinds of things, all of which were specialties from various parts of Guanhe.

Knowing that Deng Jinzhao is a person who always does this, although he also knows that he will get a lot of benefits from it, Wang Zerong was still a little annoyed by this matter and said to Deng Jinzhao: "I see, these are not a decimal place to add up. You need to prepare enough supplies and leave room for space."

Deng Jinzhao said: "Mayor Wang, please rest assured, I will definitely work properly in this matter."

After leaving Wang Zerong's office, there were already many people sitting in Deng Jinzhao's office.

Deng Jinzhao said: "The Spring Festival is coming, and the government needs to provide some benefits. You can quote first. When you arrive in the conference room tomorrow, we will study the ordering situation."

When these people heard Deng Jinzhao's call, they rushed over, but they had to talk about it tomorrow. Those who understand were already thinking about how to discuss this matter with Deng Jinzhao. Of course, the advantage must be taken out.

There is a lot of demand for the government during the holidays, and these bosses compete very well. There are too many people who asked Deng Jinzhao for dinner that night.

Early on the third morning, Deng Jin summoned Wang Zerong's office.

"Mayor Wang, the order has been completed. I will go to various places to check the quality and packaging conditions."

Wang Zerong said: "I'm leaving this matter to you. If something happens, you have to be responsible."

After taking Deng Jinzhao's order form, Wang Zerong had to sigh. The government's purchase volume during the holidays is really not a decimal.

Deng Jinzhao said again: "Mayor Wang, this is a gift given on behalf of the government. Your leaders also have to give each other gifts. This is not a decimal, it is all a work requirement, so I have prepared some for you."

Wang Zerong said: "It's not good to do this. We cannot do things that violate the principles."

Deng Jinzhao said: "Mayor Wang, this is not a violation of the principle. You may not know that this is a tradition in Guanhe. The gifts given by the Standing Committee are prepared by the office. Then you can go to the designated orchard to pick up goods."

Sometimes when I hear that I am a member of the Standing Committee, Wang Zerong can't say anything else. If he says this, he will probably offend the Standing Committee members. It is best not to do such things.

Seeing that Wang Zerong had agreed to this matter, Deng Jinzhao said: "Mayor Wang, just go to various agency sales points to directly pull your gifts. Tell me how much you want, and I will help you pull it."

A corruption that is open and open!
Chapter completed!
