Fang Xiaoya said on the road: "The first time I visited your old leader, I can't go empty-handed. Will he smoke?"

"I used to be very addicted to smoking, but now I'm quitting." Qiao Liang replied.

"Oh, quit, I think you'd better quit smoking too."

"I smoke a few occasionally, so I can't talk about smoking, so I don't have to quit."

"Questions." Fang Xiaoya smiled, "Since he has quit smoking, will he drink tea?"

"I also like to drink strong tea. In the past, someone gave it to me, but I guess it's so bad now."

"There are also some people who give it to me now."

Qiao Liang smiled and said, "I'll give it to you too when I look back."

After passing a tea shop, Fang Xiaoya went in and bought two boxes of high-end croaker tongues.

When they arrived at Li Youwei's house, Li Youwei and Gu Shuyun were both at home.

After a brief introduction, Li Youwei expressed his gratitude to Fang Xiaoya for visiting her.

"Brother Li, you are Qiao Liang's respected old leader. I am Qiao Liang's best college classmate. It's up to me to see you." Fang Xiaoya said.

"Liangzi was implicated because of my affairs. Fortunately, Chairman Fang helped me. I should actually thank you on behalf of Liangzi." Li Youwei said politely.

"Brother Li doesn't have to see you. Qiao Liang is in trouble, so I can't sit still and ask. Moreover, Minister Xu happened to come to Jiangzhou."

"Yes, it's a coincidence that I didn't expect you and Minister Xu to be relatives." Li Youwei said with relief.

"Actually, Qiao Liang suffered some setbacks, it was not a bad thing. Young people just wanted to beat more and more." Fang Xiaoya smiled.

Qiao Liang grinned, Fang Xiaoya's tone was like an old man's muscle.

Li Youwei also smiled: "Chairman Fang is so young that he can lead a large group, which is really awesome."

"Where? I just took over my father's work. I'm young and tender, and I don't have enough experience. I hope my seniors will give me more advice." Fang Xiaoya said modestly.

"I am a failed and down-and-out person, and I will never dare to give guidance to the chairman of the instructor." Li Youwei smiled sadly.

"My elder brother Li doesn't agree with this. Although Brother Li suffered a Waterloo in the officialdom, this does not prevent Brother Li from being an excellent business manager. I learned from Qiao Liang that Brother Li's outstanding performance in the newspaper."

Li Youwei glanced at Qiao Liang with a complicated look.

At this time, a few relatives from Gu Shuyun's mother's house came to the Li family, and the living room became crowded and lively.

Gu Shuyun was busy receiving guests from her parents' home, and Li Youwei invited Qiao Liang and Fang Xiaoya to the study to chat.

Li Youwei's study is ancient and beautiful. The bookcase is filled with various books and a book on the desk.

Fang Xiaoya picked it up and read it: "Brother Li, are you reading this book "A Effective Manager"?"

"Yes, I'm going to pass the time when I have nothing to do." Li Youwei nodded.

"This book was written by Peter Drucker, the father of modern management. Brother Li is interested in this aspect?" Fang Xiaoya looked at Li Youwei.

"Haha, I've always been very interested. I've read this book twice, and now it's the third time I've reviewed it."

Fang Xiaoya flipped it out and found that there were many outlines and comments made in it.

Fang Xiaoya put down the book, sat opposite Li Youwei, and said with great interest: "What do Brother Li have to experience reading this book?"

"In this book, Drucker proposed an important law: the efficiency of managers is often the most critical factor in determining organizational work efficiency. Therefore, before managing others, you must learn to manage yourself. Drucker also gave 6 characteristics that effective managers should have..." Li Youwei was quite interested in Fang Xiaoya and became interested in the conversation.

Fang Xiaoya looked at Li Youwei in a flash, listened carefully, and interjected from time to time to ask questions.

Seeing that Fang Xiaoya and Li Youwei were having a hot conversation, and she was not interested in the content of the conversation. Qiao Liang was a little bored and left the study room. In the living room, Gu Shuyun and her relatives from her parents' home were having a hot conversation, and she couldn't even talk to her.

Qiao Liang then came out and walked casually at Li Youwei's doorstep, moving his body.

While moving, Wen Yuan’s door opened and Guo Qiang, director of the newspaper’s financial center, came out.

Guo Qiang was originally an ordinary accountant in the financial center, but later promoted him to director by Li Youwei, who belonged to the core level of Li Youwei's own circle in the newspaper.

Seeing Qiao Liang, Guo Qiang lowered his head and walked quickly in the opposite direction, trying to leave quickly.

"Director Guo!" Qiao Liang called him behind his back.

Guo Qiang stopped and turned around, pretending to be what he had just seen: "Hey, Director Qiao, I didn't see you just now."

"Does Director Guo really not see it? Or do you pretend not to see it?" Qiao Liang walked over with a smile.

Guo Qiang came out of Wen Yuan's house and obviously came to give him gifts.

Li Youwei fell and Guo Qiang defected to the new leader.

It is probably not the first time Guo Qiang has been here to give gifts to Wen Yuan, maybe Li Youwei will surrender to Wen Yuan.

Qiao Liang felt sad, the world was in a cold state, and people were very realistic.

After hearing Qiao Liang say this, Guo Qiang was a little embarrassed: "I really didn't see Director Qiao, haha, Director Qiao is here..."

"I'm here to see Secretary Li. Secretary Li has come out. You are the middle-level newspaper staff promoted by Secretary Li. Don't you plan to see him?"

"Uh...this..." Guo Qiang stammered for a moment, "Yes, Secretary Li has come out. This is a good thing. I have to go and see it when I have time..."

"Are you very busy now? Not available?"

"Yes, yes, I'm very busy now. I just finished reporting to General Wen. I have to rush back to the report agency to deal with some important matters."

"Oh, since Director Guo has a lot of things to do every day, then go ahead and get busy."

Guo Qiang left quickly.

Looking at Guo Qiang's departure back, Qiao Liang was a little indignant, and three words appeared in his mind: The ungrateful wolf!

In fact, Guo Qiang is more than the only ungrateful wolf in the newspaper. I learned from Gu Shuyun that after Li Youwei came out, none of the people he promoted to come to see him.

Qiao Liang knew from some channels that these people were roughly divided into two types. One person did not dare to see Li Youwei, worried that Wen Yuan would be found wearing small shoes. After all, Wen Yuan and Li Youwei were neighbors.

This kind of person has basically remained neutral when Li Youwei had an accident.

Another type of person had no intention of visiting Li Youwei. After Li Youwei had an accident, they urgently drew a clear line with Li Youwei and took the initiative to surrender to Wenyuan.

Guo Qiang belongs to this kind of person.

After being indignant, Qiao Liang felt that he seemed to understand people like Guo Qiang. After all, the fate of a small person is controlled by his superiors, and those who know the current affairs are heroes.

Perhaps, this is the helplessness and sorrow of the little people.

After a while, Gu Shuyun's relatives left, Qiao Liang went in, Li Youwei and Fang Xiaoya were still talking in the study, and their laughter came from time to time.

It seems they are having a very speculative conversation.

Qiao Liang didn't want to go in and disturb them, so he chatted with Gu Shuyun while eating melon seeds.

Before they knew it, three hours passed. Before Fang Xiaoya and Li Youwei came out in the study, Gu Shuyun went out to buy vegetables and kept them at home for dinner.
