Chapter 43 Village Officials
Xie Kun looked at his new office and was very proud. After two years, he finally returned to his original position. Moreover, he went to a higher level and became a secretary of the entire municipal government compound. The bitterness was not enough to be told to outsiders. Think about it, he seemed to be very different from Xie Kun who was teaching with Mayor Lu in the law class.
Xie Kun was very familiar with the eyes of his colleagues. Two years ago, when he was Mayor Lu's full-time secretary, he was almost lost in this kind of flattery, but now, the feeling of floatingness has left him.
Xie Kun looked at the office desks again, and then carefully retreated. He knew that he might not have used the office of the director of the General Office. Most of the time, his work space was the outer room of the mayor's office.
When Xie Kun left the office, he happened to meet Deputy Director Li who was walking towards him.
Deputy Director Li's smile and the title of "Xie Director" made Xie Kun somewhat uncomfortable. More than a year ago, Deputy Director Li's condemnation made him determined to leave the municipal government compound.
Xie Kun smiled in his heart, and greeted Director Li politely, without saying much.
A spacious and bright office, two pots of green wood plants in the corner are verdant.
Lu Zheng looked through the Wushan Daily. The news in the first page was that Huo Qinqun met with the head of a securities company from a southern municipality. The securities company was preparing to establish a stock account system and opened its first business office outside the municipality directly under the central government in Wushan. If this matter ended up, Wushan people would no longer have to travel thousands of miles to the southern municipality directly under the central government to buy and sell stocks.
Putting down the newspaper, Lu Zheng began to look through magazines such as "Singapore Finance" and "Friends of Youth" on his desk.
When Liu Shoucheng came in, he saw the magazine Lu Zheng was flipping through, especially when he saw the "New Youth" on Lu Zheng's desk, which had not been suspended, and his heart skipped a beat.
"Shoucheng, come and sit down." A smile appeared on Lu Zheng's face.
Liu Shoucheng is in charge of business, tourism, overseas Chinese affairs and other aspects.
Lu Zheng straightened the point: "That's right, I'm going to hold a mayor forum for urban development in Wushan. Some of the domestic invitations are invited, but the main thing is to invite mayors from friendly foreign cities to participate, learn from each other, communicate with each other, and listen to how mayors and governments in developed countries rule. Let's take the essence and remove the dross. In fact, I think there are many places worth learning from."
Liu Shoucheng hurriedly smiled and said, "This is a good idea."
Lu Zheng also said: "From the province to the central government, we all agree with our ideas and believe that this is also an opportunity to break the illusion of Western sanctions."
After hearing Lu Zheng's words, Liu Shoucheng calmed down and smiled and said, "Who should you have a range to invite??"
Lu Zheng said: "There is a general consideration, but whether they come or not depends on our efforts. I think this form of communication will better reflect the openness of our Wushan than investment promotion. If the forum is effective, it can continue to be carried out. This time it is the first, next the second and third sessions, forming a long-term mechanism, which can be regarded as free advertising for us Wushan around the world."
Liu Shoucheng nodded repeatedly.
Lu Zheng also said: "You should contact the United Front Workers and take advantage of the power of overseas Chinese. We should cast a wide net and strive to make this forum lively and strive to start in the second half of this year."
Liu Shoucheng knew Lu Zheng's style and quickly agreed, but thought in his heart that the province and the central government may not be consistent with your ideas. The above is hoping to break the sanctions and hold such a forum to international political influence, so you can leverage it.
In the afternoon, Lu Zheng accompanied the Yumen to Xigang District for a walk. At this time, the second phase of the financing of Beidouxing Group had started. Amid the buzzing of the machines, photos of Lu Zheng shaking hands with the construction workers in the port area were frozen one by one.
As the real founder of Xigang, looking at the ships passing through the blue waves and listening to the harsh whistle coming from time to time, Lu Zheng felt a lot of emotion.
After Huo Qinqun arrived in Wushan, Xigang was divided into another place from the Binhai New District and established a new Xigang District Management Committee, which was a department-level unit, and was directly managed by the city.
You Dashan, Secretary of the Party Working Committee of Xigang District and Director of the Management Committee, was mentioned by Huo Qinqun. He looks very smart and strong, and he is very skillful and well-informed when talking with him.
What Lu Zheng didn't expect was that he met an acquaintance in Xigang District, Liu Baojun, who is now the deputy director of the Xigang District Management Committee, but it seems that he is ranked relatively low. Standing behind the Yumen Department, he is also very indifferent to himself.
It is hard to sum up the relationship between Liu Baojun and himself. When he was the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau in Wushan, he was the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee. Later, he was ups and downs and he was repeatedly transferred. He had a lot of interactions with him. However, he was suspended because he was implicated in the HLC case. After he left, he successfully resolved the HLC lawsuit in the United States and became Huo Qinqun's achievement. However, he did not expect that Liu Baojun has been appointed now, and the incident and Huo Qinqun's idea of handling this case are unknown.
Lu Zheng did not show any abnormality throughout the afternoon, but when he returned to Wushan in the evening, he couldn't help but drink a few more drinks when attending the banquet of Vice Chairman of the CPPCC Chen Lingsi.
Lu Zheng knew that no matter what, when he saw Liu Baojun, he remembered a lot of past events, and he felt very uncomfortable.
When he returned to the big tree banyan cottage and was about to take a shower, the back door was gently knocked. Lu Zheng walked through the corridor and the living room and opened the door, but saw Bai Erqiang standing under the steps with a flattering smile.
"I saw that the lights are on. I guess you are back. I'll send the dumplings I just made to you or will you come to eat together? Xiao'e happened to be back."
Lu Zheng did not eat much food and had a little empty stomach. Now he also understands the grassroots officials who have problems with alcohol. When he arrives at his own position, he can take charge of the dinner party and don’t have to drink too much wine. In addition, his body is also quite different, but sometimes he still feels annoying.
"I'll go over. I haven't eaten the dumplings made at home for a long time. Second uncle, you're intent." Lu Zheng smiled.
Bai Erqiang immediately had a shiny face, and he was busy leading the way in front.
In the main hall of the bungalow in the South Courtyard, there were plates of dumplings, as well as side dishes, beer and white wine on the dining table. A middle-aged man in a white vest and grey pants had a red face. He was holding a glass of wine and was about to have a drink with Ren Xiaohong. It seemed that Ren Xiaohong was already angry, but he didn't dare to offend this person too much.
Seeing Bai Erqiang and Lu Zheng come in, the middle-aged man stopped disturbing Ren Xiaohong. He glanced at Lu Zheng with a squint and asked, "Erqiang, who is this?"
Bai Erqiang was a little troubled. Although Lu Zheng sometimes called his second uncle, he didn't dare to regard himself as an elder. Just when he didn't know how to introduce it, Bai Su'e walked out and said hello to Lu Zheng timidly: "Uncle."
Bai Erqiang quickly went downstairs and smiled and said, "What, it's the uncle of my two children. They grew up with their uncle when they were young." He also introduced the middle-aged man to Lu Zheng and said, "Director Ma of Dashurong Village Committee."
Director Ma seemed to have been imposed with magic, staring at Bai Su'e's little body and couldn't take it back. Indeed, Bai Su'e was wearing a snow-white elastic princess shirt, wrapped in her delicate figure, and a string of cute ornaments hanging on her pink neck. The thin cotton socks with black and white zebra pattern tightly wrapped around her slender legs. She was invincible and beautiful, and also had a tender and sexy temptation. Has Director Ma ever seen such a beautiful girl that only seems to be available in cartoons?
Director Ma spent most of his life facing the loess and backs on the sky. In the past two years, the rapid development of Wushan has benefited from him. As the indigenous village chief, he not only made a fortune, but also had resources and power that ordinary people could not imagine. But after all, he was still the kind of farmer who had never left Wushan and had never seen the world.
When Bai Erqiang told Bai Su'e to "called uncle" with Director Ma, Bai Su'e ignored Director Ma at all, but moved a small stool and sat next to Lu Zheng.
Since the separation in southern Yunnan, Bai Su'e hasn't seen Lu Zheng, and she has been very scared. She wondered if her uncle would blame her. If she doesn't want to see her in the future, she is full of these thoughts. How could she pay attention to Director Ma's not Director Ma? Moreover, after sitting down, she suddenly noticed Director Ma's lustful eyes. Bai Su'e immediately felt that this old farmer was so annoying and was even more lazy to pay attention to him.
Bai Erqiang smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Xiao E, you've been flying for a few days. I've just rested and knew you didn't like dumplings, so I didn't call you." He turned to Director Ma and smiled: "Xiao E is a flight attendant. She always flew outside. She rarely comes back and doesn't like to go out for a walk. You haven't seen her before, right?"
Director Ma was stunned. Bai Erqiang opened a small supermarket here and was very familiar with the villagers who still lived here. He always heard Bai Erqiang brag about his daughter. He was a genius from a professional school and was studying for a graduate student abroad. His niece was a flight attendant.
However, the villagers always listen to jokes and often say after dinner. No wonder our big banyan is gone, because Bai Erqiang is here.
But now, looking at this cute beautiful girl who seemed to come out of the fairy tale world, Director Ma had to believe it, but his niece looked too young, sixteen or seventeen? She was just a flight attendant. She looked tender and small, which was really painful.
"Do you still drink some?" Bai Erqiang picked up the wine bottle diligently.
Lu Zheng covered the wine glass with his hands and said, "Don't drink it anymore, try a few dumplings."
After dinner, Director Ma gradually became unhappy. When he came in from Lu Zheng, the atmosphere in the room changed. Bai Erqiang had always been flattering him, but now he just revolved around this person. Sometimes he talked about a topic, and Bai Erqiang responded casually, and then he went to please that person again.
"Xiaohong, I want me to say, it's dangerous for your kindergarten to go on like this." Director Ma looked earnest.
Ren Xiaohong was stunned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Director Ma shook his head and picked up the wine glass to drink, as if he was embarrassed.
Bai Erqiang was also attracted by his topic and said, "Brother Ma, just say it clearly if you have something to do."
Director Ma said: "At the beginning, when our village signed an agreement with the people who rented this land, the purpose of this land was agricultural land, but look, now you have built a kindergarten, which is commercial land. It is illegal to change the land use without authorization. Moreover, the people who rented this land were looking for villagers in our village to come forward, which was nominally rented by villagers. Otherwise, outsiders would not be able to rent it out. But now, these things are clear. Some people always ask me to say, "I will try my best to maintain it now, but I am afraid that if I will be exposed sooner or later, your kindergarten will not be able to be opened."
Bai Erqiang was stunned and smiled and said with a smile: "Brother Ma, please help me think of a solution?" After all, he and Ren Xiaohong both relied on this kindergarten for dinner, and he didn't know who built the kindergarten. He only knew that the director of a police station in the city who helped him run the supermarket was the director of a police station in the city, who took good care of him. He said that it was his daughter's sister Yu's. The kindergarten seemed to be related to his daughter's sister Yu, and he didn't know who his daughter's sister Yu was. In short, the daughter now knows many noble people, and she deserves to be an international student.
Director Ma shook his head: "It's difficult to deal with, it's difficult to deal with."
Bai Erqiang wanted to say something else, Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Old Ma, you should be clear. After the city's unified planning, this land has long been transferred to the construction land. There is no problem with the land use procedures of the kindergarten. The applied educational construction land, the construction of the kindergarten and its living area, is legal in any aspect."
Bai Erqiang was stunned and then took a photo of his forehead. He was anxious and didn't turn around. The yard in the north was connected to the bungalow where he lived. Xiao E had lived there before, but now Lu Zheng has lived in again. Can you say it has nothing to do with the kindergarten? Since it has something to do with him, what else can you do with Director Ma?
Director Ma's face became even more ugly. He stared at Lu Zheng for a few glances, put down his chopsticks, and said, "I remember that there is something else at home, so I'm leaving." He stood up and walked out.
Seeing Director Ma lose his temper, Bai Erqiang hurriedly chased him out to see him off. After all, although Lu Zheng has a high status, he is not his backer, and he cannot care about his messy affairs. He opened a supermarket in Dashurong, but Director Ma's territory. If he offended this village chief, he would be full of troubles.
Lu Zheng laughed and said, "This man has a big temper."
Ren Xiaohong also hated Village Chief Ma, and always came to chat with the young female teacher in the kindergarten. He was not serious at first glance, but the city developed a land grab, which made him a little bit of money, and he didn't know who he was, and he was not so disgusting.
But after hearing Lu Zheng's words, she didn't dare to answer.
Last time I heard Bai Erqiang say that the young man in front of me was the mayor, so she was careful. She always had to watch local news in Wushan when watching TV. Yesterday's news, the mayor really came out, but if he didn't read it carefully, he couldn't connect with the young man in front of me. The new mayor on TV looks very mature, but after preconceived thoughts, it really looks like a
However, Ren Xiaohong still didn't believe it, thinking about whether he was the mayor's younger brother or something? Can Bai Erqiang know the mayor? Can the mayor eat with his deskmate? It seems like he was dreaming.
Ren Xiaohong was not sure about it, but she didn't dare to say anything. She just laughed and said, "I'll serve you another plate of dumplings."
