Lin Yu smiled and said: "Director Zou, would you like to flatter me a few words?"
Director Zou said: "Minister Lin, I have read the article you recently published in the "Party Building" magazine carefully many times. It is so well written. It is really lofty and thoughtful. I organized all the party members of the Health Department
I studied it carefully and everyone said this article was very well written."
Director Zou looked very serious when he said it. After hearing this, Lin Yu smiled and said, "Really?"
Lin Yu suddenly realized, "You old Zou, are you making fun of me? Haha!"
It was only then that I realized: Director Zou’s flattery is really very technological! In fact, I also understood that everyone was very happy today, and this meeting set up the atmosphere.
Governor Huang said: "Let's go in, it's not good to make such a joke outside." Then he came to look at me and smiled: "Kid Feng Xiao, what delicious food have you arranged for us today?"
I hurriedly said: "Principal Wu is making arrangements today. I will be the secretary."
Governor Huang smiled and said: "Okay. Let me see if your secretary is qualified today. Come on, let's go in."
Everyone gathered around Governor Huang and walked inside together. After arriving at the private room, Governor Huang looked inside and immediately nodded with satisfaction and said: "Yes. Not bad. I never thought we could have such an elegant place in Jiangnan Province."
I said: "This place has been open for a while, only about a year. I think the courtyard style here is very good, and the dishes are also very unique. Governor Huang, please! Please arrange a seat for tonight."
"
He laughed and sat down on the main seat, and then said: "Minister Lin, you should accompany me as a teacher. Secretary Luo is sitting here. Secretary Luo is older than Director Zou. Director Zou, you won't have
Do you have any opinion? Since it is Principal Wu who is making the arrangements today, I would like to apologize to Principal Wu and sit at the bottom, where the bill is paid. Others can sit as they please."
Principal Wu smiled and said: "That's great. Then I can face the leader directly."
Director Zou said: "Principal Wu is a better flatterer than I am."
Everyone laughed again.
Only then did I realize that the two female teachers from the Medical University had arrived at some unknown time, and then I nodded slightly to them, which was regarded as my greeting to them.
Lin Yu waved to me and said: "Feng Xiao, come and sit next to me. You may not know yet, but Feng Xiao is my younger brother. Please take more care of him in the future."
I was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood her purpose for doing this: there must be people whispering about the relationship between me and her behind my back, which is not surprising. And for her, the best way is to take this opportunity.
Let’s make things clear. She is many years older than me. It should be normal for us to be siblings. Many things are like this. Being secretive will only make others gossip. Instead of doing so, it is better to speak openly.
come out.
Governor Huang also went on to say: "Xiao Feng is very good. There are too few young people like him now. I hope everyone will help him in the future."
Secretary Luo said: "Yes, Xiao Feng is indeed very capable. He has already been praised by everyone just after joining our Education Committee system. Governor Huang, Minister Lin, don't worry, he is here with me, and I will work hard with him."
support him."
Director Zou said: "Lao Luo, you have found a treasure. To be honest, Minister Lin, I have a lot of objections to you. Xiao Feng has done a good job in our health system, why should we transfer him?
Huh? If that’s not possible, then the position of deputy director of our Department of Health is also OK?”
President Wu said: "I haven't said it yet. Xiao Feng was originally from our medical university, and he is still our visiting professor, and we have already studied it. He will be one of next year's graduate tutors. I think it is best to arrange for him
Come back and be the vice president in charge of scientific research in our school."
Secretary Luo smiled and said: "Principal Wu, you can't blame others for not using others properly when Xiao Feng was in your school."
Principal Wu hurriedly defended: "I didn't have the final say at that time. Some people in our school are very excessive, and it's not like you don't know the situation in our school."
I was sitting there feeling embarrassed, and at the same time I was a little touched, but I couldn't say anything at all. In fact, in my heart, I didn't want others to praise me in person like this, because such praise made me feel embarrassed, and the reason for the embarrassment was that I
I know what kind of person I am. I also know that although they are praising me, their purpose is to please Governor Huang and Lin Yu. However, I can't do anything about it, and I can't stop them from praising me.
This is my kind of praise, right?
Also, I feel that their praise of me is like an elder praising a younger one, which also makes me feel a little embarrassed.
At this time, Governor Huang spoke, "Okay, don't talk about this matter. Xiao Feng is still young and has many shortcomings. You can point them out to him more in the future. This will be the greatest help to him."
I immediately felt that my opportunity to speak had come, so I hurriedly said: "Yes. I am too young and can't handle many things well. Leaders, please help me more in the future."
At this time, the waiter began to serve the food. Governor Huang looked at the dishes on the table and said, "Well, the food here seems to be very good. It is full of color and aroma, but I don't know how it tastes. Principal Wu, what kind of wine have you prepared today?"
ah?"
What I didn't expect was that Lin Yu said this at this time: "Teacher Huang, Feng Xiao has prepared a New Year's gift for you. They are two bottles of 15-year-old Maotai. He originally asked me to give it to you. I think so
Well, let's just drink it tonight. Teacher Huang, you won't be reluctant to part with it, right?"
I was shocked in my heart: Where and where is this? But then I saw Governor Huang looking at me with a smile, "Xiao Feng, this is a good gift. Maotai in the past fifteen years is not easy to find. Haha! Okay
, let’s drink these two bottles of wine today. Everyone is in a good mood today.”
I just laughed awkwardly there.
Lin Yu immediately called her driver and asked her to go to the car to get some wine.
The Moutai produced in the past fifteen years is indeed good, and I can be sure that it is not a fake wine. The caps of the two bottles of wine were opened at once, and then poured into the wine glasses in front of us. Governor Huang said that the wine was too
It's so rare that it would be a pity to spill even a drop, so I just put it in a big cup.
After this wine was poured into the wine glass, it showed a yellow-orange color. It looked very attractive. It immediately gave people a mellow feeling, and the entire elegant room was suddenly filled with the mellow aroma of this wine.
shrouded.
Governor Huang said: "It's really good wine. Principal Wu, you are the one making arrangements today. You can speak."
Principal Wu said hurriedly: "Governor Huang, you are the leader, so of course you have to speak first. Give us an instruction, and then we will start."
Secretary Luo and Director Zou both said that it was better for Governor Huang to speak first. It was okay for everyone to joke, but relationships at this level should not be messed up. Governor Huang then said with a smile: "You guys, the atmosphere was originally very casual, but it turned out that
You have made me feel like an official. Well, let me speak first. Let’s just say: The Spring Festival is coming soon. Let’s celebrate the Spring Festival in advance with Principal Wu’s food and Feng Xiao’s wine.
May everyone make progress in their careers and have a happy family in the new year. Come, let’s toast.”
All the people stood up following Governor Huang, and the sound of clinking glasses echoed loudly in the private room where we were.
Director Zou smiled and asked Governor Huang: "Boss, do we really want to toast?"
Governor Huang pointed at him and said with a smile: "Comrade like you, of course you should drink such a good wine slowly. Cheers all at once? That's a waste of good things."
Everyone laughed, took a small sip and sat down.
This wine is a bit strong. The first thing you feel when you drink it is that it is greasy and mellow. It immediately hits your nose and fills your mouth with saliva. But when you swallow it down your throat, you can feel its power: although it is not that special.
It was a stimulating feeling, but suddenly the whole province felt warm and cozy.
"Good wine! This wine has the real taste of Moutai." Governor Huang exclaimed immediately after drinking it.
Secretary Luo said: "It's a pity that there are only two bottles today."
Governor Huang glared at him, "Two bottles of wine are already very good. There are so many drunkards nowadays. It's not easy for such good wine to be stored for fifteen years."
Then he went to eat the food, "Well, it tastes good. This place is good."
Everyone goes to eat vegetables.
Secretary Luo then said: "I know someone who has such good wine at home, but even I can't get it from him."
Director Zou asked: "Who is it? Such a money-crazed person?"
Secretary Luo said with a smile: "This is not because he is obsessed with money, but because he is reluctant to part with it. This person likes to drink. He has managed to store the wine for so many years. Do you think he is reluctant to part with it?"
My heart suddenly moved: Could it be that he was talking about the old director? So I hurriedly asked: "Secretary Luo, are you talking about my predecessor?"
He looked at me in surprise, "You actually know?"
I smiled and said, "I only found out today. I went fishing with him this morning, and he told me a lot about Moutai. He also told me that he started cellaring Moutai many years ago.
Yes. Secretary Luo, I think it is very possible that you asked him for this wine today, but you have to promise me something."
He was even more surprised, "Xiao Feng, are you so sure? Tell me quickly, what do you want me to promise you?"
Lin Yuzai looked at us and smiled lightly.
I said: "I want to hire him back as a consultant. He also agreed, but I don't know if you agree or not."
He looked at Lin Yu and said, "Your sister is here. If she agrees, of course I will agree."
Lin Yu immediately laughed, "In order to drink more good wine today, I agreed."
Secretary Luo immediately picked up the phone and started dialing, "Lao Li, we have decided on your re-employment. You can go back to work after the Spring Festival. But I have a condition. You have to contribute two bottles of the Maotai you stored.
Haha! Xiao Feng spent a lot of money on your business today, don’t you want to be so obsessed with money?”
Governor Huang looked dumbfounded, "Haha! A bunch of drunkards!"
Secretary Luo had already put down the phone and looked very happy, "Haha! He actually agreed. Xiao Feng, I really have you! This old money man finally agreed to bring out two bottles of wine today. This wine is just a pour, the key is
This money man took it out willingly! Haha! I’ll ask the driver to take it right away!”
Everyone at the table laughed, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.
This place is not far from the family area of the Provincial Education Committee. Half an hour later, Secretary Luo’s driver brought back the wine, not two bottles, but three bottles! It seemed that the old director was unwilling to retreat at all, otherwise he would
He definitely didn't want to take out the wine. But I can imagine that he must be very sad about these three bottles of wine at this moment. I suddenly felt funny, and at the same time I felt guilty towards the old director. After all, it was me who came up with this idea.
By this time, we had drank more than half of the wine in our glasses, and the atmosphere on the table was already warm. Alcohol is good, it can make people excited quickly, and it can bring people closer to each other as quickly as possible.
However, most of the people here are people of a certain level, and most of them have been in the officialdom for many years. Meng Xiaoyun and Ruan Jie are relatively young, but because they are women and their leaders are present, not to mention Governor Huang and Lin Yu
With such high positions, they don't seem to be arrogant, and everyone else knows the minimum sense of propriety. Therefore, even in such a warm atmosphere, everyone still knows that the focus today is on Governor Huang, and it's a joke.
It’s not too much sometimes. On the contrary, everyone still flatters Governor Huang from time to time. (To be continued)
