Chapter 1369

The second day after returning to Shangjun County, Su Xinghui went to see Zhang Kaishan. Zhang Kaishan received him in his office. He even personally poured a cup of tea for Su Xinghui. Su Xinghui wanted to take the teacup from his hand, but Zhang Kaishan smiled and said, "Now that Secretary Su has come, you are a guest. Isn't it only right that I pour you tea?"

Su Xinghui said, "Uncle Zhang, you are making fun of me."

Zhang Kaishan placed the teacup in front of Su Xinghui and said with emotion, "It's a pity. You went to Changshan. If you had stayed in Shangjun for a few more years, Shangjun County would be incredible. It's the Changshan people who are benefiting."

Su Xinghui said, "It doesn't matter, Uncle Zhang. Even if I leave Shangjun, the development of Shangjun County will not slow down."

Zhang Kaishan looked at Su Xinghui and smiled, "Xinghui, I heard that you are also doing very well in Changshan, flourishing. You are currently building roads and raising cattle and sheep, right?"

Su Xinghui said, "It's alright. Changshan County has always had a tradition of raising sheep, but the transportation is inconvenient, so it cannot form an industry. As long as the government organizes it effectively, it can easily form a pillar industry."

Zhang Kaishan said, "Sometimes I really don't know how you have so many good ideas for economic development in your head. This time you went to Changshan, many people were sweating for you, and many people were waiting to see you make a fool of yourself. I didn't expect that as soon as you went, you would stretch your legs and open up a world."

Su Xinghui said, "Just four words: adapt to local conditions. Every place has its advantages and disadvantages, and it is necessary to promote strengths and avoid weaknesses. For example, developing animal husbandry in Pengjiawan is definitely not as good as planting vegetables, and building a steel plant in Changshan County is also a matter of twice the effort for half the result, a thankless task. Inviting experts to take the pulse will tell you what advantages and disadvantages this place has."

Zhang Kaishan nodded and said, "A good 'adapt to local conditions'. It's just that too many people don't understand the meaning of these four words and insist on doing things that are twice the effort for half the result and are eager for quick success and instant benefits."

Su Xinghui said, "That's right. Because of this, the development of many places has taken a detour."

Zhang Kaishan said, "I heard that some leaders in Changshan don't welcome you, right?"

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Isn't this very normal? If I went to Changshan County and everyone welcomed me, that would be strange. Although Changshan County is poor, it also has its own interests. Now, whenever one wants to do some practical things, it is impossible not to touch other people's interests, and naturally, one will offend people."

Zhang Kaishan shook his head and said, "No matter where it is, there will always be people whose selfish motives outweigh their public spirit. You also have to be careful in Changshan County. It is easy to dodge an open spear, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow. Those people's interests have been infringed upon by you, and they will always find ways to drive you away."

Su Xinghui laughed and said, "Driving me away is just right. I can just return to Shangjun County. I don't know if Uncle Zhang still wants me?"

Zhang Kaishan smiled and said, "If you really come back, I will definitely welcome you with open arms!"

The two looked at each other and smiled. Of course, they knew that this was just a joke. There is no turning back once the bow is drawn. Since he chose to go to Changshan, Su Xinghui must make a name for himself there, and Zhang Kaishan would definitely help him with all his might.

He was now a member of the Yulin Municipal Standing Committee, so he could also exert some influence on what happened in Changshan at the level of Yulin City.

Coming out of Zhang Kaishan's office, Su Xinghui went to Zhuangyuan Lane. He hadn't been back to Shangjun County for so long, so of course, he had to go see Elder Hou Guangbi. This old man had given him too much help. If it weren't for him this time, the construction funds for the Changyu Highway wouldn't have been resolved so quickly.

Su Xinghui bought some gifts on the street. These gifts were not expensive, just some ordinary pastries, fruits, nutritional supplements, and the like, but this represented his sincerity.

Arriving at the old Hou residence, the residence was very lively. Hou Guangbi's sons, grandsons, and great-grandsons had all returned from France to spend the New Year with him. It was a whole family. Fortunately, the old residence was large and had several courtyards; otherwise, there would really be no place for so many people to live, and they would have to stay in a hotel.

Su Xinghui came, and Hou Guangbi was very happy. He let Su Xinghui sit opposite him and keep him company. Naturally, someone poured tea for Su Xinghui and placed a plate of fruit in front of him.

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Grandpa Hou, your home is really lively today. Your children and grandchildren have all returned. You must be very happy now, right?"
