At the beginning of September, when the negotiations between the Huanghai side and Huayi Group began, Tang Yi also came to Yanjing to participate in the training of the 49th provincial and ministerial level advanced training class of the Central Party School.

For Huayi Group's official entry into the Yellow Sea, Tang Yi thought about it for a long time, and finally felt that it was still necessary to use the financial resources of Huayi Group to seek development for the Yellow Sea, and at the same time achieve a win-win situation with Huayi Group.

Tang Yi did not deliberately choose to avoid the detailed negotiations with Huayi Group, although he was in Yanjing, he still had to listen to Deng Wenzhi's work report every day, and occasionally communicated with Zhou Wenkai to talk about his opinions and opinions.

There are a total of 53 students in this provincial and ministerial-level advanced training class, many of whom have gray temples, and there are only two students under the age of 45, except for Tang Yi, who is Yu Fangzhou, vice governor of Jiangnan Province, and Yu Fangzhou is 11 years older than Tang Yi.

At the opening ceremony of the advanced study class, members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau, members of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee, and President Mao of the Central Party School made an important speech, urging the students to guard against arrogance and rashness, strive to improve their ability to apply Marxist-Leninist theory in practice, and truly apply theoretical knowledge to their own work.

Also present at the opening ceremony were Bao Heng, member of the Politburo, member of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee, and director of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee.

The study time of the refresher course is 14 weeks, except for the holidays, a total of 72 study days, the first two days of the school is the entrance education, the introduction of the teaching purpose and teaching arrangements of the refresher class, the study and discipline requirements, watch the video of the spring opening ceremony of the Central Party School, watch or self-study "Study Introduction, Group Discussion, etc."

Then the refresher class was divided into class A and class B, Tang Yi and Yu Fangzhou were assigned to class A, and a temporary party branch and class committee were established, the secretary of the party branch and the squad leader of class A were served by Sun Yannong, secretary of the provincial party committee of Qiongnan Province and director of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress.

Tang Yi failed to get a half-official position, and his seniority was the youngest, even if he was elected to the class committee, he would definitely push him down.

Tang Yi is also an old acquaintance of the party school, but the atmosphere of the provincial and ministerial advanced training class is naturally different, and the scholar on the podium is explaining Engels's "Ludwig? Feuerbach and the End of Classical German Philosophy", the classroom window is bright, cool and pleasant, but the old people sitting next to him are full of majesty, Tang Yi also feels that he is gradually blending into it, and a strange emotion grows in his heart.

After class, Tang Yi talked a few words about Engelsian theory with Cheng Miao, Vice Minister of Health beside him, and Yu Fangzhou walked to the desk, shook hands with Cheng Miao with a smile and said hello, "Minister Cheng, sit together at night?" ”

Cheng Miao shook her head with a smile, "Old man, my brain is not good, continue to be my cold window scholar at night, you go, you go." ”

Tang Yi and Yu Fangzhou both laughed: "Minister Cheng is too modest." ”

A few days ago, Yu Fangzhou asked Tang Yi to go out to dinner, but just after the start of school, Tang Yi felt that it was better to eat in the party school guest house, so he postponed it to today's weekend.

When he left the classroom door, Sun Yannong was talking with his secretary in a low voice at the door of the classroom, Tang Yi and Yu Fangzhou both shook hands with him and chatted a few words, and walked away, Yu Fangzhou looked back at Sun Yannong's secretary a few times, and said with a smile: "Secretary Sun has to deal with Qiongnan affairs during his studies, and he is very busy." ”

Tang Yi smiled and didn't squeak.

Dozens of cars were parked in the open space next to the new blue teaching building, and when they saw Tang Yi and Sun Yannong walking down the steps, a black Audi slowly drove over and stopped steadily beside the two.

Most of the non-local cadres in the advanced training class temporarily use the Beijing Office to use the car, and Tang Yi is no exception, this black Audi is the vehicle equipped by the Huanghai Beijing Office, and has always been the special car of Wu Fengjuan, the former director of the Beijing Office, and Li Yuewen, the current director of the Beijing Office, and the driver Xiao Gao is actually no different from the personal driver of the director of the Beijing Office.

After Tang Yi went to the Yellow Sea, the Shijue sports car has been sealed in a villa on the outskirts of the capital, and he did not use it to study at the party school. Second, Tang Yi gradually lost his interest in driving.

Xiao Gao has become Tang Yi's full-time driver in the past few days, although Tang Yi has confessed that he will call him with a car, but Audi is waiting in the parking lot of the party school every day, and at night it is determined that Mayor Tang does not need it, Xiao Gao will drive the car away, also because the Beijing office is a little far away from the party school, and Mayor Tang will use the car temporarily, but I don't know how much time he will have to wait.

The people in the Audi car ran down to help Tang Yi and Yu Fangzhou pull the car door, Tang Yi found out that it was not Xiao Gao who was driving today, but Li Yuewen, director of the Beijing Office, Li Yuewen was the original deputy director of the Beijing Office, and he should have a good relationship with Wu Fengjuan, because after Wu Fengjuan was transferred to the director of the reception office, he recommended him, Li Yuewen is in his early forties, wearing glasses, this position is one thing, personal image is also very important, first of all, the first impression should give people a good impression, Li Yuewen is undoubtedly such a person, smiling and pulling the car door," Mayor Tang, Governor Yu, please get on the bus. ”

Tang Yi called Xiao Gao and said that he would use the car tonight, and mentioned Yu Fangzhou, thinking that Li Yuewen had received Xiao Gao's report.

Tang Yi and Yu Fangzhou got into the car, Li Yuewen trotted into the driver's seat, turned around and smiled while ignition: "It's the weekend, I heard that Mayor Tang is not going back to the Yellow Sea, I originally wanted to ask Mayor Tang to work hard again, go to the Beijing Office to guide our work, and deal with a working meal by the way, but I didn't expect the mayor and Governor Yu to have something to discuss. ”

Tang Yi smiled: "You should take a look at the comrades, tomorrow." ”

Li Yuewen nodded hurriedly.

Tang Yi and Yu Fangzhou came to a Quanjude branch near the party school, Li Yuewen understood the habits of these high-ranking officials, and liked to eat some comfortable home-cooked food, Tang Yi said that he was not surprised when he came to Quanjude. When Tang Yi and Yu Fangzhou asked him to go up and eat together, Li Yuewen hurriedly said that he was in a bit of a hurry, and he had to do it first, and he would drive to pick them up later. When Tang Yi and Yu Fangzhou went upstairs, he parked the car in front of the hotel next to him, went in to make do with it, and then ran out and sat back in the Audi car and continued to wait for the two leaders.

Quanjude roast duck, although sweet, but if you eat too much, you will get greasy, Tang Yi and Yu Fangzhou only need half a roast duck, and they also asked for a few plates of side dishes such as hot and sour melon strips, as for hot dishes such as three treasures and three treasures, Tang Yi doesn't like it very much, and feels too greasy.

Yu Fangzhou doesn't talk much, but he often has some eyes on the political and economic situation in Jiangnan, Tang Yi just listened silently and didn't talk much, Yu Fangzhou is also a rising political star in Jiangnan, and among the Tang forces in Jiangnan, there are not a few people who push him to enter the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee. He is also a potential competitor of Song Changguo, member of the Standing Committee of the Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee and secretary of the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee, and one of the key objects of Liang Yu, Secretary of the Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee.

And if he can get his own support, in the competition with Song Changguo, Yu Fangzhou will add a heavyweight weight.

Tang Yi understood this very well, and he was also silently observing Yu Fangzhou, not only observing his ability, but also hoping to observe his opinion of himself, and wanted to know through him how he saw himself in the eyes of the new forces of the Tang family who had not been in contact with him.

But it is obvious that in the somewhat speculative conversation between the two, Yu Fangzhou and Tang Yi are deliberately concealing their true thoughts. But fortunately, it is said that Fang Chang is long.

Yu Fangzhou sent back to the party school guest house, but Tang Yi proposed to go to the Huanghai Beijing Office to have a look, Li Yuewen hurriedly called to inform the staff of the Beijing Office, Tang Yi smiled: "Don't be so troublesome, I just take a look." ”

The Yellow Sea Beijing Office is outside the Nanping Gate, an eight-story building, there is a restaurant on the first floor, which is open to the public, there are Yellow Sea specialties, especially seafood, many of which are Yellow Sea specialties, which are difficult to eat elsewhere, but the price is expensive, there are not many customers, and the main purpose of the restaurant is to entertain Beijing officials and receive officials from the Yellow Sea to Beijing.

Accompanied by Li Yuewen and the manager of the restaurant, Tang Yi walked around and went upstairs to visit the office conditions of the Beijing Office. However, there are many things that cannot be rushed.

After visiting the Beijing Office, Tang Yi declined Li Yuewen's suggestion to drive and took a taxi to visit his grandfather in Zhongshan Houjie Hutong.

……

On Saturday, Tang Xin proposed to go to Miaoshan Villa to play, Tang Yi readily agreed, Tang Xin called He Lei and He Sen, and said to Tang Yi: "Brother, I'll pick up someone, we'll see you later." Tang Yi's heart moved, nodded, and didn't say anything.

Over the years, Tang Yi's properties are almost all over the country, in the first-tier cities, basically all the villas have been purchased, all of which are Qi Jie's masterpieces, and the villas in some major cities have been renovated earlier and hired servants to manage them, and the villas in the capital are privately built, with Tang Yi's name, and two housekeeping workers have been hired to take care of them 24 hours a day, Xiao Jinhua returned to China and occasionally lived here.

The villa is located in the north side of the mountain in the eastern foot of the north of the capital in the Miaoshan Park, surrounded by green mountains on three sides, the building imitates the architecture and garden style of the Summer Palace, and it took three years. Covering an area of more than 1,000 square meters, it is antique and antique, and the park scenery is integrated. And who the owner of this mysterious villa is often the talk of the park visitors.

Although Tang Yi has not been here a few times, because he has a pass, and the park leaders and the director of the security department of the management center have seen Tang Yi a few times, and the security guards in the security booth leading to the villa scenic spot and the management center area also remember Tang Yi.

Every time he comes to the villa, Tang Yi will be amazed, push open the antique mahogany door, the exquisite small lake comes into view, and the four seasons of flowers and trees such as begonia, elm leaf plum, and evergreen ivy are planted in front of the house; The stone bridge in the courtyard, flowing water, fountain waterfall, cross the bridge and climb the steps is a delicate and clear antique corner pavilion. The corner pavilion is surrounded by roses, lush and green, looking at the wall, the view is really pleasing to the eye.

The structure of the cornices and beams at the corners of the house adopts the ancient architectural style, and the blue bricks and green tiles are in harmony with the scenery of the wonderful mountain. The ground floor of the villa is a garage, boiler room and maid's room. The domestic worker lives in the maid's room and only goes upstairs when he cleans it every day.

Juanzi, a housekeeping worker, held a watering can, squatted in the courtyard to water the flowers, and was stunned when she saw Tang Yi coming in, only to recognize him, and hurriedly stood up and greeted him in a restrained manner.

Tang Yi smiled and nodded, "My sister and younger brother will come, if the security guard calls, you can pick it up." ”

Juanzi hurriedly said: "I'll go to the security booth and wait for them." Tang Yi said no, but she trotted out.

Tang Yi did not go upstairs, but sat on the stone bench of the Linglong Pavilion, admiring the small bridge and flowing water, the waterfall and the green vines. In fact, Tang Yi was not in favor of building a villa in Miaoshan, but he also hoped that his grandfather could have a beautiful environment to live in his life, after all, the courtyard was too old and too heavy, but when the villa was built, his grandfather refused to move over, and he could only persuade slowly.

Tang Xin was the first to arrive, and she was followed by a very sunny young man, wearing a sportswear, Tang Yi frowned, Tang Xin can bring here, I want to know the relationship between the two, the first time I met my parents, how could I dress so casually?

The young man followed behind Tang Xin, looking at the natural scenery in the courtyard in surprise, as if he had come to the simple and luxurious back garden of the ancient emperor's house on TV.

Tang Xin saw Tang Yi's expression, and secretly complained to Zhang Feng and asked him to change into solemn clothes, but he just refused.

Zhang Feng is the new editor of the Times, and Tang Xin has been in love for a while, but he always feels that the relationship between the two is strange. complained to Tang Xin, Tang Xin said that he had to get the consent of his family before he could officially date, although Zhang Feng was a little depressed, love is passionate, how can he come step by step, it is too unemotional, but he likes Tang Xin's conservatism, now such girls are rare, I have been asking Tang Xin, when can I take him to meet his parents, Tang Xin has always asked him to wait, saying that he must find a suitable opportunity, otherwise the matter of the two of them will definitely blow, although the newspaper is rumored that Tang Xin is not small, but Zhang Feng's family background is also good, 's mother is a cadre with real power, but he often makes fun of Tang Xin, saying that you think it's the West Chamber, I'm a poor showman? Isn't it unsightly? Tang Xin just smiled and didn't say anything.

Zhang Feng never thought that Tang Xin would bring him to meet the "third brother" who was said to be a small half-master, and would bring him to the private villa in Miaoshan, which he had only seen from afar before, and had guessed which high-ranking official was the private residence of the wealthy, and he didn't want it to be Tang Xin's family.

Looking at Tang Xin, Tang Yi sighed in his heart, no wonder he didn't like it on several blind dates, it turned out that he had a crush, this is difficult, the second uncle expects a lot from her, and he will never agree to marry her to an ordinary family, looking at Tang Xin's cautious appearance, he also knows that this boy has an ordinary background.
