Beijing, Zhou Shubin's Office of the Public / Security Bureau.

After having dinner with Zheng Yuanchao last night, Zhou Shubin was not calm in his heart, his mind was full of things about promotion, he was excited about this opportunity, and he was afraid that he would not be able to grasp the opportunity, so he didn't sleep well at night, and came to his office early in the morning.

Zhou Shubin stood in front of the office window, looking out the window and smoking, this habit has lasted for many years, maybe after changing offices, there is a possibility of changing.

Zhou Shubin thought about the promotion, the work and tasks had been completed, Zheng Yuanchao asked him not to think too much and work as usual, but how could his heart calm down.

At this time, Zhou Shubin thought of a person, that is, Wang Lei, who invited him to dinner last time, and the other party was the first person to tell him that he would be promoted, so Zhou Shubin also probed Zheng Yuanchao's tone, Zheng Yuanchao didn't know about it at the time.

Thinking of this, Wang Lei's image immediately became taller, according to Zhou Shubin's consideration and analysis, Wang Lei can predict his promotion, there should be two possibilities, the first Wang Lei can really pinch and calculate, the second Wang Lei has someone in the public security system, and this person's position is higher than Zheng Yuanchao, and there are only these two possibilities to explain the current situation.

No matter which possibility it is, Wang Lei is a person with energy, and it is possible to help him get promoted, thinking that Zhou Shubin made up his mind, turned around and walked to the desk, opened the drawer on the right, and there were a lot of business cards in it.

Zhou Shubin rummaged for a long time, and finally found Wang Lei's business card, took out his mobile phone and dialed the other party's number, and after a while, the mobile phone was connected, and Wang Lei's voice sounded.

"I'm Wang Lei."

"Hello Mr. Wang, I'm Zhou Shubin." Zhou Shubin said.

"Zhou. Hello Bureau, is there anything you can do by calling me? Wang Lei asked.

"I called this time to thank you." Zhou Shubin's tone was very polite.

"What do you want to thank me?" Wang Lei asked rhetorically.

"The last time we had dinner, didn't you remind me that there would be opportunities for promotion in the near future? Yesterday I had dinner with a leader, and the other person also mentioned this to me, so I would like to invite you to a meal as a token of appreciation. Zhou Shubin said.

"You're polite, and I understand your kindness, but I have something to do with me now, and I won't return to the capital in a few days." Wang Lei said.

"Is that so?"

Hearing Wang Lei's words, Zhou Shubin's tone was a little lost, and said, "Then when will you come back, when you come back, I will pick you up." ”

When Zhou Shubin's words are said to be this, Wang Lei will naturally not refuse, and Wang Lei may be useful to the other party in the future, and he will not say it too much, and said: "Within a week, when the time comes, I will call you again." ”

"Then it's decided, I won't disturb your work, let's meet and talk." After speaking, Zhou Shubin hung up the phone, he wanted to get Wang Lei's help and increase the possibility of his promotion, but with his identity and status, some words were inconvenient to say in the mobile phone.

"Hoo ......"

Zhou Shubin sighed, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart, if he had believed Wang Lei's words earlier, he would have asked Wang Lei for help earlier, and the chances of promotion would have been greater.

Now that Wang Lei is in a different place, it will take several days to come back, and every day of delay may reduce his chances of promotion, which makes him regret it in his heart.

Regardless of whether Wang Lei is a real feng shui master, or Wang Lei is someone in the public security system, Zhou Shubin believes that the other party can help him, but unfortunately he does not believe the other party.

"Bang."

Thinking of this, Zhou Shubin waved his arm vigorously, smashed the table with a punch, and said: "Damn, now is a critical moment, I can't miss this opportunity, I have to find a way to let Mr. Wang come back early, even if there is more hope for promotion, it is good." ”

……

Luzhou, Fengjiang County.

"Who's calling you, you're busy." Seeing Wang Lei hang up the phone, the big man came up and asked.

"Let's talk as we go." Wang Lei put away his mobile phone, patted the big man on the shoulder, and walked towards the outside of Basho Villa.

"Eh, where are you going, my car is on the right." The big one shouted from behind.

"It's not convenient to drive, so let's go underground." Wang Lei explained.

"It's okay, I sat in the car for a day yesterday, and my butt hurt when I sat there, so it's okay to walk around." The big one followed, put his arm around Wang Lei's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Maybe, you can meet a beautiful woman on the road." ”

"How can there be so many beauties for you to meet, you kid wants to be crazy about beauties." Wang Lei laughed.

Walking on the rocky road in the village, the drizzle falls from the sky, making the road damp, there is only one flat road in the village, and the rest of the paths are rock-paved steps, walking on the road is very much the taste of Jiangnan hometown.

The atmosphere of life in Octagonal Village is very strong, and few people in the village are in a hurry, and most of them greet and greet each other after meeting, without the indifference and fast pace of the metropolis.

Wang Lei likes the atmosphere in the village, and also likes the surrounding scenery, being in this environment, he feels that the whole person is relaxed, has a lot less desire, and enjoys life more, the only thing that feels a little lacking is that Wang Lei is standing next to a big one, if it is replaced by silver snow, it is simply perfect.

Thinking of Bai Yinxue, I am afraid that it will be difficult to get it in a short time, Wang Lei couldn't help but shake his head slightly, and said with emotion: "The road is long, I will go up and down to seek." ”

"What do you want? Why did you suddenly start a commotion? The big man stretched out his long arm and pushed Wang Lei and said.

"You're still young, and you'll understand when you grow up." Wang Lei patted the other party's shoulder and said.

"Cut, pretend, you'll be fine." The big one stuck out his tongue, grimaced, and said, "By the way, do you know the road, where is this going to take me." ”

"To the west, when my master used to live in seclusion, he lived on the mountain west of Octagon Village." Wang Lei said.

"It's so far from the village, it's less than an hour's walk." Wang Lei said.

"Holy, so long?" The big man grew his mouth and said.

"It's time to go green." Wang Lei said.

"Step on the yarn, there are still many months before spring." The big one complained, but he still followed behind Wang Lei and walked towards the mountain on the west side of Bajiao Village.

The two of them walked and chatted at the same time, looking at the mountains, the water, the trees, and the pedestrians, and they didn't feel bored along the way, and there were tourists passing by from time to time around, and they didn't seem deserted.

Near noon, after a long journey, the two finally felt the foot of the mountain on the west side of the village, but looking at the rugged and steep mountain, the big one swallowed his saliva and muttered, "You won't tell me, let's climb the mountain later." ”

"What do you think?" Wang Lei asked rhetorically.

"Damn, my brother is a little tired now, if I climb up, can I still come down." The big one smiled wryly.

"Isn't there a small restaurant over there, let's go over and eat something first, so that we won't be hungry in the mountains." Wang Lei pointed ahead, there was a roadside stall at the foot of the mountain.

"I set up a tent and set up two long tables, which can also be called a snack bar." The big one questioned.

"Don't eat if the shop is small, I'm hungry anyway." Wang Lei put down a sentence and walked straight to the roadside stall.

Wang Lei chose a long table to sit down, and the owner of the roadside stall came over and said with a smile to Wang Lei: "Sir, what do you want to eat?" ”

"Boss, what do you have here?" The big man also did it, staring at the boss standing on the side, this person looked to be in his forties, not tall, very thin, very dark-skinned, but the person was very clean.

"Both, when I see you, you're not locals, you should be here for a tour." The boss smiled, crossed his fingers, and continued: "Don't look at our small shop, we have a lot of specialties here, shortbread, dried tofu, bamboo shoots and rice noodles, bacon, mushroom noodles, spring bean curd, plum wine, ......."

"Yo he, your land is not big, and there are a lot of things." After walking such a long way, the big man was already hungry, swallowed his saliva, and said.

"I tell you, the special snacks of this place, not in the big hotel, just in our roadside snacks, what you want is this taste, eating is this feeling, you are in that luxury hotel, you can eat while looking at the mountains, our snack bar sells this style." The boss said.

"Boss, do you think this will work, let's give us some and let the two of us try it." Wang Lei said.

"No problem, you see, I'll give it to you." The boss put down a sentence and turned to the side to get busy.

It didn't take long for the owner of the snack bar to come back, holding a wooden tray with several palm-sized plates in it, and said, "Two, shortbread, dried tofu, bacon, and plum wine are all ready-made, you eat first, and my wife will give you the following." ”

"Hehe, I'm from this province, I've eaten all of these things, and it's not authentic to taste your thing." The big one was really hungry, so he picked up a shortbread and planted it in his mouth.

"If you taste it, it's going to be delicious." The boss patted his chest, reassuring with confidence, and then turned around and prepared to go to the side.

"Boss, don't be in a hurry, I have something I want to ask you." Wang Lei said.
