Gu Enyuan took Lin Zhenhua and his entourage to a small restaurant on the street, and sat down as the host. The owner of the restaurant should have done this kind of reception countless times, and after coming over and biting Gu Enyuan's ear a few times, he began to get busy.

Jiang Manqing and Sun Xiaodong both came with some embarrassment, and as soon as they sat down, they said in a loud voice: "Secretary Gu, let's just have a light meal, don't be too troublesome." ”

Lin Zhenhua said loudly: "Manager Jiang, Xiaodong, you guys are wrong, Secretary Gu said that he wanted to entertain us, so we should be as good as the host." I think that although our Hanshan Township is economically underdeveloped, the enthusiasm of the leaders is not inferior at all. ”

Gu Enyuan began to feel that Lin Zhenhua had something to say, and he didn't know what was wrong, so he could only talk with a smiling face.

Township cadres can basically be regarded as overlords in the township, especially cadres like Gu Enyuan, who are shoulder-to-shoulder by secretaries and township heads, which can be described as the emperor. But the power of this emperor is limited to the township, and in front of the cadres from above, he is just a small sesame official.

Although Hanhua Heavy Industry is an enterprise, the corresponding administrative level also has a deputy department level. Lin Zhenhua, as the vice president of the Standing Committee, has a level equivalent to the right position, far surpassing Gu Enyuan, so he put on a score in front of Gu Enyuan and played tricks, and Gu Enyuan could only listen submissively.

Of course, Lin Zhenhua is not a person who can play tricks, in fact, he will never put on a show, let alone in front of an old cadre in his fifties like Gu Enyuan. But this time, he was really a little annoyed, what Yan Renjun told him made his opinion of Gu Enyuan extremely bad.

"By the way, Secretary Gu, why don't you come and sit together with several other township leaders?" Jiang Manqing asked Gu Enyuan.

Gu Enyuan sighed: "Alas, this is the rule of our township, and when we entertain the leaders from above, we can only have one township cadre to accompany us. ”

"Why is that?" Sun Xiaodong asked curiously.

Gu Enyuan smiled bitterly and didn't explain, just picked up a small aluminum pot just sent by the restaurant owner, poured wine into the bowl in front of everyone, and said enthusiastically while pouring: "Leaders have worked hard, come, taste our water and wine here." ”

The boss began to serve the food to the table, and as soon as the food was served, Lin Zhenhua and the others began to understand the rules that Gu Enyuan said. The dish was served according to Lin Zhenhua's requirements, with a bowl of braised chicken, a bowl of button meat, a fish and a plate of duck, just four kinds of chicken, duck and fish. But the amount of dishes is really insufficient, and there are a total of five big men at this table plus the driver Wang Baohu, and these dishes are barely enough to eat. If there are a few more cadres in the township, I am afraid that there will be an embarrassment of not having enough food to eat.

Still poor, Lin Zhenhua thought secretly in his heart.

"Come on, leaders, I'll give you a bowl first." Gu Enyuan picked up the wine bowl in front of him and began to persuade the wine, "Our wine is very sweet in the mouth, but it has a lot of stamina. We call it the three bowls of Bugang, the one that Wu Song has drunk. Ordinary people, after drinking three bowls, they will definitely get drunk, let's try it. ”

Jiang Manqing and Sun Xiaodong both picked up the bowl, touched it with Gu Enyuan, and then took a big sip. Although Lin Zhenhua had all kinds of resentment towards Gu Enyuan in his heart, he didn't know how to let out this breath. He felt unconvinced by the migrant workers, but there was nothing he could do to change them. Gu Enyuan has always been humble in front of him, and he can't make trouble out of thin air. Seeing Gu Enyuan holding a wine bowl and signaling to him, he could only raise the bowl and take a sip.

As soon as the wine was drunk, everyone began to chat. Lin Zhenhua didn't have much emotion, just tasted the wine slowly and didn't say much. Jiang Manqing is a person with social experience, and he chatted happily with Gu Enyuan, from the economy in the township to the national situation, and then to the social atmosphere. Speaking of things like some cadres eating and taking cards, corruption and degeneration, Gu Enyuan was also full of indignation, which made Lin Zhenhua sneer secretly in his heart.

"Manager Lin, I heard you say yesterday that your recruitment quota can be moved to other places, isn't that so?" When the wine was in full swing, Gu Enyuan seemed to ask Lin Zhenhua unintentionally.

Of course, Lin Zhenhua knew that Gu Enyuan would not be untargeted, maybe he invited them to eat this meal, and this was the purpose. He didn't break it, just nodded and said, "That's right, we have some power over how to allocate places." ”,

"Manager Lin, look at the situation in our township, can you give us a few more places?" Gu Enyuan said in a begging tone.

"On what ground?" Lin Zhenhua said quietly.

Gu Enyuan said: "Manager Lin, you have also seen that the economy of our place is too backward, and the life of farmers is really hard. Can you take care of us here? ”

"Give you a few more places, will there be more benefits in your township?" Lin Zhenhua asked.

Gu Enyuan's face showed some embarrassment: "Manager Lin said that he laughed, our township is mainly for everyone's sake." If these young people can come to you and do things, the wages they earn can support the family. You see......"

"How is the economy in the township, it mainly depends on the cadres, right?" Lin Zhenhua said with a thorn in his words, "If the cadres in the township are dedicated to doing things for the farmers, there will always be a way to get rid of poverty and become rich." If you just want to make money for yourself, then no one can help you. ”

Jiang Manqing heard the smell of gunpowder in Lin Zhenhua's words, and hurriedly reached out and pulled the corner of Lin Zhenhua's clothes, signaling him not to say more. Gu Enyuan also felt a little unusual, but he still stubbornly said: "Manager Lin is right in criticizing. The leaders of our township, uh, mainly me, have limited abilities and don't do a good job. You are a big business, can you look at my old face and give us a few more places? ”

"Manager Lin, I think it's ......" Sun Xiaodong also turned his head to look at Lin Zhenhua, and wanted to plead with Lin Zhenhua. Gu Enyuan is a township cadre in his fifties, but he looks at least ten years older than his actual age. Such an old man said soft words in front of him, Sun Xiaodong really couldn't listen to it.

Lin Zhenhua sneered: "Secretary Gu, it's not impossible for us to recruit a few more people from you." However, you can't just recruit you with this word, right? If we promise to recruit more, what do you say about that? ”

When Gu Enyuan heard this, he suddenly became excited, he stood up and said to Lin Zhenhua: "Manager Lin, you say, what conditions are there, as long as we can do it, I can promise you." ”

Lin Zhenhua wanted to throw out a sentence directly: You should refund the management fee collected from the migrant workers to them. But he wasn't a fool after all, he thought, Gu Enyuan wanted to take a few more people with him, and it was naturally because everyone was able to create these management fees for him. He asked Gu Enyuan to refund the management fee, isn't this a search for skin with the tiger? If everyone quarrels over this matter, it will be boring, and these migrant workers' families are under the management of this township chief, and it is in vain for them to try to fight for their rights.

Alas, this kind of thing is not something you can manage. Thinking of this, Lin Zhenhua pointed to the wine bowl in Gu Enyuan's hand and said, "Secretary Gu, I heard you chatting with Manager Jiang just now, saying that you were very good at drinking when you were young, but is there such a thing?" ”

"Of course, when I was young, I drank six or seven bowls of water and wine like this at a time."

"Alright then, let's gamble on wine. You drink a bowl and I add a quota, how about it? ”

"Kobayashi!" Jiang Manqing really couldn't listen to it anymore. Jiang Manqing knows this kind of wine, and it is usually very good to drink one or two bowls, but if you really want to drink five or six bowls, you have to get drunk. Lin Zhenhua is too much of a bully for Gu Enyuan's army like this. Jiang Manqing is a kind person, how can he watch Lin Zhenhua do this.

"Manager Lin, are you serious?" Gu Enyuan was serious, he looked at Lin Zhenhua with a bowl, waiting for him to make a statement.

When Lin Zhenhua said this, he was just impulsive, wanting to disgust Gu Enyuan. But when Gu Enyuan asked like this, Lin Zhenhua was a little difficult to ride a tiger. Although he is a human being in two lives, he is only a 24-year-old young man now, and he must have some youthful and frivolous problems, where can he eat Gu Enyuan's shouting.

"Secretary Gu, I just want to see if you really think about these peasant children. Let's not count one bowl at a time, there are still three or four bowls in this aluminum pot, if you can drink it all in one go, I will add another 10 places to your township. ”

"Kobayashi! How can you talk like that? Jiang Manqing complained about Lin Zhenhua, and then turned his head to Gu Enyuan and said, "Secretary Gu, don't care, Xiao Lin is a little drunk, he is joking." ”

Without waiting for Jiang Manqing to finish speaking, Gu Enyuan had already copied the aluminum kettle, and drank it to the spout without saying a word.

Sun Xiaodong sat next to Gu Enyuan, and when he saw this scene, he hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him. Gu Enyuan freed up a hand to block Sun Xiaodong, and only cared about pouring water and wine into his stomach. Although Gu Enyuan is old, he looks like he is used to farm work, and he has a lot of strength in his hands, and Sun Xiaodong really can't stop him for a while.

"Secretary Gu! Secretary Gu! When the restaurant owner heard this, he hurriedly rushed over from the back kitchen and reached out to grab the wine jug. But it was too late, Gu Enyuan had already drunk all the remaining half of the jug, he put the jug on the table, looked at Lin Zhenhua with blood-red eyes and said, "Manager Lin, you talk and count, 10!" 10 pcs! ”

Before he could finish speaking, his body shook a little, and he fell backwards. The restaurant owner held him up and shouted hoarsely at Lin Zhenhua and his party: "What are you doing here!" Secretary Gu has stomach bleeding and high blood pressure, drinking like this will kill people! ”

"Ahh Lin Zhenhua was completely dumbfounded, his original intention was just to punish the evil township chief who exploited the migrant workers, and if he really wanted to cause trouble, the matter would be big.

"Ahem! Xiaolin, what are you doing here! Jiang Manqing glared at Lin Zhenhua angrily, and then shouted at Wang Baohu: "Xiao Wang, go and drive, send Secretary Gu to the hospital!" ”
