"It was the winter of 1973, and I got my admission letter to the university, so I went home from the educated youth point to rest and prepare for school. It was spring and I had two months off.

At that time, the old man had been working, and there was a waiter at home, so I went home and had nothing to do, so I wandered around. One day, I saw a female health guard in the health department of the compound, tall and tall, with big eyes and beautiful facial features. Wasn't I an adolescent at that time, so I didn't care about launching a powerful offensive, and it took half a month to finally catch her up. Later, I was studying, she was a soldier, and the two have always been in secret correspondence.

During the Spring Festival of '76, I took something from home for her to eat, and was discovered by my attentive mother. At that time, there was a shortage of materials, although it was a high-ranking family, and the rations were very high-end, but the amount was not much.

Under the cross-examination of my parents, I told me what had happened, and when they saw the girl, they were satisfied, so they promoted her to a nurse and received her salary.

At the beginning of July of that year, I graduated and started working, and my parents began to plan for our marriage. But in October, the Gang of Four was crushed, and her father, a minion of the Gang of Four, was imprisoned. She insisted on breaking up with me, saying that she didn't want to affect our family.

I dragged her to the house and told her to listen to the old man. The old man said: "Our whole family likes you as a daughter-in-law, so we are not afraid of being connected, and your wedding will be held as well."

The girl was very happy and excited, and that night, she stayed at our house, and we did the things of husband and wife. ”

Wuyang said: "Dad, how many years have you all been dating before you got together?" ”

Secretary Hong said: "That era was not as good as now. If unmarried cohabitation is discovered, expulsion from the party and public office is dealt with lightly. We only dared to come together with the tacit approval of my parents. ”

"So is she Fei Fei's mother?"

"That's the problem. After a few days together, we didn't see her. I went to the health center to inquire. He said that he was transferred, and when he asked where he went, he said that he didn't know, and that your father ordered him to be transferred. For so many years, despite the vast sea of people, I have been looking for it and asked the old man many times. He said he would tell me later. It wasn't until he was dying that he told the truth.

It turned out that my father's old chief was going to introduce me to girls. My father reported the situation truthfully, but was scolded by the old chief, saying that he was confused and was taking his political life as a child's play. Father gritted his teeth. So he transferred the girl away. After the girl arrives at her new job. The belly slowly grew bigger, and the unit leader reported to the old man, and the old man asked her to arrange for her to give birth to the child, and also sent the living expenses on schedule. And took advantage of the opportunity to get off the army and went to see the child several times.

When I learned about the situation, I went to visit their mother and son, but they didn't recognize me. The boy worked as a workshop manager in a factory, and I used my connections to transfer him to the government department. Last year, he was promoted to the rank of deputy director. Wuyang, I will write you the address and name. If possible, take care of him. ”

"Does that auntie have any other children?"

"No, she has never been married, she worked in the army until she retired, and now she is at home with her grandchildren."

"Do you want to give them a sum of money to make their lives better?"

"Fei Fei has money, I can give it to them, but I can't even see each other, and I can't mention this matter. If you have time, just find a reason, don't say that I let you go, or I'm afraid you'll be driven away. Fei Fei's mother's side is definitely not to be mentioned, you know? ”

Wuyang took the note written by Secretary Hong and looked at it, it turned out that Wu Weimin was under the jurisdiction of the city, he was his old friend, and he was a classmate of the party school, and this time the 17th National Congress was also elected as an alternate Central Committee, and he must be promoted in the position of secretary of the municipal party committee, and it should be no problem to help such a favor.

"Dad, the secretary of the municipal party committee here is my classmate, and Fei Fei also worked there, so she should know her, otherwise I'll call now?"

Secretary Hong said: "You call, don't get involved with Fei Fei." ”

Wuyang dialed Wu Weimin's phone, "Secretary Wu, I'm Li Wuyang, where am I going to be promoted recently?" ”

Wu Weimin said: "Secretary Li, you are now a high-ranking official and a horse to ride, and you will soon be the governor." ”

Wuyang said: "No, it's just moved to the provincial capital." ”

"I'm in trouble now, I don't know what to do, and the future is bleak."

"What's the matter, can I help?"

"It's not a big deal, but it's going to be a big problem. When I was in the county, didn't the county cooperate with your friend to build a steel plant, and at that time I appointed a cronie to be the chairman, and he was treated very well in recent years. I also relied on being a cronie, and gave him such a fat shortage, and my mind was paralyzed. Isn't there a shortage of hospitality in the city, so I reimbursed some of the profits of the steel mill, and I thought it was nothing, but who knew that this person was a villain. He was getting old and the county informed him of his retirement, and he approached me and asked the county government to buy him a house in the city and give him the car he was using. ”

"How's that going to work? The things of the state are not what anyone wants to want. ”

Wu Weimin said: "Yes, more than two million things, no one dares to open this mouth." Who knew that he was unreasonable and threatened to poke me out of the factory for reimbursement of entertainment expenses. Secretary Li, now that the central government is grasping this kind of thing tightly, it must be accurate, even if it is clear in the end that it is indeed used for entertainment, my career will be delayed. My appointment as executive vice governor has long been decided, and I can't afford to toss. ”

"Is it that if you meet his requirements, you won't be fooling around?"

Wu Weimin said: "This is not certain. This kind of villain, I am still kind to him, he forgets his righteousness, he will take revenge, give him things, I am afraid it is also difficult to fill the desire, and it may make him beat him up, thinking that I am a thief with a weak heart. ”

"Is that good, I asked my friend to hire him as the director of the steel plant, promising a high salary, and no matter how good words and persuasion, maybe I can stabilize him."

Wu Weimin said: "This is also a way to do it. Such a person is not reusable, and if he knows about your factory, it is also a big hidden danger. It's going to make it hard to sleep. ”

Wuyang was shocked, he knew that it was a hidden danger, and if you Wu Weimin knew, wasn't it a hidden danger? To know. There are only eternal interests in the world, and there are no eternal friends, and this is true between countries and between people. "Secretary Wu, it's okay. My family runs a factory, and the bosses of the central government are clear, and I have never been involved in running it. didn't enjoy the fruits of business, so if he wanted to sue, let him sue. I believe that between enjoying a high salary and a boring retirement. He was able to make the right choice. ”

"Secretary Li, if you can stabilize him, I really thank you. Did you call today, do you have any instructions? ”

"There's something to trouble you. One of my subordinates' half-brother is named Cao Weidong. He served as the deputy director of the Bureau of Industry and Information Technology of your city. It's not young, it's 77 years old. This government re-election, you can see if it is convenient for him to move the nest, that is the matter I want to ask you. ”

Wu Weimin said: "I know this Cao Weidong, he is tall and big, a talent, and his work ability is also very good. The result is very satisfactory, the only thing is that he was transferred from the enterprise to the Bureau of Industry and Information Technology last year. It's a little shorter. ”

Wuyang said: "The National People's Congress will be held after New Year's Day, and it will be enough for two years at that time." If he waits until the next government's term expires, then he will be 45 or 6 years old, and he will be a middle-level cadre for the rest of his life. ”

Wu Weimin said: "Secretary Li, don't worry, I can still handle this thing." But I'm curious, can you tell us about his background? I know that if you were a normal person, you wouldn't need to call in person. ”

Wuyang's mobile phone has always been on hands-free, and when Secretary Hong heard Wu Weimin say this, he waved his hand at Wuyang and motioned for him to say. "Secretary Wu, since I want to ask you for help, I naturally want to tell you about the situation. Cao Weidong is surnamed with his mother, and his father is Secretary Hong of our province. He was born in an era when politics was said to dominate everything, which is something that our generation cannot understand. Soon after Cao Weidong's parents got married, the Gang of Four collapsed, and his grandfather was forced to separate because he was implicated in the Gang of Four. ”

Wu Weimin said: "Can you be involved with the Gang of Four, is it also a high-level cadre? ”

"Yes, the parents on both sides are high-level officials, and of course they can't avoid this kind of thing. After the separation, the woman left the country, and Secretary Hong did not know that she was pregnant, and later married another wife and had children, and there was no further communication. I went to look for it after I knew it a few years ago, but their mother and son didn't recognize this father anymore. ”

Wu Weimin said: "It is understandable that it is difficult to turn this corner ideologically for a while. Secretary Li, please tell Secretary Hong that this matter is on me. As long as I can manage it, I will focus on promoting and using it, and I will also persuade him to understand his father's hardships and return to the Hong family. ”

"Okay, thank you. Secretary Wu, see you in the capital in a few days. ”

"See you in the capital."

The Central Committee has decided that on January 5, the Central Committee will hold a seminar for new members of the Central Committee and alternate Central Committee to study and implement the spirit of the 17th National Congress.

Hanging up the phone, Wuyang asked, "Dad, it won't have any bad effects if you say that, right?" ”

Secretary Hong said: "It doesn't matter, if I am still the secretary of the provincial party committee, I am a little afraid that the impact will be bad, and now there is no need to worry about such a trivial matter." Besides, when I was young and caught up with that era, it was normal for some accidents to happen, but I just didn't make it clear to the organization. Now that our system is on the rise, as long as I don't cause trouble, no one cares about me as an idler. ”

Wuyang said: "Dad, after all, you are the leader of the deputy state, and I will still keep the things you should pay attention to secret." Let the people in your office sort out these books in your office, and they will handle them according to your wishes. ”

Secretary Hong said: "It's okay, after your office is arranged, I will ask someone to send it over, and you can take a look when you have time." Don't be like me, just like me. ”

"Okay. Last time in Beijing, at the end of the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Father Liu sent someone to give me dozens of books, and I now have time to read them, and the harvest is not small. ”

"Yes, you should read more. As a high-ranking cadre of the party, necessary entertainment and entertainment are indispensable, but if you indulge in lustful dogs and horses, you will be no different from an upstart. You see, we sometimes relax and relax, but you never see me have any love. It is said that we are in the same system, and we should be together more after work. But because we are Weng and son-in-law, it is impossible to go in and out of entertainment venues together, otherwise I, the old man, will lose face. You're in the days to come. It must also be grasped as well as before, and it will not be harmless. Remember what the ancients said, people are doing it, and the sky is watching, but in fact, as long as you don't touch the interests of others, no one will fix you. However, as the person in charge of a first-level organization, he shoulders the interests of millions of people, and sometimes it is inevitable that the interests of a few people will be touched. It is inevitable that they will hold a grudge and will do everything possible to find out your behavior and bring you down. ”

Wuyang said: "I just can't control myself in my private life, and I will be more cautious and cautious in the future." ”

"Except for Fei Fei, who are people with public office. Has everyone else immigrated? If you don't do it, you have to hurry up. ”

"I did everything I was willing to do. Even recently, a few more people with public offices have been added, and they themselves don't propose to immigrate, and I can't urge them. ”

Secretary Hong said: "Wuyang, these things can only be grasped by yourself, I can't give you a hard and fast rule, you just have to control it yourself." The ancients said that when people go, they are angry, and you are lucky now. There's no need to worry about these things, as long as you don't get carried away. If you later get news that is not good for you. Remember, it's better to believe what you have than what you don't, and it's better to walk away. ”

"Dad, when that time comes, it's really hard to say whether there is a chance or not, anyway, it's up to fate."

"Okay, if you have this mental preparation, you will be able to face it calmly when the time comes. At present, it is still necessary to work hard and do more useful work for the masses of the people. No matter what happens in the future, you will always be worthy of this land that gave birth to you and raised you. ”

"Okay, I remember. Let's go, it's time for a working meal. ”

After lunch, Wuyang called Long Yuebin and learned that the people's congress in Tanzhou was going to be held after the two sessions of the National People's Congress, and he was okay for the time being, and he did not hand over the work with Yang Litai, so he was ready to rush to Yihe, because tomorrow is the New Year's Day, and the People's Congress and the CPPCC in Yihe will be held, and some things still need to be implemented. As soon as Xu Zhengliang drove away from the provincial party committee compound, Wuyang received a call from Xie Jiliang, "Wuyang, where is it?" ”

"At work, what's wrong?"

Xie Jiliang said: "Tomorrow is the New Year, and I arranged for some seafood to be shipped from the beach for the company's management to taste." ”

Wuyang said: "Is it for everyone?" You calculate the price and weight, and I will give you the commission that should be given to you. ”

Xie Daxia said with a smile: "You are willing to give away so many things, and I still have to take dividends, is it a judgment?" In this way, a total of more than 20 trucks and 1,000 tons of goods will be pulled back, you name a way, and I will organize and divide it. ”

Wuyang said, "Has the thing arrived?" ”

"Soon to be there."

"Then I'll wait until I get back. You arrange for someone to notify each household. ”

Let Xu Zhengliang drive back to Shuanglong Villa, the flat at the gate was full of trailers, and more people came to prepare to receive things. Seeing Wuyang get out of the car, Xie Daxia came over with a piece of paper, "Wuyang, this is the list of goods, you can take a look." ”

Wuyang took it and looked at it, and it read: 220 tons of abalone, 240 tons of salmon, 180 tons of tuna, 120 tons of scallops, 80 tons of oysters, 60 tons of sea cucumbers, 60 tons of eel, and 40 tons of lobster. These things are worth a lot of money, just 3 abalone, the price per catty is 220 yuan, worth 96.8 million, and the total value is more than 500 million.

"Hero, are these things bred by you?"

"Salmon is not, everything else is farmed."

Wuyang smiled: "You brought back so much at one time, is our hotel enough?" ”

Xie Daxia said: "You don't have to worry about this, the things here, abalone and eel, are not even 1% of the number we farm, such as oysters and scallops, less than one thousandth." However, they are all things that have been cultivated for a long time, are relatively large, and the price is relatively high. ”

"As long as it doesn't affect the business of the hotel, I often send some to everyone."

Xie Daxia said: "Recently, in addition to tourist attractions, the business of hotels has declined, and the demand is not as great as before, so it can be supplied to its own people." Otherwise, there would be no superfluous things to be cultivated and fished. ”

At this time, Xiong Gangqiang's wife said: "Boss Li, Boss Xie, these things are expensive, don't send them again in the future, set up a shop in the villa area, and everyone can come and buy them." ”

Wuyang said: "Sister-in-law, the company distributes materials to everyone, which is also a kind of welfare." ”

Mrs. Xiong said: "For example, our old bear is not in good health, and the child is not at home, he can't eat the pork and chicken that the company sends us, and the refrigerator at home is full." If you want to eat seafood, you can't buy such a good one. ”

Xie Daxia smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you are in good health, can you be responsible for managing this seafood store?" ”

Mrs. Xiong said: "I definitely can't do this, I have never done business in my life. ”

Xie Daxia said: "Doing business is actually very simple, after the purchase is marked, someone comes to buy, and the money is collected by the pound, and no one buys it, so it is left in the freezer." ”

Mrs. Xiong said: "Then I will discuss with Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Li, the two of them are a few years younger than me, their education level is also high, and their children have gone to school, and they are all idle at home and have nothing to do." ”

Wuyang said: "Sister-in-law, you can organize all the sisters-in-law who have no job and open a chain store." You can also open a seafood stall, selling both raw and cooked seafood, which may be a good business. ”

Mrs. Xiong said, "Boss Li, where do you say to find so many people?" ”

"There are so many family members of employees in the company, and you can open a store where the company has an enterprise, which can just solve their employment problems."

"Then can Boss Xie guarantee to supply us with seafood?"

Xie Daxia said: "I'm not afraid that you will ask for more goods, just increase the amount of breeding." Let's put it this way, I'm only in my 30s now, and as long as I don't retire for a day, I'm guaranteed to provide for you for one day. After retirement, the company's breeding base will definitely still be there, and it will not give you the goods. ”

"As much as you want?"

"The more the merrier."

"Can they all be delivered to your door?"

"No problem. Now that the transportation is so developed, if it is too far away, I will use the plane to deliver the goods, and ensure that you will not be interrupted. Sister-in-law, if you don't have the funds to open a store, let Wuyang contribute. ”

Mrs. Xiong said: "Money is not a problem, we all have spare money." Haha, I didn't expect to be in my 50s, but I remembered to make money. ”

Wuyang said: "Sister-in-law, it's time to start a business in your 50s, and Jiang Ziya is still fishing by the Wei River at the age of 80." ”

Mrs. Xiong said, "Okay, let's discuss it right away and get the store up and running as soon as possible." ”

"Sister-in-law, if you need help with something, you can find Chairman Xiong and Chairman Guo. You tell them that this is not for you, but for the company to sell seafood. If you have taken a fancy to the land in various places, and you need to invest a lot of construction funds, and your own funds are not enough, you can ask me to borrow it, or you can go to the bank for a loan, and I will find someone to provide you with a guarantee. ”

Mrs. Xiong said: "Several of us have so much money in our families, so we don't need to take out loans." However, I still appreciate Boss Li's kindness. ”

Wuyang smiled: "Sister-in-law, you still haven't started yet, and you only know what it means to spend money like water when you enter the door." Of course, if you open a store in one place, make money and then open it in another place, you don't need as much start-up rent. ”

Mrs. Xiong said: "Let's open a few first, and if we have money to make, we will spread it out in an all-round way, and then we may really need a loan." (To be continued......)
