Niu Dongsheng went to the banquet with enthusiasm. This was originally a good thing, but he also brought someone with him, which ruined Chen Taizhong's good mood. "Let me introduce, this is Director Zhou of the Labor Bureau, and this is Director Chen of the Science and Technology Commission."
.”
When Zhou Wuming saw Chen Taizhong, his face became a little uncertain. Chen Taizhong has been on TV several times, how could he not recognize him? He couldn't help but secretly hate him: Today, this is really a bit of a back-up.
Director Zhou's eldest brother took over some road construction work from the Transportation Bureau, and there was still some money to be settled. In addition, the construction of the first road in Surao had already started. He wanted to take on some more work, so he asked his brother-in-law to come forward first.
It doesn't matter if you say "hi" or "five packs". Different classes have different visions, and the fields of eating are also different.
As soon as Zhou Wuming arrived at Niu Dongsheng's small villa, he saw Director Niu's Audi car driving out. He put his head over to say hello before speaking. Niu Dongsheng smiled and waved his hand, "Xiao Zhou, come and have a meal with me.
"
This was said very domineeringly, neither explaining the whereabouts nor the cause and effect. However, the quality of the operation is reflected here. They are both the director. Zhou Wuming not only cannot refuse, but also has to be grateful. Director Niu rarely
There are times when you are so generous.
However, when he saw that the other party was Chen Taizhong, who had caused harm to his relatives, Zhou Wuming felt really bad. Oh, if I had known it was this guy, I wouldn't have come today.
However, now that he is here, he still has to deal with the scene that needs to be dealt with. Thinking that Chen Taizhong may not know what he is thinking, Director Zhou smiled and stretched out his hand, "Haha, hello..."
Chen Taizhong just pretended not to see him, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and showed a harmless smile on his face. He didn't say anything, but just looked him up and down.
Zhou Wuming's hands were just frozen in the air. It was so embarrassing.
"Director Chen?" Niu Dongsheng noticed that something was wrong. He shouted in confusion, with a strong sense of doubt.
"I have admired your name for a long time. Director Zhou." Chen Taizhong ignored Director Niu and nodded to Director Zhou with a bright smile. "Why haven't you seen Zhou You recently? To be honest, I miss him very much. Haha."
Zhou Wuming's expression changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal. He managed a smile. "Who is Zhou You? I don't know this person... Did Director Chen remember the wrong person?"
As he spoke, he retracted his right hand without leaving a trace and brushed his hair naturally. Although his hair was already combed and shiny.
"Let's go. Don't take it seriously. It's quite boring." Chen Taizhong waved his hand casually. "After all, he is a director. He is capable of stabbing people in the back, but he dare not admit it to his face..."
As he spoke, he looked at Niu Dongsheng who was standing there. "Niu Ju, I won't give you the face you have today."
Niu Dongsheng was confused. He looked left and right at the two people around him. He was puzzled. "Taizhong, you... are you mistaken?"
"I just said I made a mistake," Zhou Wuming smiled, but anyone could see the embarrassment in that smile.
"I gave you the opportunity," Chen Taizhong raised his hand and pointed at Director Zhou. The smile on his face became brighter and brighter, "Xiao Ning, go and smash Director Zhou's car for me. The driver will pick it up... you still
Do you remember what the driver looks like?"
As soon as Ding Xiaoning heard this, he stood up without saying a word, turned around and wanted to go out. Zheng Zaifu shook his body, as if he wanted to stop him, but in the end he sat there without moving.
Zhou Wuming was a little frightened when he heard that. However, he saw that the person who was going to smash the car was a cute little girl. He didn't take it to heart, but turned to look at Niu Dongsheng, "Niu Ju, I'm sorry, today
I can’t afford this meal anymore.”
After saying that, he turned around and walked out. How could Chen Taizhong let him go? He snorted coldly, "If you dare to leave, be careful of a car accident on the road."
"My surname is Chen, have I provoked you by recruiting you?" Zhou Wuming couldn't bear it anymore and turned around and pointed at him angrily, "Even if you bully someone, you can't bully them like you, right?"
"Xiao Chen, give me some face," Director Niu finally spoke. Chen Taizhong was making things difficult for the people he brought. He couldn't help but say, "That's it for today. If you miss today..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a commotion outside. He walked to the window and took a look. Well, a lot of people were smashing the Poussin with bricks, iron rods and so on. Everyone was inside.
Not only were there uniformed cyclamen waiters, but there were also police!
Deputy Director Ma of the Development Zone Police Station was taking two people to drink in the lobby. He saw Ding Xiaoning coming out and was about to say hello when he heard Ding Xiaoning greeting Cai Defu, "Boss Cai, I'm going to smash the Poussin at the door. Is anyone here?"
Lend me two."
"What's going on, Xiao Ning?" Deputy Director Ma immediately jumped up, "Fuck, what blind bastard bullied you?"
"It's easy to bully me, but they are plotting against Brother Taizhong." Ding Xiaoning was born as a female bachelor and insisted on speaking. "Do you have a hammer? If not, I will smash it with my head!"
"Damn it, trouble Brother Chen," Deputy Director Ma said without saying a word, picked up the chair and walked out. The two people around him looked at each other, one jumped up and followed him out, the other was more cautious and took off his police uniform.
Then he ran outside.
Among the waiters, there were some who knew Chen Taizhong. For a moment, people in the hall ran out one after another. Most of them were watching the excitement, but there were also a few who were willing to take action.
Ding Xiaoning was so ruthless that he got into his Mercedes-Benz coupe, honked the horn hard, put the reverse gear on, and hit Poussin hard with the butt of the car.
Zhou Wuming was dumbfounded: The Mercedes-Benz hit my Poussin? Was it a little girl who did it?
Even Niu Dongsheng was stunned when he saw it. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Zheng Zaifu and said, "Xiao Zheng, your niece is much better than you. Regardless of right or wrong, look at her courage..."
After a while of commotion, the people who smashed the car dispersed, but there were more people watching. Director Zhou's Poussin was already in terrible shape, the glass was broken, and the front and rear faces were deflated... But it was basically still visible.
It's a car coming.
Zhou Wuming wanted to walk, but looking at the crowd downstairs, he didn't dare to leave: It seems... is it safer in this private room?
Not long after, Ding Xiaoning walked up and said, "Brother Taizhong. His driver is not here. Is that enough... or should we burn it?"
This was not because she had a strong tendency to violence. In fact, Zhou Wuming's driver's slander against Chen Taizhong was the first thing she heard. It was an episode in the accident involving Widow Chang.
"That's enough," Chen Taizhong nodded and turned to look at Zhou Wuming, "That's it for today. If you do any tricks again, it won't be your car that will be unlucky, but you and your family... Do you understand what I mean?
?”
To be honest, he is not an easy person to talk to, but who sent the anonymous letter to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection is really a mystery. Zhou Wuming is suspected, but Zhao Pudi is more suspected.
Therefore, in his mind, a light punishment would be enough. Anyway, this driver actually dared to gossip behind his back. It was impossible not to give him a hint of shame. But since there was no real evidence, there was no need to go too far.
.
Zhou Wuming said nothing, hid his face and went downstairs, never looking back. However, Niu Dongsheng was stunned for a long time before he smiled bitterly and said, "I say you are too loyal. You who shouts about beating and killing, can you be more polite?"
"He handed the dirty materials to the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission," Chen Taizhong glanced sideways at Director Niu and sneered, "Director Niu, what would you do if it were you in my place?"
"Xiao Zhou...isn't he that kind of person?" Niu Dongsheng muttered subconsciously, perhaps to defend himself. But because his voice was a bit loud, it sounded like he was asking a rhetorical question.
"He won't admit it anyway, and you saw it," Chen Taizhong replied lazily.
"If that's the case, it's very polite of you to do so," Director Niu nodded. After a moment's thought, he could infer a lot of things from Zhou Wuming's unnatural reaction. In an instant, the injustice in his heart disappeared.
Already.
Xiao Chen beat up the people I brought here. That really ruined my reputation, but the people I brought here are actually this kind of birdies... It's really fucking embarrassing.
To put it bluntly. In the officialdom, no one’s butt is clean. For the sake of interests, everyone is not convinced by each other, competes in the background, and loses face. This is all normal, but secretly bringing things to the Disciplinary Inspection Commission’s shady people, afterwards
If you still refuse to admit it, you will be inferior to others. This kind of behavior is really not welcome.
"What's going on about traveling around?" Niu Dongsheng couldn't possibly know everything.
"The former boss of Jinghua International Club," Chen Taizhong explained casually, "beat Xu Chunliang, then I smashed it, and Boss Zhou ran away. He is a relative of Zhou Wuming."
"Damn it," Niu Dongsheng stood up with a slap on the table, "You didn't know I told you earlier, how dare you hit Xiao Xu? Wuming is really brave this week."
"Okay, let's not talk about that anymore," Chen Taizhong shook his head at him and smiled, "How was your talk with Xiaoliang? Or was it Subo's five kilometers?"
"Fenghuang has traveled seventeen kilometers here," Niu Dongsheng nodded, smiling brightly, "I returned Subo land. Haha, part of it is an exchange. Everyone wants to save face, right?"
"In terms of money, you have made a profit," Chen Taizhong nuzzled at Zheng Zaifu, "Niu Bureau, Director Zheng... can you promote him again?"
"It's the deputy director who brought it up again, and it's just now. How can I have that ability?" Niu Dongsheng shook his head with a smile.
"Isn't there a Highway Bureau? That's the deputy director's treatment," Chen Taizhong said in an unusually loud tone.
"Oh, Taizhong, please don't embarrass me, okay?" Director Niu was really a little bit confused. He had never seen such a difficult deputy? But Chen was acting ruthlessly, and he had already heard about it. Just now Zhou Zhou
He also clearly saw Wuming's fate.
Director Niu is a master who is easy-going and unwilling to accept others, but the consequences of going against Chen Taizhong are really serious, so he can only try to explain, "I will give the Passenger Transport Office some more power, and that will be okay, Taizhong?"
"
Chapter 980: It can only be understood
"Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore," Chen Taizhong smiled and shook his head, not wanting to talk about Zheng Zaifu anymore, "Anyway, Niu Ju is a happy person, and Xiao Ning's uncle is an honest guy. Just take more care of him in the future."
"Sure," Niu Dongsheng nodded and smiled straight at Ding Xiaoning, "Xiao Zheng is honest. This niece is not like her uncle who crashed her Mercedes-Benz into a car. She is much stronger than her uncle, haha..."
"This child has lost his parents since he was a child. His life has been miserable," Zheng Zaifu answered tremblingly. "He has a tough temper, but fortunately... he has never suffered any serious losses."
"Oh?" Niu Dongsheng looked at Ding Xiaoning in surprise, "I thought she had a spoiled temper. I like this girl. Can she be my goddaughter? My godfather can't do anything wrong to you."
This was purely Director Niu's appreciation and had nothing to do with men or women. Moreover, Ding Xiaoning was originally pure and lovely, so it was normal for others to feel a little pity for him.
Ding Xiaoning looked at him with big eyes, then turned to look at Chen Taizhong. Chen Taizhong didn't think that this guy had the guts to take advantage of him. He just smiled when he heard this. "This is my friend, Niu Ju, you are taking advantage of me."
?”
"Tsk," Niu Dongsheng smacked his lips and couldn't help but laugh, "Sure, I won't take advantage of you, but I really like this girl Xiaoning. If you bully her in the future, I won't be done with you."
After chatting casually for a few words, Deputy Director Ma led people into the private room to toast. After everyone was introduced to each other, Xiao Ma realized that the famous Director Niu was actually sitting in the private room. He felt honored and felt more honored.
a bit.
Fortunately, police officers are more courageous than ordinary people. Although Niu Dongsheng is the traffic chief, the other party is not only an old subordinate of Chen Taizhong, but also a lowly person like the director of the police station. It is not a loss of status to give him face, of course.
He happily accepted the toast from the other party.
"Secretary Chen, what do you want to do with that car?" After the toast, Xiao Ma didn't forget to ask for permission, "I heard it's Zhou Wuming's car?"
"That guy is just a villain," Chen Taizhong smiled and raised his hand, "find a car and drag it to the door of the labor bureau. He can deal with it as much as he likes. Don't stop Lao Cai from doing business. It's true."
These words were so overbearing that Niu Dongsheng was a little frightened. He had seen bullies before, but he had never seen such bullies. Not only did he smash the car, but he actually pulled the car to the door of the labor bureau to show it to the public?
But speaking of conscience, Zhou Wuming wanted the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection to fix Chen Taizhong, and also beat Xu Chunliang. It was normal for Xiao Chen to react so violently, although this kind of normal behavior was not like that of Lian Niu.
Even those who claim to be strong cannot do it.
After Xiao Ma left, there was no one else around the table. Chen Taizhong smiled and asked, "Of the 17 kilometers, how many kilometers does Niu Bureau plan to give Xiaoliang?"
"It's all his," Niu Dongsheng didn't realize what he meant for a moment, and looked at him in surprise, "Xiao Xu got it all, I definitely understand."
"Oh, I...I'm really speechless, haha," Chen Taizhong smiled and shook his head without giving any explanation.
Director Niu was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses and slapped his thigh hard, "Tsk, why am I so confused? Taizhong, based on your understanding, how many kilometers can he eat?"
"He can't eat even one kilometer. He has no one at hand and no equipment." Chen Taizhong looked at him sideways, with a strange smile on his face, "But he still wants to start a cattle game...you know what I mean.
?”
Understand, I understand very well. Director Niu smiled and nodded, but he was making plans in his heart. Obviously, Xiao Chen is helping Xu Chunliang blackmail Xu. Xu plans to start such a project. You have to help pull it off.
A team comes.
There is no equipment to talk about, just buy it. There is no professional talent, but it is a bit distressing. However, doesn’t Niu Dongsheng have someone under his command?
"There happens to be some equipment in the bureau that needs to be eliminated. The price is easy to negotiate," Director Niu made up his mind. Since he wants to curry favor, then he will go to death to curry favor with him. Can we sell the 90% new equipment as scrap metal? Is that okay?
As for people, it’s not a problem. “You can transfer a few professionals from our bureau and count them as secondments. We’ll pay the salary here and get some bonuses and so on over there. Just give it a try, Xiao Chen... Look at me like this.”
Can we arrange it?"
Ah, you are so considerate. A smile appeared uncontrollably on the corner of Chen Taizhong's mouth, which slowly turned into a smile all over his face.
After a long, long time, until Niu Dongsheng was so tired of waiting, he shook his head with a smile, "Niu Ju, what you said to me... won't have the best effect, right?"
Aren't I afraid that Xu Chunliang will push me back? Niu Dongsheng slapped his thigh and said, "Haha, you are still too loyal and loyal. Okay, I know what to do. You are my friend. It was not in vain."
Chen Taizhong smiled and nodded, "Chunliang is thin-skinned, Niu Ju, you... haha."
Director Niu nodded understandingly, and it goes without saying that he felt grateful in his heart. There are hundreds of different types of people, and the personalities of those in power are also different. Those who have the heart to please may not be able to truly please them properly.
It's easy to say that you like people who like them, but it may not be that easy to do. In the officialdom, many people are "accidentally" appreciated by their leaders because of their character, temper and style. In fact, most leaders know it well.
Accident may not be accidental, it just depends on whether the leader is willing to admit it.
Therefore, Chen Taizhong was able to point out Xu Chunliang's thoughts and character, which really helped Niu Dongsheng a lot. At least, he avoided detours. Of course, Director Niu knew how valuable this kind of favor was.
"Xiao Zheng, work hard. Try to reach a higher level within a year or two, and don't betray the trust of me and Director Chen." Niu Dongsheng smiled and nodded at Zheng Zaifu.
If you leave it to a master who won't obey, it means that Director Niu has gone back on his word, and it seems like a slap in the face. Just now he said he was incapable of promotion, and he was just a scumbag, but now he is capable again.
But Chen Taizhong and Zheng Zaifu naturally didn't care. This was Niu Bureau's strong expression of gratitude. It was just in front of his subordinates that the bureau chief wanted to protect his own face. It was really not good for him to be too groveling, so he had to go back on his words.
Anyway, Zheng Zaifu definitely wouldn't think that this was going back on his word, would he?
Therefore, when the meal came to an end, the atmosphere at the dinner table was very harmonious. After the four of them broke up, Niu Dongsheng did not get in the car. Chen Taizhong and Ding Xiaoning walked away, and then he said lightly, "Zaifu, come with me."
Let's go, it's time to eat
This title almost made Zheng Zaifu burst into tears. From "little Zheng" to "Zaifu", what kind of leap is this? Its significance is comparable to that of going from a major to a deputy!
"What do you think of what Xiao Chen did today?" Director Niu asked calmly.
"Zhou Wuming's car should be smashed." Zheng Zaifu spoke categorically. He knew where his fate changed, and he had to protect Chen Taizhong.
"I also think it should be smashed." Niu Dongsheng nodded gently twice, thoughtfully, "However, after smashing the car and dragging it to the labor bureau, it was very satisfying, but it really showed off its sharp edges. This pair
His future development will not be good...you know what I mean when I tell you this, right?"
"Niu Bureau, you want me to remind him tactfully. This is not appropriate for you to say, is it?" Zheng Zaifu guessed what Director Niu meant, but he must give instructions from the leader, right? He is smarter than the leader, then
It was not a good thing that he had been on the bench for many years, which made him realize this truth.
"I admire him very much, um... and your niece. I don't want to see him fall into trouble," Niu Dongsheng nodded slowly, "But I have lost a lot of favors to him, so I feel a little embarrassed to remind him.
said."
I'm embarrassed to say it. Zheng Zaifu was silent. At this moment, he thought about the embarrassment of making a phone call before the meal again. He was on the verge of tears: You two are such strong people, it would be better if you just communicate directly. Why are you always trying to pull me apart?
?
Niu Dongsheng didn't care about his silence. He just thought it was Xiao Zheng's acquiescence. The next moment, he stretched out his hand and looked up at the sky, "Oh, it's raining..."
Not long after Chen Taizhong's car had driven far, he received another call. It was from Nick. The Nigerian congressman said that on Tuesday or Wednesday, an investment company from Hong Kong would go to Phoenix to discuss investment matters.
"Chen, the things you gave me seem to be of very high quality." It was obvious that he was suspecting something.
"Nick, that's just a mortgage to show my ability to repay, do you understand?" Chen Taizhong snorted, "I think your idea is a bit redundant, don't you think so?"
"I very much doubt that you still have a lot of things in your hands," Nick shouted loudly, "Chen, what you do is very chilling to me, you know?"
"Okay then, someone will come to talk to you." Chen Taizhong felt that it was necessary to give this guy a beating. It's not your thing to worry about. What are you doing? His voice suddenly turned cold, "It's just a week.
I hope you guys have a nice chat." Just as he was about to hang up the phone, Nick shouted loudly, "Hey, hey, I was just talking casually, you don't have to take it so seriously, right? As a friend
, can’t we just chat casually?”
Without your words, I would have really gone! Chen Taizhong snorted coldly, thinking to himself that this British man is really that kind of bird, and if he slaps someone in the face, he will immediately behave himself.
"I don't like this kind of joke," he said calmly, "if I asked you to find a dozen beautiful sex workers to work in Phoenix, would you like it?"
"Oh, that's obviously no problem," Nick smiled strangely, "Are you sure you need it? Please state the selection criteria."
I had forgotten that Westerners have very weak views on chastity, even though there are so many Catholics! Chen Taizhong was really too lazy to answer this question, "From Tuesday to Wednesday, they will come to Phoenix, right?"
