Chapter 590 Learn from your brother Jie well (10,300) Good night
"I'm really honored. Director Zhang has also heard of me?" Cao Shujie asked with a smile.
He was sure that he had no contact with Zhang Shuo, but where did Zhang Shuo hear about it?
This is very interesting.
Li Guorui, director of the Environmental Protection Bureau, was also curious: "Lao Zhang, where did you hear about it? Why didn't I know?"
"You just went to check environmental protection, what do you know?" Zhang Shuo teased him.
Several people burst out laughing.
After laughing, Zhang Shuo saw that they were all looking at him curiously, and he did not ask any more riddles. He said, "I heard what Deputy County Magistrate Huang said."
"Huang Limin?" said Xie Yizhong, the head of the tax bureau.
Zhang Shuo nodded: "Our county does not have a second County Magistrate Huang."
Lian Xuezhu was a little puzzled. He asked: "Old Zhang, why does my nephew still let County Magistrate Huang and others discuss it?"
"It is said to be related to Qingshi Town Industrial Park." Zhang Shuo mentioned.
After finishing speaking, he looked at Cao Shujie: "Xiao Cao, I heard that the industrial park in your town has a lot to do with you, is it true?"
At this point, Cao Shujie didn't hide it. He nodded and said, "It has something to do with it."
"Our factory is about to build the second phase. Secretary Liu and Mayor Luo of our town have discussed planning an industrial park to better develop the economy of Qingshi Town."
The people here are not laymen who know nothing. After hearing what Cao Shujie said, Fang Qiang, director of the Economic Development Bureau, asked him directly: "Xiao Cao, how big is your second-phase project?"
This is the point of the question.
Cao Shujie smiled modestly, and then said: "It's not very big. It covers a total area of 5,300 acres."
Everyone here felt like they had toothache, except Lian Xuezhu who already knew the inside story.
They know very well that if Cao Shujie's second-phase project can really be implemented, then this project will rank second in Pingyuan County in terms of scale, and the first project will be a chemical plant.
"This is a big deal, no wonder County Magistrate Huang and others are discussing it." Liu Wansong, who was already showing his age, couldn't help but sigh.
He and Lian Xuezhu are about the same age, and Lian Xuezhu will retire soon.
Seeing Cao Shujie, a junior, develop so quickly, Liu Wansong couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this is a talent.
The first time he met Cao Shujie was when Lian Xuezhu introduced Cao Shujie to him to apply for agricultural subsidies. In the blink of an eye, more than three years have passed.
The young man who knew nothing at the beginning soon became a famous figure.
"Stop sighing, let's have a drink first." Lian Xuezhu picked up the wine glass and invited others to drink.
At the same time, he said to his son Lian Qijian: "Jianjian, please keep your eyes open and pour wine for all the uncles on the side."
"Let's see who has less water in his glass. Fill it up quickly. You know how to do this." Lian Xuezhu asked his son.
If Lian Qijian doesn't even have this kind of discernment, he can just get out.
"Old Lian, how can you say that about a child? I think Qijian has always performed well." Liu Wansong said.
Li Guorui nodded: "Old Lian, Qijian's performance is already very good, how do you want him to perform?"
"Okay, let's drink first." Lian Xuezhu picked up the wine glass and asked everyone to continue drinking.
Looking at the green wine in the cup, everyone is still curious about what kind of wine it is?
"Old Lian, where did you buy this? Why haven't I seen it before?" Zhang Shuo asked him.
Several other people also asked where they bought this from?
"Old Lian, don't tell me, this wine is quite delicious." Liu Wansong took another sip and tasted it slowly in his mouth. He always felt that there was a familiar aroma in the wine, but he couldn't think of it for a moment.
stand up.
Or Xie Yizhong said: "Is this the fruity aroma of kiwi fruit?"
"Lao Xie has a sharp nose and a tricky mouth," Lian Xuezhu said of him.
He then explained to everyone that this was fruit wine made from kiwi fruit, and also introduced that his 'nephew' Cao Shujie brewed it himself.
"Oh, Boss Cao, your factory also does this?" Zhang Shuo wondered.
According to the news he heard, Cao Shujie's factory makes deep-processed apple products. When did he start making kiwi fruit wine again?
Cao Shujie explained that he brewed it himself and drank it himself. He specifically emphasized that this batch of wine was made last year and is now gone.
He pointed to the four bottles of kiwi fruit wine he had brought over and said, "I heard from my uncle this morning that he wanted to have dinner with all the uncles, so I brought over all the kiwi fruit wine left at home."
"Tsk, tsk, Xiao Cao is really good at talking." Xie Yizhong raised his glass.
He suggested: "We have to have a drink because of Xiao Cao's feelings."
After he finished speaking, he drank it all in one gulp, and before others could react, he took the initiative to get a bottle and pour himself a glass of wine.
In this short time, two bottles of wine were gone.
Only then did the others react, and they rushed to finish the wine in their glasses, urging Lian Qijian to pour it for themselves.
"Well, old Xie, you don't even have to give up your old face just to drink, right?" Li Guorui said to him.
Fang Qiang had secretly finished the glass of wine and silently placed the glass in front of Lian Qijian, signaling with his eyes that he would pour it for him.
According to Cao Shujie, if the wine is gone, they have to find a way to drink two more glasses.
Besides, this fruit wine does not have much alcohol content and has the fruity flavor of kiwi fruit. They think this thing is better than drinking a drink.
Cao Shujie and Lian Qijian looked at the scene in front of them and wanted to laugh but had to hold back.
Who would have thought that these bureau leaders, who are out of reach in the eyes of ordinary people, would still grab drinks like they are now?
To put it bluntly, this is rogue behavior!
Cao Shujie had to add: "Uncle Liu, Uncle Fang, Uncle Li, Uncle Xie, Bureau Zhang, there is indeed no kiwi fruit wine at my place, but just in time for the strawberry fruiting, I made some more strawberry fruit wine..."
"Wait a moment." Zhang Shuo raised his hand and interrupted Cao Shujie.
Several people didn't understand what happened again, and then they heard Zhang Shuo say very unhappy: "Xiao Cao, I have to criticize you."
"Zhang Ju, if I did anything wrong, feel free to criticize me." Cao Shujie wondered, did he say the wrong thing?
It shouldn’t be!
Zhang Shuo pointed at Liu Wansong and the four of them: "You call them uncle, call me Zhang Ju, I am the only outsider sitting at this table, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lian Xuezhu and the others burst into laughter.
Cao Shujie didn't expect Zhang Shuo to be struggling with this. What's the point?
He opened his mouth and shouted "Uncle Zhang".
"Uncle Zhang, it was my fault just now, I will apologize to you." Cao Shujie took the wine bottle from Lian Qijian's hand, poured it for Zhang Shuo himself, and then poured himself a glass.
Who knew that Zhang Shuo didn't wait for him at all, and drank the wine in one gulp. He stretched the glass forward again and said, "No matter how long one cup is enough, I still have to drink three cups as a penalty."
There were four bottles of wine in total, and the third bottle was almost empty. After these three glasses of wine, no one else wanted to drink.
His conspiracy was discovered by others, and everyone accused Zhang Shuo of being shameless.
While laughing and joking, the relationship between Cao Shujie and these people became more harmonious.
Cao Shujie also told them that after a while, after the strawberry fruit wine has fermented, he will send them some.
Several people said they were waiting at home.
This undoubtedly sends a goodwill signal.
And this is not simply because of Lian Xuezhu's relationship as a middleman, but mainly because Cao Shujie's own strength is worthy of their actions.
Lian Qijian was busy serving tea and pouring wine. He saw Cao Shujie interacting with these bureau leaders who were about the same age as his father and chatting very harmoniously. He was also very envious.
He knew he really couldn't do it.
As a bystander, after looking at this, Lian Qijian realized that he and Cao Shujie were very different in every aspect.
Lian Xuezhu saw the confused look in his son's eyes and said nothing.
Until the end of the game in the evening, everyone went back. Cao Shujie asked the driver Song Baoming to drive and take Lian Xuezhu and Lian Qijian back to Mingshi Mingdu Community first.
After getting off the car at the gate of the community, Lian Xuezhu asked Cao Shujie to go back early and told him to call him when he got home.
After watching the car drive away, Lian Xuezhu asked his son: "Qijian, do you understand?"
Lian Qijian nodded half-understanding: "Dad, I seem to understand."
"What do you know? Tell me." Lian Xuezhu asked him.
Lian Qijian said: "There is a saying that you have to be strong to strike with iron. Is that what it means?"
After Lian Xuezhu heard this, he burst out laughing: "Well said, it seems you really understand."
"Qijian, let me tell you."
Lian Xuezhu said: "Brother Jie is very capable. If you think about it carefully, he has developed to this point in just three or four years. Do you think it is luck? Or is it strength?"
Lian Qijian didn't open his mouth. He thought for a while and then said: "I think there are both luck and strength. These two aspects should not be discussed separately."
"Aren't you being naughty? Your brother Jie's strength is not what you see on the surface." Lian Xuezhu squinted his eyes and said, "Speaking of which, I didn't see through him in the past few years, or even...
Now, I haven’t seen it through either.”
"In the past two years, he came to me for help from time to time, but in the past two years, your brother Jie has never been here once. Do you know what this means?" Lian Xuezhu looked at his son.
Lian Qijian learned the lesson this time: "Dad, let me put it harshly, Brother Jie doesn't need you now. In other words, your relationship can only help Brother Jie two years ago, and it will be of no use in the future."
.”
"Yes, but your brother Jie often comes to our house to sit and sit during the holidays in the past two years, do you remember?"
Lian Qijian was stunned when he heard his father say this.
At this time, Lian Qijian came to his senses and realized that this should be the focus of what his father said.
Lian Xuezhu turned around and walked towards the building where they lived, and the voice followed: "Qijian, let me tell you, in life, the first priority is character, the second is strength, and the third is luck."
"You have poor character, insufficient strength, and no luck. You will definitely not succeed."
"But you are unlucky and your strength is mediocre. If you choose someone with good character, there will always be someone willing to help you." Lian Xuezhu said: "Just like there are people in the city who look at you Brother Jie differently, it is the same reason.
"
Lian Qijian thought for a long time downstairs. The moon was in the sky, a gust of wind blew, and he felt cool and comfortable.
I don't know when, the moon was blocked by a black cloud, and it looked like it was going to rain.
"Damn it, the weather forecast didn't say it will rain today?" Lian Qijian was still mumbling. The next moment, drops of rain fell from the sky, and he hurriedly ran towards the building.
…
On the other side, Song Baoming drove Cao Shujie towards Caojiazhuang.
At some point, the sound of raindrops hitting the car was heard, followed by a dense rain curtain falling from the sky, blocking the view.
Cao Shujie came back to his senses and looked at the rain falling on the car glass, unable to see the scenery outside at all.
"Old Song, drive slower, it'll be okay." Cao Shujie warned him.
Song Baoming responded and the car slowed down.
Fortunately, it was already very late and it was raining, so no one was walking on the road at this time.
Song Baoming drove Cao Shujie to Caojiazhuang, and finally stopped in front of Cao Shujie's house. Cao Shujie said to him in the car: "Old Song, drive back and pick me up tomorrow morning."
"Hey!" Song Baoming nodded, then turned the car around and moved the car door closer to the door of Cao Shujie's house. Cao Shujie got out of the car and ran under the gate.
After Song Baoming watched Cao Shujie return home, he drove back home.
Cheng Xiaolin saw that her husband's hair and coat were wet, and urged him to take a shower quickly to avoid catching a cold.
…
The next morning, Song Baoming drove to the door of Cao Shujie's house at around seven o'clock. At this time, Cao Shujie had not had breakfast.
The heavy rain last night seemed to have washed the sky again, the air was fresh, and it was especially sweet when you took a breath.
Cao Shujie heard the movement at the door and came out to see Song Baoming waiting for him so early. He also asked him if he had eaten and asked him to go home to eat some.
After Cao Shujie finished his breakfast, Song Baoming drove him to town again.
On the way, Song Baoming told Cao Shujie that two former colleagues called him and asked him if the Xuemeng Food Factory was still hiring drivers. They wanted to come and have a look.
"Old Song, isn't this just right? Just let them come."
Cao Shujie seemed particularly active when talking about this incident.
He continued: "When the second phase of our factory is launched, we will have our own logistics center. By then, the shipment volume will be larger, and the factory will need to recruit more drivers in the next step."
He remembered something and told Song Baoming: "Old Song, didn't you say that your urban and rural buses can't pay wages? Ask your former colleagues if there are any who are willing to drive in our factory. If so,
If so, just let them come, and the wages will definitely not be lower than at the bus company."
"Tell them that we also pay five insurances!" Cao Shujie said emphatically.
He knows that there are some people who would rather have a smaller salary and have to pay five social insurances. These people don't particularly value the present, but they value the future.
"Hey, I'll ask again." Song Baoming didn't expect that one day his boss would ask him to poach his former colleagues.
This reminded him of when the boss personally poached him last year, which was really interesting.
