Chapter 223 Friends from the Past Life
During the day, when he heard that Jiang Liansheng said something special and squirted water, Li Rui felt itchy. The noble Ruoli Ruoli made him hold it in his arms for a long time. At night, he came out of Jiang Liansheng's house and became more interested in drinking. He walked downstairs where Su Xiaohong lived. Seeing the lights in the room, he wandered downstairs for a long time, but in the end he defeated reason and raised his legs to go upstairs.
With Su Xiaohong's warmth, he was greatly satisfied, but he did not dare to spend the night and slipped back to the office in the middle of the night.
The list of the provincial party committee and government on the construction of 100 small towns in the province has finally been announced. Due to the differences in economic development between the north and south of Suhuai Province, most of the pilot projects are concentrated in the southern region. As the northernmost Pengcheng City, there are only two places. In addition to Qingshanquan Town, there is also Tianma Town in Fengzhou County.
It is precisely because of the rare quota that the Nanqiao County Party Committee and County Government attach great importance to the construction of the small town of Qingshanquan Town. For this reason, the Qingshanquan Town Construction Branch was specially established. Ding Chunming, deputy director of the Construction Committee in charge of planning, served as the director, and sent eight staff members to be stationed in Qingshanquan Town.
Since the Party Committee divided the work in the early stage and each was in charge of a matter. Cui Yongjiu was responsible for the overall work of the government, Jiang Liansheng was responsible for industry, industrial parks and party affairs, Lin Ronghai was responsible for urban planning and construction, Yang Hongwang was responsible for agriculture and Qingyi Highway construction... The rest of the work had their own responsibilities. He would not come to him for small matters, and when encountering big things, even though Cui Yongjiu was responsible for the overall work of the government, everyone knew who to report to. Therefore, generally, except for asking for instructions, Li Rui had no major matters. Sometimes he would make time to discuss the construction planning issues of Qingshanquan Town with Lin Ronghai and the Construction Branch.
Although Li Rui is not an expert in this kind of plan, he has never eaten pork and has never seen pigs run. Every time he has made a point of view, he will make people shine. In the end, the staff of the Construction Branch will come to him to ask for advice and report.
On that day, Li Rui was studying town planning issues with Lin Ronghai in his office, he received a call from his uncle, saying that his aunt and Jingjing were on vacation. He asked him to go to have dinner at night. This is the old rule. As long as his aunt is at home during the winter and summer vacations, he often calls him to eat. Time flies so fast, and in a blink of an eye, it is summer vacation again. Li Rui hung up the phone and paid attention to the date, June 25, 1994. He suddenly realized that it had been a whole year since he was unhappy at first, and he had already integrated into this era. He felt a little dazed. The longer he came to this era, the more blurred the memories of his previous life became.
"Secretary Li, Secretary Li!" Lin Ronghai, wearing reading glasses, saw Li Rui holding the phone for a long time without responding, and shouted softly twice.
Li Rui then came to his senses, "Oh, Lao Lin, let's continue, where did you say just now..."
Because it was a weekend, Li Rui got off work an hour early in the afternoon and was going to his uncle's house for dinner. He didn't let Ding Junfeng follow him and let him go. This guy looked happy. Li Rui knew that he still often ran to the Health Hall these days. But whenever he saw Ma Haisheng, he always looked entangled. Anyway, he had told him all the time. Since this guy was still happy, Li Rui was too lazy to say anything else.
He moved a box of Wuliangye, took six pieces of Chinese cigarettes, and went to Qingshanquan Town to be the secretary of the secretary of the coal management bureau. Zhang Defa, the owner of the construction company who built a road in the industrial park, gave him 50,000 yuan for the first time. Because he was just a newcomer, Li Rui confiscated the money for the sake of security. Seeing that the money could not be delivered, this guy actually sent him a box of Chinese and six boxes of Wuliangye for the second time. He happened to take a part to honor his uncle.
"Why do you always get so many things for you? You are not an outsider. Are you collecting these things? You just went to Qingshanquan Town not long ago, and this effect is not good..."
As soon as he entered the door, Li Wenjun saw that Li Rui was carrying another box and holding a large horse bag wrapped in newspaper in his hand, and he couldn't help but frown and nag.
Xu Zhen came out of the kitchen when she heard the sound, took the bag from Li Rui's hand with a smile, and helped him take off the wine he was carrying on his shoulder, and said, "Yes, Xiao Rui, you can keep these things for yourself. This is your uncle's house, so you don't have to be so polite."
"I have them there, these are for my uncle." Li Rui smiled and patted the dust on his shoulder, took out a bank card from his pocket, handed it to Xu Zhen, looked at Li Wenjun who was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper, and deliberately lowered his voice: "Auntie, this is the dividends from the winery in the first half of the year."
Xu Zhen said in surprise: "Isn't this time yet? Why did you pay dividends in advance?" But she still refused embarrassedly: "Xiaorui, look at you, I just had a name at the beginning. You paid the investment money. We were already very embarrassed last time. You should collect the dividends this time, we don't need them."
Li Rui forced the card into Xu Zhen's hand, "Auntie, please keep it. This is just a part of the dividend. I will keep the big head myself, and I will save it to buy a dowry for Jingjing in the future."
Xu Zhen secretly glanced at Li Wenjun, but saw that although he frowned, he didn't say anything. He immediately took it with joy, of course, he still looked reluctant to it on the surface.
"Xiao Rui, sit down, I have a few dishes to go soon. I'll ask Jingjing to come out and make tea for you, Jingjing, Jingjing... You damn girl, your brother is here!"
"Mom, stop shouting, I heard it." Li Jing ran out of the room in a weird way. When she saw Li Rui, she shouted: "Brother, have you forgotten to bring me a gift this time? I took the first place in the whole grade in this final exam!"
"Is that so? Our Jingjing is a talented woman! Oh, my brother came in a hurry this time and forgot to bring you a gift. Will you be fine next time?" Li Rui said with regret.
"Brother, why are you here again? I promised to bring me a gift last time, but I forgot this time, Humph!" Li Jing said with dissatisfaction.
"Jingjing, how do you speak? You are so old and don't know how to be ashamed. Why don't you go and make tea for your brother quickly?" Li Wenjun said with a stern face.
"Oh!" Li Jing agreed weakly, looking disappointed.
"Ding thud... Jingjing, what do you think this is?" Li Rui suddenly took out a box from his bag and shook it in front of Li Jing's eyes.
"Ah! an! It's still Aihua, brother, is this really for me?" Li Jing saw the packaging on the box clearly and screamed.
"Of course it's for you." Before Li Rui could hand the box to her, she had already snatched it away, and she couldn't wait to open the box to see.
"There is this?" Li Rui took out a large stack of CDs from his bag. They are all the most popular albums of the four most popular kings. Li Jing's eyes lit up and rushed up excitedly to grab the CD, and kissed Li Rui heavily on the face, "Brother, it's so great!" After that, he excitedly ran back to the room with the thing in his arms, anxious to feel it.
"Okay! There is no one who makes tea now." Li Rui spread his hands and had to go over and make tea by himself.
Li Wenjun shook his head, "A girl from every family is not reserved at all. Xiaorui, why did you buy such expensive things for her? She is still a junior high school child. It's better to be cheaper and buy a carpet walkman so that she can learn English."
Li Rui walked over with a teacup and smiled and said, "Uncle, you don't understand this. This girl has to be raised in wealth and makes her spoiled. You are just such a daughter. Wouldn't it be good to let her grow up happily?"
Li Wenjun sighed and shook his head with a smile, "I can't tell you anyway, be careful to spoil her."
"Of course my sister has to spoil her. Don't worry, Jingjing is a sensible child. She can't spoil her." Li Rui smiled and sat down on the single sofa opposite Li Wenjun, took a sip of tea, frowned and said, "My uncle, your tea is too bad. I'll bring you some special Longjing."
"Forget it, you can keep it for yourself." Li Wenjun waved his hand and couldn't help but nag again: "Xiao Rui. Your status is different now. You should always put the people first. You should always serve as an official and benefit the people. You should pay attention to your image and not engage in such unhealthy practices."
"I understand, uncle, I will collect some things and confiscate the money. Besides, the current trend is like this. If you really don't recognize your relatives and don't accept anything, who will dare to get close to you? This work will be difficult to carry out." Li Rui said shamelessly.
What Li Rui said is true, and Li Wenjun had to sigh, and it was hard to say anything else. However, Li Rui said, "I said, uncle, you are not over forty today, right? Why do you sigh all day long? Isn't you just not become the general manager? You have to be unable to get along with yourself!"
Sun Songlin, the former general manager of Penggong Group, was transferred. Although Ji Yunzhong, the Party Secretary and Chairman of the Group, recommended Li Wenjun to the province, the final appointment was the former executive vice president Chang Bin as general manager, and Li Wenjun as executive vice president. It is said that the reason why Chang Bin was able to take over as general manager was that executive vice governor Qi Yingwei spoke, which led to Li Wenjun, who was originally very popular, could only be the executive vice president. It was annoying that Li Wenjun did not become general manager on the one hand, but on the other hand, he had a gap with Chang Bin when competing for the position of general manager, so he was not happy at work now. So when facing the jokes of his nephew, Li Wenjun could only sigh and say nothing.
"Uncle, you don't have to take it seriously. Chang Bin wants a diploma but no diploma, and has no ability. I think he doesn't have the ability to be the general manager for a long time, and in the end, the superiors have to ask you to come out to support the overall situation." Li Rui comforted him with a smile. He was not aimless. In his memory of his previous life, it seemed that Chang Bin was dismissed for only more than a year because of economic problems. Of course, this is an excuse. The most important thing is that his ability is insufficient, so that Penggong Group's performance declined greatly in a short period of time, making the upper and lower levels unsatisfied.
"Forget it, I won't talk about this anymore. By the way, there is still a customer coming later." Li Wenjun said.
"Who?" Li Rui asked.
"You should know my college classmate Ma Wenjie. This guy has been trading business in Russia in recent years and has posted it!" Li Wenjun smiled. Ma Wenjie was his best classmate and friend, but we have fewer meetings in recent years. Yesterday, he just received a call from Ma Wenjie, saying that he was here in Pengcheng today. Li Wenjun specially held a banquet at home and called Li Rui by the way.
"It turns out that Brother Wenjie is coming! Uncle, why didn't you say it earlier?" Li Rui said in surprise. After Li Wenjun was killed, Ma Wenjie specifically sent Russia back after hearing the news. He ran away with Li Rui for more than half a year to argue for Li Wenjun. Although there was no good result later, Li Rui and him established a deep relationship.
At that time, Ma Wenjie was a dissident who had a very successful business in Russia. He accumulated hundreds of millions of wealth in the 1990s. Later, Li Rui came out of Tengfei Group to work alone, and Ma Wenjie also gave him a lot of help. The relationship between the two has always been very good and is usually a brother.
"You are not big or young, Brother Wenjie is also called by you? Don't forget that he and I are classmates. In terms of seniority, you have to call him uncle. You forgot that when you were a child, you kept calling him 'uncle, uncle' behind him." Li Wenjun cursed with a smile.
"This..." Li Rui scratched his scalp embarrassedly. He didn't expect this. Li Wenjun and Ma Wenjie were classmates from Pengcheng Institute of Technology. Li Rui had just returned from the capital at that time. He usually followed his uncle and Ma Wenjie all day long after he had nothing to do.
"I'm not a few years apart from him. I'll call him old! I'm not sure if we're going to make a fuss about each other. I believe Brother Wenjie is also very happy that I can call him 'big brother'," Li Rui said with a smile on his face.
"Then aren't you afraid of calling me old?" Li Wenjun said with a smile.
"You are different. You are my uncle. If this were the past, there were many older nephews and younger uncles. When my nephews saw them, they would not kowtow and pay their respects."
The nephew and uncle were talking, and the doorbell rang, and Li Rui jumped up quickly, "I'll open the door." He couldn't wait for Ma Wenjie, a real friend in his previous life.
When the door opened, a middle-aged man with a flat head stood at the door, about the same age as Li Wenjun. When he saw Li Rui, he was stunned for a moment when he smiled and muttered to himself: "Can I go to the wrong door?"
Li Rui burst out laughing. Although Ma Wenjie in front of him was much younger than he remembered, he was still so humorous. "Brother Wenjie, you didn't go through the wrong door. Why, can't you recognize who I am?"
"You are..." Ma Wenjie looked at Li Rui carefully. The young man in front of him looked very similar to Li Wenjun. A figure immediately popped up in his mind, but the difference was too big, which made him unsure.
"I am Li Rui! Brother Wenjie, you shouldn't forget me, right?"
Ma Wenjie was surprised and said, "You are Li Rui! The little brat has grown up so old. Hey, what did you call me just now? Big brother? Big brother, you also called me. Be careful that your uncle beat you up..."
