Text Text_Chapter 199: Cabaret

The two of them studied their ears and temples for a while, and Xia Xue finally figured it out.

Li Rui saw that she understood, so he offered to leave. Xia Xue said: "Director Li, are you free next Friday night? Our city art troupe will hold a singing and dancing party in the city auditorium, and there is a program for me in it. Can you come and cheer me on?" Li Rui didn't know what she was thinking, and stared at her for a while. Xia Xue smiled brighter at him. Li Rui said: "What time does it start and what time does it end? I'm afraid I won't have time to pass." Xia Xue said: "It officially starts at seven o'clock in the evening, and my show is the finale, and it will be after half past eight." Li Rui thought about it, the time was about the same, but he was a little reluctant, so he said: "I'll try my best, if I have time, I'll go over and cheer you on, hehe." Xia Xue was very happy to hear this, found her small bag, took out two tickets from it, handed it to him, and said, "This is an internal ticket, you can just take the ticket and go directly." Li Rui took it and said, "Give me two." Xia Xue smiled: "You can invite relatives and friends to come and see." Of course, I'd prefer you to come alone, hehe. Li Rui glanced at her when he heard this, and Xia Xue smiled at him coquettishly.

Li Rui didn't know what she had in mind, but since she didn't say it, she would never take the initiative to ask, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll fight for someone to come over." Xia Xue was overjoyed and said, "Then I have to rehearse carefully, and strive to show you the most beautiful me when the time comes." Xia Xue smiled and said, "As the leader of the municipal party committee, I will show you the most beautiful side of myself, hoping to get your encouragement and support." Li Rui smiled and said, "Well, then I'll see you then." Xia Xue made a gentle and ladylike appearance again, lowered her head slightly, and said reservedly: "Then Director Li, can I ask for your mobile phone number?" But don't worry, I won't call casually if I get it, I know that you are very busy, and I won't harass you easily, hehe." Li Rui smiled and entered the mobile phone number on her mobile phone, jokingly: "It's easy not to harass, then when is the harassment?" Xia Xue laughed and said: "I will harass you when you are willing to be harassed by me." ”

Li Rui saw that this girl was not stupid, she was not shrewd, she was cute and beautiful, and she liked it a little in her heart, but she was unwilling to confess her good impression of her, and thought, just develop freely with her, love what, don't force anything, everything is fate, say goodbye to her with a smile, and withdraw from her room.

After resting for a while, Li Rui came out of the house, found the representative of the Municipal Communist Youth League, and told him that he wanted to say goodbye to the host Sang Pengfei, but he couldn't find him, so he could only forget it.

He came to the parking lot downstairs of the hotel and found that Zhang Hui was already sitting in the driver's seat, and Xu Jianqiang had also gotten into the car.

Li Rui opened the back door and sat in, and asked casually: "Minister Sang in the county said that he sent some souvenirs, what are they?" Xu Jianqiang hurriedly said: "Oh, Director, I almost forgot if you didn't ask, in addition to the souvenirs that everyone has, Minister Sang also specially gave you a gift." Li Ruiqi said: "You gave me a gift?" Xu Jianqiang said: "It's not just you, we all have it, but you have this one that Minister Sang specially explained." I'm separated from other souvenirs, and it's in the back seat of you. ”

Li Rui looked sideways, and sure enough, there was a red bag on the back seat. The texture of this bag is non-cloth and non-hemp, at first glance it is similar to the shopping bag in the supermarket, very inconspicuous, no wonder I didn't notice it at first sight, when I took it, I found that the bag was quite heavy, I didn't know what it contained, put it on my legs, stretched the bag open, and when I looked at it, it was a red wooden box inside. What's inside the wooden box, no one knows.

Li Rui guessed that the so-called gifts in this were definitely more valuable than the ones Xu Jianqiang and they received, otherwise why would Sang Pengfei order him to put it alone? He had the heart to open this wooden box to see what was inside, and he was afraid that Zhang Hui and Xu Jianqiang would be unbalanced after seeing it, but if he didn't look at it, if Sang Pengfei gave him any heavy gifts, he would take them away and take them home, wouldn't it be equivalent to taking bribes? When the lid of the wooden box was lifted, a delicate and ornate enamel box appeared inside.

Seeing such a beautiful enamel box, Li Rui's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but take the box out of the wooden box and stared at it.

The box is fifteen centimeters long, six or seven centimeters high, and ten centimeters wide, making a miniature cabinet shape, with a total of gold, white, pink, tender blue, sky blue and other colors, and there is a square classical clock inlaid on the front of the box, one inch square, and the watch hand is ticking and walking. The four sides of the box are made of ancient Chinese auspicious patterns with filigree technology, which at first glance looks like the shape of ancient Chinese wooden windows. In addition to the front, the other three sides are inlaid with circular landscape paintings, and the top of the box is a set of Western landscape paintings. The four pillars and octagons of the box are sealed with golden enamel glaze, which looks brilliant, rich and luxurious.

The box is not big, but on the whole, it is gorgeous, elegant and beautiful, and it is really a rare handicraft.

Li Rui himself has never seen such a beautiful and precious enamel box, and he doesn't know what this box is for, gently opened the lid of the box, and found that there are other mysteries inside, there are three small warehouses distributed on the left, middle and right, and there is a mirror on the inside of the lid. But what kind of jewelry or cosmetics are worthy of such a precious enamel box?

"Shhh...... This thing must be very valuable, I can't ask for it!" Li Rui's heart turned, and he took out his mobile phone to call Sang Pengfei, but when he took out his mobile phone, he remembered that he only left him a mobile phone number, but he didn't ask for him, so he hurriedly covered the enamel box, stuffed it back into the wooden box, picked up the bag, and said to Zhang Hui and Xu Jianqiang: "You two wait for me, I have an urgent matter." After saying that, he pushed the door and got out of the car.

Li Rui went back to the hotel and walked around, but did not find Sang Pengfei's figure, it is estimated that he may have given himself this gift, for fear that he would return it to him after he found out, so he left first and did not give himself a chance to return it. However, even if he dodged it, he couldn't accept this gift himself. The value of such a valuable enamel box is likely to be in the tens of thousands, how can he accept it for nothing? Once he accepts it, won't he even accept the benefits of Sang Pengfei? Later, he will find the city to ask for his help, and he will help himself or not?

"This Sang Pengfei actually played with me, hum. Li Rui was angry and amused, and secretly thought, since I can't find him, I will find his subordinates who stayed, wouldn't it be the same to find him?

He was just about to go to find Sang Pengfei's subordinates, when the figure in the corridor in front of him flickered, and when he raised his eyes, he was surprised and delighted, who was it not Sang Pengfei? Sang Pengfei caught a glimpse of him walking over with a red bag, and already understood his intentions, he smiled, pulled him to the stairwell next to the elevator hall, and said, "Director Li, this is not a personal gift from me, and I personally don't have that much money." Hehe, this is sent on behalf of the 400,000 fathers and villagers in Wulong County. We are very touched by the fact that you have traveled hundreds of miles from the city to Wulong to care for the healthy growth of our children in Wulong County. In order to express our gratitude, we Wulong County Court Enamel Art Factory has provided such enamel crafts and asked us to donate them to you. First, it is to express gratitude to your volunteer activities; second, it is also to leave you a commemoration of coming to our Wulong; third, you are all city leaders, are big people, and have a wide range of contacts in the city, please help us Wulong enamel products and friends in the future to publicize, that is more powerful than advertising, therefore, this small gift is also a reward for you to help advertise. Hehe, so ah, you just take it. ”

Li Rui was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't know which sentence he said was true or false, and asked, "You still have the palace enamel art factory in Wulong?" Sang Pengfei exclaimed when he heard this: "Of course." Director Li, do you know that our Wulong enamel artworks have been used by the Qing court since the Qing Dynasty. The copper hot pot we make here is hand-picked by Cixi Lafayette, and it is specially used to eat mutton shabu. The jewelry box we made here was also the favorite of the harem concubines in the Qing Dynasty. Li Rui exclaimed: "I can't imagine that your Wulong enamel artworks have such a glorious and long history." By the way, is this gift one per person?" Sang Pengfei nodded and said, "One per person." But to be honest, this gift to Director Li is the most top-notch and best gift. Li Rui breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said: "This is a jewelry box, right, how much does it cost to sell for at the market price?" Sang Pengfei smiled and said: "If you want to say how much it is, it doesn't cost much, mainly to see if there are people who know the goods." By the way, Director Li, are you going back to the city? Alas, Director Li, I hit you off at first sight and really want to make friends with you, but unfortunately you, as a person close to Secretary Song, are busy with official business, and I can't keep you for two more days. Another day, when I go to Qingyang on business, I will ask you to stay for a while and listen to your teachings. ”

Li Rui saw that he avoided the topic of price, estimated that it was worth a lot of money, and wanted to return it, but after thinking about it, since everyone had received one, it was not too much to receive one by himself. People also made it clear that he didn't send it himself, but instead of the palace enamel factory, he kept it for himself as a souvenir, and at the same time let himself help with advertising, which was considered a prepaid payment, and definitely not a bribe, in this case, don't be hypocritical. What his godbrother Li Ming said that day is very reasonable, sometimes, it is not good for people not to accept gifts, and they will offend people. Alas, then take it.
