Without further ado, Li Rui decided to act immediately. Of course, before reporting to Ji Faling, he must first communicate with Su Zhiqiang to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. After all, reporting beyond the level is a taboo in the officialdom.

Su Zhiqiang was indeed very interested after listening to Li Rui's report. He first proposed the vigorous development of coal chemical industrialization. Although he also discussed it at the county party committee standing committee and published a document in the name of the county party committee, Yang Liqing was still not active in this matter, so that a project had not been reached yet, which was almost a joke. The reason why Su Zhiqiang strongly recommended Li Rui as the director of the coal management bureau was, on the one hand, because of Guo Wending's instructions, and on the other hand, he also wanted to arrange his own people in an important position like the coal management bureau to better implement the process of coal chemical industrialization. He originally wanted to talk to Li Rui about this matter, but he did not expect Li Rui to come to report on it.

Li Rui saw the opportunity and proposed to report to the county party secretary Ji Faling. Su Zhiqiang pondered for a moment and said, "This matter should be reported to Secretary Ji. He has always cared about you. By the way, you and Secretary Ji..."

From the handling of Changshan Coal Mine accident to the nomination of the director of the Coal Management Bureau, Ji Faling supported Li Rui twice, which also made Su Zhiqiang curious. He was not a person in Ji Faling's circle and was always at a disadvantage in the political struggle with Yang Liqing. If he could obtain Ji Faling's support, the situation would be greatly improved.

Li Rui quickly replied: "Secretary Ji and one of my friends' fathers are family friends. I know that I came to Nanqiao to say hello to Secretary Ji. Speaking of which, I have not reported to Secretary Ji's work or expressed my gratitude to him. I am so ashamed!"

"Oh, my friend, why have you never heard of it?"

"Actually, I don't know. I didn't have any punishment for the last accident. Later, I asked my friend and found out that she had greeted Secretary Ji's house before." Li Rui said with a smile.

Li Rui's answer was vague, and Su Zhiqiang didn't ask any more questions, saying, "Okay! Then you must be fully prepared, report to Secretary Ji, and seek support from the county party committee, so that you can get half the result with twice the effort."

"Okay, I know, County Mayor Su."

After coming out of the county government building, Li Rui looked at the small county party building behind and called the office of the county party secretary Ji Faling.

"Hey, hello, who?" A low voice rang out.

Li Rui knew that this was Ji Faling's secretary Wang Yougen. Wang Yougen has been following Ji Faling for many years. He also serves as the deputy director of the county party committee office and is also a number one figure in Nanqiao County. Li Rui quickly said politely: "Director Wang, I am Li Rui from the Coal Management Bureau. Don't you know that Secretary Ji is free? I want to report to him about the recent work of the Coal Management Bureau."

"Oh, it turns out it's Director Li! Hello, hello!" Wang Yougen's voice suddenly became very enthusiastic. "Secretary Ji has no arrangements today, but he is talking to Minister Yu about work now, and it may take a while before he can get free."

"Okay, I'll come over now and just come to chat with you Director Wang." Li Rui said with a smile.

"Okay! Then I'll make some tea and wait for you."

Because he knew that Gao Jie had greeted Ji Faling, despite his first contact with Wang Yougen, the enthusiasm he showed was expected.

When he arrived at Ji Faling's office, Wang Yougen had already brewed tea and waited with a smile. Li Rui had already made preparations before coming. After some greetings, he took out an envelope from his bag, which contained a thousand gift vouchers from Nanqiao Department Store and handed them on it.

"Oh, Director Li, everyone is brother, why should you be so polite!" Although he said that, Wang Yougen still naturally took the envelope and put it in the drawer, looking like he was eating and making it. These are all rules on the scene. Although everyone knows it, the first time in formal dealings, the meeting gifts are indispensable. Besides, it is all the money from the public, so why bother to pretend? People in positions like Wang Yougen are already very proud of their face if they can collect them.

Wang Yougen was a Chinese teacher at Nanqiao Middle School before. He was quite talkative. Li Rui also chatted with him with great enthusiasm. Although it was common, he could still hear that this person's level was quite good. No wonder Ji Faling valued him so much. During this period, Wang Yougen went in and added water once, and after he came out, he smiled at Li Rui and said, "I have reported to the boss."

"Director Wang."

"If there is nowhere, everyone is their own people. Everyone will gather together when they have time in the future." Wang Yougen smiled.

He saw Ji Faling's attitude towards Li Rui before. When he just went in to add water, he whispered to Ji Faling and reported to Ji Faling that Li Rui was waiting outside. As a result, Ji Faling immediately smiled and said, "It turns out it's this kid, why did he come?" In just one sentence, it fully demonstrated that Ji Faling valued Li Rui and had been waiting for him to come to the door. So while Wang Yougen was enthusiastic about Li Rui, he also added a bit of the intention of making friends with sincerity.

"Okay! I'll make arrangements. As long as you, Director Wang, have time, I'll be there any time you call." Li Rui said immediately.

Because he knew that Li Rui and others were outside, the conversation between Ji Faling and Yu Shungen also turned to the personnel arrangements of the Coal Management Bureau. Yu Shungen heard what Ji Faling said just now. Although he didn't know what the relationship between Ji Faling and Li Rui was, he knew very well that Ji Faling still valued Li Rui very much.

"Secretary Ji, will the candidate for the Director of the Coal Management Bureau be discussed at the next Standing Committee? According to the feedback below, after Du Jinsong's double-regulation, the Coal Management Bureau has basically achieved a smooth transition, and no major turmoil has occurred. The safety rectification work of each coal mine below is also progressing steadily, without affecting the coal output. It should be said that although Comrade Li Rui is young, he is still quite capable. I think he can be placed in the position of Director of the Coal Management Bureau."

Speaking of this, Ji Faling grabbed Weiba's forehead and frowned. He originally wanted to push Li Rui up, but Yang Qingshan's opposition was also expected. He knew that Yang Qingshan, as the county magistrate, did not want to give in to the coal management bureau like this. On the one hand, Li Rui was nominated by Su Zhiqiang, and on the other hand, he had heard of the personal grudges between Yang Qingshan and Li Rui. He knew very well that his partner was not very generous. But Xu Hao's opposition made him unpredictable and he was also a little confused. Logically, Li Rui had no interaction with him, and he did not believe that Xu Hao would have any sex with Yang Qingshan.

When Yu Shungen saw Ji Faling silent, he knew that he was still scrupulous of Xu Hao's opinion, he hurriedly said: "I have also learned about Secretary Xu. There is basically no contact between him and Li Rui. Maybe there will be any misunderstandings in the middle? Why don't I communicate with him?"

Ji Faling pondered for a moment and shook his head and said, "I'd better put this matter first. Since Li Rui is doing well now, let him preside over the work for a while and make some achievements. As for Lao Xu, I'll ask him to communicate with him if I have time."

Hearing Ji Faling say this, Yu Shungen knew very well. Ji Faling had already seen Li Rui. It was impossible for others to fall behind in the position of the director of the Coal Management Bureau. He nodded and smiled, "I know, Secretary Ji. If you don't have any other instructions, I will say goodbye first. There are still people waiting outside."

"It's okay, you go." Ji Faling sat in his seat without moving. Yu Shungen was his most trusted old subordinate, and he promoted it again, and all unnecessary politeness was spared.

Yu Shungen went out happily. Seeing him coming out, two people outside who were smoking and bragging quickly extinguished the cigarette and stood up and said respectfully: "Minister Yu."

Yu Shungen nodded at Wang Yougen, then walked to Li Rui, patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "Young man is doing a good job, Secretary Ji is waiting inside, you can go in."

Of course, Li Rui would not go in immediately. He and Yu Shungen are old acquaintances. While smiling and thanking each other, they sent Minister Yu out of the door with Wang Yougen, and then gently knocked on the door in the inner room.

"Come in." The sound is not loud and the air is full.

Li Rui walked into the door, Ji Faling was writing at the desk, raised her eyes and glanced at Li Rui: "Well, Xiao Li is here, let's sit down."

"Oh!" Li Rui responded and sat down on the chair in a proper manner.

Ji Faling continued to write, Li Rui was waiting quietly, but his stomach was secretly complaining: Why do leaders like this? Is this a test or a false pretentious thing? But he didn't show it at all.

Ji Faling worked for five or six minutes before he stopped writing, leaned back, looked at Li Rui who was sitting opposite him, and showed a smile on his face. He was obviously satisfied with his performance just now, "Tell me, what's the matter with me?"

Li Rui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and his originally calm expression became a little hesitant and said, "Secretary Ji, today we are mainly to express your concern and trust to me. If it weren't for you last time, I would definitely not be able to escape a punishment..."

Ji Faling waved his hand and said, "This is not what I mean by myself, but the conclusion made by the investigation team. Although you are the deputy director in charge of safety production, on the one hand, you have not been here for a long time. More importantly, your actions of saving people without regard for life and safety fully demonstrate the responsibilities of being a party member and cadre, which can be considered as a meritorious person! But you should also learn from this. In any job, even if you only stay for one day, you must be loyal and not slack."

Ji Faling started to speak out, and Li Rui quickly sat upright, listened carefully, and said sincerely: "I must keep in mind your teachings, work hard, and live up to your expectations of Secretary Ji."

When Ji Faling saw Li Rui's honest look, he smiled and said, "Okay, I believe you too. Minister Yu also told me just now that you have performed well in the work of the Coal Management Bureau. Do you want to become a regular employee today?"

"No, no, no, the organization asked me to preside over the work because of my trust. As for whether I can become a regular worker, it is a question that Secretary Ji and the organization consider. Even if I want to become a regular worker, I will never dare to come to run for office. In addition to thanking me today, I also want to report to you about the recent work and future plans of our Coal Management Bureau." Li Rui said quickly. Ji Faling obviously had a joke, and Li Rui's words also meant to be interested.
