Chapter 776

Su Xinghui stood up and said, "I'm going now. I also have to declare and pay taxes."

Qi Jian nodded, "Then drive a car, it's safer."

Su Xinghui took the contract and the money downstairs, got a car key from the Party and Government Office, drove a car, and went to the Local Taxation Office first to declare and pay taxes.

The staff of the Pengjiawan Town Local Taxation Office had never seen any individual take the initiative to declare and pay taxes. Seeing that it was the town mayor who came to declare and pay taxes, they were all nervous and busy looking for relevant regulations. Wang Houde, the director of the Local Taxation Office, came out to accompany Su Xinghui and talk.

After a few minutes, the staff found the relevant clauses, helped Su Xinghui handle the procedures, and issued a bill. Su Xinghui paid 28,800 in taxes according to the regulations.

Wang Houde laughed, "Town Mayor, you are truly selfless and of high virtue and great prestige. You took the initiative to pay so much tax. I have never seen anyone take the initiative to declare and pay taxes. It seems that our Local Taxation Office has to send a banner of 'Tax Payment Model' to the Town Mayor."

Listening to Wang Houde's inappropriate flattery, Su Xinghui frowned and said, "Old Wang, you must not do this. If you do this, I will definitely not accept it. It makes it look like it's not proper!"

Hearing Su Xinghui's tone was very severe, Wang Houde shivered. He knew that Su Xinghui's character was that he didn't like to hear empty words. Since he said he wouldn't accept it, he definitely wouldn't accept it. He shouldn't flatter him and end up in trouble.

He thought to himself, maybe Town Mayor Su didn't want others to know that he had such a large income. Therefore, he nodded and said, "Town Mayor, I understand."

Su Xinghui didn't care what he understood. He went out, drove to the business office of the Agricultural Bank, and deposited the remaining 150,000-plus into his savings account. Adding the original money in the savings account, his balance was now over 157,000, not far from 160,000.

He planned to pay Xu Haimin back as soon as he saved up 160,000. He didn't like owing people money.

That day, Su Xinghui called Lu Xiaoya and said he would go to Jiangcheng to see her this Sunday. Lu Xiaoya was overjoyed after hearing this. She said she wouldn't go anywhere on Sunday and would wait for him at home, telling him to go early.

Su Xinghui looked at the calendar. Two days after this Sunday was the Mid-Autumn Festival. In Hudong Province, the Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Spring Festival were very important days, and all required sending festival gifts to the partner's family. The Dragon Boat Festival had long passed, so he wouldn't mention it. For this Mid-Autumn Festival, he had to send some gifts.

He asked Lu Xiaoya what her father and mother liked. Lu Xiaoya said, "My dad likes to drink, but my mom doesn't have any hobbies. She usually likes to watch TV and read books. You can decide for yourself, don't buy anything too valuable."

Su Xinghui thought that if Lu Zhenghong liked to drink, it would be easy to handle. He could just buy two cases of liquor from the Pengjiawan Winery and send them over. However, it was troublesome that Song Qiaoli didn't have any hobbies. He couldn't send some women's supplies to his future mother-in-law, could he?

After thinking about it, Su Xinghui said, "Alright, then I'll prepare the gifts myself."

After hanging up the phone, Su Xinghui called Min Tong, "Min Tong, are you going home this Sunday?"

Min Tong said, "Of course I'm going home. Chen Xiaomeng told me long ago that the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, and I need to prepare festival gifts."

Su Xinghui said, "Then what day are you going back?"

Min Tong said, "Saturday afternoon. Why? Are you also going to Jiangcheng to send festival gifts?"

Su Xinghui said, "You're smart, you guessed it. Then bring me to Jiangcheng when you pass through Pengjiawan on Saturday."

Min Tong laughed, "No problem, it's on the way anyway."

Su Xinghui said, "Also, go to the Quanjie Pharmaceutical Factory and help me buy some health products suitable for women that nourish and beautify the skin. I'll take them as gifts for Xiaoya's mother."

Min Tong said, "You are very thoughtful. Why didn't I think of that? Hearing you say this, I can also buy some health products for my mother-in-law. She will definitely be very happy."

Su Xinghui said, "Then thank you. By the way, buy some of that chrysanthemum tea too."

Min Tong said, "Don't worry, I'll handle everything."

After calling Min Tong, Su Xinghui went to ask Qi Jian for leave. After all, it was nominally still the flood season. Although general staff had resumed their holidays, he, as the town mayor, still had to ask Qi Jian for leave if he wanted to leave the town on the weekend.

Qi Jian heard that he was going to Jiangcheng on Sunday and readily agreed, "Comrade Xinghui, are you going to see your girlfriend? That's right, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, so you should go to send festival gifts. Go ahead, I will stay in the town this Sunday, don't worry."

Su Xinghui nodded and thanked Qi Jian. Qi Jian asked again, "By the way, do you want to take one of the town's cars? It's more convenient to go to Jiangcheng."

Su Xinghui said, "Forget about driving. After all, it's still the flood season. I can't occupy the official car for so long for private matters. What if the town needs it? A classmate of mine is going to Jiangcheng on the way, and he will bring me along."

Qi Jian said, "Alright, go ahead."

During the lunch break that day, Su Xinghui went to the winery again and asked Chen Xiangui to buy two cases of 30-year-old Pengwan Daqu. After paying the money, he moved them back to his dormitory, preparing to take them to Jiangcheng on the weekend.

Since Lu Zhenghong liked to drink, he would bring him some good liquor. This was brewed from pure grain and was not the same as those "famous liquors" blended with alcohol and essence. This kind of grain liquor was not so harmful to the body. After all, Lu Zhenghong was his future father-in-law.

After preparing everything, Su Xinghui waited for Min Tong to come on Saturday afternoon.
