In the next few days, Wang Yong and Dawei often went to drink and chat with his second uncle. Wang Yong also specially went to 10,000 yuan to prepare to spend some money for his second uncle. However, he didn't think that his second uncle was not short of money. When he retired, his second uncle worked as a department-level cadre in Tianhai City for more than ten years, and he enjoyed the treatment of deputy department-level after retirement. The monthly salary subsidy was added to more than 6,000 yuan. He did not spend much money in the past few years, so he saved a lot of money. Two years ago, he bought a house for his younger brother's son and his nephew in the county. He took out a passbook for Wang Yong, which was on it.

With a deposit of more than 500,000 yuan, there is a house of more than 110 square meters in the center of Tianhai. It can be said that it is richer than Wang Yong. At least Wang Yong's money for selling gold bricks can't buy the house of the second uncle in Tianhai. That day, the second uncle went to the market to sell walnuts and went to the market to pass the time. The second uncle originally wanted to give the passbook to Wang Yong and let him do some business. In the end, Wang Yong shirked it out on the grounds that he had money. Uncle Er didn't believe it, so Wang Yong even gave the transaction contract of the gold bricks to the second uncle.

Three days later, Wang Yong sent away Wang Qian and Dawei who were returning to Beijing. As a result, after returning to Beijing, Dawei called and said that Wang Qian's father was still a deputy ministerial-level official, and he also swears to him that according to his reliable information, after he brought him back, he would be promoted to the full director of the ministerial-level official. Wang Yong had no time to listen to him nagging on the phone and was about to hang up the phone, but he heard that they were very satisfied after seeing the vegetables he brought in the hotel, and would bring people to sign the contract in the next two days. After confirming this, he hung up the phone.

The next day, Dawei brought Manager Li, the hotel's purchasing manager, and his master, Mr. Zhang, over. Wang Yong took them to visit the greenhouse and made a few dishes from the vegetables picked from the greenhouse at noon. After eating, he was very satisfied and immediately signed a contract. The price was agreed at a minimum of 20 yuan per catty, and the specific one depends on the type of vegetables. After the contract was signed, the three of them hurried back to Beijing.

It was idle that day, and Wang Yong wanted to eat fish, so he prepared to stew a pot of small fish at home. The main reason was that he hadn't eaten fish for several days, and the greedy worms were catching again. He first caught more than a dozen small fish from the small world. The fish were of different sizes, half a pound of large and more than two taels of small ones. There were crucian carp, grass carp, carp, silver carp, willow roots, loaches, and pony (a small fish that is a bit like catfish, I always think it was a catfish seedling).

Wang Yong first started to clean the fish, cleaned the fish quickly, and then washed it with water. Put the washed fish in a basin and marinate it with salt for later use. Cut the scallions into pieces, and cut the ginger and garlic into powder to set aside.

Put a little water in the iron pot and heat the pot. Use the water in the pot to clean the iron pot first, take out the water in the pot, wait until the water in the pot is dried, add the meat oil, add the pickled small fish, fry until it is dried and remove it for later use. Leave a little oil in the pot, add ginger, garlic, pepper, large ingredients, star anise, and bay leaves in turn (note that the bay leaves should not be added too much, as the fish soup will become bitter if it is added too much). After frying, add the fried small fish. Add the water directly to the small fish, then add the scallion slices, soy sauce, sugar, white vinegar, and salt to season. Boil over high heat and simmer for two hours.

While the fish was slowly simmering in the pot, Wang Yong scooped a bowl of rice from the rice bag. He washed it with water first, put the finished rice into the electric cooker, squeezed in an appropriate amount of water, turned on the power supply of the rice cooker, pressed the switch, and waited for the sweet rice to come out of the pot.

Two hours later, I unbuttoned the lid of the large iron pot, and the soup in the pot was almost dried. A strong fish smell came to my nose, and the small fish with crispy bones and rotten meat made me saliva.

Put the small fish out of the pot, and fill the house with a full pot, and put it in your mouth. The fish meat is tender and the bone spurs of the small fish are already soft. The taste is not something that can be made in the pressure cooker in the city. Serve a bowl of rice, a bite of rice and a bite of fish, don’t be too proud of this life. Just as I was eating, my uncle came over.

"You kid is fish stew today? It smells so good, hurry up and bring me a bowl, let's have some drinks." The uncle ordered without hesitation.

As a junior, Wang Yong could only put down his chopsticks and roll his eyes, then get up and get the dishes for his uncle. He patted another cucumber, fried a plate of peanuts, and took out a bottle of Wuliangye that he got from his second uncle and poured a cup of him.

The uncle looked at the Wuliangye that Wang Yong took out and said, "Where did you get this from your second uncle in the neighboring village? You are so old and don't know Xiao Jing Xiao Jing's second uncle who has loved you since childhood, and he still gets something from your second uncle, and isn't you blushing?"

Listening to his uncle's lesson, Wang Yong rolled his eyes. It has been spread throughout the village these days. Cao Weihe, the neighboring village who had worn a pair of pants with Wang Dajiang, who had elopement with the city girl, came back. Some said that Cao Wei opened a large company, and was back to repay Wang Dajiang who helped him back then. He also swears that he met Mr. Wang Guoliang the next day after seeing him come back. Who is Mr. Wang? He has been a high-ranking official in the capital and has never experienced anything. He advised him to put down his burden and live a good life.

Don’t mention anything that can repay you or not. Later, Cao Wei never returned to Tianhai, just waiting for Wang Dajiang’s son Wang Yong to come back to inherit his company. There are even more outrageous rumors, saying that Cao Wei was the deputy mayor of Tianhai and was a general under Prime Minister Zhu at that time. He offended many people with the Prime Minister. So after the Prime Minister’s term expired, he retired. He could not stay in Shanghai, so he went back to his hometown. The work of his second brother’s family in the county and the house of his nephew were handled by Mr. Cao... All kinds of words were flying all over the sky.

The three of them who got the second uncle's instructions not to tell him what he was doing did not clarify anything. The second uncle didn't care, and he didn't care what others said? What's more, the rumors also said that the second uncle either became a high-ranking official or made a fortune. No matter how he heard it, he felt envy, jealousy, and hatred.

The uncle must have been gossipy and curious to come over to make up his own words. Because the most likely person to know the truth of this matter is his old man and his nephew. The old man doesn’t have to think about it. If he dares to ask, he will definitely be beaten out. So he can only come and ask his nephew. Not only will he not be beaten, but he also has to serve him with good wine and food. The more Wang Dahai thinks about it, he becomes more proud and hums a song involuntarily. Drinking wine and eating food is so pleasant.

"If you want to drink, there are five bottles left for me. Leave two bottles for my second master, and take away the remaining three bottles. If you don't want to drink, keep them for me to drink." Wang Yong said angrily.

Wang Dahai glared at Wang Yong: "Who said I won't drink anymore?" Then he changed the topic and said: "Today I went to the village and decided to be the village chief. Since you are the only candidate, the village's opinions should be taken directly. But you still take the time to have a meal with the township leaders. When we meet, we will have a good impression of each other. By the way, let me reveal some inside information about Cao Wei. We are all village secretaries, and now the village says everything. I have to calm the rumors!"

Wang Yong was really helpless and said to his uncle dejectedly: "Uncle, you are a man, don't gossip like an aunt, okay?"

"Don't I care about comrades? I remember that I did a lot of work in Cao Wei's family back then. Otherwise, how many acres of land could be planted with his small body? Their brothers starved to death early." The uncle retorted and asked for credit.

Seeing that Wang Yong was still silent, he kept stretching his chopsticks to the basin of the fish. The uncle stretched out his chopsticks and blocked Wang Yong and said, "Don't just eat, let me reveal some inside information to the uncle? Just tell him, has Cao Wei really been a high-ranking official? What level is it?"

Wang Yong stared at his uncle for a while, and he stared at Wang Yong without being outdone. Finally, Wang Yong was defeated and said helplessly: "Then I want to tell you the level of the second uncle. You can't ask anything else."

Wang Dahai said happily: "Of course, men and great men are all stubborn. Can I still talk to you? Why are we also the secretary of the village, right? Tell me quickly."

"Sub-Department."

"What? What did you say?"

"Ministerial Department, second uncle has been a technician, section chief, director, and deputy director of the Agriculture Bureau of Tianhai Municipal Agriculture Bureau. When he retired, he was promoted to deputy director of the Agriculture Committee. He seemed to have part-time jobs in tourism and enjoyed the treatment of deputy department level. Well, that's all."

Wang Dahai looked surprised: "Good, I thought it would be almost the same as a section chief, but I didn't expect that this old guy is still a big official. Hehe! He can get deputy department-level cadres to give gifts to the door, all the township, no, there are not many in the county." Wang Dahai began to nag his abilities again.

Wang Yong already knew that when the second uncle came back, he visited the second master and uncle and brought two bottles of 30-year-old Maotai for each. The two bottles of the second master were asked to drink on the spot. The two bottles of the uncle were not hidden and were taken away by Wang Qiang. His whereabouts were still unknown. He heard from the aunt that the uncle was so angry that he had not had a good meal for three days and felt very distressed. He became angry as soon as he brought it up, so that after Wang Yong came back, Wang Dahai forgot to talk to Wang Yong about this matter.

The second master did not mention it to Wang Yong, maybe because in his opinion, Cao Wei came to repay his kindness, but in the second master's opinion, it was just a trivial matter and was not worth mentioning. It was normal to help the boss when there were difficulties, and he couldn't ask others to repay any kindness. So he didn't tell Wang Yong. It was not until Wang Yong met his second uncle at the market that he knew that his second uncle had already gone home.

Wang Yong said angrily: "Since you are the secretary now, let others do that engineering team. Just be your leader in getting rich in the village, so as to avoid being tired."

"Okay, okay. Drink your bar. Leading cadres cannot do business. As the village leader - the village secretary, can I know that the law is broken? After renovating the house for you, I will bring the team to others." The uncle said proudly about his foresight.

Wang Yong could only roll his eyes to his uncle's shameless answer. Afterwards, he said angrily: "What kind of cadre are you? The village cadres are not full-time cadres and do not obey that regulations. By the way, I heard from Dawei that my uncle will be elected as the director of the National Development and Reform Commission soon. This is a ministerial level. If you serve as the deputy prime minister and are at the vice-national level, then you are not even more awesome. You are the eldest brother of the deputy national level leader, and you can't find many in China."

"Wow! Have you heard of it too? But we haven't been appointed yet. Our family should be kept low and don't cause trouble for your uncle." The uncle said sternly, smugly.
