Chapter 1066

~9 min read 1,645 words

Han Xiang Dong's suggestion was indeed a bit of a joke. Tian Chengzu coming to Shangjun County was indeed clearly backing his son up. But if Gu Shanmin came to Shangjun County to back Su Xinghui up, that would be a very childish behavior.

Such behavior would be greatly penalized by high-level leaders. With Gu Shanmin's political wisdom, it was naturally impossible for him to do such a thing.

Also because of this, now Gu Shanmin and Lu Zhenghong could not directly provide any help to Su Xinghui for the time being. This matter could only be faced by Su Xinghui himself.

Su Xinghui gave a faint smile, "It's nothing. Aren't we going to Yuedong Province for investment promotion in a few days? As long as there are relatively large achievements in investment promotion this year, it will be enough to offset these adverse effects."

Yu Ruizhi said, "Well said. When the time comes, we will go together and get more investment back, more than 300 million. Let's see what else this broken steel mill can show off."

Su Xinghui raised his glass, "Okay, let's go to Yuedong together. Thank you, brothers!"

Tian Chengzu stayed in Shangjun County for two days, successively visiting Pengjiawan Town, Chengguan Town, Meng Hu Ling Township, and other places. He also met with Pan Yongchun and gave a high evaluation of Pan Yongchun's steel mill project.

After doing all this, Tian Chengzu returned to Jiangcheng. Before returning to Jiangcheng, he had a long private talk with Tian Xiaopeng. I don't know what was said, but Tian Xiaopeng looked as if he had taken a reassurance pill, and the smile on his face became more and more bright and sunny.

After Tian Chengzu left, Tian Xiaopeng held two more county magistrate office meetings to discuss the launch of the Yongchun Steel Mill project. However, Chen Hongfu still withstood huge pressure and expressed clear opposition to this project.

Of course, the attitudes of the other several deputy county magistrates slowly wavered, and their stances were somewhat ambiguous. Plus Qi Xiaoyan clearly supporting Tian Xiaopeng, the situation slowly developed in a direction favorable to Tian Xiaopeng.

However, Zhang Kaishan and Chen Hongfu were still struggling to support. They were talking to a large number of cadres in the county, trying to get wider support.

At the same time, in various media in the province, the great debate about whether to have the environment or development was still in full swing. The two viewpoints had their own supporters. For a time, no one could overwhelm the other. It is expected that this kind of debate will have to continue for a period of time.

Under such circumstances, at the end of March, Su Xinghui took Party and Government Office Director Li Daqing, Liu Yongjun, and others to Yuedong Province together. And Yu Ruizhi and the others had already arrived in Yuedong Province two days ahead of them, which could be considered as scouting for him.

This investment promotion activity was prepared to be held in Pengcheng Special Zone. This place is now the most developed and active region in Yuedong Province and even the whole country. I don't know how many investment promotion meetings are held here every year from all over the country.

However, when the train arrived in Yangcheng, Su Xinghui got off the train. He wanted to meet with Yu Ruizhi and the others and see that friend of Yu Yan's in Yuedong Province.

Su Xinghui exhorted Li Daqing and them that after getting off the train in Pengcheng, they should immediately call Mai Yonglun, and he would arrange everything.

After Li Daqing agreed, Su Xinghui got off the train. After leaving the station, he saw Yu Ruizhi, Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu, and the others waiting for him at the station exit.

As soon as he saw Su Xinghui, Yu Ruizhi affectionately put his arm around his shoulder and said, "Let's go, first stay in the hotel, eat a meal with my dad's friend in the evening, and tomorrow we will go to Pengcheng with you."

Su Xinghui nodded, got into the car with Yu Ruizhi and the others, and came to a high-end hotel in Yangcheng, Swan Hotel. Yu Ruizhi and the others had been staying here for the past two days. They had already opened a suite for Su Xinghui. After bringing Su Xinghui in, Yu Ruizhi said, "You sat on the train for a whole night, you must be tired, right? You rest first, and we will call you when it's time for dinner."

Su Xinghui's trip to Yuedong Province this time was for business, and he was on a business trip with his subordinates. He naturally could not come by plane and could only take the train. In this era, there were no high-speed trains or bullet trains, only green-skin trains, and the speed was very slow. They got on the train in Jiangcheng last night and didn't arrive in Yangcheng until this afternoon.

They not only took the train, but because of the reimbursement standard problem, they couldn't even take the sleeper. Taking the sleeper would exceed the standard. They all bought hard seat tickets. Hard seats meant sitting hard. Su Xinghui sat for a whole night, at most able to doze off on the small table. No matter how good his body was, he was a bit tired now.

Su Xinghui nodded, "I didn't sleep all night, now I am indeed a bit tired. Then brothers, I'm sorry, I'll sleep for a while first."

Chu Zheng said, "You too, isn't this asking for trouble? How good it would be to take a plane, you would arrive in a while, but you had to sit on the train for a whole night."

Su Xinghui smiled, "Taking a plane would exceed the standard. Not being able to reimburse is a small matter, but I am also bringing a group of subordinates. Can I take them on a plane? Let me tell you, the town's financial system is very strict, even the sleeper cannot be taken. Otherwise, could I not sleep for a whole night?"

Han Xiang Dong smiled, "Alright, let's stop talking and let Xinghui sleep."

After the few went out, Su Xinghui slept sweetly. At five o'clock in the afternoon, Yu Ruizhi came to knock on his door, and he woke up immediately. After he opened the door, Yu Ruizhi smiled, "Wash your face, it's five o'clock. Governor Ke will arrive in about half an hour."

That friend of Yu Yan's was named Ke Zhifang, who was the Vice Governor of Yuedong Province and a member of the Provincial Standing Committee, in charge of economic work. He could be considered to have high position and great power in Yuedong Province. Being able to take time out to accompany Su Xinghui for this meal was really a very big face. Su Xinghui naturally could not be negligent.

He quickly washed his face, tidied up his appearance, and went downstairs with Yu Ruizhi. Yu Ruizhi took Su Xinghui into the hotel restaurant. They had already booked a private room. After entering the private room, Yu Ruizhi called Ke Zhifang. The call was answered by Ke Zhifang's secretary, who said Ke Zhifang would set off immediately and arrive at Swan Hotel in ten minutes.

Yu Ruizhi went out with Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu and Su Xinghui and waited in the lobby of Swan Hotel.

Not long after, a black Red Flag sedan drove over and stopped at the hotel entrance. Yu Ruizhi quickly took the two out and greeted them.

A middle-aged man of about fifty years old got off the car. He was Ke Zhifang. He said to his secretary, "Come to pick me up in an hour."

The secretary nodded, got into the car, and the car drove away.

Yu Ruizhi stepped forward and bowed slightly, "Uncle Ke, hello! We meet again!"

Ke Zhifang laughed, "Ruizhi, hello. The last time we met was at your wedding banquet. This is Sister Sister Ruoqiu, right? Getting more and more beautiful!"

Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu stepped forward and smiled, "Uncle Ke, hello!"

Ke Zhifang looked at Su Xinghui again and said, "This is that Su Xinghui you mentioned, right? Indeed, he is talented and promising!"

Su Xinghui also stepped forward and smiled, "Governor Ke, hello! Very honored to be able to meet you!"

Yu Ruizhi said, "Uncle Ke, let's not talk at the gate, let's go to the private room."

Ke Zhifang smiled and nodded. The group entered the private room together. Yu Ruizhi asked the waiter to serve the dishes quickly. Ke Zhifang could only stay here for an hour. If the dishes were served late, there wouldn't even be enough time to eat.

Yu Ruizhi had already ordered the dishes. Before going out to greet Ke Zhifang, he had already asked the hotel to start cooking. Therefore, the dishes were served quickly.

During this period, Ke Zhifang also finished exchanging pleasantries with Chu Zheng and Han Xiang Dong. The old men of these two were also founding fathers, so he naturally would not be negligent.

The dishes were served. Yu Ruizhi took out a bottle of 30-year-old Pengwan Daqu and opened the cap. Suddenly, a strange fragrance permeated. This luxury private room with an area of nearly 100 square meters was suddenly filled with this strange fragrance.

Ke Zhifang sniffed in surprise and said, "Ruizhi, what kind of wine is this? Why is it so fragrant? I seem to have never smelled such a fragrance before."

Yu Ruizhi pointed to Su Xinghui and said, "This wine is Pengwan Daqu produced by the winery in the town where Su Xinghui is the mayor."

Ke Zhifang said in surprise, "They have such good wine in a town winery? This is amazing! Where is it sold? I'll go buy some too."
