When the person who spoke revealed his true face, Li Yuanlang breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out to be Wu Hongli. She happened to be at her cousin's house, and she said: "The rice is coming."

Wu Hongli put on a straight face, pretending to be a member of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, looked at the things sent by Li Yuanlang with her hands behind her back, and nodded frequently: "Well, these things are not expensive, are there any banknotes hidden in them?" ”

Wu Hongjuan gently pushed her and said, "Hongli, don't be a ghost, Yuen Long is not an outsider." ”

"Haha." Wu Hongli couldn't hold back her laughter, the flowers and branches trembled, and the most prominent place on her body trembled non-stop.

"Sister Wu, I thought you were transferred to the Commission for Discipline Inspection to work, and the whole thing just now really looks like a cadre of the Commission for Discipline Inspection." Li Yuenlong also joked with her. Originally, they were familiar with each other, and the relationship was good, so it was normal to make jokes.

Jin Sheng had just come out of the living room at this time, and beckoned Li Yuanlang to enter the study to speak.

Wu Hongjuan withdrew after making tea and talked to her cousin about knitting skills. Jin Sheng and Li Yuanlang didn't talk much, what should have been said had already been said, Jin Sheng just reminded Li Yuanlang that in the current environment of Shuiming Township, he must be cautious and cautious, be careful and be careful, and he doesn't want him to become the second Ji Tianhou and be driven out of Shuiming Township.

The two smoked a cigarette, and Li Yuanlang got up to say goodbye. Jin Sheng sent him to his doorstep and casually asked how Golden Week was arranged.

According to the plan, Li Yuenlong will accompany his father to have a reunion dinner at noon tomorrow, and he will go to Yunyang in the afternoon. This time it was Shui Qingzhang's idea, if it was convenient for Li Yuenlong, he could go to his house at night to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Shui Tingyue was naturally happy, Gu Hongyan saw that her daughter's body was getting better day by day, and her heart was like a mirror, this was all the credit of Li Yuanlang, without his acquaintance with Lang Yingxuan, there would have been no Lang Yingxuan personally dispensing medicine for her daughter, and Shui Tingyue would not have gotten better so quickly.

She didn't say thank you, but she didn't raise any objection to Shui Qingzhang's invitation to Li Yuanlang to come to her house for the holiday.

Bidding farewell to Jin Sheng, Li Yuanlang walked to Wang Zumin's house, they all lived in the compound of the Standing Committee, Jin Sheng and Wang Zumin's house were not far apart, a few steps away.

Xu is secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection should be used to it, Wang Zumin saw Li Yuanlang carrying something in his hand, and immediately said with displeasure: "Yuen Long, this is not good, it is not welcome to come to my house with gifts." ”

Li Yuanlang smiled and said: "Minister, I bought the moon cakes and * from the supermarket, more than 200 yuan, this box of tea was given by a friend, and walking around between relatives and friends is not a gift." If you really don't want to go, send me some tobacco leaves in a while, but I heard that the minister's hometown is rich in yellow tobacco. ”

"You Yuen Long, come to me here to fight the autumn wind. Yes, someone from my hometown brought me some good tobacco leaves, and I will share half of it. Wang Zumin turned from anger to joy, and only people close to him would ask for a gift in return, which shows that Li Yuanlang did not treat him as an outsider, so he was naturally happy.

The two of them sat on the sofa, smoking the high-grade yellow cigarettes from Wang Zumin's hometown, not to mention, the taste was pure and very strong.

The leaves of this yellow smoke are large and thick, with strong color, fine tissue, good elasticity, sufficient oil, and strong aroma. After processing, honey and pure grain liquor are sprayed on the tobacco, dried and dried, and the taste is mellow and soft, and ready-made boxed cigarettes are incomparable.

Between the clouds and mist, Wang Zumin asked Li Yuanlang how he felt during his time in Shuiming Township, and Li Yuanlang answered truthfully one by one. Including the current situation of Shuiming Township, as well as the education department he is in charge of, subject to the shortage of funds, and still owes two months' salaries to the teachers in the township, it can be said that the future is full of thorns and difficulties.

Wang Zumin deeply understood Li Yuanlang's hardships and also talked about his views. Standing from different angles, Wang Zumin helped Li Yuanlang analyze: "The root of Shuiming Township lies in Ma Shengran, who has been in charge of Shuiming Township for a long time, forming gangs and factions to form a deep-rooted local force. It is not in keeping with our organizational principles that a cadre has been working in one place or one position for too long. However, as you know, the previous leaders of the county party committee did not have the idea of transferring him, and even proposed to promote him to be deputy county magistrate and join the Standing Committee, but Ma Shengran did not agree. The reason why he dared to contend with the county party committee and ignored the decision of the county party committee was because he had a backer in the province, and often when there was a storm in the county, a phone call from the province turned into a futile task. Therefore, if Shuiming Township wants to develop and have a big change, Ma Shengran's stumbling block must be removed. ”

It is rare for Wang Zumin and Li Yuanlang to speak so thoroughly and directly, and they also said all the heartfelt words, Li Yuanlang was very moved.

Taking another deep puff of cigarette, Wang Zumin sighed deeply and said: "For this matter, I have also communicated with Secretary Fang, and I have also had an in-depth discussion with County Magistrate Jin, to be honest, it is difficult." In addition to being paternalistic and arbitrary, Ma Shengran did not find any problems in the economy and other aspects, and the reason for wanting to move him was not sufficient. What's more critical is that Secretary Fang, County Magistrate Jin, and I do not have this confidence, and they are worried that like the previous county leaders, they will be under pressure from the province, and in the end, the bamboo basket will be empty, which will fuel Ma Shengran's arrogance. ”

"So, Yuen Long, at present, it seems that this state of Shui Ming Township may continue for a while, and you must also be prepared to fight a protracted war." Wang Zumin showed a helpless look on his face, which also sprinkled a thick layer of grass ash on Li Yuanlang's heart, three words: suffocated.

Bidding farewell to Wang Zumin, Li Yuanlang drove to Zheng Haiyang's house again. Zheng Haiyang is a member of the Standing Committee of the county party committee, but he does not live in the compound of the Standing Committee.

The area is still in accordance with the treatment of the two-story small building where the Standing Committee members live, and the entire three-story building connects the two residents, adding up to more than 200 square meters, which is very spacious, and the decoration is also simple and elegant.

Unexpectedly, it was Zheng Haixin who opened the door, the beautiful boss of Guangnan Haixin Tea Art, and Li Yuanlang had a relationship with her. The picture of Zheng Haixin dressed in white and caressing the guzheng has been lingering in Li Yuanlang's mind.

Zheng Haixin was not shocked, she recognized Li Yuanlang, her expression was calm, and she said lightly: "You are here." "It feels more like old acquaintances to outsiders, even though they're only meeting for the second time.

Li Yuanlang smiled and nodded at Zheng Haixin, asking if her brother Zheng Haiyang was at home.

"He's drinking tea in the living room, you're just in time, and he's worried that no one will play chess with him." Zheng Haixin still wore a set of white clothes and white pants, showing off her graceful figure perfectly.

She speaks softly and softly, and her unique temperament gives people a feeling that she is not close to, really like a fairy in the world, who does not eat fireworks in the world.

Somehow, Li Yuanlang always couldn't let go in front of Zheng Haixin, and he was very cramped and nervous.

followed Zheng Haixin to the living room, and along the way, Li Yuanlang smelled a unique fragrance exuding from Zheng Haixin's body, which was by no means a perfume smell. He was very strange, Zheng Haixin didn't wear perfume, how could there be a fragrance on his body? It's still floral.

Zheng Haiyang had a Go board in front of him, holding a sunspot in his hand, and he played two corners of the game, and he seemed to be having a lot of fun.

"Yuen Long, come over and accompany me to the next game." When Zheng Haiyang saw Li Yuanlang, it was like seeing a big savior, dragged him to sit opposite, and asked Li Yuanlang whether he liked to use white or black seeds.

Li Yuanlang smiled bitterly, his Go skills were really not good, and he played backgammon as he played. Zheng Haiyang didn't mind, so he said: "It's okay to play backgammon, you accompany me in the next game, and my family doesn't dare to play with me, because my chess skills are too good to win against me." ”

Who knows, as soon as his words fell, Zheng Haixin, who was making tea and pouring water on the side, revealed the old bottom, "Brother, how old is a person, don't panic when you lie." It's not that we don't play with you, it's that your chess skills are too stinky, and if you lose once you play, no one will be embarrassed to win you, and the price will drop. ”

"Hai Xin," Zheng Haiyang pointed to the kitchen and said, "You go and prepare some fruit with your sister-in-law, don't get in the way of me and Yuen Long playing chess here." ”

Sending Zheng Haixin out, Zheng Haiyang said while placing the chess pieces: "This game of chess pays attention to a strategy, such as Go, to put it bluntly, it is to occupy the territory, the key is how to occupy the most advantageous position, how to win the most." There are ten points in the essence of Go, greed cannot win, entry into the realm should be slow, attack the other and take care of me, abandon the son to be the first, give up the small and the big, must give up in danger, be careful not to be light, move accordingly, he is strong and self-protective and the situation is lonely. As long as you master the above, you can ensure that everything is safe and successful. ”

Seeing Zheng Haiyang talking about the truth, Li Yuanlang wondered, how could he always lose?

Next, Zheng Haiyang preached backgammon: "The trick of backgammon is much simpler, emphasizing the first hand to attack, the second hand to defend, to attack for defense, to defend for attack." Switch between offense and defense, think carefully about changes, fight first, and break the ground. Defend the external potential, attack and gather internal strength, gossip is easy to defend, and it is easy to attack at angles. ”

Zheng Haiyang said so much, Li Yuanlang touched his chin and pondered, he was talking about chess and talking about the chess game, but he was actually teaching philosophy of life and philosophy.

One of them, Li Yuenlong understands that it is urgent not to be impatient, what cannot be rushed, to consider the whole picture, to consider both the disadvantages and the positives, so as to achieve a fatal blow and a complete victory.

This Zheng Haiyang, in addition to studying the "Book of Tea" all day long, does not read "Chess Books", seems to be a master of the world who does not listen to things outside the window and only reads the books of sages and sages. In fact, he integrated these things into the philosophy of life in the officialdom, entertaining himself while also bringing taboos and warnings to himself.

The words "remember not to be dry" are not exactly the encouragement given to him by these three people when he visited the three bigwigs of the county party committee tonight!

accompanied Zheng Haiyang to play a few games of backgammon, winning and losing each other, regardless of victory or defeat. Li Yuanlang saw that it was not early, so he got up at the right time to say goodbye.

When Zheng Haiyang sent him out, he saw the gift brought by Li Yuanlang by the way, and he didn't care about anything else, but the box of cooked Pu'er aroused his great curiosity.

I took it in my hand and smelled it, and praised it again and again: "Good tea, really good tea, it must be a new product this year, Yuen Long, I have a heart." ”

Li Yuanlang was polite and told him that the tea was sent by someone else, not a famous tea, and the taste was okay when he drank it, thinking that Minister Zheng liked tea, so he sent it to try it.

"Great, I'll try it in a moment. Yuen Long, knowing the door, will often come to sit in the future. Regardless of Li Yuenlong's excuse, he must send him a few boxes of tonic for him to accept.

couldn't resist Zheng Haiyang, Li Yuanlang had no choice but to obey his fate, carrying things downstairs, standing downstairs and remembering that Su Fangwan happened to live in this courtyard, but it was not in the same building, and he didn't call, so he went straight to Su Fangwan's house.

knocked on the door for a long time and didn't respond, he thought that no one at home was about to leave, but suddenly the door opened, and Su Fangwan appeared in front of him wearing an apron and holding a rice shovel.

Li Yuanlang looked at the situation in the room through Su Fangwan's back, it didn't matter if he didn't look at it, he was stunned when he saw it.
