Chapter 382 Good things are coming

When I woke up in the morning, I heard the birds singing outside the window and breathed in the fresh autumn air. Xia Xiang suddenly felt refreshed.

"Get up, lazy!"

Cao Shuli knocked on the door outside.

Xia Xiang was lazy and opened the door, but as soon as he opened it, Cao Shuyan screamed: "What an ugly! A big gangster!"

Then he covered his face and blushed and went downstairs.

Xia Xiang looked down at some restless place, shook his head helplessly and smiled. Seeing the little girl Anna's colorful back and light and soft waist, she couldn't help but feel a ruthless heart: Anyway, I'm about to get married, so I'll spare you a few days first. After getting married, let's see how I deal with you, and see if you dare to run away!

Xia Xiang finally experienced the comfort of being in a light body without officials. Today is his third day to rest at home. He said he was resting, but in fact he was busy decorating a new house, writing invitations, buying furniture, etc.

Marriage is a major event in life, and it is necessary to experience everything you need to do is a trivial matter. The parents asked to come over to help, but Xia Xiang didn't let it go. The old man is old and is not familiar with the place in Yan City, so he doesn't have to work hard.

Uncle Cao couldn't come back in Baoshi again, but it was better that the parents of both parties could have arranged the marriages, but Xia Xiang married Cao Shuyan, but it became a busy time for the two of them.

Fortunately, Xia Xiang and Cao Shugui are becoming more and more capable now, especially Cao Shugui, who is too capable than Xia Xiang imagined, and is not as charming as the mayor's daughter. Yes, now the secretary is the daughter of the secretary. She doesn't want others to help. From the layout of the new house, to the selection of furniture, to the selection of wedding dresses, she does everything herself, and does not complain or be tired, and insists on cooking for Xia Xiang every day, which is called getting into the state in advance.

Xia Xiang was too lazy to care about her. She didn't want to make it, so she just ate it outside. If she wanted to make it, she would go.

Sun Xianwei also said that he would give him a set of furniture directly, so he would buy it himself. Feng Xuguang also proposed to give Xia Xiang a good set of mahogany furniture, but Xia Xiang didn't even want it. The home is a very private place. Since the little girl likes to arrange it herself, she will do it. She must make the hostess happy.

The new house was arranged in the residential building of the municipal government assigned by Xia Xiang. The room was not big, but it was very warm and comfortable with the careful arrangement of the little girl. Xia Xiang followed Cao Shuyan every day and became a hand-off manager. He was originally a coolie who was responsible for carrying bags and things, but because of the blue socks, Fangge took the opportunity to follow him without leaving any steps, and took the initiative to undertake all kinds of hard work and tiring work, which directly liberated Xia Xiang.

Xia Xiang was also happy and took the opportunity to teach Fangge some ways to please girls, making Fangge so happy that he couldn't help but feel happy.

Originally, Fang Jinjiang wanted to put Fang Ge in An County and follow Xia Xiang, but the situation suddenly changed. Xia Xiang was transferred to the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee. Fang Ge was temporarily staying in Yan City, and it was estimated that he would stay in the Municipal Party Committee for a while. His work was also idle. After he no longer served as Li Dingshan's secretary, his relationship was temporarily closed in the Secretariat of the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee. No one usually arranged specific work for him. Xia wanted to get married and had Blue Socks there, which gave him enough reason to be a young follower every day.

Xia Xiang's new house is mainly fresh and elegant tones, and the furniture is also bright in color. Fortunately, Sun Xianwei and Feng Xuguang were not allowed to send it. With the eyes of both of them, the furniture they sent was probably all the styles that middle-aged and elderly people liked. However, when Sun Xianwei and Feng Xuguang saw that Xia wanted to accept their gifts, they were a little depressed, so they wanted to give a red envelope of 88,000, but Xia Xiang refused.

Xia Xiang was not short of money. If you really count it, you might be richer than the two of them together. He also felt that everyone was a good friend and could receive gifts, but it would be too dissatisfaction if they collected money. In the end, Sun Xianwei and Feng Xuguang did not discuss it, but they gave a pair of famous watches together, which meant to express their feelings.

Xia Xiang saw that it was Rolex, and at least 30,000 or 40,000 yuan. He also knew what the two were thinking. If they didn't accept it, they would have to accept it. Fortunately, he knew that the friendship between him and Sun Xianwei and Feng Xuguang had never been suspected of trading power and money. He had always been a business cooperation and heart-to-heart talk. A pair of watches was a normal exchange between friends.

After getting two pairs at once, Xia Xiang planned to give one of them to Xia An as a wedding gift.

Li Hongjiang also has gifts.

Li Hongjiang didn't look at the fact that people were careless and thoughtful. When I gave Xia, I thought of a piece of land in the suburbs of Yan City. It was not big, and it was just the purpose of building a private villa. Xia Xiangya refused, and Li Hongjiang became anxious: "I know that others must have gifts, but I dare not give money, for fear that you would scold me. You have nothing else, you have houses and cars, and I am afraid that you will be beaten by your sister-in-law. After thinking about it, I would still give a piece of land, but I really want to do it. If you don't accept it, it means you don't accept my affection and have a long relationship with me. The land was not bought, but a distant relative of mine went to do business in another place. It was useless to keep it, so I handed it over to me."

Xia thought about it and smiled: "You gave me the land, it was obvious that you wanted me to spend money to build a villa so that everyone could go to party in the future. Isn't it? It seems that I got cheap, but I was actually suffering. How much does it cost to build a villa? You are very smart in your plan."

Li Hongjiang knew that Xia wanted to accept it, so he laughed.

Xia Xiang transferred the land to Xiao Wu and asked him to build a farmhouse without luxury, practicality and comfort. Xia Xiang meant that it could be used as a place for friends to gather in the future, because in the future, the farmhouse in Daxing in Yan City was built in large quantities in the surrounding suburbs almost overnight, making it a good place for leisure gatherings for Yan City people.

Marriage is not as good as engagement. Northerners still value the marriage ceremony the most, so as soon as the news of Xia Xiang getting married came out, friends from all sides called to congratulate him. If the relationship is good, they directly asked where to hold the ceremony, which means that he would come to visit him. If the relationship is bad or the qualification is not enough, they would implicitly ask if it is convenient and add an extra chair to join in the fun. Xia Xiang makes friends, and he agrees one by one.

The wedding was still set at the Yanjing Hotel, which means good things are in pairs. Qi Donglai also officially announced that on the day when Xia Xiang got married, the Yanjing Hotel was closed as a whole, just to hold a grand wedding banquet!

Qi Yanan volunteered to take charge of all matters of Xia Xiang’s wedding banquet in person.

Shen Lichun, Chu Zigao, Wang Linjie and others naturally had gifts, and whether they were valuable or not was all about it. But the few people were obviously not stingy, so Xia Xiang kept them all in his heart. What he didn't expect was that his marriage actually alarmed Cheng Dacai, who personally entrusted Shen Lichun to congratulate him and also gave him a gift.

Xia Xiang opened the gift and laughed silently. It turned out to be a project map of Dacai Group across the country. Cheng Dacai is really an extremely omnipotent businessman. He gave him a map of Dacai Group, which means that he understood Cheng Dacai's expansion intention and implicitly reminded him that he would give advice to Dacai Group at the right time.

I believe that the success of Anxian Resort has made Cheng Da look at him more highly.

Chen Lichun explained: "This map is Cheng Zong's favorite one, not only because it is Cheng Zong's hard work, but also because Cheng Zong's personal markings. Moreover, this map is a golden silk map, and the scrolls are all made of jade, which are of great value."

Xia Xiang actually saw the uniqueness of the map. After hearing Chen Lichun's statement, he also felt Cheng Dacai's trust, so he let Chen Lichun convey his gratitude to Cheng Zheng.

Mr. Gao and Mr. Shi both gave him gifts. Mr. Gao gave him a set of "Zizhi Tongjian", while Mr. Shi gave him "Twenty-Four Histories". The two elders gave him historical books at the same time, which shows that they all had some hope for him.

After the business community, friends in the officialdom began to give gifts to each other with polite gifts.

What surprised Xia Xiang was that the first person in Anxian to give him a gift was Zhang Jian.

Zhang Jian gave a pen - Parker's golden pen. Xia wanted to understand Zhang Jian's thoughts. Zhang Jian, under his recommendation, later contacted Hu Zengzhou, quickly expressed his grip on Mayor Hu. Hu Zengzhou is currently no one in Yan City, and he also knows Zhang Jian's personality and personality. Xia Xiang also said that it was a good match. After observing for a while, he felt that Zhang Jian was indeed reliable, so he accepted Zhang Jian.

Zhang Jian is extremely grateful to Xia Xiang for this.

Qiu Xufeng and Mei Xiaolin both said that Qiu Xufeng also made a set of wire-bound books, which was "Siku Quanshu", which was antique and very precious. Mei Xiaolin's gift was a bit weird. It was a newest mobile phone, a China Unicom's CDMA mobile phone with integrated phone numbers. The phone number is there.

Xia Xiang laughs, meaning that she should not disconnect from the contact. As long as she does not throw away the phone and as long as she pays the phone fee, there will always be a way to keep the contact between her and Xia Xiang.

Others also expressed more or less that what surprised Xia Xiang was that Fang Yuhui also gave him a gift, and the gift was also expensive, so he gave him a crystal temple with unique ideas.

It is a natural titanium crystal, very beautiful. It has a stunning beauty on the desk. Xia thought about it, was Fang Yuhui giving him the crystal to him to show his innocence?

Subsequently, Li Dingshan, Gao Hai, Fang Jinjiang, and Qin Tuofu also delivered gifts. Immediately, Chen Feng and Wang Pengfei's gifts were also delivered in turn. Chen Feng's gift was a screen, and the portraits of the first-rank official officials from all dynasties were painted, with profound meaning. Wang Pengfei's most casual way was to send a rattan chair. Xia Xiang could tell at a glance that it was a good rattan chair native to the south. It was absolutely impossible to buy in Yan City, and Secretary Wang was considerate.

Mayor Hu's gift was not the least unexpected to Xia Xiang. It was a pair of words with the letter: "Harmony of the zither", but what surprised him slightly was that the signature was openly engraved with Hu Zengzhou's name.

Mayor Hu finally agreed to sign his name. Xia Xiang was overjoyed. He thought that this gift was an unexpected gain and proved Mayor Hu's true thoughts about him no longer avoiding suspicion and not being an outsider.

Finally, Gao Jinzhou, Song Dynasty Du and Ma Wanzheng also asked someone to send gifts. Of course, the gift was either a book or a brush, with a less gift and a strong friendship. As provincial leaders, they just had the intention. Even if they just called, Xia Xiang was grateful.

Ma Wanzheng gave a box of good tea, while Song Chaodu gave a set of four treasures of the study.

Having said that, everyone was different. Many people thought that Secretary Cao must be just doing it. Which official’s daughter did not accept gifts when he got married or his son got married? If he really didn’t accept gifts, could he return the money after taking the money?

On the 27th, the Cao family and the Xia family sat together to discuss the details of the wedding. After almost the discussion was made, Xia Xiang followed Cao Yongguo into the study.

Xia thought Uncle Cao would teach a few words earnestly, but Uncle Cao just smiled and said helplessly: "There must be many people who give gifts, but it is not good to accept them, and they are suspected of giving gifts in disguise. It is not good not to accept them. In the officialdom, we can't deny everyone's face in person. Xiao Xia, what should you do?"

Xia Xiang laughed: "Uncle Cao doesn't have to worry. I have already thought of a countermeasure to ensure that I will not accept gifts and not embarrass everyone."

Xia Xiang still agrees with Uncle Cao's practice of not wanting to receive gifts. Officials cannot be treated as small. Although it is said that collecting gifts can make a small profit, not to mention anything else, Xia Xiang's own friend in the business world. If he does not refuse, he can even collect hundreds of thousands or even millions of gifts.

Even if everyone agrees with this gray income, Xia Xiang doesn't want to collect it. He has little desire for money, because he never lacks money now. If you want money, you can make money from the mall. Now, Cao Shugui's design company has a rough estimate that it is not a problem to earn a hundred thousand a year.

If Xia Xiangxiang makes money by himself and also has a designer title, he can guarantee that he can easily get one million yuan a year. But now that others are in the officialdom, they have to avoid making a real population.

So Xia Xiang thought of the key point of Uncle Cao, the behavior of not accepting gifts, and he also looked up to him. Uncle Cao cannot be said to be a clean official with clear officials, but the equipment in the Cao family and his understanding of the Cao family in recent years are just a well-off family that is not as good as the best, which means that Uncle Cao is not a greedy person.

"Oh?" Uncle Cao was very interested, "Let's hear it."

Xia Xiang kept it a secret: "I don't have to worry about Uncle Cao, you'll know at a glance."

Cao Yongguo smiled kindly: "I'm still having sex with me? OK, I won't care."

After sitting down, the two of them started talking about the situation and solutions in the province. Cao Yongguo was so angry that he had asked Lu Yuanyuan for his sudden transfer to the Information Department of the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee. Lu Yuanyuan was helpless and told Cao Yongguo that who would object to the two secretaries, one governor, and the other Minister of Organization. Besides, the objection was ineffective. In addition, Xia Xiang came to the provincial party committee, which was not the same as the provincial party committee, and it was close to everyone, so it might be a good thing.
