Sitting at the desk after a long absence, Liu Dake was very excited, looked at the sofa in front of him, motioned for Liang Haixing to sit down, and then leaned on the high-back chair, took off his shoes, put his feet on the low cabinet under the boss's desk, and called Mr. Wang. Asked Mr. Wang if he had time in the evening, he hadn't eaten with Mr. Wang for a long time. I happened to come to the provincial capital today to report work, and I wanted to invite Mr. Wang to drink two glasses in the evening. Mr. Wang seemed to have guessed Liu Dake's thoughts, so he directly said to Liu Dake that Secretary Zhou had already called him, and also told him that Deputy Director Liu came to the provincial capital today to fight for the project, and asked Mr. Wang to cooperate with Deputy Director Liu to win the project. After receiving a call from Secretary Zhou, Mr. Wang, who was fighting the flood outside, hurried back to the provincial capital, and was drinking tea shortly after arriving home. Mr. Wang's words made Liu Dake a little embarrassed, and what was even more unexpected was that Zhou Siguo not only thought that the project might involve the geological structure of Liangzhuang, but also personally called Mr. Wang and asked Mr. Wang to cooperate with him, which shows that Zhou Siguo attaches great importance to the project. At the same time, Liu Dake felt fortunate that Mr. Wang had been prepared for eating together in the evening, thanks to which he called Mr. Wang and invited him to eat at night, otherwise, after meeting, it would be even more embarrassing.

Liu Dake couldn't help but think of the scene when Zhou Siguo answered the phone call from Secretary SW during the disaster relief in Qianshan, especially when Secretary SW told Zhou Siguo that SW agreed in principle to the transformation and development plan of Liangzhuang Coal Mine of the Mashan Municipal Party Committee. Liu Dake listened to Secretary SW's statement very clearly, that is, he expressed support for Secretary SW of the plan of the Mashan Municipal Party Committee. This is the sword of Shang Fang to win the support of the provincial project office. Mr. Wang promised to help with the work, and there was the support of Secretary SW. With the approval of the Provincial Project Office, Liu Dake is full of confidence and even more interested.

For the banquet in the evening, Liu Dake seemed to be particularly attentive. Putting down the phone, Liu Dake asked Liang Haixing to hurry up and arrange a magnificent high-end room in Haitian Building, and prepare to banquet the leaders of the Provincial Project Office and Mr. Wang, and finalize the construction of a high-speed rail station in Liangzhuang at the wine table. In Liang Haixing's view, Liu Dake and Mr. Wang should report to the project office and explain the problems raised by the project office. If you don't report and drink a drink, can you really solve it? Liu Da could see that Liang Haixing was still sitting on the sofa, as if he had something on his mind, so he looked at Liang Haixing with puzzled eyes. Liang Haixing hurriedly said: "What about the order?" ”

Liu Dake didn't know Liang Haixing's thoughts at this time, so he looked at Liang Haixing suspiciously, and couldn't help laughing: "I'll wait to eat after ordering." Liang Haixing couldn't help laughing, and further explained: "What do I mean to contact the guests, especially the leaders of the Provincial Project Office, who will notify?" ”

Seeing that he had misunderstood Liang Haixing, Liu Dake disagreed and said, "This is easy to do." Gao Yan's husband is in the provincial project office, and the guests over there will be handed over to Gao Yan to implement. Liu Dake seemed to be prepared.

Liang Haixing was puzzled, so he said: "Gao Yan's husband is just a deputy director." "Liang Haixing's meaning is very clear, as a subordinate, how can the deputy director ask the leader of the mobilization committee?

Liu Dake smiled slightly and said, "You must tell Gao Yan and let Gao Yan participate." As long as Gao Yan participates, her husband will definitely be able to invite their committee leaders. Liu Da could see that Liang Haixing was still full of doubts, so he smiled again: "We asked Gao Yan's husband to invite the leaders of their unit, but it will definitely not work." Gao Yan told his husband that the nature was different. Why do you have to let Gao Yan participate, and on the way back, Gao Yan's husband has told Gao Yan that their committee leaders have time in the past two days. ”

"Liu Dake is using Gao Yan to blackmail her husband." Liang Haixing finally understood Liu Dake's thoughts, so he couldn't help but smile and said, "I understand." Liu Dake also smiled and was very proud.

"What about Director Huang?" Liang Haixing asked again. Liang Haixing was worried about causing Liu Dake's misunderstanding, so he hurriedly explained: "I can implement the number of people." Lest you order a meal and the guests don't arrive, how bad it is to cause waste. ”

Liu Dake's interest suddenly disappeared, and after a moment of contemplation, he smiled and said, "I have reported to Director Huang just now, you can confirm with Director Huang again." Liu Dake's eyes looked at Liang Haixing, and he seemed a little embarrassed.

Liang Haixing really wanted to see Huang Zhenggang alone, he missed Huang Zhenggang very much, and more importantly, Liang Haixing wanted to make a tactful report to Huang Zhenggang about Liu Da using public funds to buy cards and gifts. But Liang Haixing was worried that Liu Dake could see his thoughts, so he pretended to have concerns, and said: "For such an important matter, I, a section-level cadre, will invite Director Huang, okay?" ”

Liu Dake seemed to trust Liang Haixing very much, and said with a smile: "Why is it not good, don't you just go and ask Director Huang if he is free at night?" Perhaps worried about causing Liang Haixing to misunderstand, Liu Dake smiled again: "I have reported to Director Huang just now, you just want to implement it again, what can't you do." ”

Liang Haixing saw that Liu Dake really wanted to invite Huang Zhenggang to participate in the banquet in the evening, so he slowly got up, Liu Da saw the situation, and said: "I estimate that the night will be a fierce battle." Liu Dake was thoughtful. After a while, Liu Dake seemed to remember something again, and said, "You can find someone from the reception department who can drink, participate together in the evening, and then let them settle the bill by the way." I guess it's a lot to spend tonight, and it's better to be reimbursed from the reception fee in the hall. ”

As soon as he walked into Huang Zhenggang's office, Huang Zhenggang seemed to guess Liang Haixing's intention.

"What, Lao Liu sent you here to invite me to the banquet in the evening?" Huang Zhenggang stood up from his desk as he spoke, walked to the sofa opposite the desk with a teacup, and motioned for Liang Haixing to sit down. Liang Haixing looked at Huang Zhenggang beside him in surprise, and thought: Director Huang is so stunned that he can even see what he is thinking in his heart. Without waiting for Liang Haixing to speak, Huang Zhenggang said again: "Actually, I have already replied to Lao Liu, on such an occasion, in the final analysis, it is still Ma Shan's matter, how can I participate." Lao Liu understands very well that he also deliberately let me. Besides, I have to arrange flood relief at night. ”

Huang Zhenggang's heartfelt words made Liang Haixing feel very cordial, so he reported to Huang Zhenggang that Liu Dake asked him to use public funds to buy cards and buy gifts. Unexpectedly, Huang Zhenggang smiled slightly after hearing this, and said to Liang Haixing, he already knew. Huang Zhenggang said meaningfully to Liang Haixing: "Now this society is very complicated, we must pay attention to grasp ourselves." Liang Haixing didn't seem to fully understand Huang Zhenggang's words, and his eyes were a little puzzled. Huang Zhenggang also seemed to see Liang Haixing's thoughts, and he was in a good mood, so he told Liang Haixing the story. Huang Zhenggang asked Liang Haixing, have you read the I Ching? As the oldest philosophy in China, Liang Haixing knows a little about the Book of Changes, but he doesn't know what Huang Zhenggang is thinking at this time, so it is not easy to answer, and he nodded lightly.

Huang Zhenggang seemed to have something to say to Liang Haixing, so he didn't care what Liang Haixing was thinking, and didn't wait for Liang Haixing to answer. Huang Zhenggang talked about the I Ching for Liang Haixing. Huang Zhenggang said: Qiangua, known as the first hexagram of the Book of Changes, and the Kun hexagram is called the two hexagrams of opening the door to heaven and earth, especially this hexagram contains a very deep truth, among them, the Ninth Five-Year Hexagram is, "Flying Dragon in the sky, good to see the Lord", also known as the "Ninety-Five Supreme", placed in a unit and a department, that is, the supreme leader. And further up, it is the upper nine yao, and the hexagram is Kanglong's regret. The reason why I say this is because there are still big guys above the Ninety-Five Supreme, and once you indulge yourself too much, you will also be restrained by the big guys. Is there no one to restrain the big guy? In China, in addition to the three emperors and five emperors, Lao, Kong, and Meng are recognized saints, among them, Laozi, if he can do it like a normal person, he is called "Lao"; If Confucius speaks nonsense, it is "roaring"; If Mencius loses his humanity, it is "fierce". And what does the three words "mouth, man, and dog" add to the "three saints" mean, that is, "bark", which returns to the nine three lines of the Qiangua, the gentleman is dry all day long, and he is not to blame. "Perhaps this is the breadth and profundity of China's long-standing traditional culture!" Huang Zhenggang couldn't help but sigh.

Liang Haixing didn't fully understand the meaning of Huang Zhenggang's words, but he always kept Huang Zhenggang's words in his heart.

As Liu Dake expected, all the people Liu Dake wanted to invite were here. Liu Dake is also very good at arranging, letting Mr. Wang serve as the main escort and himself as the deputy escort. Things didn't seem to go well at first. Although Mr. Wang explained, the provincial project office was still worried that the underground structure of Liangzhuang was too loose and not suitable for building a high-speed rail station, or even a railway. The project was at an impasse. Liu Dake also raised the situation of the phone call between Secretary SW and Zhou Siguo of the Mashan Municipal Party Committee. The leaders of the provincial project office said no more, but they did not explicitly agree. The staff of the Provincial Project Office said to Liu Dake: Since Secretary SW agreed to the plan of Mashan City, it is not enough to rely on a phone call, and if SW issues a written opinion, we will approve it immediately. Otherwise, if something really goes wrong afterwards, who will be responsible? We can't take the call between Secretary SW and Secretary Zhou of Masan City as a basis. Besides, what did the two leaders talk about on the phone, do you have any recordings?

An ordinary staff member of the Provincial Development and Reform Commission dared to question himself face to face, Liu Dake was the first time he encountered it, and his face, which had been smiling, suddenly turned purple, although he was still smiling, but it was a little stiff. The staff's questioning made it even more difficult for the leaders of the provincial project office to express their position, and the scene suddenly became tense. Seeing this, Mr. Wang kept persuading the wine and tried to ease the atmosphere. Liu Da can see that if the stalemate continues, no one will express his position lightly, and he will definitely return in vain. Moreover, the opinions of the staff of the provincial project office are not unreasonable. Liu Dake glanced at Gao Yan's husband and walked out of the room, Lu Jun understood and followed Liu Dake out of the room.

In a reception room of the hotel, Liu Dake took out an envelope from his pocket, handed it to Gao Yan's husband, and then gently patted Gao Yan's husband on the shoulder. Gao Yan's husband smiled slightly: "I understand." Liu Dake didn't say anything and walked out of the reception room. Lu Jun was the only one left in the reception room.

Lu Jun returned to the room, as if nothing had happened, everyone stopped mentioning the project, and kept drinking, as if it was a gathering of friends.

Suddenly, Lu Jun saw that the leader of the committee, who was also the main person in charge of the provincial project office, went to the bathroom, and also got up and quietly followed him, like a guard.
