Chapter 13: Money Confusion
Cheng Xiaoxi in the tree could no longer sit idly by, quickly slid down from the tree, called Li Xiaoning's name and ran over.
"I'm fine!" Li Xiaoning replied tiredly, and then slowly stood up, with blood stains on his chest.
"You're hurt?" Cheng Xiaoxi asked nervously.
"Nope!" Li Xiaoning shook his head and said, "This is the blood of a wild boar." ”
Cheng Xiaoxi checked Li Xiaoning up and down, and after confirming that there were no major injuries except for a few abrasions, he looked at the wild boar that had fallen to the ground and did not move, and asked, "What happened just now?" Scared the hell out of me, all! ”
"You'll find out if you come and see." Li Xiaoning took Cheng Xiaoxi's hand and walked to the wild boar, pointed to an egg-thick branch inserted in the wild boar's eye and said, "I thought I was going to hang it just now, but I happened to touch this branch at hand, so I picked it up, and this beast bumped into it by itself, and then stabbed himself to death." ”
Cheng Xiaoxi looked at the carcass of the wild boar again, then suddenly turned around and hugged Li Xiaoning tightly, and said in his ear: "Xiaoning." You're so brave! I love you to death! ”
What is it that attracts men to women the most? In the end, it is still masculine, not white and pure like a woman. A man with a sense of masculinity is a real man. Only real men exude the smell of men! A man with a sense of masculinity must be a man with blood, and a man without blood is not a real man at all.
Li Xiaoning's expression just now has nothing to do with the background attached to his official position and other society, it is purely the most true essence of the expression, which makes Cheng Xiaoxi realize what a real man is. She took the initiative to kiss Li Xiaoning's forehead, eyebrows, eyes, and then kissed her lips.
It took a while for Cheng Xiaoxi to calm down. The two returned to the bottom of the mountain along the river bank and found a small hotel to live in, and the danger they encountered on the mountain did not make the two afraid, but stimulated them to be more emotional. Although the guest room was simple, it could not hinder the interest of the two of them at all, and they didn't know how many spring breezes they had to spend overnight before finally falling asleep with each other.
Happy times are always short-lived. Li Xiaoning is now the highest administrator of a county, although he is now in a state of being elevated, it is impossible to be immersed in the love of children all the time. After breakfast, Li Xiaoning drove Cheng Xiaoxi to the train station, bought a bullet train ticket to Binhai, watched Cheng Xiaoxi get on the train, and only after the train started, he drove back to the county government.
As soon as Li Xiaoning walked into the office, he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw a tall middle-aged man sitting on the sofa with a big back in the style of a gambling god. This is the county magistrate's office, how did this person get in? There is no doubt that it must have been put in. Don't think about it, this person is certainly not simple.
Although Li Xiaoning's heart was full of questions, he did not bring them out on his face, but calmly walked behind the desk and sat down, and asked lightly, "May I ask who you are?" Is there anything wrong with coming to me? ”
The middle-aged man stood up, took out a golden business card from his pocket, handed it over with both hands, and said with a smile: "This is my film, please County Magistrate Li accept it with a smile." ”
Li Xiaoning said in his heart that this person is really interesting, a business card is like a gift, but as soon as he took the business card, he chuckled in his heart, because the business card was heavy, it was not made of paper, and if you looked closely, it was actually made of 24K pure gold. It is printed with Long Kaida, chairman and president of Kaida Real Estate Group.
"It turned out to be Mr. Long!" Li Xiaoning put the business card on the table, smiled and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”
Long Kaida took out Nanjing Bojing cigarettes and handed them to Li Xiaoning, and said with a smile: "That's the case, I heard that the cement factory is going to be auctioned, and our company is very interested, so I came to listen to the guidance of County Magistrate Li." ”
Li Xiaoning took Long Kaida's cigarette with a smile, lit it and said, "Mr. Long went to the wrong door." It's a good thing that you want to buy a cement plant, but you said that the cement plant is a public auction this time, so you can just go to the auction. What guidance can I hear here? In one sentence, I can guarantee the interests of nearly 1,000 workers in the cement plant. ”
When Long Kaida saw that Li Xiaoning had accepted his business card and smoked his own cigarette, his expression immediately relaxed a lot, and he said with a smile: "County Magistrate Li!" Don't talk to me anymore. This time I asked very clearly, people said that you personally supervised and responsible for this project, and you were the one who made the final decision, and I didn't look for you at all, hehe. ”
Li Xiaoning couldn't help frowning. Long Kaida's words revealed a piece of information, that is, the cement factory has been targeted by many people, and there are many people in the government who are the eyes of these businessmen.
Now Li Xiaoning has matured a lot, he doesn't want to be a clean official like Hai Rui, although Hai Rui is clean but pedantic, he can only be offered to the Buddha shrine, because that kind of official is not a real good official, a real good official should not be alone, but should also seek benefits for the people under his rule. Zhang Juzheng, who has been around for hundreds of years, once said, "It is better to follow history than to be a clear stream", the reason is that although a clean official like Hai Rui will not do bad things, he will not be able to do great things. As an official, what you want is to benefit one party, otherwise why do you need to be an official? Wouldn't it be better to be a professor?
It is precisely because of this understanding that Li Xiaoning smokes Long Kaida's cigarettes, after all, Long Kaida is now here to solve the problem for himself. If you don't smoke or drink water, and you refuse people thousands of miles away, people won't deal with you, and it will be impossible for you to benefit the people. But Li Xiaoning's starting point is to strive for the greatest interests of the country and the people, and at the same time, he also has his own bottom line, that is, he will never use his power to collect a penny for himself.
However, the meaning of Long Kaida's words was obviously to seek his own interests, so Li Xiaoning couldn't give in, so he immediately said in a deep voice: "Mr. Long." I still say the same thing, you want to participate in the bidding of the cement plant, I welcome it. But the rest, don't talk about it anymore. ”
Long Kaida saw that Li Xiaoning didn't mean to be accommodating, so he took out a big cowhide bag from his Hermes bag, gently put it on Li Xiaoning's table and said: "County Magistrate Li, no matter whether this thing works out or not, I just want to make you a friend, this is a little meaning, and I ask County Magistrate Li to give him a face." ”
Li Xiaoning glanced at the bag, and without opening it, he knew that there were at least ten or two hundred thousand yuan in it, which was a big deal in a poor place like Xinpi County. Of course, needless to say, he doesn't collect money, even with his current net worth of hundreds of millions, he will never put this money in his eyes.
However, Li Xiaoning did not put down his face, but smiled and said, "Mr. Long." As long as you contribute to the development of Xinpi County and let the people benefit, you are my friend. But don't put this money here, you know, our public officials accept this thing, then take a bribe, and if you give this thing, it is called bribery. They all have to go to jail, and Long doesn't want to go to jail, right? ”
Long Kaida doesn't know how many times he has done this kind of thing today, he doesn't know how many officials he has seen behind his mouth that he doesn't collect money and collects more than anyone else. Therefore, after listening to Li Xiaoning's words, he didn't take it to heart and didn't take the money, but said with a smile: "County Magistrate Li, I said it, I didn't show it to you for this matter, I just want to make you a friend." As he spoke, Long Kaida prepared to leave.
Li Xiaoning laughed in his heart: If you don't do this, then why didn't you send it to me in the past? Seeing that Long Kaida was leaving, he said lightly: "Mr. Long, you'd better take this thing away." Otherwise, I had to call the Commission for Discipline Inspection to take it away. Because I don't want to go to jail, and I don't want you to go to jail. ”
When Long Kaida heard this, he was a little stupid, there are really fools in this world who don't make money? He looked at Li Xiaoning's cold expression, hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Then since County Magistrate Li insists on it like this, I will take it back first and talk about it next time." As he spoke, he picked up the brown paper bag on the table.
"And this business card!" Li Xiaoning said lightly, "I have already written down Mr. Long's name and contact information. Let's take back the business card. I don't have a place to put it here. ”
"Uh, okay." Long Kaida had no choice but to take back the business card made of pure gold, and then left listlessly.
After sending Long Kaida away, Li Xiaoning called Yu Jingbo to send him the detailed information of the three townships in the south. This time, he accompanied Cheng Xiaoxi to play Matou Mountain, which made Li Xiaoning have an idea in his heart. The three townships in the southern part of Xinpi County have hilly terrain, the land cannot hold water, grain is not easy to grow, industrial projects are not easy to build, and economic conditions have always been poor. However, it has the advantage of good climate and good air, and it is a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, so it is possible to make use of the innate geographical conditions to develop tourism.
After reading the materials in the office for a whole day, when the sky was getting dark, a general plan took shape in Li Xiaoning's mind - Matou Mountain is not a famous mountain, so it is not suitable for pure geographical tourism, and there is not enough cultural background to support humanistic tourism, but it is important to maintain the original ecology, which is also the most lacking and longing thing for people in the city now.
Therefore, Li Xiaoning's idea is to engage in original ecological family vacation tourism in Matou Mountain. The specific approach is to build some well-equipped residential courtyards, which are operated by a family in a decentralized manner, so that guests can cook by themselves, grow their own vegetables, feed some animals by themselves, and of course let guests go to herd cattle, so as to turn the entire mountainous area into a family resort tourist area. Later, when the economy permits, you can also run several nursing homes.
Of course, the infrastructure of Matoushan is not yet complete, and if you want to achieve the effect that Li Xiaoning imagined, you still have to build roads, build water supply pipelines, and train personnel. And these are all things that require money. If there is no money, Li Xiaoning's ideas can only be utopian.
"Looks like you have to think of a way to get money first!" Li Xiaoning muttered to himself, the pen in his hand wrote a money word on the paper, and then drew another circle outside the money word......
