Xue Dabao chose to entertain Chen Xing at the Shangri-La Hotel, only the two of them sat in the luxurious big box, and the two were not in a hurry to eat.

"I think back then, when we were still studying, we were young and cold, and now we are all past the year of standing, some people are developed, some people continue to work hard, some people work hard to earn milk powder money, some people are already planning for pension money, some people live a chic life all day long, do not worry about firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, some people have white hair and bald head for their livelihood, look back and think about the four years of college, those years, the days when everyone was stupid together are really happy, and now they have stepped into the society, and they can't make a few sincere friends."

Xue Dabao looked at Chen Xing and said with emotion, among his classmates, perhaps Chen Xing's achievements are the highest, think about when he was in college, Chen Xing guarded his girlfriend Zhao Qingfeng all day long, and the two talked about the library when they fell in love, who would have thought that Chen Xing would have such great achievements?

If you really want to think about it, all of them are unexpected and expected, Chen Xing's academic performance in the class is not to be said, he is a frequent visitor on the first-class scholarship list, and he is a cadre of the school's student union, although he has a hot fight with his girlfriend, but other things are also doing well, he is recognized as a talent, Chen Xing can have this achievement, it seems that it is not a very surprising thing.

"People like us are young and humble, you are the eldest son of the Xue family, and you are not of the same class as us, and you are not afraid to flash your tongue when you say this." Chen Xing shook his head with a smile, he didn't know Xue Dabao's family background when he was in college, but now he knows that the Xue family runs a nationally renowned high-end furniture chain store, and there are branches in major cities, Chen Xingke thinks that Xue Dabao was really pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger when he was in college.

But then again, Xue Dabao was really low-key at that time, and I didn't see him look like a rich son, spending money lavishly, at least Chen Xing hadn't heard of Xue Dabao's how, but Fei Ming, the old man in the family was an official, but he loved to show off, and what he took out was usually a lot of money, and at that time, some people were privately saying that Fei Ming's Lao Tzu was definitely a corrupt official, otherwise where would he get the money for him to squander.

"Chen Xing, don't mention it, when I was in college, my dad said that it was to cultivate my style of hard work, strictly control my economic expenses, and only give me 1,000 yuan a month for living expenses, not a dime more, which made me very hard throughout my college years, deducting the money for smoking, I can only spend seven or eight hundred a month, and I have to eat, you say that I can be chic, it's not like you, they are all destitute elements." Xue Dabao smiled bitterly.

"I said that as far as your family's property is concerned, it will cost more than a billion yuan, why didn't I see you look like a rich man when I was in college, I dare to feel that the financial power was choked." Chen Xing said with a smile, listening to Xue Dabao say this, Chen Xing admired Xue Dabao's father, who had never met before, and he was quite knowledgeable in children's education.

"No way, my dad is that character, what he decides, no one can change it, I am only after graduating from college, I can have a certain amount of economic autonomy and can mobilize some of the family's funds." Xue Dabao smiled, his eyes turned on Chen Xing, Xue Dabao smiled, "Chen Xing, I remember that the last time I heard your news was that you were working in the Political Research Office of the Municipal Party Committee, or Huang Ming said it inadvertently, he said that you have been holding the iron rice bowl for the rest of your life, you have no worries about food and clothing, you will not be rich and expensive, and you will not starve to death, why didn't I pay attention, you were transferred to the capital, and you became the deputy director?" Hey, that's not something that the average person can do. ”

"What does it mean to not pay attention, we haven't seen each other for many years, okay, it's because you, the eldest young master, are too busy to pay attention to people like us who live a hard life." Chen Xing shook his head with a smile, talking to Xue Dabao is just like this, gags, and his mood is very relaxed.

"Chen Xing, what you criticize is that in the years since graduation, there has indeed been less contact." Xue Dabao smiled wryly, if he denied anything, it would be hypocritical, it is a fact that he rarely contacts his classmates, at that time, as soon as he graduated, he was like a dragon returning to the sea, and the days were suddenly chic, Xue Dabao was in contact with a completely different world, his father also regarded him as a real adult, took him in and out of various upper-class occasions, and began to cultivate him, Xue Dabao was like entering another world during that time, and he was in contact with some successful people, classmates in college, In Xue Dabao's eyes, he is a little unqualified, speaking of which, he is arrogant in his heart, so he doesn't have much contact with his classmates.

"By the way, I just had a phone call with Huang Ming a few days ago, and as soon as that kid heard that I was in the capital, he said that he would also come over to play for a few days, and by the way, see if there is any small business that can be invested, this kid is quite able to toss." Xue Dabao said with a smile, he called Huang Ming, or to inquire about Chen Xing, only then did he know that in the past few years without contact with his old classmates, Chen Xing had already come out of the hard days of blind manipulation in the political research room, first became the secretary of the municipal party committee, and then the old leader was transferred to the provincial party committee, Chen Xing also followed to the provincial party committee, and then he was sent to the county for exercise, from the deputy county magistrate all the way to the secretary of the county party committee.

Huang Ming said the same as telling a story, and Xue Dabao was also stunned when he heard it, I have to say that Chen Xing's trajectory really sounds like a fantasy, Xue Dabao really hasn't heard of someone jumping so fast like Chen Xing, and he can really make up a storytelling story and tell it.

However, although Huang Ming told Xue Dabao about Chen Xing, he didn't tell Xue Dabao that Chen Xing's daughter-in-law was the daughter of the Zhang family, the most prominent in the capital, so Xue Dabao didn't know about it, he only said at the beginning that Chen Xing's old leader is now the head of the provincial party committee, and Chen Xing was promoted so quickly because he was appreciated by the other party, and then it was a little strange how Chen Xing stepped directly from the county to the ministry, but Huang Ming said mysteriously that the heavenly opportunity should not be revealed, Xue Dabao thought it was inconvenient to say, I didn't ask any more questions.

At this moment, Xue Dabao and Chen Xing sat face to face, and naturally they didn't ask about it, although they were also curious about Chen Xing's mysterious background, but Huang Ming didn't say anything, Xue Dabao would not ask Chen Xing in person, if it was inconvenient to say something, then he would make everyone embarrassed when he asked like this.

Anyway, for Xue Dabao, he knows that the old classmate in front of him is no longer what it used to be, as long as he sincerely makes friends, coupled with the advantage of the relationship between old classmates, I believe that he can always get Chen Xing's friendship.

Speaking of Huang Ming, Chen Xing also smiled, "Huang Ming's ability to toss is beyond doubt, after graduating from college, he dared to borrow money to do business, along the way, although bumpy, but finally a small achievement, to say that this risk and opportunity do coexist, Huang Ming did not choose to work from 9 to 5 and dared to go out, so he got more than others." ”

No one knows Huang Ming's net worth better than Chen Xing, although the car and house are mortgaged to the bank, but to count assets, Huang Ming is also a master of tens of millions, there is no family relationship, he can have this kind of achievement by himself, Huang Ming is very remarkable.

"Yes, Huang Ming, this kid is much better than me, if I hadn't contacted him a few days ago, I wouldn't have known that he had opened a hotel, and he dared to make a fortune in a muffled voice, compared to me, a person who relies on the shade of his family." Xue Dabao smiled, although he didn't think that he would be worse than Huang Ming if he did it alone, but in front of Chen Xing, Xue Dabao was undoubtedly more willing to show his humble side, and he also knew the relationship between Chen Xing and Huang Ming.

While the two were talking, Xue Dabao also took a trip to kung fu tea, and made a cup for Chen Xing with a smile, Chen Xing looked at the other party's posture, and couldn't help laughing, "I see that you also have a little research on tea?" ”

"Don't, how dare I claim to have a study of tea, our country's tea culture is broad and profound, and I haven't been immersed in it for more than ten or twenty years, who dares to say that I have studied tea a little? I'm just pretending to be a pretend, my dad said how to brew this Longjing tea, I learned a little fur. Xue Dabao smiled and shook his head, "It's ugly in front of you." ”

"I can't see where you are showing ugliness, I'm a layman, I see that you are full of posture, and I have been bluffed by you." Chen Xing responded with a smile, the fragrance of tea floated out, took a sip, and felt that the taste was good, but Chen Xing really didn't know anything about tea, compared to the tea he drank at home, the taste should be better, but Chen Xing wanted to estimate the value of this Longjing tea, Chen Xing really didn't have any concept at all, glanced at Xue Dabao, and said with a smile, "This tea is very expensive." ”

"It's okay, a pound of more than 100,000." Xue Dabao nodded and smiled.

"......" Chen Xing smiled bitterly, didn't know what to say, shook his head and said, "A rich man is a rich man, and any pound of tea is enough for an ordinary person to live for several years." ”

"Different people have different ways of living." Xue Dabao shrugged his shoulders, a pound of tea is more than 100,000 yuan, which is a luxury for ordinary people, but for a family like theirs, it is actually really normal.

"Donating a little of your family's annual tea money to the Hope Project can help many people." Chen Xing said with a smile.

"If you want to donate to charity, our family also does a little, how to say, do some good deeds, as a way to accumulate virtue for yourself, but also to have peace of mind, my dad will also donate millions to charity every year." Xue Dabao nodded.

"Yes." Chen Xing was slightly stunned, and then half-jokingly, "I'm planning to launch a student aid project, it seems that I have to catch you first, and I'm worried about running out of money." ”

"Okay, as long as it is initiated by Chen Xing, then my old classmate will definitely have nothing to say, and when the time comes, you will notify me, and I will definitely make a donation from the first place." Xue Dabao patted his chest very righteously.

"Okay, then I'll remember what you said, and if you release my pigeon at that time, I'll be cheeky and call to ask for money." Chen Xing said with a smile, only old classmates can make this kind of joke.

This meal was eaten until almost 9 o'clock, Xue Dabao and Chen Xing had nothing to say, both of them opened the chatterbox, talked about Tiannan and Haibei, and also talked about the interesting things in college, recalling the youthful years, both of them were full of emotion, there are not a few four years in life, and the memory of that four years is the most worth cherishing.

"Chen Xing, that Zhao Tonghua is a child who hasn't grown up, you don't want to be like him, just get angry." At the end of the meal, Xue Dabao, who was a little drunk, said to Chen Xing.

"Hey, as for me, don't I know him in general, hasn't he been back for a few days?" Chen Xing said with a smile, he knew that someone must have asked Xue Dabao to say this, although Sun Changsheng asked Zhao Tonghua to take him back to the Public Security Bureau that night, but it was just a night, purely to teach that Zhao Tonghua a lesson, don't think that there is a father of the head of the authority who thinks that Lao Tzu is the first in the world, Beijing is big, and some are people who can govern him, Sun Changsheng also wanted to teach that kid a lesson, and deliberately locked up for 24 hours, no one gave face, and made Zhao Gang, the director of the film bureau, angry. It's been a week since this incident, and Chen Xing hasn't taken it to heart.

"It's been a few days since I went back." Xue Dabao responded with a smile, seeing Chen Xing looking at him, Xue Dabao also knew that he couldn't hide Chen Xing's eyes, and said with a smile, "Actually, Fan Dong entrusted me to help me tell the truth, he said that he has been disciplining the kid in his family recently, and for the place that offended you that night, he said that he invited you Haihan, I don't know that Song Zhi's little girl is friends with you, and his son has no choice but to be pulled by Zhao Tonghua." ”

"I think it was his son's idea to stop Zhao Tonghua." Chen Xing scoffed, this Fan Dong is obviously also a two-faced person, Tong Guò Xue Dabao came to push the matter to Zhao Tonghua in front of him, this time, he didn't know how to tie up with the Zhao family father and son, he was engaged in film and television, and it was strange that he dared to offend Zhao Gang, the director of the film bureau.

"Fan Zhiming, this kid is really a bit fucked, instigating others to do it to his classmates, it's really not a thing, I used to think that kid was pretty good." Xue Dabao pursed his lips and said, "Chen Xing, I can't shirk Fan Dong's face, you just treat me as a fart, don't take it to heart." ”

"If I take it to heart, I'll have to slap you in the face first." Chen Xing said with a smile.

"Then fortunately, I didn't say that Fan Dongtuo asked you to come out, I wanted to have a meal with you, saying that I neglected you that night and wanted to make up for it, I see that you are not interested in him, and I promised to help him speak, but I didn't plan to say it, so as not to be bored." Xue Dabao glanced at Chen Xing and said with a smile, although he was red from drinking, his head was still sober.

"It's free to eat with him, and I don't talk more than half a sentence, and my impression of him is average."

After the two finished eating, it was another meal of kung fu tea, Chen Xing finally left the hotel at half past nine, Xue Dabao drank alcohol, couldn't drive, called a driver in the company to come over, and waited for the driver to come over in the hotel, Chen Xing called Chen Zhongwei to drive over to pick him up, left early, he still had something to do.

"Director Chen, I've taken down Zhang Feng's kid, just waiting for you to speak." In the car, Chen Zhongwei smiled and said to Chen Xing, "That kid has a cheap hand, he lost another 3 million at night, and he is about to lose his red eyes, all of them are IOUs, when he wants to leave, I asked people to stop him and ask him to take five million to pay it back first, the millions of loan sharks a few days ago are now more than 10 million, I threatened him that if he doesn't pay it back, he will chop off his hand first." ”

"The thing of usury is really harmful, no wonder there are so many people who can't afford to repay after borrowing usury, and their families are ruined." Chen Xing shook his head, he knew how Chen Zhongwei's usury was cheating people, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he was robbing money, and the interest turned over the principal, rolling down endlessly like a snowball, and it was no wonder that someone could afford it in the end.

"Director Chen, I used to make a small fuss, I didn't dare to do it so big, and since I was cleaned up by you once, I didn't dare to do that anymore, even if I borrowed money, I didn't dare to calculate the interest like that, it was calculated according to the interest of a few cents a month, this time I was helping Director Chen do things for you, so I did it again." Chen Zhongwei said with a flattering smile, in the past half a month, he has won tens of millions from Zhang Feng, if it wasn't for Chen Xing's orders, Chen Zhongwei would have felt that this money was hot.

"I know you're much more honest now." Chen Xing glanced at the other party with a smile, Chen Zhongwei is also a clever person.

When the car arrived at a nightclub, Chen Xing knew that this was Chen Zhongwei's territory, although he was a little disgusted by the noisy environment inside, but if he wanted to do something, he couldn't help but go in.

"Director Chen, where is the room inside, look." walked through a long corridor, and arrived at the two boxes in the innermost part of the nightclub that were not open to the public, Chen Zhongwei pushed open the door of one of them, Zhang Feng was tied to a chair, with his back to the door, and there were several Chen Zhongwei's younger brothers around Zhang Feng, greeting Zhang Feng from time to time.

Seeing that Chen Xing frowned slightly, Chen Zhongwei hurriedly smiled and said, "Director Chen, don't worry, I'll let them act in a measured manner." ”

Chen Xing didn't speak, he didn't want to see this scene appear, if Zhang Feng and Zhang Xin's brothers and sisters really didn't set up a game for him to jump, then he would be very fucked up by doing this, it would be tantamount to beating innocent people, but if there is, if he doesn't give Zhang Feng a little ruthlessness, I'm afraid he won't tell the truth obediently, Chen Xing is not an ordinary headache, he wants to be an official and live an ordinary people's life, why is it so difficult, he doesn't look for trouble, but it is these messy things that take the initiative to find him, otherwise why would he play this trick.
