The candidate of the County party committee's secretary affected everyone's heart, including the County Head, Yang Derong. After knowing that he had no hope at all, his heart refused to compromise, but what could he do? However, this personnel transfer was kept a secret very well. Even Mayor Lin couldn't find out anything about it. He didn't know if the other party really didn't know, or if they were keeping it a secret on purpose, making him restless and unable to focus on his work.
Dong Guoping, the director of the County party committee, didn't make it. He passed away before the next secretary of the County party committee arrived. As a senior figure in Nanyang County, although he didn't have many sincere friends when he was alive, most of the county's leaders and cadres spontaneously paid homage to this old Party member and cadre. His death caused many people to feel sorry for him. Just as everyone was talking about him, the new Secretary of the County party committee quietly arrived in Nanyang County.
The new secretary of the County party committee was really surprising. It had nothing to do with the previous speculation. It was enough to show that the Municipal Party Committee was very cautious about the candidate of the County party committee secretary. Xiao Zhiliang, the Secretary of the County party committee of Guchuan County, was transferred to Nanyang County as the Secretary of the County party committee. Wen Guowei, the Chief of the Cadre Section of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, was appointed as the Standing Committee of the County party committee of Nanyang County and the Deputy County Head.
Guchuan County was a purely agricultural county with a backward and poor economy. However, under the leadership of Xiao Zhiliang, the land market had been revitalized, and its comprehensive economic strength far surpassed that of Nanyang County, a coal-producing county. It could be said that he was a marketing expert. The city must have wanted him to change the face of Nanyang County.
Wen Guowei's arrival was somewhat unpredictable. However, after careful analysis, he realized that he had put in a lot of effort. The cadres of Nanyang County were loose and not united. Sending a group of cadres to stabilize the situation had a certain depth. In addition, it could be seen that the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Qin Xiuwen, also had a preference for people from the same system. He was neither radical nor arrogant. He was able to look at some problems rationally. More importantly, he was down-to-earth.
At the same time, Chu Yunchi, the director of the Municipal Cultural Bureau, was transferred to Guchuan County as the secretary of the County party committee. If that was the case, then the previous rumors were not groundless. It was just that the hat was pinned on the wrong place. Chu Yunchi being able to stage a comeback again made many people sigh with emotion.
After Xiao Zhiliang arrived in Nanyang County, he was not anxious or impatient. He sat calmly on Mount Tai and observed the changes, trying to find a breakthrough in economic growth. The first stop of his research was the Dong Hua Coal Mine.
After receiving the notice from the County party committee office, Lu Yiwei did not dare to delay and began to prepare for the investigation. Previously, because of the matter with Ma Linhui, he had met Xiao Zhiliang once. This person had a kind face and combed his hair back. He liked to wear Chinese tunic suits, and his leather shoes were always shiny. He habitually ran his fingers through his hair, which showed that he cared a lot about his image.
The first place that the new leader went to was definitely not out of impulse, but with a certain purpose. No one knew if it was because Ding Changhua, the boss of the Donghua Group, took the initiative to invite him, or if he valued the backer behind the coal company, but this move was of great significance to him.
According to the Deputy Director of the County party committee, Du Jiaming, Xiao Zhiliang's trip this time was only to Dong Hua Coal Mine and not to Shiwan Village. Of course, Lu Yiwei hoped that he could make a trip along the way. On one hand, he could familiarize himself with Xiao Zhiliang, and on the other hand, he could indirectly support his work. However, he was not familiar with Xiao Zhiliang, so how could he make such a seemingly simple request? He thought of Xiao Zhiliang's driver, He Jian.
After Xiao Zhiliang was transferred to Nanyang County, he brought two people with him. One was his secretary, and the other was his driver. Lu Yiwei and He Jian did not have a good relationship, but after a few interactions, they had a good impression of each other. When they first met, He Jian suggested that Lu Yiwei transfer his sister, He Min, to work. Lu Yiwei did not break his promise and was transferred from the village to the Finance Department. When Xia Jinpeng was locked up in the detention center, Lu Yiwei visited him twice, and both times were successful with He Jian's help.
He Jian was different from Zhang Zhiyuan's driver, Old Wei. He was not a stable person, and often interfered with government affairs under the guise of Xiao Zhiliang. In Guchuan County, he was jokingly called the "second in command." It was not that Xiao Zhiliang did not know how domineering He Jian was, but he rarely asked about it. He even took the initiative to support He Jian. From this, it could be seen that Xiao Zhiliang had tacitly approved of He Jian's actions.
When He Jian received Lu Yiwei's call, he said without hesitation, "Brother, the schedule for treating me to dinner these two days is full. I appreciate your kindness, but there's no such thing between us. Just let me know if there's anything you need."
Hearing this, Lu Yiwei was a little disappointed, but he was not willing to give up. He insisted, "Brother, I'm also someone who serves the leader. I know you're busy, but since you're here in Nanyang County, I'd be insensible if I don't take the initiative. You can balance your time and give me a chance. "
He Jian was a straightforward person, so he said, "Since you insist, then fine. I'll reject the others and have a gathering with you tonight."
"Aiya, that's great!" Lu Yiwei said happily, "Brother He Jian, I still have a presumptuous request. Can you invite Director Tang as well?"
The Director Meng that Lu Yiwei mentioned was Xiao Zhiliang's secretary, Tang Xiaonian. He Jian thought for a long time on the other side of the phone and said, "How about this, I'll ask him if he's free. If he is, I'll definitely invite him."
"Okay, then let's set it at Veterans Fishing Harbor. See you there."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yiwei felt a little disgusted. As a member of the County party committee Standing Committee, he actually humbled himself in front of a powerless driver. But what could he do? That was the reality. Zhang Zhiyuan had left and no one to rely on, so he should take the initiative to build a good relationship with Xiao Zhiliang.
Lu Yiwei wondered if he should ask others to accompany him, but after some consideration, he gave up the idea. He still couldn't figure out the other party's plan. If he made a fool of himself, it would not be worth it.
At night, Lu Yiwei arrived at Veterans Fishing Harbor early. With the increase of popularity, the business of Veterans Fishing Harbor was quite booming. The boss, Yang Jianguo, made a lot of money. Look, he bought a piece of land in the county, built a three-story bungalow, and bought a car. This was unimaginable in the past.
Everything came from opportunity. If it weren't for Lu Yiwei, Tian Chunqiu, the then secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, wouldn't have stayed in his small restaurant, and he wouldn't have achieved what he had today. Therefore, the boss, Yang Jianguo, was grateful to Lu Yiwei from the bottom of his heart. Lu Ling's wedding was held in his restaurant. When Yang Jianguo paid the bill, he said that he didn't want money. Because of this, Lu Yiwei almost fell out with him, but reluctantly accepted the money.
After seeing Lu Yiwei coming, Yang Jianguo put down everything at hand and accompanied him. For him, Lu Yiwei was his God of Fortune.
"Old Yang, Secretary Xiao's driver, He Jian, will come over tonight. Come in and have a toast." Lu Yiwei said.
Yang Jianguo had never been interested in politics before, but after dealing with government agencies, he became very sensitive to the trends in the county. He understood the intention of Lu Yiwei's arrangement, so he nodded and said, "Shall we arrange the dinner in the private room in the back?"
Lu Yiwei shook his head and said, "No need. Old Yang, remove that private room from today. "The private room at the back of the restaurant had always been reserved for Zhang Zhiyuan, and there was no need for it to exist after Zhang Zhiyuan left. If someone knew about it, there might be some rumors.
Yang Jianguo understood and didn't ask any more questions. "What's the standard for tonight?"
"The highest." Lu Yiwei decided to win He Jian over at all costs. "Bring out all the specialties of the restaurant. You don't have to worry about the alcohol. I'll prepare it myself."
Yang Jianguo said, "Mr. Lu, I got a batch of special alcohol from Maotai two days ago. Why don't we make this tonight?"
Lu Yiwei glanced at Yang Jianguo and nodded. "Alright, this is it."
While waiting for He Jian, Yang Jianguo chatted with Lu Yiwei. "Mr. Lu, I have an idea, and I need your opinion."
"Huh? Tell me about it. "
Yang Jianguo said, "This restaurant is pretty good. At least, you can't find a second restaurant like this in Nanyang County. But it's a market economy now, and there might be another restaurant like this in a few days. Furthermore, the consumption here is relatively average, and most of the customers are ordinary citizens. Sometimes, it's inconvenient for leaders to eat here. That's why I plan to open a more high-end restaurant. What do you think? "
Yang Jianguo was indeed business-minded, and he could read the minds of consumers. Lu Yiwei agreed, "That's a good idea. As you can see, the commercial building invested by Baitai Group will be completed by the end of the year. I heard that the other building will be built into a star-rated hotel. That will affect your restaurant. What kind of restaurant do you plan to open? "
Yang Jianguo said, "I just built a three-story building. I plan to turn it into a clubhouse, mainly for high-end customers. There will only be three private rooms inside, and some entertainment facilities. If the conditions allow, I will also build a wine cellar. "
Yang Jianguo's idea made Lu Yiwei's eyes lit up. High-class places like clubhouses were usually found in big cities, and it was impossible to survive in small places. After all, the flow of people was limited, and those who could afford it would definitely not spend it locally. It was a big risk. He was puzzled, "Why do you have such an idea?"
Yang Jianguo said with a smile, "To be honest, I went to many cities to investigate, and I feel that this is something new. We don't have it here, and it's worth a try."
"Have you considered the operating costs?"
"This …" Yang Jianguo said bluntly, "Mr. Lu, I want you to invest."
"What? You want me to invest? "Lu Yiwei was surprised.
"Yes!" Yang Jianguo said, "I've thought about it. It's impossible to open such a high-end clubhouse in Nanyang County without the government. So … don't worry, you don't need to spend a single cent to invest. You just have to wait for the year-end bonus."
