Feng Jingliang smiled and arranged for the serving.

Cha Wei took out an exquisite box from her handbag and handed it to Zhang Yang and said, "Your stuff!"

Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered that before leaving Beijing last time, he had entrusted Cha Jinbei to help process the jade into an ornament. It seemed that Cha Jinbei handed this matter to Cha Wei.

Although the group of people were very curious and shouted that Zhang Yang would take out the things in the box to see, the official Zhang still kept the mystery and smiled and put the box away.

Feng Jingliang picked up the wine glass and said, "The world has changed, and in a blink of an eye, there are many more days. Today, new friends and old friends are gathered in the capital again. Life is like a song for wine, come! Brothers and sisters, we have had this cup together."

His toast caused everyone to laugh. Zhang Yang was the first to respond, raised his glass and said, "Cheers!"

After drinking three glasses of wine, everyone's topics revolve around the publicity. Recently, the disaster in Beigang has become the focus of attention across the country, so this is also very natural.

Qiao Pengju said: "Zhang Yang, I have also heard about the tsunami in Beigang abroad. How is it? What are the difficulties? Tell me it out and let me tell you, and we can do our best."

Feng Jingliang nodded and said, "Everyone is brother. If one side is in trouble, all sides will support us. Brother Zhang, don't be polite to us."

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Actually, the natural disaster has passed. What is before us is to take measures to deal with aftermath. Donating money and materials is one aspect. What makes me feel a headache is the investment promotion problem in the bonded area."

Qiao Pengfei said: "Has Mengyuan always been responsible for your investment promotion?"

Zhang Yang nodded: "After Meng Yuan was responsible for the investment promotion work, she did a great job. However, this natural disaster brought us great problems in the investment promotion work. Many of the intentions reached were ruined, and some contracts that had been signed were also in danger of breaking the contract."

Xu Jianji said: "This kind of thing is normal. Such a serious disaster has occurred in Beigang. Others will consider your environment if they invest. If the money is invested, what should I do if such a natural disaster is happening again next year?"

Zhang Yang said: "The possibility of such a thing happening is very slim. And we have redesigned the plan for this disaster."

Qiao Pengju said: "It is not so easy to rekindle the confidence of investors, not to mention that you, Beigang, not only encountered a natural disaster this time, but also a major factor in political changes."

Xue Weitong said: "There is something I always want to ask. How did my Uncle Xiang die? Was it suicide or he killed?" Xue Weitong still had some feelings for Xiang Cheng. After learning that Xiang Cheng died, she was really sad for a while.

Zhang Yang didn't want to mention this topic. According to the current situation, Xiang Cheng is more likely to commit suicide. In his heart, he believes that Xiang Cheng and Xue Shilun are inextricably linked, and all the events in Beigang may be inseparable from Xue Shilun. Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "The incident is still under investigation, and the specific situation is not clear."

Xu Jianji said: "I heard that many cadres died in Beigang this time, which may be related to a series of smuggling cases in Beigang."

Zhang Yang didn't want to continue on this topic and said with a smile: "There are many rumors about Beigang recently, but I am a person in the bureau and I don't know much about it. The situation in Beigang I saw is quite stable."

Qiao Pengju smiled and said, "The authorities are confused. The bystanders are clear. The more they are in the situation, the less they can see clearly."

Zhang Yang smiled and said nothing.

Among the people present, Qiao Pengfei is now a real official. He knows Zhang Yang's current situation more well. He picked up his wine glass and said, "I said when did you start to care about politics? Why? Are you all planning to compete with me and Zhang Yang?"

Xue Weitong said: "Even if we all go to be officials, we can't take away your jobs. There are too many Chinese officials."

Qiao Pengfei said: "Although I haven't been in the officialdom for a long time, I have some understanding of the tricks. The more I understand, the more I feel, the more unfathomable it feels. I am afraid that I will never see through the knowledge in this life, and I am not afraid of everyone's jokes. In the past, I had a stage where I felt that my elders always had too many concerns when doing things. If it were me, I would definitely do better and more beautiful than them. But now, I have just realized that if I really put me in their position, I am afraid that I can't even do anything, and their realm is definitely not something I can compare with."

Qiao Pengju smiled and said, "Pengfei, what do you mean by saying this? Why can't I understand it?"

Qiao Pengfei said: "I mean, the officialdom is not so easy to mess around. I am in the early stage. Zhang Yang is a few levels higher than me. People don't want to talk about the topics you are talking about now. Since everyone is friends, it's better not to talk about politics. If you continue to talk, Zhang Yang may not be able to sit still."

Zhang Daguanren looked at Qiao Pengfei who was talking, and felt quite amazed. Politics really emphasizes bloodline inheritance. Although Qiao Pengfei has not been in the officialdom for a long time, this kid's understanding and realm are far from being compared with ordinary people. At least he is definitely not as good as the beginning of entering the officialdom. With his understanding and background, it may not take too long to become a dark horse in the political arena. Zhang Daguanren immediately denied the title of dark horse. People like Qiao Pengfei are not suitable for the word "dark horse". The same thing may be called a miracle when it happens to others, but it is natural to happen to them.

Feng Jingliang nodded and said, "Yes, let's talk less about politics. So, I congratulate Zhang Yangrong on being a member of the Standing Committee of Beigang City." He picked up his glass and toasted.

Zhang Daguanren smiled and said, "After saying goes, I still cannot do without the word politics. I am a department-level cadre, and I am not even considered an ant in the capital."

Qiao Pengfei said: "Don't say that, if you can't even be an ant, then I'm going to be dust. I think no matter how old our official is, just do your duty."

Xu Jianguodao: "You are a strong official and like a civilian. You haven't heard of it. Now all party members can be sentenced to three years in prison, let alone officials. For example, civilians like us will be directly transferred to the crime. If you commit a crime, you will be expelled from public office first, then expelled from the party, and finally it's the turn to start a military investigation. So don't be pretentious here. To be honest, I want to be an official now."

Xu Jianji laughed and scolded: "Just fart, just let's go. If our old man hears this, believe it or not, he will take off your mouth's big teeth."

Everyone burst into laughter, and Xu Jianguo begged for mercy and said, "That's what I said, brother, don't tell me."

The dinner lasted for more than two hours. At nine o'clock that night, everyone left one by one. Qiao Pengju called Zhang Yang aside and whispered: "Zhang Yang, do you have time tomorrow? My dad wants to invite you to my house and say he has something to talk to you alone."

Apart from attending a charity dinner tomorrow night, there was nothing special during the day. He smiled and agreed, "Okay, I'm going to visit you."

Qiao Pengju didn't say much, patted his shoulder and said, "I'll meet and have a detailed chat tomorrow."

Originally, Xu Jianji had arranged other programs tonight, but everyone said that something was wrong, so he had to give up.

Cha Wei pointed to her Beetle and said to Zhang Yang: "I'll send you back."

Zhang Yang smiled and waved goodbye to everyone.

Xu Jianguo shouted, "Sister Wei, you'd better give it to me. I can't trust Brother Zhang!"

Cha Wei spat and said, "Looking at your moral character, I still believe that there are more Communist Party cadres."

Xu Jianguo laughed: "Now every party member and cadre is reliable."

Xu Jianji pulled the boy, obviously not wanting him to continue to fire his mouth.

Cha Wei and Zhang Yang had already entered the Beetle. Zhang Yang adjusted the passenger seat and found a comfortable position to lie down comfortably.

Chawei started the car and whispered: "Where are you going?"

Zhang Yang said: "You really want to send me away?"

Cha Wei said, "Otherwise, what else can it be?" She seemed unhappy and her expression was a little bit graceful.

Zhang Yang said: "Are you unhappy?"

Cha Wei shook her head, her beautiful eyes flashed, her eyes turned to the road ahead, and the car drove into the river of vehicles and drove quietly with the rolling traffic.

Zhang Yang said: "Is the work going smoothly?"

Cha Wei said: "It's still true, jewelry design should be my favorite business. I find it much easier to deal with jewelry than people."

Zhang Yang suddenly remembered the box she gave him, and his heart thrust, as if he understood something.

Cha Wei said: "The piece of jade you sent is good."

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "It's a coincidence. I just found a stone for Mr. Qiao to give it to him, but I didn't expect that there was a piece of high-quality jade in it."

Cha Wei said, "Why don't you open it and take a look?" She parked the car on the side of the road. Her beautiful eyes did not look at Zhang Yang, but looked at the starry sky outside the skylight, and her eyes flashed with the stars.

Zhang Yang took out the jewelry box and opened it, but saw that it was a set of gestures made of jade, a pair of bracelets, a string of necklaces, and a pair of earrings. Although it was under the moonlight, it was already seen that the texture of jade was excellent and the design and carving were first-class. Zhang Daren was amazed that he was not an expert in this regard, but he could also see that this set of jewelry was definitely a top-quality carefully made and priceless. Zhang Yang whispered: "Did you design it?"

Cha Wei did not directly answer his question and whispered: "Is this set of love your token of love for Qiao Mengyuan?"

Zhang Daren was stunned by her question, and then smiled and said, "This is what Mr. Qiao means, it was asked by him to help me customize it."

Cha Wei said: "It should be Mr. Qiao who is preparing to give his granddaughter a dowry. When I designed this set of jewelry, I was thinking that I was making wedding clothes for others."
