Huo Qianli was still confused until Mr. Cai left at night.

I didn't expect that this matter would be resolved in such an unexpected way at this time.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that the two of them have finalized the matter.

The two have only reached a preliminary agreement, and each still has procedures to go through. The real confirmation still has to come from the final signed contract.

The next morning, with people in a state of uncertainty, the meeting that many people had been looking forward to all night was convened as soon as work started.

In the eyes of everyone, this is a great thing.

First, Secretary Huo is indeed considerate of everyone. He knows that if this matter today doesn't come to a conclusion, everyone will be restless at work and lose their focus on work.

Secondly, the fact that the meeting could be held so early showed that Secretary Huo had already reached a preliminary conclusion.

From any perspective, it is worth being happy about.

At this point, no one thought that the meetings the day before yesterday, the meetings yesterday, and the daily meetings were annoying. They quietly arranged the tasks at hand and came to the meeting room in twos and threes.

When Huo Qianli emerged from the stairwell, everyone sat down in their seats.

Huo Qianli sat down, opened his notebook, and looked around. "Let's not waste any more time talking nonsense. Everyone has been thinking about yesterday's events all night, and everyone should have some ideas. Let's discuss it."

The crowd did not delay, and some people wanted to speak directly, but Cao Qingfeng suddenly spoke first: "Secretary Huo, what do you think?"

Everyone was stunned and looked at Huo Qianli.

Huo Qianli smiled slightly, "Let's listen to everyone's opinions first. We don't have a one-man show, and there's no such thing as being punished for speaking out. Just let everyone speak freely."

After last night's bizarre stories, all the doubts and worries in his heart disappeared, and he even felt a little more relaxed and light-hearted.

This was exactly what Cao Qingfeng wanted to hear. After hearing it, he nodded without saying anything.

A deputy mayor who was ranked lower in the list once again "took the lead" and said, "I don't think there is anything to discuss about this matter. Mr. Yang has given us such good conditions, and we have no reason to refuse."

"Indeed, it was originally only 20 or 30 million, but the other party offered 200 or 300 million. If I don't take it, I'm afraid I'll regret it for the rest of my life! Haha!"

"Yes, if an investment of two or three hundred million really falls into our town, it will be a great political achievement."

Everyone spoke one after another, and as expected, they all agreed.

This time, Huo Qianli did not wait for everyone to finish speaking before making his final statement. He interrupted directly and said, "I was thinking about a question yesterday."

He looked at the curious looks from everyone and said, "So, why do we want to set up this parent-child study base?"

Many people in the room looked at each other in bewilderment. Wasn't this the idea you came up with? Now you're asking us?

Huo Qianli was about to explain when Cao Qingfeng suddenly said, "Secretary Huo, do you mean that we should not build this base just for the sake of building it, but we should think clearly about the purpose of building this base. Although the conditions given by President Yang are good, we should think clearly whether they can achieve our original purpose?"

Huo Qianli's eyes flashed with undisguised surprise and appreciation.

The reason why he didn't hide it was because he really didn't check with Cao Qingfeng in advance;

It was easy to be surprised and admire him. He originally thought that Cao Qingfeng was also overwhelmed by Mr. Yang's conditions. It seems that having been a secretary to a big boss does have his strengths!

He nodded. "Yes, that's what I mean. We originally chose to promote the parent-child study base project because the Salvia miltiorrhiza Industrial Park in Hushan Village has reached a bottleneck. At the same time, the Salvia miltiorrhiza Industrial Park is difficult to drive the economic development of other villages in the town. So we tried to break the deadlock with this parent-child study base. But if this base is built but cannot achieve the original intention, then it would be a waste of time and effort."

Everyone felt a pang in their hearts when they heard this chorus. It sounded like these two had reached some shameful tacit understanding again?

And, it seems like I still have to refuse?

Talking about politics is essentially talking about personnel. When some bad news came out from the top leaders, everyone present became cautious.

But the temptation is so great that no one will give up because of such an ambiguous statement.

Someone immediately expressed his opinion, "Mr. Yang's investment is also in accordance with our plan. It will not affect our goals, right?"

A voice pondered, "But from what Mr. Yang said yesterday, it sounded like he wanted to build high-quality homestays and entertainment facilities to create a model for parent-child travel. He didn't really mention the various industry linkages we envisioned."

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person who spoke was Xiao Yao, the first-ranked deputy mayor.

Xiao Yao faced everyone's gaze calmly. He really didn't know what Huo Qianli was thinking, nor did he know whether Huo Qianli had any private communication with Cao Qingfeng. But he was clear about one thing, that he was indeed not as thorough as Huo Qianli in considering things, and he should fully support Huo Qianli's decision, at least in public.

At the same time, Huo Qianli's words did give him some inspiration.

So he spoke.

Amid the more suspicious eyes of the people around him, Huo Qianli smiled and said, "If I say that I have not communicated privately with Mayor Cao and Mayor Xiao, will you believe it?"

Everyone thought about it and decided that no matter whether it was true or not, at least Secretary Huo was willing to explain, which at least saved everyone some face, and they felt better.

Deputy Mayor Xu Yuanzheng personally oversaw the development of Zhuyang Village and devoted a lot of effort to it. He pondered Xiao Yao's words and realized something was wrong. "Mayor Xiao is right. I don't think Mr. Yang will necessarily follow the plan we designed."
