Twenty minutes later, Lai Xiaohu and Wu Ou arrived in front of the new city government, but fortunately, the doorman knew Wu Ou, and after saying hello, the two walked in.

"Boss Lai, you wait a minute, let me go and see someone." went up to the second floor, Wu Ou suddenly said to Lai Xiaohu. Then I saw him take a look in the corridor and walk in one direction. Seeing Wu Ou's appearance, Lai Xiaohu knew that Wu Ou was looking for a relationship, and after thinking about it, Lai Xiaohu could only follow behind him.

Walking to the door of an office, Wu Ou knocked on the door twice, and soon a voice came from inside: "Come in." ”

As soon as he pushed the door, Wu Ou walked in and saw a middle-aged man in his forties sitting in the middle of it, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Mayor Zhao, I've come to see you." ”

Zhao Liang, the deputy mayor of Xinshi, although he hadn't raised his head yet, he already knew who was coming just by listening to the voice, and he was about to stand up and say hello, but after knowing that Wu Ou was coming, he unhurriedly read a document in his hand before raising his head and saying to Wu Ou: "You will come to see me so kindly?" When did you come to me because you had something to ask for? Anyway, what is it for this time? But the few times you said a few times, I won't mention the relocation of several big factories in the city to you, it's simply impossible. Or as I told you, even if I am willing to support you, other people in the city will not agree, and more importantly, other factories are not willing to do so. ”

Following Wu Ou, seeing and hearing the conversation between Wu Ou and this Mayor Zhao, Lai Xiaohu could guess that this Mayor Zhao should be Wu Ou's backer in the city. And it seems that the relationship between the two should be very good, especially Mayor Zhao did not stand up directly to say hello after hearing that it was Wu Ou coming, but only looked up to speak after finishing processing a document in his hand. In this case, either the relationship between the two people has reached a very casual point, or Mayor Zhao didn't take Wu Ou into account at all. However, according to the conversation between the two people, it is obvious that the former is more reliable. I was able to find such a hard backer in the city. And he was able to handle the relationship so well, Lai Xiaohu couldn't help but glance at Wu Ougao, and this was also the first time that Lai Xiaohu and Wu Ou had been in contact with him for so long.

In the past, Wu Ou nested in such a place in Xinzhen, and Lai Xiaohu never thought that Wu Ou could have much future. But now it seems that he is wrong, he has such a hard backer on it, and as long as he starts to invest in Xinzhen and waits for political achievements, Wu Ou can easily rise as long as he does a little bit.

"How can it," Wu Ou hurriedly shook his head, and then said with a disdainful face: "Those factories are not willing to come, and our people in Xinzhen are not welcome." Now, I'm worried about the pollution in the future. ”

Hearing this, Lai Xiaohu glanced at Wu Ou, and at the same time was glad that Wu Ou's matter was not done, otherwise it would have a very great adverse impact on his future vegetable planting. From the conversation between the two people, it is not difficult for Lai Xiaohu to hear that Wu Ou has been active in the city before, and he wants to relocate several large factories in the city to Xinzhen. It's just that now it seems that this matter should have failed. Except for Mayor Zhao's support for him, there are no other leaders in the city who agree. And more critically. The factories themselves were reluctant to go to Xinzhen. For this matter, Wu Ou should have had a lot of luck before. But in the end, it failed. But for Lai Xiaohu, it's better to fail. If he guessed correctly, these factories should all belong to that kind of polluting factory, if these factories really moved to Xinzhen, then Lai Xiaohu said that he is not willing to invest in Xinzhen, who wants to live with these polluting enterprises all day long.

"Mayor Zhao." Then Wu Ou stood up and said, "I'm here this time mainly for another matter. Then Wu Ou walked to Lai Xiaohu's side, pointed at him and said, "I'll introduce you to this first, if you think about it, maybe you can still think of him." Lai Xiaohu, Lai boss. A native of Xinzhen, he used to be the top student in the college entrance examination in our Henan Province. Later, he entered Nanda University in Tsujo to study. During his time at school, he single-handedly founded the Lejia supermarket, which mainly operated the daily vegetable business, and caused a huge sensation in Jincheng, Beijing and Shanghai. Now it has 17 Lejia supermarkets that have been opened, and nearly 100 branches are under planning. At the same time, Boss Lai became a billionaire from scratch at such a young age, which caused a huge sensation in society. ”

"Roca supermarket, Leca supermarket?" After Wu Ou finished speaking, Mayor Zhao's mouth kept chattering. Suddenly, I saw Zhao Liang stand up directly, then walked to Lai Xiaohu's side and surrounded him, and then directly held Lai Xiaohu's hand and said, "It turns out that you are the owner of Lejia Supermarket." ”

"What? Has Mayor Zhao heard of my Roca supermarket? Hearing this, Lai Xiaohu asked strangely.

"I've heard of it, I've been there myself." Mayor Zhao patted Lai Xiaohu's shoulder a few times and said, "I forgot to introduce you, my surname is Zhao, and my name is Liang." He is now the executive deputy mayor of our new city. However, I am from the capital, and I usually have to return to the capital to live on holidays or something, and my wife and son are also there. Your Lejia supermarket is very famous in the capital, every time I go back, my wife will talk about Lejia supermarket on my lips, and even I have followed my wife to patronize Lejia supermarket a few times. Seriously, the vegetables in your supermarket taste so good that they taste like you're eating something heavenly. ”

At the end, Zhao Liang suddenly interjected, "And your supermarket business is really hot, every time I go, I have to queue for a long time." ”

"Hehe, I didn't expect Mayor Zhao to be a frequent customer of my Lejia supermarket, it's really an honor for Lejia supermarket." Then Lai Xiaohu said: "As for the queuing problem you mentioned, don't worry, I will call the manager of the branch in Beijing later, and Mayor Zhao will go again in the future, and directly ask someone to lead you in to buy something." ”

"Hey, no, no." Hearing this, Zhao Liang hurriedly waved his hand, "Don't, if you do that." I don't know how many people will scold me for using privileges behind my back. And I go out to buy groceries mainly to accompany my wife, as for queuing up or not, it's not a problem. ”

With Lejia Supermarket as the carrier, after two or three sentences, Lai Xiaohu and Zhao Liang became familiar with each other. Zhao Liang pulled Lai Xiaohu and Wu Ou to sit down on the sofa next to them, and then Zhao Liang slapped his thigh again and said to Lai Xiaohu: "I remember, Lai Xiaohu, I have heard your name before." ”

"I patronized the matter of Lejia supermarket just now, and now when I think about it, I remember that you took the college entrance examination to be the champion of our Henan Province, and this incident caused a sensation in the whole new city at that time. And you didn't choose to apply for the best universities in the country, but chose Nanda in Jincheng, which made many people talk about it at that time. But let me tell me. Just for your current achievements, these people who talk about you can shut up. ”

Hearing this, Lai Xiaohu smiled. The fact that he chose to apply for Jincheng Nanda did cause a lot of criticism. After all, in the traditional consciousness, most of the provincial champions in the college entrance examination have two places to go, and the two best universities in the capital can choose one. But Lai Xiaohu was good at that time, and he didn't choose the two best universities in the capital. Even a few universities further down the rankings didn't go. No one thought that Lai Xiaohu would finally choose Nanda in Jincheng.

It's not that NTU is bad, it's just that it's all over the country. There are also several schools that are better than NTU. According to Lai Xiaohu's results at that time. He can choose any university in the country. Under such circumstances, Lai Xiaohu's choice of NTU bypassed the best universities was indeed beyond everyone's expectations.

At that time, after Lai Xiaohu went to NTU, it did cause a lot of discussion in Xinshi. Maybe there is even Zhao Liang in this, who knows if he said bad things about Lai Xiaohu behind his back? It's just that there are more people talking about this kind of thing, and Lai Xiaohu won't care about it. And Zhao Liang is the deputy mayor after all, and he greets him with a smile. There is no need for Lai Xiaohu to dwell on these issues.

A few people sat together and chatted for a while, and then Zhao Liang turned the matter to the point, and then he asked Wu Ou: "Say, what is your kid here for today?" ”

Back to business. Wu Ou also became serious, "That's the case, this matter is actually related to Boss Lai." Isn't there no good development project in Xinzhen, Xinzhen is not developing, and I, as the mayor of the town, are anxious to see it. Other investors were reluctant to come, and at this time, I happened to hear about Boss Lai's business and getting rich outside. Thinking that Boss Lai, as a native of Xinzhen, must be willing to invest in the development of his hometown. ”

"So during the Chinese New Year, I went to Boss Lai and told him about investing in Xinzhen. At that time, because Boss Lai booked a ticket to leave, the two of us just talked briefly. However, it is obvious that Boss Lai is more concerned about investing in Xinzhen than I am, and after less than half a year, Boss Lai has made an investment plan according to the actual situation of Xinzhen, and this time Boss Lai came back to invest in Xinzhen. ”

Listening to Wu Ou's words, Lai Xiaohu, the client, blushed. During the Chinese New Year, Lai Xiaohu was actually not optimistic about investing in Xinzhen. Although he didn't directly refuse at that time, it must be not difficult to hear Wu Ou's cleverness. And what Wu Ou said that he was more concerned about than him, Lai Xiaohu was even more ashamed. In the past six months, Lai Xiaohu has never considered this matter. That is, in the past half a month, because of the need to establish a centralized vegetable planting base, Lai Xiaohu thought of Xinzhen. Then he came in a hurry, and he didn't even make a plan, but Lai Xiaohu just had some ideas in his head.

Lai Xiaohu saw that Wu Ou said himself so well, and nodded beside him with a slightly red face. At the same time, he also cast an approving glance at Wu Ou. At least in Wu Ou's words, the image of Lai Xiaohu, who is always looking forward to the betterness of his hometown and is willing to work hard for the future of his hometown, has been simply outlined. This is still more useful for Lai Xiaohu, who has a good face, especially if the people in his hometown can praise him in the future, Lai Xiaohu will be even more excited.

"Oh, it looks like you two have already discussed the investment plan." After listening to Wu Ou's words, Zhao Liang asked, "Let's hear it, if I think it's okay, I'll give you activities on it when the time comes." ”

"Here's the specific investment plan." Wu Ou organized the language and said: "Boss Lai started in agriculture, so this investment is still based on agriculture. The whole project is vegetable planting, and the required area is about 50,000 acres. ”

"How much do you say?" Wu Ou said this, and Zhao Liang immediately interrupted him and asked.

"50,000 acres." Wu Ou replied again, and then looked at Zhao Liang eagerly.

"If I'm not mistaken, the total cultivated area of your Xin Town is about 60,000 mu. This time, 50,000 acres were directly used. What do you Xinzhen's leadership team think about such a big thing? Zhao Liang asked Wu Ou.

"We passed unanimously when we had a meeting." Wu Ou's words show the ardent expectations of Xinzhen's leadership for this investment plan.

"Okay. Now that you've passed it unanimously, let's move on. After thinking about it, Zhao Liang said to Wu Ou.

"The entire vegetable base is expected to cover an area of 50,000 acres, and in addition to planting, it is necessary to establish an office area, a warehouse and a transportation center. According to our initial investment plan, the lease term is less than 20 years. The rent is 1,000 yuan per mu per year. The lease contract is changed every five years. ”

After Wu Ou finished talking about these details, he waited for Zhao Liang's reply. And Zhao Liang covered his brows with his hands as if thinking about something, "50,000 mu, 1,000 yuan per mu per year, so it's 50 million a year." Twenty years is a billion. You Xinzhen haven't had any decent investment in the past few years, but I didn't expect such a big project to come as soon as I came. ”

According to Lai Xiaohu's investment plan. When the time comes, after the contract is signed, the rent alone will be one billion. And there are other relocation compensation, and other expenses, plus the number of jobs added in the future, and the taxes paid, it can be said that even if this contract is placed in Xinshi, it is a project that the city government needs to vigorously strive for. And Lai Xiaohu's project has another benefit, that is, it invests in agriculture. Although it was changed from growing grain to vegetables. But the interest in the farmland will not change. This is especially important for Xinshi.

Xinshi or even the entire Henan Province has a convenient place compared with the surrounding provinces when it develops, that is, it is located in the Central Plains. It is a national transportation hub. Henan Province, which plays the role of connecting the east, west, north and south, can undoubtedly get a lot of development convenience. However, there is also a bad point in the development of Henan Province. That's the problem of food that I mentioned earlier.

Henan Province bears the heaviest grain production task in the country, and this weight will become heavier and heavier in the future. This is a hard requirement above, and it is not something that Yu Province can choose. Whether it's food security or land redlines, Henan Province is the focus of supervision. Against this backdrop, Henan Province must give priority to the development of agriculture with limited land to ensure national food security and land red lines. Only in addition to the development of agriculture can a small amount of land be squeezed out for the development of industry. It can be said that in recent years, Henan Province has been entangled in the development of agriculture and industry.

Want to get rich. Industrial development is undoubtedly the fastest way. This has been proven by the coastal provinces. Due to the low rate of return, it has been difficult for agriculture to attract any investment, but with a low rate of return, you have to develop it. Therefore, the entanglement of Yu Province in recent years has also made a large number of officials entangled.

In this context, Lai Xiaohu's agricultural investment is naturally very important to Zhao Liang. Vegetable cultivation has a higher rate of return than ordinary crop cultivation. Moreover, large-scale intensive cultivation can also increase employment and tax revenue. What's more, it doesn't change the use of the land, which couldn't be better news for new city officials who are always eyeing the red line of the land.

So after Wu Ou finished speaking, Zhao Liang just thought about it a little in his mind and found that there was nothing wrong with it, so he said to Lai Xiaohu and Wu Ou directly: "Your project is very good, in principle, I agree with it." However, I can't just agree to such a big project, and whether it can be passed or not will have to be decided after a meeting to study it. ”

"It's all normal procedure, being able to understand, being able to understand." Hearing this, Wu Ou said happily. In his opinion, as long as Zhao Liang supports himself in this matter, the probability of passing should not be small. After all, this time the matter was different from the last time he begged Zhao Liang, and the other leaders of Xinshi had no reason to object.

"Well, I'll take you to meet someone, and as long as you can convince that person to agree, then this matter will be 100% fine." Later, Zhao Liang said to the two.

"And who is this man?" Wu Ou asked. It's not many people who can speak so freely in Xinshi.

"Liu Wei, Mayor Liu." After Zhao Liang finished speaking, he got up and walked outside. And Wu Ou in the back was shocked when he heard this, "Mayor Liu Wei Liu, this is Mayor Zhengyin." In Xinshi, it is definitely a one-of-a-kind existence. Thinking of this, Wu Ou hurriedly quickened his pace.

When he arrived at the door of Liu Wei's office, he saw that Zhao Liang had brought someone here, but Liu Wei's secretary did not stop him, and directly opened the door and let the three of them in.

"Mayor Liu, are you busy?" After entering, seeing that Liu Wei was busy processing documents, Zhao Liang greeted.

"It's Lao Zhao, come on, come on, do it quickly." Looking up and seeing that it was Zhao Liang, Liu Wei quickly stood up and pulled Zhao Liang to sit down next to him. Then he looked at Wu Ou and Lai Xiaohu who were following behind Zhao Liang.

Liu Wei was looking at Lai Xiaohu, and Lai Xiaohu was also looking at him. Seeing Liu Wei, Lai Xiaohu suddenly had a familiar feeling, Liu Wei looked in his thirties and was very young, but Lai Xiaohu didn't remember where he had seen him. (To be continued......)
