"Speaking of which, I'd like to ask you something. Do you know any good old Chinese medicine practitioners?" He Jian asked.
Lu Yiwei was baffled and asked, "Old TCM doctor? I'm not sure about that. What's wrong? "
He Jian revealed Xiao Zhiliang's privacy once more. "Sigh! Secretary Xiao has been under a lot of pressure in the past two years, and he's not as good as he wants. He's excited to see a woman, but he can't bring himself to do it. I've looked for famous physicians all over the country, but they're all useless. If you have any friends in this field, you have to introduce them to me. "
Lu Yiwei nearly stepped on the wrong pedal. He turned around and asked, "Is it still the same?"
"That's right." He Jian realized that he had let the cat out of the bag, so he immediately said, "Yiwei, you're the only one I've told about this. Don't tell anyone else. If Secretary Xiao finds out, he'll chop me alive. "
"Do you think I'm that kind of person?" Lu Yiwei smiled.
"I don't think so." He Jian shook his head. "It's because you're an honest person that I'm willing to make friends with you. I even said a lot of things that shouldn't be said. I believe you."
"That settles it then." Lu Yiwei said, "You don't have to worry about that. I've also been a secretary before, so I know what to say and what not to say. As long as it's in my stomach, I won't say a word."
"That settles it then. Alright, we're all brothers, so I have to believe you." He Jian patted his shoulder.
He Jian continued, "I don't know why, but ever since I met you, I've felt that you're a reliable person. Otherwise, I wouldn't have helped you. After interacting with him for a few times, Zhang Xuan realized that he was indeed loyal. I've always been straightforward. If I'm good, then I'm good. If I'm bad, then I'm bad. "
Lu Yiwei turned around and smiled. "Don't you think that our personalities are similar? It's just that I'm not good at expressing myself. "
"Similar! Indeed!" He Jian added, "However, you are too cautious in your words and actions. What are you afraid of? If that loser dares to go against you, I will be the first to chop him up!"
Lu Yiwei sighed, "I'm different from you. If I'm not careful with my words, I'll definitely become someone's target."
"That's true." He Jian agreed with Lu Yiwei's point of view. "Don't worry. As long as Secretary Xiao is here, no one will dare to do anything to you. I'll bring it up with Secretary Xiao and get you back to the county. "
Lu Yiwei had already seen He Jian's capabilities, so he naturally believed in him. He said, "Old brother, I appreciate your good intentions. I still have unfulfilled wishes in Shiwan Village, so I don't want to go back for the time being. Let's wait a little longer. "
"What wish do you have? It's all bullshit! "He Jian said," What's there to develop in a village the size of a palm? Let me tell you, Secretary Xiao's next step is to build a county town. Now, more than ten construction teams are on standby, and they will immediately come in once Secretary Xiao gives the order. "
"Oh? Really? "Lu Yiwei was curious about Xiao Zhiliang's next move after hearing about it.
"Isn't that so." He Jian said bluntly, "Didn't I tell you just now that Secretary Xiao went to Capital City? He seems to be discussing some business with the top planning and design institute in the country. He's preparing to do some regulations. I don't understand either."
"General regulations and detailed regulations?"
"Yes, that's the thing," He Jian said. "Once this thing comes out, the county town will be full of construction sites."
"Ah?" Lu Yiwei was very impressed with Xiao Zhiliang's boldness. He said, "Opening so many construction sites at once. How can the county have the money?"
"If they don't have the money, they can get a loan. Moreover, Secretary Xiao often deals with construction companies. They won't lose money on this kind of thing."
"Oh." Lu Yiwei seemed to be unable to follow the flow of things. Wasn't Xiao Zhiliang a little too impatient by spending so much the moment he arrived?
"That's why, don't just hide in the mountains all day. When you get to the county, ask Secretary Xiao to give you a few projects. Then, you can form your own construction team. You'll be able to get credit and make money. Why not?" He Jian said.
"This … let's talk about it later." Lu Yiwei was a little scared. Xiao Zhiliang was bold and took big steps. If he did well, it would be a great achievement. If he did poorly, he would end up like Su Qiming and be cursed by the future generations.
"Deal! Think about it. "He Jian said," I'll be leading two construction teams myself. When the time comes, if you're willing, we can work together! "
When they arrived at Beihe town, Lu Yiwei went straight to the industrial park. From afar, he saw Niu Fuyong standing in the crowd and cursing. Ever since he became the chairman of Xihe Coal Mine, Niu Fuyong had changed. He was not as carefree as he used to be. Instead, he was focused on the construction site and asked about the progress of every project. Originally, he was soft and tender. Now, he was as black as charcoal. No one would be able to find him if he was thrown into a pile of coal. He was also not particular about his clothes. Those who did not know him would think he was a labor contractor.
Lu Yiwei parked his car to the side and honked at Niu Fuyong. Niu Fuyong looked in the direction of the voice. When he saw Lu Yiwei sitting in the car, he grinned and ran over.
"Aiya! My Lu Standing Committee, you've changed for the better. "Niu Fuyong patted the car excitedly.
Lu Yiwei jumped out of the car and said, "I can't afford it. This is for Brother He Jian."
He Jian came down from the car and threw a cigarette to Niu Fuyong. "Brother, you are the chairman. Why are you acting like this?"
Niu Fuyong chuckled and said, "This bunch of bastards don't know anything. If I don't personally supervise and cut corners, all my money will go down the drain. Why are you guys here? "
He Jian said, "Go and change your clothes. Let's go out and have some fun."
"There's such a good thing?" Niu Fuyong's eyes lit up. "Wait for me. I'll go now."
The industrial park was starting to take shape. The magnificent office building was spectacular. The coking plant had all kinds of pipelines in the air. It was the style of a large enterprise. In order to build this industrial park, Niu Fuyong had asked the shareholders for more funds and took a lot of loans. His brother Batu had also invested a lot. Until now, he had invested close to 100 million RMB. But the returns were negligible. There were a few shareholders who wanted to withdraw their funds. Niu Fuyong was straightforward. Those who wanted to withdraw would pay the bill and leave. Three shareholders withdrew, leaving only Zhou Sanmao and Peng Zhirong.
Lu Yiwei felt sorry for Niu Fuyong. When he was in trouble, Lu Yiwei helped him without hesitation. But when Lu Yiwei needed money, Lu Yiwei went out to open a coal mine. Of course, this matter was hidden from Niu Fuyong. But sooner or later, Lu Yiwei will know. When the time comes, he doesn't know how to explain. But he believes that Niu Fuyong is not a narrow-minded person.
After a while, Niu Fuyong came out wearing a wrinkled T-shirt. He Jian couldn't stand it anymore. He took out a T-shirt from the trunk and threw it to Niu Fuyong. "Hurry up and change. If you go out like this, people will kick you out like you're a laborer."
"Hehe." Niu Fuyong giggled and changed into the T-shirt in front of Lu Yiwei.
"Where are we going?" Niu Fuyong asked.
"Nanzhou."
"That's great!" Niu Fuyong rubbed his hands in excitement.
As mentioned earlier, Nanzhou was a new city. Relying on its geographical advantage, it became the backyard of a neighboring province. In recent years, it has developed the real estate and entertainment industry. Its financial revenue has been rising, catching up to the number one city, Dongzhou. It has become another economic growth pole in Xijiang Province.
The entertainment industry in the city is especially developed. There are luxury hotels, bars, and entertainment venues everywhere. There are countless shopping malls. Xijiang Province calls it "Little Hong Kong".
Lu Yiwei had been here a few times. Each time he came, he had a different feeling. As a matter of fact, there was a big change this time. What used to be a field of crops has now been developed into a high-end residential area. Moreover, the road network was constantly expanding. There was no way to go. Compared to Nanzhou, the difference was like heaven and earth. If Nanzhou was a rapidly rising giant, then Nanzhou was still a baby in its swaddling clothes. It needed constant blood transfusions to maintain its livelihood.
The car stopped at a place called "Oriental International Hotel". He Jian coolly took out his phone and started to make a call.
"Come on! My friend has something to do. He said he'll come after he's done. Come, let's go in and have some coffee. "He opened his arms and hugged the two of them into the hotel.
When urbanization reached a certain level, it was easy to have serious homogenization. Lu Yiwei had been to many luxury hotels. At first, it was a novelty, but after a while, it was the same. They were all decorated in European style. Huge crystal lights flew down from the sky. The shiny marble floor cast shadows. There was nothing special about the place.
The second floor of the hotel was a cafe. They found a booth and sat down. Since it was noon, there were not many people drinking coffee. There was a piano on one side of the cafe. A handsome man in a tuxedo was playing the piano with his eyes closed.
"Sir, what would you like to drink?" A pretty waitress walked over and asked elegantly.
He Jian threw his sunglasses on the table, took the menu, and flipped through it. Niu Fuyong, on the other hand, stared at the waitress with wide eyes. Lu Yiwei saw this and pushed him. He whispered in his ear, "You're making the girl shy." Niu Fuyong grinned and said, "I haven't eaten meat in a long time. Meat smells good, haha."
"Give me two cups of freshly ground amber coffee and three Cuban cigars." He Jian closed the menu and handed it to the waitress. It was obvious that he was a frequent visitor to such places.
"Do you have tea? I'm not used to drinking that stuff. "Niu Fuyong complained to the heavens.
"I'm sorry sir, we don't have it here. If you don't like it, we do have juice. What do you think?"
"Ah, forget it. Coffee it is."
