Township Chief Zhao's words made Guan Yuntian inexplicable, "The opening ceremony is organized by the township, we don't care, this cost has nothing to do with us!"

"Mr. Guan, the township's finances are tight, and I really can't get this fund. ”

"After talking for a long time, your purpose is to make us pay this money?"

"Isn't there still tens of thousands of yuan left in the budget for road repair? Mr. Guan, do you think you can use some of the remaining funds to hold the opening ceremony?"

"What's the matter, the road construction budget is still surplus?" Guan Yuntian didn't know.

"Don't you know? Maybe they haven't had time to report back to you. ”

"Oh, there's money left, and it looks like the construction management is pretty good. There is a surplus in the budget, and there is no money in the township, and they still want to hold a traffic ceremony, and take money from the surplus funds to hold the ceremony, this matter is logical! I want to say that I disagree, it seems that I am not close to people, Township Chief Zhao, do you say?" Guan Yuntian laughed.

"Mr. Guan, if you really don't want to pay this money, then we have to find another way. It can be seen that Lao Zhao is also a little embarrassed.

Guan Yuntian is not reluctant to pay this money, one hundred or hundreds of thousands have been spent, it is impossible for him to care about the thirty and twenty thousand, "Township Chief Zhao, don't worry, since holding the opening ceremony is beneficial to the township, let's do it, isn't it just spending money? It just so happens that there is a surplus in the budget for road construction, and the money will come out from there." ”

got Guan Yuntian's personal promise, and Township Chief Zhao left satisfied.

During the preparation of the opening ceremony, the township followed Guan Yuntian's opinions many times, as long as he did not involve himself, Guan Yuntian did not express any opinions, so he was too lazy to care about such idle matters.

Guan Yuntian told the township that the leader's speech only emphasized the importance of this road to Jinzhai Township, and tried not to mention his role in the road construction process. In Guan Yuntian's speech, he only congratulated the smooth opening of the road in the name of Changda Group Company, and did not pretend to be the sole donor of the road at all.

At the luncheon after the ceremony, Guan Yuntian originally did not plan to participate, but he repeatedly stayed with the main leaders of the township, and he felt that it was a little unreasonable to leave in terms of face, so he stayed and sat with some leaders from the county.

Jinzhai Township is a remote and barren township, by the opening ceremony, the township specially reported to the county government, similar to the application for poverty alleviation, in order to expand the popularity of Jinzhai Township, the county government instructed the relevant departments to cooperate, therefore, the opening ceremony invited the county in charge of agriculture deputy county magistrate, director of the county government office, director of the transportation bureau, director of the highway bureau, director of agriculture, director of the township enterprise bureau, and so on.

This meal was originally planned to be arranged in a restaurant in Jinzhai Township, Guan Yuntian felt that it was spending money anywhere, but he could save a little in a small restaurant in the township, and the cost of going to a hotel in the county seat was larger.

Since the leaders of the relevant departments have been invited, it may as well be done a little more decently.

Guan Yuntian roughly estimated that arranging lunch in a hotel in the county seat would cost 3,000 yuan more than a small restaurant in the township at most, and the budget for this opening ceremony was close to 40,000 yuan.

Deputy county magistrate Liu, who is in charge of agriculture, took the initiative to ask to sit at a table with Guan Yuntian, in fact, Guan Yuntian is not familiar with the leaders of these functional departments in the county, because Changda Group has never dealt with these functional departments from the beginning to the present, and several of them are heard of for the first time today, of course, it is also the first time to meet.

Secretary Zhang in the township was a little difficult because of the seating arrangement, "County Magistrate Liu, why don't you sit at a table from the county, sit at a table in our township, and arrange another table for others?"

"They're all guests, aren't you deliberately grading them like this? Deputy county magistrate Liu said.

"What do you mean, or to disrupt mixed sitting?"

"I don't think it's appropriate to separate. No, I'll accompany a table, you and Township Chief Zhao will each accompany a table, and we'll hang out with each other halfway. Let Mr. Guan be with me. Deputy County Magistrate Liu suggested.

Since the leader is named, Guan Yuntian has nothing to say, so let's share a table with Deputy County Magistrate Liu, and he took the initiative to sit down in the position of deputy accompaniment.

Seeing this, Deputy County Magistrate Liu said, "Mr. Guan, I invite you to sit here." ”

"County Magistrate Liu, that is the seat of the guest of honor next to you, I am also the host today, you let me sit opposite you and be a deputy host with you." This is not true at all, because the money for lunch is from Guan Yuntian.

"Let's put this aside for the time being, you can't sit in the seat of the main guest, and others are not qualified to sit here!" said Deputy County Magistrate Liu.

"The directors here are all invited guests from the township, and everyone is qualified to sit there, if it is not arranged according to the official position, I suggest that they be sorted according to their age, and the oldest one will sit in the guest of honor position, and so on. "Guan Yuntian said.

Everyone here, including me, should thank you for your support to the local area and your hometown, because you are a guest to all of us, and in this sense, only you are qualified to sit here. ”

"Mr. Guan, sit down quickly!" the others at the table persuaded in unison.

Guan Yuntian didn't go to the guest of honor, and the others couldn't sit down, looking at such a formation, he had no choice but to say: "The leaders are really polite, okay, it's better to be respectful than to obey." ”

The wine bureau began, and Deputy County Magistrate Liu took the lead in raising a glass, "Today is the opening ceremony of the rural highway in Jinzhai Township, and for the first glass of wine, I propose to respect the only donor of the highway and the chairman of the board of directors of the largest private enterprise in our city, Mr. Guan! Thank him for his selfless support for the construction of his hometown!"

Later, Deputy County Magistrate Liu raised his glass again, "The second glass of wine, let's toast together for the first acquaintance with the boss of the largest private enterprise in Huayuan City!"

At the wine table, among the officials present, Deputy County Magistrate Liu has the largest official position, and it is impossible for him to toast other people with lower official positions, so after the first glass of wine was drunk, everyone broke the routine and entered the free activity link in advance.

Deputy County Magistrate Liu wanted to toast Guan Yuntian alone, and Guan Yuntian immediately raised his glass, "This can't be helped! County Magistrate Liu, let me salute you." Thank you for stopping by!"

"Mr. Guan, it is me who should be thanked, our government. Jinzhai Township is located in the middle of nowhere, is the slowest development of the county's township, in fact, there are very good natural resources, you also know, Jinzhai Township is rich in peanuts and walnuts and other cash crops, the villagers still have the tradition of planting vegetables, but for a long time, because of the remote terrain, inconvenient transportation, difficult to walk, people outside are reluctant to go in, people inside are reluctant to come out, the economy there has not improved much. This time, the road has been repaired and the transportation is convenient, which is beneficial to the development of the whole township. As the county magistrate in charge of agriculture in the county, I thank you from the bottom of my heart!" said County Magistrate Liu.

What the county magistrate Liu said is that Jinzhai Township actually has the internal conditions for development, and the slow development in recent years is indeed related to the geographical location and inconvenient transportation. The original intention of building this road, I didn't think so far, that is, every time I go back to my hometown, I feel that the road is not easy to walk, under the care of the leaders at the two levels in the village, I decided to invest some money to build the road, and it is convenient for everyone to travel. Of course, it would be great if it was good to promote local economic development because the road was good!"

"Mr. Guan, is your company so big, is it all involved in industrial projects?"

"Well, so far, several of the company's products have been industrial projects. ”

"I don't know if I will be interested in agriculture-related projects in the future?" is worthy of being the deputy county magistrate in charge of agriculture, and he does not leave the bank in three sentences.

"Agriculture-related projects? County Magistrate Liu, don't look at me growing up in the countryside, I really don't have any concept of the agriculture-related projects you said, is it a grain processing plant or something?" As he spoke, Guan Yuntian raised his glass to Deputy County Magistrate Liu.

"In the past few years, we have gone out to visit and study a lot, even if we have seen some of the world. I will give you an example, the use of peanuts or soybeans to produce edible oil, this is a relatively advanced agriculture-related project, and the scale of the enterprise can also be made very large. ”

"Oh, yes, yes, this is a good idea, thank you County Magistrate Liu for reminding me that I can consider this direction for future inspection projects. At this point, Guan Yuntian thanked Deputy County Magistrate Liu from the bottom of his heart.

"I am in charge of agriculture, and naturally I think more about the development of rural areas, but I think that enterprises will invest some energy in this area, and the return on investment will not be bad in terms of market or investment. ”

"Very reasonable! County Magistrate Liu, we didn't pay attention to this aspect before, we don't know anything about it, after your reminder, I think this is one of the main directions of the company's future expansion, and I will arrange for relevant departments to conduct market research after I go back. ”

"Mr. Guan, this is just a little suggestion from me, I don't understand business management, and what I said may not be appropriate. "Deputy County Magistrate Liu is self-aware.

"County Magistrate Liu, your suggestion is very meaningful, at least it provides us with a new way of thinking about the problem, if we really want to develop in this area in the future, we may have to consult or ask you for advice, don't refuse when the time comes!"

"Don't dare to ask for advice, as the most powerful local enterprise, if you can find a better way out for the cash crops in Fuyuan County, the social economy of our county will be more coordinated development. ”

"Rest assured, as long as we see it, we will unswervingly implement it. County Magistrate Liu, you are in charge of agriculture in the county, let me mention someone, I don't know if you are familiar with it?"

"Who? ”

"The current director of Fuyuan Flour Mill, Lin Xueming. ”

"I worked with him for two years, and at that time we were both deputy directors of the county agricultural bureau, and soon after I was transferred out of the agricultural bureau, it is said that he was transferred to the flour mill as the director. Why, do you know him?"

"My daughter and I used to be colleagues. "Because I don't know what the relationship between the other party and Lao Lin is, Guan Yuntian can't say too much.

"Oh, I see. Lao Lin has a good reputation in the political circles of Fuyuan County, although it has been more than ten years since he left the political circles, and now mentioning him gives many people a good impression. "At that time, they were both deputy directors of the Agricultural Bureau, and Deputy County Magistrate Liu and Lin Xueming respected each other at that time and had no conflict of interest.

At this time, Secretary Zhang and Township Chief Zhao of the township came over with cups, "County Magistrate Liu, the guests at those two tables invite you over." ”

"Okay, let's swap. Mr. Guan, I'll go over there and have a look. ”

"County Magistrate Liu, please!" Guan Yuntian got up to send him off.

The two township leaders wanted to toast again, and Guan Yuntian suggested: "The wine has been almost drunk, how good it is for everyone to get together and chat with each other!"

"This ......"
