One day at a time.
Sunday morning.
The moment Dong Xuebing woke up, he immediately called Cheng Yandong. Both of them had exchanged numbers before leaving yesterday afternoon.
Ring … ring … ring … Dong Xuebing answered.
"Hello, Chief Dong?"
"It's me, Team Leader Cheng. Have you had breakfast?"
"I had just woken up and did not have time."
"Alright. Let me treat you to our Guangming Street for breakfast. I have something to discuss with you."
Cheng Yandong paused for a second. "Ok. Tell me a place, and I will take a cab over."
After deciding on a place, Dong Xuebing got out of bed and washed up. He drove to a breakfast restaurant to wait for him.
Ten minutes later, Cheng Yandong alighted from the cab.
"Did you wait long?"
"No. I had just arrived. Please have a seat."
The two of them sat on the chairs, called the waiter, and ordered a few dishes for breakfast.
After a while, Cheng Yandong took out a napkin and wiped his mouth. "Oh, you said you have something to discuss with me?"
Dong Xuebing nodded. "It's about the jade necklace. Didn't I tell you yesterday? Yes, I have found something. "
Cheng Yandong looked listless and did not have high hopes. "Oh? How is it? "
Dong Xuebing thought for a while and smiled. He reached into his pocket and took out a transparent plastic bag. "Take a look."
Cheng Yandong did not think much of it at first. He had called several times last night and got the same answer. Porcelain items can be covered up, but jade and jade cannot be restored. This is not only the case in China. Even overseas does not have the technology to restore jade and jade. At most, the broken pieces can be pieced together, but the cracks in the middle cannot be seen with the naked eye. That's why Cheng Yandong, who had destroyed his mother's belongings, was disheartened.
But when Cheng Yandong received the jade necklace from Dong Xuebing, he was stunned. He felt something is not right and immediately grabbed the necklace in his hand.
One minute …
Two minutes …
Three minutes …
Cheng Yandong took a deep breath. "This …"
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Is the restoration fine?"
Cheng Yandong was dumbfounded. How was it just okay? This f * cking necklace is as good as new! It seemed to be much newer than when he wore it yesterday! Not only was there no crack in the middle, there wasn't even a trace of repair. How did this happen?!
If it weren't for Cheng Yandong's knowledge, he would have thought Dong Xuebing had gotten someone to make this necklace. But that's impossible. This coiling dragon necklace cannot be made in a short period of time. It had only been less than a day since yesterday afternoon, and Cheng Yandong knew Dong Xuebing can't get someone to make it at the last minute. Furthermore, there are no identical leaves in the world, and there are no identical jade necklaces. Regardless of the jade material or the carving technique, this is definitely his coiling dragon necklace!
"You …" Cheng Yandong was taken aback. "What is going on?"
Dong Xuebing laughed. "I had contacted a friend yesterday. He had been doing research on this area recently, and he had come up with a type of biological glue. It can not only seal the cracks in the jade, but it can also hide the cracks from the naked eye."
Cheng Yandong asked in disbelief, "New technology? Why haven't I heard of it before? "
"Because the market demand is not high, my friend did not want to introduce it to the market. That's why we can't see it in the market now." Dong Xuebing made up a story and added. "But this technology is not perfect, and you must be careful when wearing it in the future. Oh, my friend doesn't want others to know about this technology, and he needs you to keep it a secret. This …"
"Don't worry!" Cheng Yandong replied excitedly. "I will keep this a secret!"
"Hehe, thank you very much."
"Listen to yourself. I should be the one thanking you!" Cheng Yandong grabbed Dong Xuebing's hand and shook it up and down. "Chief Dong, you had helped me a lot! Thank you! Thank you so much! "
"You are too polite."
"Oh, how much did you spend? I will transfer the money to your account. "
"You are treating me like a stranger." Dong Xuebing replied. "It's nothing. How can I ask you for money?"
Cheng Yandong shook his head. "No! How much did you spend? "
Dong Xuebing laughed. "You don't need to thank me."
"This restoration technology will cost a lot, and I cannot let you help me pay for it! No! No! "
Dong Xuebing rejected Dong Xuebing's offer for half a year. Cheng Yandong doesn't know what to say. He glanced at the Porsche parked at the entrance and knew a leader who can drive a Cayenne should not be short of money. Cheng Yandong might be wearing a jade necklace worth more than a million RMB, but he does not have many savings. The necklace is his family heirloom, and even a few decades ago, jade is not worth as much as jade. Cheng Yandong is also working in a weak department, and even if Dong Xuebing asked for a few hundred thousand RMB, he cannot afford it. That's why Cheng Yandong did not say anything and thanked Dong Xuebing again. Dong Xuebing had helped him solve a big problem, but at the same time, he owes Dong Xuebing a favor.
A few minutes passed.
Dong Xuebing and Cheng Yandong finished their breakfast and walked out of a restaurant. Dong Xuebing's elderly home is across the road.
Dong Xuebing had picked this place for lunch, and he smiles and points to the other side of the road. "Chief Cheng, if you have the chance, can you give our elderly home some guidance? You can let us learn from you and improve. "
Smart people don't need to waste time.
Cheng Yandong understood what Dong Xuebing meant. "Did your Guangming Street Office submit the application for the elderly model unit?"
"I had just been appointed, and I did not have the time to submit it." Dong Xuebing replied. "I had wanted to submit it, but I am not sure if I can submit it now."
Cheng Yandong hesitated. "It's too late to submit it now."
Dong Xuebing did not reply.
"But I do have a floating quota in my hands." Cheng Yandong looks at Dong Xuebing. Since he understood why Dong Xuebing helped him, he felt more at ease and is willing to return the favor. If Dong Xuebing did not need much help to restore the jade, he can also let Guangming Street Office have a floating quota. "Alright. You all go and get ready this morning, and Ping An Street Office is almost done with their inspection. Our inspection team will go over to your district in the morning and see what's going on."
"Ah … you are welcome to visit us."
"Haha, that's settled then."
After sending Team Leader Cheng back to his hotel, Dong Xuebing hummed a tune as he drove back to Guangming Street Office. I'm going to get credit!
Street Office Building.
Dong Xuebing went upstairs to the Party Affairs Office. "Chief Zhou!"
Zhou Yanru heard Dong Xuebing and quickly ran out of the office. "Chief Zhou, you are looking for me?"
"Inform all the leaders of the departments immediately." Dong Xuebing said. "Also inform those who are resting at home. Small meeting room. Emergency Party Working Committee meeting!"
Emergency?
Something big happened?
Zhou Yanru did not dare to delay and immediately went to inform the leaders.
… …
Half an hour later.
Office, small meeting room.
Dong Xuebing had entered the meeting room early and sat at the head of the table, reading the newspaper.
While Zhou Yanru was preparing the documents, the Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, Qu Yiqiang, arrived. He exchanged glances with Zhou Yanru, but Zhou Yanru shook her head slightly to indicate that she did not know. Qu Yiqiang did not ask further and sat in his seat. Not long after, the Police Station Chief Peng Gang, Deputy Director Yu Rongfeng, and Guo Mingfeng, the three generals of the Geng Family, arrived. After a while, some of the Party Working Committee members also came in. The last to enter the room was Geng Xinke. From his slightly puzzled expression, everyone could see that Secretary Geng did not understand what was going on.
"Chief." Zhou Yanru was in charge of recording the meeting minutes. She was sitting at the side with a notebook. "Everyone is here."
Dong Xuebing put down the newspaper and looked at everyone. "Let's start the meeting."
The meeting room was quiet, and everyone was looking at Dong Xuebing. They were waiting to see what happened. Why is there an emergency Party Working Committee meeting?
The previous Party Secretary had never called for such an emergency meeting before. When Mayor Yuehua was still the Guangming Street Office's Party Secretary, he had only called for such an emergency meeting twice. Every time, it was an emergency meeting. That's why everyone was shocked when they heard it was an emergency meeting. All the leaders in the government are afraid of trouble and accidents.
Dong Xuebing knew time is running out, and he immediately answered the question. "The leader from the Central Government's Respecting the Elderly Model Inspection Group had approached me. He wants to come to Guangming Street Office for an inspection. I think he wants to nominate us to the Central Government."
What Dong Xuebing said was shocking!
Even Qu Yiqiang was shocked, let alone the rest of the people!
Geng Xinke, Zhou Yanru, Peng Gang, and the rest almost fell off their chairs!
Damn! F * * k you!
You are really trying to poach someone?!
Yu Rongfeng was stunned. "Chief! This is … "
Dong Xuebing calmly replied. "Let me make one thing clear first. We are not trying to snatch someone from another street. This time, it is Team Leader Cheng who approached me. During the inspection, he had seen how our Guangming Street Office is doing. After all, our Guangming Street Office is so close to Ping An Street, and the inspection group is satisfied with our work. That's why he came to me. I can't reject him."
F * cking bullsh * t!
If it's not for you, the inspection group would have gone crazy! Why did they change the itinerary at the last minute?
Geng Xinke and Zhou Yanru were the only two leaders who knew Dong Xuebing was trying to poach someone from Guangming Street Office. But they did not expect Dong Xuebing to do it! Dong Xuebing even managed to snatch that person over!
F * * k you!
I have never seen such an immoral leader!
