The Story of Qingfeng Village

Chapter 54 Sudden News

At the same time, Liu Jianguo, who was far away in Ningcheng, also suffered from insomnia.

Because just this afternoon, he heard a piece of news.

After get off work, I walked to the gate and planned to ride a shared bicycle to the Xinyuan Teahouse in the park to meet some classmates.

It's been a few days, why hasn't Zhu Xia replied?
At that time, I gave Secretary Xiao my phone number and WeChat group number.

Just as I took out my phone to scan the QR code, I heard a voice behind me: "Old Liu."

Liu Jianguo looked back and saw that it was Luo Qian, the head of the finance section, who was driving a car and stopped beside him to greet him.

Liu Jianguo: "Hey, it's Chief Luo. Why are you here? Haven't you come home yet?"

Luo Qian's home is in Hedong New District, and he doesn't live in a unit's house.

When he came, the unit's welfare housing had already ended.

Because his wife worked in a department of the Hedong New District, they bought the house in the Hedong New District. Liu Jianguo visited it during the housewarming. It was a beautiful neighborhood, but it felt deserted and less lively than the old town.

Luo Qian drove to work every day, and drove back after work. Except for sometimes meeting at work, it was rare to see Liu Jianguo face to face after get off work.

"Old Liu, I've said it many times, call me Xiao Luo."

Liu Jianguo smiled and said nothing.

He was being polite, but he wouldn't really just call him Ronaldinho.

Luo Qian: "I'm here to wait for you. Why do you have something to go out?"

Luo Qian knew that Liu Jianguo lived in the dormitory next door, and he was usually just a few steps away, so there was no need to ride a bicycle, since he obviously wanted to go out.

Liu Jianguo: "It's okay, it's okay, just go out for a walk, and cycling after work after sitting for a long time is also a kind of exercise."

Liu Jianguo said with a laugh.

Luo Qian: "If it's okay, you can get in the car. I have something to tell you."

Luo Qian opened the car door, and when Liu Jianguo got into the car, he started the car and drove forward.

Luo Qian didn't speak, and Liu Jianguo didn't ask.

He was thinking, what does Luo Qian want from him?

If it's official business, why didn't you say it in the unit?One phone call away.

If it was a personal matter, he and Luo Qian had nothing to do in private. Although Luo Qian was very warm to him when they met, Liu Jianguo thought it was just a kind of politeness.

He didn't think that he had just said a few words for Luo Qian back then, and he just put on the airs of a senior.

After all, the current Luo Qian is not the young boy he was back then.

But the last time the classmate rented a house and opened a restaurant, I have to thank him.

I want to invite Luo Qian out for a meal and send him some good tea to express my gratitude.

For this reason, Liu Jianguo went to find Luo Qian, and when he started talking, Luo Qian interrupted him.

"Old Liu, is it still necessary between you and me? Besides, it's a matter of business, and I didn't help much. Renting it to your classmate is renting it, and renting it to others is also renting it. Don't mention this matter."

Liu Jianguo stopped talking.

After that, they didn't have much contact with each other. Why did they suddenly find themselves today?

It's not a business matter, could it be a private matter?
What private matter does he have to look for himself, and he is waiting at the door.

Liu Jianguo felt that it was better for him to find anyone than himself. Both Luo Qian and his wife were capable people who knew how to manage and handle affairs. What need could there be of him?
There is nothing to use myself.

While thinking wildly, Luo Qian drove the car onto the road in Xishan Park.

The winding mountain road winds up, the mountains are lush with trees and vegetation, and it is very quiet.

On the road, I only occasionally saw some people walking down the mountain.

After driving for a while, I stopped at a parking lot on the side of the road.

Here is halfway up the mountain.

Luo Qian said: "Old Liu, let's get out of the car and go for a walk, how about?"

Liu Jianguo: "Okay."

Get out of the car first.

Luo Qian followed down.

"The air on the mountain is so good, Lao Liu, you should come here often. I haven't been here yet after the park is repaired."

Liu Jianguo: "I have been running on this western hill since I was a child. At that time, this was the battlefield for us small children. Haha, it was also our paradise."

The two walked along the tourist plank road while chatting.

Liu Jianguo: "Now that it's planned and built, it's a leisure paradise for the people of Ningcheng. Because of this western mountain, Ningcheng's ecological environment and air are so good. I have to run around the park from home every morning."

Luo Qian: "I envy you."

Liu Jianguo: "What envy, don't you have a wetland park in the Hedong New District? The scenery is not inferior to Xishan."

Luo Qian: "Yes, Ningcheng has changed a lot these years. The city is developing so fast that I can't keep track of it.

I remember when I first came to Ningcheng, I was a shy young man who didn't understand anything..."

Liu Jianguo: "Now you have become a backbone. Chief Luo, you are very capable."

Luo Qian: "It all depends on the support of you seniors."

Liu Jianguo: "That is inseparable from your efforts."

Luo Qian: "I still remember the first meal when you invited me to your house when I first came here. The crispy pork slices you made for me were so fragrant, and I still savor the taste."

Liu Jianguo laughed: "You still remember, but I forgot."

Luo Qian: "I remember, why don't I remember? At that time, I was just assigned to Ningcheng, and I was not familiar with the place. If you hadn't proposed to speak first, I would not have stayed in the bureau."

Liu Jianguo: "Your talent is obvious to all, everyone is optimistic about you..."

"Hehe, Old Liu...Only you think so...Forget it, let's not talk about that, anyway, I still have to thank you."

The two talked while walking, and slowly climbed to the top of the mountain.

From the top of the mountain, you can have a panoramic view of Ningcheng below.

The Quhe River surrounds the West Mountain like a belt.

On the other side of the river is the old town.

A high-rise building rose from the ground.

Beyond that is the broad Riverside.

Then there is Jiang Zhongdao looming.

On the other side of the riverside is the Hedong New District.

The construction of Hedong New District is faster than that of the old city

……

Luo Qian: "Ningcheng's development is very fast...infrastructure, public facilities...environmental protection...all have made great achievements, making Ningcheng the back garden of the provincial capital...people living here are happy of……"

Liu Jianguo didn't answer. He silently looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar city below. This was his hometown, the place where he was born, grew up, and lived... There are joys, sweet memories, and painful memories...

Luo Qian's voice rang beside his ears: Old Liu, if you were asked to leave here for a few years, would you be willing? "

Liu Jianguo turned to look at Luo Qian, wondering what he was talking about?
"leave?"

Luo Qian: "The bureau will send poverty alleviation cadres to remote areas."

Liu Jianguo: "What does this have to do with me? Oh... I see, it can't be you, right? Are you going to be promoted?"

There have also been precedents in the past when cadres were sent down to exercise. They went down for a period of time, and then they were promoted when they came back.

But all of these have nothing to do with Liu Jianguo. He has long since lost his room for improvement, so he should just stay in the position of deputy section chief until he retires.

Luo Qian: "It's not me.

...I hear there's a spot in the bureau...maybe you. "
