The two old friends first asked each other about the situation of each other's families. Luo Jintong complained, "My two children are all good-for-nothings. Xiao Qiang got a third-tier college entrance examination and couldn't find a good job after graduation. Now, he is actually working as a courier in the provincial capital. He really made me lose face in the provincial capital. When Xiao Shan graduated from university, I arranged for her to work in the district education bureau. She has a lot of work and can't earn much money. Sigh, I'm so angry. Brother, your son is still the best. He quietly became the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Good lord, he is the most popular person in the city. Compared to Xiao Rui, one is on the ground and one is in the sky!"
Li Jianmin had been wondering why this person suddenly came to visit. It was reasonable to say that although he had retired from the second line, he used to be an important person. As the saying goes, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse. He should not come to visit his own family. Now that he suddenly mentioned his son, he finally understood. Haha, this old thing came for his precious son. He saw that Xiao Rui had a meteoric rise and his Li family had a rising trend, so he specially came to mend the relationship with his family. This old thing was shrewd. He didn't want to suffer losses, and he didn't want to take advantage of others. But he didn't think that there was no such thing as taking advantage of others without suffering losses.
Li Jianmin laughed and said modestly, "Don't say that. You two children are very smart. It's just that the time is not right yet. Wait a few more years. Young people always have to endure hardships to develop. You are like our family's Xiao Rui. Didn't he also endure five or six years in the Water Conservancy Bureau before? " Luo Jintong heard this and asked nervously, "Speaking of this, I don't understand. Xiao Rui was in the Water Conservancy Bureau. How did the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee pick him to be his secretary? I heard that the Municipal Party Committee's Song Shuji was sent from the province. It's reasonable to say that he would never know Xiao Rui. Did he know Xiao Rui before he came? "
Li Jianmin laughed and said, "I'm not sure. Maybe our family's Xiao Rui is lucky. Unlike me, I can only be a worker in my life. Haha." Luo Jintong said, "Old Brother, you haven't been doing very well in this life, but you're doing fine now. With a good child like Lil Rui working hard for you, you're finally at the end of your suffering. But I can't. My two children are doing worse than the other. Alas, it's really worrying me... " Li Jianmin still didn't know why he came, but he didn't take the initiative to ask him. He wanted to wait for him to say it himself. He picked up the teapot and poured more water for him. He said with a smile, "The children and grandchildren have their own fortune. You don't have to worry about them. Drink water, drink water."
Luo Jintong sighed and said, "That's true. But as a parent, how can I not worry? Alas, brother, we are sworn brothers. I won't treat you as an outsider. I'll just tell you what I want to say. I'm going to call Xiao Qiang back and arrange for him to work in the district. As for Xiao Shan, her husband's family isn't doing well. She still has to worry about me. I'm going to change her to a more profitable and profitable unit … "Li Jianmin interrupted," You have a good plan. What are you waiting for? "Luo Jintong smiled bitterly and said," Alas, if I have the ability, I would have done it for the two children a long time ago. "Li Jianmin pretended to be surprised and said," Who said that it's fine if you don't have the ability? How can you, Luo Jintong, not have the ability? You are an old leader of the District Organization Department. You have a lot of connections in the district. How can you not be able to handle such a small matter? "
Luo Jintong sighed and said, "Brother, don't laugh at me. Don't you know that the tea cools down when people leave? Speaking of which, I have a stomach full of anger. Fuck, I haven't even retired yet. I'm just a second-tier official and no one listens to me. In the past, everyone treated me like a Bodhisattva. But now, they all treat me like a god of plague. Alas, the people in the government are too realistic. "Li Jianmin sneered in his heart. Luo Jintong, aren't you the same kind of person? Luo Jintong said again, "Brother, I don't have the ability now. But our Xiao Rui has the ability. I came here today to ask Xiao Rui for help. Xiao Qiang and Xiao Shan are his younger brother and sister. As the older brother, he should help his younger brother and sister … "
Li Rui took a taxi to the Drunken Immortal Building. After getting off the taxi, he bumped into the Northern District's Executive Deputy District Chief Zhu Xinnian and his secretary Bai Jie.
Zhu Xinnian was stunned when he saw him. He didn't know if it was because he forgot his name or because he didn't expect to meet him here. Bai Jie was very clever. He immediately whispered, "Boss, this is Director Li Rui from the Municipal Party Committee's General Office."
Zhu Xinnian naturally knew Li Rui, but he didn't expect to meet him at the entrance of the restaurant. Hearing Bai Jie's reminder, he smiled and walked to Li Rui. He called him affectionately, "Director Li, what a coincidence." Then he took the initiative to extend his right hand, fully showing his respect for Li Rui, the first secretary of the Municipal Party Committee.
Li Rui was naturally more polite. He hurriedly extended his hands and shook his hands. He smiled and said, "Hello, Director Zhu. What a coincidence. Haha."
Zhu Nian Nian looked at him expectantly and said, "Director Li, I was just thinking about when I would have the time to visit you. It's just that you're busy with work and I don't dare to visit you easily. Since we've met today, why don't we go together? Let's go to my private room and have a good chat. "As he spoke, he affectionately held Zhu Xinnian's arm and signaled him to go with him.
Li Ruixin thought to himself, "Zhu Xinnian, don't pretend to be polite with me. Do you think I'm a fool who doesn't understand your intentions? The former Mayor of the Northern District, Zhao Xiaotao, has been removed from his position. The position of the Northern District's Mayor will definitely be changed. As the Deputy Mayor, you have a 50% chance of succeeding him. So you want to express your goodwill to me so that I can put in a good word for you in front of my boss, Song Chaoyang. Haha, your wishful thinking is not bad. Unfortunately, I won't fall for it. I have already made an appointment with a beautiful woman. You better save it. "Zhu Xinnian put on a regretful expression and said," Aiya, Mayor Zhu, I'm really sorry. I have an appointment with a very important friend this afternoon.
I can't make an appointment. "Li Rui opened his mouth and said," Tonight, my wife is coming back from the provincial capital. I have to go to the train station to pick her up. "Zhu Xinnian didn't give up and asked," What about Monday night? "Li Rui smiled and said," I have to go to the provincial capital for training next week. "Zhu Xinnian asked curiously," Training? What training? "Li Rui said," The provincial government organized a training on public crisis. " Zhu Xinnian nodded and said anxiously, "Then can you give me some time after dinner?"
How could Li Rui not understand the meaning behind his words? But he still didn't give him a chance. He sighed and said, "Aiya, I have something to do after dinner. I have to leave immediately." Zhu Xinnian sighed and said, "Why is it so unlucky? Haha, Director Li, you are really busy. "Li Rui said," I have no choice. Haha. "Zhu Xinnian didn't give up. He thought for a while and walked to a corner. He said in a low voice, "Director Li, although we haven't been friends for a long time, I have admired you for a long time and wanted to be friends with you. Of course, it's not too late for us to be friends in the future. Sooner or later, you will know what kind of person I am. I, Zhu Xinnian, don't have any big achievements. The biggest advantage is being friends …"
Li Rui nodded and said, "Sure." Zhu Xinnian lowered his voice and said, "I have something that I need your help with. I originally wanted to make friends with you first before asking for help. That way, it wouldn't seem rude. But you haven't had the time and my matter is urgent, so I can only ask you now. I hope you don't mind." Li Rui said, "Oh? Is there anything that Mayor Zhu can't do? If Mayor Zhu can't do it, what can a small figure like me do? " Zhu Xinnian raised his eyebrows and said, "This matter must be done by you. You know the situation in the district. Zhao Xiaotao is finished. After he is demoted, there will be a new Mayor …"
Li Rui didn't guess wrongly. Zhu Xinnian was asking for his help. He wanted to talk to the Municipal Party Committee's Secretary, Song Chaoyang, to help him defeat the District Party Committee's Deputy Secretary and become the Mayor. After Zhu Xinnian told him what he wanted, he promised him some benefits. "Brother, if I become the Mayor, you will be the one who will make the most contributions. I will not forget your kindness. In the future, we will share the benefits together. I will not mistreat you."
Li Rui was used to this kind of thing. He didn't reject or agree to it. He smiled and said, "Let me see."
When Zhu Xinnian heard these empty words, he was very happy, as if he had already received his approval. He said, "Next week, when you come back from your training, I will be the host and treat you to a good time."
Li Rui just smiled and did not say anything. He glanced at the white hero standing not far away and thought that if he wanted to deal with him, he only needed to tell Zhu Xinnian that his secretary had an old grudge against him, and he would be done for. However, it was meaningless to deal with such a small fry, and he was not a vengeful person, so he decided to let him go.
Zhu Xinnian said a few more polite words and patted Feng Yu's shoulder before walking into the building.
Only then did Bai Renjie run over. He smiled at Li Rui and said, "Director Li, nice to meet you. When are you free? I'll invite you out for a chat, okay?" Li Rui smiled and said, "Sure, let's keep in touch."
