Chapter 142: Something happened

Views:

Feng Chunyan's words reminded Zhang Feng, he pondered a little, and said to Feng Chunyan: "Director Feng, the pharmacy diagonally across from Chuanxiangju is our home, but the yard is much larger than Chuanxiangju, so the driver Stop our car, otherwise it will not be easy to have a good meal today."

Feng Chunyan immediately understood the words and said to Wei Hong: "You go and arrange it."

Zhang Feng handed over his car key to Wei Hong and said, "Thank you!"

Wei Hong replied: "It should be, I should do it right away!"

Feng Chunyan’s car is followed by a driver. Wei Hong only needs to say hello. Zhang Feng’s car can’t be driven by anyone, so he can only move it himself. Fortunately, Wei Hong also has a notebook. Driving this kind of off-road vehicle doesn’t take much effort. Er, carefully drove the car to the door of the pharmacy and stopped, then locked the door and returned to Chuanxiangju.

Zhang Feng and Feng Chunyan have drunk a few glasses of wine in a row. Zhang Feng admired Feng Chunyan's drinking capacity, and said, "Director Feng is a huge amount." There are really few women who can drink white wine, Feng Chunyan even Drinking a few cups of noodles doesn't change the color, and Zhang Feng is not surprised. The more such a woman, the better he can drink on the wine table, so Zhang Feng subconsciously doesn't want to drink too much.

I have already served a few side dishes, all of which are very distinctive local dishes, such as hot and sour potato shreds, red oil lotus root, dried pot shredded vegetables, Sichuan small pickles, spicy dried radish, etc., and the combination is also varied, the main dish was originally Spicy crab, but Zhang Feng just said to eat boiled fish, Wei Hong asked to replace the spicy crab with boiled fish.

After a few glasses of wine, Feng Chunyan’s topic slowly got to work. There were only four people in the private room. Apart from Zhang Feng and Feng Chunyan, they were Wei Hong and a pretty young woman. Listen to Wei Hong’s introduction. , But it was a female clerk from the Radio and Television Bureau, named Mu Tianhui, who was brought over by Wei Hong today to accompany the wine.

Putting down the wine glass, Feng Chunyan said, "Secretary Zhang, the work of the Propaganda Department still needs your support."

Zhang Feng smiled slightly and said: "The propaganda department is a comprehensive functional department in charge of our party’s ideology. Propaganda work has always been our party’s heirloom, a pioneer in implementing policies and policies, and an indispensable part of party affairs. The county party committee has always attached great importance to it."

Feng Chunyan echoed: "Yes, but a lot of our county's publicity work is still a mere formality, such as the Broadcasting and Television Bureau. It is one of the earliest departments established in our county. Cable broadcasting has been around for more than ten years. It reaches all the households in the county, but the damage has been extremely serious over the years. Although the radio station is still operating barely, the country’s radio station has become useless."

Zhang Feng gave a "hmm" but didn't say anything. Zhang Feng didn't know what was happening at the county radio station, but the reason why broadcasting, an important cultural dissemination method, has fallen so badly now, is not just the damage to the equipment and the broken lines. Of course, there are factors of ineffective maintenance, but the backwardness of this method is beyond doubt, and it will completely withdraw from the stage in the next few years.

What Feng Chunyan's intentions are, Zhang Feng has already known it so far. The Propaganda Department is determined to do something, but the county's financial situation is stretched. On the one hand, it is difficult to guarantee even the most basic expenses. On the other hand, it is difficult to guarantee the most basic expenses. Spending money and spending excessively is a characteristic. For example, the government's three public expenditures are a black hole that is filled with dissatisfaction.

Zhang Feng had known for a long time that the county party committee’s Propaganda Department had set up a radio and television bureau because of funding problems. It was a county-run television station that had been planning for a long time. Even the radio station was struggling, but finance was the responsibility of the county head. , Is in charge of the Executive Deputy County Magistrate. The post of Executive Deputy Magistrate of Zhou’an County has been suspended for a long time. After Tan Jinghan, the County Magistrate came, he was helpless with the Bureau of Finance, and people did not listen to her. There are a lot of methods, but they don’t care about things.

Now the county party committee team has been supplemented all at once, but Feng Chunyan, the propaganda minister, has just arrived. After walking around the department in charge below, she felt a lot of chills in her heart. All she was in charge of was Qingshui Yamen, serious. Speaking of which, there are a lot of permissions, but if you want to do a few practical things, it is very difficult because there is no money.

The idea of asking Zhang Feng today is to get support from the Standing Committee through Zhang Feng and change the way to increase the budget for the department in charge. It is best to redo the budget because of the office budget of the Propaganda Department. Expenses have actually eaten up all of the next year's share. As for where the money has been spent, everyone knows well.

Of course, Zhang Feng is not willing to accept this stubbornness. It is not within the scope of his own power and responsibility.

However, what he didn't quite understand was how Feng Chunyan would move his mind to him. This is obviously a bit illogical. According to common sense, she should go to the county party secretary Xu Yuan or the county head Tan Jinghan for this matter. Yes, you can even take it directly to the Standing Committee and say everything will be done, but you don't find your own reason.

He couldn't figure it out, so he naturally refused to express his position easily. He made up his mind and ignored Feng Chunyan's next topic. He let Feng Chunyan go around. He just didn't make a difference, but concentrated on tasting. Qi Chuan Xiangju's dishes are full of praise for the chef's methods, but Feng Chunyan can't laugh or cry. Some tigers feel like they have nowhere to lay their claws.

When the boiled fish came up, the proprietress Xie Yun came in personally to toast. Zhang Feng quickly got up and thanked him. She was extremely satisfied with Xie Yun's craftsmanship, and even praised Xie Yun a little bit embarrassed: "Zhang Feng, if you like it, always Come on, Auntie, there is nothing else here, but it's much more delicious, that's okay, without delaying your drinking, Auntie is gone."

Xie Yun is different from He Fei. She has resigned and went to the sea. She is no longer in the system. She still feels like a neighbor in the neighborhood. She doesn't even bother him as the deputy secretary of the county party committee. But the more so, Zhang Feng On the contrary, the more he can let go, he is naturally cordial and unusual to Xie Yun.

Wei Hong is also a discerning person, and soon realized that Zhang Feng did not catch a cold in showing kindness to Feng Chunyan, and couldn't help but smile a little bit. He and Feng Chunyan could have some kind of relationship with him, and acted for Feng Chunyan. The County Party Standing Committee and the Minister of Propaganda were very happy at first, but they were very unhappy about her situation.

Before Feng Chunyan became a member of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee and the Minister of Propaganda, he was an editor at the city TV station. He had a special relationship with the newly appointed Minister of Propaganda. The administrative level of Xie is somewhat inconsistent, but the county party committee member and the propaganda minister have a lot more money than her original editor.

Speaking of it, Feng Chunyan’s professional level is nothing to say, but her skills as an official are not even a little bit worse. She can walk to her current position in the official career, in addition to high education and professional level, The most important thing is relationship and luck.

So in some things, things are often inconsistent with what she does and think. She banned Zhang Feng today, and the work on the front is still barely coping with it, but when it comes to serious matters, it is a bit unreasonable. She originally wanted to pass. This method expresses the meaning of alliance and even refuge, but when it comes out of the mouth, it completely changes. In the final analysis, it is the literati's innocent temperament.

Moreover, Feng Chunyan is really not good at expressing her true intentions on such occasions. After going around for a long time, she finally became a little dizzy, and Zhang Feng naturally didn’t understand. Wei Hong was on the sidelines, but his status was too different. There is a huge disparity. It would be nice to be able to sit at a table to accompany the wine and provide service, but I dare not interject.

Seeing that it was not an issue, Wei Hong stood up and said, "Secretary Zhang, Minister Feng, I'll get two more bottles of wine."

After Xie Yun came in to make a toast, the two bottles of Wuliangye on the table almost bottomed out. Wei Hong said this was an interruption to make Feng Chunyan sober, otherwise, if he keeps going around like this, he must scare Zhang Feng away. .

Zhang Feng didn't plan to ask Feng Chunyan to invite this meal, but he planned to invite it himself, so he insisted on staying here. If he changed the place, he would have found an excuse to withdraw. Wei Hong wanted to go out and get the wine, he saw After taking a look at Feng Chunyan, he said, "No need? Or, get some drinks? Does Minister Feng continue to drink white wine or something else?"

Feng Chunyan was thinking about it at the moment, and said casually: "Always have a good time with Secretary Zhang."

Zhang Feng heard about the lawsuit in his forehead, so he nodded, but in his heart he felt a little incomprehensible to Feng Chunyan. He seemed to be quite clever, why is he a little baffling to do things? If this is the case, some people will not dare to drink and eat with her in the future. Zhang Feng is already thinking about how to deal with this propaganda minister in the future.

Wei Hong came out of the box and patted his forehead subconsciously. He didn't know what to say to Feng Chunyan's appearance. Originally, he could just order the waiter at the door for things like wine, just like the box they were sitting in. There is a partition between the lobby and other boxes outside to prevent the noise from coming in, and there is also a special person at the door.

But the main purpose of Wei Hong came out was to create opportunities for Feng Chunyan. He felt that Feng Chunyan still couldn't let go of his words when he was there, that is, she couldn't let go of her face. For example, her original intention was to lean against Zhang Feng's camp. , Stand with Zhang Feng, or even take refuge in Zhang Feng, but when expressed, it becomes Zhang Feng's support for her work, which is completely reversed.

Even if it is euphemistic, it can't be euphemistic like this. Wei Hong heard a little bit of tears. In the end, Mu Tianhui had an idea and kicked Wei Hong secretly, so that Wei Hong had some hindsight. Find an excuse to come out, and then Mu Tianhui will naturally find an excuse to leave the box temporarily, just to create an opportunity for Feng Chunyan to lower her body and talk.

Therefore, after Wei Hong got out of the box, he sighed long, then took out a cigarette, and then said to the waiter at the door: "Bring another bottle of Wuliangye over and take it in later."

The waiter left with his front foot, and Mu Tianhui came out of the box with his back foot. After the box door was closed, he whispered to Wei Hong, "Director Wei, let's go out and talk." After all, there is only a doorway, and the movement outside is a little bit louder. , You can hear it inside the box, so the two opened the curtain on the heavy glass partition and stood outside the partition.

The place of Chuanxiangju is very large, with only three facades, but the depth of the inside is very long, and the area is over a thousand square meters. When it is decorated, it is divided into several different areas. Except for the lobby, all the surrounding areas are changed to The exquisite small box, which is still made of bamboo, looks unique and has a unique flavor. The bamboo wall is covered with various ornaments, especially the fiery red pepper, which contrasts with the green bamboo and green leaves. .

The box that Wei Hong wants is one of the most high-end boxes in Chuanxiangju, but it is located in the most secluded corner. It is not how luxurious and high-end the decoration is, but clean enough. These boxes are all selected in the corner. The location is separated by thick wooden walls or glass partitions, giving it a sense of tranquility.

Therefore, after Wei Hong and Mu Tianhui opened the curtains, they were immediately overwhelmed by the noise that rushed toward their faces. Standing at the side of the door, Mu Tianhui said vigorously: "Minister Feng has a good face. "

Wei Hong glared at Mu Tianhui and said, "You don't have a good face, everyone is not the same!"

Mu Tianhui covered her mouth and smiled and turned her head and said, "Who makes you come up with such a bad idea? Seems embarrassing your cousin."

Wei Hong's face sank slightly and said, "Just stop here! How many times have I told you that you should never mention that relationship. This is not something to show off. Why don't you have ears?"

Feng Chunyan and Wei Hong are cousins, but this relationship is rarely known. On the surface, Wei Hong feels very carefree, but in fact he is not lacking in mind. He did not intend to let anyone know about this relationship. , But Mu Tianhui is in the same village as him, and the relationship between the two is relatively close, and they happen to know such a relationship.

Mu Tianhui curled his lips and murmured, "What's so concealed? Leave it to others, I hope people all over the world will know it."

Wei Hong's ears are very good, he turned his head and glared at Mu Tianhui again, and said angrily: "What do you know, just listen!"

A noisy sound came from the box on the other side. Many people seemed to stand up and look over there. Wei Hong and Mu Tianhui were naturally attracted, but both of them had problems here, so they watched. The two eyes stopped paying attention, who knew that there was more and more chaos over there, without much effort, the people in the hall were rushing over.

Both Wei Hong and Mu Tianhui were a little bit stunned. It was obvious that someone was making trouble in Chuanxiangju. The two of them couldn't understand what kind of background Chuanxiangju was. Many people knew who was thinking about it. Here comes trouble? Almost all the guests dining nearby were alarmed, and many people even took the opportunity to slip away, even saving money for meals.

After hesitating for a while, Wei Hong said, "Wait here for a while. If the waiter brings the wine, don't put it in the box. I'll talk about it later. I'll see what's going on."

Mu Tianhui pulled Wei Hong's sleeve, and said nervously: "Don't let it go, Brother Wei, don't cause trouble!"

Wei Hong stretched out his hand and rubbed Mu Tianhui's head, and said, "If you say you have no brains, you are not convinced. Take your time to learn. Don't think that you can break into the world with a college student's books!" As soon as the crowd went to the opposite side of the small box, Mu Tianhui pouted and straightened his tousled hair with a face full of anger.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, not only did not wait for the waiter who came to deliver the wine, but also Wei Hong never returned. Mu Tianhui was so anxious that he had cursed Wei Hong how many times he was anxious. But when he heard the sound of police sirens, a dozen policemen swarmed in from the gate and rushed towards the corner over there. Mu Tianhui couldn't help but feel anxious.

Mu Tianhui and Wei Hong are not only in the same village but also neighbors. The two live in the opposite door. After graduating from university, she was originally assigned to the county nitrogen fertilizer plant. It is said to be a pretty good unit. The nitrogen fertilizer plant has achieved excellent benefits in recent years. The supply is in short supply. Farmers have to buy chemical fertilizers with a ticket, otherwise they have to buy bargained chemical fertilizers, and even the production material companies have become a big hit.

However, the nitrogen fertilizer plant in Zhou'an County had a troublesome incident. It was the drug case in the underground ice factory that Zhang Feng broke. No one thought that there was a "factory in a factory" in the nitrogen fertilizer plant. After the drug case Naturally, the nitrogen fertilizer plant was also in bad luck. Not only did most of the leaders enter the bureau, but the plant was basically paralyzed.

When the storm was faltering, the newly assigned college students would naturally not be paid attention to, and the department assigned by Mu Tianhui was not the production workshop, but the factory office. It was the hardest hit area. Almost everyone was invited to the Public Security Bureau for investigation. , So Mu Tianhui dared to go to the nitrogen fertilizer factory more and more, so he went through Weihong's way and was accepted by the county radio and television bureau.

Therefore, Mu Tianhui is still very popular in the Broadcasting and Television Bureau, working as a clerk in the bureau’s office, and being able to attend such an important feast today is inseparable from Wei Hong’s trust in her, in addition to his youth and beauty. Otherwise, Wei Hong and Feng Chunyan said nothing would make her appear on the wine table.

At this time, seeing the opposite party messing around and the police intervening, Mu Tianhui was a little completely panicked. The most important thing was that he was worried about Wei Hong’s accident. He turned around twice, gritted his teeth, and hurriedly ran towards the opposite side. Past.

Before Mu Tianhui could squeeze in, Wei Hong had already come out. Seeing the little girl's anxious expression, Wei Hong had a smile on his face, but he disappeared immediately, and said in a low voice, "Let's go back to the box. ."

Mu Tianhui breathed a sigh of relief, and asked nervously, "What's the matter? I think a lot of policemen also squeezed in just now."

Wei Hong said: "Something has happened, let's go, there will be fun later."

The two of them didn't wait for the waiter to deliver the wine, they pushed open the box and went in, and said to Zhang Feng and Feng Chunyan: "Secretary Zhang, Director Feng, something happened outside!"

Zhang Feng and Feng Chunyan no longer have the awkwardness of their talents at this time, and they have obviously reached an intention to cooperate. They are waiting for Wei Hong to bring in wine and drink two glasses, but they can't help but start to hear Wei Hong say this. , Feng Chunyan said: "What's the matter?"
