This time it was a business trip, so Ling You didn't take the train to the province alone, so he gave way to Lu Yao and transferred the train.

At almost ten o'clock in the morning, Ling You and the other three arrived at Songming City, the provincial capital. Ling You didn't intend to let the driver and Lu Yao know where they were going, so he suggested that everyone eat first.

After the three of them had eaten, Ling You asked them to walk around the city and meet them later. This made the driver and Lu Yao confused, but Lu Yao was undoubtedly a smarter one and did not

After asking more questions, I agreed directly.

After Ling You left the two of them, he took a taxi directly to the provincial government.

Arriving at the gate of the provincial government compound, Ling You paid and got out of the car, then walked to the doorman's window. The doorman, Mr. Yang, still asked with a lazy expression: "What do you want?"

Ling You smiled and said, "Don't you remember me?"

Old Yang heard something familiar, and then he looked at Ling You. He was stunned for a while, then turned around and walked out of the guard room with a smile on his face, smiling: "Ah! It's Mayor Ling, you seem to be

It was a bit dark, I almost didn’t recognize it.”

Ling You laughed and took out a pack of cigarettes he had bought in advance from his coat pocket. He first took out a few cigarettes and handed them to Lao Yang: "The autumn wind is strong in the town, so my skin is naturally rough."

Lao Yang smiled and took the cigarette and put it in his mouth. Ling You took out a lighter and lit it for him. Lao Yang quickly reached out to cover the fire, then blew out a smoke ring and smiled: "This is pretty good, look at your body."

Stronger and more masculine.”

Ling You laughed and said, "Master Yang, you are just joking. You are welcome to visit us in Liushan Town in the future." After saying that, he stuffed the entire box of cigarettes and the lighter into Lao Yang's jacket pocket.

Just as Lao Yang was about to take it out and refuse, Ling You stretched out his hand to stop him, and patted his hand that was put into his pocket: "It's disrespectful to be careful."

Lao Yang was not polite when he heard this and smiled: "Thank you very much, Mayor Ling."

Then he said: "You still come to see the governor today?"

Ling You didn't say anything more, just hummed, and then said: "I have contacted Director Qi, and he will pick me up in a moment."

Lao Yang then said, "Then let's stop standing outside. Mayor Ling, come in quickly and wait."

After hearing this, Ling You and Lao Yang went into the guard room again and chatted a few words about home affairs.

About half an hour later, Qi Lei walked out quickly and rushed towards the guard room.

When Ling You saw Qi Lei's figure, he stood up and said with a smile, "Director Qi is here."

Lao Yang also stood up and looked around.

Then Ling You opened the door and walked out. When Qi Lei came to a place not far from Ling You, he stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Mayor Ling, we meet again."

Ling You also stretched out his hand and shook it: "Director Qi, you are fine."

Qi Lei chuckled: "Everything is fine, everything is fine."

Ling You also noticed that when he saw Qi Lei this time, he was different from the last time. This time, Qi Lei's back was straighter, and his demeanor and gestures were more generous and natural. He thought he had completely adapted to the provincial capital.

After playing a mysterious role, my complexion improved a lot.

So Qi Lei said: "Mayor Ling, come with me."

Ling You smiled and nodded: "Okay"

Then he turned back to Lao Yang and said, "Master Yang, we'll see you later."

Lao Yang looked at the two of them with a smile: "Okay, Mayor Ling, see you later."

Then he looked at Qi Lei and said, "See you later, Secretary Qi."

Qi Lei didn't say anything, smiled and waved his hand to him, then led Ling You towards the office building.

As Qi Lei walked away, he said: "The governor was in a meeting just now. I couldn't leave, so I asked you to wait for a while."

Ling You smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I have nothing urgent to do."

The two chatted for a while and then entered the building and went to Qin Songbai's office floor.

When he arrived at the office door, Qi Lei knocked carefully and heard Qin Songbai's majestic voice inside: "Come in."

When Qi Lei heard the sound, he opened the door and let Ling You out. Ling You smiled and nodded to Qi Lei before walking into the office.

"Governor."

Qin Songbai saw Ling You and chuckled: "It's a lot darker."

Ling You touched his face: "It's windy and sandy in the town, and the sun is bright." He really didn't notice how dark he was before. Today, after Lao Yang and Qin Songbai said this one after another, he realized that he might be

Really tanned.

Qin Songbai smiled and said: "The black spots are good, it looks much better than the childish look before."

As he said that, he walked out of the desk, pointed to the sofa with a cigarette in his hand: "Sit down and take a rest. You must have had a hard time on the road."

Ling You took a few steps towards the sofa, but did not sit down in a hurry: "Fortunately, this time I came by car from town."

After Qin Songbai also sat down, Qi Lei poured a glass of water for Ling You, said hello again, and turned to leave the office.

Seeing that there were only two people left in the office, Ling You also sat down.

Qin Songbai looked at Ling You and said, "It's hard to do grassroots work. You seem to have lost a lot of weight."

Ling You smiled and said: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, but it can still be overcome."

Qin Songbai then smiled and said: "I have a meeting in the afternoon, so don't be too pretentious and tell me directly that you have encountered any trouble."

Ling You thought to himself that Jiang was still too old and didn't even give himself a chance to lay the groundwork, so he smiled and said, "Well, since you ask that, I will speak directly."

Qin Songbai flicked the ashes of his cigarette and said, "If you don't tell me directly, you're going to make some detours with me."

Then he pointed at Ling You and said with a smile: "Anyway, it's no good."

Ling You chuckled and said two words directly: "I want money."

Qin Songbai was startled at first, then laughed loudly: "Grandpa Qin, you have said before that you are a straight-tempered boy who dares to say anything, but I didn't expect you to be so rude and asked you to say it straight. You didn't even bother to modify it."

No modification at all, it’s so simple and clear.”

Then he didn't waste any time and asked directly: "Why do you need money?"

Ling You sat up straighter and said, "Road repair, the roads in Liushan Town are too bad."

Qin Songbai asked: "For this trivial matter, you can just go to your county directly, why don't you come all the way to me just to talk about such a trivial matter?"

Ling You shook his head: "If you can ask the county for money, I certainly won't bother you."

Then he told Qin Songbai about the situation in the town one by one, took out the latest plan from his bag and showed it to Qin Songbai, and also explained Yan Qiushi's plan to invest in building a factory.

.

Qin Songbai looked at the plan in his hand and nodded: "Well, it shows that you have worked hard to implement things in such a short time."

Then he put down the plan and said: "I have also learned about the situation in your county, and I understand your difficulties. Don't worry, I will accept this matter. You go back and wait for news."
