"President Wang, look at this! Everyone's full of energy!" Li Xiuyuan said with a smile.
Wang Yonghua nodded in agreement. How could they not be full of energy? They had worked for twenty days last month, and Li Xiuyuan would pay them at the end of this month. Fifty yuan a day. Where else could a farmer earn fifty yuan a day? Of course, they were going to work very hard.
“President Wang, spring is the time to make a big push. Meilin Village is a major project. I already led the planning bureau to conduct an on-site survey yesterday, and the planning map will be ready soon. President Wang, you should also contribute to the construction of Meilin Village as a new rural demonstration village.” Li Xiuyuan said with a smile.
Last time it was a warning; this time it's all empty promises.
Listening to Li Xiuyuan's words, Wang Yonghua's heart also burned with excitement. He knew that the project of this new rural demonstration village was worth tens of millions of yuan in total. Of course, if he could continue to participate in the follow-up, he would make a lot of money.
Even if it's a bit difficult to get money, if it weren't difficult, would it even be his turn? He had thought about it before, but this was the first time Li Xiuyuan had explicitly brought it up and was willing to let him participate.
Of course, Li Xiuyuan bringing it up doesn't mean it's settled, but rather that it opened a door for him. At least from Li Xiuyuan's perspective, he has expressed his stance.
"Definitely, definitely, Mayor Li, if you give me this opportunity, I will do my best. To be honest, I'm on the construction site every day, and I'm thinking about whether there's anything we're lacking. Mayor Li, please give us some suggestions," Wang Yonghua said to Li Xiuyuan.
If Li Xiuyuan makes empty promises, then he'll have to be compliant and let Li Xiuyuan make his demands. After all, Li Xiuyuan hasn't taken anything from him so far, which makes him uneasy. As for withholding project payments, well, which project doesn't have that?
"Mr. Wang, you've done a great job. If I had to offer some feedback, as I mentioned before, if you're so kind, you could improve the meals at our project site. That would be a great effort from you, and everyone would appreciate it. Plus, if you get to know the villagers better, it will be easier for you to communicate with them in the village. It's a win-win situation."
As Li Xiuyuan spoke, Wang Yonghua nodded repeatedly and said, "Mayor Li is right, but there's no need for me to improve everyone's meals. Let's stick to Mayor Li's name. Everyone knows I'm here to make money from this project, but Mayor Li, you're the one leading us in building our new home..."
Wang Yonghua didn't dislike this empty title; rather, it was useless to him. Besides, what good would it do to win people's hearts? Would eating a few meals of pork make everyone feel like they were one of his own? No.
On the contrary, if I help Li Xiuyuan gain a good reputation, and Li Xiuyuan remembers even a little bit of my kindness, that's better than anything else.
"Mr. Wang, what can I say about you?" Li Xiuyuan shook his head with a smile. It was just a pointless remark; he neither agreed nor refused. Wang Yonghua had been dealing with leaders within the system for a long time.
If you can't tell, you might as well quit. No explicit refusal means yes. Do you think the leader would just agree like that and give others cause for criticism? Shaking his head and sighing, looking helpless, means he's agreed.
You decide what to do. If you do it well, it's the leader's credit; if you don't, it's because the leader refused and you acted on your own initiative. The leader never said that.
Tsk tsk, Wang Yonghua called to tell people to buy pigs right now so they could improve their meals tonight. At the same time, he was thinking to himself, how come Li Xiuyuan, at such a young age, is so clear about the intricacies of the system? He's playing the game with unparalleled skill.
However, judging from Li Xiuyuan's expression, he really didn't intend to accept my things, which is a good thing. How much does a pig cost? Before the New Year, it was over 700 yuan, but now that the New Year is over, the price has dropped a bit, and you can buy a pig weighing over 200 jin for just over 600 yuan.
