Chapter Eighty-Six: Cousin
At this time, it was the time for the lunch break, and the two of them returned to Chen Ruo? Dormitory pours ※
After entering the house, Chen Yang asked, "Ruonan." I remember that the director of your department was not an old man surnamed Li? ”
"Director Li was transferred to the trade union, and I heard that it seemed to have offended President Tian, and later Zeng Linguo was transferred to our teaching and research department. This Zeng Linguo is annoying, and he cares about the damage to our teaching and research department all day long, so he knows how to pat the principal's ass. It's still the previous Director Li who is easy to talk to. Chen Ruonan replied while taking off her shoes, and the Zeng Linguo in her mouth was Director Zeng.
Chen Yang was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect that the university campus was so not pure, it was said that the old man Li was also a colonel officer, and in front of a general like the principal, it was useless.
Then he asked: "Ruonan, I said that you have been in school for a long time, why don't you say that you will improve, don't you need to look at other people's faces when you become the director yourself?" Besides, a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. ”
Chen Ruonan laughed at him: "I'm not like you." If it weren't for my mother saying that I was too idle to stay at home, I wouldn't have bothered to teach. He added, "If I really want to be a petty official, just go to my grandfather's house and talk to my second uncle." ”
"Can the second uncle take care of your little things?" Chen Yang said strangely, and asked again, "Isn't the second uncle in the Chengdu Military Region?" Has he been transferred back to Yanjing? He remembered that Chen Ruonan's second uncle, Li Huaqiang, had been awarded the rank of major general the year before last, and had been the deputy chief of staff of the Chengdu Military Region before.
Chen Ruonan arrived at a cup of warm water and handed it to Chen Yang. Then he replied, "Well, I came back in August this year." Now in the General Staff now. ”
"Second uncle won't go to the General Staff to be some kind of military-level researcher, right?" Chen Yang followed and asked. If you go back to the General Staff Officer, you should be one. Idle posts are really not as affordable as being deputy chief of staff in a military region. And he knew that his second uncle Li Huaqiang's personality was too upright, although the army was not as complicated as the place, but it was the second uncle's temperament. It's also very easy to offend people. But it seems that several brothers and sisters of the Li family are similar. During the Chinese New Year, I heard my adoptive mother say that the commander of the People's Military Region called his grandfather to sue him, as if he was saying that his second uncle Li Huaqiang had offended people, and I don't know if his transfer back this time was related to the events of the previous year.
"I don't know the specifics, it doesn't seem to have been decided yet, in short, the general staff is waiting now." Chen Ruonan smiled proudly as he spoke, "Chen Yang." You don't know, just two days ago, when my second uncle followed Vice Chairman Zhang to our school to inspect the work, he praised me. ”
Chen Yang sweated. What's the use of praise? Why don't you get something affordable?
"By the way, Ruonan, do you still have classes in the afternoon?"
Chen Ruonan was stunned for a moment, and when they were eating before, they didn't mention today's birthday, thinking that Chen Yang had an arrangement, so he glanced at Chen Yang and replied, "There are two classes, what's wrong?" ”
"It's nothing, it's just that I want to go to the Ministry of Finance in the afternoon, and last week the money in our development zone was stuck, saying that the budget document can't pass the review of the Ministry of Finance."
Chen Yang's trip back to Yanjing was for the second phase of the development zone.
The first phase of the fund to build an industrial park has been almost spent. Originally, according to Jige. The second phase of the funds will be allocated in a year, but the plan cannot catch up with the changes, and he did not expect that the development zone will attract so many enterprises at once, and they are all large-scale factories, although the land is still surplus. But at the current pace of development, it will soon be insufficient.
He didn't want to be in a hurry when things were about to happen. simply advanced the plan for the second phase of the development of the southern foot of Xinzhuang by half a year. But it was the old town, and a few streets were populated by residents. If the private residential buildings really want to be moved, there is no money to do it. However, after his budget report was typed, there was no problem with the Planning Commission, but the Ministry of Finance was firmly stuck, and replied that it was a tight budget, and the Ministry of Finance had been shrinking its budget for the past two years, and all localities were reaching out to ask for money. Chen Yang's development difference is that he got the money in advance. It would be nice to be able to allocate the money according to the original calculation.
No, he immediately left for Yanjing after receiving the reply, hoping to dredge up the relationship. That's what the government does, whether it's there or not. That's a lot of efficiency, or else. Local governments will no longer spend those unjust money every year to set up offices in the capital.
And Chen Ruonan understood as soon as he heard it: "You want to go to your cousin for help?" But he was faintly disappointed in his heart, and asked him what he was doing when he came back? He also said in a secretive way that he would talk about it after eating. I thought there would be a surprise, but I didn't expect this person to really come to do something.
"Well, Li Aiguo, isn't he in the budget department? I don't know if he deliberately stuck me. Chen Yang pouted. Then why don't you go to him yourself, and why do you pull me in? ”
"I don't have a good relationship with your cousins. Also, you don't remember. One year, during the Spring Festival, I even had a fight with him. He didn't hold a grudge against me for this. ”
"Cut, how many years have it been Chen Ruonan said disdainfully, "My cousin is not the kind of person you imagined, and he still declares personal vendettas, you can figure it out."
"Okay, forget if you have a class, I'll go to him by myself in the afternoon, I still don't believe it, he won't give me any face, if it doesn't work, I'll let my mother tell him." Chen Yang hurriedly blocked Chen Ruonan's words. took out a cigarette net and ordered one, but he didn't want to, but was snatched by Chen Ruonan: "It's not impossible for me to ask for a leave to help you intercede, but you have to promise me a condition first."
Chen Yang was stunned for a moment and asked, "What conditions?" ”
"That's it" Chen Ruonan frowned and thought for a while, "Forget it, I haven't thought about it yet, you promise me first, and I'll tell you when I'm ready." ”
Chen Yang was speechless for a moment, how old are they. Still playing this?
I remember that when I was in college, I seemed to have a time when I bet with her that the Chinese team would win, but I was firmly pitted by the Chinese football team, and the conditions she put forward after winning were very strange. is to let myself accompany her to Vietnam during the winter vacation. But when he got on the train, he knew that all the gossip girls who went to Chen Ruonan's dormitory, and he was a man, but he didn't even get out of the train station when he arrived in Pingxiang, so he bought a ticket and came back. Later, Chen Ruonan felt that he was not keeping his word and was angry. I hadn't spoken to him for half a year.
But now he is begging someone to do something, so his posture is lowered, so he nodded and replied casually: "That's it, but we have to speak first, it must be something I can do, don't say that my speech doesn't count when the time comes." ”
Chen Ruonan giggled: "You can rest assured." I have nothing to do with you. ”
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Yang drove Chen Ruonan to the Ministry of Finance.
The Ministry of Finance is rich, and from the outside, the building is tall and majestic, and it is very magnificent. It is indeed it
After a strict investigation by the armed police, the two went up to the sixth floor and found Li Aixian's office.
Li Aiguo is the eldest son of the second uncle Li Huaqiang mentioned above, and the people of the Li family basically work in the army, only this Li Aiguo is different. After graduating from Tsinghua University, he directly entered the Ministry of Finance, and after going around in various flow departments under the Ministry of Finance, he is now the deputy director of the Budget Department of the Ministry of Finance.
Li Huaqiang married earlier than his sister Li Duanyu. In the past, there was no talk of late marriage and late childbearing, Li Aijun is thirty-three years old this year, and he can become a deputy director with real power at his age, and his family background is obviously a very important factor. If it were someone else, I am afraid that I would never reach his level in my life. Of course, the situation in ministries and commissions is different from that in local areas, and it is not uncommon for cadres in their thirties to be at the deputy department level. If only he was in the same place as Chen Yang. That's a lot more eye-catching.
However, no matter what kind of unpleasantness Chen Yangyi had with him, he was still the cousin of the two.
Unfortunately, when the two arrived, Li Aiguo was not in the office.
After asking the secretary, I learned that Vice Premier Fang came to the Ministry of Finance today for an on-site office meeting, and all cadres at and above the department level went to the conference room for a meeting. Then the secretary was a little impatient and told him that he could not enter the director's office without an appointment.
It's also to blame him for coming in a hurry and not calling Li Aiguo in advance, but now he caught up with the other party's meeting.
So Chen Yang handed the work card to the secretary, who knew that the female secretary would return it to him with a casual glance, and then it was still the same caliber as before, and it was only counted if it was an appointment or an order from the director.
Chen Yang is a deputy department-level cadre, at the same level as the director, and he is also a figure at the local level. But in ministries and commissions, there are many department-level cadres such as inspectors, and his work card is really nothing. It's no wonder that the secretary can't look at it. Sometimes, you may not be as good as a department-level cadre, but you may not be as good as a section chief of a department with real power.
The two were embarrassed to reveal the identity of Director Li's relatives, so they could only go down to the first floor again, find a place in the lobby and wait.
This sitting is more than a bell fork, Chen Ruonan has never run to the ministry and commission, has suffered from others, and several times he was impatient and wanted to pager Li Aiguo, but was stopped by Chen Yang.
Fortunately, just when Chen Yang was about to lose his life, there was a sudden bustle outside.
Looking through the huge floor-to-ceiling glass window, more than a dozen people came out of the small building opposite. They are all dressed in formal attire, and they are all high-ranking cadres at first glance. The person at the head happened to be Vice Premier Fang.
To be honest, it was the first time for Chen Yang to see Vice Premier Fang's real person at such a close distance, and he used to see this party and state leader only on the news.
Vice Premier Fang is almost in his 60s this year. But it seems to be energetic, and the person also seems to be polite.
Not to mention, I didn't feel much on TV before. But since he got to know Fang Yi and Fang Chai as a brother and sister, now Chen Yang takes a closer look, and the brother and sister really look very similar to Vice Premier Fang.
Fang Qing is his youngest daughter, forty years old and a daughter, he is naturally very precious, no wonder Fang Qing has developed such a stingy character.
Chen Yang found that there were several men in suits around Vice Premier Fang. He knew that these seemingly inconspicuous men in suits were actually Zhongnanhai's top bodyguards.
"Chen Yang, do you see, that's your father of Secretary Fang of Jiaozhou."
Chen Yang was startled and turned his head to look at Chen Ruonan.
"Look at what I'm doing, the third uncle took the initiative to tell me, I'm not so bored to inquire about you." Chen Ruonan refused to admit it.
Chen Yang and the others were sitting near the window, and they didn't know if Vice Premier Fang saw him, of course. Even if you see it, you probably won't know which onion and garlic he is.
Seeing Vice Premier Fang and his entourage leave the Ministry of Finance compound, it didn't take long for Chen Ruonan's pager to ring.
You don't need to look at it to know that it was her cousin Li Aiguo calling her.
Chen Ruonan doesn't have a mobile phone, not because he doesn't have money, but the people who use mobile phones in the school are school leaders, and this thing is quite luxurious now. She is an ordinary teacher, and no one in the school knows her family background and identity, so she has to take a class every day. Not to mention that the impact is not good, and other teachers in the same office as her will be a little uncomfortable. Besides, it's really useless for her to ask for a mobile phone.
The two of them didn't bother to page, and after reading the message above, the two hurriedly went back to the sixth floor.
This time, the female secretary invited the two into the office with a smile on her face. Li Aiguo was also there, and when he saw the two of them coming in together, he didn't even bother to lift it, and asked, "Ho, what kind of wind is blowing the two of you here today?"
When he said this, he looked unhappy, as if the people of the whole world owed him money.
The female secretary served tea to the two, but she was surprised, she had never seen Director Li receive guests with such an attitude, you must know that Director Li is a well-known smiling tiger in the ministry, when did he meet a hygienist, when was it so cold as today? She was a little confused. Quickly closed the door and went out.
As soon as the secretary left, Chen Yang opened his mouth first: "Director Li, I just came to ask, why is my budget article stuck with you?" Everyone is a relative, so he asked very bluntly, straight to the point, and even the greetings were exempted, which was not polite at all.
Li Aiguo glanced at Chen Yang angrily. But he ignored him, but changed his face and looked at Chen Ruonan: "Hehe, Ruonan, why didn't you call me before you came?" I'm tired of waiting. ”
"It's good that you know.
It's okay if your cousin doesn't help, listen to Chen Yang, you still stuck the money in their development zone, right? Chen Ruonan didn't have a good breath, "Cousin." Hurry up and make everything clear to Chen Yang, I will have other things with him later. ”
"Yo, Ruonan, did you help your husband say good things before you got married?" Li Aiguo coldly came up with a very inappropriate sentence.
Chen Yang and Chen Ruonan's faces were hot at the same time.
Chen Ruonan was even more disgusted: "Cousin, what are you talking nonsense!" After speaking, he hurriedly picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea to hide his embarrassment.
"I'm not talking nonsense." Li Aiguo said and looked at Chen Yang, "Chen Yang, say it yourself, should I call you cousin now, or call you cousin-in-law?"
Chen Yang's old face flushed, he didn't come here to listen to Li Aiguo's ridicule. Immediately snorted unhappily: "Director Li, are you still working now?" Hurry up, let's get down to business. ”
