However, Wentao holds a completely different view on this.

You know, he was a provincial-level official. How could he fall so easily? Even if he couldn't continue to gain a foothold in Bengang City, was he still worried about not being able to find another place to go?

The vision of these leading cadres in Bengang City is too narrow!

Perhaps some of them were indeed aware of this situation, but since Mayor Sun Yiguo was at the dinner table, they really did not dare to be too intimate or enthusiastic.

The reception banquet held at noon was so luxurious that it was probably not appropriate to describe it as its extravagance was simply astonishing.

From east to west, from south to north, the eight most famous cuisines of China are all on the stage, with a wide variety of dishes that are overwhelming.

Not only that, there are countless fresh seafood on the stage, the majestic king crabs from Europe, the lobsters from Australia, and the abalone are all on the table.

As for the alcoholic beverages, they are naturally not inferior, they are all real hard currency - Maozi!

Even someone like Wentao, who had experienced rebirth and participated in countless drinking parties, had never seen such a luxurious banquet configuration.

However, those leading cadres looked as if they were not surprised by all this, as if they were already used to it.

Even Minister Zhao Lei did not say a word and looked calm, as if he was already accustomed to such scenes.

If this scene happened in the future, a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee would dare to arrange the dishes in this way. I am afraid that the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection would rush over to inquire about the situation before dinner even starts!

This meal alone cost at least tens of thousands of yuan. I'm afraid that even if some towns in the future use a whole month's office funds, they may not be able to come up with such a sum.

The current atmosphere is really terrible!

Wen Tao frowned tightly. If he were the municipal party secretary, he would have lost his temper and flew into a rage.

However, it is not appropriate to interfere too much in such trivial matters at this moment. Wentao secretly made up his mind that when the time is right in the future, he will thoroughly rectify such bad malpractices.

At the table where Wentao was sitting, in addition to the Standing Committee member of the Municipal Party Committee and the Minister of Propaganda Tian Xinxin, Sun Yiguo actually arranged an extra female comrade.

The woman looked relatively young. After Sun Yiguo's introduction, Wentao learned that her name was Ye Ke and she was the deputy director of the office of Bengang Municipal Government.

Ye Ke is 28 years old and holds the rank of Section Chief. He is said to have been the deputy mayor of a township.

Later, during one of Sun Yiguo's field research, he transferred the deputy mayor directly to the municipal government as deputy director of the office.

I think everyone here knows who this deputy director of the office serves.

Ye Ke was born with a standard oval face, with a pair of big eyes that kept blinking, and big double eyelids that were as beautiful as if they were carefully carved.

She was wearing a pair of thick black leggings that showed off her curves, and her figure was graceful and swaying. In Wentao's opinion, this look was exactly what people would call an "Internet celebrity face."

At the banquet, Ye Ke was extremely active, frequently standing up to toast everyone.

Her affectionate eyes were always fixed on Minister Zhao Lei, emitting charming waves from time to time.

Not only that, she would also take advantage of the gaps to playfully cast a few seductive glances at Wentao.

Faced with such charming behavior, Wentao seemed relatively calm and composed, but Minister Zhao was not so composed. He was so excited by this beauty that his old face turned red in an instant.

The other leading cadres present also fully enjoyed the fragrance brought by the beautiful Ye.

Although they appear calm on the surface, they are already immersed in it deep down in their hearts, feeling this rare joy and comfort.

Of course, they all knew very well what the background and identity of the deputy director of the office was, so they only dared to secretly enjoy this moment of good time.

Although Tian Xinxin, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and Minister of Propaganda, had a smile on her face, Wentao saw a hint of disdain in her eyes. It seemed that her relationship with Mayor Sun was not as harmonious as the legend said.

"Xiao Ye, I specifically called you here today to keep Minister Zhao company. If the leader doesn't drink well, I'll have to replace you as the deputy director of the office!"

I have to say that Sun Yiguo is very good at dealing with people. He got such a beauty to liven up the atmosphere. Otherwise, it would be very awkward if it were just a group of old men like them.

"Mayor Sun, you are joking. How can a woman like me accompany Minister Zhao!" Ye Kejiao said with a smile.

After that, Ye Ke raised his glass and toasted Minister Zhao. Although Minister Zhao seemed a little embarrassed, he really liked Sun Yiguo's trick of finding a beautiful woman to accompany him for drinking, so he drank the two taels and a half of Maotai in one gulp.

In this lively drinking party, in addition to the highly-watched Ye Ke, there was another figure who frequently raised his glass to toast, and he was particularly eye-catching. This person was Zhang Aiguo, the deputy mayor of Bengang City.

He is not good-looking and has no particularly outstanding characteristics, but he has a catchphrase: "The leader does what he wants, I do it!"

Since the drinking party started, Wentao has been keeping an eye on the generous Deputy Mayor Zhang Aiguo.

He drank one glass after another in one gulp. In the blink of an eye, from the beginning of the drinking party to this moment, he had already finished six glasses of liquor in a row! His drinking capacity was truly amazing.

You know, in the officialdom, many deep friendships are often cultivated slowly over the course of a cup. And Zhang Aiguo is undoubtedly a capable general in Sun Yiguo's hands. No matter what occasion or opponent he faces, he can completely convince the opponent with his amazing drinking capacity alone.

Compared with Zhang Aiguo, Minister Zhao Lei, who also likes drinking, is not that great.

In this fierce "drinking war", Minister Zhao Lei gradually became overwhelmed. After a few rounds, he was drunk by Zhang Aiguo and became completely submissive.

Although he was still somewhat unwilling to accept it, he had no choice but to attend an important meeting of the Provincial Party Committee in the afternoon, so he really could not continue to fight.

In the end, Minister Zhao Lei had no choice but to get into the car shakily with the help of everyone.
