Text Chapter 88 Something Happens in My Hometown
Seeing that Guan Yuntian was relaxed, Lawyer Zhao said again: "Yes, you are the same as usual, what should you do, if there is nothing that needs to be verified, you can push them to me." ”
In the period that followed, the investigators called Guan Yuntian several times to verify certain details, but since then, they have never interviewed him in person.
In the open trial of Han Defa's smuggling of refined oil products, the relevant departments notified Guan Yuntian and invited him to observe the trial of the case.
"Of course, you can sit in or not, it's your freedom. Lawyer Zhao said.
"Forget it, I'm willing to stay as far away as possible from this kind of thing. ”
When I met with the president of ICBC afterwards, when talking about Han Defa's current situation, both of them sighed, "A good person, not doing his job, bent on making a fortune by crooked ways, but he tossed himself in, and now he is in prison, it's really not worth it!"
"At the beginning, I told him the nature and consequences of the matter clearly, he just couldn't listen to it, and now that he has hurt himself, Lao Han is really sad, I don't know if he is so persistent, or the ideas that those think tanks behind him helped him come up with. "Guan Yuntian said.
"Whether it's his own persistence, or the idea given by the senior staff behind him, his life is over anyway. The current speed of social development is rapid every day, ten years later, he came out of prison, the society has long been unaware of the extent of development, Lao Han did not have much culture, at that time he was in his early fifties, and he had long been abandoned by society. ”
"President Ren, as a friend, I think you are worthy of Lao Han, if you hadn't helped him in the past, he would have been unable to get along in society a long time ago. ”
"Speaking of this, you and I are afraid, fortunately you made a clear cut with him, I asked you to cooperate with him in the first place, if Lao Han burdens you, how can I be worthy of you?"
"To be honest, since I had the intention of cooperating with Lao Han, I have known Lao Han's personality and know that he is not authentic, so after cooperating with him, I am more careful, the first time he proposed to me the smuggling of refined oil, I suddenly became vigilant, and since then, I have subconsciously distanced myself from Lao Han. Although I made a good cut with him, when the old Han Dongzhuang incident happened, the police who handled the case also came to me many times some time ago, which formed a certain amount of ideological pressure on me. You know I've always been a law-abiding businessman and have never been willing to deal with the judiciary and law enforcement agencies. Guan Yuntian said.
"The matter has passed, Lao Han has today's ending, the blister on his feet is his own walk, as a friend, I have a clear conscience, as a former partner, his business did not affect you, we should all feel lucky. ”
"President Ren, Lao Han is your friend, now that he has an accident, it seems that he shouldn't say such things behind his back, but this is the case, a person who does business all day long, does not do his job properly, and ponders those crooked ways, I think something will happen sooner or later. ”
Lao Ren is glad that the nearly one billion loans he used to lend to Defa Refinery have already been transferred to Guan Yuntian's name with the company's equity, otherwise, with Lao Han's accident, those loans will not be recovered, which will be a devastating blow to Lao Ren's career.
......
Guan Yuntian has not been to the following branch for two or three months, after ten o'clock in the morning, after dealing with the official business at hand, he is going to go to the following branch to see, when he stood up and walked out, just arrived at the door of the office, the phone on the table rang, Guan Yuntian turned around and went back to answer the phone, without waiting for him to speak, a voice came from the phone, "Yuntian, are you busy? I want to tell you something." ”
"Mom, why did your old man remember to call me? Are you okay with my dad?" This call was made by Guan Yuntian's mother, Ma Guihua, and Guan Yuntian was a little surprised when he heard his mother's voice.
"We're all good, how are you as a family of three?"
"We're still like that, it's all right. Mom, is there something wrong with your call?"
"Yuntian, how long has it been since you returned to your hometown?" Ma Guihua didn't blame, just said casually.
"Mom, I'm sorry! Don't blame me, you old man, there are too many things, I really can't take care of it, is my dad angry?"
"No, I know you're busy, why are you angry! ”
"Oh, so you're on something else?"
"The day after tomorrow, your family of three will come back for a trip. "Ma Guihua Road.
"The day after tomorrow----, the day after tomorrow isn't Sunday, can't we go back on the weekend?"
"The day after tomorrow is your father's sixty-fifth birthday. ”
"Ouch! blame me, blame me, such a big thing, almost made me forget, yes, I remembered, the day after tomorrow is my father's birthday, okay, we must go back!" Guan Yuntian patted his head and blamed himself from the bottom of his heart.
"Hey, what's the blame for you? You have so many things to think about every day, it's normal that you don't think about it for a while, didn't I call in advance to remind you, and then your family will come back." "Ma Guihua understands her son very well.
"Mom, thank you for the reminder, if I forget, my dad will be so angry then!"
"Don't be like him, your father has never seen the world, be careful. "Ma Guihua always favors her son.
Putting down the phone, Guan Yuntian looked at the desk calendar on the table, the day after tomorrow was Thursday, he immediately made a record on that page, and he must not forget to go home to celebrate his father's birthday!
Before getting off work on the first day, Guan Yuntian greeted Ye Jiayi and said that there was something going on in his hometown and he would go back to his hometown the next day.
That night, Guan Yuntian asked Zhou Yuanyuan to ask for leave from the kindergarten, the child did not go to kindergarten the next day, and the family of three wanted to go back to their hometown to celebrate the old man's birthday.
At about 8 o'clock in the morning on Thursday, the driver drove Guan Yuntian to the largest supermarket in the county and bought a lot of gifts, including tobacco, alcohol, tea, meat and vegetables, filled the trunk of the car, and then went home to pick up Zhou Yuanyuan and the children, and drove to Guan Yuntian's hometown, Guanyang Village, Jinzhai Township.
From the city to Guanyang Village, 20 kilometers of which are provincial highways, under the main road, 10 kilometers leading to Guanyang Village, is a rural road, the road is narrow, potholes, the time required for this 10 kilometers is more than the 20 kilometers of the provincial road, a total of 30 kilometers away, it took a little more than an hour to arrive.
The car stopped at the entrance of the alley of Guan Yuntian's hometown, and the family got out of the car, and it was already past 10 o'clock in the morning. Entering the courtyard, several close relatives had already arrived early, and Guan Yuntian greeted the relatives one by one and asked them to help the driver move the things in the car into the house.
"There are vegetables and meat at home, isn't it superfluous for you to bring back these things?" The old father Guan Chenglin always had a lukewarm expression.
"Dad, where are the things you prepared?" asked Guan Yuntian.
"It's all here, isn't it enough?" Lao Guan pointed to the ingredients on the makeshift kitchen board.
Guan Yuntian's driver, Master Li, had helped others to hold banquets, and he had some experience in this area, so he put down what he was doing and came over, "Old man, your raw materials are enough for two tables of people at most." ”
"Dad, how many relatives and friends do you estimate to come at noon?" asked Guan Yuntian.
"There are only two or three tables of people. ”
"Master Li, how many tables can we bring these things to?" Guan Yuntian turned around and asked.
"At least enough for two tables. ”
"It's not early, hurry up, but in addition to vegetables, we bring cooked meat. Guan Yuntian urged.
"It's not too late, chicken, duck and fish, which need to be stewed, have already started. "Lao Guan is not in a hurry.
In the kitchen, Ma Guihua invited two men and two women to help four helpers, choose vegetables and wash vegetables, cut vegetables and change knives, fry and cook, and was very busy, Guan Yuntian entered the kitchen to greet everyone, and then an uncle and brother ran over, "Yuntian, there are guests." ”
Coming from the kitchen to the courtyard, I saw two middle-aged people in their fifties walking in one after the other, of course Guan Yuntian knew, walking in front of the village secretary Yang of Guanyang Village, and following behind was the head of Guan Village.
Guan Yang Village only has two surnames of Yang, and the surname Guan is the village head, and the secretary must come from the surname Yang, and vice versa, which has formed a tradition for many years. In terms of seniority, Guan Yuntian has to call Yang Zhishu uncle.
Guan Yuntian stepped forward to shake hands with Yang Zhishu and Guan Village Chief, and the two parents each took out fifty yuan and stuffed it to Guan Chenglin, "I don't know what gift to buy you, our little heart, please accept it." ”
Lao Guan looked at his son, meaning that this money is not collected?
Guan Yuntian smiled and said, "You can accept the wishes of the secretary and the village chief." "If you refuse, how embarrassing will it be for the guest?
Two tables and some benches had been set up in the courtyard, and Guan Yuntian beckoned the guests to sit down and made them tea with disposable paper cups, and then he also sat down to chat with the guests.
"It's rare to see you in normal times, and there is a question that makes us unsure, whether we should call you Mr. Guan or call you Yuntian like before?"
"It doesn't matter what it's called, but it's still the same as before, call me Yuntian, it looks kind. "Guan Yuntian never cared about this
"I think it's better to call your position, since you are the general manager and chairman, I think it is better to call you Mr. Guan, which looks solemn. Secretary Yang insisted.
"Uncle, there is no need to be so solemn at home, I am a native of Guanyang Village, you are all my fathers and fellow villagers, everyone should be casual. ”
"If you want me to say, it's better to be casual, on an occasion like today, Secretary Yang is willing to call Mr. Guan, of course you can, I want to call you Brother Yuntian, and you have to agree." "After all, it's a brother of the family, and Village Chief Guan seems to be more casual.
"Big brother has a point, so let's leave it at that. Guan Yuntian also had a relaxed expression.
"Another guest!" shouted someone outside the courtyard.
Following the prestige, I saw a person in his forties who looked like a cadre walking this way, Guan Yuntian was not familiar with the person who came, and Secretary Yang of the village party secretary said: "Isn't that the head of our township? Why is he here?"
Village Chief Guan on the side whispered: "He has asked me several times, and he always wants to meet Yuntian. "I see!
"Did you two arrive early?" asked Township Chief Zhao as he approached.
"We just arrived. Yang replied.
The village chief hurriedly introduced: "Township Chief Zhao, he is Guan Yuntian, Mr. Guan, Yuntian, he is the head of our Jinzhai Township." ”
Guan Yuntian stepped forward to shake the guests warmly, "Welcome to Township Chief Zhao!"
"A well-known private entrepreneur in the city, I finally met in person today, and I am fortunate to meet Mr. Guan!"
"Township Chief Zhao has won the award, please take a seat, I seem to have seen you before. ”
