Only halfway through speaking, Lu Naiwen suddenly sighed, closed the book and stood up and said, "This one discovery is one discovery after another, I'll go to the opposite café and wait for you." ”

Xu Xinqi nodded at first, and then couldn't help but tease him: "You, you've been going to dinner diligently lately, and you can't calm down when you read!"

Li Fengzhu also got up to say goodbye to Lu Naiwen.

After he left, Xu Xinqi explained to Li Fengzhu: "People who study economics are most tired of the interference of the powerful side in them, so they hate those who are linked to politics. Let's ignore him, tell me which lawyer it is?"

Li Fengzhu smiled, only said that it was understandable, and then briefly talked about the chance encounter with Ji Qingyi.

Lu Naiwen's performance made her more and more sure that the Japanese suspicion and suspicion have reached the peak, and even such a person will doubt it.

Xu Xinqi smiled, and then brought the topic back to work: "According to my friends in the lawyer's circle, Ma Zhanshan has invited almost all the lawyers in Tianjin Wei. However, his case is too complicated, and he has to find someone to take over, and ability and reward are indispensable. ”

Li Fengzhu is a very clever person, and he is especially good at finding hidden answers from the front of the conversation, so he sneered: "The huge Tianjin Wei, how can there be a shortage of capable people, it should be because the return is not close." ”

Xu Xinqi was secretly satisfied, and said: "So, I think it is very likely that Ji Qingyi will take over this case." Who is Ji Qingyi, a staunch anti-Japanese democrat, it is a matter of Ma Zhanshan, even if she doesn't take a penny, she is willing. ”

The two chatted right, and Li Fengzhu's thinking became clearer: "If this matter can be confirmed, I plan to start with her mainly in the future work." The reason is twofold, first of all, as a woman, I am personally willing to be close to and promote progressive women, and reports involving equal rights between men and women always have their own sales. Secondly, I have observed Ma Zhai, and with their current caution, there is very little hope of interviewing Ma Zhanshan himself and his cronies, and even if it can be done, it will be half the effort. ”

Xu Xinqi just opened his mouth, but was interrupted by a knock on the door.

"It's been a busy day. He couldn't help but smile bitterly at Li Fengzhu, and then said to the door, "Please come in." ”

Here came a man in a suit, combed and straight, bright enough to show a human figure. A handsome white face with stubble shaved clean. When he laughs, there are a few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and his eyes glow like stars, looking very much like the hero in the Mandarin Duck and Butterfly novel.

In Li Fengzhu's opinion, such a man is okay from a distance, but if you look closely, you have to think about it, when people are middle-aged or busy with their livelihood or focused on their careers, they are always a little undignified, unless they are cynical playboys. However, such a seemingly perfect gentleman is probably what a young girl who does not know the difficulties of the world would like to meet the most.

I saw Xu Xinqi hurriedly stand up and stretched out his hand to warmly welcome: "Yo, Editor-in-Chief Tang is here." Turning his head, he said to Li Fengzhu again, "This is the newly appointed editor-in-chief of "Tianjin Daily News", Mr. Tang Shubai Tang. ”

"Vice-vice-vice-......" Tang Shubai accepted his joy and corrected in a low voice.

Here, Li Fengzhu's reaction was a little cold. "Tianjin Daily News" She knows that her position is not as simple as being pro-Japanese, and the person who can get the title of deputy editor-in-chief in this kind of newspaper is really difficult for her to see, no matter how decent she is.

Xu Xinqi was still enthusiastically introducing the two: "This is the big reporter just invited by our newspaper, Ms. Li Fengzhu." ”

After hearing this, Tang Shubai couldn't help but exclaim: "I really have admired the name for a long time, like thunder." Seeing you, the contemptible people finally thoroughly understood an idiom - both talent and appearance. ”

Li Fengzhu couldn't help but smile faintly, then put away the business card box and put it in his handbag, and then said goodbye: "Director, then I'm busy." ”

Xu Xinqi only didn't keep her much when she had just changed to a new environment and was full of energy.

Tang Shubai looked at her a few more times.

To be honest, this is not the kind of elegant and delicate woman in the traditional aesthetics, but I am used to seeing brocade clothes and jeweled vases, and occasionally encounter plain faces, but I also feel beautiful. It wasn't until the door was touched that Tang Shubai remembered and asked, "How much did you pay to dig it, and Johnson's old fox is willing to let him go?"

Xu Xinqi couldn't help but be proud of this, squinting his eyes and selling a pass: "To be honest, I didn't have much salary increase." ”

"Why is it so difficult to ask the truth from your mouth!" Tang Shubai felt that he was not interested, so he took a cigarette and lit it.

"Just wait and see tomorrow's headlines to see if my words are true. Xu Xinqi also took one and put it in his mouth and said.

"With me, you still have a hand. Tang Shubai smiled and spit out a round smoke ring, "I'm coming today......

Halfway through the words, there was a sudden silence, and the atmosphere became a little weird.

Xu Xinqi smiled as usual, and saw him take out a piece of jade with a whole body of turquoise and play with it. In order to resolve the embarrassment, Xu Xinqi said "rudeness" three times in a row, and got up to make tea. Others are walking, and their hearts are not idle, although Tang Shubai is affectionate, but in fact, the relationship between the two is only general, and there is not even the impression of being alone in his memory.

The smile on Tang Shubai's face was held for a long time, and it seemed a little insincere. The hand holding the handle turned faster and faster, and it was dizzying to watch.

A cup of hot tea was delivered to his hand, Tang Shubai took it and took a sip before he opened his mouth to praise it as a good tea. Immediately afterwards, he took out a long small box from his bag, presented it to Xu Xinqi with both hands, and said, "Director Xu, congratulations!"

"What are you happy about?" Xu Xinqi took it suspiciously. When you look at it, it is a folding fan, with the misty mountains as the distant view, the peach blossom mountain stone in the near distance, and a crane flying vividly on the left. When I saw it, I couldn't help but admire, "Such a good thing is very difficult to find now, presumably Editor-in-Chief Tang has put a lot of effort into it, right?"

"Your company is in full swing, and this 'congratulations' is the same sooner or later. Tang Shubai continued to turn the thing in his hand and smiled before continuing, "This fan inherits Zhou Chen's painting method. Nowadays, the vassals and elegant people do not depart from the words of literature, calligraphy and painting, historical traditions, and Tang Yin closes his mouth to hate Ying, but he may not know that these two of the four families of Wumen are the disciples of Zhou Chen. In fact, the highest level of collecting calligraphy and painting is to have a relationship with the ancients, and to be able to comprehend everyone's inner cultivation is the real possession. I like the spaciousness and beauty of Zhou Chen's pen, which makes people yearn for the life of paradise as soon as they see it. It's a pity that people's hearts and the world have changed, and the spirit left by our ancestors has long been lost by ourselves. Visiting famous artists in North China, they are all perfunctory and vulgar, and I can't find a few people who have heaven and earth in their hearts. ”

Xu Xinqi asked curiously: "So in the end, how did you find it?"

Tang Shubai first regretted it, but when he said it, he smiled with satisfaction: "It's a long story here, but the older generation still has the backbone." However, no matter how far the dying people have the spirit, how far can they carry the banner of culture? I sincerely begged for a painting that touched the hearts of the old people, and wept bitterly at me, lamenting that a great country could not find a worthy successor. In fact, there are blue-eyed foreigners around me who want to learn painting, but unfortunately, the old man talks about a 'family heirloom', and he still wants to accept a Chinese as an apprentice. Therefore, my consistent attitude is that we should not bring up the reasons for the oppression of foreign powers in all matters and small things, first of all, we ourselves are disgusted with our own civilization, and we especially like to fight in the nest, so that outsiders look down on us extraordinarily. It really makes me sad today!"

"Who said it wasn'......" Xu Xinqi flipped through the fan and looked at it, then carefully put it away, "However, this fan is so hard-won." The more you say, the more I dare not accept it. ”

As soon as he let this side go, Tang Shubai pushed back preparedly and said, "Director Xu is the most suitable to take it." If a person like me says to someone who yearns for idle clouds and wild cranes, I'm afraid everyone will laugh. Only a literati like you is worthy of playing this fan. I'm probably not able to do it out of the world. It's half of it—out of the ordinary, it's probably enough for me to study for the rest of my life. ”

Xu Xinqi suddenly realized at this time, he came in a hurry, and he made three turns and nine turns to lead out the words of "fighting in the nest and getting rid of idle things", which meant that the teacher was asking for guilt.

It's a long story. The lack of Tang Shubai, the deputy editor-in-chief, seems to be a normal replacement of the old and the new on the surface, but there are some rumors in private, which directly pointed to the car accident in which the old deputy editor-in-chief retired five years early, which was instructed by Tang Shubai. Because of his proximity to the Japanese, there are many people who believe this rumor. But there is no real evidence in this matter, and it will be over if you don't pay attention to it. Who knew that there was a proofreader surnamed Yuan in their newspaper who made a drunken gaffe and confirmed the matter to his colleagues present. In this way, there is no reason to cut off this statement, but it has spread all over the press in half a day. After Yuan woke up, he knew that it would be bad to offend Tang Shubai, so he decided to go out and hide. It's a pity that Tianjin City doesn't have words that Tang Shubai can't listen to for the first time.

If an ordinary person like Xu Xinqi wants to solve it, it is nothing more than a lesson for Yuan, and then he can say that he took revenge on his boss because he was unwilling. Only because of this soft-heartedness, Xu Xinqi is far less than Tang Shubai to climb high. The next day, Yuan had one more big crime of embezzling huge sums of money, and what was worse was that this "public case" was not filed in the newspaper, but in the name of the Japanese consulate. If the evidence of the crime is conclusive, the disaster of prison is probably not avoidable. However, most people can also see that this accusation is destined to have no trial, and once the person is caught, the end will be one more unsolved case in Tianjin.

"Don't believe in rumors!" Xu Xinqi stood up in a cold sweat and explained, "Who would dare to take in the kind of person who embezzles public funds!"
