In the afternoon of the same day, Ao Chuan was going to visit his uncle who lived in Yincheng.

Ao Chaoyi has four brothers and sisters, an older brother and younger brother, and a younger sister. The eldest brother, Ao Chaoren, raises deer in the countryside. Her younger sister, Ao Chaoxi, is a general clerk at the Municipal Health Bureau. Only this little brother Ao Chaoxin is young but capable, and at the age of thirty-five, he is already the executive deputy director of the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau.

In his previous life, Ao Chuan was able to work as a secretary in the municipal government office, relying on his uncle Ao Chaoxin to help dredge up the relationship.

Ao Chaoxin is always busy. Today, Ao Chuan's aunt has already prepared a table full of dishes, and even Ao Chuan's aunt and uncle rushed to the uncle's house after receiving a call, but Ao Chaoxin has not come back yet.

Ao Chuan's uncle is called Duan Shiwen, who is very easy-going but has a very high temperament, and probably belongs to the category of talented people often mentioned in the market. I know astronomy and geography and know the three religions and nine streams, understand the I Ching gossip, and fine finance and current affairs, but I just can't be an official. He has a serious old high school education, and he is still working as a general clerk in the Land Bureau in his fifties.

And Ao Chuan's uncle Ao Chaoxin is just the opposite, he doesn't have any of the advantages of his brother-in-law Duan Shiwen, and even if his daughter-in-law goes back to her parents' house, he even worries about eating and dressing himself.

But people will be officials!

The same brothers and sisters, the same conditions, the others are almost all ordinary people, only Ao Chaoxin is a deputy department-level leader, and he is also the real leader of the unit.

"Smack", Duan Shiwen opened a bottle of Wuliangye brought by Ao Chuan, pointed to the clock and said with a smile: "Within five minutes, Chaoxin will definitely arrive home." The hot dish is ready to stir-fry, and the stew is ready to be cooked. ”

Sure enough, before he could even arrive for three minutes, Ao Chaoxin pushed the door in. Duan Shiwen was proud.

Ao Chaoxin was very happy to see that Ao Chuan had come back from college, and the uncle and nephew had not seen each other for half a year. When you come up, you can have a drink with Ao Chuan, a glass or two.

After a while, he saw that Ao Chuan's face was red, and he said that after Ao Chuan was admitted to university, it was equivalent to stepping into society with one foot, and he should practice drinking. Otherwise, when it comes to society, whether it is in politics or business, many occasions will be tied.

"My grandfather made wine, so you can all drink it. But my dad doesn't make wine, wow, it's normal that I can't drink it. Ao Chuan said that he would not drink like that with his uncle anymore.

Ao's father and three brothers can drink it, each of them is a pound of white wine, and their bodies do not shake their feet or float. If you really drink to the depths of your love and are in the mood for war, then you can still walk home by yourself if you continue to come for another half a catty.

Although Ao Chaoxin was not very satisfied with his nephew's drinking, it was obvious that Ao Chuan had come back from college this time, and he had matured a lot, and he had already shown a calm appearance in his gestures.

This is the most celebratory thing.

Ao Chaoxin happily toasted three glasses with his brother-in-law Duan Shiwen, and then while Duan Shiwen's face turned red, the wine in the cup was also changed to a crimson red robe.

Although Ao Chaoxin can drink, he never dares to compare with his second brother Ao Chaoyi.

Ao Chaoyi, Ao Dad, no one knows how much liquor he can drink. It's not that he hasn't tried, but he tried to even be scared of himself.

The amount of beer is even more unclear, someone once asked Ao Chaoyi how much beer he could drink, and Ao Chaoyi's father didn't speak at that time, just casually stretched out a finger.

Ten bottles?Ao Chaoyi shook his head.

A box? Ao Chaoyi still shook his head.

The man didn't believe it, and said that if you said you could drink ten cases of beer, it would be nonsense, and it was not interesting.

Ao Chaoyi looked at one of his outstretched fingers and smiled: "My one, what I represent is not how many bottles or how many cases of wine, but one, straight, drink!" As long as you can sit still, you can drink to the end.

I don't know about the whole Northeast, but in Yincheng, it was Ao Chaoyi who created the precedent of "one finger drink".

When everyone drank to the head, they talked a lot, so they talked about several difficult things in the Water Conservancy Bureau recently, and Ao Chaoxin asked his brother-in-law Duan Shiwen to help him come up with ideas.

Duan Shiwen can't be an official himself, but his ability to come up with ideas as a staff member is extraordinary. After a cup of tea, a few whimsical ideas popped out, which immediately made Ao Chaoyi feel suddenly enlightened.

Ao Chuan listened to it next to him, and suddenly remembered something.

He didn't speak immediately, but thought twice.

Finally, I think that Uncle Ao Chaoxin can be said to be the pillar of the family, and he is the only big tree that he can rely on to enjoy the shade after graduation. The stakes are high, so the sooner you say it, the better.

"Uncle, Zhu Hongshang of your bureau is not safe, you have to keep your distance from him, and it is best not to have anything to do with him. ”

Zhu Hongshang is the head of the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau, while Ao Chaoxin is the executive deputy director.

According to common sense, the relationship between the first and second leaders of most units is not very harmonious, but the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau is an exception.

Zhu Hongshang is very old, and will retire in two years, while Ao Chaoxin is very young. One attaches importance to practical interests and grasps the big and lets go of the small; the other attaches importance to the name and achievements, and is active and willing to work hard.

So the old and the young cooperate quite well, and it can even be said that they complement each other.

But the thing is that the two get too close.

In the previous life, it should be the end of June of the following summer, Zhu Hongshang's family went out to travel to Huanglong, Jiuzhai, Shudu, and invited the uncle's family to go too.

It is said that there is basically no big water in the north this season. But something happened, and after a few days of walking, suddenly heavy rain fell for several days, and the dam on the northern section of the Mulan River was washed away.

The affected towns and villages suffered heavy losses, and even killed people.

When the city's senior officials and the mayor arrived at the scene of the disaster, Zhu Hongshang and Ao Chaoxin were still anxiously waiting for the flight at Shudu Airport.

Later, the accident investigation revealed that the dam in the HB section of Mulan was a tofu slag project, which was mainly grasped by Zhu Hongshang, and he was directly invited to the Commission for Discipline Inspection for tea.

Later, Zhu Hongshang was found to have a series of corruption and bribery and other issues, involving a group of people.

Although Ao Chaoxin was not directly responsible, and he did not take bribes, he also followed the pot with grievances. Who let him be at the critical moment, and the person was not on the scene. In the end, although the post of deputy director was not removed, the ranking fell to the bottom, and since then it has fallen silent in officialdom.

But at this moment, no one at the table would know about this.

Ao Chaoxin looked at Ao Chuan in surprise, and he was very surprised. His nephew, who had never cared about politics before, suddenly said such strange things today.

Others were also puzzled by Ao Chuan's headless words.

Ao Chuan drank too much wine before, and at the same time felt that the matter was important, so he didn't think much about it, and the words went straight out. Now to everyone's surprise, it is really not easy for him to explain to everyone with conventional truths.

He paused and said slowly: "I was in college, and I heard that Zhu Hongshang was told to the province about something, maybe he found a relationship to suppress it. ”

"How do you know this?" Ao Chaoxin was even more surprised, and simply put down his chopsticks and looked at Ao Chuan.

"I was in college, in the same dormitory as Gan Hongze's son, Gan Rui. Isn't Gan Hong now in the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection? I have a very strong relationship with Gan Rui, and he sometimes pulls me to listen to him talk about the officialdom of our Liaodong Province. I didn't have anything to say, so I mentioned to him that you were in our Yincheng Water Conservancy Bureau, and he may have asked his father about you on the phone. Then it didn't take long for Gan Rui to tell me about Zhu Hongshang, and he told me. ”

Gan Hong was the mayor of Yincheng City before he went to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, so Ao Chaoxin, who was in the officialdom, naturally knew about his situation.

Ao Chaoxin then asked Zhu Hongshang about it deeply.

But Ao Chuan knew that if he said it again, he would be in danger of not being able to lie, so he simply deduced that Gan Rui had only talked to him once, and never talked about it again. If he hadn't mentioned the Water Conservancy Bureau at the wine table today, he would have forgotten it.

Ao Chaoxin couldn't ask anything, and felt that it was normal, after all, it was not easy to happen to know this. Gan Hong is most likely just to remind his son that his classmate Ao Chuan has a shallow foundation and may not be able to grow into a help in his political journey in the future.

So Ao Chaoxin solemnly instructed Ao Chuan that he must continue to have a good relationship with Gan Rui, and he may be of great use after graduation.
