Lin Xiao and Song Zhengyi and other four people drank until more than ten o'clock in the evening.

This is also because Lin Xiao, Song Zhengyi, and Tang Mingxin have not seen each other for many days, and it is rare to have the opportunity to eat together, so the time has dragged on for a long time.

Anyway, someone paid the bill, so a few people were not in a hurry, and slowly drank and ate, and finally Song Zhengyi felt that Japanese food was not enjoyable, so he called someone to send two loaded hot pots.

The weather here is also cold, although there is no heating in the house, but after all, the season is here, as northerners, they still like to eat this steaming hot pot, which is more enjoyable, far better than cold Japanese food.

Wei Jing accompanied them, but there were no complaints.

After all, the matter of treating Meng Dazhi has been negotiated, and other questions are naturally not a problem, even if Lin Xiao eats here for three days in a row, she is willing to accompany her.

When the stalls were scattered, Lin Xiao and Tang Mingxin made an appointment to go shopping together the next day.

"It's been a long time since I've come out for a meal like this." Song Zhengyi drank a little too much, about six taels of liquor, although he was not drunk, but he talked a little more, "Hold on to this paragraph, even if you pay for your own food, you don't want to come to this kind of place with super high consumption." ”

"That's right, your salary is about 10,000 at most, and this kind of place is really unaffordable." Lin Xiao nodded and said, "In the past, they were all on account and took public funds, but now they are all using official cards, and it is definitely not possible to hang public funds." ”

"Yes, this aspect is stuck, and the three public branches are indeed much less." Song Zhengyi agreed.

Another way, of course, is to eat privately, but now that the anti-corruption is being strictly suppressed, even if there are still many rich people who are willing to entertain, there are really not many leaders who dare to agree to them, after all, there are too many lessons from the past, and how many people have fallen because of eating and drinking.

Just eating and drinking is naturally not a too serious problem, but the other problems involved in this are the most deadly, even if you pay for food and drink yourself, but once this kind of thing is exposed by the media, it is not a simple problem, and it will be linked to corruption at any time.

"When all aspects are regularized in the future, this kind of eating and drinking will not be a problem, after all, the income and expenditure are transparent, and there is no unclear problem." Lin Xiao said, "Moreover, with the intensification of anti-corruption efforts, the trend of eating and drinking at public funds has been stopped, and the prices of some consumption places will become rational, and ordinary wage earners can afford to consume." ”

"It's true." Tang Mingxin agreed, "Hairy crabs are cheap, and our colleagues from the brigade went out to eat together last week, and they found out, it seems that these are the benefits of anti-corruption." ”

"Actually, as a businessman, we also like this kind of simple life." Wei Jing next to her also expressed her attitude, "Isn't it good to focus on developing production and improving operations?" It's better than fighting the corrupt people. If I really don't have that many problems, I just need to worry about the accounts and tax bills, and I have a lot of time to do other things. ”

"Yes, each and every one of us is a victim of corruption." Song Zhengyi concluded.

After sending everyone away, Lin Xiao returned to Mingzhu's home.

After he entered the door, he changed his slippers, and then asked the staff to arrive, "My dad hasn't come back yet?" ”

"Secretary Lin has come back and is talking in the study." The staff replied.

At this time, Lin Zhengnan had already returned, but he had not rested yet, and was still talking to the guests in the study.

"Oh, it's so late, and there are guests." Lin Xiao nodded, then sat on the sofa and turned on the TV to take a casual look.

The staff quickly brought him a glass of juice and came over, "Secretary Xiaolin, drink some juice and wake up the bar." ”

"Oh, thank you." Lin Xiao thanked him, and then took two sips of juice.

In fact, he won't get drunk no matter how much he drinks, but the smell of alcohol all over his body is indeed easy to be discovered, and two catties of Moutai will be in his stomach, and the pores of the whole person will exude the smell of alcohol.

The staff also saw him like this, and intuitively thought that Lin Xiao had drunk too much, so they got him a glass of juice.

The guests in Lin Zhengnan's study didn't stay long before coming out.

After sending off the guests, the father and son sat down in the living room, made a cup of tea, and talked about things.

"Why did you get into trouble as soon as you came to Mingzhu?" Lin Zhengnan complained.

"I'm fine, what's the trouble?" Lin Xiao expressed dissatisfaction.

"What's the matter with you and Secretary-General Yan, don't say it's not related at all, now that even the city bureau is involved, how can no one tell me?" Lin Zhengnan asked.

There are not many big things that happen in Mingzhu that can be hidden from Lin Zhengnan.

After all, now Lin Zhengnan has gained a firm foothold in Mingzhu, and there are many people who have taken refuge in him, and all news channels have basically been opened.

The conflict between Lin Xiao and Secretary General Yan in the evening has reached Lin Zhengnan's ears through various channels, but there are various versions, so that Lin Zhengnan can't determine the actual situation at that time for the time being, what is it like?

Of course, if Lin Zhengnan had the heart to figure out the situation at that time, it would not be difficult, but he didn't need to know the reason for this matter now, after all, the work of the bureau committee was still very busy, and there was no need to waste it on such trivial matters.

Isn't it just a trivial matter of eating and grabbing a table, and it can be used on the platform?

At least in Lin Zhengnan's view, this matter is just a conversation after dinner, there is no need to delve into it, if it really investigates, it may not have a good impact on Lin Xiao, and even a little bad for himself.

In any case, Lin Xiao is his son Lin Zhengnan, and in the eyes of outsiders, the main reason why Lin Xiao can clash head-on with Secretary General Yan of the Municipal Party Committee and not fall behind is not Lin Xiao's own ability, but relying on Lin Zhengnan's prestige.

This impression is obviously not a good thing, so Lin Zhengnan doesn't want to get involved in this matter, so it's better to let it slowly dissipate into everyone's talk.

However, now that Lin Xiao has returned, Lin Zhengnan naturally wants to ask him, why did he have a conflict with Secretary General Yan?

"He's a guy who doesn't clean up." Lin Xiao took a sip of juice, but he didn't have anything good to say, but he didn't avoid the staff next to him, and talked about it directly, "Some of your cadres in Mingzhu City really need to be rectified well, a table of tens of thousands of yuan of dishes, you can order them without changing the color, and you don't need to pay after eating, do you say there is no corruption in this?" I don't believe it anyway. ”

"What's going on, let's listen carefully." Lin Zhengnan listened to it and really cared about this issue.

He definitely wouldn't worry about Lin Xiao's problems in this regard, after all, Lin Xiao has a lot of money, and it is impossible to be corrupt or bribe-taking, if Lin Xiao is corrupt or something, the high-level members of the Central Standing Committee will not believe it, after all, Lin Xiao's income outside is hundreds of billions or tens of billions at a time, and it is calculated in dollars.

With such an income standard, do people need to embezzle that little bit of small profits? Of course it's not necessary, it's just insulting.

So Lin Xiao explained the situation at that time in detail, and then called Gao Lan and asked him to clean up the matter of Vice Governor Xu, and briefly talked about it.

"The daughter of the old Gao family, how can there be such a statement?" When Lin Zhengnan heard this, he immediately frowned, "Are you sure that the old Gao family really wants to take down Vice Governor Xu?" And is this Vice Governor Xu really a member of their old Gao family? ”

"Of course it's not that easy to determine." Lin Xiao shook his head and said, "There are some things, just looking at the surface problems, you must not be able to see the truth, but this Vice Governor Xu also has a lot of problems, otherwise, Gao Lan would not be able to find me so much evidence about him." Now all I have to do is to pick this matter apart and then confirm the evidence one by one. ”

For Lin Xiao in the middle. Period. As far as the committee is concerned, of course, there will be ways to implement the evidence provided by Gao Lan, and on the premise of having a clear goal, it is much less difficult to deduce some things backwards, and it will not take long to do this.

Lin Zhengnan naturally knew this, so he didn't comment much on Lin Xiao's thoughts.

"It's not a big deal for the municipal party committee to get a deputy secretary-general, right?" Lin Xiao asked Lin Zhengnan.

"Isn't it a big deal? Haven't you started to do it now? Lin Zhengnan glared at his son angrily and said, "It's also a hall-level position, and you think our pearl is not stable enough." ”

Although the deputy secretary-general of the municipal party committee may not be a very important position, but for the officialdom of the entire pearl, this is after all the territory directly managed by Lin Zhengnan, and now he suddenly starts to arrest people, which means that Lin Zhengnan has completely gained a firm foothold and wants to take action against his subordinates.

After all, Lin Zhengnan has been here for so long, and the biggest action is to target the Standing Committee at the highest level and the city bureau with the strongest implementation, and basically does not have much sense of existence in other aspects, and there is no adjustment to the municipal party committee under his direct management.

But now, when Lin Xiao makes such a move, many people will blame Lin Zhengnan for this matter, thinking that Lin Zhengnan is leading the matter.

So, it's not a big deal, but it sends a worrying signal.

"Actually, I'm here to help you prevent it from happening, and it would be much more comfortable if you could think like that." Lin Xiao said with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll adjust his division of labor first." Lin Zhengnan thought for a moment, and then said to Lin Xiao.

Although the adjustment of the division of labor is not an obvious way to demote or deal with Secretary General Yan, the significance of such a sudden move at this time is indeed obvious.
