Chapter 3990: Returning to Xingfu

Now, the reconstruction assistance working group had completed the bidding work for several post-disaster reconstruction projects, and these projects had already started construction. It was expected that by the first half of next year, several schools and hospitals would stand again in Xingfu County, and some residential housing for residents would also be built. As for infrastructure such as water, electricity, and roads, they were also priority objects for restoration and reconstruction.

Of course, party and government office facilities were not within the scope of counterpart assistance. This part of the facilities was built with funds allocated by the central and provincial finances of Chuanxi Province, and these facilities also started construction at the same time.

By the first half of next year, Xingfu County town would basically be able to restore its basic functions, and the enterprises invested in by investors would also basically be completed and put into production by the first half of next year.

Seeing Xingfu County town becoming more and more prosperous and restoring its vitality, He Fusheng couldn't be happier.

And what made He Fusheng even happier was that in late October, Su Xinghui came to Xingfu County.

Su Xinghui coming to Xingfu County this time was, of course, because Linshan City was assisting Xingfu County town. He was here to visit the reconstruction assistance working group of Linshan City and inspect their work, and he also took the opportunity to visit old friends like He Fusheng.

Su Xinghui coming to Xingfu County had the main purpose of inspecting the work of the Linshan reconstruction assistance working group, so he came here in an official capacity this time. When passing through Shudu, Xi Xudu met with Su Xinghui and then sent Cai Jingsheng to accompany him.

Su Xinghui's status was not ordinary, and their Linshan City had taken on the heaviest burden this time, so Xi Xudu certainly wouldn't neglect him. He basically treated Su Xinghui with an equal attitude.

Xi Xudu was very enthusiastic toward Su Xinghui. If it weren't for the fact that the reconstruction tasks on his shoulders were also very heavy, he would have planned to accompany Su Xinghui to Xingfu County.

Xi Xudu wanted to hold a welcome banquet for Su Xinghui, but Su Xinghui politely declined. Xi Xudu also knew that now was not a good time for drinking, so he let it go. He told Cai Jingsheng to make sure to accompany Su Xinghui well and sent several cars for Su Xinghui and his group to use, as they had come by plane and hadn't brought cars.

Su Xinghui bid farewell to Xi Xudu and went to Xingfu County with Cai Jingsheng. Accompanying him were Zhai Yingjie, Ding Qingyong, Dong Ziqian, and several others. They also missed Xingfu County, as they had participated in rescue efforts there for so long.

Arriving at Xingfu County town, their motorcade drove straight into the camp of the Yanbei Province reconstruction assistance working group. He Fusheng's camp was right next door. He had already received a call from Cai Jingsheng saying that Su Xinghui was coming, and he was waiting there with several county leaders who were familiar with Su Xinghui.

As soon as Su Xinghui and his group got out of the car, He Fusheng laughed and greeted them. He said to Su Xinghui, "Mayor Su, I've missed you to death!"

Su Xinghui extended his right hand to He Fusheng and smiled, "Brother He, have you been well?"

He Fusheng said, "Don't call me that, I can't afford it. Just call me Old He, that's fine."

Su Xinghui didn't stand on ceremony. He shook hands with He Fusheng and then touched his arm, saying, "Old He, your injury is healed, right?"

He Fusheng patted his arm and moved it a few times, laughing loudly, "Look, isn't it completely healed? Not a single aftereffect left, completely the same as a healthy person."

Su Xinghui said happily, "Old He, that's great!"

Su Xinghui was truly happy. During those days participating in rescue efforts in Xingfu County, he had forged a deep friendship with He Fusheng and the others. Seeing He Fusheng's injury healed so thoroughly, he felt relieved.

Other county leaders familiar with Su Xinghui also came up to exchange pleasantries. At this time, members of the Yanbei Province reconstruction assistance working group also came over. Hearing that Su Xinghui had arrived, they all came to pay their respects.

Leading them was Jin Hao. It was his first time meeting Su Xinghui. Chai Yongxin introduced Jin Hao's identity. Su Xinghui took the initiative to extend his right hand to Jin Hao, "Team Leader Jin, very happy to meet you."

Jin Hao hurriedly extended both hands, shook Su Xinghui's hand together, and shook it up and down, saying, "Mayor Su, I am also very happy to meet you. Since coming here, I have long admired your great name. I heard you saved many people here."

Su Xinghui smiled faintly, "That's all in the past. By the way, where is Team Leader Cao?"

Jin Hao was a bit embarrassed. Cao Yuanhao was still sleeping soundly in his prefabricated house at this time. He had already sent someone to call him, but it wouldn't be that fast for Cao Yuanhao to get up; it would take at least a few minutes. Hearing that Su Xinghui had arrived, they didn't dare to wait for Cao Yuanhao and all rushed over to see Su Xinghui as fast as they could.

Such a thing was ultimately detrimental to the image of Yanbei Province. In front of He Fusheng and the others, Jin Hao couldn't say it directly, so he said to Su Xinghui, "Team Leader Cao is probably reading documents in his prefabricated house. I've sent someone to call him; he should be here soon."

Whether Cao Yuanhao came or not, Su Xinghui didn't care, so he nodded and said, "Alright, let's go to the conference room and sit for a while."

They went together to a large prefabricated house that served as a conference room. This house had a large conference table surrounded by a circle of chairs, which could seat dozens of people.

Jin Hao let Su Xinghui sit in the main seat, and Su Xinghui asked some questions casually. He was asking about the work situation of the reconstruction assistance working group.

Actually, Su Xinghui was the Mayor of Linshan, and Jin Hao was the leader of the Yanbei Province reconstruction assistance working group. Originally, there was no need to report the situation to Su Xinghui, and Su Xinghui was also here to inspect the work of the Linshan reconstruction assistance working group. However, Jin Hao still reported to Su Xinghui in an orderly manner.

Jin Hao knew that he could offend Cao Yuanhao, but he absolutely could not offend Su Xinghui. Su Xinghui's background was astonishing, and Provincial Party Secretary Fang also appreciated him very much. If he offended Su Xinghui, he would be miserable. Besides, Su Xinghui's rank was far higher than his, so he had no psychological burden reporting work to Su Xinghui.

Jin Hao reported the work to Su Xinghui, and He Fusheng also said many good things about Jin Hao and Chai Yongxin on the side. Jin Hao and Chai Yongxin's work attitude and style were indeed beyond reproach. During the hottest months in Chuanxi Province, they braved the scorching sun every day to inspect post-disaster reconstruction sites. Now they were much darker and thinner than when they first arrived.

After about ten minutes, Cao Yuanhao finally came over. He had managed to put on his clothes, washed his face, and combed his hair, and his appearance was not bad. However, there was an indifferent expression on his face.

So what if Su Xinghui came? Did he have to greet him with such enthusiasm? Cao Yuanhao had always hated Su Xinghui to the bone, so how could he be that enthusiastic?

Therefore, after getting up, he deliberately delayed for another ten minutes before coming over.

Regarding Cao Yuanhao's attitude, Su Xinghui didn't take offense. He greeted him, "Comrade Yuanhao, I represent the Linshan Municipal Party Committee to visit you all. You have worked hard here!"

Cao Yuanhao laughed, "Mayor Su, then I must thank you!"

Cao Yuanhao was very dissatisfied with Su Xinghui calling him "Comrade Yuanhao" in such a casual manner, but there was nothing he could do. Su Xinghui's rank was indeed higher than his, so there was nothing inappropriate about him calling him that. Therefore, he could only use this tone to express his dissatisfaction with Su Xinghui.

Cai Jingsheng and He Fusheng didn't know much about the relationship between Cao Yuanhao and Su Xinghui. He Fusheng had always been so polite to Cao Yuanhao only for Su Xinghui's sake. But now they could see that the relationship between Cao Yuanhao and Su Xinghui was probably not very good. ===== CHAPTER 3992 =====
