Chapter 2701

~8 min read 1,489 words

Xing Guodong suddenly parachuted to Yinshan County to be this county magistrate, so naturally many people were unhappy. Originally, it was not easy for a county magistrate position to be vacant in the county, and those who considered themselves qualified to covet this county magistrate position were naturally all gearing up, wanting to fight for this position.

They fought for this county magistrate position, and the people behind them had the opportunity to fight for the positions left behind after they became county magistrates, and so on. In short, a county magistrate position being vacant might be a process of a major reshuffle in officialdom, allowing many people's positions to move forward one step.

Don't underestimate this one step. For many people, this is a critical step. If you miss one step, every step will not keep up.

Just when they were trying their best to fight for this county magistrate, the city suddenly announced that a parachuted county magistrate had come. Who could be happy in their hearts? This immediately cut off their efforts and let them wait for a few more years. Who could accept this result?

Therefore, it is perfectly normal for those people to have hostility towards Xing Guodong, and their style of doing things in the county is relatively direct. They might show their faces to Xing Guodong, which is why Xing Guodong would say such words.

Su Xinghui asked with a smile: "Then do you have pressure?"

Xing Guodong said: "Saying there is no pressure is naturally a lie. But I am already fighting with my back to the river now. No matter how much pressure there is, I have to hold on. In any case, I have to fight a bloody path here."

There is a murderous aura in Xing Guodong's words, but he is indeed fighting with his back to the river. Being transferred from the comfortable unit of the Policy Research Office to this bitter and cold place of Baozhou, following Su Xinghui, he indeed had no way back. If he failed here, his end would be very miserable.

Therefore, he only had one road to Huashan, which was to follow Su Xinghui, overcome obstacles, and fight a bloody path. Besides this, there was no other way.

Listening to Xing Guodong's murderous words, Su Xinghui nodded slightly and said: "It's good that you have such understanding. When I went to Chongjin County alone, my situation was about the same as yours now, which can be said to be enemies everywhere. But don't be afraid, believe that you are stronger than them. Besides, I am still behind you."

Xing Guodong nodded and smiled: "It is precisely because you are behind me that I can be so motivated."

Su Xinghui stood up and said: "Then let's go out and find a place to eat."

Xing Guodong stood up quickly, and Xia Song also stood up and said: "Mayor Su, do you need to call Zhang Heping to bring the car?"

Su Xinghui pondered for a moment and said: "No need, let's just go out and turn around ourselves."

In the current situation where the situation is unclear, Su Xinghui does not hope to bring unfamiliar people by his side, which will make him uncomfortable, and many words cannot be said. Therefore, he would rather go out and turn around himself, which is also considered familiarizing himself with Baozhou City.

The three of them went out together. After going out, Bian Shuangxi was standing at the other end of the corridor. Seeing Su Xinghui and the others coming out, he quickly greeted them and said: "Is Mayor Su going out?"

Su Xinghui said casually: "County Magistrate Xing is here, and we are going out to eat together."

Bian Shuangxi said: "Then shall I arrange a table for you at the Municipal Government Guest House?"

Su Xinghui smiled and said: "No need, Director Bian. We will just eat something on the streets of Baozhou City, which is also considered experiencing the characteristics of Baozhou City."

Bian Shuangxi also said: "Then I will let Xiao Zhang bring the car. He is a local, and he knows where the food is delicious. Let him be your guide."

Su Xinghui shook his head and said: "No need, I will just turn around on the street, which is also good for familiarizing myself with the terrain of Baozhou City."

Su Xinghui's tone was unquestionable, so Bian Shuangxi could only nod and say: "Then pay attention to safety."

Su Xinghui asked: "Oh, is the public security in Baozhou City not good?"

How could Bian Shuangxi say that the public security in Baozhou City was not good? He smiled and said: "No, the public security in Baozhou City is still not bad. It's just that Baozhou people have bad tempers and are a bit impatient, so I'm afraid you will have any conflicts with others."

Su Xinghui said: "Oh, is that so? Then you can rest assured. We are just eating something and will not have any conflicts with others."

Bian Shuangxi said: "Mayor Su, then you still pay attention. If there is anything, call me at any time."

Su Xinghui nodded with a smile and said: "Okay, then thank you!"

After finishing speaking, the three of Su Xinghui went downstairs. Bian Shuangxi's face was uncertain. Watching the three go downstairs, he walked towards Mayor Wei Ziming's office.

Baozhou Municipal Government is located in Baozhou District, which is one of the two districts under Baozhou City. The urban construction level of Baozhou District is average, and it seems to have stayed ten years ago. Very few buildings can exceed eight floors.

Although it is only six o'clock now, the sky here has already turned completely black. Street lights were lit on the side of the road, but even these street lights were not very bright, appearing very dim.

It is now off-work time, and there are still many pedestrians on the street. Some are walking forward in a hurry, some are riding bicycles, and some are waiting for the bus on the side of the road. These people made the current Baozhou have some vitality.

Of course, there are also municipal government staff among these people who get off work, but no one recognizes Su Xinghui.

After all, Su Xinghui arrived today and hasn't met most of the staff. Now that it is late, because of the cold, Su Xinghui also turned up his collar, so it is difficult for people to recognize this appearance.

The three of Su Xinghui also had no specific direction, so they walked randomly to the east for a distance. They didn't walk fast, and after walking out for more than a kilometer, they saw some roadside stalls selling some barbecue, as well as stir-fried dishes. Although the weather is already quite cold now, the business of these roadside stalls is still not bad, and many people are eating.

Su Xinghui said: "How about eating here?"

Xing Guodong was a bit hesitant. He felt that the environment here was too poor and did not match Su Xinghui's identity. However, seeing Su Xinghui had already walked towards an empty table, he could only follow.

The three sat down at the empty table, and a young girl came over with a menu and asked what they wanted to eat.

This young girl is quite tall, at least over 1.7 meters. Although the weather is already very cold, close to zero degrees, she is still wearing a thin jacket, revealing long legs, and has a beautiful face. It can truly be said that she is youthful and invincible.

Su Xinghui is not a person who flirts, but seeing such a youthful girl, he also felt pleasing to the eye. He asked: "What delicious food do you have here?"

The girl heard that Su Xinghui was speaking Mandarin, so she also used pleasant Mandarin to say: "We have a lot of delicious things here. Grilled meat skewers, grilled lamb, grilled squid, grilled steamed buns, grilled chives, green peppers, eggplants, etc. The best is grilled lamb kidney, guaranteed that you will want a second time after eating it once."

A young man at the next table smiled and said: "Xiao Man, what's so good about this grilled lamb kidney? You should tell these big brothers well, otherwise those who haven't eaten it don't know it's good."

Xiao Man blushed and said: "You'll know after eating it, no need for me to say."

Those young people at the next table were all laughing, joking with Xiao Man, but obviously there was no malice, so Xiao Man didn't really get angry.

Su Xinghui said: "Then you bring up all the delicious things you have here, and bring a bottle of wine, and a plate of peanuts."

As soon as Xiao Man heard this, this guest seemed quite generous. She said happily: "Okay, then please wait a moment, we will serve you immediately."
