Chapter 270 The Mysterious Old Man



He paused, then added with a wink, "Isn't Mayor Qingfeng also sitting on the Diaoyutai?"

After hearing what Xiao Yao said, everyone knew that the situation was hopeless.

It's not that they really can't wait that night, but if they can encourage Xiao Yao to go and ask, it will be Xiao Yao's business if he suffers or gets scolded, and it won't be a loss for them. If it succeeds, they can know the inside story earlier, so why not do it!

Unfortunately, they failed to fool the other party, so they just dispersed.

When the office quieted down again, Xiao Yao lit a cigarette, looked out the empty door, snorted coldly, and then shook his head with emotion, "This guy always thinks he is smart and everyone else is a fool! Hehe!"

After he finished speaking, he held the cigarette again, frowned, and whispered, "Old Huo, what on earth are you thinking about, you smart guy!"

As the workday was getting close, Huo Qianli, who had been sitting in the office for more than an hour, sighed, drank the tea in the cup, poured out the tasteless tea leaves, washed the cup, closed the notebook and put it in the drawer, turned off and then turned on the computer which he had not had time to use. Only then did he realize that he had not accomplished anything else that day. He could not help but shook his head. When he was about to get up and leave, a figure walked to the door rashly and quickly.

"Secretary Huo."

Huo Qianli looked at him calmly, "Director Wang, is there anything wrong?"

The person who came was Wang Wei, the director of the town party committee office, who was supposed to leave Qianfu Town last week and take up the post in the county policy research office.

The reason why this transfer that Secretary Guo personally agreed to has not been carried out until now is not because of Guo Haoran, Huo Qianli, or Wang Wei, but because of the person who took over.

And this successor is actually the real key to this transfer.

Huo Qianli took the initiative to send Wang Wei out and vacated the position of director of the town party and government office for Guo Haoran to arrange. In addition to wanting to help Wang Wei go to a place where he can better utilize his own strengths, more importantly, it was also an open-minded approach that took the initiative to deepen the connection and trust with Guo Haoran. Guo Haoran knew it very well, and in order to return the favor, he naturally had to send someone who was capable enough and trustworthy but would not cause trouble for Huo Qianli.

Originally, this person existed, but just before leaving, this young man, who could have risen to prominence with the help of the two county officials, actually took money for doing things for others. Not only did he take a lot of money, but he also took a lot of money. Not only that, but he was also discovered by Guo Haoran, so they had to look for someone else.

The love-hate relationship between Secretary Huo and Wei Ge can only last for a short while.

Wei Ge had a strange expression on his face at the moment, and his tone was a little hesitant. He stammered, "Secretary Huo, someone is looking for you."

Huo Qianli frowned, "Looking for me? Who?"

It was the time when he was getting off work. Who would come to him through Wang Wei's channel?

"It's like this. An old man came to the government office and yelled that he wanted to see you. He didn't say what he wanted, but he was very emotional. I tried to calm him down for a long time, but it was useless. How about you meet him, Secretary?"

Huo Qianli:.......

This is just causing more trouble!

Huo Qianli, who was already having a headache because of today's events, subconsciously wanted to reprimand him, but was restrained by his own "professional ethics".

If an official does not serve the people, he might as well go home and dig sweet potatoes.

He never thought of becoming a town official who was high up in the sky and out of touch with the masses.

So he took a deep breath and said, "Please bring the people up."

Wang Wei breathed a sigh of relief and actually went there with a happy look on his face.

Huo Qianli was almost dizzy from watching this.

A few minutes later, Wei Ge came back scratching his head.

Huo Qianli looked behind him and asked in surprise: "Where are the people?"

Wei Ge looked embarrassed and said, "I just asked him to wait in my office, but he disappeared as soon as I got back."

Huo Qianli pulled the corner of his mouth, and Wei Ge quickly said: "Secretary Huo, don't worry, I will find a way to get him back tomorrow."

"What are you doing with nothing to do?" Huo Qianli couldn't help but emphasize his tone, "If they really have something to do, they will come naturally. If they come tomorrow, ask about the situation. Most of the people's situations can be solved by you as the director of the town party committee office. Think of a solution!"

Wei Ge was so scared that he nodded in agreement.

Huo Qianli shook his head and walked towards home, went up the stairs, and then suddenly stopped at the door.

An old man wrapped in an old green military coat was sitting on the steps in front of his house, hunched over and shivering slightly in the cold wind in the corridor, with two neatly lined up cigarette butts next to his hand, obviously having just been smoked.

Because Huo Qianli lived on the top floor, no one noticed the old man sitting there.

Seeing Huo Qianli, the condescending old man quickly said, "Are you the secretary of this town?"

Huo Qianli felt that the situation at the moment was extremely absurd, and he felt like a person who was blocked at his doorstep by debt collectors.

He raised his head slightly, neither advancing nor retreating, and said calmly: "Hello, old man, I am Huo Qianli, and I am also the secretary of this town."

The old man raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, "Huh? Aren't you afraid that I will cause trouble for you?"

Huo Qianli looked calm and said calmly: "Why should I be afraid? If you are a normal person who comes to solve the problem, we can talk it out and make the problem clear. What should be solved is solved. What's there to be afraid of? Besides, acting for the people is what we should do. It's not a problem."

The old man chuckled, "What if I'm not here to solve the problem normally? You've done so many ugly things in this town, aren't there a few who come here to seek revenge?"

Huo Qianli also chuckled, "First, I am upright and have never done anything shameful. I dare not say anything else. In this town, the only people who want to vent their anger and revenge on me are probably those who are corrupt and break the law, and those people are already behind the sewing machines."
