Lao Tzu is a toad

Chapter 344
When she went to work the next day, Zhou Ying didn't dare to look at Zhao Jiadi squarely, making him dumbfounded. How could it be that Zhou Ying felt guilty after she didn't pay for whoring?Zhu Ping, who is already a married woman, is much more sophisticated, as if she has lost her memory of yesterday's events. In the office, she is still the woman who looks awe-inspiring and inviolable, always a dignified lady.Zhao Jiadi liked Zhu Ping's style of behavior very much, at least he was not twitchy. Zhou Ying was still a little tender after all. Ping, I believe Zhou Ying will firmly believe that this is the one who is close to vermilion and not the one who is close to ink.At noon, Zhao Jiadi asked Kong Youming for leave. He didn't go into details, but explained that he was going to get some things from Secretary Li of the provincial government. Kong Youming didn't ask in detail, and gave Zhao Jiadi a half-day sick leave. , was stopped by Kong Youming, and took half a catty of tea in a tube from the cabinet, saying that a friend surnamed Xu dragged him to give it to Secretary Li for a drink.Zhao Jiadi was influenced by people around him to become a semi-expert in tea. After leaving the National Development and Reform Commission, he looked at the label before riding a bicycle. Hey, Jinjunmei, single-bud black tea, this tea is produced in Tongmuguan, Wuyi Mountain. Newborns who have only emerged in the past two years have no historical origins. Compared with old famous teas such as Longjing tea, they belong to the "side door" of swordsmanship, but they are very popular in the tea arena. Breaking 6, it will continue to rise depending on the situation. Zhao Jiadi has never drank it, but Huang Fangfei is a master of stir-frying tea. Of course, this "stir-fry" has a deep meaning, so Zhao Jiadi is no stranger to Jin Junmei.When we arrived at the provincial government square, Zhao Jiadi called Li Tan with an inconspicuous bag.Sitting in the Audi, Li Tan drove the car himself. Zhao Jiadi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, handed half a catty of Jin Junmei to Li Tan.Zhao Jiadi said hilariously, our Director Kong said that it was a person surnamed Xu, please drink and have a look.Li Tan knew it in his heart, smiled lightly, originally wanted to put it aside, he was not interested in black tea, he didn't drink this tea, but he didn't want to send it back, it would be too embarrassing, Kong Youming's surname was Xu A Wenzhou businessman wanted to outsource a share of a project led by NMG in Zhejiang Province. The company he controlled was not bad in strength, but his qualifications were relatively low. Logically speaking, he could not get his turn. He stayed in Hangzhou for a month and treated guests every day. After dinner, I found Li Tan through some relationship. Because of a small detail that everyone didn't pay attention to, Li Tan didn't pay attention to this Wen Shang who actually had a good reputation. The eyebrows are even more slanted. Of course, Wen Shang, surnamed Xu, is not hoping to get through the joints of Li Tan, a great bodhisattva, with a box of tea, but if Li Tan accepts it, no matter what his thoughts and attitudes are, he will not accept it. The difference, a[-] drove out of Shengfu Road, headed for Tianmushan Road, while waiting for the red light, Li Tan had nothing to do, picked up the can of tea again, opened it, picked up a handful, looked first, then smelled, raised his head and asked Said: "The price of this package is eight thousand per catty. Guess how much you can sell for half a catty here?"

It sounds like a very idiotic question, but from what Li Tan said, Zhao Jiadi didn't dare to take it lightly. Personnel relationship is not a straight line of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. He tentatively replied: "Ten thousand?"

Li Tan laughed and said: "The Jin Junmei here is not only inconsistent with the packaging, but also different from all the other ones on the market. There is a price but no market. If you go to someone who knows tea and ask for [-] yuan, he will feel that he has made a profit. "

Zhao Jiadi tsk-tsk said: "Gifts are all out of the way."

Li Tan covered it and threw it to Zhao Jiadi, "I'll see you off."

Seeing that Zhao Jiadi was still a bit reluctant, Li Tan laughed angrily and said, "Others have sharpened their heads to give me things, but you still find it troublesome to take the things I gave you?"

Zhao Jiadi rolled his eyes and muttered, "I can't even finish my own tea at home."

Li Tan ignored this, and said softly: "This thing is not given away for free. You can pick out half a catty of your tea leaves at random, remember to choose relatively cheap and common ones, give them to Kong Youming, and give them to him. Don't say anything now."

Zhao Jiadi was stunned for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "Brother Li, have you agreed to match up with the surnamed Xu? I'll make it clear, don't break your rules just because I'm off for half a day. If something bad happens then , Am I going to be scolded to death by you!"

Li Tan said with a smile: "You don't have the ability. If someone gives you a gift with a low eyebrow, if you don't accept it or pay attention to it, they won't think too much about it. But if you accept it, but don't give any response, no one has the slightest temper." Mud Bodhisattva, let’s just say that the guy surnamed Xu is also a famous person in Wenzhou. They can’t really do anything to me, but you can’t guarantee that he won’t say that the guy surnamed Li is no good when chatting in the circle of friends. Authentic, too arrogant, over time, if someone surnamed Wang and surnamed Deng come again, the word of mouth will be gone. I sent back half a catty of tea, you don’t understand what it means, Kong Youming and the old fried dough stick surnamed Xu understand it, I don’t care about it Help, but at least it is a familiar face. For the person surnamed Xu, this trip to Hangzhou may not be all in vain. This is telling the truth, not me. If the person surnamed Xu is smarter, next time it will be I went to visit directly instead of asking Kong Youming to forward the tea. As for why I didn't help, heh, not to mention half a catty of tea, it is half a ton. As long as you are not to my liking, you really can't knock on my door So, if someone surnamed Xu invites you to eat and drink in the future, just order the best and most expensive ones. You can’t, if someone surnamed Xu is uninterested and wants to drag you into the water, you can greet me immediately, and I’ll tell him not to mess around here in the future, this is a matter of principle, don’t think Brother Li is making a fuss.”

Zhao Jiadi said with emotion: "This time I have been taught."

Li Tan said calmly: "In the future, if you have something to learn, take your time. Jiadi, I may not be able to help you a lot in the future, but at least under my nose, don't think anyone will lead you to a crooked path."

Zhao Jiadi hesitated to speak.

Li Tan's tone suddenly became sad, he looked out of the window, and laughed at himself: "You must be very surprised why I dragged you to Yuhang, now I'll get to know you, I'm going to the Provincial Second Prison and the Provincial Fourth Prison to visit the two My friend, actually my best friend is not here, he is in the first provincial prison, but he moved to ZZ City in 15, he happened to be in the first provincial prison in [-], and he hasn’t come out yet, the second provincial prison , entered in [-], was sentenced to [-] years, and the fourth provincial prison was slightly better. In six years, one fell on a woman, and the other two were defeated by the same thing, money. I entered with them at about the same time The system, except for the one in the Provincial No. [-] Prison, the other two are sitting at the main hall level. As long as there is no accident, it is easy to get a deputy senior official. As for the one who stays in the Provincial No. [-] Prison, he is the most talented genius I have ever seen. His forecast of the general situation in the economic field is like a prophet. You are like him, so I especially don’t want you to make mistakes. Except for these three friends who I visit every year, in fact, all the provincial prisons in the province have me. I know them, maybe they are colleagues who are very beautiful in good times and miserable in bad times, or they may be my political opponents who have died with me. When it's my turn to go in, I can join a table of mahjong, but unfortunately I have them as role models, and I haven't fulfilled their wishes."

The Second Provincial Prison located in Linping Town has a beautiful scenery, not quite like the gloomy prison in the impression.

With Li Tan personally arranging, it is not difficult for an outsider like Zhao Jiadi to get in, not to mention that the fallen officials they want to visit are no longer sensitive characters.Completely involved in the bureau, this is basically the end of political life for officials, and the concept of accountability for ordinary officials with profound knowledge is completely different. The one who was sentenced to 15 years in the second provincial prison was a bureau He was about to be promoted to the top leader of the provincial organization department, and the provincial organization department has almost passed, and the future is promising, so when he was invited to drink tea, his first thought was not to confess and be lenient, but to commit suicide, not all because of the end of his official career , but he had been glamorous for half his life, the gap was too great, and living was like trying to survive. Later, Li Tan had a heart-to-heart talk, which enlightened him, turned the corner all of a sudden, and never wanted to die.When I saw Zhao Jiadi today, the uncle was very talkative, eloquent, clear and logical, and he was not out of touch with the outside world at all. He pointed out the world's affairs, and they were all targeted. Under the secret operation of Li Tan and his family, he was sentenced to 15 years. I entered in seven years, but I can go out in two or three years. The uncle joked that after going out, he would compete with Zhao Jiadi in table tennis.In the Provincial Fourth Prison, Zhao Jiadi had a deeper understanding of Li Tan, not because of what Li Tan said, but through his calm and gentle conversation, Zhao Jiadi learned that the person in the car was Li Tan's. The kind of officialdom opponent that is either you die or me dies. Before they were sacked, the two were promoted to the rank of division together, entered the provincial party school together, and competed for a certain position together. The upward curve was exactly the same, and he even stabilized for a while Li Tan was on the other side, if Secretary Huang hadn't saved Li Tan at that time, Li Tan would have returned to the local city disheartened, where would there be Secretary Li who is now looking wildly in the capital?The uncle finally said something that touched Zhao Jiadi very much: "When you are in power, everyone is smiling at you. They look very courteous, but they are all fake. When you are losing power, everyone is still smiling at you. It’s cold, but it’s all true in the end.”

After leaving the Provincial Fourth Prison, Li Tan sighed and said, "I have a chance to take you to Quzhou once."

Zhao Jiadi nodded and said, "Okay."

Li Tan didn't drive back directly, but drove to Xixi Wetland. In the center of the wetland, there is a semi-club place on the island. Don't go in without an appointment. Li Tan took Zhao Jiadi to the island, and Zhao Jiadi said with a smile It would be great if this is a single-family private house. If Li Tan is not in a good mood, then you have to climb for 40 years. If you are lucky, you can have such a place in the future.Zhao Jiadi shook his head and said that this is not attractive at all.Li Tan joked that he almost forgot that you are a rich second generation who treats money like dung.Zhao Jiadi quickly retorted that this remark did not please his ears, money treats me like dung, low-key and low-key, I learned from the leader.Li Tan smiled and said that's fine, you drive when you go back, there is no reason for the leader to be the driver.

Zhao Jiadi and Li Tan had dinner on the island, and they worriedly asked during the meal, "Brother Li, is it okay for you to come out like this?"

Li Tan laughed dumbly and said: "Don't talk about the provincial government building, you go to the municipal government building and have a look. How many mayors are sitting in the office? Do you really think that everyone is doing their best all the time? It's too infinitely overstating the leadership realm of thought."

Zhao Jiadi threw a cigarette to Li Tan, he threw it, he didn't pass it on, and Li Tan took it for granted, and took it without any criticism.

The two looked at the beautiful lake view that was close at hand outside the window, Li Tan blew out a smoke ring, and said softly: "It is normal for people to drink cold tea, but only those who are willing to drink cold tea with the cold palace will be regarded as friends. If one day I get into the game, you kid will come to visit once a year even if you put on a show."

Zhao Jiadi said helplessly: "Brother Li, you never cursed yourself like that."

Li Tan laughed, squinted his eyes and said: "Fried cold rice and cold tea in the officialdom, but a lot of knowledge, some chances and blessings that can't be expected under normal circumstances, maybe they will bump into them at any time, and you can't dodge them even if you want to."

Zhao Jiadi firmly believed in this sentence.

Li Tan can have today's grand atmosphere, who dares to say that there is no such blessing behind it?
