Career in Power - Chapter 221: Two Actors

Wang Junqiang was very good at observing people's actions. He knew that Lai Yayan could not drink too much, and it was inconvenient for Lu Yan to speak on such occasions, so he acted as a pawn.

"Director Liang is exaggerating. With such a big cup, you will get drunk after just one cup. How can you drink?" Wang Junqiang looked at the large wine cup in front of him that looked like a wine divider and said to Liang Hongtao.

"A small cup is boring, but a big cup is more enjoyable." Liang Hongtao said with a smile, "We know that Secretary Lu can't drink more, and we don't force it, but we know your brother's drinking capacity. He drank you all today."

alright."

When Wang Junqiang heard this, he thought that if his lover asked for a big cup, it would be specially opened to deal with him. He could only secretly complain. But on this occasion today, Lu Yan was behind him. If he pretended not to drink, Lu Yan would definitely be unlucky.

.This opportunity is also a good opportunity for you to reverse the previous negative effects.

Lu Yan watched Wang Junqiang and Liang Hongtao's verbal quarrel, but no one helped him. He just looked at them with a smile. Wang Junqiang and Lu Yan had worked together for such a period of time, and he knew Lu Yan somewhat. Naturally, he knew that Lu Yan's expression meant that

In order to gain recognition for myself, I became more courageous and started bargaining with Liang Hongtao again.

After doing this, the atmosphere in the box became lively for the two of them. Lu Yan has been in the limelight recently, and the deputy directors of the Finance Bureau were a little bit reluctant to let it go. At this time, Wang Junqiang and Liang Hongtao took the lead.

, and joined the battle group one after another.

The wine was finally poured. Today was the host of Sidaogou Town. Lu Yan was considered the host. He was not polite. He picked up the big wine glass in front of him and raised it to Liang Hongtao. He said in a loud voice, it is rare for all the leaders to do this today.

We are all honored to come here. I would like to give you my first glass of wine and thank you to the Finance Bureau for its strong support to Sidaogou Town this year. I won’t say anything else. I wish you all good health and good mood."

Lu Yan's words made everyone burst into laughter. Normally, they were talking about good health and a happy mood. Now Lu Yan said the opposite, but he didn't have an ulterior motive. Everyone here was an old man in the officialdom.

After hearing this, I understood the meaning after thinking for a while, and laughed tacitly.

Liang Hongtao also raised his cup, touched it with Lu Yan first, and said, thank you brother for your kindness. From now on, the affairs of Sidaogou Town will be my business, Liang Hongtao, and the Finance Bureau will definitely do their best!

Liang Hongtao's words had a bit of a quackery flavor, but they sounded very pleasant to the ears. It seemed that he and Lu Yan had a very strong relationship.

After Lu Yan and Liang Hongtao clinked glasses, they clinked glasses with several deputy directors of the Finance Bureau and made toasts respectively. Finally, they clinked glasses with Wang Junqiang and took a big sip.

Liang Hongtao watched Lu Yan take a big sip, and he also took a sip. Wang Junqiang naturally followed the leader's footsteps. Among the seven people at the table, the four deputy directors of the Finance Bureau were the most honest, and they drank a full sip.

A wine glass.

After the first glass of wine was toasted, Lu Yan called on everyone to pick up some vegetables and eat some. At this time, a deputy director named Jiang from the Finance Bureau left his seat and walked to Liang Hongtao's face, seemingly giving him something.

Liang Hongtao looked at what Deputy Director Jiang handed over and did not speak immediately. Instead, he waited until Deputy Director Jiang returned to his seats and sat down before taking out two small red envelopes and placing one in front of Lu Yan and Wang Junqiang.

.

"Secretary Lu invited us to drink, and we also expressed our feelings. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and I don't know what new year goods to buy. Secretary Lu and Mayor Wang are holding these two shopping cards. They can see what is missing at home.

Get some supplies." Liang Hongtao said with a smile.

Looking at the little red envelope handed over by Liang Hongtao, at that moment, Wang Junqiang had many thoughts in his mind. Should he want it or not? But he quickly thought about it clearly. On this occasion, it was not up to him to express his opinion. Wang Junqiang

He couldn't help but cast his eyes on Lu Yan.

Wang Junqiang, who was the deputy director of the Government Office, is very clear about the position of the director of the Finance Bureau. The God of Wealth in Hongchuan County is the well-deserved big brother among the top leaders of all committees, bureaus, and townships in Hongchuan County. He rarely regards it as

Others take it seriously. Moreover, there are still rumors in Hongchuan official circles that Liang Hongtao is seeking to serve as deputy county magistrate at next year's National People's Congress. Wang Junqiang never expected that Liang Hongtao would give gifts to Lu Yan and him.

Lu Yan was acting very calm now. He glanced at the small red envelope in front of him and said to Liang Hongtao with a smile: "Brother Liang, what are you doing? I'll treat you to a meal and give me this."

, why are you so embarrassed, brother?"

Seeing that Lu Yan didn't refuse, Liang Hongtao also laughed and said: "It's just a small thing, it's a little thought for the Chinese New Year. I have already taken it out, you brother have to give me this face, let me take it back.

.”

Upon hearing Liang Hongtao's words, Lu Yan knew that it would be too much if he continued to refuse. On today's occasion, not only he and Liang Hongtao were present, but also their subordinates. To a certain extent, he and Liang

Hong Tao is just two actors, putting on a good show for his subordinates.

Lu Yan was like this, let alone Liang Hongtao. The closer Lu Yan showed to him, the happier he felt.

"Haha, then it's better to be respectful than to obey. Thank you for caring about me." Lu Yan said, picked up the card on the table and put it in his pocket.

Wang Junqiang saw that Lu Yan had loaded the card, and he also picked up the card and put it in the pocket of his jacket. Although there was a red envelope and he did not see the specific face value of the card, the card sent by the Finance Bureau was based on the current Hongchuan County

The market price is estimated to be no less than a thousand yuan. After eating a meal, not only did he improve his relationship with Lu Yan, but he also made a lot of extra money. Wang Junqiang secretly felt that this was a good deal.

Buy and sell.

Lu Yan installed the card, and Liang Hongtao felt a stone fall in his heart. Although he appeared to be very familiar with Lu Yan, in fact, this was the first time he had personal contact with Lu Yan. The card was sent out.

At that time, Liang Hongtao was still wondering whether Lu Yan would accept it.

Liang Hongtao had heard of Lu Yan's background to some extent. His father-in-law was the chief prosecutor of the Provincial High Procuratorate and a deputy ministerial cadre, and he himself was highly appreciated by Xu Richeng, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. In Hongchuan County, Ren Jianjun, Secretary of the County Party Committee

and the number one celebrity in front of County Magistrate Wang Xueshi. In Liang Hongtao

It seems that Lu Yan has such a background, and he naturally has very high standards. Although he is the financial director of Hongchuan County, he is definitely not in his eyes. In addition, he has no personal relationship with Lu Yan, so this card

Liang Hongtao really had no idea whether he could give it away.

At this time, when he saw that Lu Yan not only accepted the card, but also chatted intimately with him, Liang Hongtao couldn't help but feel a little more favorable towards Lu Yan. This young man seemed to not only have a good background, but also a good way of doing things.

It was very measured. At least this contact, from the beginning to the present, always made him feel very comfortable.

Lu Yan proposed the first glass of wine, and Wang Junqiang knew that the next step would be to see his performance. Most of the time, the role of the top leader was only symbolic. To really lead the charge, it was still up to these deputies.

However, not every deputy is willing to be a green leaf and set off the deputy. Wang Junqiang was not willing at the beginning, and was even very resistant in his heart. But after several months of getting along, up to now, he is indeed

I sincerely want to be Lu Yan's sedan bearer and carry the sedan chair for Lu Yan conscientiously.

After hurriedly grabbing a few bites of vegetables, especially taking the time to eat a few pieces of fatty meat, Wang Junqiang stood up and held a wine glass in front of Liang Hongtao to propose a toast.

Eat more meat before drinking. This is also the truth that Wang Junqiang has learned from his "alcohol test" over the years. Meat can infiltrate alcohol into the stomach after eating it, which will naturally reduce the pressure on the stomach. It not only protects the stomach, but also increases the amount of alcohol you can drink.

.

Wang Junqiang saw such scenes almost every day when he was in the county government office, so he naturally learned the tricks of the wine shop smoothly. He came to Liang Hongtao with a wine glass and said many nice things to him. Liang Hongtao

I was in a good mood, but now I was complimented by Wang Junqiang, and I was tricked into drinking several glasses of wine without realizing it.

When several people from the Finance Bureau saw that their boss had been tricked, they hurriedly came to the rescue. Wang Junqiang took this opportunity to move the battlefield again and began to toast the deputy directors of the Finance Bureau.

After a round of toasts, a bottle of wine was already empty. Wang Junqiang drank a lot himself, but this did not make the people in the Finance Bureau easy. On average, each person drank at least two large glasses.

Lu Yan saw that the progress was a bit fast, so he suggested that the drinking should be postponed for a while, and everyone should hurry up to clear the dishes on the table. Liang Hongtao also said not to just patronize the drinking, but to take the opportunity to get closer to the Finance Bureau and Sidaogou Town.

one time.

The top leaders on both sides spoke, and the people below were eager to take this opportunity to eat more and refresh themselves. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liang Hongtao turned his head and asked Lu Yan quietly, tell me, brother, how good is your drinking capacity?

Lu Yan answered truthfully that he really couldn't drink too much, so he asked his brother to bear with him.

Liang Hongtao nodded and said he understood, and said why his brothers were so polite to each other, he would have a sense of proportion. In the following process, Liang Hongtao actually blocked a lot of wine for Lu Yan, and those from the Finance Bureau

He didn't give Lu Yan a few glasses of wine.

Lu Yan didn't drink much, so the remaining Wang Junqiang naturally became everyone's target. Although Wang Junqiang was a good talker, a good puncher and a big drinker, he couldn't stand up to the battle between five people.
