Tang Xiaobao chatted with Lu Hua and his wife.

He is so famous now that Lu Hua and his wife also know him and respect him very much.

Hearing that Chen Mengyao and Tang Xiaobao were going to have dinner with the children here, Lu Hua and his wife nodded in agreement. As everyone was chatting, the old man guarding the door suddenly ran in: "President Lu, Secretary Peng of the Municipal Party Committee has brought people to express his condolences."

"What?" Lü Hua was stunned, a little disbelieving his ears. He asked with a stern face, "Are you saying Secretary Peng brought people to express his condolences?"

"Yes, there's also a cart of rice, oil, some milk, clothes and other things in the yard."

"Let's go and take a look." Lu Hua laughed: "They are rare guests."

Everyone came down from upstairs. A group of children were being hugged by a group of government workers, and some people were moving things.

Oil, flour, rice, quilts, milk, clothes...

There are a lot of things.

Secretary Peng of the Municipal Party Committee and a group of government officials were also involved, and Tang Xiaobao saw an acquaintance.

Wei Donglai.

Immediately, Tang Xiaobao understood something.

According to Mr. Lu, these officials rarely come here normally, and the reason they are here today is mostly because of Tang Xiaobao.

Last night, Tang Xiaobao told Wei Donglai that he and Shen Mengyao would come to the welfare home to celebrate the New Year. It must have been Wei Donglai's idea.

Wei Donglai winked at Tang Xiaobao.

"Oh, so Mr. Tang and Mr. Shen are here too. What a coincidence." Secretary Peng came over and shook hands with the two.

Wei Donglai also stepped forward to shake hands with Tang Xiaobao, winking and saying, "Xiaobao, what a coincidence."

Tang Xiaobao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Uncle Wei is so thoughtful."

"This is what we should do." Wei Donglai said with a smile, and then whispered to Tang Xiaobao: "It's always a good thing to take this opportunity to let everyone come out and exercise."

Tang Xiaobao understood and nodded, but didn't say anything.

Regardless of whether these people are here for show or to express their genuine condolences, the welfare home will really benefit from it, and this is very important.

Tang Xiaobao's heart moved...

Everyone pitched in and finished moving everything quickly.

Seven or eight senior government officials were invited by Mr. Lu into the reception room, which was actually a converted conference room with several old sofas and an old TV.

Everyone sat down and Tian Hong was busy pouring water.

Secretary Peng asked Mr. Lu, "President Lu, we are going to have lunch here today and celebrate the New Year with the children."

"Ah, but we are not prepared." Mr. Lu frowned.

"What are you preparing? We will eat whatever you eat. By the way, do you remember that there should be other staff members here? Have they all been released?" Secretary Peng asked.

Old Master Lu said, "Yes, it's Chinese New Year, so we let them go home to celebrate. So, we cooked lunch ourselves. Luckily, we prepared it in advance yesterday, so it wasn't a big deal."

"It's okay. I have people here, you can requisition them at will. If you can't do that, I'll go into the kitchen." Secretary Peng laughed heartily: "Don't underestimate me. I can still cook."

Among the cadres behind Secretary Peng, there were two women in their forties who volunteered to help in the kitchen, and Secretary Peng agreed.

Chen Mengyao was going to help in the kitchen, but she never had the chance.

Secretary Peng kept chatting with her, and she had to answer. Most of the questions he asked were about economics. It was obvious that Secretary Peng had some research on economics and was an expert.

As a celebrity in Bazhong City, Tang Xiaobao is naturally the focus of Secretary Peng's care. It can be said that today's trip to the welfare home was also a sudden decision. He only found out about Tang Xiaobao and Shen Meng when he was chatting on the phone with Wei Donglai last night.

Yao is coming here today. It can be said that it was Tang Xiaobao's unintentional words that prompted Secretary Peng to come here today.

"Mr. Tang, our city cultural center is holding a Lantern Festival Gala on the Lantern Festival. You and Mr. Shen should come and attend it. We will also have an industrial and commercial symposium at that time. I would like to invite you here as well." Secretary Peng began to invite.

Tang Xiaobao quickly said: "For this kind of thing, you should go to Mr. Shen. I personally know nothing about business. I am a real layman and I don't have much interest in it."

Secretary Peng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Young and promising, yet so humble. Mr. Tang is a role model for young people."

Tang Xiaobao was about to speak when the phone rang.

"Sorry." Tang Xiaobao answered the phone.

I had to answer the phone, it was Alice calling.

"Ah, you're here? Taxi? That's perfect, I'm at the orphanage, come over."

Chen Mengyao asked: "Your friend?"

Tang Xiaobao put away his phone and said, "Princess Alice has arrived in Bazhong."

ah?

Everyone was stunned.

Princess Alice?

That national goddess?

God of charity?

Is she also the future queen of the Las Empire?

The one who just became Tang Xiaobao’s public relations lover?

Secretary Peng's expression changed. "Mr. Tang, are you saying that Princess Alice has arrived in Bazhong?"

Tang Xiaobao smiled casually and said, "Yes."

"Where is it? I'll arrange someone to receive you right away." Secretary Peng said quickly.

Tang Xiaobao was startled. "No need to receive her. She's coming to my house to celebrate the New Year. I've already asked her to take a taxi. She should be here soon."

sweat……

Secretary Peng was speechless.

You actually let Princess Alice take a taxi here by herself?

Is your attitude a bit too high?

Not only was he speechless, everyone was speechless.

In Tang Xiaobao's opinion, Princess Alice is no different from his other confidantes. She is just an ordinary girl, except that she is prettier and her family is richer.

But to ordinary people, Princess Alice is not an ordinary person.

She is the princess of the Las Empire, the saint of the Holy Church, and the universally recognized god of charity. Wherever she goes in the world, she will be received by the head of state. The standard of the reception is so high that it is simply admirable.

But in a small place like Bazhong, you actually took a taxi here?

No one needs to pick up the phone?

To be honest, everyone thought this was too rude and did not take the princess seriously.

“By the way, Mr. Shen, I have a suggestion.” Tang Xiaobao didn’t care what they thought and suddenly said to Shen Mengyao beside him.

Chen Mengyao smiled and said, “You say.”

Tang Xiaobao looked at Mr. Lu and said, "Mr. Lu, I see that the building of your welfare home is a bit old, and the recreational facilities are not complete. How about our company pay for you to find a new place to build a better welfare home, and then we can have more complete facilities, and choose a place closer to the city center. You see, the transportation here is not convenient, there are not many buses, and it is too far to go to the square or the street garden. It will be inconvenient for the children to go to school in the future.

Mr. Lu was dumbfounded.

What?

Do we need to choose a new location and rebuild the welfare home?

This is like replacing a musket with a cannon.

This is a good thing, a very good thing, but Lu Hua has no say in this matter. This welfare home is nominally a subordinate unit of the Civil Affairs Bureau, so he can only look at Secretary Peng on the side.
