Xiao Yao also said, "There is one more thing. The expert group from the trademark department has also finished the inspection and just left yesterday."

Huo Qianli hummed, "Professor Zhang called me. How was the examination?"

"It's OK. Except for the four companies that have not yet fully started production, six of the remaining eight companies have successfully passed the acceptance inspection, and only two failed."

Huo Qianli raised his eyebrows, "Did these two families cause any trouble?"

Xiao Yao smiled and said, "I heard that they wanted to make a scene, but they were persuaded to stop. I also talked to them and told them that this is not a one-time deal, so they should hurry up and make corrections. The expert group will come again next month to inspect the Wenxing Pharmaceuticals. We will go to them then."

The senior political and legal official laughed and said, "The fate of those people from Xingzhong Pharmaceutical is right before our eyes. Who dares to make trouble?"

Everyone laughed easily.

Huo Qianli also curled his lips, "Okay, let's have a meeting."

Following these words, everyone sat up straight as if a switch had been turned on, their smiles faded, and the atmosphere in the field suddenly became quiet.

After conveying the spirit of some superior documents and discussing some major events in the town, Huo Qianli flipped through two pages in his notebook and looked at a deputy mayor, "Comrade Yuanzheng, have you completed the plan for the rectification and renovation of the town's vegetable market that you are responsible for?"

The deputy mayor stammered, "Not yet. I'll urge the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to get them up as soon as possible."

Huo Qianli glanced at him and said, "Give me a specific time."

The deputy mayor hesitated and said, "Maybe before the Monday after next week."

Huo Qianli said, "Before next Monday. Is that okay?"

How can I say no... The deputy mayor muttered in his heart and nodded in agreement.

Huo Qianli made a note in his notebook, then looked up at the town's organization and propaganda committee member, "Comrade Fusheng, how is the arrangement of the new style and civilization propaganda in all villages in our town going?"

A middle-aged man scratched his head and said, "Secretary Huo, we are already working on it and it will be arranged soon."

Huo Qianli also spoke directly, "Tell me the time."

The middle-aged man recalled what happened to the deputy mayor just now and gritted his teeth, "Before this Friday."

Huo Qianli looked at him, "Wednesday."

The middle-aged man hesitated to speak, and finally nodded.

Huo Qianli looked at Gao Yuanming again, "Comrade Yuanming, at the meeting last Monday, you were in charge of the statistics of the veteran cadres. How is the situation going?"

Gao Yuanming was a little scared by today's situation. He wanted to say it was okay, but he really hadn't finished it yet, so he had to bite the bullet and said, "Secretary Huo, some of these old cadres have already moved away, and some don't have a phone number. It will take some time for us to contact them, as the workload is huge."

Huo Qianli frowned slightly, "When can it be done?"

Gao Yuanming felt a little unhappy. I am different from the others. I also have a full-time job. Isn't your tone a bit too much?

But he didn't have the courage to confront Huo Qianli, so he had to say, "Before next Friday."

Huo Qianli said directly: "Before work next Monday. Is that okay?"

Gao Yuanming hesitated for several seconds as to whether to object, but finally gave in and agreed.

Huo Qianli then talked about a few more things. After everything was arranged, he closed his notebook and asked, "Do you think I was too overbearing and impatient today?"

"No, no."

"No way, Secretary, you are responsible for your work!"

"Yes, we are somewhat slack in our work, so we need the secretary to push us more."

No matter what one thinks in one's heart, everyone has plenty of polite words to say.

Huo Qianli naturally saw through it, but he didn't point it out. He looked at everyone and smiled, "Everyone, please save some time for lunch tomorrow. I'll treat you all to a meal."

"Secretary, what's the good news?"

"That's right, just say it out loud so we can all be happy for you!"

"Nothing." Huo Qianli smiled and waved his hand. "I just saw everyone's work and simply wanted to treat everyone to a meal. Let's put it this way. See you in the parking lot downstairs at 11:40 tomorrow morning!"

With that, Huo Qianli packed up and left the meeting room. People also stood up in twos and threes and talked to each other.

"Do you know what's going on?"

"I haven't heard of it? Is it a birthday?"

"Go check Secretary Huo's resume, huh?"

"As for no?"

"You know nothing. If you don't understand, how do you know how much money you have to give? Do you really think you can get a free meal?"

......

While everyone was discussing this, Huo Qianli sat in his office and called Gao Qiang, the head of Zhuyang Village. "Old Gao, I'll bring some people to your place for dinner tomorrow."

"You don't need to prepare anything. I'll make arrangements when we get there. Just find a few people to lead the way."

"Yeah, okay, see you tomorrow."
