Wu Chengguang arranged dinner in a private restaurant, a quarter of an hour's drive from the city hall, from the restaurant owner personally greeted him, Wu Chengguang was obviously a regular customer here, the restaurant owner arranged a small box for the two, after sitting down, Wu Chengguang asked Lu Chen to order, and Lu Chen asked him to arrange it casually.

Wu Chengguang was puzzled: "Mayor Lu, I don't know what kind of taste you are suitable for?" ”

"I'm suitable for all tastes, and tonight we're mainly talking, drinking and talking, just a few snacks." Lu Chen said that the restaurant owner who heard this was stunned, and suspected that Mayor Lu was a good drinker.

Deputy Mayor Lu's alcohol consumption is very good, this Wu Chengguang knows, of course he will not misunderstand Lu Chen as a good drinker like the restaurant owner, but he seems to know the restaurant owner very well, the latter's expression made him very worried, glared at him and asked him to quickly prepare a few Baiyue City's special appetizers, the restaurant owner should have turned around and left.

Suddenly, Lu Chen asked, "Chengguang, do you often come to this restaurant to eat?" ”

Wu Chengguang hurriedly explained: "Mayor Lu, the owner of this restaurant is my cousin, named Huang Wangcai. ”

Lu Chen said "oh" and then laughed and said, "I said, how can you be so familiar with him." ”

Wu Chengguang was shocked in his heart, because he estimated that Lu Chen had also noticed his cousin's abnormality just now, if Mayor Lu was displeased because of this, then wouldn't he be dragged down, so he hurriedly explained: "Mayor Lu, my cousin is not calm enough to make you laugh." ”

Lu Chen said: "It's okay, okay, you can introduce me to the situation in the city now." ”

Wu Chengguang should have sorted out his thoughts a little and began to introduce, during which the restaurant owner Huang Wangcai came in with wine and food three times, and occasionally interrupted Wu Chengguang's introduction, and the third time Wu Chengguang was almost finished, Lu Chen asked Huang Wangcai to sit down, he wanted to listen to him talk about the affairs of Baiyue citizens, such as the business world, and before Wu Chengguang introduced only things in the officialdom.

Huang Wangcai looked at his cousin, Wu Chengguang glared at him again and said, "Do what Mayor Lu said, tell everything you know." ”

"Yes, yes." Huang Wangcai hurriedly answered and sat down, and then introduced himself to Lu Chen, his eloquence is good, and he knows a lot, so that Lu Chen knows a lot of gossip, although he can't believe it all, but he can also use it for reference.

After dinner, Lu Chen asked Wu Chengguang to drive him around the city, and called Huang Wangcai, the driving speed was very slow, Wu Chengguang was responsible for driving, and Huang Wangcai was responsible for introducing the place names to Lu Chen along the way, and the entire urban area was turned in two hours, including some alleys that could be opened to traffic.

The urban scale of Baiyue City is actually not large, which is mainly affected by two factors: first, the economy is underdeveloped, and there is not much money to invest in urban construction; Second, it is located in a mountainous area, even if there is money, there is not much gentle land for development and expansion, if you want to expand, you have to blow up the mountain, the cost is large.

Baiyue City is located in the west of Guizhou Province, the upper reaches of the Youjiang River, with a total area of 36,000 square kilometers, connecting with Yunzhou Province in the west, Qianzhou Province in the north, Yongzhou City, the provincial capital in the east, and Vietnam in the south, with a border of more than 360 kilometers.

The terrain of the whole territory of Baiyue City is 320 kilometers long from east to west, 230 kilometers wide from north to south, the terrain is high from north to south and low in the middle, and the terrain is inclined from northwest to southeast, which belongs to a typical mountainous area, in the total area, the mountainous area accounts for more than 95 percent, and the hilly and flat principle is less than 5 percent.

The city has jurisdiction over 12 districts and counties, with a total population of more than 4 million people, including Zhuang, Han, Yao, Miao, Yi, Gelao, Hui and other seven ethnic groups, the minority population accounts for nearly ninety percent of the total population, of which the Zhuang population accounts for eighty percent of the total population, the popular Zhuang language in the territory, the Zhuang Buluotuo culture, the black cloth Zhuang culture, the Zhuang brocade culture, the North Road Zhuang opera culture, the Zhuang Song culture, etc. are included in the list of intangible cultural heritage of the Government Council, of course, Chinese is also indispensable.

The above is what Lu Chen learned from the information, due to the complex terrain and geography and the weak economic foundation, the industry of Baiyue City is still very underdeveloped, Lu Chen estimated that the province instructed the city to let himself be in charge of the industry The purpose is to drive the city's industry, for which he has a preliminary plan in mind, but whether the plan is feasible still needs to be determined after field research.

That night, Lu Chen successively received calls from Cheng Qijiang and Liu Zili, and asked him about going to Baiyue City to take office, saying that they would come to Baiyue City tomorrow with some children of the family and bosses, Lu Chen asked them what they were doing in such a hurry, and both of them smiled and said that they came to see him.

Lu Chen believed that they had this intention, but it was expected that they had other purposes, so they asked, Cheng and Liu had to say that they still wanted to find business opportunities, and they also supported Lu Boss's work, Lu Chen said that this was not in a hurry, and he had to spend some time researching, and he would talk about it after the research.

Cheng Qijiang and Liu Zili were stunned, and then asked if they could come over tomorrow, Lu Chen said no, because he still had to go to the district and county, he didn't have time to receive them, let them wait for their notice, Cheng and Liu could only say okay.

After ending the call with Cheng and Liu, Lu Chen looked at the time, it was only about ten o'clock, so he called Yanjing's home, which is a must every night, this time it was Shen Mengdie who answered the phone, and after asking about the situation of the woman and the children, Lu Chen said: "Wife, when will you come to Baiyue to see me?" ”

"What's the matter, haven't you been away for a few days?" Shen Mengdie asked with a smile.

Lu Chen said "uh" and then said with a lustful voice: "Wife, I didn't mean that, but after you reminded me like this, I was ready to move." ”

"How dare you mess around?!" Shen Mengdie shouted, immediately attracted the attention of the other women, and hurriedly asked her what was going on, Shen Mengdie relayed Lu Chen's words to them as they were, and the women immediately leaned over and threatened Lu Chen on the phone, saying that if he dared to mess around over there, he wouldn't want to enter the house.

Lu Chen asked Shen Mengdie to turn the landline to speakerphone, and then said with a wry smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, you misunderstood me." ”

"What misunderstanding, don't we know your virtue?" It was Shen Qingyi who spoke.

Lu Chen said: "My self-control ability is actually quite strong. ”

"And what did you just say?" Shen Qingyi asked.

"I just said that as a joke, to find out which of you would come and accompany me." Lu Chen explained.
