Han Wei stood upright, saluted Zhang Guorui with a standard military salute, and said loudly: "Hello instructor, Han Wei, squad leader of the second squad of the third company, first platoon, greets you!"

This move shocked everyone present. Only Zhang Guorui said with a smile: "It turns out to be Han Wei. This is not in the army. Don't do that."

Li Yuanlang immediately understood that Han Wei was a retired soldier, and Zhang Guorui must have been his superior, wasn't he called an instructor? So he asked: "Secretary Zhang turned out to be..."

"When I was a company instructor in the army, Han Wei was my squad leader. We haven't seen each other for four years, right?" Zhang Guorui asked Han Wei with emotion.

"Report to instructor, twenty-five days to four years." Han Wei responded in a formal manner. Although Zhang Guorui reminded him not to behave like the army, he still went his own way and developed respect and obedience to his superiors in his bones. He could not change things overnight.

Changed.

Meng Lingjiang was not interested in the unexpected reunion between Han Wei and Zhang Guorui. His eyes had long been on the man and woman next to Zhang Guorui, especially the woman.

It's not that he has any evil thoughts, everyone has a love for beauty, especially a man with a normal mentality. Everyone likes to look at beautiful women more than once.

Zhang Guorui introduced a man and a woman to everyone. The man's name was Gao Canru, political and legal committee member of Shuiming Township, and the woman's name was Wu Hongli, publicity committee member.

The two men shook hands with Meng Lingjiang and Li Yuanlang and exchanged a few words. Li Yuanlang felt that the name Wu Hongli was only one character different from a certain person. By the way, wasn't Jin Sheng's wife named Wu Hongjuan? Isn't it just that their names differed by one character?

Coincidence, could there be other relationships?

Of course, Li Yuanlang couldn't ask blind questions in this situation, and shook Wu Hongli's soft hand politely. It was said that this woman was in her thirties, but her hands were as soft and boneless as a little girl's, and they were well maintained.

After saying hello, Zhang Guorui glared at Huang Wenfa with a stern face and reprimanded: "Huang Wenfa, why didn't you call me when Minister Meng and Mayor Li arrived? I told you in advance, did you let a dog eat your memory?

!If I hadn’t discovered it in time, I would still be in the dark

Guli. When the county leaders came to our Shuiming Township, none of the township leaders came forward to receive them. Outsiders thought that the leaders of Shuiming Township were arrogant and did not take the county leaders seriously. Huang Wenfa, you are not qualified as a secretary.

Please be careful in the future and don’t do this again.”

Huang Wenfa blushed from being scolded and smiled awkwardly. He didn't dare to fart and just stood there rubbing his hands.

From Zhang Guorui's words, Li Yuanlang could find out the clues that Ma Shengran and Zhang Guorui were not getting along!

Ma Shengran must have told Huang Wenfa not to tell Zhang Guorui when he and Meng Lingjiang arrived. He didn't want Zhang Guorui to take the opportunity to steal the limelight of the purchase.

No one came to greet Li Yuanlang, deliberately leaving him in the dark. Why should you, Zhang Guorui, be a good old man and let Li Yuanlang accept your favor? Others have been the bad guys, but you want to be the red face. How can it be so cheap?

Li Yuanlang thought to himself, it seems that Shuiming Township is not monolithic, everyone listens to Ma Shengran's command, at least Zhang Guorui has a different voice.

On this occasion, Zhang Guorui stopped talking. He said a few words about Huang Wenfa, and he also said them to Ma Shengran. It is estimated that these words could not be kept confidential for more than ten minutes, and they would soon reach Ma Shengran's ears.

No matter what, if it rains or the mother wants to get married, let him do whatever he wants.

Afterwards, Zhang Guorui warmly invited Meng Lingjiang, Li Yuanlang and others to have lunch. The dining venue was naturally the Ye Yuhua Hotel opposite the township government. The township finance office would not reimburse for other places.

What's more, only the Ye Yuhua Hotel in the township allows the township government to sign a bill for meals, and other restaurants are simply not available. The township government's brand is a bad name on the street. It owes almost 100,000 in meal bills to external parties, and it has never been paid. The only debt owed to Huang is

There are more than five hotels, so who would dare to pay for food on credit? Unless there is too much money to spend.

In fact, it wasn't that Ma Shengran didn't want to come over to greet Meng Lingjiang and Li Yuanlang.

He needs to be given a show of strength, but he also has to eat, so he can't go hungry.

Early this morning, Ma Shengran learned that Li Yuanlang took office and arranged everything in advance, so he called Xiao Zhanzhan, Tan Gang and Liu Shuxi to go to the "Ye Yuxiang" hotel to play mahjong.

Ma Shengran especially likes to play mahjong. Not only does he always win, but he also enjoys the sense of accomplishment of winning money.

But something strange happened today. Xiao Zhanzhan was surprisingly lucky. He won a lot of money with three hands, especially the cannons that Hu Ma Shengran often clicked.

Who doesn't know that when Xiao Zhanzhan was the executive deputy township head, he was famous for being a bad player. He played ten times and lost ten times, but never won. What happened today? His hands were filled with honey?

"Eight." Ma Shengran had a cold face, without a trace of a smile. He was much more cautious than usual when playing cards. After hesitating for a long time, he played the idle card of eight, which was also a bad card. Three eights were played on the card table. Xiao Zhanzhan

If you listen to the news in front of the door, you won't play this card, right?

Ma Shengran clearly remembered that Xiao Zhanzhan's previous player Liu Shuxi had just finished playing eight cards, and Xiao Zhanzhan reported that this card was very safe.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhanzhan suddenly slammed the table, held a cigarette in his mouth and shouted with a smile: "What a fool, there are eight cards, no draw!"

"Are you still messing with my cards?" Ma Shengran's old face turned the color of pig liver with anger, his brows were knitted together into a big knot, and he looked directly at Xiao Zhanzhan with burning eyes.

"Wait a minute!" Tan Gang saw that the situation was not good, and quickly winked at Xiao Zhanzhan, and reminded: "Old Xiao, take a good look at your cards, don't be fooled."

This is for Xiao Zhanzhan to step down. Ma Shengran is a little impatient to lose. Xiao Zhanzhan should stop when he sees a good situation, and stop being ruthless if he can, so as to save some face for Ma Shengran.

As everyone knows, Xiao Zhanzhan didn't look at Tan Gang at all. He still lowered his head and looked at the cards in his hand. He laughed and pushed them away. He said proudly: "Look, there is nothing missing. The only thing missing is this eight-card card. Take it."

Money."

Tan Gang had no choice but to hand a few red banknotes to Xiao Zhanzhan, while Liu Shuxi said strange things in a displeased manner. "Head Xiao has been promoted, and his playing skills have also improved a lot. It's just different from before."

This is not obvious. In the past, Xiao Zhanzhan lost money because he did not dare to win. Now he wins because he has become the mayor of the township and is on the same level as Ma Shengran.

Liu Shuxi could think of this, how could Ma Shengran not know? He coldly handed the few hundred-dollar bills in front of him to Xiao Zhanzhan, angrily without saying a word, and started counting cards.

"I think we'll stop here today. Minister Meng and the others have just arrived at the hotel. It's not too late for us to go now. Let's wait until some day to play." Xiao Zhanzhan held a large amount of banknotes in his hand, pushed the cards, and stopped playing.

.

"No, if you touch me four more times, no one will be allowed to leave." Ma Shengran said angrily without moving.

Xiao Zhanzhan said, "Secretary Ma, we have already played twelve rounds. Minister Meng is here. At least we should show up. Besides, you have lost no money, so why are you playing?"

"I'm risking my life." Ma Shengran stared at his blood-red eyes, looking like he was going to eat someone. "My life, Ma Shengran, is worth eighteen thousand. In this way, if I win, you give me money, and if I lose,

, I leave my life to you and let you do whatever you want."

"Isn't it just a card game? As for what you say is so scary, who dares to gamble with you is breaking the law." Xiao Zhanzhan couldn't keep his face and responded with some dissatisfaction.

Ma Shengran stared intently at Xiao Zhanzhan's face, but Xiao Zhanzhan was not afraid of the stage and looked at him sideways, with disdain hidden in his smiling expression.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the situation was about to explode.

Liu Shuxi and Tan Gang saw that the situation was not going well, and Tan Gang immediately tried to persuade Xiao Zhanzhan, saying: "Play four more rounds with Secretary Ma, Lao Xiao, and you're almost done. If you keep playing tricks, I'll lose only

My pants are down."

As soon as this joke was uttered, no one in the room laughed. The atmosphere was so tense, no one could laugh.

Seeing this, Liu Shuxi hurriedly went out to borrow 10,000 yuan from the hotel owner. He placed it in front of Ma Shengran politely, then waved his hand and said, "Hurry up, Tan Gang, here's the sign."

In this way, after Ma Shengran regained his gambling capital, the four of them played four more rounds of mahjong. Different from the past, these four rounds of playing were quite boring. Apart from calling out the names of the cards during the game, no other gossip was said.

After playing four rounds of cards in a little more than an hour, Ma Shengran finally made some money, but he still looked ugly, silent and worried.

"Let's go, Secretary Ma. I just called Boss Gao. She said that Meng Lingjiang was in a state of high spirits and started dancing. Let's go there now. We have to force him down."

"Go away!" Ma Shengran pushed away Liu Shuxi's hand that was tugging on his clothes and said angrily: "I have to go to you. I don't feel well today. Go home and sleep!"

Then, Ma Shengran kicked the chair over, slammed the door and left without looking back.

"What kind of brand is it? It doesn't matter if you lose two dollars." Xiao Zhanzhan curled his lips, took a puff from his cigarette, and spat on the ground.

Liu Shuxi didn't say anything, and sat on the chair with his clothes on in a daze. But Tan Gang said a few words to complain about Xiao Zhanzhan: "You are the same, Secretary Ma is so lucky that he won't let him play. He has to use random cards, so Secretary Hu Ma

I ordered the cannon, isn’t that not giving Secretary Ma face?”

"When you lose when you play cards, you win. Every time I lose money, I am happy. Unlike him, if you can't afford to lose, don't play." Xiao Zhanzhan muttered to Tan Gang: "Now they have been drinking for three rounds.

, let’s go drink with them.”

Tan Gang shook his head helplessly and asked Liu Shuxi if he was going.

"You guys go ahead, I can't drink. Zhang Guorui is a very good drinker. I can't beat him. If I drink myself down, I might as well forget it." Liu Shuxi waved his hand and backed down.

"Let's go, no matter what, today is also Lao Xiao Gaosheng's big day, we have to go over and celebrate." Tan Gang couldn't help but said, dragging Liu Shuxi and following the satisfied Xiao Zhanzhan out of the "Ye Yu Xiang" hotel, and went straight to "Ye Yu Xiang"

Come to Hua" restaurant.

On the way, Tan Gang and Xiao Zhanwang walked in front, while Liu Shuxi followed behind them a few steps away.

Tan Gang secretly asked Xiao Zhanzhan: "Old Xiao, did you do this on purpose today?"

Tan Gang and Xiao Zhanwang had a personal relationship. They had a good relationship in private, and he did not hide it. He lowered his voice and said, "Ma Shengran is too arrogant. We can't keep suppressing him. What's more, when I become the township head, I am the head of Jin County."

I am recommended by County Magistrate Jin to support me, but I am afraid that Ma Shengran will make a fool of him!"

"Shh!" Tan Gang made a quieter gesture, implying that Liu Shuxi was Ma Shengran's die-hard spokesperson, so it was better to be careful and not let him listen.
