bribe.
These two words can definitely cause huge waves in the building where Zhao Mingxin works.
Qin Zheng was so angry that he slammed the table at Zhao Mingxin and questioned how he managed his subordinates. If a small clerk dared to blatantly accept bribes, he, as the mayor, must be even more greedy.
Qin Zheng's words were very harsh, and the elegant Zhao Mingxin was so angry that he slammed the table at him.
One was a rough farmer who was nearly 1.9 meters tall, and the other was a thin and gentle mayor.
An inexplicable thought popped up in Qin Anan's mind: [If Dad and Mayor Zhao fight, who will win? ]
Feng Jingrou was shocked: Oh, you can’t hit me!
She hurriedly grabbed Qin Zheng's arm.
Qin Zheng also heard his daughter's thoughts and felt very happy when he saw the worried look in his wife's eyes.
He lowered his head, happily leaned close to Feng Jingrou's ear, and whispered, "Wife, are you worried that I'll get hurt? Don't worry, I'm terrifyingly strong."
Feng Jingrou's voice became even quieter: "I'm worried that you might hurt Mayor Zhao."
Qin Zheng: “…”
Feng Jingrou was just an ordinary peasant woman, but she could tell Zhao Mingxin was a good official who truly worked for the people. His daily work schedule was incredibly packed, and if he were injured and hospitalized, who knows how much the city's livelihood would be delayed.
Zhao Shi also hurriedly stopped Zhao Mingxin.
He was also afraid that Qin Zheng would accidentally hurt his father.
Even with Qin Zheng's muscular arms, he might not be able to withstand a punch from Qin Zheng. His father is so old, and his health is not very good.
Zhao Shi intervened, smoothing things over. With just a few words, he made the two men realize they had strayed from the right track. They were supposed to be resolving the issue between the clerk and Wu Chengye, so why had they started a fight?!
Zhao Mingxin's face was solemn. He didn't even bother to eat. He immediately asked his secretary to look for witnesses who had seen the clerk taking bribes. At the same time, he searched the office and found more than one pack of good cigarettes in the clerk's drawer.
The clerk was called to Zhao Mingxin's office as soon as he came back from eating out at Wu Chengye's invitation.
He was quite happy at first, thinking that the mayor called him because he thought highly of him.
There was a director vacancy recently, and he had been eyeing it for a long time, and thought that this time...
Then he saw a family of three sitting side by side on the sofa.
He was completely stunned.
He didn't understand how these country bumpkins got into the mayor's office without going through him. However, no one who could work here was stupid. Seeing Qin Zheng's relaxed and leisurely look, he knew that he had offended someone he shouldn't have offended this time.
I was just about to say something to ease the tension.
The little girl sitting in the middle suddenly raised her finger and pointed at him, then uttered those two words crisply: "Bribery!"
The clerk realized that they had reported him, his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.
Zhao Mingxin was so angry that his face turned blue. He sent all the evidence and witnesses to the disciplinary inspection agency, along with the clerk and Wu Chengye. No matter how they tried to excuse themselves, it was of no avail.
After seeing the two off, Zhao Mingxin instructed his secretary to immediately initiate a disciplinary inspection of all public officials in the city.
"Our motherland is on a very difficult road to revival, and we cannot tolerate these termites gnawing at it!"
He faced the national flag hanging on the wall and remained silent for a long time.
The air pressure in the office is very low.
To ease the atmosphere, Zhao Shi smiled and introduced Feng Jingrou and Qin Anan to Zhao Mingxin, saying that they were the benefactors he had mentioned before. He then took out ten big unity notes from his pocket and returned them to Feng Jingrou.
A drop of water is repaid with a spring of water.
Feng Jingrou was not allowed to refuse, nor was she allowed to ask for less.
Feng Jingrou couldn't persuade him and had to accept it.
Zhao Mingxin had a smile on his face, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
Until Qin Anan ran to him and gently put her little hand into his big hand.
Zhao Mingxin finally put his worries behind him, smiled sincerely, and leaned over to pick up Qin Anan.
"An An, let's go eat, okay?"
"Come, come, come and see what delicious food Auntie has prepared for us?"
Zhao Mingxin held Qin Anan in his arms and sat at the desk, opening the lunch box.
Qin Anan was waiting with great anticipation to enjoy Mayor Zhao's special meal. She thought she could see braised fish, boiled pork, sweet and sour spare ribs... But when she opened the lunch box, there were only noodles inside.
I don’t know if it’s because they were cooked for too long or because they were kept in the lunch box for too long, but the noodles were very soft.
There were some light side dishes in the lunch box, which looked very unappetizing.
Qin Anan: [Um... well, it's hard to comment.]
Zhao Mingxin laughed awkwardly: "Haha, An An wants to eat rotten noodles?"
Qin Anan shook her head like a rattle, as if she had seen a flood or a beast: "No, no!"
Did the mayor's wife come all the way from Jinling just to feed the mayor rotten noodles?!
Qin Anan thought, maybe it was because Mayor Zhao was from Jinling and not used to spicy food. So, the mayor's wife made him lighter dishes?
But then I thought something was not right. The city government could provide food of this quality, so why bother to go through so much trouble to deliver the food in person?
Qin Anan was thinking when Qin Zheng slapped Zhao Mingxin on the back.
"Haha, Lao Zhao, I admit my mistake to you. You are a good official!" He was careless and didn't notice that his slap almost killed the mayor.
Zhao Shi's expression changed obviously. He stepped forward and naturally pushed Qin Zheng's hand away.
Qin Zheng was a bit careless and didn't notice anything wrong. He told Zhao Mingxin that Feng Jingrou wanted to open a garment factory and wanted to go to Shanghai to buy machinery, and asked if he could help.
Zhao Mingxin was delighted to see this happen and immediately called the purchasing manager.
In just ten minutes, the person who would accompany Feng Jingrou to Shanghai to purchase equipment was decided.
After contacting Shanghai by phone, we decided to set off tomorrow.
Seeing Mayor Zhao’s support, Feng Jingrou’s confidence increased.
On the way home, Qin Anan took her parents to the bank, slammed the title deed of the Huo family's old house on the table, and with a mixture of words and gestures, finally let the other party know that she wanted to apply for a mortgage loan.
The loan process was not smooth, but fortunately the result was good.
Qin Anan borrowed 50,000 yuan and gave it all to Feng Jingrou.
"Mother!"
"come on!"
She raised her little fist with a heroic expression as if she was going to be Feng Jingrou's strong backing and fully support her to go to the battlefield.
Feng Jingrou was so moved that she hugged Qin Anan and was reluctant to let go for a long time.
During dinner, I told the children that I was going to Shanghai to purchase machines.
The children are very supportive.
Qin Che took out a stack of unpaid royalties and counted the total amount, which was more than 8,000 yuan.
Qin Ting took out the 3,000 yuan dividend she had just received from the chili sauce factory and fully supported her mother.
Qin Ling had no money, so he turned to look at Qin Zheng and asked, "Don't you want to support me?"
Qin Zheng: “…”
The happiest person was Qin Li. He shook Feng Jingrou's hand and acted coquettishly, insisting on going to Shanghai with her no matter what.
"Mom, I want to see my grandparents! All the kids in the village have grandparents. Even the one with the snotty nose has a grandmother, but I don't. Mom, can you take me to Shanghai to see them?!"
