Section 3

On Monday, she decided to go to the provincial capital, she wanted to find the young lady named Mai Rui, and there was no news from Ruiter so far, which made her very uneasy. Just when she lifted the phone to call the office, the mobile phone on the table rang, and the caller ID was Zhou Tieshan. Zhou Cang hesitated for a long time, but still connected to the phone. Zhou Tieshan said in a rough voice over there: "What, big sister, when you see it's me, don't you want to pick it up?" ”

Zhou Zhou didn't speak, she really didn't want to pay attention to Zhou Tieshan now, the matter of the desert reservoir, which made her faintly feel that Zhou Tieshan's person was dangerous! It's a pity that I didn't pay enough attention to him before, let alone understand him!

"Why, are you still angry about that? Don't worry, it's going to be fine, it's not going to be out for a week, the water will be transferred, the project, I promise, the problem that belongs to me, I don't need your eldest sister to speak, I will solve it myself. No matter what, I can't give your eldest sister a brick under her neck. Zhou Tieshan's tone was still so friendly, so he didn't take things seriously.

Zhou Cang is making a difficulty, to this person, to reason or not to ignore?

After a moment of stiffness, she stiffened her head and said, "Say, what are the instructions?" ”

"Big sister, you're killing me, I'm a grass people, how dare I give instructions to your mayor. There is no arrangement for the afternoon, I would like to treat you to a meal. Zhou Tieshan's voice was very exaggerated.

Zhou Zhou wanted to refuse, but he felt that he couldn't. Some people, some relationships, are really hard to deal with. This is also what she felt the most after arriving in Heyang, helpless, but full of challenges and temptations. In fact, the most difficult thing in this world is the relationship between people, you have to try to deal with different people, you have to learn to deal with different people. More importantly, you can't lose yourself in the process, and you can't be swayed by others. It's hard to do that! Zhou Zhou wanted to work hard to do it at the beginning, and he also wanted to resolutely refuse some temptations for this. But as a result, it was only today that she discovered that temptation is not something you can refuse if you want to, temptation is everywhere, it is not necessarily money, it is not necessarily sex, it does not even have to come from others. A thought, a desire, an ambition and a goal in your heart, once it is related to someone else's desire and goal, the temptation arises. Most of the time, she thinks that the temptation is in herself, and everyone has a trap deep in their hearts, and there is everything in this trap, it depends on whether you can control it. But if you really have to control it, your life will be bleak.

Now, she is standing on the edge of the trap, knowing that if she continues to associate with Zhou Tieshan, she will step on more traps, but she can't help but step on it.

People's footsteps are not originally self-controlled. Who made her always have a fire of desire surging in her body? Now let her let go of those goals, those ambitions, it is almost impossible.

Then she would have to take risks!

"Tell me, what?"

"How about 'Shanghai Tang', there are a few new dishes there, please try them."

"You can really eat, you know where the new dishes have been added." Zhou Zhou adjusted his mentality and started a fight with Zhou Tieshan.

"Of course I can eat it, don't you all say that my boss eats it, if I don't eat it, won't I live up to the high expectations of the leaders?"

Zhou Cang didn't say much and pressed the phone gently.

"Shanghai Tang" Restaurant is located on the twelfth floor of Zhejiang Building, the most lively cross in Heyang City. Zhejiang Tower was renovated four years ago, and by far it is the most modern high-rise building in Heyang. At that time, when this building was being built, four people died in Zhou Tieshan's construction company, which almost caused a lawsuit, which is said to have alarmed Qi Moran. At that time, Zhou Zhou was still in the province, but she had already heard of the name "Zhou Tieshan". By the time she arrived in Heyang, the Iron Mountain Construction Company had changed its name to the Iron Mountain Group, which was called the formation of an aircraft carrier, in fashionable terms. When the Iron Mountain Group was listed, Qi Moran came to the scene to cut the ribbon for it. The relationship between Zhou Tieshan and Qi Moran was quietly spread in society at that time.

This is a minefield, and Zhou Zhou has never wanted to touch it, and he has never dared to guess. She thought she could avoid this minefield, but now it seems that it is really a little difficult. Especially after the incident with the desert reservoir, she has involuntarily walked into this minefield.

Forget it, don't think about it, thinking will disrupt your steps.

On Monday, she came to "Shanghai Tang" on time, and the enthusiastic service lady led her to the Huangpu Hall, where Zhou Tieshan was already waiting. Seeing her, Zhou Tieshan stood up with a smile, this time he didn't call the eldest sister, but called the official title: "It is said that Mayor Zhou is a punctual person, and sure enough." ”

Zhou Zhou didn't pick up his stubble, glanced at the private room, and asked, "What about people, won't it be just the two of us?" ”

"How can others have enough to eat with the mayor?" Zhou Tieshan said, pulled a chair for her, and respectfully invited her to sit down.

Monday sat down calmly.

Zhou Tieshan didn't feel abnormal at all, or felt it, but pretended not to feel it. Who is Zhou Tieshan, 365 days a year, 300 days are spent inviting ** officials to dinner, and the remaining 60 days are spent accompanying the wives and sons of the officials. He not only ate an Iron Mountain Group, but also ate a skill. In his words, when officials grin at the dinner table, he knows what is wrong. With this martial art, he not only worked hard to create a well-known group company, but also won countless honors. At present, he is not only an outstanding entrepreneur in the country, but also a national ****, and last year he won the national "May Day Labor Medal", almost all of which he should enjoy.

It's so enjoyable! In the face of these honors and interests, what is the grievance, what is the cold face, is there less grievances and cold faces he has suffered? Sensei said that he gave him a cold face on Monday, even if Qi Moran gave it, he didn't care either!

He laughed heartily, waved to the door, and five fancy service ladies came. Now, it was Zhou Zhou's turn to be surprised, although she passed by a lot of scenes, and it was not the first time she had dinner with an entrepreneur, and she had seen more service ladies than she could count, but today, these five still shocked her.

She had a moment of distraction, no, a gaffe. When he realized that his eyes had been staring at the service lady for too long, he retracted it in shock, picked up the water cup, took a sip of water, and then forced himself to say lightly: "What are you doing, you want a beauty pageant?" ”

Zhou Tieshan smiled again: "Let the mayor enjoy the service here, and by the way, also give some valuable opinions so that we can improve." ”

Zhou Cang was frightened again, when did this place also belong to Zhou Tieshan? I had only heard that he had a good relationship with the boss here, but I didn't expect it to ......

Zhou Tieshan pretended to remember something suddenly: "I'm sorry, I haven't bothered to report to you, a month ago, I bought this place, from the seventh floor to the fifteenth floor, so that it is convenient to entertain guests." ”

Monday snorted. This sound sounds bland, but there is a lot of flavor in it.

From the seventh floor to the twelfth floor of Zhejiang Building, all of them are catering and entertainment, plus the hotel sauna on the twelfth to fifteenth floors, which is the most high-grade one-stop service in Heyang. Buying the ninth floor in one go, Zhou Tieshan's strength is not small.

"This is also called fertilizer and water does not flow into the fields of outsiders." She followed again.

"The mayor laughed at me, I wanted to buy Hehua Group, but you don't approve it, it's useless to put the money away, it's better to make a small fight for a while."

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Zhou Cang understood what the purpose of today's meal was.

The five young ladies were busy for a while, the tableware and tea sets were set up, they stood behind them with a smile, two waiters waited for one person, and the remaining one was waiting for Zhou Tieshan at any time. Zhou Tieshan gave the menu ordered in advance to Zhou Zhou Cang and asked her to take a look. Monday Cang glanced at it, and it was a simple six-course dish, with two bowls of porridge and two pastries. She thought to herself, this dish is worth a thousand to say the least. When the food came up, she was dumbfounded. Although she is the mayor, it is the first time she has seen such a luxurious and luxurious way of eating.

The first dish is called "Double Dragon and Phoenix", two tortoiseshell-colored eyes staring at a black chicken, its shape, its state, made vivid. The tortoise shells in Heyang are all dead tortoise shells, and even if there are living ones in individual hotels, there is only one breath left. Today's dish, the tortoise shell has obviously just been flown over, maybe a special car will be sent to wait at the airport, and it will be brought as soon as possible. Compared with the tortoiseshells of those big hotels in the south, it is not inferior at all. The black chicken surprised Zhou Cang even more. Of course, black chicken has been eaten on Monday, it is a big tonic, especially for women. But this black chicken is an authentic Jiangxi Taihe chicken. In today's era when everything loves to fake and everything loves to pretend, it is really a luxury to be able to eat Jiangxi Taihe chicken.

What's more extravagant, today's meal, you don't have to do it at all, if you are lazy, you don't have to open your mouth yourself, and the two young ladies behind you will feed you little by little. Zhou Cang seemed very unaccustomed at first, and it was really sadistic to let the family wait like this! But when I saw that Zhou Tieshan was eating deliciously, even the half-exposed crisp breasts of the service lady were attached to his face, and he didn't blush, nor did he shy away from it, he ate how he wanted, and he enjoyed it very much. She felt uncomfortable: I can't get rid of my little family's anger, don't you just have a meal, look at you nervous like this! Also, at this time, she also understood that in today's meeting, more or less, Zhou Tieshan had the motivation for her foreign appearance.

Thinking of this, she simply let go, handed herself over to the two little girls, and let them feed her, serve her, and give her a long life.

After two dishes, the service lady brought two glasses of chilled wine, not XO, the taste is much softer than XO, and the taste is relatively refreshing. Because the first two dishes are big supplements, Zhou Zhou felt a little hot on her body, and the soft bodies of the two young ladies had to rub against her from time to time, although she was a woman, she still had a strange feeling. She blushed and said half-truthfully: "Boss Zhou is worthy of being an elite, he will enjoy it, I am studying today." ”

Zhou Tieshan didn't care about the meaning of her words at all, and with the strength of the wine, he began to tell the truth: "None of us should be awkward, I said a long time ago, hundreds of years ago, we were a family, don't laugh at me for being rude, I'm a big old man, I'm used to it, I still think it's refreshing to call your eldest sister." ”

"It's hard to lift, it's hard to lift." I don't know why, the line of defense in Zhou Cang's heart slowly loosened, don't you say, the feeling of loosening is really unusual.

Zhou Tieshan continued: "I won't tell you, I invite you to come today, it's really something." ”

"Oh?" Zhou Cang looked up.

"Don't be nervous, it's still the same old thing, the river thing."

"Old things? Why haven't I heard? Zhou Cang said deliberately.

"Ouch, my eldest sister, you are pretending to be confused, who in Heyang doesn't know that I, Zhou Tieshan, am going to buy Hehua, if you pretend again, this meal will be boring."

"Oh, that's it, weren't you already buying, why did you remember to tell me about it now?" Monday Cang still has that tone that is not salty or light.

This tone made Zhou Tieshan anxious, and he said without thinking: "Don't mention this, if you mention it again, I will be killed by a head-on." ”

"Don't, you hit and died, I can't afford it, Heyang is still counting on you Boss Zhou to be well-off."

"Look, here we go again, isn't it? If you do so, I'll really jump off this floor. ”

The two of them fought with each other for a while, the complaints that should have been made, the sarcasm that should have been sarcastic, and the sarcasm was also sarcastic, and in Zhou Zhou's heart, he had somewhat regained some balance. In fact, in the past two years, what she hated the most was that Zhou Tieshan didn't treat her as a person, he ran to Qiang Wei for everything, and ran to the old man surnamed Song, and even sometimes he would rather beg Qiao Guodong than come to her. If a mayor is hung by the city's biggest entrepreneur, what should it be like?

Zhou Zhou Cang is by no means a saint, there are some things she can see, and some things she can't see, maybe the mayor can't do it.

"I'm afraid it's too late, Hehua Group is about to sign a contract, so you might as well find another project."

"Fuck it, he wants to be a traitor, I don't agree yet." As soon as Zhou Tieshan was excited, the truth was revealed. Maybe in his heart, he has treated Zhou Zhou Cang as his own person, and he doesn't need to pretend to be a dog anymore.

Zhou Cang doesn't care, if she still cares at this time, it seems that she is too unskilled. She waved her hand and motioned for the service ladies to go out, and Zhou Tieshan said no: "They don't have long ears, and those who do have ears won't stay with me." ”

Monday Cang reported with a light smile, did not dwell on this issue, a few little girls, it doesn't matter if you can't go out, stay, it is also a dish, which can make you feel better. She followed the original words and said, "What can you do if you don't agree? You weren't aiming for it at the beginning, but what happened? ”

In a word, the past is recalled again.

When Zhou Tieshan proposed to acquire Hehua Group, Zhou Cang had not yet arrived in Heyang, and this matter was once hyped up, and Zhou Tieshan proposed two plans to Heyang officials at that time, one is to acquire the whole line, re-evaluate assets, give preferential policies to the city, and resettle employees as a whole, and the debts will be borne by him. The second is to only acquire the core part, and the Iron Mountain Group will re-inject funds and start it with all its might, and strive to save Hehua within three years. The plan was brewed for nearly half a year and was voted by the staff meeting of Hehua Group. However, after entering the actual operation procedure, Qiangwei suddenly spoke to stop the acquisition and the working group withdrew. This matter immediately caused an uproar, Zhou Tieshan couldn't accept it, and asked Qiang Wei to question, Qiang Wei didn't explain anything, and played silent with Zhou Tieshan. Later, Zhou Tieshan reported the matter to the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial People's Congress, and Qi Moran, deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, asked Qiang Wei to understand the situation, and Qiang Wei said: "He sells fake drugs in my gourd, such a big company, I don't feel at ease when I hand it over to him." ”

"Then who do you give it to rest assured?" Qi Moran was very unhappy, he had already taken the Hehua Group as a model of reform at the work conference on the restructuring of state-owned enterprises held by the provincial party committee, and Qiang Wei's move was tantamount to removing him from power.

"Secretary Qi, Comrade Tieshan may not be telling you the truth, as far as I know, his real intention in acquiring Hehua Group is to get that piece of land."

"Which piece?"

"It is the main factory area of Hehua Group."

Qi Moran was silent for a while, and said: "He acquired Hehua, and of course the land of Hehua is his, why can't I understand what you say?" ”

Qiang Wei didn't explain again, he had already said it very clearly, he believed that Qi Moran also heard it very clearly, the reason why Qi Moran pretended to be confused was just that he didn't want him to speak more clearly.

Sure enough, Qi Moran pondered for a while and said: "Okay, the provincial party committee does not intervene in this matter, in principle, it is still the same sentence, the autonomy of enterprise reform is in the hands of enterprises, and it only plays a guiding and regulating role." Don't be too arbitrary, and listen to the opinions of the staff meeting. ”

This matter then entered a cold treatment, and Zhou Tieshan, who was looking for leaders everywhere to complain, also shrank his head and was no longer so public. But another piece of news spread far and wide. The provincial party committee wants to transfer Qiang Wei and let him work in the political research office. Some people even said that Qi Moran made a speech at the meeting, and he would change people without changing his thinking. Half a year later, Heyang's team was greatly adjusted, and unexpectedly, the provincial party committee did not move Qiangwei, but moved Old Man Song and let him rest completely. On Monday, he came to Heyang to replace the former mayor, who was most active in the Hehua takeover case. It is reported that this is the result of the contest between Gao Bo and Qi Moran of the provincial party committee, and it is also the result of the neutralization of the two people.

Who knows, the things at the top, the clouds in the sky, are always in flux. But one fact is that Zhou Tieshan's hopes of acquiring Hehua were dashed, and Hehua Group started with difficulty after applying for a loan again.

"It was the beginning, and now it is now, I don't believe that his surname is strong enough to sit through the ground of Heyang. It's urgent, so he can't do it for a day in Heyang! Zhou Tieshan said indignantly.

Hearing this, Zhou Zhou knew that she couldn't say this anymore, and if she continued to say it, she would make a mistake. Some mistakes are worth making, and some are not. "Eat vegetables, eat vegetables, don't talk too much, such a good dish, don't eat it and waste it."

The two of them ate for three hours, and after eating, with the strength of the wine, Zhou Tieshan deadlifted Zhou Cang to go downstairs to the performing arts city to sit down, how could Zhou Cang give him another chance, under the pretext that he was drunk, he couldn't do it, and he escaped from Zhou Tieshan's hospitality.

The next day she came to the provincial capital, and Miss Mai Rui also came from Xi'an. Seeing her, Mai Rui was a little nervous, Mai Rui shouldn't have been like this, but unfortunately, something happened in advance between her and Zhou Yicang, and she promised Zhou Zhou Cang to contribute to this matter. Afraid that Zhou Zhou would question, Mai Rui took the lead and said, "I'm sorry, Mayor Zhou, I'm not in the country these days, so I didn't contact you in time." ”

Zhou Cang smiled, she didn't need to be angry with Mai Rui, and it was not time to question her. There is a principle in doing things on Monday, how much you pay, how much you have to return, and the time for repayment can be a little later, but you can't lie to her. If it is scammed, it may be another outcome.

"It's okay, I've been very busy lately, and there are new projects in the market, which are also big investments, so I have all my energy to stay up there."

"Really?" Mai Rui was a little surprised, but he didn't expect Zhou Cang to bring such a news. "Can you tell me a little bit, Sister Zhou?" She couldn't help but ask. This may be a professional habit, as soon as she hears about the project, she is tempted and wants to understand. She changed the affectionate name between the two women, and there was a longing in her eyes.

"You little girl, you want to know everything." Monday Cang was disgusted, and changed the topic: "How is the cooperation going on over there?" There has been no news for so long, but it's not Ritter's style. ”

Mai Rui hurriedly said: "I am preparing a plan, and when I came, the plan had not yet been come out." ”

Monday let out a sigh and swept her gaze over Mai Rui's face unnoticed, she felt that the little girl was lying.

"What will change?" She asked.

"It's hard to say for the time being, the key depends on how the board of directors thinks about it." Mai Rui's eyes fluttered, and he was also spying on Zhou Zhou's thoughts, and as soon as the two talked about business, they both hid their heads and tails, as if they were playing a game.

"What about Mr. Ouyang, what did he say?" Monday asked further.

"This ......" Mai Rui was embarrassed, she was afraid that Zhou Zhou Cang would ask about Ouyang, but Zhou Zhou Cang would ask about him.

Zhou Cang's gaze froze on Mai Rui's face for a few seconds, and then he smiled and said, "Forget it, since it's inconvenient to say, I won't ask." ”

"That's not what you mean, Sister Zhou, don't think so." Merry was obviously at a disadvantage in terms of experience, so Zhou Zhou was flustered with a few words, "Okay, why don't I talk to him again in the evening and hear what he has to say?" ”

"Why do you have to wait for the evening, it's not a good habit to always call someone else's husband at night." Zhou Cang sounded like he was joking, but the weight of this sentence was too heavy, and Mai Rui's face changed immediately, and he stared at Zhou Cang in surprise. Zhou Zhou took out the makeup mirror from Kun's bag and made up lipstick for himself very seriously.

"That'...... I'm ...... now Call him? ”

"Forget it, I'm kidding you, you don't need to be in a hurry. Say, where do you want to play today, Sister Zhou will accompany you. "Zhou Cang has completely lost the mayor's style at this time, but she really looks like a considerate and gentle big sister.

"No...... No need, Sister Zhou, you are a busy person, how dare you delay your time. ”

"Why delay or not, Sister Zhou just wants to talk to you more this time, let's go, take you to a fun place."

On this day, Zhou Cang almost used coercive means, whether Mai Ruile was happy or not, he forced her to turn around several places. Gold stores, fashion shopping malls, ** city, etc., buy a bunch of gifts for Mai Rui everywhere. Merry didn't dare to accept it, but she couldn't refuse, and later, she wanted to leave her and run away. Finally, on Monday, she took her into a men's boutique and bought a tie for 3,000 yuan and a crocodile belt for more than 5,000 yuan. Merry looked at her curiously, not understanding what she was doing with these two gifts. Zhou Yi smiled and said: "Women have to learn to buy gifts for their beloved men, although the money is not much, but they can give it away, take it, I think he will like it." ”

Mai Rui's face turned red, lowered his head, and muttered, "Sister Zhou......"

"Don't worry, Sister Zhou doesn't know anything, as long as she gets things done, Sister Zhou won't tell anyone."

Mai Rui's face was not only red, but in an instant, it changed into a variety of colors, and what was later presented on her face was a kind of paleness and a kind of prostration. Only then did she realize how difficult it was to get rid of some relationships that she shouldn't have.

She said goodbye to Zhou Cang weakly, carrying a lot of things, and walked back like a refugee.

Mai Rui's family conditions are not good, born in the countryside, her father is sick all the year round, and her mother worked hard to support her and her younger brother to finish college. When Merry was admitted to graduate school, he once met a man who was a small businessman in his forties, who did not have much money, but had a good heart. Mai Rui lived with him for three months, and then separated, and the man gave her a sum of money as compensation for her. Relying on this money, Mai Rui finished graduate school with difficulty, and at the domestic job fair of Ruiter Company, she met Ouyang Moqian. Since then, her life has begun to embark on the fast lane, first in Shenzhen company for a year, then to Shanghai, and then abroad for more than half a year of internship, knowledge and vision have increased a lot, plus she is smart and studious, and has a good quality of hardship, in a company like Ruiter, as long as you are willing to work hard, there will continue to be a platform for you to play. Of course, Mei Ruineng is inseparable from Ouyang Moqian's secret cooperation, and the two of them have a relationship that is difficult to sort out. These were originally secrets, and they couldn't see the light, they thought they were hiding it well, but unexpectedly, they still didn't hide it from Zhou Zhoucan's eyes.

This woman is so spicy!

There was a wave of horror in Merry's heart.
