Zhang Aimin took Mayor Liu's inscription and was satisfied. He thanked him repeatedly. He watched Liu Fei and his assistant enter the gate before getting in the car and leaving. He turned on the radio and saw that the traffic station was playing a song request program. Suddenly, his mind became hot and he took out
I called on my mobile phone, and it was amazing. The traffic hotline that had always been busy no matter how I called it was connected immediately this time.
"Hello, director, I want to ask a song for our Mayor Liu, who just made my car." Zhang Aimin couldn't restrain his excitement and said.
The director asked Zhang Aimin to wait for the previous song to finish playing, and then switched his call to the host. Zhang Aimin often listened to programs, but this was the first time he made a call and could hear his own voice on the radio.
For the first time, bursts of audio howling came from the car radio. The host asked Zhang Aimin to turn off the interference source and start the conversation.
"I just had a guest here. He was dressed quite ordinary. Guess who it is, it's our Mayor Liu from Omi..." Zhang Aimin recounted his adventures, and finally said that he wanted to order a song for Mayor Liu, "
Good people have a safe life."
The host said: "Thanks to this enthusiastic listener for letting us know that there is a good leader in Omi who cares about citizens' travel and his brother's sister. However, there is currently no good person in our music library who has a safe life, so let us use a song by Yuquan's "Running"
"To Mayor Liu Fei and my brothers and sisters who are running on the road."
Zhang Aimin turned on the radio, and a powerful melody and singing voice came: "The speed is seventy miles, and the mood is free..."
At this moment, thousands of taxi drivers in Omi were listening to the same song.
…
Liu Handong sent Shu Fan back to the villa, parked the car, and took a taxi back. The car radio was playing a program from the Traffic Station. When the driver heard the mayor's private visit to investigate the taxi industry in private, he couldn't help but shake his head and said: "
What's the point? The biggest burden of driving a taxi is the share of the money. I bought the car and drove the car. The company charges me six to seven thousand yuan a month. What the hell are you doing? If you have the ability, just do it.
He took away his share of the money and I kowtowed to him and burned incense."
Liu Handong didn't pay attention to what was being played on the program. He was focused on the "Grandma Pan" he picked up. If he could make use of this relationship, his career would be just around the corner.
Back at Huanghua Community, Wang Yulan had already laid out a table of sumptuous meals. Grandma Pan was sitting high in the middle, with a napkin around her and a soup bowl, bone plate, and wine glass in front of her. Wang Yulan was picking up vegetables and pouring water, and she was so attentive that Ma Ling couldn't help but look at her.
She stopped rolling her eyes and saw Liu Handong coming in. She whispered to him, "When my grandma was here, my mother was never so filial."
Liu Handong smiled and passed by. After dinner, Qi Qingyu called and said that the train tickets had been bought and the sleeper train departed from the old railway station at 11 o'clock at night to Beijing. Don't make a mistake.
A few hours before eleven o'clock, Liu Handong chatted with the two old men and learned that the old man's surname was Nie. Ten years ago, his son was involved in a murder case.
I was wronged and sold my house. I have been petitioning for ten years, but to no avail.
"There are a lot of things like this, and there's really nothing we can do about it." Liu Handong was very sympathetic, but there was nothing he could do.
Grandma Pan was filled with righteous indignation: "How can the political and legal agencies disregard human lives? I will go to their leaders!"
Everyone just agreed and made the old lady happy.
After chatting for a while, the old lady got tired. Wang Yulan helped her to rest. The old man made the floor in the living room. Liu Handong took two changes of clothes and went out to take a taxi and went straight to the train station.
Qi Qingyu was already waiting at the entrance of the old train station. Since the rise of high-speed trains, there have been fewer and fewer passengers taking ordinary trains. The old train station is much more depressed than before. The two checked in and waited for an hour before queuing up to board the station.
car.
This is a red leather express train with hard-sleeper carriages with upper and lower berths. The journey from Omi to Beijing takes nine hours. After a night's sleep, I will arrive at the station to do some work tomorrow morning.
As the train headed north, Qi Qingyu took out Erguotou liquor, ham sausage, and peanuts. The two had a few drinks and talked about their careers. Qi Qingyu was very ambitious and said that this trip to Beijing was of great importance and he must not mess it up.
"I am still carrying tens of millions of dollars in debt. I will spend your money in half. Of course, I can't save it on the leader. I can only save money on myself. Try not to fly. No.
I will stay in a high-end hotel and not eat in restaurants. I will bring you here with me this time to play a supervisory role for me." Qi Qingyu said with a smile.
"What are you talking about? I still can't trust you." Liu Handong raised the small square bottle of Erguotou and said, "Take one."
After drinking some wine, they went to the sleeper berth and fell asleep. When they woke up, the conductor began to exchange tickets and prepare to get off. Half an hour later, Qi Qingyu and Liu Handong stood in front of Beijing Station, surrounded by bustling passengers, and the eight o'clock sun shone brightly.
It feels warm all over my body.
"Have you been to Beijing before?" Qi Qingyu squinted his eyes and held a cigarette. Seeing the middle-aged aunt wearing a red armband looking at her with eager eyes, Qi Qingyu didn't dare to light it.
"This is the first time." Liu Handong looked around, "Beijing is so big, it is estimated to be as big as eight Omi and twenty Jiangbei cities."
"After finishing the business, I will take you around to see the Forbidden City, the Summer Palace, and the Great Wall. If you don't visit the Great Wall, you must be a true man." Qi Qingyu said with a smile.
The two of them stayed at a small hotel in a nearby residential area, had breakfast, and rented an old Audi A6 with a Beijing license plate. It also had a manual transmission. Qi Qingyu explained that the money had to be spent, and he couldn't live without a car in Beijing.
, and the car shouldn’t be too bad, otherwise you won’t be able to get through the gates of many units.
Then he started to contact me. After making a few phone calls, he said that the arrangements were made. See you in the evening. Let's take a look around first.
The two drove around Beijing, visited the Summer Palace in the morning, went to the Military Expo in the afternoon, and had a casual dinner together. They waited until 8:30 in the evening before a call came and asked Qi Qingyu to go to a certain hotel.
Liu Handong immediately drove there. The hotel was located in the Second Ring Road. It was a very high-end hotel with a gorgeous lobby. Four well-dressed men came down from upstairs. Qi Qingyu hurriedly went up to talk to him. One of them, wearing glasses, shook hands with him and exchanged greetings. He even took a photo.
Patting him on the shoulder and saying something with a smile, Qi Qingyu waved his hand in this direction. Liu Handong immediately went to the front desk to pay the bill. The computer printed out the detailed bill, including the drinks, which totaled 28,000 yuan!
Liu Handong was extremely shocked when a meal cost NT$30,000. After a closer look, there were only a few dishes. A bottle of wine cost NT$8,000 and only opened two bottles. He couldn't bear to bear the child but couldn't trap the wolf, so he reluctantly paid the bill. The man wearing glasses stepped forward.
I reported the name of my company and asked the waiter to convert the 28,000 yuan into a hospitality fee.
Qi Qingyu said: "Xiao Liu, let me introduce to you, these people are..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted: "Mr. Qi, you brought the car here, just in time to see us off before the next scene."
Qi Qingyu agreed wholeheartedly, but the Audi car could not seat so many people, so he had to let Liu Handong take them there first, and he took a taxi and arrived later.
So Liu Handong drove them to a club in the suburbs and listened to their chats along the way. He knew that these four people were managers of state-owned enterprises and had a lot of power in their hands. They often worked on large projects worth tens of millions or hundreds of millions.
The club is located at the foot of Xiangshan Mountain and has no sign to the public. The parking lot is full of luxury cars. The Audi A6 can only be considered a low-end product here.
The four of them entered the club shoulder to shoulder. Liu Handong was waiting in the parking lot. After a while, Qi Qingyu caught up with him in a taxi. He walked into the club and came out within five minutes. He got in the car and sat with Liu Handong, lighting a cigarette and smoking.
Sighing: "It's boring, just like his mother's grandson."
The cigarette butt flashed brightly and dimly, and Qi Qingyu's face in the darkness was full of vicissitudes of life.
After sitting in the car like this for several hours, the mobile phone rang at two o'clock. Qi Qingyu woke up with a start, answered the phone, and called Liu Handong to go in and check out.
When I checked out, I was dumbfounded. I spent 278,000.
The two of them looked at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you, but they didn't say anything.
I spent less than 300,000 yuan in one night. How did I spend this money? The guy wearing glasses came out, drunk: "Mr. Qi, thank you for your hard work."
"Director Qian, what about me?" Qi Qingyu asked cautiously.
"Oh, that matter is more complicated. Didn't the original company merge? The people in charge have changed twice. It's quite troublesome to find the original files. Just wait for notification. I will tell you when there is news."
Qi Qingyu had no choice but to settle the bill first. His hands were shaking when he handed over his bank card. Liu Handong cursed in his heart. The owner who can waste money like this must not be a good person.
Director Qian went back to his room, while Qi Qingyu and Liu Handong came out to continue waiting for orders.
"What on earth do these people spend? Can they spend the price of a luxury car in one night?" Liu Handong was puzzled.
"Good wine and good food always have a price. These days, there is no upper limit on the price of playing with people." Qi Qingyu said, "Have you not heard that those female celebrities have clearly marked prices? You can only think of it, but there is nothing you can't do.
.”
"Can you get things done with money?"
"I can't guarantee it. I'm giving you face by allowing you to spend this money. How many people want to help them settle the bill but never get the chance. Even if you can't do it, you can't lose face and piss them off. Don't even want a penny."
Qi Qingyu's tone suddenly became cheerful, "No matter what you say, if you spend this money, you will gain something. I have a hunch."
It was not until ten o'clock in the morning that the four distinguished guests came out of the club radiantly, still well-dressed and dignified. Qi Qingyu got out of the car in a hurry, walked up with a pair of red eyes, and talked with a smiling face, but they ignored him at all.
, exchanged a few words casually, and then left in two Mercedes-Benz cars.
Qi Qingyu walked back chatteringly, got in the car and said let's go too, go back and have a good sleep, and maybe come out again at night.
Liu Handong finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked: "Who owes whom money?"
Qi Qingyu said: "The uncle is the one who owes the money now. I don't dare to expect to get it all back. I can just get half of it."
Liu Handong asked who was specifically responsible for this matter, and Qi Qingyu said it was Director Qian who wore glasses.
"Do you know where he lives? How many people does his family have? Are there any children?" Liu Handong's eyes flashed with a stern look.
"What are you going to do?"
"If I don't do anything, if he doesn't pay me, I have my own solution."
