Little Life on An American Ranch Chapter 166

  Chapter 166 Power

   I have to say that Xu Guanning deserves to be a member of the officialdom, so he speaks in a way, and his words are quite humorous, but this kind of humor reveals a very strange atmosphere of Jian Heng.

   After sitting down and chatting for about ten minutes, Xu Guanning answered a phone call.

After getting through, I saw him say: "It's on Qiaoge Road, you go in, um, go straight ahead and pass a few small forks and you will see Liu San Roasted Chicken. We are downstairs in the lobby on the first floor Li... um, um, there are me, Jian Heng and Siwei, you can see us when you come in, okay, I'll wait for you".

   After finishing speaking, he put down the phone, and said to Jian Heng: "Xu Yinqun's family, you just started playing at their boss's house. You are on your way, and you will be there soon."

  He said that, but Xu Guanning thought in his heart: You, Xu Yinqun, aren't you a cow, why did I send a photo and you came here?

I have to mention here that Jian Heng's knowledge of domestic car films is limited to serial numbers such as 888 and 999. He doesn't know that some license plates are not leopards or serial numbers, but those with this license plate There is often a certain social status behind it. To put it bluntly, there are some license plates that you can't buy if you want to.

This is the case for the license plate on the 400 that Jian Heng drove over. If Jian Heng doesn't know it, it doesn't mean that Xu Guanning, a person who is bent on officialdom, doesn't know it. Moreover, Shanghai is not far from the provincial capital, a few hours' drive away. Those who are in politics are never afraid of having a wide network of contacts, and they are not afraid of being far away. They may use them someday.

To be honest, Xu Guanning was able to come in and sit down to eat with Jian Heng, mostly because of the face of the license plate. As for the Mercedes-Benz 400, it can make him jealous, but it is not to the point of trying to curry favor. In his eyes, the businessman is Businessman, even if you are as big as Ma Yun, I will ignore you if I ignore you. My political life is always based on business and business.

   "Isn't he busy?" Sun Siwei said with a smile.

Xu Guanning said: "A person's body in Gongmen does not only belong to him. Lao Xu went to their boss's house to help with work today. I heard that he had a dinner at the boss's house. No, he worked for a long time. Don't you want to take a rest early, so you should let yourself go!"

  Sun Siwei listened to what he said, smiled and did not speak.

On Jian Heng's side, he glanced at Xu Guanning inadvertently. Jian Heng is also a mixed crowd in the United States, and he pays attention to the tone of a person's speech. Xu Guanning's words are not only explaining for Xu Yinqun, but there may be no nails buried in it. the meaning of.

  Sun Siwei's mind was a little more simple after all, but Jian Heng listened to the meaning half or half of it.

Both Xu Guanning and Xu Yinqun were admitted as civil servants. One was in the provincial party committee and the other was in the municipal party committee. It seemed that Xu Guanning was taller, but in fact Xu Yinqun was more prestigious, because the status of the municipal party committee in the provincial city was there. Well, Xu Yinqun's side is highly valued by the bosses. According to the news, he will be promoted to a full-time department soon, while Xu Guanning's side has just been promoted from a section member to a sub-section, and the leader treats him only averagely.

  It is impossible for the two to have no rivalry, and when the classmates get together, these two will steal the initiative at the dinner table.

   "Boss, another chicken!" Sun Siwei stretched out his hand and said to the boss.

   Today, Sun Siwei was so happy that no one would take care of him when he was eating. I managed to get everyone to have a meal today, and everyone's necks are twisted like giraffes, why are all of them free now? What a powerful eye!

  The boss hurried over when he heard this: "Then you come to watch the chicken with me?"

   "Pick a bigger one, and you don't need to look at it. Someone will come soon, and another bottle of sea blue." Sun Siwei felt that he was in a great mood, and even spoke a little louder.

  Xu Guanning looked at Sun Siwei and smiled without speaking.

At this moment, Xu Yinqun had already arrived at the door. He walked forward, found a place to stop the car, went back to the door, and took a closer look at the big Mercedes driven by Jian Heng. Like Xu Guanning, he was very concerned about the big car. Ben cared far less than he cared about the license plate.

After looking at it for a while, I took a random photo, and then sent it to my classmates in college. He is also a civil servant, but he is not like Xu Yinqun. His family originally ate this bowl of rice, and his level is also at most. In another year and a half, he will secure a deputy position, which is a big step faster than Xu Guanning.

   After sending out the message, Xu Yinqun walked into the house and met the shop owner at the door.

   "How many are you?" The boss saw the faint official authority on this man, and the smile on his face widened.

  Xu Yinqun glanced at the boss from the corner of his eye, just took a look, and quickly took it back: "My friend is already inside."

   "Then please!" The boss quickly reached out to help Xu Yinqun open the door.

   Just as Xu Yinqun raised his foot to enter the door, the phone rang with a ding.

  Xu Yinqun directly took out his phone and opened it to look at it. On WeChat, he saw a sentence from his classmate: Damn, your classmate is awesome, I know this one!

  Xu Yinqun's heart felt hot, and he turned back casually: Who?

  The classmate quickly replied to him: I told you that you don't even know each other. This big boss who wants to help your bureau has no major problems in his next step!

  Wow! This sentence directly stunned Xu Yinqun, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart to help our big boss, big boss! I rely on! How could Jian Heng, a street-crawler, know such a big guy.

  Xu Yinqun didn't know, but Jian Heng and He Ye knew each other

The boss was holding the chicken with one hand and holding the door with one hand, and kept holding the door for Xu Yinqun. Seeing that Xu Yinqun's face was like a kaleidoscope, turning white and red for a while, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart: What's wrong with this guy? , Why does his face look like he opened a paint shop.

   "Hey! Hey!" The boss couldn't bear it anymore, and directly reminded Xu Yinqun in a low voice.

  Recovering himself, Xu Yinqun gave the boss a rare smile, took a long breath, calmed down, and then walked in.

  Standing in the room and turning his head, he found Jian Heng and the three of them. It was not easy for him not to see, because now Sun Siwei was talking to Xu Guanning, the voice was a bit loud, but it was not a quarrel.

  With a smile on his face, Xu Yinqun walked over: "It's so lively, what are we talking about?"

   "Let's talk about when will you mention the deputy office?" Xu Guanning said with a smile.

  Seeing Xu Yinqun approaching, Jian Heng stepped inside and gave up his original seat to Xu Yinqun who had just arrived.

Xu Yinqun bent down and put down the handbag in his hand, then sat down and asked Jian Heng: "When did you arrive? It's too hasty. Say hello earlier, so I can go to the airport to pick you up." Go, although our car is only around a hundred thousand, but we are the economic base, you can't dislike it, can you?"

   "It's a temporary decision, and the car doesn't belong to me. I'm just a broken pickup in the United States. I borrowed it from a friend who has a company in Shanghai." Jian Heng quickly explained.

  Xu Guanning praised it: "It's a kind of face to borrow such a car these days, I can't borrow it!"

  Xu Yinqun smiled, and a clever waiter brought him a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

In the following time, they ate and chatted together. Both Xu Guanning and Xu Yinqun were mixed with politics, and they were not stupid enough to ask Jian Heng about the owner of the car outside. Now they are asking and answering, The cooperation is very tacit, and the talk is mainly about the three years of junior high school.

   It is reasonable to say that when the classmate reunion mentioned the things at that time, there was always some emotion, because at that time we were all teenagers in the 14th Five-Year Plan period, and we didn't have so much scheming.

  It's a pity that Jian Heng doesn't feel this at all now. On the contrary, the more he hears them talk about it, the more upset he becomes.

   "How is Xu Mei doing now?" Xu Guanning looked at the opportunity and asked Jian Heng.

  Xu Mei and Xu Guanning are cousins ​​and nephews, that is, Xu Mei is Xu Guanning's aunt. Of course, this is based on seniority. In fact, the two are of the same age, and such things are not uncommon in large rural families. When I was in school, my classmates didn't make fun of it because of this incident. At that time, Jian Heng was the uncle that other classmates called him, because Jian Heng and Xu Mei just played better, and there was so much love between them. A little ignorant, but never the kind that makes it clear.
