Chapter 332: Fifty Fights of Landlords
When it was time for lunch, Yang Sen actually called seven or eight new colleagues. Zhou Yong couldn't help but sneer when he saw this scene.
Yang Sen and his colleagues left the township government chatting and laughing, while Zhou Yong walked slowly at the end.
When they arrived at the restaurant, Yang Sen ordered six dishes for himself, and the others ordered a few more dishes, most of which were meat dishes.
"Twelve dishes, can you guys finish them all?"
"Whether we can finish the food or not is our business, just serve the food quickly."
The waiter glanced at the township government staff, thinking that they had good intentions, but was insulted by them.
Zhou Yong took in the entire scene and thought to himself: Why is a mere meeting recorder showing off his authority?
Yang Sen and his colleagues took their seats and began to talk about work matters, while Zhou Yong was left aside. He remained silent and just drank boiled water quietly.
The dishes were served one by one, and Yang Sen ordered three bottles of the most expensive white wine.
Zhou Yong roughly estimated the price of the meal, which would be at least thirty yuan.
Although more than thirty dollars was nothing to him, he didn't want to spend it!
The glasses were filled with wine one by one, Yang Sen chatted and laughed with his colleagues, and ate and drank. Zhou Yong seemed like an outsider, no one talked to him or invited him to drink.
Zhou Yong glanced at the smile on Yang Sen's face, his eyes drooped, and thought to himself: Let's see if you can laugh later.
While no one was paying attention to him, Zhou Yong replaced the white wine with boiled water. He ate and drank as usual. It was impossible for Yang Sen, who was petty, to make him unhappy.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone was drunk and their faces were red and their necks were thick. Zhou Yong pretended to go to the bathroom and rode away on his bicycle.
As for who pays the bill, Zhou Yong doesn't care at all.
The dinner was organized by Yang Sen, who invited seven or eight new colleagues. Zhou Yong sat on the bench the whole time. He would have to be crazy to spend such a huge amount of money.
Zhou Yong was riding his bicycle to Huaixi Village when he realized a problem on the way.
He didn't let Janssen profit from building the factory this time, so what will happen next time?
As a subordinate, Zhou Yong knew that he could not go against his leader's wishes repeatedly, so he had to find a way to prevent future troubles.
Zhou Yong was thinking about this matter and unknowingly entered Huaixi Village.
He took a walk home and then went to the brigade to hold a meeting.
"Starting a construction company?"
Zhou Yong nodded and glanced at everyone: "If our village has its own construction company, we can not only keep those with bad intentions out, but also greatly improve the income level of each family..."
Everyone nodded, and Sun Qing frowned slightly: "Village Chief, I fully agree with your proposal. But if we want to set up a construction company, we need professional architects, and our village does not have such talents."
Zhou Yong smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if we don't have talented people. We can train them."
Sun Qing frowned slightly: "Where can we train talents?"
"Provincial capital construction company."
Sun Qing suddenly thought of Huo Yan, and his frown immediately relaxed.
"Who should we send, then?"
Zhou Yong pondered over this question, and everyone looked at him.
The person sent must be both extremely intelligent and loyal to Huaixi Village. Otherwise, once there is a major disintegration, the Huaixi Village Construction Company will be in an extremely unfavorable situation if the talents it has trained want to develop independently.
Li Ming cleared his throat and drew everyone's attention to him: "Village Chief, why don't you go? You are an intellectual and the village chief, so it is safest for you to go and study..."
Zhou Yong glanced at Li Ming and thought: I don’t want to work as a village chief for the rest of my life.
However, as Li Ming finished speaking, everyone expressed their agreement.
Zhou Yong: “…?”
You can't play it like this. That's not what he meant.
"Village chief, please don't refuse. No one else can do this except you..."
Everyone put Zhou Yong over the fire and roasted him, and he was so angry that he clenched his back teeth.
Everyone was talking at once, and Zhou Yong looked at everyone, feeling like he was shooting himself in the foot.
After a while, Zhou Yong was in a bad mood and left the office alone in silence.
No matter how reluctant he was, the task still fell on him.
The next day, Zhou Yong arranged his work, picked up a luggage bag in the afternoon and embarked on his journey of learning.
After arriving at the county town, he went to the hospital to see Li Hongjun and stayed at Chen Pingliang's house for one night. The next day Zhou Yong went to the provincial capital.
Before coming, Zhou Yong communicated with Huo Yan over the phone. When he arrived in the provincial capital, Huo Yan drove to pick him up in person.
Originally, Huo Yan wanted Zhou Yong to live in his house, but Zhou Yong politely declined.
He came here to study and couldn't go back in a short period of time. It would be undesirable to disturb Huo Yan's life for a long time, so Zhou Yong finally chose to live in the construction company's dormitory.
Zhou Yong has basic knowledge of architecture. With his excellent comprehension ability, under the careful guidance of the master found for him by Huo Yan, he not only quickly mastered the skills of drawing drawings, but also gained a deep understanding of the principles of architecture, and made remarkable progress.
In just over two months, Zhou Yong embarked on his journey home.
On the afternoon of the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, Zhou Yong arrived home. When Li Caiyun saw her man, she was stunned for a few seconds before she reacted.
"Didn't you say you wouldn't be back for the New Year?"
Zhou Yong put down the luggage bag in his hand, and seeing that there was no one in the living room, he couldn't help but stretch out his arms.
Li Caiyun walked over with a smile, and Zhou Yong hugged her.
"You believed me when I said I wouldn't come back?"
Li Caiyun curled her lips: "You are a big liar."
Zhou Yong kissed his wife, then let go of Li Caiyun: "Where are the parents and the kids?"
"My parents took them to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy New Year's goods. They probably won't be back for a while..."
When Zhou Yong heard this, he picked up his luggage and took Li Caiyun back to the bedroom.
"What are you doing?"
"What do you think?"
He has been a monk for more than two months and there is no one at home. Shouldn't he eat some meat?
Li Caiyun blushed: "You're a pervert."
Zhou Yong originally wanted to tease her, but Li Caiyun took it seriously.
Come on, what else can Zhou Yong say after seeing this? After all, he was the one who flirted first.
Afterwards, Zhou Yong stared at his wife's shy and blushing face, and he immediately understood the true meaning of "Thirty is like a wolf, forty is like a tiger, and fifty is like a landlord."
After a while, Li Baotian and Zhang Guifang came back with their five children. When the children saw Zhou Yong, they excitedly threw themselves on him.
"Come down quickly, your dad can't even stand."
The five children let go of Zhou Yong with a smile. He patted the shoulders of brothers Li Jingchu and Li Jingen, touched the tops of the heads of sisters Zhou Kexin and Zhou Kerou, then he bent down and picked up Li Jingan.
"Son, you seem to have gained weight again."
Li Jingan pouted: "Have you gained weight?"
Zhou Yong shook Li Jingan in his arms and confirmed that his son had gained a lot of weight.
Zhou Kerou smiled and said, "Dad, your son is like a pig now. He eats more than me..."
Li Jingan didn't like what he heard: "Second sister, you are the pig!"
Zhou Kerou curled her lips: "I can't eat as much as you can."
The brother and sister started arguing, and Zhou Yong put Li Jingan aside and talked to Li Baotian and Zhang Guifang.
After dinner, Zhou Yong and Li Caiyun went to visit Li Hongjun’s home.
Li Hongjun can now walk with the help of crutches, and his overall health has recovered well.
"Zhou Yong, when will Xiao Liang's case be resolved?"
The Chinese New Year is just two days away, and Li Hongliang is still at Liu Dazhuang's sister-in-law's house!
