Chapter 3889: The Man in Command

After Zhao Desan finished his tireless report, Wu Min said, "Vice District Mayor Liu's work report is very detailed. He has analyzed the problems currently existing in our district from various aspects, especially regarding urban construction and the environment. Combining this with the actual situation, I feel Vice District Mayor Liu's ideas are very forward-looking. If our district is to improve its urban appearance, the first thing we must tackle is the urban environment, especially the idea of planting landscape trees—that is excellent. I wonder how the other leaders view this? District Mayor Liu, what do you think?" Saying this, Wu Min wanted to see Liu Deliang's attitude. As long as the second-in-command, Liu Deliang, had no objections, the idea of planting landscape trees would be implemented.

Although Liu Deliang had not conducted an actual inspection, he could feel from Zhao Desan's work report that this kid, Zhao Desan, really had ideas for the district's development and construction, especially the idea of planting landscape trees to beautify the environment, which was worth affirming. Regarding this matter, Liu Deliang knew that as long as this idea was implemented and the district's environmental appearance improved, it would be a change that could be seen by higher-level leaders, which was also a good thing for him personally. Even if he hadn't done anything himself, as a leader of the district, the district's development certainly wouldn't be a bad thing for him. Thinking this, Liu Deliang laughed "Hehe" and said, "I agree with Vice District Mayor Liu's idea. In the two years Vice District Mayor Liu has been in our district's Construction Committee, everyone has witnessed the district's development. As the leader in charge of urban construction, I feel that we other leaders must support and cooperate well with Vice District Mayor Liu's work to improve our district's urban environment."

Liu Deliang's clear-cut supportive attitude also led the other leaders to express their agreement in unison. Thus, the idea of using these support funds to plant landscape trees to beautify the environment was finalized. Wu Min said, "Since everyone feels this idea is feasible, then it is settled. The specific implementation will be left to Vice District Mayor Liu."

After the meeting, Wu Min called Zhao Desan into her office and told him solemnly, "Xiao Zhao, these fifty million are handed over to you to handle. Whether this matter is handled well or not relates to your future prospects, and also to whether I can enter the municipal leadership team in two years. Sister is handing this matter to you to implement; you absolutely must not mess it up. I know your work is very busy right now, but the most important work at present is this matter, because this is something that can produce results in a short time. Understand?"

Zhao Desan nodded confidently and said, "Sister Wu, you can rest assured. I will definitely handle this matter well. You just wait to see the changes in the district!"

Looking at Zhao Desan's confident appearance, Wu Min smiled with satisfaction and said, "Alright, then you go down and implement it as soon as possible!"

After coming out of Wu Min's office and returning to his unit, Zhao Desan began to devote himself wholeheartedly to his work. For several consecutive days, he stayed honestly in his office, on one hand busy with the matter of planting ginkgo trees on all the main streets of the district to beautify the environment, and on the other hand, having to deal with the relevant procedures for the preparation and groundbreaking of the first project invested and built by the Lin Construction Group in the district.

Soon, a batch of ginkgo trees was transported from another place to the Chanba Development Zone, which was under the jurisdiction of Xijing City, Hexi Province. According to the requirements deployed by Zhao Desan, they started from several main streets in the development zone, planting on both sides of the streets. For a time, a vigorous "tree-planting movement" unfolded in the district. Seeing the ginkgo trees standing tall one by one on the roadside, Zhao Desan seemed to have already seen the beautiful scenery created by the yellow and green leaves on the trees throughout the spring, summer, and autumn seasons. This work was carried out very quickly, and Wu Min praised Zhao Desan's work many times, making Zhao Desan increasingly realize the brightness of his future. After the "tree-planting movement" was in full swing, another important task arrived: the groundbreaking of the first project invested and built by the Lin Group in the district.

The approval procedures for the ecological tourism city project of the Yan-Lin Group had already been completed, and the groundbreaking was about to take place. Zhao Desan suddenly remembered that he had not yet been to the site to see it. As the leader in charge of urban construction, Zhao Desan felt that if he didn't even know the site situation before the start of construction, it would be too derelict in his duty. Previously, because the Lin Construction Group was an investment project brought to the district by the municipal party committee and municipal government, the district had also given the green light to some procedures, trying to avoid delaying the project's progress. However, some necessary conditions for the groundbreaking still had to be completed, otherwise, construction could not begin.

The "tree-planting movement" was now in full swing, and Zhao Desan was finally able to free up time to busy himself with other matters. This afternoon, after inspecting the "tree-planting movement" site on one of the busiest main streets in the district, on the way back to the unit, Zhao Desan suddenly had a whim to go and see the preliminary preparation work at the Lin Construction Group's project site, so he asked Biaozi to turn the car around and head straight to the project site located in the planned Chanba Ecological City.

"Loving you is hard to say..." Just as Zhao Desan was about to reach his destination, his mobile phone rang. He took out his phone and saw it was a call from Fang Qi. He suddenly remembered that he had been busy with work wholeheartedly during this recent period and had actually forgotten about this beautiful policewoman. He hurriedly answered the phone and said with a smile, "Hello, Qiqi..."

Who knew that Zhao Desan's hot face would be pressed against a cold butt? Qiqi complained on the phone, "Hmph! You haven't ignored me since you came back from your study tour. What's the meaning of this!"

Zhao Desan hurriedly apologized with a smile, "I've been too busy lately and haven't had time. I'll be done soon; I'll find time to treat you to a meal and apologize to you, won't that do!"

Qiqi complained, "I don't know when I'll have to wait for you to treat me to a meal. You come to my house tonight; I'll cook for you. You are not allowed to refuse!" Fang Qi's voice was still as sweet and pleasant as ever, making Zhao Desan feel like he was about to melt the moment he heard her voice. He couldn't help but think of Fang Qi's plump and soul-stirring figure. Recently, because Zhao Desan had been a bit scared by Wu Min's demands while on his study tour, he hadn't dared to think about women for several days. But suddenly receiving Fang Qi's call rekindled the man's instinctive desires. Thinking of Fang Qi's round and large white breasts, he felt a bit itchy all over.

However, for Zhao Desan, now was not the time to think about such things. If he were to think about it, he could only do so after visiting the tourism city project. Zhao Desan couldn't help but shake his head, forcing himself to forget the mouth-watering scene, smiled, and said, "Tonight, huh? I'll see how things go. I still have some work on hand now. If I finish and there's still time, I'll come over."

Fang Qi was not the kind of unreasonable girl. Knowing that Zhao Desan was always very serious and responsible about his work, she took a step back and said coquettishly, "Alright then, I'll go home after work and wait for you. Give me a call when you're done!"

Zhao Desan said with a smile, "Got it."

Biaozi, who had been following Zhao Desan, couldn't help but feel envious seeing such a beautiful girl throwing herself at Zhao Desan. After Zhao Desan hung up the phone, Biaozi couldn't help but ask, "Big Brother, which beauty is asking you to dinner again?"

Zhao Desan said, "Qiqi!"

Biaozi laughed and said, "Big Brother, if you could share one of your women with me, that would be great!"

Zhao Desan glared at him and said, "You just drive your car well. When your restaurant opens and you become the boss, women will naturally come knocking on your door!"

Just as they were about to reach their destination, Biaozi suddenly said to Zhao Desan, "Big Brother, look over there, what's the situation?"

Zhao Desan looked in the direction of Biaozi's gaze and only then discovered that a large crowd of people had gathered in front of a lonely two-story building not far away, not knowing what they were doing. Driven by human curiosity, Zhao Desan ordered Biaozi to stop the car, wanting to get out and take a look.

Getting out of the car, Zhao Desan walked over with curiosity and squeezed into the crowd. He saw a tall, pretty girl standing at the entrance of this two-story building, wearing a white dress, standing alone in the very center of the gate. At this moment, opposite her, more than a dozen men looking like migrant workers, wearing yellow hard hats and holding shovels and pickaxes, were standing. Behind this group of migrant workers was a man with a crew cut and a gold necklace, whose face was full of evil—at a glance, he was clearly not a good person.

This man in the black shirt was staring greedily at the girl in the white dress with his triangular eyes, revealing a lewd gaze in his eyes, and said with a wretched smile, "Little girl, you'd better move aside quickly. Brother can't bear to lay a hand on such a beautiful girl like you. Don't force Brother, or be careful, or Brother might just take you!"

As soon as this guy with the crew cut said this, the dozen or so migrant workers behind him burst into a roar of laughter. Their eyes looking at the girl in the white dress were full of pity and desire, and their faces were full of simplicity and honesty, yet for the sake of money, they were willing to be commanded by the man in the black shirt and act as his claws.

This man in the black shirt was none other than the son of the boss of Hexi Second Construction, the contractor for the Lin Construction Group. This guy inherited his father's excellent traditions of being insidious, cold, and lecherous, but his style of doing things was even more bizarre and cruel than his father's. Whenever any urban construction project of Hexi Second Construction encountered resistance, this guy would come forward to solve it, especially when demolition encountered resistance; this guy would adopt tough measures, forcibly demolishing, and even not hesitating to cause loss of life. His methods were cruel and experienced, and coupled with Hexi Second Construction's connections in Hexi Province, often when fatal accidents occurred, this guy would always remain unscathed.

Zhao Desan stood in the crowd and saw the girl in the white dress at first glance because her figure was too graceful and her appearance too delicate. Just standing there alone, facing this guy in the black shirt and the dozen or so minions holding "murderous weapons" he had brought, she appeared so weak and helpless, making people sympathize. However, her face did not reveal any trace of fear or apprehension, but was full of aloofness and cold pride. Her beautiful cheeks seemed to be covered with a layer of thousand-year-old ice, and not a trace of warmth could be seen. That cold and glamorous temperament made Zhao Desan feel as if he were seeing Lan Mei in her youth at first glance; that aloof and cold temperament seemed to be innate and unaffected by any environmental factors.

What made Zhao Desan feel surprised was not only the cold temperament of the girl in the white dress but also her courage to face danger without fear and not fear the dark and evil forces. When the guy in the black shirt teased her, her face showed neither anger nor fear, but remained expressionless, unmoved by his words. She only parted her red lips slightly, and from a set of teeth as white as shells, she faintly spat out the word "No." Her voice was very soft, but her firm attitude could be seen at a glance. She just stood there straight, blocking the dozen or so migrant workers, not letting them break into the house to carry out the demolition. ===== CHAPTER 3890 =====
