The jeep returned to the 8th Guest House.
From the name, it was obvious that this was a military guesthouse. Principal Zhu had a comrade who worked in the Daning Garrison Command and was in charge of logistics. This guest house was managed by the logistics department of the Daning Garrison Command. Principal Zhu, his daughter, and Xiao Tan stayed here for four or five days. Their comrade paid for them all, and they didn't spend a single cent on accommodation and food. However, since he had already paid the bill and left, Principal Zhu was too embarrassed to inform his comrade when he returned. Anyway, he was the principal of a school. It didn't matter if he went back and signed for reimbursement.
As soon as he settled in, Principal Zhu stayed in Liu Weihong's room and refused to leave. He did not speak either. His meaning was clear. He wanted him to contact him as soon as possible.
Zhu Yuxia, on the other hand, was " aloof " and did not even bother to gather around, allowing Principal Zhu to do whatever he wanted. She did not know if she did it on purpose or if she did not believe that Liu Weihong could do it. The other party watched coldly from the sidelines and at least watched from the sidelines for a while. However, she did not even have to watch from the sidelines. It seemed like Liu Weihong owed her.
If it was in the past, a few months before Liu Weihong had been reborn, Second Brother Liu would have run away with Zhu Yuxia's attitude. He would not have bothered with her at all.
But now, Liu Weihong had changed his mind. Since he had decided to start over, everything had to change. The so-called network of relationships was a conflict of interests. You help me, I help you, each of us show our abilities, and each of us carries the other.
How could he improve if he didn't use his resources?
Liu Weihong did not hide anything. He grabbed his phone and called Beijing.
"Hello, is this Auntie Xiao? I'm Liu Weihong…Yes, yes, it's me, Erzi…Auntie Xiao, are you in good health?”
As soon as the call went through, Liu Weihong smiled. His mouth was as sweet as honey. It seemed that the woman on the other end of the phone was indeed very familiar with his situation. She called him Erzi the moment she opened her mouth.
"Auntie Xiao, it's like this. There's something I want you to say, hehe..."
After chatting for a while, Liu Weihong briefly told them about Zhu Yuxia.
"Erzi, you're so young, but you've already learned how to do these dirty tricks. You've gotten into Auntie Xiao's house through the back door? Does your mother know about this?"
Auntie Xiao seemed to be in a good mood and teased Liu Weihong.
Liu Weihong smiled." Auntie Xiao, it's such a big deal. You solved it with just one sentence. Do you need to tell my mom?" "Auntie Xiao, Principal Zhu is my superior. If you don't help me, I won't be able to live well in school in the future. If our principal makes things difficult for me, I'll blame you!"”
Liu Weihong grinned at Principal Zhu.
Principal Zhu was relieved to hear his relaxed tone. Although he didn't know who Auntie Xiao was on the other end of the phone, he was sure that she had a special relationship with Liu Weihong. As long as Auntie Xiao was capable, she would probably help Liu Weihong.
"Okay, okay, I'll give you a call. I can't guarantee that it'll work. Your provincial Health Department is mainly under the jurisdiction of the provincial government. In our department, it's business management. We don't care about other people's money or their hats. I don't even know if Director Liao is giving me face…"
Although Auntie Xiao said that, her tone was unusually relaxed. It was as if such a matter was really trivial and not worth mentioning. It could be resolved with a phone call.
"Auntie Xiao, you're too humble. How dare Director Liao not listen to you? He didn't have such guts? How many things do they ask you to do every year…Alright, I'll call you again in half an hour.”
Liu Weihong was very clear about the relationship between them.
Before the call ended, Principal Zhu's gaze on Liu Weihong changed. In the past, he had always been condescending. In front of Liu Weihong, he had always acted like an elder and a leader. In his eyes, Liu Weihong was just a smart and motivated young teacher. Although they were from the capital, not all of them were leading officials. After all, the revolutionary masses made up the majority. But now, Principal Zhu naturally wouldn't see it that way. Even if Liu Weihong was a revolutionary in the capital, he could not be ignored for having such connections.
"Weihong, what leader?"
After Liu Weihong hung up the phone, Principal Zhu probed. He felt that it was very mysterious. From what Liu Weihong said, Auntie Xiao on the other end of the phone might be a cadre of the Wei Sheng Department.
"One of my mom's classmates works in the Wei Sheng Department." I'm not sure what kind of leader he is…Hehe, it's not appropriate for me to ask about their elders. However, Auntie Xiao was very popular in the Ministry, so Director Liao must give her some face.”
These words were a little insincere.
Aunt Xiao and Lin Meiru were close, but they were not classmates. They were best friends. Auntie Xiao was also a member of an aristocratic family. She was the person in charge of a department in the Weisheng Department.
In the capital, everything was about status and social circle. In terms of prestige, the Xiao family was far inferior to the Old Liu family. According to the rules of the circle, Lin Meiru was still considered to be " climbing up the social ladder ". However, to the Provincial Department Director Liao, Aunt Xiao, who was born into a prestigious family, was an unattainable existence. Moreover, he was the official head of the Weisheng Department. In terms of business, there were indeed many things that the provincial department asked of him. Director Liao would never offend Auntie Xiao for a thesis award. To put it bluntly, it was just an increase of a few thousand yuan. For a 'country bumpkin' like Principal Zhu and Zhu Yuxia who had no connections, it seemed to be extremely sacred and difficult to touch. In the eyes of the real big shots, such a thing was simply too small to be worth mentioning.
Liu Weihong had personally visited the day before yesterday. Auntie Xiao knew that Liu Weihong was no longer the same as before. Auntie Xiao could not refuse such a small request. Otherwise, how would he talk to Lin Meiru the next time he saw her?
Liu Weihong did not explain Auntie Xiao's specific position clearly, so Principal Zhu was not sure. In Principal Zhu's opinion, this matter was too difficult. He had been wandering around the provincial capital for a few days, treating guests and giving gifts. He had spent a lot of money, but he could not even enter the basic door. Not to mention Director Liao, he didn't even see the specific personnel handling the case.
Now, Liu Weihong was just a young man in his early twenties. Could it be that he really had such great ability?
"Principal, don't be impatient. Since Auntie Xiao agreed to make this call, she must have some confidence. We'll know the result later. Have a seat first, I'll get you some tea."
Liu Weihong smiled and swiftly picked up the kettle to pour two cups of tea. The taste of the tea leaves in the guest house was not very good, but most of the hotels in the provincial capital were of such a standard, so they could only make do with it.
"Sigh, Weihong, you don't know, but for Yuxia's intermediate title, I've had a headache these past two years. You know my personality. I don't like to beg others. Was it? " I, Zhu Jianguo, am a five-foot-tall man. I have been in the army and have been to the countryside. Now, I'm even a principal. Although my salary is not high, I don't have to worry about food and drink. For such a small matter, he had to beg his grandfather and grandmother. Looking at the other party's expression, he really didn't feel good…but what could he do? Yuxia is my child, right? As her parents, they owed her and had to worry about her.”
Perhaps Principal Zhu felt that he couldn't do such a thing himself and that it would be embarrassing to ask such a young subordinate to help, so he started nagging.
People were like that. When they were embarrassed, they would talk more. He always wanted to find an excuse to cover up and explain. It seemed that he would feel bad if he didn't do so.
"I understand, I understand. I can totally understand…It's a pity that parents have the heart of a parent. My parents are the same. They're always worried that I'll suffer in the countryside. I told them that I have a good principal who takes good care of me and told them not to worry.”
Liu Weihong nodded repeatedly to show his understanding and gave him a high hat.
Just as Principal Zhu had said, he was a principal and a leader. As long as it was a leader, there was no one who didn't like to be praised. This was because they lived in a " flattering atmosphere " all day long, and had long taken flattery seriously. When other people, especially subordinates, spoke to their leaders, if they did not casually give them numerous high hats, the leaders would feel very uncomfortable and think that they were disrespectful and self-righteous. I have a lot of opinions about you.
The so-called " normal communication " between the leader and the subordinate did not exist at all.
How could it be normal with the identities of both parties?
"Haha, I didn't take care of you. It's mainly because you work hard. I'm just following the rules.”
Principal Zhu also said a few humble words, and the expression on his face became much more natural.
No matter what, Liu Weihong was very sensible. It was rare for young people nowadays to be as knowledgeable and well-behaved as him. Principal Zhu's impression of Liu Weihong improved.
The two of them chatted while drinking tea. Principal Zhu kept looking at his watch and the phone from time to time. It seemed that half an hour was too long. She wished that Auntie Xiao would inform her of the good news now.
Principal Zhu's attitude made Liu Weihong a little impatient. After ten minutes, he picked up the phone again and called Auntie Xiao.
Erzi, you're quite impatient…"
Auntie Xiao teased on the other end of the phone.
"This matter is of great importance.”
Liu Weihong continued with a smile.
"Hehe, what a great thing…I've already contacted Director Liao, it's not a big problem. You and your friend, go to the provincial office tomorrow to find him and report the specific situation to him. He will arrange it.”
Auntie Xiao said with a smile.
If it was someone else, Auntie Xiao would definitely not be so straightforward. She would definitely use a formal tone. However, in front of the grandson of the Old Liu family, it was better not to use this official tone. Why did he have to take credit for such a small matter?
"Thank you, Auntie Xiao. The next time I return to the capital, I'll still go to your place to get some benefits!”
Auntie Xiao smiled.”
"Who asked you to be an elder? If I don't hit you, who else would I hit?”
Liu Weihong smiled and asked for Chief Liao's phone number.
Thank you for the rare gifts from Confused 1973, Mann Lin, Ywyflying, and so on!
