Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

Chapter 389 Mayor Zhu

With such results, the school is not stingy with a 50-cent certificate. It is enough to give the children a certificate of excellence for three good students. This is enough for the children to have a safe and peaceful winter vacation.

Li Qian begged Li Weidong to post the certificates on the wall. There were already several certificates on the wall, but most of them were issued by kindergartens for super good babies, or various honorary certificates issued by some interest classes. Naturally, they were not as valuable as this.

.

"Where to stick it?" Li Weidong looked at his son's certificate and was quite satisfied. Although this thing is of little use, and sticking it on the wall will destroy the high-end layout of the entire room, it is a good incentive for the child's growth.

Li Weidong still remembers the first certificate he received when he was a child. He was already in the second grade of elementary school at that time. He was so happy that he wanted to go around the village to spread the word.

"Put it on the certificate for practicing swordsmanship!" Li Qian thought for a moment and said, this is the middle one, and if you put this three-good student on it, it will be the highest one.

"Okay, bring me some tape, study hard from now on, and try to cover all this wall for me!" Li Weidong readily agreed and encouraged.

In his previous life, he had envied those families whose walls were covered with commendations, which could be seen by guests when they came. As long as the directors were knowledgeable, they would naturally give a few compliments to make the host happy.

"Okay!" Li Qian nodded seriously, and then happily ran to get the tape, but he didn't know how much effort it took to achieve this.

After posting the certificate, Li Weidong wanted to fulfill his promise and took his two children out to eat burgers. He had to give him some appropriate incentives. After eating, he had to attend Old Man Wei's farewell party.

According to the rules of Qizhou, the three-day burial custom should be today. Although it does not count as two days, the death certificate given by the medical examiner is from the night of the previous day, so it must be counted as one day.

Li Weidong watched Fang Yuanming place the urn of Wei Lao in a cemetery in the eastern suburbs, and then slowly buried it, feeling somewhat touched in his heart.

No matter how awesome this person was in life, after death he is just a black box and has to be buried in the soil. This is called peace in the earth. I don’t know whether he is safe or not, but it must be dark.

Although Li Weidong's place is very low-key, it is not clean since the twelfth lunar month. There is an endless stream of people visiting. Li Weidong just came back from the cemetery and saw a car parked at the street corner. There was a lesbian talking to the security guard next to him.

.

When the security guard saw Li Weidong's car approaching, he quickly lowered the ground stakes to allow Li Weidong's car to pass easily.

At this time, a person got out of the car parked at the street intersection, a woman to be precise. Li Weidong happened to look out the car window and recognized this person, Zhu Liping, the county magistrate of their county.

"Stop!" Ding Yuan also recognized the county magistrate who occasionally came to his home. As soon as Li Weidong said this, the car stopped.

"County Magistrate Zhu, why didn't you tell me in advance that you were here?" Li Weidong opened the door and said politely.

From an ordinary deputy county magistrate to an executive deputy county magistrate, I have been serving as county magistrate for three or four years now, which is considered a senior level. Maybe one day I will be able to cross this or that threshold.

"I just visited an old leader who was nearby, so I stopped by. I didn't know why I shouldn't visit you when I got to the door. I didn't know if you were at home, so I just wanted to try my luck. I didn't expect that I actually met him!"

Zhu Liping saw that the communication between the secretary and the security guard was fruitless, so she came down. Unexpectedly, she happened to spray Li Weidong when he came back.

She doesn't come to the province much in the year, but when she does come, most of the time she comes to Li Weidong's house to keep in touch. She's not a stranger, and many security guards know her.

But this security guard is new to the job. He has never met Zhu Liping or knows Zhu Liping. Even if he knows Zhu Liping, he cannot put the car in without permission.

"Warm welcome, hurry in and sit down. Xiao Wang is the parent officer of my hometown. I will let you go directly from now on!" Li Weidong greeted warmly and said to the security guard next to him.

"Chairman, I remember it!" the security guard said seriously, but even though he said so, when Zhu Liping comes later, he still has to ask for instructions, otherwise he will never let her in.

One thing, doing it is another thing.

This was requested by their captain. His task is to guard the door. As for who to let in, it is not his decision. Moreover, they must be able to block the boss from those who do not want to see him. They cannot let the boss be this evil person.

Especially in the past two years, several sensational kidnappings of wealthy people occurred on Hong Kong Island, which led to Li Weidong's security measures being strengthened a lot, and not everyone can come here.

Zhu Liping's secretary is 27 or 28 years old and looks ordinary. Of course, a secretary should be like this. When Li Weidong called Zhu Liping County Magistrate Zhu, he wanted to say something.

But thinking about this occasion, she was not the secretary who could interrupt, so she shut up obediently, took Zhu Liping into the car, and then followed Li Weidong's car in.

She was very curious about Li Weidong, a Chinese rich man. A few months ago, a foreigner named Hurun published a list of China's richest people in a foreign newspaper. Although there were only the top fifty, the amount of wealth was also vague, and even the source of the data was unknown.

Discuss.

Li Weidong is ranked second. Like the previous ones, his wealth is more than one billion, but how much is not mentioned in the list. It is not even known how this ranking came about, and it is estimated that there are many invisible rich people who are not.

Showing up.

When this list was reported by foreign newspapers, and then reprinted by domestic newspapers, it aroused heated discussions. Chinese people are already more interested in these ranking lists, and they are also lists that compare who is richest. At this time

It is still a new thing, so it naturally attracts more attention.

The secretary was not familiar with Li Weidong. At most, he only knew through rumors that a rich man came out of Qiushan County, but no one knew how much money he had.

Now as soon as this list comes out, everyone knows that the net worth is at least one billion or more, and it seems to be more than that. There are nearly 20 people with more than one billion, and Li Weidong ranks second. Naturally, it is not simply more than one billion, but

A lot of the above.

Although Li Weidong is not from the city, the city still reports the list with the most enthusiasm, so everyone in the city who is not lonely knows that they have such a fellow countryman.

The most lively event was in Li Weidong's hometown. Relatives who had traveled three thousand miles away came to visit them. Li Chengwen and Shen Yueying couldn't resist it, so they had to temporarily stay in their younger son's house in the county town to avoid these distant relatives.

The secretary had not been with Zhu Liping for a long time, but she had Zhu Liping's trust, otherwise she would not have brought her to Li Weidong's place, but she never mentioned anything about Li Weidong.

So the secretary naturally didn't know about the relationship between her boss and Li Weidong. If Zhu Liping hadn't asked her to come down and greet the security guard just now, she wouldn't have known that this was Li Weidong's home.

And judging from the way they greeted each other just now, it seems that the leader and Li Weidong are quite familiar with each other.

Seeing that the houses along the street are in excellent repair, antique, and located in a prosperous place, but there is no one on the street, this makes people feel a little weird.

Thinking of the attitude of the security guard at the door and what he said to Li Weidong, I was suddenly shocked. Isn't it possible that all the houses in this street belong to Li Weidong's family?

This is a smart woman!

Thinking about this, I suddenly felt that the car had stopped. Without thinking much, I quickly got out of the car to open the door for the leader, but the leader, who usually got out of the car slowly, had already opened the door and stepped out of the car, which was not slower than her.

"Lao Yang, take out the things from the trunk!" Zhu Liping said to the driver.

Li Weidong looked at the driver and felt unfamiliar. It should be a new one, but the original driver should not have reached the retirement age. How could he be replaced? Leaders generally do not change drivers easily. There are too many tricks here. Li Weidong can't figure it out.

.

"County Magistrate Zhu, why did you bring something with you again? Didn't you say that you can come empty-handed from now on?" Li Weidong said politely as he watched the driver and secretary take things from the car.

"This is for my sister. These are for the two children. It's not your responsibility. My sister is at home, right?" Zhu Liping said, pointing to a few toys and some nutritional supplements.

"It's the end of the year. Her company is too busy. She can't wait to work overtime every day. We, the masters, don't want any more!" Li Weidong didn't talk about gifts anymore. Others brought them. Naturally, he was sincere. He gave some similar things in return.

That’s it.

Ding Yuan wanted to go over and help, but the secretary insisted on carrying it himself. The driver was in his forties and understood things. He knew that the leader needed to buy gifts for people to visit. The threshold was too high. They were not willing to go in by themselves, so he handed him over naturally.

To Ding Yuan.

The secretary walked into Li Weidong's house with curiosity. The door was a small door opened by Li Weidong to facilitate the courtyard behind. As soon as he entered, he knew that these large courtyards were connected.

Li Weidong led the two of them into the yard at the back. The secretary was shocked and agreed with his thoughts just now. He felt that he had gained something by coming in shamelessly.

But knowing that this was not a place where she could stay longer, she put her things in the living room and whispered to Zhu Liping, "Mayor Zhu, I'll wait for you in the car."

Although the voice was small, Li Weidong could clearly hear the words from just a few people, "Mayor, you have been promoted. Why haven't I heard you mention it? Congratulations?"

"Hey, I have taken advantage of my gender. Some time ago, there was a change of office, and there was a vacancy for lesbians, so I was put in charge of minor tasks such as science, education, culture, and health. Actually, to be honest, I still want to work in Qiushan.

Keep working!"

Zhu Liping said with a smile. As for the truth, she didn't know whether it was true or false. However, this kind of promotion naturally has its bitterness and sweetness. If she goes by the steps, she will probably have to work as a top leader for several years before she reaches this level.

hope.

Now, by chance, I have jumped directly to the next level, but I am in charge of these Qingshui Yamen, places where it is not easy to achieve results, and once I am labeled as a vase, I will have fewer opportunities to be a leader in the future.

So if she doesn't make some achievements, I'm afraid it will be really difficult in the future. She is only in her forties this year, so she is definitely young at this level, so naturally she doesn't want to waste time.

That’s why I came to report to the leader to report my work, keep in touch with the leader, and also come to Li Weidong’s place to visit and connect with each other. Although I don’t care about these, many friends always have different paths. The key is that this friend may still be the richest man in China.

Zhu Liping has maintained a good relationship with Li Weidong's family for six or seven years, so she naturally knows Li Weidong better than others, at least better than Hurun, and knows how many properties Li Weidong has under his name.

Qiushan Cement has brought enough wealth to Li Weidong. Even now, Zhu Liping feels that the most right thing she did was to take the express train of Qiushan Cement.

When Qiu Shan Cement wanted to expand production, it needed investment. The county had no money, so Li Weidong wanted to go it alone and set up a holding company to invest in construction.

At that time, Zhu Liping opposed all opinions and stated that she could not give up this big tree. If she had no money, she would not increase capital and dilute the shares. She didn't have much say in the first place, so she didn't want to lose face. As long as she had the inside, she would definitely have to do it if she had such a big head.

Hug.

Although many people made sarcastic remarks overtly or covertly at the beginning, and some leaders even called her, fortunately, the matter was settled and it was not easy to go back on her words.

A few years ago, Qiushan Cement was listed on Hong Kong Island, and Zhu Liping suddenly became the hero. The first listed company in the city was listed on Hong Kong Island, which sounded very grand.

And last year, Qiushan Cement was listed on the Shanghai stock market again, and the A+H listing was even more fashionable. Although after several rounds of financing, the county's shares have been diluted greatly, and so far they only have less than four points.

shares.

However, the value of these shares has greatly increased, and the growth of Qiushan Cement has also made Qiushan famous, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

After several years of development, Qiushan Cement has gradually increased in scale. Cement plants are located in various cities across the province, and more than 30 cement plants have been put into operation nationwide.

Last year's output value exceeded 2 billion, and net profit exceeded 300 million. Moreover, the production capacity is still expanding. It is estimated that it will definitely develop rapidly in the next few years.

Therefore, Zhu Liping felt very wise about her original decision. Although she did not know how to do business, she could make money by working with people who knew how to do business.

Although 4% of the shares is not much, in total, they already own a cement factory, instead of only owning 15% of the shares of a cement factory.

"You have reached a high-level position, not to mention being in charge of science, education, culture and health. You just don't care about anything. I want to do it too, but it's a pity that we don't have the brains to do this job!" Li Weidong was really a little envious.

It's not so easy to get over to high-ranking positions. The difference at this step is huge. Even when you die, the treatment is different, let alone when you are alive.

"You don't like me. Just based on your ability. If you wanted to do this, you would have reached this position long ago!" Zhu Liping said sincerely.

There are many cadres at this level in China, but there are not many people with so much money. Which one is rare? You don't have to think about it to know.

The two complimented each other for a while. There was nothing to talk about, and Zhu Liping had an appointment with someone in the evening. She was not waiting at home for Liu Jinhui to get off work. Anyway, Li Weidong was about to return to his hometown for the New Year and had plenty of time.

"You are always in a hurry. You said you have only eaten at my place a few times!"

"We have been in a relationship for many years, and we haven't even had a meal together. Goodbye, Li Qian, and Li Rui. Let alone these two children, I have inherited the advantages of both of you. You are smart, lively and cute. Look.

It seems that there are more certificates on this wall!!" Zhu Liping praised and said goodbye to the two children.

"Hey, just two silly kids, say goodbye to Aunt Zhu!" Li Weidong said modestly with a smile. This scratched Li Weidong's itch. Who doesn't want their children to be praised?

Li Qian and Li Rui said at the same time, "Goodbye Aunt Zhu!"
