Hu came in and called and asked where Xu Yishan was now. If Xu Yishan was not convenient to go there, he would come over.
Xu Yishan declined and said: "Old Hu, I still have something to finish, so I will go to you when I finish it."
Hu Jin smiled and said: "Old Xu, you are not a real person. I heard that you came, and you came back from a long distance, but you didn't even see one person. What do you mean?"
Facing Hu Jin's questioning, Xu Yishan explained: "Old Hu, it's not time to bother you yet. I'll find a way first, and if I can't get through, I will ask you."
"Want money?" Hu Jin asked straightforwardly, and laughed loudly: "Old Xu, you may be the last person in our class to ask me for money. Tell me, how much do you want?"
Xu Yishan's heart moved, and he remembered that he was also in the classmate group, but he had never seen anyone mention this matter.
The university group was established upon graduation, and the leader of the group is the monitor.
When the group was first established, it was bustling every day, some shared beautiful articles, and some shared life. Everyone paints a picture of the good life.
Xu Yishan seldom spoke in the group, even if the monitor, Aite, was in the whole class, he would not say a word.
After a few months, there was no more news from the group. It seems that everyone has no mood to talk anymore, and the group has become silent, and no one has sent a message in it all year round.
Xu Yishan would occasionally browse other students' circle of friends or QQ records quietly, and found that some students lived happily. A deputy secretary-general of the municipal party committee.
Without waiting for Xu Yishan to speak, Hu Jin said first: "However, they didn't ask for any money from me."
In one sentence, Xu Yishan's heart sank. Hu Jin was vaccinating him. Did he guess that he came to Yanjing to look for money?
"However, Lao Xu, you are different from them. Just ask for as much as you want." Hu Jin smiled and said: "The premise is that our brothers haven't seen each other for seven or eight years, and you have to see me."
Xu Yishan thought for a while and said, "Okay, let's meet."
Hu Jin was at home and invited Xu Yishan to sit at home.
Remembering that Liao Zi came to pick him up yesterday, he temporarily changed his mind halfway because Liao Zi reminded him with one word.
Going to someone's house as a guest, empty-handed is too disgraceful.
But Liao Zi said very truthfully, people in Yanjing, what have you never seen? What is there at home? No matter how expensive a gift he gave, it was commonplace in the eyes of others.
What's more, with Xu Yishan's current financial resources, he can't afford expensive gifts.
In this case, simply empty-handed. He gritted his teeth and asked Bai Yu and Ali to go back first, and he went to Hu Jin's house alone.
Hu Jin still lived in the courtyard house a few years ago.
There are several types of courtyard houses in Yanjing, and they are generally large courtyards, where a few dozen or so houses are crowded together. There are very few people in Yanjing who own a courtyard house exclusively for Hu Jin's family.
Living in a courtyard house does not care about how much money you have, but how high your prestige is. Less than a certain level, there is no need to think about it.
Siheyuan is a symbol of status, especially the courtyard of Hu Jin's house, which is said to be the residence of a prince in the former Qing Dynasty.
Xu Yishan only remembered that Hu Jin's house was very big, and he went in and out a few times.
Entering the door is a huge stone screen with a dignified "Fu" character engraved on it, and on the back is the character "Lu" with an iron pen and silver hook.
Hu Jin once joked that each piece of floor tiles in their house carries a piece of history. When people walk on it, they are walking through the time and space of history.
At that time, Xu Yishan didn't know the history of the courtyard house, so he asked Hu Jin's family why they didn't live in the elevator building. Hu Jin shook his head slowly and told him, "No matter how tall the building is, there is no grounded courtyard."
Hu Jin was waiting at the door, the weather in Yanjing was already very hot in May.
He was dressed in white clothes like silk and satin, and held a folding fan in his hand. At first glance, he didn't look like a person working in an office, but like a wild crane in the clouds, carefree.
Seeing Xu Yishan get down from the taxi, Hu Jin took the initiative to greet him, punched Xu Yishan on the shoulder and said: "Old Xu, you are too arrogant, please don't move you?"
Xu Yishan quickly explained: "Old Hu, don't talk nonsense, I, Xu Yishan, who came from a small place, dare to put on airs in front of you?"
Hu Jin laughed loudly, turned around and shouted into the yard: "Liao Zi, brother Xu is here, make a pot of tea."
Liao Zi came out and welcomed Xu Yishan in together with Hu Jin. Turn around the screen and enter the living room.
This is a large open foyer,The furnishings in the room look simple and dignified, and at first glance they are not high-end goods.
"Sit whatever you want." Hu Jin greeted him and said, "Old Xu, every stool you sit on will be worth your lifetime wages in the auction market for every stool you sit on."
Xu Yishan secretly calculated in his mind, his annual salary plus benefits is about one hundred thousand, if calculated according to thirty years of working life, then the value of a random stool here is hundreds of thousands?
He couldn't help opening his mouth wide, and sighed: "Old Hu, these stools are so precious, I don't even dare to sit on my butt."
Hu Jin smiled and said: "Stools are for people to sit on. No matter how expensive the stool is, it is used to cushion people's buttocks. If you can't even support your buttocks, it can only be used as firewood."
After chatting for a while, Xu Yishan learned that of the thirty or so students in his class, nearly half of them had come to him in the past few years.
Among them, the squad leader came the most frequently, almost once or twice a year. Every time I come, there is only one purpose, which is to get Hu Jin to allocate funds to him.
Hu Jin smiled and said: "This kid thinks that the Ministry of Finance is run by my family, and he can just give the money. Fortunately, he is still a deputy secretary-general. Isn't this embarrassing for me?"
Xu Yishan asked cautiously: "Have you allocated any money to him?"
Hu Jin nodded and said: "There have been some. But, let me tell you the truth, it is not a friendship between classmates, and it is not a grant for affection. It is that he has indeed received instructions from the leadership for some projects, which are in line with our requirements. funding criteria."
Xu Yishan also learned that Hu Jin was the only one who worked in Yanjing in the whole class. The other students are all in place. Most of them are in public institutions, and a few have entered politics, and it is said that they are doing well.
Hu Jin asked him: "Are you still working in the Water Conservancy Bureau?"
Xu Yishan shook his head and said, "A few months ago, I was transferred to Hongshan Town, Maoshan County to become the deputy mayor."
Hu Jin looked at him in amazement, and suddenly burst out laughing, pointing at Xu Yishan and saying, "You are in politics? Old Xu, aren't you trying to make me happy?"
The two of them are very familiar and know each other well. In the past, Xu Yishan never revealed to Hu Jin that he wanted to enter politics.
Xu Yishan is a very sensible person. He knows that he has no background and no backer, and he has no door if he wants to go into politics.
His greatest wish is to apply the knowledge he has learned to practice. After all, there are not many people in China who are willing to devote themselves to the study of hydraulics like him.
Hydraulics is a very strange subject, nothing more than harnessing rivers and managing water conservancy facilities. It is hard to say how deep the knowledge is. It seems inappropriate to say that there is no scientific content.
"Do you know how I knew you worked in the Water Conservancy Bureau?" Hu Jin said with a smile: "I'll invite someone to come now, and you will understand." (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
