In Beijing, the traditional courtyard houses are elegant and deep

On this scorching summer day, there were cicadas on the elm trees in the courtyard

In the capital, which is now full of reinforced concrete cages, to have such an elegant courtyard house, this family must be either rich or expensive

However, in fact, this courtyard house is the residence of Fang Lujian, the second elder of the Fang family

Fang Lujian lived in this courtyard, usually serving flowers and bonsai, and whenever he encountered something proud, he would often move things to his father's side, so that General Fang could appreciate them, and the father and son would learn together

In a hot weather like today, a shade net had already been erected in the yard, and Fang Lujian walked around the yard with his hands behind his back

On a high platform in the courtyard, there is a pot of very plain and natural orchids

Saying that it is plain and natural, in fact, it means that this pot is not professional, the orchid keeper did not raise the essence of the orchid, did not comb, did not give enough fertilizer, and even this pot is so frenzied, it is really a tyrannical thing

In the scorching hot weather, Fang Lujian's face and neck were covered with sweat, and his clothes were soaked

Standing not far from him, two garden workers waited quietly, waiting for his instructions

"Zhu Si, how is this pot of grass? With your eyesight, how much is this thing worth? Fang Lujian pointed to the orchid pot

The worker, known as Zhu Si, was in his forties, with dark skin, strong arm muscles, and wide and rough hands

In fact, Zhu Si is a flower worker, it is said that his ancestors worked in the flower and wood house of the Forbidden City, and his skills have been passed down from generation to generation, and he is especially good at raising orchids

Zhu Si smiled innocently, and said with a mouthful of Beijing films: "Mr. Fang is indeed a good eye, this pearl orchid is extremely rare, it belongs to the Qianyan orchid in the Central Plains, the so-called Qianyan does not refer to the variety, but refers to the growth environment, from the variety point of view, it should be gladiolus."

However, because it has been growing on steep rocks for a long time, it may last for thousands of years, and its variety has undergone a unique mutation, and it has become an extremely rare 'Thousand Rock Orchid'."

Fang Lujian frowned and said, "What? Is it so precious? ”

Zhu Sidao: "Last year, at the Beijing Lan Expo, the price of a thousand rock orchids was hundreds of thousands" He pointed to the orchid basin, "This orchid basin was not served well, now we can be divided into three, there should be three grasses and the value is quite expensive."

Fang Lujian didn't say a word, and circled around the basin with his hands behind his back

As soon as he saw this pot of orchids, he felt that this thing was not ordinary, because most people who love flowers have a natural sensitivity, and this feeling is very subtle, which can only be understood, not spoken

It was for this reason that Fang Lujian called Zhu Si over, and when an expert asked, sure enough, this thing was very extraordinary

"Zhu Si, this grass will be handed over to you to serve, and it will be raised according to your ideas, and if it is raised, the salary will be doubled," Fang Lujian advised

"It's Mr. Fang, I will not let you down" Zhu Sidao, his eyes glowed with surprise, as an orchid farmer, it is very gratifying to be able to raise a good orchid, which is more gratifying than wages

But Fang Lujian didn't care about Zhu Si's expression, he turned around and entered his living room with some concern

Entering the living room, his wife Xu Lian came over to wipe his face with a towel, Fang Lujian wiped his face Xu Lian said:

"I said Lao Fang, don't think about the orchid, I've seen that child, this child is very good, he can be appreciated by the leader at a young age, and now he is doing it, and it is only a matter of time before he is promoted, and he will not lose Wanqi if our daughter follows him in the future."

Xu Lian chattered, she paused and said: "Anyway, I am satisfied with this child, even Xu Ziqing of Chujiang praised Chen Jing and said that this child is amazing."

Fang Lujian smiled and said, "Wife, don't say that the orchid is a foreign grass, the price is at least more than one million, the gift you brought back this time is not light."

"What? Million? Isn't it just a broken pot? Is it really worth that much money? Xu Lian said in surprise

Immediately, a smile appeared on her face, and she said: "Oh, I just said that Xiao Chen, this kid is amazing, he played me a card against Hu, I gave this kid a painting, and he turned around and gave me such a pot of strange grass."

The price of my painting was there, but I was almost in the dark about what this kid was giving, and I almost didn't know what it was worth."

She came over enthusiastically and pulled Fang Lu Jian and said: "I said Lu Jian, I think this kid has a heart, and your little hobby must have been mastered by him, otherwise he would definitely not send orchids over."

Fang Lujian snorted and said, "You, I don't know if you have been poured ** soup, this time you come back and say it every day, it makes my ears calloused"

Xu Lian was stunned, happy, and said, "That's good, what's the matter?" You, it's a duck with a dead mouth and a hard mouth, your son-in-law is a great talent, you picked up him in our Fang family in the future, and together with our Lianjie, he will definitely hold up the lintel."

Fang Lujian said: "Such a good son-in-law, why haven't you seen Wanqi bring it home for so many years?" Don't talk about me, before you went to Chujiang, your attitude was much stronger than me? Isn't it just as resistant? ”

Xu Lian smiled and said, "Okay, I don't resist now, I told Wanqi, no matter what happens during the Chinese New Year this year, I have to let him bring Xiao Chen back to let the old man take a look, and let the uncles and brothers in the family take a look, he and Wanqi are also the eldest people."

Establishing a relationship as soon as possible is beneficial to both of them's careers, especially for Xiao Chen, as a politician, now is the time to solve personal problems."

Fang Lujian didn't say a word, and drank it with a cup of tea

The heat outside was unstoppable, but it was very cool inside, Fang Lujian sat for a while, he got up again and walked to the window to watch the flower workers working outside

Zhu Si was serving the pot of orchids, he had already called a few assistants, everyone was cautious, extremely cautious, and a few people screamed in the yard

Fang Lujian looked at it for a while, then suddenly turned his head to Xu Lian and said:

"Zhu Si told me just now that this pot of orchids can be cultivated in three plants, each of which is a rare and exquisite foreign grass, I was thinking, I will send one of these three grasses to the old man, and the other to the third one, what do you think?"

Xu Lian glanced at him and said: "Look at your beauty, your son-in-law gave you a gift, you can't wait to send it out, I see that you are showing off and saying that I was poured ** soup, you yourself are not much stronger, your mouth is very hard, and you don't know how to love Xiao Chen in your heart."

Fang Lujian coughed embarrassedly, and snorted: "Nonsense......"

He stopped abruptly halfway through his words, and suddenly shouted outside the window: "Oh, be careful, be careful when dividing the plants, be very careful, don't hurt you and so on, I'll come out immediately, Zhu Si, you first let people prepare sterile soil, the kind of soil that must come from Beishan......"

Fang Lujian shouted as he ran over to change his shoes quickly, ignoring the unbearable heat outside, and rushed out again

Xu Lian pursed her mouth behind her back and said, "Look at that lively appearance, Xiao Chen has long taken a fancy to your weakness, and if you send a pot of orchids, you have to be like this, and you will have to pay it back in the future?" ”

……

Chen Jing didn't know that his pot of orchids was so valuable, and he didn't know that because of a pot of orchids, his future father-in-law who was far away in the capital had a great change in his opinion of him

In the past two days, he has been intensively arranging the work in Hengzhou, and is ready to personally lead the working group to Hengzhou on a certain day

The working group is composed of two divisions, the Cadre Supervision Office and the Second Cadre Division, and the Second Cadre Division is led by Deputy Director Luo Chunlin, but the entire working group is in charge of Chen Jing, and Luo Chunlin can arrange the specific work, but in the overall situation, Luo Chunlin must consult Chen Jing, who is the leader of the working group

During this trip to Hengzhou, Chen Jing was ready to fight a protracted war, and the time given by the provincial party committee was three months, and when Chen Jing mobilized the working group internally, he demanded that the set tasks must be completed within one and a half months

If you don't complete the task, you won't go home, and if you don't figure out the situation, you must put all your effort into solving the work and solving it properly

However, everything was ready, but Chen Jing's itinerary was delayed again and again

There is no way, with the expansion of the scope of work in the Cadre Supervision Office, it is difficult for many jobs to operate without Chen Jing, and in terms of personnel relations, some units and individuals below know that Chen Jing is leaving Chucheng, and the things that originally had to be done are piling up

There are also some people looking for relationships, going through the back door, and setting close, and some people in the following cities and counties have entered the provincial capital to give gifts and reports, and there is an endless stream of people of all colors, and Chen Jing is very annoying

In the end, Chen Jing could only order Zhao Dalin to be fully responsible for the work of the current Cadre Supervision Department, except for important and key matters to communicate with him, everything else could be directly signed and decided

In addition, for the guests who came to give gifts from all parties, Chen Jing closed the door to thank the guests, and no one came to see him, and he made up his mind to let people eat the closed door

However, some people's face is difficult to pull down after all

Chen Jing made all the preparations and prepared to go to Hengzhou the next day On the night when Meng Hu of the Lihe Forestry Bureau entered the provincial capital, he had to see Chen Jing, but Chen Jing had no choice, so he arranged to meet Meng Hu in a restaurant outside his home community

As soon as they met, Chen Jing knew that Meng Hu had come for something this time

This time, the public election was sponsored by the Organization Department of Degao City, and the selected cadres will serve in Lihe as members of the county standing committee and deputy county magistrates

Meng Hu is also eyeing this deputy county magistrate, and his ambitions are bursting

In the past two years, Menghugan Forestry Bureau has been red in Lihe for several years, especially in forestry to support economic construction, Menghu has found several ways to get rich through several forestry development projects, and his reputation in Lihe has soared...... To be continued).
