Shen Youbin was afraid that Ye Ming would refuse again, so after saying that he wanted Ye Ming to follow them to the capital first, he immediately picked up his mobile phone, called Zou Wenming, and told him: Ye Ming is going to the capital with you, there is something very important I want him to help, so I have to ask the bureau for a few days off.

Seeing that it was Secretary Shen who personally called Ye Ming to ask for leave, Zou Wenming dared not agree?He said yes repeatedly on the phone, and then called Ye Ming himself, asking him not to worry about the affairs of the bureau, and to accompany Secretary Shen to the capital to get things done.

Ye Ming really didn't want to go to the capital, but Shen Youbin and Zou Wenming both said that, he couldn't refuse anymore, so he reluctantly agreed.

Ye Ming's style of doing things is either not to do it, or to do it well and succeed.

Therefore, after agreeing to Shen Youbin, he began to pay attention to the specific details of this matter, and asked Shi Xing: "Director Shi, what kind of personality is Director Lu Nianzi like? What hobbies do you have?"

Shi Xing replied: "According to my friends who work in the National Development and Reform Commission, Lu Nianzi is a very elegant woman with a high quality of life. She comes from a family, her father is the secretary of the provincial party committee, and her husband is also a young and talented woman. She is a leading cadre. Therefore, she is in her 30s and does not want to have children. She has strong work ability and outstanding performance, and is highly valued by the leaders of the National Development and Reform Commission. But outside of work, she also likes high-end and elegant In life, she likes to wear high-end brand-name clothes and go to high-end leisure and entertainment places. Her circle of friends are also descendants of high-ranking officials, wealthy people, celebrities, and movie stars. It is said that because of her good looks and elegant temperament, Lu Nianzi, When she was young, she really wanted to develop in the entertainment industry. When she was in college, she also acted as the second heroine of a famous youth idol movie. Unfortunately, her father and grandfather firmly refused her to engage in an acting career, so she had to enter a state agency instead. And successfully promoted to the position of director. Because of her acting talent and dream of becoming an actress since she was a child, her current circle of friends is the most in the entertainment industry. There are several famous female movie stars, For example, Li Shiyun, Fan Heyun, Du Yingying, etc. are her very good girlfriends. As for her character, many people say: She has inherited her father's advantages, she has a strong personality, but she is very righteous and kind-hearted. If you meet her for the first time Her people will think that she is a little arrogant. But after dating for a long time, you will know that she is actually very easy to deal with. "

Ye Ming listened to Shi Xing's eloquent talk without any hindrance or pause, secretly admired him, and said, "Director Shi, it seems that you have indeed done a lot of work to win Director Lu's support! You are able to understand her situation. It takes a lot of effort to understand such details.”

Shi Xing smiled smugly, and said: "Director Ye, to tell you the truth: because we understand Director Lu's habits and hobbies, we also made careful selections when preparing gifts for her. I believe, She will be delighted with our present if she promises to see us."

Ye Ming hurriedly asked: "Director Shi, what gift did you bring to Director Lu? How do you know that she will be very happy?"

"Because we know that she loves brand-name high-end clothes, all kinds of brand-name cosmetics and perfumes, we made a special trip to a mink coat store in Beijing and ordered a sable coat originally imported from a country in the Commonwealth of Independent States. It is a wild sable coat. It is made of fur, and all of them are made of female mink fur. The coat is shiny and soft, and it looks very luxurious and beautiful. The price is the most expensive among all the mink coats in that store. Director Lu is an expert, and she As long as you look at this mink coat, you will know its value; secondly, we went to a brand perfume store and bought six bottles of the limited edition of Clive Christian perfume no.1 series, called "Royal Dignity" ", each bottle is 500ml, and the total of six bottles is nearly 7 US dollars. This perfume is carefully refined from 170 kinds of flowers such as white sandalwood, Indian jasmine, and German rose. The complex synthesis process took six months, and the resulting The fragrance is exquisite and the aftertaste is long. Moreover, the bottle of this perfume is also from Bakalet, a crystal family, and the gold collar inlaid on the bottle mouth is decorated with 5 carat white diamonds. I think Director Lu will like these two things very much.”

Ye Ming was a little puzzled and said: "Secretary Shen, Director Shi, Lu Nianzi is the daughter of Secretary Lu. She should have been taught very strictly since she was a child. The things you brought her are all expensive luxury goods, and they are expensive. She dare not Dare to ask? Will something happen?"

After all, Shen Youbin is the secretary of the county party committee, so it is difficult to say anything, but Shi Xing laughed and said, "Director Ye, you are worrying too much! You should also know that every year before the Spring Festival, the county and city go to the province to pay New Year greetings to the leaders, and the province goes to the capital It has become a common practice to pay New Year's greetings to leaders. You said: Since you are going to pay New Year's greetings to leaders without bringing some souvenirs or other gifts, is it decent? This is a business-to-business matter. Although it is seriously investigated, it is a violation of discipline. It can also be regarded as bribery by the unit. But in fact, how many leaders have you seen were investigated and dealt with for giving gifts like this? So, this can only be said to be an unspoken rule. People with great power like Director Lu The person in charge of the department, this phenomenon should be seen a lot, so you don't have to worry about this problem at all."

Ye Ming thought about it, and felt that what Shi Xing said was indeed reasonable, and during the two festivals, it was indeed a common occurrence for subordinates to send New Year greetings to relevant departments and leaders of superiors.

In the Ming and Qing dynasties, there were two special words for this phenomenon, namely "Charcoal King" and "Bing King": Whenever winter comes, officials from all over the country think that Beijing officials buy charcoal for heating, and they ask their own charcoal for heating. Relying on the mountain to pay filial piety to money is called "charcoal respect"; when summer comes, there is another famous place for Beijing officials to cool off the summer heat, and to offer gifts and filial piety again, which is called "ice respect".In fact, "Bing Jing" and "Tan Jing" are other names for bribing the boss in summer and winter.But this kind of bribery neither mentions the words "money" or "wealth" and does not have the slightest smell of money, but also has a thoughtful and subtle meaning, which is convincing. This is the "hidden rule" of the officialdom at that time.

But now, taking advantage of the "two festivals", officials from all over the country pay New Year's greetings to superior departments and leaders' homes, which actually means paying "ice respect" and "charcoal respect".

In the afternoon of the same day, Shen Youbin, Shi Xing and Ye Ming rushed to the provincial capital, took the [-]:[-] p.m. flight, and arrived at the Capital Airport at [-]:[-] p.m.There, staff from the County Party Committee Office and Development and Reform Bureau who had arrived earlier were picking up the airport.

The next day, Shen Youbin brought Ye Ming and Shi Xing to the National Development and Reform Commission, called Lu Nianzi, and wanted to invite her to meet him, but Lu Nianzi flatly refused.
