Chapter 26 Chapter 26 The best way for me

The next day the tiger went to burn incense, and when he came back, he got the news that Section Chief Zhao, who was in charge of tax inspection, came to check the tax. Gu Xiaoxiao hesitated for a while and said: Brother Hu, paying taxes is not a simple matter. According to the national business tax collection system, if you actually pay, then the burden may not be clear, because we are just like an intermediary businessman, a lot of sales tax We are not the only ones who earn profits, but we pay their taxes and fees. We should identify this part of the tax amount and take a reasonable tax avoidance measure, so that the country has no loss and we have no trouble.

The tiger frowned and said, "I don't know anything about this matter, why don't you go and do it?" Gu Xiaoxiao said: But the other party specified that they want to see you. Tiger said: Why does he see me as a tax collector?He and I are basically two-way people. Gu Xiaoxiao said: You must not use your status as a big brother in the world to associate with these people. They are members of the government and they will not accept your style at all. Tiger said: You misunderstood me, I mean there is nothing to talk nonsense with these people, and it is not speculative to say that the way is different.

Gu Xiaoxiao said: There may be a distance between heart-to-heart talks, but talking about wine should be about the same. This kind of person can't be offended, just send him away properly. Tiger said: I don't drink with this kind of person. Gu Xiaoxiao said: You set up a dinner, and I will accompany them to drink. I have often encountered this kind of entertainment in the past, and I am familiar with it. The tiger laughed and said: Why are you such a philistine girl? Gu Xiaoxiao said: Brother Hu, I did my best for you, but in the end I didn't get a good word from you. The tiger laughed and said: "Okay, I was wrong, you arrange the dinner, I'm so lazy and annoying."

In the evening, a group of people held a "hero meeting" in the "Lengyue Qianqiu" restaurant. There were more than a dozen people sitting in the largest box. In a good mood, he said: This is the first time I have met Boss Zhuang, but I have admired your name for a long time. Tiger smiled and said: I dare not admit this. In the past, I was young and energetic, and I took many detours. After I came back, thanks to the help of many friends, I made it to today. But the future will depend on Section Chief Zhao. helped. Chief Zhao patted Tiger on the shoulder and said: Don't say anything, everything is in the cup, as long as the friendship is reached, the cup will not be poured.

After finishing speaking, he took out twelve small wine glasses, twisted them on the table and poured them one by one, saying: This is called a dragon, and the owner of the village is a dragon in luck after drinking it. Just as the tiger was about to speak, Gu Xiaoxiao who was next to him said: Our boss has to stay awake to chat with Section Chief Zhao. I drank this wine for the boss. After finishing speaking, he raised his wine glass and saluted Section Chief Zhao, and drank all twelve glasses of wine in one breath, without changing expression or heartbeat, Section Chief Zhao clapped his hands and said, "Okay, the general manager invited by Boss Zhuang is indeed a comprehensive high-quality talent." ,I admire you.

After all, he poured twelve glasses of wine and drank them all in one go. The people at his table applauded loudly. With his face flushed, Section Chief Zhao swayed from the chair with the wine glass in his hand, walked around the tiger and walked to Gu Xiaoxiao's side and said: "Miss Gu, you're a woman who won't give way to a woman, come and have another drink with me." The tiger heard that his tone of voice was wrong, and his face would get angry when his face changed. Gu Xiaoxiao gestured to press his shoulder to signal him not to mess around, but it seemed to outsiders that she helped the tiger to stand up, and said: You are a dignified section chief, You don't dare to toast my wine, I'll toast you a glass.

Someone at the table jokingly said: Otherwise, drink a cup of wine, so that no one will suffer. Section Chief Zhao laughed as soon as he heard it: It's not good to do this, after all, she is a little girl. The man said: There is no size on the wine table, besides, girls nowadays like mature men, so who can say anything on the wine table. The more the tiger heard it, the more angry his heart became. Chief Zhao said: Miss Gu, it depends on whether you give me this face or not. Gu Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, grinned and was about to speak, the tiger said: "Wait a while, I'll drink this glass of wine with you."After finishing speaking, he snatched the cup from Gu Xiaoxiao's hand, raised his neck and drank the wine, and smashed it on the table with a bang, the atmosphere immediately became awkward.

Section Chief Zhao coughed dryly and said: Since Boss Zhuang has already drunk too much, how about this?Xiao Yang goes to pay the bill, don't let people gossip. A tall, thin man wearing glasses just stood up, and said with a tiger's face: "Today is my treat for dinner, whoever pays for it will not give me face, you'd better sit back, the price of a meal is nothing." Xiao Yang looked at both sides, and didn't know who to listen to. Section Chief Zhao said drunkenly: Boss Zhuang, who are you attacking? The tiger stood up slowly and Gu Xiaoxiao hurriedly smoothed things over and said: Chief Zhao, don't get angry, our boss drinks and drinks, he has no other intentions, so don't worry too much.

The tiger gently pushed her aside and said: I never let women do things for me.After finishing speaking, he said to Section Chief Zhao with a tigerish face: You may not be as old as me, we are all men, and I probably know what you are thinking, but all the employees here are my company's employees, no one is more senior than you Low, so it’s best to respect others. I know you are all adults, but adults have to be reasonable. If an ordinary person said something like this in front of me today, he would have been lying here long ago, but even if I told Zhao Ke To save face, if you really want to play with women outside, I will find you any amount of money, but don't slap me in the face.

Seeing that the tiger was serious, Section Chief Zhao immediately withered and said, "Boss Zhuang, don't be angry, we are all friends, and I'm also showing off wine, just pretend I didn't say these words, and everyone continue to drink." The turmoil stopped like this. After the banquet, Shunzi and others excused themselves to leave. Tiger also drank a lot of alcohol. He didn't drink much, and he was already in dire straits at the moment. Gu Xiaoxiao said: "If you can't drink, drink less. Why are you so forceful?" Woolen cloth? The tiger said: I'll make these grandchildren look down upon me, and it won't matter if I add another two catties.

Gu Xiaoxiao poured him a cup of tea and said: Hearing what you said, you know that you really drank too much. You can drink two catties of water now, which is not bad. The tiger picked up the cup and it fell to the ground. Gu Xiaoxiao had no choice but to pour another cup of tea and feed him a sip. After that, he helped the tiger to the hotel entrance. The car stopped beside the tiger. After the two sat in, the tiger Already drunk and unconscious, talking nonsense and not knowing what to say, Gu Xiaoxiao helped him to sit in the back row, the tiger's head was tilted in her arms, Gu Xiaoxiao hesitated, and reached out to hug the tiger's neck After the car started, the tiger suddenly burst into tears. He hugged Gu Xiaoxiao tightly and said, "Yingzi, I'm so fucking sorry for you, I've made you feel wronged all my life, I'm really not a fucking man." Gu Xiaoxiao felt uncomfortable for a while, but still patted the tiger on the back and said: It's okay, it's really okay, don't be sad. Shunzi sighed and said to the driver: Pull over. After the car was parked, he opened the door and got out of the car. He turned to the driver and said, "Why don't you come down and watch a show up there?" Only then did the driver react, and he got out of the car and the two of them went to the side to smoke. After crying enough, the tiger still hugged Gu Xiaoxiao and shouted "Yingzi, Yingzi" non-stop, and kept making noise until midnight before falling asleep. On the way back, Gu Xiaoxiao asked Shunzi: Is Yingzi the woman Brother Hu likes? Shunzi said: "It's his brother's daughter-in-law, but my elder brother likes her very much, it seems that she also likes my elder brother very much, I don't know why the two of them didn't get together in the end."Gu Xiaoxiao nodded and said nothing. The next morning, when Tiger got up, he only felt a splitting headache. He clearly remembered that after being drunk, he remembered a lot of things from the past, and felt uncomfortable. He seemed to see Yingzi, but he felt that it was just a dream, so Asked Balao who was sleeping in the room strangely: Did I see Yingzi last night? Monster Bal said in a daze: I don't know, I'm looking at the shop. Tiger thought about it and didn't know if he really saw Yingzi. He lit a cigarette until his fingers burned and he came back to his senses. He called Shunzi and said, "I seemed to see Yingzi yesterday. She's here." ? Shunzi said: "Miss Yingzi didn't come yesterday, but Gu Xiaoxiao is here." The tiger immediately understood what was going on, hung up the phone with a flushed face, and said to himself: This is a fucking plant. Old Ba sat up strangely from the bed and said: Brother, did you suffer? The tiger was angry and funny and said: You should go to sleep, and you can talk nonsense if you have nothing to do. After driving to the office, I saw a cup of strong tea on the table, and a note under the cup said: If you have a headache, put some wind oil on your temples.The font is beautiful, and it looks like it was left by Gu Xiaoxiao. Thinking of what happened last night, Tiger wished he could find a hole in the ground to get in. He was feeling embarrassed when someone knocked on the door suddenly. Gu Xiaoxiao said, "Is Mr. Zhuang there?" Tiger hurriedly stuffed the note into his pocket and said: Here it is. Gu Xiaoxiao opened the door and entered, holding a bottle of essential oil in her hand and said, "I guess you don't have essential oil, so I went to the supermarket and bought a box. If you have a headache, you can wipe it on and keep it for safekeeping." Tiger said: Thank you. Gu Xiaoxiao said: Why are you so polite, you also saved me last night. Only then did Tiger realize that he almost turned his face against Section Chief Zhao because of Gu Xiaoxiao, and said with a smile: If I really offend him because of you, I will be at a loss. Gu Xiaoxiao said: I believe Brother Hu is not a shrinking turtle, seeing others bullying to the door, he still dare not make a sound. The tiger said: That's not necessarily the case, the emperor still pretends to be cowardly, let alone people like us, don't think I'm so powerful. Gu Xiaoxiao said with an unpredictable expression: Brother Hu, is it worth doing these things for me? Tiger said: I can't figure out whether this kind of thing is cost-effective. At that time, I thought that I wouldn't let you suffer. Gu Xiaoxiao said: Thank you Brother Hu, if you are free tonight, I would like to treat you to dinner. The tiger was stunned and said: Treat me to dinner, didn't you just go out to eat yesterday? Gu Xiaoxiao said: "What kind of rice did you eat yesterday? A table full of dressed beasts. Today I invite you to a good place. You are now a big boss. You can't always eat sweet and sour pork ribs and braised carp. Some people will look down on you." The tiger smiled and said: I am a Chinese and I eat Chinese food, and is there someone making fun of me? Gu Xiaoxiao said: People in the upper class like to look down on others the most, you don't want yourself to be the laughing stock of such people, do you? The tiger said: "Go and eat when you eat. There are so many reasons. It's normal to look down on me. I'm a ruffian to begin with." Gu Xiaoxiao said: There are many ruffians, but there are very few ruffians who are as reasonable and loyal as you are. Tiger said: My pet name is Tiger, which belongs to the national first-class protected animals, of course it is rare. Gu Xiaoxiao smiled and said: Then I have to invite the first-level protected animals to the banquet tonight. Tiger said: No problem. As soon as Gu Xiaoxiao went out, Yo Ma walked in and said: Brother, Songtao and Malu were beaten up, and they said they were Qingzi's dog legs. The tiger said angrily: Damn Cao Yang is really shameless. Ma Youdao: As far as I know, it was not Cao Yang who beat them, it should be another group of people. The tiger was a little surprised and said: Why? Ma Youdao: You should know that now the entire Changping underworld has something to say to us, and they have caught us. There is another thing that is really fatal. Qingzi's mother was admitted to the hospital. I heard it was a myocardial infarction. Just now I went to inquire about it, and it is estimated that it may not be able to be rescued. The tiger immediately stood up and said: Is your news reliable? Ma Youdao: This is not a secret, you can find out if you go to the hospital and ask casually, the critical illness notice has been issued long ago. The tiger said: "This is a big crime. I'm afraid Qingzi will regret it for the rest of his life." Ma Youdao: He can't blame anyone, but he can only blame himself for not listening to others. The tiger sighed and said: Who among us is not like this?Don't talk about him anymore, go to the hospital and let them use all means to save people, and the cost will be on me. Not long after Yo Ma went out, he called back and said: The person is gone. I sent the body to the mortuary when I went to the hospital. The tiger was silent for a while and said: Can I contact him? Ma Youdao: I called, but the phone was not turned on. The tiger said: "Life and death are at the mercy of fate, so Qingzi's life can be regarded as a catastrophe. When he comes back, make good arrangements, and don't let him go out to mess around again." In the evening, Gu Xiaoxiao came to Tiger's office and said: Mr. Zhuang, should you be free tonight? The tiger was not in a good mood and said: Do you have to do it today?Can we change the time. Gu Xiaoxiao's expression immediately changed: "What was said in the morning will be changed in the evening. Mr. Zhuang can't be a villain who turns back on what he says. The tiger said: "Girl, I'm not putting on airs. Today, Qingzi's mother passed away. I feel a little confused. I don't know how to tell you about this. I hope all my brothers can be well, but everyone with me seems to be It's not going well, so I want to be quiet. Gu Xiaoxiao said: Brother Hu, can you stop being so superstitious, it is wrong to go this way, how many people can end up well?Unless you look back, like Brother Shunzi, he had his leg broken and suffered a great loss, but now he is no worse than anyone else, except for calling you brother, those suppliers who see that he is not like a grandson. The tiger smiled and said, "Is this kid so imposing now?" Gu Xiaoxiao said: Supermarket purchases are the source of wealth for those suppliers. Based on the sales volume of our supermarket, it is good that these people can come in as grandchildren. Tiger said: Very good, as long as he is on the right path, I will support him no matter what. After a while, Gu Xiaoxiao sighed and said: I am so happy to be your little brother. The tiger was taken aback and said, "Am I treating you badly?"I treat men and women equally, and I will not let any of you suffer. Gu Xiaoxiao said: You are biased, I haven't asked you to treat me to dinner yet, and I won't even give you face if I invite you. The tiger laughed loudly and said, "Forget it, I'm afraid of you. Today I ask you to tell me where do you want to go?" Gu Xiaoxiao said: No, I agreed to invite you, if you want to invite me, you have to change it to tomorrow. The tiger said: You are really greedy. It is not easy for me to spare one night, but you are still going to enjoy it. Gu Xiaoxiao curled her mouth upwards and said: The big boss can't talk casually, he has to honor what he says. The tiger nodded and said: "Okay, I won't say much, if I want to talk about it, I will have to worry about your dinner for the rest of my life."After saying this, the tiger immediately felt that something was wrong, Gu Xiaoxiao blushed, and lowered her head shyly, the tiger pretended not to see it and got up and said, "Let's go." Gu Xiaoxiao took the tiger to a well-decorated western-style restaurant in the city center, and she said: Dining here is one of the signs of a successful person, you have to study hard. The tiger looked around and said: "It's the first time I heard that eating can be related to this when I grow up so big." After entering, Gu Xiaoxiao had reserved a seat a long time ago. It was a table for two people facing each other. After sitting down, Tiger found that the people eating here were whispering and there was no loud noise. Eat all kinds of food. I don’t want everyone to use chopsticks to hold a dish of Chinese food. Tiger knows that this is called Western food. When he saw this, he had a headache and said: The beef that foreigners eat is baked like a big pancake. I lose my appetite just looking at it. Gu Xiaoxiao suppressed a smile and said: The steak is grilled, and the sweet potato is baked. The tiger said: I don't understand, what kind of good things can a foreigner make, put the soup on a plate, and the tomato soup doesn't even have a frangipane, it's too uneconomical. Gu Xiaoxiao said: "Brother Hu, can you say a few words less, if you come, you will be safe, and let me arrange it today, okay?" The tiger said: Come on, but don't order me a flatbread steak. Gu Xiaoxiao finally couldn't help laughing out loud, and before she stopped laughing, she heard someone say: Boss Zhuang is here too. The tiger followed the prestige and saw Qin Gang standing by his table with a flirtatious girl. He didn't have a bad impression of Qin Gang, because he had given himself enough face. The tiger said: "It's okay, come and have a big... steak. Qin Gang glanced at Gu Xiaoxiao and said: "This is my sister-in-law, I didn't see her last time, but I finally met the real person today." Tiger was about to deny it, but unexpectedly Gu Xiaoxiao stood up gracefully and said: Please take care of me. Qin Gang smiled and said: Sister-in-law really knows how to make fun of me, it is I who asked you to take care of me.As he spoke, he took out a business card and handed it to Gu Xiaoxiao with both hands. The tiger's heart moved, and he scolded himself for being confused, no wonder she was always pestering him, so this little girl was tempted, Gu Xiaoxiao said: Mr. Qin is the big boss, if we have a chance to do business in our small shop, we must ask Mr. Qin to support him. Qin Gang said with a smile: I am ashamed of what my sister-in-law said. Boss Zhuang’s recent supermarket business is so hot that it’s scary. It's money, I regret that I didn't start the supermarket before Mr. Zhuang. The tiger said: Mr. Qin can do it too, it's not too late now. Qin Gang smiled and said, "Boss Zhuang, don't be overwhelmed. I don't have the intention of grabbing your business. I'm too busy with such trivial matters now. How dare I be distracted? But I have an idea, and I don't know if Boss Zhuang wants to hear it." Tiger said: You said, as long as it is not a demolition business, I will not make that money. Qin Gang smiled and said, "Who is Boss Zhuang? Do I dare to say such things to you?"I mean have you ever thought about working with me? Tiger said: Cooperate with you?I don't know much about real estate, that kind of big business is not something that just anyone can do. Qin Gang said: Boss Zhuang misunderstood, I didn't ask you to do real estate, but if you can enter every new building I open, it will also promote the sales of my real estate. As for the cost of the front house, I will definitely give you the lowest price . The tiger said: I understand what you mean, this is a good idea, as long as I have money, I will definitely do it. The two chatted speculatively, so they decided to join a table, but after the meal, Gu Xiaoxiao walked out of the restaurant with a pouting Lao Gao without saying a word, and walked behind the tiger with his head down. The tiger brought the car in front of her, Gu Xiaoxiao It was still the same when I got in the car. Tiger treated her temper as a little girl, and didn't take it to heart. After a long time, Gu Xiaoxiao sighed and said: After so many years, you just can't forget her? The tiger was taken aback and said, "Who did you hear about this?" Gu Xiaoxiao said: You just say it, right? The tiger thought for a long time before saying: You are a little girl, is it appropriate to ask this kind of question? Gu Xiaoxiao said: "If you don't want to answer, I'll ask you another question. Who do you think is better between me and her?" This was even more embarrassing for the tiger, he smiled wryly and said: You are usually very smart, how come you ask such inexplicable words, can I make this kind of comparison casually?Besides, the two of you are not the same kind of people, so how do you compare them? Gu Xiaoxiao said: It's inconvenient not to say it. It seems that I'm not as good as her, but no matter how good Brother Hu is, she belongs to someone else. It's useless if you always remember her. The tiger said: Girl, it's not that I don't want to compare, you are all good, so I hope you can be happy in the future, isn't that right? Gu Xiaoxiao said: Wrong, you can't impose your own thoughts on others, sister Yingzi has already made a mistake once, are you going to make another mistake? Gu Xiaoxiao's hot confession made the tiger a little overwhelmed. He really couldn't figure out why he was worthy of this little girl's love. He was old, ordinary-looking, and had a criminal record. What did she like about him?Thinking of this, the tiger said: Girl, many things cannot be based on feelings. Once this kind of thing is wrong, there is no turning back. It is the same as our gangsters. The difference is that gangsters hurt others, and choosing the wrong man hurts yourself. Gu Xiaoxiao said: I know that I will not be mistaken, and I believe that my choice is correct. The tiger said: How old are you, people like us are actually easy to attract women, we are majestic when we go out, we look quite masculine, but in fact we are very timid, if there is trouble, we want to find a mouse hole to go in, you Don't let your feelings fool you. Gu Xiaoxiao thought for a long time before saying: You just don't want to dislike me. The tiger said: We can't talk about this, we are basically two-way people, you are still young, you will understand later. Gu Xiaoxiao said: You don't know, before I came to Changping, I didn't work in the supermarket at all, it was all a lie to you, I became a prostitute when I was sixteen, and I didn't completely leave this circle until last year. After hearing this sentence, the tiger didn't speak for a long time. After a long time, the tiger said: Why did you choose this road? Is it for your brother? Gu Xiaoxiao said: That's right, my parents died early, and entrusted this younger brother to me when they were dying. How can I, a girl, support him? I don't want to do this, but there is really no way. At this point, he was sobbing, Tiger leaned the car on the side of the road, lit a cigarette and smoked silently, Gu Xiaoxiao stopped crying and said: I know you will definitely look down on me if you tell me about this, but I really don’t want to lie you.After that, she opened the car door and was about to get out of the car. Tiger grabbed her hand. Gu Xiaoxiao wanted to break free and said, "Let go of me, I know I'm not good enough for you, I know I'm not as good as Sister Yingzi, but I just like you, it's not my fault." No matter how hard-hearted a man is at this level, he might have to "melt". After a moment of silence, the tiger said: You have been a prostitute, I have been a ruffian, and everyone is unclean. I don't dislike you. Follow me. good result. Gu Xiaoxiao's eyes were red again and said: I'm not afraid, as long as I can be with you, I'm not afraid of anything.After saying that, he suddenly hugged the tiger, the tiger was also caught off guard, his body stiffened immediately, and he didn't dare to move. The tiger felt that Gu Xiaoxiao was breathing more and more rapidly, and he couldn't help but feel hot all over. He only heard Gu Xiaoxiao whisper: Brother Hu, thank you, thank you very much. Tiger said: Why do you want to thank me?I did nothing? Gu Xiaoxiao said: You didn't dislike me, that's the best way to treat me.Two pieces of hot lips were stuck to the tiger's mouth. Gu Xiaoxiao didn't go back that night. She went to the tiger's place. From this day on, the two officially lived together.
