Chapter 432 It's not our fault...
Why did you choose a place like this?
Let's just find a place to talk, shall we?
"That's too expensive, County Magistrate!"
Old Wu smiled nervously, his whole body trembling with unease.
My mind kept replaying the things I had done during this period.
It seems that he did nothing to offend County Chief Chen.
But he still felt guilty.
Otherwise, in this situation, he could call him Dawei, and Dawei would call him Brother Cai in private.
David, with a cold expression, slightly raised his chin towards the seat opposite him, gesturing for him to sit down.
Wu Maocai pulled up his trousers, sat down seriously and hurriedly, put the teacup in front of him aside, and immediately opened his briefcase.
David's eyes followed his hand and landed on the briefcase.
"You don't need to take notes on tonight's conversation, and you can turn off your phone."
He could tell at a glance that Wu Maocai was about to take notes again.
David placed his two phones, one for daily use and one as a backup, on the table, both with their screens off, indicating that they were switched off.
Without the slightest hesitation, Wu Maocai took out his two Nokia phones from his bag and turned them off in front of Dawei.
My heart was pounding.
It's over.
Turning off your phone is no small matter.
After turning off his phone, Wu Maocai subconsciously wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The water in the kettle boiled again and again.
Dawei handed him a cigarette that Chen Shouren had given him; he wondered where Chen Shouren had gotten such a good cigarette.
The two of them just kept smoking.
Wu Maocai remained calm and didn't utter a sound.
Anyway, whether you stick your neck out or not, you'll get stabbed anyway.
Old Wu might as well make something of himself.
"Now, the political situation in our Yuanshan County is finally relatively clear..."
David finally spoke.
He is a good negotiator.
Many things are done at the table.
The silence before speaking is to exert maximum pressure on the other party.
Old Wu nodded quickly.
That's right.
To be honest, the current state of the Yuanshan County Party Committee and County Government is the best it has been in nearly ten years.
This is inseparable from the hard work and dedication of Secretary Zhikai and you.
The fruit industry company, the expressway project, the agricultural, cultural and tourism pilot project, the enterprise pollution rectification, the promotion of education reform, the development of social security, the development of agricultural insurance, etc., have all been handled very well.
The only thing that hasn't been decided yet is the highway project—but I think it's pretty much a done deal.
During the daytime.
Our office also received a letter from the Department of Transportation.
They said the Transportation Department would send a section chief to conduct an on-site investigation of our expressway project.
I'm currently preparing to organize the reception; I've already notified Director Huo of the Transportation Bureau.
Old Wu spoke with a serious expression.
There are priorities, and he knew in his heart that the expressway project was the most important.
If this can be accomplished during David's term, both David and he will become figures adorned with halos.
You can tell from Lao Wu's casual remarks that he is serious about his work and has a clear understanding of his tasks.
It's about flaunting one's own efforts.
It was also a way of seeking reconciliation with David, showing that even if he didn't achieve anything, he still put in the effort, paving the way for the conversation to follow.
David suddenly changed the subject.
"This situation is so good, it's hard-won, Brother Cai."
These words are impossible to guard against.
Old Wu's eyes widened slightly.
"Yes, yes, we should cherish it."
David nodded slowly: "Hmm..."
I need to reflect on my actions.
Lately, I haven't been strict enough with myself.
During that landslide, you protected my dignity, and I will remember your kindness.
Actually, it wasn't just that one time.
On several occasions, you were the one who saved my face.
They helped me a lot behind the scenes, and I know it all.
Perhaps it's because you spoil me too much that I often can't control myself.
I thought, with Cai-ge here, there won't be any problems; you'll handle everything for me.
Before criticizing others, criticize yourself first.
This is David's negotiation philosophy.
Wu Maocai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Dawei had gotten into some trouble again.
I asked him out tonight so he could handle the aftermath.
A smile immediately appeared on his face.
"This is all I should do."
Why say all this?
You are the leader, and I am your subordinate.
Putting that aside, you'll still call me Brother Cai, won't you?
I'm very clear about my role: I'm here to assist you.
David almost couldn't bear to continue.
In a way, Cai Ge is also a pitiful person.
His wife isn't very attractive, but she's quite assertive and has a stronger family background than Cai Ge.
He's now considered a powerful and influential person in the county.
It's inevitable that your mouth will occasionally taste fishy.
But since I've already promised my sister-in-law, I have to put some pressure on Wu Maocai and get a guarantee.
Otherwise, four people would be injured: his sister-in-law, Cai Ge, Dawei, and that mistress.
In comparison, it would be more appropriate to injure Cai Ge and his mistress.
Dawei sighed softly and put down his teacup. "Brother Cai, just tell me, who is that woman outside?"
Wu Maocai's body swayed slightly, and his face turned deathly pale: "Wh-what..."
David remained silent, waiting for him to speak.
The fact that I said those words shows that I respect Dawei.
Wu Maocai immediately recalled the incident last night when Qin Hongmei rushed into the bathroom while he was taking a shower.
Damn woman.
This is to complain to County Chief Chen!
"Yes, it's Lian, the women's director from Zhonghai Village..."
Wu Maocai confessed directly.
"Sigh..." David sighed deeply, "How long has it been?"
"Not long after, we only spent a few times together..." Wu Maocai swallowed, feeling embarrassed: "I did something for her."
To thank me, she did this last night...
She ran downstairs to my house.
I drove to the parking lot next to the Hot Water River and briefly stopped by the car.
I'm so nervous.
It's dark.
The pants weren't on properly.
She'll have something on him when we get back.
My fault…
David lay face down, scratched his brow with his fingers, and almost laughed.
Really...
"Is it beautiful?"
You are not a frivolous person.
He has always been mature and steady in handling matters.
Why am I so flustered when I meet this woman?
Dawei had no impression of this Director Alian.
The village women's director isn't high enough in rank to have any connection with Dawei.
Seeing that Dawei didn't scold him much, Wu Maocai felt a little relieved, lit a cigarette, and reminisced...
"It's not that it's pretty."
She had the charm of a young married woman, with bright, sparkling eyes.
Moreover, it was through her that I truly understood what it means for a woman to be like water...
It's really getting out of control.
County magistrate.
I had drunk some rice wine at the time.
We drank it at the village party secretary's house.
She came into my room by herself.
It wasn't my initiative at first.
Who can withstand this?
At this point, he decided to go all out.
Let's drag someone down with us.
When two people make a mistake, the punishment is less severe.
The law does not punish the masses.
"Don't talk about me."
Isn't Executive Director Liu a more honest and experienced person?
He was the same.
Those two women in Zhonghai Village, they're best friends...
too……
It's not our fault...
