There were not many guests attending the dinner in the evening.
Kuang Chaoqun saw the host and guest couple arriving and immediately came forward to greet him. He took the initiative to hold Long Ruohai's hand and introduced him enthusiastically.
"Xiaolong, let me introduce you. This is Zheng Keru, the organization director of our county party committee. As close as you get to him, this is the best bridge for young people to make progress."
"Hello, Minister Zheng. I would like to ask for your advice in the future." Long Ruohai did not dare to neglect and quickly extended his hand to the chubby middle-aged man opposite with a kind smile.
"Where, where. Xiaolong, don't listen to County Magistrate Kuang's nonsense. The organization department won't look for an outstanding young man like you even if it's a lantern. Teacher Xiaoye is here. Speaking of which, we are not outsiders. Her grandfather is mine.
Teacher, I’ll give you a big hand. After all, I’ll still be a generation older than you.”
Minister Zheng was not as inaccessible as usual. As soon as he said hello, he took the initiative to establish a relationship.
"Yuan Tongqing is the director of our government office. You have known him for a long time, so I don't need to introduce him further."
"Hello, Director Yuan."
"Hello, Long Da. We are old friends, haha."
"This is Director Wu of our reception office, a beautiful woman. This is my secretary Xiao Zhou. This is our biggest financial asset in Ningbei, Zhang Yuejin. This is Boss Zhang's woman, Ms. Tang. Let's get to know each other. What's going to happen in the future?
It’s easy to talk to him."
"Hello, my name is Wu Hongfang. Don't listen to County Magistrate Kuang's nonsense. How dare I say she is a beauty in front of Teacher Ye."
The woman speaking is indeed good-looking. She is an extremely eye-catching woman wherever she is placed.
It’s just that her beauty and Ye Chanjuan’s belong to two different types. The former has plump flesh and fat buttocks, and when she walks, the surging plumpness on her chest will always make a beautiful wave. A pair of deep water-like eyes, always
The latter is petite and exquisite, with a slender figure and looks like an orchid in a deep valley. That baby face is even more endearing.
Long Ruohai had heard about the origin of Director Wu for a long time. But at this time, he didn't think much about it and immediately greeted him warmly: "Director Wu, please take care of me."
Before he finished speaking, he turned around again and said to Zhang Yuejin: "I have long admired your name, Boss Zhang."
In between greetings, he also took the time to shake hands with Secretary Zhou.
The series of movements were dazzling, but they managed to handle it perfectly. Kuang Chaoqun, standing by the side, was smiling and nodding his head. Even Wu Hongfang's big eyes were twinkling.
Eating is simple, but sitting down is a complicated matter.
When Kuang Chaoqun pulled Long Ruohai to sit down at the guest of honour's seat, he was firmly rejected. He said with a smile: "County Magistrate Kuang, if I am still working in the Municipal Bureau, then I am your guest. Take this seat."
It doesn't matter if I just sit down. Now that I'm a member of Ningbei, how can I be so arrogant in front of all the leaders and elders?"
At Long Ruohai's insistence, Minister Zheng of the Organization Department was still allowed to sit in the guest of honor position. When he was about to refuse, Kuang Chaoqun held him down and took the position of deputy guest of honor. At this point, he also
I couldn't hold on any longer, so I had to apologize and sit down next to Magistrate Kuang.
Next, everyone's positions were arranged. Director Yuan sat next to Minister Zheng, and Zhang Yuejin sat down next to Long Ruohai. The three ladies sat next to each other, including Ye Chanjuan in the middle. Only Secretary Zhou was left behind.
, and sat down to pay the bill with a calm look on his face.
"Xiaolong, I'm taking advantage of the arrival of my sister-in-law today to welcome you. Don't have any objections. This event is scheduled a little late. If you don't mind, we two brothers will have a drink first."
Before the dinner started, Kuang Chaoqun revealed the relationship between them with one word. He also apologized to Long Ruohai through joking.
This kind of approach is very rare for the proud County Magistrate Kuang. Not only did Minister Zheng and Zhang Yuejin feel surprised, but Director Yuan, who knew their relationship, also felt a little surprised.
For Zhang Yuejin, it broke the mystery in his heart.
From the first time he asked Kuang Chaoqun to be his guest, to the next time he was the guest of honor, the changes in between made him uncertain. He didn't know what County Magistrate Kuang was selling.
Now I finally know that this guy named Long is indeed not a simple guy. Even a person like Kuang Chaoqun, who has a higher level of ambition, has to treat him as a brother and be close to him. Zhang Yuejin secretly admires himself, this move is considered to be the right one.
Secretary Zhou knew that his leader was adopting a lukewarm strategy towards Long Ruohai. He also knew that Zhu Dingjun, who had a powerful background, was determined to punish Captain Long.
He couldn't figure out why Kuang Chaoqun had such a big change all of a sudden?
Of course, Long Ruohai would not refuse this glass of wine. Since the opponent threw the rugby ball, he had to give it some face. He immediately stood up and drank it all in one gulp.
After drinking the wine, he did not sit down, but said with a teasing smile: "Brother, how can I have any objection? Today is the glory of Chanjuan, not Jie Feng. If you want to drink Jie Feng wine, just wait until next time."
Reply, yes? Big brother."
"You kid, your meal is not over yet, you are already preparing for the next meal. Don't worry, as long as you are in Ningbei, your wine will be indispensable." Kuang Chaoqun also couldn't help laughing, and immediately patted his chest to express his attitude.
.
There was a smile on his face, but he was also a little suffocated in his heart. This Long Ruohai was so powerful that he chose this moment to quietly block him. He calmly exposed his rudeness for not being able to help others.
At this moment, he could only laugh it off. It was a big deal for a man to bend and stretch.
Others could not see the mystery and took it as a joke. With Long Ruohai joining in the fun, the atmosphere on the table immediately became lively. Round after round of toasting attacks began among themselves.
.
Minister Zheng said approvingly: "Captain Long is indeed an elite talent. Not long after he came to Ningbei, he became very popular here. When you go to the street, the people are praising you."
"Minister Zheng, you can't praise me like this. Otherwise, I will be proud. In terms of achievements, it is the county party committee and the county government's good leadership. It is our bureau's party committee's effective command. It is our police officers who participated in the operation and worked together.
.My personal strength is very meager."
Long Ruohai didn't dare to take on such a big credit, so he quickly explained.
"Okay, young man. You are very measured in what you say and do. This glass of wine is for you two. Teacher Ye, please help me say hello to grandpa. He said that he has an old student who is unhappy in Ning.
Bei is waiting for him to come and check his homework."
"Welcome Minister Zheng to our home." After hearing Minister Zheng's witty words, Ye Chanjuan quickly stood up with Long Ruohai.
"Long Da, let me offer you a glass of wine. Your handling of those two rapes was truly a stroke of genius. Old Shen He from our Letters and Calls Bureau has been praising you all day long. There are so many people here and there, so
No one can handle it. Once it's in your hands, the problem can be solved in a matter of words and laughter. I admire you, brother."
Director Yuan also followed and complimented Long Ruohai.
Kuang Chaoqun greatly agreed with Director Yuan's words.
He praised the interface and said: "Xiaolong, don't be too busy being humble. I've also heard about the matter of three generations of the family. It really can't be solved if it's handled by someone else. I never imagined that your face would be so great. It's just me.
If this person who is the county magistrate goes to Province T, he might not even be able to get in."
"Brother, what you said is wrong. There is a gap between people. If I were asked to find someone in the government, I would be blind. Tell me, is this the problem and reason?"
"The truth is right. This face is big enough. Without the help of Director Yan, huh, it is simply impossible to get money from the boss. Lao Zhang, you are also the boss. You said
Tell me, is this the case?"
"That's it, that's it. People always say that it's hard to give up good money. That's the truth. The richer the people, the more reluctant they are to spend such wasted money. In fact, these people have forgotten a basic truth.
.That’s spending money to keep yourself safe.”
Zhang Yuejin finally got a chance to speak and immediately followed the instructions.
After all, he is a graduate of the third year, and he is still very good at speaking. Long Ruohai nodded secretly. A person's success will always have its unusual features. Just a few words, it shows that this person has a good belly.
There is still something in stock.
Seeing everyone singing praises around him, Long Ruohai certainly felt uncomfortable. He stood up on his own initiative and toasted everyone as if he cast a wide net.
He said in his mouth: "Brother, today is not a merit review meeting. If you keep talking, I will get drunk. In this way, I propose a glass of wine to everyone. Please let me drink with peace of mind, okay?"
Hearing that the young man in front of them spoke so humorously, everyone agreed with a smile and drank the wine in response to the call. A few ladies smiled and drank some drinks too.
Director Wu was the most straightforward, and he drank the wine in one gulp. After all, he was the director of the reception office, and his drinking capacity was no worse than that of men.
Ye Chanjuan chatted with her about the customs and customs of Ningbei, which happened to scratch her itch as the director of the reception office.
She introduced the places she had not visited in the afternoon like a treasure trove. From the topography and landforms to the historical origins and the anecdotes of famous people, the two of them had a very interesting conversation and laughed again and again.
Next, everyone changed the topic and talked about everything. Zhang Yuejin was also very easy-going and toasted frequently.
At the end, he stood up and made a toast and said: "Captain Long, one family does not speak the same language. You are the younger brother of County Magistrate Kuang, and also the younger brother of my Zhang. What's the point of working in Ningbei?"
If it's inconvenient, just give me your instructions."
Everyone in the room was a little surprised when they heard Zhang Yuejin's statement.
Ever since Kuang Chaoqun came to work, there has never been anyone else in the eyes of Boss Zhang. I never imagined that he would be so fond of such a young man. Even Kuang Chaoqun has set his sights on his rich elder brother.
Which play are you singing?
It is easy to understand that inviting people to dinner is to pave the way for that useless illegitimate child. What is the purpose of being so polite?
He forgot that the root cause was himself. Without you, County Magistrate Kuang, who is so enthusiastic as a brother-in-law, and someone as snobbish as Zhang Yuejin, how could he put a young man like Long Ruohai in his eyes?
"Where, where. I'm still young. Working in the soil and water of Ningbei, there will definitely be many places where I need to rely on Boss Zhang. If there is any inconvenience, I will definitely trouble you."
When Long Ruohai saw the other party taking the initiative to show his kindness, of course he would not refuse to give him face. Not only did he drink the wine happily, but his reply was also very pleasant.
At the banquet table, although both parties were wary, in person, they also acted like they had hit it off. One party was deliberately trying to make friends and ease the relationship, while the other party was trying to get closer. The end result was, of course, both the host and the guest were happy.
Regarding his words and deeds that night, Long Ruohai said that this was hypocrisy and that he was serving to open up the situation for his work. His wife Ye Chanjuan said that this was hypocrisy and the face of a politician.
