Chapter Ninety-Eight: A Deep Conversation in the Small Pavilion 3

"The trees want to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop!" Qi Tianxiang picked up the cigarette case on the table, handed one to Lu Shanzun, took a deep breath after lighting it, and blurted out with emotion with the thick smoke, "It looks simple, but it's not simple, how many of these beautiful cakes are there?" What is the content, you need to carefully find out, grasp the first-hand information, and make some preparations in advance, so as not to be caught off guard when you get it. ”

"You reminded me in a timely manner, I heard that people in Hong Kong have brought back more than a dozen big orders, and they have already shown signs of landing, but they are reluctant to make it public, so they have to wait until the necessary time to release satellites?" Lu Shanzun listened to Qi Tianxiang's emotion, and sincerely echoed and said: "It is difficult for Lao Fang to communicate with others now, and it is difficult for me to see him now, and it is lukewarm to see, although it is not as arrogant and ignorant as Lao Fang, but it is true that I don't want to talk deeply, and I have not interfered too much in government affairs during this period, it seems that it is better to understand him in detail, as you said, make some preparations in advance." ”

"No matter what, don't meddle too much, just do your own thing." Qi Tianxiang smiled faintly, and slowly pointed to the soup pot and said: "Just like what you just said, what one yuan gives birth to two yi, two yi gives birth to four elephants, four elephants give birth to gossip, and the wonder of the illusion in the soup, in fact, they are all appearances, and they are only the face, and what the inside is like, you need to really taste it to know." Therefore, the beauty of the article is not in the wording, but in the depth and connotation, and even these are not clear, except for the motive, it is the idea, which is worth studying. ”

"It's worth it, it's kind of interesting." Lu Shanzun looked at Qi Tianxiang deeply, and thought slowly: "I haven't been with your old buddy for a long time, but I have benefited a lot, I have really learned a lot of things, and I need to slowly comprehend and digest them." ”

"I love to listen to this, and if I say a few more words, is there still 'listening to your words, it is better than reading a book for ten years', or 'everyone is noisy and silent, and the reverie is intended to break the earth'! When did honest people learn these clichΓ©s? Qi Tianxiang glared at Lu Shanzun with slight dissatisfaction, and said angrily: "Since you are so humble to learn, of course I can't be too stingy, buy one get one free, at least I have to send you some dry goods." ”

Lu Shanzun pretended to be very interested, slowly got up, and said respectfully: "I wish to listen to you, please give me advice!" ”

"What teaching? I don't know what's in the soup yet. Qi Tianxiang glanced at Lu Shanzun angrily, and said slowly: "Since people are already planning the layout, we can't stand idly by, we might as well take a walk around the various urban districts with great fanfare and feel the situation, the key is to look at the ideological dynamics of our district and county leaders, and it is good to have a target!" ”

"This spared such a big turn, held it for a long time, and finally came out of the bottom." Lu Shanzun's eyes lit up, and he laughed and joked: "Have you planned it a long time ago, maybe it was premeditated, just waiting for this moment to reveal the pot." ”

"I wasn't in the mood at first, but it's easy for you to have a better mood for dinner, and you are chattering about Taoist culture to me, don't you just take the time to talk about this matter?" Qi Tianxiang couldn't help but laugh at Lu Shanzun's words, and said slowly: "This is also the feeling that Wang Shimin's statement gave me in the afternoon, I didn't have this kind of idea in the morning, just his praise and praise such as insisting or implementing, which made me feel a little faintly uneasy in my heart." If this is just Wang Shimin's thoughts and behaviors, it is understandable, after all, between you and me, he chose me, which is nothing more than two possibilities, one is that he claims to be familiar with me, and the other is that his ambition is not in Hezhou City, otherwise it is more practical to slap you. This is a Xicheng District, what is the situation in other districts and counties, and where are the cadres, especially the top cadres, thinking? What are you going to do, you should get in touch with them, listen to their confessions, the key is to see their performance, the so-called 'hearing is false, seeing is believing'! ”

"We should take a closer look, the current cadres are very shrewd, know what kind of mentality they should have, what kind of things to do, the simplest and most convenient way, or the great leap forward in urban construction, not only fast, but also good operation, can gain fame and fortune." Lu Shanzun listened carefully to Qi Tianxiang's thoughts, and slowly responded: "The mayor was born in urban construction, so he is naturally interested in urban construction, and the sale of land has greatly increased the financial revenue. ”

Qi Tianxiang heard Lu Shanzun talk about Chengjiankou, and suddenly remembered something and became interested, and said with a little eagerness: "I really haven't remembered if you don't mention Chengjiankou, the more than a dozen major projects that you mentioned just now are all related to urban construction. ”

"You mean Fat Wang! Now that everyone in Hezhou's official and business circles knows that he is your hardcore and a conscientious capitalist you trust, you expect him to inquire about you for news? Lu Shanzun smiled slightly, and said disdainfully: "I haven't heard that I would rather use outsiders than relatives and friends to engage in projects and contract projects now, and clearly say that it is a melon field and plum to avoid suspicion, and the actual deeper reason is that outsiders are better to speak, have better operations, and the transfer of interests has always been a problem that cannot be ignored, and safety cannot be taken lightly." ”

"That being said, I also know that it is inconvenient for Wang Fatzi to come forward too much now, and he may not know too much, but after all, the people in his profession have a certain prestige and influence, and there will be a lot of things that can be heard, and maybe things that we can't know will become an open secret in them." Qi Tianxiang thought slowly and said: "In addition, with so many projects coming in, it is impossible to be impermeable at all, after all, we are immersed in the pile of things, and we still need to find professionals for things on the scene, which is more reliable and safer." ”

Qi Tianxiang spoke, looked at Lu Shanzun, and specially added: "Of course this is my method, just an auxiliary, the important thing is your measures, there are many ways to see the sun, ducks have duck roads, turtles have turtle roads!" ”

"How can I listen to this scolding, without such insinuations." Lu Shanzun originally picked up the cup and was about to drink with Qi Tianxiang, but when he heard this, he put down the wine glass dissatisfiedly, and said unhappily: "We still have to talk about it, otherwise I can't carry out this investigation, and there is always the meaning of Dong Shi Xiaofeng in it." ”

"Okay, okay, I apologize, I blame me for not keeping my mouth shut, I'll punish myself with a cup." Qi Tianxiang smiled and raised his hand to beg for mercy, picked up the wine glass and drank it all, and then said seriously: "Let's find out the bottom number first, otherwise it will be very passive at that time." ”

Qi Tianxiang watched Lu Shanzun fill the wine again, glanced at his watch, and said slowly: "It's past nine o'clock, let's eat something and leave, there are not many guests, it is estimated that Boss Liu should also close and rest."

"It doesn't matter, Boss Liu doesn't have the problem of closing here, as long as you don't have anything, just sit down, the boss doesn't urge, the guy doesn't rush, this is another feature of people here." Lu Shanzun picked up the cup and motioned for Qi Tianxiang to toast, and after drinking the wine, he said slowly: "I said that I will not receive it after half past eight, I am talking about raw guests, acquaintances can come at any time, just like paying the bill, Boss Liu here, when it comes to a certain time, people will clean up and rest, you can eat and drink enough and pat your ass and leave, go to the door and put the money in a cardboard box, and take it to the door." Or call it your own tavern, and it's like your own home. In addition to what dishes to eat, Boss Liu needs to settle down, pour water, take wine, or add side dishes, you can do it yourself, and you don't need the boss to handle it himself. ”

"This is a bit do-it-yourself, the meaning of abundant food and clothing, this business philosophy and leisurely lifestyle, but very special, also very tasteful, very much like the ancient literati Yaji interest, come at will, go at will, no deliberate hospitality and protocol, a cup of tea, three cups or two light wine, to arrive is free, comfortable." Qi Tianxiang's mood immediately rose, and he said with great interest: "It seems that Boss Liu is determined to be retro!" In today's materialistic and secular society, what will be the result of such an attempt? As we have just seen, with only one table of guests, can you make a living? ”。

"It's not worrying, it's reduced materialistic desires and greed, but in fact, it doesn't take a lot." Lu Shanzun knew the question in Qi Tianxiang's heart, so he said with a smile: "Originally, there were not many dishes prepared every day, that is, more than a dozen, and there was no need to deliberately show up at noon and night, it was basically solved, although the profit was not abundant, it was not a worry to support the family." Boss Liu has a son who is studying in college in the south, and the two of them are pure-hearted and have little desire, and there is no excessive spending, and there is still no problem with his son's tuition and living expenses. ”

"What's even more strange is that all restaurants are picky restaurants, and only here are picky eaters." Lu Shanzun said with great interest: "All the guests who come to eat, except for the occasional fresh guests, are basically repeat customers. The behavior, conversation, style, and conduct of the guests who come for the first time are all important criteria for whether they can be accepted for the second time, and those who have vulgar language, grotesque behavior, or misconduct will never have the opportunity to be received again. Therefore, the people who come here to eat are all regulars, and they are all people who can be accepted and seen by Boss Liu, which is a bit of a gentleman's friendship! ”

"This is a bit interesting, I can't change the society and others, but I can stay away and avoid, pure heart and indifference is one way, restraining myself, there is more space for self-existence, it seems that Boss Liu's cultivation has reached the realm." Qi Tianxiang praised sincerely, but he still looked at Lu Shanzun puzzled and asked, "How much is it appropriate to give a table like ours today?" ”

"Didn't you say whatever? It doesn't matter if you give more, if you don't, if you don't, if you don't give less. Lu Shanzun said with a big grin, but he still looked at Qi Tianxiang and said truthfully: "I usually put two hundred yuan in the box, and I don't know if it's more or less, anyway, I just do it with all my heart." ”

Lu Shanzun looked at Qi Tianxiang with a smile and said teasingly: "Of course, you have a high income, it doesn't matter if you give more, anyway, Boss Liu has a good impression of you, and you will definitely not be beaten back when you come back." ”

Talking and drinking like this, when Qi Tianxiang and Lu Shanzun went out with all their wine, except for Xiao Li and Xiao Wang, who were eating and waiting outside, they did not see Boss Liu, and they must have rested as Lu Shanzun said.

Sitting in the car home, Qi Tianxiang thought about what Boss Liu had done, and couldn't help but feel a sigh of emotion, both admiration and deep envy.
