Liang Jian answered the call from Qian Tianyi and then remembered that Qian Tianyi had asked him about treating guests and giving gifts.
Liang Jian told the truth, "Secretary Huang asked me to attend his dinner. I have been following him for so long and I have no choice but to go."
"Then did you mention that we invited Secretary Zhong to dinner today?" Qian Tianyi asked alertly.
"Of course not."
"Since you chose Secretary Huang's dinner instead of Secretary Zhong's dinner, I won't force it. Let's each do our own thing." Qian Tian hung up the phone as soon as he finished speaking.
After Liang Jian ended the call, he felt uneasy. In the eyes of Chang Qi and Qian Tianyi, did his move mean that he refused to stand in their team? He couldn't care so much, it was already like this anyway.
Did it.
Qian Tianyi told Chang Qi about Liang Jian's situation in Chang Qi's office. Chang Qi frowned and stood up from his chair, "Anyway, we gave him a chance. If he can't seize the opportunity, it's his business. It won't happen in the future."
No wonder we are not loyal. Secretary Huang, I guess he called you too, right?"
"Hit him." Qian Tianyi said, "So, I think he might have opinions about us."
"If you have an opinion, just have an opinion." Chang Qi said, "In the officialdom, whether you go well or not depends on the choices you make during critical periods. If you always depend on what others think, it is called indecision and you will not achieve great things. I think,
Liang Jian will suffer a lot from now on."
"I think so." Qian Tianyi also hoped in his heart that Liang Jian's choice was wrong and his own choice was correct.
Liang Jian had no idea where Chang Qi and Qian Tianyi invited Zhong Tao to dinner that night, what time they ate, and how much money they finally gave. That night, he went to the dinner arranged by Huang Shaohua.
The strange smell, maybe it's loyalty, maybe it's sadness, maybe it's true love, anyway, from the beginning, it seemed like I was drinking to drown my sorrows, and I would never come back until I was drunk.
At dinner, there were ten people, a standard round table. Four of them were from the town. In addition to Huang Shaohua himself, there were also financial chief accountant Ding Baihe, Liang Jian, and Huang Shaohua’s driver Lu Qiang. Originally, the driver was not
At the table, this time Huang Shaohua allowed the driver to drink, which was originally intended to be a farewell. The other six people were from outside the town. Huang Shaohua first introduced the guest of honor on his left, who was the deputy district chief Yao Tao. Huang Shaohua said,
It is our honor to have dinner with District Mayor Yao today.
Deputy District Chief Yao did not put on airs and said, "Brothers will be fined a drink for saying such things. There is no district chief in the seat today, only brothers." Huang Shaohua said, "Brothers are brothers, I will fine you a drink later."
Then he continued to introduce Tao Feng, director of the First Street Office, Zhu Huayu, deputy director of the Sports Bureau, Jiang Yan, chief of the cadre section of the District Party Committee Organization Department, and two beauties, one of whom was from the Municipal Public Security Bureau named Xiao
Ni, one of them was from a travel agency named Xiao Cao. Liang Jian didn’t catch the specific name, so he didn’t ask the other person further. When drinking, they called each other Meili Ni and Meili Cao. The focus of these two beauties was drinking with the leader.
, Liang Jian also toasted meaningfully and did not take the initiative to persuade him to drink.
The wine in the cup went down very quickly. At first, everyone was busy making polite toasts to the whole table, and then the leaders started to give focused toasts.
After drinking for three rounds, Huang Shaohua suddenly raised his glass, stood up and said, "The people sitting here today can be said to be the best brothers and sisters. District Chief Yao has been my brother for decades. Director Tao, we have known each other for a long time.
It’s not too short, I have always been good friends, and there are Huai Jing, Jiang Yan, Xiao Ni, Xiao Cao, and when I arrived at Shimian Town Hou Baihe, Liang Jian and my driver Xiao Ding are all very good brothers. Today
, In fact, I called other people, but they didn’t come. I didn’t understand the saying ‘when people leave, the tea will be cold’ so thoroughly before. Today, I finally saw it. Before the people left, the tea was already cold…”
"Secretary Huang, you are talking about Chang Qi and Qian Tianyi." Ding Baihe, the town's financial accountant, said angrily, "These two guys are not brothers. Over time, they will show their true colors at critical moments.
The fox's tail is exposed today."
"We won't talk about them anymore," Huang Shaohua felt relieved after hearing Ding Baihe's straightforward words. He raised his wine glass higher and said, "If you don't have too many brothers, it's better to be true to each other. I'll give you a full glass of toast."
"We respect Secretary Huang," everyone said.
"Wait a minute." District Chief Yao stopped and said, "Let me take a look. Secretary Huang's wine glass is full. Let me see if anyone else's wine glass is not full."
Everyone looked at each other. Liang Jian’s wine glass was full because he had arranged many dinners with Huang Shaohua and had n drinks with him. He knew that Huang Shaohua’s drinking style was very good. When paying respect to the leader, he usually drank a whole glass.
It will not be less than half a glass when serving. At today's practice banquet, Liang Jian knew that Huang Shaohua would have to drink, and he planned to risk his life to accompany the gentleman and toast Huang Shaohua's wine properly. Therefore, when he saw Huang Shaohua stand up and toast,
He had already filled his glass with red wine.
"Director Tao has a good attitude, Director Zhu has a good attitude, Accountant Ding has a good attitude, Liang Jian has a good attitude without any double eyelids at all, Xiao Lu also has a good attitude," District Chief Yao went over one by one, "Look at it again,
There is only half a glass of red wine for us two beauties."
The two beauties said hurriedly, "District Chief Yao, we women can have fewer of them."
"Ladies first, how can there be less? It seems that beauties need someone to pour wine." District Chief Yao said and left his seat to pour wine for the beauties.
"The district chief personally poured us wine, how dare we." Xiao Cao also stood up and walked towards District Chief Yao.
Xiao Ni was embarrassed and had no choice but to follow.
"It's okay, it's okay. It's always our honor to pour wine for beauties." District Chief Yao said, and he had already filled the wine for the beauties. Because the wine in Xiao Ni's cup was poured a little faster, a few drops overflowed.
It was outside and spilled onto the carpet.
"Okay, let's drink."
"cheers."
"I wish Secretary Huang good luck in his new position."
"Thank you everyone." Huang Shaohua took the lead and said goodbye.
