Chapter 854-5(1/2)
Zhang Mei had seen Chen Taizhong a long time ago. At that time, Chen and Jing Ziling were discussing Zixia Fairy. Then, for some unknown reason, she met the two of them from a distance, as if by a strange coincidence.
When the two were joking in Yao Huang's flower garden, they never imagined that a young woman was looking at this seemingly well-matched couple from a distance, with extremely complicated emotions.
Robert Kincaid has his unique smile... Looking at the playful and uninhibited Chen Taizhong, Zhang Mei couldn't help but think of that rainy night and that unforgettable affair.
Robert Kincaid...should have been a playboy like him, right?
For some reason, when she saw Jing Ziling, she couldn't even raise her jealousy. It wasn't because the girl was so beautiful that she felt ashamed, but because she thought Chen Taizhong should be such a man.
A bohemian man, a little bad, and occasionally a little sincere, but when the darkness receded and the sun filled the earth again, he stood up and left decisively. Of course, there might be a touch of reluctance accompanying him when he left.
gaze.
He was really the devil in my life! At the end, Zhang Mei's mind was so full of thoughts that she didn't even realize that her brain couldn't think anymore.
When Chen Taizhong started arguing with the administrator, she couldn't help but moved over slowly. There were many people watching. Yes, he probably wouldn't notice me.
But...do I want him to discover me? Asking herself, Zhang Mei found that she couldn't answer herself.
However, what must come will always come, and suddenly, she found herself face to face with this young man and woman.
When Chen Taizhong saw her for the first time, he felt a little strange and indescribable in his heart. Originally, he thought he owed her nothing, but it wasn't until the two of them faced each other in broad daylight that he was shocked to discover that he
In my heart, I actually felt a little bit guilty.
What a weird thing! He was a little confused for a moment, but when he thought of Jing Ziling next to him, he felt a little relieved: I guess it's because my brother didn't want to look too fucked up in front of Xiao Ziling!
With this judgment, his next behavior became much more natural. He smiled at Zhang Mei and said, "Haha, what a coincidence. I actually met you in Subo."
"Yeah," Zhang Mei nodded casually. Although her expression was well controlled, her heart was already in a mess. "I'll do some errands and take a look at the flower show."
"Oh, me too." Chen Taizhong smiled and nodded, "Long time no see. By the way, why did you come to Subo? Do you need help?"
The two of them just talked to each other in vain, and it took a long time for Chen Taizhong to remember to introduce Jing Ziling beside him. Fortunately, Zhang Mei was in a trance and forgot to ask Jing Ziling's identity.
The foreign trade in the city where Zhang Mei is located is getting more and more sluggish. She just wants to start a small business on her own. She came to Subo this time because she heard about a very capable guy who got the quota for textile exports.
I want to see if I can buy it.
Who would have thought that as soon as people heard that she didn't have her own factory, they wouldn't talk to her at all. In the end, they just said, "Do you think I don't have to take risks in setting quotas? If you destroy my brand, I will never be able to sell my business in the future."
What to do again?”
She talked hard, and the other party agreed to let her buy the quota at a high price. However, the payment must not be ambiguous. Get the deposit first, and then talk about anything else.
Pang Zhongze is very unsupportive of his wife's behavior. In Director Pang's view, there are too many scammers these days. If you have the money to take risks to do business, it is better to manage the leadership. Well, Minister Qiu Zhixi is a very easy-to-reach person.
Just one person.
In fact, Minister Qiu's reputation as a lecherous person was known to many people in Hengshan's middle and lower-level official circles, and Director Pang had also heard about it. He thought that his wife had been invaded by outsiders anyway, and it wouldn't matter one more time, so he actually started a fight.
Got this idea.
It's just a pity that Director Pang's reputation is really bad because of the misappropriation of fund-raising funds. One person knows that he was transferred from the director of the sub-district office to the director of the local geography office because he caused public outrage.
Faced with Director Pang's flattery, Minister Qiu was a little embarrassed. He also coveted Zhang Mei's beauty. However, people from the Yijing Subdistrict Office were behind Pang Zhongze's efforts. Above them were the wishes of the Iron Lady Wu Yan, plus the district's
Even if other people's rumors got into his head, Minister Qiu didn't dare to agree to anything, "Let's wait for a while and let the limelight pass."
After a while, it was hard to say whether the limelight had passed. Fang Jin, the executive deputy mayor and deputy secretary who had a close relationship with Minister Qiu, had just arrived. Now that he had become a deputy director of the Municipal People's Congress, Qiu Zhixi's influence had naturally shrunk.
Quite a few.
Anyway, Director Pang is determined to get involved in the officialdom, so he definitely doesn't support Zhang Mei's behavior of using money to do business. But the good news is that the financial rights of the family are controlled by Director Pang.
inside!
In fact, it is not accurate to say that they are under control. The two of them are just doing their own thing. Ever since Zhang Mei married Pang Zhongze, she has devoted herself to raising her husband and raising her children, hoping that her husband will be honored and his wife will be honored.
She knew that there were many places to spend money in the officialdom, and she was afraid that her lover would not be able to spend enough, so she might make some mistakes, so she never opened her mouth to him. All the expenses at home were paid for by her own salary, and she was a good wife and mother.
Only when her salary was really hard to cover, she would ask Pang Zhongze for money. It was not until the past two years that this happened more and more. Although Director Pang never refused,... Zhang Mei really didn't have anything in her hands.
money.
Since there is no support from Pang Zhongze, the money she used to come to Subo this time is still the 50,000 that Chen Taizhong gave her, and the 30,000 that her husband gave symbolically, which is only a mere 80,000.
Of course, Zhang Mei would not tell Chen Taizhong about this dilemma. Everyone's understanding of dignity is different. But since she had bumped into her and couldn't escape, she still wanted Chen Taizhong to give her some advice. See
She wasn't sure whether this thing could be done, and her husband didn't support it. Since Director Chen was good at attracting investment, then...it wouldn't kill anyone just to ask.
Chen Taizhong is willing to talk about this topic. He understands very well that this difference between himself and Zhang Mei cannot be hidden from Jing Ziling. However, since Zhang Mei can find a more suitable topic, it can obviously avoid some embarrassment.
Everyone needs a step, even if in his heart he may not really be willing to talk about quotas.
Chen Taizhong didn't know much about foreign trade, but he had friends, didn't he? So, after listening to Zhang Mei, he smiled and nodded, "Okay, but don't rush to give him money. It's not easy for you to make some money."
…”
When he said this, he couldn't help stumbling, and Zhang Mei's face also turned slightly red. Fortunately, she answered the question more naturally, "Now it's not a matter of me not giving him money, but that he doesn't want it."
…”
Thank you. That talented person from Luhai Province is very arrogant. Originally, Zhang Mei came to Subo yesterday. She thought that if she could get it done today, she could go back the same day and not miss the regular foreign trade meeting on Monday.
.
As a result, the person said that for just tens of thousands of dollars, it was not worth his overtime work on weekends. If you are willing to wait, you can wait until Monday. If you are not willing to wait, then go back first.
This made Zhang Mei very depressed. However, it was a buyer's market now, and she could not control her temper. After having dinner with her friends from Subo Foreign Trade at noon, she was really bored by herself, so she came to the flower show to relax and relax.
Who would have thought that he would meet this guy Chen Taizhong, accompanied by his new "fresca", a young and beautiful girl who makes all women jealous.
There will still be no results between the two of them! Deep in her heart, Zhang Mei made a judgment with some malice: Chen Taizhong is not a man that any woman can capture!
"Ah ha, this guy is quite cool," Chen Taizhong was a little unconvinced when he heard this. He just had a small amount of resources and was not even interested in working overtime?
Damn, this guy is still running around all day long. He is as tired as a cow in busy farming season. How can the gap between people be so big?
However, thinking of this, Chen Taizhong inevitably realized one more thing, that is: since the resources in this person's hands dared to be sold in a blatant manner, it was obviously not illegal.
Since it is legal or an act that is on the edge of the law, wouldn't getting some of these resources back also promote the development of Phoenix City's exports?
"I'm not leaving tonight," Chen Taizhong turned to look at Jing Ziling, "I'll help Zhang Mei check the situation tomorrow, and if it's appropriate, see if I can get some projects back for Phoenix."
In fact, there was another reason why he didn't leave, and that was because he wanted to directly disrupt Huang He Laosan's plans for the Agricultural Bank of China building. Anyway, since he was here, let's do something.
"That's up to you," Jing Ziling promised, but out of the corner of her eye, she noticed a slight unnatural look on Zhang Mei's face.
Zhang Mei obviously took his words as some kind of hint, and she was really struggling in her heart. If we break up at dawn, if you come to me again, it will break the tacit understanding between us!
Chapter 855: The copycat comes to your door
The happy time is always short. Before you know it, the sun sets, and Chen Taizhong and Jing Ziling are about to leave the park. The phone rings, but it is a call from Shen Tong, "Six o'clock, Wufulou Seafood
The hotel, see you there or see you."
"Let's go, we won't be out for a long time," Chen Taizhong walked to the parking lot with Jing Ziling and Shi Shiran, "I'll take you home first. Well, where is the Wufulou Seafood Restaurant?"
Jing Ziling didn't answer him. After walking a few steps silently, she suddenly turned around and looked at him, "That Zhang Mei just now, did you have a complicated relationship with you?"
"No," Chen Taizhong shook his head resolutely, "Her husband committed a crime and wanted me to help. It was too much, so I didn't agree."
"Hmph, don't think I can't tell," Jing Ziling's face turned a little pale, then she shook her head and sighed, "Forget it, actually... I'm not anyone like you, right, haha."
Her smile was a little sad.
"I'm not a good person to begin with." For some reason, Chen Taizhong felt slightly heartbroken when he saw her expression, so he didn't want to hide anything. "I have many women, very many."
"Then why are you still trying to hook up with me?" Jing Ziling glared at him.
"What you said makes me feel a little unfair. I just have poor self-control," Chen Taizhong smiled and shrugged with regret.
He disagreed with this accusation, "You are very beautiful. However, I didn't seem to have any idea at first, because you... are very similar to the same person, haha."
"I want to meet your classmate's sister," Jing Ziling's memory is not so good, she can still remember Chen Taizhong's perfunctory words unintentionally.
"Heaven and man are separated forever, alas," Chen Taizhong sighed. Actually... this is the truth.
"Then...let's go," Jing Ziling's thinking was quite unique. After saying that, she moved her long legs and walked forward slowly, "It's a woman who is treating you to dinner, and I want to go too!"
"It's Shen Tong. Have you seen it?" Chen Taizhong was a little depressed. What are you doing? "Isn't that to thank me for saving her?"
"I asked you to save him, but you still wanted to hit him at that time." Jing Ziling smiled proudly. When she said this, she couldn't help but think of the first time she met Shen Tong. That time, Chen Taizhong was inexplicably feverish. It's more than ten degrees.
This is the fundamental reason why I feel free to ask you to treat grandpa. She turned her head and looked at him. Suddenly, she felt that this man... seemed to be a bottomless well. Although small blisters appeared from time to time at the mouth of the well, The amount of water stored in the well might turn the Sahara Desert into an oasis.
Actually, it was me who threw myself into the trap. Thinking of this, she curled her lips in a very secretive way. I didn’t tell anyone about these things, and I didn’t see you appreciate it!
Now I am thinking about taking advantage of me all day long. Huh, how can I take advantage of you so easily?
With Jing Ziling's guidance, finding the Wufu Building was not a problem. However, halfway through the Lincoln car, Meng Xiaoyan called and asked Chen Taizhong to pick her up. "We'll go back to Phoenix together after dinner."
"Tsk, I'm afraid... I won't be able to leave at once," Chen Taizhong felt a little guilty. His working hours are very comfortable, but Meng Xiaoyan is different. She is not only a principal but also a teacher. Tomorrow is Monday. If she can't make it back to Phoenix, it will be delayed. Work place.
"Huh?" Sure enough, Meng Xiaoyan didn't expect to get such an answer. She hesitated for a moment before asking in a low voice, "Is it convenient for you to pick me up now?"
"It's convenient," Chen Taizhong turned his head and looked at Jing Ziling beside him, thinking that what is supposed to come will always come, whoever you love is who...
However, when Meng Xiaoyan saw Jing Ziling, she didn't have any inappropriate expression. Instead, she pulled her enthusiastically, and the two of them chatted in the back seat. Of course, the main thing she asked about was Jing Yiyuan's condition.
What Chen Taizhong didn't expect was that Shen Tong, like Han Zhong, also brought a friend to the banquet. That was Mr. Jia of the Galen Group. She was a woman over forty years old and well-maintained.
This woman... I seem to have heard of it somewhere. Chen Taizhong was racking his brains to recall it. Leng Buding saw a diamond ring on her hand and remembered that this name was mentioned by someone in the Bank of China. At that time, there was a Mei My sister said that Meng Qinqin’s diamond ring is bigger than Mr. Jia’s.
