I nodded and said, "That's really not the case. We are all from the same place. In the final analysis, we drink together because we are happy. Don't let it go if we can't drink. That would be too disrespectful. Director Hou, although I have a drinking capacity,
Not big, but I am also a passionate person, so let’s go home having fun today.”
He was immediately overjoyed, "Mayor Feng, that's great. Why don't we drink when we are together in our hometown? Right? Although drinking wine is harmful to the body, it is the bond between people. We and
There are two things that foreign colleagues like to do most when they are together, one is to compete in martial arts, and the other is to drink. In that way, we will quickly establish a deep relationship."
Su Wen asked him: "Director Hou has learned martial arts?"
Director Hou shook his head and said: "What you are asking is very unprofessional. Many types of martial arts are just for performance. In the final analysis, it is a kind of powerful dance. Real fighting is different. What is needed is a fatal move. We are walking together.
When we are together, in addition to exchanging fighting skills, we also compete in marksmanship. Xiao Su, I see you are so interested in weapons, how about we compete in marksmanship if we have the opportunity in the future?"
Su Wen hurriedly said: "My marksmanship is not good. Although I used to be a criminal policeman, I encountered few major cases, and I have been doing administrative work since I was injured, so my marksmanship has long been rusty. Director Hou, please don't look at it.
I made a fool of myself."
I couldn't help but laugh, "Xiao Su is self-aware, and Director Hou must be a master in this field. Director Hou, I would like to propose a toast to you. Thank you for your warm hospitality to us. I would also like to lend you this glass of wine to invite you when you have time."
We will go back to our hometown when the time comes, and we will have a good time drinking in Shangjiang."
He clinked his glass with me and drank it down with me.
In fact, this white wine tastes a little uncomfortable when I take the first sip, but after the first glass, my body will quickly adapt. At this moment, after I drank this glass of wine, I suddenly felt a light and airy feeling.
Feeling happy.
After drinking it, he said: "Mayor Feng, I really want to go back, but I want to ask you to do me a favor."
I was secretly surprised: before we told him about the matter, he asked me to help him first. But I immediately realized one thing: it is very likely that he knew that we came to him this time for something, so he
Be the first to bring something up to me so that we won't be unable to talk about it later.
I hurriedly said: "Director Hou, just tell me, as long as we can handle it, there will be no problem."
He said: "My favorite thing is to collect various weapons, from ancient cold weapons to modern firearms before the 1960s. What I invite you to visit today is actually only a part of it.
In addition, I also like to collect all kinds of antiques, from pottery to paintings and calligraphy, as well as Ming and Qing furniture, etc. I have collected a lot of things over the years. I have always wanted to build a firearms museum in my hometown, but then
I don't think it's good to do something like that in my own name.
Not long ago I heard that Shangjiang City is planning to build a famous cultural city. I think I can donate those things to my hometown. My parents died early, and I was raised by my head teacher.
I died the year I joined the army, and I have never returned to my hometown since then, because I didn't want to go back to see things and miss people, or make myself uncomfortable.
But I feel that I should still do something for my hometown. Mayor Feng, I hope your municipal government can find a place to display my things and name this exhibition hall after me. Haha! Maybe this of mine
The request is a bit too much, but it is indeed a wish of mine in this life. I wonder if Mayor Feng can fulfill my wish?"
I didn't expect that he would make such a request to me. Many people have dreams of returning home in fine clothes, but this was the first time I encountered him in such a way. After thinking about it, I said: "This matter should not be a problem."
question.
In the future, a large part of the folk culture street will be the assets of our municipal government. When the time comes, there will be no problem for us to open up a unit as a showroom for these things you donated. There should also be no problem naming it after you.
However, the things you collected should be very valuable. Are you willing to donate them all to your hometown? Haha! I like to tell the truth, so don’t be surprised."
He shook his head and said: "I do feel a little reluctant to part with it, but I think those things should be exhibited so that more people can see them. That would be more meaningful."
I thought about it and said: "Director Hou, do you think this is okay? We will still provide the place, and there is no problem in naming the exhibition hall after you, but those things still belong to you. We will provide the place to you for free. If you need
There will be no problem in displaying it for many years. When the time comes, we will pass this matter with a formal document. If I am transferred out of Shangjiang City in the future, this matter will always be valid."
But he shook his head and said: "Then it doesn't make much sense. I just want to do something for my hometown. Even if my collection is nationwide, there are many treasures in it. I am going to donate them all to my hometown. I
All I need to do is leave a name, and my dream for many years can be considered realized."
I suddenly thought of something: maybe he was looked down upon by many people in his hometown, so he had such a strong desire. His desire was actually the same as Kang Demao's previous desire to return to his hometown to become the county magistrate.
The same reason. In the final analysis, this is an inner compensation for being humiliated in the past, and it is also a need for self-satisfaction.
I nodded and said: "Okay. Since you have decided on this matter, I won't say anything more. This time we will choose the place immediately after we go back. Of course, if Director Hou is free, it would be best
Go back and have a look in person, and we will try our best to meet all your needs. As well as the inscription on future plaques, it is best to be written by you or someone designated by you. We will listen to you on these. In addition, the items you donate
We should also go through formal channels and follow the formal channels and procedures for donation."
He was very happy, "Mayor Feng, I didn't expect you to be so cheerful. Come on, let me toast you. I'm so happy today. I could have raised this matter with Governor Huang, but I never told him about it.
This is because I very much hope to be truly accepted by the leaders in my hometown, so that I can feel more at ease."
At this time, I found that he was already very excited, and after all, he had drank several glasses of wine, and under the influence of alcohol, he was already feeling drunk.
I said: "Director Hou, don't worry, we will definitely handle this matter to your satisfaction. You love your hometown and want to do your best for your hometown. We are fully aware of this. In fact, this is
We made a special trip to Beijing this time just to ask you to come forward to organize a big event for our hometown." (To be continued)
