Chapter 324
"Could it be that he was able to get to this point because of Chief of Staff Wang?"
Vice President Zhang shook his head, "No, no, no!"
"Li Ruide has devoted his entire life to the revolutionary cause. He has no family, no relatives, no descendants, and in the army, he is considered the clearest and most pure..."
"I've known him for over twenty years. Previously, the higher-ups wanted to help him with his personal issues and even arranged several meetings, but he refused!"
"Even though he said he wasn't feeling well and didn't want to delay other girls, there were still a lot of girls lining up just for him, and he rejected them all!"
Seeing that Vice President Zhang was going off topic, Song Jingzhou quickly reminded him, "What do you mean by saying he has a connection with Chief of Staff Wang?"
"Oh, about that. Actually, I don't know if it counts as a connection, but more than ten years ago, at a social gathering, I accidentally saw him calling Chief of Staff Wang's lover."
Song Jingzhou's heart tightened, "What did he shout?"
"Call Auntie!"
"Aunt?"
"Yes, call me auntie!"
Song Jingzhou asked doubtfully, "Isn't the Chief of Staff's wife's surname Liu?"
"I saw her before I was discharged. She came down to visit the soldiers. I saw the name tag on her seat. Her last name was Liu!"
Vice President Zhang nodded. "Yes, his last name is Liu! He's an old revolutionary!"
"Minister Li's surname is Li, so why is he calling Chief of Staff Wang's wife 'Auntie'?"
"Who knows? Hey, why are you so curious about this kind of thing? Stop talking nonsense. The thing we researched last time has already been produced by the production department. Today we need to debug the results and see what needs to be improved!"
"The higher-ups are still waiting for us to come up with a rough report before they can approve the funding!"
"Let's go to the cafeteria and eat before heading back to the studio. I guess we'll have to stay up late again tonight!"
On the other side, guard Zhao Dong was driving the car, and from time to time he would secretly glance at Li Ruide through the front mirror!
At this time, Li Ruide was pursing his lips and looking deep in thought, with a frown on his brow, as if he had encountered something troublesome.
Zhao Dong has followed Li Ruide for more than ten years. Looking at his leader's expression, he knew that the leader was in trouble!
After Wang Jingtao saw his godfather off, he turned around and went to the Military Affairs Department.
"Uncle Liu! Are you busy?"
Liu Chunyang, director of the Military Affairs Department, put down the teacup in his hand and stood up from his office with a smile on his face.
"Hey, Jingtao, come here, I got two taels of red robe not long ago, try it! Hurry up and sit down, hurry up and sit down, it's really better to come at the right time than to come at the right time. If it were an ordinary person, I would not be willing to give it to you!"
Wang Jingtao was not polite and immediately sat down on the stool that Liu Chunyang pulled out.
"Then I'm in for a treat!"
"Hahaha, my student sent it to me. He said it was from a century-old tree on Mount Wuyi. It only produces this much per year. He had a hard time getting two taels, and he gave it all to me!"
Liu Chunyang raised his chin towards the door as he spoke, "Your Uncle Huang asked me to give him some money, but I refused!"
"You're still secretly scolding me for being stingy, hahahaha!"
After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Liu Chunyang got down to business.
"Jingtao, I know you're the type who never comes to visit me for no reason. Tell me, what do you want from me?"
Wang Jingtao smiled generously, "Can't I just stop by and come in to see Uncle Liu?"
"Okay, I don't know you yet. You're a very busy person. It's not easy to find you normally!"
"My nephew was complaining to me the other day, saying he'd been to your house several times but hadn't met you!"
Liu Chunyang lost his mother at the age of three and his father at the age of five. He was raised by his elder sister when he was a child.
His sister was seven years older than him. With her personality and looks, she could have found a good family at that time. However, she ended up having to bring him along as a burden. Families with better conditions were unwilling to add another mouth to feed, so they delayed his marriage and made his life unhappy.
Now he has become successful and he treats his sister's only son as his own son.
Some time ago, my nephew Deng Xiaoming followed Wang Jingtao's path and wanted to join the special forces team from the elite team.
Considering the nephew's standards and professional qualities, this is actually just a favor, because Deng Xiaoming meets all the standards, but Wang Jingtao seems to be deliberately avoiding him.
Of course, Liu Chunyang still had the attitude of asking someone to do something for him. No matter whether the other party could be flexible or not, he did not dare to show any emotion on his face. After all, Wang Jingtao's surname was Wang.
Wang Jingtao certainly understood what Liu Chunyang meant by this, although he spoke as if he was staying out of the matter.
"Uncle Liu, I came here this time because of this matter. My grandfather assigned me a task a while ago, but I have been busy all the time. Xiao Ming has been running around for several times."
"I just had some free time, so I came to your place right away. Please don't be offended!"
Liu Chunyang was delighted when he heard what Wang Jingtao meant, but he remained calm as he poured more tea for him. "No, no, I know you're busy. Besides, Deng Xiaoming is Deng Xiaoming, and I am me. Although he and I are uncle and nephew, you don't have to give me face if you're embarrassed."
"Whatever you have to do, you have to do it. I told him before to wait for the special recruitment at the end of the year. He saw someone above him was injured and a spot was vacated, so he just couldn't wait even half a year!"
Wang Jingtao had a smile on his face, but in his heart he was cursing Liu Chunyang, the old fox. He had clearly chosen his own way, but still didn't want to accept his favor.
What Liu Chunyang meant by this was that what Deng Xiaoming asked him to do was Deng Xiaoming's own business, and he also indirectly said that even if he didn't do it himself, he could still be recruited through special recruitment at the end of the year!
Wang Jingtao seemed not to understand Liu Chunyang's words and said with a smile, "It's not difficult at all. Besides, everyone in the circle knows that Uncle Liu loves his nephew like his own son."
"If it were someone else, I might have really turned it down, but since it's Xiao Ming, I can't refuse even for Uncle Liu. Otherwise, Uncle Liu will scold me in secret, hahahaha."
He didn't want to take on this favor, but he insisted on doing it.
Liu Chunyang also laughed out loud. It turned out that Wang Jingtao was unwilling to suffer any loss!
"Uncle Liu, I'm here to change Brother Xiao Ming's schedule."
At this point, Wang Jingtao casually said in a very natural tone, "Also, there are files from the Engineering Research Institute Group of the General Armaments Department. Can you give them to me as well?"
Liu Chunyang was stunned. Not everyone can read the files of the Military Materials Department. Logically, this must be done with the instructions of the superiors.
However, considering that Wang Jingtao is the grandson of Chief of Staff Wang, and Wang Jingtao just mentioned that his grandfather assigned him a mission, it should be required by the mission, right?
Liu Chunyang didn't ask any more questions and directly found the file.
