Chapter 221 Deputy Mayor Chen comes to support the show

It was finally Liu Siyu's turn. Director Zhou's secretary came out of the house and said politely to Liu Siyu: "County Chief Liu, Director Zhou invites you in."

Liu Siyu and Dong Yueling followed the secretary into Director Zhou's office. The Municipal Transportation Bureau is indeed richer than the county. The Director's office is larger than Secretary Zhang Xiande's office, and it is also a suite connecting the lounge and the bathroom.

When I walked in, I saw a fat, middle-aged man sitting behind the desk, looking at the documents intently, not knowing whether it was pretending or really looking at the documents.

The secretary approached his side and whispered, "Director Zhou, Deputy County Magistrate Liu from Baishu County is here."

Director Zhou Zhipeng raised his head, showed a formulaic smile on his face, stretched out his hand, and said to Liu Siyu: "I have heard that County Magistrate Liu is young and promising. When I see him today, it turns out to be so."

Liu Siyu hurriedly held Zhou Zhipeng's hand and said modestly: "Director Zhou is joking, and I hope Director Zhou will take care of him in the future."

As for Dong Yueling, she was already familiar with Director Zhou. After shook hands, Liu Siyu handed over the project proposal and related reports, saying: "Director Zhou, I will report to you some of our county's ideas about Baishan Road, and I hope you can support it."

"Baishan Road?" Zhou Zhipeng frowned when he heard this. In fact, he had known that Liu Siyu was here to report to him about the Baishan Road project. However, he received a call from Wei Jianmin and learned that Wei Jianmin had not participated in the preparations for the entire project because he offended Deputy County Mayor Liu. He had a good personal relationship with him, so he wanted to make things difficult for him.

"Director Zhou, you know that Baishan Road is still mud and stone roads, which seriously hinders the economic development of our county. After research by the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee, it was decided to build this road into a second-level cement road. I also hope that Director Zhou can strongly support it."

Zhou Zhipeng casually looked through the project proposal and information submitted by Liu Siyu, and said, "County Magistrate Liu, I have a deep understanding of Baishan Road. This road should be built long ago, but the city has limited funds now. If Baishan Road is built according to the standards of a second-level cement road, it will be a considerable amount of funds. I am afraid it will be a bit difficult this year."

"Director Zhou, no matter what, I hope you support the county's road construction plan. You know that if our county does not build this Baishan Road, it will definitely lag even further behind other counties." Liu Siyu said earnestly.

"Mr. Liu, I know a lot about the urgent desire to build roads in your county, but as the Municipal Transportation Bureau, we must consider the overall transportation development of the entire city. This year, the focus of the city's transportation sector is to ensure the hardening of the road from Shannan City to Lingbei County. You also know that this road is the main transportation route from Pingxi to Lingnan Province and a national highway. So you may not care about other highways." It is impossible not to say that Zhou Zhipeng's official accent is still very sensible.

The national highway runs from Shannan City through Lingbei County to Nanshui City in Lingnan Province. However, because this road is a national highway, the city has been waiting for the province to pay for the construction. Until last year, a central leader passed by from Pingxi to Lingnan, endured the bumps all the way. After saying a few words, the province instructed the city to build the second-level cement road this year, no matter what, the project has been completed and is being called.

"Director Zhou, we will not talk about work today. In order to thank you for your support for the transportation work in our county over the years, we will prepare wine at noon today, so please ask Director Zhou to prepare a must-have view." Hearing that Director Zhou was not very interested in Baishan Road, Liu Siyu did not explain to Director Zhou in detail on this issue, but began to treat him sincerely.

Director Zhou saw that Liu Siyu was still preparing to treat him as usual, and he smiled and said, "County Magistrate Liu, this is not good. The Central Committee has repeatedly issued a document to prohibit attending the banquet below."

"Director Zhou, this revolutionary work always requires food, and it's just a simple meal. If you don't appreciate your face, Secretary Zhang will definitely criticize me when we go back, saying that I have forgotten even the basic etiquette." Liu Siyu said with a smile.

"County Magistrate Liu is really good at saying, OK, since County Mayor Liu is very kind, let's attend on time when you talk about Liu Siyu's situation." Zhou Zhipeng has also heard about Liu Siyu's situation, but he doesn't know much. Since Liu Siyu faced his own difficulties, he even proposed to invite himself to dinner. After thinking about it, he agreed immediately.

When Liu Siyu saw Director Zhou agreeing, he immediately stood up with a breeze on his face and asked Dong Yueling: "Director Dong, ask Jiahong, where will it be at noon?"

Dong Yueling immediately went out, called Wei Jiahong and contacted him, and after a while, he said, "County Magistrate Liu, I'll have a meal at Shannan Huafang at noon."

When Liu Siyu heard this, he said to Zhou Zhipeng: "Director Zhou, it has been arranged. You can go to Shannan Huafang to eat fish at noon. You will arrange your people. Then we will agree, we will meet in a while."

Shannan Huafang refers to a boat, but this boat is fixed by the river. A boss opened a hot pot restaurant specializing in fish eating on this boat, and the business is very good.

"Okay, since that's the case, we'll arrive on time at half past twelve." Zhou Zhipeng didn't feel pretentious, raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and said.

Liu Siyu and Dong Yueling came out of Director Zhou's office and waited downstairs for a while. Wei Jiahong and Sheng Xiaobing arrived. The two got into the car and went straight to Shannan Painting Boat to have tea and wait.

"County Magistrate Liu and Director Zhou, it seems that they are not very interested in our project." Only the four of them, Dong Yueling could no longer control her suspicion and said.

"It's okay, this is normal. After all, the center of gravity of the city is on Lingshan Road." Liu Siyu said with a faint smile.

Director Zhou's attitude was actually very prepared. When Director Zhou mentioned Wei Jianmin just now, he knew that Wei Jianmin must have complained in front of Director Zhou, which made him even worse. At this critical moment of striving for the project, he actually complained in front of Director Zhou because he did not participate in the preparatory team. His purpose was self-evident.

Seeing Liu Siyu's clear-headed look, Dong Yueling and Wei Jiahong were also a little relieved. Liu Siyu took a sip of tea, thought about it in his mind, took out the phone, and called Chen Yuanhua.

The phone was connected, and Liu Siyu immediately smiled and said, "Brother Chen, hello, are you in Shannan?"

Chen Yuanhua was also very happy when he received a call from Liu Siyu. He heard Liu Siyu's tone and must have come to Shannan City. He smiled and said, "Have you come to the city? Why don't you call first?"

"Brother Chen, I'm sorry, it's me wrong. How about I punish myself for three cups in a while?" Liu Siyu said happily.

"Okay, if you don't report to me when you come, you will definitely be punished for this wine. You tell me the location, I will pour the wine myself." Chen Yuanhua was not the same. As soon as he heard Liu Siyu's tone, he knew that this kid must have wanted him to support his store. During this period, he should be doing projects. I think he wanted to invite someone to dinner and find himself to conquer the scene.

"Brother Chen is pleased. I'm at Shannan Huafang, why don't I come to pick you up in person?" Although Liu Siyu has a good relationship with Chen Yuanhua, this involves the scene and some things need to be said. This is a question of attitude.

"I don't need to pick it up. I know Shannan Huafang. I'll come over after work." Chen Yuanhua did not ask Liu Siyu who to invite to dinner, but agreed directly, which made Liu Siyu very happy.

Dong Yueling and Wei Jiahong heard Liu Siyu talk to a Chen surname on the phone very intimately. They looked at each other, but they didn't know who the Chen surname was. Liu Siyu wanted to invite him to dinner with Director Zhou.

At half past twelve, Director Zhou brought Deputy Director Feng Xiaogang and Office Director Jia Lili to Shannan Painting Boat. The waiter had arranged a large private room for them, with a large round table there. When the few people met, there was naturally a polite chat. Wei Jiahong led everyone to the table and sat down with guests and hosts.

Liu Siyu looked at everyone and said, "There is a guest who has not arrived yet, everyone wait."

Director Zhou felt a little unhappy when he heard this. Who would be more noble than me, but since he came, of course it was not easy to stand up and leave immediately. He had to say in his heart: I want to see what kind of person is worthy of my Zhou Zhipeng and others.

After waiting for about five minutes, the door of the private room was pushed open, and as a person walked in, a loud voice came into everyone's ears.

"Sorry, County Magistrate Liu, I'm late, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Everyone looked back and saw Chen Yuanhua and Song Lin, deputy director of the Municipal Government Office, walked in. Director Zhou's face immediately had a bright smile, and he immediately stood up and shouted respectfully: "Hello Mayor Chen." When the rest of the people saw Zhou Zhipeng's attitude was so respectful, they heard him shouting "Hello Mayor Chen." They guessed that the person coming was a member of the Standing Committee of the Shannan Municipal Party Committee and Deputy Mayor Chen Yuanhua. So whether they knew or didn't know, they immediately stood up, with enthusiastic smiles on their faces.

"Mayor Chen, I'm waiting for you." Liu Siyu was delighted when he saw everyone's expressions, pulled open the chair beside him and said.

"County Magistrate Liu, come on, let me introduce you. This is Director Song Lin of the Municipal Government Office, Director Song, and this is County Mayor Liu of Baishu County." Chen Yuanhua introduced the two. Liu Siyu immediately held Song Lin's hand and shook it enthusiastically.

With Chen Yuanhua and Song Lin taking the seat, Liu Siyu introduced three comrades from the county to Chen Yuanhua and the others, then turned his head and said to Director Zhou: "Director Zhou, don't you introduce your two subordinates?"

Feng Xiaogang and Jia Lili looked at Liu Siyu gratefully. Mayor Chen Yuanhua is a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. It is so rare that this opportunity is to be able to have dinner with him. If he can leave a good impression in his mind, he might bring him an opportunity at any time.

Director Zhou immediately followed Liu Siyu's words, pointed at Feng Xiaogang and Jia Lili, and introduced Chen Yuanhua and Song Lin.

After the waiter brought the dishes, Liu Siyu asked the waiter to bring four bottles of Maotai first, and asked the waiter to pour the wine, then raised the glass, and toast the leaders of the city with Wei Jiahong and Dong Yueling. Sheng Xiaobing wanted to drive, so he drank boiled water and gave a drink of water instead of wine.

After this glass, Chen Yuanhua was the highest-level leader on the table, so naturally everyone toasted him. Although Chen Yuanhua was not in charge of Zhou Zhipeng’s Transportation Bureau, Chen Yuanhua was a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, and this weight was much heavier than the mayor he was in charge of. Now that he has such a good opportunity, he certainly refused to let go.

Apart from Chen Yuanhua, Zhou Zhipeng is the highest-level at this table. Naturally, he picked up the wine first and said to Chen Yuanhua extremely sincerely: "Mayor Chen, on behalf of the Municipal Transportation Bureau, I would like to wish you a drink. Thank you for your concern for our Transportation Bureau."

Chen Yuanhua came this time to earn face for Liu Siyu, so he naturally said with a smile: "Director Zhou is good. The transportation in our city has made great progress in recent years, and Director Zhou has made great contributions."

After Zhou Zhipeng excitedly drank the wine, Chen Yuanhua also drank one cup, which gave Zhou Zhipeng great face. Then Liu Siyu naturally drank another cup with him. As for the others, of course, he also toasted Chen Yuanhua, but they all said extremely respectfully, "Mayor Chen, you can say it, I'll finish it." He did it all, and Chen Yuanhua just smiled and took a sip. That's it, Wei Jiahong and Feng Xiaogang were also honored.

As the host, Liu Siyu toasted Chen Yuanhua and then to Director Song Lin, Director Zhou, Deputy Director Feng Xiaogang, and Jia Lili. Everyone was done with it. After a round, more than half a pound of wine had already fallen, but the atmosphere at the table was getting stronger and stronger. After three bottles of wine were gone, Jia Lili and Dong Yueling also had red faces.

Later, Liu Siyu drank nearly half a pound of wine, but he became familiar with Song Lin, Zhou Zhipeng and Feng Xiaogang. Everyone started to speak casually. Liu Siyu held a glass of wine and said to Zhou Zhipeng: "Director Zhou, I will give you another cup of wine. We hope you will take care of the roads in our county."

Zhou Zhipeng received a call from Wei Jianmin and wanted to make things difficult for Liu Siyu. After all, this highway project had to pass through the Municipal Transportation Bureau. However, seeing Mayor Chen coming, he couldn't help but re-evaluate Liu Siyu. Compared to a county director, the deputy mayor's weight is not only a little bit higher. He may not care about Liu Siyu's face at the deputy county level, but this deputy mayor cannot be easily offended, and he is also a deputy mayor with a member of the Standing Committee.

Zhou Zhipeng glanced at Mayor Chen and saw that he was talking to Director Song with a calm expression, but he knew that Mayor Chen must be paying attention to his attitude.

"County Magistrate Liu, you should indeed build this road. I have read your project proposal. It's good. We will hold a meeting to study as soon as possible and strive to establish the project as soon as possible." Zhou Zhipeng looked at Liu Siyu and said loudly.

"Okay, Director Zhou, in order to thank you for your strong support for our county's work, I have a drink of three cups in a row. I respect the leaders of the municipal bureau. I will finish drinking, you can do whatever you want." Liu Siyu was very happy when he heard Zhou Zhipeng's reply. On a whim, he poured three cups in a row, picked up one cup and said to Zhou Zhipeng, Feng Xiaogang and Jia Lili.

When Chen Yuanhua saw Liu Siyu’s wine aroused, he was a little worried and said, “There is no need for three cups. County Mayor Liu and I will just have a drink with the leaders of the Municipal Transportation Bureau.”

When Zhou Zhipeng heard that Chen Yuanhua actually took the initiative to pick up the wine, he couldn't describe how excited he was. He just kept saying: "It's still the person from our Transportation Bureau to respect Mayor Chen."

Everyone pushed it, and finally everyone on the table drank a drink, and then it was over.

Seeing that everyone was drinking almost the same, Chen Yuanhua said: "The wine is almost done today. I have another meeting in the afternoon. I think everyone should just fill it up and have a great reunion. What do you think?"

Since Chen Yuanhua said something, everyone had nothing to say, and they all raised their glasses excitedly, drank them, then ate some food, and followed Chen Yuanhua to leave Shannan Painting Boat.

On the way back to Baishu County, Dong Yueling and Wei Jiahong looked at Liu Siyu with a little awe. Today, the two saw that the deputy mayor of Shannan City came to help Liu Siyu personally to save face. It can be seen that he had a strong relationship with Deputy Mayor Chen. Moreover, they also heard that Deputy Mayor Chen is also the confidant general of Zhu Tiancheng, the Secretary of the Shannan Municipal Party Committee. With this relationship, he naturally would not take Long Haitao seriously. No wonder Long Haitao's attitude towards Liu Siyu had a 180-degree turn.

In fact, they didn't know that Long Haitao was almost killed by Liu Siyu. Now seeing Liu Siyu is like a mouse seeing a cat, and he dare not provoke Liu Siyu, the evil god.

Back in the county, Liu Siyu went to County Mayor Lei's office to report to the Municipal Transportation Bureau. Now he has handed the report to the Municipal Transportation Bureau. As for reporting to the Mayor and Municipal Party Committee Secretary, this is the matter between County Mayor Lei and Secretary Zhang. As a deputy county magistrate, he went to report to the Mayor and Secretary Zhang, and his weight was still a little short of it.

In the evening, Yang Tianqi was the host, Liu Siyu, Jiang Mingqiang, Dong Yueling and Chen Liang arrived at Bixi Villa. Jiang Dehong had already received Yang Tianqi's call and was ready. When he saw Liu Siyu coming, everyone followed Liu Siyu in like stars supporting the moon.

After three rounds of drinking, Jiang Mingqiang said: "County Magistrate Liu, the situation in the development zone is not good now. Director Zheng used the excuse that something happened and ran back to the city, and he didn't come to work for two days. A relative of me worked in the development zone. He heard that the whole development zone is now rumored that the county allocated a sum of money and was about to give it to the development zone. You detained it. The cadres in the development zone did not dare to make trouble, but it seemed that someone was encouraging farmers to ask the government for money."

"Haha, it seems that the tree is quiet but the wind is not stopping. Mingqiang is good. You should stare at it during this period, especially your relative, so that he must pay attention to the trends of the development zone. If there is anything unusual, you must tell me as soon as possible." Speaking of this, Liu Siyu turned to Yang Tianqi and said, "Tianqi, let two trustworthy police officers investigate who is making trouble in the development zone."

"Okay, County Magistrate Liu, don't worry, I will find out the truth." Yang Tianqi replied readily without any hesitation.

Jiang Mingqiang did not go to the city today, but Dong Yueling came back and told him the situation. He knew that there was a deputy mayor Chen standing behind Liu Siyu, which made him even more determined to follow Liu Siyu.

Liu Siyu also had plans for the development zone. Zheng Yuling was so ignorant that she let him leave it alone. Unexpectedly, Zheng Yuling really ran back to Shannan City in anger, which made her even more determined to adjust the idea of ​​the development zone leaders. Now there are one director and two deputy directors in the development zone, but the other two directors have never reported to her work.

It’s just a little difficult to adjust the leadership of the development zone. After all, I’ve only been to the county now and it’s hard to interfere in personnel matters. I have to wait for an opportunity. The chaos in the development zone is the opportunity that Liu Siyu is waiting for.

No leader can tolerate his subordinates not listening to his greetings.
