~5 min read 986 words

Li Shanlin saw Su Xinghui and didn't go out anymore. He pulled Su Xinghui and walked toward the elevator and said: "I originally had something to do, but since you are here, I naturally won't go anywhere. I will accompany you this afternoon. Let's go, let's go to my office and sit."

The two got on the elevator, and Li Shanlin asked: "County Magistrate Su, do you have anything to do here today?"

Su Xinghui said: "I came here intending to find Chen Shuji and you to discuss something with you."

Li Shanlin said: "Discuss what?"

Su Xinghui said: "I plan to select a group of young cadres in our Chongjin County to come to Shangjun County to visit and inspect, and to learn from the advanced experience of Shangjun County."

Li Shanlin said: "Hi, what advanced experience is there to learn in our Shangjun County? Isn't the experience of our Shangjun County all brought out by you? You can just teach them directly!"

The advanced experience of Shangjun County in developing the economy was indeed brought out by Su Xinghui. Li Shanlin was not wrong about this.

Su Xinghui said: "I can teach them, but just talking is useless. It's best to see it on the spot. This is more intuitive, and the impression will be deeper. Therefore, letting them come to Shangjun County to take a look is the best."

Li Shanlin nodded and said: "Okay, just let them come. We will cover all their food and lodging expenses in our county."

While speaking, the elevator reached the floor of Li Shanlin's office. The two got off the elevator. Li Shanlin brought Su Xinghui to his office, made tea for Su Xinghui, and then dialed a phone call to Chen Hongfu's office.

Chen Hongfu was in his office. As soon as he picked up the phone, Li Shanlin said: "Secretary, tell you a piece of good news, County Magistrate Su is here."

Chen Hongfu said happily: "Is that so? Comrade Xinghui is here?"

Li Shanlin said: "Yes, he is in my office now."

Chen Hongfu said: "Then I'll go to your office."

Li Shanlin said: "How can that be? I'll go to your office with County Magistrate Su now, it's just upstairs."

After hanging up the phone, Li Shanlin said: "County Magistrate Su, then I will go to Chen Shuji's office with you, it's just upstairs."

Su Xinghui nodded. He stood up and went upstairs with Li Shanlin, and came to the door of Chen Hongfu's office. Chen Hongfu had already opened the door and was standing at the door waiting for them.

Su Xinghui hurried a few steps, stepped forward, and held Chen Hongfu's hand and said: "Chen Shuji, hello!"

Chen Hongfu nodded with a smile and said: "Xinghui, hello, haven't seen you for a long time."

Su Xinghui said: "Yes, it's too far from Shangjun now, it's not easy to come back once."

Chen Hongfu said: "Come in and sit."

Su Xinghui and Li Shanlin entered the door together and sat on the sofa. Li Shanlin rushed to make another cup of tea for Su Xinghui, then refilled the water in Chen Hongfu's cup, and then sat down.

Chen Hongfu said: "Comrade Xinghui, I heard that you are doing very well in Chongjin County!"

Su Xinghui said: "It's not bad."

Li Shanlin said: "Gold shines wherever it is. County Magistrate Su is naturally doing well."

Su Xinghui said: "Chen Shuji, I came here this time and wanted to ask you for something."

Chen Hongfu said: "Don't use the word 'ask'. Whatever it is, just say it. As long as we can do it, we will definitely help you."

Su Xinghui then told Chen Hongfu about his idea of wanting to select a group of young cadres to come to Shangjun County for a visit and inspection. Chen Hongfu nodded as soon as he heard it and said: "This is no problem. Our Shangjun County warmly welcomes and strongly supports it. County Magistrate, you have to support the funding aspect."

Li Shanlin laughed: "This is no problem. I just told County Magistrate Su that the food and lodging expenses for the cadres who come to inspect will be covered by our Shangjun County, as a counterpart support for a brother county."

Chen Hongfu nodded and said: "That's good. Chongjin County will be our Shangjun County's brother county from now on."

For Chen Hongfu, his gratitude to Su Xinghui is self-evident. A party secretary of Meng Hu Ling Township, in just five years, can become the current party secretary of Shangjun County, and a member of the Standing Committee of the Yulin Municipal Party Committee, becoming a deputy-department-level cadre. It can be said that he completely borrowed Su Xinghui's light.

Chen Hongfu, this person, has decent personal integrity, but his ability is indeed mediocre, and he has no powerful support in officialdom. Originally, he had no future to speak of, but at several key nodes, it was because of Su Xinghui that he rose to his current position smoothly.

Not to mention Su Xinghui requesting such a small thing, even if it were ten times more difficult, he would find a way to help Su Xinghui complete it.

This matter was settled, and the three of them talked for a while longer. Su Xinghui stood up to say goodbye. Chen Hongfu said: "How can that be? You must eat a meal here. Shanlin, today we privately treat Comrade Xinghui to dinner, not afraid of exceeding the standard."

Li Shanlin nodded in agreement. Su Xinghui said: "Chen Shuji, County Magistrate Li, I haven't been home for a long time, and I promised to accompany my parents for dinner tonight. I'll eat with you next time I come."

The two could also understand Su Xinghui's filial piety. They told Su Xinghui to find them to drink next time he came, and then let Su Xinghui go.
