"The situation in your Meilin Village is very complicated. It's not that I don't want to help, but I don't have the final say. You should have heard about the situation in this town. Although the new deputy mayor Li is young, he is very skilled and capable, and he is stirring up trouble.
Secretary Zhang, the top leader, wanted to control the situation, and Mayor Hou was not to be outdone. The last town party committee meeting was full of tension, and this time...
It’s not that I don’t want to help, but my words don’t count…”
As Lu Zhenhai spoke, Zhou Jianzhong sighed in his heart. Fortunately, he had found Li Xiuyuan in advance. Otherwise, if he really relied on Lu Zhenhai, this matter would not have been accomplished.
"Zhenhai, I understand. What if we already have the support of Deputy Mayor Li?" Zhou Jianzhong said. Although Li Xiuyuan did not make a clear statement, he also implicitly expressed his support.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be this lunch party today.
"Li Xiuyuan supports you?" Lu Zhenhai was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Zhou Jianzhong could actually get in touch with Li Xiuyuan.
"Well, it's like this. It's a coincidence that Junliang and Deputy Mayor Li were already familiar with each other..." Zhou Jianzhong recounted the story, with the relationship between Zhou Junliang and Li Xiuyuan's brother-in-law Zhang Zhihao being the key point.
Lu Zhenhai felt a little more relaxed after hearing this, but he still didn't want to get involved in these things. This was a whirlpool, and if he got involved, he would offend people.
"Old Zhou, since Deputy Mayor Li supports Zhou Junliang, there should be no problem. I..." Lu Zhenhai wanted to refuse tactfully.
"Zhenhai, I know who you are, and I know you don't want to get involved in these things, but this opportunity is very important to us. Usually, the Tians are in control, and we Zhous have no say at all.
It's so hard to get such a big project. Seeing that the opportunity has come to us, we also want to give it a try. Zhenhai, please help me..."
"This..." Lu Zhenhai was still a little embarrassed, but his relationship with Zhou Jianzhong was there, so he couldn't say the words of refusal.
Zhou Jianzhong wanted to speak up to persuade him and add fuel to the fire, but at this moment, Li Xiuyuan pushed the door open.
"Mayor Li." Zhou Jianzhong stood up.
Li Xiuyuan smiled and nodded, then set his eyes on Lu Zhenhai and quickly walked to him: "Hello, Secretary Lu."
"Hello, Mayor Li."
Lu Zhenhai looked at Li Xiuyuan and suddenly remembered what his daughter Lu Ting said about Wang Zhitao last night.
"Secretary Lu, I have wanted to invite you to dinner for a long time, but there has never been a suitable opportunity. I happened to hear that Director Zhou has a good relationship with you, so I asked Director Zhou to invite you over. Please take a seat." Li Xiuyuan said with a smile.
Without saying anything else, this is a very polite statement, and the attitude is very humble.
"Mayor Li, what are you talking about? If anyone wants to treat you, it should be me. I came to Central Town a few years earlier than Mayor Li, so I'm half a..." Lu Zhenhai was talking. Li Xiuyuan waved his hand and interrupted Lu Zhenhai before he finished speaking: "Hey, Secretary Lu, you are too polite. Once you come to Central Town, you belong to Central Town. Secretary Lu, I'll pay for this meal. Don't be polite to me."
