The driver must have done similar things more than once before, and the music started playing, and the volume was turned up quite loudly.
Although they haven't met yet, Wu Zhongyuan has already made a general judgment about Deputy Section Chief Niu. First of all, this person is a nouveau riche. The characteristics of the nouveau riche are that they are rich but superficial, and they like to show off. It is normal to drive a Mercedes-Benz if you have money. Many well-established wealthy people also drive Mercedes-Benz. What shows off the tail is the string of eights on the license plate, which clearly shows off their wealth.
In addition, this person is very flamboyant, just come and drive a Mercedes-Benz, and he also deliberately plays music to highlight his status. This is the same as those workers who bought a new car and went back to their hometown to celebrate the New Year, deliberately rolling down the windows and playing high-pitched music. One nature is too exaggerated and superficial, but it also indirectly shows that this person has a lot of personality and doesn't care much about what others think of what he wants to do.
The big Mercedes-Benz came slowly. The driver got out of the car first when he got close. He was a young male driver, still wearing the driver's uniform and hat. After getting out of the car, he helped Deputy Section Chief Niu, who was sitting in the back seat, open the door.
A fat man wearing a captain's military uniform and small sunglasses got out of the car sideways. Upon seeing this, Director Gao took the initiative to greet him and shake hands, "Deputy Section Chief Niu, you have had a hard journey."
The fat man had a big belly, and his buttons might snap off at any time. "If it wasn't hard work, who would have made the motherland need me?"
Director Gao was just about to introduce Wu Zhongyuan to the fat man. The fat man spotted an acquaintance at a glance and walked over to him with a big smile. "Oh, aren't you Chen Mingqiang from the Chenzhou faction? I haven't seen him for many years."
The latter greeted him cordially, "Yes, Brother Niu, we haven't seen each other for eight years. We are busy with official duties and have never taken time to visit you and Section Chief Yu."
In addition to Chen Mingqiang, Fatty also had several old acquaintances. He was extremely happy to meet old friends and got together to laugh and reminisce about the past.
Director Gao originally wanted to introduce the fat man to Wu Zhongyuan, but it was inconvenient to interrupt the fat man's reminiscing with a few old friends. He had to look at Wu Zhongyuan with embarrassment. He was relieved when he saw that Wu Zhongyuan was smiling and didn't mind.
"Hey, I haven't seen you in a few years. You are now a lieutenant colonel. You were promoted very quickly." The fat man pointed at Chen Mingqiang's military rank and said.
Chen Mingqiang was about to answer, but the fat man had already turned his head to look at Director Gao, "Hey, Director Gao, do I need to mention my military rank? Look, I'm almost forty, and I still have 13 cents hanging on my head." , How can there be such an old captain?"
"Solve it as soon as possible, resolve it as soon as possible." Director Gao smiled perfunctorily, "Come on, come on, I will introduce to you..."
Before Director Gao could finish speaking, the fat man ignored him and shouted to the driver, "What are you doing standing still? Take all the gifts and give them to the brothers."
After saying that, he turned to everyone and said loudly, "I come back once in a while and brought you some specialties, but they are nothing good. One person has ten kilograms of dried sea cucumbers. This thing is not worth much. One kilogram is not worth much." It’s only 2,000 yuan. If there are too many people and there’s not enough room, we’ll give it a discount and make it 20,000 yuan per person.”
As soon as the fat man said this, everyone immediately thanked him happily. This meeting gift was quite big. Some newcomers did not recognize him. They were originally repelled by his exaggerated appearance. But now that they saw that he was so generous, their dissatisfaction with him disappeared in an instant. In fact, showing off wealth is not annoying. What is annoying is that showing off wealth is also stingy. Most people still like people who show off wealth but are generous.
The 18th Branch is an institutional unit, so it is not allowed to do this. Director Gao said bravely, "This, this, Deputy Chief Niu, this is somewhat inappropriate..."
Before Director Gao finished speaking, the fat man waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I've prepared a gift for you too."
Director Gao's original intention was to stop excessive gifts, but what the fat man said made him feel like he was asking for a bribe. He explained awkwardly, "That's not what I meant..."
The fat man didn't give him a chance to finish his sentence, and yelled at the driver, "Um, bring down that box of Chinese food and share it with everyone."
After saying this, he said to everyone "not without apology\
,""Hey, I'm so sorry. I left in such a hurry yesterday that I didn't have time to prepare, so I had no choice but to give up on you all. In fact, I originally wanted to buy the Ninth Five-Year Plan, but everyone knows that where I live It’s a fifth-tier town…Hey, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’ll take a call first.”
Before the fat man finished speaking, he ran to the side to answer the phone. Everyone couldn't let the driver carry it alone, so they all went up to help.
Director Gao gave Wu Zhongyuan a helpless smile. Although he said nothing, the implication was obvious, "Now you know why I dare not use him, right?"
Wu Zhongyuan also responded with an unnatural smile, and his unspoken meaning was obvious, "I didn't ask you to call him over either?"
When the two of them were making eye contact, the fat man was answering the phone. Wu Zhongyuan's ears and eyes were clear and he could clearly hear the voice on the other end of the phone. The call should be from his wife, asking if he was there. The fat man seemed a little henpecked. As soon as the soft-spoken answer arrived, the other party asked him what the specific task was. He replied that he didn't know yet. The other party asked him if he wanted to call the ninth junior brother back. The fat man said no, he could handle it himself.
When the fat man answered the phone, Wu Zhongyuan winked at Director Gao, and at the same time waved his hand slightly, indicating to Director Gao that this person was unreliable and that he was not required to participate in this mission.
But Director Gao had a troubled look on his face, frowned and shook his head, meaning that it was easier to ask the gods than to give them away, and he could no longer be driven away.
At this moment, the English song in the car finished playing and the next song automatically started playing, 'Brother, where is your home? Sister, I want to marry you. No matter how far apart we are, we will still be with you. ah……'
High-end Mercedes-Benz cars all use Berliner Sound speakers. Good speakers are different. The sound quality is very good, but this kind of song has a bit of tackiness. It is very different from the momentum of the God of Gamblers just now. Help move things. Everyone was stunned. It turned out that Fatty usually listened to this kind of song.
The fat man also found that the music tasted wrong, so he ended the call in a hurry and shouted to the driver, "Turn off the music, I will marry you because I love you. Listen to Leonardo da Vinci's symphonies more in the future to improve your taste."
The driver hurriedly nodded in agreement and ran to the front to turn off the music. Although Wu Zhongyuan didn't understand music, he knew that Da Vinci was a painter. Anyone else would have scorned the fat man's pretentiousness and elegance, but he suddenly felt that this fat man was very It's interesting, not in a funny way, but very real. Although it's vain, it's not hypocritical. Although it's superficial, it's not coy. Although it's a bit pretentious, it's not annoying.
The fat man scolded the driver and then noticed that Wu Zhongyuan had been standing next to Director Gao, and except for him, everyone else was wearing military uniforms.
"Director Gao, who is this little brother?" the fat man asked proactively.
Wu Zhongyuan didn't know what Director Gao said to Fatty yesterday, but judging from Fatty's tone, Director Gao probably didn't mention him to Fatty yesterday, so he reached out to Fatty and said, "Deputy Section Chief Niu, hello, my name is Wu Zhongyuan."
"My name is Niu Jingang," the fat man stretched out his hand to shake Wu Zhongyuan's hand, "Are you also from the 18th Precinct?"
"I'm not." Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and smiled.
Director Gao stepped aside and said, "Deputy Section Chief Niu, this little brother is not an ordinary person."
"How unusual?" the fat man asked casually.
Director Gao smiled and said nothing.
Seeing that Director Gao didn't say anything, the fat man didn't ask anything. He took a few steps back and looked at Wu Zhongyuan's head with squinted eyes.
Seeing Fatty's eyes narrowing, Wu Zhongyuan guessed that Fatty might be observing his aura. He didn't want to tease Fatty, so he didn't hide or change his aura.
After a few seconds, the fat man frowned in confusion, pinched his fingers with his left hand, and muttered something.
He must have discovered Wu Zhongyuan's spiritual energy cultivation through his breath. The fat man's eyes widened and he exclaimed, "Oh shit, golden spiritual energy, you are not human..."?
