The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

Seeing that several people were silent, Yang Dongxu also felt bored. So he turned around and said to Sun Changfeng: "Why don't you go up and count some money. If there is no problem, let's sign the car purchase contract. It's getting late and we have to go back."

"No, no need to order." Sun Changfeng said with a wave of his hand. Even if the friendship between the two of them is not enough to save money, just look at the background behind this young man and his performance just now. The kind of people who play tricks on car purchases.

"You really don't need to look at it, I don't know if you have fake money and come back to me?" Yang Dongxu said half-jokingly.

"How is it possible?" Sun Changfeng also smiled, and his tense expression relaxed.

"Let's sign the contract for that line, and you can get rid of the license plate and other things by the way. See if you can make it back at noon."

"Why are you leaving at noon? Why do you dislike the bad food at my brother's house?" Sun Changfeng said after relaxing.

"It's not that the food at my brother's house is not good, it's because there's something wrong. Besides, I didn't say hello at home. I'm afraid that my family will worry if I go back late. I will come to see Big Brother Sun for a drink when I have a chance." Yang Dongxu laughed.

Then, as if the incident of beating Zhang Chenglong just now hadn't happened, Yang Dongxu signed the contract and sat in the auto shop with Zhao Desheng and the others and chatted casually for a while.

After the license plate and registration procedures were completed, he frowned: "Is it really okay for you to drive back like this?"

Obviously he was a little worried about his uncle who drove a big truck. When he first came here, he thought, let Dad Yang drive the pickup truck back later, the small car is not a big problem, and he drives the big truck with his uncle, and he can stop any problems in time.

But now, although a few people didn't talk about Zhang Chenglong's affairs, he couldn't just pat his ass and leave. After all, it is impossible to make two phone calls when asking someone to do something, and then go home and wait for news. There should be some etiquette. So now he obviously can't drive home with his uncle.

"It's okay, I looked at him. This thing is bigger than the three-wheeled and four-wheeled ones at home. It's not a big deal if it beats around the bush a little slower." The little grandpa said.

"That's fine." Yang Dongxu nodded. Obviously, my uncle can't drive with him all day, and he has to get acquainted with him. So although he was a little worried, he didn't say anything more.

Sending my uncle and dad to the car, seeing dad's worried expression, Yang Dongxu comforted: "It's okay, with Director Zhao here, I'm sure I can't suffer. Besides, I called Uncle Chen just now and there won't be any trouble." things."

"Alright then." Father Yang nodded.

Obviously he knew who Yang Dongxu was referring to as Uncle Chen. Although he doesn't like walking around to make connections, he still went to Chen Weimin's place a few times during Chinese New Years and festivals before, until the other party transferred him away.

Father Yang also heard that Chen Weimin is now a high-ranking official, and his position is extremely high. As the saying goes, there are people in the court who are easy to handle. And they still have a reason for this matter, so the son stays and takes care of the matter and walks around, and nothing will happen. Only then did I feel relieved to get in the car and start the ignition, and drove the newly bought pickup truck home.

"This time I really trouble you two, and thank you, Director Zheng, for coming." After seeing off his father and uncle, Yang Dongxu turned around and shook hands with Sun Changfeng and the others: "Find a time, I invite Let's have a meal."

"How can I ask you to come to Chengwang City? You tell me a time, and I will be the host." Sun Changfeng said, if he was a little hesitant before, now he really wants to make friends with this extraordinary young man. young.

"I'm also from Chengwang City, you can't treat me as an outsider." Yang Dongxu smiled: "Well, I have something to do tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, I'll be the host the night after tomorrow, let's have some wine."

"Then I'll just wait for your drink." Sun Changfeng didn't insist.

Yang Dongxu nodded with a smile, and then said to Zhao Desheng next to him, "I'll trouble Director Zhao later."

"It should be, it should be." Zhao Desheng waited here and didn't leave, just wanting to make Yang Dongxu trouble himself. At this time, it will naturally end immediately.

After waving goodbye to Sun Changfeng and the others, Yang Dongxu got into Zhao Desheng's car. In a while, he was going to see Zhao Feng, who was Chen Weimin's secretary before, and his grandpa called back Zhao Desheng's immediate boss, the newly appointed mayor of Chengwang City. At first, he planned to go to see Zhao Feng alone, but after thinking about it, he brought Zhao Desheng along.

Judging from the scene where the gangsters in the society dared to come, it was obvious that he had to catch up with the strength of the police station. Otherwise, even if this matter passes, there will be hidden dangers.

"Mr. Yang Yang, where are we going?" After getting into the car, Zhao Desheng asked the driver to get out of the car and drove by himself. Yang Dongxu, who originally wanted to sit in the back, directly opened the door and sat on the co-pilot. Zhao Desheng hesitated for a while, but in the end Xuzi still didn't call out, and called Mr. Yang.

"Call Xu Zi, or Dong Xu, or Xiao Xu. Calling Mr. Yang will be a birthright."

"Then let me call you Xiao Xu."

"Alright, let's go to the municipal party committee compound. By the way, I will stop at a shop on the side of the road in a while, and I will buy something."

Zhao Desheng's eyes lit up when he heard that he was going to the Municipal Party Committee compound. Obviously, going to the Municipal Party Committee compound at this time was not to compensate Mayor Zhang, but to see Mayor Zhao, "Okay."

Zhao Desheng didn't know what to talk to Yang Dongxu for a while.

Yang Dongxu touched his pocket and handed Zhao Desheng a cigarette to light it for him. He also smoked one. In fact, he doesn't smoke. He has cigarettes in his pocket because he has a lot of acquaintances when he returns to the village. Handing cigarettes is a basic etiquette in rural areas. But there were only two people in the car, and he couldn't let Zhao Desheng smoke alone, otherwise Zhao Desheng would definitely feel uncomfortable smoking.

"Didn't it mean that the Beijing-Kowloon Line will open to traffic next year? Why does our city look a little lifeless?" Yang Dongxu found a topic.

"Who says it's not? The current economy is still the same as it was before."

"Have you ever thought about attracting investment in the city?" To be honest, Chengwang City, which obviously has the convenience of truck transportation, why it is still a third-tier city after so long, he is a little confused.

"Why is there no investment promotion? Director Zhou of the Investment Promotion Office is so anxious because of this matter that his hair is gray. But those who give policies give policies, and those who give land give land. They just don't want to come. What can we do? After so many years of hard work, we can't do anything. , which means that the chemical fertilizer factory and the agricultural machinery factory can get a good business, and the others are not enough.”

"There are no big factories, so it would be nice to introduce some small factories." Yang Dongxu said.

"We talked a few times about toy factories and shoe factories, but they failed." Zhao Desheng said in a neutral tone.

After glancing at Zhao Desheng's expression, Yang Dongxu understood a little. Apparently, the airs of the leaders of Chengwang City have not let go of the airs that were praised by the province for its economic development in 1985.

Now relying on the Beijing-Kowloon Line, it is even more ambitious. It wants to introduce big projects, and it doesn't care about these small factories. Otherwise, it is impossible for the introduction of several small factories to fail.

Seeing a fruit stand on the road, Yang Dongxu went down and bought two bags of fruit, and a case of the well-known welcome wine from Anhui Province. Seeing him getting into the car with such a simple gift, Zhao Desheng not only said nothing, but felt that the relationship between Yang Dongxu and the mayor seemed to be better than imagined.

Otherwise, if you come to ask someone to do something, let's not say how much or how much to give, the mayor may not accept it if you give it away. But this gift has to be upscale, it’s up to others whether they accept it or not, you can’t save money on gifts, this is going to the mayor’s house.

But this is only for ordinary people, the relationship between Yang Dongxu and the mayor is obviously not ordinary. Therefore, it is best to have a practical gift, but it is not good if it is too expensive.

Zhao Feng greeted the guards in the municipal committee compound in advance, so the car drove directly to Zhao Feng's house without any hindrance. Seeing that Zhao Feng went out to meet him in person when he heard the sound of the car, Yang Dongxu got out of the car and stretched out his hands with a smile on his face.

"Uncle Zhao, you are being too polite, which makes me afraid to come to the door next time."

"It's as if you've been through the door several times." Zhao Feng said with a smile. Originally, I was still a little confused about how to call Yang Dongxu. After all, this is the junior of my old leader, the grandson of that respected old man. But now he is a herdsman.

And Yang Dongxu said Uncle Zhao, which not only resolved his embarrassment that he didn't know what to call him. He even yelled at him with a smile on his face, and sighed in his heart that it was indeed the old man who educated him since he was a child. This tutor is really nothing to say.

"Hello, Mayor Zhao." Yang Dongxu hurriedly got out of the car, and Zhao Desheng had no choice but to take out the gifts Yang Dongxu bought.

"Come here right now, what else do you bring?" Zhao Feng glanced at the things Zhao Desheng was carrying in his hand, and Zhao Feng knew who bought them, and gave Yang Dongxu a reproachful look.

"Excuse me, Director Zhao." Turning back, he thanked Zhao Desheng who helped carry the things and said, "It should be, it is not customary to go to the countryside empty-handed to kiss relatives, not to mention that I am going to ask someone to do something."

"You, you, you have been a ghost since you were a child. You want to ask the mayor to do something with this little thing. This is a big plan." Zhao Feng said half-jokingly.

Compared with Zhao Feng, who in Yang Dongxu's previous impression that Chen Weimin carried a bag with a bit of literary temperament, these years of tempering have made the 43-year-old Zhao Feng look much more refined, and his words and deeds have the same momentum as his status. But this kind of aura is not aggressive to him, but it has a kind of closeness of the elders to the younger ones. After all, Zhao Feng's age is here.

After several people entered the room, Zhao Desheng sat for a while, then got up and left, and declined the mayor's persuasion. Originally, he just wanted to come to the door to make an appointment, so that the mayor would understand what he meant and take this line. Being able to sit in the house for a while is already a big face, you can't be too greedy, you have to wink and know how to advance and retreat.

Both Zhao Feng and Yang Dongxu got up, but Zhao Feng didn't send them off, and Yang Dongxu sent Zhao Desheng to the door before returning. Zhao Feng, who had already sat down, saw Yang Dongxu coming back and asked, "Very familiar?"

"We met for the first time today, but he has a good relationship with my little grandfather." Yang Dongxu said.

"Oh." Zhao Feng nodded and understood Yang Dongxu's meaning. He obviously wanted him to give Zhao Desheng a chance, otherwise he wouldn't mention his little grandfather.
