The pursuit of a position in officialdom

"Chief Li, let's wait for me to ask the winery to prepare before we go to see it." Zhang Faqiang was frightened by Li Wujiang's swift and decisive action. He hadn't been to the winery for a long time. If he let Li Wujiang see it at this time, it would give a bad impression.

"We are afraid to see our own enterprises in Liuhe County. Today we are going to see and solve the problems." Li Wujiang said, holding his mobile phone and was about to go out. Zhang Faqiang couldn't stop him, so he had to lead the way.

When Li Wujiang arrived at the winery, he was still shocked by the scale of the winery. Originally, he thought that the winery in Liuhe County was just a small workshop, but he didn't expect that the winery covered an area of ​​200 to 300 acres, with rows of factory buildings. Although they were shabby, they were still pretty good at that time.

"Director Zhang, our county's winery looks good from the outside."

"County Magistrate Li, don't be fooled by the size of the winery. Previously, Liuhe County Winery was well-known in Nandu City and surrounding provinces and cities. The sales of various wines were in short supply. Later, with the development of large-scale wine-making enterprises in the south, the technology and craftsmanship of our county's winery fell behind, so that the wine produced now is only supplied to this county and surrounding counties."

Fan Dahua, the director of Liuhe County Winery, was already waiting at the factory gate. Zhang Faqiang introduced Fan Dahua to Li Wujiang. Fan Dahua was in his fifties or sixties and had a head full of white hair.

"Hello, County Magistrate Li, welcome to Liuhe Winery to guide the work." Fan Dahua spoke a little hummingly.

"Director Fan, our winery looks quite large from the outside."

"County Magistrate Li, our county's winery was well-known far and wide before, and its quality was well-known. There was an endless stream of vehicles transporting wine, and the factory had four or five hundred people at its peak." Fan Dahua couldn't hide his happiness when talking about the past of the winery, "Who knew that business would be bad now, and it has plummeted. Our factory now has less than a hundred workers, and the amount of wine produced each year is less than one-third of the past."

Fan Dahua led Li Wujiang to walk and look, and when they came to the brewing workshop, Li Wujiang noticed a middle-aged man in his thirties wearing glasses, who was always instructing the workers to make wine.

"Director Fan, who is that young man?"

"You mean Xie Kun, he is our technical foreman. This kid also went to a technical secondary school. He should have gone to teach, but he insisted on returning to our winery. His family used to make wine, and the winemaking skills were passed down from generation to generation." Fan Dahua called Xie Kun over and introduced Li Wujiang to him.

This guy looked a little dull, but he became energetic when he talked about making wine.

"Mr. Xie, I heard that your family used to make wine."

"Yes, County Magistrate Li, my family has been making wine for generations, and it has been passed down to my generation for a thousand years. The winery in our county was also developed on the basis of our original winery, but it is now in decline."

"What is unique about the winemaking in Liuhe County, or what historical culture it has?"

"Our county has been making wine for a thousand years, and the wine culture is particularly prominent. Our county is the hometown of the winemaking master Xie Qianbei, who is very famous in our country. Liuhe County also built a ancestral hall for Xie Qianbei. Now in our winery, there are inscriptions about drinking inscribed by ancient literati and scholars."

Li Wujiang has also heard of Xie Qianbei, and heard that this ancient man could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. "Oh, from what you said, your family should be the descendants of Master Xie."

"County Magistrate Li, you are right." When talking about Master Xie, Xie Kun seemed very respectful.

"Mr. Xie, how do you think Liuhe County Winery should develop in the future?"

"County Magistrate Li, this is a question that Director Fan and others should consider."

"Liuhe County Winery is related to the future of each of you employees. Everyone can speak freely as long as it is beneficial to the development of the winery."

"The key to winemaking is the fermentation process. Although the technology of modern wineries has greatly improved the fermentation technology, it lacks traditional skills, so the taste of the brewed wine is lacking. Liuhe County Winery still maintains the ancient brewing method. Although the sales volume is not large now, the taste is still well-known. The main problem of our winery now is that the equipment is backward and the brewing cost is too high, so that the winery has been losing money for years. As long as we increase technological transformation, introduce advanced equipment, and add our traditional brewing technology, the winery will be able to regain its life."

Xie Kun's words made Li Wujiang ecstatic. Perhaps this is the breakthrough for his development of Liuhe County's economy. Now the main thing is how to make good use of this breakthrough.

Xie Kun's name reminded Li Wujiang of Xie Fei. Both of them have the surname Xie. Is there any relationship? Li Wujiang asked casually, "Xie Fei, do you know her?"

Li Wujiang suddenly asked about Xie Fei, which made Xie Kun stunned for a moment and said, "She is my cousin."

Li Wujiang nodded. Then the group walked to the stele forest. Li Wujiang saw that there were about a hundred stone tablets, the earliest of which could be traced back to the Han Dynasty, which made Li Wujiang overjoyed. These are cultural relics and treasures. Li Wujiang told Fan Dahua to keep these stone tablets well, which are witnesses of history.

"Director Fan, your winery should formulate a development plan and report it to the county party committee and county government as soon as possible. At that time, we will study the next development plan of the winery."

Chapter 145 Hanging up the municipal bureau, secretly investigating the backstage of Liuhe

Li Na and his group stayed in Liuhe County for four days, including two days in Liziping Township.

"Brother Jiang, the people in Liziping Township are too poor."

"Yes, Liuhe County has been delayed for too long and is in urgent need of development. Did you gain anything from this visit?"

"Professor Mao Chenglin found that the local area in Liziping Township is suitable for growing edible fungi, that is, shiitake mushrooms. The local people can get rich through the edible fungi industry."

"Okay, this is a good project. You need to coordinate with Professor Mao and others to continue to help Liziping and other towns to establish edible fungi industrial bases. As for the initial funding issue, you can also adopt the company plus grower model."

"No problem, Brother Jiang, but the roads in Liuhe County are too bad and the transportation is too inconvenient."

"Don't worry about this problem. We are now striving for the Liunan Highway. In addition, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future, you should not participate in Liuhe County projects in the future. You can arrange for a trustworthy person to register an agricultural company and let him run projects other than Changting in the future."

"Brother Jiang, is it necessary to go through so much trouble?"

"Just in case, you know that I am here, and the environment in Liuhe County is very complicated. If you are not careful, others will catch the handle."

"Okay then. You are really worried and hard-working." Li Na said, and her hands touched Li Wujiang's chest. Li Wujiang was not to be outdone and climbed to the top.

After Li Na left. Li Wujiang and Song Xiyang made a phone call. This guy is now running between Bianzhou and Jiangzhou, which can be regarded as a relief for his old father.

"Brother Li, why do you think of your little brother?"

"Xiyang, where are you free and easy?"

"Brother Li, I am now a serious entrepreneur, busy with the affairs of Huayuan Zhongke Electronics Company all day long."

"Okay, when you return to Jiangzhou, help me find out something and look at the equipment and technology of some large brewing companies."

Song Xiyang was very happy to get the task assigned by Li Wujiang, which showed that Li Wujiang trusted him.

"Okay, Brother Li, I promise to complete the task you assigned. Brother Li, is there any good project? I will also participate in the investment."

"Okay, you run Huayuan Electronics Factory first, and I will introduce other projects to you."

Du Youfa reported to the Nandu Public Security Bureau and served as the political commissar of the Nandu Criminal Police Detachment, which can be regarded as a step towards the deputy division-level cadre. Li Wujiang drove to Nandu with Zhou Zhengyi to welcome Du Youfa.

"Zhengyi, how is the public security work in Liuhe County going recently?"

Zhou Zhengyi has now completely sided with Li Wujiang, "County Magistrate Li, we have conducted a serious investigation into the gangsters who fought with Xiaowei last time. They were a gang led by Zhang Xiaoshuan, who collected protection fees from merchants in Liuhe County and beat and illegally detained those who did not pay the protection fees. We have already obtained certain clues. But in order to find out the mastermind behind the scenes, we did not alert the enemy."

"Zhengyi, you did a good job. You should first organize trustworthy people to investigate the external situation clearly, and when appropriate, arrange personnel to go deep into the criminal group to investigate the situation. If the personnel are not I can coordinate with the city bureau to assist you. What difficulties do you have in your work now? "

"County Magistrate Li, after our investigation for some time, we found that there are large-scale underground casinos in Liuhe County, not only businessmen, but also government staff. Since the public security personnel in Liuhe County are familiar faces in the local area, it is difficult to investigate. "

"Oh, there are also government staff? Who are they?"

"Our investigators found that Deputy County Magistrate Lu Zhengning and Deputy Director Qiao Wanchang had been to the gambling scene. "

Li Wujiang found this interesting. A deputy county magistrate and a deputy director of the public security bureau might have a big breakthrough through illegal crackdowns. "Zhengyi, you must master the appropriate methods and must not alert the enemy. If it really doesn't work, I will coordinate with Director Wang Jingchun of the Municipal Bureau to use police from other places."

"This is a good idea, County Magistrate Li."

"Zhengyi, there are two things you need to investigate. One is whether there has been a safety accident in Longyuan Mine recently, and the other is to arrange for someone to find County Magistrate Tong's lover and understand the circumstances of County Magistrate Tong's death. Both of these things must be kept confidential, and you must choose someone you trust to do it."

"Okay, County Magistrate Li, don't worry."

In the evening, at Qingyaju Hotel in Nandu City, Li Wujiang held a welcome ceremony for Du Youfa. Wang Jingchun, Zhang Zhiqiang and others participated in the dinner.

"Youfa, you must do your job well under the leadership of Director Wang in the future."

"Wujiang, don't worry. Director Wang is a hero in the police force of Nandu City. He handled many major cases in the early years. I came here to learn from Director Wang this time."

"Youfa, if you come to Nandu City in the future, tell me if you have any difficulties. Our bureau can solve the problems. If our bureau can't solve them, I will solve them for you personally." Wang Jingchun didn't dare to treat Du Youfa as an ordinary police officer now. He needed to rely on the one in this guy's family.

"Thank you Uncle Wang for taking care of me. Let me toast you a glass." Du Youfa was very good at handling things. Wang Jingchun smiled when he was called Uncle Wang.

"Director Wang, look at how many young new forces there are in your police force. You will be even more powerful in the future." Li Wujiang said with a smile.

"Yes, I am also very happy to see these young people grow up. The overall security and stability of Nandu City in the future depends on you. Come, let's have a drink together." Wang Jingchun suggested that everyone drink together.

"Youfa, I'm glad you came to Nandu. We can fight side by side in the future." After dinner, Li Wujiang took Du Youfa to the hotel.

"Wujiang, we are brothers. If you have anything to say, just tell me."

Li Wujiang briefly told Du Youfa about the public security situation in Liuhe County. "Youfa, you just came. I didn't want to tell you so early, but today I'm happy and I'll talk to you about my brother's difficulties."

Du Youfa realized that Li Wujiang was not as glorious as everyone saw. As a department-level cadre, the environment he faced was so complicated. Would he be able to do it if he changed? Du Youfa shook his head. "Wujiang, don't worry, I will familiarize myself with the work of the Nandu Public Security Bureau as soon as possible. If you need anything, just tell me. If it doesn't work, I can also ask our old man for help. Eliminating evil for the people and keeping the area safe is also the old man's teaching."

"Okay, I feel relieved with your words. I hope that the two of us brothers can open up a new situation in Nandu."

Chapter 146 No matter how big the leader is, he also wants a bigger official

Li Wujiang received a call from Chang Dong, director of the Nandu Transportation Bureau. Chang Dong said that the Liunan Highway Project was approved by the city after he argued for it. Li Wujiang expressed his gratitude and invited him to have dinner together in the evening. This time Chang Dong did not refuse.

Li Wujiang quickly called Deng Dahai and Mei Zhilin to come to Nandu City, and reported to Lu Zhenjun that the Liunan Highway had been approved. Lu Zhenjun congratulated him, encouraged Li Wujiang's efforts, and supported Li Wujiang in carrying out the next step of work.

There was nothing to do during the day, so Li Wujiang made an appointment with Xie Fei.

"Xie Fei, do you have a cousin named Xie Kun?"

"County Magistrate Li, how do you know this? My cousin is also a freak. He studied teaching at school and was assigned to teach after graduation. Who knew that this guy didn't go to teach, but returned to the winery to make wine instead."

"Has your family been making wine for generations?"

"Indeed, this is the case. Our Xie family's ancestor was a winemaker. He was very famous before. There was a winery during the Republic of China. My cousin has learned the entire winemaking process in more than ten years, and he can be regarded as a master of his generation. Unfortunately, the winery is now in decline, and his skills have no place to use."

"Who said there is no place to use. It will play a big role in the future."

Xie Fei heard Li Wujiang say this and immediately understood that he was going to develop a winery. "County Magistrate Li, it seems that you are planning to make a fuss about wine. This is a good breakthrough for the economy of Liuhe County. However, the size of the wine enterprise is very small and cannot drive the development of the entire economy of Liuhe County."

Li Wujiang laughed loudly. Who would have known that the liquor industry would be a highly profitable industry in a few years. "Xie Fei, don't just look at the present. Our people have a great demand for liquor, and the key is to see how to do well in this market. I need you to do me a favor now. Xie Kun is indeed talented in brewing, and I hope you can help persuade him to help me revive the glory of Liuhe County Winery."

"County Magistrate Li, this is no problem. My cousin is so obsessed with wine, he certainly doesn't want the winery to go bankrupt, I believe he will agree."

In the evening, Li Wujiang took Xie Fei directly to the dinner. Chang Dong took Zhou Dahai, the section chief of the project section of the Transportation Bureau, and Zhang Changsheng to sit in the main seat. Li Wujiang introduced Xie Fei to everyone.

"Director Chang, thank you very much for your support to our Liuhe County. Let me toast you."

"County Magistrate Li, you are too polite. This is also our job. Our Transportation Bureau also hopes that Liuhe County can develop as soon as possible."

"No matter what, I still want to thank Director Chang and Section Chief Zhou. County Magistrate Deng and Director Mei, you should also toast the two leaders."

"Wujiang, don't be too happy too early. The project has been approved by the city, but the funding issue is a hard issue. Without funding, all this effort is in vain." Zhang Changsheng reminded in advance.

"Mayor Zhang, thank you for your reminder. Now that the Long March has taken the first step, we will move forward bravely."
