In the afternoon, Li Ermao drove a Peugeot over. Lu Yiwei asked Zhao Xiaokang to arrange accommodation for Li Ermao and settle the relevant paperwork.
As a temporary worker, there were not many complicated procedures. All Li Ermao had to do was to report his name to the higher-ups and wait for his pitiful monthly salary. Lu Yiwei was a loyal person and arranged for Pan Chengjun to pay Li Ermao 3000 RMB a month. It was enough for Li Ermao's daily needs.
Li Ermao took the car keys from Lu Tianming and went to the office to complain to Lu Yiwei. "Brother Yiwei, this is too much. Other County leaders drive Honda Accord, and only we drive a lousy Santana. I drove it just now, and it has been driving for almost 200,000 km. Also, the car is squeaking as if we are sitting on an engine. Why don't we use our own car? "
Lu Yiwei did not look up and continued to read the documents in his hands. "Just drive whatever car they gave you. What's with all this nonsense?"
"But …" Li Ermao tried to explain but was stopped by Lu Yiwei. "Ermao, we are not here to enjoy ourselves. The County's finances are tight, and it's not a big deal to put up with it. I'm warning you. Since you are here, you must keep a low profile. Don't say what you should not say, and don't do what you should not do. Even if someone asks you out for a meal or a drink, you must let me know. Do you hear me? "
"Oh. Got it." Li Ermao lowered his head.
"How's the coal mine?" Lu Yiwei asked.
Li Ermao replied. "It's good. Old Pan had gotten a few big orders, and we can't meet the demand even if we go all out. These few days, he is rushing to settle the paperwork to upgrade the mine. "
"Oh." Lu Yiwei put down his pen and sat up. "Old Pan didn't look for Xiao Yang?"
"He did. These few days, Xiao Yang has been leading all the units. It should not be a big problem. But it also involves the approval from the Provincial Land Bureau. This will take some time. "
Lu Yiwei took out his phone and called Pan Chengjun to ask about the situation.
Just like what Li Ermao said, all the documents had been submitted to the Provincial Department, and now they are waiting for the approval. As for when it would be approved, it was still unknown. Many coal mines could only get approval after half a year or even a year, so they had to wait.
That was the truth. Lu Yiwei had gone through similar procedures in the past. The Provincial Government officials were all slow tempered. When you are anxious, they will not be anxious. They will wait until you are exhausted before the approval is issued. If you ask, there are plenty of reasons to answer. They said that they had to conduct an on-site investigation, conduct an expert review, convene a government meeting, and so on. Just for a chapter, they had to go through such complicated procedures. If he said it in a more subtle way, everything would be fine with Qian Dadi.
Lu Yiwei said, "When you're done, bring some money with you. You can't skimp on money."
"I've already bribed everyone, but they told me to go back and wait. I can't do anything about it," Pan Chengjun said helplessly.
"Oh." Lu Yiwei thought for a moment and said, "Alright, you don't have to worry about this. I'll handle it. Remember, you must do a good job of safety. Don't be careless. If anything happens, we will not be responsible. "Lu Yiwei reminded Pan Chengjun every time he spoke to him. Safety was too important. If Dong Xuebing was not careful, he would be back to square one.
After hanging up, Lu Yiwei remembered that Fan Chunfang had been assigned to the Ministry of Land and Resources. Should he ask her to help him? He thought for a while and gave up on this idea. She had just been assigned to the Ministry of Land and does not have the ability to speak to the leaders. Forget it. He should look for Zhang Zhiyuan. After all, Zhang Zhiyuan was in the Provincial Party Committee's office. His words were important.
As he was thinking, his phone rang.
"Hello, Secretary Lu. I am Guo Zhenbiao. I have reached Auspicious Tai Restaurant. I am waiting for you." Guo Zhenbiao said over the phone.
Lu Yiwei looked at his watch. It was almost 7 pm. He did not expect Guo Zhenbiao to really invite him to a banquet. Seems like he could not avoid it. He said, "Okay, I will be there right away."
After hanging up, Lu Yiwei said, "Ermao, go to the pharmacy and buy me some glucose. Also, see if the mobile phone store is open. Buy me a mobile phone and get a card."
"Okay, I will go right away."
It seemed like there was going to be a big fight tonight. Although Lu Yiwei could hold his liquor well, he could not withstand a group attack. If he did not drink some glucose, he might embarrass himself. Wasn't this what Guo Zhenbiao wanted to see? Hmph! I will not let him have his way. In addition, when he was with Zhang Zhiyuan, he had always kept in touch with his alternate account. After he was transferred, he did not use it anymore. One number was obviously not enough. He must separate his private and private affairs. If someone with ulterior motives investigated his call records, his private affairs would be completely exposed. In such a dangerous environment, he had to be more careful.
At 7: 30, Lu Yiwei arrived at Auspicious Tai Restaurant. The waiter led him to the private room on the second floor. There were already three or four people sitting inside.
"Come, Secretary Lu, sit down!" Guo Zhenbiao got up and pulled Lu Yiwei to his side. Then he introduced, "Dongzi, Chengbin, this is Lu Yiwei. He came from the province and is now the fourth in charge of Black Mountain County."
Lu Yiwei smiled and nodded. He shook hands with them and said, "I am new here. I will need your help in the future."
"Listen, Secretary Lu is so eloquent." Guo Zhenbiao said loudly, "Chengbin, if you have any problems in the future, look for Secretary Lu. I promise I will settle it for you."
A man stood up and said with a smile, "Secretary Lu, hello. My name is Yuan Chengbin. I am the director of the County Transportation Bureau. You must go and guide the work."
"Hello." Lu Yiwei looked at Yuan Chengbin. No matter how he looked at him, he did not look like a leader. Also, this morning they had a disagreement over the County Transportation Bureau. Guo Zhenbiao immediately called this person over for lunch. What was his intention?
"Secretary Lu, I am Zhang Dongzi. You can call me Dongzi." Zhang Dongzi said casually.
Lu Yiwei had heard Guo Jinzhu mention this person before. He had even been robbed by his underlings. He did not expect to meet him today. It was inevitable that enemies meet on a narrow road.
Zhang Dongzi was a few years older than him. He did not look as fierce as the gangster leaders on TV. Instead, he looked more delicate. He had fair skin and combed hair. He was wearing Adidas sportswear. If he was not introduced, people would think that he was a rich man from the city. It was difficult to associate such a person with the underworld.
"Hello, Brother Dong." Lu Yiwei's greeting shocked everyone present. It was the first time that a county leader had called him that.
Guo Zhenbiao came to his senses and said, "I didn't expect Secretary Lu to be such a straightforward person. Since you call him Brother Dong, you should also call me Brother Biao. Haha."
Lu Yiwei smiled and said, "It is inevitable to call each other by their titles at work. But in private, there is no need to be so polite. We are all family. Moreover, everyone here is my elder brother. If you call me Secretary Long or Secretary Short, it will not be a pleasant drink. "
"Oh my!" Guo Zhenbiao exclaimed loudly and said, "Look, look, this is a man who knows how to do things and talk. Just because of what you said, you are definitely my brother. Am I right, Dongzi? "
Zhang Dongzi smiled and said, "We are brothers. There is no need to be so polite."
"Yes, yes, we are brothers." Guo Zhenbiao was old, but he was shamelessly boasting that he was a brother to someone of the same generation as his son. It could be seen that he was a smooth talker in Jianghu.
Lu Yiwei's very friendly opening speech relaxed the originally aggressive situation. Before he came, Guo Zhenbiao gritted his teeth and threatened that if he did not take down Lu Yiwei tonight, he would not be able to leave this place. If he did not teach him a lesson, he would not know how many eyes Lord Ma had.
Guo Zhenbiao added, "Yiwei, Dongzi is the chairman of Dongyuan Jintu Company in Heishan County. His business involves real estate, roads and bridges, entertainment, restaurants, and so on. He is a well-known figure in Xi Zhou City. Just like you, young and promising. "
It was called a title company, but in fact, it was doing some shady business under the guise of legality. Lu Yiwei noticed a detail. The company involved roads and bridges. He thought of Guo Zhenbiao's inexplicable temper, and looked at the transportation bureau chief in front of him. It seemed that the mystery in his heart had been solved. Such a big piece of fat meat, and yet it could be touched by others?
"Haha, you are all here!" At this time, another burly man walked in and sat at the dining table. The strong smell of alcohol assaulted his nostrils. He must have just come from another table.
"Come, come, come, Yiwei, let me introduce you. This is Liu Shiping, the director of our Heishan County Public Security Bureau." Then he said to Liu Shiping, "Shiping, this is the new deputy secretary of the County party committee, Lu Yiwei."
"Oh, nice to meet you, nice to meet you!" Liu Shiping stuck out his butt and reached out to shake hands with Lu Yiwei. He laughed and said, "I've heard about you since long ago. I happened to have a meeting in the city yesterday and couldn't make it back. I always thought you were an older comrade. I didn't expect you to be so young. You have a bright future. "
For the director of the Public Security Bureau to appear on such an occasion, it was obvious that they had a good relationship in private. The triad and the director had become friends, which was equivalent to a cat and a mouse becoming friends. Mice were not afraid of cats, so how could cats be in the mood to catch mice?
The banquet began. As expected, everyone was a hero of alcohol. Even though Liu Shiping had already drunk, he still held a large glass and gulped it down. Fortunately, Lu Yiwei had drunk some glucose before. Otherwise, he would not have been able to handle it.
After the meal, the group moved to the KTV on the third floor to continue drinking beer. They also found a few young and beautiful girls to accompany them. Lu Yiwei was not interested. Guo Zhenbiao thought that he could not let go of his hands and feet, so he pushed one of the girls into Lu Yiwei's arms and said, "Yiwei, we are all men. What is there to be ashamed of? The girls here are all great. Relax and play boldly. Nothing will happen. With Liu Shiping here, who would dare to mess around? "
"Big brother, let's play!" The girl took the initiative to lean over and rub her body against his. Her hand had already reached the key part and grabbed it. Her behavior was bold enough.
