Civil Service Exam by Luck: From Being Abandoned by My Girlfriend to the Pinnacle of Power

“What if I ranked fifth in the written exam? I got in by sheer luck. From a staff member in the government office to a leader’s secretary—on the day my ex-girlfriend begged me to get back together,...

Chapter 701 Please excuse my poor attempt (2/2)

As Wang Yonghua spoke, he took out a list and handed it to Chen Guangda: "Mr. Chen, this is our machinery list. You can take a look first. If it's on the list, our company has it and can deliver it anytime."

Chen Guangda flipped through the list, feeling a little puzzled. Was it really necessary to be so serious about this formality?

"Mr. Wang, you were introduced by Mayor Li, how could I not trust you? Just give me a price." Chen Guangda probed again.

Wang Yonghua shook his head: "President Chen, it is precisely because of Mayor Li's introduction that I hope we can be more professional and serious. I don't want to embarrass Mayor Li. Mayor Li is willing to introduce me, which means he thinks highly of me. I should make Mayor Li proud."

After listening to Wang Yonghua's words, Chen Guangda understood somewhat. He realized that he had misunderstood. Wang Yonghua was not someone Li Xiuyuan had asked to transfer benefits to him; he genuinely wanted to do the project.

“Okay, I’ll take a good look at it later. The specific construction plan for the second phase of the project hasn’t been released yet, but there will definitely be places where construction machinery will be needed, so I’ll be troubling you a lot, Mr. Wang,” Chen Guangda said with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll wait."

"By the way, Mr. Wang and Mayor Li should be quite familiar with each other. Could you tell me about the first phase of the project? I haven't had any contact with Mayor Li before, so I'm a bit unsure about it," Chen Guangda said with a smile.

Upon hearing Chen Guangda's words, Wang Yonghua immediately understood what he meant. He guessed that Chen Guangda was thinking about giving Li Xiuyuan a gift, just like he had back then, not knowing how much Li Xiuyuan had to offer.

It turned out that after getting to know him, they discovered that Li Xiuyuan didn't need this at all.

“President Chen, I understand what you mean, but I can only share my experience,” Wang Yonghua said. He had given a gift, but Li Xiuyuan hadn’t accepted it. However, he couldn’t make the decision for Li Xiuyuan on his own, so he told Chen Guangda not to give it to him.

To put it simply, just so Chen Guangda has a general idea.

Just as the two were chatting, Li Xiuyuan came out of his office and went to Su Ziying's dormitory. He chatted casually with Su Ziying, leaving the time for Wang Yonghua and Chen Guangda.

"I think the second phase of the project is about to begin?" Su Ziying asked Li Xiuyuan.

Li Xiuyuan nodded: "Yes, it'll be soon. The start date has been set for the end of this month. The village will be lively again then."

"It's great to see this happening. I'm really looking forward to the day you described coming true," Su Ziying said with a smile to Li Xiuyuan.

As the two were talking, there was a knock on the door.

"Teacher Su, I saw the cafeteria is cooking. They bought a lot of food. We're in for a treat tonight!" Xiao Rui knocked on the door and came in. He was immediately embarrassed to find Li Xiuyuan there as well.

"Mayor Li."

"Hmm, Teacher Xiao, are you hungry after a long day of teaching?" Li Xiuyuan asked with a smile. Xiao Rui was a pretty good young man, down-to-earth and idealistic, but he was a bit greedy and had a low alcohol tolerance.

Xiao Rui gave an awkward smile: "Mayor Li, I... I'm sorry you had to see this."

"Haha, it's alright. The second phase of the project will start soon, and there will be plenty of pig slaughtering and feasting. Teacher Xiao, eat as much as you like." Li Xiuyuan said with a hearty laugh.
