The next morning, Lu Weimin finished washing up and came to the office.
The County Party Committee Office is on the third floor. As part of the County Party Committee, it also serves as the main body for conveying the decisions of the County Party Committee. The work of the County Party Committee Office is quite complex, with a total of thirteen staff members. Apart from Xu Xiaochun, the Secretary of the County Party Committee, the Secretary of the County Directly-Subordinate Organs Party Committee, and the Director of the County Party Committee Office, there are four deputy directors.
One is Tang Tiquan, Deputy Director of the County Party Committee Office and Director of the County Old Cadres Bureau, who mainly assists Xu Xiaochun in the daily work of the County Party Committee Office, focusing on party building, organizational personnel, cultural propaganda, and secretarial work, while also handling the work of the county government, the People's Congress, and the CPPCC.
Another is Xu Chongzhi, Deputy Director of the County Party Committee Office, Director of the County Confidentiality Office, and Director of the County Cryptography Bureau. Xu Chongzhi also serves as the Director of the County Petitions Office and the Discipline Inspection Group Leader of the County Party Committee Office, mainly handling social and livelihood affairs, discipline inspection, and political and legal affairs in the county.
There is also Luo Changhe, Deputy Director of the County Party Committee Office and Director of the County Reception Office, who, in addition to handling the county's reception work, also deals with planning, finance, industry, and transportation.
The remaining deputy director is Zhou Yuming, who also serves as the Director of the County Agricultural Office and the Director of the County Party Committee Policy Research Office, mainly handling financial, agricultural, and commercial affairs.
The day before, Lu Weimin only met Xu Xiaochun and Zhou Yuming and had not yet met the other three deputy directors. However, he had already met the other staff members of the County Party Committee Office.
When he arrived, only one of the several offices in the County Party Committee Office was open, and the directors had not yet arrived.
"Hey, Xiao Lu, you're here so early?"
"Sister Cui, I live right behind here, so I got up early with nothing to do." Lu Weimin saw the woman with her sleeves rolled up busy cleaning the office and quickly grabbed a broom to help.
"Hey, no need, we each clean our own office. In our Confidentiality Office and Cryptography Office, besides Director Xu, there are only me and Old Tian. Old Tian is not in good health, so I have to do this work. Xiao Lu, you're in the Comprehensive Division next door, don't you have the office key yet?"
Sister Cui has some seniority in the County Party Committee Office, but there isn't much work in the Confidentiality Office and Cryptography Office. The other office staff member, Old Tian, is a long-term patient and rarely comes to work, only showing up when there's something good in the office.
The day before, Lu Weimin had greeted all the colleagues in these offices. He knew that to survive in the government, one must be sweet-talking, diligent, and smart. Being sweet-talking is also a basic skill, especially when dealing with women who have been in the government for a long time. If you offend them, you might not even know when you've been criticized behind your back.
"Sure, no problem, Sister Cui, I have nothing to do anyway." Lu Weimin started sweeping the floor while casually asking, "Sister Cui, which director is in charge of the Comprehensive Division?"
"It's Director Tang. All the written materials in our County Party Committee Office mainly go through his hands. But Xiao Lu, you seem to be following Secretary Shen, right? Technically, you should belong to the County Government Office, as Secretary Shen is the Deputy County Magistrate and shouldn't be part of our County Party Committee Office." Sister Cui clearly had good sources of information. "But now it's not easy to choose a secretary for Secretary Shen. We can't find a suitable candidate in our office or the County Government Office, so they chose you, right?"
Lu Weimin sensed a hint of regret in her words, but he wasn't sure. However, he soon understood the implications.
Shen Zilie was on a temporary assignment in Nantang, and more than half of his time was already over. He wouldn't be staying in the county for much longer, at most another six months.
In these six months, you would just be getting familiar with the leadership, and then you would have to change bosses. Building a good relationship with a new boss is not easy, especially after serving as a secretary for another leader. The new boss might not appreciate you, and you would need courage and wisdom to find your place again, along with some luck.
After 8:30, people started arriving at the office one by one. The offices of the Comprehensive Division were also gradually opened. The Comprehensive Division has three offices, with four people, including himself, serving the daily work and life of the County Party Secretary and Deputy Secretaries, mainly focusing on work.
The head of the Comprehensive Division, Wei Peng, is a native of Nantang. After graduating from Liyang Teachers College, he worked at Nantang Middle School for many years, then transferred to the County Party Committee Office and eventually became the head of the Comprehensive Division.
"Xiao Lu, Director Xu and Director Zhou have both told me that from today, you are part of our County Party Committee Office. They have probably given you a general idea of the work. You will mainly follow Secretary Shen. Our division is small, but every task is important. When Secretary Shen has no other work, everyone in the division must pitch in."
Wei Peng is a very gentle and scholarly person with excellent writing skills. He had some reservations about Lu Weimin being assigned to the Comprehensive Division as Secretary Shen's secretary, as he believed that the secretary of the Deputy County Magistrate should not be from the County Party Committee Office. However, he didn't dare to contradict Xu Xiaochun and could only complain to Zhou Xingbang. Despite this, he was impressed by Lu Weimin's polite and diligent demeanor, which somewhat alleviated his dissatisfaction.
"Head Wei, I understand. Please assign me any work. I'm young and can handle more tasks. I'm new here, so I don't know much, so I hope you can help and guide me."
Wei Peng was satisfied with Lu Weimin's respectful attitude. This young man seemed to know his place, unlike some who, with a bit of influence, would act without restraint. In the current situation, to enter the County Party Committee Office without working in the townships, one must have some background. Wei Peng knew this without needing to think. However, once in the County Party Committee Office, one must follow its rules. Xu Xiaochun had specifically instructed him to treat everyone equally and strictly, and Wei Peng understood the implications.
Wei Peng still retained some of his school-style habits, using specific terms like "cohesion" and "tempering" in his speech. Lu Weimin found this interesting, as it showed that Wei Peng had not completely transformed into a bureaucrat. However, if he couldn't fully transform into a bureaucrat in this government, he might remain in the position of head of the Comprehensive Division indefinitely.
