The dreamy melody was gentle and charming. It brought people a beautiful illusion. The flashy but expensive dishes showed the enthusiasm of the host. Yu Ming and the finance officer, one master and one guest, sat at the top respectively. The rest of the attendants and attendants sat down in turn. They carefully observed the conversation between the two big shots, tried to figure out the progress of the " matter ", predicted the possible outcome, and the attitude they should take when necessary with their identity and mission.
Banquets in officialdom were usually very boring. Here. Although it was a polite and friendly atmosphere. There was no lack of high-end food and wine, and no lack of elegant speech. However, people had to maintain a fatal distance between them because of their different levels and identities. The wine and food tasted like wax in his mouth, and he didn't mean what he said. The ladies were dressed in bright and beautiful clothes, but they did not show any fragrance, fragrance, or lifeless joy. The men were elegant and unrestrained, but they did not have a happy and comfortable mood. Even if someone's words were excessive and his behavior was out of control because of alcohol, he would be constantly criticized and laughed at by people afterwards. Sigh, it was better to prepare a few dishes at home and casually pinch two taels of wine in a small wine cup than to eat such a boring and dull luxurious meal!
However, the atmosphere tonight was very relaxed. The originally serious theme seemed to have been diluted by the friendly atmosphere created by the new chief. Ren Chan didn't feel the usual nervousness and worry of an official banquet. The young chief and the finance official hit it off at first sight and chatted happily. They talked about life genes from the celestial bodies, from the Chang'e Moon Project to the space walk. From the US mortgage crisis to the turmoil in the Chinese stock market, from the government's rescue to the collapse of the market, from the Yellow Emperor to the prosperous era of the Kang and Qian Dynasties…It was probably because the topics of the sea and the sky could reduce the weight of their respective interests and reflect the vastness of people's minds and the detachment of temperament. The two of them talked endlessly, but their conversation did not sound like a folk joke. Everyone spoke appropriately, toasted and advised the dishes politely, and the topics were elegant, fashionable and popular. The subordinates who were waiting for the toast were mesmerized.
"Ah, drink, don't just talk.”On the surface, Ju Caixiu was listening quietly like the others, but she had been anxious for a long time. Why did these two Russians only know how to chat and not talk about serious matters!
200 million yuan was the theme of today's banquet!
"Director, come, let me toast you!”Ju Caixiu called out," Director!" She was either excited or anxious. In reality, this deputy inspector was only a rank treatment. In terms of position, it could not be the same as the director. Alas, in order to get money,
He couldn't care less. This high official was more useful than a real director! Anyway, it didn't cost him anything to call her "Director". If she liked it, he could just call her that!
"Yo, Chief Yu, we were too busy talking to ourselves to treat this beautiful chief coldly.”The finance official stood up and reached out his hand to clink glasses with Cai Xiu.
"Director, I won't say any more polite words.”Ju Caixiu felt that she couldn't drink this cup of wine for nothing. She had to get something back." Your presence here today is a great favor to our Ji Plain!”
"Haha…is Cai Xiu a human?”The finance minister wiped away the white beer foam on his lips. He tried to probe the other party's expression jokingly.
"Director, you must have seen our city's report. That 100 million yuan of financial resources, the provincial government would have to return it!”
"Caixiu, have you forgotten that your city owed the provincial tax revenue of 28 million yuan last year? That 100 million yuan was deducted according to the country's policy.”
"Director, there are some reasons I won't say. Our city's wealthiest oil factory in the north has been collected by the province. Where are we going to get this 25% tax revenue? Why don't you reduce our city's tax base by 300 million yuan, and I'll maintain a high profile and not say anything…The province is taking drastic measures against us, so why do they want to drink more of our blood?”
"Caixiu!" When the finance official heard this, he seemed to be a little emotional." You shouldn't be saying these things. He should let Qin Bai and Lu Qiang talk to the governor.”After saying this, he put down the cup in his hand with a bang." Ah, Chief Yu, don't be so formal. I'm happy today, so let me say something after I'm drunk. Your Ji Yuan City is really too 'big'. He could only watch helplessly as others bullied him. The other cities reported low numbers, but you reported the more, the better. Other cities only have a base of one billion a year, but you set it at 1.8 billion all at once. That Lu Qiang of yours is so extravagant. They even had to make up an auspicious number to pay taxes, yet they had to put up a face and reported 1.8 billion yuan, and even said that they were 'going to be rich',' going to be rich'. Hehe, they were joking with the hard-earned money of the common people of Ji Plain!”
When the time came, Yu Ming took the opportunity to raise his glass," Director, let's not talk about the past." Now, I'm the chief of the Shi department and in charge of financial affairs. This month, the government had stopped paying salaries. You have to let us eat!"
"No pay? " Hmm..." The finance official was shocked at first. Then, he held his chin with his hand, squinted his eyes, and pretended to think for a while. Then, he winked at the director he had brought," Director, the money in our treasury..."
"Oh, the governor told us to set aside 100 million for Ji Yuan, and we have already done so.”The director obviously didn't understand what the finance official meant. Plus, he drank too much and revealed his boss's trump card before it was too late.
"What, that…that's the money for the grain return!”The finance official flew into a rage out of humiliation, this disappointing thing!
"Oh, yes, yes, it's the money for the refund.”The director knew that he had committed a big taboo and hurriedly changed his words. He knew his boss well. He liked to play tricks in the officialdom. The 100 million yuan that was returned to Ji Plain had been decided by the governor long ago. The governor demanded that they transfer the money to Ji Yuan's financial account before the new year. However, this old fellow who practiced the mafia would not easily give out this 100 million yuan if he did not hear the 'small talk' of the people of Ji Plain. It is better for the county magistrate to manage it now. The old man did this because he wanted Ji Yuan to owe him a favor. She was just grateful to him. Thinking of this, the division chief's brain twisted and he corrected himself." However, haven't you always been concerned about the 100 million yuan in Ji Plain? You always remind us that Ji Plain is too difficult and we have to find a way to return the 100 million to them as soon as possible…"
"Alright, looks like…I'll have to use the vinegar money to buy soy sauce.”The finance official was very satisfied with his subordinate's " awakening ". He blinked his eyes proudly and said," Right now, too many departments are asking for money. The allocation lists from all over the country are almost three feet thick…How about this? We'll stop the other lists for now. You guys try your best to guarantee that the 100 million yuan from Ji Plain will be transferred to us as soon as possible."”
"Yes." The director immediately nodded.
"Thank you, Director!" Yu Ming grabbed the finance official's hand and clenched it. The two of them looked up, and the wine in their cups was completely emptied.
"Yes, and the money for the grain return and the settlement funds, you might as well pay them all!”Ju Caixiu took advantage of the situation and pressed forward step by step.
"Cai Xiu, you still want to kick me?”The finance official had suffered a huge loss and was no longer fooled." These few sums added up to another 100 million. You have to let me catch my breath! Yes, the governor had said something about this money, but the governor's words did not mean that the government had money.”
Speaking of this, he turned his face and looked at Yu Ming. He once again emphasized the absolute truth of " the governor's words do not mean that the finances are rich."" Chief Yu, the money she mentioned will be in January next year at the earliest."”
"January then." Ju Caixiu followed his words and slipped up. Then, he felt happy and seized the opportunity to shout,"Uncle Director, my subordinates are grateful for your support in my work. Come, let me toast you.”
"What, uncle?" The finance official was stunned for a moment. Then, he laughed." This Ju Caixiu is really naughty.”
Hahaha... The people drank heavily again with the smell of alcohol.
Ju Caixiu's toast was worth it. Although she did not have much alcohol tolerance, the stimulating mixture was very smooth in her stomach. Because holding her breath allowed her to escape a difficult situation. The difficulty was not money, but the drinking between a man and a woman that followed. The finance minister had a bad habit at the table. Whenever he showed his trump card, he would take advantage of the moment when the other party was extremely grateful and drink with the most beautiful lady at the table hand in hand. The cross-goblet wine of the Celestial Empire was the wine for newlyweds to drink in the same room. Under normal circumstances, it was not allowed to drink. However, the finance officials had money in their hands, and they could grasp the best timing. This kind of excessively playful drinking method was not rejected, and they were often encouraged and encouraged by the people at the table.
However, he would not be able to take advantage of this today.
Since Ju Caixiu was willing to be her niece, he, as her uncle, couldn't play pranks anymore.
