Because Secretary Liu also had to accompany his mother, the prepared banquet was received by Deputy Mayor Zhao Fanghua.

Several main cadres in the town also left the health center under the hint of Secretary Liu, came to the canteen of the town government, and accompanied Ding Chenggong to eat and drink.

The atmosphere of eating and drinking in Chinese officialdom has a long history, and no matter how remote the place, there are always high-end places for VIPs to eat and drink.

Bluestone Town is no exception.

As soon as he came to the VIP hall of the town canteen, Ding Chenggong was pulled by Zhao Fanghua to sit down beside him, and enthusiastically introduced to the cadres present: "This is my newly recognized godbrother Ding Chenggong." And my savior! ”

The cadres all knew that Ding Chenggong had saved Secretary Liu's mother just now, and now they heard that he was Mayor Zhao's life-saving benefactor, and they flattered Ding Chenggong enthusiastically, and the atmosphere of the banquet was very lively and harmonious.

Unconsciously, it has been three rounds of wine and five flavors of food. The topic of the cadres slowly turned to the issue of work.

"Lao Wu, how is the export order of your straw weaving factory?" Zhao Fanghua, who is in charge of industry and tertiary production, smiled and asked Wu Deli, the director of the straw weaving factory.

"Don't mention it! Mayor Zhao, the fifth uncle of our town's straw weaving master, suddenly fell seriously ill and entered the city hospital a few days ago, and the production of the carrot cage was delayed! ”

Lao Wu said with a sad face: "This is not a trivial matter! This batch of gnats and cages is to be exported to Taiwan. If we can't deliver the goods next month, we will not only lose 500,000 yuan in income, but also bear a high amount of liquidated damages! ”

"At this moment, the town has lost five or six hundred thousand!" Zhao Fanghua also said anxiously: "Fifth Uncle Wang is sick, is there no one else who can make it up?" "This craft has always been a unique craft that has been passed on to men but not to women. I don't pay my own daughter, let alone others! Lao Wu smiled bitterly: "Our income-generating task this year, the tax task seems to be going to be lost!" ”

"It's really not the right time for this Fifth Uncle Wang to get sick!" Song Qingshan, the deputy mayor next to him, immediately gloated and said: "Now, the income-generating task determined by the town cannot be completed, Xiao Zhao, you have to report to Secretary Liu as soon as possible, and talk to the leaders as soon as possible, so as not to be passive!" “

Ding Chenggong looked at this triumphant guy coldly, and his heart was furious!

It's this bastard thing, who shouted at himself just now, and added fuel to the fire when Secretary Liu was angry! I almost arrested myself at the police station, not to mention, and almost delayed the rescue of the old lady of the Liu family!

"This villain, for his own selfishness, doesn't care about the lives of others at all! How can I make you proud! ”

Thinking of this, Ding Chenggong glanced at Song Qingshan with a smug face coldly, and asked quietly: "Is it really that difficult to weave flowers and straw?" ”

"This craft is the unique craft of his old Wang family!" The factory elder Wu explained with a wry smile: "It is said that it is still left over from the Qing Dynasty, and only men and women are passed on!" It's good now, his son didn't learn this craft, and when the old man fell ill, no one could do it! ”

"Who said that this little straw weaving craft can only be done by his family!" Ding Chenggong smiled disapprenously: "The world is so big, there are many people who can make this kind of thing!" ”

"Success, you mean, know someone who knows this craft?" Zhao Fanghua immediately became interested and asked seriously, "Who is it?" Hurry up and tell me her contact information, and when the road is opened, I will come to visit! ”

"This person is far away in the sky, close in front of him!" Ding Chenggong smiled slightly, and was about to say something more, but was interrupted by a sneer.

"You are really unashamed to say anything!" Song Qingshan sneered unceremoniously: "In this land of a hundred miles, we have contact with all the straw weaving artists with outstanding skills, and we have never heard of such a person as you!" ”

"Yes, this craft has always been regarded as a treasure by the old Wang family, and it is not passed on. Originally, we didn't know how much work we had done to Uncle Wang, and our mouths were about to wear out, and we begged him to bring a few apprentices, but he just refused! ”

The factory elder Wu said on the side: "Doctor Ding, you are only in your early twenties, and you grew up in the county seat, how can you have the opportunity to learn this kind of craft?" ”

"It's understandable that young people like to be in the limelight." Song Qingshan said: "But it's not good to brag and talk big!" ”

"Don't talk about it, today is a banquet for Dr. Ding on behalf of Secretary Liu, thank him for saving Secretary Liu's mother!" Zhao Fanghua saw Ding Chenggong being sneered at, and felt very uncomfortable, and hurriedly relieved him: "What do you keep talking about these things at work!" ”

As he spoke, Zhao Fanghua picked up his wine glass, stood up and smiled at Ding Chenggong: "Doctor Ding, I will toast another glass on behalf of Secretary Liu!" ”

"Don't drink the wine yet!" Ding Chenggong waved his hand and smiled confidently: "I Ding Chenggong has no other strengths, but I have one and never say big things!" ”

As he spoke, he stood up and said loudly: "Your sister Fanghua has helped me so much, and she has been so good to me, I will weave this carved flower gnature cage for you today." This wine, and I'll drink it when I'm ready! ”

"This is your kid who wants to embarrass himself, and you can't complain about my sister even if it affects you!"

Looking at Ding Chenggong's confident appearance, Song Qingshan, who was bent on making a fool of his competitor Zhao Fanghua, was secretly proud, and hurriedly stood up and said loudly: "Dr. Ding is so confident, you might as well show it in front of all of us, so that we can open our eyes!" ”

As he spoke, he instructed Director Wu: "Old Wu, hurry up and let people send the raw materials and tools needed for straw weaving, so that we can all witness Dr. Ding's superb craftsmanship!" ”

"I'll go!" Lao Wu has always been Song Qingshan's ironcore, and immediately trotted out!

"This stinky boy, I'm really angry!" Seeing that Ding Chenggong had to be strong, Zhao Fanghua couldn't help but glared at this bastard boy with resentment, and thought carefully about how to solve the siege for this stinky boy.

Soon, Director Wu came to the canteen with raw materials and a full set of tools.

"Come on, Dr. Ding, we'll wait to see you show off your skills!" Song Qingshan smiled proudly, handed a large bag of things to Ding Chenggong with both hands, and said in an encouraging tone: "Whether our batch of export orders can be delivered in time depends on yours!" ”

"I won't let you down!" Ding Chenggong took the tools and raw materials, and when he stepped aside, he weaved the grub cage.

As soon as he saw Ding Chenggong's skillful weaving of straw, Zhao Fanghua's heart that had been hanging finally let go. She immediately picked up a chair carefully, walked gently to Ding Chenggong's side, and said softly: "Come, sit down and make it up slowly!" ”

Looking at Zhao Fanghua's gentle and virtuous appearance, Ding Chenggong was full of warmth. He hurriedly took the chair and smiled knowingly: "Thank you!" ”

"No thanks, make it up slowly, don't get tired!" Zhao Fanghua smiled and stood quietly to the side to accompany Ding Chenggong.

Accompanied by Zhao Fanghua, a beautiful woman with a temperament, Ding Chenggong's fingers were smart, and he skillfully weaved the grub cage. A handful of ordinary wheat grass, under his careful weaving, soon turned into a beautiful, exquisitely made, unique openwork grasshopper cage!

"A genuine openwork gnather cage! Ah, I really didn't expect that the real straw weaving master is right in front of you! Director Wu immediately snatched the cage of the grasshopper, held it in the palm of his hand and looked at it carefully, and praised Ding Chenggong and said: "With a master craftsman like you, what else do I have to worry about." You just stay and be our chief craftsman! ”

"I'm here, what should I do with Fifth Uncle Wang, who has been working for you for so many years?" Ding Chenggong refused without hesitation: "I can't do this!" ”

"If you succeed, you don't want to put it on the shelf, do you have to be a sister to me?" Zhao Fanghua was extremely satisfied with Ding Chenggong's performance, and said sincerely: "We really need talents like you, stay!" ”

"Dr. Ding is from the city and a Chinese medicine doctor with superb medical skills, how can he stay in our poor countryside to work?" Song Qingshan looked at Ding Chenggong's favored appearance like the moon holding the moon, and smiled uncomfortably: "Don't force others!" ”

"Oh, Mayor Song, if you don't say it now, I'm not ashamed, dare to say anything?" Hearing Song Qingshan's sneering words, Ding Chenggong smiled unceremoniously: "Aren't you afraid that I will brag and talk big about you and be in the limelight?" ”

"This ...... How do you say that? Song Qingshan smiled awkwardly and said, "As long as you are willing to stay, I welcome you with both hands!" ”

Zhao Fanghua was very happy when she saw her old opponent eating deflated. Ding Chenggong, who has earned a lot of light for himself, is also becoming more and more satisfied. Looking at the eyes of my godbrother, in addition to gratitude, there is also a trace of appreciation.

However, for the sake of the overall situation of the town government, she still smiled and started the round: "Today is a happy day, not to mention those who are unhappy." If you succeed, you will give your sister a thin noodle, stay and help straw weavers get through this difficulty! ”

"How dare I not listen to my sister's words!" Ding Chenggong said with a smile: "I rushed to work overnight, personally led people to drive out this batch of goods, and I can also bring a group of apprentices out for you!" ”
