Rebirth of the Flying Era

Chapter 1242 Undercurrent

Zhang Dongsheng smiled bitterly, held the wine glass as a gesture, took a sip and said: "Brother, you don't know... I've seen too many people leave and let the tea cool down. Besides, you don't know much about some things. In short, once my uncle is gone, Yes, our family...sigh~"

Du Fei took a sip of wine and listened to Zhang Dongsheng complaining, but he felt very sober.

Zhang Dongsheng's words are half truth and half false.

Once Minister Xie is gone, their family will definitely be affected, but it is definitely not as evil as Zhang Dongsheng said.

But it also shows that Zhang Dongsheng saw the crisis in the future and simply kept his attitude to the lowest level from the beginning before the end of the road was reached to gain Du Fei's sympathy.

Otherwise, when there is no way out in the future, staying down and being small will definitely not be as effective now.

Du Fei said: "Brother Zhang, I understand your worries. I wonder how I can help?"

A flash of disappointment flashed in Zhang Dongsheng's eyes.

Du Fei went straight to the point, and the implication was that he should stop talking in circles and talk about what he had to say.

The implicit message is to tell him that we don't have that kind of friendship, and if he wants to make any demands, he has to use his chips.

Zhang Dongsheng is a sensible person, and when he invited Du Fei, he had no intention of hiring someone with nothing.

Friendship is friendship, work is work.

What's more, he and Du Fei really don't have a deep friendship.

Du Fei also quickly understood Zhang Dongsheng's request, which was to leave the capital and go out.

This is also reasonable.

Once his uncle is gone, the two brothers will definitely be an eyesore if they stay in the capital.

The so-called out of sight, out of mind, as long as you stay far away, even if some people hold grudges, as long as you don't get into trouble, there is a high probability that you won't be able to remember them.

As for why Du Fei was approached, it is actually not difficult to understand.

Zhang Dongsheng's uncle's position in the Foreign Economic Affairs Commission is important, but he has no control over the Foreign Economic Affairs Commission.

What's more, Dad Zhu now has results and is quite tough in his words.

He is relatively young and is likely to take further steps in the future.

Although you can't touch that location, it's definitely not something to be trifled with.

Only then did Zhang Dongsheng think of expressing his appeal through Du Fei.

As for the reward, Zhang Dongsheng didn't say anything. Du Fei could probably guess that it was probably not with him but with Zhu's father.

Minister Xie finally sent back some residual heat...

At around one o'clock in the afternoon, Du Fei came out of Zhang Dongsheng's house.

Zhang Dongsheng and his wife arrived at the entrance of the alley. After watching Du Fei walk away, Li Xiulan asked, "Old Zhang, what's going on?"

Zhang Dongsheng sighed and said, "I can't tell, it depends on the situation~ You clean up at home, and I'll go see my uncle."

After saying that, he turned back to get his bicycle.

Li Xiulan sighed. Ever since it was confirmed that Minister Xie had cancer, the roots of their family had begun to wither.

Until the day of death, it will be completely broken.

In this process, everyone is suffering.

Zhang Dongsheng rode his bicycle to Minister Xie's unit.

Although he was diagnosed with cancer, his uncle did not leave his job to recuperate. He said that the disease was incurable and it was better to fight to the end than to linger on the bed.

This is certainly a soldier's last persistence, and it also paves the way for his nephew at home.

If you really want to retire due to illness and give up the power in your hands, you will be completely blind.

Zhang Dongsheng came to the office, where Minister Xie was smoking and reading documents.

"Uncle~" Zhang Dongsheng came in and called out. He opened his mouth to stop the twitching, but he swallowed the words when he reached his lips.

It makes no sense to say these words of Shaoxing now. Can cancer be cured by smoking less?

"Dongsheng~" Minister Xie put down the documents at hand, took off his reading glasses and wiped them with a glasses cloth: "Have you met Du Fei?"

Zhang Dongsheng nodded: "I just met him. I told him the situation."

Minister Xie said "hmm" and said, "What was his reaction?"

Zhang Dongsheng said: "It's almost as you expected..."

Minister Xie smiled: "That's good, your affairs are basically done."

Zhang Dongsheng nodded, but he was still worried, but at this time he couldn't bear to let his uncle worry anymore.

Du Fei is the one who spreads the word about the release, and Dad Zhu is there to push the situation, so we should be sure of it.

But there are a lot of things to pay attention to when playing outside. He is from the capital. Not to mention using it at half a level, even if it is a flat level, it is still a world of difference.

Where do you go and what do you do? In the city or in the county?

It's just that he doesn't want Minister Xie to worry about these things anymore, so he simply leaves it to fate.

Zhang Dongsheng was thinking in his mind when Minister Xie suddenly said: "Dongsheng, I remember that you had a good relationship with Lao Chu and his family's boss when you were a child, right?"

Zhang Dongsheng was stunned for a moment and didn't understand why Chu Ming was mentioned suddenly. He nodded and said, "We had a good relationship when we were young, but when we were at work, we had less contact."

Minister Xie said: "Chu Ming is the county magistrate in Guangdong Province. How about you go over and join his team?"

Zhang Dongsheng did not expect that Minister Xie had already considered where to go.

I couldn't help but be moved in my heart, my eyes were red: "Uncle!"

Minister Xie waved his hand and said: "Manly man, why are you so pretentious! You are the only one of your generation in our family. Your brother is a straight man. He has the same virtues as me and can easily offend others. After I die, you keep your distance..."

Zhang Dongsheng understands that this is not to put eggs in one basket.

Minister Xie added: "Your sister also has a bad temper. She is still a girl. Take care of her if you can."

Zhang Dongsheng shed tears: "Don't worry, I...I remember."

Minister Xie added: "In addition, when you go to the south, you should try your best to cooperate with Chu Ming in your work, hide your capabilities and bide your time, and don't stand out. Do you understand?"

Zhang Dongsheng nodded: "I understand, I understand."

Minister Xie let out a long sigh...

On the other side, Du Fei returned to his work unit, thinking about what happened when he met Zhang Dongsheng just now.

After sitting down in the office, I picked up the phone and called Dad Zhu.

After being transferred by Secretary Wang, Du Fei explained the situation just now and finally asked: "Dad, look at this..."

Dad Zhu sighed and said: "Lao Xie is making arrangements for his funeral. When he was in Taihang Mountain, he was in the best health. Who would have thought that he would get this disease."

Du Fei was silent. He didn't know the relationship between the older generation.

These people have come through many hardships on the battlefield. Sometimes they may appear to be tit-for-tat on the surface, but privately they may have close friendships.

Since you don't know clearly, just don't speak to avoid saying the wrong thing.

After a while, Dad Zhu said: "I know about this, so you don't have to worry about it."

Du Fei said "Okay" and took the opportunity to ask his second brother Zhou Xiaobai to meet him in the evening.

When Dad Zhu heard this, he couldn't help but sigh: "Zhou Zhennan can't sit still anymore? Okay, you go and listen to what his son has to say."

After ending the call, Du Fei put down the receiver and thought about what Dad Zhu had just said and his tone.

Obviously, Father Zhu had anticipated the Zhou family's actions.

Du Fei took a deep breath and became increasingly aware that the current situation was complicated and undercurrent.

The afternoon passed quickly.

Luo Yun still wanted to get off work with Zhou Xiaobai as usual.

But Zhou Xiaobai said: "Xiaoyun, I can't leave with you today. My second brother has something to do with me tonight."

Luo Yun was stunned for a moment, widened his eyes and said, "When did the second brother come back?" A blush appeared on his cheeks.

Seeing Luo Yun's reaction, Zhou Xiaobai quickly looked away and replied: "I came back yesterday and will leave again tomorrow."

She has been friends with Luo Yun since elementary school. It turned out that she was young and ignorant.

Now that she is almost 20, she still doesn't understand that Luo Yun likes her second brother.

But Zhou Xiaobai knew in his heart that it was impossible for the two of them.

First of all, there is a gap in family status between the two parties. In fact, Luo Yun is not an ordinary family. Her father is a colonel and also served as a brigade commander, but it is definitely not comparable to the Zhou family.

Secondly, brother Zhou Xiaobai has no interest in this little sister at all, and the family has made arrangements and already has a partner.

However, Luo Yun never made it clear, and Zhou Xiaobai couldn't speak directly, so he could only make insinuations.

But after many hints, Luo Yun didn't seem to understand.

Luo Yun blinked and looked at Zhou Xiaobai. The meaning was self-evident and he wanted to follow him.

Zhou Xiaobai quickly shook his head: "Not today!" Then he lowered his voice: "My second brother will treat our manager to dinner tonight."

Luo Yun was stunned for a moment, with a look of disappointment on his face, and then asked curiously: "It's so cool, why is the second brother inviting the manager to dinner?"

Zhou Xiaobai is not stupid. He knows what to say and what not to say. He said perfunctorily: "I don't know, I will be responsible for running errands and notifying people."

Luo Yun didn't ask any more, said "see you tomorrow", watched Zhou Xiaobai leave, and sighed.

Zhou Xiaobai arrived at the door, got into Du Fei's jeep, and drove to the Air Force Guest House.

Brother Zhou Xiaobai was waiting at the door in advance.

Needless to say, the Zhou family’s genes are really good.

Du Fei had seen Zhou Zhennan and his wife. They were dignified and beautiful. Zhou Xiaobai was also quite beautiful.

Her second brother is not bad either, he looks a lot like Zhou Zhennan, although he is taller.

The jeep stopped and Du Fei and Zhou Xiaobai got out.

The second brother of the Zhou family walked down the steps with a smile on his face.

Zhou Xiaobai immediately introduced: "Manager, this is my second brother Zhou Sheng. Second brother, this is our manager Du."

Zhou Sheng stretched out his hand: "Comrade Du Fei, your name has been well-known in the past two years!"

Du Fei shook hands with him and felt that there were thick calluses on his palms. The man in front of him was obviously not a young man who couldn't bear hardships.

He said with a smile: "Brother Zhou, you can just call me Xiao Du. You are a classmate of my third uncle and I, and we are a comrade in the same company as a soldier. He mentions you a lot."

Zhou Sheng said meaningfully: "Zhu Tian? I'm afraid he can't say anything good. Back then, we were the only ones competing in the evaluation of new recruits."

Du Fei was just being polite. He had heard that Brother Zhou Xiaobai was going to meet, so he must make some preparations.

Knowing that Zhou Sheng and Zhu Tian were in the same primary school, and the soldiers were also in the same school, they used it as a excuse.

Unexpectedly, the two of them still have some history.

Du Fei said: "That's really a good match and a good talent."

After greetings, Zhou Sheng sent Zhou Xiaobai away and brought Du Fei here. Her mission was completed.

Although Zhou Xiaobai was curious about what Zhou Sheng and Du Fei were talking about, he had no choice but to leave.

Du Fei followed Zhou Sheng to the second floor of the guest house and came to a private room.

The private room is not large, with a square Eight Immortals table in the middle and a chair on either side.

It's just right for a small gathering of four or five people. If there are more people, you need to go to a larger room.

Zhou Sheng said hello to the waiter and brought the dishes quickly.

Looking at the light color of the dishes, they should be Huaiyang cuisine.

Zhou Sheng also prepared a bottle of Fenjiu and poured a cup for Du Fei: "Brother Du, I take the liberty of inviting you today. I'm glad you can come. I'd like to toast you a glass first."

Du Fei picked up the small white porcelain wine cup: "Brother Zhou, it's my honor to be polite, cheers~"

After speaking, he raised his neck and drank it all in one gulp.

Zhou Sheng put down his wine glass, picked up his chopsticks and asked Du Fei to eat.

Needless to say, it is indeed an air force guest house, and the chef who runs the small stove is really skilled.

Zhou Sheng is a good chatterer, and he and Du Feitian are from far and wide, and they have quite a good conversation.

It's just that after all the talk, the reason for inviting Du Fei today was never mentioned.

Du Fei was not in a hurry. They were strangers to begin with. Although they were now brothers, they were actually testing each other's character.

Until they were almost done eating, Zhou Sheng brought the topic to Lin Tiansheng.

Du Fei's heart skipped a beat, and an alarm immediately sounded in his head.

He said calmly: "Brother Lin! That's really a tiger with no sons. He led people to fight very well in Nanyang. When he went there, he led more than ten people, and now he just managed to win a province. Territory.”

Du Fei said while observing the words and expressions.

It stands to reason that Zhou Sheng and Lin Tiansheng are relatively close, but some things are not necessarily the same.

Moreover, Zhou Sheng's invitation this time was on behalf of his father, so Du Fei couldn't help but be careless.

Zhou Sheng took a sip of wine and said, "Old Lin is indeed capable. He is the only talented leader of our generation. But I didn't expect that the third son of the Li family would also be able to fight."

When Li Yuanchao was mentioned again, Du Fei became more vigilant and responded: "They are all heroes for a while~"

Zhou Sheng's eyes were meaningful: "When it comes to heroes, in my opinion, none of them can compare to you, brother Du!"

Du Fei raised his eyebrows but did not say any polite words.

He already understood what Zhou Sheng meant.

Putting down his chopsticks, he took some time to calm down and said, "Brother Zhou, after hearing what you said, do you want to end up there too?"

Zhou Sheng pursed his lips, poured a cup of wine, and drank it in one gulp: "I have self-awareness, and I can only be regarded as a middle-aged man. My family is not as good as the Lin family and the Li family. Even if I have pride in my heart, I can't turn it around." I can't do anything about it."

Du Fei simply ignored his self-effacement: "Then I wonder what Brother Zhou thinks?"

Zhou Sheng said: "Brother Du, we are all sensible people. I don't need to tell you what the situation is now. No one is sure of victory."

Du Fei said: "So, I, Uncle Zhou, also want to lose a piece?"

Zhou Sheng smiled and acquiesced.

Neither of them spoke for a while, and the atmosphere fell into silence.

After a while, Zhou Sheng said: "Brother Du, my father said more than once that you are good at schematics, far-sightedness, and planning in advance..."

Du Fei listened and thought quickly.

Zhou Sheng made it clear that he invited Du Fei today because he wanted to ask him whether he should choose Lin Tiansheng or Li Yuanchao if he was planning outside.

This question is actually not difficult to answer.

What really needs to be thought about is Zhou Zhennan's intention in asking his son to ask this question.

At first glance, it seems that Zhou Sheng should be leaning towards Lin Tiansheng.

But Du Fei knew that there was only one person loyal to the Zhou family from beginning to end.
