Chapter 4854
The meeting lasted for a whole day. Although the theme of the meeting was anti-corruption and clean government, Yang Tianyu made a clear-cut speech at the meeting, and leaders of local governments also expressed their stance at the meeting, but after the meeting ended, the Municipal Party Committee still held a banquet at the Municipal Party Committee reception house to entertain all participants for dinner.
Looking at the land and water delicacies and fine wines on the table, Zhao Desan suddenly felt that today's meeting was very ridiculous. The theme of the meeting was clearly about anti-corruption and clean government, but just after walking out of the Municipal Party Committee hall, the revolutionary tradition of the broad masses of party members and cadres being 'able to eat and drink' had not changed.
Looking at everyone talking and laughing, Zhao Desan thought to himself, damn it! Forget it, eat what should be eaten, drink what should be drunk! He pulled out a chair and sat down, sitting around a table with district mayors from other districts. Everyone started talking and laughing. As the banquet progressed, after three rounds of drinks, everyone started to flatter each other. As the youngest district mayor at this table, Zhao Desan was naturally flattered by others. Zhao Desan was naturally not to be outdone, and for others' praise and compliments, he also responded with flattery.
The atmosphere in the restaurant hall of the entire Municipal Party Committee reception house was extremely lively. The sound of clinking glasses and laughter rose one after another, which was endless. It didn't look like the scene of an anti-corruption and clean government warning meeting that had just been held. However, such a scene was nothing strange to Zhao Desan. As the banquet progressed, Municipal Party Committee Secretary Yang Tianyu and Mayor Zhang Dewang gradually became the protagonists. Everyone scrambled to hold up their wine glasses to toast them. Zhao Desan looked at the scene where Yang Tianyu and Mayor Zhang Dewang were surrounded by three circles inside and three circles outside, smiled, picked up his wine glass, and drank by himself. Almost everyone else at his table picked up their wine glasses to toast Yang Tianyu and Zhang Dewang.
Just when Zhao Desan picked up a glass of wine and looked up, he suddenly met a pair of eyes in the distance. The wine Zhao Desan had just poured into his mouth was choked out. Liu Xuemei, the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee sitting in the distance, saw Zhao Desan's embarrassment and covered her mouth and laughed softly.
Zhao Desan hurriedly wiped his mouth, looking extremely embarrassed. Immediately after, his mobile phone suddenly vibrated a few times. Zhao Desan hurriedly took out his mobile phone and saw a text message from Liu Xuemei on it: Drink less, you send me home later!
Zhao Desan didn't know how to reply to this text message. He looked up at Liu Xuemei and saw her staring at him charmingly. He hurriedly moved his gaze aside to cover up the panic in his heart.
After a while, when everyone had finished toasting Municipal Party Committee Secretary Yang Tianyu and Mayor Zhang Dewang, Zhao Desan walked over unhurriedly with a glass of wine. He came to the table of Yang Tianyu and Zhang Dewang, raised his glass, and said respectfully with a smile: "Secretary Yang, I toast you a glass."
Seeing Zhao Desan coming to toast, Yang Tianyu, who had already pushed away a few glasses of wine, picked up a glass of wine and stood up very readily, saying with a smile: "Comrade Xiao Zhao, you have done a good job in your work. Kong Shenghui's matter is an individual case. I am still very relieved that you are presiding over the work in Chanba District. Young man, very capable, you have made great contributions to the district in the past few years."
Others at the table hurriedly echoed Yang Tianyu's words and nodded, all looking at Zhao Desan with envy, except for Mayor Zhang Dewang who was sitting next to Yang Tianyu, whose smile was a bit forced, completely a look of smiling but not smiling.
"Come, drink it!" After Yang Tianyu finished speaking, he smiled and clinked his glass with Zhao Desan's wine glass, tilted his neck, and drank a glass of wine.
Zhao Desan also drank it in one gulp very readily. Yang Tianyu smiled and patted Zhao Desan on the shoulder and sat down again. Zhao Desan refilled the wine and came to Mayor Zhang Dewang on the side, accompanying him with a smiling face and saying: "Mayor Zhang, I toast you a glass!"
"I've had too much to drink, I can't drink anymore, my head is a little dizzy." Zhang Dewang, who was fine just now, immediately covered his head and waved his hands.
In front of everyone at the table, he had come to toast with a smiling face, but was ruthlessly rejected by Zhang Dewang. This made Zhao Desan feel very embarrassed. In front of Yang Tianyu, he deliberately said to Zhang Dewang: "Is Mayor Zhang dissatisfied with my work?"
Stimulated by Zhao Desan, Zhang Dewang immediately said somewhat excitedly: "What are you talking about? Secretary Yang is very satisfied with your work, how can I be dissatisfied? I really can't drink anymore."
Zhao Desan chuckled and said: "Then Mayor Zhang, you please yourself, I'll drink it?"
Yang Tianyu seemed to see that Mayor Zhang Dewang had some prejudice against Zhao Desan, so he said on the side: "Old Zhang, your drinking capacity shouldn't be that bad, right? Look at Comrade Xiao Zhao holding the glass and standing for so long, aren't you not giving him face?"
Being said by Yang Tianyu, Zhang Dewang looked a bit forced to pick up the glass and said: "Then I'll please myself, Comrade Xiao Zhao, you drink it!" Just as Zhao Desan raised the glass and hadn't touched Zhang Dewang's wine glass yet, Zhang Dewang took back the wine glass, took a light sip, meant it, and put down the wine glass.
