Big man

Qingnan—the county has many mountains, so many.

The commercial vehicles come all the way south, almost always wandering in the mountains. The winding roads circle after circle, and there are cliffs and abysses one meter away. If you occasionally look out the window, people who are afraid of heights may feel their heart tightening immediately. I feel sick all over.

The driver of the commercial vehicle was used to driving on mountain roads, and after a few hours, he was a little terrified and overwhelmed.

On the other hand, the two young passengers were very calm, keeping their eyes closed in the car and resting their minds. They hardly said a word along the way, and almost made the driver sick.Just seeing that the male passenger's face was pale and sickly, the driver couldn't take the initiative to disturb his rest.

Now that he was sick, he didn't know what to do in the backcountry of Qingnan, where he drove hundreds of miles of mountain roads?

After Xiao Fan and Xin Lin left Lijiatun, they rushed to Liaobei Yindu Airport the next day and flew directly to the mountain city.After getting off the plane in Shancheng, I rested for one night, rented a commercial vehicle the next day, and rushed to Qingnan County.

Qingnan is located in the southeast of the mountain city. It is an ethnic autonomous county, bordering Yidong, and more than 100 kilometers away is Qingyuan City.

Knowing that this trip is far away, most of the journey is on mountain roads, so I rented a commercial vehicle.Commercial vehicles are spacious, and the ride comfort is far stronger than that of small-sized taxis.Xin Lin was not allowed to drive either, and even rented the driver together.

The two of them rested in the car to refresh their spirits.

We set off early in the morning and finally arrived at Qingnan County after two o'clock in the afternoon.

Although Qingnan is located in a remote area with inconvenient transportation, it is the only big town within a radius of tens of miles.It was just after the bumper harvest, and the autumn air was crisp, and travel was convenient. Many nearby villagers came to the county town to "go to the market".

According to the request, the driver sent the two silent guests with the big black cat to Qingnan-County Chengguan Town Farmer's Market Administration for Industry and Commerce.This large farmer's market was built two years ago, led by Qingnan-County Industry and Commerce Bureau.The county industrial and commercial bureau and the Chengguan town industrial and commercial office both work in the big market, and above the fourth floor is the dormitory for the cadres and workers of the industrial and commercial bureau.

Xiao Fan and Xin Lin came here to find a cadre named Zhou Qingnan.

According to the data, Zhou Qingnan is the deputy director of the Qingnan County Chengguan Town Industrial and Commercial Management Office, but this is not the reason why Xiao Fan traveled all the way to this valley to find him.Xiao Fan wanted to find him because he had another title——No.3 in the [-]nd Shancheng City Fishing Competition.

Xiao Fan needs an extremely good fishing expert to help him catch a "Jade Jiao".

Refining the "Dan of the Great Return of the Universe" requires fresh jade dragon brains to be used as medicine.

According to the records in the "Wuji Shu Zang", the jade dragon can only be found in the deep mountains around Qingnan County, and it is a special product in this area.

With the power of the old Xiao family, there was no need to bother so much, whether it was fresh bear gallbladder or jade dragon brain, all he had to do was find Xiao Tian.The power of the dandy yamen in Xiao Tian's circle is far beyond the expectation of ordinary people.A phone call was made, and there were a lot of people below.

For example, last time in Hongshan Village, Luozhou County, the ancestral graveyard was rebuilt, that is, Xiao Tian made a phone call, and Yang Shi rushed to Luozhou County as quickly as possible, and instigated the deputy county magistrate with one sentence.

Even though fresh bear gallbladder and jade dragon brain are rare items, Xiao Tian only needs a phone call, and someone will try their best to send them to the capital without even taking half of the reward.

But the situation is obviously different now, knowing that there is a super master in the dark watching the old Xiao's house, for the sake of caution, Xiao Fan is absolutely unwilling to do these things through Xiao Tian.It's easy to save trouble, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep the secret.

And certainly not a secret.

It is related to the fate of the entire Xiao family, and Xiao Fan must not take any risks until the refining of the "Great Repayment Pill of the Universe" is completed.

This is also the reason why he had just finished deducing the "blood phase", and had no time to rest and recover, so he ran non-stop from the northeast to the southwest.Only by going out in person can he ensure that the secrets of the sky are completely covered and will not be noticed by the other party.

Xiao Fan has also done fishing, but he is not a master.Only in my spare time, I fish occasionally, mainly to hone my mind and resolve impetuousness.At such a level, it is undoubtedly impossible to catch jade dragons.

Since this Zhou Qingnan was the third runner-up in the Shancheng City Fishing Competition and a native of Qingnan County, he was the most suitable candidate.

Xiao Fan and Xin Lin came to the big office of ICBC.

Although Zhou Qingnan is the deputy director of the industrial and commercial office, in a small county like Qingnan-Xiancheng Guanzhen, a deputy director of the industrial and commercial office does not have the conditions to have his own office alone.

Behind the first desk after entering the door, a young cadre was sitting bored reading a newspaper.Before Xiao Fan could open his mouth to ask, the young cadre sensed that someone had entered the door, he put down the newspaper hastily, and raised his head, his "vigilance" seemed to be quite high.

"Who are you looking for?"

Seeing that the two were dressed in ordinary clothes, the tone of the young cadre was not very polite, and naturally he was not arrogant.

Because of the difference in latitude, the extreme north is already chilly, but the southern part of Qing Dynasty is still relatively warm. Xiao Fan never wore a Tang suit, but an ordinary gray jacket, which was very cheap, and Hei Lin was not lying in his arms.

Qingnan - The county seat is not as densely populated as Lijiatun. Since it is a secret operation, the lower the profile, the better. Xiao Fan doesn't want to attract anyone's attention.As for Xin Lin, she still wore that extremely simple dress, but her natural beauty was hard to hide.

Xiao Fan smiled slightly, and asked politely, "Excuse me, is director Zhou Qingnan here? We are from the north, and we want to ask him for something."

"what's up?"

This time, the answer was not a young cadre, but a middle-aged male cadre sitting behind a desk at the far end, about forty years old, with a slightly fat body and a sinister appearance, especially a pair of eyeballs. Rotating around, giving people a bad impression.

"Excuse me, are you..."

"I'm Zhou Qingnan. Where did you come from? What do you want from me?"

Maybe Xiao Fan Xinlin really didn't look like a bad guy like a hooligan, so Zhou Qingnan directly admitted his identity.Besides, he had done nothing wrong, and he had nothing to fear.

I saw a few old newspapers on the desk in front of this "Zhou Shendiao", an ink cartridge next to him, and a brush in his hand, practicing calligraphy.

Practicing Chinese calligraphy is about sitting on a horse with one's waist down, raising one's arm and hanging one's wrist, which requires relatively high arm strength and wrist strength. It just so happens that fishing also pays attention to wrist strength. These two hobbies do have something in common.From this point of view, although the deputy director Zhou's appearance is not flattering, in terms of fishing skills, he should be very good.

"Director Zhou, I respect your name. I heard that you are the top three in the city's fishing competition, so we came here specially to visit."

"Oh? Are you from the city? You also like fishing?"

Zhou Qingnan didn't change his face because of Xiao Fan's politeness, he still looked them up and down, no smile on his sullen face.

"We are from the city, and we are doing some medicine business. This time we came to Qingnan specially, because we want to ask Director Zhou to do it himself..."

Before he could finish his sentence, heavy footsteps sounded at the door.As soon as they heard the footsteps, Zhou Qingnan and the young cadre's expressions changed immediately, and they jumped up hastily, smiling all over their faces, and Zhou Qingnan turned out from behind the desk very quickly.

Immediately, the light in front of him dimmed, and a huge body blocked the door.

"Director Cheng..."

Zhou Qingnan and the two nodded and bowed again and again.

In fact, the Director Cheng who appeared at the door was not very tall, the key was "big", chubby, like a mountain of meat, his visual weight was at least two hundred catties.No wonder the whole building seemed to vibrate slightly when he walked over just now.

Director Cheng stood there with his belly shy, his majestic eyes swept around, and fell on Xiao Fan and Xin Lin, slightly surprised, asked: "Old Zhou, are there any guests?"

After all, Director Cheng has a different vision. Although Xiao Fanxinlin's dress is ordinary, she has a faint atmosphere of a family, and Director Cheng dare not underestimate it.

Zhou Qingnan hurriedly said: "Ah, no, I don't know him either, maybe someone from another place came to our place to do business..."

Hearing this, Director Cheng felt relieved, and ignored Xiao Fan and the two immediately, walked into the office with his chest out, and said with a smile: "Old Zhou, I found a good hook, show it to me. Does it work?"

As he spoke, he took out a small, exquisite-looking box from his jacket pocket, opened it carefully, and took out a shiny fishhook from inside.As far as the fishhook is concerned, this hook is not small, and its shape is quite unique, full of curvaceous beauty.It's just that at this moment, it is too small to be pinched in Director Cheng's carrot-thick big fingers. If you don't look carefully, you really can't see the hook, only the meat.

When Zhou Qingnan saw it, he was amazed immediately, and tsk-tsk: "Director Cheng is really good-sighted. This is the obliquely curved hunchback hook made by the Wuxi Golden Bow in the past. This hook has good steel and strong strength. It is really a good hook. A few years ago, it was It's not uncommon, and it's very rare now. Although the hook is a little bulky and not too sharp, it matches Director Cheng's wrist strength and wrist-shaking kung fu."

Director Cheng laughed loudly and said, "Old Zhou, you just know how to coax people... What wrist strength and wrist shaking skills do I have? Regardless of my size, I am actually puffy and can't be counted. I was Having said that, this kind of hook can only be used by experts, and a novice like me may not be able to use it. Now it seems that this is really the case."

That's what I said, but it can be seen that Director Cheng's "flattery" to Zhou Qingnan is still very useful.

Director Cheng looks fat and fat, but he is not stupid at all.Although old Zhou was flooded with flattery, he still grasped the "essence" through the appearance at once. Zhou Qingnan was actually reminding him that you old man is a novice, so don't use this kind of hook.

You won't!

The key point is that Director Cheng heard the overtones and was not angry. This is his skill.In the officialdom, one must have the eyesight to see the essence through appearances and the tolerance of a big belly.

How can you become an official with a small belly?
