Chu Shiyuan looked at Fang Zhicheng carefully. Seeing that he spoke calmly and forcefully, he couldn't help laughing. He shook his head and sighed, "Aren't you afraid that I will tell him this?"

Fang Zhicheng shrugged and said with a smile: "I calculated that this situation would not happen to you two, so I told you this."

Chu Shiyuan sighed and said, "Just as the rumors say, you are indeed a very smart guy, and you know how to analyze people's psychology. You just said those words to me deliberately, just to dispel my doubts and vigilance, right? You might as well be straightforward. What exactly do you want to trade with me?"

"The word 'transaction' is a bit too harsh." Fang Zhicheng held the thermos cup in both hands, absorbing the heat from it. "Director Chu, Governor Zhou Guoyi and Secretary Wendi are going fishing together. I would like to invite you to go with us. Do you have any idea?"

Chu Shiyuan immediately understood what Fang Zhicheng meant when he heard what Fang Zhicheng said. He exhaled lightly and said, "Since they are willing to go fishing together, how can there be no one to accompany them? Director Fang, don't worry. Even if I have something to do, I will turn it down."

"Then what about Director Ni?" Fang Zhicheng asked with a smile.

Chu Shiyuan's mouth corners raised, and he finally smiled, knowing that Fang Zhicheng's ultimate goal was to break the connection between him and Jiang Yong, and Ni Mingyang was one of the links. He said in a deep voice: "I have been discussing the bargaining chips with Old Ni. The bargaining chips you give me now make me unable to refuse, so I naturally know what to do."

"Then I'll wait for you to go fishing together this weekend!" After saying that, Fang Zhicheng picked up the thermos and slowly walked out of the office.

Chu Shiyuan sighed and looked at the tea-making utensils on the table. He was just about to make tea, but Fang Zhicheng was very sensitive and left first.

At this moment, he suddenly had an illusion that the NDRC was entering a new era, and the previous set of survival rules was no longer suitable. Fang Zhicheng was skillfully using his abilities to reorganize the high-level network of the NDRC. In this regard, Shen Hanchun seemed to be led by him.

Chapter 0893 Fishing is just a cover

Fortunately, the weather was nice. It was gloomy a few days ago, but it suddenly cleared up on the weekend. The sun was warm and it felt warm on people. Although the temperature was not high, it was above zero degrees. Therefore, the fishing house business was good. Customers who came to fish stood every few meters in the fish pond.

Fang Zhicheng carried two fishing bags and walked side by side with Chu Shiyuan. The two talked and laughed, as if they were close friends who had known each other for many years. Of course, Chu Shiyuan also carried two fishing bags, one for himself and the other for Executive Vice Governor Zhao Guoyi.

Zhao Guoyi and Song Wendi walked in front, both with smiles on their faces. Suddenly, Zhao Guoyi waved to a beautiful woman standing by the pond. Song Wendi walked over, shook her hand, and said with a smile, "Ms. Shi is getting more and more beautiful."

Shi Xian smiled faintly and said, "Why don't you see President Wen?"

Song Wendi shrugged and smiled bitterly: "She has a meeting this morning and must attend it, and then she will rush over."

Shi Xian smiled and said, "It would be best if she could come, otherwise it would not be good for me to be the only female comrade here!"

Zhao Guoyi said: "Don't worry, Zhicheng has also made an appointment with Qingya. It was Qingya who helped us to contact this fishing resort today. So you won't be lonely."

Shi Xian nodded and said, "You men like fishing, but we women don't have this interest. The three of us can have a show together and chat, and time will pass quickly."

As they were talking, Zhao Qingya came over from not far away. She was wearing a fashionable casual jacket today, her two slender long legs were stepping on ten-centimeter high heels, her delicate white cheeks, dimples and a faint smile, her black hair was piled high, and her bright and clear eyes were full of life.

When Shi Xian saw Zhao Qingya, it was like she had found a life-saving straw, and she pulled Zhao Qingya aside to talk to her.

Although Zhao Guoyi and Shi Xian have confirmed their relationship, they still haven't taken the final step. No one mentioned marriage, so Shi Xian did not attend the death anniversary of the old Buddha of the Zhao family.

Shi Xian is a deputy-level cadre of the Department of Culture. When she was young, she was an outstanding actor in the provincial song and dance troupe. She now not only holds a position in the Department of Culture, but also serves as the vice president of Qiongjin Art College. Some time ago, Qin Yuming contacted Shi Xian through Zhao Qingya's relationship, so Yuming School now not only cooperates with Yinzhou University School of Art, but also has a good cooperative relationship with Qiongjin Art College.

Yuming Artist School operates in a market-oriented model. In the past two years, it has successfully packaged well-known stars such as Yang Xiaoqiao, and has become famous among private schools. However, compared with colleges and universities, in addition to having enough students, it also needs teacher resources. After cooperating with Qiongjin Art College and Yinzhou University Art College, the colleges and universities will arrange lecturers to teach at Yuming Artist School from time to time. In this way, teachers can have more income, and the teacher team of the artist school can also be supplemented, which can achieve a win-win effect.

Although Zhao Guoyi and Song Wendi don't fish often, they are familiar with the process of fishing. After setting up the pond nest, they began to fish quietly. Chu Shiyuan and Fang Zhicheng had a tacit understanding. At the beginning, they played with each other for two days. After the two leaders had made some gains, they started to fiddle with the fishing gear.

Having been immersed in the officialdom for too long, they both have a tacit understanding that they should not steal the limelight from their leaders, whether at work or in life. Zhao Guoyi and Song Wendi got along very well today, but they were still holding back a lot of energy, which could be seen from the details of fishing. Both of them had serious expressions, and after casting the hook, they were very focused, and everyone wanted to catch the first fish.

As a result, Zhao Guoyi caught one first, and Song Wendi caught one shortly afterwards. The two smiled at each other, and Fang Zhicheng could see that there was a spark. The fun of fishing lies here. If there is no competition, it will be much less fun. Chu Shiyuan threw the hook into the pond, and Fang Zhicheng also threw the hook casually, then inserted the fishing rod in a fixed position and ran to the side to help Zhao Guoyi and Song Wendi pour hot water.

Chu Shiyuan originally had a strong desire in his heart to have a secret fishing competition with Fang Zhicheng, but Fang Zhicheng ignored it and went straight to flatter the two leaders. He couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

Fang Zhicheng poured hot water for the two of them, and when he saw Wenfeng coming over, he walked over to chat. Zhao Qingya was eating melon seeds, rolled her eyes at him unhappily, and said, "Aren't you fishing? Why are you here? We are chatting."

"What are you talking about? Just join in the fun!" Fang Zhicheng snatched a few melon seeds from Zhao Qingya's hand and started chewing them.

Wen Feng smiled and said, "As a grown man, you'd better not listen to what women are talking about. Go fishing now. The way you're fishing, all the bait will be eaten up. I'm afraid you won't be able to catch any fish."

Fang Zhicheng shrugged and said with a smile: "Fishing is a cover. The real purpose is to bring the two big guys, Zhao and Song, together." After he finished speaking, he reached out his hand to touch Zhao Qingya's palm, but was gently slapped away by Wen Feng.

Wen Feng glanced at him and said, "If you want to eat the melon seeds, peel them yourself. I can't stand bullying Qingya all the time."

Wen Feng’s attack was quite heavy-handed. Fang Zhicheng touched the back of his hand, smiled awkwardly, and turned back to the fish pond.

Wen Feng sighed when she saw Zhao Qingya's eyes drifting towards Fang Zhicheng from time to time. Many people knew about the relationship between Zhao Qingya and Fang Zhicheng. Knowing that the two were very close but did not make it to the last step, Wen Feng felt sorry for them, "Qingya, sometimes when you miss an opportunity, you have to give it up. You are a smart person and you should know how to make choices. Of course, if you feel that you can't give up, you should take the initiative."

In the first sentence, Wen Feng was reminding Zhao Qingya to let go, but in the second sentence, it seemed like she was encouraging her.

Zhao Qingya shook her head helplessly and smiled bitterly, sighing: "It's hard to control people's emotions. I think I'm a decisive person, but I can't make up my mind about this matter. Maybe it's best to let nature take its course."

Wen Feng shook her head helplessly and smiled bitterly. She glanced at Fang Zhicheng and was suddenly shocked. Why was she so sensitive about the relationship between Zhao Qingya and Fang Zhicheng? Let the young people handle their own affairs.

Fang Zhicheng sat in his seat, waiting for a while in boredom. The float started to move, and he casually lifted the fishing rod. The fish that had just bitten the bait was frightened and ran away. Chu Shiyuan was not far away. Seeing Fang Zhicheng do this, he couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly. Fang Zhicheng was obviously just looking for an opportunity and excuse to relax today. As for whether he could catch fish, he didn't care at all.

Fang Zhicheng sat for a while, then walked towards the three women and chatted for a while. Then, Fang Zhicheng returned to the fish pond with a smile on his face. He casually lifted the fishing rod and found that there were still no fish. He then went to Zhao Guoyi and Song Wendi to chat for a while.

Chu Shiyuan observed Fang Zhicheng from the side. This was a young man who was very good at getting along with others. With his help, the relationships between everyone became much more harmonious.

Fang Zhicheng left Zhao Guoyi and walked towards Chu Shiyuan. He first glanced at his fish guard and said with a smile, "Director Chu, we have a great harvest!"

Chu Siyuan shook his head and said lightly: “I’m afraid it’s not as good as Governor Guoyi and Secretary Wendi’s.”

Fang Zhicheng patted Chu Shiyuan on the shoulder and said, "Fishing is just a leisure activity, don't take it too seriously."

Chu Shiyuan shook his head helplessly and said, "I'm so much older than you, but I can't be as calm as you."
