The welcome banquet for Li Yi and his entourage was set up in the welcome building of the Xichuan Provincial Government Hotel.

The pre-function building is dedicated to hosting important VIPs, and the environment and facilities are absolutely superb. Most of the officials of the central government stay here.

Responsible for receiving Li Yi were the comrades of the Xichuan Provincial Enterprise Reform Office, as well as the comrades of the provincial reception office, and the largest official in attendance was a vice governor of the provincial government.

This vice governor's name is Yan Heping, in charge of industry, and he can be regarded as a figure in Xichuan Province, he is not very tall, about 1.65 meters tall, but he weighs about 177, wears a white shirt, the shirt is tied in his pants, protrudes from a round and bulging belly, walks up, swaggers, and it is estimated that his eyes cannot see the toes.

Yan Heping came in after the reception banquet began, and as soon as he came in, he played a fake haha and said with a smile: "Director Li, you are not welcome!" I just attended an important meeting, and I am late, so please don't mind Director Li. ”

The staff introduced Yan Heping's identity on the side.

Li Yi shook hands with him and said, "Governor Yan is polite. Then he introduced several department-level cadres he brought down to Yan Heping. Everyone shook hands and greeted each other.

Everyone sat down, Yan Heping glanced at the wine on the wine table, sank his face, and said, "How can you use such a bad wine to entertain Director Li?" Pull down, go to Moutai! ”

Li Yi said with a smile: "Governor Yan, I told them not to be extravagant, I am a shallow drinker, so it's good to drink this." ”

Yan Heping said: "How can it be done?" There's a joke about that? He patted his forehead, he couldn't remember it for a while, and when he saw a female comrade at the reception, he pointed at her and said, "Xiaohua, do you remember?" Tell me about it! ”

That Xiaohua is a deputy director of the reception office of the Xichuan Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government.

The Reception Office of the Xichuan Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government is a department with no real power but very much power, which is responsible for the inspection of central leading comrades, the inspection of various departments of the central organs, and the reception of state guests.

The reception department is the most important office in the reception office, and the director of the reception office is also the director. This director is also concurrently served by the deputy secretary general of the provincial party committee.

The secretary general of the provincial party committee has a big responsibility on his shoulders, and he is usually busy with official business, and rarely directly manages and receives a place. Therefore. Although this Comrade Xiaohua is only the deputy director of the reception department, he is also the actual leader of the department.

Comrade Xiaohua's surname is Hua, and his name is Hua Yunxian.

Yan Heping was about fifty years old, and he called Comrade Hua Yunxian Xiaohua, but Comrade Xiaohua was actually not young, but a woman about thirty years old. The body is plump and round, the face is as bright as a peach and plum, and the personality is lively and cheerful, which is very suitable for reception work.

"Yo! Governor Yan, there are so many jokes, I don't know which one you are referring to? As soon as Comrade Hua Yunxian spoke, the coquettish tone immediately made the men's bodies crisp by half.

Yan Heping said: "It's related to wine, I heard you say it last time." ”

Hua Yunxian's eyes flickered. said: "I remembered, I said it, Governor Yan to see if it was this." ”

Yan Heping said, "You say." ”

Hua Yunxian smiled: "Drinking wine is like drinking soup." This person is in business and commerce. Drinking is like drinking water, definitely in the construction committee! There will be no bottle left per capita, and the work must be in finance! You don't need to be persuaded to drink, it's definitely in the court! Raise a glass and take a dry mouth, it must be public security! One can do two, two, five, this person must be in the country! Don't get drunk after drinking eight taels, this person is a national tax! Drunk every day is not injured, and the elder brother is eighty percent in the township! White wine, beer and red wine, it must be a leader! ”

Yan Heping hahadaxiao said: "Yes, yes, yes, that's it, it's just a little too long." I can't remember. Director Li, Brother Li, you are the leader of the transformation of a central enterprise! Beer, white, red. Be proficient in everything! Come on, two bottles of Moutai, and two bottles of Lafite! ”

When Li Yi heard this, he thought to himself, this Governor Yan seems to be a drunkard!

"Governor Yan, I still have work tomorrow, tonight's banquet, let's stop at a moment's notice!" Li Yi said.

Yan Heping said: "Director Li, don't worry, don't worry!" When you first came to Xichuan, we should do our best to be a landlord. ”

Li Yi said: "Governor Yan, we came to Xichuan this time, mainly to inspect the enterprise reform in Xichuan, for work, such a social thing, generally fine, no need to be extravagant." This wine is quite haode to drink this. ”

Yan Heping made a blank face and said, "Director Li, are you not giving me Yan someone's face?" No matter how poor we are in Xichuan, can we still lack the money for these bottles of wine? ”

Li Yi thought to himself, what kind of stinky shelf are you putting up! I didn't say anything excessive! But I came to Xichuan to investigate and investigate the enterprise reform work here, and I will have to deal with Yan Heping for a long time in the future, and all work also needs his cooperation and support. Then he said: "Governor Yan's words are serious, but my alcohol consumption is really not good, Governor Yan, what kind of wine do you want to drink, just casually, I can drink a little casually." ”

Yan Heping said: "Director Li, don't be modest. Comrade Xiaohua, fill the wine up. ”

The waiter brought two bottles of Moutai and two bottles of Lafite up, and Hua Yunxian smiled and said, "Director Li, let's have a glass of wine first?" ”

Li Yi looked at the two bottles of Lafite, and at a glance he could see that they were some vintage wines, and the price was very high.

Li Yi has always been honest as an official, and this meal and wine is used to entertain him, which is equivalent to bribing him! The higher the grade of this meal wine, the greater the cost, Li Yi eats other people's mouths short, and in the future inspection of state-owned enterprise reform, it is inevitable to cover up for Xichuan Province.

But this wine, others have already bought it for him, and there are high-ranking officials to accompany him, and there are even more beauties pouring wine, if he brushes his sleeves away, it's not impossible, but the next work will also be difficult! If he offends Yan Heping today, will he still cooperate with Li Yi at work?

Li Yi is in a dilemma, and under the trade-off, he has to go with the flow! said: "This hospitality standard is a bit high! Governor Yan, you make it difficult for me to live a good life. We are just a research team of the enterprise reform office, and we really dare not dare to eat and drink like this here. ”

Yan Heping said with a smile: "Director Li, you are the leaders of the central government, and you have worked so hard, we invite you to drink a glass of thin wine and wash the dust, what's wrong?" Director Li, come on, let's have a drink first! ”

This glass of wine is Yan Heping's respect, he is the highest official rank here, the first glass of wine to be respected, Li Yi basically has no possibility of refusing, so he can only have a toast with him.

A few people picked up chopsticks and ate vegetables.

Li Yi knew that this wine had just begun, and after Yan Heping toasted, the others would take turns to toast, if they drank it in one round, it was estimated that they would have to lie in bed for a day tomorrow.

In order to stop this toasting atmosphere, Li Yi must make his words clear now.

Li Yi's wine glass was quickly filled. He picked up his glass and said, "I've had a cold recently, and I really can't drink too much of this wine." I salute you with this glass of wine. As he spoke, he took a sip.

Toast on the wine table, your glass will not be empty, no matter how much you drink, someone will fill it for you immediately, so Li Yi did not take it easy and drank it dry, but gently took a sip as a toast.

Yan Heping said: "Director Li, seeing that you are tall and big, you are a good man, why are you so unpleasant to drink?" Xiaohua, you don't know anything about it, you have to respect Director Li! ”

Hua Yunxian held the wine glass and smiled at Li Yi: "Director Li, you came to Xichuan and are our distinguished guests, I respect you for this glass of wine." Since Director Li has a cold, then I will do it first as respect. As he spoke, he tilted his head and drank it dry, brightening the bottom of the cup.

Li Yi thought to himself, this Hua Yunxian can be the deputy director of the reception place, and sure enough, there are two brushes, just looking at the amount of wine, it is a must, and ordinary men will definitely not be able to compare to her.

Yan Heping said: "Director Li, all the women are dry, if you take another sip like this, it will be too heroic and short-breathed, right?" ”

This time, one of the people who accompanied Li Yi down was the director of the enterprise management office, named Zheng Chengze, who was pulled up by Li Yi.

Zheng Chengze saw Li Yi's embarrassment, picked up the cup, and said, "Director Li, I'll drink this glass of wine for you!" As he spoke, he said to Hua Yunxian: "Director Hua, our Director Li has a cold, so it is not appropriate to drink, I drank this glass of wine on his behalf." As he spoke, he drank it all.

Li Yi glanced at Zheng Chengze approvingly.

Yan Heping smiled: "This doesn't count, right?" Director Zheng, you are also our honored guest, and we still have to respect you after we finish saluting Director Li! Now you don't have to grab a drink to drink. Xiaohua, it seems that Director Li doesn't give you much face, you can say a joke to help the wine! Director Li, our Comrade Xiaohua is full of goods! Endless paragraphs. ”

Hua Yunxian smiled: "Then I will be ugly in front of the leader." I've heard people say that this drinking is done in stages. ”

Yan Heping smiled and said, "What stage?" ”

Hua Yunxian said: "There are five stages of drinking: one is the place. In the female stage, it is strictly guarded; The second is less. The women's stage, half pushed, half done; the third is the prime stage, and those who come do not refuse; Fourth, the widow. In the women's stage, if you don't look for me, I will look for you; The fifth is the old lady stage, and she is still blindly drawing if she can't do it. ”

"Haha!" The banquet hall erupted into a commotion.

Yan Heping pointed at Li Yi and said, "Director Li, do you understand?" Comrade Xiaohua is saying that you are still in the stage of strict defense, so you don't dare to have fun! ”

Li Yi glanced at that Hua Yunxian and thought to himself that this woman was so charming! In the reception office of the government department, it is really a bit nondescript to use such a woman, but there is no way to admit that there is such a woman as the director of the reception, how many Beijing officials will get drunk in this wine glass after they come down!

Hua Yunxian also looked at Li Yi and threw a wink, the big eyes, watery, as if they could generate electricity, and said, "Director Li, just this cup, you don't give me face?" ”
