The atmosphere at the dinner was good, and the party came to an end as the glasses clinked. No one drank too much, but it was enough to finish the meal, after all, it was the first time everyone met.
When Tian Wei came over with his glass of wine to toast Li Xiuyuan, he whispered to him, "Secretary Li, didn't we say before that we want to get together? There are a few students from the Xian'an and the Shangshang Bureau waiting for you. We wanted to see if it's convenient for you. Can you come over and sit for a while after the party? We all want to get to know you. We have admired you for a long time..."
"Well, now that we've said that, we're all classmates, so it's only natural for us to get to know each other. How about this, you let them eat first, and we'll talk about it after we finish here." Li Xiuyuan neither agreed nor refused immediately.
"Okay, Secretary Li." Tian Wei returned to his seat, took out his cell phone and sent a message.
"Secretary Li has no problem with the schedule, everyone please wait a moment."
After Tian Wei sent the message, Lei Yang received the message in a private room of Huangyuan Hotel and told the people who were waiting. They had been waiting here for more than half an hour. During this time, everyone was chatting, drinking tea, and smoking, but no one came to the table. They all waited in the leisure area on the side.
Huangyuan Hotel was also glorious in its time. It was once a state-owned hotel. The county would hold receptions for leaders and meetings here. However, after the 11th century, the decoration has become a bit old.
It has been contracted out to an individual these days, and its quality has dropped, but it is still one of the most famous restaurants in the county.
The furnishings in the private room are a bit old, but very grand. There are leisure areas and private rooms. It is a suite overall.
Everyone was envious of the fact that Tian Wei, Zheng Zhihong, Wan Xinxin and Xing Weitao were able to represent the students to attend Yuan Qiang's dinner party, but there was not much jealousy. These four people either had connections, like Wan Xinxin and Xing Weitao, or Tian Wei and Zheng Zhihong had good units, working in the County Party Committee Propaganda Department, and had close relations with the County Party School.
These five people are slightly inferior to Tian Wei and his four companions.
However, they also knew that Tian Wei and the other three were only there to serve as supporting roles, as the main attraction was the county magistrate's secretary.
"Brother Tian just sent a message saying he would be here soon." Lei Yang said.
Zhang Yong from the Finance Bureau heard this and asked, "Where's the chief secretary? Is this great god coming?"
"Brother Tian said there shouldn't be any problem, and judging by the time, they should be done over there too."
"That's great. I was thinking I'd be able to see this great master when the class starts today, but I didn't expect him to even attend the opening ceremony. So tonight we can finally get a glimpse of him in advance."
"Yeah, I guess there are a lot of new students in this initial training class, and I'd love to get to know them."
Others also spoke up.
"In fact, I heard that before this great man became the secretary of the leader, he came to our Finance Bureau and had some unpleasantness with Deputy Director Shao of our Finance Bureau. After this great man became the secretary of the leader, our Director Shao put a lot of thought into it. I heard that he even allocated funds to replace the street lights at the entrance of his community." Zhang Yong said.
Someone in his family happened to work in the municipal government, otherwise, he wouldn't have heard the news.
In fact, the reason why this small circle of nine people can get together is that they all have connections behind them, except for Lin Jingya who was sitting on the sofa nearby. She had forced her way into this dinner.
