Chapter 224: The Director's Invitation
"Five, Four, Three, Two, One......"
"Bell!"
The bell rings on the TV, and the new year has finally arrived.
The sound of firecrackers outside also reached its peak at this time, crackling non-stop, and the sky over the entire old street was filled with colorful flowers.
Li Dong put on his clothes and returned to the pharmacy, moved all the sixteen boxes of ceremonial flowers to the door of Jishitang, and after Lin Hai came with Lin Jing and Hu Xue, Li Dong took out a lighter and lit the ceremonial flowers.
"Whoosh!"
A flash of fire rose into the sky.
With a "bang", beautiful fireworks burst into the sky.
Not only does it fly higher than other houses, but even the spread area is larger than other homes, and of course, it is also the most beautiful.
"Whoosh!"
Boom!
The ceremonial flowers form a huge pattern in the sky, one after another, and from a distance, it looks like a garden, and there are countless small flowers around a huge blooming flower.
People walked out of their homes and into the streets to admire the beautiful fireworks, and some even folded their hands and made wishes.
Sixteen boxes of ceremonial flowers, all released, it took half an hour, there were no beautiful fireworks, people have returned to the warm house, can stay up late to continue to play, can not stay up late to sleep.
Lin Jing belongs to people who can't stay up late, she likes to go to bed early and get up early, staying up to this time is all supported by many people, embarrassed to sleep, after the ceremonial flowers, she finally couldn't resist the sleepiness, and went to bed early, Hu Xue and Lin Jing walked together, the two have been sleeping in the same room, and the work and rest time are the same.
As for Xiaohai, he answered a few calls and drove out to play with friends.
Li Dong was bored alone, and he was a little tired from tossing until midnight, so he also went home to rest.
Chinese New Year's Eve, that's it......
In the next few days, it is basically the time to visit relatives and friends, Li Dong is a single transmission of three generations, there are no relatives, there are a few on my mother's side, but they all belong to a year and may not be able to see each other once, plus my mother is not at home, so Li Dong did not go anywhere, and he opened fire and boiled medicine on the first day of the new year, which can be regarded as a good luck, and I hope that this year can be popular from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.
When you go to work, time always passes very slowly, on the contrary, when you have a holiday, time always passes quickly, and a week of annual leave passes quickly, when people are still immersed in the festive atmosphere of the New Year, but they have to accept the fact of going to work.
For Li Dong, there is no difference between work and rest, boiling medicine for a day and earning money for a day, of course, not one hundred and eighty like other merchants on the old street, but ten million or even more.
Li Dong stayed at home for the entire New Year, and when the New Year came out, the time to be really busy had arrived.
On this day, Li Dong put out the fire early, took a shower at home, changed into clean clothes, and sat in the pharmacy.
"Brother Dong, are you packing up?" Wu Gang looked at Li Dong and asked.
Li Dong nodded, went to the backyard and walked out with a few bottles of wine.
"Brother Dong, what are you doing here? Didn't I say it? Don't bring anything. Wu Gang hurriedly stopped Li Dong and reached out to grab the wine in Li Dong's hand, "Quick, put things down, you're too outward." ”
"Why am I embarrassed to go empty-handed when I go to your house to see my uncle? Besides, this is my own medicinal wine, and it is not bought on the market, if you fight again, then I will return the Moutai you gave me during the Chinese New Year to you." Li Dong said solemnly.
Yes, he is going to Wu Gang's house tonight to see Wu Gang's father, not long ago, Wu Gang's father Wu Guang successfully became the director of the county public security bureau, there was nothing to do with Li Dong, but Wu Gang's father had to invite him, and he could only be respectful and obey.
The conditions of Wu Gang's family are very good, and now that his father has become the director of the bureau again, there must be nothing lacking in the family, Li Dong thought about it, and took two bottles of the medicinal wine he had brewed before, which had the effect of invigorating blood and removing blood stasis, and added a level 10 quick-acting skill, and the effect was even more amazing.
"Okay, let's just bring these two bottles of wine, and don't bring anything else. Wu Gang had no choice but to agree, he was afraid that Li Dong would take it again, so he pulled Li Dong out of the pharmacy.
In the car, Li Dong looked at Wu Gang who was driving, and asked with a smile, "How does it feel to be the son of the director?"
"Alas, don't mention it. Wu Gang sighed and said, "On the first night of my father's tenure, he called me in front of him and told me solemnly, let me keep a low profile, don't cause trouble for him, and in the future, in the bureau, all the bad stinky problems must be changed, don't embarrass him like before." You look at my broken car, I don't know how many hands when I bought it, I was thinking about changing a new car this year, we don't buy the expensive one, let's buy a cheap one, but it was directly rejected by my father, and what do you say in Dongshan, there are few people with cars like me, let me make do with it, Brother Dong, you say, I didn't steal and didn't rob, I spent money to buy it, why can't it?"
"It's called low-key, and the higher the position, the more care you should be. Li Dong said, "Look at the presidents of those stick countries, they were impeached one by one, just because they didn't take care of the people around them, what was the result? ”
"Okay, low-key, I'll listen to you. ”
Gangzi's house is not far from the old street, and it didn't take long to arrive.
In fact, Li Dong didn't come less before, but at that time he was uninvited, this time it was different, it was Gangzi's father who invited him, which made Li Dong, who had been here countless times, suddenly feel a little nervous.
"Dangdang!"
Gangzi knocked on the door and shouted loudly, "Dad, Mom, Brother Dong is here, open the door." ”
Click!
The door opened, and the door was opened by a middle-aged woman, with a goose egg face, straight long hair, and a simple beauty all over her body, this is Chen Shu, the mother of Gangzi, from the County Women's Federation.
"Hello Auntie!" Li Dong hurriedly said, and then handed over the two bottles of wine in his hand, "This is a medicinal wine brewed at home, which invigorates blood and dispels blood stasis, and has a miraculous effect on rheumatism and bone disease." ”
"Dongzi, come here, what else do you bring, you are too outward. Chen Shu said with a smile, "If it weren't for you, my Wu Gang wouldn't have been admitted to the police academy, come in." ”
When Li Dong entered the house, he saw Wu Gang's father, Wu Guang, walking out of the kitchen wearing an apron, still holding a spatula in his hand, "Dongzi is here, sit down, eat fruit, and two dishes, and start cooking after frying." With that, he went back into the kitchen.
Li Dong smiled, it's still the same as before, don't look at Wu Gang's father who is both the director and the director outside, it is called a majesty in front of his subordinates, but in fact, at home, he is a strict wife.
I heard that Gangzi's mother was a famous beauty in Shili and Eight Villages when she was young, and Gangzi's father was average, and the family conditions were average. When he got married, he promised that as long as he was at home, the cooking would be his, and as a result, he had been doing it for more than 20 years.
It didn't take long for the meal to be ready, Wu Guang took off his apron and sat down, stretched out his hand to open the Moutai on the table, "Dongzi, come, sit, this is the Moutai given to me by my comrades-in-arms, it has been put for many years, and this year we must drink this bottle." ”
"Dad, and me!" Wu Gang's eyes lit up, Moutai, don't say you can drink, even if you can't drink, you want to taste it.
"Go, go, don't think I don't know, you kid is on duty tonight, you're like your mother, drink juice. Wu Guang said angrily, and when he looked at Li Dong, he changed to a smiling face, and poured wine for Li Dong with a wine bottle.
"Don't, uncle, let's do it yourself. Li Dong said.
"No, I have to pour this wine for you. Wu Guang pushed Li Dong's hand away, and said, "You, now we are the nobles of our family, I have long heard Gangzi say, he can enter the criminal police team, it all depends on you, to be honest, even I, the director, also have your credit, if you didn't solve the **** case, this director would not be my turn to be the director, originally I thought about it, I retired after a few years in the position of deputy director, I didn't expect my old tree to bloom again, glowing with a second spring, I invite you to come tonight, just to thank you, Gangzi has you as a friend, I rest assured." Come, our whole family toasts you. ”
Li Dong smiled bitterly in his heart and picked up the wine glass, it was not that he had never eaten at Gangzi's house before, but he had never been so formal as at this moment, and he was really a little uncomfortable for a while.
"Uncle, aunt, Gangzi and I are buddies, this kind of trivial matter is not enough to worry about. Li Dong said.
Wu Guang is a very fast person, a small wine cup, about one or two, one bite is dry, and then said to Li Dong, "This is not a trivial matter, personal third-class merit, some people have been a policeman for a lifetime, and they can't get one, Gangzi This kid is lucky, he has only been working for two years, and he got two, don't think that your uncle and I are an official fan, but with these things, when I go up, I am faster than others." In the past, it was difficult for me to help him lift up, but now he doesn't need my help, he can do it himself. ”
Li Dong nodded, what he said was right, so he also dried it up.
"Brother Dong, I heard that the people from Zhongkang Company are back, didn't they smash your company before?" and how are they now?" Wu Gang suddenly asked.
Li Dong knew that Wu Gang deliberately mentioned it to his father, which was to ask his father to help take care of him. "The people of the big place, arrogant, nothing. Li Dong said indifferently.
"Dongzi, I have heard about you and Zhongkang Pharmaceutical Company, if they come to trouble you again in the future, you will call the police, don't think that it is great to come from the provincial capital, no matter where you go, you have to abide by the law, Dongshan only welcomes law-abiding businessmen. Wu Guang said solemnly.
"Uncle, with your words, I can do it boldly with confidence. Li Dong said with a smile.
"Brother Dong, the first month of the new year has passed, and it is about to be the season of farming, how are the thirty or so villages you contracted now, and when are you going to start construction? Wu Gang said with his waist straightened and patted his chest.
"Pull it down, it's just you, it's good not to mess with me. Wu Guang glanced at his son, and then said to Li Dong, "I have a classmate who is at the agricultural machinery station, and he told me that he was short of machines or something, and I asked him to shoot people, and nothing else was needed, just serve a meal." ”
Li Dong's eyes lit up, he was worried about this matter, he was even ready to buy the machine himself, "Thank you, uncle, I won't be polite!"
