Linghe City wants to talk about the most common leisure place, that must be a teahouse. It seems that drinking tea is closely related to people's lives.

The teahouses in Lingnan also have their own characteristics. There are very few teahouses with brick and tile structures, most of which are wooden or bamboo buildings, with a little artistic style from the Ming and Qing dynasties, allowing people to feel the atmosphere of nature.

Sitting by the window, blowing the cool breeze and drinking elegant tea, drove away all the fatigue and fatigue of the day.

Sitting in the private room with a steaming white porcelain teacup, looking through the green bamboo curtains in the window, Xu Peichun was waiting patiently for a meeting with Gao Jianbin.

In that stock market war in Kyoto, the attacking party he led was almost wiped out, which can be said to be the biggest defeat in his life, so he admired this opponent he had never met before.

The bamboo curtain in the private room was lifted up, and a young man in his thirties appeared in front of him. He did not have the arrogance of a young man who was full of energy, nor did he have the smug attitude of the winner, and his facial expression was very plain and gentle.

Xu Peichun felt particularly emotional when he saw that there was a lot of gray hair in Gao Jianbin's hair. This was a manifestation of long-term overuse of his brain. Gao Jianbin was able to go from a farmer's child to a senior party leader today. How much price and effort did he pay, or only he himself understood.

The two did not have a tense confrontation, and shook hands like old friends for many years. After sitting down, Xu Peichun poured tea for Gao Jianbin himself, and everything seemed so natural.

Xu Peichun smiled and said, "First of all, I would like to congratulate Secretary Gao for the great success of the Lingnan International Economic and Trade Fair. It once again proves the legendary means of the Hand of God, and your status in Lingnan. This has become indestructible."

Gao Jianbin also smiled slightly and said, "This success is also due to Comrade Xu Peizhe. Although he no longer serves as mayor of our Linghe City, the one promised investment project has been introduced, but it has been completed. The Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government want to express his sincere gratitude to him. Xu Shao, how is Brother Ling's injury? I was too busy some time ago. The chief inspector and the economic and trade negotiation meeting were held. I really don't have time. It's been easier these two days. I'm planning to go to the hospital to see him."

Xu Peichun said: "I am worried about it when I am working hard. I am here to express my gratitude to my brother. His injury has improved slightly than before, but he cannot get out of bed and walk around. The hospital said he will have to lie down for at least one month."

Gao Jianbin took out a cigarette and handed it to Xu Peichun. Then he also lit one and said, "This time Mr. Xu asked me to meet. If you have any words, please say it's okay."

Xu Peichun said calmly: "I won't beat around the bush. I'll invite Secretary Gao to come, mainly because of the injury of his brother this time. With Secretary Gao's intelligence, it should have a rough judgment. The Zhao family is now in a hurry to release their daughter on bail. The Xu family does not want the Zhao family to do what they want. Both of us have little influence on Lingnan. Strictly speaking, the Xu family's advantages are currently greater. Hou Jun, the vice governor in charge of public security, procuratorial and judicial affairs, is our family, but if things are delayed, the situation will be very unfavorable to the Xu family."

Gao Jianbin nodded and said, "I know what you mean. Zhao Donghui will become the governor of Lingnan by the end of the year. From this point of view, the comparison between the Xu family and the Zhao family will be reversed."

Xu Peichun said with a cold expression: "Secretary Gao, you must have seen my elder brother's injury, as the saying goes, a couple has a hundred nights of gratitude. Don't say that my elder brother just had a meal with a woman. Even if he did something wrong, he shouldn't beat him so badly. What makes our family angry is that the Zhao family has not given an explanation yet. The elders of the Zhao family have not even visited our family, and they have not come to visit my elder brother. This is clearly to bully the Xu family. "

Gao Jianbin said lightly: "Zhao Donghui called me before and asked me to release his niece from the municipal bureau. At that time, the chief was about to come to Linghe City, and I didn't have time to pay attention to him." This sentence was a kind of confidence. A deputy governor and secretary of the municipal party committee actually ignored the instructions of the future governor, which showed that Gao Jianbin was not afraid of colliding with the governor at all.

Xu Peichun said: "To be honest, the Zhao family has developed rapidly in recent years because of its prosperous population. Several provincial and ministerial leaders appeared in the second generation. Among them, the eldest son Zhao Donghua is the most eye-catching. He is an alternate member of the Political Center. From this point of view, the Xu family is not as good as the Zhao family. Because the second generation of our family, my father's generation, only a provincial and ministerial leader was released when the term changed. The Zhao family thought they had surpassed the Xu family, so they broke up the alliance relationship and established a new circle with their family as the leader. My elder brother's affairs were just a fuse. Such a move was equivalent to even the last layer of fig leaf being exposed."

Gao Jianbin slowly spat out a mouthful of smoke and said, "When it comes to the struggle between the families, I, a deputy governor, will not play much role. Your roots are all in the upper class."

Xu Peichun said: "Precisely because both families are in Kyoto, you must be extra careful when doing things. That is the core of the country. If the battle between the two sides attracts the attention of senior officials, neither the Xu family nor the Zhao family will have good results. Therefore, we can only do a small-scale game in the local area. The Xu family's requirements are very simple. Secretary Gao sent the Zhao family's women to prison and we can pay the price you want."

Gao Jianbin was silent for a while and said, "Your requirements are too high, and I am really powerless. Besides, the overall situation in Lingnan does not allow me to do this. Sooner or later, Zhao Donghui and I have a fierce collision, but I only consider working and will not involve conflicts between the family. Also, the Zhao family and I did not violate the rivers and sent the bloodline of the other person to prison, which would inevitably lead to a deep hatred."

He also said: "You know that I am a leading cadre without foundation and a rural family. I can't compare with you families with good roots. I don't want to get into such trouble. Your elder brother's father-in-law is Zhao Donghua. I want me to compete with an alternate member of the Political Center, which is a bit whimsical?"

Xu Peichun was not surprised at all. If Gao Jianbin had easily agreed to go against the Zhao family because of such simple conditions, such a partner would be stupider than a pig. He would definitely turn around and leave, and would not even say a word of extra words.

Xu Peichun said: "Secretary Gao, let's open the skylight and speak loudly. I know that you may not be worried about conflict with the Zhao family. We all know this clearly. The Zhao family will definitely not dare to provoke the joint efforts of the Zhang family and the Li family. In addition, Vice Premier Jin favors you, and there is no threat to the alternate member of the Political Center."

Then he said: "From your information, your future achievements will definitely not be as simple as a rank-level official. Anyone who achieves great things must be far-sighted, just like a game on a chessboard, taking three steps. You have gradually opened up the situation in Lingnan, and the faction has initially formed a scale. As long as you have enough patience, this place will inevitably become a camp for the Gao family army. But if your layout only has such a little vision, then I admit that I have misread the person."

There was no fluctuation on Gao Jianbin's face. He said, "If Mr. Xu were in ancient times, he would definitely be a very powerful lobbyist. I seem to be a little moved by you now. Although the pie drawn invisible and intangible, it is better to have it than not. Tell me about the specific one!"

Xu Peichun smiled and said, "I believe we will find a common language, because you and I are good at seizing every opportunity. Transactions require a basis for equality. Although the Xu family seems to be incompetent to outsiders, I dare say that even among so many families in Kyoto, there will be no more people who truly surpass our family than a slap."

Then he said: "My confidence or the confidence of the Xu family comes from my grandfather. Before he retired, he was not only a senior executive at the core of state power, but also served as the Minister of State Organization. Secretary Gao. You should be familiar with the energy of this position? In just five years, you can fully imagine how much value you have created, not to mention that my grandfather himself also has many old subordinates."

Gao Jianbin nodded gently. Unless a leading cadre has a broken mind, no one does not understand how powerful the first minister is. The National Organization Department is an institution that controls the fate of leading cadres at the vice-provincial and ministerial level and above, and is also the most important core department of the Political Center Committee. Its power is quite amazing. The opinions of the Organization Minister have strong authority on personnel appointments and removals, so this position is often held by members of the Political Center.

Xu Peichun continued: "At present, many leaders in the Political Center Committee have been promoted or helped by my grandfather to put the right people in the right position. This is a matter within the organization minister. It is not that he deliberately wants to win people's hearts for the Xu family. If he thinks that way, he will belittle the noble feelings of the older generation of leaders. Even so, those who have made progress and promotion and their fate have been changed will definitely be grateful to my grandfather. This is the reason why most other families in Kyoto dare not confront the Xu family head-on."

Gao Jianbin said, "This is also the reason why the Zhao family is willing to marry the Xu family?" Xu Peichun said calmly, "You are right, it is indeed because of this reason. Secretary Gao, to say something disrespectful, I know that you have been an orphan since childhood, and the uncles and aunts in the family have unfortunately passed away. So you, who are alone, don't understand how difficult it is for a big family to continue."

Handing Gao Jianbin a cigarette, Xu Peichun said again: "We, who seem to be glorious, are fighting for the life of our family all the time. How can we end up with the nest collapse? The trees fall and the money scattered. These are all real manifestations. Whether my elder brother pursues Miss Zhao or the two families form an alliance, it is all for this reason. Judging from the struggle between countries, the truth is the same."

Gao Jianbin said: "Young Master Xu, I feel that you rarely say so much to people. Living in such an environment is very depressing?"

Xu Peichun looked at him and said, "Your words are very skillful. If you can choose, I would rather live in the countryside like you. At least I have some temptations, not the bargaining chips that the family can mercy. Yes, the family gives me a lot of food and clothing, and receives the best education. BMW, car, red wine, and beauty, even senior leaders at the provincial and ministerial level should give some face. Even if I don't bully others, no one dares to go against us easily. To put it badly, that is the privileged class."

Then he said: "There is no free lunch in the world. If you get it, you have to pay. If the family gives you everything, you will not belong to yourself. Unless you are a person who is too lazy to train, you will face such treatment as me. I told others, who do you tell me? Most people must think that I am full. Can they understand my desire to breathe and lure the air?"

Gao Jianbin called the waiter to re-cook the tea and said, "Young Master Xu, the core of this problem is that the procuratorate and the court are both relatively duli systems, especially the procuratorate. The superiors and subordinates are the relationship between leaders and leaders, and the relationship between superiors and subordinates and supervisors is different from the relationship between superiors and subordinates of the court. It is true that I am the secretary of the municipal party committee, but I do not have the ability to directly interfere in the work of the procuratorate and the court."

Xu Peichun said: "This sentence is true from the national regulations. However, Zhao Ziqian, the procurator general of the Provincial Procuratorate, was dismissed, the old secretary of Lingnan completely withdrew from his leadership position, and the large-scale personnel changes of the Linghe Municipal Procuratorate, you cannot deny that it has nothing to do with you? It is said that these two systems are highly unified, but Wang Houmin, the president of Linghe Municipal Court, and Qian Pengyun, the procurator general of the Provincial Procuratorate, should be members of your faction. In addition, Chang Haiyu, the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, has been arrested by the public security bureau, and the public security procuratorial and judicial system. With such a network, as long as no one exerts pressure, I feel it is easy to send that woman to prison."

Gao Jianbin did not deny it and said, "What he said is indeed true. But once and forth, the Liang family's relationship network is not comparable to the Zhao family. In this matter, even Secretary Fang will not make any statement easily. Can you guarantee that the Xu family has an absolute advantage in these two systems?"

Xu Peichun's smile was very strange. He said, "Secretary Gao may not know. Which family can compare to the Zhang family in terms of connections in these two systems? As long as Zhang Wenhua comes forward, I dare to promise. The Zhao family can only stare at him in a hurry, and there is no way."

Gao Jianbin was not surprised by his plan and said with a smile: "Young Master Xu is really planning and every link is perfect, but you also know that I am not a member of the Zhang family, but only a member of the direct line. Whether the Zhang family will agree to my request is one thing, and whether I want to use this relationship is another thing. If the price is higher than the rewards obtained, it is very unprofitable."

Xu Peichun said: "Of course I won't do that kind of thing that makes money by nothing. Zhang Wenhua is now the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee and has to go through the governor to get the position of secretary. If our Xu family can help him shorten this time, do you think it's cost-effective?"

Gao Jianbin said calmly: "The secretary of a province needs to decide by the Standing Committee of the Political Center. Everyone knows what that position means, are you so sure?"

Xu Peichun said: "Zhang Wenhua has outstanding political achievements in Nanjiang Province. He is very capable and can promote you from township leaders. This is also a great contribution for him. The leaders of the Standing Committee of the Political Center are still optimistic about him. It is just because Nanjiang Province has not been very ideal in recent years, and his path to progress has been blocked. If my grandmother comes forward to find several leaders, there is not much resistance to this matter. And I know that the secretary of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province will arrive at the station. You also know that the weight of this position is very clear. You can't escape as a member of the zhongyāng. Secretary Gao, is our Xu family sincere enough?"

Gao Jianbin's eyes were still so peaceful, and he said, "The Xu family's attitude of cooperation is very sincere at the time of paying such a price. I have no doubt about this. What Secretary Zhang Wenhua lacks is the opportunity to promote. You have such ability but do not have the right people. This combination is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone, which shows the strategy and wisdom of the helmsman of the Xu family. I also realized from it that the Xu family and the Zhao family are determined to fight together. That's great. Then, on behalf of Secretary Zhang Wenhua and the Zhang family, I agree to your request, and this woman's affairs will be done as you said."

Xu Peichun said: "Secretary Gao was not at a loss this time. Although this woman's reckless behavior did not make too much trouble, there were some reports from the Internet media that had a certain impact on the urban image of Linghe City and also had harm to the image of Linghe Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. The provincial party committee removed the acting mayor who had just taken office for less than a month. It was probably because the leaders felt uncomfortable, which was like slapping themselves."

He also said: "When you gave the order to arrest that woman, you probably didn't plan to let it go easily, otherwise the municipal bureau would not cooperate with the work of the provincial department so much. The procuratorate and the court were also actively preparing materials for prosecution and trial. However, I don't think you plan to fight alone. It seems that you have been waiting for the alliance to appear. The consequences will be transferred to the partners. Your pressure can be reduced to a minimum. I suspect now that you have expected that I will come to you."

Gao Jianbin said: "Don't think of me so cleverly. This is because Mr. Xu analyzed the matter too thoroughly, so I had no other choice. Besides, I just helped to applaud, and there was no big loss."

Xu Peichun snorted and said, "If I dare to ignore your wisdom, I am afraid that if you sell it, I will help you count the money. Many people just don't take you seriously, but their fate is a bit miserable or even miserable. Secretary Gao, don't you want to hear what the price I give you?"

Gao Jianbin took a sip of tea and said, "Since I entered the officialdom, Secretary Zhang Wenhua has been kind to me and can repay him, my wish will be fulfilled, and I will eventually have to walk my own path." (qidian.)m.qidian.Read.)
