Chapter 1353
After putting down the phone, Guoguo also went to the refrigerator to get a bottle of water for himself, but Xiaolong saw Guoguo and shook his head helplessly. In his words, he went to molested the team leader Lin again. , you don’t have to look like this even if you’re free!If you have this spare time, it's better to practice hard. On this point, Xiaolong's performance is rather boring, while Guoguo's performance is a little more obvious.
The next morning, Shen Lang was flying the eagles!Guoguo also walked over, holding a puppy in her arms, "Third Uncle, I called that girl last night, judging from the current situation, her response was a little slow, But now there is still time, if Grandpa Zhong leaves, they still haven't come to their senses, how should we deal with this matter? It's a bit difficult! We think too highly of them."
Shen Lang turned his head and took a look, "You are responsible for solving the things you caused by yourself, don't think about me wiping your ass, I don't bother with such crap, your grandfather Zhong Ziqi is at most here During the two days he stayed at home, he was relatively busy when he was old. Although he looked very chic from the TV, he knew it by himself, just like your father. You can ask him, in a year, Is there a real rest time of [-] days? This is more to say."
Guoguo also tilted her head, and kept stroking the puppy in her arms. The two puppies were divided between him and Xiaolong, and even the two had already made plans. The dog was not taken inside the house, it was put directly at the elder brother's place, and no one saw it. You must know that those brats in the house saw it, and pointed at their eyesight, these two puppies Just don't try to keep it.
"Third uncle, why do I think there is something in your words?" Guoguo also stared at his third uncle with wide eyes, and Xiaolong also came over at this time and stood beside him, " Judging from your boy's temperament, you are not suitable to follow your father's path. Your personality is a bit too arrogant. In this regard, you are not quite like your father, and you are not special with your sister-in-law. Imagine, it has a little bit of great-grandfather meaning."
After Guoguo heard this, she didn't feel any dissatisfaction. On the contrary, the expression on her face finally relaxed, "Third Uncle, you really almost scared me out of me! But really Speaking of which, I really don't have much interest in my father's career, it's too tiring, I think third uncle, you are our goal!"
Hearing what Guoguo said, Shen Lang laughed a bit, what do you say when you smile?There are some other meanings, "You have set such a goal for yourself, it doesn't matter whether it is high or not, but you should also see that it seems easy to walk one way, but sometimes you will It's very tiring, and you won't even be understood and misunderstood, I hope you can prepare for this, otherwise give up now!"
"Little Snake, what do you think Uncle San meant by that?" Xiaolong looked at Uncle San who had already turned around and said in a low voice, "I think it's very likely that Uncle Hao is here! I didn't see Did the third uncle feel a little bit depressed after he came here? It’s probably because of this! When the third uncle came here, he didn’t look like this. Just say it."
Seeing Xiaolong looking at her teasingly, Guoguo also stared back. In fact, she also knew what was going on in her heart. Men are afraid of entering the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man!At this time, the third uncle may have some sighs in his heart. In fact, he and Xiaolong have some feelings about this situation, but who would have thought that Uncle Hao would enter this business?
You must know that Uncle Hao’s career is completely different from that of the so-called secret agent. To use an old saying in this profession, if you practice this profession, there is a good chance that you will not end well. This statement is definitely not a joke. , but the factual situation, ancient and modern, China and foreign countries, one counts as one, basically it is such a situation, and it can be said that there are very few people who can get a satisfactory result in the end.
Those who dare to do this basically have no one who can be trusted. There is only one word in their hearts, and that is loyalty, and this kind of loyalty is only for their own country.Apart from that, basically everything else can be given up. This kind of giving up includes one's own birth, family, relationship, etc. This is also the reason why the third uncle feels a little sad now!
"Actually speaking, Uncle Hao is forced to do so. From his point of view, he can only doubt everyone. No matter whether Uncle San is a former leader or not, he must stick to his principles. Although Uncle Hao believes in Uncle Third to a certain extent, this is not as simple as gambling, you can have a chance to start over." The two little guys also sighed in the courtyard.
At the same time, Lin Le also came to the meeting room with two big dark circles under his eyes. Last night, he basically didn't fall asleep. He was always thinking about this aspect. What does that hint mean? Why can't I always guess it?In the midst of the mist, the light came on, and when he saw himself in the mirror, Lin Le was also quite frightened. Is this still himself?
Even applying make-up has no effect, so Lin Le can only go to the conference room with two panda eyes. Fortunately, most of the city bureaus are dominated by men, and everyone doesn't care much about it. , but everyone has noticed that Lin Le's mental state is a bit poor, but fortunately, the tasks she performs are not very heavy, why not let her stay in the city bureau?I'm afraid only a fool would ask this question.
Now the Municipal Bureau can't wait to use one employee as two. There is really no way to mobilize them. Some departments have even recruited documents. This is not entirely because of the superior leaders. , You must know that the city bureau was already a little busy before, and it was even more so after the superior leaders came.
The leaders of the Municipal Bureau also know that today is probably the most critical day, and the superiors will arrive today, so at this time, they don't care whether Lin Le has not rested, and at this time Lin Le is also on the horse, ready to go The need for preparation work, of course, Lin Le's work is relatively easy today, sitting in the car and patrolling back and forth, because there are other people in the car, so Lin Le can take this opportunity to take a rest.
As for Shen Lang, who was staying in the villa, he also knew very well what the purpose of Uncle Zhong Ziqi's coming here this time was. Although they had met each other before, no one said anything about it. , Shen Lang himself can't say it, and Zhong Ziqi can't say it either, but everyone understands it quite well in their hearts.
The military reform this time is already in a state of being ready to go, but Shen Lang, the leader, suddenly slipped away during this period of time. It may be due to some other circumstances, but there are certain factors in it. The vibration of some people is also relatively large. Of course, although some people also come out and leave Zhang Butcher, do they have to eat hairy pigs?But many people don't have much confidence in their hearts.
In the past, Shen Lang was forced to stand up, but what about this time?Everyone's meaning is relatively clear. It doesn't matter whether Shen Lang stands up or not, but at least there must be an attitude expression in this respect. Of course, this attitude expression does not refer to support or not support. This question is beyond doubt of.
But in the first meeting, Shen Lang didn't talk about this issue, and Zhong Ziqi didn't talk about this issue either. Both of them avoided this topic, but both of them were concerned about it in their hearts. It is very clear that Shen Lang will not say nothing, and Zhong Ziqi has to go back without any results. Although to him, this matter is nothing more than beating rabbits, but there must be One result, that is, the rabbit must be hit.
Regarding this matter, Shen Lang has already thought it over clearly. It is enough to have an explanation before Uncle Zhong goes back. It is not good if the time is too early, and it is not good if the time is too late. It is necessary to pinpoint this time point before it can be done. .Judging from what I know now, Uncle Zhong still has at least two or three days to go back, so for me, the time is still very abundant, and he still has a very big advantage. <Although Shen Lang was a little sad about what happened, how should I say it?Sad, but this is not the main reason for creating myself now, it can only be said that there is some relationship.Regarding Hao Chunlai's choice of this path, I can't say whether I agree or disagree, but if I want to keep him safe, there shouldn't be too many problems. I'm afraid this is the only thing I can do.
The so-called protection of him does not mean that he can be guaranteed to be safe all the time. This is impossible. Neither he nor the villa is a nanny. It is more accurate to provide necessary help under possible conditions. It is said that the villa can provide a better guarantee for Hao Chunlai's future, why should he do this?At this moment, Shen Lang no longer needs a lot of money to buy horse bones, he just doesn't want some things to happen in front of him, that's all. <Whether you want to know your own mind or not, you don’t need to think too much about it, because it’s two different things at the root. "Third Uncle, there is some news from the bank, but the actions of the provincial department seem to have gone too far. I don't know if it was intentional or because I was too eager!"
"It's just as expected!" Shen Lang said with some sighs, "But I admire the courage of some people. I personally reported this matter in front of that Secretary Li. Under the current situation Next, according to 1ri, there are problems in this area. In fact, it is not easy to explain all aspects. It seems that the foundation of the bank is relatively deep! Otherwise, how could such problems arise?"
Obviously, Shen Lang also expressed his dissatisfaction at this time, but he himself is very clear that the bank also has considerable rights in certain aspects, and does not have much monitoring power, so such a situation occurred It's acceptable.Because I have also done things in these two industries, I also have my own unique understanding of some of them.
But understanding is understanding, it doesn't mean that Shen Lang will accept such a result.Of course, at this moment, Shen Lang was not going to say anything. You must know that Na Yao was present not only as simple as himself and Uncle Zhong, but also two other people!The two of them didn't express anything, why should I be in a hurry now!
There was nothing wrong with Shen Lang's prediction. After learning about the actions of the provincial department, the anger in the hearts of these two great gods was also very intense. This matter is not just a matter of their own concern, but Shen Lang is behind it This great god was watching covetously from the side, and judging from what he learned, this Colonel Shen was an expert among the experts in this respect, but he didn't reveal much.
But now the two people don't have much free time. After all, they still have other jobs. The previous project also took up a lot of their time and energy, and they have been with Secretary Zhong for the past two days. Now they can only hope that Senior Colonel Shen Lang and Director Shen can give them a certain amount of time, and don't immediately erupt this conflict. After Secretary Zhong leaves, they will immediately start to rectify this problem.
At the time of Sanyao, Zhong Ziqi was also preparing to leave. When Zhong Ziqi was chatting with a few people in the room, his secretary also walked in suddenly at this time. When seeing this scene, everyone was shocked. They all shut up, they knew very well that if it wasn't for some important time, the secretary would not choose to come in during this time period. Of course, this has a lot to do with everyone's private chat now.
When Zhong Ziqi heard that Shen Lang came to the door in person, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he nodded immediately. After the meeting was over, he also called Shen Lang over. It wasn't very long, it was only half an hour, and then Shen Lang also left here, and he didn't intend to sit down and chat at all.There are many reasons for not doing this. If you want to chat, there are plenty of opportunities. What's more, Shen Lang can also see the expression on Uncle Zhong's face, which is very tired, and he doesn't want to disturb his rest.
However, just as Shen Lang came out from here, he saw the two big secretaries waiting there at this time. Shen Lang also took two steps quickly, and then stretched out his hands, and they held each other tightly. .From Shen Lang's point of view, letting these two wait for him, the spectrum is a bit too big. You must know that in the official career, there are fewer thorns, which will not do any good for him, not to mention that these two are also in the frontier. Lord of the officials!Absolutely not to be underestimated.
And what Shen Lang said gave the two big bosses a good step down. If other people are ordinary people, let alone waiting in person, even seeing each other is a matter of two talking, but this The two bosses still have a lot of understanding of Shen Lang's identity. The more they know, the more frightened they feel. After all, neither of them is given for nothing, but Shen Lang feels very good about giving the two people now. Director Shen must not take it lightly.
The three people also found a small room, which was Shen Lang's intention. Neither of the two big secretaries asked about the reason, but it could be seen that Director Shen didn't want to see him at this time. There were so many people involved that even Secretary Zhong didn't know where this Director Shen was after he came, which was evident.
The meaning expressed by the two big secretaries is very obvious. The work of these two days is very busy, so some aspects have been delayed. Shen Lang didn't have much opinion on this, but said with a smile, "I just I just came down to relax, and the time I lived here has caused everyone a lot of trouble, and I feel quite sorry psychologically."
Shen Lang's purpose for saying this is quite clear. I still need to stay here for a while. How you want to do it is your own business. At this moment, I will not go back with Uncle Zhong. As for this Is it the result of the handling of this matter?You can also ignore me, I'm not the investigation team sent by the above, although I'm a little angry, but I don't have the right to do so.
Although Shen Lang said so, the two big secretaries in front of him would not just listen to what Shen Lang said. Shen Lang didn't pay much attention to this matter. This may be true, but to be honest, he has no opinion. is unlikely.Thinking of this matter, the two big secretaries also felt a little angry, but it had nothing to do with Shen Lang, mainly because the guys below were a little too outrageous.
Some things are inconvenient for them to say directly, but even in this way, you can't handle things to such an extent!They know that Ma Si is now under their control, and the materials are also sorted out quite clearly. Under the current situation, some people still want to jump a few times. It seems that they really want to die!Now this time is not quietly waiting, just wait and see!
The next morning, Shen Lang was flying the eagles!Guoguo also walked over, holding a puppy in her arms, "Third Uncle, I called that girl last night, judging from the current situation, her response was a little slow, But now there is still time, if Grandpa Zhong leaves, they still haven't come to their senses, how should we deal with this matter?

Guoguo also tilted her head, and kept stroking the puppy in her arms. The two puppies were divided between him and Xiaolong, and even the two had already made plans. The dog was not taken inside the house, it was put directly at the elder brother's place, and no one saw it. You must know that those brats in the house saw it, and pointed at their eyesight, these two puppies Just don't try to keep it.
"Third uncle, why do I think there is something in your words?"
