Chapter 3 Years Ago

After waiting for about ten minutes, three or four decoration workers slowly climbed upstairs, dressed very sloppily, green camouflage uniforms were black, all stained with white plaster, Tang Yi actually had no prejudice against migrant workers, in his impression, most migrant workers were very simple and belonged to the disadvantaged group, so although he was unhappy, he didn't say anything, just said: "It's coming, the time seems to be a little late." ”

The decorator at the front wore a green hat, his face was dark, his body was very strong, his eyes were rolling on Sister Lan, and he said with a smile: "It's not too late, we just went to the market to pick up materials, boss, you need to know, slow work can produce fine work, you look at it is to pay attention to people, and we can't give you a price for the work we do, right?" ”

Tang Yi listened to his oily tone, and was even more displeased, but he didn't bother to meet them in general, and said; "Open the door, let's go in and discuss the construction period."

The strong man in the green hat took the key to open the door, and after several decorators entered, Sister Lan secretly asked behind Tang Yi: "Secretary Tang, can I not come?" ”

Tang Yiqi said: "What's wrong? ”

Sister Lan said: "Looking at the eyes of those few of them, they are all a little colorful, I am a woman myself......"

Tang Yi couldn't help but laugh: "There are still men who will move your mind and be blind?" Entering the house with a smile, Sister Lan bit her red lip and muttered at his back for a while, in fact, Sister Lan was not afraid of what these men would do to her, but after a few decorators came, Sister Lan smelled the smell of them and was a little disgusted, thinking of getting along with them for more than half a month, and then thinking of the scene of the miasma during the decoration, Sister Lan was just about to live in the new building, and she was worried.

Tang Yi looked at the progress of the decoration of the living room, it seemed that there was no progress compared to a few days ago, the floor and the bathroom had not moved at all, but he knew that the progress of the decoration work was not good-looking to the layman, and he said that if there was no progress, people would refute him in ten sentences or eight sentences, so he would not dwell on this issue, but went straight to the point, and said to the man with the cuckold: "I think so, I'm a little anxious, waiting to live in a new house, let's not settle according to the number of decoration days, you can take a look, how many days can I get it at the earliest, Let's negotiate a price. ”

Tang Yi turned around and smoked as he spoke, several workers laughed and continued, one of the workers said to the little head with a green hat: "Chen San'er, we haven't taken such a good cigarette from any owner, our owner is a good person, since there is an emergency, let's hurry up." ”

The worker named Chen San'er put the Chinese cigarette in front of his nose and sniffed it deeply, and said to Tang Yi with a sneer: "Cheng, since you squeaked, our brothers are a little tired and tired, we must do your job well, and quickly, we just don't sleep and drive you out." ”

Tang Yi said: "Okay, then you say a number of days and set a price." ”

Chen San'er pondered for a long time, and said with a smile: "In this way, in half a month, you give 5,000 yuan, contract labor and materials, and we will guarantee that Malier will help you finish it in half a month." ”

Tang Yi frowned slightly, seeing what this meant, he was treating himself as a son who spent a lot of money, and he didn't bother to say more to them, "What is the phone number of your company, I'll talk to the manager." Tang Yi said as he took out his mobile phone from his handbag.

Chen San'er licked his face and smiled: "It's useless for you to talk to the manager, isn't it still us who works in the end?" The price is negotiable, it's negotiable. His eyes were staring at Tang Yi's mobile phone, and he swallowed his saliva, as if he felt that he had caught a big fish.

In front of Tang Yi, Sister Lan didn't dare to speak, but first, Chen San'er's squinting eyes made her disgusted, and secondly, she was worried that the black-faced gods didn't know how to bargain and suffered their losses.

Hearing that Chen San'er was still there, Sister Lan answered, "You guys are too dark, aren't you?" How can there be this price, I think there will be someone to do it for 2,000 yuan in half a month. ”

Chen San'er heard that she was very ruthless, so she was unwilling, and said in a rough voice: "Big sister, you have fine skin and tender meat, why are you darker than us," several workers laughed, looking at Sister Lan's gaze, they became ambiguous, imagining whether the skin on Sister Lan's body was as white and delicate as her face.

Chen San'er said that he was used to vulgar jokes with his fellow villagers, and he didn't think about this sentence just now, and he regretted it a little after he finished speaking, only blaming the other party for a young man who didn't seem to know anything about the world, although he was rich, he looked easy-going, he didn't have any anger, and he spoke slowly and logically. A handsome little daughter-in-law, who doesn't talk much, looks like an honest woman, Chen San'er speaks a little casually.

Sister Lan's face sank when she heard this, and she opened her mouth and scolded: "You talk to your aunt and grandmother to clean up, and tease your grandmother?" ”

Chen San'er didn't expect this woman to turn her face when she said it, she was stunned, and she didn't really scold the owner, so she only turned her head and muttered in a low voice: "What the hell." ”

Although the voice was low, Tang Yi, who was quite close to him, heard it, Tang Yi turned his head and glared at Sister Lan, and Sister Lan's arrogance immediately dissipated and sneaked to the door.

Tang Yi turned his head to Chen San'er and said, "Forget it, I'll find another decoration company, and I'll settle your wages for you." ”

Chen San smiled and said, "Don't pay the price, the price is negotiable, let's talk about it again." But seeing that Tang Yi had already taken out more than a dozen hundred-yuan bills from his bag and began to count the money, Chen San'er was stunned, he didn't expect this young man to be quite decisive in doing things, and said that he didn't need to have a few of them, and it seemed that there was no discussion at all.

"Hey, I said buddy, this is not in accordance with the rules, you have signed a contract with our decoration company, and you will be responsible for all the consequences if you tear up the contract."

Tang Yi smiled, Chen San'er also knew that he had a good way of using legal weapons to defend his rights and interests. He put the money in his bag again and said with a smile: "Cheng, then I will wait for the lawsuit." ”

Having said that, Tang Yi still took out the contract from his bag and looked through it to see if he had fallen into any trap, and he didn't pay attention to it when he signed the contract, after all, there are not many decoration companies in this era, and the decoration company is quite formal, and the scale is not small.

Rolled his eyes a few times at the contract, but he was stunned, the official seal on the contract is the full name of the decoration company, Liaodong Province Third Construction Co., Ltd. Boya Decoration Branch, it turned out to be a branch under the name of the third building.

Tang Yi shook his head, it seemed that there was no need to fight the lawsuit, put the contract in his bag, and said to Chen San: "Then you can do it, I will communicate with your company about other things." ”

Chen San'er froze for a moment, thinking that he was scaring and scaring this young man, but who knew that the more he talked, the more stiff he became, and he hurriedly said: "That's not possible, your lawsuit with the company is the company's business, and you have to settle the accounts of our brothers." ”

Tang Yi really didn't bother to grind his teeth with them again, frowned and said, "I'll talk to Hou Fugui about the matter, you guys are please." ”

Chen San'er said with a smile: "Look, brother, it's not so bragging, you want to know Mr. Hou and go to our decoration company to sign a contract, and it will be solved with a phone call, I think so......" wanted to change the conversation, and then bargained, but was interrupted by Tang Yi's gesture, Tang Yi waved his hand, and dialed Hou Fugui's number, and it happened that the disaster relief hug also needed to talk to him.

As soon as Hou Fugui heard that it was Tang Yi, he asked anxiously: "Director Tang, how is the case?" Can my building be considered a disaster relief jig? ”

Tang Yi said: "Don't worry, the disaster relief hug is the disaster relief hug, nothing counts, but there are some situations to get your understanding, you are like this, you are free to come to my office tomorrow to talk." ”

Hou Fugui hurriedly agreed.

Tang Yi said again: "There is another thing, Boya Decoration is your subsidiary, right?" Help me decorate my new house, but my friend said that he could help me install it, and his building materials your decoration company didn't have it, you see if you can inform Boya, we shouldn't sign the contract, but don't sue me for tearing up the contract. He laughed as he spoke.

Although Sister Lan was standing by the door, she had been eavesdropping on Tang Yi's words, just waiting to see how Tang Yi punished those unlucky people, she knew Tang Yi's energy, even if she came to the provincial capital, she would not be bullied by a group of migrant workers.

But after listening to Tang Yi's phone call, Sister Lan was stunned, daring to love the black-faced god is really a bodhisattva's heart, and it is clear that she is excusing a few workers on the phone. Think about it, how could the black-faced god have a problem with such a group of people. And why are people so good to their mother and daughter, and they are not soft-hearted? But why don't you look down on yourself? picks his nose and eyes every day, thinking about Sister Lan is very popular.

Tang Yi hung up the phone, looked at his watch again, it was already ten o'clock, sighed, it was so annoying to decorate.

Originally, Hou Fugui promised to withdraw the workers immediately, but who knew that ten minutes later, the manager of Boya Decoration hurriedly came and said to Tang Yi with a smile that Mr. Hou would be there soon, and Chen San'er was dumbfounded.

A few minutes later, Hou Fugui trotted all the way upstairs, and saw Tang Yi shaking hands with a smile on his face, everyone could see who was the master and who was second when the two shook hands, Chen San'er didn't dare to come out of the atmosphere, Mr. Hou was their usual boss who looked up to the mountains, and they couldn't meet easily, usually their favorite thing to talk about was how much money Mr. Hou has, and how many people can rank in the provincial capital, in their hearts, Hou Fugui is a big man in the legend.

Sister Lan was proud at this time, and said in her heart that the black-faced god is the black-faced god, and she is so good everywhere, and she stared at Chen San'er even more proudly, but Chen San'er and the others didn't dare to look at her, that feeling was beautiful.

Hou Fugui asked Tang Yi what building materials he wanted to use for decoration, and said that he also guaranteed that he could get the building materials that Tang Yi's friends could get, and he guaranteed that they were cheap and good.

Tang Yi responded vaguely, unable to stand Hou Fugui's hospitality, so he had to promise that he would do the decoration, Hou Fugui laughed with satisfaction, saying that Tang Yi was a friend and didn't look down on himself.

Tang Yi didn't want to mention the decoration date, and he didn't have to worry about what Hou Fugui was staring at.

Hou Fugui finally smiled and said, "It's past ten o'clock, let's go have lunch." He looked at Sister Lan again and said, "This young lady should be with you too." Tang Yi didn't introduce him, so he didn't ask more.

Tang Yi smiled and refused: "My family can wait for me, my girlfriend's godmother and goddaughter are all at home, one old and one young, do you want them to starve?" ”

Hou Fugui said: "That's not simple, let's take it together." ”

Tang Yi shook his head and said, "Another day." ”

Of course, Hou Fugui could see the advance and retreat, and knew that Tang Yi didn't mean to have lunch with him, so he smiled and said Chengcheng, and patted his chest to ensure how the decoration would satisfy Tang Yi, etc., and then went downstairs accompanied by the manager of the decoration department, and Chen San'er followed a few gray ones.

Tang Yi said to Sister Lan: "It's done, it seems that you don't need to watch the decoration anymore." He frowned again and said: "But Aunt Li is afraid that she will not easily agree to move, you have been with Aunt Li for a long time, you should be able to grasp her thoughts, go back and think of a way to persuade her, if this thing is done, I will invite you to eat and eat Western food." Tang Yi knew that Sister Lan liked to be vassal, so he tempted her by eating Western food, not afraid that she would not have to do things. Sure enough, Sister Lan's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said, "Are you going to Vienna?" "Vienna was the only authentic western restaurant in the provincial capital at that time.

Tang Yi didn't expect Sister Lan to know everything, it seemed that she was paying attention to the introduction of this aspect in TV magazines, so she nodded, but she made up her mind to play tricks, she didn't say the time, when did the little sister come and invite her, it's funny to think about it, why do you like to push the little sister on her head for any headache?

…… The New Year is approaching, and cars loaded with welfare goods have begun to enter and exit the provincial party committee compound, and the oil and rice have been distributed, but Tang Yi is worried about looking at the two big pokes of oil and two bags of 100 catties of rice in the office, he doesn't hate to do manual work, but he is most afraid of trouble, and he thinks about carrying oil and rice upstairs and downstairs with a narrow heart. But thinking about Aunt Li's lack of her own living expenses, this thing really can't be given away, but Aunt Li's one-month pension is on top, and taking it back can also make Aunt Li more relaxed.

There was a knock on the office door, Gao Xiaolan poked her head in, and saw that there was no one else, so she walked in, holding a thick file in her hand.

According to the reaction of several comrades of the Department of Culture, he was very serious about drinking at noon, and there was once a situation where he slept for more than an hour at a meeting presided over by him after being drunk, which had an extremely bad impact. When reporting work, Gao Xiaolan was extremely serious and meticulous.

Tang Yi nodded slightly, but what was even more strange to him was why Zhou Jianguo, the head of the first section of the inspector, was surprisingly low-key, everything was done by Gao Xiaolan, but it seemed that Gao Xiaolan was the chief of the first section of the inspector, even if it was to please Director Gao, he was too much. Gao Xiaolan's eyes were a little straight, thinking that it was all her job, and Tang Yi naturally wouldn't consider it so simple.

Gao Xiaolan asked again: "Director Tang, how do you think this matter should be handled?" ”

Tang Yi flipped through the file, feeling that this Yuan Youcai was really talented, and everything he did was absolutely amazing, in fact, there were not no cadres who drank heavily every day, but when he was in a department-level position, he couldn't get a good relationship, and this little thing was shaken out by his subordinates, which was really unheard of.

According to the procedure, he drafted the handling opinions after the investigation of the dossier handled by the supervision office, and then the leaders of the provincial department reviewed and approved them, but Tang Yike took a lot of thought when writing the handling opinions, he had just come to the provincial party committee, and he was not clear about the interpersonal network of the provincial party committee at all, so it was a little difficult to write down the handling opinions.

According to the usual practice, Tang Yi, who is black-eyed, should take the file to listen to the opinions of the superior supervisor, and then start writing his own handling opinions.

However, Tang Yi pondered for a while, and did not rush to report to Director Gao, but still decided to do official business, and after writing his general opinion, he finally wrote down the handling opinions that should be given to the comrade to circulate criticism.

From Gao Xiaolan's tone, I also know that Director Gao has a bad impression of Yuan Youcai, Director Gao's opinion must be to punish Yuan Youcai, and if Director Gao has any views on severe punishment after his report, it will be even more difficult for him to write this handling opinion, after all, Tang Yi, who has just entered the provincial party committee compound, does not want to get involved in their affairs.

Drove back to the small green building, parked the car at the door of the building, thought about it, and finally dispelled the idea of asking Sister Lan to come down to help carry the rice, and felt a little funny, I seemed to treat Sister Lan as a girl, but think about it, the nanny is not just a girl, and I am more calm in my heart.

As soon as he picked up a bag of rice and was about to go upstairs, he heard the horn of the car behind him, and then someone shouted: "Secretary Tang, it's really you." Tang Yi turned around, but saw two people coming out of Santanari behind him, Lei Hao and Chen Dahe, the two of them had strange eyes, and they probably didn't expect Tang Yi to do this kind of physical work.

Tang Yi said with a smile: "You guys came just in time, there is a bag of rice and two barrels of oil, help me get it together, so that I don't have to run again." ”

So the county magistrate and the director of the public security bureau carried rice on one and two barrels of oil on the other, and followed Tang Yi upstairs.

Aunt Li saw that Tang Yi was a guest, and enthusiastically took out melon seeds and candy to entertain her, but she wondered in her heart, why Xiao Tang's friends in the local area are so old, this child is too old to become a little bit, and the two of them are afraid that they will be bored when they live with the cold surname of the little sister.

Sister Lan is very discerning, and after helping Lei Hao and Chen Dahe make tea, she found an excuse to drag Aunt Li back to her house to talk, so as not to disturb Tang Yi and them to talk about things.

The three of them sat on the sofa around the coffee table, Chen Dahe looked at the furnishings, the small space, and frowned: "The conditions are a bit difficult." ”

Tang Yi sighed, afraid that Aunt Li would hear it, and said with a smile: "It's good, I'm used to being alone, and now I feel pretty good." ”

Lei Hao nodded: "Well, the size of the place you live in is nothing, as long as you feel comfortable." ”

Tang Yi asked, "How are you doing?" ”

Lei Hao smiled: "It's okay, Wang Tao is very happy about the matter of Chen Ju turning positive, but I have some disagreements with him at work, but it's not a big deal, don't worry, I will deal with it." ”

Tang Yien sighed, and said: "It's not good to come to the provincial capital a year ago, people will gossip behind their backs, and there will be no good impression on it." ”

Lei Hao grinned and said, "Don't worry, we are here to do business, and by the way, we have brought you some Yanshan local products." ”

Tang Yi knew that any office matter was all an excuse, otherwise Lei Hao would not have dragged Chen Dahe to come with him, he knew that Chen Dahe was close to him, and he pulled Chen Dahe to further get along with him.

Lei Hao and Chen Dahe went downstairs to move things, they brought white fungus, black fungus, pine nuts, several kinds of wild vegetables and two ginseng, although Tang Yi felt that there were a lot of things, because the white fungus and black fungus were dried, and the two nylon bags were worth a lot in the provincial capital, and the two ginseng seemed to be at least ten years old, but because it was a special product of Yanshan, and it was the intention of the New Year, it was only accepted.

At night, he drank wine with two people in Jubaxian, and Tang Yi peculiarly told Lei Hao to take care of Chen Fangyuan of Wanbao Supermarket at the wine table, and he was no longer in the county party committee, Tang Yi spoke much brighter, Lei Hao patted his chest and promised to complete the task, which caused Tang Yi and Chen Dahe to laugh.

When Tang Yi came back, it was already more than ten o'clock, but he saw that the light was on in the living room, Aunt Li and Sister Lan were not sleeping, the two were picking wild vegetables, and Sister Lan muttered while picking: "I know how to send some rags, I used to eat enough things." ”

Aunt Li also knew her surname, so she just laughed.

As soon as Tang Yi entered the house, Sister Lan closed her mouth.

Tang Yiqi said: "Auntie, what are you doing here?" ”

Aunt Li smiled and said that she was going to dry these wild vegetables tomorrow to save waste.

Tang Yi said with a smile: "This is the vegetable in the cellar, and if it is dried, it will not be eaten, and so are they, what are you doing with this old wild vegetable, let your aunt worry about it, so that you can eat it tomorrow, and give the rest to your neighbors." ”

Aunt Li listened to this reasoning, nodded and agreed, and as soon as Sister Lan heard that she didn't have to work anymore, she became happy, smiled and glanced at Tang Yi, and said in her heart that the black-faced god is not useless.

Tang Yi said again: "Then you can go to the bar, don't you have rheumatism in your legs, and the ginseng soaking wine is the most effective." He also said: "Sister Lan of the white fungus also sent it to the neighbors, this thing, if you eat it all the time, even the lobster will be tired." ”

Aunt Li frowned: "Look, your kid has made an old mistake again, how much do you get for these white fungus fungus, and it's not that you can't let go, how can you just give it away?" ”

Tang Yi was speechless, but it was a very warm feeling to be disciplined.
