Chapter 286
Chen Li and Zheng Wenyuan drove to the restaurant where Zheng Bingyang worked on Jinghai Road. The restaurant was about to close at the time, but there were still many pedestrians on the road. It can be seen that the impact of the SARS epidemic is not as serious as before.
Chen Li and Zheng Wenyuan, both looked like elegant gentlemen, leaning against the front of the Ching Teng's car and smoking a cigarette, but looked at the pair of cool white legs passing by without restraint. It was a secret feeling that the summer in Shangdu is so beautiful, and it looks like two street hooligans, just like whistling at the girls passing by.
Zheng Bingyang, wearing orange striped work clothes, was packing up the guests and leaving the dining table.
"Don't think your sister is very neat in packing dishes, why don't you let your sister be a nanny for me?" Chen Li looked at Zheng Bingyang's familiar movements and joked with Zheng Wenyuan.
"..." Zheng Wenyuan made a move to throw the cigarette butt at Chen Li, and said with emotion, "It's okay to be stubborn as a child, but he's still so strong in his bones, so I can't do anything to her."
"That's because your family has complicated relationships and parents are too determined to break free, and that's all." Chen Li said while smoking.
Zheng Wenyuan glanced at Chen Li and said, "It's not that simple. Do you think others are like you, and can handle their uncles and aunts so obediently? Those of us, the Zheng family, have stronger control than the other, and they can't escape. Now I'm completely disappointed with me, so I let go and ignore me."
As the two of them were talking, Zheng Bingyang finished packing inside and came directly to them: "Look at you for a long time, are you waiting for me?"
"Or who else are you waiting for?" Zheng Wenyuan said with a smile, "I just discussed with Chen Li that if you don't want to work in my place, then go to Xinchaorui Real Estate. Otherwise, when will you save money for air tickets in this restaurant?"
"What's the difference between going to work in your place?" Zheng Bingyang glanced at her brother and said, "There's nothing to do in the school, I'll wait for graduation. I'm now working three jobs. If the air ticket is almost enough, I'll borrow it from Shen Tong first."
"Xinchaorui Real Estate will increase its efforts to promote the market next month, and it needs to temporarily add a group of interns to cooperate with sales. I want to bring Shen Tong in, which is just right for her to cultivate work experience. Don't be a borer at home all day," Chen Li said. "I don't mean to take care of you. The internship salary is only 800, and the rest depends on your performance to get commissions."
"Okay." Zheng Bingyang thought that this was the case. She always needed to get rid of the mercy of her family. She always needed to be strong and independent enough. She also wanted to accept more complicated jobs than working in a restaurant and enhance her social experience. Zheng Bingyang agreed and went back to the restaurant to change her work clothes and asked Chen Li and her brother to wait for her for a while.
Chen Li called Shen Tong to talk about this. Shen Tong became excited and wished he could rush back from Qingquan now.
Chen Li called Qian Da again: "I heard from the real estate company's reaction. You have performed quite well recently. I decided to transfer you to the sales department of Jinlan Manor as deputy manager, and then arrange two young and beautiful sales assistants for you. What do you think?"
"Brother, stop teasing me. I performed well. You were at my house just now, so I didn't expect to praise me and let me stop being nagged by my dad?" Qian Da was not so easy to fool now, and he yawned on the phone.
"When Lao Qian was nagging and scolding you, you threw the appointment letter from the deputy manager of the sales department on his face. Think about it, it would be so majestic." Chen Li smiled.
"Don't come up with such a bad idea. I'm going to throw things into my face. He's making a few illegitimate children outside. I'll have nothing to do with this property in the future," Qian Da was still not sure on the phone, and was a little unsatisfied. He asked, "Can I be the deputy manager in the sales department this time? Otherwise, you can just get it in place and erase the word "deputy" in front of the deputy manager?"
"Don't be too greedy. I have arranged two young and beautiful sales assistants for you!" Chen Li said.
"Go, if you can have such a cheap thing, maybe it's you or someone who colluded with you outside. There is no place to arrange it, so let me watch it for you." Qian Da said.
After hanging up Qian Da's phone call, Chen Li and Zheng Wenyuan laughed and said, "This kid Qian Da is not that easy to fool now."
At this moment, Zheng Bingyang changed his work clothes and put on a light striped sleeveless shirt. His arms were slender and white. He washed his jeans and stretched his legs long and straight. His hair was casually tied with a ponytail, filled with an indescribable atmosphere of youth. He pushed an orange bicycle and walked out of the alley behind.
Zheng Wenyuan was fond of a little girl who looked like a middle school student at this time. She was chasing her and chatting with her. Chen Li ran over and took the bicycle from Zheng Bingyang and was about to put it into the trunk of the car. A young man, who was thirty years younger than him, walked out of the restaurant in a frustration and roared at Zheng Bingyang: "Zheng Bingyang, if you reject me because you have a better choice, I will accept it, but why do you like someone who drives a santana?"
Chen Li looked at the agitated young man in surprise and asked Zheng Bingyang: "What's wrong with driving a Santa? Can't I catch a beautiful woman? I'll change to a regular Santa Naka tomorrow, with the back seat filled with beauties, so that these snobs can see that I can catch a beautiful woman if I drive a Santa Naka."
Zheng Bingyang was both embarrassed and funny, and pushed Chen Li to get in the car quickly, so as not to be embarrassed and let her suitor get entangled.
Zheng Wenyuan has not come back yet, and Chen Li is bored while idle, and talks to the young man through the car window:
"I said brother, don't be angry, pursuing girls, having a house and a car is necessary, but there are still many things to pay attention to. For example, my Bingyang, I'm not as rough and direct as you, you have to play with her. My Bingyang likes European and American classical literature. Do you know that before I officially pursue her, I will understand the personal names, works, and introductions of Shakespeare, Shelley, Tagore within a month. Is it painful? Of course, you can't really read their works foolishly. It's boring and time-consuming. When you finish reading it, Bingyang doesn't know which boy has been taken first by a man who has been reading it.
Then, just remember the name of the person, the title of the work, and the introduction of the work. Remember a few more famous comments. If you can recite one or two paragraphs of the classics, you will live together. For example, my Bingyang Xiaobao is quite strong, which is also a bad habit in her body, but we cannot point it out ruthlessly - if you give gifts, you can't just choose expensive ones, you have to do it by hand. No matter how ugly it is, she is sure to feel happy. In this way, she will give up on my santana instead of other people's Audis or Mercedes-Benz, big brother, let me say another thing, don't feel uncomfortable, just my santana is borrowed from someone else..."
"What are you talking about?" Before Zheng Wenyuan got the contact number of the middle school student, he got into the car and saw Chen Li chatting with a young man in front of the restaurant. Zheng Bingyang held his stomach in the back seat of the car and couldn't hold it in and smiled, and asked strangely.
"I was despised by others to drive this car and I am not qualified to chase your sister. I am teaching this guy about driving a car with a chasing your sister." Chen Li stepped on the accelerator, slowly poured out the car, and said with a smile to Zheng Wenyuan.
"You grandson, can't you change to a more domineering car?" Zheng Wenyuan cursed with a smile, "Every time I take your car, I feel embarrassed."
"It's good to think it's embarrassing. You two can save two dollars of oil when you go back." Chen Li said.
Chen Li drove the car to Zheng Wenyuan's residence, and suddenly saw Zhou Yuan parked the car in front of his building, and got out of the car with a pile of fruits that had just been purchased from the supermarket.
Zheng Wenyuan smiled awkwardly and said to his sister: "Wait for me for a while, I'll talk to Zhou Yuan and let her go back."
"Forget it, either I'll go and live in Chen Li's place," said Zheng Bingyang. As soon as she finished speaking, she saw that her brother's eyes were wide open, and he hurriedly explained, "Chen Li and I are really ordinary friends. I just went to spend a night and drove away the girls in a mess. I don't want to get involved in your mess."
Zheng Wenyuan saw that her sister was talking and laughing all the way back, and it was not suitable to let her sister live with him and Zhou Yuan. It was not suitable to drive Zhou Yuan back so late. She pointed her two fingers in his eyes and signaled Chen Li to him to stare at them.
"We'll go to Qingquan to find Shen Tong, and we'll take Shen Tong back tomorrow!" Chen Li said. He was afraid that Li Meng or He Wan would be blocked at his house now, so how dare you let Zheng Bingyang stay at his house?
…………
…………
The next afternoon, Chen Li drove Shen Tong and Zheng Bingyang back to Shangdu. As soon as he took them to his office, Qian Da ran over with a bitter face and cried, "You called me yesterday, and I turned around and told my dad. In the morning, I just pulled my dad to pick up a Cayenne at the 4S store and drove it up in stock, but I went to find Mr. Li and Mr. Liu at noon. They said they didn't know that's going on. You won't really be teasing me, right? I want to run home like this today. My dad can slame my legs. You can't play with my feelings like this!"
"What's the point of your relationship worth playing with?" Chen Li said with a smile, "I have arranged two beautiful sales assistants, too. Look, are you satisfied?"
"They are you? You're arranging two aunts for me. I just bought a cardio banquet and I have to pick them up and drop them off. I'm a driver again?" Qian Da looked at Shen Tong and Zheng Bingyang, and his disappointed face was less beautiful than before.
"If you don't like it, then you can stay in the real estate company store and continue working. Lao Qian knew that you had lied to him and would not be able to slap your legs, but he would probably smash the Cayenne." Chen Li said with a smile, picked up the landline, called Li Junfeng and Liu Tongjiang, and talked about Qian Da's job transfer, and then asked Qian Da to take Shen Tong and Zheng Bingyang away from him.
Shen Tong and Zheng Bingyang first followed Qian Da for on-boarding training, first solidified the basic skills of the early sales office, and also participated in the marketing planning work of Jinlan Manor.
June passed in a blink of an eye. July 5th was the weekend. Chen Li held a preparatory meeting before the opening of Jinlan Manor at Xinrui City Project Company in the morning. Luo Yiheng called and asked him to have dinner at his home in Hubin Garden in the evening.
In mid-June, Luo Rongmin was officially transferred to the province as vice governor, in charge of civil affairs, agriculture and water conservancy affairs. Luo Rongmin had just arrived at his new job and was very busy. Except for the day he had just been transferred back, Chen Li went to Luo Rongmin's house for a seat. In the blink of an eye, another half month passed.
Luo Rongmin should have served as deputy secretary and mayor of Shangdu City as early as the beginning of last year, and officially entered the provincial and ministerial level. Because of Yinghe's affairs, it took a year and a half. This has had a great impact on officials of this age and this level, but now it is still back on track.
When Chen Li came to the door with a gift, Xi Mingjuan and Shi Yating were preparing supper at home, while Luo Rongmin answered the phone in the study.
Luo Rongmin had just been transferred here, and Xi Mingjuan's job transfer was still half a beat slow. Before the house arranged by the province had been cleaned up, Luo Rongmin lived with Luo Yiheng and Shi Yating for the time being. Chen Li put down his things, rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen to help. Xi Mingjuan insisted on him, so he asked him to scrape the scales.
Seeing Chen Li skillfully remove scales and tails of the fish and remove internal organs, he was obviously a veteran, and Xi Mingjuan and Shi Yating kept praising her.
"Chen Li is twenty-three this year!" Xi Mingjuan asked.
"Have it!"
"You are now at your age, and I haven't seen you get married and have a girlfriend come back and ask me to check it out for you?" Xi Mingjuan cut the chicken diced, while nagging like Shen Jianping, "As for men, although they focus on career, family is also very important. You can't be careless about this matter. Isn't there a saying that starts a family and start a family first to start a career. Now that you have a career, it's important to seize the time to become a family."
"Chen Li is so outstanding and rich now. I don't know how many girls are rushing to queue up. Let's not worry about him," Shi Yating interrupted with a smile, "In the future, ordinary girls will definitely not be able to find a partner in Chen Li."
"Sister Yating, don't joke with me. My mother said, look for a wife. As long as it rains, you can run home. Don't pick it that way." Chen Li said speechlessly.
"This kid!" Xi Mingjuan knew that Chen Li was teasing them and glared at him with anger.
Shi Yating asked blankly: "Your mother's request is quite strange. What does it mean to run home when it rains?"
"It's raining and you know how to run home, just because you're not stupid." Xi Mingjuan said with a smile.
"You little brat, we're fooling around." Shi Yating muttered, "You have a bad attitude, and I won't introduce you to any good girls in the future."
"Who are you going to introduce to Chen Li?" As they were talking, Luo Yiheng and Zhang Haoran walked in at the same time.
"Mom wants to introduce Chen Li to a partner. Chen Li is not upright and even jokes about us. Do you deserve a beating?" Shi Yating said with a smile.
Zhang Haoran has been very familiar with the Luo family for so many years, so he also wants to come in to help prepare dinner together. Xi Mingjuan unveiled him and Chen Li to the kitchen: "You can go outside and wait for dinner, don't cause trouble in the kitchen, you can't even turn around even if you squeeze in the kitchen."
Luo Yiheng greeted Chen Li, Zhang Haoran sat on the sofa in the living room, poured two cups of tea for them, and whispered: "Now Yating has just set rules for me and my dad. No one can smoke at home in the next ten months, so you can just bear it."
Chen Li and Zhang Haoran looked at each other and said with a smile: "Brother Yiheng just took the position of deputy director in the Organization Department, and now he is going to be a father again. Double happiness is coming, you have to drink two more drinks later."
Zhang Haoran looked at Shi Yating in the kitchen, as if she had just been pregnant, and couldn't tell the reason. He lowered his voice and said, "You don't even hire a nanny at home, why do you still let her cook?"
"Haha, Yating's family has hired a nanny. You want to come over. My mother insists on cooking in person, so she gave the nanny a vacation." Luo Yiheng said, unable to hide her excitement.
When Xi Mingjuan prepared the meal in the kitchen, Luo Rongmin came back after finishing his work. After going to the bathroom to wash his face, he said lightly: "It's better to be in Shangdu. If you want to have a meal with you, don't have to be so troublesome. Come on, come here and sit here."
Luo Rongmin greeted Chen Li and Zhang Haoran and walked to the table in the restaurant and sat down: "Yi Heng, do you have any wine at home? Come here for two bottles?"
"I have it!" Chen Li walked to the shoe cabinet at the door, took out two bottles of iron boxes from the gift box on the ground, and put them on the table. "This was what Mr. Zheng from Wanbang brought back from Beijing. Today we happened to try it together."
"Zheng Wenyuan left Wanbang and went to Dashang Capital to serve as the president, and was still adapting?" Luo Rongmin asked.
"I'm quite competent. After he joined the work of the fourth phase fund and the Zhongda Guanlan Venture Capital Fund, Chen Li said, pouring a glass of wine for each of them.
Luo Rongmin nodded and said nothing. Seeing that Xi Mingjuan and Shi Yating brought all the dishes, they began to greet everyone for dinner.
Xi Mingjuan and Shi Yating had limited appetite. After a while, they went to the living room to watch TV, leaving the dining table with Chen Li and the others to continue drinking and talking about things.
"Recently, the province will adjust a group of prefecture-level cadres. Secretary Tian came to me a few days ago and asked me if there were any recommended personnel here. I recommended Haoran. I guess someone from the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department will talk to you in the past few days." Luo Rongmin said calmly.
A trace of excitement burst out in Zhang Haoran's eyes, so excited that he didn't know what to say.
Zhang Haoran is only in his early forties now. This time, he can directly cross the threshold of the deputy prefecture-level city level as a key reserve cadre in the province. His future prospects are limitless, and it may not be impossible to reach the height of Luo Rongmin at this time.
Chen Li knew that Luo Rongmin had just been transferred to the province as vice governor, and he had no say in the adjustment of local and department-level cadres. Secretary Tian of the Provincial Party Committee asked Luo Rongmin to recommend one person. It can be said that Luo Rongmin had delayed a year and a half. He and Luo Yiheng picked up the wine glass and congratulated Zhang Haoran together: "Congratulations to Brother Haoran--"
"This time, the adjustment of local and department-level cadres is relatively large. When Secretary Tian asked me for my opinion, I recommended Haoran to Qingquan as deputy mayor; Secretary Tian also recognized the achievements you made in Shangdong New District during this period, and Secretary Lin also helped him speak. Of course, this also requires Haoran, you are willing to go to Qingquan to do something." Luo Rongmin continued.
"I followed the old leader from Qingquan Coal Industry Group and had a deep affection for Qingquan. I also hope to return to Qingquan and make my own contribution to the construction and development of Qingquan." Zhang Haoran said.
"Chen Li, Haoran is working in Qingquan this time. Xinchaorui should give him more work support. Don't just think about how much convenience can Haoran bring to Xinchaorui when he works in Qingquan." Luo Rongmin said to Chen Li.
Chen Li put down the wine glass and smiled and said, "Uncle Luo, look at what you said, when will I dare to cause trouble for Uncle Luo and Brother Haoran?"
Although Zhang Haoran was transferred to Qingquan with his qualifications, he was only the last deputy mayor in the municipal government and would not have much say, but it was also a very critical step in his career.
There are seventeen cities under the Central Plains Province. In addition to the Shangdu, Luocheng, Qingquan and Yinghe are the most important cities. Needless to say, Luocheng has been replaced with a new municipal party secretary, but Zhou Huaiqing and his group are still strong. As the place where Luo Rongmin rose, Qingquan has a profound influence in Qingquan, and Chen Li is also determined to use Qingquan as a base camp.
Zhang Haoran's transfer to the past position is not only beneficial to Zhang Haoran's future career development, but also has the help of truly standing firmly in the same camp in Qingquan City.
"By the way, if Meng Xuede can be successfully promoted to the secretary of the municipal party committee this time, Brother Haoran will come here this time, so he will strengthen the contact with Meng Xuede, right?" Chen Li asked.
Meng Xuede also came out of the provincial coal system. Although he had not had much involvement with his old man who had been retired for more than ten years, he had some personal relationships with Luo Rongmin. Chen Li didn't know whether Luo Rongmin arranged for Zhang Haoran to work in Qingquan. Should Meng Xuede stand together in Qingquan City or have other arrangements?
"The province has always planned to let Meng Xuede take over as secretary of the municipal party committee, but I don't know what happened during this period. There were more anonymous reports about Meng Xuede suddenly..." The candidate for the Qingquan Municipal Party Committee Secretary was not Luo Rongmin who could get into the mouth at this time, and it was not clear whether Meng Xuede could successfully take over as secretary of the Qingquan Municipal Party Committee. He just told Chen Li some of the situations so that Chen Li would not bet on the wrong bargaining chips when he had any plans in Qingquan.
"Meng Xuede has a good news. Since Qingquan became mayor, several tasks promoted have made good progress. How could this happen?" Zhang Haoran also found it strange.
"..." There were no outsiders in the restaurant. Chen Li told Luo Rongmin what he knew and what Meng Xuede had asked him in private. Zhang Haoran knew, "I guess Fang Long Real Estate, Wanbang and Jiahe Investment were determined to do the Binjiang New City project..."
Chapter completed!
