"Jiemin, wait for me in the car, and I'll go." When I arrived at the gate of the county transportation bureau, Chen Tiechuan called Cheng Jiemin while getting off the car.

Cheng Jiemin nodded, saw Chen Tiechuan go upstairs, took out a cigarette and threw it to Xiao Hu, and took one of it himself.

"Director Cheng, I am a soldier. As the saying goes, I regret it for three years after being a soldier, but I regret it for a lifetime if I don't join the soldier. I and my comrades are simply loyal. I didn't expect you to be a soldier. I saw what you did today, and I only have one word of conscience in my heart!" Xiao Hu sighed while helping Cheng Jiemin light a cigarette.

Although Cheng Jiemin knew that Xiao Hu's words were somewhat complimentary, he still smiled kindly and said, "If you are in trouble, just forget it. If you know, you will stand by and watch your conscience and can't get through."

"Director Cheng, I feel at ease with your words. Although I, Xiao Hu, is just a driver, is also a straight person. I am quite compatible with your Director Cheng. If you don't dislike me, I am willing to make friends with you!"

Cheng Jiemin became more and more friendly as a secretary. He patted Xiao Hu on the shoulder and said, "Okay, Brother Hu is also a cheerful person. I'll make a promise of you as a friend!"

Xiao Hu was originally nervous, but he understood the distance between him and Cheng Jiemin, but he didn't expect that Cheng Jiemin would give him enough face to be proud. The relationship between the two quickly heated up.

Half an hour passed, and Chen Tiechuan still didn't come out.

"Xiao Hu, I'll go up and take a look."

Cheng Jiemin couldn't wait any longer, so he was planning to take advantage of the lunch break to get the person in charge of the Xinlian Agency contacted by Gao Ziqing and finalize the loan.

The Transportation Bureau is in a first-class overall situation everywhere. Although the four-story office building of the Daoxuan County Transportation Bureau does not look very conspicuous, the decoration inside is unique.

Cheng Jiemin searched around the second floor but did not find Chen Tiechuan. Looking at the people who went downstairs in groups of three or three, Cheng Jiemin ran to the third floor again and saw Chen Tiechuan standing in the corridor smoking constantly.

Before he saw anyone, Cheng Jiemin's first reaction was that Chen Tiechuan was left alone! He walked towards Chen Tiechuan, and it was here that closed room opened. A short and fat man shook his body and walked forward tremblingly, and a man with a leather bag was immediately behind.

"Hello, Chief Niu, you see I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Chen Tiechuan saw the short and fat man coming out, quickly squeezed out the cigarette and chased after him.

Section Chief Niu glanced at Chen Tiechuan and said carelessly: "Well, Xiao Chen, we have already gotten off work. If you have something to do, come again in the afternoon!"

"Secretary Niu, I have been going three times. Look, can you give me some money? If you don't give me some money, I will have to stop work on the construction site!" Chen Tiechuan's voice was filled with a hint of pleading.

Section Chief Niu immediately changed his face and stomped the cigarette hard, and said angrily: "I said Chen Tiechuan, don't be too stubborn to be stubborn? The situation is difficult now. I don't have money here, so don't threaten me with suspension of work. I will tell you that the work cannot be paid when it expires. I want to see how you settle the project payment!"

"Secretary Niu, I... I really can't do anything about it. My requirements are not high. As long as I can hold on for a week, you can let me get through this hurdle." Chen Tiechuan almost pleaded.

Section Chief Niu's face became more serious, and he waved his hand and said, "I don't have time now. You can stop for a few days and come and have a look!"

"Secretary Niu, I..."

Just when Chen Tiechuan was still preparing to beg, the person following Chief Niu had waved: "Hey, brother, Chief Niu hasn't explained it to you clearly? Are you still finished? There is no money in the bureau now, so wait!"

While speaking, the two of them were about to leave. When Chen Tiechuan saw the situation in despair, he immediately became a little anxious. He grabbed Section Chief Niu's hand and asked unwillingly: "Secretary Chief Niu, those who built roads at the same time as me have received the project payment. At the beginning, I signed a contract with the bureau, so you can give me some money first!"

"What did you say? Well, then what do you mean is that I deliberately made things difficult for you? I'll tell you, don't you have a contract? If you are numb, go and sue, I'll wait here!" Section Chief Niu's face changed, and he pointed at Chen Tiechuan with thick fingers, and was angry.

"I said, don't be annoying here, get out of here! The transportation bureau is so big, can you owe you money?" The person who followed Chief Niu pushed Chen Tiechuan as he spoke.

Chen Tiechuan's eyes were red and his fists were clenched tightly. He really wanted to go up and catch the arrogant fat section chief and beat him up, but reason told him that with such an impulse, the consequences would probably be unimaginable.

"Tichuan, Section Chief Niu is busy now. Please pay for the project funds slowly first. Let's go back." Cheng Jiemin walked a few steps to Chen Tiechuan, wanting to pull him away.

Section Chief Niu saw someone coming, his short neck swayed left and right, and pointed at Chen Tiechuan and said, "Boy, the Transportation Bureau is not a place for you to be arrogant. Want money? You can wait!"

While speaking, Chief Niu walked downstairs angrily.

"It's paralyzed, what's the matter!" Chen Tiechuan cursed fiercely.

"Brother, I'm making a joke. The project I'm doing now was obtained through an acquaintance. As soon as the construction started, the acquaintance was transferred away, and the project payment was not redeemed. Later, when I asked, I found out that something was wrong with Section Chief Niu and my acquaintance. He was blatantly bullying people! I thought about everything and gave him money. Every time I was a meat bun to beat a dog, he should collect it, but he just didn't give it to him."

Chen Tiechuan said this and forced a smile: "Forget it, let's not talk about this disappointment, let's go to have a meal."

"Okay, let's have a drink." Cheng Jiemin looked at Chen Tiechuan's bitter smile, a little pity and admiration. He, an old classmate, made a single move, and it was not easy to make a name for himself. He could still be as if nothing had happened at this time, and this state of mind was not something that ordinary people could do.

Before getting on the bus, Cheng Jiemin found a public phone call next to the Transportation Bureau, so he said to Chen Tiechuan: "You get on the bus first, I'll make a call."

Chen Tiechuan nodded and got on the car first. At this time, he was very upset. The reason why he insisted on coming to the Transportation Bureau this time was to ask for some money to welcome Cheng Jiemin. After all, the old classmate came over from afar to give him money. Chen Tiechuan was unforgettable to this friendship. Unexpectedly, Section Chief Niu actually gave him such an ugly look.

Cheng Jiemin called quickly and returned to the car three or four minutes later. At this time, Chen Tiechuan had adjusted his mindset and smiled at Cheng Jiemin and said, "I originally wanted to ask for money to treat you to a good meal, but I didn't expect to be angry. We can only eat this meal. There is an old Niujia Noodle Restaurant in front of me. The beef and mutton are very authentic and taste good. How about we go and try it?"

"Let's leave it next time. I just contacted a friend. He has already arranged it. Let's go to Xiaozhao." Cheng Jiemin said to Xiaohu as he spoke: "Xiaozhao should go south."

"Go to Xiaozhao?" Chen Tiechuan was living in Daoxuan County, so he naturally knew where Xiaozhao was. But for this place, he only heard of its name and did not meet him.

"If you have something to eat, you won't eat it." Cheng Jiemin quipped with a smile.

The county town of Daoxuan County is not big, and it is only three minutes away from the Transportation Bureau to Xiaozhao. When Cheng Jiemin and the others got out of the car, a tall fat man was already waiting at the door and came over from afar and said, "Director Cheng, I regret not having a good drink with you yesterday. I didn't expect you to visit our Daoxuan County today. Secretary Gao went to the city to do business. Now he is rushing here!"

Cheng Jiemin met this person during dinner yesterday, but he only knew that this person's surname was Meng, and he should be a director of the county party committee office. Judging from his attitude of following Gao Ziqing, he should be Secretary Gao's confidant.

"Haha, hello, Director Meng, I'm here without any invitation, I'm here to worry!" Cheng Jiemin shook hands with Director Meng, while pulling Chen Tiechuan and introducing: "Director Meng, this is my friend Chen Tiechuan. Please take care of Director Meng in the future!"

Director Meng actually noticed Chen Tiechuan at the beginning, but he didn't know the origin of this person. However, when Director Cheng got out of the car and opened the door for him, he was still shocked. I guess this guy is also incredible.

At this time, when he heard Cheng Jiemin's introduction, he quickly stretched out his hands enthusiastically and said, "Since Brother Chen is Director Cheng's friend, then I will climb up and be my brother of Lao Meng. Let's go have a few drinks together."

While shook hands with Director Meng, Chen Tiechuan guessed the identity of Director Meng, but he had little contact with Daoxuan County and didn't know who Director Meng was.

After a simple handshake, he found a free time to walk towards the bathroom. For him, it would be fine to follow Cheng Jiemin to have dinner. Now, following Cheng Jiemin’s friends, it would be inappropriate to be so untidy. It was too late to change clothes, so it was okay to tidy up your head and face.

"Okay, Chen Tiechuan, you are actually here. I think you bastard is crazy!" Chen Tiechuan just walked to the bathroom door and walked towards him. Before he could see who it was, he heard the stern curses coming.
