Approaching the Lantern Festival, Li Huayong began to prepare to return to Pengcheng.

Compared with when he came back, there has been a big change in the personnel who are going to work in Pengcheng with Li Huayong this time, except that Uncle Gen can't go over for the time being, the biggest change is the addition of Qianqian and several other female members.

The reason why it is "a few", all of this is suggested by Uncle Gen, considering that it is inconvenient to have only one girl on the construction site, after all, it is inconvenient to find a few companions for her, and of course, it is precisely because of Qianqian's sample that other women have less worries about working on the construction site.

On the fourteenth day, Li Huayong led everyone to Zhujiaji to prepare for returning to Pengcheng. The so-called preparation work is actually loading, and compared with the change of personnel, the bigger change is of course in the cargo. When I came back, the car was loaded with all kinds of electrical appliances and New Year's goods, but this time it became a pile of all kinds of stones and some local souvenirs.

Li Huayong bought these souvenirs with money and was going to take them to Pengcheng as gifts. These souvenirs are not worth much, and they are not distinctive in Li Huayong's opinion, but Li Huayong thinks that it is the most suitable thing to use as a gift.

Imagine that if he went to visit Old Man Cai after arriving in Pengcheng, according to the habits of us Chinese, it would definitely not be appropriate for him to go empty-handed. First of all, Li Huayong thinks that with his current relationship with Huajian Ninth Bureau, there is no need to do this, and this will make the relationship between them vulgar. Secondly, with his understanding of Old Man Cai and others, Li Huayong believes that even if he dares to send it, Old Man Cai and others may not dare to accept it.

After thinking about it, Li Huayong still felt that it was most appropriate to send some less expensive local products. We Chinese often say that "giving gifts is giving hearts", which is what it means. Although these things are not worth much, what they brought to you from thousands of miles reflects a sincerity, and what Li Huayong wants to express is this sincerity.

In Zhujiaji, two brothers, Li Shuisheng and Li Huosheng, are leading everyone to load the car. Li Huayong led Qianqian and several other female dependents to the side of the Mercedes-Benz:

"Sister-in-law Qiuxiang, let's not squeeze with them this time, let's all sit in this car. ”

That's right, Li Huayong was talking to a woman named Qiu Xiang, and she was also one of the female relatives who were going to Pengcheng this time. Although this has the same name as Tang Bohu's Qiu Xiang in Qiu Xiang, she is not a stunning beauty, but a very ordinary middle-aged rural woman. Although this person is a cut older than Li Huayong, she and Li Huayong are the same generation when it comes to seniority.

Lijiaao is basically a natural village with five generations in the same house, and Li Huayong can be ranked in the third generation, just because he takes advantage of this, and he will not suffer from his title most of the time.

Several female dependents excitedly chattered around the Mercedes-Benz, and Qianqian smiled at Li Huayong:

"Dunzi, this is the car you are looking for for the Xiangjiang woman?"

Li Huayong was stunned at first, and after Lin Wei's figure appeared in his mind, Li Huayong laughed:

"That's right, this car is the Xiangjiang woman. ”

"Then when will you bring that Xiangjiang woman back to Lijiaao? ”

Several women surrounded Li Huayong and ridiculed, but Li Huayong smiled and didn't speak, letting everyone joke. At this time, Uncle Gen, as well as the "Zhu Mangu" he had seen before, and an old man in a Mao suit walked over to this side:

"Dunzi, this is Secretary Liu of our commune, he wants to invite you to come over there and sit down. ”

"Oh, Secretary Liu, hello, hello......"

Of course, there is no so-called "commune" anymore these days, but among the older generation such as Uncle Gen, they are sometimes still accustomed to following the previous name and calling the township "commune", so the "commune secretary" in front of him should be the biggest parent official in the locality.

This was the first time Li Huayong had met with officials in the local system. To be honest, Li Huayong has been back in Lijiaao for the past few days, and he has always felt a little strange about one thing. Although he didn't deliberately come back this time, Li Huayong thought that it should still be relatively high-profile, not to mention the big bags when everyone came back, not to mention this Mercedes-Benz car, even if it was the rear eight-wheeled muck car, it was rare to see it locally.

It can be said that in addition to not writing the word "local tyrant" on his face, Li Huayong thinks that he is a proper local tyrant when he comes back this time. From the moment he returned, he had definitely become the center of after-dinner discussion among the locals.

But now the question arises: How can he not see the officials in the system flock to him? Let alone at the county and city level, even the officials in the system at the township and town level have not seen him himself.

It took Li Huayong some days to understand this. It doesn't seem to be time for me to "return home" this time. Officials in the system flocked to local tyrants, and that was when the concept of "attracting investment" was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and all kinds of so-called "development zones" were blooming everywhere in the mainland.

And all this happens, it will take at least a few years to happen, and the climax of the first round should have happened after the Southern Tour of '92, and according to the degree of economic development, the more economically underdeveloped the area, the later the time should be.

"It's a pity, it's not the best time for the local tyrants......"

After thinking about this problem, Li Huayong could only express such feelings in private. When was the most beautiful local tyrant in China? Li Huayong believes that it was not that he had just crossed that meeting, but that it should have been in the mid-90s.

I believe that many Chinese people have heard such a story: there are local tyrants who are extremely arrogant and show off to others: "If I call a certain mayor or a certain leader now, believe it or not, he will definitely rush to my side within 10 minutes......"

Whether others believe such a story or not, Li Huayong believes it anyway. Of course, there is a premise for such a thing, and that is that such a thing can only happen in a certain era like the mid-nineties.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand, because during this period, there were still relatively few local tyrants in China, and according to the scarcity of resources, the local tyrants in this period were qualified to be the uncle, and the officials in the system were grandsons. However, in a few years, when there are more and more local tyrants in China, and the public power in the hands of government officials becomes a scarce resource, the situation will be completely reversed. At that time, it was the officials in the system who became the masters, and the local tyrants had to clamp their tails one by one as grandchildren.

Therefore, Li Huayong has always believed that in life, "knowing current affairs" is actually a very important thing. In his previous life, due to the nature of his work, Li Huayong also knew quite a lot of local tyrant friends. It's a pity that there are many people who "don't know the current affairs", and some people are still doing what they did in the 90s, and they are still doing it after entering the new century.

During this period, a considerable number of people who were "ignorant of current affairs" were finally put to death by the system.

Li Huayong believes that in the mid-80s, officials in the system did not actually have much contact with the local tyrants, at least not much in substance. For example, it's 86 years now, so what is the most important keyword for our entire country in 86?

Older people know that there are actually two key words in '86, one is called "official downfall" and the other is "opposition to bourgeois liberalization".

Speaking of this, there is actually no need to explain too much, as long as you think of the general environment of this era, especially the general environment of inland areas, Li Huayong believes that this Secretary Liu should have no other meaning to find himself, at least he will not have too strong demand for "investment promotion".

However, Li Huayong did not dare to ignore the existence of officials in the system, to be honest, now only those stones have not been tested, Li Huayong has not been able to clarify whether this marble mine has development value. If this can be clarified, then it will be indispensable to deal with officials within the system in the future.

Accompanied by Uncle Gen and "Zhu Mangu", Li Huayong and "Secretary Liu" had a very happy conversation. Although the conversation between the two this time did not have any substance, they were just talking some enthusiastic nonsense. Lao Liu praised Li Huayong for being "young and promising" and setting an example for local young people. And Li Huayong praised Secretary Liu for "loving the people like a son", but to be honest, Li Huayong didn't even know his specific name except that ----he knew that the secretary's surname was Liu, and he didn't know what he had done before.

After forming this good fate, Li Huayong really set off to prepare to rush to Pengcheng.

On the 16th, Li Huayong officially set off. Because in the past two days, he listened to Qianqian, Qiu Xiangsao, and others talking about the "Xiangjiang mother-in-law", Li Huayong went to the post office to call Lin Wei before leaving, and the call was of course not to Xiangjiang, but to Shekou Industrial Park.

"Brother-in-law, Wishing you prosperity. ”

It was Lin Kai who answered the phone over there, and he didn't say much:

My sister is in Yangcheng now, you will go there first when you come back, she has something to look for you. ”

"Huh?"
