Chapter 660: Contentment



The municipal party committee's request to remove County Mayor Li Lin from his post became a dead letter.

Guo Xuecai became the laughing stock of Pingyang because of this.

In the past two days, there has been a heated discussion on this issue upstairs in the Municipal Party Committee.

Most of them are on Li Lin's side, criticizing Guo Xuecai for taking revenge as soon as he came to power. This feud has been going on for many years, and it is also a feud between him and Qian Lingyun. It is not enough to belittle Li Lin once, but he has to step on him again? This is really a piece of shit.

There were also people who were laughing at the joke, most of whom were also making fun of Guo Xuecai. Some people said, "Secretary Guo has really hit a wall. He wanted to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys, but he failed miserably. Who could have thought that a county-level official in Pingyang would have such a strong background? Oh, who can he blame? He blamed himself for not picking the right person! He picked the most difficult person in Pingyang and asked for trouble!"

Many people sighed, "This County Magistrate Li Lin is so awesome! I heard that he took the initiative to stand up and confront Secretary Guo at the Standing Committee meeting, which made Secretary Guo embarrassed and unable to refute... People with backers speak and act with style..."

A single stone can cause a thousand ripples... Li Lin became even more famous in Pingyang. Almost every bureau and committee member was talking about this matter, and later it spread to every street corner.

"Have you heard? The new municipal party secretary is a piece of shit. As soon as he takes office, he wants to dismiss Li Lin, our hero of Pingyang."

"Who is Li Lin?"

"It was Li Lin, the man who revitalized the cotton mill, introduced the Longjian project, and cracked down on corruption and brought down seven or eight deputy directors of municipal bureaus..."

"Oh! I remember! He has been to our factory... What a pity... Today's leaders only bully the honest people..."

"It's useless to be the municipal party secretary! In the end, don't we have to respectfully invite County Magistrate Li back?"

...

Later, as the story was passed around, its meaning changed and became more and more exaggerated.

When it reached Gao Qiang's ears, it became a cool plot of "The municipal party secretary wanted to suppress dissidents, but was taught a lesson on the spot by Li Lin..." Li Lin definitely became the male protagonist in the cool script... It was so satisfying to hear!

Gao Qiang was at a convenience store, listening to Director Niu from the Education Bureau's office recounting Li Lin's heroic deeds. He proudly slapped his thigh and boasted, "That's right! Don't you see who I am, Brother Lin!... I, Brother Lin, would definitely not take ordinary people seriously. Haha, come on, Director Niu, have some water!"

Director Niu took the bottle of mineral water, twisted it open and took a sip, then said with a smile, "Boss Gao, you have a good friend like County Magistrate Li, so you won't have to worry about expanding and strengthening your business in the future! My suggestion is that you should meet with County Magistrate Li more often when you have time, and chat about the past. Maybe you can come up with a money-making project... Also, if there is a chance in the future, please introduce me to County Magistrate Li and let us make friends... Hehe..."

Director Niu was introduced by Director Yuan of the municipal government to purchase at Gaoqiang Convenience Store. The reason why Yuan Qingjiang helped Gaoqiang was naturally entrusted by Li Lin. At first, Director Niu thought that there was some special relationship between Gaoqiang and Director Yuan. Later, he found out that Gaoqiang was not relying on Director Yuan, but on his high school classmate Li Lin. After dealing with each other for a long time, the two gradually became able to chat.

Gao Qiang scratched his head and said with a smile, "Director Niu, you flatter me. I'm not the type to run a big business. I'm just going to run a shop and make a little money to live on. Besides, I'm embarrassed to bother Brother Lin, but I'll definitely introduce you to each other when there's a chance in the future."

Director Niu nodded cheerfully and said, "Okay, I'll wait for your good news. I'll arrange the food and drinks then."

Gao Qiang said, "How can I let you arrange it? You have been taking care of my business for so long, it is my turn to arrange it! Besides, the last thing I lack is cigarettes and alcohol! Hehehe..."

Director Niu smiled and said, "What you said makes sense. I won't be polite then. I'll wait for your good news."

After talking about Li Lin for a while, Gao Qiang remembered that it seemed like he hadn't seen Li Lin for a long time.

He counted on his fingers and realized that they hadn't seen each other for more than two months.

Logically speaking, he should have invited Li Lin to the city for a meal to express his gratitude.

It was not to express gratitude for his prosperous business, but because Chen Hongxing took care of Shen Lingli in the Second Municipal Hospital. Not only was she no longer bullied, but she was also promoted to head nurse. Not only was she respected, but her salary also increased significantly.

Every time he saw Shen Lingli going to and from work happily, Gao Qiang felt so happy and blessed. While he was happy and blessed, he never forgot that this was all fought for by Li Lin. If it weren't for Li Lin, Gao Qiang and Shen Lingli would probably still be the unknown and pitiful little people.

Thinking of this, Gao Qiang took out his cell phone and called Li Lin.

Soon, the call was connected.

After a brief greeting, Gao Qiang said, "Brother Lin, I heard everything. The new municipal party secretary is such a piece of shit. He targeted you right from the start. I feel so disappointed for you! You were right to stand up to him at the meeting. No matter how awesome he is, didn't he still take the initiative to apologize to you in the end?"

Li Lin asked in surprise, "Who told you that?"

Gao Qiang said, "Director Niu from the Municipal Education Bureau said so."

Li Lin frowned and warned, "Don't spread rumors! Especially for a relationship like ours, just pretend you didn't hear it, and don't express your opinions, it's easy to be misunderstood."

Gao Qiang said, "I'm not the only one who said this. Many people in the city know about it. They all say that you are better than the municipal party secretary..."

Hearing this, Li Lin's heart sank.

He knows the power of public opinion. It can make one thing sound like another thing, it can describe a person as another person...it can also force a person who is not that kind of person to become that kind of person.
