The Pentium Era - South to North

"Brother Zhang, do you want it? If so, I will find a piece of land for you so that you can stay in Tonglu?" Xiao Xu asked Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen quickly said: "Thank you, thank you, I am not Wu Zhaohui, I am not that showy, and I have no need in this regard."

Zhang Chen felt funny in his heart. What he was thinking was, why do I need a villa? The villa in Taohuayuan is still empty and no one is staying there. He has never stayed in such a beautiful villa in the Sanya World Tropical Botanical Garden a few times.

Even in Yongcheng, Sun Jin had mentioned it to him many times, and Zhang Chen had never thought of returning to Yongcheng to build a villa. He was not Ye Qianyu, so he came to Tonglu to build a villa.

Ye Qianyu is a famous painter from Tonglu. Before his death, he would return to Tonglu from Beijing almost every year. After his death, the Tonglu County Government funded the construction of a Ye Qianyu Art Museum to display the works donated by Ye Qianyu to Tonglu County, as well as his own creations. There are also collections. Zhang Chen visited them twice.

Liu Ligan kept winking at Zhang Chen, but Zhang Chen didn't understand.

The sky outside is getting darker little by little, and the mountains, water, dark green, and green all sink into the boundless darkness. Even the birds in the woods, after the darkness falls, they look like human beings. They all returned home, it was noisy for a while, and then it became quiet.

The sound insulation effect of this kind of house made of moso bamboo is very poor. From the long house below, they heard the sounds of cups clinking and diners shouting, and they heard the same sound coming from several rooms away. The only sound was the box next to them, which was always quiet and empty.

Xiao Xu told them that the diners here all like the row of private rooms below, which is closer to the water, and the hotel next door has better business than this one, but I still like it here.

"Are you afraid of meeting someone you know?" Liu Ligan said, while Xiao Xu remained silent.

Indeed, many people who come to eat here will definitely know that Xiao Xu is the deputy county magistrate. Some people have even dealt with him. If you see the deputy county magistrate eating here, don't come in and toast him with a glass of wine. After you go out, , I bought the order for him without even leaving you a chance to refuse.

That's why he chose this hotel with relatively few people on the second floor, and it was at the end of the corridor. No one would pass by outside the window. He must have told the landlady that he liked peace and quiet, so the landlady didn't When the room is full, try not to place guests in the next room.

Zhang Chen felt that this official was really careful. He couldn't go back to his family in an upright manner, and he didn't dare to eat in an upright manner. Everyone thought that an official was very majestic, but they didn't know that many times an official , they all behave with their tail between their legs, just like Li Yong and Liu Chengcheng. To put it nicely, they are called to pay attention to their own image.

After the three of them finished eating, they walked up. Zhang Chen wanted to pay the bill. Xiao Xu said, "I've agreed to treat you, but you can't buy it even if you want to."

Zhang Chen told the proprietress to pay the bill. The proprietress looked at Xiao Xu behind him, shook her head and said no, I won't accept it, as the customer told me.

Zhang Chen and Liu Ligan understood that Xiao Xu must have sealed his mouth with the landlady. He was eating here and no one was allowed to pay for him.

Xiao Xu smiled on the side and asked: "Brother Zhang, how are you? Is it because even if you are rich, others won't buy your account?"

Zhang Chen shook his head helplessly.

After Xiao Xu paid the order, the landlady asked: "Should I ask for a driver?"

Xiao Xu is right.

The landlady walked to the door and called out: "Drive!"

Immediately, someone ran out from nowhere. This was the driver waiting nearby. He asked Zhang Chen where they were going, and Zhang Chen said Tonglu City.

"Fifty yuan," the driver said.

Zhang Chen said yes and handed him the car key. The driver pressed it and Zhang Chen's car lights came on in the parking lot. The driver walked quickly towards that direction, and Zhang Chen and the three of them followed. Let’s go, Liu Ligan asked Xiao Xu in a low voice:

"So careful? In fact, we can drive it ourselves."

"I can also drive." Xiao Xu said, "There is nothing I can do. If there is an accident, the impact will be bad."

There was a chauffeur in the car, and the three people's conversations became cautious. They had a ride but not a ride. The main conversation was between Xiao Xu and Zhang Chen. He asked Zhang Chen something that he couldn't fully understand when he was watching the video. Zhang Chen answered the questions for understanding one by one.

These are very security questions.

Xiao Xu lived in the county government hotel. The three of them got off the car at the hotel gate. Xiao Xu led them, walked a few steps to the side, and then stopped.

Zhang Chen and Liu Ligan are staying at the Kaiyuan Mingdu Hotel in Tonglu not far away. They will leave Tonglu for Yongcheng early tomorrow morning because Liu Ligan has made an appointment with the executive deputy mayor of Yongcheng. The deputy mayor will tomorrow afternoon. He was going on a business trip, so he and Liu Ligan agreed to meet at nine o'clock.

"You go ahead. I will say hello to several departments here. Brother Liu, you can come and go through the formalities when you return. We in Tonglu welcome you as 'people's tourism'."

During the meal, Liu Ligan told Xiao Xu their plans and itinerary. Xiao Xu knew that they would rush to Yongcheng early tomorrow morning.

The two said goodbye to Xiao Xu, got in the car again, and asked the driver to take them to Kaiyuan Mingdu Hotel.

When they arrived at Kaiyuan Mingdu Hotel, the two of them completed the check-in procedures. They did not go upstairs immediately because it was still early. They went to the lobby bar on the first floor to drink tea and found a secluded corner to sit down. Liu Ligan said:

"You guy, why are you so ignorant of appreciation? People have good intentions, but you refuse them with just one sentence, and you don't even know how to act."

"What's wrong with me?" Zhang Chen asked.

"Xiao Xu asked you earlier if I wanted to buy you a piece of land in Tonglu, but you refused right away. Do you know how kind this is and how much face they give you?" Liu Ligan said, "I can see that. He really wants to make friends with you, don’t get me wrong, there’s no other intention, he just admires you as Professor Zhang.”

"I'm going to Tonglu to build a villa?" Zhang Chen said, "Am I out of my mind? I've got nothing left to offer to Zhang Xiangbei and Xiangnan. They don't like it, so I still want it. Come here to build a villa to raise mosquitoes? I'm not Wu Zhaohui, and I'm not that cool. Hey, that's not right. How come it's normal to give you land, but it's a big honor to give me land?"

"Are you cheating?" Liu Ligan even spoke in Hainanese. "Can these two pieces of land be the same? My piece of land was not given to me by Xiao Xu, but by Wu Zhaohui. Wu Zhaohui is a well-known person in Tonglu in other places. Entrepreneur, he wants to return to Tonglu. Everyone in Tonglu will definitely welcome him. The procedures for the land have been settled long ago. Xiao Xu is just doing a favor and showing me the door.

"Besides, I'm here to build a B\u0026B and a company is here to invest. I'm here to attract investment, not to build a private villa."

"What if I want it?" Zhang Chen asked.

"Then he really wants to help you from the beginning. This is a risk for him. Didn't you see how careful he was in Tonglu?" Liu Ligan said.

"This is a big deal. When I return to Yongcheng, Sun Jin and the secretary and mayor of Yongcheng also welcome me. I want to find a piece of land. It shouldn't be too simple." Zhang Chen said.

Liu Ligan shook his head: "It's unreasonable. Whether it's you, me or Tan Shuzhen, we are in Yongcheng just like Wu Zhaohui is in Tonglu. We are also the most famous entrepreneurs in Yongcheng outside. Let When we go back, this is called attracting local entrepreneurs who are abroad to return to their hometown. This is called bringing the phoenix back to its nest. It is a political achievement. Do you understand? What's going on when you go to Tonglu?"

Liu Ligan's words left Zhang Chen speechless. Liu Ligan continued:

"Wu Zhaohui is right. People at the local level will not offend cadres like Xiao Xu and others, but you know, what is the most important thing for them when they get to the local level?"

"Of course it's about making achievements at work." Zhang Chen said.

"Wrong, the most important thing is not to cause trouble. If he gets through it safely, he can leave Tonglu and return to Hangzhou. If there is any trouble here, he may not be able to go back. Even if he goes back, he will be demoted. No The most important thing he has to do is not to offend anyone if he makes trouble. As for his achievements, he can embellish them on the materials.

"The interests of a place are intertwined. If you want to achieve great results here, you will definitely touch other people's cheese, offend other people's interests, and offend others. Then you will die without a burial place, superior. The organizational department sent people to inspect your performance during your assignment, and there were a lot of problems reported, all of which made you shake your head.

"Land is such a scarce resource now. No matter how big or small it is, there are many people watching it. If he gives it to you, he will offend other people who want it. Do you understand? It's better for you to just say, 'Pop' ’ In an instant, someone’s hot face turned into a cold butt.”

Liu Ligan was nagging, but Zhang Chen finally understood. He felt that what Liu Ligan said was reasonable. Xiao Xu was indeed very cautious, and it was indeed a great kindness for him to offer to help him. He should I want to act for a while, but how?

"Then please teach me, what should I say?" Zhang Chen said angrily.

Liu Ligan glared at him and cursed: "Are you a pig? Of course you should pretend to be very happy, and then praise Tonglu greatly. Finally, after thinking about it, he told Xiao Xu that it was better to No, it won’t affect you well.”

Zhang Chen laughed loudly and cursed: "This is too fucking fake."

"What are you afraid of? He sold you the favor and you sold it back. In this way, he still owes you a favor. Do you understand? There are still people in this world who think there are too many favors? There are only half-brained and stupid pigs like you." Liu Ligan cursed, "Come on, tell me how you became Professor Zhang."

Zhang Chen proudly told Liu Ligan about his glorious achievements in those years, and Liu Ligan shouted:

"I'll go. I didn't expect that you would achieve such a big name and be so successful while I was away. Have you fulfilled your promise?"

"Of course." Zhang Chen said, "When I was working on the logistics base, there were many projects of yours, Tan Shuzhen's. Whenever I went to the place, I would encounter scenes like today."

"Then why don't you keep it up? Also, what happened to Qingtai Street that Xiao Xu mentioned earlier?" Liu Ligan asked.

Zhang Chen told him about the speech he gave about Chengzhan Railway Station and Qingtai Street, as well as the call Li Yong made to him.

Liu Ligan nodded and said:

"Fortunately, Li Yong stopped you from the cliff. Otherwise, you, stupid pig, would have been close to death. You don't even know whether you would be able to sit here and drink tea. Is there anyone as stupid as you? In order to please netizens who are stupid, Go offend the big guy who holds the power of life and death. If others didn't know that you and Li Yong were brothers, you would have been dealt with long ago. You really thought the dawn here was quiet."
