Ma Buping and Chen Jing stayed at the Riverside Hotel not far from the Degao Municipal Party Committee.

For a whole day, Ma Buping completely disappeared without a trace, and Chen Jing stayed alone in the hotel and waited boringly.

In the evening, the driver knocked on Chen Jing's door and told Chen Jing that Ma County had let Chen Jing pass through Degao Wuling Restaurant.

Chen Jing and Xiao Fang went straight to Wuling Restaurant, in the VIP room on the third floor of Wuling Restaurant, Ma Buping was inside, in addition to Ma Buping, there were two other people.

As soon as Ma Buping saw Chen Jing, he beckoned and said to the other two: "His name is Chen Jing, you may not be familiar with him, but his fame is not small, he is known as a talented man of Chujiang, and he is a good pen!" ”

Ma Buping is in very good spirits, and the state in the car is completely different, the three of them have eaten and drank, the dishes have been cleaned up, and only the fruit plate is left on the table.

Ma Buping drank wine, he pointed to the middle-aged man in uniform next to him and said, "This is Director Hu Dihu of the Municipal Bureau of the Public Security Bureau!" He looked at the handsome man with glasses on his right, "This is Man Yanbo, deputy secretary general of the municipal party committee!" ”

Chen Jing hurriedly bowed to the two of them and said, "Hu Ju is good, Secretary General Man is good!" ”

Hu Di was born very dark, a pair of eyebrows were particularly thick, he smiled at Chen Jing, and said: "I'm a big boss, but I don't know how to play with a pen, you talented people have to greet the secretary general, he is a place to accommodate talents!" ”

Deputy Secretary-General Man's image is very good, with a white face and a slight belly, looking very stable and friendly.

After Hu Di finished speaking, he shook his head with a smile, for a long time, he looked at Chen Jing with his eyes, and said: "I know that you are a cadre from the provincial capital, and the provincial organs recruit elites, no wonder your Ma County treats you as a treasure, we have a meal, and he has to show you off!"

Director Hu is not all right, we can't accommodate talented people, my Chinese civilization of 5,000 years, how many people can really be called talents?

Besides, talented people can't do the work of a secretary, those talented people, all of them are romantic and proud, and let them write the leader's speech, so what's the deal? ”

Hu Di and Ma Bu laughed evenly, Man Yanbo himself laughed, and Chen Jing had a faint smile on the side, and his expression did not change much!

"Old Ma, I see that you are so embarrassed, I will take this opportunity to test Xiao Chen today, do you dare to let me take the test?" Man Yanbo walked flat on the horse. Ma Buping frowned and waved his hand: "What do I dare to do?" I'm still afraid of your exam? Chen Jing, the leaders of the municipal party committee want to test you, you can't give me a sloppy eye! ”

Chen Jing said modestly: "Secretary General Man is very knowledgeable, but I can't do it......

Man Yanbo shook his head again and again, and said: "I don't test people who are not those who are good, and I don't test you for playing with a pen, I will test you a question, do you know what your Ma County asked you to come over?" I'll give you an answer to this question, and I'll give you a minute to think about it! ”

Chen Jing was stunned, he really didn't expect Man Yanbo to ask this question, where is this exam? It's clearly a joke!

But the joke of the deputy secretary general of the municipal party committee, can it be a joke?

Chen Jing pondered for a moment, his eyes looked at Director Hu, and Hu Di poked the fruit Gaba Gaba with a toothpick and ate it with relish.

He hurriedly said: "Several leaders have just finished eating, there should be arrangements next, Ma County called me over, it must have something to do with the next arrangements!" ”

Hu Di put down the toothpick, slapped the table, and said, "This is simple!" He shouted at Man Yanbo: "Lao Man, a few of us don't have to hide it, we haven't seen each other for a long time, it's more acute to play cards, as soon as Xiao Chen comes, the opponents are all together, what are you waiting for?" ”

Man Yanbo grinned and said, "Just you old beard is in a hurry!" I see you've been drinking too much oil lately, and you're in a hurry to pour us all a little, right? ”

"It's not certain who loses and who wins! Besides, if we drink a lot of oil, where can we compare to the old horse who holds a bull's ear? We have to see the real thing at the table if we win or lose! Hu Di is unforgiving.

"See the real chapter, see the real chapter, let's go immediately!" Man Yanbo stood up and said, he looked at Chen Jing with his eyes, and patted Chen Jing on the shoulder: "You are really a seedling of a secretary, you have been a secretary for Lao Ma, and you will have to go to the city if you have the opportunity in the future!" ”

Chen Jing's lips twitched and he was about to speak, Hu Di came up and said: "Yes, you can talk about the promotion and fortune another day, don't say that it is blocking my financial path today!" ”

Ma Buping hurriedly said: "Okay, I said I want to leave, can't you wait for a while?" Your temperament is as impatient as it was back then, no wonder you can't be promoted! ”

Next to Wuling Restaurant is the International Hotel, and the four of them went straight to the International Hotel Suite, where everything was ready, Chen Jing noticed that Man Yanbo was always in the front, so he guessed that all this was prepared by Man Yanbo.

The three people in front, Man Yanbo, as the deputy secretary general of the municipal party committee, should have the greatest rights. Although Ma Buping is the number one leader of the county-level government, the number one leader of the government is a little worse than the secretary of the county party committee, and he should not be as good as Man Yanbo.

And Hu Di is the deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and the administrative level may be the main department or deputy department, and the Public Security Bureau is a hot yamen, so I don't know how much power Hu Di has, but judging from the momentum he showed, he should be quite powerful.

Judging from the words of the three people, the three of them have a good relationship and should be people who often get together.

Chen Jing knows very well that Ma Buping's relationship in Degao may be showing at all levels, and today Ma Buping is not shy about him, which may also indicate that Ma Buping has included Chen Jing in his inner circle.

Entering the room, Ma Buping proposed to go to the bathroom, he walked a few steps and beckoned to Chen Jing, Chen Jing hurriedly leaned over, Ma Buping said: "Have cash on you?" ”

Chen Jing nodded, and took out a wad of money wrapped in newspaper from his pocket.

Ma Buping nodded, Chen Jing was about to take it out, but Ma Buping waved his hand and went into the bathroom by himself!

When Ma Buping came out, Hu Di was already sitting on the mahjong table and shouted: "Come and sit!" Xiao Chen, we sit opposite home. Lao Man and Lao Ma are at home! ”

As long as Chen Jing sat down, Ma Buping smiled and said, "How are you going to play today?" What yards to play? ”

"Let's play two hundred, three hundred! No matter how small it is, it's boring! Hu Di said.

Chen Jing frowned secretly in his heart, he suddenly thought of Tan Qiulin's gambling, the so-called gambler he caught was nothing more than playing ten or twenty yuan. Now the deputy director of the city bureau is clamoring to play mahjong for 200 or 300, who is the real gambler?

Fortunately, Chen Jing is not a pedantic person after all, he didn't show the slightest expression on his face, but said: "Playing mahjong, the leaders have to be merciful, my card skills are very bad!" ”

Man Yanbo smiled and said, "As long as the brand is good!" We're looking at the cards. ”

The four of them chatted, and the game began, with four people playing cards, and two service staff.

At first, it was a woman, but she was in her 30s, and it looked like she should work in a hotel. After playing a few games, another woman came in, dressed fashionably, carrying a small white leather bag, her age was not clear, and her appearance was very fresh.

"Xiao Huang is here?" Hu Di saw her and grinned: "Secretary General Man is very energetic today, and he will beat us down at the beginning!" ”

The woman was amused and said: "If a hero doesn't win the first three sets, Hu Ju wants to avoid this limelight!" He said that he lost badly, but what he planned in his heart was to stage a good show of losing first and then winning! ”

As soon as the woman spoke, Hu Di and Ma Buping laughed, and Man Yanbo was also funny, and said to the woman: "Brew me a cup of coffee!" I'll let you come after one more lap. ”

The woman put down her satchel and found the coffee very skillfully, he only made a cup for Man Yanbo, and didn't ask anyone else if they wanted it.

Chen Jing casually glanced at this woman, and he suddenly thought of a person, isn't Huang Ling, a beautiful reporter from the city TV station who is responsible for running the party and government, this woman? Chen Jing knew Huang Ling because the head of the personnel section of Degao Daily was Huang Ling's brother Huang Ping.

At that time, Chen Jing's money was given to Huang Ping, and Huang Ping patted his chest and said that he could get things done, but later Chen Jing's transfer was still in vain.

Chen Jing always wanted to find Huang Ping, but after careful consideration, he gave up that idea, he knew very well that he was mixed in the system, and some people might not be able to offend, and Huang Ping's brothers and sisters were among the people who could not be offended.

Chen Jing's money was not given away in vain after all, although the transfer was not successful, but the relationship between Chen Jing and JCDecaux Newspaper has always been very good, as long as his manuscript is sent out, the newspaper generally adopts it, which may be the only comfort Chen Jing gets!

Huang Ling's name Chen Jing has heard of it, and he is very famous in the circle, and when I see him today, it turns out that his background is in Secretary General Man.

Huang Ling sat behind Secretary General Man and watched the cards, her eyes were always focused on the cards, and she didn't look at the other people in the room.

"Huh!" Man Man Yanbo said suddenly, Chen Jing sighed, his cannon was sent by Chen Jing.

Man Yanbo laughed and said, "Xiao Chen, you have to calm down when you play cards!" It's a mental consideration! He pushed the card away, stood up and said to Huang Ling behind him: "I see that you have hooks in your eyes, or you come!" ”

Huang Ling did not shirk, sat on the right seat and said: "Ma County, Hu Bureau!" She glanced at Chen Jing, "And this handsome guy!" Playing cards must know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, you are all gentlemen, you can't be cruel to a weak woman on me! ”
