Chen Ping arrived at the Crown Hotel early in the evening. Chen Ping asked his secretary Zhang Tao to book the private room in the afternoon. Although Ma Weiguo called Chen Ping to invite him to dinner, it was also the preparations that Chen Ping needed to do.

For Chen Ping, he was actually very clear in his heart. Perhaps in the early stages of reform and opening up, the central government would accept some very young officials in order to change the conservative concepts of local officials as soon as possible, but that was only a temporary measure after all, and in the end they would still return to the normal trajectory of queuing according to qualifications. Otherwise, in the Civil Service Law, how could the period requirement for promotion be stipulated for which level of time it is required? However, this period requirement will produce many variables in actual operation.

As for the current officialdom, Xiao Shufei, a municipal party secretary in her early thirties, was already very young. If her father Xiao Hongkun had not been in charge of the provincial party committee, I would have probably been talking about this.

It is precisely because of this that although Chen Ping had already established great power in Luzhuang with Concubine Xiao Shufei, Chen Ping could only be the deputy mayor at the deputy department level. Therefore, when facing Ma Weiguo, who has become a member of the city and is the fourth-ranked executive vice mayor among the Standing Committee, Chen Ping can be considered half of his subordinate.

Of course, with Chen Ping's current power in Luzhuang, there is no need to be afraid of Ma Weiguo. He is a member of the Standing Committee without the title of Standing Committee. This has long been the consensus of Luzhuang.

However, Chen Ping thought that he was finally in the stage of reforming the nursing home system, and Ma Weiguo clearly opposed it. Chen Ping did not want to cause trouble at this critical moment, so he gave Ma Weiguo a high hat.

It was only at 7:30 in the evening that Ma Weiguo's car appeared at the door of the hotel. Chen Ping had no choice but to touch his nose. It seemed that after the compliment he had on the phone in the afternoon, Mayor Ma really regarded him as his leader. The leader was full of airs and actually stepped on it on time.

But this was just Chen Ping's helplessness. When Chen Ping got up and came to the door to prepare for greeting, he frowned.

Because Ma Weiguo did not come alone, there was a young man behind him.

Since Chen Ping has been working on the restructuring of nursing homes recently, he knows this young man and knows that he is Tang Aihua, deputy director of the Social Department of the Civil Affairs Bureau, who is responsible for nursing homes.

When Chen Ping received a call from Ma Weiguo today, he knew very well that the reason why Ma Weiguo looked for him was nothing more than to reorganize the nursing home. After all, Ma Weiguo voted against this at the temporary work meeting of the Standing Committee.

Now that he asked the Civil Affairs Bureau to start an investigation into the situation of the nursing home, he would definitely not hide it from the executive vice mayor. After Ma Weiguo knew about this situation, there was no reason why he would not come to him.

Since Ma Weiguo understood the content of this dinner tonight, he still brought Tang Aihua to him, it seems that it is not good news.

It seems that Huang Shuping, director of the Civil Affairs Bureau, said it well to him, and Ma Weiguo does have a lot to do with the nursing home.

Chen Ping thought this in his mind, but he did not stop in his footsteps. He still walked quickly to greet Ma Weiguo and asked him hello. Ma Weiguo nodded to Chen Ping, and then said to Chen Ping: "Mayor Chen is sorry, I have something to do temporarily, so I'm delayed, so I'll go to the restaurant to ask for a private room, let's have a meal."

Ma Weiguo's words are a bit too fake. How could he not know that Chen Ping had already booked a private room?

Well, even if he really doesn't know, can he, as the executive vice mayor, come out for dinner, and still have to find a hotel to order a private room by himself? What is his secretary doing?

As Chen Ping expected, Ma Weiguo said this on purpose. He just wanted to act like a leader in front of Chen Ping and reminded Chen Ping that he was still the executive vice mayor and the core leadership group of Luzhuang, and that he should be the first to win the lead in front of Chen Ping.

However, no matter what Ma Weiguo thought, Chen Ping still said: "No need for Mayor Ma. I have already booked a private room first. Mayor Ma just follows me to the private room."

Hearing Chen Ping say this, Ma Weiguo immediately dressed up and said angrily: "Mayor Chen, why are you doing this? Didn't you agree today that I would treat you to a meal? Why did Mayor Chen, you booked a private room first? How embarrassed do you make me!"

If Ma Weiguo's previous words were just a bit fake, then Ma Weiguo's words would be completely disgusting. However, Chen Ping understood that people who were involved in the officialdom were just acting on occasions and pretending in various occasions. Chen Ping has been used to it in the officialdom for several years, so he said: "Mayor Ma is a former leader of Luzhuang and is also my mentor on the road to developing Luzhuang's economy. So it is natural for me, a junior student, to help Mayor Ma book a private room."

Chen Ping said this and wanted to remind Ma Weiguo that he himself is the executive vice mayor of Luzhuang and the leader of Luzhuang's economic development in the past. So at this time, he should not block the road to Luzhuang's reform.

Chen Ping and Ma Weiguo just touched each other without any pain. Ma Weiguo knew that he was a bit too much about this issue when he was entangled with Chen Ping here, so he then said: "I didn't expect that Mayor Chen learned to take action first and then report, and opened the private room for me, so let's go and have a look first."

Ma Weiguo's answer gave Chen Ping a bad premonition, but he couldn't let him think too much at the moment. Then Chen Ping took Ma Weiguo and Tang Aihua to the private room.

While waiting for the food to be served, Ma Weiguo first introduced Tang Aihua to Chen Ping and said, "Mayor Chen, this is Tang Aihua from the Civil Affairs Bureau and my nephew. He has always admired Mayor Chen very much and begged me for a long time. I only brought him to meet Mayor Chen today."

Listening to Ma Weiguo's words, Chen Ping raised his eyebrows. He really didn't expect that Ma Weiguo would throw such a major message to himself as soon as he came up. You should know that in the officialdom, various relative information are the most confidential. Generally speaking, except for the direct relationships such as father and son, other collateral relationships are difficult to know, and not people with particularly close relationships.

It is precisely because of this that few people in the Luzhuang officialdom know this relationship.

However, after Chen Ping heard the news, he could understand why Ma Weiguo opposed the reform of nursing homes so much. It turned out that this relationship was still there, and it seemed that this matter would become difficult to deal with.

Chen Ping thought this way in his mind, and Tang Aihua immediately cooperated to answer Chen Ping after Ma Weiguo finished speaking: "Hello Mayor Chen, I have always admired Mayor Chen very much. I will study every time you speak. I am very surprised by the financing platform you created by Mayor Chen. Today I finally met my idol. Mayor Chen, I will give you a cup, just do whatever you want."

Chen Ping and Tang Aihua clinked the cup and said, "The financing platform is the collective contribution of cadres and comrades in the whole village, not the credit of anyone alone. Moreover, the central government repeatedly declared that individual worship should be strictly prohibited within the party. Section Chief Tang would make political mistakes like this!"

"Thank you for your reminder, I was rash."

After Tang Aihua finished saying this, he raised his glass and drank it all and then lit the bottom of the glass to Chen Ping. As the leader, Chen Ping certainly didn't need to finish it. Just taking a sip, it was already considered giving Ma Weiguo face.

After his nephew and Chen Ping got to know each other, Ma Weiguo said to Chen Ping again: "Mayor Chen, this time I came to Mayor Chen for dinner. In fact, my nephew has some work here. I want to ask you, Mayor Chen."
