officialdom

At that time in 03, reception work was the top priority of every unit. Some leaders even said that reception was the primary productive force. Zheng Fei's negligence was unforgivable.

Chen Li immediately became angry, Tong Yun also looked very ugly, and Zheng Fei was in an embarrassing and passive situation.

Gao Yi pretended not to see their expressions and stared at Cao Rui:

"Cao Rui, you are the office director! Don't you want to express your opinion?"

Cao Rui seemed to be an actor at first glance, and Chen Li suddenly asked Zheng Fei about dinner, just to create an occasion where Zheng Fei would not do his job well and would be blackmailed by him.

Tong Yun was very cooperative, and the first and second leaders had an unprecedented tacit understanding. He was dissatisfied with Zheng Fei, the deputy director in charge of reception. This meant a gesture, which was made for Gao Yi to see.

Gao Yi said lightly and ordered Cao Rui's general. How should Cao Rui respond?

Gao Yi had foreshadowed it before, saying that bacon is fragrant and turtle stewed with bacon is a unique dish. There is only one place in Yongping where this dish is unique, and that is the 'turtle village' on He Street.

Cao Rui immediately said, how about arranging to eat at the "Turtle Fish Village" on He Street?

Gao Yi said nothing, Chen Li and Tong Yun looked at each other, and Tong Yun said:

"Deputy Director Zheng, go make arrangements!"

Zheng Fei went to arrange the meal. How could he arrange it? Is that an ordinary restaurant in Turtle Village? This is the most upscale and popular place in Yongping right now. There are only four best private rooms and only about ten ordinary private rooms.

Many units in the county choose this place for receptions. It has a good reputation and is grand. It is generally difficult to book a seat two days in advance.

It's already dinner time. How can I make a last-minute reservation at this time?

Zheng Fei made several calls in a row and used all his connections to no avail! The people who go to Turtle Village to eat are all rich or noble people. Everyone wants to show off their appearance. At this time, relationships are not easy to work at all. They are all respectable people. Who can the merchants offend?

Zheng Fei couldn't figure it out, so he gave feedback to Chen Li and Tong Yun. They were also annoyed, especially Tong Yun, who couldn't figure it out even after calling him.

Tong Yun had no choice but to call Cao Rui over and asked:

"Cao Rui, Cao Rui, how do you think about doing things? If you propose to go to Turtle Village at this time, isn't this a problem?"

Cao Rui smiled bitterly, said what Gao Yi had just said, and said:

“Bureau Chen, Secretary Tong, if this is really a difficult problem, it’s the minister’s fault!”

Chen Li and Tong Yun's expressions immediately became bright, while Zheng Fei let out a long sigh.

He said a little annoyed:

"What the hell, why can a restaurant be so awesome? Later we will pick out some negative news and expose it to them..."

"Play the piano randomly!" Chen Li said angrily:

"Zheng Fei, in the future, you must fully delegate power to Cao Rui for all reception arrangements! You have to keep everything in your own hands, and you will lose control at the critical moment!"

Cao Rui admired Chen Li from the sidelines and fell into admiration. This old thing has too many tricks.

With just one word, Zheng Fei lost the chance to resist, and at the same time he kicked the ball in front of Cao Rui.

A watchful attitude gives Cao Rui full power. Should Cao Rui behave at this time?

The private room in Turtle Village cannot be booked, Minister Gao is unhappy, and Chen Li loses face. Should Cao Rui share the worry now?

"I'll make a call!" Cao Rui was already forced into a corner.

A matter of booking a private room, this was a question asked by Gao Yi. At first, Cao Rui thought that Gao Yi was testing the Bureau of Radio, Film and Television, but now he felt that he was still testing himself.

Cao Rui looked back and thought about that day at the county committee. Gao Yi asked him to stand in the yard of the county committee and shout "Zhang Shenyang is an old antique" and use various words to stimulate him. In fact, it was also a test question.

Gao Yi gave Cao Rui three comments, "ambition, talent, and rationality." These three did not come randomly. Cao Rui's ambition was reflected in his initiative to find Gao Yi, which was very explicit.

What could make Cao Rui shed all his dignity and recommend himself to Gao Yi Maosui? Could it be that he coveted Minister Gao's beauty? That’s ridiculous!

Cao Rui's talent has been fully demonstrated in Song Chunbo's propaganda. The only rational manifestation is that Cao Rui was not deceived by Gao Yi that day, and he did not make any extraordinary move.

It's just that what Tong Yun of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau can't handle, what Zheng Fei can't handle, how can Cao Rui handle it?

He called Zhou Pei, the political propaganda unit of the Public Security Bureau. Zhou Pei had always wanted to get to know Hu Li through Cao Rui and establish a connection with the provincial official media. To this end, he had given Cao Rui several hints and offered a lot of leverage.

Cao Rui has never expressed his position. At this moment, he didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point with Zhou Pei.

Cao Rui asked for a large private room in Turtle Village, He Street tonight. What Zhou Pei had thought about before would come true. Cao Rui said:

"I know Turtle Village is a magical place, and it is said that no relationship can work! But I know Chief Zhou definitely has a way! Time is running out, and I'm waiting for Chief Zhou to give me good news!"

Zhou Peidao:

"Cao Rui, you just like to give me problems. Can I solve the problems that even county leaders have encountered?"

Zhou Pei said he couldn't figure it out, but his attitude was very real. He asked Cao Rui to wait first, and he immediately moved away.

Only ten minutes later, Zhou Pei called Cao Rui back:

"Cao Rui, the private room 'Fa Cai' has been arranged. I will give you a number and you can contact us immediately to place an order!"

Cao Rui really breathed a sigh of relief when he received the news.

His judgment was correct. The "turtle village" could deny face to many people, but Song Chunbo was definitely an exception.

As long as someone is open to do business, who dares to offend the police?

At that time, social rules were relatively chaotic, and the public security bureau could make the final decision in all chaos. Therefore, no matter how difficult it was to book a room in the "turtle village", Song Chunbo could definitely get a private room if he called.

The matter was settled like this. Instead of looking for Song Chunbo, Cao Rui turned around and looked for Zhou Pei.

Song Chunbo's favor was too expensive. Cao Rui would rather give up his bargaining chip to exchange it with Zhou Pei. In other words, Cao Rui has not gotten along yet, and it is difficult to do anything big.

Private rooms were arranged, but there were few people eating because Xiong Fei, the deputy director of the Propaganda Department, came over and told Chen Li that the director didn't like the excitement.

As a result, Chen Li and Tong Yun accompanied Gao Yi to dinner, Minister Xiong Fei participated, and Cao Rui had to perform the duties of the office director. He must be in the "turtle village" and arrive in advance to take charge of the arrangements.

He took a taxi to Turtle Village, but couldn't find a private room called "Facai". He asked the waiter, and a little girl took him to the back of Turtle Village. He walked through a verandah and went out the back door. Then he turned a corner and Cao Rui found this place. There is actually a different world.

The first thing that catches the eye is a clear water pond. There are weeping willows beside the pond, and there is an open-air octagonal pavilion. The scenery is pleasant.

There is a house next to the pond. It is a three-story building. The entrance is surrounded by a wall and has a fence gate.

The fence door was opened, and Cao Rui saw a slim woman standing in the center of the yard.
