In the city appearance office, a fat middle-aged man kept wiping the cold sweat on his forehead and spoke into the microphone in a respectful tone.
"yes!"
…
"yes!"
…
"I see!"
…
"yes!"
…
"Okay, okay!"
…
After a while, the middle-aged man put down the phone and breathed a long sigh of relief. His expression immediately changed and he said through gritted teeth.
"Xiao Yang! Go and find out who made the reporting call this morning!"
Xiao Yang secretly glanced at the sullen leader, secretly guessing in his mind, what on earth caused the leader to get so angry? Wasn't it just that he fined a small vendor this morning? What else could go wrong?
Ding Qi yelled: "Hurry up and go!"
Xiao Yang's neck immediately twitched, and his head felt like pounding garlic: "Yes, yes, I'll go right now!"
Two minutes later, Xiao Yang hurried into the office, panting.
"Ding Ke, I just checked and found out that the person who reported the phone call in the morning did not leave any personal information."
"What? No name?" Ding Qi raised his eyebrows, banged his desk, then pointed at his nose and cursed: "You dare to turn over an anonymous report? Do you think SI/REN/BANG is still there?
?”
'It's not me who turned around, why are you scolding me?'
Xiao Yang lowered his head and muttered to himself. Of course, he would never dare to say this sentence. Didn't you see that the leader was angry now? He didn't dare to point the gun at him.
The phone call just now made Ding Qi break out in a cold sweat. He didn't expect that the stall was actually established with the approval of his superiors. If he had known the news earlier, and given his 800 courage, he wouldn't have dared to find trouble.
The midday sun shines into the room through the glass windows, the air is sultry, and the old-fashioned ceiling fan above his head makes a buzzing sound. The more Ding Qi listens, the more irritable he becomes.
Fortunately, this call came today. If I received this call tomorrow, I would not be able to get back the money I paid, and there would be no room for recovery.
'no!'
'This matter must be settled today!'
With this in mind, Ding Qi picked up the cowhide bag on the table and ordered.
"Xiao Yang, follow me out!"
"By the way, go to the Finance Department to intercept the order and get back the morning fine!"
"Yes! I'll go right away!"
When Xiao Yang heard this, he immediately stood up and hurried towards the finance room.
Yao Wenguang's sharp eyes were at the front door of the building. When he saw the fat man who had fined him in the morning, he came again. His face immediately changed, turning as black as the bottom of a pot, and he cursed.
"Chunming, the fat man from this morning is here again! This thief really thinks we are made of mud!"
When Li Jie heard the news, he saw Ding Qi walking towards him with a smile on his face. Seeing the other party's expression, he knew that the phone call at noon had worked.
Yang Jianhua's movements were fast enough. It seemed that this guy understood the pros and cons.
This is normal. After all, the other party has an extraordinary background and has received better education than ordinary people since childhood, so his vision is naturally different.
"Hello, little comrade! Hello! What happened this morning was all a misunderstanding. I just went back to check. This stall has been registered a long time ago. It was a mistake in my work!"
As he spoke, Ding Qi took out the morning's fine from his bag with a very low posture, completely losing his previous arrogance.
"In this case, I will return the fine to you, and you hand me the ticket."
Li Jie accepted the apology with a smile, but did not reach out to get the money. Ding Qi immediately became anxious when he saw this. What would he do if he didn't take the money?
take!
Must take it!
If he doesn't return it, how can he do his job?
Now that you're here, this matter must be done. If the other party doesn't take it, it doesn't matter. I can force it through.
"Comrade, hey, count the money and see if it's right. Misunderstanding, all of this is a misunderstanding! We are flooding the Dragon King Temple!"
Li Jie smiled slightly, took a step back and said, "Comrade, I think what you said this morning is reasonable. Setting up a stall here does have a bad impact and we should be punished!"
Ding Qi slowly took his hand back, smiled awkwardly, and said plausibly: "Where, where, how can it affect the appearance of the city? This is obviously a good thing that benefits the country and the people. It not only facilitates the people, but also solves the employment problem.
!”
At the same time, he secretly complained in his heart that the boy in front of him was difficult to deal with.
When Yao Wenguang saw Ding Qi's arrogant and respectful attitude, he couldn't stand it. He spat loudly on purpose and glanced at Ding Qi provocatively.
"Pooh!"
After being in the officialdom for so many years, Ding Qi has long developed a face thicker than a city wall. This small gesture could not affect him at all. Instead, he licked his face and took a step forward and put the money on the chopping board.
"Comrade, we are all a family. The fine is purely a misunderstanding. I'll put the money here. You can click and see if the number is correct. It's twenty-seven yuan, fifty-three cents, a penny is a lot."
!”
Li Jie nodded slightly. The other party was from the City Appearance Office, and he would have to deal with him in the future. This time, the other party was at fault first, so teasing him would not be a big problem. There was no need to offend him too harshly.
If you firmly refuse to take back the money, it will not end well.
Let's bypass him for now. When the big bowl of tea mode spreads, I will have withdrawn by then, and it will be okay no matter how much I offend him.
"Wenguang, come on, click a little and see if the money is right!"
“Great!”
Yao Wenguang picked up the money on the chopping board with a smile, and counted it carefully. While counting, he deliberately reported the number loudly. After counting it once, he did not let go and counted it again.
On the second count, he touched each note carefully, unabashedly expressing his distrust of Ding Qi and making it clear that he was trying to identify the authenticity of the notes.
Ding Qi knew that the other party did this deliberately to show him, and he was secretly angry in his heart, but on the surface he had to act like he didn't mind.
'I endure it!'
'I endure it!'
After counting it three times, Yao Wenguang finally spoke out after feeling satisfied.
"Chunming, the money is no problem, a total of twenty-seven dollars and fifty-three cents!"
"Okay, put the money in the box." Li Jie was busy entertaining customers and ordered without looking back. Then he said to Ding Qi: "Chief Ding, we are busy with business now and don't have time to say hello. Please don't
Please introduce."
Ding Qi generously said that he didn't mind at all. Now that he had paid back the money, he was waiting to get the order back. However, the business at the stall was really busy at the moment, and he was embarrassed to rush it.
But he had to get the order back, so he had to stand aside and wait. Unfortunately, there were stoves for boiling water near where he was standing, and he started to sweat profusely after not standing for long.
The temperature near the shed was even higher than where the sun was shining outside. Ding Qi raised his head and glanced at the scorching sun in the sky, then silently took a few steps back.
The wait lasted for more than two hours. Finally, when the flow of people reduced, Ding Qi hurriedly took advantage of the opportunity and said.
"Little comrade, that list... list!"
Indeed, Liang fabric is the most popular material nowadays, but it has a big disadvantage: it has poor air permeability, and it sticks to the body when sweating. Ding Qi stood next to him for so long, and his clothes looked like they were washed. Li
Jie secretly smiled in his heart, and then deliberately pretended to be suddenly enlightened.
"Yes, yes, yes, you see, I was so busy that I forgot about it."
Then Li Jie pretended to search around, and finally took out a shredded 'list' from his pocket.
"Oh, this..."
Ding Qi walked a few steps closer and looked at the badly damaged list in Li Jie's hand. He could vaguely see the style and confirmed that the paper was the same as the one they used.
It's just that it's rotten like this, and it won't be of much use if you take it back. Ding Qi sighed.
