Chapter 4 Chapter Four

On Monday morning, as soon as Dongfang Evergreen went to work, he called Jiang Shuichang's secretary Wang Yuanhui. Wang Yuanhui was the deputy director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, but he also served as Jiang Shuichang's secretary. Using official words, he called to follow Jiang Shuichang.Generally speaking, the secretaries of the leaders are very smooth in dealing with people, so it is easy to get in touch with them.As soon as the phone call was made, Dongfang Changqing reported his family name and said, "Hello Director Wang, I am Dongfang Changqing from the Cultural Bureau." Wang Yuanhui also looked very friendly on the other side, and said, "It's Director Dongfang. Call me?" Dongfang Changqing smiled and said, "I'm taking the liberty to call you, but it didn't affect your work, right? That's right. Last weekend, the employees of our cultural system film company collectively petitioned and surrounded the municipal committee building, which caused a bad influence. , After the incident happened, we persuaded the masses to leave, but I have always felt uncomfortable. We failed to solve the problems for the leaders. On the contrary, we caused troubles for the leaders. The Standing Committee did not go to review. I would like to make an appointment with you today. Please ask Secretary Jiang for instructions and ask him to take some time out of his busy schedule. I would like to conduct a review with him in person. Report to him on the work of the bureau."

Wang Yuanhui pondered on the other end, as if hesitating.Dongfang Changqing felt a little cold in his heart, Wang Yuanhui's little trick could not fool him, Wang Yuanhui deliberately made things difficult for him.The leader's secretary is actually a function of uploading and issuing. If subordinates want to see the leader, they usually have to make an appointment with the secretary first. Usually, they just give the leader a briefcase and a teacup.Even with such a little power, the leading secretaries will use it to the extreme and benefit from it.Before Jiang Yuanhui reported to Secretary Jiang Shuichang, he pretended to be pondering, obviously underestimating his political experience of Dongfang Evergreen. It was a bit unlucky that he couldn't continue his glory, but this little trick is still clearly seen.Sure enough, Wang Yuanhui said at the other end: "Director Dongfang, it's not that I don't want to help, this matter may be a bit difficult, how about this, let me find a chance and report to Secretary Jiang, okay?" Dongfang Changqing said with a smile: "Then There is Director Lao Wang, if there is a chance, let’s meet and have a drink at the bar, I heard that Director Wang has a lot of people, I still want to learn about it.”

Wang Yuanhui laughed at the other end, and said, "Director Dongfang seems to hold a good amount of alcohol?" Dongfang Changqing laughed loudly and said: "Reluctantly, you haven't heard of it. If you don't drink half a catty, you can drink eight taels. If you are not a township head, you are a county head? My brother has also been a county head at any rate. He didn't do a good job. It's grown." Wang Yuanhui also laughed and said: "It seems that Director Dongfang's drinking capacity has really been tested. Okay, okay, find a chance to have a few drinks with you, brother. You want to see Secretary Jiang, we will take it slowly. Find a chance, and I will call you as soon as I have a chance. It's just that the secretary is busy during this time."

Putting down the phone, Dongfang Changqing spat out, and spit out the blockage in his heart. He couldn't help regretting that he shouldn't have called Wang Yuanhui. Now that he had called Wang Yuanhui, he couldn't call Jiang Shuichang again, because it would offend him. Wang Yuanhui.However, fortunately, Wang Yuanhui's last words were a little sincere. It seems that it is not too difficult for this person to settle.As the saying goes, a key can open a lock. In fact, everyone is not monolithic. As long as they are willing to work hard and endure trouble, they can all be taken.Dongfang Changqing thought of the classic dialogues in old movies. Those old movies called the ideological work of being a human being as attacking the fortress. Attack Wang Yuanhui's outer bunker first, and then attack Jiang Shuichang's central bunker.Thinking about it, I couldn't help laughing.

Reporting to the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee is not enough, but the Propaganda Department must report.Hong Linfeng was easy to deal with, and Dongfang Changqing didn't go to the Propaganda Department or call the department office, so he called Hong Linfeng's cell phone directly.As soon as the phone call was made, Hong Linfeng said, "Dongfang, what's the matter?" Dongfang Changqing said, "Minister Hong, are you free?" Hong Linfeng laughed at the other end and said, "Did you ask the leader like that?" What's the matter?" Dongfang Changqing said: "It's nothing, I want to report to you." Hong Linfeng laughed and said, "Okay, where did you say?" Hong Linfeng said, I was looking for a teahouse or something. The times have changed, the economy has developed, and the official situation has also changed. Now I can’t talk about work in the office. I go to a hotel to talk.As for the office, it has become a place to discuss private matters.Dongfang Changqing said: "As you like, how about going to our Wenyuanyuan teahouse?" Hong Linfeng said with a smile: "You can do as you say, and the guest is up to you." Dongfang Evergreen said: "Then I will drive to pick you up Well, your car is resting."

Putting down the phone, Dongfang Changqing dialed Baixue's mobile phone again. It turned out that the Wenyuan Teahouse was jointly owned by the employees of the cultural center. Because of poor management and continuous losses, everyone proposed to sell it.Baixue sold the tea house at a low price, raised funds to renovate it, and the business was booming.Dongfang Changqing asked Bai Xue to prepare to receive Minister Hong, Bai Xue said: "How to prepare? Like receiving you?" Dongfang Changqing laughed and said: "Xue, that won't work. I, Dongfang Changqing, can give up everything except You can't." Bai Xue said happily on the other side: "I'm just kidding you, idiot." Bai Xue then told Dongfang Changqing that the two most beautiful girls in charge of performing tea art in the tea house asked for leave today, did you invite them back?Dongfang Evergreen smiled and said, "Look, Minister Hong is the most direct head of our cultural department."

After making an appointment with Bai Xue, Dongfang Changqing walked to the deputy director's office next door, intending to call all the deputy directors together, but after thinking about it, he dismissed the idea.He only nodded to Hu Song and the others, and said: "Old Hu, I have something to do when I go out, you can deal with it at home." Hu Song smiled and said, "Don't worry, Director." Because Hu Song said, Su Yiyuan didn't say anything, It was Wei Hong who was pestering to go together, and said with a smile: "Director, where are you going to be chic, take me with you." Dongfang Changqing said with a smile: "Okay, let's go together." Wei Hong really said Standing up, followed Dongfang Changqing downstairs, Dongfang Changqing laughed as he walked, Wei Hong asked: "What are you laughing at?" He asked: "It seems that this trip is a self-inflicted trap?"

Dongfang Changqing laughed.Wei Hong is a young woman in her thirties. She used to be a singer in a theater troupe. She somehow stood out from the crowd of cultured people. She was promoted several times and became the deputy director.Born as an actor, she is naturally slim, beautiful and charming.Wei Hong's husband is the sound engineer of the theater troupe, and he is a dull gourd whose voice can't get out of his throat.For some reason, Wei Hong was actually interested in him as the bureau chief, and liked to hang out with him when he had nothing to do, and said some crazy things half-jokingly and half-seriously.Dongfang Changqing pretended not to understand.At that moment, Dongfang Changqing said: "Director Wei, I was worried that no one would take care of me, but you came here on your own initiative. It is not too much to say that you have thrown yourself into a trap." Wei Hong asked what was the matter, and Dongfang Evergreen Said: "Go to the municipal party committee to make a review. People from the film company have surrounded the municipal party committee. If we don't go to review in our bureau, can we still go to receive the reward?" Wei Hong hurriedly shrank back when she heard this, and said, "I won't go, I won't go Now, I still think it's something." Dongfang Changqing laughed and said, "It's up to you if you don't go this time." But Wei Hong had already turned around and ran upstairs.

Dongfang Changqing smiled secretly, went downstairs to pick up the car, turned on the key, and the new Audi engine made a pleasant sound.The Cultural Bureau is on Wenhua Road in Zixu City, a few stops away from the Municipal Party Committee, and it takes only half an hour to arrive without traffic jams.At the municipal party committee, Dongfang Changqing parked the car and called Hong Linfeng's cell phone, saying, "Minister Hong, Changqing is waiting downstairs." Hong Linfeng said, "Wait a minute, I'll come." After a while, I saw Hong Linfeng coming out of the gate, carrying a huge briefcase, with his oily black hair flipped back in a neat way.Behind Hong Linfeng was a tall man in his forties, and Dongfang Changqing thought, Hong Linfeng himself said that the scope should not be large, so why did he bring a stranger with him?Thinking about it, he hurriedly greeted them and said, "Minister, hello." Hong Linfeng stretched out his hands and shook hands with each other.Hong Linfeng pushed the tall man beside him over again, and said, "Let me introduce you." Before he finished speaking, the tall man shouted, "Dongfang, so it's you." Dongfang Evergreen Now he recognized it, the other party was Wan Hao, his college classmate.Dongfang Changqing said: "Old classmate, why are you here? I almost don't recognize you."

Hong Linfeng was dumbfounded by the scene in front of him, and said, "Why, do you know each other?" Lin Hao hurriedly said, "Not only do you know each other, Minister Hong, Wan Hao and I are old classmates for four years in college. I didn't expect to be here Goodbye." Then he said: "Dongfang, I heard that you and Zhou Xian are married, and your classmates are successful in love. You two are the only ones left. Is she okay now?" Dongfang Evergreen smiled and replied: "Okay." , the three of them got into the car and drove directly to Wenyuan Tea House.Along the way, Dongfang Changqing and Wan Hao chatted about their previous college life, and they felt that Hong Linfeng was neglected.It turned out that Wan Hao was already the executive deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee.Dongfang Changqing thought that when he was a college classmate, Wan Hao was actually not an outstanding character. He didn't expect that his official career would be so prosperous, and he was actually the deputy director.Thinking about it, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. Although hard work is very important in a person's life, innate conditions are even more important. Wan Hao is the son of a cadre, and his father was originally a deputy director of the Provincial Economic Commission. higher than the height of a mountain.But I am a farmer's son, not to mention being an official, I am very lucky to be assigned to a township cadre after graduation.Dongfang Changqing often has a kind of thinking that in this place in China, a person’s generation is determined when he is born. Hard work can determine a person’s future, but not his height.It's like jumping high.If a person stands on a one-meter-high platform, he only needs to jump lightly, and no matter how much he jumps below one meter, he will not be able to surpass his height.Just like the grass on the top of the mountain, though tiny, is taller than the big trees on the mountain.

After a while, the car arrived at Wenyuan Tea House, and Bai Xue was already waiting outside the door.Seeing Hong Linfeng, Baixue greeted him with a smile and said, "Minister Hong, welcome. I heard that you are here. I have been waiting for a long time." Hong Linfeng smiled and held Baixue's hand and said, "Your name is Baixue, I am I have an impression." Bai Xue smiled and said: "It's an honor for the minister to remember the little girl." Hong Linfeng laughed and said: "You are a lesbian, we have to have a poor memory for lesbians, otherwise there will be problems ?” Dongfang Changqing laughed along with him, but his heart was not very comfortable, he felt a little sour, Hong Linfeng's words and Bai Xue's shocked appearance made it hard for him to accept.Dongfang Changqing used the excuse that he was going to park on the first floor, got in the car again, and drove to the underground parking lot.After parking the car, I wondered if I was being too stingy. The leaders like to joke a little when they see beautiful women.Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel relieved. The design of Wenyuan Tea House is simple and unsophisticated, which really shows the exquisiteness of folk architecture in the south of the Yangtze River.These were all done after Bai Xue took over, so Dongfang Evergreen looked at Bai Xue with admiration.At the moment, after everyone sat down in a large box, a waiter came up and handed hot towels. After everyone wiped their faces, Bai Xue said: "The three leaders are all elegant people. Would you like to enjoy the tea art performance in this teahouse?" " Dongfang Changqing turned his attention to Hong Linfeng, the rules of the officialdom are all reflected in the details, please invite the leader to eat together, what dishes to order, what wine to eat, the subordinates should not decide.The same is true for drinking tea. When Hong Linfeng saw Dongfang Changqing looking at him, he smiled and said: "What are you looking at me for? You treat me, and you decide." Dongfang Changqing said with a smile: "Minister, you are pampering your subordinates. How about this, Minister Wan is both the leader and my old classmate, so you decide." Wan Hao didn't refuse, and said, "Okay, I haven't enjoyed the tea art performance yet." Dongfang Changqing just laughed and said: " Old classmate, you are too modest, right? There are many teahouses in Zixu City, have you ever enjoyed a tea art performance?" Wan Hao said: "It's true, we usually drink tea just to drink tea, and by the way, talk about something. In fact, there is nothing strange, for example, you and I live together in the same city and promote the cultural system, but we haven’t seen each other for more than ten years, and others will not believe it.” Seeing what Bai Xue said, she patted her hand, and the door of the box opened silently, a handsome young man walked in with a carved wooden tea tray, put the tea tray on the coffee table, and stepped back with her hands hanging down.Then, two beautiful girls came in and stopped in front of the guests. Suddenly, a golden rooster stood alone, with one foot raised above his head, and the long-mouthed teapot in his hand was slammed on his back. Sword, I saw a line of amber-like tea shot out of the thin tea spout, poured accurately on the teacup on the tea tray, without any splash.The three of them applauded enthusiastically.Next, the two girls turned their backs to the guests again, lowered their waists suddenly, and their heads almost touched the ground. The long-mouthed teapots were lifted high by them, and the long mouths went straight from the deep grooves of their plump breasts to their heads. The quick shot was loud and sound, and it didn't splash at all, arousing more applause. After the performance, Dongfang Changqing took two hundred-yuan bills from his pocket and gave the two girls as tips.The two thanked each other and left.Wan Hao said: "This tea art performance is really extraordinary, and the Chinese culture is really at its peak. If you just drink tea, there are too many ways to catch the eye. There are so many famous tricks in just pouring tea." Hong Linfeng smiled and said: "Chinese tea culture has a long history and is extensive and profound. Tea culture is a combination of tea art and spirit. It flourished in Tang Dynasty, flourished in Song and Ming, and declined in Qing Dynasty. Tea, tea, fire, tea set, environment. Tea art includes: tea selection, water selection, tea cooking techniques, tea set art, environment selection and creation, etc. Tea art background is an important means to set off the theme, it renders the purity of tea, The elegant and simple temperament enhances the artistic appeal. Different styles of tea art have different background requirements, and only by choosing the right background can you better understand the taste of tea.” After listening to Dongfang Changqing, he couldn't help admiring, saying: "Minister Hong is very knowledgeable, and his research on tea ceremony has reached an extraordinary depth." Wan Hao also expressed his admiration, saying: "It is unexpected that a cup of catechu has such deep connotations. In the future, I will ask Minister Hong for more knowledge in this area." Hong Linfeng was always willing to show off, and was praised by the two. He couldn't help but dance with joy, and talked about the tea ceremony endlessly: "Although there are many schools of Chinese tea culture, they all follow certain rules. In order to overcome nine difficulties in the Tang Dynasty , that is, making, separating, utensils, fire, water, roasting, grinding, boiling, and drinking. People in the Song Dynasty paid attention to three points when drinking tea." Dongfang Changqing asked: "Which three points are the most important?" "New tea, sweet springs, and clean utensils are the first, the weather is fine and sunny is the second, and having a drink with elegant and like-minded guests is the third." After hearing this, everyone couldn't help nodding.Said: "The ancients really summed up the main points of tea tasting." Dongfang Changqing said: "Drinking tea with a few people today, I have already occupied these three points, especially Minister Hong and Brother Wan. It is really rare to be elegant." The two hurriedly humbled. Hong Linfeng also said: "Speaking of tea ceremony, there are two specific forms of expression in our country, sencha and tea fighting. Put the tea powder into the pot and boil it with water. This is sencha, which flourished in the Tang Dynasty and is the earliest art of tea. Tasting form. The ancient literati and scholars carried tea and water, and judged the quality by comparing the tea noodle soup and tasting the tea soup. It was called fighting tea. Fighting tea was also called Mingzhan. It is popular in Jianzhou, Fujian. Tea fighting is the highest expression form of ancient tea tasting art. As for Gongfu tea, it is the aftertaste of tea tasting art since Tang and Song Dynasties. What pays attention to is the drinker's drinking skills." After finishing the speech, Dongfang Changqing, Wan Hao, and Bai Xue were all in a daze, unable to speak, only full of praise.Hong Linfeng became even more interested, and everyone chatted about the tea ceremony for a while before turning to the main topic.Hong Linfeng said: "Changqing, you said something on the phone, what is it, tell me." Because of the presence of old classmates, Dongfang Changqing couldn't say anything. When he was muttering, Hong Linfeng said: "Mr. Wan, we are old friends, and you two are old classmates. It's okay." To hide the truth from the Minister, I asked you to come out this time to make a review to you. If something happened to the film company, as the director of the Culture Bureau, I will not blame you." After hearing this, Hong Linfeng pointed at Dongfang Changqing and laughed, and said, "Changqing, what kind of polite words are you talking to me? I can't blame you for the employees' petitions. However, your film company is a matter after all. If there is something The best way is to solve it once and for all.” Dongfang Changqing also laughed and said: "No matter how familiar you are, the leader is still the leader. If you are familiar with it, it will become unruly. To be honest, I wanted to review it with Secretary Jiang first, but I couldn't make an appointment. I thought, let Director Hu Song go to investigate, anyway, Secretary Jiang only recognizes him, and he can get Secretary Jiang." Hong Linfeng said: "It's not easy for us to discuss the leader, but Hu Song's position is still a bit out of place. It turns out that he and Wei Changzhen didn't cooperate well, and they often stumbled. I heard that Wei Changzhen had an accident. He also has something to do with it, it will be difficult for you to be the director and meet such a deputy." Dongfang Changqing smiled and said: "Only you, Minister Hong, understand me. The film company is also in charge of Deputy Director Hu, so naturally he will report to Deputy Secretary Jiang. I think it is not impossible to solve the problem once and for all. I I have a thought, I am immature, I will report to the minister today, whether it is feasible or not, you stand high and look far, and show me the way. Besides, my old classmate is the leader of the province and department, and I also give it to the staff." Wan Hao just laughed, but he thought in his heart, after more than twenty years, Dongfang Evergreen is so sophisticated, and his official speech is impeccable, he couldn't help admiring him, and said immediately: "Don't be polite, old classmate, you were famous in college for your tricks. , the way we think of must work. Fortunately, we are all in one system. If there is something, we may really be able to support it. It is also obligatory." Dongfang Changqing was overjoyed and said: "Then I would like to thank my old classmate first, and I really want to ask for your support in the future. My old classmate, Minister Hong, the cultural department is a unit that uses money and cannot produce economic benefits. This has been the case for many years." I have a big idea in mind, which is to integrate film companies, cultural centers, theater troupes and other resources together to develop the cultural industry. I don't believe it. In this geomantic treasure land in the province, there are more than 4 million people, plus floating population There are about six million people, so there is no need for culture with so many people? Culture really can’t be sold.” Before Hong Linfeng could answer, Wan Hao laughed and said, "Okay, Dongfang, this idea is very good. The construction of the cultural industry is the focus of the central cultural work at present. The central government has been mentioning cultural system reform. As far as the current Judging from the situation, there are fierce calls from all over the country, but not many have actually practiced and achieved success. Our Provincial Department of Culture also intends to cultivate one or two models of cultural system reform, and also has some supporting policies. I will tell Director Yu Tell him to support you. I am ignorant, and I am not very familiar with the reform of the cultural system in various places. I only heard that Liaoning has seen benefits. I suggest that if you have time, go to Liaoning and take a look. Look, check it out." Hong Linfeng said: "Changqing is a person who does business. Your idea is very good. You can form a plan first, find an opportunity to report to the Secretary of the Water Chief and Mayor Xuemin, and then report to the Standing Committee. I think , The reform of the cultural system is also crossing the river by feeling the stones, the key is to have talents who are good at management.” Dongfang Changqing immediately echoed: "The minister is really far-sighted, and his words are right. Talents, especially management talents, are really important. Let's take the film company where the employees petitioned this time. The leadership is not effective. The company The manager’s business is not bad, but his management skills are still lacking, and he’s getting older, so his prestige among the masses is not as good as that of a deputy manager who stays without pay. How can I get rid of this job?” Hong Linfeng said: "Old Mo, I still know well that his management is not good, and he became the manager of the company somehow. Changqing, you are the director of the cultural bureau and the secretary of the party group. You have personnel rights over the secondary organizations below. , It’s really not good, you can move.” Dongfang Changqing said: "It's not that I don't want to move, it's that I don't want to move. After all, Lao Mo has worked for so long, and he has worked hard without credit. To tell you the truth, it's also a bit of a trick." After hearing this, Hong Linfeng smiled and said: "Changqing is a kind person with a kind heart. However, I still want to say a few words to you. You can't be a woman with benevolence. It's not okay to be timid and look forward and backward. As long as you hinder In order to reform and develop, we have to take a drastic step to solve it. Let me express my opinion here, and the Ministry will firmly support you. As for Manager Song, you can give him a better place when the time comes. You don’t have to be so scruples about Hu Song. It’s all for career development. Although it is said to promote democracy, there is still a problem of centralization after all. You are the director of the bureau and the secretary of the party group, so you are responsible for the city of the Cultural Bureau.” After hearing this, Dongfang Changqing couldn't help being excited, stood up and said: "Minister, old classmates, with your words, I, Dongfang Changqing, have a solid foundation in my heart. After I go back, I will hold a team meeting to study our city's culture. The reform of the system should first solve the problems of the film companies.” Seeing Dongfang Changqing's appearance, Hong Linfeng smiled and pulled him to sit down: "Sit, sit, Comrade Changqing, it's good if you have this determination. However, as a leading cadre, you must have far-reaching wisdom and comprehensive planning. I don't know you Do you have a firm mind about the candidate for the manager of the film company?" At this time, Bai Xue just came in to refill the tea for them in person.Dongfang Changqing said with a smile: "There is one candidate, I don't know if it is not in line with the leader's intention." Hong Linfeng said: "Our department has no intention of choosing the leader of the secondary organization of your cultural department. Let it go completely. Tell me, who is this candidate?" "It's far away in the sky, but it's close in front of you." Dongfang Changqing replied with a smile. Hong Linfeng's eyes lit up, and he said, "You mean Bai Xue, it's not bad." When Bai Xue heard her name, she couldn't help being surprised, and said, "Minister, what do I need to do?" Everyone laughed, but Bai Xue was still in the dark, not knowing what they were laughing at.Her ignorant look made the three of them laugh again.Hong Linfeng said: "Comrade Bai Xue, Director Dongfang recommended you to be the manager of a film company. What do you think?" Bai Xue's face turned red all of a sudden, and she said again and again: "No, no, I'm not that material." Dongfang Changqing didn't care about Bai Xue's reaction, and continued: "Minister Hong, old classmate, Changqing doesn't dare to say that he knows people, but he dares to say that he has read a lot of people. The teahouse where we drink tea now was run by employees of the cultural center as a joint venture. Yes, in less than a year, thanks to a lot of confusion, Baixue raised funds to take over, and the renovation was completed in less than half a year. After half a year, the business was booming, and it became the most famous teahouse in Dongcheng District. From this point, it can be seen that Baixue has management skills. "Speaking so that Bai Xue blushed, she hurriedly said: "The leaders are talking about things, I'll go out to deal with other guests." She walked away. Hong Linfeng laughed loudly and said: "Seeing the subtleties, Changqing can be said to have a discerning eye." Wan Hao also said: "If you can manage a teahouse well, you can manage a film company well. In fact, a film company is an enterprise, but there are many people who insist on operating according to the system of the administrative department. So the company doesn't know how to do business, but it is familiar with administration." After talking for a while, it was time for lunch.Dongfang Changqing said: "There is a Hunan restaurant near the teahouse. I wonder if you two like to eat Hunan cuisine?" Both Hong Linfeng and Linfeng said that customers can do whatever they want, so the three of them had a quick meal and a drink at the Hunan restaurant. liquor.After having a full meal, Dongfang Changqing said to Hong Linfeng: "Minister Hong, Changqing has an unfeeling request. I wonder if the minister will allow it?" Hong Linfeng laughed loudly: "Everything is not allowed." Dongfang Changqing said: "Minister Wan, we have been separated for nearly twenty years. God's will let us meet again today, and it is our leader. I would like to ask the minister to give me this opportunity. I will also have an affair with Jiannei. Please invite Minister Wan to a family banquet. How about you as a company?" Hong Linfeng smiled and said, "You have asked for instructions in the wrong place. You should ask Minister Wan for instructions. Minister Wan agreed, and everything will be fine. As for being a companion, what is it if I stand in the middle of your classmates' reunion?" Wan Hao was also very straightforward and said: "I didn't expect to meet Dongfang here. It's really a great pleasure. Speaking of which, there are not many classmates in our university who work and live in the same city. Changqing and I, There is also his wife Zhou Xian, whom we meet once in more than ten years, and it would be unreasonable not to pay a visit at home." Hong Linfeng laughed and said, "All right, let Minister Wan go to you today. One thing, you have to accompany me with wine, otherwise I will punish you."
