officialdom

Cao Rui lit a cigarette for himself. Halfway through the cigarette, he realized that his relationship with Wang Fei was now very tight, almost a political alliance.

This relationship and the two families behind it are difficult to separate. Maybe this is Wang Fei's idea.

Cao Rui could only think, if he were in Wang Fei's position now, would he look for Sun Ping'an? The answer is yes.

Apart from Mayor Lao Gao, the only other important leader Cao Rui knows well in the city now is Sun Pingan! After all, Mr. Gao has retired and is no longer in his position. If Cao Rui has some confusion, he can ask the old man for his opinion and ask the old mayor to give him some advice.

If it really involves paving the way for him and finding connections, can Cao Rui let Mr. Gao do it? Even if Gao Lao can do it, what kind of thing is he asking for help for Cao Rui when he is retired and at home?

"Brother Fei, let me make a call!"

Cao Rui stood up and dialed Sun Pingan's number. Sun Pingan only had time at night and was as busy as a spinning top during the day.

In addition, Sun Pingan has two phones, one is turned on during the day and the other is turned on at night. It is not easy for Cao Rui to get the phone number that he turns on at night.

Cao Rui called, and Sun Pingan said with a smile:

"Xiao Cao, I was a little frightened when I saw your phone call. Now many people in the city call you 'King Cao of Hell'. Some people even say that you are more powerful than the King of Hell. You can squeeze out the people you entangle with with a stone." Come oil and water!”

Cao Ruidao: "Secretary-General, I think you are complimenting me! Yongping is where you worked, and you know best what a poor place it is. If I want to develop now, I definitely need financial support!"

On the one hand, I am thick-skinned, and on the other hand, old leaders like you, Secretary-General, have not forgotten our land. Otherwise, no matter how thick-skinned I am, what can I get? "

Cao Rui and Sun Ping'an exchanged a few pleasantries, then changed the subject and said:

"Secretary-general, some of our Yongping cadres and your old subordinates want to come to the city to visit you this weekend. Of course, they want to set up a bureau and accompany you to stretch your muscles!"

Nowadays, people say that work should be balanced with rest. You are usually too busy at work and wake up early and stay late at night. You must relax and change your mind on weekends..."

Sun Pingan said:

"Really just playing cards? Don't set a trap for me!"

"Secretary-general, I, Cao Rui, am too brave to set a trap for you! And I guarantee that they are all acquaintances and your old subordinates..."

Sun Pingan said happily:

"Then you make arrangements, Friday night or Saturday morning! I won't have time on Sunday. I may have to go to the provincial capital!"

"Okay, I'll make arrangements to send you a message!"

After hanging up Sun Ping'an's phone, Cao Rui turned around and nodded to Wang Fei. He picked up the tea cup but thought of going to the city to organize a game. It takes four people to play mahjong, and there is still one person missing.

This is not an ordinary game. You can’t just call anyone. You have to...

"Brother Wang, can you tell me what the arrangements are?"

Wang Fei said:

"Cao Rui, we are brothers. Let me tell you. I have prepared ten of them. Do you think that's okay?"

Cao Rui's heart was pounding. Wang Fei usually kept quiet, was he so determined to win this time? Ten means one hundred thousand. This is really a big deal. With this money, you can now buy a good house in Yongping County.

"Brother, don't have too much psychological burden. I don't do things recklessly! I know a little about Lao Sun. He has a more open mind, is informal, and can do things..."

What the hell!

Cao Rui never thought that "broad thinking" and "informal" could be used in this way. Wang Fei was afraid that Cao Rui wouldn't dare, so he gave Cao Rui some relief. He meant that Sun Pingan could collect money and do things. Ask around.

Cao Rui was not worried about this, but he had never had this kind of experience. Cao Rui remembered that he and Ling Feng went to the city the first time. Ling Feng took two envelopes to see Sun Pingan, but the envelopes were later taken back.

"Brother Wang, this can't be done, we can't be forceful!" Cao Rui said.

Cao Rui paused and continued:

"Go and carry two bottles of wine and a pack of cigarettes, and then flatten the bottom. This is the only standard!"

Cao Rui took a sip of tea: "If you feel that this scale is still a little lacking, just go to the card table and see if you can digest it, or digest part of it!"

Cao Rui was very vigilant. The number Wang Fei mentioned was too shocking, reaching six figures. As long as nothing happened, the consequences would be disastrous.

Of course, Cao Rui might be able to pick himself clean, but can he take such a risk?

Now this kind of unspoken rule, collecting some cigarettes and alcohol, and then giving a small amount of cash is a normal transaction, basically this is the scale. The scale Wang Fei thought was too big, Cao Rui must adhere to the principle in this regard.

Wang Fei nodded and said:

"Okay, whatever game you arrange is up to you!"

Cao Rui said:

"Now there is another problem. There is still one person left to play cards. There must be an arrangement!"

Wang Fei said:

"Cao Hui! Cao Hui was just a principal of a junior high school. At that time, Sun Pingan was the secretary of the Yongping County Party Committee. After talking with Cao Hui, he thought Cao Hui was a talented person and promoted him to be the vice principal of No. [-] Middle School.

Cao Hui showed his talent in No. [-] Middle School, and everyone witnessed what happened next. Principal Cao now enjoys special subsidies from the State Council, and No. [-] Middle School is now a famous school in southern Hunan..."

Cao Rui understood that Wang Fei had already made arrangements. His arrangement for Cao Hui showed that his relationship with Cao Hui was also very unusual.

This reminded Cao Rui that when Boss Ling wanted to promote the construction of the new city, Cao Rui and Cao Hui knew each other at that time and started to have contacts. Maybe Wang Fei also put a lot of effort into it secretly, but Cao Rui didn't know about these things.

After the matter was discussed, Wang Fei proposed to stay at Jinju Villa tonight. It would be a pity not to live in such a nice house with luxurious decoration.

Cao Rui really couldn't get used to living here. He was used to the small nest at home, so he said:

"You and your sister-in-law can live here. We still have Duoduo at home. The children still have to be sent to school. We have to wait a few years to live in a villa!"

When Cao Rui returned home, he wondered if he should tell his boss about this? But in the end he gave up the idea

Ling Feng is Cao Rui's boss and Wang Fei's boss. In a sense, Wang Fei may have a closer relationship with Ling Feng. If Wang Fei wants his boss to know, Ling Feng must know the situation.

Cao Rui is not worried about Ling Feng's opinion of him. This is Wang Fei's business. The person he serves as director is very versatile and is best at coordinating these relationships. He can't do this well and makes Cao Rui feel wronged. , he no longer needs to be the director.

It was the weekend in a blink of an eye, and Cao Rui and Wang Fei went to Wude on Friday afternoon. The card game was scheduled for Friday night at the edge of Biyan Lake. Sun Pingan always had a fixed place to play.

But this time it was arranged by Wang Fei, and there must be no problem with the place he found. Cao Rui sent a message to Sun Pingan, but Sun Pingan didn't say anything.

There is a detail here, that is, Cao Hui was not with Ling Feng. He did not arrive at his destination until about [-]:[-] pm.

After arriving, he and Cao Rui clasped their hands and said:

"Thank you, Cao King of Hell, for not killing me! You spent all your time making money, but in the end you still left some conscience for No. [-] Middle School, and didn't let me No. [-] Middle School pay for you!"

Cao Rui said:

"Principal, don't cry about poverty with me. Among the places that are most in need of money in Yongping County, No. [-] Middle School is on the list! I didn't ask you because I don't want to abuse the favor. I may take action at a critical moment, so don't expect to block me. Q!"

Cao Hui laughed loudly, turned to Wang Fei and said:

"Wang Fei, is he your disciple? He is even more shameless than you!"

Wang Fei said:

"Principal, please don't talk nonsense. He and I are close colleagues at work. In private, he is my master!"

The three of them all laughed, and while they were chatting and laughing, the municipal party committee's car came into the yard. In those days, there was no such thing as private use of public cars. Drivers drove when leaders went out!

Sun Pingan got off the car and was greeted by Cao Hui and three others. Sun Pingan smiled and said:

"Cao Rui pretended to be mysterious to me on the phone. I told him who invited me to dinner, yes! They are all young talents from Lao Yongping!"

Sun Pingan's emotional intelligence was extremely high, and the atmosphere became more harmonious as soon as he arrived. During the meal, Cao Rui observed carefully and found that all the dishes arranged by Wang Fei were Sun Pingan's favorites.

When it comes to reception and service, many people say that the so-called five-star service requires learning from foreigners. In fact, what five-star service level can compare to Wang Fei’s?

This is a courtyard, a bit like a private villa. Sun Pingan asked while eating:

"Why haven't I been to this place before? Is it closed to the public?"

Wang Fei said:

"My family has just bought this place, and is planning to open a restaurant for dining and leisure similar to Yongping Golden Orange Villa. It is still under preparation! No, today we are inviting the old leaders to dinner, and it will be arranged here. , we need the Secretary-General to give us some advice later!"

What the hell!

Wang Fei's arrangement was amazing. Cao Rui also lamented that Wang Fei had a great wife. She had made money in the past few years and was ready to enter the market. Her skills were extraordinary.

After dinner, we played cards for almost five hours. In five hours, Sun Pingan won more than [-] yuan, Cao Hui won more than [-] yuan, Cao Rui won a little, and Wang Fei was the big loser.

When Sun Pingan left, everyone went to see him off. When Sun Pingan got into the car, Cao Rui came up to him and said:

"Secretary-General, our Director Wang has served as a leader for a long time and knows how to receive people best! This time we came to visit you and he arranged two bottles of wine. It's just a little care and disrespectful!"

Sun Pingan patted Cao Rui on the shoulder:

"If Ling Feng becomes Secretary Ling, you can go free if you want to travel! Wang Fei is so good at arranging, and he can also support you when the time comes..."

When Cao Rui heard this, he immediately hit the snake and followed it to the pole, saying:

"Director Wang has such senior qualifications and top-notch talents and abilities. It's time to take a step further. Secretary-General, we Yongping cadres all need your care and attention, Secretary-General!"

Sun Pingan took a deep look at Cao Rui, said nothing, got in the car and left...
