When we arrived at the cafeteria, there were not so many people following us. There were two round tables prepared. Qin Songbai was naturally invited to sit down at the first table, followed by Secretary-General Gao Yi and Xu Jinsan, followed closely by Zeng Guoqing and Zhou Kefu.

Afterwards, the other two city leaders also sat down after some humility.

At this time, Lu Changshan was a little embarrassed. He was supposed to be sitting at the main table to accompany him, but Qin Songbai didn't even look at him while standing there. Naturally, the other leaders didn't have time to take care of him. After all, Liu Shan

The town was still his home court, Lu Changshan. So he stared at the only two chairs on the main table and found himself in trouble.

At this time, Ling You walked up behind him and said, "County Magistrate Lu, why don't you take a seat?"

Ling You's sudden sound frightened Lu Changshan, who was already nervous. He turned around and saw that it was Ling You. He was startled at first, then squeezed out a smile and said: "No hurry, no hurry, let the leaders

Let’s sit down first.”

But Ling You didn't give in to him, he directly stretched out his hand to support his arm, came to an empty seat, and moved him to the chair.

Qin Songbai, who was talking to Zeng Guoqing and others, pressed his hands when he saw this scene and said: "Let's all sit down and have a simple meal. There are not so many restrictions."

After that, Lu Changshan had no choice but to sit down, and Ling You sat next to him. Sitting at another table were the secretaries of the leaders and several cadres brought by the provincial and municipal governments, including Huang Guotao and

Li Xiangzuo accompanied me.

After chatting for a while, the dishes were served on the table. They were all local farm dishes and met the specifications. Qin Songbai picked up his chopsticks and joked to everyone: "It's been a while since I've eaten such authentic farm dishes.

Mayor Xiao Ling is treating me to a treat today. Please don’t save money for him and eat more. If it exceeds the limit, it will be deducted from his salary."

When Zeng Guoqing and others heard this, they all laughed in agreement and made fun of Ling You. Halfway through the meal, Qin Songbai put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth. Seeing this, everyone also put down their chopsticks and looked at

Qin Songbai.

Qin Songbai said: "Today is the first time I have come to our Yuchuan City since I took office in Hedong, but I am no stranger to Yuchuan. It was an advanced city in our province in the early years and has many honors.

.”

Hearing this, Zeng Guoqing couldn't help but raise his eyes and glance at Qin Songbai next to him with his peripheral vision, but he didn't dare to look directly at him. He also muttered in his heart that once such words came out, the next step would definitely be "but".

As expected, Qin Songbai looked around the crowd and then continued: "However, the development of Tamagawa City is now deteriorating. There are no outsiders here today, and you don't need to regard my words today as a formal speech.

Use it as a spur."

Having said this, Zeng Guoqing felt a little tense. After all, whether it was a spur or a criticism, he was somewhat embarrassed in front of so many subordinates. At the same time, when he raised his head, he saw the market

Chief Zhou Kefu happened to be eye to eye with him at this time, but Zhou Kefu seemed much more relaxed and seemed to be a little confused about the current situation. Seeing Zhou Kefu's state, Zeng Guoqing couldn't help but frown a little.

Then Qin Songbai looked at Zeng Guoqing. Seeing this, Zeng Guoqing forced out an ugly smile and lowered his head by two points. He heard Qin Songbai say: "The label of being a poor city in 1978 is stuck on my head. Why?"

?" Speaking of this, Qin Songbai looked at Zhou Kefu on the other side: "Can't you pick it off?"

When the two of them heard this, they couldn't help but feel ashamed. Zhou Kefu, who had been slightly relaxed just now, looked at Qin Songbai for a moment, and was instantly suppressed by the strong aura of Qin Songbai, making it difficult to breathe.

He swallowed, didn't dare to say anything, and lowered his head in embarrassment.

Qin Songbai then said: "A poor city has three or four poor counties, and there are countless poor towns and villages below. How many of the central government's policies have been fully implemented? How much of the provincial policies have been understood? We are engaged in development.

When you are watching, you are messing around with the beats; when you are looking at the results, you still hope that you can hit the board with just a hint of skill?"

As he said that, Qin Songbai lowered his head and asked with a displeased look on his face: "Let me look at your shoes. How many times have you stepped on the soil of the grassroots people, even like today?"

After hearing this, everyone present could not help but silently hide their feet under the table.

The atmosphere at the scene was now freezing cold, and not a single person present dared to breathe.

Qin Songbai also looked at everyone with a sullen face. After a while, he sighed: "The industrial foundation of Yuchuan City is weak. That is due to its geographical location. In the early years, it relied entirely on agriculture to produce food. Why can't it be done now? People see

If the food in someone else’s pot is good, it’s okay to be jealous and lose control. How can cadres continue to be confused? The good agricultural economy is in a mess. Just two small broken mountains are almost digging out the groundwater.

He even risked his life to mine; lost the watermelon and picked sesame seeds, and took the shoes to look for his feet;"

Speaking of this, Qin Songbai paused for a moment, then looked at the people who were all drooping and then said: "During this period, Tamagawa City has become famous, and there is a lot of news pouring into my ears.

; The secretary of a county committed suicide by jumping off a building, but now there is no result; a bunch of young men were found in the nightclub, causing rumors to fly all over the Internet; the director of public security lynched state officials, and now he has to sit here and help after recovering from a serious illness.

You go back and look for face; I, Qin Songbai, really have to rely on you to give me face as the governor of Hedong Province." After saying that, he raised his hand and pointed at Ling You, who was sitting opposite him.

Hearing this, the cadres from Yuchuan City and Pinggu County who were present raised their heads and looked at Ling You, and instantly understood in their hearts that Governor Qin was not here for an inspection. He was clearly bringing a board to beat people, but he was also giving Ling You a blow.

Come find a place to visit!

Next, no one present could say a word. Even if they wanted to say something, what should they say? Which one of them could not be true? There is no need to quibble.

No one had even taken a few bites of the meal before their faces were slapped. So when everyone walked out of the cafeteria, some town officials outside couldn't help but secretly said to themselves, what just happened inside?

Leader, why did you go in happily and then come out with a livid face?

After a few simple greetings, Qin Songbai and his party shook hands with everyone before getting in the car and heading back to Songming.

Before leaving, Zeng Guoqing looked at Lu Changshan with a livid face, then glanced at Ling You, and got in the car without saying a word; but Lu Changshan did look at Zhou Kefu meaningfully before leaving, and Zhou Kefu said
Chapter completed!
