Chapter 2040

Director Chen saw that Cheng Minxing's attitude was exceptionally firm, so he could only call someone to send two bottles of boiling water over. Once the boiling water was sent in, Cheng Minxing said sorry to Director Chen and closed the door again.

After closing the door, the three people in the audit group took out a few steamed buns from their respective bags and began to gnaw on them. These steamed buns were bought on their way here in the morning and were already cold. However, they ate them very deliciously with boiling water.

The young man in Cheng Minxing's section was named Lin Kangping. He said to Cheng Minxing, "Section Chief Cheng, the Grain Bureau is quite enthusiastic."

Cheng Minxing said, "Xiao Lin, remember one point. In the audit line, you cannot have a good relationship with the audited object, especially you cannot accept invitations or gifts. Otherwise, this audit cannot be done well."

The old accountant from the glass factory was named Shi Anliang. While gnawing on a steamed bun, he said, "Xiao Lin, what your Section Chief Cheng said is all from the heart. As the saying goes, those who eat people's food have soft mouths, and those who take people's things have soft hands. If you accept the invitation of the audited unit and accept the gifts of the audited object, can your audit report still be objective?"

Lin Kangping took a big bite of the steamed bun, nodded and said, "Hmm, Section Chief Cheng is right. Now I feel that the steamed bun is also quite delicious."

Shi Anliang smiled, "I tell you, this steamed bun that has been left for half a day is the most delicious. One bite is full of powder, especially sweet, and then drink a sip of hot tea, the taste is really not bad."

Cheng Minxing was not so serious in front of the two of them. He also smiled and said, "Yes, when we were young, we didn't have snacks to eat, so we would leave the steamed bun for a day or half a day, and then eat it, feeling it was especially delicious."

Lin Kangping smiled, "Section Chief, this is also okay? Is there anyone who eats steamed buns as snacks?"

Cheng Minxing couldn't help but recall things from his childhood. He said, "Not only steamed buns, when we were young, we would put that kind of small potato into the coal ash under the coal stove, simmer it for half a day, and it would be cooked. Then we would dig the potatoes out from inside, that was really fragrant!"

Cheng Minxing narrowed his eyes, while talking, while gnawing on the steamed bun. Several people just recalled the good things they had eaten, while sending those cold steamed buns into their mouths with hot tea, and then began to continue working.

After working for a while, Cheng Minxing heard the door being knocked again. He shook his head and went to open the door. Sure enough, Director Chen was standing outside the door again, followed by three people, two of whom were carrying two plates of dishes each, and another person was carrying a pot of rice in his hand. Director Chen was holding several sets of bowls and chopsticks in his hand.

Director Chen did not allow any refusal, so he took those three people into the office, put those meals on another empty desk, and said to Cheng Minxing, "Section Chief Cheng, this is the dish just stir-fried from the County Party Committee Guesthouse, it's still hot, eat it quickly."

After speaking, Director Chen did not wait for Cheng Minxing to refuse, so he took the people out and brought the office door with them.

The three people in the room couldn't help but look at those dishes. One of these dishes was stir-fried pork kidney, one was braised mandarin fish, one was tiger skin green pepper, and one was stir-fried meat with garlic sprouts. Now they were steaming hot, emitting a pungent fragrance.

Although the three of them had eaten a few steamed buns each and their stomachs were already full, smelling the fragrance of these dishes, Lin Kangping still swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the sound sounded very obvious.

Shi Anliang smiled and said, "It's really quite fragrant, but I'm already full. Now even if it's dragon liver and phoenix marrow, I can't eat it."

Cheng Minxing and Shi Anliang only took a look, then turned their eyes to those account books, and never looked at them again.

Lin Kangping looked twice, then moved his eyes away, also attentively flipping through the account books, and never looked at those dishes again.
