Chapter 214 Fulfilling Your Wish (5)

Shuiwanju is located outside the Crescent Building and is a food home in Shazhou's emerging area.

Crescent Building is the highest-end property in Shazhou, and most of the residents are rich. After Shuiwanju opened, its business has been good. In June, the boss of Shuiwan Bureau spent a lot of money to renovate the restaurant and hired two Sichuan cuisine chefs and two Hunan cuisine chefs. The quality of the dishes has also been greatly improved. Therefore, although the renovated Crescent Building is not cheap, its business is still booming.

This boss was also a cadre in the agency before and was once a subordinate of Liu Chuandao. Liu Chuanda became a regular visitor to Shui Wanju. As soon as Liu Chuandao's car stopped, the fat boss personally greeted him at the door and led Liu Chuanda, Zhu Yan and others into the private room.

The drivers of Lao Liu and Liu Guanghua did not follow into the private room and asked for a small table outside.

In recent years, cars in various units have begun to expand, driving schools have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, but the status of drivers has plummeted. In the 1980s and early 1990s, leaders had dinner together, and drivers were habitually sitting at the main table. In the mid-1990s, at the county level, few drivers and leaders were sitting at the same table.

Liu Guanghua's driver was a regular customer. He ran to the kitchen and carefully selected a few special dishes. Then he ordered a pack of Jiaozi cigarettes and sucked the clouds and smog with Lao Liu, free and comfortable.

In the private room, four bottles of big belly sorghum on the table in Kinmen, Liu Chuanda ordered: "Get goblets and implement the basic amount first."

When the secretary Lao Zhao saw Liu conveying this action, he knew that a war was about to begin and suggested: "Mayor Liu, everyone has empty stomachs, eat some food first and then drink."

Liu Chuanda waved his hand and said proudly: "Last time we went to Shanghai together. Secretary Zhu and the three secretary took turns toasting me, so I slept for a day and a night. The Bund and the Oriental Pearl were not considered. Today I want to take revenge."

He was originally a soldier and a full-time cadre. He transferred to Lingxi Provincial Department and served as deputy director of the district committee for one year and two years as the director. He came to Shazhou to serve as deputy mayor. He has always been famous for his hard work and drinking. After being drunk by Zhu Yan in Shanghai, he always wanted to take revenge. Now Zhu Yan fell into the trap and the opportunity for a fair decisive battle has finally come.

A bottle of Golden Gate sorghum can be divided into four cups. Liu Chuanda raised his wine glass, "Here, I wish the 500,000 tons of cement factory to settle in Yiyang, and it's done." He drank the two or five taels of sorghum wine in one mouthful, then gently placed it on the table, looking at Zhu Yan with a smile.

Zhu Yan also did it in one fell swoop. He poured the wine glass over, and there was only a drop of wine hanging on the mouth of the wine glass. This is Shazhou's habit. You have to drink it in one sip, and when you flip the wine glass, if three drops of residual wine can be dripped out, you will be punished for wine.

Although the sorghum of Kinmen was of high magnitude, it tasted good. Hou Weidong drank it all in one sip. Then he gave the cup to Secretary Zhao.

After drinking this glass of wine, a warm feeling immediately spread throughout his body. Hou Weidong's expression completely relaxed and said to himself: "Mayor, county party secretary, when he listened to the instructions from afar, he felt that they were unattainable. Now he has contacted from time to time and found out that they are also flesh and blood people."

Liu Chuanda seemed to be half drunk and half awake, saying, "Old Zhu has achieved remarkable results in Yi Yang. This time, your voice is very high."

According to the rules of Shazhou City over the years, one of the deputy positions in each government was promoted by the county secretary. Yiyang County, Wuhai County, Linjiang County and Chengjin County each have their own advantages. In terms of comprehensive strength, Zhu Yan is a little better. It is just that the promotion of officials is a comprehensive factor and is not subject to personal will.

Zhu Yan quickly said modestly: "Shazhou has developed rapidly in recent years, and many young talents have emerged. I am a backward person. How can I do this matter?"

Liu Chuanda laughed, his hair stood upright, and every pore seemed to be smelling alcohol. He picked up the wine glass again and said, "This glass of wine, I wish you success in the next year's election."

After drinking four bottles of wine, everyone became drunk. The 60-degree white wine will burn, and it will be drunk into the stomach, seep into the blood, and quickly bring the wine into every cell.

Secretary Zhao was in his thirties and had a bit arrogant attitude. After drinking, his mouth was filled with a smile. He put one hand on Hou Weidong's shoulder and whispered: "Brother Hou is only in his twenties. He is so young. If I were at this age, I must fight for it. Now it is thirty-six and there are not many opportunities."

"Mistress Zhao, I will take care of me more in the future."

"It's easy to say."

While talking, Hou Weidong took a look at Liu Chuanda from the corner of his eye. Liu Chuanda was having a serious conversation with Zhu Yan and did not notice the conversation between the two.

After four bottles of wine were gone, Liu Chuanda saw that Zhu Yan had not yet fallen down, so he asked for another bottle of Wuliangye. After this bottle, Secretary Zhao covered his mouth and ran into the bathroom.

Although Liu Chuandao did not fall, his words were not very straightforward.

"Drink with Secretary Zhu, please feel good." His tongue began to turn around and said, "The cement plant project must be implemented. In addition, there is another project this year, which was taken down by the province. We are planning to build a brewery in Shazhou area. Is Yi Yang interested in doing this project?"

Zhu Yan's eyes shone brightly when he heard this. He grabbed Wuliangye and poured out all the remaining wine. "Mayor Liu, you are the leader at work, and you are the brother in private. Let's drink this bottle of wine together."

Four people have five bottles of wine, and they are very enjoyable.

Hou Weidong found that Zhu Yan was still very steady and said to himself: "Zhu Yan is really good at drinking. Today, Liu Chuanda did not take advantage."

After getting into the car, Zhu Yan waved his hand and said, "I won't go back to Yi Yang today. I haven't been home for several months. Let's go home to see me."

Amid the roar of the car, Zhu Yan fell asleep in a short while. Hou Weidong also seemed to sleep but not sleep. He squinted his eyes on the back of the chair. He mocked himself: "Dayu passed by the house three times to control the flood, but did not enter. I accompanied the county party secretary through the house but did not enter." He took out his cell phone and changed it to a vibration state so as not to disturb Zhu Yan's rest.

Lao Liu heard Zhu Yan's even snoring and said, "Miss Hou, how much wine have you drunk?"

"Five bottles of wine for four people."

"Secretary Hou has a good alcohol tolerance and is still energetic now."

"I'm also holding on."

On the road from the car to Lingxi Province, Hou Weidong tied his seat belt and fell asleep soon. When he woke up, he had arrived at a small farmyard.

Zhu Yan was still sleeping, Hou Weidong got out of the car and was hesitating whether to wake Zhu Yan up. An old man with gray hair and a normal floral shirt walked out of the room. Judging from his temperament and dress, he was obviously not a rural person.

Lao Liu warmly greeted him and said, "Aunt Zhang, Secretary Zhu sleeps in the car, we didn't wake him up." He sighed, "Secretary Zhu is the leader of Yiyang County. He is busy every day. I drank with the leader today, and I really can't bear to wake him up."

Lao Liu pointed at Hou Weidong beside him again and said, "This is the new Secretary Hou." Hou Weidong called politely: "Aunt Zhang."

Aunt Zhang greeted Hou Weidong and said, "It's not okay for Zhu Yan to sleep in the car, so she should help her upstairs and go to bed to sleep."

Hou Weidong opened the back door and whispered: "Secretary Zhu, you're home." After shouting several times, Zhu Yan opened his eyes. His eyes were red, and he said: "You're home so soon?"

Zhu Yan's body shook a little when he got out of the car, so Hou Weidong held his arm and helped him into the bedroom on the second floor.

This is a rural house renovated. The yard is full of flowers and the room has obviously been redecorated. The decoration style is simple, with almost no decoration and whitewashed walls. The room upstairs has wooden floors. The windows are not common in the countryside, but colorless glass. Zhu Yan's room has large rows of bookcases.

After helping Zhu Yan to bed, Hou Weidong turned on the air conditioner to twenty-seven degrees. Just as he was about to go downstairs, Aunt Zhang walked in with honey water. Seeing that her son was so drunk, she said with pain: "Zhu Yan is also in his forties. How can he drink like a young man? Xiao Hou, you should remind him more in the future."

Zhu Yan's hair was messy and he fell asleep on the bed, snoring from time to time. Zhang Jie tried the temperature of the air conditioner, took out a thin sheet from the cabinet beside the bed and put it on Zhu Yan's chest and abdomen.

"It's really not worry-free for such a big person."

In the eyes of mothers, sons will never grow up.

Several people came down to sit in the living room on the ground floor watching TV. Aunt Zhang saw that Hou Weidong was also drunk and said, "Xiao Hou has also drunk a lot, so you might as well go upstairs to rest. This farm house has seven or eight houses."

Hou Weidong said: "Aunt Zhang, I don't need to rest, just watch TV here."

Aunt Zhang was very talkative and said, "Before retirement, I wanted to live in the countryside. The air was good and I could grow my own vegetables. It was environmentally friendly and fresh."

"This house belongs to my cousin. His family has been in Zhuhai as the boss. He knew that I had always wanted to live in the countryside. Before leaving in 1992, he gave the house to our couple. This house is good, and it will be a villa after a simple decoration."

At this time, an old man in his seventies, carrying a fish basket, his face and arms were darkened. He saw the car in the yard, "Boss is back? He has a good time today. I caught seven or eight kilograms of crucian carp."

Lao Liu had already stood up, "Old man, I have gained a lot today." He introduced to Hou Weidong: "This is Secretary Zhu's father, and we all call him the old man."

Hou Weidong also shouted: "Old man."

The old man laughed and said, "Why did Zhu Yan change his secretary again? This kid has a very high vision. When he was young, he was a secretary, and I don't think so."

Aunt Zhang mentioned the fish basket, looked at it, and smiled and said, "Jing Yatou and her classmates are coming back for dinner. Old man, you and me will clean up the fish."

The old couple went to the kitchen to talk and laugh, and then Lao Liu took the time to introduce: "The old man used to be an old leader of the Provincial Planning Commission, and Aunt Zhang was a teacher at the University of Finance and Economics. After retirement, she came to live a pastoral life."

Hou Weidong said intimately: "Secretary Zhu's mother is a university teacher, no wonder he has a faint bookish aura."

The smell of fish soup came quickly in the kitchen, and a crisp laugh sounded from outside the house, "Grandma, why are you eating fish again tonight? I'm tired of it."
