After work on Friday, Zhao Jiadi received a call from his rival Huang Ying when he went down the stairs, saying that he was invited to dinner at home, and Zhao Jiadi, who was in a hurry to go to Shanghai, had to explain the situation to the old principal first, and arrived at the provincial party committee compound that he was familiar with, and met a girl who had a relationship at Qi Shugensheng's party on the road, twenty-five or sixteen years old, wearing a sleeveless leopard print dress with ol temperament, her appearance was medium and upper, but her temperament was not bad. She carried two big bags of things, Zhao Jiadi went up to help carry a bag, sent her to a villa, and then returned the things, three or four minutes away The two chatted a little, Zhao Jiadi was shocked to realize that Huang Ying knew basically the things that this official daughter knew, such as zero score in English in the college entrance examination, stepping on shit luck in the national examination, the lame erhu, the Peking Opera that knows a little out of tune, German and Russian are a little stronger than English, the girl's surname is Zheng, her single name is Dan, and she talks tactfully, probably Zhao Jiadi looks harmless, is very unwary of this legendary figure who visits the provincial party committee compound every day, if she hadn't learned that Zhao Jiadi was rushing to Secretary Huang's house for dinner, she would have pulled him into the house to drink tea. Secretary Huang has roughly decided to retire to the National People's Congress for the next term, and the apex of this life will stop here, the old man has worked with the next big man in the capital who will take charge of the country after the first time, and has also run with a Politburo member in 11 provinces and municipalities in Zhejiang, not only for ordinary people out of reach, even if Zhao Jiadi thinks of this, he will be suspicious and admired in awe. After really working with Secretary Huang for a long time, Zhao Jiadi personally felt that the so-called feudal officials and national weapons officials are actually not very conspicuous in life, their speech is plain, there are few amazing words, and they will also talk about chasing some life dramas, and they will be pulled by their granddaughter to the happy base camp or if they are not honest, they will not be praised for their self-recommendation to cook and cook, and they will be chattered by the younger generations in the family to make fun of some small problems, such as at this moment, Secretary Huang at the dinner table was too narrow and prejudiced by Huang Ying's education for the post-90s, and Secretary Huang had to listen obediently. There is a rule in the Huang family, officialdom and politics will never be told to children, no matter how big the gossip or insider story, no one will mention it, probably to give Huang Ying's generation of children a relatively warm and good impression of the chéngrén world, anyway, Huang Ying is destined to not be able to endure great hardships in this life, why let her be exposed to those thrilling dark sides too early?

Secretary Huang was in a good mood today, made a few dishes with his own hands, sandwiched a Longjing shrimp and a piece of Dongpo meat for Zhao Jiadi, and said with a smile: "Jiadi, these two dishes are famous Hangzhou dishes, the shrimp are fried by me, and the Dongpo meat is Yingzi tinkered with more than two hours before it was put on the table. ”

Zhao Jiadi tasted it carefully and said seriously: "The shrimp is more flavorful." ”

Huang Ying, who should have scolded Zhao Jiadi for having no eyesight and no mouth, laughed unexpectedly and said to her grandfather: "Let you move a stone and hit yourself in the foot." Look, look, my cooking skills are better than you, and I've only been learning for a few days to compare you to you, you, you're not talented. ”

It turns out that shrimp is the masterpiece of the yellow warbler. Secretary Huang was not angry about Huang Ying's unconcealed mouth, but just smiled at Zhao Jiadi, this question, if you ask it differently, Zhao Jia's tenth will be embarrassed. Probably won the grandfather, Huang Ying was in a very good mood, and after the meal, she was the first to fight with Zhao Jia

Cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, in fact, she didn't make any moves, it was all Zhao Jiadi who was skillful there, she symbolized xìng to do a favor, and asked in a low voice Is it really delicious Longjing shrimp? Zhao Jiadi nodded. Huang Ying hesitated for a moment and asked, "Will you show your hands next time we have dinner at home?" Zhao Jiadi smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will overshadow you?" Huang Ying said generously It's okay, the main thing is that I can take the opportunity to steal the teacher, and you will be defeated by Miss Ben in a few times. Zhao Jiadi pouted and said Where do you get your confidence, just for knife work, you have to retreat and practice for seven or eight years before you can barely get out of school. Huang Ying crossed his eyebrows and said angrily, don't hit me positively, now the knife is close to me, be careful and practice you as soon as you miss! Zhao Jiadi put the dishes and chopsticks neatly into the cupboard, glared at the lawless Huang Ying, and said fiercely You are not my sister, otherwise I would have been hung up and beaten by me, or dragged to the corner and slapped twice. Huang Ying snorted coldly, kicked at Zhao Jiadi's calf, no light or heavy, Zhao Jiadi gasped and rewarded Huang Ying with a chestnut, Huang Ying, who had never been beaten in his life, ran away, like a wild xìng untamable kitten, opening his teeth and dancing claws, Zhao Jiadi looked at all sides and listened to all directions, and found out that Huang Ying would not sue, and had long wanted to teach this conscienceless girl a lesson, so he immediately clasped her hands with one hand, and flicked her forehead with the other hand. For a while, the kitchen was full of gunsmoke, Huang Ying was defeated and fought repeatedly, until her mother came in to wash the fruit, the two of them gave up, and squeezed out a smile to help, just like a pair of respectful and loving little couples, so that Huang Ying's mother who was in the dark was very pleased, and when she left, Zhao Jiadi and Huang Ying began to fight again, but Huang Ying made a fuss for a long time, and suddenly found that she was being beaten, and the bastard with no grace and no stomach had nothing to do. Zhao Jiadi immediately disarmed and surrendered, showing weakness and saying I'll let you kick it, don't hide? Huang Ying didn't care, there was a tendency for pear blossoms to bring rain, Zhao Jia gritted his teeth and said with two feet! Huang Ying is worthy of being an acting school, her little face is instantly sunny, and without saying a word, she kicked Zhao Jiadi's crotch, and Zhao Jiadi, who was scared out of a cold sweat, subconsciously reached out to hold the leg of this little bamboo Yeqing, only to find that there was no strength at all, it was purely scary, and he was just relieved, he was afraid that he would be stupid by the emergency, Secretary Huang, who saw this scene at the door, coughed, laughed and left, thinking that he didn't see it. Zhao Jiadi's wicked person sued first, and said angrily that you have been miserable now! Huang Ying, who was originally flushed, was angry when she heard this, and still maintained an indecent posture and shouted, "Are you embarrassed to say?! Zhao Jiadi let go of his hand, thinking that he was really lucky not to be beaten out of the door by Secretary Huang, should he explain? But I'm afraid that I will add to the snake, and I will want to come to the door in the future. Seeing Zhao Jiadi's cheap and obedient appearance, Huang Ying had the heart to kill, Zhao Jiadi knew that he couldn't stay here for a long time, slipped to the balcony facing the garden on the first floor, smoked a cigarette, Huang Ying's heel, Secretary Huang temporarily talked with Huang Ying's father in the upstairs study, and several women watched TV in the living room, and did not treat Zhao Jiadi as an outsider, so they did not deliberately greet politely. The compound of the provincial party committee gradually knew that there was such a young man surnamed Zhao in Secretary Huang's family. Zhao Jiadi glanced at Huang Ying, the biggest virtue of this Nizi is that there is no overnight grudge, and the biggest problem is the same, if there is a grudge, you must definitely take revenge, at this time Huang Ying's eyes are swirling, it should be looking for a weapon to give Zhao Jiadi a fatal blow, the broom is too light, Zhao Jiadi's skin is rough and thick, no lethality, the mahogany chair is too heavy, don't flash your small waist without mentioning it, Zhao Jiadi hurriedly persuaded Huang Ying, Huang Woman, don't toss it, okay? If you keep making trouble, I won't dare to come to your house in the future. Huang Ying smiled and said This is a good thing, without you, this house is clean. Zhao Jiadi shook his head and smiled bitterly. Huang Ying lowered her voice and said, what's wrong? Zhao Jiadi said seriously that in the future, I may have to work overtime in my unit, but I will definitely have to squeeze out time to go to Shanghai every weekend, so I won't give you make-up classes, so you should be happy, right? Huang Ying sighed, and there was no follow-up.

In the study, at the end of the conversation, Huang Ying's father, Huang Jianhua, was a little worried: "Does Yingzi have thoughts about Jiadi?" ”

Secretary Huang smiled and asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" ”

Huang Jianhua said helplessly: "It's not that the enemies don't get together, Yingzi is only in the first year of high school." ”

Secretary Huang, who didn't seem to care, joked: "In the past, Yingzi was close to the roots of the tree, and I didn't see you so worried. Huang Jianhua shook his head and said: "Yingzi has always regarded the roots of the tree as his brother, I can see it." Dad, did you see which boy Yingzi used to be so-for-tat? I'm afraid that she doesn't know her own thoughts, and one day she will come back to her senses, and it will be too late for anything. ”

Secretary Huang pointed to his son and said, "I'm worried." ”

Huang Jianhua said bitterly: "Dad, why are you so sure that Yingzi will be fine?" ”

Secretary Huang smiled and said: "Qing Chūn is a thunderstorm that can't be avoided, a little rain is not a bad thing, at most a few days of cold, let's not be sentimental to hold an umbrella for the children." Didn't we all come here like that? You are allowed to harm other people's daughters, and no one else is allowed to harm your girls? ”

Huang Jianhua was amused by his father's words, and his mood improved: "My daughter always has to protect it." ”

Secretary Huang said: "Okay, I'll check this matter." ”

Speaking of Zhao Jiadi, it is natural to be inseparable from the inextricably linked běijīng Li family, the old lady of the Li family, and Xu Zhen, who is almost enough to be self-contained, this son-in-law of the Li family, the storm set off in Zhejiang has drowned countless department-level senior cadres, Secretary Huang, as the Li family descendant with a clear label, has been a firm ally with Xu Zhenming in recent years, but inside, Secretary Huang does not agree with Xu Zhen's approach very much, and his private friendship is general, except for the early year of Xu Zhen's airborne landing in Zhejiang, the two have drunk tea and fished together a few times, In the future, they rarely meet, but once there is a big move, the two are still very tacit, and always maintain a high degree of consistency, the outside world knows that Xu Zhen can have today's scenery such as rì Zhongtian, and the personnel mainly rely on two people, Secretary Huang, who has been in charge of the Political and Legal Committee for many years, and Secretary Song of the Provincial Party Committee who took the initiative to vote for a certain team, after Secretary Huang retired, it was no surprise that the top surnamed Song, no longer served as the secretary general, but was promoted to the second deputy secretary of the provincial party committee. Song's current number one job is to open up the Chu River and Han realm with the newly ascended Li Tan, which is very lively, and makes the provincial party committee and the provincial party committee too addicted. Coincidentally, Zhao Jiadi, who is a small fish and shrimp, bumped into the first secretary of Zhejiang on the island after following Li Tan from the fourth provincial supervisor to the Xixi wetland, and Secretary General Song was accompanied by a man more familiar to Zhao Jiadi, Cai Gun, who was transferred from Shanghai, Cai Yanzhi's younger brother. The two sides passed by, without any greetings, but the eyes of the two supporting characters, Zhao Jiadi and Cai Gun, had a vague intersection. Zhao Jiadi remembered that it was very good, after learning the identity of the middle-aged man from Li Tan, he remembered that in the Vogue bar, the surname Song was next door, and he was sitting next to Fang Fei at that time, Zhao Jiadi thought about whether he could learn something from Fang Fei, knowing himself and knowing the other, not to mention winning, at least he didn't have to lose in a daze. After Zhao Jiadi came to Hangzhou, he hadn't contacted Cai Gun, so it seemed necessary to have a cup of tea together in private. In Zhao Jiadi's view, the reason why Song is so important to Cai Gun, in addition to Cai's own good ability, I believe that a large part of the reason is Cai Yanzhi behind Cai Gun, she can be like a fish in water in Shanghai, and even dare to call the Chen family face to face at the moment, its energy cannot be ignored, Zhao Jiadi even had a flash of inspiration, should Cai Gun have the opportunity to follow Song to kill a horse gun, return to Shanghai, and each climb to a new level? Or is it possible that Song's target was not the second deputy secretary of the provincial party committee? But? When Zhao Jiadi was on a boat on the outlying island, he told Li Tan about this idea, and the latter stared at Zhao Jiadi for a long time, and finally came up with a sentence: You kid has enlightened, the surname Song is now in a hurry to run to běijīng, he is busy running this, he and I are fighting here, it is all a trick. Zhao Jiadi muttered on the spot, these guys are all jīng. Li Tan laughed at it, and didn't seem to be afraid of the surname Song.

All weekend, Zhao Jiadi had to stay honestly in the old principal's house to open a small stove, before leaving on Sunday afternoon, after a vegetarian dinner, Jiang Shigen suddenly called Zhao Jiadi to the study, with a serious expression, and Zhao Jiadi asked for a cigarette for the first time, Zhao Jiadi didn't dare not give it, the old principal got straight to the point and said: "I didn't go to Jinhai to be a director, you know this, right?" ”

Zhao Jiadi nodded and said, "Listen to what Zhao Sanjin said." ”

The old principal spit out a smoke ring and said slowly: "Then do you know the Monetary Policy Committee of the Central Bank?" ”

Zhao Jiadi shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it." ”

The old principal took out a clip book from the table, in addition to the habit of reading newspapers and magazines regularly and quantitatively for decades, the old man also developed the habit of cutting and pasting useful information into the book, turned to one of the pages, and threw it to Zhao Jiadi, Zhao Jiadi took it and looked at it, looking at the time, it was almost a report of the "People's Daily" twelve or thirteen years ago, a brief explanation of the Monetary Policy Committee of the Central Bank, the old principal said softly The next few pages are all relevant reports in the next few years, the length is not long, but the aftertaste is long, you read it slowly. It took Zhao Jiadi about 20 minutes to read it, and the old principal smoked five or six cigarettes one by one, and the study was full of smoke for a while, Zhao Jiadi closed the book, and had a clear outline of the institution mentioned by the old principal, which includes the president of the central bank, the deputy governor of the Ministry of Finance, the director of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, the chairman of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, the chairman of the China Insurance Regulatory Commission and other financial heads of the committee has extremely high internal specifications, but it is extremely low-key externally. Everything related to monetary policy must be managed. The old principal snuffed out his cigarette butt and said softly: "The committee only set up one expert member 10 years ago, but last year it began to set up three, namely the dean of the National Development Research Institute of Běijīng University, the director of the Institute of Finance of the Development Research Center of the State Council, and the director of the China and World Economy Research Center of Tsinghua University, with a two-year term. To become an expert member, the requirements on paper are very high, work in the financial industry for more than 10 years, non-state civil servant, do not hold a position in any for-profit organization, etc., but the standard of truth is higher, Jiadi, you are my retreat disciple, you tell me what my strengths are, don't be sycophants, tell the truth. ”

Zhao Jiadi said without hesitation: "Comparative economics, institutional economics, and the study of economic transformation, you are recognized as the first person in China to study the budget constraint mechanism." ”

The old principal smiled lightly and lit a cigarette again, "I didn't change my election until one or two years, and now someone is greeting me and saying that I am ready to go to class in zhōngnánhǎi." ”

Zhao Jiadi tentatively asked, "Chen Jing?" ”

The old headmaster nodded.

Zhao Jiadi sighed: "Zhao Sanjin can really toss. ”

The old principal leaned back in his chair and said slowly: "According to the rules, the two places of the next expert committee will definitely be allocated to Peking University Tsinghua University, and there will be countless people fighting for the third candidate." By the way, Zhao Jiadi, have you ever heard of the 'Vision Cup' hosted by Securities Market Weekly? ”

Zhao Jiadi didn't think through this somewhat off-topic inquiry, he only heard about the vision cup of a small group of people in the financial circle to entertain themselves, and he was not familiar with it, so he said honestly: "I only know that the competition of this insider has a mixed reputation." ”

The old principal said softly: "Then you can go and learn more about it, because I plan to recommend you to participate in the competition next year, over the years, I have participated in four or five times, but I have not won a good position, it has always been a knot." The disadvantage of this Vision Cup is that to a certain extent, it is 'figuring out the capital Tianting', and those contestants who have the mind of the accurate statistical department are easy to win, and the rules of the Vision Cup conflict with the original intention of economic analysis, so it is difficult to convince the public. But I couldn't help but think about it, isn't this all your kid's strength, accepting apprentices and accepting apprentices, you have to receive some benefits, so you kid give me a jīng god, and if you can't win the first place for three consecutive years, you will roll me up and get out! ”

Zhao Jiadi, who was shocked, said with a bitter face: "Old principal, you don't accept apprentices like this!" ”

Jiang Shigen said angrily: "Remove the old words." ”

Zhao Jiadi was about to hand the old principal an apprentice's filial piety cigarette, and immediately put it back into the cigarette case.

The old principal didn't mind, took off his glasses, rubbed his temples, squinted and asked, "What do you think of Zhao Xin's trouble fooling me into the Monetary Policy Committee?" ”

Zhao Jiadi blurted out: "It's a good thing." ”

The old principal waited for a long time, but the result was gone, and he couldn't help but smile: "This is the end?" ”

Zhao Jia replied with a natural face: "It's over, or else?" ”

The old principal laughed angrily: "The upper beam is not right, and the lower beam is crooked." ”

Zhao Jiadi threatened: "When the time comes, you will be given the penultimate number one for three consecutive years, see where you put your old face!" ”

The old principal threw over a book, and Zhao Jiadi easily caught it.

An old man and a young man turned their heads to look at the door at the same time, in Zhao Jiadi's opinion, that graceful figure became more and more mature and delicious.

The old principal crossed the river and demolished the bridge and said: "I still have some work to do, Jiadi, you go to play a game of chess with Tanle and then go, she finally went home, you are a little conscious as a student." ”

Living room.

A good pair of chess pieces, two boxes of chess pieces, black and white, the sitting relationship used to be more ambiguous than the first ** but now it is a man and a woman who describe strangers.

It is not so much a game of chess, it is better to say that Zhao Jiadi is teaching Jiang Tanle to play chess, step by step, so as not to lose her face.

When he fell to the middle of the game, Jiang Tanle said softly: "You have walked a big dragon. ”
