"It's still back to the army headquarters, the old position."

"It's time to improve, right?"

"I don't know if the position will be mentioned, the military rank will definitely be awarded to colonel. Fei Fei is better than me, and she will also be awarded the rank of colonel, as for whether she will be the head of the regiment or the division chief, I don't know for the time being. ”

"Okay, I hope you all improve, and when you surpass me, it will be better."

"It's unrealistic to surpass you. I have been in the regiment for 3 years now, and in two years I can be promoted to a deputy teacher, and in another 5 years, my dad will be over 63 and retire early. Fei Fei's situation will be better, although her grandfather has died, her uncle's influence in the military world has risen, and their protégés should repay their kindness, and those who should be attached still have to be attached. But that's it, it still takes 10 years to climb to the rank of full teacher, and you have been at the department level for 5 years now. ”

"It's difficult for me to get on for the time being, a secretary of the municipal party committee in his early 30s is already shocking, according to the current shape, without a few years of work, the vice provincial and ministerial level can't go up, and it's very good to stay up to the age of 40 and be able to take charge of the party."

"Let's stay up slowly, isn't life just like this? Think about when we met, but we were only 23 or 4 years old, and now we are not about to be 30 years old? ”

Grandma Gao beckoned everyone to dinner. Wuyang said: "Grandma, don't you wait for Aiping them? ”

"Don't wait, they don't necessarily come back when, they may come back after dinner. Anyway, they all left the food. Grandma Gao said.

At this time, the mobile phone rang, and it was Hong Feifei calling, "Wuyang." Go to the Imperial Dining Room. Dad, they're waiting for you. There are two bottles of red wine to go. ”

"Did you go over?"

"My mom won't go. What am I going to do? ”

"Okay, I'll go over right away." After hanging up, I asked Grandma Gao: "Grandma, do we still have red wine at home?" ”

Grandpa Gao said: "Yes, that thing is Xiaoya's father came back and opened a bottle, and we all drink liquor." You people who are in the wine business may bring a lot of them over every time to save trouble, except for the jadeite in the basement. It's all wine. ”

"Grandpa, it's better to have more, so that you don't have it when you want to."

I hugged a piece of red wine, asked Huang Li for the car keys, and went out. As soon as they arrived at the door, Aiping and a girl just got out of the car. Aiping ran over when she saw him, and Wuyang quickly put down the wine and had a wet kiss with her.

"Wuyang, do you miss me?"

"Of course." Wuyang suddenly remembered that Aiping spoke Chinese. "Ai Ping. Chinese has made a lot of progress. ”

"Listen is progress, say. Again, no. ”

"Okay, take your time."

"Yes, take your time."

"Hello junior sister, thank you for your hard work."

"Hello Senior Brother Li, I am the apprentice of the fifth master, Guo Ruilan."

"Fifth Uncle's apprentice, that swordsmanship and secret weapon must be very powerful."

"It can be, but it can't be compared with Senior Brother Li. I studied for 3 years, and the master scolded me for not learning as well as you for a day. ”

Wuyang smiled and said, "That's what Uncle Fifth inspired you." All right, you go in and eat, I'm going out to socialize. ”

Guo Ruilan said: "Senior brother, I'll drive for you, if you bring wine, you will definitely have to drink, it's inconvenient to drive." ”

"It's inconvenient for this kind of occasion, just ask someone to send it back at the hotel when the time comes."

"Senior brother, others also want to bring a driver, I'll just have a table with the driver."

"Okay, let's go. Ai Ping, come inside, it's cold outside. ”

When I arrived at the imperial dining room, I took out two bottles of wine from the cardboard box and put them in the bag, and walked in with Guo Ruilan, and saw at the door that in addition to the welcome lady, there were also two people wearing windbreakers and sunglasses. The welcome lady led them to the door of the box, and saw two of the same people, Wuyang thought to himself, could it be the faction boss who came?

When I entered the door, sure enough, the big guy was sitting on the top position, next to Secretary Zhang, Secretary Hong, Chairman Chen, Lieutenant General Fei Fei's second uncle, and two people about 50 years old, Wuyang didn't know him.

"Hello chief." Wuyang stood two meters away and bowed.

The second uncle said: "Xiao Li is here, sit down, do you have a driver?" ”

"Brought it."

"Let's go to the private room next to it. Waiter, you bring it over. ”

Secretary Hong said: "I don't know these two, let me introduce you, this is Secretary Yao, and this is Minister Chen." Say their children, and you know them all. ”

Wuyang stood up and bent over them separately, "It's Yao Qi and Chen Yifan's father." ”

Secretary Yao said, "Yes." Xiao Li, these young people have made a lot of progress under your training. I hope you can lead them to do a good job. ”

Wuyang said: "I am still inexperienced and immature, and I implore all the leaders to criticize and advise more." ”

At this time, the big guy spoke: "Xiao Li, today I want to criticize you well, you have two things that you haven't handled well, do you know?" ”

"Ask the chief for advice."

"One is inaction. The son of the big boss, he calls you a brother, right? He and you jointly exploit oil and gas fields in the South China Sea, which is a big issue related to national strategy, what have you done in the past year? ”

"I didn't do anything, I just arranged for someone to do it, I didn't ask myself, and the specific situation is not clear."

"The other is that it's too welcoming. A certain leader arranged for you to take two ladies to buy jadeite, and you left your job for half a month. You have asked for advice on this matter in advance, but you can only click on it, can you help with the loan? Now it's okay, one of the two people is spitting out wild words, wanting to monopolize the domestic jade industry, which has made the industry complaining and revealing a lot of shady scenes, if it is investigated, it will inevitably cause a major earthquake in the political arena, so they have to persuade them to divorce; The other is that the children are squandering abroad, causing public resentment to boil, and if they don't know how to restrain themselves, something big will happen sooner or later. ”

"Chief, I really didn't expect the consequences to be so severe."

"Except for a few of us, no one else knows about this matter, and that's the end of it. In the future, you should use your brains more when encountering problems, especially when you encounter things involving the upper echelons, you should ask for more instructions and report frequently. Keep the top management on top of what's going on. Grasp the direction in time. ”

Secretary Hong said: "Xiao Li. The chief has high expectations for you, and some provincial and ministerial-level cadres will not be so concerned. ”

"Chief, I must keep the teachings in mind and work hard to do a good job."

The big guy said: "Xiao Li, we don't know what Zhang Gongzi will say to you now, we discussed it, and he has invested so much manpower, material resources, and financial resources now." In addition, the national strategic needs must be carried out. What you need to do is to actively cooperate with him and do everything possible to put it into mining as soon as possible. Regarding your work, whether you can go to the Propaganda Department or not, the work of the municipal party committee, we will fine-tune the team, and we will also say hello to the provincial party committee. But this city is already our position and cannot be lost. ”

Chairman Chen said: "Xiao Li. Your control over the Lanjiang Municipal Party Committee is already absolute. Lanjiang City's outstanding achievements in economic development, especially in improving people's livelihood, are well known to the chief, and we do not need you to make any outstanding achievements now, because in such a backward area, many things cannot be achieved overnight, as long as they can develop steadily. ”

The big guy said: "Xiao Li, how are you going to arrange your future work?" ”

Wuyang said: "For the work of our city, we must vigorously attract investment, speed up the construction of the industrial base, and strive to make our city an industrial base in the southwest; In agriculture, while continuing to do a good job in planting flowers, fruits, medicinal herbs, tobacco leaves, and coffee, we must also do a good job in the follow-up primary and deep processing, so that the peasants will not have to worry about the sale of their products, can really make money, and become rich as much as possible. In the area of public order, we must actively devise ways to do a good job in the work of narcotics control and drug rehabilitation, so as to eradicate the tumor at its roots. ”

"Well, this arrangement seems to have been carefully considered by you, which shows that you have something in mind. With the development of industrial and agricultural production and the curing of the tumor, you will be a fertile soil for prosperity under your rule. Xiao Li, how long do you think it will take to get it right? ”

"Chief, it will take at least three years to build a relatively comprehensive industrial enterprise and achieve benefits, and it will take more than five years to establish the deep processing of agricultural products and establish a sales network in the country or the world. The work of eradicating the cancer cannot be set on a timetable, and it requires our grassroots cadres and law enforcement personnel to cut off the source of narcotics and develop production through patient and meticulous work, so that drug addicts can feel that they have a head in their lives, so that this problem can be fundamentally solved. ”

The big guy smiled and said, "Okay, we'll give you time." Xiao Li, with your ability, I think you can take greater responsibility, but you are too young, and the foundation needs to be built more firmly. There is another thing, that is, Secretary Zhang went to the northwest, where a lot of investment is urgently needed for development. Of course, this is not only true of his district, but also of other provinces and regions. We just discussed that your family's company can take on this important task. ”

Wuyang said: "Chief, I may not be able to take care of it now." ”

"It's not about making you invest right away. Our idea, you can send someone to investigate the situation and look for investment projects now. In a few years, with our ascension, it will be time for us to come up with more and greater achievements and invest in a big way. ”

Wuyang said: "Chief, after several years of preparation, it will definitely be no problem. ”

"I trust you, and I'll listen to my arrangement when the time comes. Let's not talk about work, you master is here, you go and inform the comrades of the Security Bureau to eat and serve food. ”

Wuyang went to the door of the hotel to notify the two people, and asked the waiter to serve the food, and when he returned to the door, he notified the two people to eat.

During the meal, the big guy was a glass of red wine from beginning to end, Secretary Hong and they were not at the age of eating and drinking, and Wuyang came to them one by one to toast, that is, they took a big sip.

After saluting the big guy and respecting Secretary Zhang, Secretary Zhang said: "Xiao Li, have you bought jade recently?" When the chief went to my house, he saw the statue you gave to the old lady, and he praised him repeatedly, and when it was convenient, he carved a statue for the chief. ”

The big guy said: "My wife received a Plexiglass statue of the leader 20 years ago, and it is still in the house. Xiao Li, it doesn't matter what kind of statue you put on, as long as you like it in your heart, you must not get it, I won't want it if you get it. ”

Wuyang said: "Chief, I'm going to get these things, it's like ordinary people buying Chinese cabbage, and if it's worthless, I'll try to send it over before the meeting." ”

Secretary Zhang smiled: "If you have something, ask for leave." Don't get the statue, listen to the greetings, or the chief won't like you. The most important thing in officialdom. It is a qiē action to listen to the command. ”

"Okay. I'll just carry out the order. ”

When the table is dismissed. Wuyang said: "Chief, I will come to the capital in the future and want to report to you." ”

The big guy was hesitating, and Secretary Zhang spoke: "Xiao Li, local officials can't come in casually, unless they are summoned." ”

The big guy said: "Work hard in the future, I will pay attention to you." ”

"Thank you, Chief."

After saying goodbye, Guo Ruilan drove off. Wuyang said: "Senior Sister Guo, you drive slowly, I still have something to do, and I don't know where to go yet." ”

took out his mobile phone and called Lin Shi, "Xiaoshi, where is it?" ”

"Own in the villa. Brother-in-law, have you entered Beijing? ”

"Yes. I want a piece of white jadeite from last time, is there anything else? ”

"Yes, we just sold a few small, broken pieces. The slightly larger ones are kept. It's right in my villa with Xiaoliang. Will you come over or will I send it over? ”

"I'm in the North Third Ring Road now, where is your location?"

"I'm in the East Fourth Ring Road, there is only one villa area here, you go to the door and ask for Nos. 825 or 826, and the doorman will sue you."

"Okay." After telling Guo Ruilan's position, his eyes were staring ahead.

Guo Ruilan glanced at Wuyang, "Senior brother, have you been to Zhangjiawan recently?" ”

"No, I haven't been there in years. Has it changed a lot? ”

"Great. Now near the river, a school was built, which is a place where the students of various martial arts schools concentrated on learning culture, and the six masters all built a martial arts school, and the place was not enough, and they bought the valley on both sides, and built a wall, and built a running track and a horse path inside the wall, and when I was there, I had to walk twice a day in the morning and evening, or running, or riding. ”

"Were there many students when you were there?"

"Not much, each family is 60 people, divided into 3 classes. Now you can be strict in recruiting students, and those who are not in good physical condition, have poor academic performance, and are not interested in martial arts. ”

"Looks like you're doing well in every way?"

"It's just stupid."

"Pretty girl, you have to be stupid." Wuyang said with a smile.

"Brother, are the sisters-in-law stupid?"

"Of course it's stupid, or you know it's a fire pit, and you still jump into it?"

"Brother, sister, I want to dance too."

"Ruilan, let's be honest with you, I don't think I'm in a situation right now. Seeing a beautiful girl, I can't control myself, and it is not a problem to receive it at home, and it is not a problem to give everyone material enjoyment, but after all, I am a person who mixes in the officialdom, and this kind of thing is easy to be discovered. ”

Guo Ruilan smiled: "Brother, in fact, you still haven't seen through the world. These sisters-in-law and you are either running for your talent or your money. When you get home, you really don't disappoint them, and you live a rich and happy life, and you are all satisfied. In the past, those big families, in the palace, between wives and concubines, and concubines, were jealous and intrigued, that is, they wanted to fight for power and profit, your family, the right is equal, everyone does not have it, there is no need to fight for profit, how much you want, so there is no basis for contradictions. That's why I wanted to join. Look at all the people, many actresses, beautiful, right? Isn't it also desperate to become famous, make money, and willingly accept the unspoken rules, in the end, how many lives can be perfect? ”

"Is this what you're thinking?"

"I've been to your house, and I'm at your house for the New Year, and I talked to Mengyu and Sister Mengxin."

"They also asked you to come to Beijing because of Mengyu?"

"I can't wait to meet you, and of course they're supportive."

"Okay, let's go with the flow."

Guo Ruilan laughed when she heard it, "Brother, I'm guò?" ”

"Hmm."

"Brother's pursuit of beautiful women is still as interested as ever."

"That's all I have left."

"It's the only hobby that's real. Money, fame, and status, either my brother has it, or he can't get it by force. “

"Everything is a floating cloud."

"Beauty can at least please the mind and body."

"Hey, hey, hey." Guo Ruilan turned her head and saw Wuyang with a wicked smile, "Brother, aren't you thinking about it now?" ”

"With that in mind, let's open the room."

"Brother, don't worry, let's go home. During the two sessions. The capital is very tight. I don't care. If my brother is arrested, it will have a bad impact. ”

"I'm kidding you, although I'm colored, I don't have this Cheng dù. Look, the villa area has arrived, turn in. ”

After asking the doorman, he drove straight to the door of Lin Shi's villa. The villa area is also an opening in the East Fourth Ring Road, and the land is between the Fourth Ring Road and the Fifth Ring Road. Lin Shi's villa is in the innermost, which is already close to the Fifth Ring Road.

The doorbell rang on the wrought iron gate, and Lin Shi and Lin Liang both ran out. The two of them called their brother-in-law while running, and when they opened the door, they came with a bear hug one after another.

"The two of you are going to buy such a villa?"

"No, we bought all the 16 sets in the back two rows. Each set covers an area of 20 acres, with a construction area of 5,000 square meters of main house, 200 square meters of miscellaneous house and 300 square meters of swimming pool. The price is 550 million, and there is no decoration. ”

"Do you live in this set?"

"Nope. We just bought some low-end furniture, turned on water, electricity and heating, and nothing else. We want to go to college in the future, or if we need to, we will slowly renovate them one by one. ”

Guo Ruilan said: "What kind of pollution source do you have here, it stinks." ”

Lin Liang said: "We invited my brother-in-law's people to plant trees, and a lot of fertilizer was applied to the bottom of the pit. We're used to it. Brother-in-law, will you sit in the house? ”

"No, I moved the jadeite, and I have to ask someone to carve it when I go back. Where, take me there. ”

Lin Shi said: "Just leave it in the living room, there are no guests anyway, the pig kennel and dog kennel are all enjoyed by ourselves." These jadeites also have to be sold, and it is difficult to move them around. ”

Wuyang followed them into the living room, where there were a few incandescent lamps, a set of sofas, a dining table, and no TV.

"How do you eat it?"

Lin Liang said: "We make our own dinner. Breakfast is eaten at the snack bar, and lunch is eaten in the school cafeteria, so you can't get hungry. ”

"Yes, yes, your self-care ability will be strong in the future, but you also have to pay attention to the combination of nutrition, you have to practice martial arts, and you have to spend your brains."

"It's okay, we don't care about the money, we buy what is delicious. Brother-in-law, this is the rest of the jade. ”

Wuyang looked at the jadeite piled up in the living room in the middle of the living room, "Are all your leftovers here?" Anything else? ”

Lin Liang said: "At that time, there were not 3 pieces on the mountain, we asked for a piece, this big one, after cutting out two mattresses, we sold some small ones, these big ones are inconvenient to move, and we are not short of money, so we didn't move." ”

"Xiao Liang, Xiao Shi, you have to fight to buy this villa area, and it's the same as now, don't decorate, only plant flowers and trees, and you will definitely make money in the future."

Xiao Shi said: "Brother-in-law, 7 of us have transferred from others. These homeowners are all speculators, and none of the 80 villas live in. Xiaoliang and I wanted to buy it, but people said that we wouldn't buy it up, so we stopped. ”

"How much does a speculator have to increase the price?"

"They only need us to pay the deed tax, but they are still afraid of falling in their hearts."

"Do you want to buy it? If you don't buy it, I'll do it. ”

"Can't we buy it? But we have to take the college entrance examination. ”

"Let this Sister Guo help, you will give her the walls on both sides of the fourth and fifth rings, and let her build a house and open a café, a bar, a restaurant, or something. I see that these are all high-end residential areas, and the service outlets are still blank. ”

Xiao Liang said: "Then we want to drink coffee and eat for free." ”

Wuyang said with a smile: "The children of senior cadres have also learned to take advantage of small advantages." ”

"Sister Guo is a businessman and knows that there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world."

"Okay, you leave your phone number, and I'll pick a piece of jade."

Wuyang was in the jade pile, and soon selected a relatively regular cuboid, with a width and thickness of about 30 cm, a height of about 60 cm, and a weight of about 180 kg. It doesn't matter the size, the main thing is that this piece of jadeite is the purest, and the whole piece is as white as plexiglass. Of course, jadeite is also a stone, and it cannot be as pure and transparent as plexiglass.

Picking up the jade to leave, Guo Ruilan said, "Brother, I don't come here to open any café." (To be continued......)
