Guangyun in January was obviously a very chilly season, but when Meng Jinxing stepped out of the office building, he clearly felt a rare and warm comfort.

The conversation with Su Bingchang gave him full confidence in his future work.

Jiang Yiwen was waiting in the parking lot. When he saw him coming out, he immediately got out of the car and opened the door for him and waited for him to get in.

"The dormitory has been arranged. The municipal dormitory is located on the edge of Lingjiang River. It is quiet in the bustle and the size is suitable. Your lover can come over for reunion at any time." Jiang Yiwen said while driving, "I will send you there first to take a look.

"

"There's no rush." ​​Meng Jinxing said, "Let's just go down to each district and take a look around."

"This..." Jiang Yiwen hesitated and said, "Do you remember the reception banquet tonight, right?"

"I just told Secretary Bingchang that Guangyun is in a special period now, so we should save money on these red tapes!"

"Then I can drive as I please?"

"Um."

Jiang Yiwen did a lot of homework before coming to Guangyun. Now he said he was just wandering around, but in fact he had a purpose. He drove the car to the central square with the most people in Guangyun, found a parking space, parked the car and asked Meng Jin

OK’s opinion, “Shall I get off the car with you and take a walk?”

Meng Jinxing nodded happily, and the two got out of the car and walked away happily.

Since it is called the Central Square, as the name suggests, this square is located in the center of Guangyun and occupies an absolute geographical advantage. It should be the most prosperous area in Guangyun.

But what Meng Jinxing and Jiang Yiwen saw was not like that.

The large fountain in the center of the circular square was left unattended. There was not a drop of water in the fountain pool. Dust, garbage, and leaves were all over the pool. The fountain supports were so rusty that they seemed to collapse with just a single touch.

There are four roads along the southeast, northwest and central axis of the circular square, connecting one-story commercial buildings spread out in an arc. The loudspeakers scream and introduce the products in their respective stores, competing with each other in the sky.

There was a noisy and chaotic atmosphere, which made Meng Jinxing frown.

He and Jiang Yiwen walked slowly along the road due south, and at a glance they saw a tall building behind the curved commercial building. The huge frame building was exposed in the cold wind in the evening, like a large-scale building with a bloody mouth.

The monster looks down at everyone who passes by its feet.

"This unfinished building was invested by Indonesians. The main body just hit the Asian financial crisis, and the Indonesians disappeared!" Jiang Yiwen reported to Meng Jinxing in a low voice, "I have pity on the owners who bought the houses.

, I can’t get the money back, and I can’t get the house, I really feel like crying without tears.”

Meng Jinxing stopped and took out a cigarette from his trouser pocket and handed one to Jiang Yiwen. Jiang Yiwen quickly took out a lighter and helped Meng Jinxing light the fire first, while he put the cigarette to his ear and did not smoke.

While doing these actions, his mouth was not idle, and he continued to introduce to Meng Jinxing, "The initial inducement for this major adjustment in Guangyun was that the owner of this building had failed to communicate with the city government many times. Through various

I sued some cadres through the channels, but I didn’t expect that the situation would eventually get out of hand.”

Meng Jinxing nodded slightly, puffing on his cigarette, his eyes never leaving the building.

"Just before we came, Mayor Deng decided that this building and this circle of commercial buildings," Jiang Yiwen raised his arm and pointed a finger at the surrounding buildings, "were all sold together.

Zhengyuan Group.”

"Zhengyuan Group?" Meng Jinxing looked at Jiang Yiwen and asked.

Jiang Yiwen nodded and smiled: "You should be familiar with them. This is a company from Guangfeng."

Meng Jinxing immediately asked: "Brothers Long?"

"Yes, that's them." Jiang Yiwen said, "Due to the mining and power plant establishment, the Zhengyuan Group controlled by the Long brothers rose rapidly in a short period of time, and its business quickly expanded out of Guangfeng and towards Dujiang, which looked very menacing.

"

Meng Jinxing's sword eyebrows were lightly frowned, and the ashes of the cigarette had been hanging on his fingers for a while, but he didn't notice it at all.

He is quite familiar with the situation of the Long brothers. Zhengyuan's rapid rise is ultimately due to the fact that Wu Yaqin provided help to Long San in order to save Ma Min.

He recalled what Wu Yaqin said to him when the dust settled on the restructuring of Zhengyuan Mine. She said that Long San was very dangerous.

Meng Jinxing couldn't help but raise his head and look at the building shrouded in dusk. He felt that the whole building was gray and gloomy, which made him feel a lot of depression for no reason.

"Who among the Long brothers is handling this?" he asked.

"The headquarters of Zhengyuan Group has been moved to Dujiang. Long San personally discussed the matters here with Mayor Deng."

Meng Jinxing was a little surprised. Long San's Zhengyuan Group seemed to have grown not only in business, but also in official circles!

He suddenly frowned, looked at the fingers of his right hand, threw away the cigarette butt, raised his hand to his mouth and blew on it, when his eyes unexpectedly saw a somewhat familiar figure.

"Li Nan?"

Li Nan, who was still dressed simply with a ponytail, turned around when he heard this and saw Meng Jinxing and Jiang Yiwen at a glance. He immediately held the camera with one hand and pulled the bag on his shoulder with the other hand, and walked over quickly, "You guys

It’s here too!”

"Are you here for an interview?" Meng Jinxing glanced at the camera in Li Nan's hand.

"Yeah, let me come over first to take a look at the tasks assigned by the station." Li Nan noticed his gaze and shook the camera, "You have taken office?"

Meng Jinxing nodded and said, "I just arrived today."

"Me too."

Li Nan answered, and the two suddenly fell silent.

Jiang Yiwen broke the silence, "Boss, it's getting late. It's better to meet by chance than to invite me. Why don't we have a casual meal with Reporter Li?"

Meng Jinxing looked at Li Nan and asked, "Is it convenient?"

"Okay, I have to find a place to eat anyway." Li Nan said, covering the camera lens, putting the camera into the camera bag, and smiled at Meng Jinxing, "Let's go, Mayor!"

The three of them chose a small restaurant nearby, ordered four dishes and one soup, and talked while eating.

"...Are you going to publicize Zhengyuan Group's contribution to the local economy?" Meng Jinxing asked after listening to Li Nan's mission.

It stands to reason that since Meng Jinxing has taken office, such publicity and reporting work should be arranged by Guangyun, but Deng Kun directly asked Dujiang TV Station to carry out the publicity and reporting work without even saying hello. What is his real intention?

"Not necessarily." Li Nan shook his head, frowned slightly and glanced at Meng Jinxing, who was lighting a cigarette, and replied, "What you are talking about is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is to eliminate the bad impression this project has left on the provincial party committee.

"

"Provincial Party Committee?" Meng Jinxing took a puff of cigarette and looked at Li Nan in confusion.

"Secretary Liu inspected this project on his first day in Southwest China, didn't you know?" Li Nan asked.

Meng Jinxing shook his head. He had indeed never heard of this. He only knew that Liu Zhan did not arrive at Dujiang as scheduled on the day he took office. It seemed that he arrived at Guangyun first.

He was secretly surprised, this was so contrary to common sense.

Seeing that he really didn't know, Li Nan said: "Secretary Liu was very angry at the time and believed that the Guangyun Municipal Government neither properly controlled the investment promotion nor handled the problematic projects in a timely manner, which resulted in many social problems in Guangyun."

Meng Jinxing vaguely felt that before arriving in Guangyun, Liu Zhan had already figured out how to make a fuss about this unfinished building!

The three of them ate and talked, and time passed quickly. Li Nan ate less and talked more, Meng Jinxing spent most of the time smoking, but Jiang Yiwen ate a lot while listening.

After leaving the restaurant, Meng Jinxing helped Li Nan carry the camera bag. After paying the bill, Jiang Yiwen caught up and quickly took the bag and carried it for Li Nan.

"Where do you live? We will send you there." Meng Jinxing stood at the door and said to Li Nan.

"No, it's only ten minutes' walk from here to the Guangyun Hotel where I live, so I'll just take a walk after dinner." Li Nan smiled and took the bag from Jiang Yiwen's hand, "Thank you for the dinner."

Just as Meng Jinxing was about to nod and say goodbye, two tattooed young men riding bicycles in the square raced towards Li Nan. He quickly pulled Li Nan over with his quick eyesight, and the two young men roared past them on their bicycles.

Afterwards, one of them turned around and blew a loud whistle, and then added in an airy voice from a distance: "Brother, he's very skilled!"

"Are you okay?" Meng Jinxing had no time to pay attention to the two gangsters and said without any doubt, "We will send you off!"

Except for the time when she was raped by Mu Xiaotian after drinking, Li Nan once showed the usual helplessness of a girl. In most cases, she is an independent and strong person, and she does not think that the possible collision just happened is a big deal.

.

However, she was a girl in her early twenties after all. Meng Jinxing's natural protection and vague domineering tone made her enjoy the feeling of being cared for and couldn't help but nod in agreement.

So, Meng Jinxing walked side by side with her, and Jiang Yiwen followed them about two meters behind them, just enough not to hear their voices, but not to keep them out of his sight.

After sending Li Nan to the hotel safely, Meng Jinxing and Jiang Yiwen returned the same way.

…

Long San is currently treating Secretary Liu of the Provincial Party Committee to dinner at Shen Hantao's Guose.

The Diamond Hall on the top floor is never open to the public. All the curtains are opened, and the night view of Dujiang is unobstructed outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Liu Zhan and Long San were sitting by the window, cigar smoke surrounding them.

If Meng Jinxing were here right now, he would definitely find it hard to believe that the middle-aged man in front of him, wearing the world's top brands, is the same Long San who looked groveling like a country bumpkin in his office in Guangfeng back then!

After enjoying the fragrance of the cigar, Liu Zhan raised his palms with satisfaction, combed his hair close to his ears and past his temples, combing his meticulous back hair.

"We must hurry up with demolition. I hope this project will bear fruit within one year!" Liu Zhan said steadily.

"Secretary Liu can rest assured about the demolition!" Long San poured a cup of tea for Liu Zhan, "But if you put Meng Jinxing in Guangyun, you won't worry that he will trip me up?"

"Are you seeking peace or anger when doing business?" Liu Zhan glanced dissatisfiedly, "Meng Jinxing is one of my fierce generals. You should think about how to repair the relationship with him and don't overstep the mark!"
