Jagged City - Chapter 190 Seven Interests

"That's right. Philosophy can penetrate the essence from the phenomenon. Two Ph.Ds in Economics and one Ph.D. in Philosophy, the company will not be able to develop if it wants to!" Madam Deng also said. ▃ ( v?v )▃

"There is still a certain distance between knowledge and reality. We are also slowly exploring. The group company is mainly engaged in catering, and will gradually diversify in the future. Our goal is to enter China's top [-] group companies within ten years." Zhu Yueting's eyes are burning. , full of confidence.

Xiao Huating said: "The fixed assets of China's top 800 companies are around [-] billion. Your company's goal is not low. If you say that you will reach this goal in three to two years, I definitely don't believe it. However, in ten years, many miracles may be created. The company may go further. I am looking forward to this day."

Wang Zhengdao also said: "I heard that the in-laws group is building the largest welfare home in China, and the first phase investment has reached 7000 million. "

"Taking from the people and using them for the people, this approach is not only suitable for the government, but also the concept of businessmen who pay attention to social benefits. As businessmen, we must be Chinese businessmen and businessmen who love the people. When people have enough money, they often seek social benefits. Status and reputation, we also have the same idea, but what we think more is to promote the development of society while developing ourselves. This approach was not obvious at the beginning of the business. With the continuous development of the group, this concept will It will be thoroughly implemented!" Lin Zhiyuan talked eloquently, and several in-laws nodded frequently.

Mrs. Deng watched Lin Zhiyuan and Zhu Yueting's previous resistance to businessmen gradually disappear. Before, Mrs. Deng always believed that businessmen valued profits and were the most indifferent group of people, but now her thoughts have changed. After listening to what Lin Zhiyuan said, I also felt admiration for these two couples.Not only can being an official benefit one party, but also being a businessman can make more contributions to society.

"Maybe it's a bit far away now. After the development of the group in the future, we will invest heavily in education. Now China's education is somewhat out of touch with social development. Vocational education lags far behind developed countries. Many college graduates do not have any job advantages at all. On the contrary, they are older, and are not as good as some technical secondary school students with professional skills. They face unemployment at the same time after graduation, which is also a reality of Chinese education, which makes some people think that studying is useless—”

Half an hour later, Lin Tao and Xiao Xiao accompanied Lin Zhiyuan and his wife to dinner.

The expressions of the six people sitting on the sofa showed more respect. In the past, Xiao Huating and his wife could only be polite to Lin Tao's father on the surface, but now they respect from the bottom of their hearts.

Deng Shanshan said: "I feel that Lin Tao's father and mother are very fashionable, like a real international businessman, very stylish."

"The in-laws have ideals and abilities, and the company's development is based on society. I think their company can be invincible with these three points. And many of their ideas are consistent with the direction of our government's pursuit of social development. Such a company Any government would support it, and the outlook for the company is positive."

"Zhengdao is right. I used to worry about whether the company's development would affect Lin Tao's development. It seems that my thoughts are superfluous. My in-laws must have thought ahead of us in this regard. By the way, Xiao Xiao said, tomorrow at noon Going to eat at their newly opened fast food restaurant, we just took the opportunity to find out. Xiao Xiao boasted that their business is full of 8000 seats on weekends. I don’t know if it’s true or not! Think about the scene of more than [-] people eating together. It's really spectacular!" Xiao Huating laughed.

That night, Mrs. Deng, Lin Tao's two mother-in-laws, and a young mother were playing mahjong. Xiao Xiao and Deng Shanshan were serving on the side, while the four older men went to the study to chat. Lin Tao was mainly asking for advice on official matters. After a while, he went upstairs to tease his grandchildren. The two in-laws and Lin Tao were both officials. With him present, the two Qin family couldn't help letting go of precepts and deeds, so Lin Zhiyuan left voluntarily.

Lin Zhiyuan sat on the edge of the two cradles, watched the two cute little guys fall asleep soundly, and murmured to himself: "Honey, Xiaotao is married, we have grandchildren, not only the company is booming, but Xiaotao has also become a The mayor, do you already know where you are? Are you there to protect our family? My wife, I am married again now, and I have found a young mother for Lin Tao. I wonder if you will blame me? Yue Ting Treat me very well, I love her very much, and my son and daughter-in-law also respect Yueting very much, but I will never forget my love for you until I die. If one day Yueting and I get old, I will go over there to find you, you Will you drive us out? I think it’s greedy to have the two of you in heaven! After a while, Xiaotao and his daughter-in-law will bring their grandchildren to see you. Did you know that your granddaughter looks very similar to your childhood photos? , I don’t know if it’s because you are reluctant to part with Xiaotao. You were Xiaotao’s mother in your previous life, and this time you’re Xiaotao’s daughter. Wife, Yueting and I are married, and I hope to receive your blessing. My son has grown up, no You need to worry about my father, he is a very sensible child, he is very good to me, you are also very happy. Don't worry, I will take good care of mom and dad. You can live happily over there!"

Zhu Yueting was standing at the door. When he saw Lin Zhiyuan going up, he quickly asked Xiao Xiao to play for him. Although she was a stepmother, she still had to show concern for Xiao Xiao's child, so she followed her upstairs, standing on the empty At the closed door, Zhu Yueting heard her husband Lin Zhiyuan talking to himself. Lin Zhiyuan's love for his late wife and his love for himself, listening to this big man's narration, she couldn't help her nose sore. She felt very happy at the moment, although the family Some people disagree with her marrying a man who is 15 years older than herself, but Zhu Yueting has identified Lin Zhiyuan.Lin Zhiyuan is humorous, knowledgeable, has the same ideals and ambitions as himself, and is very considerate to himself.Although she is 50 years old, her appearance and body are much stronger than that of a 40-year-old man. Standing with her, there is no big age difference. Zhu Yueting is very satisfied. Listening to Lin Zhiyuan's behind the scenes, Zhu Yueting feels Lin Zhiyuan even more The man she was meant to be.Zhu Yueting listened for a while, took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and quietly went downstairs, he didn't want to disturb Lin Zhiyuan's confession to his dead wife.

At eight o'clock the next morning, the secretary Fang Liang called and said that the student who suffered from food poisoning was in stable condition and was no longer in danger. Lin Tao was finally relieved and called Deputy Mayor Liu Baoheng and Director Gao of the Education Bureau. Do a good job in dealing with the aftermath, so that the parents of the students cannot be dissatisfied.In addition, Che Liguo was urged to immediately prepare to hold a city-wide health and safety meeting, and draft inspection documents for all government agencies, private enterprises, hotels and restaurants, and food safety in the city.At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Tao will return to Xiliang to attend the health and safety meeting.

09:30 am:

Lin Tao, his father and two father-in-laws went to visit Zhao Guangzu. In fact, Zhao Guangzu knew that Lin Tao's father-in-law was here yesterday, but he didn't know that Mrs. Deng was also there.Zhao Sifang originally wanted to take a look, but he stopped him. After all, Lao Zhao has his own reserve. He is higher than them in terms of rank and older than them in terms of age. Although he has a future ahead of him, he can't take the initiative to post it. .When Lin Tao called last night and told him that his father and two father-in-laws were going to visit him, he was very happy.Therefore, when Lin Tao and others came by car, they had already seen Zhao Guangzu's family at the door to greet them.

Lin Tao's three elders came to express an attitude, that is, to express their gratitude to Zhao Guangzu for taking care of Lin Tao.These few people are all exquisite characters, and they know what they want to express without saying it explicitly. Apart from thanking them, they also have the meaning of making friends.Zhao Guangzu was very happy, and brought out his humor to the fullest. He was the biggest here, and he was easy to let go. Soon the living room of Zhao's house was full of cheerful laughter.

Zhao Sifang, Lin Tao and other juniors are sitting on the other side of the living room, not participating in the conversation of the elders, which is polite.Zhao Sifang said: "Brother, you are not interesting enough. If I know how many uncles are coming, I have to go to the airport with you to meet them!"

"After four rounds, my father arrived at night, and I picked up Xiao Xiao's godfather and godmother, and hurried back to Xiliang. More than 60 students in a private high school suffered from food poisoning. I was afraid that it would be spoiled if it continued to be stored, so I put some more, and I got food poisoning, but I was shocked. Four of them were particularly serious and almost caused death. If I hadn’t rushed back in time, things would have happened. , Fortunately, they are all out of danger, otherwise, I would not be here today, and I have to go back to Xiliang to stay."

"And this! It's not on the news today, it seems that the secrecy measures are well done!"

"This is not a glorious thing. It has been reported to the province. It is estimated that Minister Bi helped to suppress it. Now that the situation has stabilized, it is estimated that there will be an interview."

"The principal of that private school is probably out of luck." Zhao Sifang laughed.

"First of all, a fine is unavoidable. In addition, whether it is criminal responsibility or not, the court has the final say. The judiciary has already intervened in the investigation and must be severely punished. Otherwise, these people don't have a long memory and they only care about making money. How can we run education well? By the way, wait Next, let's go to the fast food restaurant to eat together, and then we will go together." Lin Tao said.

"How can I do that? I've already reserved a seat at the Shangri-La Hotel. When the three uncles come, I must do my best as a landlord. How can I eat at a fast food restaurant?" Zhao Sifang said with his eyes wide open.

"Yes, Lin Tao, you can't do it too casually just because it's your father-in-law and your father. You don't have enough respect. Be careful that your father-in-law gives you small shoes to wear." Xiang Xiaofen said.

"Really, I really didn't think much about it. Why do I think the family is so polite? It seems that I am too real, ha ha." Lin Tao laughed.

"It's not true, you are being stingy. By the way, why didn't Xiao Xiao come, and didn't your mother-in-law come?" Xiang Xiaofen asked.

"They're all here, and there are five other women at home. If you come together, you won't even be able to sit on the sofa." Lin Tao laughed.

"Why six?" Zhao Sifang said looking at his fingers.

"Two mothers-in-law, my little mother, Xiao Xiao, and Xiao Xiao's aunt and cousin are also here."

"Which aunt?" Xiang Xiaofen asked.

"Deputy Prime Minister Deng's wife, they are family friends with Xiao Xiao's family. You don't know that yesterday when my father was not here, I was facing three mothers-in-law at the dinner table. The pressure was overwhelming, and it made me restless."

Zhao Sifang and his wife felt that Lin Tao's words were funny, and they couldn't help saying: "You are being cheap and acting like a good boy, two ministerial old Taishan, people don't know how envious they are, the uncle of the prime minister and the wife and aunt of the prime minister are even more enviable! You can't entertain casually, I've never seen you like this, you actually entertain such an important person in a fast food restaurant, really, I'll make a call to adjust the table."

Seeing Zhao Sifang being so solemn, Lin Tao felt that he seemed a little casual, and he really didn't think about it that much.

"Wait, how about I ask Governor Song to see if he is free, anyway, you are not short of entertaining anyone."

"How about calling Zhao Jinlin and his three fathers?" Zhao Sifang said.

Lin Tao said: "This is not very good, it seems that the Northwest Standing Committee is held."

"What's the matter? Why don't you ask your aunt what she means? I don't think your two father-in-laws will mind too much. After all, there is no harm in communicating with officials at the same level." Zhao Sifang said with a smile.

"Then let me ask first, don't call Zhao Jinlin and the others!" Lin Tao hurriedly called home.

Xiao Xiao took it.

Holding the phone, Xiao Xiao asked, "Auntie, Lin Tao said that Commander Zhao was entertaining guests at the Shangri-La Hotel at noon. Lin Tao wanted to invite some provincial leaders, and asked if you agreed."

"Are those leaders familiar with Lin Tao?" Mrs. Deng asked.

"I'm not very familiar with them. Their sons call me sister, and they are very attached to Lin Tao and me." Xiao Xiao said triumphantly, clutching the microphone.

"Hey, you're already a big sister. There really are no tigers and monkeys to dominate the mountains!" Deng Shanshan said immediately.

"Hahaha, you're a tigress, can't you? I didn't expect Shanshan to be quite self-aware, giggling—" Xiao Xiao got a bargain now, and immediately burst out laughing.

"Smelly girl, you are the tigress!" Deng Shanshan flew a cushion over and smashed it on Xiao Xiao's head.

"Oh! Ha!" Xiao Xiao kicked, and with a bang, the cushion flew back quickly, and this kick broke the cushion, the duck down was scattered, and the four women on the sofa were covered with hair and face. .Xiao Xiao was a little silly, except for the little mother Zhu Yueting and the godmother Mrs. Wang, the other three women chased Xiao Xiao with a roar.

Xiao Xiao yelled, threw the phone away and ran away.

"Damn girl, you stop—"

"I really didn't mean it, it was Shanshan who provoked me, you two should hit Shanshan first—"

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Some men say that three women together are equivalent to five hundred ducks squawking. I used to disdain it, but now it seems that it is even worse!"

Zhu Yueting was also amused by Mrs. Wang, it was really ridiculous to see three women chasing and beating Xiao Xiao, the two aunts also laughed and hurried over to clean up.I was still thinking about it, the Prime Minister's wife and the governor's wife are similar to us, and they are not in shape when they are happy!Mrs. Deng and Mrs. Xiao never imagined that they would be despised by two aunts who took their children to cook at this moment.

"Little Mom, save me!" Xiao Xiao jumped over the sofa and hid behind Zhu Yueting.

The phone was still ringing, and Lin Tao kept saying "Hey, hey" on the other end. When he heard Xiao Xiao screaming, he thought something had happened. Later, when he heard laughter, beating and scolding, he realized that the family was in chaos. A few people and women are at home, and they really want to pierce the roof of the house.

"Let's call. I'll call Governor Zhao to ask about it. Let's set it at 11:10. We will start at 30:[-] and go to the fast food restaurant first, and then go to the hotel."

"Okay, let me ask first, if the fathers of those boys are at home, and then you invite them." Zhao Sifang called the three of them.

Zhao Jinlin was the first to answer the phone, and he was dumbfounded when he heard it. He patted his thigh and said, "My father is flying to Beijing at [-] o'clock this morning. Damn, why didn't you notify me in advance? Knowing this, my father will fly to Beijing this afternoon." The same goes for going.”

"Damn, who are you blaming? It was decided on a temporary basis. By the way, Lin Tao's father-in-law has to go back here for one night after the meeting. We can meet again at that time. Let's do it first. I'll ask Ma Zhantao and Hong Lili's father later." Not at home." Zhao Sifang put down the phone, told Lin Tao that Zhao Ziming, executive vice governor, had gone to Beijing, and then called Hong Quanli and Ma Zhantao.Ma Zhantao and his son went to Guhe County and couldn't make it back.Hong Lili's father is at home.

Lin Tao had a good idea, after all, he had met Hong Lili's father, Hong Lipeng.Lin Tao called Hong Quanli's cell phone.

"Uncle Hong? I'm Lin Tao!"

"it's me."

"My father, my father-in-law Xiao Huating, Xiao Xiao's godfather Wang Zhengdao came to my house, and Xiao Xiao's aunt Mrs. Deng also came. Sifang and I treated guests on the eighth floor of Shangri-La at 11:30 noon. It was a family banquet, and Commander Zhao and his wife also attended , I don’t know if you and your aunt have time, and I also want to invite Governor Song to come over, I haven’t called yet, I know you are all big leaders, and I’m afraid you won’t have time—” Lin Tao said this because he was afraid that Hong Lipeng would be jealous of Governor Song Long, so take a breath in advance.

"Okay, I want to see your father and your old Taishan, and see what kind of people have raised such outstanding children. My wife is not in good health, so I can go by myself." Hong Lipeng said with a smile.

"Well, I'll visit my aunt another day. We'll be waiting for you in Shangri-La. We will do our best to come here before you. We want to serve the elders well."

"Okay, I'll definitely go on time." Hong Lipeng learned through his son that Xiao Xiao's uncle is Vice Premier Deng, so Mrs. Deng is naturally the wife of Vice Premier Deng. It's okay to make a familiar face and exchange feelings. Lin Tao, Xiao Huating and Wang Zhengdao is a vice-ministerial-level official. He has heard that Wang Zhengdao is going to be the Governor of Northern Liaoning Province. He is naturally very happy to see these two colleagues.As for Lin Tao's father, Hong Lipeng ignored it a little bit.After all, an official and a business have different goals, and at least respect is necessary, but Hong Lipeng is more enthusiastic about the other three.

Lin Tao called Governor Song Chunrong again.

"Excuse me, Governor Song, I'm Xiliang Xiaolin."

"Oh, Lin Tao! What's the matter?" Governor Song said politely, at the moment he was preparing to attend the wedding of a friend's child.

"My father, my father-in-law Xiao Huating, Xiao Xiao's godfather Wang Zhengdao and his wife are in the northwest, and I would like to treat you to dinner. Commander Zhao and his wife are also going. We will be at the Shangri-La Hotel at 11:30. Can you spare some time?"

"11:30? Very good, the time can be staggered, I'm going to attend a friend's child's wedding, I will definitely be there before 11:30." Song Chunrong put down the phone, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said to himself Well, Lin Tao's father-in-law and godfather came to the Northwest ahead of time to take advantage of the meeting in Beijing. This is to give Lin Tao momentum, so it's good if I go to meet them.

"What? Is there a banquet at 11:30?" Song Chunrong's wife said.

"It's two colleagues from other provinces. If you don't want to go, you can come back first after the wedding banquet." Song Chunrong said.

"Colleague? Are you also the governor? Are there any female relatives?" Mrs. Song came out wearing a cheongsam with a camel hair shawl over it.Mrs. Song is about 40 years old, nearly 15 years younger than Governor Song. She was the second wife Song Chunrong married when he was 45 years old. The first wife died 16 years ago. Secretary to the mayor.The couple have lived together for ten years, and they have a very good relationship. Although they have never had children, they are very affectionate. Mrs. Song is somewhat powerful and vain, but this small flaw has not affected the relationship between the two of them. It's a small interest, and Mrs. Song treats Governor Song's ex-wife's son very well, treating her as her own.Song Chunrong is very grateful to his wife for this.Therefore, I am accustomed to my wife's little vanity. When my wife asked if she was the governor, I couldn't help laughing and said, "You, if you are not the governor, you won't go? Those two are deputy ministerial cadres, and one will be elected as the governor soon." They’ve grown up, they’re all very popular, they’re all four or five years younger than me, and they’re promising politically. How about it? Will you go? By the way, Commander Zhao and his wife will also go.”

"Cut, the old man and the old lady are going too, that old lady Zhao is very airy! By the way, are you two with the female relatives?" Mrs. Song turned her body around, revealing her smooth back. Although she is 43 years old, her skin It is very delicate, well maintained, and the buttocks are wrapped in cheongsam very upright. This is one of the reasons why Song Chunrong loves his wife so much.Song Chunrong helped his wife zip up and touched her buttocks.

"I hate it!" His wife knocked off Song Chunrong's sneak attacking hand.

Song Chunrong smiled and said, "I never get tired of touching your butt. It's been ten years, and I like it more and more. If you don't touch your butt every night, you won't be able to sleep."

"Nicky—by the way, you haven't said whether they have female relatives or not?" Mrs. Song lightly pecked her husband's face.

Song Chunrong touched the kissed place on his face and said with a smile: "It seems that they all brought their female relatives here, why don't you go too, make sure to compare them all and give me a long face."

"Tch, you use me as a vase. Mrs. Zhao is the same age as my mother. Do I still need to compare with her? Although she is well maintained, she looks a generation behind. By the way, what are they doing?" Is it an investigation?" Mrs. Song looked in the mirror and took two steps.

"It's not an inspection, it's to give the son-in-law a boost!" Governor Song laughed.

"Son-in-law? Are you also engaged in politics in our northwest? Is it the magistrate of which county? I haven't heard you say it!" Mrs. Song twisted her body and looked left and right in the mirror. As the governor's wife, she didn't want When others see a little blemish, it is not only their own face, but also the face of their husband.

"It's not the county magistrate, it's the mayor, or Lin Tao, the newly appointed mayor of Xiliang."

"Ah, Lin Tao, it is the 28-year-old Major General Lin Tao who was elected unanimously by [-] votes from your Standing Committee!" Mrs. Song turned around and said.

Song Chunrong said: "How do you know the Northwest cadres better than I do!"

"What should I say? It's not the governor's wife. Others know about it. Of course I know more about it. I heard that his wife is a beautiful woman. The biggest fast food restaurant on Chang'an Avenue is opened by Lin Tao's wife. The business is very good. It’s hot, I secretly went to taste it two days ago, it’s delicious, and the 99 yuan abalone rice is even better than a big restaurant. What you ate that night was packed.”

"Did I say that, I thought your craftsmanship has improved again! I'll take a look someday when I have time. I saw that this fast food restaurant has been advertised in the newspaper for a long time, and I think it's good to see the photos."

"Oh, so you, the governor, also care about food. I thought you only cared about politics?"

"This is people's livelihood. Of course I have to care about it. People's clothing, food, housing and transportation are all things I care about. Let's go, let's go early, and we have to go to Shangri-La before 11:30 to attend the banquet invited by Lin Tao."

In the villa of the No. 53 Municipal Party Committee Courtyard in Northwest City, Hong Lipeng, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, was massaging his wife's body.His wife is 33 years old, the same age as him, the two had worked together as educated youths, and fell in love during the difficult years. When they returned to the city, the wedding was held under the portrait of **.The two have been together for [-] years through ups and downs, from a young love to a deep family relationship.My wife has always had rheumatoid disease, and it got worse the year before last, so I had to retire from work.The rheumatic pain is even worse when it is windy and rainy, and it is a bit difficult to walk, and the fingers and toes are now deformed.Sometimes his body would be stiff and numb, and Hong Lipeng would give his wife a massage when he had time.Just now, when I was giving my wife a massage, I landed on Lin Tao's phone.

"Hey, I won't be able to accompany you to social occasions these two years. Or, let Shili help you find a beautiful girl from the song and dance troupe to go with you."

"Hehe, in my eyes, you are always the prettiest, how can those beautiful girls have such charm as you." Hong Lipeng was not at all interested in his wife's jokes.

"It's just like chicken feet, and it's still charming. Just fool me, an old lady!" Although Mrs. Hong is sick, she just looks thin and not old at all. She is indeed very attractive as Hong Lipeng said.

Hong Lipeng held this slightly bent finger and said with a scrub, it was this hand that stretched all its strength to fulfill my filial piety and send my parents away. Do you know what my mother said before leaving?

"What are you talking about?" Mrs. Hong enjoyed the warmth brought by her husband's wide palms, tilting her head to look at her husband with gray temples.

"My mother said, you daughter-in-law is a hundred times stronger than me, and more like a daughter-in-law than my sister. If one day I am sorry for you, my mother and my father will crawl out of the coffin and strangle me to death in the middle of the night!" Hong Lipeng laughed. said.

"Ah, it's scary, don't talk nonsense." Mrs. Hong did take care of Hong Lipeng's parents in every possible way, but the two old people also loved the eldest daughter-in-law very much and treated her as their own. Even the second son and daughter said that the two elders were partial This sister-in-law.

"You know, I have some insomnia. It's all because of my mother's scare. I dare not sleep in the middle of the night."

"Feelings, you are a guilty conscience, did you raise a second wife and third wife outside behind my back, and you made a lot of little mothers for your strength?"

"I don't have that energy, I'm a bit powerless to serve you alone!" Hong Lipeng smiled as he stroked the boss's hand.

"Okay, you have more energy than energy, so if you are energetic, you want to find one?" Mrs. Hong said fiercely with her eyes wide open.

"I had a little idea, but I was scared back when you stared at me. Anyone who knows me knows that I am afraid of guilt!"

"You're unlucky, whoever made you fall in love with me, a tigress, you just accept your fate in this life. But I think that Liu Min, run by the municipal committee, is pretty good. He is 35 and six years old and just divorced. I don't mind if you have some ideas." , I think she seems to be quite interested in you." Madam Hong teased.

"Didn't you just give me a wink when I came to see you yesterday? But it's much worse than when you were young. Didn't I obediently follow you into the grove when you gave me a wink?"

"Virtue, you old bastard. Did you touch someone's ass yesterday when I wasn't paying attention? Or she twisted on the stool as soon as you came over." Madam Hong said tentatively.

"Pull it down, she has hemorrhoids, her ass is itchy——haha"

"Ha ha--"

The old couple teased each other when they had nothing to do, and took it as a kind of fun. If their son Hong Quanli heard it, he would laugh out loud.
