Fu Lei has been grateful to Secretary Zhou Yihong since he followed Lu Tao to visit Secretary Zhou Yihong last time, and at the same time, when he was eating with Secretary Huang, he noticed that Secretary Huang was particularly concerned and affectionate about Lu Tao, and he was even more determined to make friends with Lu Tao.

Therefore, when he heard Lu Tao say that Gu Weimin reprimanded him for not being qualified to get on the delegation's special car, Fu Lei's face suddenly froze, and he said very unhappily: "Xiao Gu, Xiao Lu is a member of the village support team in Huaguang Village, Dalong Town, and he goes to the Provincial Department of Finance for official business, why is he not qualified to take this car? There are still several empty seats on this car, and Xiao Lu does not interfere with others, why do you have to stop him? I think you are a typical mechanical, and you also look down on people, you should reflect on it!"

Gu Weimin regretted Mo Die, wiped the sweat beads on his face, and kept nodding and said: "Minister Fu, you are right in your criticism, I am indeed a bit mechanical and rigid, I will review you, and at the same time express my heartfelt apologies to Comrade Xiao Lu." ”

Fu Lei nodded, then raised his eyes to look at Lu Tao and said, "Xiao Lu, call me after you come back from the provincial capital, and we will have a meal, drink tea, and chat together." ”

Lu Tao smiled and agreed.

When Fu Lei left, Gu Weimin hurriedly walked to his side, took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket, took out one and handed it to Lu Tao, and said together with apologies: "Xiao Lu, I'm sorry, I said something too much just now, I hope you don't take it to heart." Come on, please get in the car, I'll sit in the front seat with you, and we'll have a good chat. ”

It turned out that this Gu Weimin was too sleek and sophisticated, and he was a bit flattering and bullying, so Fu Lei didn't have a good impression of him, which made him very distressed, but there was nothing he could do. Therefore, when he saw that Fu Lei and Lu Tao had a very close relationship at this moment, he immediately had an idea to establish a good relationship with Lu Tao, and then let Lu Tao say a few more kind words for him in front of Minister Fu and change his impression in his mind......

Lu Tao was very disgusted with Gu Weimin, a "chameleon"-like character, and heard him say that he wanted to sit in the front row with him to chat, so he said sarcastically: "Section Chief Gu, I am not a member of the delegation, and I am not qualified to sit in this car, if I sit in the front row again, it will cause public anger among the other people in the car, so I should honestly sit in the back row!"

Gu Weimin's face flushed, he smiled wryly, and turned around and said, "It's okay, we will have a chance to chat in the future, and we don't have to rush for a while." Why don't we leave each other's phone numbers or add a WeChat friend, and I'll treat you to dinner or tea when it's convenient for you. ”

Lu Tao saw that he was so persistent and wanted to get close to himself, so he couldn't stay cold anymore, so he had to leave phone calls and WeChat with him, and then got in the car and sat in the last row.

A few minutes later, an Audi sedan drove out of the county party committee compound, slowed down next to the minibus and honked its horn, Gu Weimin quickly ordered the driver to start the car and follow the Audi car to the highway toll station.

At about five o'clock in the afternoon, the bus arrived at a high-speed exit in the southern suburbs of the provincial capital, Gu Weimin answered a phone call, instructed the driver to get off the highway from the southern suburbs exit, and arrived at the door of a hotel called "Yingchun Building" not far from the toll station.

Lu Tao has long heard of the "Yingchun Building", knowing that the two dishes of "Medicinal Chicken" and "Chopped Chili Fried Chicken" here are very famous, and the vehicles rushing to the provincial capital from the direction of Songshan City, if it is time to eat, most of them will get off the highway from the toll station, rush to the "Yingchun Building" to eat a meal of local chicken and then go.

After getting off the bus, Lu Tao saw that the Audi car of the county magistrate of Su was parked at the door of the hotel, and knew that they had gone in first, so he followed Gu Weimin and others in, only to see that there was a big hall inside, because it was dinner time, and dozens of tables in the hall were all full, just like running water seats in the countryside, and the scene was very spectacular.

Gu Weimin had the intention of slapping Lu Tao, and when he saw him walking at the end, he deliberately slowed down and walked in side by side with him, pointing to the bustling hall and introducing him: "Brother Lin, the business of this restaurant is so good, every time I come here to eat, I see such a crowded scene, if you don't book in advance, you have to wait in line for others to vacate the table." According to insiders, the net profit of this restaurant is tens of millions of yuan every year, and this profit of 10 million yuan is earned by two special dishes——"

He just introduced Lu Tao with envy on his face, and didn't pay attention to the slippery floor under his feet, so he fell with a "snort". Fortunately, Lu Tao reacted quickly, grabbed his arm next to him, and lifted him up.

Gu Weimin scolded his mother, turned his head to express his gratitude to Lu Tao, and took him to catch up with the village party secretaries, and came to the box area in the west together, only to see a man in his fifties standing at the door of the No. 9 box, and said to Gu Weimin: "Gu Ke, there is only this small box left in the whole hotel, and it can seat up to eight people. ”

Gu Weimin hurriedly smiled and said to the man: "Director Cai, I am responsible for serving everyone, and I should arrange it." You go to the box first, and I will arrange the tables for the branch secretary and the representatives, order the food, and come in as soon as possible. ”

After Lu Tao waited for the man to enter the box, he asked Gu Weimin: "Gu Ke, is this Director Cai the number one Cai of the Finance Bureau? Why did he come over?"

Gu Weimin said with a smile: "This time, the county magistrate Su went to the provincial capital for two tasks: one is to participate in the new rural construction work experience exchange meeting, and the other is to go to the provincial finance department to strive for new rural construction assistance funds. Those assistance funds will go into the account of the county finance bureau in the future, so Director Cai took the head of the budget unit and the director of the office to the provincial capital. ”

Lu Tao let out an "oh", and saw that Gu Weimin was busy looking for a waiter to arrange a table in the hall, so he stood with Su Yaoguang and waited to be seated.

Because there were too many people waiting to eat, Gu Weimin asked the waiter to talk about it, so he temporarily added a table near the No. 9 box. Gu Weimin beckoned the village party secretaries to take their seats, and when he saw that Lu Tao was also about to sit up, he hurriedly took his hand and said, "Brother Lin, it's crowded enough, you can go to the box with me to sit in the box!" I went to the box just now to take a look, and there are still two vacant seats inside, just enough for the two of us to sit. ”

Lu Tao is a generous and uninhibited character, he doesn't like to talk about hypocrisy and politeness, and when he heard Gu Weimin say that there were still two vacant seats in the box, he followed him into the box generously.

Su Yetai, the county magistrate, Cai Changming, the director of the Finance Bureau, and others, who had already sat in the box, suddenly saw Gu Weimin leading a strange young man in, and their faces suddenly showed a look of displeasure.
