Chapter 416
Minister Gao also laughed, "All are comrades with principles, that's right. In work we should also persist like this, of course, persisting in principle should also stand on the correct side. Speaking of principle, we should still wait for the guests, we can also chat a while."
As soon as he said that, the atmosphere immediately eased considerably. To be frank, such a matter, especially in this setting, if it weren't for Su Yang's words, Li Chunsheng would absolutely not have said another sentence.
At this point Su Yang continued speaking, "Originally, if Secretary Donglai hadn't called this time, I was also planning to call Secretary Donglai and invite Secretary Donglai and Minister Gao to have a meal together."
"The reason is also quite simple, mainly also because of the work in Huatian Town. To be frank, I have indeed put some effort into Huatian Town. Four enterprises with tens of millions have already settled in, and our village's specialty enterprises have been successively built and started production."
"Seeing our economic development about to flourish and thrive, completely shaking off the backward state of being at the bottom."
"But I never expected that because of my own rashness such a thing happened. For this, while I am blaming myself, I also naturally want to give an explanation to the common people of Huatian Town."
"So I very much want to invite Secretary Donglai for a meal, Secretary Donglai please give more care, Mayor Li has long been rooted in our Huatian Town, very familiar with the situation of our town, and also has his own unique views on economic construction."
"He is also the finest cadre in Huatian Town, without equal. I hope Secretary Donglai can give support in economic matters in his future work."
"Of course, I am now a dismissed idle person, and what I say is merely my request as a Huatian Town staff member."
Minister Gao said, "Su Yang, you're being too polite. Everyone knows what you've contributed to Huatian Town; we've all seen your efforts. This time, there are also some unexpected factors, so Donglai, after you go there you must definitely implement the baseline previously set by the Huatian Town Party Committee and Government, and walk out the path of village specialty economy."
"Now Huatian Town's economic model is not just Huatian Town's own affair; it is also a matter of concern for the entire Gold City County Party Committee and County Government, even the Provincial Government is paying attention. So you must definitely see this through; if you encounter any obstacles or troubles along the way, you can also come directly to me."
Minister Gao's remark also counts as Tan Donglai answering Su Yang's question on his behalf; he also knows that Su Yang's purpose in coming today is definitely for this.
At this time Tan Donglai also said, "Minister Gao, Su Zhenzhang, please rest assured. Although I don't have ample experience in economic work, I will definitely not hold back here; I express my stance: I will fully support Comrade Li Chunsheng in developing Huatian Town's economy."
"From now on, all work in the town must make way for economic development."
Li Chunsheng also hurriedly said, "Thank you, leaders, for your support and understanding. The foundation of Huatian Town was laid by Su Zhenzhang; for this he also expended great effort. Because of his efforts, all the cadres of Huatian Town and all the common people who earn money have seen hope."
"So I will unswervingly implement the guideline for village specialty economic development, advancing one by one the projects already completed and in production, as well as those under construction, to give an explanation to all leaders, to Su Zhenzhang, and to the entire town's populace."
After saying that, everyone nodded heavily. This is actually not just a Huatian Town project; it is also an economic pilot in the county, and once successful, it will be promoted throughout.
While they were speaking, Su Yang's phone rang; he picked it up and saw, "My friend has arrived, I'll go pick him up, you all continue chatting."
Minister Gao said, "Okay, then we'll wait for you."
At this moment, he still didn't realize who Su Yang's friend was.
After Su Yang went downstairs, Zhou Ruohan was already standing at the door.
"Didn't I tell you the private room number? You didn't just go in directly, but insisted that I come down to fetch you."
Zhou Ruohan said, "I just asked you to come pick me up—what's wrong? Is that not allowed?"
"If I go in directly, wouldn't that seem too abrupt? Going in with you also gives them a chance to adjust."
After saying that, she naturally linked her arm with Su Yang's. Her reason for coming wasn't because there are female cadres in Huatian Town or anything like that; she isn't that narrow-minded.
She came mainly to make their relationship public on a small scale.
In his view, the earlier such things are made public, the better; the earlier they are made public, the more confident he feels.
Anyway, Su Yang isn't a primary leader of the lower townships, so the organization's personnel policy permits this, and she doesn't need to avoid suspicion.
"Well, since you insist on that, then I'll go along with your wish. It's also good that you can help say a few words; I think the development direction of Huatian Town Jianglai basically won't undergo major changes, and this way my efforts there won't be wasted."
Zhou Ruohan said, "Sure! Actually I just wanted to come take a look around; since you have this need, I'll satisfy you. In short, the county still needs to rely on the economic development of each town to rise; only then can the county shake off the hat of poverty."
"What a pity, you as the vanguard haven't even fired your first shot before being taken down."
The two of them, talking as they went, walked together into the private room.
Minister Gao, who was drinking tea in the private room, saw Zhou Ruohan enter and immediately stood up, saying, "County Mayor Zhou, how did you come over?"
Tan Donglai and Li Chunsheng, who had their backs to the door, also hurriedly stood up; they didn't even hear clearly what Minister Gao was saying, but when Minister Gao suddenly stood up, they reflexively followed suit.
When they turned around and saw who had entered, their minds exploded with a boom—.
Especially Tan Donglai, who had just been thinking that Minister Gao's position as Organization Department Head was already prestigious enough, that meals should start on time, and as for Su Yang's friend, he didn't look down on them or anything; logically, it was impossible for someone to have the same prestige as Minister Gao.
He never could have imagined that the person who came was actually the County Mayor……
For a moment, he broke out in cold sweat behind his back; initially he had a slight dissatisfaction with Li Chunsheng, but now he feels nothing but gratitude.
If Li Chunsheng hadn't said those words, Su Yang would also have felt embarrassed; if he had spoken directly like that, maybe the meal would already have started by now.
By then, once this matter gets out, regardless of whether others will target him, his reputation will probably have already sunk into the gutter.
"County Mayor Zhou, hello, I am Tan Donglai of the Organization Department." He hurriedly made a greeting.
Li Chunsheng's heart felt like an explosion as well, because she is more meticulous in thought than Tan Donglai, she was sure she hadn't misseen, and the great County Mayor Zhou actually had her arm linked with Su Yang's.
And Su Yang earlier said he had a friend coming over for a meal, right? He just blurted out "plants"—could it be that the two of them are...?
Thinking of this, her heart started pounding wildly; everyone says Su Zhenzhang has strong connections in the county, but I didn't expect them to be this strong.
At this moment, Zhou Ruohan also saw everyone's reaction; to be frank, she still felt quite satisfied, not because her status as County Mayor made everyone stand up on the spot, but because of her relationship with Su Yang.
He openly said, "Everyone please sit down; Su Yang didn't say anything, right? Today the person who came is his friend, so we should chat and eat."
"Ah, right, I need to correct this—I'm not his friend, I'm his fiancée, the kind that has already been over to his house."
