He went back into the house and told Li Feiyan. Li Feiyan said, "Isn't there no one else at home?" Li Feiyan said, "Yeah, before my colleague comes back, I'll be alone." Li Feiyan said, "Then I'll wait at home for you to come back." Li Feiyan was a little amused and said, "Why are you waiting for me?" Li Feiyan blushed and said, "I have nothing to do at home. Li Rui saw that this pretty wife had a good impression of him and was happy. He said, "Okay, then you can sit anywhere you want." Before he left, he glanced at his briefcase and did not take it with him. He guessed that Li Feiyan would not touch it.
The person who came from the county was the deputy county head in charge of culture, education, health and sports. His surname was Chen. He was in charge of culture and cultural affairs. He had already gone to Xiaoling Mountain to take a look at the ancient tomb and had returned to the village committee. Li Rui and Wang Tiekui walked into the village committee and saw him in the courtyard. He was surrounded by a group of officials, and everyone was surrounding him. Even though Li Rui had never seen him before, he could recognize that he was the Deputy County Head.
This was one of the characteristics of China's officialdom. No matter where you were, as long as you saw someone surrounded by people, you would know that he was a big leader.
This deputy county head could be arrogant in front of a group of village officials, but when he saw Li Rui, he did not dare to be arrogant. He took the initiative to walk towards him and extended his hand. He smiled and said, "This must be Director Li from the Municipal Party Committee. I've heard so much about you. "Li Rui shook hands with him and said," County Head Chen, you are too polite. " County Head Chen praised, "I didn't expect Director Li to be so young and promising. He is really a role model for our generation." Li Ruixin said that this person was so cultured. No wonder he was in charge of culture. He smiled and said, "County Head Chen is too kind."
The two of them exchanged a few words and were considered to be acquaintances.
Magistrate Chen then praised Li Rui for his important role in the grave robbing incident last night, praising him as a "mainstay and a righteous man". Li Rui thought to himself, 'There's nothing wrong with what you said. Although I've taken three treasures, I've prevented the grave robbers from stealing more. In a sense, I've made a great contribution.'
County Head Chen continued, "Our county's Cultural Relics Bureau is a section-level public institution under our county government. I'm not afraid that Director Li will laugh at me. To be honest, the Bureau is very weak in terms of protecting and excavating ancient tombs. Sigh, this can't be helped. Director Li should be clear about this matter. There are too many people, but there aren't many who can do anything. Therefore, I have the intention to request for support from the city, to ask the Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau to send some manpower to help excavate the ancient tomb. What does Director Li think about this? "
Li Ruixin thought, 'What do I think about this matter? It's none of my business. You can ask for support from wherever you want.' He then said ambiguously, "I'm not too sure about the excavation of ancient tombs, and I don't know what the procedures are. But I think it shouldn't be a problem to ask for support from the Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau. " County Head Chen saw that Li Ruixin had said a lot of ambiguous words, as if he was expressing his opinion, but he didn't say anything. He secretly nodded and thought to himself that Li Ruixin was indeed a person close to the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. He was very stable when he spoke. He said, "Okay, then I'll ask the Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau to ask for help from the city."
Li Rui asked, "Last night, there were two grave robbers who seemed to have died in the tomb and didn't come out. Did they really die in there?" County Head Chen nodded and said, "They have been carried out of the tomb. After the autopsy, it was confirmed that they were poisoned to death by the poisonous gas in the tomb." Li Rui asked again, "Has the owner of the tomb and the age of the tomb been confirmed?" County Head Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head. He said, "The Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau doesn't have any experts in this field, so no one can say for sure. But there are quite a lot of burial objects in the tomb, and some of them have been cleared out. I think the owner of the tomb was a big shot. We still need to wait for the experts from the Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau to confirm. "
After that, Li Rui went to Xiaoling Mountain and found that the entrance of the ancient tomb had been cordoned off by yellow ropes. The police were standing around, and it was already under martial law. Many villagers gathered outside to watch the show, chattering. It was more lively than going to a big market.
When he returned home, Li Rui called Song Chaoyang to report on his daily work progress and mentioned the ancient tomb. As he had deliberately hidden the treasures in the ancient tomb, Song Chaoyang did not pay attention to this matter.
Song Chaoyang told him that the city was studying how to change the application method for poverty alleviation micro-loans. The city's poverty alleviation development leading group was gathering the city's poverty alleviation office and relevant bank officials to discuss. They should be able to come up with a specific solution in a short period of time.
Li Rui also told him that Ling Shuyao was sick and was recuperating in the city. Song Chaoyang did not have any opinion on this at all. He directly told him that he could make the decision on these matters and that there was no need to report to him.
After hanging up the phone, Li Rui saw Li Feiyan looking at him with her beautiful eyes wide open. He could not help but feel slightly amused and asked, "What are you looking at?" Li Feiyan asked curiously, "Aren't you a city leader? Why do you need to report to your boss? What exactly do you do? " Li Rui laughed and said, "The 'boss' I'm talking about is actually my leader, the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. It's not like a boss who runs a company. I call him 'boss' to show that we are close. "Li Feiyan nodded and said foolishly," Oh, you need to call your leader 'boss'? Then I'll call you 'boss' in the future too? "
Li Rui did not know whether to laugh or cry and said, "First, I'm not a leader. Second, you are not my subordinate, so you don't need to call me 'boss'. You can just call me by my name. " Li Feiyan smiled embarrassedly and stuck out her long, snow-white thumb and praised him, "You're really amazing! In our village, the Village Party Secretary is the highest official, but he can't even meet the Village Head normally. Yet you can call the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. You're really a city leader! "Li Rui laughed again and thought to himself, You're comparing the Village Party Secretary to me. Are we even on the same level? But he knew that this village wife had limited knowledge and did not mind and said, "It's just so-so, haha."
After joking for a while, it was already eleven o 'clock. Li Feiyan saw that it was getting late and began to prepare lunch for him, "I'll make lunch for you. Do you want to eat pancakes or steamed rice? Do you have white flour or white rice at home? " Li Rui said, "Aiya, I won't trouble you with lunch. I'll make it myself. You should hurry home. It's time for your family to cook, isn't it?" Li Feiyan said, "There's my mother-in-law. She can cook. I don't have to worry about anything." As she spoke, she saw the bag of white rice and looked for a basin to feed it, "You don't have white flour at home? It's not good for you to always eat white rice. I'll bring you some white flour later … "
This woman was too enthusiastic and Li Rui could not stop her. He could only watch as she busied herself in the house and help her from time to time. The two of them chatted and laughed as they cooked. The house was filled with a warm atmosphere.
Li Feiyan baked two pancakes, made a plate of eggs, stir-fried celery and shredded pork, and finally wanted to make tomato and egg soup. She was stopped by Li Rui. Only then did she stop. She did not stay any longer and went home for lunch.
Li Rui sent her to the door and watched her slender figure disappear from his sight. He sighed in his heart. After lunch, he took out his phone and called Yang Peng. He wanted to know about the progress of the dried fruit and grains processing factory that he was working with Li Yulan. Of course, the purpose of this call was not to ask about the processing factory, but to have a deeper meaning.
The news from Yang Peng was very pleasant: The processing factory at Jiupo Town's granary had been set up. A few production machines and bagging equipment had been purchased. The processing of the grains was not on the right track, but the dried fruit series was already on the market. Yang Peng rented a shop on the bustling street of Shuanghe County. It was named "Fairy Cave's Specialty Dry Fruit Store". It was advertised as "green and pollution-free" and "natural food". A few carefully designed and packaged dried fruit series were sold out by the people of the county as soon as they arrived at the store. The sales were good beyond imagination.
Yang Peng excitedly said, "I've discussed with Li Yulan. We plan to open a store in the city. The sales in the county are already so good. The sales in the city will definitely be better." Li Rui said, "En. Once you've thought about it, do it. Don't hesitate. If you're too conservative, you won't be able to make a lot of money. Oh right, you can also set up an online store on the Tengu website. Not only can you set up a physical store, but you can also do online sales. Yang Peng said, "Li Yulan has already started preparing for that. I don't need to worry about it."
Li Rui then turned to the main topic of the call. He said, "Contact me when you've opened a store in the city. I'm currently helping the poor in a mountain village in Hanshui County. I discovered that a villager's rockery and bonsai has a lot of commercial value. My initial idea is to open up some space in our mountain specialty store to display and sell his rockery and bonsai. We'll see if anyone buys it. If there is, then it'll be even better. It'll be a win-win situation. This villager can use it to escape poverty and become rich. We can also earn a commission. "
