If Gao Lingyue had privately inquired about Li Lin, he would never have rashly come to Shannan County to plead for Zhao Chengyi and the other two prisoners!
About seven or eight minutes passed after Niu Jianbin finished the call.
Gao Lingyue couldn't sit still. His boss got angry and said to Liu Yong and others, "What's wrong with the cadres in your county? Don't they have any credibility? They said they would be here soon, but they haven't shown up in almost ten minutes. Is this how you treat guests? Oh, or do you underestimate me, Gao Lingyue, and don't take me seriously at all?"
Seeing his leader getting angry, Liu Yong hurriedly explained, "Director Wan, calm down. The county has just launched a 10 billion project. Dingfeng and the provincial party committee are keeping an eye on it. As the person in charge, Li Lin is under great pressure and dares not relax at all... It should be because of the project that he delayed his trip. Please don't take it to heart. I will call him again, hehe..."
As he spoke, Liu Yong took out his cell phone. He had a smile on his face from beginning to end, and his emotions were well controlled.
Wan Zhenting also said to Gao Lingyue with a smile, "Director Gao, what Secretary Liu said is the truth. Recently, the city has held several meetings for the Shannan Ancient City project... There are project bidding and geological exploration... I guess Li Lin will not have an easy time recently. You should calm down. He will definitely not dare to look down on you. When he comes, you can criticize him and vent your anger! Hehe..."
Niu Jianbin opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but suddenly realized that his rank was not enough to persuade a senior leader from Yanjing, so he closed his mouth tactfully, looked at Gao Lingyue, laughed dryly twice and stopped talking.
Gao Lingyue sighed, then slowly stood up and said, "Since your county's project is so important, I won't bother you any more... Director Wan, I think we're here at the wrong time, so let's go back first!"
He was unwilling to not see Li Lin and release Zhao Chengyi and the other two! But it would be a joke for an official from Yanjing to wait for a local official for so long. In order to save his face, he could only leave unwillingly!
Just go, and you will feel at peace!
This was Liu Yong's true thought, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. Instead, he advised against his will, "Director Gao, Li Lin just replied to my message and said that he's downstairs. Don't leave in a hurry... It's not easy for him to come here, and he must have dinner in our Shannan tonight. Let us show our hospitality, hehe..."
Still in the mood to eat?
Gao Lingyue rolled his eyes at Liu Yong, but when he heard that Li Lin had already gone downstairs, he had to sit down again with a thick face and snorted coldly, "I have to go back to Yanjing after finishing my business. There is a lot of work waiting for me... I won't eat."
What he actually wanted to express was that as a Yanjing official, he was in charge of so many people in the public security system and was much busier than you local officials!
Liu Yong smiled and said, "That's right, that's right... You are in charge of so many people, you must be much busier than us... I'm really sorry to have taken up your time..."
In fact, he cursed in his heart, who doesn't know how idle you Beijing officials are? How many jobs do you need to do yourself? Will you die if you don't show off?
Just at this moment.
The door of the reception room was pushed open by the police.
Li Lin walked in slowly with a smile on his face.
Liu Yong and Niu Jianbin breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Li Lin finally arrived, and hurriedly stepped forward to introduce Gao Lingyue to him.
Liu Yong said, "Xiao Lin, you are finally here. The leaders have been waiting anxiously... Come on, let me introduce you... I won't introduce Director Wan, you must be familiar with him... This is Director Gao from Yanjing..."
Under Liu Yong's guidance, Li Lin first shook hands with Wan Zhenting and exchanged a few words, then walked up to Gao Lingyue, extended his right hand, and said politely, "Director Gao, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."
Gao Lingyue wanted to ignore Li Lin, but thinking that Li Lin was the actual helmsman of Shannan County, he suppressed his unhappiness and reluctantly stretched out his hand to shake hands with Li Lin symbolically, then said indifferently, "If I hadn't come down to take a look, I wouldn't have known. Your work is so busy... Oh, it's my fault. I shouldn't have disturbed County Magistrate Li's work!"
Obviously, these words were filled with resentment.
Li Lin felt deeply disgusted when he saw Gao Lingyue's domineering behavior.
Li Lin did not explain to him why he came so late, but politely extended his hand to invite him to sit down, and then he found a seat and sat down himself.
However, Liu Yong was still standing.
Li Lin looked at him in confusion.
Liu Yong smiled and said to everyone in the room, "Since County Magistrate Li Lin is here, you guys talk first. I'll go arrange lunch for the leaders... Hehe, Director Gao finally came to the county, how can he leave without a meal?"
Without waiting for anyone to respond.
Liu Yong turned to Li Lin and said, "Xiao Lin, talk to Director Gao first. You must invite all the leaders to have dinner in the county later!"
After that, he waved his hands at the people in the room, meaning "You guys talk, see you later..."
He waved his hand and walked out of the door...As the door closed, he completely disappeared from everyone's sight.
Wan Zhenting and Gao Lingyue were stunned for a moment as they watched this scene.
Why does it feel like Liu Yong is running away... What is he afraid of?
However, Li Lin just smiled calmly when he saw this. He knew what Liu Yong was afraid of.
He was afraid that Li Lin and Gao Lingyue would start arguing, and then he would be caught in the middle, and ultimately end up getting no thanks and offending someone.
This is his usual style, running away when things go wrong, an old way of protecting himself!
Li Lin was not surprised and didn't take it seriously. He turned his head to look at Wan Zhenting and Gao Lingyue and said seriously, "How was the visit, leaders? If there is anything that our county bureau has not done well, please point it out and we will correct it immediately."
This was a question that was asked knowingly. As long as the other party didn't mention Zhao Chengyi's matter, Li Lin would pretend to know nothing about it, and treat them as if they were there to guide the work, and see how they would speak next.
Wan Zhenting touched his nose, wanting to say something but stopping himself. He thought he should not speak, and let Gao Lingyue talk to Li Lin himself, so as not to say the wrong thing and cause Li Lin to misunderstand. He still had concerns about Li Lin, thinking that Li Lin had such a strong background, it was better for him to avoid provoking him.
Gao Lingyue immediately understood the meaning of Wan Zhenting's eyes.
So he didn't hesitate, smiled coldly and went straight to the point, saying, "County Magistrate Li, there is no one else here, I will just say whatever I want to say... Those entrepreneurs from Beijing that your county bureau arrested are my friends. I hope County Magistrate Li can give me some face and make a big deal out of it. What do you think? As long as Zhao Chengyi and the others can be released, you, County Magistrate Li Lin, will be my friend from now on. No matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, you can come to Yanjing to ask me for help, and I will definitely repay you for this favor!"
People in the circle actually speak so directly, without so many beating around the bush, and they don’t try to guess each other’s thoughts, especially big leaders talking to small officials... They just put forward their ideas, and let you weigh it yourself whether you agree or not!
Li Lin smiled.
He also made his attitude clear, saying, "I'm sorry Director Gao, I can't help you with this matter."
Hearing this, everyone present was shocked and looked at Li Lin in disbelief, stunned.
