The front foot sent the guests out of the door, and Wu Qiaozhen hurriedly ran to the decorative cabinet with the back foot, carefully took out the white porcelain Guanyin, held it in his hand and observed it carefully. The face of the statue of Guanyin is kind, quiet, and pious. The body lines are extremely plump, and the condensation is like jade, which makes people unbearable to touch. The whole statue from the head of the bun to the body of the clothing lines, no matter from which angle to look at, its turning point, the lines are extremely in place, profound, ingenious, the back of the square Yin script "Lin Xi Zongyin" four-character seal.

"Isn't it just a Guanyin statue, what's so good?" Guo Wending was surprised. A white porcelain statue of Guanyin, not gold and jade, is just an ordinary handicraft in his opinion.

"You know what? No culture! Wu Qiaozhen glanced at Guo Wending, "Take a good look at this bottle of Guanyin, the expression is rich, the depiction is delicate, the lines of the clothes are simple and appropriate, elegant and smooth, or bold, highly generalized, or exquisite and chic, meticulous, this is a rare boutique." ”

"Is it expensive?" Guo Wending suddenly became vigilant. He looked carefully at this bottle of Guanyin, which was indeed very exquisite, but he didn't know much about it. But Wu Qiaozhen is different, she is not only a history teacher at Pengcheng No. 1 Middle School, but also has family roots, her father was the director of Pengcheng Museum before the special period.

"This is a statue of Guanyin of the late Ming Dynasty Dehua white porcelain sculpture master Lin Xizong, which is an antique." Wu Qiaozhen's eyes lit up and said, "I can't say exactly how much, but I know that the artistic value is very high." Their Zhang family is really a wealthy family, and this is the kind of thing they want. As he spoke, he looked at Guo Wending disdainfully and said, "It's also fortunate that you met me, if you are like a bun who doesn't know anything, this thing will be blind." ”

"No, how can we take such a valuable thing? Hurry up and return it to someone. Guo Wending hurriedly said. Anyway, he still owes the Zhang family a favor, even if Li Rui asks him for help, he can't accept such a valuable antique.

"I don't give." Wu Qiaozhen hugged the Guanyin statue tightly and refused to let go, "This thing is very rare for us, but it may not be uncommon for their old Zhang family." You see, Li Rui came today just to let it go. Then Wu Qiaozhen pleaded again: "I like this bottle of Guanyin like me too much, let's stay!" This kind of thing is hard to come by, and it doesn't mean that you can buy it with money. Even if he has something to ask you, you can just help him, besides, he is also a child of the Zhang family, and if you take care of him, it will be good for you. ”

"Even if I want to help him, we can't take anything from him!" Guo Wending said with a frown.

Wu Shuzhen heard Guo Wending's relaxed tone, and hurriedly said: "If we have a chance in the future, let's find a way to repay the favor, so it's decided." As he spoke, he walked to the bedroom with Guanyin in his arms, "This thing has to be kept well, it's terrible to break it when you put it outside." ”

Looking at his wife's back, Guo Wending could only shake his head helplessly. He didn't expect Li Rui to make such a big move, which shows that he really intends to make a difference in his career.

"This person really changes!" Guo Wending sat on the sofa with emotion. This matter is certain to Zhang Xiuxiu, and he remembered Cui Ji'an's attitude towards Li Rui in his mind. The third generation of the Zhang family still has a few outstanding children, perhaps the relationship within the Zhang family is more complicated than on the surface, and the big family usually has such problems......

Things developed as Li Rui had expected, and he received a call from his sister-in-law the next day. For this sister-in-law who has always cared for him silently, Li Rui has always been grateful. I remember that I just set up my own business in my last life, and several important businesses were also introduced by my sister-in-law. Li Rui expressed his attitude to his sister-in-law on the phone, which made her feel very relieved and distressed at the same time, and said a lot of words of encouragement and encouragement.

Li Rui knew that this was done, and he was wondering what position Guo Wending would arrange for him, whether it was the county committee bureau or directly going to the township? However, what he finally received was the admission notice of the youth cadre class of the Municipal Party School.

Li Rui not only did not reject this arrangement, but secretly rejoiced, he was originally a department-level cadre, and he was trained by the party school, and then he would basically be a real person in the county.

Guo Wending was not present at the opening ceremony of the youth cadre class, and Minister Guo, the executive deputy director of the Organization Department, made a speech encouraging everyone to study seriously. The executive deputy minister's speeches were nothing more than official articles, and Li Rui sat down drowsy. Looking around, although the group of people were all sitting upright, their eyes were a little erratic, and the pens and ballpoint pens in their hands seemed to be taking notes seriously. Li Rui glanced at a classmate next to him, this guy was not taking any notes at all, but scribbling and painting at random, as if he was making a masterpiece of postmodern impressionism.

At the end of the executive minister's final speech, he ushered in warm applause, and in the last sentence of the vice minister, "My words are finished, thank you!" "Almost at the same time, everyone was in good spirits.

Most of the young cadres in this class are section-level cadres, and there are only about seven or eight at the deputy department level. After the opening ceremony, the cadres who were familiar with him began to gather in twos and threes to smoke and drink water and chat, and Li Rui was the only one in the training planning committee system, and he did not know any cadres from other districts and counties, except for a few cadres from the municipal organs who looked a little familiar. When he was named earlier, he secretly remembered two cadres from Nanqiao County, one was white and delicate, the deputy secretary of the Youth League County Committee was named Chen Jianghua, and the other was burly and the deputy mayor of Qingshanquan Town was named Cui Yongheng, both of whom were cadres at the deputy section level. Li Rui wanted to come forward to say hello, but when he saw that the two of them had integrated into a small circle as soon as they went out, he had no choice but to give up, anyway, there was an opportunity for two months of study.

At this time, Zhao Wenlong called, "Brother, congratulations!" ”

"What's there to be for?"

"I heard that you went to study in the party school, isn't that a key training object? After coming out, the official will definitely be promoted to the next level, brother, I congratulated in advance, and set up a banquet, and invited my brother to enjoy the light. Zhao Wenlong said with a smile on the phone.

"You're well-informed." Li Rui said with a smile.

"Yesterday, Zhao Ju and Luo came to my place for dinner, and I listened to Luo."

Huazhong City is not far from the Party School of the Municipal Party Committee, Li Rui walked out of the gate of the Party School, and walked all the way through two intersections. Zhao Wenlong didn't invite anyone else, just him and Li Rui, and the wine and food were directly placed in Zhao Wenlong's office.

Baked lobster in butter, steamed grouper, mushrooms in pot sauce, boiled broccoli, not many dishes but exquisite, and a bottle of Wuliangye next to it.

"I have classes in the afternoon, so let's have beer." The two sat down facing each other.

Drinking and eating vegetables, he said a few words, "By the way, what do you plan to do about the land in the textile factory?" Li Rui took the initiative to ask.

Zhao Wenlong's development plan has not been handed over for a long time, and Li Rui is about to leave the industrial department, since the relationship between the two is good now, he feels that it is necessary to care.

Zhao Wenlong shook his head with a wry smile, and said: "The development plan you talked about last time is really very good, this kind of plan is taken up, I don't worry about the approval above at all, Zhao Bureau was still urging me yesterday for this." But I'll tell you the truth, I have more than enough heart and not enough strength, and I don't have enough strength. ”

"Then why don't you find someone to cooperate with and co-develop?" Li Rui was surprised. Real estate development projects require a huge amount of capital, and it is not uncommon for cooperation and joint development to be carried out.

Zhao Wenlong waved his hand and said: "Originally, I was not afraid that I would not find a partner to cooperate, but at the end of last month, the State Council just promulgated 16 articles on macroeconomic regulation and control, the first one is to tighten the monetary base, and now everyone is forced to debt by the bank, who has the money to invest it?" ”

The promulgation of the "National Sixteen Articles" and the bursting of the HaiN real estate bubble caused the entire real estate market to fall into a depression, which is probably one of the reasons why Zhao Wenlong could not find a partner to work with, but he was embarrassed to say it.

"Are you also worried about the risks of this project?" Li Rui asked.

Zhao Wenlong was a little embarrassed, scratched his head and said: "It's false to say that I'm not worried, now that the country has begun macroeconomic regulation and control, I don't know how to change the policy in the future, which is indeed a bit bottomless." However, this is only a very small factor, mainly a financial problem, if someone is willing to invest and cooperate now, my old Zhao must be on it. ”

"Aren't you afraid of risk?" Li Rui looked at him with a smile.

"Afraid! How not to be afraid? But you have to think the other way around, because of the risk, others may not dare to enter the market, and you just enter at this time, once the market recovers, then you can get greater benefits. ”

"Lao Zhao, I think you are very good at market economics." Li Rui said.

"I'm just a big guy, and I didn't study market economics. I'll tell you the truth, I started my business by farming fish. At the beginning, I followed others to raise, and I raised what others raised, but I just couldn't make money, sometimes there was a lot of fish, and the selling price was very low, not to mention the profit, and I had to post money for a year. Then I thought that this was not going to work, so I began to pay attention to the changes in the fish supply in the market. This year, the supply of this fish is large, the price is low, everyone can't make money, and they won't raise it the next year, but I just raise this kind of fish, the supply will drop in the second year, and the price will inevitably go up. So I think about it, no matter what you do, it's pretty much the same as fish farming. You say, don't you? Zhao Wenlong said with a smile.

"Well, you're right. Although the real estate market is affected by macroeconomic control and has a downturn trend, I think the real estate industry is still hot. Food, clothing, housing and transportation are indispensable, living in this piece is real estate, and food and clothing are inseparable from commercial real estate. Land is a non-renewable resource, and the land of the textile mill is a prime plot, so it would be a pity to give it up like that. ”

"Who's to say it isn't? What is lacking now is money. The house price in Pengcheng is less than 2,000, and even if the real estate market is sluggish, it will not fall anywhere. It is estimated that the cost of acquiring land and building is about 1,000, and the profit of a few hundred yuan per square meter can be guaranteed no matter what. Now everyone is competing for these hundreds of dollars a square profit, I weigh the weight myself, if I follow this plan, there will be no competitive advantage at all, and I can only give up if I think about it. Zhao Wenlong sighed.
