For two days in a row, Lin Qiangsheng went to the old hotel of Modern to find Leon and his party were all in vain. On the day they came, they were first invited by the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee to pick up the wind and wash the dust, the next day they were invited to a banquet by people from the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, and on the third day they were invited to the United Front Work Department.

Lin Qiangsheng is really a little crazy, this food invitation wind is really everywhere, all the time!

On this day, he came to the hotel early, and came at more than 6 o'clock to see which official got up earlier than him!

The waiter in Modern was already familiar with this guy, driving a red SUV, and it was difficult not to attract attention.

Lin Qiangsheng said hello and went upstairs. In this era, he was able to drive a car, and it was this kind of benefit that the waiters of these state-run hotels did not dare to stop him. If he had come on a bicycle, the attendants of the big battalions might not even let him in.

When he arrived at the room, Lin Qiangsheng knocked on the door and shouted loudly in English: "Leon? Open the door! ”

"Ping Pong" kept knocking, and a waiter ran up and stopped him, if it weren't for Lin Qiangsheng's foreign language, he would have really driven him away.

The door clicked open, and Leon had two panda eyes, a drunken face, and his hair was messy. He saw clearly that it was Lin Qiangsheng in a daze, and suddenly grabbed Lin Qiangsheng's shoulder excitedly and shouted, "Lin, you are here!" If you don't come, we'll die at the wine table!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng entered the door and waited for the waiter to give him an apologetic look, and then closed the door. He turned around and walked into the house and asked Leon, "What's the matter?" I haven't found you in the past two days, are you drinking every day? ”

Leon scolded repeatedly, slammed his body on the bed, covered his head and shouted: "Lin, I really regret coming to China!" I'm breaking down, I'm having a terrible headache. You officials here are too good at eating and drinking! It's as if everyone hasn't eaten in a long time! ”

Lin Qiangsheng gritted his teeth and smiled, and said, "You have to know how to refuse, if they want you to go to any banquet, you can say no to them loudly!" ”

Leon shook his head and said in fear, "It's useless! The enthusiasm and persistence of your officials is terrible! It's horrible! ”

Lin Qiangsheng took out a small box of cooling oil from his pocket, opened the lid of the box and let Leon wipe a little on his temples.

Leon looked at the locket in surprise and asked, "What is this?" ”

"It's amazing, it can cure headaches, and maybe make you feel better!" Lin Qiangsheng said.

Leon breathed a sigh of relief, felt it carefully, nodded and said, "Sure enough, I feel better!" Perhaps he was too tired, and after a while Leon fell asleep.

Lin Qiangsheng shook his head and sat on the sofa to rest for a while. He woke up early this morning, and he was still a little sleepy.

At seven o'clock, there was a knock on the door, Lin Qiangsheng opened the door, and a person in his 30s who looked like a cadre was standing at the door.

The cadre was stunned for a moment when he saw Lin Qiangsheng and asked, "Excuse me, is this the room booked by Peugeot's visiting WÈN personnel?" ”

Lin Qiangsheng nodded and said, "Yes!" Who are you? ”

The cadre sighed, and then said with a smile: "You are Mr. Leon's translator, right?" I am from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee of H Province, and our Organization Department would like to invite Mr. Lyon and the other two to a reception banquet! You can translate it for Mr. Leon. ”

Lin Qiangsheng shook his head and said, "Mr. Leon is still sleeping now, let's talk about it when he wakes up!" ”

The middle-aged man was surprised for a moment, and then said with a smile: "You woke him up!" Let's just say that we have prepared a sumptuous banquet for the French side, and you should invite Monsieur Lyon to come out to me, and I will talk to him! ”

Lin Qiangsheng was even more surprised, and said, "Isn't it okay to wake up the guests like this?" ”

The cadre angrily accused Lin Qiangsheng and said: "I said little comrade, don't delay the work of our organization department!" You give a briefing, what's wrong? ”

Lin Qiangsheng tilted his head, looked at the cadres in front of him, and said, "The foreign guests said that they are tired, and they will not receive visitors today!" ”

With a "bang", Lin Qiangsheng closed the door directly.

"Oops!" The cadre shouted to retreat, and the door almost hit his nose, so frightened that he hurriedly retreated and almost fell.

The cadre scolded at the door: "The dog takes the mouse and meddles in his business!" Hmph, the dog fights the human power! Traitors! Quisling! ”

After scolding, he wandered around the door for a while, and muttered in a low voice: "What should I do!" I can't eat, and my leaders and colleagues still have to scold me to death? Finally, I had a chance to eat and drink! Everyone is hungry this morning, and you can't be scolded to death when you go back? Oops, oops! He knocked on the door again, but when it never opened, he finally stomped his foot and trotted out of the hotel.

Probably really tired, such a big movement, Leon hasn't woken up yet. It was almost eight o'clock when there was another knock on the door. Lin Qiangsheng went to take a look, and he was still the cadre in the morning.

Lin Qiangsheng said secretly: "This guy is really persistent!" A meal, it's that important?! ”

Lin Qiangsheng smiled silently, he didn't open the door, how much love, how much. He just wants to let these people in China change their frizzy temperament!

The cadres who had no choice but to go back and move the rescuers. At about nine o'clock, a man who looked like an official came to the door of the guest room and knocked on it again.

Lin Qiangsheng opened the door, the official looked like he was about fifty or sixty years old, and asked with a smile: "Excuse me, this is the guest room where Peugeot lived, right?" ”

Lin Qiangsheng nodded and said, "Yes!" ”

The official said with a smile: "I am Zhou Hua from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, can I trouble the little comrade to notify the foreign guests?" ”

This person introduced himself without a suffix, and he was probably a minister-level figure.

Lin Qiangsheng nodded and said, "Please wait!" ”

The cadres behind Zhou Hua saw Lin Qiangsheng happily turn around and go back to the guest room, and secretly pursed his lips.

Lin Qiangsheng called Leon up, Leon scolded non-stop, he walked to the door and shouted: "No! I'm not going anywhere today! Just sleep! Got it? ”

As he spoke, Leon waved his hand vigorously, as if to drive everyone away.

Zhou Hua looked at the cadres behind him, and the middle-aged cadres hurriedly explained to Leon, which roughly meant that the Organization Department had arranged a reception banquet for Leon and a few people, so that they must participate.

Zhou Hua looked at Lin Qiangsheng with a smile and said, "Young man, please translate it to this French gentleman!" In addition, I am Zhou Hua, director of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, please introduce me. ”

Lin Qiangsheng nodded and translated to Leon.

Leon shook his head again and again and said, "No! No! We are so tired and need a break! Rest! You can't do that! ”

Lin Qiangsheng stood next to him, pretending to be innocent, but in fact, his psychology was really happy.

After Zhou Hua heard Lin Qiangsheng's translation, his face immediately became embarrassed, and he personally persuaded a few words, but Leon was always uncompromising, but he didn't want to eat this meal.

At this time, Zhou Hua looked at Lin Qiangsheng and persuaded: "Little comrade, you can help persuade this foreign guest!" Everybody's all about work! ”

Lin Qiangsheng pretended to be serious and nodded, and said secretly: Eating is also for work?!

He turned his head and said a few words loudly to Leon, who shook his head and waved his hand. Zhou Hua also saw that this foreign guest really didn't want to eat their banquet anymore.

Lin Qiangsheng turned his head to Zhou Hua and said, "Do you think this is okay?" Just prepare some champagne drinks for the foreign guests, which means that they really don't want to drink anymore. Champagne drinks are still acceptable, and if so, I can persuade them again! ”

Zhou Hua thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay, as long as the foreign guests can participate in our reception banquet, little brother is bothering you!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng smiled: "Minister Zhou, you are too polite!" My dad is Lin Xiangrong, the director of the automobile factory! My mother is Xu Hongmei from the Municipal Health Bureau! I'm Lin Johnson! ”

Zhou Hua sighed and said in surprise: "Young man, you are Lin Qiangsheng!" Your father did a good job in the car factory! Well, your mother is fine at the city health bureau too! He then smiled and said, "Then please tell this foreign guest, you must come to our banquet!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng nodded, just had the previous sentence, turned his head to Leon and said, "Let's go again!" They won't let you drink this time, how about a champagne drink? Then he whispered in Leon's ear: "These officials are important local figures, and I can't offend them!" ”

Leon waved his hand and complained to Lin Qiangsheng: "If I had known, I really shouldn't have come!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng smiled and said to Zhou Hua: "Okay! The foreign guests agreed, but they must not drink again! ”

Zhou Hua smiled: "Good job, young man, thank you!" I've seen your parents too, they're all good comrades! This time the foreign guests visited, everyone was invited, but our organization department did not invite, as if they were lagging behind! ”

Lin Qiangsheng said with a smile: "Uncle Zhou, you are too polite!" When is the time, our family will definitely visit your house! ”

Lin Qiangsheng said hello to Zhou Hua first, and became familiar with the head of the organization.

Zhou Hua smiled, looked at Lin Qiangsheng in surprise, and thought to himself, this young man is really as different as the rumors say!
