Chapter 82: Turning Rivals into Friends
The few public security officers who came with him did not move, looking at the face of Director Chen in front of them. Director Chen didn't sit, and they all stood behind Director Chen and didn't sit. Director Chen didn't speak, and they all kept their mouths closed, just like human shadows.
Such shadows are not uncommon in officialdom, and the secretaries of the leaders and the guards of the chiefs generally belong to this category. Everything is only the leader of the horse.
"Don't be busy drinking! What about your murderer? Where is it? "Director Chen's eyes are above the top, he has a big belly, and he is full of officialdom.
"That's him!" Director Zhang pointed at Li Yi and said viciously: "Bureau Chen, you must teach me a good lesson for this kind of leaderless young man!" Brothers, I'm sorry for you! ”
"Brothers, do it, arrest people!" Director Chen just nodded slightly, and said a word with a full face, and without looking at Li Yi, he ordered his subordinates to arrest people.
Xue Xue hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Wait! This Comrade Chen, why did your public security officers arrest people without asking about it? At least ask about the origin and ins and outs of the matter, and divide who is right and who is wrong, right? ”
"Our public security arrested people, and we still need you to teach you a lesson?" Director Chen sneered.
Xue Xue was angry in her heart, she knew the director of the public security bureau of Dujuan City, not the one in front of her, this person was said to be big, at most he was the deputy director of the city bureau or the director of the sub-bureau, and the two were of the same level. But he is also the head of a county, and he is also the master of orders in the county, but I didn't expect this director to be so arrogant and so faceless, and he couldn't save face for a while. But this is other people's territory, no matter how powerful she is in Lianshui, when she arrives in the provincial capital, she is helpless.
Seeing that Xue Xue was ridiculed, Director Zhang felt a faint sense of happiness in his heart, feeling that he had put an official score in front of Xue Xue, as if he was shaking his majesty.
"Director Chen, don't come to harm? As the head of a game, what a big official authority! Do you still recognize it? Li Yi cocked his legs and said slowly.
"Ahh Director A looked at it, immediately put his hand down from under the butt of the gun, his eyes lowered, the smile on his face was bright, his straight stomach was also withdrawn, he bent down slightly, approached Li Yi and said, "Brother Li Yi!" Why are you here? Hehe, you're really not interesting, you came here to be chic, and you didn't call your little brother! ”
This Director Chen is none other than Chen Xiang!
This sudden change suddenly made everyone else in the room stunned.
Everyone in the room noticed that when Chen Xiang spoke just now, he used the self-title of "little brother"! In officialdom, not only is it very particular about the names of others, but it is even more important to call oneself in front of others. But there are obviously not many who call themselves junior brothers, not to mention, Chen Xiang is older than Li Yi no matter how he looks at it!
As soon as everyone's minds turned, they immediately understood that this Director Chen had an unusual relationship with Li Yi!
Director Zhang secretly screamed that it was not good, a layer of fine cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he said in a hurry: "Director Chen, do you know each other?" ”
Chen Xiang glared: "What do you mean by knowing!" This is my brother! Well, Director Zhang, the person you just said beat you can't be my brother, right? ”
Li Yi dusted off his clothes and said with a smile: "Director Chen, I didn't want to make a big deal out of it, since you're here, I can't let you go empty-handed, right?" Here's the thing. This Director Zhang, relying on his power, forced my friend to accompany the wine, I can't see it, blocked the salty pig hand, Director Zhang was angry, grabbed a cup to smash me, oh, broken porcelain pieces are still all over the ground! As soon as he missed, he made another plan to bring out the majesty of your Chen Governor to suppress me. Now this is the case, how to deal with it, it depends on what you Director Chen means. ”
Chen Xiang was also like a ghost, and after a slight look at everyone's expressions, he believed that what Li Yi said was true, and said with a haha: "This matter, the facts are all there, and the human and material evidence are all there, at least it is a crime of intentional wounding, right?" Brother, don't you say? He spoke to Li Yi, but his eyes watched Director Zhang's reaction.
Director Zhang's face really changed: "Director Chen, you want to uphold justice, you are called by me!" ”
Chen Xiang said slowly: "Lao Zhang, justice is in the hearts of the people, but it doesn't depend on who calls the police first!" We don't help our relatives, and we can only do everything according to the rules. ”
When Director Zhang heard this, he was secretly frightened, Chen Xiang called him a brother on weekdays, and the relationship between the two was very iron, and they often drank and had fun together, otherwise he wouldn't be able to call Chen Xiang on the phone. But Chen Xiang's current attitude is thought-provoking, he understands that Chen Xiang is absolutely good to a person for no reason, and it is so good that even he can ignore Director Zhang!
There is only one reason, this young man is not small!
Wang Yang saw that Li Yi hadn't come back for a long time, and heard the commotion outside, so he also came over to take a look, and sure enough, he saw Li Yi inside, and shouted with a smile: "Li Yi, why did you come here to eat if you don't drink the wine over there?" That's not enough buddy! ”
It's okay for people who don't know Wang Yang, but Director Zhang is from the Provincial Water Conservancy Department, and he usually walks around the provincial leader's house, so he naturally knows Wang Yang, not to mention that Wang Yang looks like his father, as long as people who are familiar with Wang Guozhi can recognize Wang Yang's dignity at a glance.
Director Zhang was a little stunned when he saw Wang Yang and Li Yi calling him brothers, and his eyes when he looked at Li Yi changed instantly, and after a closer look, he suddenly remembered something, patted his head and said: "Li Yi, why is this name so familiar, is it the author of the report on scientific development and modernization of water conservancy, Comrade Li Yi?" ”
Xue Xue said: "That's Section Chief Li's masterpiece!" ”
Director Zhang sighed, put down the official shelf, his voice softened, and with an expression of seeing an old acquaintance, he said to Li Yi with a smile: "Section Chief Li, I really don't know each other!" Haha, the flood has washed the Dragon King Temple! The family doesn't know the family anymore! This person is so fickle that Li Yi is a little surprised, as if the bloody conflict that almost escalated just now has never happened at all.
Chen Xiang coughed lightly: "Lao Zhang, didn't you want to sue Section Chief Li just now?" ”
Director Zhang's face did not change and his heart did not beat, and he smiled: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" We're all friends! Come, come, come, please sit down, I toast you. ”
Director Zhang is a cadre of a veteran organ, and his means of seeing the wind and steering the rudder are not trivial.
Chen Xiang deliberately helped Li Yi and wanted to return Li Yi's favor as soon as possible, so he smiled and said: "Director Zhang, it's not a question of whether you sue or not, but whether people sue you or not!" ”
As he spoke, Chen Xiang looked at Li Yi. Li Yi understood what Chen Xiang meant, but he had never been a troublemaker, not to mention that the money from Lianshui County had to fall on this person's head. The ancients said that it is better to settle grievances than to settle them, and this personal grievance is really insignificant compared to political gains. Turning enemies into friends is the best way to do it.
Director Zhang said: "Section Chief Li, what happened just now is my fault, I'm just a little hot-tempered, I can't control myself, how offended!" I punished myself with three cups to apologize! ”
Li Yi smiled slightly and said, "Forget it, it's a trivial matter!" There is no need to punish alcohol, but I have a reluctant request, the construction of the Xishan Reservoir in Lianshui County must start as soon as possible, and the embankment must be strengthened before next year's flood season to complete the preliminary work. If this fund is not in place, the reservoir project cannot be continued, and he also asked Director Zhang to approve this money as soon as possible with a stroke of his pen. ”
There are already regulations in the province that this money must be allocated on time, the reason why Director Zhang is embarrassed by Xue Xue and them is nothing more than to get stuck in their necks, first, to get more benefits, and secondly, to let the people below see the majesty of his deputy director, at this moment, he is naturally borrowing the slope to get off the donkey, hehe smiled: "This is easy to say, since it is a family, then don't say two words, this money, I will pass it tomorrow!" ”
Xue Xue and the others were inexplicably surprised, the difficult things that originally seemed hopeless could not be solved, but they were effortless! Xue Xue hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, Director Zhang!" You can do us a great favor in Lianshui County! ”
Director Zhang shook his hand and said: "If you want to thank you, you can thank Section Chief Li, I will accept this love." As he spoke, he glanced at Wang Yang with a smile.
Xue Xue was about to come to thank Li Yi again, and Li Yi smiled: "County Magistrate Xue is too polite. ”
Wang Yang knew that this old fox recognized himself, and he would do it cheaply, haha smiled: "Since you have picked up the words, then everyone is friends!" Why don't we have two tables in one table and have a good drink? ”
Director Zhang was waiting for this sentence, so he could find an opportunity to make friends with Wang Yang, and immediately responded: "This proposal is good!" ”
Naturally, others have no objections.
So, the two tables became one table.
There are many people naturally lively, and there are a few old drunkards present, drinking and persuading the wine are first-class, the atmosphere is gradually warm, and everyone drinks wine to the end of the glass.
Not long after Wen Kejia arrived in Southern Province, not many people knew his identity, and the people here, as well as Li Yi and Wang Yang, knew his details, and even Zhang Xinyi only knew that Wen Kejia was Wang Yang's good friend. The reason why she was with Wen Kejia was deliberately arranged by Wang Yang, and at the same time, she also felt that Wen Kejia was gentle and elegant, with a noble temperament, and it was worth befriending.
So, the cadres and comrades in the hotel all took Wang Yang as the center and toasted him one by one.
Wang Yang smiled bitterly, thinking to himself that you blind people, is it useful to please me? Now there is a son of the secretary of the provincial party committee, a prince of the capital, you don't go to the knot, but find me, isn't this a sacrifice to the end?
But he knew in his heart that Li Yi and Wen Kejia were not the kind of people who were flamboyant, and they didn't dare to break their identities in front of people, so they had to cheer up and deal with it.
Wen Kejia likes Li Yi's character very much, and since Li Yi ridiculed Zhang Xinyi, he no longer paid attention to Zhang Xinyi, and found Li Yi to talk and chat. Li Yi talked about his knowledge, which was extraordinary, and he also had a good impression of Wen Kejia, and he had a heart to make friends, and the two quickly talked about one place.
Tan Jingyi understood her identity, and tried her best to listen and talk as little as possible at the banquet, and gradually she understood that these people were not fuel-efficient lamps, even the fat man Lu Yougui, who laughed the most obscenely, was also the director of a county. She couldn't help but secretly praise Li Yi's communication skills.
Suddenly, Tan Jingyi felt a gaze on her, she quietly glanced at her from the corner of her eye, and saw that the elegant female county magistrate was looking at herself, and she felt a little strange in her heart, thinking to herself, how could she be interested in herself? After careful observation, I found that the female county magistrate was paying attention to Li Yi in addition to looking at herself. Suddenly, I thought to myself that she must have thought that I was Section Chief Li's girlfriend! Thinking of this, a strange feeling crept into my heart. At the same time, with the sensitivity of women, he intuitively felt that there must be a different relationship between this female county magistrate and Section Chief Li.
