Peng Zhirong smiled and said, "You officials are always thinking about this. Your methods are always changing, making it impossible for us businessmen to guard against it. I'm a businessman, and I want to maximize my profits. Since Brother Lu asked me to help, I also have a request. After this is over, you don't owe me anything, and I don't owe you anything either. We're even. "
Lu Yiwei did not expect Peng Zhirong to do this. It was said that Peng Zhirong was sinister and cunning. Today, it seemed that this businessman should not be underestimated. Lu Yiwei carefully said, "Boss Peng, please say it. If it is within my capabilities, I will definitely help."
Peng Zhirong stood up and walked to the window. He pointed at a piece of coal and said, "Brother Lu, I'll tell you the truth. Xikou coal mine is like my child. I watched it grow up day by day. If I really had to abandon it, I would definitely be reluctant. I was just complaining to you just now."
"The impact of this financial crisis on energy-based companies is not too big.
However, it also reminded me that I wouldn't go far if I relied on a single mode of development. I predict that the international market will pick up next year, and I want to open another coke plant. "
Lu Yiwei understood and asked, "You want to occupy that piece of land?"
"Yes," Peng Zhirong said firmly.
Lu Yiwei was quick-witted. He could immediately relate it to the immediate interests of the people, so he said excitedly, "This is a good thing. You must need workers when you open a coke factory. In this way, you can relocate the villagers of Xikou Village on the spot. The village and the town will definitely support you."
"I'm still mulling over this idea. If the conditions allow it, I'll start immediately," Peng Zhirong said.
Lu Yiwei thought of another aspect. If he can use Peng Zhirong's coking factory as an excuse, then Zhou Sanmao's chances of becoming the village chief will increase. This is an unexpected gain. He said: "It is up to you to decide whether the land will work or not. If you can support Zhou Sanmao to become the village chief, then let nature take its course."
"Haha … You, Brother Lu." Peng Zhirong laughed heartily. The two of them had a tacit understanding.
Peng Zhirong looked at the watch in his hand and hurriedly said, "Look, we've been chatting for almost half an hour. I have to hurry. This matter is beneficial to both sides. If you need me to do anything, just let me know when the time comes. "With that, he walked to the table to pack up his things.
"Since Mr. Peng is busy, I won't bother you anymore. I'll ask Li Haidong to send the materials to you tomorrow night. We'll talk about it later, okay?" Lu Yiwei said.
"Alright, alright. I'll leave it to you then." After Peng Zhirong finished speaking, he took out a Chunghwa cigarette from his drawer and stuffed it into Lu Yiwei's hand. "I don't have much. Here's a token of my appreciation. I know that you guys have cigarettes in your hands all the time, and your mouths are full of blisters. It must have been hard on you. "
Lu Yiwei didn't refuse. He shook Peng Zhirong's hand and got up to leave.
After exiting the main door, Lu Yiwei threw the Chunghwa cigarette that Peng Zhirong gave to Li Haidong and said, "Take it. You're going to be the village chief. Keep it on your body to keep up appearances."
Li Haidong said gratefully, "Brother Lu, I, Li Ergou, will remember your kindness to me for the rest of my life. If there's a day when you need me to work for you, I'll go through fire and water without hesitation."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lu Yiwei pretended to be angry. However, Li Haidong's attitude made him very happy. At least it meant that the money and feelings he spent on him all these years weren't in vain. He was still a loyal person.
"Oh yeah, don't talk about you being the village chief. If people think that I'm interfering in the election, it's a serious violation of the election law." Lu Yiwei warned.
Li Haidong said, "Brother Lu, don't worry. I know what's important and what's not."
Lu Yiwei nodded and talked about another matter, "Do you know anyone in Xikou Village? Those who are close to each other. "
"Yes, Ma Sandan, Ma Siyan, and Lame Tian are on good terms with me." Li Haidong said.
"How's their reputation in the village?" Lu Yiwei asked.
"It's okay. Brother Lu, you also know that I used to be a hooligan. The people I know are like that. The people I'm talking about are people who are greedy for money. They dare to do anything with money. "Li Haidong described.
Lu Yiwei patted the table and said, "Okay, I'm afraid that they don't have hobbies. Everything is easy with love. Anything that can be solved with money is not a problem. Let's invite them out for a meal some other day. If you say so … "
If Xikou Village was an undercurrent, then Beihe Village was doing it for real. Especially Guo Kaisheng, his words and actions were very high-profile. He mobilized his friends and relatives to go to the village to get votes.
The current village chief, Li Hengsheng, immediately panicked when he learned that Guo Kaisheng was going to participate in the election. It was like throwing an egg against a rock with his own power. The villagers nowadays were not like before. As long as the chief gave the order, the whole family would respond immediately. Nowadays, the villagers' awareness was higher than before. They were no longer blindly loyal. Instead, they valued more practical things. After all, faith was not food. Only real money was more attractive to them.
Through Guo Kaisheng's warm-up, it seemed that there were more people calling for him to be the village chief of Beihe Village. This made him very excited. In order to smoothly take over as the village chief, Guo Kaisheng called the party secretary, Wei Guoqiang, and they went to Xianyue Hall in Dongzhou City.
Judging from the name, Xianyue Hall was a Taoist temple. In fact, it was like a holiday resort, a place of leisure and entertainment. However, unlike the holiday resort, Xianyue Hall paid more attention to health.
The concept of health was relatively broad. It generally referred to maintenance, nursing, and nourishing one's life. It was based on the principles of harmonizing Yin and Yang, harmonizing Qi and blood, and protecting one's spirit. It used many methods such as regulating the mind, guiding the breathing, regulating the four seasons, nourishing food, medicine, abstinence, and fasting to achieve the goal of health and longevity. Health originated from the ancient people's need to resist the harsh natural environment, adjust one's physical strength, resist diseases, and prevent and cure diseases. Health was an organic part of Chinese traditional culture. Health was the result of the ancient people's long-term life experience.
Most of the people who came here to spend money were old people who cherished their lives. From this, it could be seen that going to the holiday resort was to indulge in lust, while going to Xianyue Hall was to eliminate lust. But was that really the case?
