Chapter 0041: Mayor Gu
Early the next morning, Lin Nongtu went to the greenhouse and waited for the city government's car to come. After all, only he knows about this matter, and then he has to negotiate the price.
Although Yu San and the others were all curious about why Lin Nongtu got up so early today and waited, they were also busy delivering food, so they didn't ask.
At 7:15, an Isuzu slowly drove to the outside of Xiantu Manor. A man about forty years old got out of the car, walked directly to Lin Nongtu and said, "You are Lin Nongtu, I was sent by the city government to deliver food!" Is the dish already packed? ”
"I don't know how many catties you want, but yesterday Mr. Jiang said that it was a few hundred catties, so I prepared three hundred catties, is it enough?" Lin Nongtu asked,
"That's enough!" After the man finished speaking, the two of them came and carried the vegetables directly into the car. Originally, the forest farmers were looking to help, but they seemed reluctant to do so, saying they could.
After loading, Lin Nongtu followed the car to the county seat.
People in Yunlin County are accustomed to calling Yunlin County as Yunlin County, but Yunlin City is a county-level city. Although the city is not very developed, it is still a relatively small city. Compared with the big cities in the provincial capitals, of course, it is not comparable. But in the Eastern Province, it's not so bad either.
An hour's drive away, the car slowly stopped in front of the city hall canteen. The two people who moved the vegetables in the back quickly moved the vegetables in, and the driver directly gave a list of forest farmers.
"This is my receipt for receiving vegetables, you can take it to the finance department of the city government for settlement!" With that, the driver began to leave there.
Looking at this receipt, Lin Nongtu was really confused. The price has not been negotiated yet, so how can I settle it with the finance department. So, he called Jiang Linfeng directly.
After explaining the situation to Jiang Linfeng, about ten minutes or so, Jiang Linfeng arrived in front of him.
"Didn't I tell you to go to the mayor?" Jiang Linfeng said impatiently,
"Well, do you think that for such a trivial matter as the price of groceries, you have to find the mayor?" Lin Nongtu asked suspiciously,
After hearing this, Jiang Linfeng also reacted. For such a small matter, you have to report to the mayor, does it seem that you are too incompetent.
"Okay, that's it, you can say as much as you want!" Jiang Linfeng said, looking at Lin Nongtu's asking price.
"I'll give you a discount, is that okay?" In fact, Lin Nongtu originally wanted to give it away for free, but after all, this is too ostentatious, and a discount should be acceptable.
"That doesn't work, 5% off, 5% off. You give me the list, and I'll write you the price. In the future, you can just come to the knot once a month, and you don't have to get it so often. After all, this is the city government! Jiang Linfeng said and walked in.
Twenty minutes later, Jiang Linfeng came over with the receipt and asked Lin Rongtu to go to the finance department to settle the settlement.
After collecting the money, Lin Nongtu finally felt a little more relaxed. At the same time, I thought that it seemed that delivering food to the city government was also a chore!
Lin Nongtu walked out of the city government, thinking about whether to tell Jiang Lao about the news. After all, the food provided by the city government was proposed by Jiang Lao. Then, it must be inseparable from Jiang Lao.
"Hey, Jiang Lao? The city hall has decided to ask for my food! Lin Nongtu said,
"Yes! You're Xiaolin, congratulations! Jiang Lao said slowly,
"This is the credit of Jiang Lao, I am just a vegetable grower!" Lin Nong Tu said,
"You kid, how much do you charge for a pound of vegetables?" Jiang Lao asked,
"15 yuan a catty, it's already a five-percent discount. But I wanted to give it a discount, or supply it for free. Lin Nongtu said,
"It's nice to have it for free, but it feels like it's done on purpose. So, you might as well keep the price! I don't want you to sell vegetables and run at a loss! Jiang Lao said, thinking about the consequences of being free. After all, this matter is what he wanted.
"Then I'll listen to Jiang Lao. It's nothing, then I'll go back to Yucheng Village first! Lin Nongtu said,
"Otherwise, you can accompany me to play a game of chess first!" Jiang Lao said jokingly,
Thinking of another whole day, Lin Nongtu said decisively, "I still have some things, I have to go back first, next time!" ”
"It's a pity, Mayor Gu will also come over, and I want you to see his demeanor!" Jiang Lao said,
"Jiang Lao, do you mean it really? Mayor Gu will go to you, then I'll come over! I haven't asked yet, where is your home? Lin Nongtu asked,
"Your position at the entrance of the city hall, you wait, I'll have someone pick you up right away!" After Jiang Lao finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly.
Ten minutes later, a small car slowly stopped in front of Lin Nongtu, and opened the window to let Lin Nongtu enter the back seat.
Lin Nongtu went into the car and found that there was another person in the car, who seemed to be in his forties. It looks very majestic. Thinking of Jiang Lao's statement that the mayor would come, Lin Nongtu couldn't help but wonder if the person in front of him was the mayor.
Thinking that it was the mayor, Lin Nongtu was nervous. After coming to his senses, Lin Nongtu wanted to greet him and see if it was the mayor. But he picked up the newspaper and looked at it. At this time, Lin Nongtu found that there were a lot of today's newspapers in the car. The newspapers reported on some of the city's big and small events.
Lin Nongtu sat silently in the car for more than twenty minutes, and the car slowly stopped.
"Young man, it's here!" The middle-aged man reading the newspaper just now said, Lin Nongtu reacted and hurriedly got out of the car.
If you look at the buildings here, you can see that this is an old building built in the 90s of the last century, but it has a retro taste. The buildings of that era were also of good quality.
Following the middle-aged man just now, Lin Nongtu walked to the fourth floor of the building.
"Elder Jiang, I'm here!" The middle-aged man said,
The door slowly opened, and Jiang Lao came out and patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder and said, "It seems that Mayor Gu is getting busier and busier, and he doesn't have much time to accompany me, an old man!" ”
"How can Jiang Lao be an old man, don't I come over to accompany you whenever I have time!" Mayor Gu said,
"Okay, it's good to come!" Jiang Lao said,
Seeing that they were talking about the same, Lin Nongtu said, "Hello Jiang Lao, I'm here!" ”
Jiang Lao smiled and said, "Come in and sit, do you have to chat outside?" ”
Mayor Gu was the first to go in, and Lin Nongtu followed in.
Watching Jiang Lao and Mayor Gu talking and laughing, Lin Nongtu felt very small. Needless to say, Mayor Gu is the mayor of a city. Jiang Lao, if Mayor Gu can be so respected, he must also be a big man who has retired. When I think of myself, I am just an ordinary vegetable farmer.
However, Lin Nongtu thought again, everyone is just a different status, but they are just ordinary people. Thinking of these, Lin Nongtu suddenly became much brighter.
Jiang Lao suddenly shouted, "Come, Xiaolin, come here!" ”
Lin Nongtu understood and walked over.
"This is my life-saving benefactor, Lin Nongtu, who is also a vegetable seller. At the same time, he is also a master of chess," Jiang Lao said,
Mayor Gu nodded and said, "It seems that Xiaolin, you are young and promising, you can do medical skills at a young age, and you can create an industry." If there were more young people like you in this city, I, the mayor, wouldn't have to worry too much! ”
"Xiaolin, you should know that he is the mayor, I don't need to introduce him much. If you have any problems in the future, you can ask the mayor to solve them! Jiang Lao said
Lin Nongtu suddenly realized at this time, "It turns out that you are the mayor, I have admired the name for a long time, I didn't expect to see it today, and my temperament is really extraordinary." I believe that under your leadership, this city must have a prosperous situation! ”
Hearing Lin Nongtu's words, Mayor Gu said embarrassedly, "Xiaolin, you really won the award." In fact, I still have a lot of things to do well, and I need everyone's help to better build this city and make it prosperous! ”
Jiang Lao also nodded, after all, governing a city is not something that can be changed by the mayor alone. Instead, it takes the help of many people to do it well.
After the polite remarks, the conversation began to talk about playing chess and other things. I heard that Lin Nongtu's chess skills are very good, and Mayor Gu really wants to play a game with him.
Originally, Lin Nongtu didn't want to play chess with Mayor Gu, after all, it wasn't for that, and it wasn't for not letting it. I really don't know how to play this chess.
At the strong request of Mayor Gu, Lin Nongtu still began to play chess with Mayor Gu.
After a long time, Lin Nongtu and Mayor Gu still did not have a showdown. Mayor Gu was also surprised that someone played chess so well, so that he couldn't be a general.
In the end, it was Jiang Lao's forcible intervention that he hurriedly ended a game of chess.
After lunch, they continued to play chess. This time, Mayor Gu and Jiang Lao played chess, but although Jiang Lao was old and spicy, Mayor Gu was not bad.
The two quickly decided the winner, and the result was that Jiang Lao won. At this time, Jiang Lao realized that Lin Nongtu let Mayor Gu go, otherwise he would have won faster.
Mayor Gu had something to do in the afternoon, so he hurriedly left a card for Lin Nongtu, saying that he could find him if he had something.
Bidding farewell to Mayor Gu, Lin Nongtu was also in a hurry to leave Jiang Lao.
