The next day, Meng Jinxing suddenly received a call from Xia Minghan, asking him if he had time to come to Dujiang immediately?

Although Meng Jinxing was really busy with many things at the moment, he had to pay attention to Xia Minghan's summons and immediately agreed. Then he explained the work to Chen Weimin, Zhang Jizhen and others, and after talking to He Qifeng on the phone, he hurried there and

Arrive in Dujiang around 5pm.

As agreed in advance, they were to meet at the Garden City Hotel at six o'clock. Seeing that there was still some time left, Meng Jinxing decided to go home first.

Meng Qingping's job is already a pension, and he gets off work very punctually. When Meng Jinxing arrived, he was busy in the kitchen. He was extremely surprised that his son came home suddenly. He raised his wet hands and asked Meng Jinxing: "What's the matter?"

Come back at this time, is there anything wrong?"

"I was called here by Uncle Xia. I see there is still some time before the appointment, so I will come back and take a look first."

"You kid, since you made an appointment, go ahead and get ready. Why are you coming back?" Meng Qingping glared at his son and returned to the kitchen.

Meng Jinxing followed with a chuckle and wanted to join hands, but was pushed away, "Stop making trouble. How are you doing lately?"

"It's quite busy." Meng Jinxing couldn't help, so he took a pair of chopsticks and stuffed a tiger-skin pepper into his mouth, sucked it and continued to report, "Our township is going to merge with the other two townships. It turns out that the township chief arrested

Well, there’s been a lot going on lately anyway.”

Meng Qingping swung the spatula in his hand and glanced at his son, "It's not a trivial matter. Seeing how relaxed you said it, I should be able to handle it now."

"I'm just taking advantage of the situation. If I have to deal with it, I will never be able to cope with it."

Meng Jinxing lowered his head and was still picking something to eat, but Meng Qingping slowed down because of his words, "You are much more mature."

Meng Jinxing immediately raised his head when he heard the words, "Is there any?"

Meng Qingping focused on cooking again, "Why do you know Xia Minghan asked you to come back?"

"I don't know. I suddenly got a call this morning asking me to come back." He put down his chopsticks and looked at his father and asked, "Is there any news in the province recently?"

Meng Qingping put the vegetables into the basin, turned off the fire, and walked to the restaurant with the dishes in his hand. He said, "I heard that you are going to do some tourism development there and report to the province for some key projects." He said and entered.

After a while, he took out a newspaper from the study room, clicked on the above report and said, "This is it. I heard that the provincial leaders were very interested in it."

Meng Jinxing was stunned for a moment. He took the newspaper and took a closer look. It was an in-depth report on the development of Changfeng written by Zhong Hui. It specifically mentioned the tourism development of Sangyu, and the prospects depicted were very bright, far exceeding Meng Jinxing's imagination.

, there is a tendency to eliminate them once they fall behind in development.

Meng Qingping saw him looking at him with his eyebrows knitted together, so he asked, "Isn't that the case?"

Meng Jinxing closed the newspaper and said with a wry smile: "Publicity is a good thing. It can make the leaders at the top pay attention to it and even give appropriate support. The problem is that the consequence of excessive exaggeration is weak successors!"

Meng Qingping said with a smile: "This is what propaganda wants! When the project is proposed at this time, doesn't it mean that it will be regarded as a political achievement and credited to some people? As for whether it can be completed, that is the future.

Who cares about other people’s affairs?”

Meng Jinxing curled his lips and said: "This is what politicians did, not politicians."

Meng Qingping was stunned for a moment, then said: "Xiao Xing, officialdom has no room for idealism!"

"Dad, this is not idealism, this is reality!" He looked at his watch and said, "Let's talk about this issue when we have time. I have to go."

"Will you come back to sleep tonight?"

"decide as things go."

Meng Jinxing hurried out and rushed to Garden City. He entered the private room a quarter of an hour earlier than the agreed time and asked for a pot of tea to wait for Xia Minghan.

At ten past six o'clock, Xia Minghan walked into the private room, and Liu Feiyang appeared with him.

Meng Jinxing was very surprised and stood up to greet him warmly.

"Does it feel very sudden?" Liu Feiyang asked with a smile.

"A bit." Meng Jinxing didn't hide it either.

"I went to see Xiaoxia this morning. I talked about Sang Yu and you, so I called you here as soon as I got interested." Liu Feiyang chuckled and took the menu from the waiter, passed it to Meng Jinxing and said, "Pick a few.

I like it! I’ll have three drinks first when I get back, thank you for coming all the way!”

Meng Jinxing handed back the menu with a smile and said with a smile: "It's better to ask Director Liu and Uncle Xia to order. I don't have taboos."

Liu Feiyang took back the menu with a smile, without asking for Xia Minghan's opinion, he ordered a few dishes and asked the waiter to bring up the wine he had stored.

Xia Minghan answered a few calls when he came in. It wasn't until Meng Jinxing poured tea for them all that he sat down and said to Liu Feiyang, "Brother, I realized that it is better not to have this mobile phone than not to have it!"

"How do you say it?" Liu Feiyang asked shaking his napkin.

"You can get caught wherever you go!" Xia Minghan pointed at Meng Jinxing and said, "It's better to be like Jinxing and the others. There are no signals in the mountains and people are quieter!"

Liu Feiyang laughed and said: "Both have advantages and disadvantages. For example, when Jinxing rescued Yaqin, wouldn't it have saved a lot of trouble if he had a mobile phone by his side? It is very likely that he would not have to be seriously injured and hospitalized."

Xia Minghan then formally asked Meng Jinxing: "Are your injuries healed?"

"Thank you, Uncle Xia. It's all over now." He paused and said, "Uncle Xia, please help me hide this from my family."

"You didn't tell your family?" Xia Minghan looked at him with wide eyes, "That's right. Water far away can't save the fire nearby, so why not let them worry."

Meng Jinxing smiled.

When the food was served and the waiter poured the wine, Liu Feiyang really wanted to respect Meng Jinxing, but Meng Jinxing quickly took the cup and said he didn't dare. Seeing that he insisted, Meng Jinxing had to say that he would drink three glasses with him.

After the three of them bowed to each other, they all lit up cigarettes and chatted while eating.

When it comes to chatting, Meng Jinxing basically only talks with his ears but not his mouth. He only replies when asked.

What Xia Minghan and Liu Feiyang discussed were basically the recent official news in the province. Occasionally Liu Feiyang mentioned a few trends in Beijing. Neither of them was eager to explain the purpose of calling Meng Jinxing.

Halfway through the dinner, Liu Feiyang suddenly mentioned that he had heard that Changfeng County was planning to evacuate villages and merge them into towns, and asked Meng Jinxing if there were any rumors in this regard.

Meng Jinxing said with a smile: "If there is any news about this, Uncle Xia should know it before I do."

Xia Minghan chuckled and continued: "Be careful, I will grow quickly after half a year of training!"

"That's also the result of Uncle Xia's willingness to teach me." Meng Jinxing said.

"This kid!" Xia Minghan pointed at Liu Feiyang and Meng Jinxing, "He's a total sycophant!"

"I speak from the bottom of my heart." Meng Jinxing said.

"Okay, I speak from the bottom of my heart!" Xia Minghan said, "Then tell me, how confident are you in your tourism development in Sangyu? I read the report written by Zhong Hui. It has broad prospects, but it is not easy to do it well!"

Zhong Hui's article exaggerated this point. Not only Meng Jinxing could see it, but Xia Minghan also understood it clearly before he said this. However, Meng Jinxing knew that he could not be cowardly at this time and must show his absolute commitment to the development of Sangyu.

Only with confidence can he win Xia Minghan's full support for him when he withdraws from the countryside and merges with the town.

At the same time, he must also have a full estimate of this confidence. It is easy to boast in Haikou. If he fails to achieve results, he will die even more ugly than if he does not express his stance.

He pondered for a while before looking at Xia Minghan and said: "If the organization gives me three years, I can let Sangyu complete the process of self-sufficiency by relying on its development advantages and no longer ask for poverty alleviation support from departments at all levels! If I are given five years

, Sangyu may be at the forefront of Changfeng’s economic rankings.”

Xia Minghan looked at Meng Jinxing for a long time, then turned to look at Liu Feiyang and said, "Brother, have you regained your confidence in Sang Yu?"

Liu Feiyang smiled lightly and said: "Rebuilding confidence does not depend on just a word from Chief Meng. However, I am willing to wait and see!"

The topic did not go any further. From the conversation between the two of them, Meng Jinxing roughly guessed that Zhong Hui's report and the move to withdraw from the village and merge it with the town had caused Liu Feiyang to waver in investing in Sangyu. Xia Minghan today

The urgent summons to Dujiang seemed to be to restore Liu Feiyang's confidence.

His speculation was soon confirmed by Xia Minghan himself.

After the meal, Liu Feiyang left first, and Meng Jinxing accompanied Xia Minghan to the bathing center in Garden City for consumption. The two asked for a secluded double box. After bathing, they talked about the topic again in the box, and Xia Minghan's attitude became open and honest.

"Shencheng has already submitted the application for withdrawing townships and merging towns. This work has been vigorously promoted by the province recently, and the document should be issued soon. I learned about the economic strength of Sangyu among the three townships.

You are the worst, and you are the most junior among the main leaders at the township level currently serving."

He paused and then said, "I have exchanged opinions with Yunshan, and he is still very inclined to let you serve as the mayor, but this will cause a lot of problems. If this is the result, how do you feel about the consequences of this?

You must also be mentally prepared for a series of questions. Do you have the confidence to do a good job?"

Meng Jinxing said: "Yes. I will do my best to do the job well and not to embarrass you!"

He knew very well that to this day, he could not hide in front of Xia Minghan. No matter how Xia Minghan had put on airs in front of his father, from a big perspective, Xia Minghan had not forgotten his father's past help, and he had also been helping himself.

, he can't pretend to be fake with Xia Minghan.

Xia Minghan nodded and said: "That's good! Xiao Meng, you have grown very fast in the past six months, so fast that even I was surprised. Therefore, uncle wants to remind you that when the power in your hands becomes bigger day by day, you will

Every step you take will involve the interests of the people and affect the image of the organization. You must be cautious and never make a wrong step!"

Meng Jinxing was surprised that Xia Minghan said these words. He couldn't help but think of the scene when he and his father asked him for help. It was hard for him to imagine that Xia Minghan, who could accept his father's money and gifts calmly, would

Such a high level of thought.

However, what he didn't expect was that Xia Minghan stood up at this time, took out a thick envelope from the bag he had been carrying, and gently placed it in front of Meng Jinxing, "This is your father's letter when we first met.

Fallen."
