The Era of Hard Work

In the afternoon, Lv Dong accompanied Song Na to the Qingzhao County Party Committee. He originally thought that he could come out earlier and take a look at the decoration of the Quarry Villa. He did not expect to meet with a multi-department joint meeting and invite Shaolin Temple to come over. Within the discussion scope of the meeting, the head of the Propaganda Department simply invited Lu Dong and Song Na to directly attend the meeting.

The county government, Public Security Bureau, Cultural Tourism Bureau, Propaganda Department, United Front Work Department and other units participated in the meeting, mainly to coordinate the upcoming Qingzhao Cultural Tourism Festival.

There were many acquaintances at the meeting, such as Yuan Jing, and Liu Linlin who spoke on behalf of the Bureau of Culture and Tourism.

The performance of Shaolin Kungfu monks was directly arranged into the opening ceremony.

As for Lujia Village, they can negotiate with Shaolin Temple on their own.

The meeting lasted for more than two hours, and it was almost time to get off work at the end. Lu Dong and Song Na were about to leave. Before they left the conference building, Yuan Jing and Liu Linlin came over.

"You two are leaving like this?" Yuan Jing got closer to Lu Dong and Song Na because of Li Wenyue's relationship: "It's hard to come to the county, so I can't leave on an empty stomach."

Liu Linlin's eyes quickly swept across Song Na. Compared with when she first met, Song Na was in better shape and seemed to be more beautiful.

Mainly there is a temperament, the kind that can't be said.

Song Na was always paying attention to Liu Linlin, and when she saw her turn her gaze, she smiled and nodded at her.

An old classmate is also considered familiar.

At this time, Lu Dong asked Yuan Jing: "What? You plan to treat me."

Yuan Jing said: "No problem! I'll treat you tonight! It's not easy for us classmates to get together." She turned to look at Liu Linlin: "You don't work overtime today, do you?"

Liu Linlin said softly, "No overtime."

Song Na smiled: "Since Yuan Jing wants to treat guests, let's not be polite to her."

Yuan Jing looked at her watch: "There are still more than ten minutes to get off work. If you have nothing to do, go to Xinmin Hotel first. Do you know the location? East Railway North Road, the new commercial front building of the Family Planning Bureau."

Lu Dong nodded: "You don't need to go there first, Song Na and I will wait here for a while, and we will leave together after get off work."

"Alright." Yuan Jing took out her mobile phone: "I'll call Wen Yue and Zou Kai and ask them to come too."

She asked Liu Linlin, "Is there anyone calling from your side?"

Liu Linlin and Yuan Jing are classmates in their third year of high school. After graduation, they work in government units that are very close to each other. In a small place like a county town, there are so many prerequisites, so their social circles will relatively overlap.

She said, "Don't forget to call me Zhou Shanshan."

Yuan Jing looked at Lu Dong: "Boss, this is an employee under your command. Will you deduct money when you come to drink at night?"

Lu Dong said: "It seems that you are doing well in the office, and you speak in a way."

Yuan Jing called Zhou Shanshan again.

After Yuan Jing got off work, the few of them went to Railway North Road together.

Yuan Jing drove Liu Linlin in her newly purchased Bora last year. Zou Kai and Zhou Shanshan drove there quickly, and Li Wenyue was the last to come.

Xinmin Hotel is a brand-new door house. After the Family Planning Bureau moved here, several new buildings were built, and the one near the main road was simply rented out as a commercial store.

Yuan Jing got acquainted with the boss and asked for the quietest large private room in the south.

The boss runs a restaurant, and he recognized Lu Dong as soon as he saw him, and wanted to move forward, but Yuan Jing persuaded him: "Cousin, these are my classmates, so don't make trouble."

"Okay, okay, I won't go over to toast." The boss winked: "Quiet, you go up, don't worry about the food and wine."

Yuan Jing went upstairs and entered the private room. She originally wanted to sit by the door, but asked Zhou Shanshan to drag her to the main seat: "This is impossible, you have to do it here."

Li Wenyue helped pour the water.

Yuan Jing said: "It's not my turn to sit here, there are leaders, the richest men and richest women with our green photos..."

Song Na just laughed: "This is not a dinner party at your unit, we old classmates, how can we be so particular about it."

Li Wenyue poured tea next to each other, and said, "Just sit here and wait for a while to pay."

An old classmate who met Yu Weimo. These years, they often get together, and they don't have so much politeness.

Sitting next to Song Na, Lu Dong looked up and saw the window to the south. Looking past the window and the railway, he could see brand-new residential quarters to the south of the railway.

"Three or four years ago, this was the southern edge of Qingzhao County. Conventionally, it can be said to be the southern outer ring of Qingzhao County." He looked at the south and said, "Now the county is expanding really fast, and the south has two Kilometers away."

Zou Kai and Zhou Shanshan bought a house in the south: "Who said no, who would want to buy a house in the south at that time? Once the railway comes out, it is called a rural area. Now the county and the promotion of house sales, the south is called a rich area, and the north is a city. Shanty town."

Zhou Shanshan works in the financial department of Lu's Catering, and she often deals with real estate companies: "The house sellers try their best to promote how good the real estate is, and now the local government is also cooperating. For example, in the south, if there is no county, Ginza will be in the south. Settle down, open Ginza shopping malls, can the houses in these communities be sold at a higher price?"

Lu Dong answered, "We, Qingzhao, have done a lot of work to get Ginzuo to settle there."

Li Wenyue put down his teacup: "The effect is very obvious. Once the Ginza was signed and finalized, and the elementary and junior high schools in the south were integrated, the surrounding land prices tripled."

Yuan Jing told the truth: "The pressure on financial borrowing is so great. In the past two years, Qingzhao has been engaged in construction. If it is not possible to sell the land to support it, it will be difficult for people who eat from the government to pay their full wages."

Zou Kai, who works as a teacher in No. 1 Middle School, has the right to speak: "It is only in the past two years that the teacher's salary can be fully paid."

A waiter knocked on the door, and the dishes began to be served one after another, and everyone chatted while eating.

Yuan Jing sat at the main seat and brought up the topic: "If you want me to say, even the Cultural Tourism Bureau, which the county attaches great importance to, still makes the financial cards stick to it."

Seeing that Liu Linlin seldom spoke, Yuan Jing specifically asked, "Linlin, is this the case on your side?"

Liu Linlin smiled quietly: "Financial approval is very strict."

Zhou Shanshan pulled him, "I started talking nonsense before I drank too much."

Zou Kai smiled embarrassedly.

Song Na quietly changed the subject: "Yuan Jing, when will you be promoted?"

"I don't want to be promoted, I just want to be stable, I'm just a woman, and I don't want to make a lot of progress in this industry." Yuan Jing said from the bottom of her heart: "Don't think I'm easy to get along in the unit, On the one hand, there is the relationship between my dad and Wenyue here, on the other hand, I don’t fight or snatch, and I don’t drill up, the big guys don’t think I’m a competitor.”

She looked at Liu Linlin: "Linlin must be clear about this. I'm still a small staff member with a crew cut, and Linlin is now the leader."

Liu Linlin was slightly taken aback, and said, "Jingjing, stop joking, what kind of leader am I?"

Yuan Jing said: "Among our classmates who eat public meals, you are the one with the highest position. You are also a selected student of the Provincial Organization Department. You have a bright future. You might be a female mayor someday."

Liu Linlin was helpless: "You just make fun of me."

Song Na put down her chopsticks and asked suddenly: "Linlin, your personnel relationship is in the Provincial Organization Department, do you have to transfer back after a while?"

Liu Linlin glanced at Song Na, thought for a while, and said something like a civil servant: "Job transfers must be subject to organizational arrangements."

Song Na responded, "That's it."

Yuan Jing answered in time: "It's not good to eat public meals, there's nothing else to do."

Li Wenyue said: "Don't be dissatisfied, this is your job."

"Don't say that, with whom to compare your score." Zou Kai disagreed: "This iron rice bowl is not good. It is said that the monthly drought and flood guarantees the harvest, that is, the drought and flood guarantees the harvest. Let alone compare with Wen Yue, Lu Dong and Song Na. Not even Shanshan."

He is more cheerful and doesn't mind talking about his own affairs: "Let's talk about my family buying a house. If it wasn't for Shanshan's high income, how could he buy it within a year of graduation?"

Having said that, Zou Kai toasted Lu Dong: "I won't say anything else, everything is in the wine."

Lu Dong smiled and said, "Let's not talk about our own family."

He was originally a trustworthy classmate and a top student who graduated from the University of Finance and Economics. After more than a year of inspection and training, Lu Dong also wanted to use Zhou Shanshan again.

Zou Kai put down his wine glass and said, "If I had known, I wouldn't be a teacher."

Yuan Jing interjected: "You can pull you down. At that time Shanshan asked you to come out, it was you who insisted on being a teacher."

Song Na continued: "People in this industry are always better than others. Those who work in private enterprises, I don't know how envious you are. You may not be able to see it now. When you really retire, the gap will be big."

In the past two years, there have been retired teachers and civil servants, and their income after retirement is higher than when they were working.

How do the employees in the company compare?

Those present are no longer simple students in the ivory tower. After graduation, they have also seen the real side of society and know that what Song Na said is true.

Zou Kai laughed: "Everyone is like this. A mountain looks like a mountain."

Lu Dong picked up the cup: "Don't talk about it, come on! Let's go together, you can drink as you like."

No matter Yuan Jing and Li Wenyue, or Lu Dong and Song Na, there are certain characteristics of the new generation, they will not try hard to persuade people to drink, and they will not think that only when people are drunk is the hospitality.

The old classmates are still a group with relatively good relations, so just do whatever you want.

If there is a bluffing and persuading to drink, it is not a man who does not give face, but it will destroy the atmosphere and affect the relationship between them.

After a meal was close to nine o'clock, they dispersed separately.

Before leaving, Song Na asked Yuan Jing: "When are you going to get the marriage certificate? Lu Dong and I plan to go on May 1st, why don't we go together?"

Yuan Jing smiled and said, "We plan to go on July 7th, so we won't be with you."
