Mayor Wang took a few sips of the drink and said to Lin Mai in a serious voice:
"Comrade Xiaolin, you are a native of Hu Province, and you made your fortune in Jiangcheng.
Not to mention how much help Executive Ouyang has given you in the past.
Do you have the heart to leave Jiangcheng and develop in other cities?"
Lin Mai said silently in her heart, when Executive Ouyang was still the district chief, she took away so many worries and solved so many difficulties for him!
But she only said these words in her heart, and it was impossible to say them out.
Only those who are stupid will confront their leaders face to face.
Lin Mai kept nodding like a chicken pecking at rice: "Mayor Wang is quite right.
Without the help from Executive Ouyang, I could have made a fortune relying on national policies, but it would not have been so smooth."
Mayor Wang was smiling on the outside, but he was panicking in his heart.
This Xiao Lin is really eloquent. With just one sentence, "She can also make a fortune by relying on the country's policies," she instantly reduced the help Ouyang gave her to a dispensable status.
But he still couldn't blame her.
What she said is also true.
Besides, if he accuses Lin Mai, isn’t that denying the country’s policy?
This shrewd guy used only one sentence to stop her from leaving because Ouyang had helped her.
Just when Mayor Wang was racking his brains to think about how to persuade Lin Mai to stay, Lin Mai continued: "Although I am from Hu Province and made my fortune in Jiangcheng, Leader Ouyang also gave me a lot.
help.
But Mayor Wang, our structure cannot be so small.
Speaking of which, we are all sons and daughters of the Chinese nation. No matter which city I go to for development, I will contribute to the country. I don’t necessarily have to stay in Jiangcheng.
I think that as long as Leader Ouyang knows about my idea, he will never use his previous help to prevent me from developing in other cities."
Speaking of this, she deliberately asked Mayor Wang: "Mayor Wang and Leader Ouyang thought that my situation was small before, but I am not small now, right?"
Mayor Wang was about to cry but had no tears.
This girl Lin Mai actually asked him what they said, how should he answer?
To measure a cadre's ability above, we must first look at the economy. If the GDP indicator is not good, it means the work is not done well.
He just wants his city's financial statements to look good and has no control over other provinces. What good does it do him if he wants Linmai to be so big?
Facing the table full of delicacies, Mayor Wang had no appetite at all. He put down his chopsticks and advised:
"Comrade Xiaolin, I think you should not move the company to Star City. It will break your muscles and bones and cause a lot of losses.
Instead of losing so much, it would be better not to pay for the factory's project.
The light factory project fee is nothing compared to the cost of moving your company to Star City.
You are a smart person, why can't you figure it out?
It's already very difficult for the light factory, so just let him go."
Lin Mai sneered in his heart and said: "Mayor Wang is so flattering, I am not a smart person, I am a person who accepts death.
All I know is that if I don’t get back the money the light factory owes us for this project.
Next time there will be heavy factories, textile factories... those state-owned enterprises will not give us any money if they ask us to build dormitories.
The migrant workers in my family have worked in vain.
In our country, the most miserable people are the farmers. If they work as migrant workers but still don’t get paid, my conscience will hurt!
I think Mayor Wang’s conscience will also hurt, right?”
Mayor Wang was silent for a long time, and then said something very poor: "Anyway, your Vantone Group has good profits, so you can definitely pay the wages of migrant workers!"
Xiao Man drank wine and ate vegetables, and murmured dissatisfiedly: "There are so many state-owned units in the city that are not performing well. Should we, Wantong Group, use our money to support them?"
Our private enterprises, which have been around for a long time, are just fat pigs for your leaders to be slaughtered.
It would be better to end Vantone Group and keep the money in your own hands."
Mayor Wang's face turned red and he was extremely embarrassed.
Lin Mai said Xiaoman's words were inappropriate and seemed like she didn't know how to advance or retreat and didn't want to accept the blame of her leader.
But Xiaoman said that there wasn't much of a problem, she was just an assistant responsible for accompanying the guests.
Lin Mai could turn this story around just by saying that her consciousness was low.
Lin Mai pretended to scold Xiao Man.
Then he smiled at Mayor Wang: "There is really no other way. I have low consciousness and cannot sacrifice my own interests to help the light factory. I'd better move away."
A meeting ended on bad terms.
Although the matter reached a deadlock, Lin Mai still respectfully sent Mayor Wang and his secretary away.
She turned around and said hello to Li Mingcheng, who was standing at the door of the store to take Xiaoman home.
I thought that Li Mingcheng and Xiaoman had been in love for a long time, and it was time to get married.
She smiled and asked them, when will they have a happy event?
Li Mingcheng blushed a little: "We haven't met our parents yet. We will meet our parents during the Chinese New Year this year and then talk about marriage."
Lin Mai nodded, told the two of them to go home and pay attention to safety, and was about to leave.
Xiaoman pulled her to him and whispered: "Will Mayor Wang force the light factory to pay us for the project?
If not, my drink tonight will be in vain."
When Li Mingcheng heard this, he immediately asked nervously: "How much wine have you drunk?"
Xiao Man rolled his eyes at him: "I didn't drink much, you can see I'm not even drunk."
In fact, she drank a lot of wine, but she drank too much, so she didn't get drunk.
Lin Mai said confidently: "Don't worry, your wine won't be in vain tonight, we will get the project funds within two days at most.
If they really can’t get the project funds, Mayor Wang will also ask Factory Director Hu to use their dormitory building to mortgage part of the project funds.”
Early the next morning, Lin Mai chartered a taxi to take Grandpa Fang, his wife and Dou Dou for a walk in the countryside.
Take a look at the living conditions of local farmers.
This year, the rural areas around Simei Town are more prosperous than last year.
More people are building new houses.
Many people built small Western-style houses, and even those with poor conditions built red-brick houses with large tiles.
The clothes worn by farmers are no longer piled with patches.
Especially the eldest girl and the young daughter-in-law, wearing colorful new clothes, looked happy.
The taxi stopped in front of the old house of Grandpa Fang and his wife, and immediately attracted the attention of many old men and women who were chatting in the sun at the door.
Everyone gathered around curiously and were extremely happy when they saw Lin Mai and others getting out of the taxi.
They gathered around Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang to greet each other.
Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang happily caught white rabbit toffees with Doudou for the villagers to eat.
Lin Mai exchanged greetings with the group of grandparents and then walked around the area.
The villagers who met her along the way greeted her warmly.
Many villagers said with gratitude that there were too many people growing vegetables in greenhouses this year.
The vegetables in his greenhouse are almost only used to feed rabbits.
Fortunately, the buyer of Lin Mai's family bought all the vegetables from his family's greenhouse. Otherwise, this year's greenhouse vegetables would not only make no money, but would also result in losses.
Everyone kept saying thank you.
Lin Mai smiled and said: "I am the girl who walked out from here. I will definitely help you. You don't need to thank me."
She asked an old man: "I just heard that the vegetables in your greenhouse can only be used to feed rabbits. Are you also raising rabbits?"
"Yes!" said the old man, "not only am I raising rabbits, but everyone in our area is raising rabbits."
Many of the villagers who had gathered nodded.
Everyone praised Fu Qiang for being kind-hearted and leading them to raise rabbits to become rich.
Not only do they sell them breeding rabbits at cost price, but they also treat sick rabbits for free.
He also said that Linmai's purchasers are also very good. As long as their rabbits are qualified, they will buy them all.
Lin Mai smiled and walked towards Fu Qiang's house.
She wants to praise Fu Qiang well.
He has grown up and matured, and he understands that it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them how to fish.
