Whirlwind Tai Chi Li Erhai

Chapter 139 Visiting an Old Friend
After dinner, it was past ten o'clock.

When I got home, I rang the doorbell, and it was Li Heng who opened the door.

Seeing that his parents were back, Li Heng was so excited that he threw himself into Li Erhai's arms.

"Father, where have you been hiding these few days? Do you want Li Heng again?"

Li Erhai hugged his son and said as he entered the room: "My dear son, Dad loves you so much, why doesn't he want you?"

"Why don't you go home for a few days and don't call me?"

"Dad is busy and has no time. Dad misses you too!"

Knowing that Li Erhai had suffered these past few days, he must be very tired, so Wang Yan hurriedly hugged Li Heng and asked Li Erhai to take a bath and get ready to rest.

Although Wang Yan didn't say anything, Du Cui had a clue, and vaguely felt that something had happened.Now that his daughter and son-in-law have returned home safely, the old man is also very happy.

Du Cui smiled and said, "Er Hai, you don't know that Li Heng has missed you these days, and he refuses to sleep at night. He must wait for you to come back."

Li Erhai felt that it was fine for him to suffer a little bit, but the most sorry was his family, including his immature son.

When I got home, my heart was at ease, I took a good bath, and fell asleep.

This time I slept soundly and deeply, and didn't wake up until seven o'clock the next morning.

When I got up to work, I saw Mary as soon as I arrived at the gate of the county compound.

Mary was there waiting for him.

"Er Hai, what happened?"

"Nothing happened."

"Why are you hiding it from me? A friend in the provincial capital said something happened to you, but they didn't know the inside story, which made me worry about you for several days."

"It's really nothing, it's just a misunderstanding."

"You are such a heartless thing. Who am I, Mary? Nothing, but I was willing to worry about you, and you don't want to tell me now."

"Thank you, Mary, I know that."

"You have a big head."

Suddenly thinking of Mary's father Wang Dongsheng, Li Erhai asked with concern: "How is your father now?"

Mary felt a little sad when he mentioned her father.

"Fortunately, it has been sentenced, two years, probation for two years, and now I am living at home."

"Oh, I really didn't expect it. I hope he doesn't hate me."

"I really don't hate you. He hates himself now. It seems to be a lot better."

"Well, I'm going to work now, and I'll go see your dad in the evening. Does he live in the old house now?"

"No, live with me."

Mary was very moved when she heard that Li Erhai was going to visit her father at home.

I haven't been to work for a few days, and I have a backlog of things to deal with.

As soon as he arrived at the office, the secretary brought a stack of documents for him to sign.

"County magistrate, several township chiefs are coming to report on their work, and several enterprises in the park want to invite you to handle large-scale operations. See if you have any time to arrange it recently."

"Let's start next Monday. Today is the last day of this week. It's too late."

"Okay, then I'll make a schedule first, and I'll ask for instructions later."

Although the report was not accepted until next week, he called Xie Chuang over.

Li Erhai now wants to make Qingfeng Town a development model, and use this as a breakthrough to break the curse that backward areas cannot develop.

Xie Chuang reported in detail the recent developments in the town.

"Major Li, now we are focusing on characteristic agriculture and tourism. These two are the starting points for our Qingfeng development."

"Not to mention, I didn't do anything before, and I felt that nothing could be done, and nothing could be done. Since the start of the characteristic agriculture and tourism, the whole town seems to be moving now. The people seem to see hope and have motivation. They have been looking for ways to develop themselves, and now a good situation has formed, that is, all walks of life have begun to make movements, plans are planned, actions are taken, and everyone is starting to do things.”

"That's good. If your town develops like this, it will soon become rich. Why were people poor in the past, lazy, why lazy? Thinking lazy. Don't think about anything, don't dare to think about anything. Opportunities are still afraid of wolves and tigers, so it’s no wonder they’re not poor.”

Li Erhai is quite satisfied with the current situation of Qingfeng Town, and also satisfied with Xie Chuang's performance.

"Major Li, you are right. After I arrived in Qingfeng, I did research and finally found the root cause of the lack of development for so many years. It is the lazy word you just mentioned. The masses are lazy, and the town and village cadres are not thinking. lazy."

"It's the most backward place in the county. Everyone knows that there is no way to develop, so no one uses their brains. Being a monk beats the clock for a day, and the thoughts are serious. There are a lot of troublemakers in the town."

"So, I chose you to be the mayor at that time, now you understand?"

"I knew your intentions at that time, and I just wanted to go to a bad environment to exercise. At the very least, I wanted to do something famous, let the masses get some benefits, and let them get on the road to wealth as soon as possible."

"It's good that you have this idea. You are like-minded. I hope we can fight side by side in the future."

"Don't worry, I am no longer the Xie Chuang I used to be. Now I am a down-to-earth person. I don't care about other things. You are my role model. I am lucky to have you as a classmate, and even more fortunate to have a leader like you !"

"Don't put a high hat on me, just do your best. By the way, how is the Xuanfengling Scenic Area these days?"

"This Lin Juan is really capable. Didn't the scenic spot just start to open, and she started to promote it. Didn't I go to the provincial TV station with you to discuss advertisements last week? I didn't expect it. The advertisement was only launched for three days, that is, yesterday Thursday. , We received calls from travel agencies one after another, saying that they would send a group to test the water, and some individual tourists had already gone up the mountain, and the response was good.”

"Okay, that's what we want. Keep an eye on me, manage well, and provide good service. There must be no mistakes. You have to know that good things don't go out, and bad things spread far and wide."

"I know, I've been staring at it for the past few days. The management of Hong Kong Shengda Company is still in place. They have mature management experience. We don't need to intervene in this. We are only responsible for coordinating relevant conflicts and giving them the management of Xuanfengling Scenic Area. The company will do it."

"Oh, I forgot, this Lin Juan is really courageous, she came up with a plan, from today until the Spring Festival, all foreign tour groups will be subsidized, and the intensity is quite strong, according to my calculations, tourists come here to play, Tickets are basically free."

"This is the right way. Everything is difficult at the beginning. Doing it this way is to burn money first. The purpose is to expand the influence and win the source of customers."

"Large companies do things differently. Looking back now, when we think about our Qingfeng Township, we have not been able to develop for many years. It is really the result of rigid thinking and timidity."

At around six o'clock in the evening, Li Erhai packed two packs of good cigarettes and two bottles of good wine in his pocket, and rode his electric scooter to Mary's Western-style courtyard.

What he didn't expect was that Wang Dongsheng had been standing at the gate of the courtyard waiting for him.

Seeing Li Erhai arrived, Wang Dongsheng walked over quickly, stepped forward and held his hand.

"County Li, I didn't expect you to come to see me. It's really unexpected."

"Major Wang, it's my fault for taking so long to visit you."

"Where is it, come in quickly, let's talk in the room."

Mary also came out when she heard the sound, and shouted, "Er Hai, come in quickly."

Wang Dongsheng didn't know the relationship between Li Erhai and Mary, and felt that it was a bit abrupt for his daughter to call Li Erhai like that, so he said seriously: "Xiao Li, be polite."

Unexpectedly, when Mary heard this, she immediately burst out laughing.

"Polite? I can't talk about politeness with him in this life."

Then he said to Li Erhai: "Come inside, my dad has been waiting for you outside the door for a long time."

The nanny had already come to serve the dishes and urged them to take a seat.

Li Erhai brought up two bottles of wine and said, "County Wang, let's have a good time today."

This Wang Dongsheng liked to drink, even though he didn't drink much, he liked it.

"Of course, of course. But I'm embarrassed that you brought wine to my house."

Li Erhai extended his hand to Wang Dongsheng.

"Magistrate Wang, why are you so particular about it? Come, have a drink."

Wang Dongsheng and Li Erhai lifted a glass full, did not put down the wine glass, but squeezed the wine glass and said with emotion: "County Li, since I fell off the horse, you are the first person to visit me, you make me feel ashamed, You make me so grateful!"

"Actually, I wanted to see you a long time ago, but I was busy all the time. I was really busy, so I delayed this matter. When I saw Mary today, I thought about this again. I made up my mind to come and see you today. "

"thank you very much!"

"No need to thank you, no matter what, we are colleagues, and we are destined. In life, peace is the most important thing, don't you think?"

"Come on, County Magistrate Li, let me have another drink for what you said just now."

The two raised another glass.

Wang Dongsheng put down his chopsticks and stared into Li Erhai's eyes.

"County Li, in terms of age, you are much younger than me, and in terms of debut, you are much later than me. Logically, you are a junior in front of me."

Having said that, Wang Dongsheng sighed.

"However, now I understand that a hero doesn't ask where he comes from, and you are a young talent who deserves the name. A few years ago, I couldn't understand your proud appearance, and I felt jealous, and then hated you. Instead, I made myself a miserable end, which makes you laugh."

"Major Wang, tell Potian, you are my elder and once my old leader, don't take yours one by one, I'm not used to it, and I'm out of touch, just call me Erhai."

"How dare you, how can you?"

Mary happened to come over to deliver food, and said, "Dad, I always call him Erhai, you are my dad, why can't you call him Erhai?"

"This child is not big or small."

"Dad, you just shout like that, he's happy."

"Magistrate Wang, I'm so glad you shouted like that. I don't care about money or power, I just want to be happy. If you keep looking outside like that, I'll be unhappy instead."

Wang Dongsheng admired Li Erhai from the bottom of his heart. He never thought that when he was young, his ideals were the same as Li Erhai's, but as time went by, he gradually changed and became unrecognizable to himself.The ancients said that time shifts people, which is true.

The young man in front of him now has made rapid progress, but he never takes big things. He is sincere to others and does not play fake games. I have to give him a thumbs up.

He thought to himself, it would be great if he had such a son-in-law!

"Okay, okay, I'll call you Erhai from now on, as long as you county magistrate Li thinks highly of me."

"That said, there are still many aspects that I need to ask you for advice. Come on, let's go one more time."

This meal lasted until after ten o'clock.

This Wang Dongsheng and Li Erhai opened up their hearts. The more they talked, the more speculative they became, and the more they talked, the closer they got.

Mary watched from the sidelines, and was very happy in her heart. With Li Erhai's consolation, her father completely let go, and he could enjoy the rest of his life in peace.

Before leaving, Li Erhai said: "Major Wang, you can't just stay at home all the time, go out and walk around, meet everyone, and get together when you have time. In two years, I hope you will come out and play the rest of your energy."

This last sentence had a lot of meaning, Wang Dongsheng was grateful, and even a little excited in his heart.
