Chapter 126

Li Yuanlang walked in and saw that both sides of the quarrel had big heads, with Han Wei with thick faces and necks on one side, while the boss's wife Gao Yue'e on the other side.

After asking the reason for the quarrel, I found out that Gao Yue'e added a dish to the recipe called "Female Forest Frog" stewed potatoes.

Although I just added a dish, the trick is quite good. In October, the golden autumn is when forest frogs produce seeds. Generally, ordinary male forest frogs only sell for a few dozen yuan per kilogram, while female forest frogs with seeds cost more than 200 or even about 300 yuan. The reason is that female forest frogs have thick oil, and their fallopian tubes are also called toad oil. They are a precious tonic. The nutrients are no less than ginseng, bird's nest, and Cordyceps sinensis, and they also have the effect of nourishing the kidneys and strengthening yang.

According to Gao Yue'e's meaning, it takes at least two kilograms to stew a large bowl of female forest frogs, and a total of two tables, so four kilograms of female forest frogs are needed. In this way, it costs more than one thousand yuan to buy these things.

Moreover, Gao Yue'e was very dissatisfied with Han Wei's ordinary sorghum white that only bought a bottle of more than ten yuan per bottle. The bottled wine that can be eaten in the village is at least more than one hundred yuan. She didn't drink such cheap wine. Secretary Ma would be angry when he saw it.

Han Wei came up and spoke straightforwardly: "There is no money for food in the countryside. The director bought these things out of his own pocket. It has cost more than 500 yuan. You asked the director to buy the mother forest frog and high-end wine. The director has to take the money. Why? Besides, you are not from the township government, so it is too much to point fingers here."

Gao Yue'e wanted to fight back with the words, but when she heard Li Yuanlang paying out of her own pocket, she suddenly stared at the boss and exclaimed: "Guest Li, why are you doing this? The village has all the expenses in my account, so you don't have to pay for it personally."

Li Yuanlang said with a stern face: "Boss Gao, you can calculate how much money the village owes you, and I will pay it back as soon as possible. This time we settle the cash, and the meals in the village will be arranged in the cafeteria in the future, and we will not make any trouble for you."

"What!" Gao Yue'e thought she had heard it wrong, so she asked again, and received a very affirmative nod to respond.

Gao Yue'e was stunned. Once the township government canceled the designated dining at Yeyuhua Hotel, her losses would be great.

You know, the village eats, drinks and takes her, and it takes less than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan a year. There are only a handful of catering industries in the small Shuiming Township that have such income. She has also made a lot of money from this over the years.

Seeing that the money tree was about to fall, Gao Yue'e stopped doing it, she pulled Li Yuanlang aside. Her charming phoenix eyes flashed with lightning. She took out her unique skill to seduce men, and took Li Yuanlang's arm and acted coquettishly.

"Good brother, I'm going to have this trick with my sister. I'm just a joke. Let's do it. Stewed forest frogs are mine, and the wine and cigarettes are all mine. Secretary Ma likes this, and I'm also thinking about you. And..." She deliberately avoided Han Wei and lay directly in Li Yuanlang's ear and whispered: "As long as the countryside still eats with me in the future, I'll give you 5% rebates, or you can pay me a reward."

When Gao Yue'e was speaking, she was spitting out the heat and spraying Li Yuanlang's ears with itchy discomfort. He hurriedly hid out, dodged Gao Yue'e and pressed her elbow with her explosive convex face, and said righteously: "Boss Gao, please respect yourself. Our countryside is poor and can no longer afford to eat and drink. As for what you said, Secretary Ma likes Linfrogs and good white wine, I will let Han Wei prepare now."

After saying that, he took out the bank card from his wallet and handed it to Han Wei, asking him to buy it quickly according to Gao Yue'e's request and not delay the evening dinner.

Han Wei was puzzled and stood still. Li Yuanlong didn't even bother Gao Yue'e, and pulled him out and said, "Go and buy it quickly."

"Director, this is the woman who deliberately makes things difficult for her. I don't believe Secretary Ma will ask for this."

Han Wei didn't understand the twists and turns here, so Li Yuanlang explained to him that Gao Yue'e must have received instructions from someone, and she didn't have the courage alone.

"Oh, is this what Secretary Ma meant..."

"Stop talking, go quickly!" Li Yuanlang pushed Han Wei.

But Han Wei suddenly turned back after taking two steps and said unfairly to Li Yuanlang: "Director, I don't think you should always give in to Secretary Ma. The more you give in to him, the more he bullies you."

"I know what I know, go quickly." Li Yuanlang patted Han Wei's shoulder and watched him leave before entering the township government building.

I met Zhang Guorui head-on, and Wu Hongli was still following him. It seemed that the two of them were deliberately waiting for him and had something to say to him.

The three nodded to each other. Li Yuanlang did not go in but drove the car out in the parking lot. After that, Zhang Guorui and Wu Hongli got in the car respectively. As soon as he turned the steering wheel out, he drove to a secluded place and asked the two: "Brother Zhang, Sister Wu, please ask if you have anything to say, it's quiet here."

"Liu Shuxi has changed your office to the one that Xiao Zhanwang used to use, and is arranging someone to move. Is this happening?" Wu Hongli was so angry that she couldn't hide the matter in her heart. She poured beans into the bamboo tube and said it first.

"Yuen Long, this must be Ma Shengran's idea. I will see your low posture at today's meeting. This attitude is nothing wrong with doing this. It's not good to force Ma Shengran to do it, but you can't be too wronged." Zhang Guorui handed Li Yuanlong a cigarette, worried.

Li Yuanlang took it and smiled bitterly, "It's not just forcing me to change offices, but also..." Then he shook off all the shameful things that just happened one by one.

"It's too much!" Zhang Guorui was so angry that he crushed half of the cigarette and threw it out of the car window.

Wu Hongli was also angry and patted her thighs, with her face covered with frost. The two of them were in a state of disagreement for Li Yuanlang and calmed down. Zhang Guorui and Wu Hongli asked Li Yuanlang about his next response strategy.

Li Yuanlang smiled at Zhang Guorui in the passenger seat and said four words: "Let it go."

Zhang Guorui immediately understood and turned his head to Wu Hongli and said, "Hongli, Yuen Long has plans, I believe he can handle it." He patted Li Yuanlong's back of his hand and said, "This has made you suffer."

At five o'clock in the afternoon, all middle-level and above leaders in Shuiming Township gathered at Yeyuhua Hotel, and both tables of banquets were set up in a private room.

Eleven members of the Party Committee of Shuiming Township happened to gather a table, and the others were having a meal next door.

During the meal, Ma Shengran was proud and picked up the wine glass and said as the host: "Today can be said to be a great day for our township. First, I would like to congratulate Li Yuanlang on his appointment as the township head, and second, I would like to welcome Sun Qi to work in Shuiming Township. The third is my personal suggestion. Comrade Li Yuanlang has been working in the county before, and has not been the executive deputy township head for more than a month. He has insufficient experience at the grassroots level. I hope that we all will help him more in the future, and hope that elderly people like me, Shuxi, and Tan Gangcanru, Chunqiu, and Fan Zheng will lend a helping hand. Comrade Li Yuanlang is young after all, and there are any shortcomings. I point it out in person. I believe Comrade Li Yuanlang will listen to it pertinently and will repay everyone with practical actions."

This sentence has a deep meaning. It is obvious that Li Yuanlang is young and has little experience. If he is not protected by me, Ma Shengran, in the future, he will be unable to move forward.

Li Yuanlang took the conversation with the opportunity, picked up the glass and said to Ma Shengran and his colleagues here: "Secretary Ma's heart is touching. I also hope that everyone will make clear what they have in person and correct me in person in the future. I will do this glass of wine first to show my heart."

After saying that, Li Yuanlang raised his neck and drank about one or two taels of white wine without blinking, and immediately drank it.

"Hahaha..." Liu Shuxi immediately laughed and said to Li Yuanlang with a wine glass: "Minister Li is really happy. I represent myself in this glass of wine, so I respected Li first."

Before Li Yuanlang could reply, Zhang Guorui reached out and stopped him, "Director Liu, you didn't realize that Secretary Ma had something to say, and you should distinguish the main and secondary things you do."

Liu Shuxi had no choice but to smile awkwardly, sat down and looked at Ma Shengran's face as if he was calm, and stopped talking.

"Since Guorui mentioned this, I happened to say something to everyone." Ma Shengran wiped his mouth. He couldn't hear Li Yuanlang's implicit voice just now, meaning that he warned not to make small moves behind his back.

Ma Shengran heard it into his ears and stabbed into his heart like a needle. He coughed lightly and then said, "Guard Li just said that we should be open and honest in the future, and make it clear in person and not discuss it behind the scenes. I agree with this. I hope that everyone will still remember their eyes and ears, and also form a system to not create any small gangs. Everyone is a member of the same team. He is a comrade in a pot and a comrade in a trench. He should be united and work together to work hard for the future of Shuiming Township."

After Ma Shengran's reminder, Li Yuanlong immediately understood that the reason why Ma Shengran made things difficult for him repeatedly was that he had a heavy blow to Li Yuanlong for suspected gangs and a warning to kill the chicken for the monkey.

Seeing this, Wu Hongli stood up and said, "Secretary Ma said so well. We are all educated. I suggest that we should toast Secretary Ma together for this glass of wine. Secretary Ma has been working hard for our Shuiming Township for most of his life, and he deserves these four words."

"Committee Wu said this well, I agree. Let's collectively pay tribute to Secretary Ma in this glass of wine!" Li Yuanlang held the cup with both hands and faced Ma Shengran. His respectful look made Ma Shengran very helpful.

His originally cold face gradually changed into a smile, no matter whether it was true or false, he showed happiness anyway. "Haha, I, I, Ma, dare not take it for me, and I feel ashamed of it."

"If Secretary Ma is there, you are the pillar of our Shuiming Township. Without you in charge, we all don't know how to work." Li Yuanlang kept promoting Ma Shengran, making him neglect to prevent and not always point the finger at himself.

The sentence of shooting a bird with a gun has been instilled in Li Yuanlang's heart. If you don't show off, you will always be low-key. This will not attract Ma Shengran's attention and is also Li Yuanlang's preservation strategy.

So, everyone stood up and served the cups together to respect Ma Shengran. With a burst of warm laughter, Ma Shengran enjoyed it happily, drank it all immediately, and looked at everyone happily.
