Lao Tzu is a toad

Chapter 112
Uncle Zhong drives in the same style as his honest appearance. He is even and steady. The license plate of this Audi A8 is very ordinary, without a series of 8s, and it does not have a scary license plate that is associated with the government or the army. Zhao Jiadi is dressed better than the first The first time I saw Mu Hongli's uncle and aunt were serious, sitting in the passenger seat seemed a bit reserved, the little loli Chen Qingzhi, who was more princess than a little princess, found it very interesting, and whispered in the ear of the beautiful Aunt Cai from time to time Mutter.

Aunt Cai seemed a little bit sorry for involving classmate Zhao, who suffered an innocent disaster, and she said a little more along the way, explaining that the organizer had a background in an institution of the Shanghai government, and the specifications were not good enough. Low, the officials will be attended by the top leaders of the city government, maybe it will be even higher. It is a celebration banquet for the economic development of Shanghai this year. Among the economic giants in the Yangtze River Delta of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, there are many powerful people. To participate, Zhao Jia was absent-minded at first, and then Aunt Cai mentioned that if you want to develop in the southeast coast in the future, today is considered a warm-up event, don’t care, Zhao Jiadi smiled and said that he was taught, and solemnly stated that he must be ready to fight in the future. Treat this banquet with the fullest mental state, and pay attention to all men and women who are qualified to participate in the celebration banquet in terms of tactics and strategy.Aunt Cai stopped talking and looked playful. The A8 finally stopped at the North Bund pier in Shanghai, instead of the usual Dongdaming Road pier. Zhao Jiadi, a bumpkin, got out of the car and was amazed when he saw the huge cruise ship docked by the pier. Aunt Cai explained that this ship It is called Sea Breeze, and it is one of the best luxury cruise ships in Asia. It cannot stop at Dongdaming Wharf. If it is the smaller Lixing and Costa, they will not use the North Bund Wharf today.Zhao Jiadi is a military fan, plus he is an experienced warship controller, so he has a lot of research on the tonnage, and he said, "Hey, this big guy must have a tonnage of more than [-], right? The Titanic was only four o'clock back then." A little more than five.Aunt Cai is no stranger to the Sea Breeze, and she has long been familiar with Zhao Jiadi's sensitivity to data. She said that the Sea Breeze is about [-]:[-], which is indeed not small, and the facilities are also better than Li, who is more famous among ordinary people. Star and Costa are much more advanced.

Zhao Jiadi stared at the behemoth in front of him, dazed.A small part of the reason is that when Jiang Tanle, a schizophrenic patient and elegant OL, occasionally talked about her "dissolute" life plan, she mentioned a lot about traveling around the world on a cruise ship. She understands whether she supports it or opposes it, what she loves, and she also made it clear that the honeymoon period of the two of them living together will end, and they will let him leave in the future. It is definitely a lie to say that he is not depressed at all, but To say that he was seriously injured would not be enough. Marshal Shen, the only young man in dormitory 103, always said that life would be wonderful if life was just like the first time you saw it. In many other aspects, Zhao Jiadi did not approve of Shen Han, but this was true. There is some compatibility. In fact, to be honest, if Jiang Tanle doesn't rush, Zhao Jiadi doesn't mind staying in Jiang Tanle's exquisite nest all the time, without disturbing each other. She reads books and movies about his battle stories, and teaches her when she has nothing to do. Playing Go, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger on Tom, or being taken by her to a restaurant that is not well-known but very bourgeois, are all very pleasant things. Anyway, Jiang Tanle is not a little woman, no He needs to take the responsibility deliberately, but how can there be such a good consummation in the world, every time Zhao Jiadi thinks of her coming back from the m2 bar, she vomits heartbreakingly, and every time she sleeps with her, she will curl up in the corner of the bed Posture, suddenly a little sentimental.

But the more important reason for his ecstasy now is Wang Banjin, because this sister who has no blood relationship is very similar to Jiang Tanle, but not very similar. It is said that when he was a child, he liked to take a boat the most. From Dalian to Ningbo, the magic capital, he would rather take a boat. I also don’t want to take a car or plane. According to my aunt, the boat was as bumpy and swaying as possible, but Wang Banjin just liked it. So far, Wang Banjin has been on many cruise ships when she was in college, and she has also taken many tour routes. They are all ocean-going ones that last at least ten days and a half a month. She plays photography at a professional level. Running around, there are countless photos, but they are all stored on the private computer, only for Comrade Zhao and her mother to see, Zhao Jia does not doubt that if she releases an album or travel book or something, she will be very popular, but obviously Wang Ban If Jin wanted to do that, he wouldn't be the King Daji who caused headaches for the two families but doted on him.

Wang Banjin made a phone call some time ago and said that she had to fly directly to Yanjing for the new year, and it was unlikely that she would fly to Magic City and then go to TS to celebrate the Spring Festival together. She's a big girl, she's crazy enough, she should do something for the family, Zhao Jiadi has always been unfavorable about Wang Banjin's blind date and marriage, but the Wang family is a traditional and old-fashioned big family. Zhao Jiadi really doesn't think that his own family, which has so much money that even grandma doesn't know, can be compared with the Wang family. It is a red family that has been rich and honored for three generations in a real sense. From a certain point of view, although Wang Banjin is his sister, But I don’t know how many times more popular than his root Zhengmiao, and there is no white man. Now the decline returns to the decline, and the decline returns to the decline, but in the end it is the centipede that is dead but not stiff. Well, this metaphor is very disrespectful to the old Wang family, but this It was Wang Banjin who often talked about it himself, no wonder Zhao Jiadi didn't like to see the Wang family, which used to be as deep as the sea, very much.

"What are you thinking?" Aunt Cai smiled. After getting out of the car, this guy was in a daze, his expression changed, and he refused to move. They went up and waited together for a few minutes. Finally, Aunt Cai couldn't help asking. She couldn't keep Zhao Jiadi in a daze. It wasn't because she felt ashamed, but mainly because she didn't want to cause too many unnecessary troubles on the pier. line of sight.Little Loli stood beside Aunt Cai and looked at the men and women who boarded the boat. The women were full of jewels and radiant looks, and most of the men looked like dogs. After all, in the Yangtze River Delta, which has always been affluent, it is no different from the inland areas. The middle-aged or elderly men come here in big winds and waves, or they have been fascinated by their parents since they were young, but they still saw a lady with a string of heavy diamond necklaces hanging around her neck. , coupled with the lack of aura but dare to wear a red cheongsam, it looks nondescript, the little loli was secretly happy, and she didn't forget to secretly tug on Aunt Cai's mink collar, very playful, Aunt Cai knocked on her little cheongsam Head, indicating not to be naughty, the little loli giggled and stood beside Aunt Cai, like a small epiphyllum blooming under a big peony.

Zhao Jiadi realized his gaffe, quickly came to his senses, apologized, and led by Cai Qiang to take the cruise ship of Modufeng. Today, Cai Qiang is in good spirits, with a neat suit, and looks like an elite official. Even standing next to Aunt Cai, who is the absolute focus, does not make people feel awkward. This is enough to make Zhao Jiadi, who looks plain, feel ashamed. He sighs in his heart that he is indeed Aunt Cai's younger brother, and his skin is good , beside Zhao Jiadi, the hard-core people in the circle like Lao Yang's pistol, the second generation and the third generation of ancestors, are not outstanding. The playboy Ma Xiaotiao is a little more brilliant, but the gap with Shangque Cai Qiang and others is still not small, but Yuan Shu's childhood sweetheart named Liu Shuwen makes the same sex more jealous, and Zhao Jiadi said to the elders in his village The face that resembles Bodhisattva Zhao's when he was young doesn't have any special emotion. Anyway, he didn't feel sorry for Zhaojiacun and didn't feel sorry for his parents, and he didn't expect to make the crush Bai Cai fall in love at first sight and become a nympho. This kind of activity should be left to Sparrow or Brother Zhao Yan. Do it, he is not very envious.

Cai Qiang couldn't be in a bad mood. Although Aunt Cai brought an outsider, Zhao Jiadi, into the boat as an extravagance, it was an eyesore, but generally speaking, it didn't affect her mood. After stepping on the deck, she explained something about the Sea Breeze to Little Lori and Zhao Jiadi Case.

He was finally able to get out of the deep water in the secretariat of the Magic City Mansion, where he had no backstage, no background, and was doomed to be difficult to swim ashore. The titular big boss who only took benefits but refused to do things was finally willing to let him go to Zhejiang in the name of half-communication Development is like this in the officialdom. The big and small bosses in some key positions may not be able to support anyone, but it is easy to delay someone for two or three years if they are unhappy. He is much better than his colleagues, but the official team here has too much knowledge, ability, and even more opportunity. If he continues to hang around in Shanghai, he is 29 years old, and it may take several years before he can climb up to the position of deputy director. , That's why he used all means to cling to Secretary-General Su's deep-rooted tree in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. It's not shameful.Cai Qiang, who was leading the way, subconsciously glanced at the peaceful sister. He was grateful to this half-sister who left the countryside early. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't be where he is today. A 29-year-old man from the countryside, It is too difficult to get ahead in the city of Shanghai, because of his sister, he was able to study at ease when he was a teenager. He studied in the best middle school in the county in junior high school, and was sent to the best high school in Hangzhou in high school. Under the arrangement of that "brother-in-law", he joined the party in high school and was admitted to Zhejiang University. Although his sister never deliberately arranged his life, at least she gave him a smooth sailing that was enough to make his classmates envious. But occasionally, Cai Qiang There will also be depression and unwillingness, because he knows that if his sister is willing to work harder, even a little bit more, he could have been the top secretary of the second office two years ago, but she didn't, she has always been Standing on the sidelines, the brother-in-law who admired Cai Qiang so much that he respected him more or less wanted to arrange his future early, but his sister stopped him and made it clear that he would let Cai Qiang go on his own. Cai Qiang can still be calm. After getting to know Secretary-General Su and seeing many people who are related to him in the officialdom, he becomes more and more obsessed, so even if his sister is lukewarm to Secretary-General Su, he will I hope it will lead to good things. A man in his early forties, a man at the official level, although his spouse is dead, has a good life style, and he is barely worthy of his sister. Of course, Cai Qiang asked himself. Finding a better man is not difficult.

Half an hour before the dinner party, Cai Qiang took Aunt Cai and the others to a spacious and elegant room with an antique flavor and a sandalwood coffee table. Only a middle-aged man was making tea by himself. His posture was peaceful and he looked like a mature man. When he saw Aunt Cai, he smiled and stood up. When Cai Qiang helped introduce Zhao Jiadi and little loli Chen Qingzhi, his smile was as usual and approachable, but his eyes stayed on Zhao Jiadi for a little longer, flashing After sitting down, all his attention was focused on Aunt Cai. He didn't hide his admiration for Aunt Cai, and said, "Yanzhi, this is the tea I brought here specially. Wanghai Tea, from "Xu Xiake's Travel Notes" "The place of the first article, we in Ninghai, Zhejiang, got it from an old monk's tea garden with great difficulty, you should try it too, the reputation is not big, but it has its own taste."

Yan Zhi.

Zhao Jiadi finally knew Aunt Cai's name.

After sitting down, Aunt Cai took the teacup from the man without being polite, tasted it, nodded and said, "It's not bad."

The man who doesn't like to put on airs also gave Zhao Jia the first cup of tea with a pleasant face. Zhao Jiadi is a common man, and he probably won't be able to drink tea for a lifetime like the old tea drinkers who "purify the dust and worry for a while, and the breeze blows two armpit". The realm, but still have to pretend to drink.The middle-aged man was very considerate and asked Cai Qiang to turn on the LCD TV for the little Lolita. The little Lolita quietly watched the children's programs that children of her age loved to watch. The man who came out and sat across from him was a witty and well-spoken master. He was able to chat with Queen Aunt Cai without losing his temper. They talked about some macro-level topics, but they were not too general, and he grasped them very well. Cai Qiang was very conscientious. Zhao Jiadi played the role of handyman, serving tea and water, which made Zhao Jiadi a bit out of place. Fortunately, Zhao Jiadi was not thin-skinned. When he was a man, he didn't say much, but he only mentioned the title of Secretary-General Su. When he was introduced, he didn't mention tutoring. He just said that he was a friend of Situ Qiangqiang. After giving his name, he even took the initiative to shake Zhao Jiadi's hand, and the handshake was soft. As expected of a big shot who has been immersed in officialdom for 20 years, he is impeccable.

The man's mobile phone is placed on the coffee table, and he smokes Liqun, which is the most smoked by Zhejiang people. It is a relatively cheap old version of Liqun. The watch he wears is also an old-fashioned watch. The sound was muted, but the screen was always on, but he didn't touch it or look at it. He didn't get up until the pot of tea was seven or eight minutes old, and he talked about the same as Aunt Cai. Then he got up and said to see an old friend. When the banquet started to reunite, Aunt Cai bid him farewell with a smile, Cai Qiang sent him to the door, but the man smiled and said Xiao Cai, you also go to meet those friends with me, so you can get familiar faces, Aunt Cai didn't stop him , so Cai Qiang followed with a little excitement.Zhao Jiadi made an excuse to go to the bathroom, then left the tea room, took out his mobile phone, and found a number, which belonged to Fang Yue, the female owner behind the VOGUE bar in Hangcheng, because this was the Secretary-General Su who he had met in VOGUE last time, at that time The booth next door was accompanied by Fang Yue himself. The call was connected quickly, and Sister Fang's voice was still sweet, mixed with a hint of joy and surprise. I guess the joy was full of water, but the surprise was genuine. After all, Zhao Jiadi left Hangzhou. Since then, I haven't contacted this strong woman in Hangzhou again. After a while of pleasantries, Zhao Jiadi cut straight to the point and said, Sister Fang, I met the person who drank with you at the bar last time through a friend's introduction. I would like to take the liberty to ask, this Su How about the secretary.Zhao Jiadi knew that he was asking a very straightforward question, and Sister Fang on the other end of the phone was speechless for a while. She was probably preparing for words. Zhao Jiadi was not in a hurry and waited patiently. He just explained what my friend wanted to ask Secretary-General Su had some errands to deal with, and he was a little uncertain about his temper. He was afraid that he would find the right temple and pick up the wrong pig's head, so why not come to Sister Fang to ask for some scriptures, so as to avoid detours.After listening to Zhao Jiadi's out-of-the-box explanation, Sister Fang was obviously much more relaxed. She said that Secretary-General Su was a good person and didn't like to play sloppy eyes. It can be done, Zhao Jiadi thanked Sister Fang.Sister Fang on the other end of the phone said she was so polite, Jiadi, did she treat Sister Fang too much as an outsider?Zhao Jiadi said that there is nothing to do, and when I go back to Hangzhou, I must remember to help me choose a girl. The family is in a hurry, so I can deal with the elders.Sister Fang smiled and said no problem, wrapping it on Sister Fang, it would not be difficult to take one home one day.

After hanging up the phone and returning to the tea room, Aunt Cai glanced at Zhao Jiadi, seeing that he was still heartlessly drinking tea and wasting everything, she remained calm.After pouring down two cups of boiled water, Zhao Jiadi cautiously asked: "Aunt Cai, this guy looks good, and his quality is not bad, but he is not a little old."

"Do you dare to say this in front of Suhang?" Aunt Cai said angrily.

"How dare you, we still have a lot of good youth, and we don't have a lot of work." Zhao Jiadi said honestly.

"You dare to jump the Huangpu River, but you don't dare to say a word?" Aunt Cai said disdainfully.

"That's different. With Aunt Cai on the Huangpu River, there are mountains of swords and seas of fire." Zhao Jiadi said with a chuckle, "But it's not good to have an enemy for no reason. Let's be a kid who has just graduated from college and provoke a man who is in his prime. The big man in the officialdom doesn't know how to live or die. He is the secretary-general, and ordinary people can't afford to mess with him."

Aunt Cai didn't speak, and drank tea quietly.

"Auntie, is this the real master? I don't think even if he talks about the sword, he won't force me to jump the Huangpu River." Zhao Jiadi deliberately acted as if he was relieved.

Just as Aunt Cai was about to sneer at Zhao Jia for the first time, there was a knock on the door, and she said with a playful smile, "The lord is here."
