Chapter 514 – Transfer Order is out!

Afternoon.

The air conditioner made Yu Meixia’s apartment very cooling.

Dong Xuebing had wanted to stay for dinner. Still, the County’s Deputy Party Secretary Cao called him to go to the County Party office. Dong Xuebing and Cao Xupeng have a good relationship. The latter will call him directly if he needs him for anything. But he had got his secretary to call him instead. This means it should be work-related and might be about his transfer.

Yu Meixia walks out of the kitchen. “Are you going out?”

“Yes. I need to go to the County Party Committee building now.” Dong Xuebing smiled. “Don’t prepare my dinner.”

Yu Meixia nodded and carried his bag and shoes over. “Drive safely.”

Dong Xuebing laughed. “You are as naggy as my mother. I know how to wear my shoes.”

Yu Meixia ignored him and continued to tie his shoelaces.

Dong Xuebing is touched. Yu Qianqian is in her room, and he stroked Sister Yu’s face gently. “Have you considered what I told you previously? I might be transferred to the City District, but I don’t know which Department yet. I am worried for you and Qianqian here. If you want to go with me, you can sell the apartment and buy one in the City District. Qianqian can also transfer to a school there, and your job… the Residents’ committee is hiring, right? Try applying for it, and I will help you get it.”

Yu Meixia nodded. “Ok. I will listen to you.”

Dong Xuebing pinched her cheeks lightly. “You will decide for yourself, and I am not forcing you.”

Yu Meixia blushed and bit her lips. “I would like to go too. Qianqian and I will follow wherever you go.” She felt more embarrassed after saying this.

“Alright. Haha… you can discuss with Qianqian later. Bye.”

“Ok. Let me walk you down.”

“No need. Go and prepare dinner for Qianqian.”

…….

It’s almost after work hours when Dong Xuebing arrives at the Party Committee Building.

Dong Xuebing entered the building and went upstairs to Secretary Cao’s Office. He asked his secretary, and the secretary told him that Secretary Cao is waiting for him inside.

Knock… knock… Dong Xuebing knocks on Deputy Party Secretary Cao’s office.

“Come in.”

“Secretary Cao, are you looking for me?”

Cao Xupeng laughed. “Have a seat, Xiao Dong.”

“Yes.” Dong Xuebing sat in front of Cao Xupeng’s desk.

Cao Xupeng asked about Xiao Dong’s health status and recovery. Not many people can survive after being stranded in the open seas for days. Dong Xuebing is human and not a fish. It’s already a miracle for him to survive half a month in the sea without food and water. But Yan Tai County’s residents are used to him performing miracles. If it’s someone else, he would be dead after three days. Let alone two weeks.

After this incident, everyone agrees that Dong Xuebing is tenacious.

Dong Xuebing laughed. “Thank you for your concern. I am fine. It’s been a week since I returned, and I even gained weight.”

“Good to hear that.” Cao Xupeng laughed. “You had given us a fright this time.”

Dong Xuebing left embarrassed as he doesn’t if Cao Xupeng is referring to the air crash incident or his sudden appearance at the funeral.

After chatting for a while, Cao Xupeng started to talk about work.

Cao Xupeng said in a serious tone. “Chief Dong. I am representing the Organization to speak to you today.”

Dong Xuebing straighten his back.

The Organization Work transfers should be monitored and handled by the Organization Department. But Cao Xupeng is the Deputy Secretary overseeing the Party members and can speak to Dong Xuebing. “Although you were only in the Investment Promotion Agency for three months, your achievements have surpassed all previous Chiefs. They can’t even achieve your results in a year, and the County Leaders are full of praises of you. Of course, you are not perfect. Some people had complained about the way you work to the Organization Department these few days. But this is not an issue. Even old Leaders like us make mistakes, let alone youngsters like you. It is not fair to disregard your achievements because of your conduct.”

Dong Xuebing is overjoyed.

Cao Xupeng saw Dong Xuebing smile, and he smiles too. “The County Leaders thought highly of you, but because of your relationship with Mayor Xie, the Organization wants me to talk to you. Do you have any intentions of changing a work environment?”

Dong Xuebing puts on a serious face. “I will follow the Organization’s arrangement.”

Cao Xupeng had said this as a formality, and the transfer had been confirmed. Dong Xuebing must accept it, and he also wants to leave Yan Tai County.

Cao Xupeng nodded. “Good. Your transfer order will be out soon. You must be prepared.”

“Thank you, Secretary Cao. I had learned a lot in the past year at Yan Tai County. I will not let the Organization down and will do my best, regardless of the hardships, to serve the people in my new role….” Dong Xuebing starts to declare his stance.

Cao Xupeng is amused as he thought to himself. “You had changed from a Mercedes to a Porsche. What hardships are you talking about?”

Dong Xuebing saw a few Staff members and Department Deputies after coming out from Secretary Cao’s office.

“Chief Dong. Congratulations.”

“Chief Dong, are you being promoted?”

“Congratulations.”

Dong Xuebing returned the greetings. News of his transfer spread quickly, but he still doesn’t know where he will be transferred.

Dong Xuebing walked out of the Party Committee Building and went to the County Government Building to look for Xie Huilan.

Dong Xuebing saw Secretary Hu watering the plants by the windows as he enters.

“Sister Hu, you have good taste.”

“Chief Dong, are you poking fun at me?”

“No… Is Huilan in her office?”

Hu Silian turns. “Mayor Xie is in a meeting and should be back in around twenty minutes. Do you want to wait for her? I will prepare tea.”

Dong Xuebing sat down and started chatting with Hu Silian.

“I heard you are going to be promoted.” Hu Silian joked. “You must be going to give everyone a treat. Don’t forget to invite me. I had been waiting for you to treat me. Hahaha…”

“I might forget everyone else, but I will not forget you.” Dong Xuebing laughed. “But I still don’t know where I will be transferred to.”

Hu Silian smiled and passed a teacup to Dong Xuebing. “I overheard that Fen Zhou City Nan Shan District; Guan Ming Sub-district Office Director position is available. You might be transferred there, and the order should be out these few days.”

Dong Xuebing blinked. “Sub-district Director?”

Hu Silian continued in a softer voice. “You are also going to be the Sub-district’s Party Secretary.”

The No. 1 of the Sub-district?

Dong Xuebing is overjoyed. He has a feeling that he will be transferred to a District office, and this is a good department for him.

Dong Xuebing is too young and inexperienced to be the No. 1 of a village town. But the Sub-district Office Director is the same rank and duties as the No. 1 of a village town. This is a good place to gain experience. This role is equivalent to a village town’s Party Secretary with some differences in authority. The Sub-district Office is not the highest tier Office and is a department under the District Government. Its duties are to execute and follow the District’s policies. This means it does not have as much say as a village town and has to listen to the District Government.

But Dong Xuebing is satisfied with this role. Compared to the Investment Promotion Agency in a poor County, Nan Shan District is nearer to the City Government. Its economic and infrastructure developments and political status are several times better than Yan Tai County. This is a huge leap for Dong Xuebing, and he will be the Sub-district’s Party Secretary. If he can achieve some outstanding results, he will be promoted to Deputy Division Chief.

This is a good place.

Dong Xuebing drank his tea and let his imaginations run wild.

After a few moments, Hu Silian suddenly giggled. “I still heard that it was Secretary Xiang who recommended you to Nan Shan District’s Party Secretary.”

Dong Xuebing was surprised. “Secretary Xiang?”

Hu Silian nodded with a weird expression. Not many people can get help from their political rivals.

Dong Xuebing is speechless. Xiang Daofa must be up to no good and tries to get him out of Yan Tai County. But since he knows Xiang Daofa had helped him, he must thank him.

Dong Xuebing left Hu Silian’s office and went to Xiang Daofa’s office. He was going through some documents when Dong Xuebing entered. He is smiling as he praised and encouraged Dong Xuebing, and he looks like he had forgotten what happened at the investment fair.

Dong Xuebing also thanked Xiang Daofa politely.

Xiang Daofa might seem gracious to recommend Dong Xuebing, but many people can tell he is scare of the latter. Other than the troubles he caused with the Public Security Deputy Chief, he had also caused lots of trouble when he was the Investment Promotion Agency Chief. Who knows what other troubles he will cause if he is going to remain in the county?

This guy is a trouble maker! He must be sent away as soon as possible!
