Chapter 686: Meeting at Tian Shang Ren Jian

Chen Meng called me on the train back, telling me that she and the people from the Municipal Petition Bureau had taken the petitioning masses back to Hengyue City.

My heart stirred, and I asked her, "Who came from the Petition Bureau?"

Chen Meng laughed, "You didn't ask, I forgot, you are someone from the Petition Bureau." She lowered her voice and said, "The people sent by the Petition Bureau this time have quite strong working ability and have a set of methods for doing mass ideological work."

I laughed, "Don't look down on the Petition Bureau, a place where dragons and tigers are hidden, what kind of talent is not there."

"That's true," Chen Meng sighed, "For example, you, are a dragon, or a tiger down the mountain."

"Why is it a tiger down the mountain?" I asked strangely.

"Because the tiger is hungry and goes down the mountain to find food," she giggled, "A hungry tiger, as long as it sees meat, its eyes will turn green."

I pondered for a while, although I knew she had words in her words, I couldn't break it, so I smiled faintly, "Nonsense."

Chen Meng laughed for a while and asked me, "The person sent by the Petition Bureau this time is called Xiao Yu. I haven't seen this person before. It is said that he was newly transferred in. Do you know this person?"

I didn't make a sound, gave a light "mm".

Chen Meng said excitedly, "I see this person's ability to handle things is very remarkable. If he goes under your hands, he might be one of your tiger generals."

I laughed dryly, thinking in my heart, I swept him out of the house. Even if he has the talent to settle the country, putting a tiger to sleep under my eyelids, can I close my eyes?

How could I not know Xiao Yu's ability to handle things? But he can only be a sacrifice. The so-called one general succeeds and ten thousand bones dry up, without him as a cushion, I will be tied up in the Industrial Park and achieve nothing.

"Have a safe journey," I hung up the phone in a hurry.

Chatting with Chen Meng can only stop at the point. She is a very sensitive woman and has the sharpness of a professional woman. She can dig out sensational news from a word of others, so how can she not be curious and vigilant about my behavior?

The petition of the original residents of the Industrial Park, the Mayor didn't inform me. The Mayor didn't tell me, naturally there are his considerations and thoughts. I certainly won't take the initiative to ask him. Sometimes pretending to be confused is the smartest performance.

I suddenly respected Lilian. He knows how to use people and uses them just right. The petition of the masses in the Industrial Park is itself a very tricky matter. Common people petition, nothing more than for their own interests, and have no other thoughts. But to satisfy their desires, let alone Xiao Yu, even if he Lilian, and I stand in front of the petitioners, we are equally helpless.

He can use Xiao Yu, firstly because Xiao Yu went out from the Industrial Park and is familiar with the situation. Secondly, it is also telling me that he reused the person I transferred over, which is giving me face. Thirdly, he just used this opportunity to test Xiao Yu's working ability. One stone three birds, just right, moistening things silently.

Once the feeling of respect overflows, all previous impressions vanish, replaced by a brand new feeling. Looking back at Lilian's people and Lilian's things, everything feels natural and logical.

The feeling of loving the house and its crow arises spontaneously, feeling that Li Mei is not only smart but also as beautiful as the morning star.

Chen Meng and the others went back, and the petition matter stopped there. This is a great help to my upgrading of the Industrial Park. If it is not handled in time, and the matter is made to a certain level, let alone upgrading, it might be possible to kill the park with one stick. After all, the stability of the common people and social harmony are the mainstream.

Time passes like water, just seeing the waves at the source, and suddenly flows into the sea.

During this period, I was anxious. I couldn't stay here waiting for news. But without accomplishing things, how can I explain to the Mayor when I go back?

Standing at the window, I looked at a courtyard in the distance. The courtyard is a typical building of the previous dynasty, with blue bricks and white walls, and the courtyard is locked. A row of pigeons stood on the roof, suddenly flew up, and a pleasant pigeon whistle came.

Ouyang Qiu has been silent, not even a phone call. A few times I went to the gate of his unit and wandered, cheered up several times, but finally didn't have the courage to step in half a step.

Ouyang Qiu won't not handle things after taking money. After all, he is a cadre, and cadres won't not pay attention to the influence. Although people who sell tea eggs in Beijing say they know people in Zhongnanhai, everyone knows that they are just chatting. If you really want them to handle a matter, you might not even find the door.

When people are anxious, they sleep less.

For several days in a row, before dawn, I woke up early. Waking up and having nothing to do, I was as irritable as a lion trapped in a cage, walking back and forth along the room.

Li Mei was happy all day long, coming to my room every day to ask, and after getting the information of "nothing", she was filled with smiles, asking me if she could go out for a stroll?

Whenever this happened, I would wave my hand and let her go out alone. She went out for a day, and reported the whereabouts of the day when she came back in the evening, saying she went to the Forbidden City, and then said she went to Badaling. Once it was said that she went to the Shisanling Reservoir, and she was amazed, saying the project was huge and the ghost axe was divine.

The Beijing Office Director was busy like a top all day, driving a broken van, taking the people from the Beijing Office, and putting out fires everywhere.

There are quite a few people from Hengyue City petitioning in Beijing, mostly trivial matters. Nothing more than dissatisfaction with the local government, wanting to come to complain to the Emperor. They come to Beijing, generally won't get a solution, the best result is to be transferred back to the local handling. In this way, a considerable number of people haven't even figured out the southeast, northwest, and were brought back to their original place by this group of people from the Beijing Office using soft and hard tactics. In this way, the Beijing Office Director is the fire-fighting captain of Hengyue City in Beijing, how can he be idle?

Of course, all parts of the country are the same, almost every region in Beijing has a fire-fighting captain.

The Beijing Office Director came to my room, full of apologies, and said these situations, mostly wanting me to understand that he had no time to accompany me. I smiled and let him be busy, don't worry about me.

The administrative level of the Beijing Office Director is not low, it is a figure like the Deputy Secretary-General of the Municipal Government. And to be the Beijing Office Director, in addition to the administrative level, more importantly, he must have certain connections in Beijing. Otherwise, he won't know a few big members, and he will only be scolded everywhere.

Li Mei went out to play in the mountains and water every day, happy and tireless. The Beijing Office Director put out fires everywhere, his feet didn't touch the ground. Xue Bing seemed to disappear suddenly, without any news, leaving me alone, staying in the room every day, governing by doing nothing.

Zhu Huayu and a group of people went to the coastal area to invite people to go home for the New Year, and there was no news. I seemed to be suddenly closed, and there was almost no contact with the outside world.

Until a week later, Ouyang Qiu suddenly called me, saying there was a place worth seeing, and asked if I was interested.

I asked casually, "Chief, what place?"

Ouyang Qiu spat out four words: "Tian Shang Ren Jian."

My heart paused, and then I was overjoyed.

Any official who has been to Beijing knows what kind of place Tian Shang Ren Jian is. Going to that place is burning money.

Ouyang Qiu asked me to go, absolutely not for no reason. He also knew that it was a place to burn money. Although we local cadres have quite a lot of expenditure rights, the destination of each sum of money still has to be named. As a capital official, he won't treat us local cadres as big heads, after all, they are cadres with quality.

Thinking like this, Ouyang Qiu asked me to go, the only explanation is that the matter has a clue. For things without clues, he shouldn't open his mouth to let me accompany him to burn money.

I agreed happily, agreed on the time and place, and then lay on the bed peacefully to recharge my energy, waiting for the time to arrive and then set off.

At dusk, Li Mei returned as scheduled. She flew into my room like a clumsy swallow, shouted exaggeratedly, "Director Chen, guess where I went today?"

I hurriedly sat up, smiled and asked, "Where did you go? So happy, picked up money?"

Li Mei pursed her lips and smiled, "It's almost the same as picking up money."

"Tell me about it," I said with interest.

"I tell you, I went to see the old man today," Li Mei's face was covered with a look of reverence, and her eyes were actually wet, saying, "I almost cried."

I understood where she went. Of course, I have also been to that place. Although I was nervous and excited when I went, I didn't have her exaggeration.

"Any thoughts?" I asked with a smile.

"Yes! Too much!" Li Mei calmed down her emotions, sat on the chair on her own, picked up the cup of tea I drank, raised her head and drank a few large mouthfuls of water, looked at me and said, "Great man is a great man, majestic!"

I didn't want to talk to her about this, after all, it involved sensitive things. So I urged her, "Have you eaten? If not, go eat quickly."

"Ate," Li Mei touched her stomach, seemingly feeling that her movements were indecent, smiled shyly, and said, "Very full."

"Go rest," I started to issue an order to chase guests.

After a while, I was going to set off to meet Ouyang Qiu. That place is not suitable for a girl like Li Mei, I can't take her with me.

Li Mei saw me urging her to go, a bit unhappy, pouted, rolled her eyes at me and said, "You don't want to talk to me?"

I shook my head and said, "No. Because I'm going out immediately."

"Where to?" she asked hesitantly, "Do I need to go together?"

I shook my head again to refuse.

Li Mei became more unhappy, pouted and said, "I want to go."

"Not allowed to go," I refused firmly.

Li Mei stared at me strangely, making my heart hairy. When a girl stares at you, it is basically the prelude to an outburst.

But she didn't outburst, but suddenly laughed, pointed at me and laughed strangely, saying, "You must be inconvenient, right?"

There is only one situation where a man is inconvenient, which is to do things that cannot be seen. But meeting Ouyang Qiu is not something that cannot be seen. Not only is it not, but it is upright. However, what makes me have unspeakable hidden feelings is that the place Ouyang Qiu asked me to meet is "Tian Shang Ren Jian". Just because of this name, taking a girl is inconvenient.

I hesitated and said, "It's not that I don't take you, it's just that the person I want to see tonight doesn't want to be known by others. So you rest well at home, maybe starting tomorrow, we will be busy."

Li Mei hesitated and said, "I understand." She stood up, tidied her hair and said, "I'm going out."

Her back was a bit lonely, and her steps were slow and sluggish.

I didn't have time to care about her feelings. Ouyang Qiu's phone call was still in my ears. My contact with him was only known to three people. Me, him, and Gan Lu. Other than that, no one else should know that we are familiar. Otherwise, he will let go of my business. ===== CHAPTER 687 =====
