Xue Kaiduan did not stop in Deping City for too long, and took a bus to leave after breakfast.

Seeing Xue Kaiduan leave, Li Yuanlang was watching the relevant materials sent by Xu Guangshui to Deping City in the office, and Deputy Mayor Wei Xingfu arrived uninvited.

After sitting down, Li Yuanlang was about to make tea for Wei Xingfu, but Wei Xingfu quickly waved his hand and said, "Mayor Li, you don't have to be busy anymore. I will leave after saying a few words."

Li Yuanlang put down the water cup and sat back on his original position, listening quietly to Wei Xingfu's purpose.

"Mayor Li, Fan Youcheng, the CEO of Jingcheng Chemical, came to me just now and talked about a civil dispute case facing their company."

"Are you talking about Jingcheng Chemical, the leader of our city's chemical enterprises?" Li Yuanlong also learned from the materials that Jingcheng Chemical is a well-known private enterprise in Deping City and is the best in the chemical industry.

The company has nearly a thousand employees and is a major profit and taxpayer in Deping City.

"Yes." Wei Xingfu nodded and said, "Deping Environmental Protection Federation sued Jingcheng Chemical for dumping industrial waste into the Dechun River. The trial has now begun."

"Environmental Protection Case?" Li Yuanlang frowned, "How could such a big Jingcheng Chemical actually dump industrial waste into the river water?"

Wei Xingfu explained: "This case is quite complicated. Jingcheng Chemical commissioned Yuantai Chemical to process more than 4,000 tons of industrial waste. Yuantai Chemical took risks in order to save money and dumped the waste into the Dechun River water."

"Previously, the people involved in Yuantai Chemical had been brought to justice. Now, residents on both sides of the Dechun River commissioned the Deping Environmental Protection Federation to file a public interest lawsuit with the Deping Intermediate People's Court, suing Jingcheng Chemical and Yuantai Chemical. As the producers and handlers, they should compensate more than 300 million yuan in total for the environmental restoration costs of Dechun River."

"Fan Youcheng and the others felt wronged. Yuantai Chemical was dumping the waste, which had nothing to do with them. All the people involved in the case handled by the police were from Yuantai Chemical. From this point alone, it can be clearly judged that Jingcheng Chemical is innocent."

"Also, Fan Youcheng mentioned in his words that if Jingcheng Chemical takes out such a large amount of money, their company's capital chain will have problems, and the company may not be able to lay off employees or close down. Mayor Li, Jingcheng Chemical has thousands of employees. Once this happens, the jobs of thousands of people will not be kept. This is a huge pressure for us."

Li Yuanlang touched his chin, frowned into a bump, and said solemnly: "Comrade Xingfu, environmental protection is the country's major plan, and we should not take it lightly."

"Since Jingcheng Chemical is innocent, we can make it clear in court. We are the municipal government, not the court, and we have no right to decide the outcome."

"Fan Youcheng came to us just to put pressure on us in the name of staying or leaving the employees. Please tell him what I said. We welcome business every minute. Don't do those tricks. We are clever. We don't use this trick!"

Wei Xingfu pondered for a moment and said in embarrassment: "Mayor Li, I understand all these. I am thinking that this civil compensation case has been in court for a month. The judges of the Municipal Intermediate People's Court went to Jingcheng Chemical to understand the situation every three days, which seriously affected the normal work of the company, making Fan Youcheng exhausted and complained."

"I would like to ask you to say hello to the Intermediate People's Court and ask about this case, so that they will always be tempted by Jingcheng Chemical."

Li Yuanlang tapped his fingertips rhythmically on the table and said slowly: "Okay, I will ask Li Peishe of the Intermediate People's Court. However, I still say the same thing. We will not give them unprincipled care just because Jingcheng Chemical is a leading enterprise in the industry."

Having said that, Wei Xingfu did not rush to get up and say goodbye, hesitating but stopping.

"Comrade Xingfu, do you have anything to do?" Li Yuanlang asked with a raised eyebrows.

"Mayor Li, Fan Youcheng is a representative of the provincial and municipal conferences. Considering that you are still acting mayor, I don't want your relationship to be in a mess..."

Li Yuanlang shook his head decisively, "Whether I can become a regular person is the decision of the representatives. I believe that the representatives all have a righteous and upright heart. As for my personal gains and losses, I cannot at the cost of harming the interests of the people, and cannot use power for personal gains and losses. This is my bottom line and principle."

It seems that Li Yuanlang's words surprised Wei Xingfu.

After walking out with great worries, Wei Xingfu returned to his office and said to Fan Youcheng who was on the sofa: "Mr. Fan, I just told Mayor Li about your affairs. He said that if he doesn't buy your account, you must be prepared to respond and not to commit illusions."

Fan Youcheng touched his shiny big back and said disapprovingly: "Mayor Wei, don't be discouraged. Mayor Li has just come. He has to pretend to be a noble person who is not as good as the world and do it for outsiders to see. There is no need to worry about this matter. I will find a chance to meet Mayor Li for a while."

After saying that, Fan Youcheng stood up, shook hands with Wei Xingfu and said goodbye, "Mayor Wei, I just got an imported fishing rod. If you have time, go to my place to fish. Let me tell you that this fishing rod is very advanced and you can clearly see the underwater fish."

"So magical?" Wei Xingfu's eyes shone.

"It's high technology." Before leaving, Fan Youcheng made a phone call gesture.

Mu Guangsen came to Li Yuanlong's office at 3 pm.

Seeing that Li Yuanlang's water cup was not full, he immediately took it over and continued to fill the water.

"Reporting is over?" Li Yuanlong asked while looking at the things, reaching out to the thermos cup, picking it up and taking a sip.

"I just finished reporting, I came to see you."

"Okay." Li Yuanlang stretched his waist, "Please sort out the materials I've seen, and I'll continue reading when I go back tonight."

"Also, Xu Guangshui has arranged a residence for you, and is the same courtyard as me, not far from my place, so it is convenient to get in and out. Guangsen, Deping is a strange environment, and the people here are even more unfamiliar. Let's not get too close. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand." Mu Guangsen didn't mind not living with Li Yuanlang at all.

After all, Deping is a prefecture-level city, unlike Shuntong Company.

There are many people here and things are complicated, so it is better to be cautious in everything.

After Mu Guangsen left, Li Yuanlang thought about it, picked up the phone and called out, "Hey, Secretary-General Xu, are you free in the evening? I want to invite you to dinner."

Xu Guangshui was shocked and immediately said, "Where are you bothering the mayor, please invite me, I'll treat you."

"It doesn't matter who invites whom I'm not familiar with Deping City. If you book a place, how can we go together after get off work?"

"Okay, we'll contact you later."

Xu Guangshui put down the phone, but was very happy.

Although Mayor Li is several years younger than him, he is doing things steadily, the most important thing is that he looks easy to get along with.

Booking a hotel is not difficult for Xu Guangshui. He is responsible for contacting the municipal government reception office. He knows exactly what the characteristics of Deping City are.

Just one phone call to get things done.

He called his family in advance and told his wife that he was the first person Deping accompanied the mayor to have dinner.

My wife couldn't help but nag on the phone again, "Guanshui, drink less at night, especially to control your mouth, don't say anything out."

"Look at you, I mentioned these again." Xu Guangshui became unhappy.

"You suffered little losses before? You have been wandering around at the level of the chief minister for many years. Look at the group of people promoted at the same time, the biggest one has become the municipal party committee secretary, and the worst one is the deputy mayor. You are still in circles at the level of the chief minister. If you weren't drunk and talk nonsense, you wouldn't offend anyone. You would have been the county party secretary long ago. Until now, you will definitely be the deputy mayor."

Xu Guangshui said angrily: "Why do you mention Chen Zhima Yanji? Is it annoying? Besides, if I don't say that, that person hates me to the core, and the person who promotes the door will not mention me."

"Hmph, I will remember this hatred for the rest of my life. It is said that thirty years from Hedong to Hexi, the hard days will come, and good days will come. Don't you know the word "whether the best comes?" Maybe I will turn over. Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I still have something to do, so I don't have to worry about me when I have dinner at night."

The moment he hung up the phone, Xu Guangshui secretly swore that he would never get drunk.

Don't give Li Yuanlong the first impression, he is a drunkard.

As before, Mu Guangsen drove his car and followed the on-board navigation.
