"Qianzi, are there anyone around you who can rely on?" After chatting for a while, Li Rui asked suddenly.

"Yes, Brother Rui, please give me instructions if you have anything to do." Fang Qiang immediately understood what Li Rui meant and said hurriedly.

In fact, Fang Qiang was not back today, and Li Rui also wanted to call him. After thinking about it, he could only leave it to Fang Qiang to do it. He was really worried about others.

"You must be tight-lipped and flexible, and it is best to be good at being good at it." Li Rui emphasized several more requirements.

Seeing Li Rui's cautious words, Fang Qiang thought about it and nodded heavily and said, "Yes! I have a comrade in my arms. I don't talk much, are smart and have good skills. Brother Rui, if you have any important things, I'll leave them to him!"

"Your comrade-in-arms are also engineers?" Li Rui said with some doubts.

"It's true that the engineer soldiers were special forces before, and they were good at it. When we were in the army, we couldn't beat him up." Fang Qiang said anxiously.

"How could the special forces come to do engineers like you?" Li Rui felt very strange. He had seen Lu Te from the 12th Army and felt very majestic.

"Oh! He was also unlucky." Fang Qiang sighed, "In the past, he served in the provincial capital, and was a special forces directly under the war zone. Once he went on the street to see a hooligan teasing a woman, he went up to stop her and fought. After a few fights, the hooligans were not his opponents. They all fell down in a few strokes. As a result, the leader of the army was said to be the son of a high-ranking official in the province, and he was also discounted. He refused to let go and found the leader of the army. He had no choice but to be transferred to us as an engineer. This was the result of their battalion commander's struggle, otherwise he would have been expelled from the military. In fact, if he didn't care about this nostalgic business, he would have been transferred to a volunteer soldier. He had been with us for more than a year, and later he had a group of retired soldiers with me."

"Is he from Pengcheng? Why have he never heard you talk about it?" Li Rui asked.

"No." Fang Qiang shook his head, "He is from Shandong Province, and he only came last week." As he said that, Fang Qiang sighed again, "I also heard from another of our comrades-in-arms that my hometown is unable to live anymore, and his mother's health is not good. He died as much as me, and his mother pulled him up. The area in their hometown is a mountainous area. Last year, his mother accidentally fell from the mountain to pick herbs, but she didn't treat it well.

He was slid on the bed. He was the only son. When I was sick, I could only take care of him at home, and there was no regular businessman. When I heard about it, I wrote a letter to ask him to take his mother to Pengcheng for treatment. Now his mother lives in the Municipal People's Hospital, and I paid for the medical expenses. After he came, he saw that the hospital was taken care of by a nurse, so he ran to the construction site to work, but he couldn't persuade him. Fortunately, he had been an engineer for more than a year, so he arranged for him to work as a construction worker. He couldn't let him work as a small worker."

"What's his name?"

"Ding Junfeng."

"In this way, aren't you going to have dinner with Xue Feng on the weekend? You'll make an appointment with him after dinner, and I'll meet him." Li Rui pondered. From Fang Qiang's introduction just now, Ding Junfeng was first a filial son, and the second was to repay kindness, which shows that this person is quite good. In addition, he has worked as a special forces soldier, so there is no problem with doing what he thinks of with such a person's mind and skills. So Li Rui changed the idea that he wanted Fang Qiang to convey at the beginning and wanted to meet him in person. If it's appropriate, it would be easy to do something like this person staying around.

After having dinner at Wangjiang Tower with a few friends, Xue Feng and a few friends wanted to go and have fun together, but Xue Mingtang called her home by phone.

Xue Mingtang sat alone in the living room watching the news. Xue Feng called dad, then sat down on the sofa next to him, took out a bag of Soft China from his bag and handed it to Xue Mingtang. Then he turned on a lighter and lit it, and then smoked one himself. Xue Feng knew Xue Mingtang's habits. He didn't like to be disturbed when watching the news and didn't say anything. The father and son were watching the news while smoking. After the news, the cigarette just burned to his butt. Xue Mingtang picked up the remote control and turned off the TV and knocked it out in the ashtray, saying: "Has the construction contract for Tengfei Center been signed?"

Xue Feng hurriedly said: "I signed it. Thanks to Uncle Sun's help this time, Zhao Wenlong and the Hong Kong woman from Tengfei Group were also very happy. She didn't care much about the price, and it went smoothly."

Xue Mingtang nodded and leaned back on the cushion and said, "You did not choose to go into politics after graduating from college, but chose to go into business. I supported your choice in this regard. In the past two years, I don't want to interfere in your business, but I also see you with enthusiasm and expectations for your career. Since you have obtained the construction contract of Tengfei Group this time, I hope you cherish this opportunity, don't just focus on money, and don't make any mistakes. You must learn to make more friends so that your career can last a long time."

"Dad, I understand what you mean. The boss of Tengfei Group is the eldest son of the Zhang family. Although he rarely shows up, I will definitely find a way to establish a relationship with him and strive to become friends."

Xue Feng smiled and lit a cigarette for Xue Mingtang. Xue Mingtang took a sip and spit out a cloud of smoke and said, "Xiaofeng, no matter what we do, we need relationships, and we must understand the principle of taking advantage of the situation. As long as you have a good relationship with Mr. Zhang and become friends, even if I am not in this position, others will also look up to you, and your career will develop well. Of course, you must also grasp the standards and never do illegal things. You must follow the rules of the game and make good use of the rules to be invincible. This cooperation with Tengfei Group is also an opportunity for you, and you must seize this opportunity."

Xue Feng nodded thoughtfully, and at the same time he also showed a hint of regret: "What a pity! This time, Zhao Wenlong was the first to get here. By the way, Dad, there is another news. When I negotiated with them a few days ago, I accidentally heard the Hong Kong woman mention that Li Rui was actually Zhang Zhuoyang's cousin, and he was also a member of the Zhang family."

This news shocked Xue Mingtang, but years of qi cultivation skills did not reveal it in front of his son, and also made him understand why he lost to Guo Wending when competing for the Minister of Organization. It turned out that the person was still shouldering the heavy responsibility of entrusting his or her orphans. No wonder when his son and Li Rui had a conflict, Guo Wending would speak, and no wonder that Tian Qiming, deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, supported Guo Wending.

When Xue Mingtang was in the officialdom, he was naturally very concerned about the situation of the Zhang family, one of the top political families in China. Otherwise, he would not have learned at the first time that Zhang Zhuoyang, the boss of Tengfei Group, was the third generation of the Zhang family.

Li Rui is Zhang Zhuoyang's cousin, but his surname is not Zhang. Compared with the three senior officials of the second generation of the Zhang family, it is easy to judge that Li Rui can only be the son of Zhang Jianguo, the third son of Zhang family, because only he divorced in his early years, Li Rui is the son of him and his ex-wife. But why did he put him in Pengcheng? Is it training? Obviously it doesn't make sense. If a family like this is the key training target of the family, he will usually first serve in the ministry, and at least he will be a deputy department when he reaches a certain level.

The above is then placed in the local area as the top leader of the government or even the party committee. Just like Zhang Jianguo, who started working in the General Office of the CPC Central Committee, was the county magistrate in a county under Mingyang City, Jiangdong Province, and then the county party committee secretary, deputy mayor, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, mayor, and now a member of the Standing Committee of the Jiangdong Provincial Party Committee and secretary of the Mingyang Municipal Party Committee. Li Rui was just a cadre at the section level. He first served as a small deputy director in the Industrial Department of the Municipal Planning Commission. Obviously, it was not training, so the only explanation was to be exiled.

However, even if he was exiled, he was Zhang Jianguo's son after all, otherwise Guo Wending would not have been supported by Zhang's senior official Tian Qiming. Zhang Jianguo was able to entrust his son to Guo Wending, which shows that the relationship between them was obviously extraordinary.

Xue Mingtang made a wrong judgment in a flash. No wonder who would have thought that the father-son relationship between Zhang Jianguo and Li Rui had already become equal.

Xue Feng looked at Xue Mingtang and continued: "This time Zhao Wenlong can cooperate with Tengfei Group to develop, which is Li Rui's line. Li Rui and I are not acquainted. Later, I gave him enough face twice. Yesterday, the Hong Kong woman introduced Nanqiao Second Construction Department to subcontract part of the project from us. At a glance, she knew it was Li Rui's relationship. I gave them 20 million without saying a word. I also asked Li Rui out to gather together through the two bosses of the Second Construction Department."

Hearing his son say this, Xue Mingtang finally showed a gratified smile on his face and nodded, "It's great that you can do this! It means you know what I just told you." As he said that, he did not forget to mention his son: "However, although you and Li Rui don't know each other, this kind of thing should not happen in the future. Stop mingling with those friends outside you will not only do you any good, but be looked down upon. If someone catches your handle, remember that even a small pushpin can pierce your feet."

When it was about to get off work on Saturday, Li Rui called Gao Jie: "Are you free in the evening? Have dinner together."

"It's with Mr. Zhao, Manager Yu and the others again, okay!" Li Rui usually takes Gao Jie to dinner with Zhao Wenlong and Yu Meixia.

"Although I'm having a meal in Huazhongcheng, there are other people who treat me. You know this person too." Li Rui smiled.

"Who?"

"Xue Feng!"

"So it's this little hooligan! Hey, why did he remember to invite you to dinner?" Gao Jie said strangely.

"I don't know, but now they are getting bigger. The chairman of Yunfeng Group has just undertaken the construction project of Tengfei Center."
