Rebirth of Merry Career

Xu Shi went crazy that night and made the beauty angry. In the next few days, when she saw Zhou Jing again, Qin Xiaoqian kept her pretty face sullen, her face covered with frost, and she didn't show the slightest smile. It seemed that suddenly, the two of them The relationship has become much more distant.

Zhou Jing was like a mirror in his heart, but he was in distress. He knew that he had made a mistake first, but he couldn't apologize in person. He just took the opportunity of going shopping in the mall and bought a jade ornament. When no one was around at noon, he secretly Put it on Qin Xiaoqian's desk.

The shape of the ornament is very unique. In the front are two maidens on patrol, and in the back is a little palace eunuch holding an umbrella. The workmanship is exquisite and lifelike. After Qin Xiaoqian looked at it, she covered her mouth with her hand and snickered for a long time. She already guessed what it was Whoever sent it, didn't break it.

The next afternoon, Zhou Jing came back from a meeting. He had just sat down behind his desk when his eyes fell on the desk. He saw a pair of large scissors with a cold light on top of a stack of documents. He picked up the scissors and played with them for a long time. Hehe laughed.

"Your Majesty is urging her to leave the palace!" He took the scissors, and cut a few times in the air below, then opened the drawer, threw the scissors in, and held the teacup, thinking of the beautiful scenery in the bed that night, still Some eyes are hot and heartbeat, and I can't help it.

However, Zhou Jing also knows that the relationship with those two beauties can only end here. Half a step ahead, there will be an insurmountable minefield full of risks. Once it is not handled properly, it is easy to mess up It is really not worth the loss if friends turn against each other.

After a few days of busy work, the materials were finally prepared. On Friday morning, Zhou Jing drove a car and took a few people from China Merchants to the city government compound. They stood by the car and waited for more than ten minutes. Deputy Mayor Wang Yannian came Accompanied by Xie Changzhi and others, he walked briskly.

Zhou Jing greeted him hurriedly, walked a few steps quickly, and greeted politely: "Hello, Mayor Wang."

"Haha, the young man is energetic enough." Wang Yannian smiled casually, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, Zhou Jing in front of him was wearing a suit and leather shoes, a navy blue tie on a light blue shirt, and a pair of polished leather shoes, looking young Capable and handsome.

Zhou Jing looked up, but he didn't see Gao Yuan among the escorts, so he said in surprise, "Mayor Wang, isn't Secretary Gao going?"

"Well, he has other things to do." Wang Yannian smiled, handed the briefcase to Zhou Jing, surrounded by everyone, came to the Audi car, just opened the door, suddenly stopped, looked at the He pointed at a limited edition Land Rover, and asked in confusion, "Who owns this car?"

"Mayor Wang, this Land Rover is Comrade Zhou Jing's new car." Xie Changzhi rushed over and hurriedly said. After speaking, he crossed his arms and looked at Zhou Jing coldly, thinking to himself, you are too flamboyant. I don't know how to restrain myself, and I'm showing off by driving this car to the city hall. What does it look like for a small deputy section chief to drive such a luxury car!

Wang Yannian smiled, nodded and said: "The car is not bad, let's take this one!"

"Okay." Zhou Jing smiled, opened the car door, let Wang Yannian into the car, gave Xie Changzhi a sidelong glance, closed the car door, walked around to the front, sat in the driver's seat, started the car, and took the lead amidst the roar of the engine. drove out.

"It's really regarded as a close friend, it's too obvious!" Xie Changzhi frowned slightly, with a gloomy face, without saying a word, got into two small cars with the others, and left the government compound under the guidance of this Land Rover , heading towards the provincial capital.

Wang Yannian lit a cigarette, opened the car window, looked at the scenery in the distance, and said softly: "Xiaojing, some time ago, did Gao Yuan use my banner to introduce you to a few businessmen, including me Brother?"

Zhou Jing's heart skipped a beat, and he said softly, "There is such a thing."

Wang Yannian frowned, took a few puffs of cigarettes, and said calmly: "This Gao Yuan is really courageous, he doesn't focus on his work, and thinks of crooked things. "

Zhou Jing couldn't figure out the situation, so he weighed his words carefully and said cautiously: "Mayor Wang, you don't have to worry about what happened last time. The Jinghu side has always been business-like and has no good reputation. to engineering."

"That's okay." Wang Yannian smiled lightly, dusted off the cigarette ash, and changed the subject: "How is your friend's affairs going?"

Zhou Jing smiled, and said vaguely, "Fortunately, I have confidence in the public security department, and I believe they will handle it fairly."

"Give that thing to Mayor Wei?" Wang Yannian frowned slightly, as if he was obviously not satisfied with the answer, so he asked another question, staring at Zhou Jing with piercing eyes, observing his expression.

Zhou Jingjing nodded, and said softly: "It has already been handed over, Mayor Wang. In handling this case, I am indeed not calm enough, and I am a little emotional."

Wang Yannian waved his hand and said with a smile: "Young people like to show loyalty and put a knife on their friends. This is actually understandable. However, things in the officialdom are sometimes very complicated. If you don't pay attention, you will get angry. In the future Be extra careful when dealing with something like this."

Zhou Jing felt warm in his heart, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Mayor Wang, for reminding me. I will pay attention to it in the future."

Wang Yannian extinguished the cigarette, flicked it out casually, turned on the stereo in the car, played a soothing music, and asked knowingly, "Xiaojing, didn't you buy this car yourself?"

"No, it was a gift from a friend." Zhou Jing drove past the intersection and laughed.

"That friend is really generous!" Wang Yannian smiled knowingly, but didn't bring up the topic clearly. After thinking for a while, he pondered: "Now is the time when there is a shortage of people. I wanted to transfer you to work beside me, but since you were secretly If he has taken a fancy to it, I won't argue with him."

Zhou Jing frowned slightly, and said softly: "Mayor Wang, if you really need it, I can completely push it away."

Wang Yannian waved his hands, and said meaningfully: "No, it's more beneficial to go there, and you can learn a lot of news, but after you go, you should always keep in touch."

Zhou Jing's heart skipped a beat, he understood his implication, and said in a low voice, "Okay, please don't worry."

Wang Yannian smiled, then squinted his eyes, leaned against the car window, frowning, as if he was thinking about some difficult problem, and did not speak for a long time.

The car left Qingyang, got on the highway, drove steadily for more than four hours, and finally arrived at Jiangdu, the provincial capital, arrived at a three-star hotel, booked a room, had lunch in a hurry, and took a short rest. In the guest room of the hotel, everyone was called together and held a mobilization meeting to attract investment.

At the meeting, Wang Yannian did not follow the script, but made an impromptu speech. He gave a simple and concise explanation of the task of attracting investment this time, and then assigned the task. We will gather again at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, and the director Xie Changzhi will personally lead the team to negotiate. He and Zhou Jing had other arrangements and would not attend the investment promotion meeting for the time being.

Zhou Jing felt a little surprised, but didn't ask any more questions. After the meeting ended, everyone left one after another. Wang Yannian left Zhou Jing alone in the room, played two games of chess, then dropped the pieces, went to the window, and made a phone call. , said a few words in a low voice, and after hanging up the phone, he waved his big hand: "Come on, let's go out and look around and choose some gifts for the old leader."

Zhou Jing said good, and accompanied Wang Yannian downstairs, got into the car, and drove to the most prosperous commercial street in Jiangdu City. On the way, Wang Yannian suddenly changed his mind, pointed to an alley on the west side of the road, and said softly: "Xiaojing, go through this way, let's go to the antique market, the old man is at home and likes to play with some antiques, if you do what you like, you can get twice the result with half the effort!"

Knowing that he was teaching by example and explaining the way of giving gifts, Zhou Jing smiled slightly, without saying a word, he went straight into the alley, twisted and turned, came out of the alley, and came to a side street, but saw that the shops on both sides of the street were decorated. It is antique and charming, and there are some special archways, which are very eye-catching. If you don't see all kinds of cars passing by on the street, you will think that you have driven back to the Ming and Qing Dynasties all the way.

After parking the car, Zhou Jing accompanied Wang Yannian on foot, and went door to door along the antique shops along the street, savoring carefully the dazzling array of porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, and other antiques. Relaxed and comfortable.

It can be seen that Wang Yannian is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and has a lot of research on antiques. For some antiques that cannot be distinguished from the age and the authenticity, he can always quote classics, discuss with the shopkeeper, and even catch loopholes. Arguing people out of reason.

The two walked around for half an hour and walked through more than a dozen stores. After careful selection, Wang Yannian finally settled on a piece of porcelain. It was a Longquan phoenix ear bottle. But it is extremely fine, the glaze color is pink and green, like ice and jade, the shape is simple, dignified and elegant, and it is exciting, but the asking price is a bit high. The owner asked for 25 yuan. .

Wang Yannian didn't have enough cash with him, so he asked Zhou Jing to watch in the store. He took his passbook and went to a nearby bank to withdraw money. Zhou Jing was afraid that the road would be unsafe, so he hurriedly followed him out, and whispered: "Mayor Wang, it's still time Let's go together, be careful not to be watched."

"No, just keep an eye on the bottle. The owner of this treasure has misjudged it. It's worth at least this amount!" Wang Yannian lowered his voice, raised his hand again, and signaled that the bottle is worth more than 50 yuan.

Seeing the usual solemn and solemn Mayor Wang showing a profiteer-like smile, Zhou Jing also found it interesting, so he said with a smile: "Well, Mayor Wang, you go and come back quickly, I will stay here to guard Let me show you my baby."

"Look, there's a mistake, you're the only one asking!" Wang Yannian told him, and strode forward.

Looking at his back, Zhou Jing couldn't help feeling a little emotional. He didn't even shy away from giving gifts to the old leader, which undoubtedly proved that Wang Yannian had already regarded himself as an absolute confidant. This trust is really rare and touching.

Back in the room, Zhou Jing pulled up a chair and sat down, looked at the skinny old man behind the counter, felt a little sympathetic to him, and said softly, "Old man, is business easy now?"

The old man picked up a rag, wiped a few pieces of porcelain on the counter, shook his head and said, "It's not very good, fakes are flooding the market now, but real antiques can't be sold. Our family is an old store for decades, so I'd rather pay for it." I don’t want to smash the brand if I want to win the business.”

Zhou Jingjing nodded, admiringly said: "The old man has insight, as long as he has this concept, making money will be a matter of time."

The old man smiled, raised his eyes to look at Zhou Jing, and said softly: "Young man, that one was an official just now, and he looks very dignified."

Zhou Jing smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "No, we are also in business."

The old man waved his hand, and said disapprovingly: "Impossible, there are businessmen who buy these things, but there are still a lot of gifts for officials. The one just now has a lot of background and a lot of aura, at least a cadre above the deputy department level. "

"" Zhou Jing couldn't help laughing, and said softly: "The old man is born with insight, so you can show me, what level am I?"

The old man snorted, squinted his eyes and said: "You are so young, how can you be a leader, you are just a driver."

Zhou Jing smiled without saying a word, picked up a dragon and phoenix Chengxiang ornament carved from Shoushan stone, played with it, and thought to himself: "The old leader has retired, and Wang Yannian is still willing to spend a lot of money to give gifts, which shows that this person has no energy. Small, but the cadres who came out of Qingyang are rarely famous in the province, so who is that person?"
