Chapter 6 Signals

After Li Fengzi left, officials came to visit one after another. Wang Siyu was really busy for a while, and the office was not cleaned until before get off work.

He was packing his office utensils, and the ringtone of his cell phone suddenly rang. Wang Siyu looked at the number and it turned out to be called by Chen Qiming. He frowned and answered, and said softly: "Hello, Minister Chen."

Chen Qiming said 'um' and said lukewarmly: "Secretary Wang, how do you drink this wine tonight?"

Wang Siyu smiled slightly, got up and walked to the window, and said lightly: "Of course, it's the guest who follows the host."

Chen Qiming touched his hair and smiled and said, "Weiguo means to follow the rules and let all the Standing Committee members be present and welcome you, but I didn't agree."

Wang Siyu nodded and said softly: "Minister Chen, then listen to you..."

Chen Qiming laughed heartily and said leisurely: "It's boring to drink with them. Let's do this. Let's talk about heroes by cooking wine at night."

"Okay, I have no objection." Wang Siyu hung up the phone, but was thinking secretly that when he wanted to talk about heroes by cooking wine, his current situation was really like Liu Xuande who was living under someone else's roof.

Nowadays, Weibei is naturally the world of Chen and Tang families. If you do it well, you will just get into Princess Iron Fan’s belly and you can make some noise. If you don’t do it well, you will easily be caught by others.

However, it is of course a good thing to have the opportunity to contact the two individually. He can observe the quality of the two alliances up close, whether they are as unbreakable and impeccable as they appear.

More than ten minutes later, he got off the stairs, came to the front yard, got on Chen Qiming's car, and the three of them arrived at Ziyunlou Hotel in Yinpu District. After getting off the bus, accompanied by the hotel manager, he took the elevator to the private room on the tenth floor...

After ordering the dishes, Chen Qiming took a cigarette, took out a lighter, lit the fire with a 'da', frowned and took a sip, turned his eyes to Tang Weiguo, and said with a smile: "Weiguo, I haven't seen Xiaoxue for a while. Are you two having a quarrel?"

Tang Weiguo took off his suit, hung it on a leather chair, rolled up his cuffs, and smiled and said, "No, she has a special task and is going out for half a year. Why? Didn't Sister Lulu mention it to you?"

Chen Qiming sighed, waved his hand, and said frowningly: "Lulu has returned to the devil's capital with anger. I am now alone and I don't like anything."

Wang Siyu touched the cup, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "No wonder I was in the Organization Department last time. I heard that you were furious. It turned out that I was not happy..."

Chen Qiming smiled and nodded, "It's a bit, but don't gloat, we both deal with you later."

Tang Weiguo waved his hand and said calmly: "Brother Qiming, it seems that he is not sure. Secretary Wang is famous for being able to drink. At least he has never encountered an opponent in the West China officialdom."

Wang Siyu's heart thumped and said calmly: "Mayor Tang, you are well-informed."

Tang Weiguo nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Secretary Wang is the latest star in the West China officialdom and has a reputation. I just heard of it."

Wang Siyu smiled and said softly: "**Not to be a new star, the two are the real people. I am too far apart. I have to study humbly in the future."

Chen Qiming also laughed and said half-jokingly: "Three, maybe we were really made into dumplings. This guy wants to play with pigs and eat tigers. Last time he said he had three cups and almost fell for a fool..."

When Tang Weiguo saw the waiter enter the house, he didn't say anything. He didn't touch the bottle until the wine and food were brought up like flowing water, poured the wine, and said with a smile: "Secretary Wang, welcome you to work in Luoshui."

Wang Siyu smiled slightly, picked up the wine glass, nodded and said, "Okay, I will also offer the Buddha with flowers and offer a cup to you."

The three of them clinked the glass and drank it all in one go. Chen Qiming put down the glass, picked up the dish, and said with a smile: "Weiguo, Secretary Wang is a very talented official. I have a premonition that you will have an opponent this time."

Tang Weiguo smiled faintly and said softly: "Brother Qiming, opponents and friends are sometimes difficult to define. Maybe in a few years, I will work with Brother Wang to fight with Brother Chen. The officialdom is changing rapidly. Who can tell the future things clearly..."

Chen Qiming played with the wine glass, a hint of loneliness appeared in his eyes, and nodded and said, "Yes, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests, and many things are involuntary."

Wang Siyu savored the conversation between the two and felt a little delicious, so he turned his head, looked at Tang Weiguo, and said with a smile: "Mayor Tang, we focus on cooperation and do not engage in confrontation, especially after clarifying the functional positioning of the deputy secretary, it is more conducive to avoiding conflicts. On this point, we also have to thank Minister Chen."

Tang Weiguo smiled slightly, hugged his shoulders with his hands, and said softly: "Secretary Wang, I have the same opinion. As long as I strengthen communication, I will definitely reach a consensus. If I want to achieve results, I cannot undermine each other. That will not be good for everyone, right?"

Wang Siyu nodded, picked up the wine glass, and smiled and said, "It makes sense, Mayor Tang, come, let's clink the glasses, I hope we will have a happy cooperation in the future..."

"Okay, refreshing." Tang Weiguo nodded, touched the cup, and said with a smile: "As long as you look forward, you can always find the basis for cooperation. I believe that we will cooperate very happily."

The two of them hit the cups, Tang Weiguo took a bowl of turtle soup, placed it in front of Wang Siyu, and said with a smile: "Secretary Wang, I am not surprised that you can come to Weibei. Unlike Brother Qiming who came to Weibei, I was really surprised and felt very stressed."

Chen Qiming laughed and waved his hand, "Weiguo, I, the extreme leftist, are not popular anywhere, so I have to come to Weibei. We have different ideas, but it does not hinder cooperation. Please rest assured about this."

Tang Weiguo just smiled and said nothing.

Wang Siyu touched the soup spoon and took a sip of the turtle soup. He only felt that the taste was particularly delicious, so he smiled and said, "Mayor Tang, what are the differences in your ideas?"

Tang Weiguo put a pair of chopsticks on the dining table, one to the left and the other to the right, and smiled and said, "Brother Qiming is too radical and always thinks about turning the right turn signal light and turning left. If those things fail, there will be trouble..."

Wang Siyu nodded slightly, glanced at Chen Qiming, and said thoughtfully: "Yes, you can't follow the old path, that's not good."

Chen Qiming raised his brows, waved his hand, and said with a serious expression: "Continue to the right, it can only intensify the contradictions. No matter how majestic the palace built on the sand pile is, it will eventually collapse one day. Moreover, the current economy has the elements of false prosperity. It is better to say that it is transferring wealth than creating wealth. Many local governments have sold out their land and it is difficult to maintain development. If they do not wake up in time, problems will arise sooner or later."

Wang Siyu smiled, rubbed his hair, nodded and said, "It makes sense, it should be taken seriously..."

Tang Weiguo waved his hand, poured the wine, picked up the cup, frowned and said, "It's not that serious, it's generally good. As long as we can maintain the current growth trend and continue to move forward, there is no contradiction that cannot be overcome."

Chen Qiming sighed, waved his hand, and said impatiently: "Weiguo, forget it, don't argue anymore. We can't reach an agreement on this topic. Time will prove who is the right party."

Tang Weiguo smiled faintly and nodded, "Okay, we can't convince each other, and it doesn't make sense to argue any more."

"Drinking, drinking, there is a rare opportunity to relax, so that ** can stay away from the table." Wang Siyu smiled, but sighed in his heart. Three people, three thoughts. In his opinion, if there is no reform within the system, I am afraid that no matter whether I turn left or right, I will not be able to resolve the substantial contradiction...

But the question is, who will cut the knife at himself?

At eight o'clock in the evening, the three of them left the hotel drunk and took a car home.

Along the way, Wang Siyu recalled the scene in the hotel, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if Tang Weiguo was at the dinner table, intending to distance himself from Chen Weiguo and show kindness to him.

This signal is very important. It may be that Chen Qiming's arrival in Weibei caused dissatisfaction from Tang Weiguo, or that the two alliances only reached a consensus at the top level and did not obtain all the following understandings.

Another possibility is that Tang Weiguo was throwing a stone to ask for directions, seeking reconciliation with the Yu family, and by the way, putting pressure on the Chen family to fight for some unknown benefit.

In short, the content of this meal is very rich. You have to savor it carefully and continue to observe before you can chew it out.

On the other hand, Chen Qiming's performance seemed to be strange. He took advantage of his time to come to Weibei to limit the power of the deputy secretary. Although he restricted himself, he could easily offend a large number of subordinate officials...

This one-size-fits-all approach is very likely to cause dissatisfaction among the deputy secretary of the party committees of cities, districts, counties, and even townships to experience dissatisfaction. Taking such a big risk just to hit oneself, it seems that there is no need for this.

It is always a bit far-fetched to say that he had not thoughtful before, or that Chen Qiming was stubborn and arrogant. Although he was so arrogant, he was also an extremely powerful person and should not have ignored this.

Perhaps, Chen Qiming's move has other profound meanings, but he just can't understand it now.

No matter what, Weibei is their territory now. No matter how hard it is on both sides, Wang Siyu is optimistic. After all, those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes. On many issues, Wang Siyu is much more relaxed and much more calm than the two of them.

With his eyes set on the car window, Wang Siyu was suddenly attracted by a magnificent building in front of the left. It was a tall church, imitating the medieval French Gothic building, red brick walls, white stone pillars, blue-gray stone tiles roof, two bell towers, facing north and south, towering into the clouds.

Looking at the high cross above the church, Wang Siyu sighed softly and remembered Ning Lu. From Chen Qiming's conversation just now, it seems that it is inferred that the relationship between the couple is not very good. Perhaps that is a common problem in marriage, and Ning Lu's love for Christianity should also have the meaning of escaping reality.

When I returned home, I sat on the sofa drinking tea and tutored Yaoyao to learn English words. I inadvertently raised my head, but I saw the door of the second floor bathroom being gently pushed open, and Liao Jingqing walked out of it.

She was wrapped in a pink towel on her head, wearing a white suspender skirt, two slender straps tied to her snow-white shoulders, and her shiny breasts were mostly naked outside. Such a fragrant and gorgeous outfit is extremely rare.

Wang Siyu took a look and was a little panicked. He quickly turned his eyes away. It was not until Liao Jingqing returned to the bedroom that he sighed, got up and went to the study. After reading the English version of the desert sweet spring, he felt absent-minded, so he touched a wolf pen, dipped it in ink, and pondered for a moment, and wrote on the rice paper: "It's useless to say that lovesickness is useless, it's not bad to be melancholy."

After stopping the pen, he sighed for a while. Wang Siyu put the brush on the inkstone and turned to the bathroom. When he took a shower and returned to the study, he found that there was a line of beautiful small characters under the rice paper, which read: "Your Mingzhu has tears, and I wish you would meet again when you were not married."
