Summer heat is like fire, these days by the influence of subtropical high pressure, the county temperature soared to thirty-eight degrees Celsius. When Office Director Wang and Personnel Section Chief Ma went to report on their work, Director He was sitting comfortably in his leather boss chair sipping fragrant tea, his eyes fixed on the evening newspaper of the day.

Director, He listened to the report absentmindedly, and finally moved his gaze from the spread newspaper on the desktop and said casually: "Look, this old cadre retreat mentioned in the newspaper is quite good! The mountains and clear water, the distance is not too far, the most crucial thing is that it has a very good small reservoir next to it."

Secretary, He said here, deliberately paused. Director Wang listened very puzzledly: the Secretary for no reason to mention this matter why? Or Chief Ma came quickly: "The Secretary does not mean that you want to relax and go swimming there?" The director nodded and smiled, with a non-committal tone said: "I am feeling, you do not blindly think."

Secretary, He said here and paused, sipped a mouthful of tea, continued: "I saw this ad in the newspaper, it reminds me of my childhood in the hometown of cattle, the weather is hot, and small friends to find a pond to tie the jerk, that is called pain miles! Now the city swimming pool is not sanitary, I think people, it is better to return to nature."

Hearing this, Director Wang was enlightened: "Secretary, it is rare that you have the pleasure, we go down to work together. Director Wang immediately to several deputy directors of the air, we think we should hold a special meeting. Then several deputy directors and a few middle-level cadres gathered together to conduct an in-depth and detailed study of the swimming problem. The people spoke freely, on how to improve the Secretary He swimming this activity put forward their views and opinions. Everyone's consensus is to let Secretary He go with pleasure, satisfaction, and return, but also to ensure that the safety aspects of no problem, swimming trunks, sun hat, sunshade, life preservers, and other specific details of the arrangements.

The union's old Wu said: "The boss said he played in the water as a child, swimming skills are very good, but that is the past, no one can confirm. Now he sits for long time organs, lack of exercise, bloated body, I think we should choose a few experts within the escort, that is, to do 'accompany the swimmer'." So said, everyone's thinking is open. Security Section Chief Jiang said, "If you have more insurance, you should bring 'bureau doctor'. In case of an accident, no professionals will not know how to rescue." Then, the administrative section chief Jiang proposed that enough cooling products should be prepared, but also to accompany the comrades to send appropriate subsidies.

Finally, the deputy director in charge of discipline inspection Liu finalized, saying that Secretary He swam once, with much fanfare and fanfare, and the cadres and staff will certainly have ideas. Now it is at the critical juncture of anti-corruption and integrity, in case someone will report the matter up ...... simply the whole Bureau that day off, each additional 100 yuan cooling fee to appease people.

After the meeting formed a resolution, Director Wang put the written report for Secretary He to sign. Secretary, He looked at it, frowning, a sulking face: "poorly considered, travel without a name. You and Old Ma inquire again to see if any projects around that sanatorium can be examined or help the poor." Director Wang froze, not expecting the plan to be rejected.

Director Wang thought for a second, Director He's opinion is not unreasonable, how did not consider it thoroughly? It seems that the only way to personally first run to the sanatorium. Director Wang drove non-stop to the sanatorium for some fieldwork and traveled in the spirit of the famous instructions to find the best poverty alleviation project - to support farming.

Director He can finally crown to go swimming, playing the signboard is to carry out counterpart poverty alleviation. When Secretary He and his party came to the sanatorium full of confidence to prepare for a fight in the water but saw that the reservoir is almost dried up to the bottom, and simply can not swim in the water. Director Wang was dumbfounded: a few days ago it was a full reservoir of water, and within a few days it was close to drying up. What the hell is going on here? Director Wang stood there dumbfounded, Director He full of suspicion staring at him, staring at his heart straight trembling ...... Director Wang saw an old farmer nearby, busy up to ask the truth. It turns out that, because of the long-term drought, the reservoir water for drought!
