At the end of the banquet, Qi Tianxiang insisted on sending Yao Bingxin back to the room, and then returned to his room accompanied by Zhou Tong and others.

After sending Zhou Tong and Tao Ran away, Qi Tianxiang instructed Xiao Zhang: "Inform Comrade Lu Hang, let him come over!" ”

Seeing Xiao Zhang take out his mobile phone and prepare to dial, Qi Tianxiang added: "Let him take a bottle of wine and prepare a few snacks." ”

Looking at Xiao Zhang's knowing expression, Qi Tianxiang smiled imperceptibly. On such an occasion, the appointment at this time, and let him prepare wine and food, the meaning of which is easy to make people think about it. This was clearly felt by Qi Tianxiang from Xiao Zhang's eyes, and Lu Hang's feelings were only more intuitive and stronger.

The circle means the relationship, and the relationship also indicates the position in the circle, and the specific manifestation of the relationship is the abnormal time appointment, the abnormal atmosphere conversation, if there are some abnormal media conduction, then the privacy and closeness of the performance, the abnormal relationship can be measured.

In today's vulgar interpersonal communication, such abnormal communication is often hidden, in fact, it shows an unusual relationship and attitude, and the ultimate will be prostitution and gambling together. It seems that it has become a basic way of entrapment and fornication, Qi Tianxiang is reluctant to use these methods so vulgarly, but he also wants to use abnormal methods to show his concern for Lu Hang.

Qi Tianxiang didn't know much about Lu Hang, he only knew that he was transferred from the army to the local government in his early years, worked in the functional departments of the city government for a long time, and changed careers from deputy mayor to work in the discipline inspection commission, and the middle link was not very clear. However, from the intuitive impression, I like this person's straightforwardness and honesty from the bottom of my heart, as well as the arrogance that is faintly visible in his body, and the kind of fortitude and integrity that he used to be a soldier, which is a necessary trait for discipline inspection and supervision work. But it's just like it, and it hasn't risen to the point of trust and dependence, after all, the current position does not allow Qi Tianxiang to deliver trust intuitively at will, and as the economic field is different from the discipline inspection system, Qi Tianxiang is not too willing to stretch out his hand or win people's hearts too long, just want to see more, pay more attention to some people, and reserve some available talents for the future.

This is also the reason why Qi Tianxiang asked Lu Hang to prepare wine and food, other evening conversations and room appointments are all caused by time relationships, not deliberate arrangements, but Qi Tianxiang is willing to let Lu Hang have associations, so as to observe Lu Hang's reaction and concentration.

It didn't take much time for Xiao Zhang to take Lu Hang into the room, and as soon as he entered the door, he didn't have time to shake hands with Qi Tianxiang and greet him, so he and Xiao Zhang started to work, and put the wine and food they brought on the coffee table in front of Qi Tianxiang, and then stood up straight, looked at Qi Tianxiang and smiled, as if asking Qi Tianxiang to test the fruits of his labor.

Qi Tianxiang glanced at Lu Hang gently, and turned his gaze to the wine dishes placed on the coffee table, the so-called appetizers are boiled spiced peanuts, boiled edamame, and a few oranges, the wine is a simple liquor, it is the local liquor of Hehai Province, and it is an ordinary liquor for more than ten yuan a bottle.

Qi Tianxiang looked at the wine and food on the coffee table with interest for a while, raised his head and looked at Lu Hang, there was something strange in his eyes, as if he was questioning Lu Hang, so he used these drinks and dishes to deal with the governor's love, but he didn't say anything, just looked at Lu Hang with a slight smile.

Lu Hang read this question from Qi Tianxiang's expression and gaze, so he looked at Qi Tianxiang with a little embarrassment and said, "I know that you have already eaten, I have already eaten dinner, and I usually don't drink much, so I just got something to your taste, otherwise I will prepare some more?" ”

Qi Tianxiang waved his hand, looked at Lu Hang gently, and said with a slight ridicule: "How can anyone who is a soldier not drink, wine strengthens heroes!" ”

Qi Tianxiang's ridicule made Lu Hang even more embarrassed, and before he could think about it, he said bluntly: "Being a soldier is not afraid of drinking, but being a soldier is more principled, don't drink if you have nothing to do, and don't drink when you have something." ”

Lu Hang's direct words made Qi Tianxiang a little surprised, looking at Lu Hang's slightly red face, he couldn't help laughing, beckoned to Xiao Zhang who was standing aside, and then said gently to Lu Hang: "Whether you drink or not is personal freedom, let Xiao Zhang pour the wine, let's talk while drinking, you can sit casually!" ”

Seeing Xiao Zhang pour the wine into the teacup, Qi Tianxiang picked up the teacup, signaled to Lu Hang, took a small sip of wine, and immediately a spicy overflow in the mouth, and spread down the throat to the esophagus, Qi Tianxiang quietly picked up a few peanuts, slowly peeled off the shell, put the peanuts into his mouth, chewed them with taste, and said slowly: "When Cao Mengde and Liu Bei Qingmei cooked wine and talked about heroes, I am afraid it is rare to have these delicious bars!" It's Kong Yiji who still has fennel beans to drink, but which is rice wine, whether there is a snack or not, it's the same, Kong Yiji wants to reflect the identity and taste of a scholar! ”

Lu Hang also hurriedly picked up the teacup and took a sip of wine under Qi Tianxiang's signal, but he didn't press the wine with peanuts, but took a sip of tea from the teacup, looked at Qi Tianxiang and smiled innocently, although he knew that Qi Tianxiang had obvious banter, he didn't dare to respond to Qi Tianxiang's words rashly, so he could only wait for Qi Tianxiang's next words.

Seeing that Qi Tianxiang and Lu Hang had already started talking, Xiao Zhang exited the room with interest, and after only Qi Tianxiang and Lu Hang were left in the room, Qi Tianxiang did not rush to the point, but looked at the cramped Lu Hang, and said slowly: "It can be seen from your resume that you have been working in the government for some years, and it seems that you are still relatively good at socializing, so it is difficult to get along with yourself in the agency, and the difficulty is not small!" ”

"It's not just that it's difficult, it's just that it's hard to move an inch." Lu Hang knew what Qi Tianxiang was referring to, so he looked at Qi Tianxiang frankly and said: "I am a technical cadre, and I studied engineering management in military academies. ”

Looking at Qi Tianxiang's focused expression, Lu Hang continued: "But the ghost made the gods, and I don't know what the reason is, I was promoted to the director of the Municipal Construction Committee within a few years, and there was no transition, so I was appointed as the deputy mayor in charge of urban construction, planning, environmental protection, and transportation." I didn't know how to communicate before, but then I didn't need to communicate, and it was all arranged by the secretary, but because of my personality, I gave way to Liu Ruwei during the adjustment, and I came to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. First, the deputy secretary presided over the work, and later the province asked for the return of the position and the strengthening of the authority of the discipline inspection commission, became the secretary of the municipal discipline inspection commission, and entered the standing committee of the municipal party committee. ”

As if he was still unfinished, Lu Hang spoke, a look of self-deprecation appeared on his face, and he said slowly: "When I left the city government, it was because I wanted to give Liu Ruwei a place so that he could enter the Standing Committee as the executive deputy mayor, but I joined the Standing Committee a year earlier to let me go." ”

Qi Tianxiang heard the dissatisfaction in Lu Hang's heart, but on Lu Hang's square and awe-inspiring face, he couldn't see any resentment, but was more ridiculed and relieved, so he picked up the teacup and touched the teacup in front of Lu Hang gently, took a sip of wine, looked at Lu Hang thoughtfully and said: "These personal encounters and feelings can be put aside first, now if you are still working in the municipal government, and like Comrade Liu Ruwei, temporarily and part-time in charge of the political stability and economic recovery of Guishui County, what will you do?" Where to start? ”

Knowing that Qi Tianxiang was torturing himself, Lu Hang thought for a while, picked up the teacup and prepared to drink, but under Qi Tianxiang's hand-waving hand and gaze, he put it down again, picked up another cup and drank a cup of tea, and then looked at Qi Tianxiang seriously and said: "The so-called not in his position and not in his politics, these things have really not been seriously thought about, not only did I not think about it carefully, but it is estimated that Comrade Ruwei may not have thought it through." ”

"However, according to the perspective I am standing on now, the stability of cadres in Guishui County is not to add bricks and tiles, but to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle, to rule the chaos and to move the muscles and bones to sweat, which is more practical than simply stabilizing emotions and matching cadres." Lu Hang did not hesitate at all, and frankly put his ideas together, "Instead of allocating cadres and making everyone tremble and take up their new posts, it is better to take advantage of such a moment when everyone is in danger to reform and streamline the county's organs, not necessarily to connect with provincial and municipal departments, and to leave behind those departments that are needed, and resolutely withdraw and merge those units and departments that are not needed or that are temporarily difficult to play a practical role." If there are fewer institutions, there will be fewer people, less ruffles, and higher efficiency, and the key is that there will be less financial pressure. Even if it is difficult for Guishui County's economy to improve significantly in the short term, which is to be expected, the reduction in expenditure can alleviate many practical contradictions, and can also play a stabilizing and buffering role. ”

Lu Hang's words made Qi Tianxiang's eyes light up, he didn't expect Lu Hang to have such a profound consideration, and pointed to the stubborn diseases and problems of institutional reform, so he took a deep look at Lu Hang, cast an approving look at him, didn't say anything, but picked up the mobile phone at hand, dialed Zhou Tong's phone, and said bluntly: "Bring a bottle of wine to my room and talk." ”

After putting down the phone, Qi Tianxiang looked at Lu Hang, and said with a slight smile: "Let Lao Zhou also come over to listen to your thoughts, in addition, it is too hard to drink with you, you don't move the cup for a long time, so that my drinking interest is gone." ”

Seeing a look of disappointment on Lu Hang's face, Qi Tianxiang knew that Lu Hang was faintly disappointed in his heart, so he smiled and said: "Lao Zhou has a lot of alcohol and energy, don't look at the martyrs who have not been a soldier, but they are arrogant and do not let the martyrs who fought on the battlefield." ”

Lu Hang hurriedly adjusted his emotions and followed Qi Tianxiang's words and said: "This is for sure, Secretary General Zhou is naturally admirable. ”

Qi Tianxiang knew that Lu Hang had different hearts, but he didn't want to say too much, just looked at Lu Hang and smiled.
