Chapter 208: Thinking of a Way

cretary personally came out to greet them! Director Liu, what kind of background does he have' This was an exploratory question. Xiao Zheng replied: 'I don't really know about that, I'm just familiar...The next morning, Xiao Zheng and Chen Hong came from the new house early to accompany Xiao Rongrong and Fei Qingmei for a buffet breakfast at the hotel. 。Looking at all the food in the buffet, with bread, bacon, fruits, eggs, roast duck, noodles, wontons, noodle soup, as well as wine and beer, Fei Qingmei sighed: "So many things, how much would it cost to eat a meal We'd better not eat here. Let's go to the street outside for a bowl of noodles, that will solve the problem." 。"We shouldn't waste so much, with so many different kinds of food. We can just go eat somewhere outside and fill our stomachs." 。There is no doubt that both people want to save money. 。Chen Hong smiled and said: "Dad, Mom, just relax and eat. The rent includes breakfast, it's free." 。Xiao Rongrong and Fei Qingmei were still hearing Chen Hong calling them "Dad and Mom" for the first time. 。Fei Qingmei smiled after hearing this: "Ai, Chen Hong is really obedient." 。"Here we eat breakfast, it's really free" Chen Hong smiled and nodded: "It's really free." 。Xiao Rongrong said: "That's good, we can eat with our bellies open. I want two bowls of noodles." 。"Chen Hong said, “Dad, you can try some barbecue, cake, and fruit first. If you eat noodles first, you won't be able to eat anything else." 。Xiaorong thought: “Right, pour myself a glass of red wine first and eat slowly.” 。Fei Qingmei elbowed Xiao Rongrong: "Money, give me the money." 。Xiao Rongrong frowned: "What money Didn't we say it was free" Fei Qingmei said: "I'm not talking about that money, Chen Hong called us 'Dad' and 'Mom' on the first day. Don't you want to show some respect!" This time Xiao Rongrong realized that there was a rule in rural areas, when a daughter-in-law officially calls her in-laws "Dad" and "Mom", she should give red envelopes. However, Xiao Rongrong had forgotten about it. 。hurriedly reached into his pocket to get some money, Chen Hong immediately stopped him and said: "Dad, Mom, we don't do that. " 。I call you "dad" and "mom" sincerely. There's no need for red envelopes, we're all family now. It's a bother to keep giving and receiving them. 。Besides, I want to tell Mom and Dad that we've been living together. 。"Xiao Rongrong and Fei Qingmei turned to Xiao Zheng, thinking to themselves, 'Our son is really amazing. He hasn't even gotten married yet, and people already consider him someone else's.'" 。Fei Qingmei smiled and said, "Living together is good, living together is good, that way we can have grandchildren sooner." 。You are all at the age of marriage and childbearing, have children early to gain strength. 。"Dad, Mom, you guys should eat breakfast first. You must be hungry. We can talk about other things later." 。Xiao Rongrong and Fei Qingmei also knew they had talked too much. Knowing that the mayor's son was usually very busy, they said: "That's good, let's have breakfast." 。After breakfast, Xiao Zheng had the driver send his parents back to the village. 。On the way back to town, Xiao Zheng received a call from Zhao Junjie, a high school classmate who was now a junior reporter for Hangzhou Daily: "Hello, Mayor Xiao, I'm Zhao Junjie." 。"Zhao Junjie speaks very formally. Xiao Zheng said, “It's Junjie! We are old classmates, so just call me Xiao Zheng, no need for 'Mayor Xiao.'" 。“Zhao Junjie said, 'How can that be You're the first town chief our class has ever had! Just let me call you 'Town Chief Xiao,' it brings honor to me!'” 。 。Xiao Zheng still remembered how Zhao Junjie had flaunted himself in front of him at the supermarket that day. Since Xiao Zheng knew he was the town chief and had a dedicated car, Zhao Junjie's attitude towards him changed completely, calling him "Town Chief" all the time. 。Xiao Zheng didn't bother arguing with Zhao Junjie. If he wanted to call him "Mayor Xiao," let him. 。Xiao Zheng said: "Junjie, if you have time, you can come to Tianhuang Town and have a look." 。Last time, Zhao Junjie said he wanted to come to Tianhuang Town. Xiao Zheng thought that instead of making other demands of himself, it would be better to invite him proactively and give him face. 。Zhao Junjie, upon hearing this, was indeed delighted: "That's wonderful! I'll come over tomorrow." 。"Xiao Zheng said, "Alright, I'll wait for you in town tomorrow." 。Zhao Junjie is a reporter for the Hangzhou Daily. Tianhuang Town is carrying out "Beautiful Rural Construction," and this is just the time to strengthen publicity. The Hangzhou Daily is a provincial newspaper, although it's not as formal as the Jiangzhong Daily, its circulation is very good, and many people read it. It's perfect for publicity. 。For this, Xiao Zheng believed that there would definitely be times when he would need Zhao Junjie. 。The next day, Xiao Zheng waited for Zhao Junjie in town. It wasn't until lunchtime that Zhao Junjie arrived driving his small Buick. 。Xiao Zheng then took him to the canteen for lunch, accompanied by Tao Fang, director of the General Office. 。Seeing Tao Fang, a woman with a curvaceous figure, who was well-dressed and articulate, "Mayor Xiao before Mayor Xiao after" circled around Xiao Zheng, inquiring about his needs and constantly offering tea and water. Zhao Junjie was truly envious. 。Unfortunately, Zhao Junjie didn't get to drink during lunchtime today. 。Zhao Junjie knew that now government agencies would start to become listless after noon, some leaders loved alcohol and treated drinking as their main battlefield. After the meeting, they would go straight to the drinking place and have a great time in both settings. 。Zhao Junjie felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Did Xiao Zheng look down on him and that's why he didn't drink However, Xiao Zheng seemed to have seen through his thoughts and said to him: "I'll take you up the mountain later to see the beautiful scenery of An County, so I won't drink at noon." 。Tonight we went to the county, I treated you to a drink. 。"Hearing that there was a gathering in the evening, Zhao Junjie finally felt happy inside. He became more spirited and said: “Drinking is no big deal, I really want to run around Tianhuang Town. If I can help promote Tianhuang Town, that would be great too.” 。。Zhao Junjie was also quite shocked by the scenery before him. While he took out his camera, he shot and said: "This is a really good place. Now that the mine has stopped operating, if this beautiful scenery could be promoted, Tianhuang Town would definitely attract large groups of people from the coastal cities like Tianjin and Hangzhou to come here for sightseeing." 。Mayor Xiao, if you let me handle the publicity for Tianhuang Town, I guarantee that we'll make it famous throughout all of China. 。Upon hearing Zhao Junjie's words, Xiao Zheng finally became more cautious. 。He wouldn't be naive enough to think that Zhao Junjie would promote Tianhuang Town for free, it doesn't exist. 。As the saying goes, there's no such thing as a free lunch. Zhao Junjie traveled all the way from Hangzhou, it's impossible for him to do propaganda for grassroots organizations for free, he must be charging money. 。Currently, the Tianhuang Town government is facing financial difficulties and needs to carefully manage its spending. 。Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "It's certainly a good thing to have talented people help with the publicity." 。Ke Xiaozheng remained silent about money. 。By the time they came down from the mountain, it was already late. Xiao Zheng invited Zhao Junjie to have a meal together in the county town. 。Xiao Zheng arranged dinner at a small restaurant very close to Mingyue Jiangnan Apartment complex. He didn't arrange it at a large hotel, but there were plenty of dishes and enough alcohol. 。Xiao Zheng's principle is that he doesn't hold grand banquets, but also ensures that guests can eat and drink their fill. 。In the evening, Xiao Zheng also asked Li Haiyan if she was free to have a meal together. 。Li Haiyan said she could arrive later. 。Xiao Zheng and Zhao Junjie started eating first. Li Haiyan really arrived around 7:30. 。After learning that Li Haiyan was the secretary to the county Party Secretary, Zhao Junjie felt a surge of respect for her. 。What's more, Li Haiyan calling Xiao Zheng "Master" makes Zhao Junjie think that Xiao Zheng is extraordinary. 。He didn't expect that Xiao Zheng had already planted his roots so deeply in the county town. 。When the wine had reached about seven or eight parts full, Zhao Junjie again brought up the matter of helping Tianhuang Town with publicity. 。Li Haiyan then helped to ask, "Zhao reporter, your Hangcheng Daily must charge for helping with the publicity, right"

Zhao Junjie thought for a moment. He guessed that Xiao Zheng, being so young as the town head, must want achievements. If the publicity was done well, Tianhuang Town would become popular, which would be a great achievement. 。So, this publicity, Xiao Zheng will definitely do it. 。Zhao Junjie boldly opened his mouth and said, “200,000 yuan, I can promote Tianhuang Town so that the entire Hangzhou will know about it.” 。"Twenty million It's nothing compared to the boom times of Tianhuang Town during the mining era, but for today's Tianhuang Town, it's a truly substantial sum." 。

A staff member of Tiangu Town has nearly a hundred people, and their monthly salary is just hundreds of thousands. 。The other day, Xiao Zheng went to check the town's finances and found that there was only enough money left to pay one month's worth of salaries. If no more income comes in, next month's salaries will not be able to be paid. 。Everyone is saying, "We can't even afford to eat anymore," "we can't even afford food." 。Fiscal revenue is the biggest issue right now. If he took out 200,000 to do publicity now, it would definitely be opposed by the members of the team. 。In Xiao Zheng's view, the best-case scenario would be to not spend any of the town's money and have Zhao Junjie help with the publicity. 。So, when Zhao Junjie brought up money, Xiao Zheng changed the subject and said: "Come on, come on, are we friends meeting We won't talk about work tonight, let's have some drinks!" 。Li Haiyan's alcohol tolerance is also good. She could tell that Xiao Zheng didn't want to talk about advertising fees today, but she couldn't refuse Zhao Junjie helping them with publicity, so Li Haiyan helped toast Zhao Junjie, and Zhao Junjie actually got drunk. 。Xiao Zheng settled Zhao Junjie in a small hotel and then walked back with Li Haiyan. 。Li Haiyan said, "Master, you really need to do some publicity now. You have to get people from big cities to come to the town and play. Only then will the town have vibrancy, and the tertiary industry can develop." 。"Xiao Zheng said: 'He quoted 200,000 yuan, the advertising fee is too high! The town's economy is very difficult now.'" 。"Li Haiyan said, “Recently, the town is probably facing this kind of difficult situation. But publicity can't be done!"

Xiao Zheng said, "I have to think of a way to get him to help us do the publicity for free." 。"Li Haiyan stopped in her tracks, looking at Xiao Zheng in astonishment. "Master, are you pulling my leg Now that newspapers are doing publicity for you, wouldn't they charge money Don't even talk about provincial papers like the Hangzhou Daily, even a city paper like the Jingzhou Daily would charge tens of thousands to run a page for you!" 。"Xiao Zheng smiled, "I really want Zhao Junjie to do free advertising for us! If I succeed, what should I do"

Li Haiyan's eyes were smiling, "Do whatever you want!" The night draped people in a hazy beauty, making Li Haiyan appear particularly pretty. 。

This is not the first time Li Haiyan has said this, do whatever you want. 。Kao Xiaozheng never dared to think about what to do if he couldn't handle it. 。When a woman says this to you, especially someone as smart and beautiful as Li Haiyan, it would be too fake not to be moved. 。

However, Xiao Zheng still knew his own limitations. He was clear about what he could and couldn't do. 。This is different from how Xiao Zheng and other young officials who are favored by the spring breeze usually behave. After all, he has been suppressed by Song Guoming for five or six years. 。Over the past five or six years, he has experienced the warmth and coldness of the world, which has also made him cherish his current position even more. 。Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "If I win, then I'll shave your nose!"ction. 。However, by this time, there was still no sign of the 108th Company's return. 。Perhaps, coming from the Tiankeng side wouldn't be this fast. 。Yu Dong said, "He should be back by now. Coming...
