Great Doctor Without Borders

Chapter 1433 No need

Xing Wenhu understood that Xu Chunliang meant that the working environment in Dongzhou was no longer suitable for him. Everyone has their own aspirations and should not be forced. Xing Wenhu said, "Your ability is fine. Jeju has invested a lot in cultural tourism. I will say hello to Xiao Jiang later and ask her to take care of you."

Xu Chunliang smiled and said, "No need, she is my sister."

Xing Wenhu then realized that the two had such a relationship, but he was worrying too much. He smiled and said, "That's good. You should work hard in Jeju and try to achieve some results."

Xu Chunliang came out of Xing Wenhu's room and went straight to Lu Ming's room.

Neither of them had a chance to talk today. When they arrived at the door, Lu Ming just opened it and came out. The two looked at each other and laughed.

Lu Ming said: "I was just about to go find you."

Xu Chunliang said: "Let's go and find a place to have a drink."

Lu Ming nodded and followed Xu Chunliang to a nearby mutton soup restaurant. Lu Ming liked eating mutton, and this mutton soup restaurant was a local time-honored brand.

The business in the restaurant was booming, so the two of them sat down in the hall. When Xu Chunliang was ordering food, someone came over to say hello. It turned out that Li Yong had invited a few brothers to dine here. When he saw Xu Chunliang, he hurried over to say hello.

Xu Chunliang told Li Yong that there was no need to come specially as they all liked quiet time. Li Yong understood immediately as he was very familiar with the restaurant owner, so he asked the owner to arrange some special dishes for Xu Chunliang and the others and put the order on his bill.

When Xu Chunliang saw the dishes coming up so quickly, he knew someone had arranged it.

Lu Ming said: "Sure, I've made friends everywhere in Jeju in just a few days."

Xu Chunliang said: "I always win people over with my virtue wherever I go. There is nothing I can do about it. My personality is too charismatic."

Lu Ming had no objection to this point. He drank a glass with Xu Chunliang, and Xu Chunliang filled his glass again.

Lu Ming said: "Secretary Xing is very kind to you. He asked for someone in public. This is a good opportunity for you to move up."

Xu Chunliang smiled and said, "Moving up? To the provincial capital? At my level, I'd just be doing odd jobs for others."

Lu Ming said: "It's all about doing odd jobs everywhere. But there's a huge difference between doing odd jobs for a county magistrate and doing odd jobs for the emperor."

Xu Chunliang said: "Doing odd jobs for the emperor is a waste of money."

Lu Ming almost spit out the words, but he held it back and turned his head to cough twice: "Ahem, you hurt me, I almost... choked to death."

Xu Chunliang said, "No, try the whipped hydrangea. This dish is our specialty. You should eat more."

Lu Ming said: "Even if I make up for it, there's no place to use it."

Xu Chunliang said, "When you are well fed and warm, you will think about sex. Director Lu, this is not a good sign."

Lu Ming said: "Don't talk nonsense and think that everyone is like you."

Xu Chunliang said: "We are different. I am not married and I am free to fall in love. If you try to imitate me, that would be a bad behavior."

Lu Ming said: "There is nothing to brag about this, and I don't envy you. Your sister-in-law is pregnant."

Xu Chunliang said: "I didn't hear her say that."

Lu Ming laughed and scolded: "You deserve a beating, don't you? You take advantage of everything."

Xu Chunliang said cheerfully: "Congratulations, you have responded to the country's call and have a second child, right?"

Lu Ming said: "It was an accident, purely an accident. I didn't want it at first, but after thinking about it, I decided to keep it. One or two are good for raising."

Xu Chunliang couldn't help but think of himself. He was quite capable in this aspect and worked hard, but he had not harvested a single grain so far. This time, he and Hua Zhuyue had been sowing seeds for a whole night in Daocheng. If there was still no movement, he would have to secretly check his sperm motility. Although he was not ready for the next generation, contraception and infertility were two different things.

Lu Ming noticed that he was suddenly distracted: "Hey, what are you thinking about?"

Xu Chunliang said: "I didn't think about anything. I was just a little emotional. I was wondering when I could become a father."

Lu Ming said: "Then you have to get married first. Having a child without getting married is irresponsible. Chunliang, which one do you like?"

Xu Chunliang said: "I am still young, and it is not the time to consider this matter yet."

Lu Ming said: "Just dating without getting married is just being a hooligan. You are not an irresponsible person."

Xu Chunliang said: "Let's change the subject."

Lu Ming said: "We haven't finished talking yet. Mei Ruxue is so good. She is both talented and beautiful, and she is also a department-level cadre. I think you two are a good match."

Xu Chunliang said: "We know for ourselves whether it is suitable or not."

Lu Ming nodded and said, "That's right. I just feel sorry for you." Xu Chunliang didn't want to continue discussing his personal emotional issues, so he drank another glass with Lu Ming: "A few days ago, I went to the island city to attend the opening ceremony of the Oriental Movie Metropolis. The policies of the island city are so powerful. Why don't you follow up and learn from them?"

Lu Ming immediately understood what he meant: "Are you saying that the film and television base invested by Bluestar Group does not enjoy enough policy benefits? We did not show enough sincerity?"

Xu Chunliang said: "It's not that we don't have sincerity. Policies cannot remain unchanged. We need to make constant fine-tuning according to the environment. What I mean is that we can't do a one-time deal. It's not over once the investment is successful. You have to let people enjoy the dividends of the policy and make money. Only then will they be willing to make subsequent investments. With a sample and benchmark, more investors will join in the future."

Lu Ming nodded. "That's true, but I'm just the director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau. I can control the things within my power. I can't do anything about anything else. As for the matter you mentioned, I will study it carefully when I go back and submit a report to my superiors. As for whether it can be approved in the end, it is not in my control."

Xu Chunliang knew that what he said was the truth. He was an outlier in the system. Despite his low rank, he often caused chaos in the entire Dongzhou. Now that he thought about it, Wang Jianming wanted to send him away not only because he had made the Wang family lose face.

Lu Mingdao: "The scope of our attention is determined by where we are. Take the Weishan Island tourist incident as an example. What we see is different from what our superiors see."

Xu Chunliang said: "You are still very experienced."

Lu Ming said: "You are scolding me. I am not very advanced in Taoism. My limit is determined by my ability. I can't compare with you in this aspect. You are the Monkey King who can make trouble in the Heavenly Palace, and I am at most a small land god."

Xu Chunliang said: "Don't be modest, your work achievements since you went to the Culture and Tourism Bureau are obvious to all."

Lu Ming said: "It's all thanks to your help, brother. Speaking of this, I must toast you a glass."

"No, I'm not good enough to accomplish anything, but I'm always a failure!"

They both laughed at the same time.

After finishing the glass of wine, Lu Ming said, "There is something I need to tell you in advance. Our city leaders also attach great importance to the archaeological project of the underwater sunken city. It should be said that the provincial leaders also attach great importance to it. If there is no significant discovery after the excavation of the underwater sunken city, it will be fine. If the archaeological results are outstanding, I am afraid there will be some trouble."

Xu Chunliang asked, "What's the matter? Are you thinking about picking peaches even though the peach trees haven't bloomed yet?"

Lu Ming said: "Do you know that since the discovery of the Warring States tomb, the number of visitors to the Dongzhou Museum has increased several times? If, I mean if, the underwater city has the same archaeological value as the Warring States tomb, it will greatly boost local tourism. Whether it is Dongzhou or Jeju, the leaders will not miss this great opportunity to enhance cultural tourism."

Xu Chunliang said: "Can't we cooperate and win together? Why do we have to fight to the point of bloodshed?"

Lu Ming said: "There are many precedents in the local area. Everyone wants to take it for themselves and refuses to give in. In the end, it's like cutting a cake in half. Not to mention us, even the country can't do anything about it. They are all their own children. We can't give one and not the other. We can only turn a blind eye."

Xu Chunliang said: "We haven't even started yet. You're overthinking it. Maybe you won't find anything."

Lu Ming said: "I'm just saying this first. If we ever get into a fight about this, you have to show mercy."

Xu Chunliang laughed and said, "Are you still afraid that I will hit you?"

Lu Ming said: "Cooperation is win-win, remember what you said today."

Lu Ming had work to do the next day, so he didn't dare drink too much. He asked to go home at 10 o'clock in the evening. Xu Chunliang didn't force him. He asked at the cashier and found out that Li Yong had paid the bill.

Jiang Yunna's suggestion that the new cultural center should be entirely handed over to the Culture and Tourism Bureau for use and management caused disagreements within the leadership.

According to her proposal, the Science and Technology Museum and the Planning Museum were all excluded. This involved too many interests and a decision could not be made immediately. Secretary Deng Yuqi asked all parties to submit research reports as soon as possible.

Jiang Yunna was mentally prepared that this matter was not so easy to resolve. Not long after she returned to the office after the meeting, Chen Xingmin, deputy director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau, came to see her.

Chen Xingmin came here this time to fight for the library and museum. He also knew that his speech at the internal meeting had offended Jiang Qiyong, so Jiang Qiyong threw this burden on him.

Chen Xingmin was also holding back his energy. The museum issue had been basically settled, and the main thing now was to strive for the library to be located in the new cultural center. Chen Xingmin did not expect to take over the entire new cultural center, as that was unrealistic. Having worked in the system for many years, he was very clear about the balance within it.

There was another reason why he came to find Jiang Yunna, that was when he was a high school teacher, he had taught Jiang Yunna, and Jiang Yunna was his student.

Jiang Yunna also respected Chen Xingmin very much. When she heard that he was coming, she quickly asked her secretary to invite him in. She stood up and greeted him, "Teacher Chen is here."

Chen Xingmin said, "Mayor Jiang, I disturbed you today because I have something to report."

Jiang Yunna smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, you are too polite. I welcome you to come anytime. You don't have to be polite to me. You can call me Xiao Jiang or my name."

Chen Xingmin said: "You still have to be careful at work."

Jiang Yunna poured him a cup of tea personally.

Chen Xingmin explained the purpose of his visit.

Jiang Yunna frowned and said, "Teacher Chen, the city just held a meeting, which was chaired by Secretary Deng himself. At the meeting, they discussed how to use the new cultural center, but still could not reach a consensus. Secretary Deng asked all departments to conduct research and the discussion will continue next week."

Chen Xingmin handed the prepared report to Jiang Yunna.
