After hanging up Auntie Xiao's call, Liu Weihong knew that the matter had been settled. However, he still had to make a phone call to Chief Liao first. The director couldn't just sit there all day and wait for you to visit him.
Auntie Xiao had just spoken to Chief Liao on the phone, so she should still be in the office.
Liu Weihong dialed Bureau Chief Liao's number and thought that he would have a cell phone in two years. He was used to using his phone in the past. He was not used to it when he suddenly returned to this era. Fortunately, he was smart enough to remember Chief Liao's phone number after hearing it once.
"Hello!"
The call went through as soon as it was dialed. A dignified middle-aged man's voice came from the other end. Although it was only the most ordinary two words, it inevitably had a hint of official tone. People who stayed in the system for a long time were all like this. Even Auntie Xiao couldn't help but say the same thing when she spoke with a smile.
"Hello, Director Liao. I'm Xiao Liu, Auntie Xiao just called you…Ah, yes, yes, it's me…Haha, thank you for your concern, Director Liao. We're staying at Bayi Guest House in the Garrison Guard District…Ah, yes, I wonder when Director Liao is free tomorrow morning. I'd like to come over and visit with my two friends? Oh, nine o'clock…Alright, thank you for your concern, Director Liao. Alright, see you tomorrow!”
Liu Weihong smiled.
There was no doubt that when Auntie Xiao communicated with Chief Liao, she must have only mentioned Liu Weihong's name. As for Principal Zhu and Zhu Yuxia, Auntie Xiao would not have bothered to remember them. She was only giving face to Liu Weihong. As for who Liu Weihong wanted to plead for, it had nothing to do with Auntie Xiao.
After all, this wasn't a big deal, and he wouldn't make a mistake even if he helped.
Even if he made a mistake, he had to help!
How could the Old Liu family's brand not work?
Principal Zhu's anxious heart finally relaxed after hearing the phone call. It seemed like Liu Weihong's auntie in Beijing was really an impressive person. She could order the director around with just one sentence.
The director of the Health Department was on the same level as Commissioner Lu of the Cai Family in Qingfeng District.
"Aiya, Weihong, I didn't expect you to have such a way. This…I'm really grateful…"
Zhu Jianguo rubbed his hands as if he liked something. Although he was usually awe-inspiring in the agricultural school, his temper had been worn down by his daughter's evaluation of professional titles. Seeing that victory was in sight, he could not help but be overjoyed.
"Principal, you don't have to be so polite. You care so much about me, and it just so happens that I have such connections.”
Liu Weihong said with a smile.
"Alright, alright. I'll go and tell Yuxia to rest assured…Did you just get off the train? You've worked hard. Let's rest for a while. Later, we'll go for a meal and have a good drink. Let's have fun!”
Principal Zhu said.
"Alright, I'll follow the leader's arrangements.”
Principal Zhu went over happily.
Liu Weihong thought that it was not far from dinner time, and his plan to visit his classmates had to be changed at the last minute. He simply leaned on the bed and opened the book that he carried with him.
This book was given to him by the police. It was a Hong Kong edition, with traditional characters arranged vertically. According to her, her old man, Yun Hanmin, often read this book at home. It recorded the events of Hu Linyi, one of the four famous officials of the late Qing Dynasty, when he was governor of Hubei.
Wang Shiduo, the author of Hu Wenzhong's Duke Fu E, was Hu Linyi's aide. He had followed Hu Linyi for a long time and admired Hu Linyi's methods of being an official and governing the province.
Liu Weihong could roughly guess why Yun Hanmin was reading this book. Yun Hanmin worked in a national ministry, and his rank was the same as Liu Chengsheng's, a vice minister. Before the political storm broke out, it was rumored that he might be released and take up the position of governor of a certain province. Understanding Hu Linyi's methods of governing the region was also a kind of reference.
Hu Linyi was the governor of Hubei. He managed the province well and became the most determined rear of the Xiang army. Even Zeng Guofan admired him very much. It was said that when he was the governor of the two rivers, he often used Hu Linyi's methods to govern the local areas.
Hu Linyi's handling of the relationship with the Governor of Huguang was also a stroke of genius, and it was very meaningful to learn from. Hu Linyi could be said to be a master of the Qing Dynasty's official rules.
Unfortunately, with the sudden change in the situation, it was difficult for Yun Hanmin to protect himself. His wish to become the governor was completely dashed.
This was how it was in officialdom. Some people were happy, while others were disappointed. As the saying went," Some are happy, while others are sad."
Liu Weihong was watching with great interest. He naturally did not expect Principal Zhu to be in a different situation.
"Dad, is that true? Was Liu Weihong that capable?”
After listening to Principal Zhu's words, Zhu Yuxia was skeptical. Looking at her expression, it was mostly disbelief. Liu Weihong was indeed a little young, and he did not have the name " Liu family's grandson " engraved on his forehead. It was no wonder that Zhu Yuxia did not believe him.
"Heh, I'm not sure what kind of person his Auntie Xiao is, but the phone call with Chief Liao shouldn't be fake. This thing had to be real. He can't coax me."
Zhu Jianguo felt a headache from his daughter's attitude. Even if Liu Weihong was not loved by everyone, he was at least a handsome man. Why was his daughter so prejudiced against him? Liu Weihong didn't do anything out of line. All he did was pass her a cigarette.
As for this!
"Dad, you have to ask clearly. Don't be fooled. If you go to the Health Department tomorrow and can't even enter the director's office, where will you put your old face?”
Zhu Yuxia said calmly.
"How could this be? Yuxia, why are you so against Xiao Liu? Did he offend you?"
"Tsk!"
Zhu Yuxia did not answer this question at all.
Zhu Jianguo had always spoiled his daughter, so he couldn't really criticize her. Fortunately, Liu Weihong was her subordinate and she did not intend to recruit him as her son-in-law. Zhu Yuxia had her own opinions about him. They wouldn't have many chances to meet in the future.
However, Zhu Yuxia's words made Zhu Jianguo's heart skip a beat. That's right, what if Liu Weihong doesn't know the severity of the situation and makes a promise randomly? What if he puts on a show to brush me off? Subconsciously, Zhu Jianguo felt that it was too much of a joke for Liu Weihong to solve such a big problem with just a phone call.
Often, things that were too easy to do were not reliable.
"Then, I'll ask him again…"
"You'd better ask again. We've lost enough face these past few days.”Zhu Yuxia said coldly and added,"If he really has such a relationship, he might as well go to Chief Liao's house tonight.”
When Zhu Jianguo heard this, he felt that it made sense. After all, he was asking for help. If he could visit Director Liao's house and give him some gifts, it would be in line with the rules and he would be more confident. It seemed that his daughter was only cold on the outside, but on the inside, she was definitely not otherworldly. She knew very well about the means of inviting gifts.
Zhu Jianguo went to Liu Weihong's room, but he didn't know how to start. She had been helping him so hard, but he was always being paranoid. It was not good. If he really made Liu Weihong unhappy, it would not be easy.
Liu Weihong had also guessed Zhu Jianguo's intention. He was naturally a little unhappy, but he did not show it on his face. He still politely gave Zhu Jianguo his seat and tea.
"Weihong, look. This university student is really different. He never forgets to look at it…"
Zhu Jianguo tried to find a conversation and praised Liu Weihong with a smile.
However, at the end of the 1980s, college students were still more popular, unlike those who ran around everywhere later.
Liu Weihong smiled and replied," I have nothing to do anyway. I'll just take a look and kill some time."”
"Yes, yes, yes. Young people should watch and learn more. If the teachers in our agricultural school were as eager to learn and strive for progress as you, it would be easy for me to sit up as the principal. If you weren't so young, I would have sent you to the Teaching Department.”
Zhu Jianguo made a wish.
Although the treatment of the agricultural school was average, it was really a county-level position. The director of the teaching department was a section-level cadre. No matter how much Zhu Jianguo thought of Liu Weihong, he couldn't just announce this appointment so casually. Otherwise, the agricultural school would be in chaos, and there would be countless complaints.
However, since the leader had said so, even if it was an empty promise, the subordinate should also express his gratitude.
"Principal, you're making me feel embarrassed." Liu Weihong smiled. I'm still far from it."
"Sigh, don't belittle yourself. Young man, it's good to be humble, but being overly humble is equivalent to being arrogant…"
Zhu Jianguo said with a laugh. Just as Zhu Jianguo was about to beat around the bush and confirm the news, there was suddenly a knock on the door.
"Who is it?"
Liu Weihong asked loudly as he got up to open the door.
The door opened, and a middle-aged man in his forties stood outside. He had a slouched back hair, a white short-sleeved shirt, black suit pants, and shiny black leather shoes. He had a stern expression. There was also a young man in his thirties following beside him.
"I'm Liao Zhengsheng from the Provincial Health Department. May I know which one of you is Comrade Liu Weihong?”
The middle-aged man asked with a smile. His tone was very friendly and even revealed a hint of caution.
When Liu Weihong heard the voice, he knew that it was Bureau Chief Liao. He immediately stepped forward and stretched out his hand. He smiled and said,"Hello, Director Liao, I am Liu Weihong!”
As soon as Liu Weihong opened his mouth, Bureau Chief Liao recognized his voice. His face was filled with smiles as he reached out to hold Liu Weihong's hand tightly. He said repeatedly,"Hello, Comrade Liu. I didn't expect you to be so young and in the prime of your life. Indeed, heroes are born from young people since ancient times, haha…"
"No, no, Director Liao, you flatter me. I don't deserve it!”
At this moment, Zhu Jianguo was dumbfounded.
They didn't expect Chief Liao to be even more impatient than them. He couldn't wait until tomorrow and had already rushed over personally.
Could it be that Liu Weihong was hiding his background? What an amazing person!
