Chapter 1351: Going to See Your Sweetheart?

At the end of the month,

The Hongxing Group footwear and apparel production base officially began operations.

For this reason,

Chairman Shui Junhong traveled personally to Yechuan to attend the production commencement ceremony.

Municipal Party Secretary Jiang Jing and Shui Junhong have a good relationship.

Furthermore, since this project was introduced through Jiang Jing's investment promotion efforts, Jiang Jing came to Yechuan to show support for this ceremony.

With the Municipal Party Secretary coming to Yechuan to attend an event, the various departments of Yechuan County naturally dared not be negligent.

Jiang Jing and Shui Junhong chatted happily all the way!

"Chairman Shui, how long do you plan to stay in Xiyang this time?"

"Three days, I suppose!"

"Very well, I will arrange for personnel to take you around Xiyang tomorrow. There are still quite a few places in Xiyang worth experiencing."

"Then I will have to trouble you, Secretary Jiang."

"You are too polite!"

Tang Ye was also extremely serious about ensuring this reception went well.

Although he was very familiar with Jiang Jing, personal feelings were one thing, but one still had to follow the rules when it came to work.

The female Host presiding over the event was from Xiyang Television Station.

Although the appearance fee for today's event was not particularly high, she performed her duties very earnestly.

Because the Municipal Party Secretary was on-site, for an event of this level, if a major mistake occurred, her career might end right there.

Shui Junhong and Jiang Jing stood in the middle of the stage.

The two cut the red ribbon together, and the sound of ceremonial cannons rang out behind them.

In an instant, ribbons flew, completely igniting the atmosphere at the scene.

Jiang Jing shook hands with Shui Junhong.

Jiang Jing said with a smile, "Chairman Shui, from now on our relationship will be even closer; we are comrades in the same trench!"

Shui Junhong laughed, "With a teammate like you, I am full of confidence in the future of Hongxing Group."

The photographer requested that the two stand in the center for a group photo.

After the photo of the two was taken, Shui Junhong beckoned to Tang Ye, "County Magistrate Tang, come and join us for a photo!"

Tang Ye walked to Shui Junhong's side with a smile, "Such a meaningful historical moment should be captured; it is worth commemorating."

After the photo session ended, Shui Junhong said to Jiang Jing with a smile, "I must properly thank County Magistrate Tang! Some time ago, we sponsored a student from Yechuan, and this matter sparked quite a bit of heat on the internet.

According to sales department statistics, in just one week, product sales doubled, and the sales data for the online mall in particular saw a significant increase."

Tang Ye smiled, "The internet is very sensitive to stories with positive energy. This is thanks to the fact that Hongxing Group has a philanthropic gene, and Chairman Shui is a person with a sense of social responsibility."

Shui Junhong smiled, "I said last time that you are a genius when it comes to marketing strategy. It seems my judgment was not wrong at all."

Tang Ye hurriedly said modestly, "Chairman Shui, you are too kind."

Shui Junhong laughed, "If you have any other good ideas in the future, be sure to share them with me in a timely manner."

Tang Ye replied readily, "If I have any suggestions or thoughts, I will certainly communicate them to you."

……

After returning to the office in the afternoon, Tang Ye entered a work state, handling a thousand and one tasks.

As a County Magistrate, many tasks require overall planning and oversight.

Even with abundant energy, it is difficult to be thorough and cover every single detail.

Most County Magistrates tend to focus on promoting work in areas they prioritize.

For example, those with experience in industrial work will focus on industrial development after taking office;

Those who have managed education work will focus on the construction of the education sector after taking office.

Tang Ye has always been deeply involved on the front lines of government affairs, tempering and growing step by step from grassroots townships, so he is very familiar with work in all fields, and his approach to work is more comprehensive and in-depth.

After finishing his daily work, Tang Ye instructed Ma Ran to bring over the materials from the County Magistrate's mailbox.

The materials in the County Magistrate's mailbox were varied and miscellaneous.

Ma Ran had to spend a large amount of time every day screening the materials.

"County Magistrate Tang, please take a look at this complaint material."

Tang Ye took the material into his hands and read it through carefully.

This material was a complaint regarding a rural drinking water project.

Yechuan County began its journey to solve drinking water safety issues two years ago, launching the rural drinking water project construction program.

Among them was a village that was supposed to have 500,000 yuan in Central Committee budget funds.

However, reality poured cold water on this; the Water Affairs Bureau's contract showed that the actual funds invested in the project construction were only a little over 250,000 yuan, and the whereabouts of nearly half the funds had become a mystery.

He dialed Li Yongan's phone number.

Not long after, Li Yongan walked in.

Tang Ye handed the material to Li Yongan, "Take a look at this."

After Li Yongan finished reading it, his brows furrowed, "There may be economic issues involved here."

Tang Ye instructed, "Form a working group, led by you, to go around to the various townships and focus on understanding the drinking water project."

Li Yongan nodded, "Understood, I will go handle it immediately."

Tang Ye felt at ease with Li Yongan handling matters.

Li Yongan had already become an indispensable right-hand man for Tang Ye.

……

The landline rang; Tang Ye glanced at the number, and a smile appeared on his face, "Troupe Leader Xue, hello!"

The call was from Xue Ying, the deputy troupe leader of the Shaanxi Provincial Song and Dance Theater.

"County Magistrate Tang, hello! Regarding the project to hold an arts performance in Yechuan County, it has been officially approved."

"That is truly wonderful. When would it be convenient for you to come to Yechuan County for a site visit?"

"How about Friday?"

"Alright, we will see you on Friday!"

After hanging up the phone with Tang Ye, Xue Ying called for Li Youyou.

Li Youyou was currently the star performer of the Shaan Province Sheng Gewantuan.

Last year, she had originally been just one step away from stepping onto the stage of the Spring Festival Gala.

Although she did not get her wish in the end, she performed the solo dance "Phoenix Cry" at the Lantern Festival Gala, garnering high praise from both the industry and the audience.

"Troupe Leader, you called for me; is there something you need?"

"Prepare yourself a little; you are coming with me on a business trip to Yechuan County this Friday."

Li Youyou felt her heart give a sudden jolt!

Tang Ye was currently serving as the County Magistrate in Yechuan County.

Counting carefully, she and Tang Ye had not seen each other for several years.

Over these past few years, Li Youyou had always poured all her energy into her career and never had any complicated romantic entanglements; everyone in the troupe jokingly called her a "dance fanatic" obsessed with dance.

In truth, only Li Youyou herself understood that it was because she hid someone in the depths of her heart who was destined to have no outcome with her.

To relieve the longing and unwillingness in her heart, she could only pour all her passion into the meticulous refinement of her dance technique.

"Youyou, Youyou?" Seeing Li Youyou lost in thought, Xue Ying hurriedly called out softly.

"Ah, what?" Li Youyou only then suddenly snapped back to her senses.

Xue Ying smiled and teased, "What is it? Hearing that you are going to see your sweetheart has made you lose your composure?"

A rosy flush rose to Li Youyou's cheeks, "Troupe Leader Xue, what nonsense are you talking about? County Magistrate Tang is a married man."

Xue Ying could not help but laugh, winking, "I didn't say who your sweetheart was; you have confessed without being asked!"

Li Youyou bit her lip, "Stop joking around with me. If there is nothing else, I am leaving..."
