Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things

After coming out, Lin Shaowen sat dejectedly in the car.

"What's wrong, are you scared?" Director Liu, who was driving, laughed, "Just now you were talking freely in front of the leader, I thought you were fearless."

"Director Liu, stop joking." Lin Shaowen sighed, "What kind of place is this? Normal people would be afraid."

"I think you are outspoken." Director Liu said seriously, "It's one thing that the leader appreciates you, but some words can't be said like this... Especially with your status, are these words appropriate?"

"Hmm?"

Lin Shaowen sat up straight, "Director Liu, although we don't meet much, you also know that I am a young man... I don't understand the ways of the world."

"I think you are too knowledgeable about the ways of the world." Director Liu shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Are you hungry? If you are hungry, I will take you to eat something?"

"At this time... there is still food?" Lin Shaowen said in surprise.

Director Liu did not answer, and took him to a room in many ways.

Unlike other dark places, this place is brightly lit.

Many staff members came in and out in twos and threes. Although they didn't speak loudly, they still looked very popular.

When they saw Director Liu bringing Lin Shaowen in, they couldn't help but look at him twice.

"Old Chen, two bowls of noodles." Director Liu said loudly.

"Okay."

Someone in the kitchen agreed.

"Is this the cafeteria?" Lin Shaowen was surprised.

"The work here is not like downstairs. Many times, things are urgent and overtime is required..." Director Liu whispered.

Lin Shaowen immediately understood.

If Huaxia is a person, Sijiu City is the brain of Huaxia, and this is the central nervous system.

"Xiao Lin, I have something to say to you, don't be unconvinced." Director Liu said seriously, "I have read your information, even the information in the seventh department... As a person, there is nothing wrong with being young and frivolous. Everyone has been young."

"Especially at your age, you have such achievements, which is really worth being proud of."

"Director Liu, smoke."

Lin Shaowen immediately handed over a cigarette.

"Do you know why many departments like to rank people by seniority?" Director Liu blew out two streams of smoke from his nose.

"Old people are more stable?" Lin Shaowen asked tentatively.

"That's right, they are stable." Director Liu said softly, "The Yangtze River's waves behind push the waves ahead, this is normal, young people are more capable than old comrades, but this is also normal. But many things can't be rushed, stability is the most important."

"Governing a big country is like cooking a small fish." Lin Shaowen muttered to himself.

"Go to hell, you are panting when you are told that you are fat." Director Liu laughed and scolded, "In order to protect you, Bi Yanjun specially wrote a letter to the higher-ups, and the higher-ups actually agreed. Sometimes... being too young is also a shortcoming."

"Take today's incident for example, who are you, and how dare you get involved in these things? Do you really think that if someone protects you, no one will dare to do anything to you?"

As soon as these words came out, Lin Shaowen immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

He was a little too proud of himself.

"You should know that the higher-ups don't punish you because they are too lazy to deal with you, not because they can't punish you." Director Liu sneered, "If someone really cares about the little things you did, you will be shot lightly."

"I see, thank you Director Liu." Lin Shaowen said gratefully.

"The noodles are here..."

An old man in his fifties came over with a tray.

"Thank you, Lao Chen." Director Liu said politely.

"Hey, this is my duty." Lao Chen smiled and looked at Lin Shaowen, "You are young enough, which unit are you from?"

"I came from another place to report my work." Lin Shaowen smiled innocently.

"That's what I said." Lao Chen smiled, "I have only seen two people as young as you who can come here to work..."

"Uncle Chen, Director Liu and I still have work to discuss, how about I listen to you next time?" Lin Shaowen said politely.

"Look at my mouth..." A trace of surprise flashed in Lao Chen's eyes, and then he smiled, "Okay, you guys take your time to eat."

When Director Liu saw Lao Chen turned his back, he couldn't help but give Lin Shaowen a thumbs up.

"That's right, stay out of the cause and effect, don't cause trouble."

"Director Liu, why are you helping me so much?" Lin Shaowen couldn't help asking.

"It's Lao Bi." Director Liu said angrily, "He doesn't care about his own children, and he always writes to me to ask me to take care of them for him. I'm not the principal of the kindergarten..."

"Director Liu, your words are too hurtful, right? I'm not a child either." Lin Shaowen joked.

"Only children will show off in front of adults."

Director Liu's words made him fall into silence.

The whole cafeteria was filled with the sound of eating noodles.

When Director Liu finished eating, Lin Shaowen had already lit a cigarette and smoked it slowly.

"Let's go."

"Hey."

Lin Shaowen hurriedly followed and stood up.

Old Chen, who came out to collect the bowls, looked at the backs of the two and couldn't help laughing.

Director Liu didn't send him home immediately, but just parked the car on the side of the road and lit a cigarette.

Lin Shaowen saw this and didn't ask.

For a long time.

"Xiao Lin, the most powerful thing about people is not that they can talk, but that they can hold back and say nothing..." Director Liu tilted his head and said, "I admire you very much, but I don't like your flamboyant personality."

I am still flamboyant?

Lin Shaowen opened his mouth, but finally didn't say this.

"I'm not talking about your behavior, I'm talking about your high-profile work." Director Liu said faintly, "First of all, the steel mill, now the steel mill has more money on the books than the department, how do you want Minister Guan to deal with it?"

"He can only report to the higher-ups. It is undeniable that many people do admire people. But more people want to deal with you because you are too restless and an unstable factor. "

Lin Shaowen didn't say anything, just listened quietly.

"Speaking of Yuanshui Town, you are indeed very capable. Now Yuanshui Town is developing better than many places. But... so what? You can't be the secretary of Yuanshui Town for life." Director Liu reached out and patted his shoulder, "We Chinese have never lacked geniuses, but remember one sentence..."

"What?" Lin Shaowen said absentmindedly.

"Like the dust." Director Liu's tone rose slightly, "A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind... Everyone makes mistakes, but if you are too high-profile, someone will put you under a microscope to study, and as long as you make a mistake once, it will be irreparable. "

"I know, thank you Director Liu for your teachings, Shaowen will remember it in his heart." Lin Shaowen said sincerely.

"I hope you really remember it. "

Director Liu smiled and started the car.

Lin Shaowen looked at the night view of the city and fell into deep thought.

He was originally a cautious person, but he had been too successful in recent years, so he wanted to join the tide of the times and do something.

But he didn't expect that he had just started to move and had caused such a big commotion.

If there was no one to protect him, he would have been shot long ago.

Director Liu was right, his bad deeds could not be hidden from others.
