From the rural love, many children and good fortune

The next day, Xie Guangkun got up early, caught two fat chickens, tied them up with ropes, and threw them on the donkey cart.

He drove his donkey cart and went out to the town government.

Along the way, Xie Guangkun was thinking about what to say when he saw Qi Santai.

When they arrived at the town government, the security guard Lao Yan stopped Xie Guangkun.

"What do you do?" Old Yan looked up and down at Xie Guangkun and his donkey cart.

Without even raising his eyelids, Xie Guangkun said, "I want to see Mayor Qi. I have something to ask."

Old Yan frowned: "Looking for Mayor Qi? Do you have an appointment?"

Xie Guangkun was stunned: "Do I need to make an appointment? I've been to the town government so many times, but I've never made an appointment."

Old Yan shook his head and said seriously, "There are new regulations now. You can't enter without an appointment."

Xie Guangkun shouted anxiously: "Do you know who I am? How dare you stop me?"

Old Yan was unmoved: "Who cares who you are? This is the rule, and no one can make an exception."

Xie Guangkun raised his voice: "What are the rules? Mayor Qi and I are relatives. Don't stand in my way."

Old Yan also got angry: "Even relatives are not allowed to enter without an appointment."

Xie Guangkun said angrily: "You old man, why are you so stubborn!"

Old Yan's face darkened: "Watch your words. If you continue to make trouble, I will have someone chase you away."

Xie Guangkun's eyes widened: "How dare you! I must go in today."

Just when the two were in a stalemate, a staff member walked out of the town government.

He saw two people arguing at the door and walked over to ask what was going on.

Old Yan quickly said, "This guy insisted on barging in so early in the morning without an appointment."

Xie Guangkun hurriedly explained: "Comrade, I have something urgent to discuss with Mayor Qi. I am his cousin's husband."

The staff frowned and said, "Even if you are a relative, you have to follow the rules. Go back and make an appointment first, and then come back."

Xie Guangkun said helplessly: "I'm already here, can't you be flexible?"

The staff member was firm: "No, this is a matter of principle. You can't solve the problem by arguing like this."

Seeing that there was really no other way, Xie Guangkun had to drive the donkey cart back angrily.

Along the way, Xie Guangkun kept muttering, "A small gatekeeper is so arrogant. When I see the Third Wife, I'll let her deal with him."

When he got home, Yongqiang's mother saw that he had returned empty-handed and asked, "How was it? Did you see the Third Wife?"

When Xie Guangkun told Yongqiang's mother what happened, she complained, "I told you that this wouldn't work, but you wouldn't listen."

Xie Guangkun sat down on the chair, sulking: "What should I do? Yongqiang's work cannot be delayed."

At this moment, Xie Yongqiang walked out of the room and said, "Dad, please stop messing around. Giving gifts is a perverted trend."

Xie Guangkun glared at him: "What a perverse trend! How can I arrange a job for you if you don't give me a gift?"

Xie Yongqiang frowned and said seriously, "Dad, nowadays we all talk about fairness and justice. It won't work to rely on crooked ways like giving gifts."

Xie Guangkun stood up suddenly and raised his voice: "What do you know? How can you survive in this society without some social skills? If you don't give gifts, why would they give you the job?"

Xie Yongqiang argued: "Dad, I have the education and ability, I can compete through the normal recruitment process."

Xie Guangkun had a look of disappointment on his face: "Normal recruitment? Do you think it's that easy? Look at those people in the village who went out to work, how many of them found good jobs through normal recruitment? They all relied on connections and gifts!"

Yongqiang's mother advised, "Yongqiang, your father is doing this for your own good. He is afraid that you will suffer."

Xie Guangkun continued, "Son, I've lived in this village for most of my life. I've seen everything. You can listen to me."

Xie Yongqiang was silent. He thought that when he graduated from college, he also wanted to stay in the city, find a good job, and live the life of a city dweller.

I encountered many setbacks when looking for a job. Most of the resumes I sent out were ignored. The occasional interview opportunities I had, none of them resulted in any results due to fierce competition.

Just when he was in a state of panic, his father Xie Guangkun called and said he had found a job for him.

He took advantage of the situation and returned to the village. He did not tell anyone about this secret, not even his parents knew.

Xie Yongqiang's heart began to waver. Maybe what his father said made sense?

Seeing that his son didn't say anything, Xie Guangkun thought he had heard it.

He continued, "Son, as long as I can help you find a job, what does it matter if I spend some money on gifts? When you work at the county education committee and become a cadre, this won't be a big deal."

Xie Yongqiang raised his head and looked into his father's eager eyes.

His heart softened, and he said, "Dad, then... then okay, but can this be accomplished?"

Xie Guangkun slapped his thigh and said, "It can be done! It will definitely work! As long as we send a few more chickens to your uncle, Qi Santai will not give us face."

A few days later, Xie Guangkun and Xie Yongqiang, each carrying two chickens, went to the town government again.

When they arrived at the gate of the town government, Old Yan saw them and still stopped them from entering.

For the sake of his son's future, Xie Guangkun stopped acting tough this time.

He said with a smile: "Old Yan, please be kind this time and let us in."

Old Yan still had that serious expression on his face: "No, you can't come in without an appointment, that's the rule."

Xie Guangkun hurriedly stuffed a pack of cigarettes in his hand to Old Yan: "Brother Yan, please be flexible."

Old Yan pushed the cigarette back, his expression becoming even uglier: "What are you doing? Take it away quickly, or I'll call someone."

When Xie Yongqiang saw Xie Guangkun acting so humble in front of Old Yan, he felt sad.

Just then, Qi Santai's secretary Xiao Li happened to pass by.

Xie Guangkun quickly grabbed Xiao Li and stuffed a pack of Huazi into his hand: "Xiao Li, please tell the third wife that I, Xie Guangkun, have something to ask him."

Xiao Li looked at the things in their hands and frowned: "Uncle Xie, what are you doing? Mayor Qi hates this the most, you should take it back."

Xie Guangkun refused to let go: "Xiao Li, please help me. This is related to my son's future."

Xiao Li said helplessly: "Then I'll go ask the mayor, but I can't guarantee it will work."

After a while, Xiao Li came out and said to Qi Guangkun: "The mayor said that you can go in."

Xie Guangkun and Xie Yongqiang were delighted and quickly followed Xiao Li into Qi Santai's office.

When Qi Santai saw Xie Guangkun and Xie Yongqiang, he said with a smile on his face: "Guangkun, Yongqiang, you are here."

As he spoke, he glanced at the chicken in their hands, and without refusing, he motioned for them to put it aside.

"Third Madam, you have to pay more attention to Yongqiang's work." Xie Guangkun said hurriedly.

Qi Santai nodded, looked at Xie Yongqiang and asked, "Yongqiang, have you been waiting at home lately and are you getting anxious?"

Xie Yongqiang replied somewhat stiffly: "Uncle, I am a little anxious."

Qi Santai smiled and said, "Don't worry, it will be done soon. The Education Commission is coordinating with them, and it won't be long before there are results."

When Xie Guangkun heard this, a smile immediately spread across his face: "That's good, that's good, thank you so much, Third Madam."

Mrs. Qi waved her hand and said, "We are all relatives, it's only natural. But Yongqiang, you must work hard in the future and don't bring shame to your uncle."

Xie Yongqiang nodded quickly: "Uncle, don't worry, I will work hard."

Xie Guangkun took the opportunity to say, "Third Madam, you see, Yongqiang will need more advice from you when he starts working."

Qi Santai replied: "Okay, as long as Yongqiang is willing to work hard, any problem can be solved."

After chatting for a few more words, Xie Guangkun and Xie Yongqiang said goodbye and left.

After leaving the town government, Xie Guangkun was in a good mood: "Son, look, this thing is almost done."

Xie Yongqiang felt a little unhappy, thinking that this hope could only be obtained by giving gifts, he felt that life was so helpless.
