Chapter 21 Chapter 19 Fighting for Funds

After several fire inspections, rectifications and re-inspections, Huihua Hotel finally opened for business on New Year's Day in 2002.According to the vision of Huihua Company, it was originally planned to open before the National Day in 2001, but it failed the fire inspection and acceptance several times before, which delayed the overall process. For this reason, Fang Ping had some complaints about He Zisheng, and privately murmured to Sun Mingjie who participated in the acceptance inspection: "Isn't it just a small problem with the installation of the automatic sprinkler system? Isn't it because the emergency landing time of the fire elevator exceeds 60 seconds? Why bother?" Seriously, I am discharged from the fire service, can I not understand? In public places, as long as the width and number of evacuation passages are sufficient, as long as the daily management of the hotel is in place, what major events can happen? As far as I know, 99% of the automatic fire protection facilities are The deaf man's ear—a show, no use at all."

"In case of fire, what should we do?" Sun Mingjie asked rhetorically, "Fortunately, you are still a firefighter, and people outside who don't understand the business are yelling, how can you make a fuss? You also know that once a fire breaks out in a high-rise building, it mainly depends on the construction. The internal fixed fire-fighting facilities supply water to extinguish the fire. If the construction cannot meet the standards and the maintenance is poor, what do you ask our fire-fighting brothers to do? To put it bluntly, you are pushing them into the fire pit!"

Seeing that Sun Mingjie was seriously calculating, Fang Ping laughed and said, "Okay, okay, can I count my mistake? After I've been busy for a while, I'll treat you two to dinner to apologize." The "Apology Banquet" was held half a month later, and it was actually a family banquet for the three families.Fang Ping had just been promoted to the deputy general manager of Jianglin Branch of Huihua Group Company, so he simply took his wife and son back to Jianglin and settled them down.He Zisheng and Sun Mingjie were also very proud. The brigade was rated as the province's 2001 annual fire supervision model unit. They were promoted to be the captain and instructor of the full-time battalion respectively. It happened that Feng Yuanyuan and Jiang Yina were busy that day. All are prepared without missing.

Sitting at the wine table, the three big men don't talk about their appearance, the three children are cute and cute, and the three women are the most distinguished, each with its own merits.Fang Ping's wife, Xie Rong, arranged for the waiters to serve the food and drinks, which was meticulous and thoughtful, but also seemed to be in command.Jiang Yina was sitting upright, like a queen, seeing Sun Mingjie pouring wine into her stomach one after another, passing a random look, Sun Mingjie immediately smiled and begged Fang Ping for mercy, "Can I take a sip?" Feng Yuanyuan didn't talk much, and occasionally Fang Ping exchanged a few sentences about his business experience, Fang Ping looked at each other with admiration, and served wine again and again to respect each other.

After drinking for a few rounds, Fang Ping asked Feng Yuanyuan: "What projects are my siblings planning to invest in recently?" Feng Yuanyuan smiled and said, "My new proposal has been approved by the board of directors not long ago." Fang Ping said, "If it involves commercial secrets, I won't ask." "It's not a big secret. It's just to set up a network information subsidiary company and open hundreds of chain network clubs in Jianglin City. At present, the preliminary preparations have been exhausted. Just look at it. In less than three months, our company's network clubs will be completed." Just like the business outlets of China Mobile and China Unicom, they spread all over our Jianglin City." Feng Yuanyuan looked slightly satisfied while speaking.

Fang Ping put down his chopsticks, "Oh, how did you come up with such an idea! Can this industry make money?" When He Zisheng heard Feng Yuanyuan's idea for the first time, he couldn't help being surprised, and asked: "Since the fire that year, your mother's company has turned to knitting clothing production and hotel management, why did you suddenly think of doing this?" Feng Yuanyuan said with a smile: "We can't continue to expand our business areas? The 21st century is the age of network information, and opening an online club is just to follow the trend. The so-called 'world trend, follow it will prosper', and you can make money without losing money."

Fang Ping clapped his hands and laughed, raised his glass and said, "What a 'follow the law'. Brother and sister are cultural people. For your words and for the reunion of the three of us, I propose, cheers!" Gathered, scattered.On the way home, a half-drunk and half-awake He Zisheng said to Feng Yuanyuan: "You have a good idea, but you have to pay attention to fire safety." Feng Yuanyuan said while driving: "Don't talk about firefighting all the time. We open online clubs, each with an area of ​​no more than 200 square meters and no more than 50 people. It is not a public gathering place, so there is no need to go to your place to declare the opening Fire safety inspection before. You can rest assured that there is nothing to embarrass you."

He Jiaer was coaxed by Sun Mingjie to sip half a sip of red wine, her face flushed, and she lay sleepily on He Zisheng's lap. When she heard her mother speak, she parroted her childishly, "There is nothing to embarrass you." He Zisheng and Feng Yuanyuan were taken aback, and couldn't help but smile at each other. In February, He Zisheng won a large sum of money from Zheng He, and discussed with Sun Mingjie and Wei An, two other members of the general party branch, and planned to invest all of it in the renovation of the No. 1 Squadron's barracks. Sun Mingjie did not agree with this. He said: "Do you think it will be a good thing for you to strive for funds to invest in infrastructure construction like this? Such a large sum of money will be spent and managed by our first brigade, with three or four hundred cadres in the detachment. , Maybe it will make some people jealous. People with ulterior motives will say: Huh, this He Zisheng, Sun Mingjie and Wei An are making small plans, taking advantage of the opportunity of infrastructure construction to eat more and occupy more. Any ugly words will come out, especially you He Zisheng, as the secretary of the branch, you will be the first to bear the brunt of any problems. Why bother! Construction is already enough to make people exhausted, and it is not worthwhile to make yourself in trouble for business."

He Zisheng smiled and said, "You, those who do political and ideological work think deeper and farther than I do." Sun Mingjie said: "This is the reality. The army is not a pure land. Where there are people, there must be villains." He Zisheng lowered his head and said slowly: "We can't be afraid to do things because we are afraid of villains. As long as we do things, there will always be people who make irresponsible remarks. If we want nothing to happen, unless we don't do things. Actually, I don't agree with that The idea of ​​"do more and make more mistakes, do less and make less mistakes, and don't do good". People live a lifetime, sometimes they have to dare to take risks and dare to do practical things. Captain Wei, what do you think?"

"Although Instructor Sun's words are not pleasant to listen to, they are solid and realistic." Wei An first glanced at Sun Mingjie, then at He Zisheng, "However, the two leaders are both from the First Squadron and know the situation in the camp. Seriously. , As the squadron leader, looking at our barracks and facilities, and seeing our soldiers' desperate efforts to put out fire and rescue, I often feel sad and feel ashamed." At this point, his voice sank, "Don't talk about anything else, the training tower Dilapidated, bathing facilities are often broken, soldiers return to the team in the winter, soaked and shivering, and have to line up to take a bath... There were no conditions in the past. We soldiers gritted our teeth and overcame it. It’s not called suffering. Serve as a soldier. However, if conditions permit and we can create a better working and living environment for soldiers, why don’t we do it?”

"Do it! That's it!" He Zisheng made a final decision, "As a firefighter, you must break through the line of fire in battle, and you must have the spirit of breaking through the line of fire in fire prevention and construction! How can you break through if you are afraid of hands and feet? As long as the party committee of the detachment agrees to repair, Let's do it openly, if there is any problem, I, He Zisheng, will take care of it!" Since He Zisheng made such a statement, Sun Mingjie shook his head and stopped objecting. This amount belongs to the additional appropriation of the financial budget for fire protection operations.He Zisheng did not tell anyone, because it was not easy to get the money. According to the practice of the government and the financial department, the budget of the department is prepared in February every year. He Zisheng is determined to strive for a breakthrough in business expenses. He and Gao Xin spent a whole night together. He racked his brains to list the items. .When the dawn broke, he sorted out the three-inch-thick materials and detailed lists, and then carefully checked and revised them one by one. When the draft was finished, it was almost noon, so he hurriedly called Zheng He. Zheng He said on the other end of the phone: "Xiao He, today is the New Year's Eve, are you still at work?" He Zisheng touched his head, feeling bad, and quickly apologized to Zheng He. Zheng He said very kindly: "It's okay, we are also going to work. It's almost lunch time now, you can come to my side for a New Year's reunion." He Zisheng changed into casual clothes and came to the district government guest house as promised. There were only five or six people sitting sparsely in the small private room, and it was obvious at a glance that it was a small-scale reunion.Except for Zheng He and Jin Mei, everyone's faces were unfamiliar.Zheng He's eyes fell on the folder in He Zisheng's hand, and he teased with a half-smile: "Why, you are working hard, and you should make good use of your time for eating?" At this time, the waiter was serving dishes and pouring wine. He Zisheng opened the folder and pointed the number on the list to Zheng He. Zheng He took a look, "Normal business expenses are fine. But, I can't comment on the items you added." He questioned, half-jokingly and half-seriously pointing to a fat middle-aged man wearing glasses beside him , "Xiaohe, let me introduce you. This is Director Wang of the Finance Sub-bureau who was appointed yesterday. If you want to allocate more funds, you have to find him. You can give as much as he says, and do as he says." He Zisheng got up quickly and took the initiative to shake hands with Director Wang. Director Wang greeted him politely with a smile like a Maitreya Buddha. At this moment, Zheng He received a phone call, and then said apologetically to the people present: "Just now the secretary on duty sent a message that an old leader who has retired has come to visit, and I am going to receive him. Go ahead, don't wait." me." Here, He Zisheng looked eagerly at Director Wang. Director Wang took the folder over, adjusted his glasses, and said with a smile, "Captain He, you are really a big talker. The amount of additional funds listed is more than 10 times the normal business expenses." He Zisheng pointed out the reasons for the increase one by one to Director Wang, and said with a smile: "The annual fiscal revenue and GDP growth of our jurisdiction is gratifying, and it is reasonable for the fire protection funds to increase accordingly. Besides, all the funds I listed are available. According to the report, there is absolutely no violation of the policy. The infrastructure construction of the fire squadron really needs the care of the leaders and needs to be improved..." Director Wang seemed quite embarrassed, he didn't talk to him, and he didn't make visual communication, he stared at the glass in front of him and pondered. In order to break the deadlock, He Zisheng was lucky, took the wine bottle from the waiter, poured wine for Director Wang, and said with a smile on his face: "Director Wang, our soldiers have always been straightforward in speaking and doing things. If you are not good enough, you can just criticize me directly." Director Wang grinned, showing a trace of embarrassment, looked at He Zisheng, half joking and half serious, and said: "Captain He means that I won't go straight?" He Zisheng couldn't help being taken aback.To be honest, having been a soldier for many years, he was most afraid of dealing with some local officials, and he always felt that there were landmines everywhere between his words.Besides, this Director Wang had just arrived and obviously wanted to use any opportunity to establish his prestige.He Zisheng secretly glanced at Jin Mei as if asking for help, and saw Jin Mei looking down at the table. Obviously, it was because Director Wang had just arrived, and it was hard for her to come forward to smooth things over.He straightened his mind and said loudly: "Director Wang, as I said just now, our words and actions as soldiers have always been straightforward. Now, I can assure you that I absolutely did not mean that..." After all, Director Wang has been in the officialdom for many years, and at the same time, he doesn't want to get a reputation for being difficult to deal with when he assumes his new post. Besides, the fire police officer in front of him has such a sincere attitude, which also gives him enough face.Immediately, he patted the table and said bluntly, "Okay, as long as you say it." He got up and snatched the wine bottle, poured wine into He Zisheng's glass, and said familiarly, "I just like a straightforward person like you. , I would also like to make you my friend." Then, he picked up his own wine glass with one hand, and grabbed He Zisheng's wine glass with the other, "As the saying goes: if you have a shallow friendship, you will lick it; if you have a deep friendship, you will be bored. " Immediately, he raised his hand to finish off his glass of wine. He Zisheng always loses color when he smells wine, but the current situation has made it difficult for him to ride a tiger, so he has no choice but to take the wine glass bravely, raise his head and pour it directly into his throat. What kind of person is Chief Wang? Let me make a verbal agreement with you: starting with three drinks, I will give you 10,000 yuan for each drink you drink. To be fair, if you drink a drink, I will accompany you, how about it?" He Zisheng looked at the wine glass with a capacity of 2 taels, then looked at the other party seriously, and asked tentatively: "Director Wang, are you joking?" Director Wang deliberately lowered his face, and said, "Since you don't believe me, let me have another drink first, as a start." Immediately, he made a gesture to pour wine into his own glass. He Zisheng reached out and snatched the wine bottle, gritted his teeth secretly, and said, "Director Wang, I'm fine with your words, and I don't need you to accompany me. Let's see how I, He Zisheng, complete the task." Jin Mei's expression froze, and she was considering how to dissuade him. He Zisheng had already poured wine into his glass, and as if fearing that Director Wang would regret it, he poured his head up.In the blink of an eye, after drinking 3 glasses of wine, He Zisheng's face flushed instantly, and he staggered a bit unsteadily. Seeing that the matter had come to this, Jin Mei sneaked out to call Sun Mingjie. When he drank the seventh cup, Director Wang knew that he had gone too far in joking, so he hurriedly stepped forward to snatch the glass with a smile, and said repeatedly: "Forget it, forget it, Xiaohe, I was joking with you. Actually, District Chief Zheng is right. Your funds have already been planned." He Zisheng's head was so heavy that he couldn't lift it up, but he still insisted and asked, "Really...really? How much... how little?" Director Wang spread the five fingers of his right hand, gestured backwards and forwards in front of He Zisheng, and said, "A total of 100,000!" He Zisheng straightened up suddenly, raised his head and thought for a while, and said, "I... still need... 4 cups." Jin Mei knew so much about He Zisheng, knowing that it was impossible to dissuade him, but she still stepped forward and said, "He Zi, you had a drink with Director Wang at the beginning, so there are still three drinks left." On the contrary, Director Wang became even more embarrassed, and said again and again: "Forget it, forget it, Xiaohe, there is no need to drink, I will sign now." He Zisheng pushed him away, "No way! Director Wang, we have made a gentleman's agreement, which must be... carried out!" Jin Mei said: "Okay, okay, I'll pour you wine." Taking the opportunity, she snatched the wine bottle, poured it full, then picked up the wine glass, and when it was shaken and handed to He Zisheng's mouth, the wine in the glass There was very little wine left. He Zisheng's consciousness has been a little fuzzy for a long time, and he has been supported by willpower until now, so he has not discovered Jin Mei's "little trick".After killing the last 3 cups, he grinned triumphantly at Director Wang and said, "Director Wang... I have... completed the execution! It's up to you to sign..." What happened afterwards, no matter how He Zisheng recalled it, it was as if someone had wiped it from his mind with a swipe, without any memory. When he woke up, he found himself lying on a bed in the emergency room of the hospital, on a drip, and Gao Xin was waiting beside him. He looked around ignorantly, and the first words that popped out were: "Why am I here?" Seeing him wake up, Gao Xin breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "You were drunk at the district government guest house. If sister Jin Mei hadn't called, Teacher Sun sent me and Zheng Shaoqing to pick you up, nothing might have happened." He Zisheng said disapprovingly, "Then what else could happen?" Gao Xin said with lingering fear: "At first, they wanted to arrange you to live in a guest house. They saw that Zheng Shaoqing and I were gone, so they handed you over to us. Zheng Shaoqing had some experience. Seeing you like that, he drove the car directly to the hospital. Doctor Say...forget it, forget it, don't talk about it, their doctors always make a fuss." He Zisheng suddenly remembered something, and asked, "You didn't tell your sister-in-law about my hospitalization, did you?" "No, I was afraid that my sister-in-law would be worried, so I didn't call her." He Zisheng felt relieved, pulled out the needle, and said while putting on his shoes, "How much is the medical bill? I'll give it to you." Gao Xin reported an amount, and when He Zisheng took out the money, he realized that he was not wearing a coat. Gao Xin looked at him, smiled and said, "You vomited so badly, I asked Zheng Shaoqing to throw it away, and I put away the wallet and police certificate for you." After questioning, Zheng Shaoqing walked into the ward carrying two bottles of mineral water. He Zisheng's heart ached, because that coat was bought by Feng Yuanyuan as a birthday present for him.After thinking about it, he thought of what Gao Xin said "it's a mess", he knew that Gao Xin usually speaks more reservedly, and seeing Zheng Shaoqing pursed his lips trying to laugh but not daring to laugh, he blushed instantly.He couldn't even imagine his embarrassment after being drunk. In the afternoon of the same day, Director Wang did not break his promise, and even called the brigade in person, asking He Zisheng to go through the payment formalities immediately. Of course He Zisheng was satisfied with winning this sum of money, but thinking of getting drunk, he was really embarrassed to brag about his achievements in front of Sun Mingjie, and even when he saw Gao Xin and Zheng Shaoqing for several days afterwards, he ducked his head and walked away. The general party branch of the brigade formed a resolution on the renovation project of the No. 1 Squadron's barracks, and it was passed after reporting to the party committee of the detachment for approval. Next, it was design, planning approval, and bidding. A series of preparatory work took He Zisheng for two months. In early May, the formal construction began. He Zisheng arranged Zhanlu to be Party A's construction supervisor, while Gao Xin also took charge of the infrastructure finance.After getting the order to show the road, without saying a word, he sent a dozen backpacks to the squadron, where he ate and lived on the construction site. He Zisheng often takes time to wander around the construction site. Every time he can see Zhanlu wearing a straw hat and holding a steel ruler against the scorching sun, either measuring piles or checking the safety of scaffolding, fasteners, wire ropes, wires, cables and other equipment.He Zisheng felt relieved about Zhanlu's work. He thought that he could finally free up his energy to continue working on fire protection. Comfortable days have not passed two days. In the early hours of June 16, a huge fire broke out in Beijing Lanjisu Internet Cafe, killing 25 people and injuring many others. When He Zisheng saw the relevant reports of the fire accident on the TV news that night, his head suddenly exploded.With years of work experience, he knows very well that the crackdown on Internet cafes across the country will definitely start immediately.He quickly dialed Feng Yuanyuan's mobile phone. She was in a meeting, but she still walked out of the venue to listen to his story patiently, and then said: "Don't worry, our company's online club has obtained the relevant licenses from the cultural and industrial and commercial departments, and it is a legal operation. , it’s not a black Internet cafe, and it won’t be closed down.” Feng Yuanyuan never expected that her husband, He Zisheng, shattered her optimism. A few days later, the Jiangnan District Government held an emergency meeting on Internet cafe safety work.Zheng He called by name and asked He Zisheng to speak on the fire safety work of Internet cafes. Before the meeting, He Zisheng thought deeply about the fire safety of Internet cafes, and he came prepared, and talked eloquently: "Although the fire accident in Lanjisu Internet cafes was caused by artificial arson, it reflected the hidden dangers in the safety management of Internet cafes. In terms of fire protection management, since the current fire protection laws and regulations do not list Internet cafes as public gathering places and public entertainment places, our fire protection agency cannot conduct administrative licensing for building fire prevention audits and pre-opening fire safety inspections for Internet cafes, thus giving Internet cafes operating illegally and with unqualified fire safety can evade fire supervision. It has to be said that there are a large number of fire safety hazards in Internet cafes in the whole district and even the whole city." Zheng He listened carefully, nodded, and asked, "So, in the face of the current situation, what suggestions does the fire department have to deal with?" He Zisheng said: "I suggest that when issuing relevant licenses to Internet cafes, cultural, sports and industrial and commercial departments can take fire safety as a precondition. For places that fail to meet fire safety, no licenses will be issued, and the gate will be controlled from the source. Only in this way can we better avoid the breeding of hidden dangers.” His speech caused an uproar in the venue.Some whispered, some shook their heads, and some pondered. Most of the participants thought that He Zisheng's proposal was too advanced and bold. Isn't this clearly putting the fire department above other departments? Zheng He glanced at the venue, hesitated in his heart, and immediately asked the opinions of the two departments of culture and sports and industry and commerce.The heads of the two departments happened to sit together, and the two frowned and whispered for a while, and then continued to speak: "We agree with the fire department's opinion." Their statement surprised Zheng He, and he couldn't help but glanced at He Zisheng. He Zisheng smiled back confidently.He made this suggestion with certainty, because the catastrophic fire in Lanjisu Internet Cafe will definitely make the culture and sports department in charge of Internet cafes and the business department in charge of issuing business licenses feel unprecedented pressure. At a time when social groups are paying more and more attention to life safety In this era, fire safety work is no longer the work of the fire department alone. It will be like a huge network, which not only includes all walks of life, but also requires all functional departments to jointly manage and be responsible. "However," the person in charge of the cultural and sports department expressed his agreement and asked a new question, "How should we manage the various Internet cafes and Internet clubs that have been issued certificates?" Everyone turned their eyes to He Zisheng naturally.Needless to say, he hesitated for a minute.At this minute, he thought of Feng Yuanyuan, and the storm he would face after he said the following words. However, he still said what he had prepared, "I suggest that a joint action to rectify Internet cafes in the whole region be carried out. According to the relevant fire protection technical specifications, for unqualified Internet cafes, especially the insufficient number and width of evacuation passages, it will seriously affect the evacuation and escape of personnel. places, rectification within a time limit according to law, and even ordered to suspend business for rectification.” To his surprise, his suggestion was not only adopted by the district government, but also reported to the municipal government by Zheng He, which set off the "Iron Fist Action" to rectify the safety of Internet cafes in the city. After the meeting, He Zisheng dialed Feng Yuanyuan's mobile phone immediately and "reported" the meeting situation to her in detail. Feng Yuanyuan listened quietly. After listening, she hung up the phone without saying a word.The "storm" that He Zisheng expected did not come.Later, he thought about it, after many years of marriage, Feng Yuanyuan had never had a "storm" with him. Is this her usual temperament, or is it a sign of her indifference and disappointment towards him? Within a few days, the mother-in-law lost her temper.Zhou Ru called and reprimanded him severely: "What's the use of Yuanyuan marrying you? Help her, you can't count on it; the second best thing is to not hold back. I didn't expect that even this is a luxury. You know this How much negative impact will this matter have on Yuanyuan? Sooner or later, I will retreat to the second line, and the company will definitely be handed over to Yuanyuan's management. Do you think the company's shareholders are easy to deal with? The veteran shareholders all regard themselves as masters, how can Yuanyuan A little girl like Yuan is in my eyes. She has worked so hard to accumulate some achievements and prestige, but this time, all previous efforts have been wasted. In just one week, our company has shut down 12 online clubs! At the beginning, we built hundreds of online clubs. The suggestion of the Internet Club was proposed by Yuanyuan, and now those shareholders have something to say. You, you, you——" Later, Zhou Ru probably couldn't find a new word to blame him, so she hung up the phone angrily. He Zisheng decided to apologize honestly. He racked his brains to squeeze out the "menu" for work, and sometimes he could not wait to beg Gao Xin, we are not treating guests to dinner, so please don't list the "menu" too long. Finally, on the second weekend of July, he was able to leave work early.First go to the kindergarten to pick up He Jiaer, then hold her daughter's hand, happily choose a few side dishes in the supermarket, return to the small house where she hasn't seen the smoke for a long time, and call Feng Yuanyuan to go home for dinner. Feng Yuanyuan was full of resentment towards He Zisheng, and she didn't want to talk to her, but when she heard her daughter on the other end of the phone, Jiao Didi sip "Mom", her heart softened like cotton candy. She took out the key and opened the door of the house, and the oncoming smell of cigarette oil made her cough repeatedly. In the lingering smoke of the house, she saw her daughter sitting on the ground nibbling corn and hazelnuts, one bite after another, like a sparrow pecking at food, she couldn't help it Just laughed.He Zisheng heard her cough, walked out of the kitchen holding his nose, and beckoned, "Come and serve the dishes." When serving the dishes, He Zisheng hugged her from behind, and she pushed him, "Dirty, you have oil on your body." He simply held her face with both hands, looked into her eyes, and said earnestly, "Forgive me, okay?" ?" Feng Yuanyuan stared at him, and after a while, she said softly: "We have been married for several years, but you always say 'please forgive me'. This does not seem to be the way for couples to get along." He Zisheng became anxious, grabbed Feng Yuanyuan's hand, and said, "Then you might as well hit me twice." Feng Yuanyuan sighed, raised her left hand as she said, and brushed He Zisheng's right cheek.With her strength, this palm is not so much a slap as a stroking. He Zisheng was overjoyed, and shouted, "Let's eat!" He Zisheng's craftsmanship is naturally indescribable, but Feng Yuanyuan ate this meal carefully, seriously, and slowly, which gave He Zisheng a sense of accomplishment. When the dinner was coming to an end, Feng Yuanyuan suddenly put down her chopsticks and frowned, "It's a bit noisy upstairs." He Zisheng pricked up his ears and listened nonchalantly, "Zhao Fang's sister-in-law is arguing with Lao Yu again, let's eat ours, ignore her." Before eating two bites, the noise upstairs became more and more violent.Feng Yuanyuan pushed He Zisheng, "I'm keeping an eye on Jia'er, go up and have a look, sister-in-law Zhao Fang hasn't made such a big fuss in the past two years, don't worry!" After finally reconciling with Feng Yuanyuan, she gave orders, no matter how unwilling He Zisheng was, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and come upstairs to Yu's house. Pushing open the falsely concealed door of Yu's house, the smoke really filled the air.Several bowls had already been broken on the floor of Yu's living room, and one bowl with a gap was rolling to He Zisheng's feet.Zhao Fang sat on the sofa and wiped her tears as usual, but He Zisheng found that the object of Zhao Fang's "struggle" seemed to have changed today. It was not Yu Manjiang who stood opposite her, but Yu Lisa who had grown into a young man.It was rare for Yu Manjiang to watch from the wall, sitting in a corner of the sofa and quietly watching the development of the situation. He Zisheng smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, what's the matter, did Xiao Sazi make you angry?" Before Zhao Fang answered, Yu Manjiang winked at He Zisheng, "Xiao Sazi will take the college entrance examination this year..." He Zisheng slapped his head, really confused, the child who lost his nose back then has grown into an adult.He couldn't help but turned his head and took a closer look at Yu Lisa. This kid is more than 1.80 meters tall, with a well-defined face, a high nose and a big mouth. He is a cool handsome guy.He had heard that Yu Lisa had always had good grades, did he fail the college entrance examination? "This is the college entrance examination." He Zisheng weighed his words and comforted him. "Sometimes I don't perform well, and it's understandable. Back then, I just failed..." "Woo——" Zhao Fang squeezed out a mournful moan from between her teeth, "Xiao Sazi's conservative estimate is 640 points, and the key points in the previous category are absolutely fine!" He Zisheng was stunned for a moment, "Then why are you crying?" Zhao Fang pointed at Yu Lisa, with red eyes, "Ask this kid, he is so bold that he fills in the early admissions of military academies behind our backs. Not to mention, the three military academies he applied for are all armed police academies! " It turned out that what Zhao Fang was most worried about happened uncontrollably. Yu Lisa applied for the Armed Police Academy because he was determined to do firefighting in the future.He Zisheng comforted him in a good voice: "Well, military academies have very strict early admissions assessment, the admission rate is low, and they have to attend interviews. Even if they have high cultural achievements, they may not be able to be admitted." Zhao Fang caught a glimpse of hope from He Zisheng's words, and stopped crying, but Yu Lisa interrupted abruptly, "If I am not admitted this year, I will retake the course and continue to register next year! I want to be like Uncle He, and work as a firefighter!" Zhao Fang took off her sandals and slapped Yu Lisa on the head, "You're going to die! We have a firefighter in our family who is not reconciled, and you still have to join in the fun. How long do you want me to worry about you? I die early and live early!" He Zisheng hurriedly stopped him, and without paying attention, there was a shoe print on his left cheek, but Yu Lisa didn't dodge it. "Okay!" Yu Manjiang, who was sitting on the wall watching, shouted. He stood up and said to Zhao Fang in a strong tone: "Although the son was born by you and me, but now that he has grown up, he no longer belongs to me or you. He can only belong to himself. He wants to What kind of life path should you choose, as long as you don't kill people and set fires, I will not interfere, and you are not allowed to interfere!" Zhao Fang had never seen Yu Manjiang speak to her in such a tone. She couldn't adapt to it for a while, she was stunned in a daze, and she came to her senses in an instant, looked left and right, and probably realized that she was not the opponent of two big men. Zhong was already in a weak position, and couldn't help feeling sad, ran into the bedroom, closed the door with all his might, and let out a howl. Yu Manjiang shook his head helplessly, walked over and patted his son on the shoulder, "Xiao Sazi, Dad supports you." Yu Lisa was finally admitted to the fire command major of the Armed Police Academy. Zhao Fang's arm failed to twist her son's thigh. This time, she chose to protest silently. At the beginning of September, when Yu Lisa took the train to Langfang, Hebei Province to study, she didn't go to see him off. Instead, she washed and washed at home alone all day, ignoring anyone who told her.In her opinion, her son's choice of firefighting was a spiritual betrayal to her. She worked hard to raise her son, but in the end, this son stood in the same trench as his father who only knew about work and disregarded his family.For her, it was a huge misstep and failure. After the Internet cafe safety rectification action, He Zisheng then organized the brigade cadres to carry out special rectification of public entertainment venues within the jurisdiction, and made great efforts to order a group of units with serious hidden dangers to suspend business for rectification.After that, more and more people took the initiative to come to the fire brigade to apply for construction review and fire safety inspection before opening. Seeing more and more business acceptance projects, He Zisheng discussed with Sun Mingjie to squeeze out a sum of business funds and renovate a business acceptance hall in the office building.The lobby is like a bank counter, and the information required for various business declarations is publicized. Gao Xin leads two newly hired police officers to be in charge.This acceptance model is the first of its kind in the province's public security and fire protection agencies. On the day the acceptance hall was officially "operated", He Zisheng personally stayed in the hall to pay attention to the effect. At around 9:00 am that day, the first person to make a fire declaration came.It was a young man in his twenties, with a good-looking denim bag slung across his shoulders, he came forward and sat directly at the window where Gao Xin was, tapping his fingers on the countertop, "I'm applying to open a KTV." Gao Xin, who was looking at the document, raised her head, suddenly her face changed drastically, she stood up with a "huh", and stepped back several steps, as if she saw a ghost.He Zisheng had never seen Gao Xin lose his composure like this before, so he couldn't help feeling suspicious, and he was a little more careful. Gao Xin regained her composure and said to the young man in front of her, "Lu Le, it's working time now." He Zisheng suddenly realized, no wonder this person looked familiar, it turned out to be Lu Le who he rescued from the car back then.She couldn't help laughing to herself, this person pursued Gao Xin and even chased him from the north to Jianglin, he was extremely sincere. Lu Leman didn't care, and raised his eyebrows provocatively, "I'm also doing business, why, the fire brigade doesn't receive people working today?" Gao Xin glanced at Lu Le, returned to her seat, pulled out the list of application materials, and began to explain from the first item.Lu Le obviously intended to dawdle, he asked all kinds of questions, and Gao Xin answered every question. After half an hour, Gao Xin said to Lu Le, "Mr. Lu, do you have any questions for me to answer?" Lu Lele continued, saying: "I saw a sign posted on the gate of the fire brigade: If you have any difficulties, to find the fire department, please call 119. I am in trouble now." Gao Xin asked calmly, "What difficulties do you have?" Lu Le said: "I just came to Jianglin City from the north, and I'm not used to the taste of food. I haven't been able to fill my stomach for three days." Gao Xin didn't even lift her eyelids, "Please call 114." Lu Le said with a playful smile, "I need manual service." Gao Xin said: "Then please call 110, the police uncle will help you." He Zisheng really couldn't see it, and he sympathized with this Mr. Lu Le very much. He stepped forward and said, "Young man, I will show you the way. There are several northern-style restaurants next to the brigade, and the taste is excellent." When the two went downstairs, Lu Le's hippie face turned into a mournful one, and he said to He Zisheng: "Boss, do I have a particularly cheap image? You saved my life for nothing." He Zisheng was surprised, "You still recognize me?" Lu Le said: "Joke! In the past few years, because of Gao Xin, I have almost become half a private detective. I don't know who is around her. This time, I came prepared, no Achieve the goal and never give up. Boss, you have to help me." He Zisheng looked him up and down, patted him on the shoulder, and encouraged him: "Where there is a will, there is a way." Lu Le was grateful: "Captain He, you are really a good person." He Zisheng signed the approval for Gao Xin to manage Lu Le KTV.Soon, Gao Xin ran into his office without knocking on the door, and threw his signature on the desk, "He Dawei, what do you mean!" He Zisheng found that Gao Xin was angry, and he was quite angry, he said with a smile: "He came all the way, you have to give him a chance." Gao Xin spoke back his words bluntly, "This is my private matter, what right do you have to interfere!" He Zisheng motioned Gao Xin to sit down, poured her a glass of boiled water, and persuaded her earnestly, "I think that Lu Le is really nice, he is handsome, has a good character, and a good family background. If you insist that Qingshan will not relax, you should think about it carefully." 见贺子胜放低姿势劝说，高歆的神色略有和缓，喝下一口水，说道：“我铁定不会选择他，我不会选择这样不成熟的人做我的人生伴侣。” 贺子胜疑惑，“他因为家境优越，大概缺乏生活的历练，还说不上不成熟吧。” 高歆轻轻一笑，“一个性格成熟的男人，不会将人生的砝码过多地押在同一件事情上；一个知进退的男人，不会被女人多次狠狠拒绝后仍然穷追不舍；一个真正懂得爱的男人，不会将爱情作为压力施加在他所爱慕的女人身上。” 贺子胜被高歆的排比句弄蒙了，说：“你的意思，他因为不成熟，所以才会穷追猛打？可是，能坚持这么多年，足以证明真心啊。” 高歆明眸一转，笑道：“我相信他有真心。不过，他的这种追求，在某种程度上是基于没有得到，一旦得到，他会茫然若失，他甚至不知道该怎样继续对待和维护这段感情。所以，既然已经拒绝他第一次，我必定会一直狠狠拒绝，永远不会答允他、接受他。” 贺子胜张大嘴巴，情不自禁地说：“高歆，你太狠了，我从未见过像你这样狠心的女人。”甚至，他不敢想象会有这样狠心的女子。 高歆苦笑道：“我也并不爱他呀。爱情这个东西，一定要基于双方的互相吸引与共鸣，自然而然产生，绝不是任何一方的乞求或者感动。”说话间，她有些无奈地抚抚额头。 贺子胜目光一闪，她的额头上有一片小指甲大小的凹痕。 高歆留意到贺子胜的目光，解释道：“我妈妈说，这是我出生时，护士用产钳助产留下的印记。” 有过这样一番谈话，贺子胜对吕乐只能爱莫能助，重新安排郑少青跟进吕乐新建KTV的事项。此后很多回，他看见吕乐手捧鲜花痴痴地等在大队门口，高歆下班后视而不见，目不斜视地搭公交回家。 很快，大队左邻右舍各个单位的干部职工、居委会阿姨大妈，全都知道消防大队的女警花有一位“情痴”追求者，这成为他们茶余饭后津津乐道的谈资。贺子胜和孙明杰都感觉这件事挺给大队“长脸”，他们没法劝说吕乐退兵，更不可能劝说高歆缴械，于是静观事态发展。 倒是金梅听说此事后，与高歆私底下谈心，说道：“这个人要是能坚持十年二十年，你即便不爱他，在内心某个小角落为他留下一点位置，也未尝不可。” 高歆摇头，“如果不想法子让他撤退，这样拖下去耽搁他的青春，我可真是千古罪人。这对于他太不公平。” 金梅叹息道：“爱情这玩艺儿，由来没有公平可言。如果你纠结于'公平'两字，说明你确实不爱他。” 高歆笑着揶揄金梅，“看来，你是个中高手，我可没有你的本事。听说，当年余副支队长追求过你，可你死活不答应，这件事让他老婆心里一直不痛快。” 说这番话的时候，金梅和高歆坐在一间小小的饮茶室中，金梅慢慢品尝一杯玫瑰花茶，红色的花瓣荡漾在透明的水中，她静默地看花瓣朵朵绽开，陡然间灿然一笑，“我永远也不会告诉他，其实，我同样深爱着他。”
