Chapter 5 Chapter 5 Ready to move

Lao Kui used shards of glass to cut off his main artery. When he found out, he was already stiff and bleeding all over the place. On the night of Lao Kui's suicide, Zhou Yican's heart was full of emotions and it was difficult to calm down.She finally got her wish and met Deputy Secretary Qi. Qi Muran is more kind and friendly than she imagined, and there is even a layer of kindness on his face.Zhou Yican originally wanted to invite Qi Muran to dinner, so it was natural to talk at the dinner table.But Qi Muran is too busy. Yinzhou International Mall, the largest investment project in Yinzhou, is about to break ground. This project was grasped by Qi Muran. After three years of talking, it was finally finalized. He will hold a banquet to entertain distinguished guests in the evening.He told the secretary, "Tell her that I don't have time to eat, but I can listen to the work report. Let her wait at the Yinzhou Hotel."

Most leaders of the provincial party committee have several places to work or rest. Qi Muran rarely uses this suite in Yinzhou Hotel on weekdays. He likes to stay in the quieter Taohuashan Friendship Hotel, where the scenery is beautiful, the scenery is beautiful, and the air is even better. Refreshing and pleasant.Zhou Yican filled her stomach casually, and went to Yinzhou Hotel to wait. She waited for three hours, and her heart was about to rot. The secretary called again, saying that Secretary Qi had returned to Peach Blossom Mountain and asked her to go to Friendship Hospital. Hotel lobby.

As soon as she heard that Deputy Secretary Qi was going to meet her at the Friendship Hotel, Zhou Yican's exhaustion was swept away, and her heart burned.You know, Qi Muran rarely receives his subordinates at the Friendship Hotel, it's more like his private place, only multi-millionaires like Zhou Tieshan are eligible to come in and out.Regarding the Friendship Hotel, there have been many rumors below, and they are all mysterious.Thinking of this, Zhou Yican couldn't help being excited. Perhaps, Deputy Secretary Qi did this on purpose?Zhou Yican picked up the calligraphy and painting, took a taxi and rushed to the Friendship Hotel. As soon as he entered the lobby, he saw Deputy Secretary Qi's secretary waiting there.After saying a few words, the secretary took her upstairs, and when she was almost at the door of the room, the secretary reminded: "Secretary Qi has been very tired recently, so don't waste his time too much." Heart went in.

Qi Muran's attitude this day was really unexpected. At first, Zhou Yican wondered if the cooperation with the International Mall went smoothly, and Deputy Secretary Qi was happy?Later, he realized that it wasn't true, Deputy Secretary Qi must have other exciting things, which made him smile happily. "Yi Can, I'm sorry, I drank a little wine today and tossed you back and forth." Zhou Yican hurriedly said: "Secretary Qi, please don't say that. When you say that, I feel even more uneasy." While speaking, she picked up the glass, filled Qi Muran with water, and put her hands in front of him.

"Uneasy? What's the matter?" Qi Muran smiled, his eyes flicked back and forth a few times on Zhou Yican, and seeing Zhou Yican's face blushing, he smiled loudly, "Why, have you encountered difficulties at work again?" Seeing that Deputy Secretary Qi was in a good mood, Zhou Yican spoke boldly: "Secretary Qi, a lot of things have happened in Heyang recently, and I'm really anxious in my heart." Qi Muran still smiled: "Of course it's urgent, not urgent How can I do it? Last time I criticized Qiang Wei, an old Kui, and caused a lot of trouble in the city."

"I'm also responsible for this matter. I didn't stick to my opinion at the time and let Xiaokui's case drag on for too long. Secretary Qi, please criticize me." Zhou Yican said hastily.Her words had double meanings: first, she wanted to tell Qi Muran that she had different opinions on this matter, but she didn't insist on it because of the unity of the team; second, she wanted to tell Qi Muran that so far, she We are consistent with Qiang Wei and Qiao Guodong, and we should all suffer criticism together.Zhou Yican's words were carefully considered these days. After hearing this, Qi Muran smiled lightly: "There's no need to criticize. If you criticize all the time, you won't solve the problem. What about attracting investment? Why has it changed?"

Yi Yi lowered her head in a clamor: "Secretary Qi, I came to you to complain about my grievances. The matter of Reiter Company seems to be a success, but..." She made a look of aggrieved, twisted her hands together, unable to Very helpful. Qi Muran was silent for a while, and said: "Don't worry, just talk slowly, what happened to Qiang Wei, I asked him about it, but he didn't explain the reason." Zhou Yican explained the general process of the negotiation. Because she was still not sure about Qi Moran's attitude towards Qiang Wei, when mentioning Qiang Wei, she always respectfully called him Secretary Qiang, and did not speculate about the specific matters.After Qi Muran finished listening, the hot smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a serious expression.

"Comrade Yican, have you been in Heyang for two years?" He asked suddenly. "Two years and seven months. You were the one who talked to me. I remember it clearly." "It's not long, but it's not short either." Qi Muran's words made Zhou Yican confused. She wondered if she said something wrong in the report just now, and looked at Qi Muran timidly.The wine on Qi Muran's face is slowly receding. This face once ignited the hope of her life when she first entered the official career. Now, the emotions on this face are more important to her. "Xiao Zhou, do you know what's wrong with me?" Qi Muran suddenly changed his address to Zhou Yican, no longer called her comrade, and called her Xiao Zhou as before.Zhou Yican's heart warmed up, and Qi Muran's ability to call her like this proved that...

"Maybe I'm too optimistic about things." Yi Yi replied tentatively. "No," Qi Moran stood up abruptly, paced up and down the room, turned around, Yuan returned to Zhou Yican's side, stopped, looked down at her and said, "You are too lacking in assertiveness and lack of ability to act independently Ability. I asked you to cooperate with Comrade Qiangwei to do a good job in Heyang, but I didn’t let you blindly obey. Also, in the past two years, your performance disappointed me and Comrade Gao Bo. Sending you to Heyang will bring a wave of anger to Heyang. I didn't expect that you lacked aggressiveness and vigor, and instead became a vase by Comrade Qiangwei's side."

"Secretary Qi, I..." Zhou Yican said, and was about to stand up.Qi Muran interrupted her: "Don't worry, wait until I finish talking." "Xiao Zhou, don't be afraid of doing work, let alone hide your head and tail. Now is the era of market economy. If you don't rush, others will rush. This is the same as selling products. If you can't occupy the market, other people's products will squeeze in." Here we come. Although Comrade Qiang Wei has various deficiencies, he is better than you in one thing—dare to act, dare to take risks, and dare to fully reveal his will.”

Zhou Yican is confused, is Qi Muran sure about Qiangwei, or... "Let's talk about the Hehua Group. The Provincial Party Committee has always attached great importance to it, and has exchanged a lot of opinions with Comrade Qiang Wei, but he just insisted on his own opinion and refused to give up. You are the opposite. Originally, the Ruite Company was yours. Catch it, I also support your idea, invest as much as you want, don’t talk about mergers and acquisitions. If you don’t talk about it, there will be trouble. What is Hehua Group? It is a banner of Heyang and a key industrial enterprise in the province , how can it be easily acquired by foreigners? You should think about this issue carefully and deeply.” "Secretary Qi, what do you mean..." Zhou Yican couldn't help standing up, facing Qi Muran.She felt that Qi Muran's breath was a little hot, and she was also hot. The heat didn't seem to be caused by tension. "I don't mean anything, Xiao Zhou, don't keep thinking about the meaning of the leader. Your problem is not good, very bad. You keep thinking about others. How can you do it? You have to rely on your own thinking and judgment to do your work. You Say?" Zhou Yican blushed, hummed lightly, and lowered her head. "Of course, the problem in Heyang is complicated. If it's not complicated, the provincial committee won't send you there. The provincial committee still has high expectations for you. You can't let us down." Speaking of this, Qi Moran smiled.His smile was very interesting, not only did Zhou Yican not relax, but even more nervous.Zhou Yican stood there, neither sitting nor standing, feeling a little awkward for a moment. "Sit, sit, Xiao Zhou, when you are in front of me, you don't need to be nervous, and you don't need to keep looking at me with frightened eyes. I, Qi Muran, haven't been so arbitrary yet, have I?" Qi Muran's words made Zhou Yican relax instantly - yes, what am I afraid of him, what is there to be afraid of in front of such an approachable leader?She adjusted her mentality and sat down generously. After that, Zhou Yican became more calm, and her speech was no longer like before. She had to consider the next sentence after saying the first sentence, and became more fluent.As soon as she flows smoothly, the air in the room also flows smoothly, and the smile on Qi Muran's face becomes smoother.This night, although Qi Muran didn't say anything to her explicitly, not really, not even a single clear instruction, but the motivation in Qi Muran's subconscious was still captured by her.Later, she got up slowly, with a certain charm and a posture that women naturally produce when they are in a good mood, walked to the door, took out the calligraphy and painting from the packaging bag she brought in, gently opened it, and said: " Secretary Qi, this is the work that Wu Ershui, an old calligrapher in Heyang, is most satisfied with, he invites you to be upright." When Qi Muran saw the calligraphy and painting, his eyes lit up instinctively, and he rushed to the calligraphy and painting immediately.Zhou Yican was secretly happy, and tried to pretend to be plain and said: "Old Mr. Ershui is a strange person. Although his calligraphy and paintings are not as mysterious as the outside world, but he himself is very persistent." "No, Mr. Ershui is a genius. He got the true biography of Ziyu. This word is really extraordinary!" Qi Muran sighed sincerely.He has always wanted to collect a painting and calligraphy of Ershui, but the old man Ershui is very stubborn.Zhou Tieshan tried a lot, but he couldn't get his original work. As for himself, he couldn't come to ask for it in person, so he kept this regret in his heart.Seeing this picture today, he has no regrets.He was intoxicated in front of the calligraphy and painting for a long time, slowly raised his eyes, and said emotionally: "Xiao Zhou, thank you, you have fulfilled my wish." Zhou Yican smiled and said: "Secretary Qi, Yican can still handle this small matter for you." A "one charm" makes the smell in the room much more friendly. After reading the calligraphy and painting, Zhou Yican talked about the desert reservoir. She only mentioned the seepage of the reservoir, but she didn't mention the reason, let alone Zhou Tieshan.Qi Muran listened, pondered for a while, and said: "The problem of water seepage must be solved as soon as possible. If you can't find a good engineering team in the city, you can go to the Water Conservancy Department to hire them. Their experts will not be unable to solve this problem. As for the upstream Coordinating the release of water is a bit more difficult, but the current drought is urgent and we have to solve it, how about you go to the Water Conservancy Department tomorrow and raise both issues with them and listen to their opinions." Hearing this, Zhou Yican knew that there was hope for water transfer.Knowing that she should leave, she got up and said reluctantly, "Secretary Qi, you should go to bed early. I will go to the Water Conservancy Department tomorrow. If the water shortage is not resolved, I will feel very uneasy." Qi Muran didn't keep her, and when he was about to leave, he warned: "You must be courageous and courageous, otherwise, you will become a stable cadre, how can you carry out your work?" Coming out of the Friendship Hotel, Zhou Yican's mood was hard to calm down for a long time. Qi Muran's many hints this night, as well as what he said later, seemed like a stimulant, stimulating her nerves and making her unable to restrain herself.She didn't want this good mood to die prematurely, and she didn't want her husband's car and trees to spoil it. She didn't go home that night, and went to the hotel by herself, soaking in the water tank happily.In the steaming heat, she thought of the words Qi Muran said again, and carefully figured out the meaning of each sentence.There is meaning. Qi Muran's words are never clear. How to understand it all depends on the understanding of the listener.Zhou Yican is confident that she is not a woman with poor understanding. She is convinced that she is good at trying to figure out the deep meaning of other people's words. She finally had a certainty that victory was in sight.Go bold and do it - that's at the heart of all the conversations tonight. She smiled comfortably, a knot that had been trapped in her heart for a long time was finally untied, and she no longer had to be timid. Her smile was bright, and even though it was covered by the hot steam, she still felt that she was very stretched. She slowly opened her body, letting the hot water cotton as gentle as her fingers cover herself... At this time, the poor old Kui was hesitating, whether he could live on, should he put the glass shard in his hand by his throat? After answering the phone, Qiang Wei rushed to Heyang. He didn't say a word on the way, and Xu Yanrong didn't dare to talk too much. He held the steering wheel with both hands and drove with all his attention.When approaching the boundary of Heyang, the car that picked him up arrived, Qiang Wei jumped out of the car, got into his own car without saying a word to Xu Yanrong.Watching his car leave like an arrow, Xu Yanrong felt very complicated emotions welling up in her heart. She was in a daze when her cell phone rang. When she saw the number, she immediately cheered up. "What's the matter?" she asked. "Xu Ting, where are you? I have something important to tell you." "I'm on the way, what's the matter, you say." "I found the flight attendant. Her name is Lin Fang and she lives in Urumqi." "What did she say?" "She won't say anything, but from her state of mind she must have been frightened." "Are you sure?" Xu Yanrong parked the car on the side of the road, and got into a forest by the side of the road by herself.This news was really important to her. For the past two years, she had been looking for this flight attendant, but she suddenly disappeared as if she had evaporated. "She is now working in a guest house of the railway department, but according to colleagues, she has not been at work for more than a year." "Get in touch with the railway police immediately. This matter must be kept secret. In addition, pay attention to protecting her safety." At this time, Xu Yanrong's professional sensitivity when she was a policeman jumped up. Back then, she was a well-known member of the city's criminal investigation team. policewoman with flowers. "I know, Xu Ting, don't worry, this time, we will definitely get the evidence." "Okay, I'll wait for your good news." After answering the phone, Xu Yanrong's heart suddenly brightened, and the uneasiness and worries just now were swept away. She jumped into the car, took a deep breath, stepped on the accelerator, and rushed towards Heyang. This Lin Fang is the key witness in Xiaokui's death case. Only she can prove whether Xiaokui died of a sudden heart attack that day or because of other reasons.The reason why Xu Yanrong searched for her so hard was to prove a fact, she was innocent in Xiao Kui's death case, and Xiao Kui's death had nothing to do with her!She knew that it was for this reason that Qiang Wei had a lot of worries in Xiao Kui's case and could not be ruthless.Just last night, when she was about to go back to her room, Qiang Wei asked her worriedly: "Tell me the truth, in Xiaokui's case, what exactly are you..." Although Qiang Wei didn't finish his sentence, but She knew what he was going to ask.As before, she still didn't answer him, but just looked at him reluctantly: "Rest at ease, don't think too much." When Qiang Wei arrived at the scene, the "Swallow Building" in Xicheng District had been brought under control. The proprietress Yanzi and several waiters were all taken away, and the guests who stayed here last night were also interrogated one by one.The tigers in charge of the case were also isolated, and the only one active at the scene was Song Tong, the captain of the criminal investigation team. Seeing Qiangwei's car, Song Tong hurried over: "Secretary Qiang, you are back. I have something important to report to you." Qiang Wei glanced at Song Tong coldly, but said nothing. The deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, who was guarding the scene, came over and said to Qiang Wei: "The body has been transported away, and the on-site investigation has been completed. It is certain that he committed suicide." "The exact time?" Qiang Wei's face was black, his expression was iron.One can imagine what kind of mood he is in now. "The time is about two to three in the morning. The forensic doctor is making the final appraisal, and the details will come out soon." "When did you find out?" "Nine in the morning." "Nine o'clock?" Qiang Wei asked this sentence, before the Deputy Director of the Public Security Bureau could speak, he turned around and got into the car, and said to the driver, "Go back!" In the meeting room of the Municipal Party Committee, other members of the Standing Committee were already waiting here. It was Qiang Wei who informed him by phone when he left Changchang, and accidents happened one after another, all of which were major events. He really couldn't make it to the meeting now.Walking into the meeting room, Qiang Wei glanced at the meeting place, and found that Xu Shouren, director of the Public Security Bureau, secretary of the Xicheng District Party Committee, district chief, etc. were already sitting there, but Qiao Guodong, director of the Municipal People's Congress, was nowhere to be seen. "Where's Old Joe?" He asked the secretary-general who informed the meeting. The secretary-general hurriedly got up: "Director Qiao called and said that he was not feeling well and could not attend the meeting." "Not feeling well? Didn't he talk to Lao Kui yesterday, why is he not feeling well now?" Zhou Yican, who was sitting next to him, suddenly spoke. Zhou Yican set off from Yinzhou, the provincial capital, early in the morning. She was going to the Water Conservancy Department today. After taking a shower last night, she couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart, so she called the head of the Water Conservancy Department overnight. After listening, I said a lot of embarrassing words.Just when Zhou Yican's mood was about to dim, the director actually changed the subject again: "You go back to the city tomorrow and write a report as soon as possible, clearly stating the drought situation and the amount of water available in the reservoir, and then send someone to send it to you." Regarding the water transfer, let me discuss it with several upstream reservoirs first." Zhou Yican's emotions immediately rose, and although the director did not agree, but with this instruction, Zhou Yican firmly believed that the water problem would be resolved.As for the leakage project in the second area, that is the next step to be solved, and it can't be too urgent for the time being, but Zhou Yichan seems to have a bottom line.Early this morning, she was in a hurry to rush back, time was running out, she wanted to strike while the iron was hot, and strive to bring down the water in the upstream reservoir as soon as possible.On the way, she got the news of Lao Kui's suicide, which shocked her into a cold sweat and made her feel sad again.However, now is not the time to be sad, she is glad that she left early, if she fell behind Qiang Wei, she might not be so confident in speaking now. When Qiao Guodong talked to Lao Kui, Qiang Wei was shocked. "What's going on?" He asked Zhou Yichan. "Let Lao Xu talk, Lao Xu should be clear about this matter, let him talk to everyone." Xu Shouren moved his buttocks, and looked at Qiang Wei uneasily. Qiang Wei pulled over the chair and sat down. He didn't even look at Xu Shouren, and threw a word: "Say." That's how the meeting kicked off.According to Xu Shouren, at four o'clock yesterday afternoon, Qiao Guodong called him suddenly, saying that he wanted to meet Lao Kui alone, and asked if he would allow it.The director of the National People's Congress wants to see the person involved, how dare he not allow it?Xu Shouren called immediately and made arrangements.At a quarter past five, Qiao Guodong came to the "Swallow Building". Tiger and a young police officer named Zhang were on duty at the time. They took Lao Kui to the reception room and uncuffed him.Qiao Guodong said, stay away, I want to talk to Lao Kui alone.The conversation continued until 8:20 in the evening, without dinner in between.When I delivered the meal to Lao Kui at nine o'clock in the evening, the situation was still good, nothing abnormal was seen, I didn't think about it, when I woke up in the morning, I just... "Did you find it when you woke up in the morning, or did you find it at nine o'clock in the morning?" Qiang Wei asked with a dark face. "The two of them woke up at nine o'clock." Xu Shouren lowered his head sadly while talking. Xu Shouren regretted it very much. Originally, arranging Song Tong to take charge of the case was also a game of chess carefully arranged by him.On the one hand, Song Tong was the captain of the criminal investigation team, and it was only natural that he was in charge of the case. Besides, someone from the provincial department had greeted him before making the arrangement.In addition, Xu Shouren's arrangement was also out of consideration for Xiaokui's case.Xiaokui's case has been closed for a long time, and the investigation will not find any problems. If there is no investigation, the problem seems to be left there.After thinking about it, he wanted Song Tong and others to participate in Lao Kui's case, maybe some truth would come out automatically.This is a wonderful game of chess, but also a dangerous game of chess.Who knew such a change would happen in the middle! He is still not thoughtful! "Wake up at nine o'clock, how do you explain that?" Qiang Wei's voice sounded casual, but inside, there was a sense of power without anger. "They... they played cards at night... they were late, and they went to bed late in the morning." Xu Shouren said guiltily. Qiang Wei groaned, and with this groan, Xu Shouren's forehead immediately became sweaty. "Then... what happened to the broken glass?" After a while, Qiang Wei asked again. "Preliminary confirmation, it is..." "What is it?" Qiang Wei followed closely. Xu Shouren wiped the sweat off his brow again, and stared at Qiang Wei as if asking for help, meaning that this is related to the confidentiality of the case, can we not say it here? Qiang Wei didn't seem to see Xu Shouren's gaze, but still lowered his head, and said in an irresistible tone: "If you want to talk, finish the talk, hesitating, what's there to cover up?" Zhou Yican answered, "Speak, Lao Xu, now is not the time to hide." Qiang Wei gave Zhou Yi a wicked look, why is this woman so talkative today? Xu Shouren could only speak bravely. At this moment, he really hated Qiang Wei a little bit.Public security work is no different from administrative work. There are certain things that cannot be said, and they cannot be said to anyone.But Qiang Wei forced him to speak, so what can he do? Qiang Wei didn't expect that Xu Shouren would tell a fact that shocked him. If he had known this earlier, he would never let Xu Shouren say anything at the meeting. But it was too late, when he hastily announced that the meeting would be held here temporarily, all eyes were fixed on his face in doubt, fearing that no one would believe him, he Qiangwei knew nothing about it, he must have borrowed Xu Shouren's mouth wanted to push Qiao Guodong to a desperate situation! It was this meeting that Qiang Wei deeply regretted later.But there was one thing he was wrong again. At this moment, he still failed to cast his trusting eyes on Xu Shouren, but... The air in Heyang became tense again. Since Qiao Guodong was suspected of intimidating and intimidating Lao Kui and was directly responsible for Lao Kui's death, Qiang Wei had to make a special trip to the provincial capital to make a special report to Deputy Secretary Qi.Accompanying him was Xu Shouren, director of the Public Security Bureau. On the road Qiangwei asked Xu Shouren again: "Could it be a mistake, the cup was really taken by Old Qiao?" "It's not wrong. I asked Tiger and Xiao Zhang again and again. They said that Director Qiao had talked with Lao Kui for less than 20 minutes. Director Qiao called them to pour water for Lao Kui. Xiao Zhang put the cup and thermos After bringing it in, Director Qiao sent him away, and Director Qiao poured the water himself." "Take one or two?" "One, Director Qiao brought the cup himself." "Why didn't you check after the talk? You don't have this bit of common sense?" Qiang Wei couldn't help but use a critical tone again.Regarding Xu Shouren, Qiang Wei's opinion was not one day or two. He was a little unhappy when he was mentioned as the director of the Public Security Bureau.These years, Xu Shouren is not saying that he has not done his job, but that the problems always outweigh the achievements, and the public security system is always unsatisfactory.In several meetings, he wanted to take him down, but Xu Shouren's background was complicated. He touched him several times, but he couldn't figure out the bottom line of this person.Even Yu Shuhong said good things for him more than once. But in Qiangwei's heart, he just doesn't like this person! The relationship between people is so strange.After all the storms had passed, Qiang Wei realized that it wasn't that Xu Shouren really had something he hated, but because of two words: relationship.Xu Shouren's deputy director was single-handedly promoted by Mr. Song at the beginning. It was this that made him have a deep-rooted prejudice against Xu Shouren! It was precisely because of his prejudice that it was even more difficult for Xu Shouren to be the chief of the bureau! how terrible! Prejudice is something that can not only obscure a person's vision of judging things, but also lead people astray. "Didn't I say that! Because it was Director Qiao who talked to Lao Kui, they didn't dare to follow the rules." Xu Shouren said this angrily, probably because Qiang Wei asked him anxiously. Qiang Wei was caught by him, the feeling in his heart was not to mention how awkward it was, but it was not easy to attack.The two of them didn't talk all the way. When they got to Yinzhou Hotel and met Qi Muran, Xu Shouren talked a lot. No matter how angry Qi Muran got, he insisted on finishing the report. At this moment, Qiang Wei thanked Xu Shouren a little bit. If he hadn't come with him, he really didn't know how to open his mouth for this report. Qi Moran got angry enough, and couldn't find anything new to scold. After calming down for a while, he instructed: "Go to the Provincial People's Congress immediately. This matter is no small matter. You must report to the place that needs to be reported. Also, what should you do next? , You should listen to the opinions of the provincial department. If you have time today, you should also go to the provincial public security department. I don’t have much to say about business matters. I will follow the opinions of the provincial department. Comrade Guodong will do this kind of thing , I am very sad, but the problem cannot be solved, the Provincial Committee held a meeting to conduct a special study on Heyang's problems, before the Provincial Committee makes a decision, Heyang cannot be chaotic, if it is chaotic, you Qiangwei will take responsibility for me!" Qiang Wei could only nod his head. Seeing that Qi Muran wanted to see off the guests, he stood up first: "Secretary Qi, we are going to the Provincial People's Congress right now. I will definitely keep your instructions in mind." "Stop saying such useless things to me!" When the National People's Congress, the Public Security Bureau, the Political and Legal Committee, etc. reported all the way, one day passed, and before dinner was eaten, Heyang called to remind him that there was a fire at home. Mr. Song found the municipal committee and asked the municipal committee to punish the murderer severely. Lao Kui's family explained one by one. Hearing that Mr. Song also jumped out, Qiang Wei's head swelled up. Dinner was eaten at home. Last time he came, he didn't bother to go home. Of course, it also had something to do with his mood.When he is in a good mood, Qiang Wei likes to eat at home, but when he is in a bad mood, he doesn't even want to go home for fear of affecting his wife and children.This time he was in the same bad mood, but he didn't want to eat with Xu Shouren.Xu Shouren wanted to eat boiled mutton, Qiang Weixin said, what time is this, and you still want to find shame?He dropped Xu Shouren and beat him back home.Unfortunately, his wife Hu Mei was also angry on this day. Hu Mei's old father was sick, and her elder brother and sister-in-law didn't care about it, and the old man lived alone.Qiang Wei asked her to bring her father-in-law here, but Hu Mei was afraid that her brother-in-law would completely let go of her, so she hesitated and refused.It doesn't matter if you don't pick up, just go to take care of it often, anyway, Hu Mei doesn't have much to do.Unexpectedly, this incident brought a series of disharmony to their family, and there were conflicts every day.Up until now, Qiang Wei didn't realize it was a contradiction. When Qiang Wei returned home, Hu Mei didn't ask him when he arrived in the provincial capital and what he was doing there.As usual, she started nagging as soon as she met, bad-mouthing her brother-in-law, calling her sister-in-law a bad thing, a typical vixen, and instigating her brother to do nothing.After scolding his sister-in-law, he continued to scold her brother, the more scolding became more vigorous.Qiang Wei endured it at first and didn't say anything, but when the meal was brought to the table, Hu Mei was still scolding, Qiang Wei couldn't help it, and said: "Can you say a few words less, I won't come back easily, once I come back, I will I need to hear what you have to say." "You blame me if you don't come back. I didn't let you come back?" Hu Mei snapped the conversation to Qiang Wei, babbled a few words, and said, "It's not about your family, of course you don't want to listen." "Let's eat, I'll accompany you to see the old man's house after eating." Qiang Wei held back his anger and persuaded with a sneer. "Don't be hypocritical, what are you thinking in your heart, pretend I don't know?" "What do you think?" Qiang Wei put down his chopsticks and stared at Hu Mei. "You are all like a bird, wishing that he would die early!" Hu Mei was angrily, as if Qiang Wei gave her all the anger. "I said what's the matter with you, your family's affairs, what do you do with me?" "About our family? Well, you finally told the truth. No wonder you hid in Heyang and didn't come back once in a few months. It turns out that you think my family has too many things to do." With such a wife at the booth, what else can Qiang Wei say. "Making trouble out of no reason!" He vomited bitterly. Hu Mei became more and more disobedient: "I made trouble for no reason? Leave all the old and young ones to me. It's good for you to hide in the refuge hall to try to be at ease, and say that I made trouble for no reason." Hu Mei also has Hu Mei's grievances. These days She spent too much time with her father, so she waited for Qiang Wei to come back to let off steam. "Who avoided it? I'm busy with work." Qiang Wei wanted to explain patiently, and also wanted to be kind to Hu Mei, but what he said, people couldn't hear a little kindness. "Don't use your work to overwhelm others. You have a job. I don't. I rely on you to support me?" The more Hu Mei said, the more outrageous she became, and the more she said, the closer she was to making trouble for no reason.Hu Mei first taught at Jiayuguan Middle School, the No. 1 Guan in the world, and later Qiang Wei went to Changping to serve as the mayor. The provincial government took Hu Mei into the provincial capital, and their family followed suit.Hu Mei worked very hard at Yinzhou No. 13 Middle School at first, but later she had a falling out with the school because of her professional title, arguing that she wanted to leave No. 13 Middle School and go to No. 2 Middle School, a key middle school.Hu Mei has a low degree and has only been to a normal school for two years. She can teach elementary school, but it is difficult to teach middle school.Qiang Wei did work for her, but she refused to listen and insisted on entering No. 2 Middle School.There was no way, Qiang Wei entrusted someone to transfer her to No. 2 Middle School, and as a result, conflicts arose.She struggled to say nothing, and her student grades plummeted.After asking Qiang Wei for advice, the school transferred her to the logistics. Hu Mei not only didn't appreciate it, but also said that Qiang Wei used power to squeeze her against her and prevent her from achieving anything.Qiang Wei was so angry that he really wanted to get her to Jiayuguan again.The back office is at school, which is like an idle corner, so Hu Mei felt a sense of loss, and Qiang Wei seldom went home, so she thought Qiang Wei must have someone else in his heart, trying to get rid of her.Later, she really discovered some things about Qiang Wei, such as people often calling him late at night after returning home, and there were often some inexplicable text messages on the phone, etc.The most irritating thing is that two years ago, Qiang Wei went to the provincial capital in person, and took Zhou Yican, known as "a flower" in the education circle, to Heyang as his assistant.Hu Mei decided that Qiang Wei and Zhou Yican were working together and were not clean. Hu Mei is still nagging, but Qiang Wei is not just annoyed, he has everything.He threw down his chopsticks and said with a dark face: "Is this meal still for people to eat?" "I like to eat, but I don't like to eat! Anyway, there are people who accompany you every day to eat delicious food and drink spicy food. Of course you don't have an appetite for the food I cook." "Hu Mei, you can't finish, what do you want to do if you push your nose and face?" "What do I want to do? You do something shameful by yourself, and you ask me what I want to do?" Hu Mei didn't show weakness when she heard Qiang Wei raised her voice. Qiangwei's posture of a bloody battle. Come on, let's not eat this meal.Qiang Wei sighed in frustration, packed his things and prepared to go out.When Hu Mei saw this, she burst into tears: "Your surname is Qiang, I knew it, you are annoying me now, you look down on me, you go, don't enter this door again after you leave." Qiang Wei hesitated for a while, but was still cruel, and came out. Standing on the crowded street, Qiang Wei was inexplicably sad, and the street lights flickered, reflecting his slightly haggard face. Later, he came to Binhe Road and walked by the Yellow River for more than an hour.Couples of snuggling couples, flirting cheaters, sisters soliciting customers, migrant workers and old people bargaining with their sisters with tickets in their hands, all irritated his eyes.Xu Yanrong's face suddenly flashed in his mind.The night breeze is cool, the Yellow River is surging, and the city by the Yellow River presents him with all kinds of things.This night, he finally endured it and didn't call Xu Yanrong. Zhou Yican really let go of her courage. In the current situation, she really can't let go.Qiao Guodong is completely unable to work now, and Qiang Wei has caused Lao Kui to burn out, so he doesn't have the energy to take care of other things.A lot of work naturally went to her.She first urged the Water Conservancy Bureau to make a report to the provincial department. She wanted to send it in person, but she couldn't get away, so she had to explain to the director on the phone.The director understood her situation very well, and said with relief: "You don't have to run away yourself, I will coordinate this matter myself." Zhou Yican was very moved, and at the critical moment, someone still extended a friendly hand to her.The head of the Water Conservancy Bureau went to the provincial capital, and she came to the desert reservoir.No matter who saw such a scene, it would not be easy.The sun is still so hot, it's not hot, it's poisonous, why can't the desert sun be gentler?Director Sun followed her in fear. He had prepared for the worst and was ready to be punished at any time.But on this day, Monday Chan was weird, she didn't get angry at anyone. A short on-site meeting was held on the embankment, and Chan talked about a few points on Monday.The first is to find ways to meet the needs of the people who pull water. At the same time, we must pay attention to safety, maintain good order, and avoid bad behavior such as grabbing water and selling water.Zhou Yichan's worries were not superfluous. It was like this in the desert. As long as the water in the reservoir fell below the warning line, some people would start to trade water in private, including the employees of the reservoir.It was precisely because of this concern that she resolutely rejected the suggestion of the reservoir management office to issue invoices to the people who pull water.As long as an invoice, things will be chaotic.The second point is also the real purpose of her coming to the reservoir this time.She asked Director Sun to make a report to the Municipal Planning Commission to reopen the project on the leakage project in District 2. "This time, you should consider the project in detail, and bring up any problems in the location." Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Director Sun eagerly took out a report from his bag and handed it to her. Director Sun may want to make meritorious deeds too much, and paying off meritorious deeds is the best way to make up for a dead sheep. Unfortunately, his report has a wrong tone, and what Zhou Yican wants is not the same thing. Zhou Yican took a hasty glance in front of everyone, her brows tightened.What Director Sun wrote was not a project approval report, but an engineering accident report. In addition to listing a lot of bad things about the engineering company, he also specifically mentioned the matter of acceptance, saying that the acceptance inspection was jointly held by the Water Conservancy Bureau and the construction management department. It is just a subordinate unit, there is no substantive power in acceptance, etc. Zhou Yican put away the report and stared at Director Sun's face for a long time. What a complicated and frightening look that was.Finally, she handed the report to Director Sun: "You keep this for yourself." With just that, she turned around and left the embankment, and walked down to the parking lot by the woods. Director Sun's feet froze on the embankment, he couldn't figure out why Zhou Yican didn't take this away? On the second day after returning to Heyang, Zhou Yican called the deputy captain of the Public Security Bureau.According to her information, after Jia Yifei, the director of the Sha County People's Congress Office, was killed in a car accident, Qiang Wei suggested to the traffic police department to close the case hastily, and the party responsible for the accident paid compensation in a very short period of time. Crying and making noise, but soon, also silent.Up to now, Zhang Hanqiu is hiding in the desert like a normal person, and that calmness has to be suspicious.Zhou Yican firmly believes that there must be an ulterior motive behind this car accident.Reminiscent of the fact that Jia Yifei went to the Municipal Party Committee many times before the accident to report the situation to Qiang Wei. Qiang Wei also criticized Jia Yifei by name at a standing committee meeting. Just when she was going to ask Jia Yifei alone to learn something, Jia Yifei died suddenly in a car accident. The situation that the deputy captain investigated was the same. He also said that the two traffic policemen who handled the case at the beginning have both been promoted.Zhou Yican finished listening, and said calmly: "Continue to investigate according to your plan. If you don't have enough manpower, you can mention it to me." The deputy captain quickly shook his head: "That's enough, it's not good if there are too many people involved in this kind of case. " As soon as the deputy captain left, someone came to report that Jiuduntan was engaged in malpractice for personal gain, and that the matter of shutting down wells and pressing fields had not been implemented at all. "Is there such a thing?" Zhou Yican raised her head in surprise. "It's absolutely true. The township and the county co-operated to coax them. On the surface, they said they were shutting down the wells, but in fact, none of the wells were shut down." "How is this possible?" Zhou Yican couldn't help but be shocked, no wonder Qin Xiyue has opinions on her, no wonder the people below hesitated to prevaricate her and deal with her as soon as she asked about closing wells and pressing fields.According to the division of labor in the city, this job was handled by a deputy mayor, but this person seldom reported to her, and whenever he had something to do, he always bypassed the government and went directly to Qiang Wei. Zhou Yican forced herself not to let out the anger in her heart, but she couldn't figure it out. The governance of the Huyang River Basin has become an increasingly acute topic. Duntan Township, how dare you go against the provincial governor so blatantly?She really wanted to pick up the phone and call Zhang Xiangsheng, Deputy Director of the Provincial People's Congress. She wanted to ask whether the resolutions made by the Provincial People's Congress could be overturned by anyone who wanted to. Finally, she held back! She believed that someone must know the inside story, and she might be the only one who was concealed! In the evening, Zhou Yican was writing a letter of advice to the provincial people. She also had a lot of ideas about closing wells and suppressing fields, and she wanted to present them in the form of advice.There was a knock on the door suddenly, and it was Jiuduntan Township Changmao Wanli who came in. Among the cadres in Sha County, Mao Wanli was the one who followed Zhou Yican wholeheartedly. This might sound harsh, but it was the truth.When Mao Wanli went to Jiuduntan, he was "assigned" by the Shaxian County Party Committee after he caused trouble in another township.Zhou Yican met Mao Wanli during a work inspection. At that time, she felt that this person was rough, not like a township cadre. Then she thought, the work in the countryside is rough, not like the city government. Maybe this kind of person is the worst. Suitable for.Furthermore, she has a point of view, people who have made mistakes are very active in the process of correction.Officially, which cadre does not want to improve, even if it is a cadre who has been punished and demoted.If this kind of person is used well, maybe one day he will do great things for you.She saw Mao Wanli at the sand control site that day. He was ashamed, shirtless, and sweat and sand painted stained pictures on his body. Just because of this, Zhou Yican thought he could endure hardship. , can mingle with farmers.At present, it is easy to find cadres who do not make mistakes and do not have problems. There are many, but there are few cadres who dare to make mistakes and can blend with ordinary people openly!Zhou Yican was moved by Mao Wanli that day, so she praised him at the inspection meeting, but she didn't think about it, so she formed a romantic relationship with Mao Wanli. Mao Wanli feared that he would never forget that praise for the rest of his life.Since being "assigned" to Jiuduntan by the county party committee, the word "praise" has become his distant relative, and he will never visit his door again.Mao Wanli was distressed and anxious about this, but there was nothing he could do about it. He couldn't be cheeky and ask the leader for praise, right? Unexpectedly, the new mayor affirmed him so much, and said that he has ideas and methods in his work. If the comrades in the development zone can be like him, our development zone will have hope.After that, in Mao Wanli's heart, Zhou Yican was in his mind.日后，他也找过两次周一粲，周一粲很客气，也很热情，不但嘘寒问暖，还表示出一种愿望，想让他做九墩滩的乡党委书记。当然，周一粲没有明说，也不可能明说，毛万里却从她的语气里，感觉出这意思。 有时候人的感觉就是这么怪，毛万里如此粗糙的人，竟也能感觉出市长话里的意思来。 周一粲说过，但凡有抱负的人，就应该有机会施展才华。施展才华毛万里不想，做书记，他想，很想。在开发区做上两三年书记，就能打到县里去，如果周一粲这棵大树还在（奇怪，仅仅两次接触，毛万里就将周一粲视为大树了），他的前程真可谓不可估量。人生就是这样，对基层的小干部来说，上面有个人，比什么都强。毛万里甚至想，如果周一粲早一点能来河阳，他能落到这个下场？ 真是说曹操曹操就到，白天周一粲还想过要找毛万里，了解了解情况，这么大的事，毛万里为什么不跟她汇报？没想，晚上毛万里就给到了。这天的周一粲用了点儿小计策，并没急着把话题提出来，她倒要看看，毛万里会不会自己说出来？她很亲切地请毛万里坐下，沏杯茶给他，然后道：“小毛啊，最近怎么气色不大好，是不是又遇上不顺心的事了？”周一粲原来管毛万里叫老毛，后来搞清楚他的年龄，改称小毛了。毛万里三十二岁，不过面相很老，看上去足有四十岁，没办法，沙漠里风吹日晒，大自然的力量，谁也抵抗不了。 “整天跟老百姓嚷仗拔毛，能顺心吗？”毛万里垂头丧气地说，他今天来，就是找周一粲诉苦的。这九墩滩乡，他实在蹲不下去了。 “嚷仗？开发区的问题不是已解决了吗，怎么，老百姓还有意见？” “解决？谁给解决？前些年的补偿款一分没落实，今年又让关井压田，本来井里就没水，关不关的也无所谓，这一说关，老百姓意见马上就有了。井是他们凑钱打的，谁家都贷了款，信用社天天上门讨债哩。这倒好，上面一说关井，老百姓立马就找乡上要钱，说是要了给信用社还款。” 周一粲听到这，忍不住了，脸一沉道：“你跟我说实话，九墩滩这边到底关没关井，压没压田？” 毛万里本还想多发几句牢骚，一看周一粲变了脸，立马止住了话头：“周市长，这……” “怎么，你也不说实话是不？想不到啊，你们对关井压田是这态度。乡干部都这认识，老百姓的工作怎么能做好？我还以为，你毛乡长的认识能高些，原来你还是跟过去一样，没一点提高。” “周市长……”毛万里让周一粲的批评弄紧张了，他还以为周一粲也不愿意让关井，哪知…… 周一粲的脸越发阴了，她都不知道该怎么说下去。看来，在河阳，她不知道的事情还很多，她这个市长，当得可真是有意思啊—— 毛万里不敢含糊了，斗争了半天，才道：“周市长，我一直没敢告诉你，关井压田，我们只是……在口头上宣传了一下，没敢真关真压。” “为什么？”周一粲的声音猛就高起来。 “是县上暗示我们这样做的，怕出事。再者，杨书记也是这意思，他说应付一下算了，别跟农民动真的，惹出麻烦，还是我们乡上的事。” “这个杨常五，他怎么能这样，胆子也忒大了，竟敢拿省上的政策当儿戏！”周一粲哗地发起了火，毛万里吓得缩在沙发角上，身子由不住地抖。周一粲发了一阵火，放缓声音：“小毛啊，关井压田，是人大代表秦西岳同志经过几年的调查和论证，提出的一条综合性措施，省委省政府对此方案很重视，省人大也在常委会上表决通过了这议案，它是解决胡杨河流域干旱缺水、生态恶化的一条根本性措施。市委市政府多次强调，一定要顾全大局，不能只站在河阳一个市的立场上，置全流域的生死于不顾。你们居然玩虚的，居然跟省委省府唱对台戏。这事我会调查下去，看看到底啥人在从中作梗。既然你今天来了，我顺便把自己的态度说出来，你是乡长，是政府的一把手，这些事，是你的分内工作。一个人不管在啥时候，都应该把自己的分内工作做好，不能因为别人随大溜自己也随大溜。关井压田是有争议，但我们必须有一个认真对待的态度，这种欺上瞒下耍滑头的做法，是非常可怕的！你回去好好想一想，九墩滩的问题怕不只是关井压田，到底你们瞒了多少，虚了多少，我想你首先应该给自己一个交代，其次，对组织，对群众，也该有个交代。”说到这，她把话收住了，她觉得今天有些冲动，她不该冲动的。 “周市长——” “好了，你先回去吧，我还约了客人，回去好好想一想，想清楚了再找我。”周一粲的脸已经很冷了，毛万里再想坐下去，就很难。他艰难地起身，战儿抖儿地说：“市长你批评得对，这次回去，我一定……” “好了好了，你也甭给我尽表态，表态的话，我不想听。我还是原来那句话，你毛万里是一个有头脑有思路的人，应该在那个岗位上干出一番成绩来。你这个样子，可让我有点失望啊。” 毛万里揣着一颗扑扑乱跳的心走了，周一粲自己，也陷入了沉思中。 周一粲决计去趟省城，她要找那个叫麦瑞的小姐，瑞特公司至今没有消息，令她甚为不安。就在她提起电话要打给办公室的时候，桌上放的手机响了，来电显示是周铁山。周一粲犹豫了好长一会儿，还是接通了手机。周铁山在那边粗着声音说：“怎么，大妹子，一看是我，不想接是不？” 周一粲没说话，她现在真是不想理周铁山，沙漠水库的事，让她隐隐感觉到，周铁山这人，危险！可惜自己以前对他关注不够，了解就更谈不上！ “怎么，还在为那事生气啊？放心，不会有事的，出不了一周，水就调来了，工程的事，我保证，属于我的问题，不用你大妹子发话，我自己会解决。再怎么着，也不能给你大妹子脖子底下支砖。”周铁山的口气还是那么友好，那么把事情不当回事。 周一粲却在犯难，对这个人，到底理还是不理？ 僵了一会儿，她硬着头皮说：“说吧，又有啥指示？” “大妹子，你这是杀我啊，我一介草民，哪敢跟你大市长发指示。下午有没有安排，想请你吃顿饭。”周铁山的声音十分夸张。 周一粲想拒绝，但又觉得拒绝不了。有些人，有些关系，真是难处理。这也是她到河阳后感受最深的东西，无奈，却又充满挑战、充满诱惑。其实这世界上，最难处理的，还是人与人的关系，你得设法与不同的人打交道，你得学会跟不同的人过招。更重要的，这个过程中你还不能丢失掉自己，更不能被别人左右。要做到这点，难啊！周一粲一开始是想努力做到的，也想为此而坚决地拒绝掉一些诱惑。可结果呢，到今天她才发现，诱惑不是你想拒绝就能拒绝得了的，诱惑无处不在，它不一定是钱，也不一定是色，它甚至不一定来自别人。你心中的某个念头，某种欲望，还有野心跟目标，一旦跟别人的欲望和目标发生关联，诱惑便有了。多的时候她想，诱惑就在自己身上，每个人的内心深处都有一口陷阱，这陷阱里什么都有，就看你能不能把它控制住。但你真要控制住了，你的人生怕也就暗淡无光了。 现在，她就立在陷阱边上，明知道跟周铁山交往下去，会踩到更多陷阱，但她又不能不去踩。 人的脚步，原本并不由着自己。谁让她体内老是涌动着一股欲望之火呢？现在让她放下那些目标，那些野心，几乎不可能。 那她就只能冒险！ “说吧，啥地儿？” “'上海滩'怎么样，那儿新添了几道菜，请你品尝品尝。” “你真是能吃啊，哪儿新添了菜，你都知道。”周一粲调整了一下心态，跟周铁山打起哈哈来。 “我当然能吃，你们不都说我这个老板是吃出来的吗，我要是不吃，岂不是辜负了领导们一片厚望？” 周一粲没再多说话，将电话轻轻压了。 “上海滩”大酒楼位于河阳市最为热闹的大十字——浙江大厦的十二楼。浙江大厦是四年前修的，到目前为止，它还是河阳最具现代气息的高层建筑。当时修这幢楼，周铁山的建筑公司死了四个人，差点儿惹了官司，这事据说还惊动了齐默然。那时周一粲还在省上，但“周铁山”这个名，她已是有所耳闻。等她到了河阳，铁山建筑公司已更名为铁山集团，按时尚点的话说，就叫组建了航空母舰。铁山集团挂牌时，齐默然亲临现场，为其剪彩。周铁山跟齐默然的关系，正是从那时候在社会上悄然传开的。 这是一个雷区，周一粲一直不想碰，也从来不敢去猜测。她想自己能避过这个雷区的，现在看来，还真是有点难。特别是沙漠水库的事发生后，她已经身不由己地走进了这个雷区。 算了，不去乱想了，乱想是会扰乱脚步的。 周一粲准时来到“上海滩”，热情四溢的服务小姐将她引领到黄浦厅，周铁山已等在里面。看见她，周铁山笑容可掬地站起来，这次他没称大妹子，而是称呼了官衔：“都说周市长是一个守时的人，果不其然。” 周一粲没接他的茬，扫了一眼包房，问：“人呢，不会就我们两个吧？” “跟市长大人吃饭，别人哪够分量？”周铁山说着，为她拉过椅子，恭敬地请她落座。 周一粲泰然自若地坐下了。 周铁山一点都没感觉到异常，或者说感觉到了，只是装没感觉。周铁山是谁啊，一年三百六十五天，有三百天就在请政府官员吃饭，剩下的六十多天，是在陪官员们的老婆和儿子。他不但吃出了一个铁山集团，更吃出了一身本领。拿他的话说，官员们在餐桌上咧一下嘴，他就知道哪儿有了问题。凭着这身武艺，他不但打拼出了一个响当当的集团公司，自己获得的荣誉，更是多得数不清。目前他不但是全国优秀企业家，还是全国人大代表，去年他又获得全国“五一劳动奖章”，几乎该享有的，都有了。 过瘾啊！这些荣誉和利益面前，委屈算个啥，冷脸算个啥，难道他受过的委屈和冷脸还少？甭说是周一粲给他冷脸，就算齐默然给，他也一样不在乎！ 他爽朗地笑了一声，冲门口招了一下手，就有五位花枝招展的服务小姐款款而来。这下，轮到周一粲吃惊了，虽说她经过的场面也不少，跟企业家吃饭更不是头一次，见过的服务小姐，更是多得数不清，但今天这五位，还是把她震住了。 她有片刻的失神，不，是失态。等意识到自己的目光在服务小姐身上盯得过久时，才惊然收回，端起水杯，喝了一口水，然后强作轻松地道：“干什么，你想选美啊？” 周铁山又是朗声一笑：“让市长大人享受一下这儿的服务，顺便也提点宝贵意见，以便我们改进。” 周一粲再次受惊，啥时候这地方也是周铁山的了？以前只听说他跟这儿的老板关系不错，没想到…… 周铁山这才装作忽然记起什么似地说：“不好意思，一直没顾上跟你汇报，一个月前，我将这儿买下了，七楼到十五楼，这样招待起客人来，方便。” 周一粲哦了一声。这一声哦听似平淡，里面却有不少味儿。 浙江大厦七楼到十二楼，都是餐饮娱乐，加上十二到十五楼的宾馆桑拿，算是河阳最显档次的一条龙服务。一气买下九层，周铁山的实力不小啊。 “这也叫肥水不流外人田吧。”她又跟了一句。 “市长大人笑话我了，我一心想收购河化集团，可你们不批，钱放着没用，不如先小打小闹一阵。” 此话一出，周一粲就明白，今天这顿饭是啥目的了。 五位小姐忙活了一阵子，餐具茶具一应儿摆好，笑吟吟站在了他们身后，两个服务员侍候一个人，余下一个，随时听候周铁山使唤。周铁山将提前点好的菜单捧给周一粲，请她过目。周一粲扫了一眼，简简单单六道菜，外带两碗粥，两道面点。她心里想，这一道菜，少说也值一千吧。等菜上来，她就傻眼了。她虽贵为市长，但如此豪华如此奢侈的吃法，她还是头一次见。 第一道菜叫“双龙戏凤”，两只龟甲色眼朦朦地盯着一只乌鸡，其状，其态，做得活灵活现。河阳的龟甲都是死龟甲，就算个别酒店有活的，那也是蔫不拉唧只剩一口气的。今儿这道菜，龟甲显然是刚刚空运过来的，说不定还是派专车候在机场，第一时间就拉来的。比起南方那些大酒店的龟甲，一点儿也不逊色。乌鸡就更让周一粲吃惊。乌鸡周一粲当然吃过，它是大补品嘛，对女人尤其有药膳作用。可这只乌鸡，是正宗的江西泰和鸡。在如今这个啥都爱造假啥都爱冒充的年代，能吃到江西泰和鸡，真是一件奢侈的事。 更奢侈的，今儿这顿饭，压根不用你动手，如果再懒一点，嘴都不用自己张，身后那两位如花似玉的小姐，会一点一点喂你。
