Guo Jianye came in.
Lu Yiwei introduced. "Director Ren, this is Director Guo of the National People's Congress."
Although they were of the same rank, Guo Jianye was from the city. Guo Jianye took the initiative to greet him and sat down. Deng Zhongyuan looked at him from the corner of his eye. He could not figure out why Guo Jianye asked him to come.
After chatting for a while, Ren Jiaqi suggested to do a field survey. Lu Yiwei accompanied him and walked around the provincial road. During the survey, he kept nodding and did not express any substantive opinions.
They had lunch at the hotel and drank a lot. Even so, he did not reveal any information. After lunch, Ren Jiaqi asked him to a room alone. "Secretary Lu, what's your relationship with Director Zheng?"
Lu Yiwei was stunned and said honestly. "To be honest, I've only met Director Zheng once. I'm not familiar with him."
"Oh, that's not right. Is it that simple?"
"Yes, it's that simple."
Ren Jiaqi thought for a while and said. "Yesterday, when I was in a meeting at the Provincial Bureau, Director Zheng asked me to stay and explain the construction of Provincial Road 222 in Long 'an County. This road is not included in the annual plan. It's impossible to start construction on it. This year, we have plans to maintain Provincial Road 332. But Director Zheng said that we need to postpone the maintenance of this road and use the funds on Provincial Road 222 first. This is the first time such a sudden change of plans has happened. "
"Is that so? Then I'm really grateful to you and Director Zheng."
Ren Jiaqi waved his hand. "Don't thank me. I'm just doing my job. If you want to thank someone, thank Director Zheng. For you, he did not hesitate to use his connections from the Provincial Bureau to change the design. Do you know what that means? All the procedures are invalid and the budget has to be redone. This is a very difficult task, and it has to be done in a short period of time. It's all thanks to your connections. "
Lu Yiwei was also surprised that Zheng Yinxiang favored Long 'an County. Could it be that this person is doing this for the sake of Guo Jinzhu's reputation? It does not make sense. One had to know that the officialdom was the most realistic. Guo Jinzhu was already like that, so who would dare to have the slightest relationship with him? Could it be that Zhang Zhiyuan is helping him behind the scenes? That was possible. Although he was now the Director of the Legislative Affairs Office, he served Governor Zhao indirectly and mainly conducted some political research activities. With just a word from the governor, the subordinates all obeyed obediently.
It could also be Bai Zongfeng. His relationship with Governor Zhao was absolute. They were both officials of the capital and children of the same family. Even if they did not know each other before, perhaps their fathers had fought together. No matter what, no one had informed him in advance. He smiled apologetically and said, "It's not that we have strong connections, it's that Chief Zheng and you are concerned about the poor mountainous areas. The roads in Long 'an should indeed be repaired. The coal hauling vehicles were badly damaged, which caused a lot of trouble for the people in Long'an. Whatever you need us to do, just let us know. We promise to cooperate fully. "
Ren Jiaqi had drunk too much, so his mind was clear. Patting the sofa, he said, "I've already made the arrangements. Starting next week, our survey team will enter Chang 'an to conduct field surveys. We'll summarize the relevant data before reporting to the provincial bureau. After that, we'll finalize the maintenance plan. The maintenance fund this time is not much, only about 80 million yuan. If it is enough, it will be great. If it is not enough, I will need your help. After all, our budget is fixed and can't be increased. Do you understand? "
Lu Yiwei hurriedly nodded and said, "Don't worry about that. As long as you need it, we will do our best to cooperate."
"Alright. After that, go and see Chief Zheng and try to finalize this matter as soon as possible."
"Alright!"
To Lu Yiwei, this was a great thing. Initially, he was worried about how to fight for the funds. It was like a pie falling from the sky. If the roads could be repaired, it would definitely be a great political achievement. After sending Ren Jiaqi off, he called Guo Jianye to his office for a chat.
"Chief Guo, you've heard that the Municipal Highway Bureau is going to carry out maintenance on all the roads in our county. What do you think?"
"Of course it's a good thing. This road should have been repaired a long time ago. It has not been maintained for more than ten years. The people were complaining and complaining incessantly. Several County party committee secretaries came and shouted for the roads to be repaired. God knows how many times they ran to the city and the province, but they just could not get down. Now, you've introduced such a big project the moment you arrived. You've done something that the previous few failed to do. You're definitely the number one hero. "
Guo Jianye was not flattering. He was telling the truth. Many people had been shouting for the roads to be repaired for many years, but no one had put it into action. Lu Yiwei had solved such a big problem the moment he arrived. Guo Jianye could not help but admire this kid's ability.
Lu Yiwei was pleased to hear this and said. "Chief Guo, you're exaggerating. I've been paying attention to this project, but it's still in my imagination. I didn't expect it to be realized so soon. I still have to thank all the leaders for your cooperation and support. I'm thinking of letting you take charge of this project. What do you think? "
Guo Jianye couldn't believe it. After a long time, he said, "You want me to take responsibility?"
"Yes. Such a big project needs the main leader to take charge personally. You're the head of the County People's Congress. You've also been in charge of transportation in the past. In addition, you're highly respected in Long 'an. Everyone will listen to your orders. After all, road repair involves many aspects. Without a leader, you won't be able to control the situation. "
Guo Jianye quickly declined. "Thank you, Secretary Lu, for thinking so highly of me. But I'm not suitable. First of all, this is a government project. If I do the government's work, it's inevitable that people will talk behind my back. Besides, why would they want me to do it? Moreover, I'm old and can't do it anymore. It's better to let the younger generation do it. "
Lu Yiwei could tell that Guo Jianye was declining. Who wouldn't be jealous of such a big project? Every place with profits will be swarmed by flies. Everyone wants a piece of the pie. It's just a matter of how much. Liu Zhankui will surely argue and let Deng Zhongyuan take charge. Guo Jianye was worried about Deng Zhongyuan. Instead of letting Deng Zhongyuan take charge, Guo Jianye might as well attract the other party's forces to restrain Deng Zhongyuan. "You don't have to decline. This project has to be done by you. Just treat it as helping them out and leaving a strong mark on Long An City. It can also be considered as drawing a perfect end to your official career."
Guo Jianye declined several times. In the end, he frowned and pretended to agree. "Since Secretary Lu trusts me so much, I'll bite the bullet and give it a try. But let me say this in advance. If I can't do it, quickly replace me. Don't delay the construction period because of me. In the end, I'll be the sinner of Long 'an's history. "
"Haha. I trust Director Guo. That's a deal. After that, we'll hold a joint meeting to clarify the responsibilities. In two days, we'll go to Provincial City to visit Chief Zheng. He's our County's hero. "
