Chapter 410

Su Xinghui was moved in his heart, but he still said: "Xia Zhu, this watch is too expensive, I can't accept it. I accept your good intentions."

Xia Zhu was on the verge of tears: "Brother Xinghui, why don't you accept it? Do you dislike me? If it weren't for you helping our family, I don't know which fire pit I would be in now. My dad would definitely still be paralyzed in bed. How could I go to the Canton Fair? Could it be that I bought you a watch and you still won't accept it?"

Xia Shisheng also said: "Yeah, Township Head Su, our whole family owes it to you to have today. This is Xia Zhu's good intention. If you don't accept it, she will be sad."

Looking at Xia Zhu who was so anxious that she was about to cry, Su Xinghui pondered for a moment, then nodded and said: "That's fine, Xia Zhu, then I will accept it. But don't buy me such expensive things in the future. Your family's debts haven't been paid off yet, and you still need to build a new house. Your younger siblings also need to go to school. There are many places to use money."

Hearing Su Xinghui agree to accept the watch, Xia Zhu smiled so much that her eyes curved into crescents. She opened the gift box, took out the watch, put it on Su Xinghui's left wrist, and smiled: "Now it looks more like a Township Head."

Su Xinghui nodded and said: "Thank you, Xia Zhu."

Wearing the watch, Su Xinghui went into the kitchen to cook. Xia Zhu's mother received her daughter's call yesterday and knew she was returning today, so she went to buy a pile of vegetables early in the morning. Su Xinghui cooked a table of dishes, which could be considered welcoming Xia Zhu back.

Returning to the Township Government, Su Xinghui ran to various villages in the past two days, letting their village cadres mobilize the women in the village to go to Zhuzhugou Village to learn to weave bamboo crafts, and then collect materials from there to weave bamboo crafts at home. Although it is impossible to have a large output now, it can be considered to be able to subsidize household expenses.

These village cadres of course all agreed happily. Although various agricultural sideline industries have been developed in each village now, there are really not many jobs suitable for women to do. Being able to weave bamboo crafts to earn money is of course a very good thing.

These days, there are also always people holding various newspapers to ask Su Xinghui if he has talked to the Provincial Party Committee Secretary.

It turns out that what happened at the calligraphy and painting exhibition has appeared in newspapers one after another. In these reports, the name of Meng Hu Ling Township has appeared many times, and the conversation between Gu Shanmin and Su Xinghui has also been reported exactly as it was.

The conversation between the Provincial Party Committee Secretary and Su Xinghui suddenly attracted the attention of many people. From the reports, the Provincial Party Committee Secretary seems to appreciate Su Xinghui and Meng Hu Ling very much and has given high affirmation. This young man must have a boundless future.

For a time, Su Xinghui's name became a name that everyone in the officialdom of Shangjun County knew.

Facing the inquiries of these people, Su Xinghui always said in a low-key manner that he was lucky and happened to be seen by Provincial Party Committee Secretary Gu, so he talked to him for a few words.

But how could others believe it? Various rumors about the relationship between Su Xinghui and the Provincial Party Committee Secretary circulated in the officialdom of Shangjun County.

This also brought a side effect. Originally, the number of people coming to Meng Hu Ling to learn and visit was slowly thinning out, but after this incident, the number of people coming to visit and learn suddenly increased again. And many people came and specifically asked to visit Township Head Su, saying they wanted to learn experience from him.

This made Su Xinghui very annoyed. He simply went to the villages early every morning to avoid the visits of these people. If he just received these people every day, then he might as well not do anything.

Of course, this also brought a positive effect, that is, the neighboring Lingxiang and several townships in Hongshan County have already started preparatory work, preparing to engage in special planting. The two townships in Hongshan County neighboring Meng Hu Ling also set up special breeding farms and introduced some wild boars, pheasants, and bamboo rats from Zhuzhugou to raise.

After consulting with Zhuzhugou Village, they contacted Yu Gaoshan, hoping to sign a buyout contract with him. Yu Gaoshan of course welcomed everyone. This game market is far from saturated. He can now only barely supply some familiar customers. Many people call him to ask for goods, but he cannot supply them. Now that there are new sources of goods, he is begging for it.

On this day, Su Xinghui was inspecting the growth of fruit trees in Taohua Village when he suddenly received a pager call from the Township Government. He returned the call at the Village Committee. The one who paged him was Wan Xing'an, who told Su Xinghui that Executive Deputy County Magistrate Jia Hequn had come, accompanied by an investor, and asked Su Xinghui to return to the Township Government immediately.

Jia Hequn? This is the Executive Deputy County Magistrate newly transferred from the city after the officialdom earthquake in Shangjun County last time. He was originally the Deputy Director of the City Commercial Bureau. Su Xinghui doesn't know much about this person because he didn't have the experience of serving in Shangjun County in his previous life.

However, Jia Hequn brought an investor to the countryside as soon as he took office, so he should also be a person with good ability.

Su Xinghui rushed back to the Township Government immediately. In Dong Jianshu's office, he met Jia Hequn and the investor.

Jia Hequn is a middle-aged man in his forties. His height is relatively tall among the people of Hudong, only a little shorter than Su Xinghui, about one meter seventy-five. He wears gold-rimmed glasses and looks refined.

Dong Jianshu introduced: "Comrade Xinghui, this is County Magistrate Jia."

Su Xinghui had a smile on his face, stretched out his right hand to Jia Hequn, and said: "Hello, County Magistrate Jia!"

Seeing Su Xinghui's waist standing straight without bending at all, Jia Hequn frowned slightly. He was already used to the appearance of subordinates being respectful in front of him. However, in the blink of an eye, a smile returned to his face. He reservedly reached out to shake hands with Su Xinghui and said: "Little Su is really young and promising!"

Jia Hequn timely remembered that Su Xinghui was different from other subordinates, especially since several provincial-level officials appreciated Su Xinghui. Therefore, Jia Hequn forgave Su Xinghui's slightly disrespectful behavior in his heart.

Su Xinghui's gaze fell on the two people beside Jia Hequn: "Who are these two?"

A middle-aged man with a short stature and a somewhat short and fat figure took out a business card and handed it to Su Xinghui, saying: "My humble self is Xiong Ruisong."

Su Xinghui said: "Hello, Mr. Gu Xiong."

He lowered his head and took a look at the business card. The title on the business card was the Chairman of the Ruikang Paper Mill in a certain city in Mindong Province.

Another thin and dry middle-aged man also took out a business card and handed it to Su Xinghui, saying: "My humble self is Qiao Dashu."

The title on Qiao Dashu's business card was the Chairman of the Fuliang Cement Plant in a certain city in Yuedong Province.

After reading these two business cards, Su Xinghui felt a bit drummed in his heart. Jia Hequn wouldn't introduce these two factories to Meng Hu Ling, right?

The pollution of paper mills and cement plants is very serious. This is the nineties, and there is basically no talk of any advanced technology that can control pollution. If these two factories really build factories in Meng Hu Ling, then it is estimated that in less than half a year, the beautiful Meng Hu Ling will be unrecognizable and devastated.

However, Su Xinghui didn't say anything yet. He put away the two business cards calmly and laughed, saying welcome, welcome.

Both sides sat down. Jia Hequn smiled and said: "Comrade Jianshu, Comrade Xinghui, Xiong Zong and President Qiao are my friends. After I took office in Shangjun County, I contacted them. They happened to have a plan to invest and build factories, so they came to our Shangjun County to inspect the investment environment."

Dong Jianshu smiled and said: "Investment matters are now managed by Little Su. Let Little Su talk to them."

Su Xinghui asked: "Xiong Zong, President Qiao, what industry are you planning to invest in this time when you come to Shangjun County?"

Xiong Ruisong said: "Doing business is not as good as doing what you are familiar with. I am still planning to build a paper mill."

Qiao Dashu also nodded and said: "I am planning to build a cement plant."
