Chapter 6 Chapter Six

Shu Peide, the boss of Tuyuan Company, approached him around the bush, insisting on asking Guan Yinda for help, and begging Secretary Tao to write a signboard for their company.Guan Yinda slapped the door tightly and said, "Secretary Tao has instructed me not to put up any signboards in the future." Shu Peide, on the other hand, sat in Guan Yinda's office and refused to leave.He called from Section Chief Guan to Brother Guan, and finally he talked about the big truth: "Brother Guan, it's not that I, Shu Peide, want to use the tiger skin as a banner, but I want to fight for the status and development of private enterprises. My Tuyuan company is currently Although it is not the first private enterprise in Xizhou, I dare say it has the best development prospects. The government said it would support the development of our private enterprises, which is good. But in practice, it hinders us more than helps us. Close Brother, we are in trouble!"

Shu Peide said a lot, as if Tao Fan didn't write an inscription, the government's support for the development of private enterprises is empty talk.Naturally, this is not the case.Guan Yinda just wanted to send him away earlier, so he agreed to report to Secretary Tao.Shu Peide thanked him a thousand times, and said that he knew what he was like as a brother.Guan Yinda felt uncomfortable after hearing this.How many are there?I dare not take gold from you! Guan Yinda originally wanted to prevaricate, but Shu Peide pursued him relentlessly.He came to look for Guan Yinda every now and then, and it lasted for hours.Guan Yinda couldn't get angry, so he had to keep making up words to coax people.Almost no one saw Guan Yinda lose his temper, and everyone said that his self-cultivation was really good.Why doesn't he want to get angry?Sometimes when people push me, I really want to beat the table.But he can only smile.He couldn't let others say that Tao Fan's secretary was too airy.When Zhang Zhaolin was the secretary-general, he always told him: the secretary is the face of the leader, and it has something to do with the image of the leader.Once, Guan Yinda encountered something and felt wronged. Zhang Zhaolin emphasized at the meeting: the secretary is the leader's face, the leader's eyes and ears, and the leader's left and right hand!Guan Yinda was annoyed when he heard this, and cursed secretly: Damn, the secretary is the facade, eyes and ears, and left and right hands. They are just organs one by one, and they are not a complete person anyway.In the old days, it was not derogatory to say that civil and military officials were the court's eagle dogs and lackeys; a few years later, it would be derogatory to say that the secretary is the face, eyes and ears, and right and left hand of the leader?

Shu Peide only dared to look for Guan Yinda, because Tao Fan was too evil.When encountering other leaders of the prefectural committee, Shu Peide would have gone to the door by himself.Guan Yinda didn't expect Shu Peide to be so difficult.He originally thought that he only needed to procrastinate for a while, and Shu Peide would know what was going on, and he would not look for him again.There is an important method of leading the work, which is one word: procrastination.Many leaders use this method to deal with those difficult things, and the situation is smooth and stable.But it was Guan Yinda's turn to use it once in a while, but it failed.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and went to Tao Fan: "Secretary Tao, Shu Peide, the general manager of Tuyuan Company, has been looking for me many times, and I want you to write a signboard for his company. I returned him, but I couldn't get back. You can tell me about the situation of this company." I understand it very well, and it is still a good example of the healthy development of private enterprises.” Tao Fan was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Recently I have received letters from several private business owners, saying that the relevant departments below talk about supporting the development of private enterprises, but in actual work they are blocking, blocking and suppressing. There should be an attitude here. Well, I agree to write a signboard for him. Yinda you check it out, it’s no longer an example.”

Guan Yinda was secretly delighted, he didn't expect Tao Fan to agree so readily.He knew that Tao Fan was not a casual talker, but he didn't immediately tell Shu Peide that the matter was settled.He didn't notify Shu Peide until Tao Fan finished writing the words.Shu Peide said all the words of thanks on the phone, and then rushed to Guan Yinda's office in ten minutes. Shu Peide opened Tao Fan's inscription, and his face immediately glowed.He tried to hide his excitement, but he couldn't close his mouth.He laughed for a long time before thinking that he should say a few polite words.He bit his lip, trying to close his mouth.But the mouth seemed to be made of rubber, and it opened again with a flick.

Guan Yinda said: "Old Shu, please sit down. Secretary Tao has already said that he will no longer give inscriptions to any unit. This time he made an exception, which shows that Secretary Tao attaches great importance to the development of private enterprises." "That's it, that's it." Shu Peide nodded in response, his face still couldn't help being happy. Guan Yinda also said: "The significance of the word Secretary Tao's inscription is to show that private enterprises are an important part of the socialist economy. This idea should not stay in words, but should be implemented in action."

"Exactly, exactly." "However," Guan Yinda adjusted his sitting posture, leaned back, and his eyes naturally became far-reaching, "Old Shu, your company must strengthen self-discipline in the future development. Because Secretary Tao wrote the inscription for you, you are It has attracted the attention of thousands of people. Therefore, you must operate legally, speed up your development, and strive to become a model of individual and private businesses in Xizhou." Shu Peide said: "With the support of the leaders, I am confident to make the company better."

"These are all Secretary Tao's intentions." Guan Yinda smiled, calming down his tone, "The prefectural committee has high hopes for you, so you can't tarnish Secretary Tao's face." Shu Peide swore: "Please tell Secretary Tao, Section Chief Guan, I will use the company's better benefits to announce the good news to him. I, Shu, guarantee with my personality that I will never embarrass Secretary Tao." Guan Yinda smiled and nodded, but did not make a sound.Looking at Shu Peide's fat head, he really doubted that there was any personality in it.How Shu Peide got rich is a mystery in Western State.It is said that when he was in business in his early years, he lost money in a mess and owed a lot of debt.People suddenly disappeared.Five or six years later, he suddenly appeared in Xizhou and was already the domestic agent of a foreign company.For a few years, he looked around and said he wanted to invest.Two years ago, he registered his own company, saying that he would no longer work for foreigners.Some people suspect that he is just an empty shelf and has no money in his pocket.But when he paid back the other person's account, what he ordered was cash.

Shu Peide is very good at handling things.He made two pieces of Tao Fanti's company signboard: one is a neon light box, which is installed on the roof of Tuyuan Company, and can be seen in Xizhou City; the other is carved from sandalwood, and is hung at the main entrance of Tuyuan Company above.I don't know where Shu Peide got such a good sandalwood board, which is more than one meter wide.The production is also particular. After the sandalwood board is sawn, it is intentionally not trimmed. The shape is random, and even the bark remains intact.The characters are emerald green, and the sandalwood boards are old-fashioned, which looks simple and elegant.Once, Tao Fan passed by the door of Tuyuan Company in a car, and he paid attention to the sandalwood signboard.The car passed by in a flash, and Tao Fan actually turned his head and stared at it for five seconds.He seldom looks back, whether walking or sitting in a car.He is used to looking straight ahead, with deep and distant eyes.Tao Fan didn't say anything, but Guan Yinda understood in his heart.He thought that Tao Fan was very satisfied with the sandalwood plaque, and he finally didn't mess things up.

Shu Peide and Guan Yinda got to know each other very well, and would come over to sit and sit if there was nothing to do.He was also quite knowledgeable, so he was afraid to miss Guan Yinda's affairs, so he chatted a few words and left.Once, Guan Yinda told him: "Your sandalwood signboard is well done, Secretary Tao is very satisfied." Shu Peide smiled and said, "Everyone in Xizhou knows that Secretary Tao is a scholar with great taste. I guess Secretary Tao likes this style and dare not make it too tacky. But neon light boxes must be done. That's how it is in business , you have to be more thoughtful in every aspect.”

Seeing that Shu Peide was so smart, Guan Yinda secretly admired him.Shu Peide laughed, the fat on his face swelled into two round lumps.In Guan Yinda's impression, a person with Shu Peide's face should be very dull.But this fat-headed and big-eared man happened to be extremely clever.Slowly, Shu Peide appeared in Tao Fan's courtyard from time to time. Everyone in Xizhou official circles knew that Tao Fan's house was difficult to enter.Once, when Guan Yinda sent Tao Fan home, it happened that Huang Dayuan, deputy commissioner of the Administrative Office, came to report on his work.Tao Fan asked as he walked into the house: "What's the matter with you?" Huang Dayuan followed Tao Fan, which meant he wanted to follow him into the house.Tao Fan suddenly turned around and stood at the door with a blank expression on his face.Huang Dayuan stepped back with the foot he had just raised, and looked for a step: "I won't go in to report orally, the report is here, please have Secretary Tao look it over." Tao Fan accepted the report, turned around and entered the room.Guan Yinda saw Huang Dayuan's face was very ugly, so he was embarrassed to get out of the car and greet him.Seeing that Liu Ping was reversing the car, Huang Dayuan stood aside to avoid it, his face still slumped.Guan Yinda had no choice but to press the window of the car and asked, "Mr. Huang, are you going home or going down the mountain? Let Xiao Liu see you off." Huang Dayuan waved his hand, too lazy to look him in the eye, and said, "Let's go." Guan Yin Da asked Liu Ping to back up slowly and let Huang Dayuan go first.Huang Dayuan raised his head and left with his bag in his arms.Liu Ping was also alert, and deliberately let Huang Dayuan go a little further before reversing the car and going down the mountain.After a while, the car passed by Huang Dayuan.Guan Yinda glanced secretly, seeing that Huang Dayuan still had a black face.Liu Ping couldn't help but said: "Chief Guan, Secretary Tao is so prestigious!" Although Shu Peide went to Taoling every few days, Tao Fan never let him into the house, and he didn't talk to him too much. Every time he met, he asked, "What's the matter?" leave.But Shu Peide can always find an excuse to report a few words to Tao Fan.Tao Fan didn't criticize the note every time, but mostly said a few words about him, blaming him for the big things.Shu Peide nodded and smiled, appearing to be convinced. One night, Shu Peide knocked on Tao Fan's door.Aunt Lin opened the door, her expression was very polite, but her words were firm: "Xiao Shu, it's you. Old Tao won't have guests at night, you know." Shu Peide said: "I know, I'm very sorry. Aunt Lin, I won't go in. It's like this. A friend gave me an old inkstone. I think Secretary Tao can use it." Aunt Lin waved her hand and said, "Xiao Shu, Lao Tao, you know, he won't want it." Shu Peide said: "It's just an inkstone, not a valuable thing. I'm holding a monk's comb, it's useless." She couldn't push it away, so Aunt Lin said, "You can put it here. If Lao Tao curses someone, you have to take it back." Early the next morning, Guan Yinda went to Taoling on time.Tao Fan was admiring the old inkstone, looking at it over and over again.The inkstone is shaped according to the objects, and it is antique.The inkstone pool means deep mountains and old pools, with ancient spirits and strange spirits; the strange rocks on the bank of the pool are rugged, and the ax is not exposed; the high bank of the deep pool is a stretched lotus leaf, and a frog on the lotus leaf is bulging its eyes and kicking its legs, and it will jump into the pool in an instant.The black of the ancient pool, the green of the lotus leaves, and the yellow and brown of the frogs are all the natural colors of stones. Guan Yinda repeatedly sighed, and said directly: "The creation is miraculous, it is simply unbelievable." Tao Fan nodded and said, "This is a fine Duan inkstone, very rare." "Where can such a good inkstone be made now?" Guan Yinda asked. Tao Fan said: "I have looked at it carefully, and the inscription on this square inkstone is worn out, but it must be an ancient inkstone." Tao Fan always arrived at the office a few minutes earlier.Today, I was five minutes late because I was admiring the inkstone.
