Yu Xiubao did not stay at Li Lin's house often, after all, his goal had been achieved.
The visit to Li Lin's aunt was fake, and it was mainly to show Li Lin his support.
Yu Xiubao felt satisfied when he saw that Li Lin had no aversion to him.
He smiled innocently, then stood up and said goodbye.
Li Lin sent him to the door, and when Yu Xiubao was standing at the door waving goodbye, Li Lin stuffed a can of tea produced in Weishui Township into Yu Xiubao's hand.
"Director Yu, you are too polite. You can take these teas back and try them. Don't bring anything to our house in the future, otherwise I will not welcome you." Li Lin reminded him with a smile that he was not allowed to bring gifts to his house in the future.
He saw that the things Yu Xiubao brought were not expensive, and thinking that they would work together in the future, he did not refuse him, but gave him a box of tea as a return gift.
When Yu Xiubao mentioned the tea leaves that Li Lin stuffed into his hand, he was stunned for a moment. He didn't quite understand what Li Lin meant and was still hesitating whether to accept it.
"County Magistrate Li, this is not a good idea... I came to see my aunt and want to take some things back, this..." Yu Xiubao said hesitantly.
Li Lin did not explain, but smiled and waved his hand and said, "Go back. If you have anything, we can talk about it in the office tomorrow."
"Well, okay then..."
Seeing Li Lin's firm attitude, Yu Xiubao gladly accepted it and waved goodbye to Li Lin. It was not until he went downstairs that he heard the sound of Li Lin closing the door.
Standing at the entrance of the building, looking at the tea that Li Lin gave him, Yu Xiubao fell into deep thought.
He thought, "Isn't County Magistrate Li too particular? Or does he simply not want to accept my favor..."
"But those gifts themselves are not worth much..."
"County Magistrate Li is too cautious. It seems that he is still on guard against me. Otherwise, why would he try to exchange gifts with me?"
"It seems that if I want to get closer to Li Lin, I still need to work harder..."
Thinking of this, Yu Xiubao gradually understood Li Lin's intentions. He knew that Li Lin was deliberately keeping a distance from him, and he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
The next morning.
Qiao An went downstairs early, started the car and waited for Li Lin.
The gatekeeper was sweeping the yard. He saw Li Lin coming down the stairs from a distance, dropped the broom in his hand, and hurriedly ran towards Li Lin.
"Xiao Lin, I heard that you are now the county magistrate? Oh, that's amazing. Our community has become more prestigious because of you. You don't know, but more than a dozen people have come to me to ask about you in the past two days..." the gatekeeper said excitedly.
When he talked about those people who came to ask him about Li Lin, he looked even more energetic, because when those people came to ask him about Li Lin's residence, they often stuffed cigarettes into his drawer.
He never expected that as a security guard, he would suddenly be so popular one day...
All this was thanks to Li Lin, so he was very excited to see Li Lin early in the morning.
The county town is too small and news spreads quickly.
I didn’t expect that after the meeting just yesterday, today even the old man who guards the neighborhood knows that I have become the county magistrate.
Li Lin looked at the old man with interest and said with a smile, "Uncle, you must stick to the bottom line and never disclose my personal information to others at will."
The doorman patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone who asks you. I protect the privacy of the residents. I understand this principle!"
Li Lin smiled and nodded at him, without saying anything else, he walked straight out of the community, got in the car and headed for the county government.
Watching Li Lin's departing back, the gatekeeper couldn't help but sigh secretly, "You are young and promising... I want to keep your privacy, but they gave too much... Besides, they want to see you, isn't it to give you gifts and get closer to you?"
...
County government.
Yu Xiubao met Jiang Weihua who was walking up the stairs in the hall. He wanted to avoid him, but Jiang Weihua stopped him. He had no choice but to go over.
Seeing that there was no one around, Jiang Weihua lowered his voice and said to Xiu Bo, "Director Yu, County Magistrate Ma will hold a meeting today to announce the decision of Li Lin's unit. You will be present at the meeting. I have already told the heads of other units that you will be the first to stand up and oppose Li Lin, and others will stand up and oppose one after another...Haha, think about it, by then, how can Li Lin, who has lost such a big face, still have the face to work in the county government?"
To this day, Jiang Weihua has no doubt about Yu Xiu Bo's loyalty. He firmly believes that Yu Xiu Bo is his staunch supporter and will definitely help him bring down Li Lin.
But Yu Xiubao had his own plans in mind... He didn't want to offend Li Lin, or any county leaders. He just wanted to be the head of his investment promotion bureau in peace.
Seeing that he was only smiling but not talking, Jiang Weihua immediately frowned and asked, "Old Yu, didn't you say yesterday that you would go to County Magistrate Ma in person to oppose Li Lin? Are you backing down?"
Yu Xiubo laughed and said with an evasive look, "County Magistrate Jiang, I support you, there is no doubt about that..."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Weihua said impatiently, "That's enough! I understand your intentions, no need to say more. In the meeting later, you must stand up and oppose Li Lin no matter what, and embarrass him in public and make him lose face... Don't worry, no matter what happens, I will find a way to cover you!"
"But County Magistrate Jiang...Hey, County Magistrate Jiang?..."
Yu Xiubo wanted to reject Jiang Weihua's proposal in person, but Jiang Weihua didn't listen to him at all. He held his head high and walked upstairs alone.
It seemed as if he was using this tough attitude to warn Yu Xiubao: If you don't do as I say, then we'll see what happens next!
Yu Xiubao chased after Jiang Weihua and called out to him twice, but seeing that Jiang Weihua was determined, he didn't even turn his head back.
He could only stop where he was, sighed, and complained in his heart, "It seems that I will definitely offend one of Jiang Weihua and Li Lin today."
He was asked to offend Li Lin in front of County Magistrate Ma, while Jiang Weihua just sat aside and watched the show. Isn't this clearly using him as a tool?
Yu Xiubao was not stupid at all. He hesitated for a moment and made up his mind immediately - to support Li Lin!
Jiang Weihua picked up the landline phone when he returned to his office and called the Education Bureau, the Approval Hall, and several other heads of units with whom he had connections.
These units are exactly the ones that were officially handed over to Li Lin for management today.
He called these people with only one purpose - to defeat Li Lin, to refuse his responsibility, to embarrass him, to make him a laughing stock of the county government, to ruin his reputation...!
On the phone, those people all agreed out of loyalty and said they would definitely embarrass Li Lin.
As for how credible these people's words were, Jiang Weihua did not think deeply about it.
At this moment, he was overwhelmed by anger. In order to vent his anger, he would use any means and ignore the consequences!
