Cai Runnian said. "Cai Mao is right. When it comes to our province, Secretary Huang proposed to deepen the reform, focusing on the restructuring of enterprises and urban construction. This is not only in line with the development ideas of the central government, but also has the local development characteristics of Xijiang. Next year, our development strategy and ideas will remain the same, and we will further strengthen it. Relying on the development of the western region, we will build another 100 new towns. Zongfeng, you have a big task ahead of you. "
Bai Zongfeng said. "The Construction Department will follow the strategic deployment of the Provincial Party Committee and complete the tasks assigned to us. Please rest assured, Elder Cai."
Cai Runnian laughed. "It doesn't matter if I rest assured. You should let Secretary Huang rest assured. Haha."
Lu Yiwei and Zhang Zhiyuan could not get a word in edgewise while the others were talking about the overall situation. They could only sit there and listen quietly like primary school students.
After a while, Cai Runnian said. "Let me tell you a piece of news. In view of the slump in the coal market, the state may liberalize the unified purchase and sale policy in the next one or two years, abolish the unified pricing, and let the coal enterprises set the price independently. If this news is accurate, it is definitely good news for our province. It is bound to usher in a golden period of development! "
This news did not have much impact on the others, but it was very exciting for Zhang Zhiyuan and Lu Yiwei. If what Cai Runnian said was true, Nanyang County would get a free ride and enter the fast lane of development. The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.
After three rounds of drinking, the battle was fierce. The others were busy toasting Cai Runnian. Cai Runnian did not refuse and drank until he was drunk. Xu Caimao saw that it was about time and asked the waiter to help him to the west living room.
Then it was time to talk alone. Cai Runnian asked Xu Caimao to stay, and the others were free to do whatever they wanted. While Bai Zongfeng was in the toilet, Zhang Zhiyuan pulled Lu Yiwei and Deng Zhenyu to chat for a while.
Deng Zhenyu was not originally a member of their circle, but he had a good relationship with Bai Zongfeng, so he slowly joined. Zhang Zhiyuan's relationship with him was merely a drinking buddy, not a friendship. Therefore, Zhang Zhiyuan spoke cautiously and was particularly modest. Deng Zhenyu was a straightforward person. He didn't put on airs because of his rank, so he got along well with Zhang Zhiyuan.
After chatting for a while, Zhang Zhiyuan cleverly brought up the case of Lu Yiwei's brother-in-law, Xia Jinpeng. Lu Yiwei finally understood Zhang Zhiyuan's intention and was very grateful.
After hearing this, Deng Zhenyu frowned and asked, "How long will the court session take?"
Lu Yiwei quickly said, "Next Tuesday."
Deng Zhenyu didn't say much. He rolled up his sleeves and looked at his watch. He took out his phone from his pocket and dialed a number. While waiting for the other party to pick up the phone, Lu Yiwei's heart was beating wildly, afraid that the other party wouldn't pick up the phone. He had no idea who he was calling.
"Ming Dong, it's me." Deng Zhenyu crossed his legs and said casually, as if this kind of thing was not a problem for him at all.
After chatting for a while, Deng Zhenyu said, "There's this matter. I heard that there was a case in one of your counties and it was transferred to the court for trial. I know about this case, and I also have a general understanding of it. There's a person called Xia something Peng. Although he participated in the fight and caused a comrade to be injured, I hope that when you sentence him, you will have a responsible attitude towards the injured and the law, and grasp every step of the procedure. If he's really responsible, you must punish him severely. If he's not responsible, you can be lenient … "
After the phone call, Deng Zhenyu said, "I just talked to Zhao Ming Dong of the Intermediate People's Court in Bei Province. He said he would look into it."
"Thank you so much, Director Deng. You've helped me a lot. I'll pay you a visit next time if I have the chance, "Zhang Zhiyuan said excitedly.
"It's nothing, not worth mentioning," Deng Zhenyu said casually.
As he spoke, Zhang Zhiyuan stuffed a card into Deng Zhenyu's pocket. He did not expect Deng Zhenyu to have such a strong reaction and quickly stopped him, "Zhiyuan, what are you doing?"
Zhang Zhiyuan said with a smile, "It's almost New Year, and there's nothing to prepare. I'm asking you to buy some New Year's goods. I hope you'll accept it."
"Put it away!" Deng Zhenyu took it out and threw it to Zhang Zhiyuan. He said with a serious face, "We're old friends. Aren't you slapping me in the face by doing this? Don't blame me for getting angry if you keep this up. "
Zhang Zhiyuan did not let it go. He forced the card into Deng Zhenyu's pocket and held it tightly. "Director Deng, I really don't mean anything else. I'm just buying some candy for the kid as a token of my goodwill as an uncle."
At that moment, footsteps were heard in the courtyard. Zhang Zhiyuan quickly withdrew his hand. Deng Zhenyu sat there calmly and did not insist.
"Is Old Xu out yet?" Bai Zongfeng asked as soon as he entered.
Deng Zhenyu spread out his hands in response.
Bai Zongfeng had drunk quite a bit and inadvertently let the cat out of the bag. "Old Deng, if Old Xu goes to Eastern State this time, we'll have fewer chances to meet in the future!"
Deng Zhenyu said with a smile, "What's there to be afraid of? When the time comes, we'll go to his territory and have fun."
"There's a holiday villa in Eastern State. Thanks to Old Xu, we'll have a good place to go in the future. Haha."
From the conversation between the two, Lu Yiwei could tell that Xu Caimao was going to Eastern State to take charge of politics. No wonder Bai Zongfeng said that people were in high spirits when they came in. So that was the reason.
After a while, Xu Caimao came out. He walked in excitedly and said with a smile, "What were you guys whispering behind my back? I heard it all."
"It's good news!"
"Haha …"
"Zhenyu, Elder Cai is calling for you."
Deng Zhenyu sat up as if he had been electrocuted and ran out.
Xu Caimao was about to speak when the phone at his waist rang. It was probably an important call, so he walked out to answer it.
After Xu Caimao left, Bai Zongfeng said, "Zhiyuan, Elder Cai just said that we might build a hundred new towns next year. If you really want to implement it, I'll give you a target!"
"That's great!" Zhang Zhiyuan said hurriedly, "I'm planning to build a county next year. If I can get Director Bai's support, I'll be even more confident. Don't worry, I promise I won't embarrass you. "
Bai Zongfeng said, "Don't be so polite with me! Jin Zhu has repeatedly reminded me to help you. I only have this little power in my hands, so I'll help as much as I can. "
Zhang Zhiyuan added, "Director Bai, if you have the time, come to Nanyang for a visit. I'll definitely welcome you with open arms."
"If there's a chance, I'll definitely go!"
At this time, Deng Zhenyu walked in. Bai Zongfeng said impatiently, "Is it my turn?"
Deng Zhenyu did not reply. He turned to Lu Yiwei and said, "Elder Cai wants to see you."
Lu Yiwei did not expect that Cai Runnian would want to talk to him. He was very nervous. Bai Zongfeng's face was ashen, as if he was complaining about Lu Yiwei.
Lu Yiwei walked in anxiously.
"Yiwei, come and sit!" Cai Runnian was drunk, but his words were crisp and clear.
After Lu Yiwei sat down, Cai Runnian looked him up and down again. He nodded. "How are you doing in your county? What's your current position? "
"Pretty good. I'm now the deputy director of the organization department," Lu Yiwei replied respectfully.
"Oh." Cai Runnian leaned back on the sofa. "Your progress is a little slow, but you're doing well for the grassroots. What are your plans for the future? "
"I …" Lu Yiwei could not answer.
Cai Runnian saw that Lu Yiwei was silent, so he said, "Wenchuan is in Bei Zhou. Have you seen him?"
Lu Yiwei shook his head in embarrassment.
"That's where you're wrong." Cai Runnian said earnestly, "You have to set your sights further. You can't stay in that small place forever, can you? I'll give Wenchuan a heads up after that. While I'm still here, take the opportunity to move up. "
Lu Yiwei did not know how to thank him. He said emotionally, "Professor Cai, thank you for thinking about me. I'm really ashamed."
Cai Runnian said benevolently, "I can't let go of the burden when it comes to you. If you had listened to me back then, your future would be better than Wenchuan's. Let's not talk about this. You're still young and have a long way to go. Take it slow. "
After some idle chatter, Cai Runnian suddenly said, "Yiwei, I love the yellow pear wood paperweight you gave me last time. I play with it when I'm free. And your mistress, she wears the pendant you gave her all day long. She can't even bear to take it off. Haha, it's hard for you to have such thoughts. Thank you! "
Lu Yiwei didn't understand Cai Runnian's intentions in bringing up this matter for no reason. He hurriedly said, "Please don't say that. Respecting one's master and elders is a fine tradition since ancient times. It's only natural for a student to show filial piety. As long as you and mistress like it, I'm satisfied. "
Cai Runnian smiled. "Not bad. Looks like I didn't misjudge you. Not bad. By the way, I've always wanted to ask you. Where did you get this thing? "
Lu Yiwei's heart tightened. He thought there was a problem. He said anxiously, "Professor Cai, don't worry. It's definitely from a legitimate source. No one knows about it."
"No, no, no. That's not what I meant." Cai Runnian said, "I'm asking you. Do you have a hobby in this area, or do you have friends in this area?"
Lu Yiwei did not know what Cai Runnian was trying to do. He carefully said, "To be honest, I do have friends in this area." Black Circle was Cai Runnian's student. Lu Yiwei did not dare to expose it.
"Really?" Cai Runnian's eyes lit up. He moved closer to Lu Yiwei and whispered, "Yiwei, I have a favor to ask. Can you get your friend to get me a painting?"
Lu Yiwei finally understood Cai Runnian's intention. He looked at Cai Runnian's greedy eyes. He did not know whether he was happy or worried. "This … I'll try my best."
Cai Runnian said happily, "If you can get a painting from a master, that would be great. You can handle this. Don't worry. I'll pay for it. Okay?"
"Okay. I'll try." Lu Yiwei braced himself and agreed.
