There was nothing to do on Monday, there were a few small disputes, Xia Xiang didn't show up, and asked Wu Gang to come forward to deal with it. On Tuesday morning, a fat-headed and big-eared man with a gold chain the thickness of a dog chain on his neck and wrist came to Xia Xiang, saying that he was a member of the third construction of the charter and had come to handle the construction procedures.

"What kind of construction procedures?" Xia wanted to see him with the posture of an upstart, and his heart was disgusted, so he asked knowingly.

"I said Director Xia, can't you remember what Secretary Wu said? The third construction of the charter is going to enter the Yanshi market, I went to the mayor's office, saying that the office of the renovation team is fully responsible, which is also a strange thing, and I have to let people run more often......" He shook his head and said non-stop, and changed his feet impatiently when he spoke.

"Which Wu secretary?" Xia Xiang looked down at the documents, "Put your company's qualification certificate, a copy of the industrial and commercial license and relevant performance into the hands of Director Qu, if Director Qu passes the preliminary examination, he will notify you to review, and if the review is qualified, you can participate in the public bidding." ”

"What?" The fat head and big ears didn't hear clearly, and his voice suddenly raised an octave, "I heard me right, right?" Secretary Wu spoke, dare you be disobedient to a small deputy director of the office? Don't want to mess up, do you? ”

"Yan City Municipal Axe does not have the number of Wu Da Secretary, so no matter who you are talking about Wu Da Secretary, he can't control Yan City's decision on the Municipal Axe! If you don't think the rules of the municipal axe are reasonable, no one asks you to do the work. There are many people who want to undertake construction projects. Xia Xiang pushed him back with a word, and used the secretary of the provincial party committee secretary to press the municipal axe, not to mention Wu Peiyong, even Gao Chengsong would not publicly deny the decision of the Yanshi municipal axe.

The fat head and big ears were so angry that he couldn't speak, Zhong Yiping came in and said: "If there is nothing else, please don't hinder the work of the political axe personnel, thank you for your cooperation!" ”

Wu Peiyong is arrogant, but he has no real power in his hands, at best, he can play right and wrong in front of Gao Chengsong to intimidate others. Xia Xiang is just a small section-level cadre, no matter how dissatisfied Wu Peiyong is with him, he will not lose his position to take him to Gao Chengsong to talk about things. What are you kidding, let the secretary of the provincial party committee clean up a section-level cadre, and Gao Chengsong can't afford to lose this person if it is passed out!

And Xia Xiang also dared to guarantee that no matter how arrogant Wu Peiyong was outside, he also had political wisdom and was very good at behaving in front of Gao Chengsong, otherwise Gao Chengsong would not have indulged him so much.

The secretary of the municipal party committee and the mayor of the following cities are afraid of Wu Peiyong, he doesn't have to be afraid, Wu Peiyong will be angry at most, and then find a chance to embarrass him, and he won't be able to help him for a while. The opportunity is also two-sided, Wu Peiyong wants to find a chance to clean him up, and he is not waiting for the opportunity to fight back against Wu Peiyong once.

A week later, news came from the charter that Hong Zhaoguang, the new mayor of the charter city, was suddenly transferred out of the charter city and served as the deputy director of the Yan Provincial Veteran Cadres Bureau.

Everyone knows that Hong Zhaoguang's political life has come to an end.

After Xia Xiang heard the news, he was shocked and speechless for a long time! Shi Lao didn't make a move, and when he made a move, it was a thunderous blow, directly bringing a mayor's career to the end, how much energy did he have? To be able to move the mayor of the charter city, he must pass the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, and Shi Lao really spared no effort in order to maintain Li Dingshan!

It's just that what he never understands is what hole cards Shi Lao has in his hand, why has he retired for so many years, and the impact of changing the political scene of Yan Province with a raise of his hand?

Xia Xiang sighed that Song Chaodu's move to persuade Li Dingshan to enter politics did not show the wisdom of his original decision until today, and finally under the huge pressure of Gao Chengsong, he pried open the first loose gap.

At the beginning of August, the political situation in Yan Province ushered in a new shock, and Gao Jinzhou, the airborne vice governor, took office.

The first thing Governor Gao did when he took office was to inspect the Xili Village Forest Park and asked Xia Xiang to accompany him by name.

The vice governor named a section-level cadre, and the meaning of this will certainly evoke people's imagination. Chen Feng didn't think much about it, he knew the origin of Gao Jinzhou, and he also knew that Gao Lao appreciated Xia Xiang. Cao Yongguo was puzzled, although it was said that when a vice governor came to Yan Province, there were too many places that were restricted, even Yan City might not give face to the vice governor who did not have the title of Standing Committee, but after all, the vice governor was a legitimate vice provincial cadre, and Gao Jinzhou was parachuted down from the capital, how did he know that Xia Xiang wanted to accompany him by name?

Being named by the deputy governor is an honor, a political signal, no matter what. Cao Yongguo didn't know whether to be glad that Xia Xiang's luck was unbelievably good, or whether to worry about him, and the result of being noticed by more people was that the tree was very popular.

However, what Chen Feng and Cao Yongguo didn't expect was that after hearing the news that Xia Xiang had rejected the three constructions of the charter city, Wu Peiyong, who was furious, was about to find a way to clean up Xia Xiang, when he heard that Gao Jin Zhou asked Xia Xiang to accompany him, he immediately retracted his thoughts. Originally, Hong Zhaoguang was transferred out of Charter City, which also surprised Wu Peiyong, but he obviously didn't realize what connection there was between Hong Zhaoguang's transfer and Xia Xiang, and he also thought that through the people of Yan City's municipal axe, Xia Xiang would find Xia Xiang to regain face, and Gao Jin spoke on Monday, and Wu Peiyong obediently temporarily suppressed the fire in his heart.

Even Shen Fuming was much more honest, and asked the third charter to return to the charter city first, and then talk about it when the time was ripe. Shen Fuming is not stupid, Hong Zhaoguang was just about to show Li Dingshan color, but his political future was directly wiped out, and someone must have acted behind the scenes. Although he doesn't know who it is, no matter who it is, it is a character who makes Secretary Gao jealous! Shen Fuming knew that he couldn't afford to mess with him.

And he also understood that although Secretary Gao transferred him to Yan Province as a vice governor, a vice governor was immediately parachuted into the capital, which means self-evident, balance, political balance. The political situation in Yan Province has undergone subtle changes, from the previous Gao Secretary and his family to the dominance, and slowly squeezed into some new forces, first the airborne Secretary General Qian Jinsong, and now Gao Jin Zhou Gao, Vice Governor, when did all the changes begin? Shen Fuming couldn't figure it out and couldn't figure it out, but he knew one thing in his heart, except for being low-key, except for keeping up with Secretary Gao's pace, there was no way out, unless he wanted to go home to retire now.

Xia Xiang could also speculate on the subtle changes in the situation in Yan Province, and what he saw more clearly than Shen Fuming was that a small turning point in the situation in Yan Province actually began when Li Dingshan took office as secretary of the Ba County Party Committee. It is precisely because of Li Dingshan's appointment that the original historical course has been changed, and Song Chaodu also tied himself to Shi Lao's ship in an obscure way because of Li Dingshan's relationship.

Gao Jinzhou's airborne, calculated seriously, is actually one of the influences he brings. Because of him, Lian Ruohan came to Yan City to open the market of Yan City for his family. In later generations, it was not until more than ten years later that the real estate developers in the capital began to close the market of Yan City, and it can be said that Lian Ruohan's early intervention was more than ten years earlier than the original process. It was also the huge power of the Lian Ruohan family that led to Gao Jinzhou's airborne. In the previous political situation of Yan Province, there was no Gao Jinzhou at all.

Although Gao Jinzhou is only the vice governor, he is only 48 years old! The 48-year-old vice governor, everyone knows that he is not coming down too much or coming to retire, but to gild and make political achievements, and he is from the capital, young and has a backstage, don't look at it as just an ordinary vice governor, who dares to say that he will not suddenly hang up the Standing Committee after a year? Therefore, Gao Jinzhou and Shen Fuming are also vice governors, and Gao Jinzhou ranks last in the provincial political axe, but everyone looks up to him.

Since it is the vice governor who has an order, how dare Xia Xiang disobey? What's more, it was Lian Ruohan's place that was inspected. He got up early this morning, came to the office first, sorted out the relevant information, and explained the matter, then called Zhong Yiping and asked him to accompany him to the forest park.

Zhong Yiping was overjoyed, the leader trusts you, so he will let you accompany him, and he wants to accompany the vice governor to inspect, which is a big face. He hurriedly took the car keys, hurriedly helped Xia Xiang open the car door, got into the car and drove all the way to the forest park.

On the way, Xia Xiang talked to Lian Ruohan on the phone again and made an appointment to meet. Even Ruohan still had a faint tone, as if his identity was only Director Xia, and her identity was just President Lian, even his sister and Ruohan disappeared in Xia Xiang's eyes. Since the last time they met in the moonlight of the lotus pond, although the two have met a few times, each time it is business, even Ruohan is cold and cold, and there is no smile on Xia Xiang.

Xia Xiang didn't force her, and he knew that she was unhappy, and she couldn't say what she wanted to say, so she had to get along with her not far away. Even Cao Shumu, who often went to design plans and draw drawings, felt Lian Ruohan's alienation, and asked Xia Xiang if he had offended Sister Lian, Xia Xiang was speechless.

He offended her, and he was not lightly offended, but he couldn't make her forgive himself. How to forgive? Do you want to tell her that I can't marry you, and I dare not marry you, but I do like you too, and be the woman behind me, okay?

According to Xia's thoughts, he would definitely be able to impress Lian Ruohan and make her agree. But he couldn't say it, he couldn't do it, even Ruohan agreed, he didn't dare to agree. Lian Ruohan is no one else, there is a huge family behind her that can parachute a vice governor in order to open the Yan City market, and the energy is far greater than he imagined.

He can't be with Lian Ruohan, it's not a joke, it's that once her family has an attack, maybe all it takes is a phone call to bring everything he has worked hard to naught, and it may even affect Cao Yongguo, and maybe even harm Cao Shumu...... You can't be selfish enough to care about your own good, and Xia Xiang knows very well that even if he breaks off the relationship with Cao Shumu and throws himself into Lian Ruohan's family power without hesitation, even if Lian Ruohan's family is finally willing to agree to let Lian Ruohan marry him, he doesn't dare to gamble with his family name.

He is still as small as a small grass, if he really wants to devote himself to Lian Ruohan's family, he will not be able to get rid of the fate of being at the mercy of others!

And since he has lived again, he has to control his own destiny and does not want to be controlled by others! Moreover, Xia Xiang is also very aware of the terrible power of some families, they may not have resorted to any unexpected means in order to cut off his contact with Cao Shumu and cut off his back road.

He didn't want to hurt anyone.

Xia Xiang clearly knows what he wants, and he also knows what he can and can't do, so he can only stay away from Lian Ruohan, if he can't be a good friend, he can just be an ordinary friend, and contribute to her career, which can be regarded as dedication.

Zhong Yiping saw Xia Xiang's preoccupied appearance, and asked with concern: "Director Xia, is there anything uncomfortable?" ”

Xia Xiang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Think about something personal, don't worry so much, drive your car well." Your driving skills are also average, practice more in the future, and when I don't use the car, you can practice more. ”

Zhong Yiping nodded hurriedly: "I got my driver's license when I was in college, and I didn't have much contact with cars later, so I was a little handy...... Director Xia, rest assured, I will work hard. ”

Xia Xiang was the first to rush to the forest park.

It is said that it is a forest park, but in fact it is still a wasteland, and the scene is a mess, but a circle of walls has been simply built and a sign has been erected, on which are the renderings drawn.

The overall relocation of Xili Village has come to an end, and there has been little resistance. First, the conditions offered by Envision Group were favorable enough, and second, the support of the Urban Village Reconstruction Team Office was strong enough, so most of the villagers were very satisfied and happily moved into temporary resettlement houses. Of course, there were also some scoundrels who wanted to take the opportunity to make a fortune, but under the powerful offensive of Wu Gangde, they were unable to form an army, and finally they were defeated, so they had to give up.

Xia Xiang has been doing a lot lately, although as the designated contact person of Envision Group, there are not many opportunities to come to the Forest Park site these days. He looked around and saw that the site was fairly level, and some workers in the distance were busy sorting out the saplings that had been transported. There are also some bulldozers leveling the site, and in the distance there is a small grove of trees that has taken shape, a lush patch, which makes people feel comfortable to see.

According to Xia Xiang's suggestion, the forest park should plant some ready-made trees and some saplings, and give the forest a chance to grow. As for what trees to plant, how to plant them at intervals, what soil is suitable for planting what trees, and so on, there are naturally garden experts who are worried about it, and Xia Xiang is a layman, so he will no longer express his opinion.

It didn't take long for even Ruohan to arrive.

Even Ruohan still drives a Land Rover, but the car has been repaired and polished, and it looks a lot newer. She jumped out of the car, jeans and a small T-shirt, just like a student. She nodded and smiled at Xia Xiang: "I want to dig an artificial lake in the woods, build a villa in the center of the lake, and help me come up with a name?" ”

Xia wanted to see that Lian Ruohan had no makeup on her face, and she was still delicate and delicate, so she thought that her natural beauty was really true, and a really beautiful woman didn't need makeup. He heard that even Ruohan's idea was quite interesting, so he said: "The idea is very good, you can invite many friends to come to the party then, but the name is not very good, it is better to call it Huxinju." ”

Lian Ruohan was disgusted: "I don't use my brain at all, it's perfunctory." ”

Speaking of the party, Xia Xiangcai remembered that he had promised Gao Jianyuan to take Lian Ruohan to his drinking party, and hesitated to ask Lian Ruohan, but Lian Ruohan's eyes were very sharp, and he could see at a glance that he had something to say, so he said unceremoniously: "If you have anything to say, do you think I am not dressed very formally?" ”

"yes, I was wondering, do you have a dress?" Xia Xiang found an entry point and asked.

"Of course there is, what do you ask for? Want to go to a party or a cocktail party? Lian Ruohan guessed seven or eight at once, but then she said, "Even if you go to the party, you have to bring a Mucuna girl and ask me what to do?" ”

Xia wanted to touch his nose, so he had to tell the truth: "Look, Ruohan, we are also old friends, although old friends are not necessarily good friends, but after all, there is also a bit of friendship, I will tell the truth, if you don't like to hear it, just don't hear it...... Gao Jianyuan never forgot you, he always thought you were my girlfriend and wanted to invite me to his drinking party with you, but I didn't agree directly, saying that I wanted to ask for your opinion. ”

Lian Ruohan smiled, and his smile was a little meaningful, which made Xia Xiang scratch his head. After laughing for a while, she said, "If you want to take the opportunity to get close to Gao Jianyuan and deepen the relationship, you want to betray me, don't you?" What if he knows I'm not your girlfriend and wants to pursue me? ”

Lian Ruohan threw out a difficult question, which was also a test with red flags.

Xia Xiang scratched his head, and suddenly pointed to the distance with his hand: "Governor Gao's convoy is here, go and greet it." He remembered something and asked again, "Why didn't Elder Gao come?" ”

Lian Ruohan was angry and gave him a blank look: "No guts, coward!" However, he still answered his question, "Lao Tzu doesn't receive his son, and Gao Lao is too lazy to come forward." ”

In fact, Gao Jinzhou was a light car today, only bringing a secretary and a driver, and even the deputy secretary general of the provincial political axe was not allowed to accompany him, which can be described as a pragmatic style. Gao Jinzhou also informed the city early in the morning that he did not need to be accompanied by city officials, and he came to inspect the forest park purely out of love for the woods, with more personal interests and less work surname.

To put it very clearly, the symbolism is greater than the actual meaning. But for an airborne vice governor, who came to inspect the forest park before he started his work, who didn't know that the investors in the forest park came from the capital, and Gao Jinzhou was also airborne from the capital, and the meaning was about to come out.

I didn't want to be accompanied by people from the city, and I asked Xia Xiang to come forward by name, and Xia Xiang was the designated contact person of Envision Group, so the relationship between Xia Xiang and Envision Group, the relationship between Envision Group and Governor Gao, and the relationship between Governor Gao and Xia Xiang became the talk of everyone in the municipal axe compound for a while.

The 48-year-old Gao Jinzhou looks very young, perhaps because of good maintenance, he looks only in his early 40s, a few points younger than Li Dingshan. He is not too tall, his face is white, and at first glance, he looks like a scholar who is a scholar, Xia Xiang thought, he is really deeply influenced by Gao Lao, Gao Jin Zhou has been an official for many years, and he also has the demeanor of a scholar, which shows that the origin of family education is extremely important.

Gao Jinzhou's voice was not high, a little soft, not quite like a northern accent, he and Xia wanted to shake hands, there was no arrogance: "Xiao Xia, I used to hear Mr. Lian mention you, saying that you are not young and very stable. Now I often hear my father talk about you, saying that you are very talented in design, and if you can devote yourself to the planning industry, you will definitely become everyone. Don't look at me, I haven't seen you before, but your name is like thunder, and if you say something unpleasant, I'm still a little jealous of you......"
