Chapter 92

Du Fei and his father Du Xiaoshan took the car first.

Zhang Ke and Tang Jing got into the car and watched Wang Yanbin guard the door to send Tang Xueqian in. They could see him paying attention here when the bus left the school gate.

"Xiao Ke wrote a good composition. Where to eat at noon? Uncle Tang invited you?" Tang Xueqian said with a smile. By this time, no one mentioned his bad exam results.

"I seem to be very busy now," Zhang Ke said with a shy face and a smile, "You don't need to make a confession. I'm honest. I saw the draft of the overall scale of urban construction from my father the other day. It's a pity that the draft mentioned that Shatin should be completely demolished. Recently, I've been learning chess with Mr. Xu Hongbo of the Chess Academy and discussed the protection of Shatin ancient street. This composition is derived from this problem. Don't take it seriously if you write it casually. You should take it seriously If you're serious, don't catch me as a coolie... " Zhang Ke carefully introduced the topic to Xu Hongbo. He didn't realize that he would show it to his father and Tang Xueqian in this way before writing this composition for the mid-term exam. Since he first met Xu Hongbo, he had the intention to introduce him to Tang Xueqian and his father, but he couldn't find a chance. Tang Xueqian and his father also knew Xu Hongbo, but the estrangement and suspicion between adults increased ShangXu Hongbo deliberately ignored the people in officialdom. If he didn't push himself aside and continue to develop according to the current situation, the three would never have a deep understanding of the possibility.

"Xu Hongbo, I played chess with him. He was embarrassed to win me, so I didn't have the cheek to ask him to play chess." Tang Xueqian certainly also considered the relationship between Xu Hongbo and WAN Xiangqian, the current director of the Municipal People's Congress. Whether Zhang Ke is nonsense or not, it's necessary to contact Xu Hongbo and ask Zhang Zhixing in the front row, "Zhixing, it seems that we have time to ask Xu Hongbo to give us some advice on our chess skills."

I remember Zhang Ke recently mentioned that he learned chess with Xu Hongbo. Zhang Zhixing turned around and said with a smile, "Haizhou Chess Academy is in Shatin. Zhang Ke's composition doesn't say that the ancient street in Shatin is protected? Anyway, if you want to find a place to eat at noon, you'd better go to Shatin to take a chance and maybe meet Xu Hongbo..."

Tang Xueqian smiled and said, "well, I seldom go to Shatin to see it. Zhang Ke wrote this article first. I have no place to put my face."

Liu Wenbing turned around and drove to Shatin, turning into Qingshi Street on the Bank of Shugang river. Tang Xueqian specially asked Liu Wenbing to slow down. He hasn't seriously examined this ancient building complex. Haizhou Chess Academy is in the Taoist temple at the end of Qingshi street, and Chen feirong's tavern is in front of the Taoist temple.

Xu Hongbo usually drinks in the pub at noon. Tang Jing has sharp eyes and sees Chen feirong riding in front. Chen feirong sees the car coming and quickly stops at the roadside to let the car pass first.

"Ah, Chen feirong's family also lives here?" Tang Jing suddenly looked at Zhang Ke. "No wonder you often come here to learn chess."

Tang Xueqian looked out of the window. The girl was very beautiful. She was wearing the school uniform of Haizhou No. 1 middle school. She laughed at Tang Jing's words.

Not only does Chen feirong live here, but Xu Sijia lives in an alley inside. Zhang Ke ignores Tang Jing. His father and Tang Xueqian don't gossip so much. His mother's reaction is different when she hears Tang Jing. At the door of Chen feirong's house, Zhang Ke says to Tang Xueqian: "Uncle Tang, there's another Jianye hotel to the East. It's pretty good nearby. You go first. I'll go to Mr. Xu and we'll walk there. The car is not easy to sit."

Tang Xueqian saw that the tavern was very shabby. He planned to ask Zhang Zhixing to invite Xu Hongbo. After listening to Zhang Ke's offer, he let him out of the car without much thought.

Chen feirong pushed the car forward and saw Zhang Ke come down from the car and look back at herself. She was a little flustered. She stopped there and stared at Zhang Ke.

Zhang Ke saw that Chen feirong was like a small animal falling into a trap. His eyes were flustered. He bit his red lips and his beautiful and refined face. He was more willing to let people have evil ideas.

Zhang Ke smiled sideways: "why don't you go home when you see me?"

Chen feirong pushed the cart forward and asked Zhang Ke in a thin voice, "what can I do for you?" even so, her voice was still tender and pleasant.

"Look at you. I can't find you if I have nothing to do?" Zhang Ke smiled and couldn't bear to continue teasing her. "I came to invite Mr. Xu to drink. I think he should be in your pub at this time."

"Are you looking for Mr. Xu?" Chen feirong's pink face was slightly red. He pushed the cart to the door of the tavern, looked inside, turned back and said to Zhang Ke, "Mr. Xu is inside," his voice dropped again, and it seemed difficult to blurt out, "thank you for my mother's hospitalization."

Zhang Ke smiled and said, "don't give a solemn thanks for your efforts."

"It's very insignificant for you, but for people like us..." before Chen feirong finished, she pushed her car into the yard through the narrow gate,

Zhang Ke was stunned and then pushed the door into the tavern. The tavern was still very deserted. Chen Qi didn't want to take care of the tavern during this time. He saw Xu Hongbo still sitting in his original position with a wine bowl between his three fingers.

"Hear your voice and say you want to buy me a drink again?"

"In the Jianye hotel in front, my father and Mayor Tang invited you to drink. It is said that they want to compete in chess." Zhang Ke said with a smile.

"One is the mayor and the other is the Secretary General of the municipal government. His chess skills are much better than mine. It's impossible to compete. Wine can still be drunk." Xu Hongbo turned his head and shouted inside, "Chen Qi, today's account will be hung up first, and Zhang Ke invited me to drink elsewhere." before Chen Qi came out to answer, he went out of the pub with Zhang Ke.

Out of Qingshi street, take a taxi to Jianye hotel. Xu Hongbo has become a human being. His meaning is clear at a glance. He doesn't need to spend much time.

Rushed to Jianye Hotel, just got off the taxi, a Toyota car leaned over from the back. Zhang Ke was startled. The Toyota stopped steadily, and a fat man came out of it. He turned around the Nissan car parked in front of the hotel, confirmed that it was Tang Xueqian's ride, and walked in tightly. Zhang Ke followed him into the hotel lobby and heard him yelling at the waiter in waiter's uniform behind the front desk: "where's Mayor Tang? Take me there quickly."

Well, don't ask. Just follow.

Zhang Ke and Xu Hongbo smiled at each other and followed him up the stairs at the corner of the lobby. On the third floor, the fat man noticed that Zhang Ke and Xu Hongbo had been following him. His eyebrows raised. The smile on his face did not disappear: "which are you looking for? There are boxes on the third floor?" he complained to the waiter around him, "is there no one to entertain guests at this time?"

"I heard that Mayor Tang is eating here. I'm worried that I can't find a place." Xu Hongbo said with a smile.

The fat man hesitated for a moment and couldn't recognize Xu Hongbo and Zhang Ke, old and young. He thought he could catch up with Tang Xueqian, and his level would not be too bad. He smiled on his face and said, "my family name is Wu, Koutai Wu, Wu Tianbao, you two..." seeing that Xu Hongbo and Zhang Ke didn't mean to introduce themselves to me or annoyed, he walked forward and pointed to the front room, "Room 318, why don't you go first?"

Zhang Ke smiled and looked at his momentum. It was probably the owner of Jianye hotel. Hearing the news that Tang Xueqian was eating here, he rushed over, but he was stage fright when he came in. Ignoring him, Zhang Ke and Xu Hongbo pushed the door in first, and looked back at the door: "Mr. Wu, do you want to come in?"

"To enter." Wu Tianbao asked Zhang Ke to shout, wiped the sweat star off his forehead and followed him into the room.

Zhang Zhixing leaned over and asked Xu Hongbo to take his seat. Seeing Wu Tianbao coming in, he was a little strange and looked at Zhang Ke.

Zhang Ke spread his hand, said he didn't know him, and sat down directly next to Tang Jing.

Wu Tianbao found that Xu Hongbo and Zhang Ke were in time for Tang Xueqian's dinner. He hurriedly introduced himself: "I am the manager of Jianye hotel. It is the honor of all the staff of Jianye hotel that Tang Xueqian came to our Jianye hotel to have dinner in his busy schedule..."

"Although I'm busy, I still have to eat," Zhang Ke turned around. "I can't say whether I'm honored or not." he looked at the menu under Tang Jing's arm. "How can you choose what you like to eat?"

"What's your opinion?" Tang Jingxiu's eyebrows were slightly raised, her black and white eyes were fixed on Zhang Ke, and her voice was soft and charming. "I don't pay attention to you if I have any opinions."

Zhang Ke smiled helplessly, looked at Tang Xueqian and said, "we'll starve to death if Tang Jing decides what to eat. Why don't we ask manager Wu to recommend some dishes?"

Tang Xueqian smiled and said, "please ask manager Wu to recommend some dishes..."

Wu Tianbao took a closer look at Zhang Ke. Whether there was Zhang Ke's sentence or not, he didn't speak to him. He recommended several special dishes, took the menu and went down to decorate it himself.

Xu Hongbo knew Tang Xueqian and Zhang Zhixing, but they were not familiar. Naturally, the topic began with Zhang Ke's learning chess. Zhang Ke studied chess in the children's palace in primary school. At that time, Xu Hongbo just resigned from public office and taught chess in the children's palace. At that time, both Zhang Zhixing and Tang Xueqian were still in Haizhou normal school. Zhang Ke didn't impress him very much.

Naturally, the topic should be carefully avoided by Xu Si. When it comes to chess, it is necessary to talk about the inheritance of go in Haizhou. The Taoist temple at the end of Qingshi alley has repeatedly produced go masters since the late Ming Dynasty. Haizhou's go gradually declined until the Republic of China. When it comes to the Taoist temple, it is natural to talk about the century old deep houses and courtyards around the Taoist temple and the characteristics of dark gray and white folk houses.

While eating and drinking, Xu Hongbo talked eloquently and did not intend to buy it. After Zhang Ke mentioned the issue of demolition or retention, he spent his energy and carefully studied the Minqing buildings in Shatin. He also heard that the class of people in the Planning Bureau tended to tear down and rebuild. If he could write directly in front of Tang Xueqian, he naturally had to spare no effort to exert influence on Tang Xueqian, so that he could do it Save the fate of Shatin ancient buildings.

Tang Xueqian smiled and said, "this question was put forward by Zhang Ke first?"

"He bumped me into drinking in a tavern. A game of chess first destroyed my prestige, and then asked me if it was a pity to dismantle all Shatin for reconstruction, so I thought about these questions," Xu Hongbo said, "I've started to do some work these days to piece together the history of Shatin ancient street. The source of Shugang River comes out of the golden lake. However, the golden lake was filled in the process of reclaiming land from the lake in the 1960s, leaving only the little golden lake in the people's Park. The lake surface is less than 11. Shugang river has become a canal. Qingshi Street on the river was originally named Shatin straight street, at least not many local people know its old name. The Taoist temple at the end of straight street is Qingyang temple was built in the late Southern Song Dynasty, destroyed by war in the late Yuan Dynasty and rebuilt in the early Ming Dynasty, but its scale is small... Although Shatian is old and dilapidated, it can't be torn down because of the inheritance and accumulation of Haizhou culture. Is history and culture diametrically opposed to modern civilization? "

Tang Xueqian nodded deeply convinced: "the city entrusted the Urban Planning Bureau to draft the general design draft of urban planning. Last year, the planning idea was discussed and adopted at the meeting of the Municipal Standing Committee. It only mentioned the transformation of the old city, but did not involve the protection of the old city. The idea was seriously limited and there was a need for adjustment..." took the folded test paper from the jacket pocket and said: "Zhang Ke wrote a composition. Mr. Xu helped him see..."

It is not very difficult to veto Ding Xiangshan. The key planning ideas were discussed and adopted at the meeting of the Municipal Standing Committee. Tang Xueqian is also a member, and other standing committee members are still in office. There will be no less resistance to readjust the planning ideas. Xu Hongbo didn't know how Zhang Ke's article could make Tang Xueqian pay so much attention. Xu Hongbo took it over and read it carefully. The more he read it, the more surprised he became. All the problems he hadn't completely thought through in just two thousand words lit up one by one. There are really talented people in this world.

Xu Hongbo quietly read that "the city is surrounded by clear water, white walls and black tiles, and ancient bridges are continuous". He looked up and said, "good articles, at least those masters of the planning bureau should read them..."

"It's a pity that the article is too short. The article should have a lingering rhyme and be recognized by others." Tang Xueqian looked at Zhang Ke. "Can you write a big article?"

Zhang Ke is grabbing a cumin pig's hoof and gnawing it. His hands are greasy and squeaky. "Teacher Xu has a research on this. If you want to write a big article, you also need teacher Xu's wonderful pen and flowers. It's not good to catch child labor."

Tang Xueqian knew more about Xu Hongbo's resignation from public office than others. He was not sure of Xu Hongbo's approval. He tentatively asked Zhang Ke, but asked Zhang Ke to gently dial Xu Hongbo. As expected, he was clever. With this article as the foundation, supplementary materials can become a good article, but the influence of who wrote this article is very different.

Tang Xueqian did not dare to take his false name as his own. He took the lead in re discussing the idea of urban planning. Who knows what other standing committee members and Wanxiang will think. Such a political risk is too great.

Xu Hongbo is a non-governmental figure, but he is not far from Haizhou officialdom. In addition to the resume between Xu Hongbo, the article comes from him. It's really a masterstroke.

In this way, Tang Xueqian felt that Zhang Ke had more wisdom than adults. Listening to Zhang Ke's words, he naturally wanted to push the boat along the water, pretended to have a helpless smile, turned his head and said to Xu Hongbo: "Mr. Xu taught Zhang Ke to play chess and asked him to write an article. This article also needs Mr. Xu's brush. What information do you want to let Zhixing help you say hello to the uncle of the Planning Bureau..." he was also very dissatisfied with the bureaucratic style of the Bureau.

Xu Hongbo hesitated. Of course, Tang Xueqian wanted to use this big article. In a twinkling of an eye, he could understand it. If he promised, he would undoubtedly be involved in the vortex again and could not get away from it.

"Does Mr. Xu think it's not a pity to dismantle Qingyang Taoist temple, or does my chess skills are too poor and not worth teaching?" Zhang Ke picked up a wet paper towel, wiped the greasy on his lips, looked at Xu Hongbo, and thought: after all these thoughts, he wound you in and let you slip away casually, wouldn't he wronged me? Seeing Xu Hongbo's hesitation, he said, "Wine is good wine, banquet is not good banquet. I just told manager Wu of Jianye hotel that Mr. Xu invited Mayor Tang to dinner. If you don't promise, the money for this table will be enough for you."

"Nonsense, you think your uncle Tang is a scoundrel?" Tang Xueqian laughed and said to Xu Hongbo, "when director Wan was a secretary, you wrote several good articles, which I like to read, but it's just good articles..."

After hesitating for a while, Xu Hongbo said with a smile, "I only have 20 yuan in my pocket. I can't afford this wine." if the planning ideas can't be adjusted, it's a pity to dismantle all Shatin.

When the wine was exhausted, Zhang Ke handed his wallet to his father under the table. Although Wu Tianbao wouldn't charge for the meal, his father couldn't lose face and eat and drink for nothing. He didn't necessarily have enough money in his pocket.

Zhang Zhixing took his wallet, opened it and saw that the thick stack of banknotes was much bigger than his wallet, and he didn't know how much Xie Wanqing gave Zhang Ke. It seemed that his pocket money was no less than his father's. he smiled bitterly and went out to pay the bill with his wallet.

Everyone stood up to go. Zhang Ke said, "it's a pity to lose so many dishes left. Mr. Xu lives near here. I'll pack it for Mr. Xu and send it back."

Tang Xueqian said with a smile, "even if you don't go with us, you have to make excuses. Which meal will you think it's a pity to eat leftovers?"

Zhang Ke is shy and smiles. If he doesn't separate from Tang Jing at this time, he won't be able to get away later. He led Zhitong to see Xu Wei last night. Today, Xu Si asked Xu Wei to go directly to the company to see sister Wanqing. The introducer always shows up.
