"No prizes, no prizes, but she is also engaged in education and is an English teacher in the city's No. 1 Middle School!"
Xue Laosan didn't want to dwell on this issue anymore and simply kicked the ball to the Sumei people.
"No wonder. Is it convenient for you to ask your lover to attend this report?"
As soon as his reverie faded, Teacher Li immediately concentrated on his work.
"No problem, she is from the education field and I believe she will be happy to communicate with your school!"
Xue Laosan quickly agreed and said, "Teacher Li, go ahead and do your work. There seems to be someone playing poker over there. I'll go over and watch the game."
With that said, Xue Laosan went on his own without waiting for Teacher Li to say anything.
He really didn't want to face Teacher Li. Firstly, the atmosphere was awkward, and secondly, somehow, he could always see the figure of the woman drifting away from the scarf around her neck.
Under the big locust tree on the northwest slope, four people were sitting around on spread out white sheets, playing poker.
Xue Laosan had no intention of watching the battle, but in order to avoid that Teacher Li, since he spit out this excuse, he had to fulfill it.
He then walked not far from Lao Huai and sat quietly, pretending to watch the battle.
The four people played the game of leveling up, where two by two formed a team to fight. This card game was also the favorite of the little ones and the Sumerians at home.
Xue Laosan didn't care about playing cards, so he just wanted to sit quietly for a while and then moved to another place. Who knows, after sitting for a while, he was reluctant to move.
"Jockey Club, you are so lucky today that I can't say enough about it. I feel like I've been able to grow old with you."
The speaker was a thin man with four eyes, shuffling cards and collecting money while talking, with a smile on his face.
After having a hard time playing the card game, the thin man with four eyes collected four yuan for the cards. According to this calculation, the win or loss is very likely to be hundreds.
And with today's living and wage levels, a card game where you can win or lose hundreds of dollars is considered a big gamble.
However, Xue Laosan knew that it was a key middle school. Most of the students there came from the families of public servants. If they were to be in later generations, they would be called a noble school.
In other words, the parents of these students are from the upper class of society. When they get together, they want to save face. They are also very competitive. It is normal for them to spend half of their monthly salary to play cards.
Of course, what Xue Laosan paid attention to was not the size of the card game, but the conversation between several people that aroused his interest.
After listening for a while, he had almost figured out the identities of the four people.
The thin man with four eyes seemed to be the sales section chief of some food factory. Although he was a low-ranking official, he could not stand up to the rich salary. He had the lowest position among the four, but he was able to integrate into the circle. This is enough to show his energy.
The person he called "horse bureau" was the deputy director of the Baofeng District Finance Bureau, and he held the most prestigious position among the four.
The thin man with four eyes, the fat man with a fair face on the left, is the chief of the administrative section of the Baofeng District Taxation Bureau, and the red-faced middle-aged man on the right is the chief judge of the Tribunal of the Baofeng District People's Court.
The four of them do not have high official ranks, so they can be said to have just entered the officialdom.
But it is these people who occupy the largest part of the officialdom, and the information harvested from them can sometimes reflect the political issues and people's livelihood issues of a place more accurately than Xue Laosan does no matter how much research he does or how many reports he listens to.
But he said that the thin man with four eyes and a square beard was the director of the horse racing department. The fat man with a white face said, "That's right, you have gained a lot of glory this time. The horse racing bureau is now very lucky and will soon be appointed as the No. 1 of the Baofeng District Finance Bureau."
Well, I have nothing to say, tonight I will be the host to celebrate the horse racing bureau!"
The white-faced fat man finished speaking, the four-eyed thin man and the red-faced middle-aged man each had a look of shock on their faces. Indeed, they had not heard the news that Director Ma was going to be promoted to a regular job. They were surprised, and they all looked up at Director Ma. Look.
Director Ma waved his hand reservedly, "Don't listen to Old Liu's gossip. The boss above is studying and discussing, playing cards and playing cards. It's rare to have free time. Why talk about these baseless things!"
Everyone here is a discerning person. As soon as the words "research and discussion" came out, everyone knew about Director Ma's appointment and was probably close to him. At that moment, there was another series of congratulations.
Director Ma said a few polite words and said, "Brother, it is indeed my luck. It coincides with Mayor Xue's new policy and the city requires rectification of the cadre team. Otherwise, it would be my turn to take the lead!"
It turns out that Director Ma's boss, the former director of the Baofeng District Finance Bureau, was dismissed when Xue Laosan began to mobilize cadres on a large scale. It was precisely because of this that Director Ma had the opportunity to come forward.
It's just that Xue Laosan didn't expect that these people would rename a series of actions he took after taking power as "Mayor Xue's New Deal."
While he was smiling, he thought about it carefully. Since he took charge of Dejiang, he had refreshed the official administration, rectified the economy, and laid off officials. This was indeed an attempt to reinvent the old and replace it with the new.
What surprised him even more was that the topic quickly turned to "Mayor Xue's New Deal", and the discussion became more and more lively.
"If you ask me, our Dejiang is like a patient suffering from chronic illness. This patient can't be saved by old Chinese medicine doctors like Secretary Zhou and Mayor Kong. We have to let Mayor Xue, who is young, energetic and capable, be saved." Only with courageous leadership can we sweep away the ills and cure Dejiang with great determination!"
"I absolutely agree with what the Horse Racing Bureau said. I have to say that I absolutely cannot believe that others can do earth-shattering things. But our Mayor Xue was simply born for earth-shattering things. Otherwise, where would we be in Dejiang today?" The last time I heard about the city change, my cousin who works in the Yinshan Administrative Office said that when Yinshan’s leader was angry, he slammed the table and said that Yinshan failed to change the city, and the only one less than Dejiang was Xue Xiang!"
"The New Deal is better. Although it was comfortable to live in the past, the atmosphere of staleness is too strong, and the whole office environment is obviously wrong. Since the New Deal, all units have been old, weak, sick and mediocre. Mayor Xue is right, I would rather spend money in vain. Maintaining this group of people must not allow the work efficiency to drop. In the past, we only had about ten people in a small department. After the New Deal, the staff was reduced by half, but the work efficiency increased more than ten times. In the past, one thing Son, although it is divided into ten people to do it, everyone is afraid that they will do too much. Now it’s better, everyone has the responsibility, and everyone has their own responsibility, how can it not be fast!"
"Chen Ke said that work efficiency has been accelerated. I absolutely agree with this. I have a cousin who went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to apply for marriage some time ago. It was very difficult. I did it over and over again for four or five days, but there was no result. My sister-in-law was so angry that she had a big quarrel with my cousin and almost broke up. As soon as the new policy came out, I called my cousin and asked him to take care of it right away. Sure enough, what happened in five days was done in five days. It’ll be done in minutes!”
"………………"
Listening to this group of people talking, Xue Laosan couldn't help but smile on his face. Indeed, even a martial arts saint like Mr. Guan, who loves to hear good words and wears high hats, is inevitably vulgar, let alone Xue Laosan.
Besides, the highest level of flattery is...
At this time, the four Directors Ma did not know his identity as Xue Laosan, and they could see the authenticity of his praise, but they coincided with it.
As a result, Xue Laosan's sense of accomplishment was almost full.
After listening for a while, Xue Laosan stood up and felt helpless. Listening to good words was like eating meat. There were too many and he was not used to it.
Unexpectedly, he stood up and heard the horse director say, "Hey, young man, help me hold on, I'm going to be a big one. Damn it, I already told the guests that the weather is not going to be very cold. It's been two days."
I couldn’t eat anything, but I didn’t listen. The buns I was given to eat in the morning were the buns from the day before yesterday. My stomach is so irritated that I have to deal with it."
After saying that, he covered his stomach and left in panic, without collecting dozens of dollars from the ground.
As a favor, Xue Laosan didn't show any pretense, so he came over and sat in Director Ma's seat and started to draw cards.
In fact, he didn't have much thought about playing cards. It was just a little kid who had this hobby, so he occasionally got involved in it. He mostly used his skills to make her happy.
This time, it was purely an accidental encounter, and there was no competition for victory or defeat, so Xue Laosan gave up his skills, and casually memorized and made cards, grabbing and playing cards like an ordinary player.
I was lucky, and I cooperated with the thin guy with four eyes. In the end, I bought the bottom in pairs. One guy turned over more than 300 points, and one of the other two offered 15 yuan.
Just in time, Director Ma turned back and said with a smile, "My luck is beyond words. If you just find a 'picker', you can kill everyone!"
Xue Laosan stood up. Director Ma said politely and asked him to continue playing. However, Xue Laosan refused. Director Ma picked up Zhang Datuan from the ground and gave it to Xue Xiang.
Don’t let others help you in vain, just use it to buy cigarettes!”
After saying that, he grabbed the poker and started shuffling the cards.
Xue Laosan shook his head and smiled, not bothering to push around with him for the ten dollars, so he put the money in his pocket and was about to leave when he suddenly heard a loudspeaker shouting, "Students and parents, let's keep going.
, I believe everyone is hungry too, so go to Cuiwei Pavilion and start preparing lunch!"
As soon as the trumpet sound died down, earth-shattering cheers erupted from all over the slope.
The core of this outing is the dinner party. All the furry kids packed their bags and brought a lot of ingredients and kitchen utensils just to show off their skills at the dinner party.
After playing wildly for a long time, the little kids were indeed hungry and were eager to start cooking.
The Kingfisher Pavilion is not far from the green slope. Along the winding mountain road, the children played and watched the mountains and birds. The forty-minute mountain road was not too long.
As soon as they arrived at the place, Xue Laosan couldn't help but cheer in his heart.
The pavilion was completely different from the wooden octagonal pavilion he had expected. It was not even artificially carved, but a huge cliff that naturally grew in the shape of a pavilion. A broken stele was erected by the roadside, with the words "Cuiwei" faintly visible on the stele.
The word, I think this is the reason why Cuiwei Pavilion got its name.
At first, Xue Laosan didn't understand why the dinner was held in Cuiwei Pavilion. But when he saw the giant stone pot on Cuiwei Pavilion, he understood.
The stone pot is not natural. There are obvious traces of artificial carving. There is a huge stove made of red mud under the stone pot. It is convenient for the little kids to put the dry wood they picked up earlier into it for firewood. However, the appearance
