Secretary Cheng came to the provincial capital this time to stay at the Zhongzhou International Hotel, instead of the Zhongyuan Hotel he often chose in the past. In terms of facilities, the two hotels are almost comparable. But how to make a choice between the two hotels, Secretary Cheng took great pains.

Built in the fifties, the Zhongyuan Hotel is the first provincial-level reception unit after the capital of Zhongyuan Province moved to Zhongzhou City, and is subordinate to the Provincial Political Axe Reception Office. Generally, municipal axe officials from all over the Central Plains Province will choose to stay in the Central Plains Hotel when they come to Zhongzhou City on business, which makes the Central Plains Hotel actually a symbol and a status symbol.

Zhongzhou International Hotel is the most luxurious foreign-related hotel in Zhongzhou City, mainly used to receive foreign guests who come to Central Plains Province for sightseeing. Few political axe officials choose to stay here.

So why did Secretary Cheng give up the Zhongyuan Hotel and take the Zhongzhou International Hotel this time? Because it is inconvenient for others to know what Secretary Cheng did when he came to Zhongzhou City this time, except for his henchman Secretary Zhang, no one in the county knows the real purpose of Secretary Cheng's visit to Zhongzhou City. He chose to come to Zhongzhou International Hotel, not only to avoid the embarrassment of meeting acquaintances, but also to lose the identity of the deputy secretary of the county party committee because the hotel facilities were too poor.

It was the first time for Zhao Changfeng to come to such a high-end hotel. Before that, he had stayed in a small hotel for eight dollars a day. But following Secretary Zhang, Zhao Changfeng was calm, and he didn't have the embarrassment and embarrassment of entering a high-end place for the first time.

Even if he was mentally prepared, Zhao Changfeng was still taken aback by the luxury of the room where Secretary Cheng lived. At the entrance was a huge living room, very high and wide, with a huge painting hanging on the wall facing the door, in which the naked Venus was rising from a huge shell under the protection of a group of angels. The floor was covered with rich wool stalls that almost submerged the top of your feet. Antique mahogany furniture and tall and wide leather sofas make it look special. On the other side of the living room, there is a large floor-to-ceiling window that occupies almost the entire wall. The openwork gold velvet curtains on the floor-to-ceiling windows are halfway open, and the winter sun shines in. Next to the floor-to-ceiling windows, there is a hollow wooden wall decorated with bright green flowers and wood, and through the gap between the wooden walls, you can see a small bar counter, a crystal chandelier, and a small wine cabinet with five or six bottles of imported wine.

Smelling the faint fragrance in the air, Zhao Changfeng was shocked in his heart. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have imagined that the living room of a hotel could be so luxuriously decorated. It's not often that you see this kind of furnishings even in movie shots. It seems that it is good to be an official, and a deputy secretary of the county party committee lives in a hotel, and it is such a luxurious room.

Zhao Changfeng sighed in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and there was still a faint reserve.

Secretary Cheng had already greeted him warmly, he held Zhao Changfeng's hand tightly and shook it back and forth, and shouted affectionately: "Changfeng, brother Changfeng, I finally invited you." ”

Letting Zhao Changfeng go to the wide sofa in the middle, Secretary Cheng sat beside Zhao Changfeng affectionately. Secretary Zhang went to the refrigerator in the corner of the living room and took two bottles of French Evian mineral water and put them on the coffee table on the marble countertop. Then he said to Secretary Cheng: "Secretary Cheng, do you eat Western or Chinese food at noon?" ”

Secretary Cheng laughed and said, "It's better for Brother Changfeng to take the idea." ”

Zhao Changfeng has never eaten Western food, he knows that there are many rules of Western food, although he has also learned some rules of eating Western food in magazines, but he is not sure of the accuracy in his heart when he remembers. If he accompanied Secretary Cheng to eat Western food and make a joke, wouldn't Zhao Changfeng be a bad actor?

"Hehe, Secretary Cheng, let's eat Chinese food." Zhao Changfeng smiled faintly, "If you talk about the breadth and profundity of food culture, it is still our Chinese cuisine." These foreign devils have just come down from the tree, and they have not completely departed from the eating habits of Ru Mao and drinking blood, what kind of catering culture do they know? It's okay to eat this Western food once in a while, but if you eat it often, I can't accept it. ”

"Yes, yes, Brother Changfeng is right. Look at the appearance of those foreigners, the gorillas who have just climbed down from the trees, they know what it means to eat? Secretary Cheng instructed Secretary Zhang: "Let's eat Chinese food." You go to the third floor and book a private room. ”

Secretary Zhang was ordered to go out.

Secretary Cheng said to Zhao Changfeng: "Brother Changfeng, it's still early, let's talk with me first." When it's time to eat, Secretary Zhang will come and call us. ”

Zhao Changfeng smiled slightly and said, "Secretary Cheng, don't go around in any circles." If you have anything to do with me, just tell me. ”

Secretary Cheng laughed and praised Zhao Changfeng for his intelligence, no wonder he was admitted to university, a hundred times smarter than him, a soldier from a soldier. He originally wanted to play a trick on Zhao Changfeng, but he didn't expect Zhao Changfeng to see through it at a glance.

Zhao Changfeng didn't speak, opened the cap of the mineral water bottle, took a small sip, leaned back on the sofa, rested his head on his hands, and looked at Secretary Cheng lightly, waiting for him to continue.

Secretary Cheng praised Zhao Changfeng twice, and seeing that Zhao Changfeng didn't answer, he had to continue to say: "Okay, Brother Changfeng, since you are so simple, I will open the window and say something." Does my brother know Governor Zhao? ”

Zhao Changfeng immediately sat up straight, stared at Secretary Cheng and asked, "Secretary Cheng, who did you listen to?" ”

Secretary Cheng laughed dryly and said, "It doesn't matter who you listen to, the important thing is whether Brother Changfeng knows Governor Zhao?" ”

In fact, Zhao Changfeng knows without asking, except for Secretary Cheng's fellow countryman, Zhao Changfeng's secretary of the general party branch, who else will tell Secretary Cheng?

"Yes, I know Governor Zhao." Zhao Changfeng leaned back on the sofa and said lightly. He does know Governor Zhao, but whether Governor Zhao knows him or not, it's hard to say.

Secretary Cheng nodded happily and said, "Sure enough!" He moved his fat body to Zhao Changfeng's side, and said to Zhao Changfeng affectionately: "Brother Changfeng, can you do my brother a favor and let Governor Zhao help me say a few words?" ”

"Hehe," Zhao Changfeng waved his hand and said to Secretary Cheng: "Secretary Cheng, are you looking for the wrong person?" Let Governor Zhao help you speak, you should go to someone else for this kind of thing, why did you come to me? ”

Seeing that Zhao Changfeng didn't agree, Secretary Cheng suddenly became anxious, he grabbed Zhao Changfeng's hand and said, "Brother Changfeng, if I have another way, brother, will I come to trouble you?" Brother Changfeng, brother I am desperate now, Brother Changfeng has to help my brother no matter what! ”
