CHAPTER XLIV
The VIP hall of Xianyuan International Hotel is already full of guests, and the delegation of Fulong Group led by Wu Dong has a total of more than a dozen men and women, sitting in the two wings of the round table, Wu Dong, Secretary Pan, and Deputy County Mayor Liu sit side by side on the upper seat, and there are two empty seats in the lower seat. As soon as Yi Approachable and Luo Xifeng appeared in the VIP room, Secretary Pan pointed to the vacant seat and motioned for the two to sit down.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Secretary Pan owed a debt and raised his glass: "Call everyone here today, just a task to drink." According to the customs of Tucheng, this first cup of wine should be called whistling, which means that the banquet is really started after drinking this cup of wine; the main and guest cups should be bottomed out, which means that there is a beginning and an end; and the speed of drinking should be fast, which means how fast you drink, how quickly you will rise to prosperity and become rich. β
These words were too tempting, and as soon as Secretary Pan's words fell, everyone drank all the wine in the cup.
Secretary Pan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed happily. After a while, Deputy County Magistrate Liu said more seductive words: "Feelings are deep and stuffy, and feelings are shallow; if you want Tucheng to take root, you can drink a cup at home; if you want to have a career, unless the wine field does not fall." These are all the customs of drinking and banquets formed in Tucheng. Wu Dong, since you want to invest in Tucheng, you must first accept these customs, otherwise it will be difficult for you to gain a foothold, let alone make money and silver!"
Wu Dong originally drank a lot of alcohol, but because of his scruples about the leader, he didn't dare to show it even if he drank well. Since Deputy County Magistrate Liu said it so clearly, if he doesn't release the amount, he will have to go home. He raised his wine glass briskly, and first explained to his subordinates, all of them listened, look at me, I will drink as much as you want, no one must retreat, or go back to his hometown now. Then, his expression changed sharply, and he said to Secretary Pan with a pleasant face, I respect you first, Secretary Pan, thank you very much for welcoming and receiving us with such a high level of treatment, and this glass of wine is my respect and gratitude to you.
Secretary Pan didn't say a word and drank the wine.
Wu Dong raised his glass and pointed at Deputy County Magistrate Liu, Deputy County Magistrate Liu shook his glass, and in the blink of an eye, the wine was gone. Wu Dong is more refreshing, in one breath, the bottom of the cup is facing the sky.
Wu Dong raised his glass again and pointed to Yi Approachable and Luo Xifeng. The three of them looked at each other, clinking glasses and cheering.
Next, the time to witness the miracle arrived. I saw them scrambling to toast one by one, cup after cup, not a single bear bag, soft egg, after drinking, no one can remember who they drank with, who they didn't drink, how much they drank, until the hall was full of wine, smoky miasma, cups and plates.
Even Yi Jinren and Luo Xifeng, who were almost never drunk on weekdays, were drunk and unconscious this time, and they were not sent back to Changlong Village by Secretary Pan's driver until midnight.
On the second day, the signing ceremony of Fulong Group's Changlong Ecological Culture and Agricultural Comprehensive Development Project was held at the newly completed Longxu Hot Spring Hotel. Secretary Pan once again led the leaders of the four sets of county teams and the top party and government leaders of all units and townships and village committees directly under the county to attend the signing ceremony. The scale of the ceremony, the high style, and the far-reaching influence of the ceremony are the largest in the history of Tucheng. At the same time, the ceremony also opened a new prelude to the development of Changlong Village.
The land was leased out, and the mother-in-law of Changlong Village was idle for a while, and began to go to the market in the town in groups of three and five, and to the streets of unfamiliar cities to catch the market. Some mothers-in-law simply leave their children with their grandparents or grandparents, and go to Shenzhen to find their own grandfathers with a pat on their buttocks. As soon as the mother-in-law left, the problem came, every day there were people from the grandfather's generation to the village committee to report the situation, either to say that the grandson did not go to school and skipped class, or that the granddaughter did not eat and asked for her mother, all of which were trivial family trivialities.
It is difficult for Qing officials to decide family affairs, and for several days in a row, the approachable people are entangled in those family trivialities of right and wrong, dealing with them again and again, the old contradictions are solved, and the new contradictions are coming again. The approachable person has reached the point where he is exhausted and has nothing to do, so he has to go to Luo Xifeng to see what good countermeasures she has.
In Luo Xifeng's office, the door was open, and Huang Cuicui, Xu Zhixian, Zheng Mengyi, Liu Yulian, and Leng Ziyue sat around flirting and scolding, which was very lively. Yi Jinren pushed the door open without knocking, and when he raised his foot and just stepped in, he saw that Luo Xifeng was not inside, so he closed his foot and wanted to quit, but it was too late, Leng Ziyue rushed up and grabbed one of his arms and pulled him inside, forced him in, and then pressed him into a chair, and then the mother-in-law attacked him.
Liu Yulian said: "Village chief, Mr. Luo is not here, so you can't accompany a few of us." β
The approachable person said: "I'm busy with work, how can I have time to be idle here with you." β
Xu Zhixian was unhappy, and said with a straight face: "Village Chief, what you said is not authentic, and your work is not easy for us when you are busy with work." It's called being busy and having fun, you know? β
The approachable man blinked: "What did you just say, when I don't know, hee-hee and talk about Cuicui, what kind of job is this." β
Xu Zhixian asked him rhetorically: "You are the head of a village, do you know what we are talking about Cuicui?"
Yi Approachable couldn't answer for a while, Xu Zhixian replied by herself: "It's Cuicui's marriage thing." β
Yi Approacher was surprised, and asked, "Marriage, who are you marrying?" Then he patted his head and blamed himself, "Look at me, forgetful, I have forgotten Cuicui and hard work." β
Liu Yulian poked his finger and said angrily: "It's because you forgot, so their affairs are yellow." β
The approachable person was confused, and asked again: "Whose business is yellow?"
Liu Yulian said: "Of course, it is Cuicui and the hard-working captain. β
Yi Ren shook his head and denied: "What are you kidding, Huang's business, it can't be Huang's business." β
Liu Yulian said: "If you don't believe it, you ask everyone, or don't you ask Cuicui directly." β
The approachable person glanced at everyone, and his eyes were fixed on Huang Cuicui. At this moment, Luo Xifeng pushed the door and came in, followed by Li Jiahan.
"Yo, the village chief is here! It's too coincidental, I'm just going to look for you!" Luo Xifeng looked busy, and said hurriedly as he went straight to his desk.
Li Jiahan put a large pile of manuscripts on his desk with a hug on his chest.
Luo Xifeng issued an eviction order: "You are all busy, I will discuss something with the village chief." β
The mother-in-law came out, and Huang Cuicui was the last to leave, and she was very hesitant when she left, and looked at the approachable person a few times, as if she had something to say.
The approachable looked at the back of the mother-in-law leaving: "What don't you let them attend?"
"We have discussed your affairs with me, and let them carry them out. Luo Xifeng said, while taking out a large pile of designed drawings and pushing them to the approachable person, "These are all the design drawings of Fulong Group in our Changlong Village eco-cultural and agricultural comprehensive development project, I took a look, it was built with great momentum, you see, if you have no opinion, you will notify Wu Dong to sound the gong and open the way." β
Yi Approaching flipped through the drawings: "It's all designed, what do you have any opinions, as long as it does not damage the ecological environment of Changlong Village and can promote the economic development of Changlong and improve the lives of the villagers, you can notify Wu Dong to start construction." β
"It's good for you to put the responsibility on my company, let us work with Wu Dong, I'm worried that the burden is too heavy to bear!"
"If you can't afford it, no one in our Changlong Village can afford it, do it boldly, the village committee will fully support and cooperate with your work." β
Luo Xifeng put away the drawings and looked at the approachable person steadily.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" the approachable glanced at her.
"You didn't look at me, how do you know that I look at you?" Luo Xifeng retracted his gaze, and then sighed, "Cuicui and Xin Xin have no fate, and they broke up." β
The approachable person also sighed: "There is no fate, if you divide it, you will divide it." But I heard that Cuicui is going to get married, who are you going to marry?"
"You really don't know?"
"You know I'm still asking you?"
"It's Yamaki. β
"How could it be? Yamaki himself said he wasn't worthy of her. Besides, hasn't Cuicui always been disgusted with him?"
"You haven't heard that women's emotional manifestations are all opposite, they love you and say they hate you, and they like you and they hate you to death. When Xiaoqiang was alive, Shan Mu liked to set Cuicui's almost, and often joked that Cuicui was the most beautiful mother-in-law in Changlong Village, and if she had the opportunity, she would definitely be her own mother-in-law. β
"This kid is quite clever in his words, and the joke has come true. Eh, did you say when you got married?"
"Come on, Yamaki let out a word, saying that he would marry Cuicui home with the highest level and the most solemn ceremony. β
"Is it necessary to be so high-profile? It's not a yellow flower girl, is he doing this to show his financial resources or show how much he loves Cuicui? Or to warn hard marrying a mother-in-law depends on strength? No, you must tell Yamaki to deal with this matter in a low-key manner, otherwise the villagers will suspect that Xiaoqiang's death was deliberately arranged by Yamaki. β
"I'm worried that I won't be able to figure it out for a while and do something bad for Yamaki. β
"Don't worry, although he was a gangster before, this person can bend and stretch, have measurements, and is a gentleman, and he will not ruin himself because of a mother-in-law who is unwilling to marry him. I'll find an opportunity to talk to him, if you would like to come to Changlong Village to intervene in the door, if you are willingγγγ"
"If he is willing, ask him to go upside down to my uncle's house, and his daughter will not marry out of Changlong Village. β
"Great, I'll take Xin Xin to the door immediately. β
The eyes of the two collided again, and instantly solidified as if glued.
