The county government's car pulled Li Mubai to the place. However, Li Mubai looked at his watch and saw that it was already half past five. He got off the car and said to the driver: "Thank you, Mr. Driver, let's go find a place to rest."
"
What?
Although this driver was not Xu Zhian's new car driver, he also knew that County Magistrate Xu had personally arranged to pick him up today. These people were all picked up at the county government compound, but this young man actually said he wanted to rest.
If County Magistrate Xu asked him later, he wouldn't know how to answer.
"It's okay. If Xu Zhian asks you, just tell me what I said. It's time to get off work now. If you have anything to do, I'll tell you tomorrow." Li Mubai seemed to know what the driver was going to say, and then said: "Don't worry,
Xu Zhian will not blame you."
"Oh." The driver nodded confusedly. In any case, he was just a driver and had no right to order Li Mubai. The first secretary of the government did have some dignity, so he was not rushed by this young man.
Not working anymore?
Li Mubai originally wanted to take Wu Wei to live in the county guest house, so that Tang Jie could be "summoned" tomorrow morning. However, before he could walk out of the yard, he saw a group of people appearing at the door of the county government compound.
A gangster-like guy.
He didn't care, threw off his legs, and led Wu Wei out of the county government compound.
The county guest house is only a five-minute walk from the county government.
After requesting two single rooms, Li Mubai took a shower and was about to pick up the phone to call Wu Wei to come down for dinner when the door was knocked violently.
"Township...township chief, something's wrong!" Wu Wei stood at the door, looking very panicked.
"Come in, sit down, and have a glass of water before we talk." Although Wu Wei is not yet thirty years old, he is usually very calm. Li Mubai didn't know what happened, which made his correspondent panic.
Like this.
Why did Wu still have the energy to sit down and drink water? He stepped in front of the window in a few steps, pointed outside and said, "Our car was smashed!"
The car was smashed?
Li Mubai felt a little incredible.
He walked to the window in a few steps, and sure enough, Zuoli's Toyota was parked on the roadside outside the county government. The person who smashed the car had long disappeared, but the Toyota was now full of damage.
There is really no way to watch it anymore.
The windshield in front had been thrown away long ago, and although it was a bit far away now, one could roughly see that there were countless large and small pits on the car.
"Find a camera, I'll go down and take a look first." Li Mubai looked in the mirror leisurely to see if there were any wrinkles in his clothes, and then walked out of the room.
Li Mubai's words were an order. Although this was a guest house of the county government, it was not easy to get a camera. Fortunately, Wu Wei was smart and asked around the front desk where there was a photo studio. In less than half an hour, Wu Wei
Sweating profusely, he ran back with a camera.
Wu Wei took a full roll of photos of the miserable car, while Li Mubai was standing in front of the car, and it was hard to tell whether he was angry or not.
After Wu Wei finished taking the photo, Li Mubai took out his mobile phone. He had written down the phone numbers of Zuo Li and Guan Jie that day, and even the phone number of the owner of Meishan Hotel was saved by Li Mubai.
"Brother Zuo, I'm afraid I can't return your car to you." Li Mubai said, standing next to the smashed car.
At this time, Zuo Li was changing glasses at a dinner party when he suddenly heard Big Brother ringing, but he didn't expect that the call was from Li Mubai. "It's okay, it's just a car. As long as you like it, Xiaobai,
I’ll give it to you.”
At that time, Zuo Li gave him away and had no intention of asking for it again. He knew very well that the reason why people came to Ningdong Province to see him was because of the relationship between the elders, so they gave him face. It is not that simple to build a relationship with Ding Yiyi.
Fortunately, there is another Li Mubai in Ningdong Province. If I can befriend Ding Yinzhen through Li Mubai, not to mention one car, ten or a hundred will be worth it.
"Brother Zuo, it's not a question of whether I like it or not. It's that your car was smashed. Oh, by the way, it was parked in front of the Xincheng County Government. I'm standing right next to the car."
Zuo Li didn't take the value of this car seriously, and Li Mubai never took it seriously. He said easily without any pressure: "You'd better find a car to take this pile of scrap metal back.
Maybe I can even buy some money and buy a pack of cigarettes."
puff……
Zuo Li almost spit a mouthful of wine into the face of a beautiful woman sitting opposite.
If you exchange an off-road vehicle worth hundreds of thousands for a pack of cigarettes, aren't you afraid of choking to death?
"I'll go over and take a look."
Zuo Liming knew that Li Mubai was running against him. The car of a dignified deputy governor's son was smashed in front of the county government. Not to mention that Li Mubai was running against him now. If word got out, he would be in Ningdong Province tomorrow.
In the circle, this would become a joke, and Zuo Li could not afford to lose face.
"Young Master Zuo, what happened?" There were four young men around the same age as Zuo Li sitting at the dinner table. Seeing this guy's face looking a little ugly when he hung up the phone, he opened his mouth to ask.
"It's okay." How could such an embarrassing thing be said in his own mouth.
When Zuo Li came out of the hotel, Li Mubai was not idle either. Since someone was causing trouble, Li Mubai didn't mind making the matter bigger.
Immediately, he called Hong Xiangyu again.
He didn't know anyone in the news media industry, but the person who was with Hong Xiangyu that day was a beauty from Mingyang City TV station. If he didn't make good use of such a ready-made relationship, Li Mubai felt a little sorry for Hong Xiangyu.
Originally, the distance between Hong Xiangyu and Li Mubai was gradually widening, but when he found out that this guy and Ding Yiyi were life and death friends, he regretted it. Even if he couldn't reach Ding Yiyi, it was still a good idea to make friends with Li Mubai.
A clever chess move can also play a role in saving the country.
Hearing that Li Mubai's car had been smashed, Hong Xiangyu immediately contacted Yali without saying anything. No matter what Li Mubai wanted to do, it was absolutely necessary to deepen the relationship at this time.
In less than forty minutes, not only did Yali arrive, but she also brought two journalist friends, one from Mingyang Daily and one from Evening News. And she herself also brought a news reporter from the TV station to the scene.
After a few words of greeting, they took the camera and started taking pictures. The camera over there was not idle either. It focused on the smashed car and took a video.
The movement here had already alerted the on-duty personnel in the county government. At first, no one took it seriously. However, when they discovered that there was a camera, the on-duty personnel could not sit still.
However, when they heard that these people were reporters from the city, the staff on duty couldn't stop them even if they wanted to, so they quickly called the office director Rong Qihua to report.
Rong Qihua came really fast, and he appeared at the door of the county government in about five minutes. However, when he arrived, Li Mubai had already left the county government with these reporters, and was sitting in the guest house at this time.
Inside the restaurant.
Originally, Li Mubai hadn't eaten yet, so it was a good time to entertain him together.
By coincidence, Hong Xiangyu also came to Xincheng County for business at this time, and happened to meet him at the door of the guest house.
It's better to meet by chance than an invitation. After Li Mubai mentioned it, the group of people found the largest box in the county guest house and sat in it.
It wasn't until Li Mubai asked Wu Wei to make arrangements that Wu Wei changed his mind.
What kind of characters are these?
Not to mention the reporters from the two newspapers inside, the sight of Yali, who could only be seen on TV, made him dizzy. The name of this person who appeared later was even more terrifying, Mr. Hong’s
grandson.
Anyone who knows Li Mubai a little bit will know that this guy and Hong Xiangyu once shared hardships in the former Public Security Bureau.
Fortunately, Wu Wei's behavior was not too bad. He walked out of the box and found the person in charge of the guest house. He urged him to serve the best dishes.
"Oh, look at my stupid brain, I actually ignored one of the most important issues." Li Mubai seemed to suddenly think of something, patted his forehead and said, "Why did I forget to call our people's guards, the police comrades?
The police have been called!”
In front of everyone, Li Mubai called the police. However, the boy did not directly say that the car was smashed in front of the county government, but said that it was not far from the county guest house.
After making the call, Li Mubai looked at his watch and said to himself: "Hey, it's already around this time. I'm afraid all the comrades from the Public Security Bureau are off work!"
"Xiaobai, I think you might as well become a reporter." Yali finally figured out why Ding Yiyi had such a good relationship with this guy. Neither of these two guys is a good guy, the former is ruthless, and the latter.
The person in front of me is also full of bad intentions, especially his mouth, which is downright mean.
The two reporters next to them had a very good relationship with Yali, and one of them was Yali's best friend. Before coming, Yali had made it very clear that she was here to sit in the main seat.
Li Mubai came to stand and cheer.
However, what is surprising is that Li Mubai's "casual" words instantly made these two reporters with a keen sense of news realize something. Although they did not speak, they both had fox-like smiles on their faces.
Before the waiter here brought the dishes, there was a knock on the private room door.
Now that Wu Wei already knows the identities of these people, he will not sit at this dinner table again. Not only because he is not worthy enough, but more importantly, he understands that his boss seems to be trying to set a flag.
.Although secretaries are always confidants of the boss, Wu Wei has not reached that point yet.
However, the arrival of the director of the county government office forced Wu Wei to inform Li Mubai so that he could prepare in advance.
