Chapter 042 Insidious Characters

Lu Yuan listened to the phone being hung up and complained, "This Liang Jian hasn't entered his house yet. www.pinw.CooM"

Liang Jian stopped in the corridor and asked himself: "Do I really have to give 20,000 yuan to Zhong Tao for a position? Do I really need to do this? Do I really want to do this? I will really do this.

? Damn, this is not what I thought at all."

The phone rang again.

Liang Jian cursed secretly: "Why are Lu Yuan forcing me like this!"

I picked up the phone and looked at it, but it was not Lu Yuan, but the old leader Huang Shaohua.

As soon as he saw Huang Shaohua's name, he couldn't help but feel guilty. He answered the phone in a low voice: "Hello, Secretary Huang."

Huang Shaohua: "Liang Jian, where are you?"

Of course, Liang Jian couldn't tell. He was in the corridor of Zhong Tao, preparing to send money to Zhong Tao. He could only say: "I'll be home soon."

"Come out for a moment. Jiang Yan, the cadre section chief of the District Party Committee's Organization Department, is here too. We are having a late night drink at Suiyuanfang. Let's have some drinks together."

Liang Jian hesitated for a moment, but actually didn't know how to answer.

Huang Shaohua added: "If you want to be transferred in the future, he can help. Come and have a toast."

Liang Jian thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll be here. I'll be there in about twenty minutes."

Liang Jian put away the phone and looked at the fruit basket in his hand. He really wanted to go downstairs, get in the car and leave.

Zhong Tao's voice suddenly sounded upstairs: "Is it Liang Jian? On the stairs?"

Liang Jian didn't expect Zhong Tao to open the door and wait for him. He could only say: "Secretary Zhong, hello, it's me, coming up."

"Okay." Zhong Tao's voice.

Liang Jian was puzzled. Zhong Tao usually didn't treat him well, but today he came to open the door for him in person, and his voice sounded quite amiable. It seemed that he couldn't do it if he didn't.

He stared straight at the red envelope in the fruit basket. He thought of the phone call from Huang Shaohua just now. In desperation, he put the fruit basket on the stairs and got busy inside. A minute later, he again

He lifted up the fruit basket. After taking a few steps, he saw Zhong Tao smoking with one hand and waiting for him with the other on the door handle.

Liang Jian: "Hello, Secretary Zhong."

Zhong Tao: "You are a rare guest, please come in."

Zhong Tao's attitude puzzled Liang Jian. Could it be that Zhong Tao, who always had a straight face in the town government, was a pleasant parent at home?

The decoration of Zhong Tao's house is rather antique, and it can be seen that the materials used are all high-end goods.

Zhong Tao's wife Ma Laidi poured Liang Jian a cup of tea, said hello and went into the back room, never to be seen again.

Zhong Tao at home is still dressed as he was at work, but he does look much more cheerful.

Zhong Tao: "Liang Jian, why did you want to come to my house today?"

Liang Jian leaned forward and pointed to the basket he brought when he entered: "After working in the town for so many years, I haven't visited Secretary Zhong's house. It's actually my dereliction of duty. I'm here today. On the one hand,

I’m here to congratulate Secretary Zhong on his promotion; on the other hand, I’m also here to see Secretary Zhong.”

Zhong Tao's expression didn't change: "You're too polite. You brought something over."

Liang Jian saw Zhong Tao looking towards the fruit basket, and the red envelope bag was slightly exposed. Zhong Tao should have seen it. Liang Jian said: "There is nothing valuable, just some fruit."

Zhong Tao: "If it's just some fruit, I'll accept it. I won't accept anything else. You know, I have always emphasized integrity and self-discipline."

Liang Jian: "Yes, I understand this."

What followed was various pleasantries. Zhong Tao asked Liang Jian how his work was going recently and if he had any thoughts. Liang Jian said everything was fine. Zhong Tao then asked Liang Jian's father-in-law, Lu Jianming, about his health. Liang Jian also said fine.

The gift had been delivered successfully. Liang Jian thought about going to Huang Shaohua's dinner party, so he asked to leave. Zhong Tao did not hold back, nor did he check the gift from Liang Jian, and sent Liang Jian out.

Liang Jian returned to the car. His wife Lu Yuan asked: "Did you give it away?"

Liang Jian: "Sent it away."

Lu Yuan: "Secretary Zhong is at home?"

Liang Jian: "I'm here. We talked for a few words."

Lu Yuan asked again: "Really?"

Liang Jian: "Are you still worried? Why don't you search."

Lu Yuan looked at his face: "There's no need to search."

Liang Jian: "Send me to Suiyuanfang."

Lu Yuan: "Isn't that a place for night drinking? It's so late, why are you going for a night drinking? With whom?"

Liang Jian: "Secretary Huang."

Lu Yuan was unhappy: "Secretary Huang has been transferred out of Shimian Town, why do you keep asking you to eat and drink?"

Liang Jian: "The old leader remembers me."

Lu Yuan: "Dad said that you should stop spending time with Secretary Huang. If Secretary Zhong knows about it, he will definitely have thoughts about you."

Liang Jian: "The old leader asked me not to go. Besides, your senior brother Jiang Yan is also here."

Lu Yuan: "Oh? Jiang Yan is also with him? Then you can go."

Jiang Yan seemed to be a good shield, and Liang Jian remembered it.

As soon as Liang Jian left, Zhong Tao's wife Ma Laidi came out of the back room. Ma Laidi picked up the fruit basket: "Just a fruit basket?"

Zhong Tao: "Look, what is that red thing inside?"

Malaidi quickly dug out the red envelope. It was heavy. Malaidi squeezed it with her hands: "It seems to be money inside, not a small amount. Can you open it and take a look?"

Zhong Tao: "Wait."

Zhong Tao took it from Ma Laidi's hand and felt it. It was hard. It must be the 100-dollar bill he had just taken from the bank: "This money cannot be touched."

Ma Laidi narrowed her eyes: "As you become more senior, you are becoming more and more cautious."

It's not that Ma Laidi has never collected money for Zhong Tao, not once or twice. This time Zhong Tao seemed so careful, and Ma Laidi was a little confused.

Zhong Tao said: "This has nothing to do with whether the official position is big or small. Don't take this money. Leave it here with me. I have my own way of dealing with it."

Ma Laidi blurted out: "Don't you have a little wife outside? Are you going to give this money to your little wife? No wonder, these days, there is always not enough money at home."

When Zhong Tao saw that he couldn't explain to his mother-in-law, he spat: "What nonsense are you talking about! There are some things that you women don't understand. In short, you can't touch or dismantle this money. I have my own uses."

Ma Laidi wanted to say something else, but she heard Zhong Tao pick up the phone: "Secretary Zhang, please let me know that tomorrow morning, Mayor Jin, Chairman Bi, you, and Fu Dong will meet in my office. This time

In the middle-level competition, some problems have arisen that cannot be ignored. Some young people, eager to be motivated and ignoring organizational disciplines, openly came to my house to deliver money. We cannot pretend that we don’t know about this matter, nor can we pretend that it has not happened. We must deal with it seriously and boycott it.

Evil trends... As for the time, come as soon as you get to work, half past eight."

When Ma Laidi listened to Zhong Tao's call, she learned that Zhong Tao was going to operate on the young man who sent the money. She was worried: If you treat people who come to give gifts like this, who else will dare to give gifts in the future.

She was afraid that Zhong Tao would say that she interfered with his work, so she said nothing and took the fruit to the kitchen.

Suiyuanfang is somewhat famous in Xincheng District. Although it is a small shop, it does a good job in night drinking, especially the freshwater fish, which is tender and delicious, slippery but not greasy. Eating lake food and drinking wine, it feels extraordinary. This night

The banquet was also small, Huang Shaohua, Jiang Yan, Xiao Ni from the Public Security Bureau who was at the last farewell banquet were also there, and there was another beauty he didn't recognize.

This beauty is not young, she is about 37 or 38 years old. She has a clear face and looks like a beauty from the north. She still has the charm of a MILF, with strong bones and a charming attitude. Liang

Jian feels that she is not an ordinary social woman.

Sure enough, Huang Shaohua introduced him: "This is Zhou Wen, deputy prosecutor of the District Procuratorate."

It turned out to be a female prosecutor. No wonder she seemed to be strong and soft at the same time. This was the imprint of her profession on her body and mind.

After introducing each other, it was time to drink.

Before Liang Jian arrived, they had already drank a lot of wine, but Liang Jian had not drank at night, and the amount of wine he had saved seemed to be sufficient. So he toasted generously.

This attracted the attention of the female prosecutor general, who said to Huang Shaohua, "Director Huang, I didn't expect that each of your little brothers enjoys drinking more than the other."

Liang Jian was used to calling Huang Shaohua "Secretary Huang," but he was a little uncomfortable hearing someone call him "Director Huang." The small change of title also made Liang Jian feel the change in his situation, and his desire to drink more expanded in his heart.

Huang Shaohua: "It's not that one is more enjoyable than the other, it's that they are equally enjoyable."

Liang Jian noticed that Huang Shaohua's words contained elements of caring for Jiang Yan's feelings. He and Jiang Yan were Huang Shaohua's brothers at the scene, and only Zhou Wen and Xiao Ni were left.

Xiao Ni said: "Don't forget, I am also very happy. Section Chief Jiang, I respect you. You are from the Organization Department, and we have to rely on you if we want to make progress."

Jiang Yan hurriedly picked up the wine glass and said, "You are from the Municipal Public Security Bureau. Our district organization department cannot control people in the city. Instead, many tasks in the district require the care and support of the municipal bureau."

When Huang Shaohua saw that they were talking in Mandarin, he urged: "Stop talking, let's finish the wine first."

The two of them really drank.

Liang Jian toasted in turn, and the food was almost the same as the dinner. He drank red wine. Huang Shaohua said that this was brought from France by a friend of his. Everyone rated this red wine well. But the Chinese drink red wine.

The unique style of drinking wine makes wine tasting limited to the first few sips.

Liang Jian toasted a lot of wine. Since it was a private gathering of friends, everyone drank freely. In other words, everyone drank a lot.

Huang Shaohua said to Jiang Yan: "Chief Jiang, this little brother Liang Jian is very good. If you have the opportunity, I will introduce it to the district-level department. Now that I have left Shimian Town, he wants to come out too. Liang Jian, don't you think so?"

?”

Liang Jian: "What Secretary Huang said is that if the environment could be changed, I would indeed think of it."

Jiang Yan listened and nodded.

Huang Shaohua: "Liang Jian, then you should respect Section Chief Jiang."

Liang Jian poured a full glass and toasted Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan was also very cheerful and filled the cup. After drinking, he said: "I will reveal it on this table. After I have said it, I will pretend that I have never said it. After you have listened, you will pretend that you have never heard it.

"

Deputy Prosecutor Zhou Wen said: "We all have this sense of organizational discipline, so don't worry, Chief Jiang."

Jiang Yan nodded: "Actually, the last time we went to guide the middle-level cadres of Shimian Town to give speeches, we had already seen Liang Jian's style. In the entire speech competition, Liang Jian was the best speaker. On that day,

Vice Minister Wang Zhaotong proposed to Secretary Zhong Tao that Liang Jian should be transferred to the Organization Department."
