i'm not a bad man

Chapter 258 All I need is a good road

I can probably guess Zuo Xiaowei's motive for meeting me, but I'm not sure how she will explain her motive. This uncertainty stems from the current tense relationship between Zuo Xiaowei and me. In an indifferent relationship, maybe she will be very angry or disgusted; in short, she will never communicate with me in a normal state, because she has entered an abnormal state, and she and Guan Yubo It was too easy to get together, and she didn't even give herself a little time to transition and adjust. Unless she really loved Guan Yubo, but if she really loved Guan Yubo, then the love she had shown to me before would seem abnormal again. ; In short, no matter which angle you look at it, it is abnormal.

But I will definitely go and meet her, because I feel guilty in my heart. I have never really loved her, but in the name of life, I compiled a blueprint in her world and made it twice Had sex with her.

She is different from other women. She once had an experience of being sexually assaulted. This experience was destined to make her hate men and women. But when she finally opened her heart again, I gave her this The blow...

This is where I really feel guilty about her.

……

"Xiao Han, what are you thinking about?"

Chang Tianming asked and patted me on the shoulder. I came back to my senses, then looked at him and the two bodyguards he arranged for me, and finally smiled and said: "Uncle Chang, I really don't need this. protection... If the situation is really serious enough to require the deployment of bodyguards, I don't think there is any need for me to stay in the small town. Compared to doing a career, life is the most important thing... I am so young and I have lost an opportunity. , there will be a second chance, but if your life is gone, it is really gone!"

My words made Chang Tianming feel a little conflicted. It seemed that the situation was really tense, but he was afraid that if I showed this tension in front of me, I would really give up my choice and leave. Therefore, after hesitating for a while, Finally he said: "Let's put aside the bodyguard thing for a moment. Let me introduce you to Mr. Wang Juchang, who you are already familiar with. The person sitting next to Mr. Wang Juchang is Master Wu of our county's hair committee. Let’s go to the third floor and have some tea together.”

After Chang Tianming introduced me, I greeted Lao Wu, and then Chang Tianming took Lao Wang, Lao Wu and me to the third floor of the villa.

I didn’t know much about the functions of each department, so when I was going up the stairs, I checked online to find out what kind of department the Development Committee was. I learned that this department is responsible for the investment, funds, and resources of the entire county. To carry out comprehensive and balanced work, develop the county's fixed assets investment plan and major project construction plans, and lead the organization to implement, approve or review large and medium-sized capital construction projects.

This function made me clear on the spot. If Guan Yubo really wants to win the road expansion project, the Development Committee is a hurdle he must pass. Since Chang Tianming has invited the top leaders here, it also means that he will thoroughly begin.

……

Chang Tianming opened the door to the third floor. It was really unique. The third floor was completely a place for receiving guests. The first thing that caught his eye was a constant-temperature wine cabinet. Compared with the wines of Maotai Wuliangye that were just thrown away in the storage room on the first floor. , this constant-temperature wine cabinet contains higher-end wines. Next to the wine cabinet is another display cabinet, which contains some high-end teas and cigarettes that are difficult to see on the market.

Lao Wang seemed to have been here before. He sat in the window seat very familiarly, while Lao Wu seemed a little unfamiliar. After looking at it for a while, he sat down at the seat next to Lao Wang, and Chang Tianming Then he took matters into his own hands and brewed a pot of good tea for us.

……

The aroma of tea overflowed. After we each took a sip, we started chatting. Chang Tianming was the person who organized the game, so naturally he spoke first. He said to Lao Wu very clearly: "Old Wu, I don’t know if this is the case." I’m old, and lately I always feel like things are going to change in our small town!”

Director Lao Wu took a sip of tea and asked with a smile: "How do you say this?"

"We are all old friends, and I won't beat around the bush. If you really award the road expansion project to the Guan family, you are supporting their monopoly... Look at how our small town's tourism economy has developed. What's it like? It's just the Guan family that is the only one. You give them all the good policies, but other scenic spots also have to eat..." After a pause, Chang Tianming said again: "In the past few years, You have determined the development policy of treating tourism as the pillar of the economy. The molybdenum mining industry is now nationalized and developed in a controlled manner. It should be replaced by new industries. The tourism resources here are the best in the province. It is not an exaggeration to say that as a local entrepreneur, I absolutely support tourism as a pillar industry. I think we will reach this point sooner or later, so I spent more than 5 million to buy it more than ten years ago. I should indeed bear the main responsibility for poor management of the Danangou Scenic Area. But don’t you have any responsibility at all? We really can’t get any public resources. , you need money but not money, you need transportation but not transportation, you know best who these money and resources are given to... Yes, you have concentrated your efforts to create a 5A-level scenic spot, which is quite fruitful, but have you I have thought about it, nothing in this world lasts forever, and the economic situation is changing rapidly. If one day, their [-]A-level scenic spot fails, does that mean that our entire tourism economy will collapse? ...At that time, who will be responsible for the future of the county, who will be responsible for the economy, and who will be responsible for people's livelihood?" Old Wu glanced at Chang Tianming, and then fell into silence and deep thought.

Chang Tianming changed his sitting position and said: "If our tourism economy is compared to an airplane, only dual engines or even four engines are safe. Economically developed provinces have long realized this truth, so Shandong has Jinan and Qingdao. Two twin stars, Zhejiang has Hangzhou and Ningbo, Fujian has Fuzhou and Xiamen, Guangdong has Shenzhen, Guangzhou and Foshan... Jiangsu also has the four carriages of Nanjing, Suzhou, Wuxi and Nantong... Why does it develop like this? We don’t want to bet the fate of the entire province on a few cities... On the other hand, in our county, do we really want to hand over the lifeblood of our tourism economy to the Guan family?”

Master Lao Wu pondered at first, then sighed again, and said: "As the leader, I am responsible for the reasonable allocation of resources. How can I not understand the principles you said? ... But the current situation is indeed their Guan family's scenic spot. Do the best, other scenic spots are in a state of being unable to support the wall. Of course I hope that our tourism economy can fully bloom, but from my perspective, if I allocate public resources to scenic spots like yours, But if you fail to do it, it is a waste... Investing in their Guan family's scenic spots is a kind of guarantee. Now the top leaders in the county have the same attitude. What we are pursuing is stability at this stage... After all... …”

Old Wu hesitated to speak, but Chang Tianming smiled and replied: "After all, you all have tenure. As long as you don't make mistakes when you are in office, it is a kind of merit."

Director Lao Wu looked at Chang Tianming. Although he said nothing, it was equivalent to an acquiescence.

Chang Tianming sighed. He had never been a smoker, but he actually lit a cigarette for the first time. After taking a deep breath, he said to Lao Wu: "Our inaction in these scenic spots has indeed made things difficult for the leaders. But temporary inaction cannot represent the future... Lao Lao Wu, any reform is risky and painful. You are no exception, and we are no exception... Today, why did I invite Lao Lao Wang and Xiao Han to come and talk to you? We are talking about this matter because we are ready for reform. This reform started from our Danangou Scenic Area. Lao Laowang gave us strong support. He took the risk of increasing the financial burden and opened up our scenic area. The first bus line in history, why would Lao Laowang be willing to take risks to do this? It’s because of Xiao Han next to me, who has brought us hope of revival... Xiao Han, tell me your thoughts boldly Listen, Old Wu."

I stood up and said hello to Lao Wu, and he stood up solemnly and extended his hand to me. After the handshake ceremony was over, I told Lao Wu the idea I expressed at the bonfire party that day. During the process of my explanation, I specially observed Lao Wu. He nodded several times, and then showed a thoughtful expression on his face several times. It was obvious that he really listened.

Finally, I said to Lao Wu: "Lao Wu, I have traveled to almost all cities in the country, and I have been exposed to countless scenic spots... I think Danangou Scenic Area has the potential to become the first resort-type scenic spot in the small town. Conditions, the small town really needs such a scenic spot to increase the thickness of the entire tourism economy. As long as our idea of ​​a resort-type scenic spot is implemented, it will completely end the come-and-go tourism format of the small town for decades, and we will attract more High-end tourists come here for vacation or even a short stay... In addition, we can also take a longer-term view. Now that the resort-type scenic spot has taken shape, can we also develop resort-type real estate near the scenic spot to attract What about high-end tourists coming to buy houses?... There are really large tracts of land to be developed near Danangou Scenic Area. This is an advantage that other scenic spots do not have... How much financial income can the real estate create for the government? I don’t need to emphasize it too much... So, in the long run, should we give our Danangou Scenic Area a decent traffic environment? If our roads are not renovated, there will be no way to develop resort properties, because The first condition for selling a house is transportation..."

After saying these words, not only Lao Wu, but also Chang Tianming and Lao Wang nodded in agreement; and Chang Tianming took over my words and said: "Old Wu, these ideas just mentioned are not We are running wild... After this bonfire party, there are already two tens of millions of B&B investments that can be confirmed... Xiao Han, in addition to these two tens of millions of investments, the friends you came with are also able to Are you sure about your investment intention?”

Today, other friends actually contacted me, so I replied truthfully: "Yes, I have another friend who is engaged in the cultural and tourism industry, and he is also planning to invest in a B&B worth tens of millions of dollars in a scenic spot, which is less than ten million dollars. There are three things that can be determined... I believe that if we can change the traffic environment in Danangou and dispel investors' doubts, we will definitely attract more investment, because traffic is our only shortcoming now."

Chang Tianming spread his hands and said with a smile: "Old Wu, do you hear me... We are ready for everything now, we really just need a good road!"

Old Wu had a complicated expression on his face, and after a while he replied: "But the Guan family is in direct contact with the county, so I'm afraid they are powerless!"

At this time, Lao Wang, who had been silent for a long time, finally said: "You don't have to worry about this. I'll find someone with more weight. When the time comes, as long as you represent you and truthfully express your position against monopoly, we will be sure." Get this done.”

"Then I don't mean to offend..."

Lao Wang smiled and said: "Zhu will leave office in half a year, but you still have to stay in this position for another two or three years... With such a political leader in front of you, are you really going to give up?"

After such a frank exchange, Lao Wu finally wavered. Just when he was about to speak, Qiao Jiao's scream suddenly came from the first floor!
