Hearing this, Chen Jin frowned slightly. He asked, "Could it be that Wu Qingshan has other purposes?"

Li Houguo thought about it, stopped what he was doing, and said to Chen Jin: "Come, follow me." ”

With that, he led Chen Jin to his study and closed the door.

"Look. Li Houguo pointed to a map of Dongjiang City posted behind the door and said: "If you follow what you said, if Metro Line 1 is going to be built to the university town, you can only take this line." What do you think you can discern from that?"

Chen Jin frowned and said seriously: "Along the line from the urban area to the university town, except for these real estates, all of them are wasteland. In this way, the utilization rate of the subway is too low, and it is not cost-effective at all. So I think that although Wu Qingshan is powerful, I am afraid that there will be great resistance in the court......"

"Hehe~ Xiao Chen, what do you say is the most important thing if you mix the system?" Li Houguo asked in a guided manner.

Chen Jin thought for a moment and responded: "Merit." And it has to be a merit that can be seen and touched, so that it can reflect the ability and thus rise to the top. ”

"That's half right, so ......?" Li Houguo smiled.

Chen Jin was stunned for a moment, in fact, he reacted as soon as he finished speaking.

If Metro Line 1 is really built to the university town, although the initial utilization rate is indeed terrifyingly low. But the effect is completely different.

You know, along the thirty or forty kilometers, more than a dozen real estate projects are simply negligible, and the rest is all wasteland, abandoned factories and a few peasant settlements.

And it's these plots of land that are really valuable. Because it has been basically out of the urban area, the price of these land plots is definitely not high.

But once there is a subway and these dozen real estate projects as an example, then even the most stupid developers know how to invest. At that time, not only will the price of land along the subway soar, but also the capital of investors will be smashed into this area.

The outcome is completely predictable, that is, the large vacant land from the urban area to the university town will rise countless projects, and the construction will be carried out, and the urban area can be expanded by the way.

This is an undesirable outcome for the government.

As a result, Wu Qingshan's move to revise the subway plan will not only not be opposed in the court, but will even be unanimously supported. Because it's in line with almost everyone's goals and interests.

As for the traffic problem in the west of the city, it can be solved by waiting for Line 2 or even Line 3.

And once Metro Line 1 is so planned, it will naturally drive some residents who originally lived in the west of the city to change their places of residence and reduce the pressure of changing directions.

Thinking of this, Chen Jin was surprised: "Lao Li, do you mean that Wu Qingshan wants to borrow this measure that is in the interests of everyone to gain his own merits?

"It's still too shallow. You should think about it a little deeper, for example, what is Wu Qingshan's most hopeful thing in the past two years?" Li Houguo said step by step.

In fact, he can directly give Chen Jin an answer, but it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, he hopes to take this opportunity to teach Chen Jin how to pay attention to the intricate relationships in the court, and then how to use these.

No one can be a saint, and Li Houguo is no exception, he is also selfish.

Chen Jin, on the other hand, stared at the map and thought about it for a long time, and even took out his mobile phone and searched the Internet......

In the end, he said to Li Houguo in surprise: "Does Wu Qingshan want to go to the next level in the system? He is 58 years old this year, and with his current level, according to the regulations, he will start to slowly retreat after the age of 60. ”

But if he can go one step further in these two years, not only will he not have to retire, but he will also be able to extend the retirement age to 68. In the past 8 to 10 years, he will even have the opportunity to enter Beijing from the local government again?"

Li Houguo nodded: "It seems that you have understood." But there are some things that you must not know in your position. ”

"What else?" Chen Jin said. It was really Wu Qingshan's ambition that was completely beyond his expectations.

Li Houguo hesitated for a while, but still spoke: "There is a big man in Shangjing City, who went out of Chunan Province back then. Wu Qingshan was able to get to his current position because he stood by the side of this big man at the beginning......"

"And this big man is likely to ...... in these two years"

Li Houguo's words did not go on completely. After all, at this point, what he said was already about to come out.

So Chen Jin was dumbfounded!

The current Wu Qingshan has already made him almost unable to resist. If Wu Qingshan goes further, how should he deal with himself?

For a while, Chen Jin even began to regret his stubbornness a little, secretly thinking that he should honestly bow down in front of Wu Qingshan before.

The people don't fight with the officials, as the saying goes!

"Lao Li, then why did he let me go today?" Chen Jin smiled bitterly: "It stands to reason that I am like a fly in front of him, and I am simply a dimensional crush!"

Li Houguo pursed his lips and said with a wry smile: "If nothing else, he should find out that you know me......"

Chen Jin: "............"

"Li Houguo?" Wu Demin heard his father say this name, frowned and thought about it, and then said in surprise: "Is it that Li Houguo?"

Wu Qingshan said coldly: "! How many Li Houguo can live in a place like Bihaixuan?"

Wu Demin's expression suddenly became a little difficult to look at, and he said humbly: "Dad, I didn't notice this before. ”

"Now you understand?" Wu Qingshan said: "Do you think that with just one Chen Jin, he has the courage to test you with this kind of thing?"

Wu Demin said: "Then what should I do? Although this Li Houguo is retired, he is now the one he brought out in several key points. ”

"He's not that stupid. Wu Qingshan responded: "The subway plan should be revised, which will drive the great development of the entire Dongjiang City, and the traffic problem of an urban area is not so important." This kind of question is not a reason to make things difficult for me. ”

So Chen Jin will be very cooperative in the future. It's up to you, put away all those fancy intestines. Stop thinking about what you can do with Chen Jin. After that, he will be your equal. ”

Wu Qingshan's last sentence was very serious, Wu Demin's heart trembled, and he could only nod unwillingly: "Dad, I understand." ”

............

Hearing Li Houguo say this, Chen Jin also understood. Li Houguo sold a house in his hands, which is something that can be easily found.

"Lao Li, it seems that I really want to thank you! I didn't expect that unconsciously, you actually saved my life. It's just that this Wu Qingshan ......" Chen Jin hesitated: "It seems that we really have nothing to do with him." ”

Li Houguo shrugged his shoulders and said happily: "Actually, there is no need to target him. Xiao Chen, you may not understand what I said, but although Wu Qingshan is seeking some personal gains, as far as being an official, he can be regarded as a good worker. ”

Chen Jin blinked, looked at Li Houguo and said, "Just the father and son of the Wu family, are you still doing well?"

Li Houguo said as a matter of course: "Isn't it? Not to mention anything else, in the years he has made his contributions to the opening of international air routes at the airport, the sewage treatment of the city's river system, the construction of a cross-sea bridge to promote the Bay Area Economic Circle, the urban development brought about by the real estate boom, and the approval of the construction of the subway project." ”

"Especially this subway project, if it weren't for his inextricable relationship with the one in Beijing, he might not have been able to finish it so quickly. It's going to be a few years later. ”

Chen Jin thought about it for a while and found that what Li Houguo said was right, these things could indeed be called great achievements. It was indeed all contributed by Wu Qingshan.

"I see. Chen Jin nodded, but then asked, "Then Lao Li, what should I do next?"

"Continue to work together and be honest and obedient. Li Houguo responded directly.

"Clams?" Chen Jin thought he had heard it wrong, and said in surprise: "Then won't I become an accomplice?"

Li Houguo looked at Chen Jin, his eyes revealed appreciation and relief, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Chen, to be honest, I didn't expect you to run so fast before today, you have to be so high." I think what I said to you before should have been more clear. ”

"As long as you can continue to be in this state of mind, don't say that you don't have much to do, even if you really ...... I, Li Houguo, have an old face, and I will also keep you safe. ”

"Lao Li, if you suddenly praise me like this, I will be proud. Chen Jin smiled awkwardly.

Li Houguo said solemnly: "Don't worry, listen to me." I also have selfish intentions in giving you such a promise. ”

When Chen Jin heard this, he immediately put away his smile and looked at him with a straight face.

Li Houguo nodded and said, "I used to think that you might only become a businessman with a conscience, but I didn't expect that in a short period of time, you have already touched this level. ”

"Now that you've come this far, I'm going to ask you a few more things. ”

"Wu Qingshan wants to revise the subway plan, and he said that now that I am retired, even if I am still in power, I will also support him. As long as the city can really develop, it is not a problem to deal with some mustard diseases one or two years earlier or one or two years later. ”

"And you, as a person in the middle of it, can't just think about how to make money and how to improve your status. You have to really think about the city you are in, and use your energy to do something that benefits the country and the people. Got it?"

When Chen Jin heard this, he was stunned and responded: "If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world?"

Li Houguo suddenly laughed: "You're right, that's what you mean." Just say this to you, let's have a good drink today!"

"Drink you big-headed ghost, don't go into the house to sleep today if you exceed two taels. Xiang Lanfen suddenly shouted outside.

Li Houguo's laughter was suddenly choked in his throat, which amused Chen Jin instead.

At this time, Xiang Lanfen said again: "Shouldn't you two come out to cook?" It's past 7 o'clock, and the chicken hasn't been cooked yet!"

Chen Jin and Li Houguo smiled at each other, and honestly went to the kitchen again, but saw that some unfamiliar ones had already been washed and plated, just waiting for the pot.

So the two of them turned on both stoves, went their separate ways, and finally ate dinner before 8 o'clock. And Li Houguo did only drink two taels of wine, and didn't dare to drink more.

Chen Jin didn't drink much either, because his mind kept circling around Li Houguo's entrustment to him......

"Do you already have the ability to help the world?" he asked himself in his heart.
