Power and Official Career - Chapter [-]: Lu Yan's Treat

Professor Zhang and Dean Tang of Zijin Steel Industry Exploration Institute arrived at Lu Yan's office on time at seven o'clock in the evening.

Greeting them to sit down, Lu Yan was not too polite, and directly asked about the gold mine exploration in Wugou Village of Zijin Steel Industry.

Today's topic was originally this, so the professors did not hide it, and reported the situation during this period to Lu Yan.

Professor Zhang's report is both good and bad for Sidaogou Town.

The good news is that after exploration, there is indeed a large iron mine in Sidaogou Town, and the reserves are quite objective.The worrying aspect is that the mining conditions of this iron ore are really a bit difficult. It is buried in the interior of the mountain, and it can only be mined after cutting off a mountain.

After listening to Professor Zhang's report, Lu Yan fell into deep thought.It is not a difficult problem for Zijin Steel to level a mountain, and there are many precedents in domestic mining.Now the reason why Professor Zhang and the people from Zijin Steel came to report this issue to him must be because there is something else hidden.

Professor Zhang and the others didn't say anything, but it didn't necessarily mean that Lu Yan didn't ask.It is still in the preliminary exploration stage of the project, and it is absolutely necessary to put all the problems on the table and make them clear.If the problem is discovered when the project is actually invested and constructed, it will be difficult to turn around when the ship is too big.

So Lu Yan directly asked the people in Zijin Steel Industry if they had any problems cutting mountains and mining.

Dean Tang is only a middle-level person in charge in Zijin Steel, but he must have consulted the headquarters on this issue before reporting to Lu Yan.Seeing Lu Yan ask at this time, he made a plan and went back preparedly.

Zijin Steel's opinion is that as long as Sidaogou Town decides to cut the mountain, they will cooperate fully without any problem.

After turning around, the last ball still hit Lu Yan.However, from Zijin Steel's reply just now, Lu Yan also sensed that there must be some other secrets in this mountain cutting project, and neither of them said anything about it.

In fact, Professor Zhang came here today to let Lu Yan take this idea on this matter.After all, they were outsiders, and they thought that Lu Yan was familiar with the situation in Sidaogou Town, so they didn't explain these things clearly.

Speaking of the concerns of Professor Zhang and Zijin Steel, it was still because of the customs of Sidaogou Town.

There is a tradition in Sidaogou Town that after death, a sky burial is performed. The sky burial they do is to put the person in a coffin and put it on the mountain to weather naturally, without sparks or burial.And the mountain behind Wugou Village, which is the top of the mountain that is planned to be flattened, is the site of sky burials in several nearby villages. Over the years, the mountain has been densely filled with coffins.When the prospectors entered the mountain for exploration, they had already aroused dissatisfaction among the local villagers, and it was only after the village came forward to coordinate that they were able to enter the mountain.If the mountain is to be flattened now, it will definitely arouse the opposition of the local villagers, so the town's opinion was first sought.

However, Lu Yan has not been in Sidaogou Town for a long time. Although he has heard about the customs of sky burials, he has no specific understanding of them. It's not good to make a hasty statement.

However, since it has been confirmed that the iron ore resources do exist and the mining conditions are met, the question is whether to cut the mountain or not, and Lu Yan probably has a good idea about this matter.

Lu Yan decided to go to Wugou Village to take a look in person, and make a decision after understanding the actual situation.

After talking about business matters, the atmosphere relaxed a lot.Especially when he heard that the iron mine in Sidaogou Town was already a certainty, Lu Yan was very happy in his heart.Following this opportunity, he also planned to reward these members of the Geological Exploration Team.

So Lu Yan proposed to go to a restaurant in the town to have a drink together. Professor Zhang and Dean Tang saw that Secretary Lu had personally invited him, but they didn't refuse. They called people on both sides and went to the town street together. to the restaurant.

When Lu Yan went out, he also looked at the offices one by one, and called up the few people who were still in the team.

Gao Yongfu and Li Changsheng are both natives of Sidaogou Town. They have their own house on the town street and don't usually live in the compound.At this time, it was Huangfuqiang, Wang Junqiang, and Ma Cheng who called Lu Yan.

The town team doesn't often come out for dinner like this, and the three of them were a little murmured about Lu Yan's sudden invitation, but they were still idle, and they had no reason to refuse to go when the leader called.

There were also Professor Zhang and Dean Tang who went out to meet with them, and these people were relieved.

The booked place was Wangji not far from the town government. When Lu Yan and the others arrived, the geological survey team and people from Zijin Steel were already waiting at the door.

The income of the locals in Sidaogou Town is very low, and it is rare to go back to the restaurant. After the people from the geological survey team and Zijin Steel Industry came, they were regular customers of this restaurant. The boss saw them coming, so he quickly greeted them and sat down. .On the contrary, Lu Yan and the other four town leaders rarely saw each other, so they didn't recognize them now.

There were a total of twelve people from the Geological Exploration Team and the Capital Steel Industry. In addition to Lu Yan and the other four, they sat at two tables in total.

However, only six people were seated at the first table, the four town leaders, Professor Zhang and Dean Tang, and the remaining ten people were squeezed to another table.

As soon as the group sat down, the boss promptly served cold dishes such as salted peanuts and pig ears.The conditions in the town are no better than that of a big hotel, just these two dishes and nothing else, so the boss didn't ask the guests for their opinions, so he put together a few cold dishes first.

Lu Yan guessed that everyone had already eaten, so he ordered the special mutton from Sidaogou Town and a few dishes suitable for drinking, and asked everyone, and none of them wanted staple food.

Lu Yan sat at the head seat, took out two boxes of high-quality Wucheng brand cigarettes from his pocket, and handed them to the owner of the restaurant, asking him to unpack and put one box on each table.

Staring at the top-quality Wucheng smoke that Lu Yan took out, the eyes of the people at the two tables gleamed.The people from the Geological Exploration Team and the Zijin Steel Industry Exploration Institute have been working in the field all year round, and they are all old smokers. Seeing that Lu Yan took out such good cigarettes at this time, there is no reason not to be greedy.

Lu Yan watched with a smile as everyone snatched up the cigarettes and smoked them, and took out two whole sticks from the bag behind them, and handed them to Professor Zhang and Dean Tang: "Brothers have worked hard outside, these two sticks Taking the cigarettes back for everyone to scatter for a while is considered a little bit of kindness.”

The restaurant is not big, and Lu Yan's voice is not low. Naturally, the people from the Geological Exploration Team and the Exploration Institute all heard Lu Yan's words, and their hearts were itchy immediately, and the influence on the young secretary was also good at once. up.

Before the hard dishes were served, Lu Yan and the others were smoking and chatting. Everyone had eaten, and no one touched the cold dishes on the table at this time.

After about seven or eight minutes, the owner of the store brought up two large pots of Sidaogou Town specialty Qingshui mutton with a strong aroma, and a pot was placed on a table.He introduced with a smile: "The leaders are lucky. This is an authentic Xiagou sheep that was slaughtered just this afternoon. It just happens to let a few distinguished guests try something new."

Then he asked Lu Yan, "Secretary Lu, what wine do you want to drink?" After entering the door for so long, the shop owner finally figured out that today's protagonist is actually this young man, the party secretary of Sidaogou Town.

Lu Yan said: "Today is my private treat, so I will drink good wine. What kind of wine do you have here? The best."

Dean Tang hurriedly said that today is a treat from Zijin Steel, but Lu Yan stopped him with a smile, and bluntly said that today is a private occasion, and he paid for it himself to express his personal thanks.

Having said that, Dean Tang naturally couldn't rush to say anything. He had already planned in his heart that he must be the first to pay the bill.

When the shop owner heard what Lu Yan and the others said, he couldn't even close his mouth with a smile, "I have local Hongchuan special song and Yanghe blue classic, both of which are good wines. I don't know which one the leaders like to drink. ?”

Finally, I chose the local Hongchuan special song, which is the best kind of Hongchuan wine. Although the brand is not very bright, it is an authentic grain wine, which is safe to drink.

After ordering wine, Lu Yan invited everyone to eat meat. In fact, everyone was already greedy for the taste. Hearing Lu Yan's words, they all started to eat.

The shop owner brought in the wine and opened it, pouring a small glass in front of everyone. Lu Yan stopped his chopsticks, stood up and held the wine glass and said, "Let's have a drink with everyone today, thank you for your support some time ago. It’s hard work, and to celebrate our discovery of a big iron mine in Sidaogou Town!” After speaking, he raised his neck and drank it in one gulp.

Although Lu Yan's few words were not many, they were all very heartwarming, and everyone present also drank the wine in their hands one after another, feeling a little agitated.Huangfuqiang and the three of them only knew about the discovery of the iron mine at this time, and they were all very happy.

Next, they talked happily about the wine, and they were very happy to drink.Lu Yan also learned about Chishan's concerns from Professor Zhang and the others, and he had a little understanding of this matter in his heart.

This was the first time Huangfu Qiang and the others drank with Lu Yan since they joined a team, and the three of them also took this opportunity to express their feelings to Lu Yan.

Lu Yan didn't take those things to heart in the first place, and they cooperated well with each other during this period of time. Seeing the three of them actively approaching him at this time, there is still a reason not to accept it.

Lu Yan himself was not strong enough to drink. Although he was the one to treat guests today, Huangfu Qiang and the others were also his own people. He kept blocking the wine for Lu Yan, and he went out to toast from time to time.

Regardless of the large number of people on the side of the Geological Survey Team and the Exploration Institute, Huangfu Qiang and his three grassroots cadres can't drink too much. In addition, there is also "internal friction" between the two groups of people from the Geological Survey Team and the Exploration Institute. After two hours, the two parties were evenly matched.
