Chapter 19: Is It Okay for This Man to Lend Me?
Feng Xiaochen didn't know that there was a cadre of people who were sharpening their knives, ready to dismantle him. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info He ran out of the coal design institute like the wind, grabbed the moment before the last bus closed, squeezed into the car, and tossed and turned for a long time before returning to the Metallurgical Bureau. When he entered the door, he was still thinking about whether Wang Weilong and they had stewed meat to eat today, he was hungry now, and he felt that even if there was a whole pig stewed in the pot, he would be able to eat it all.
Before he could finish his dream, he saw an office cadre blocking his way and informing him in a tactful tone to go to Director Luo's office first. Of course, this cadre also heard about Feng Xiaochen's "great achievements" in the Coal Research Institute, and he felt a little sympathy and a little inexplicable schadenfreude in his heart, but because Luo Xiangfei had already made a special explanation, asking others not to blame Feng Xiaochen, it was inconvenient for him to say anything.
"Director Luo hasn't gotten off work yet?" Feng Xiaochen asked in surprise. It was already past seven o'clock in the evening, and it was already dark. Of course, Feng Xiaochen knew that Luo Xiangfei often worked overtime, sometimes when he went home at ten or eleven o'clock, and staying in the office at seven o'clock was really not a special thing. He asked this mainly because he was hungry and wanted to find a reason to push down Luo Xiangfei's summons.
Of course, that cadre wouldn't give Feng Xiaochen this opportunity, he nodded and said, "Director Luo hasn't gotten off work yet, he told you to go to his office as soon as you come back, you better go quickly." ”
"Okay. Feng Xiaochen pulled his trouser belt, sighed, and walked towards the office building. The cadre followed him, like an escort, and like an escort, in his mind, Feng Xiaochen had caused such a big disaster, maybe he would abscond in fear of crime.
"Xiao Feng is here?"
Seeing Feng Xiaochen walk into his office, Luo Xiangfei greeted him, and then he made a gesture to the cadre who escorted Feng Xiaochen to signal him to leave, and then asked Tian Wenjian to close the office door.
"This is ......" Feng Xiaochen was even more puzzled, this seems to be something secret to talk about, but think about it, what secrets can there be between himself and Luo Xiangfei? After arriving at the Metallurgical Bureau, Luo Xiangfei only arranged one task for him, that is, to make a data review, even if he wants to listen to his report, it seems that there is no need to be so mysterious.
"Xiao Feng, sit down. Luo Xiang flew and looked at Feng Xiaochen's expression with his eyes at the same time. He found that Feng Xiaochen had a little suspicion on his face, and there was no other expression. It stands to reason that he had just quarreled with a minister and was so angry that he was hospitalized, so he should be a little apprehensive anyway. Could it be that this kid has no heart and lungs, and he doesn't know how outrageous what he has done?
"Where have you been?" Luo Xiangfei decided to ask.
"Coal Research Institute. Feng Xiaochen replied.
"What did you do?"
"Check the information, there is a magazine called "mining_magazine", the second issue of last year published a very good overview of the development of mining machinery, I want to find a look. Since we didn't have this journal in our bureau's reference room, a professor from an outside school told me that the Coal Research Institute had this journal, so I went there. ”
"Did you find it?"
"Found it. ”
"And then?"
"Then?" Feng Xiaochen thought for a moment, "and then I made some notes. ”
"That's all?" Luo Xiangfei continued to ask.
"That's all. Feng Xiaochen said. The exchange with Meng Fanze was a matter that had nothing to do with the Metallurgical Bureau, Feng Xiaochen didn't feel that he needed to explain to Luo Xiangfei, and besides, Luo Xiangfei was probably not interested. So far, he didn't know who the old man's name was, and even if he wanted to tell Luo Xiangfei, he didn't know where to start.
Luo Xiangfei glanced at Tian Wenjian, which meant that the information you got was wrong? Feng Xiaochen obviously didn't know what quarrels and things made the minister angry, could it be a false rumor, not Feng Xiaochen's matter, but it was passed on to him.
Tian Wenjian was sure, Liu Yanping told him very clearly: The data room, young and young, with a letter of introduction from the Metallurgical Bureau, who else could this be Feng Xiaochen? He couldn't figure out why Feng Xiaochen was so calm, could he be an extremely good actor, and he could still pretend to be calm after doing such an outrageous thing?
"Xiao Feng, you are on the side of the Coal Research Institute, and you didn't have a conflict with anyone?" Tian Wenjian began to follow the temptation.
"Conflict? Feng Xiaochen replied, he had a total of two contacts there, the data clerk Wang Yaru and an unknown little old man, Wang Yaru was a little disrespectful to him, but he didn't talk back, so it was not a conflict. As for the little old man, well, I choked a few words in the middle, but the whole atmosphere is very harmonious, so it can't be attributed to conflict, right?
"You didn't meet Minister Meng?" asked Tian Wenjian.
"Minister Meng?" Feng Xiaochen was stunned for a moment, he thought for a while, and asked: "Is it an old comrade who is not tall, has gray hair, and speaks more sonorously, well, the age, it must be about 70." ”
"It's him. Luo Xiangfei chuckled in his heart, although there are many old men who meet this standard, but combined with the complaints from the Coal Research Institute, the person Feng Xiaochen said must be Meng Fanze. From this point of view, Feng Xiaochen did meet Meng Fanze, and things were a little difficult to handle.
"What did you say?" Tian Wenjian asked again.
Feng Xiaochen muttered in his heart, and made trouble for a long time, this little old man is actually a minister, Minister Meng...... Well, it seems to have a bit of an impression that when he was working in the Heavy Equipment Office, this Minister Meng should have retired a long time ago, and he only vaguely remembered that there was such a person, and he didn't know what his name was. However, this minister is too clingy, so he ran away on the pretext of catching a car, and he actually called the Metallurgical Bureau, which means that he has to pester him to have a good chat, right?
The things I talked about with Minister Meng didn't seem to have anything that I couldn't explain to Luo Xiangfei. Some ideas are a little ahead of their time, but they are all tested in practice in later generations, and they are not mistakes. Before leaving, Minister Meng went to get a pen and paper to record what he said, which shows that Minister Meng also agrees with his words, so he won't tell Luo Xiangfei any black things, right?
Thinking about this, Feng Xiaochen had confidence, he said: "Actually, I didn't say anything, and I didn't know that he was Minister Meng at all, because he didn't reveal his identity to me." He saw that I was looking up information about mining machinery, so he discussed a few words with me. Later, I saw that the time was too late, and I was afraid that I would not be able to catch the last train, so I left first. ”
"That's it?" Luo Xiangfei couldn't believe it.
"That's all. Feng Xiaochen replied, this question and answer is the same as just now.
"You didn't make Minister Meng angry?" Luo Xiangfei asked again.
"No, I don't. Feng Xiaochen said, after speaking, he quickly changed his words, and said: "No, I said the wrong sentence in the middle, he was a little angry, but I apologized immediately, and he didn't care." ”
What Feng Xiaochen said was about the incident where he mocked the foundry workers, and that was the only thing that made Meng Fanze reprimand him. Luo Xiangfei asked about the process, and also felt that although Feng Xiaochen's words were not appropriate, it was nothing to be able to apologize immediately. Based on Luo Xiangfei's understanding of Meng Fanze, Meng Fanze is not such a cautious person, so he will not be obsessed with such a sentence.
"Didn't you see Minister Meng getting sick?" Luo Xiangfei said.
"Minister Meng is sick?" Feng Xiaochen was taken aback, he shook his head and said, "When I left, he was fine, and the data clerk in their data room can testify." ”
"What's going on?" Luo Xiangfei furrowed his eyebrows, and he began to feel that there might be something strange about this matter. If it wasn't that Feng Xiaochen deliberately concealed something, it was something wrong on the research institute's side. Perhaps Meng Fanze's illness was an isolated incident and had nothing to do with Feng Xiaochen. As for what quarrels, anger, etc., it may be made up by the people in the research institute themselves, judging from Feng Xiaochen's past performance, this young man is indeed not too impulsive.
"Jingle bell, jingle bell!"
While Luo Xiangfei was pondering, the telephone on his desk rang. He picked up the earpiece, only listened to one sentence, and then replied solemnly: "Minister Meng, hello, I am Xiao Luo!"
Tian Wenjian and Feng Xiaochen both set their eyes on the earpiece in Luo Xiangfei's hand, and their thoughts were different. Tian Wenjian was very entangled in his heart, and he didn't know whether this call was to complain or to clear Feng Xiaochen's name. Feng Xiaochen's idea is relatively simple, he believes that Minister Meng will not be so unreasonable, obviously everyone has a good chat, what can you tell my leader?
"Xiao Luo, let me ask you about someone, is there a young man named Feng Xiaochen in your unit?"
Meng Fanze's voice was full of anger, not at all like a person who was sick and sent to the hospital. Luo Xiangfei's heart was a little more settled, even if Meng Fanze was really hospitalized, it was estimated that it would not be a big problem, and Feng Xiaochen would not have any big responsibility. Hearing that Meng Fanze came up and asked Feng Xiaochen, Luo Xiangfei hurriedly replied: "There is such a comrade, who has just been seconded from the grassroots level by our Metallurgical Bureau, mainly to do some translation work. ”
"It's too condescending to do translation work. Xiao Luo, let me have a discussion with you, will you lend this young man to me? No, no, no, no, it's better to give him to me directly, and I'll transfer him to the ministry and enter the official establishment. "Meng Fanze is worthy of being a deputy minister, and he has excellent conditions with one mouth.
Luo Xiangfei is completely down-to-earth this time, who said that Feng Xiaochen made Minister Meng angry, Minister Meng's words are obviously very appreciative of Feng Xiaochen. It seems that Feng Xiaochen said something unique to Minister Meng over there, and Minister Meng, like himself, has a heart of love for talent. Alas, he was so busy during this time that he didn't bother to have a good talk with Feng Xiaochen, how could his good ideas be cheaper for the people in the coal department?
