Chapter 1336

~5 min read 956 words

After accompanying the investors to eat at the County Committee Guesthouse, Li Bokun went to the home of County Party Secretary Xue Xingyuan. When he arrived at Xue Xingyuan's home, Xue Xingyuan was watching the "News Broadcast." This was Xue Xingyuan's old habit; he watched the "News Broadcast" every day.

Because of this habit, the County Committee Guesthouse even specially set up a private room with a television in the restaurant. If Xue Xingyuan was eating there in the evening and encountered the start of the "News Broadcast," he would have the television turned on and watch while eating.

Seeing Li Bokun arrive, Xue Xingyuan nodded slightly to him and then focused on watching the television. Li Bokun didn't dare to disturb him and accompanied him to watch the television on the side.

After the "News Broadcast" finished, Xue Xingyuan stood up, walked into his study with his hands behind his back, and Li Bokun followed him in.

Actually, Xue Xingyuan only had an elementary school education. He had been a production team leader, then a brigade leader, then a commune cadre, and a county cadre, eventually becoming County Magistrate and County Party Secretary. He didn't like reading books; this study was just for show, and then when close people came to his home, it was convenient to talk here.

Entering the study, Xue Xingyuan said with a straight face, "Finished eating?"

Li Bokun said, "Finished, they opened rooms at the County Committee Guesthouse and are resting."

Xue Xingyuan said, "I heard more than twenty investors came today?"

Li Bokun said, "Actually, there weren't that many. There were only a dozen or so real investors; the others were just here to play."

Xue Xingyuan glanced at Li Bokun, and Li Bokun's heart jumped, but he still pretended to be nonchalant. Saying this actually had a bit of self-deception; he wanted to describe Su Xinghui's strength as low as possible.

Xue Xingyuan said expressionlessly, "I heard they drove over a dozen cars. What kind of cars were they?"

Li Bokun said, "Eleven in total, but I recognize very few of those cars. Anyway, we don't have cars like that in our county; they should be very high-end."

This Li Bokun didn't lie. He had never seen cars like the Land Rover in Changshan County, and there wouldn't be cars like this on television either. There was no internet in this era, and he had no channel to see such cars. But he could still see the grade of the cars; he knew the grade of these cars couldn't be compared to the Santanas in their county.

Xue Xingyuan said, "So, this Su Xinghui really has some ability. He's only been here for a few days and has already invited so many investors. By the way, his girlfriend also came, right? Is she surnamed Lu?"

Li Bokun said, "His girlfriend seems to be surnamed Lu; she also came today."

Xue Xingyuan snorted and said, "No wonder he's so arrogant; he really has some ability."

Li Bokun said, "Maybe it's relying on the ability of his girlfriend's family."

Xue Xingyuan raised his voice a bit and said, "That's also an ability. By the way, I haven't asked you yet. What did you go to Matou Town for today? This matter of investors coming doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right?"

Li Bokun said, "Secretary Xue, I was just about to tell you about this matter. Su Xinghui, relying on his strong background, is bullying people too much, isn't he? On what grounds did he shut down the Baiyunshan Quarry?"

Xue Xingyuan, of course, had also heard about Su Xinghui shutting down the Baiyunshan Quarry. In the county, he had many eyes and ears. How could he not know about such a big event?

Xue Xingyuan said, "I knew you went to Matou Town for this matter."

Seeing Xue Xingyuan's tone was a bit unfriendly, Li Bokun said, "Secretary, this Baiyunshan Quarry was indeed opened by my brother-in-law, but it also had legal procedures. Su Xinghui shutting down this quarry is intentionally making things difficult for me."

Li Bokun was originally a bit afraid of the background behind Su Xinghui, but the huge benefits of the quarry still made him a bit unwilling. He was unwilling to let such huge benefits fly away just like that. Therefore, he came to find Xue Xingyuan today, hoping Xue Xingyuan could support him.

In Changshan County, Xue Xingyuan could be said to be the final word. With his support, Li Bokun still had the confidence to fight with Su Xinghui.

Speaking of this, Li Bokun added a few more sentences: "Secretary, this looks like he's making things difficult for me, but actually this kid wants to use this to establish his authority. This is not putting you in his eyes. He didn't give you face the first day he came. This is outrageous. If he isn't managed, won't he be up in the sky later?"

How could Xue Xingyuan not know Li Bokun's little thoughts? He snorted and said, "I think that kid didn't do anything wrong this time. Your brother-in-law should be knocked into shape. Has he drilled into the money hole? Where did he put safety production and labor protection? He's even more black-hearted than the capitalists before liberation! I didn't see it, but if I had seen it, I would have shut him down too!"

Li Bokun was suddenly dumbfounded. He didn't expect Xue Xingyuan to say this. You have to know that Xue Xingyuan was the most overbearing and protective of his own, and Xue Xingyuan also hated this Su Xinghui. He originally thought that if he said this, Xue Xingyuan would definitely back him up.
