C496 Follow the Leader
This was the reason why most of the cases were handled by high-ranking officials. Very few high-ranking officials fell, not because the high-ranking officials in the temple were cleaner than the officials below, but because they had their own subtleties.
Of course, these were all my wishful thinking analysis. At this moment, my understanding of government affairs is still a rookie.
She held a small notebook and a stack of money. She put the money on the table, opened the notebook and said to me: "Big Brother, your friend didn't live here for long, the money you gave me that time hasn't been used up yet. This is the remaining money, this is the accommodation record, you owe it to me."
I looked at the big sister landlady and pushed the money away. "Big sister, there's no need. I'll give it all to you. My friend has been here recently and has given you and Big Brother a lot of trouble."
The big sister landlord didn't want it, so she took the money and pressed it into my hands, "Brother, you love money, you take it for granted. I will take the money that belongs to me, it doesn't belong to me, how can I take it? It's yours. I can't take it. Here, take it. "
I declined again, but Big Sis was adamant that she wouldn't accept it. Her attitude was very firm.
After being polite for a long time, I accepted the money. Then, I bid farewell to my elder sister, left the fishing village, and drove back to the city center.
When I got back to the office, I went to the office. As I passed Qiu Tong's office, I looked at the door and slowed down. I turned around and saw Qiu Tong standing on the side of the windowsill with her arms crossed, facing the door.
From the side, Qiu Tong's back looked somewhat emaciated, her brows were tightly knitted, and her expression was somewhat solemn.
My heart skipped a beat. I went to the door and knocked softly.
Qiu Tong turned around at the sound, and I saw that Qiu Tong's eyes were filled with deep worry.
Seeing me, Qiu Tong regained her composure and smiled. "Is anything the matter?" "Come in."
I walked in and looked at Qiu Tong. "Are you not in a good mood?"
At this point, I was certain that Qiu Tong already knew about Lee Shun's departure from Japan. Lee Shun's parents must have told Qiu Tong.
Qiu Tong's eyes flickered, trying her best to smile. "It's nothing."
With that, Qiu Tong sat down at her desk and invited me to sit as well.
I had just sat down and was thinking about how to talk when Yun Che brought in a form and said: "Boss Qiu, it's almost time for the National Day Festival. The corporation has informed me that the company's organs are on vacation for seven days, the company will stop reporting for three days, and the Publisher will be on vacation for three days. Our company is on duty with the company leader and some of the department heads. Who do you think will be on duty?
Qiu Tong said: "I want to join the group on duty, I ask the Party office to arrange my October 6. The duty of the company is, in principle, the Vice President and some of the department heads. When the holidays come, everyone must rest and have their own arrangements.
October 6th was Qiu Tong's birthday, and she was on duty.
"Boss Zhao said he would return to his hometown from October 2 to 6. He asked for 1 day and Boss Qiu for 2 days. The other days have not yet been arranged. " Clouds said.
Qiu Tong nodded and looked at me, "Yi Ke, I don't think you should attend the holiday shift. It wasn't easy to get a break, after resting, you should bring Hai Zhu back to your hometown of Yunnan to see your parents."
Yun Xiao looked at me. She had already been to the home of my Ningzhou before, but now that Qiu Tong said she wanted me to go back to Yunnan to visit her family, she definitely wasn't very happy.
Yun Xiao revealed a strange expression. He pursed his lips and lowered his head, not saying a word.
I said, "I'm not going back. Firstly, Hai Zhu and I had just returned home not long ago. Secondly, Hai Zhu, that tourism company, was in her busiest time during the holiday season, so there was no place for a holiday. I think I'll take part in the company's holiday shift. "
"Oh right, I forgot. The more holidays there are, the busier the tourism company is." Qiu Tong laughed. "That's good. You can take part in the shift then. You can just report it to Cloud."
"Bro, which day do you want to be on duty?" Clouds look at me.
I said, "Six!"
Yun Yun nodded and smiled, "Boss Qiu No.6 is on duty at the corporation. You, Number 6, are on duty at the corporation. What a coincidence."
"Isn't he just following the Leader?" I joked.
Yun Yun laughed again. The corner of Qiu Tong's mouth twitched. She wanted to laugh, but she didn't.
After the clouds left, I looked at Qiu Tong. "National Day holiday, 1st to 5th. How did you arrange it?"
Qiu Tong looked at me with a hesitant expression on her face. "I'm going out with his parents," she said.
I knew who he was, and I figured Lee and Lili wouldn't be in a good mood when Lee Shun was away in Japan, and it made sense that Qiu Tong would go on a trip with them.
"What about Snowy? Are you coming with me? " "No," I said.
Qiu Tong shook her head, "No, they don't know about Xiao Xue. If his mother knew about me taking her in, it would be a huge mess. You don't understand his mother's temper, so I've already asked auntie to take care of Snowy. "
"But, sooner or later, they will find out about what happened to Snowy!" "No," I said.
"I know, I can only take things one step at a time." Qiu Tong whispered.
Qiu Tong's face showed worry. She seemed to be worried about Snowy's future.
Mrs Lee, on the other hand, has left me with the impression that she is a domineering woman, with an arrogant and mean look in her eyes, as well as a desire to rule over everything. If she knew that Qiu Tong adopted a child before she got married, she would definitely go into a rage and give Qiu Tong a huge blame.
However, if she knew that Xiao Xue was his granddaughter, how would she perform?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little regretful in my heart.
Outside Qiu Tong's office, Hai Zhu called me and excitedly told me with a tired tone that there were a lot of guests who had signed up for the National Day holiday these days. She had just returned from the foreign business company Qiu Tong introduced, and the business was going smoothly. She had already signed the contract, and the other party had already paid the full amount of company fees in advance. She was working overtime with the company tonight, so I had to think of a way to eat dinner, so I didn't have to wait for her.
I drove out of the company and walked slowly along Coastal Avenue. At that moment, I received a call from Qin.
"Yi, Boss Lee went to Japan. He called me and told me to contact you directly if I need anything!" Qin said.
"I understand, what's the situation with Ningzhou?"
"The wind is calm and the waves are calm. The brothers have all returned, but they are all hidden and have not shown their faces."
"What about casinos and pawnshops?" "No," I said.
"The casino will remain closed for the time being. The pawnshop and nightclub will continue to carry out their work in the name of closing down and renovating it."
"Then let's continue like this for now." I said: "Qin, you are more familiar with Ningzhou than I am, you don't have to tell me everything, you can decide for yourself."
I don't know why, but I have a high degree of trust in Qin.
"It's better if I tell you more. Boss Lee said it before he left."
"Alright then, watch your own people and watch Duan Xiangloong. Don't act rashly." "No," I said.
After finishing the call with Qin, my car arrived at a small plaza on Coastal Road. There were a lot of tourists, children flying kites, and many people exercising.
I stopped the car, got out, leaned against the car, lit a cigarette, and looked around at the people around me.
Not far away, a slightly plump man who was not even 60 years old was concentrating on practicing Taiji Fist. He wore the kind of white brocade clothes used by martial artists. His eyes were calm and his every move was very formal.
This person looked extraordinary, mature and steady. His eyes were filled with respect and wisdom, giving him quite the imposing air.
After watching the old man for a while, I wandered off to the sea, smoking and thinking, and staring off into the distance at the sea.
Suddenly, I heard a commotion behind me. Turning around, I saw a group of people pointing at the place where the Taiji old man was hit.
I hurried over and pushed my way through the crowd. The old man was lying on his back, motionless, his eyes and mouth closed.
The person beside him was talking, "Hey — what's going on with this old man? I was just watching him hit Tai Chi. Why did he suddenly fall to the ground?"
"He must be sick. Should we help him up and see what's going on?"2
"Don't randomly try to help others. When the time comes, you might be blamed. These days, good people are difficult to deal with. Aren't there a few who have fallen prey to good people?"
"You're right, but, what should we do? This old man seems to have fainted. "
"Just faint then. If he's dead, then let him be. It's none of our business. Let's go, let's drink at night."
I went over and squatted down beside the old man and felt his pulse. It was still beating, but very slowly. I tried my nostrils. There was a faint scent. I called out to him twice, but there was no response.
Seeing that the old man's ruddy complexion was getting more and more sallow and his breathing was getting weaker, I felt that the situation wasn't good and wanted to send him to the hospital as soon as possible.
I know that less than 5 kilometers away from here is the first subsidiary hospital of the Hsinghai Academy of Medicine.
I raised my head to look at the people around me. There was no lack of able-bodied men among them, so I said, "Someone help me carry this old man to my car by the roadside."
I'm going to take the old man to the hospital in my car.
No one around him made a sound, and a few able-bodied men drew back their bodies.
I didn't say anything else. I bent down and carefully picked up the old man. I stood up and shouted to the surrounding people, "Get out of the way —"
"Get out of the way, there's someone here named Lei Feng." Everyone opened up a path.
"There really is such a retarded fool, it's too risky. It would be great if he doesn't get into trouble then."
"Stop talking, I need you to help me get to the hospital."
"I don't do this kind of nonsense. I don't even know this old man, what does his life or death have to do with me? Let me tell you this, if this kid who studied Lei Feng isn't implicated, then it would be fortunate. "
"He deserves to be called that. Who asked him to recharge his energy?" "This kind of young and inexperienced fool, if he doesn't suffer a little, he won't have a good memory."
The group of birdmen continued to discuss softly in the distance.
I ignored the noise, stood up, took a deep breath, steadied the old man, and strode toward my car.
At this moment, I didn't even think about the consequences that saving this old man would bring me. I only knew that this was a life, and since I met him, I couldn't just sit idly and watch.
This was human nature and instinct.
Mutual assistance was originally the most basic function between people. However, in these days, morality was immersed in extravagance and desire. Human nature was destroyed in selfishness and indifference. Not doing good was normal, but doing good was rare.
