On the hill.
The outcome was set.
Yanbei County Party Secretary Yanggang's heart was filled with indignation. He was a hundred and eighty times unwilling, and had a stomach full of words to argue, but the Party Secretary had already set the tone, and there was no way they could change it. There was no turning back, so Yanggang could only lead his county's people down the mountain with their tails between their legs. They supported the injured police officers, and carried the equipment that had been brought up an hour ago to excavate the ancient tomb. Everyone's faces were ashen, and they walked down the mountain like stray dogs.
This time, Yanbei County had suffered a double loss.
They had wanted to use the tense relationship between the City and Jiaolin County as an opportunity to claim the ancient tomb as their county's territory. But who knew that they would be beaten up by Dong Xuebing and his men. In the end, the ancient tomb was still approved to be excavated in Jiaolin County. Yanbei County had lost face, and there were more than a dozen injured officers. They did not get any benefits from this. It would be a wonder if they were feeling good.
"Serves them right!"
"Finally, get lost!"
"These people are asking for it!"
"They even smashed our equipment. Now, they should behave themselves."
The Jiaolin County's staff were very happy. They gathered together and discussed softly.
Winners are always forgiving. Dong Xuebing said: "Stop talking. Yanbei County does not have enough manpower to help them. The rest of you, continue with your work." There were not many people from Yan Bei County to begin with, only twenty to thirty of them. Now, more than a dozen of them were injured, and there were even a few police officers with broken bones who were carried down the mountain by eight or nine people from Yan Bei County to the hospital. Now, the manpower was even more tight, and it was not enough for one person to support one person. There were two injured people who could only rely on themselves as they walked down the mountain while holding onto a tree.
Help them?
Help them for what?
But Dong Xuebing's words still carried weight. In Jiaolin County, Dong Xuebing's words carried weight, and everyone respected him.
Su Yan immediately went to make arrangements.
Jiaolin County released 5 to 6 people to help Yanbei County.
Qian Litao and the City's people also noticed Jiaolin County's actions. They looked at Dong Xuebing, who gave the order, and were also surprised.
Dong Xuebing was kind enough to help them?
Those who knew him would know that he was not a gentle person!
But Dong Xuebing still did this. He is magnanimous and has the demeanor of a County's County Chief. From this, Dong Xuebing is no longer the hothead he used to be. He is getting more mature. Although he still has his own thoughts and emotions, at least he can put on an act. No one can say anything against him.
"What are you doing?"
"I don't need your help!"
"Move aside! We can walk by ourselves! "
"I said don't touch us! Do you hear me? "
The angry voices of the people from Yanbei County could be heard from the mountainside below. They did not seem to appreciate their kindness at all. Not only did they not let the people from Jiaolin County help them, they even scolded them for their good intentions.
In the end, the people from Jiaolin County who went to help returned dejectedly. "Secretary, they …"
Dong Xuebing said: "I heard it. You all follow them. If you need any help, just help them. Send them down the mountain before coming back. After all, we are the ones who injured them. No matter what misunderstanding we had, we have to take responsibility. After all, they are our comrades."
Those people were unwilling to help Dong Xuebing. But they will not disobey Dong Xuebing's orders. They chased after Dong Xuebing again.
Su Yan was impressed by Dong Xuebing.
Teacher Chu smiled and said to Mu Zhengzhong: "This Secretary Xiao Dong … …" He gave Mu Zhengzhong a thumbs up.
The leaders in the City Government had seen and heard everything clearly. They could not help but shake their heads. Compared to Jiaolin County, Yanbei County was too stingy. It was understandable for them to be emotional, but it was clear who had the upper hand. From the beginning to the end, Yanbei County had lost to Jiaolin County. Or more accurately, Yanggang had lost to Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing … …
Dong Xuebing … …
Putting aside everything else, this was a person with a lot of skill!
It was not a coincidence that he could reach this position at such a young age!
Before noon.
It was 11.30 pm.
Qian Litao and the leaders in the City had finished their inspections and were preparing to go down the mountain. So, Dong Xuebing invited Mu Zhengzhong, two other teachers, Zhang Dongfang, and a few other leaders from Jiaolin County to accompany the leaders down the mountain for lunch. Dong Xuebing can't let the leaders go back after coming all the way here. He must treat them well. The teachers had been busy since they arrived yesterday. They had not even had a good meal and Dong Xuebing must treat them well. In the end, only the Jiaolin County's Cultural Relics Protection team and the people from the Provincial Cultural Relics Department, who were assigned by Xiao Dongnan to guard Qingluan Mountain from today onwards. Xiao Dongnan and a few other Provincial Cultural Department leaders also joined them for lunch.
The group of people continued to descend the mountain.
As they neared the foot of the mountain, the mobile phone signal was good.
Everyone in the room was busy and had a lot of things to do. Phone calls and messages were buzzing, and the leaders were making calls and answering calls as they walked down the hall.
Dong Xuebing was discussing with Zhang Dongfang where they should go for lunch. After all, this is a joyous occasion, and everyone is in a good mood after conquering the ancient tomb. Also, there are many leaders and VIPs around, and they must treat the guests well.
As they were chatting, Dong Xuebing's phone rang. He quickly booked a restaurant with Zhang Dongfang and answered. "Mum."
It was Luan Xiaoping. "Son, what are you doing?"
"I am busy. Mum, what is it? Do you want to talk to me later? "Dong Xuebing asked.
Luan Xiaoping laughed. "Of course. I had tried calling you earlier, but there is no signal."
Dong Xuebing replied. "I am on the mountain and had just come down. What is it?"
Luan Xiaoping replied. "Did your in-laws tell you about it? Huilan's mother wants our family to organize the banquet. She said they will hold a Hundred Days Banquet for Xiao Dong, and the date is set. This Saturday, I am calling you to inform you to come to Beijing on Friday. You don't need to worry about anything else, and your mother-in-law knows you are busy. We will handle the rest. "
Dong Xuebing replied. "How about we don't hold it? It's too troublesome. If not, you all can do it. I will not be going. "
"What's so troublesome? We can't hold it after the first month, but we still need to organize it after a hundred days." Luan Xiaoping replied unhappily. "You are not coming? Your son is going to celebrate a hundred days, and why are you not coming? "
"I am busy and can't leave."
"I don't care. You must come back!"
"Alright … I will try my best."
