Chapter 5
It signed a framework agreement for investment promotion with Baoyue Company and successfully received the deposit from Baoyue Company, which is a good thing for Zhengqi County, which is short of funds. If there are several such large enterprises to settle in Zhengqi, all the difficulties of Zhengqi will be solved in a few years. For this matter, the county magistrate of Qi made a special call to the director of the investment promotion bureau.
"Qin Min! Your subordinate Wang Zimin is still a rare investment talent, you must make good use of it, give young people more opportunities to show themselves, and let them have more contact with the outside, young people! As long as you give him a platform, a world to show, they can make this world give birth to some unexpected results. I am glad for you that China Merchants can have such a young man! ”
The county magistrate of Qi also said to Director Qin that he would reward the China Merchants Bureau and invite the people of the China Merchants Bureau to dinner.
Since the Baoyue Company paid the deposit, Ziming has not handled the affairs between the Baoyue Company and the government, not because he does not want to handle it, but because the government and the company directly negotiate, or the director and the government directly negotiate with the company. Ziming knew that his status was too low, so he didn't care anymore, he just hoped that his bonus would arrive in time and let him have a beautiful life. You know, the reward of 10 percent, 500,000 yuan, means to the staff of China Merchants. It means that he needs to go to class for more than ten years, and his money is only at his fingertips. Therefore, all the people in China Merchants Group, regardless of their age or the length of their work, all cast envious, jealous and hateful eyes. Some are really blessings, but more are jealousy, hoping that the government will suddenly change its policy and retract its previous promises. In short, I hope that Ziming will not get this money and live a life that they will struggle for more than ten years to achieve. Man! Always hope that all people are worse off than themselves, so that they can look at everyone with pity, and everyone else takes it as a goal.
Ziming learned from Director Qin that Baoyue Company is going to set up a "Baoyue Company (Zhengqi) Office" in Zhengqi, and the relevant procedures are currently being improved, and the work is progressing rapidly, and soon Baoyue Company will enter the site for construction. Lin Xiran also asked Ziming some questions about related work before, and Ziming said that he could run some business on behalf of the company, but then Baoyue Company did not contact Ziming. Ziming just wanted to help, and didn't have any other needs, he just thought that the bonus would arrive in time.
The banquet of the county magistrate of Qi was set up in the Zisanger Hotel, which reflected the importance he attached to China Merchants. Please be in the Purple Sanger Hotel, it is a kind of pomp, a kind of sincerity, a kind of respect, a kind of attention. To receive this kind of treatment, China Merchants was overjoyed, and more than a dozen people were not absent. The county magistrate of Qi also brought a few members of the Standing Committee to sit in it, and a large round table was full, although there was a certain amount of attention to the arrangement of seats, but so many leaders could sit together with the workers in general height, and it could be regarded as a corporal of Lixian.
At the table, the leaders pushed the cups and changed the lamps, staggered the chips, spoke slowly and methodically, and put them away freely. They speak as steadily as they sit.
On behalf of the county government, the county magistrate of Qi paid tribute to the China Merchants Bureau three times.
"It's really worthy of living in Xiaohonglou, attracting such a big investment, I thank you for the county party committee and the county government and all the people of Zhengqi County!" As he spoke, he looked at Director Qin again.
"Comrade Qin Min, the next step is to continue to grasp the work of attracting investment. Let you be the director of this investment promotion bureau, the county party committee is also well thought out, living in this little red building, you know, you are the right hand of the government, but don't let down the hopes of the people of Zhengqi County for you. ”
"I will definitely live up to the cultivation of the leader." In one sentence, Director Qin's face was solemn, and he said after drinking a glass of wine that he had just touched with County Magistrate Qi.
"Come, I'll toast Xiao Wang alone, I can attract Baoyue Company, I heard, Xiao Wang should be the first to work."
Ziming picked up the wine glass with both hands and drank it all. Drinking with the leader, he knows that the first thing is respect.
"The county magistrate of Qi drinks slowly, and Ziming does it first as a respect!" Ziming was happy, and the county magistrate did not forget about it.
"I also have to finish, the investment work has a long way to go, and I hope that you young people will take more responsibility, as the head of a county, we are the people's public servants, we must care about the people, and always think about doing good things for the people, doing practical things, just like this investment promotion."
County Magistrate Qi's words were applauded by those present.
"In order to show that the leaders attach great importance to our China Merchants Bureau, I propose that all the staff of China Merchants Bureau each give a glass to the leaders of the county party committee."
Then Director Qin saluted in turn according to the height of his position and the size of his power. He will not make a mistake in the order of this toast, and the leader also approves of it, and the seat on the table can also be seen.
After Director Qin finished saluting, he said to the people around him:
"It's your turn, pour the wine to the fullest, and the amount of wine determines the sincerity of respect."
One by one, the staff of China Merchants toasted to the leaders of the county party committee, with full sincerity, and full of wine overflowed from the glass.
"Make up for the overflow!" Director Qin was supervising from the side.
After drinking a lap, Wang Ziming was dizzy, drinking was not his strong point. He shook his head vigorously and rubbed his eyes, trying to keep himself awake. This trick worked, although his head hurt a little, but he felt that his eyes were clear, and he didn't see things twice. The people at the table were as steady as Mount Tai, and even Zhang Mo, who was sitting next to him, seemed to be undrunk. His eyes were not mistaken, these people at the table, except for himself, everyone could drink down a table of people. In this circle, a large amount of alcohol may not be able to go up, and those who can go up have a large amount of wine. So as soon as I entered the circle, everyone was practicing the amount of alcohol, talking about wine all the time, and it was not strange to say who could drink as much as possible.
One piece of wine has been drunk, and now the second one is being drunk, but it is no longer in a fixed order, everyone is free to combine, you are a circle, I am a circle, and the wine is happy, and you can talk freely.
"Xiao Wang come back to the circle, today you are the protagonist."
As soon as the county magistrate Qi spoke, everyone said "good". Director Qin personally poured the wine, and each glass was full of ten. It's out, Ziming thought to himself.
He started with the county magistrate of Qi, and everyone had a big cup in front of him. In front of Zhang Mo, looking at his swaying appearance, Zhang Mo said:
"Either the two of us don't drink anymore and drink again another day, you've already drunk too much today, and I've never seen you drink so much."
"Drink, you must drink today, you must drink it happily, and you must drink it with deep brotherly feelings." After Ziming finished speaking, he drank it all.
Zhang Mo also poured the wine in his hand into his mouth in time.
"Good amount of alcohol!"
Ziming's arrogance was praised by those present!
When the two pieces of wine were drunk, Ziming had already collapsed on the stool for a while. No matter how much alcohol you drink, you are slightly drunk at this time. The night had come, and everyone felt it was time to leave.
"Qin Ming, this meal is recorded on the head of China Merchants, all for work."
"County Magistrate Qi is careful, it has been arranged a long time ago, it is already an honor for China Merchants to invite China Merchants to drink!"
Several leaders of the county party committee left first. The car downstairs had already been prepared to take them away from the Purple Sanger Hotel.
"Ziming, can you still go?"
Ziming was dazed, but he could still hear people talking.
"Yes, why can't you, who is my prince!"
He got up from the stool, sat down again, got up again, and this time didn't sit down. He walked as if he was drunk, and when he walked out the door, a cool breeze from the hallway blew across his face, and the coolness made him know that he was drunk. He knew he should go home, so he went downstairs with everyone.
Director Qin stopped a taxi for him, and he told the driver the location of his home.
Finally crawling to his door, he used the key to open the door, but the key just couldn't be inserted into the lock cylinder. Ziming was scolding in front of the door, the door suddenly opened, and he rushed home, just falling on the person who opened the door, and the person who opened the door was thrown to the ground by him.
Xiao Ya, who fell to the ground, was dizzy from the smell of alcohol, and it took half a day to break free.
"Oh my God, how can you drink like this?"
Seeing Ziming in front of her, Xiaoya was taken aback, she hurriedly dragged Ziming on the ground up, helped him to the bed, took off his clothes and shoes, and covered him with a quilt.
"This man can't be without a woman to watch, fortunately I came today, otherwise I don't know what would have happened?"
Greeting Hao Ziming, Xiaoya sat on the sofa in the living room. Since she came back from work, she has not been free, and has been helping Ziming clean up the house and cook. originally waited for Ziming to come back and have dinner together, so that he could feel the warmth of having a daughter-in-law. But looking at his current appearance, Xiaoya ate by herself, admired her own craftsmanship, and had a smug smile on her face. This feeling is something that can't be expressed when eating with her mother, she feels that she has found a home, and it is a good home, there is no need to talk about this scumbag and that scumbag with those women who have not found a boyfriend or have been discarded by their boyfriends, and should draw a line with them. At least there must be a certain boundary on the issues discussed, and you shouldn't be cynical and have to go home and look at this man. The men they know in West Asia are all unreliable, and they look like some prodigal boys who often wander the streets, compared with their own Ziming, alas, how can they be compared? is not on the same level at all, she is immersed in the spring breeze nourished by love every day.
Since her marriage contract with Ziming, Xiao Ya has come to the rental house more than she has returned to her own home, living a romantic two-person world, living a life like glue every day.
A week later, Ziming asked the leader about the bonus.
"Bonus! Ziming! What the government has said must be fulfilled, but Ziming, you also know that the government is in trouble now, and we all know it, I know it, and you know it. We are all state workers, we are all Zhengqi staff, we grew up drinking Zhengqi's water, and now is the most difficult time for Zhengqi, we can't think about our own affairs all day long, we have to take care of the overall situation. I asked the county magistrate when you didn't come, wait a little longer, you have to go through the procedure, you know, the procedure has to go, which one is a violation, we are not the same as ordinary people, the people can be unreasonable, but we can't be unreasonable, you Wang Ziming can't be unreasonable, reason, you understand! Ziming. ”
"But, Director Qin, I understand the reason, but-I-I-I've booked a house."
"It's good to book a house! I was still living in a rented house when I got married! ”
"But I need this money now to pay for the house, the contract is about to expire, and if I don't pay the house on time, my deposit will have to be lost, and the deposit is still borrowed!"
"Don't worry! Wait, you are indispensable, I will negotiate with the leader in time. ”
"But—"
"Don't be, you see, I'm still busy! I'm going out again, by the way, you are ready to go out for this expedition and leave tomorrow. Good boy, you're got it. ”
"I'm not going this time, I'm going to go as I wish, I'm not going anyway." Ziming's face was obviously unhappy.
"You see, young people just love to be angry, go to work! I'll keep an eye on this for you, and I'll let you know as soon as there's news. "Director Qin knew that Ziming was already angry.
After talking to the director, Ziming muttered in his heart. He couldn't afford to lose this house, which was the one he had chosen and built by the best of the several developers who moved into Zhengqi. The location is the best location in Zhengqi, the community environment is beautiful, all kinds of supporting facilities are complete, and the house price is still rising, the current price and the price he set before are hundreds of hundreds, once lost, it is impossible to buy back. The person who buys the house is like buying cabbage, and the person who sells the house is like selling cabbage.
A few days later, the developer called Ziming to inform him that the house had been fully built and that he could inspect the house at any time, and he could receive the keys for decoration after paying the balance payment.
After receiving the notice, Ziming was very anxious, which was completely different from the mood of looking forward to the delivery of the house before. He hopes that the house will be handed over later, so that he will have time to turn around, and his bonus will be in place. The caller also said that there was only one day left in their contract with Ziming, and if they could not pay the house on time tomorrow, according to the contract, the deposit would not be refunded, and they would sell the house again. Ziming knows that the developer is serious, and in the face of interests, they will do what they say and will not be ambiguous.
The house must be in hand, the deposit cannot be lost, and the bank still owes a huge amount of money! Also, the wedding date with Xiaoya has been set, and it will be too late to decorate the house. The top priority is to find a way to get the developer to extend the performance period of the purchase contract of the house, find a way to raise money for himself, and then wait for the bonus to be paid. But Ziming and the developer boss have never known each other in their lives, and even if they want to go to the other side, they will ignore it. Zi Ming thought about it and decided to intercede with a friend from the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau. The Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau manages the housing business, and even the ordinary staff do not dare to slack off easily.
The friend was genuinely helpful, and the developer agreed to extend the fulfillment period by one month without charging any interest. One month is long enough, even if it can be extended, Ziming doesn't need it anymore, because it can't be used as a wedding room, which will be a pity.
Xiaoya has received a call from the renovation company, which tells her that they have started to renovate the houses in the Mirror Garden Community. The first phase of the project has been fully delivered, and when they are asked when they will be renovated, the company will arrange it in advance. The company has a lot of business, and if the master is late, there is not enough, so you have to wait for a long time. The decoration company is selected by Xiaoya. In Zhengqi, she looks down on this decoration company, and she disdains the rest. Moreover, she had already set a design plan with the decoration company, and the decoration company also considered that she signed the contract with them early, so it gave priority.
When Xiaoya received the notice, she asked Ziming about the situation of the house, Ziming didn't want to hit Xiaoya's Yaxing, and he didn't want Xiaoya to have any unpleasantness in the house, let alone let Xiaoya know that there was a problem with her money. This house is his agreement with Xiaoya's marriage, and he can't let Xiaoya bear even the slightest unhappiness no matter what, and the money will definitely arrive, it's only a matter of time. So, Ziming said to Xiaoya:
"It's been too busy these days, I went to see the house before, the walls of the house were a little soaked, I was waiting for the company to deal with it, and I waited for a few showers of rain to inspect and inspect it, and then collect the house for decoration after confirming that it was not soaked in water, and also to avoid unpleasant leakage in the later stage of installation."
Xiaoya had to tell the decoration company to postpone the renovation time.
Time passed day by day, and without seeing Director Qin's reply, Ziming was very anxious. He can't wait any longer, the extended contract period of the real estate developer is approaching day by day, and marriage is a big deal, and there are still many things to deal with. When Xiaoya and Ziming mentioned taking wedding photos and how to spend their honeymoon, Ziming was no longer interested.
So, Ziming went to the director again.
"Ziming! Why is it here again? Didn't I tell you? The government's promise will definitely be fulfilled, who is the county magistrate of Qi, our parents and officials of Zhengqi, you can not believe what I say, don't you believe what he says? You also saw that the county magistrate of Qi specially invited us to dinner and praised you! ”
"But, Director, I can't wait, I don't pay anymore, the house is gone, and the deposit is gone."
"If it's gone, it's gone, and it's not impossible to buy it again, isn't there a house in the back? Didn't I tell you? When I was your age, I had nothing. ”
"But-" Ziming still wanted to say that he couldn't get married without a house, but Director Qin had already stopped him.
"Don't be, don't be old, you should know that in the current predicament, many departments have been late in paying their salaries, but our China Merchants Bureau, isn't the monthly salary on time? Didn't you get paid? Don't you know about this? Director Qin took a sip of blue and white tea, and then said to Ziming in a serious tone:
"We live in the Little Red Building, which is enough to let other departments know our importance, you are tossing, and you want to live in this building The unit is lined up? We live in this building, which is the right-hand man of the Zhengqi government, and we want to share the worries and solve problems for the government, instead of taking advantage of the fire to rob and fish the government. In this case, how can I be worthy of being a staff member of my grand China Merchants Bureau? Director Qin took another sip of blue and white tea, "Ziming! You are still young, and you have to learn to sacrifice everything, learn to act according to the face of the government, and think about the overall situation. ”
Ziming asked for his own money, but was said by the director to take advantage of the fire to rob and fish the government. He felt very uncomfortable in his heart, but he really didn't know how to say it when he saw the attitude of the director's mud bodhisattva and the look of earnest teaching. He knew that the leader was clever and had a hard time arguing, so he left in a huff.
The payment deadline is approaching day by day, and the marriage period is gradually shortening. Xiaoya seemed to see Ziming's thoughts, and didn't ask about the house again, she just waited patiently for Ziming, not wanting to disturb him. The renovation company called, and she directly told them that you should decorate other people's homes first, it's not busy here. But Ziming knows that it is unrealistic to rely on bonuses to pay for the house - hand over - decorate - get married, and the house must be necessary, which is beyond doubt. Marriage must be married, this is the common wish of himself and Xiaoya, and it is also the common wish of both parents. For this reason, Ziming had to take a risky move.
