At this time, he was still comforting someone in his heart. The dog was still outside. Maybe he felt it was too stuffy and wanted to ventilate, so he pushed the door open and went in.
Apart from a few bundles of firewood, there was not even a ghost in sight.
Where did that big guy go?
My heart finally settled down.
Beads of sweat streamed down Zhou Dayong's face, and his body was shaking uncontrollably: "Director, the person is really missing!"
Wu Dehua's anger surged in his heart like a torrent, and he got annoyed when he saw him: "What's the point of you telling me? Why don't you go find someone!"
Zhou Dayong gave his guess: "I know where he is. He should be at the Garden Hotel where the leader is staying."
"You know it but you still don't move. Well, you want me to invite you!"
Zhou Dayong offered him some advice: "Director, I don't need you to ask me to leave. Just calm down and listen to me. It's too late for me to stop him now. They should have met with the higher-ups. Director, you see, we just had dinner with them yesterday. Can you talk to the leaders and we'll be fine?"
"I'll tell him. If there's no other way, you know what to do." Wu Dehua still did as he said, but the look in his eyes was as if he was looking at a discarded pawn.
Although he was reluctant to part with this useful subordinate, he could still find others to help him without him. He was responsible for his affairs in the past few years. If he knew that he accepted gifts for doing things for others, he would have no need to live if he was exposed.
Zhou Dayong also saw it. He knew that this was his last chance. His mother needed someone to take care of her, so he had to get out of this safely. Even if the director promised to take good care of his mother, he couldn't even take care of himself, so he had to take care of others.
"Okay." Zhou Dayong nodded quickly.
"Hurry up and go!"
The dog in the yard seemed to understand what Wu Dehua meant and chased Zhou Dayong for a while.
Zhou Dayong ran out of the door, and his dog, who was raised by him, turned around and bit him. Damn, stupid dog!
He spat at the corner of the wall. He went to the Garden Hotel first to see how far the situation had developed and then think of a solution.
Wu Dehua called the dog back only after he saw it chase the people away.
He slowly put on his clothes before walking out the door, leisurely ate a bowl of small wontons outside, and then rode his shiny bicycle to the Garden Hotel.
He heard another version on the way. Bao Gaoyuan was being carried as if he was kidnapped, and several people surrounded him as if he had committed something. He began to doubt which one was true.
He rode his bike unsteadily along the road. There were a lot of people along the way. When he arrived, he found that Zhou Dayong was still downstairs. He couldn't squeeze in, so what was the use of him?
Zhou Dayong was so anxious that he wanted to climb the stair rails.
"Hey, hey, hey, look here, this is the mayor of our town, and I am the deputy director. Hurry up and get out of the way, don't delay our mayor from doing his important work." Zhou Dayong did not say the word "acting".
"What a powerful official!" a man said disdainfully.
Wu Dehua glanced at the speaker and said sarcastically, "You'll never be able to hold my position in your lifetime. Look at how poor you are. You deserve to be unable to eat!"
"You? You're just an official, what's so great about that? Where did the mayor and director go? Were they the two of you who were so ruthless that you pushed them out of office?"
Wu Dehua looked at him and said, "You think you deserve this? Go home and farm your fields. Don't hang around here. You can't even afford to buy anything, so why are you still going to the market?"
"Mom, I want a bike too!" A little kid looked at the bike Wu Dehua was riding and jumped towards him with a smile.
The woman almost lost her grip on the child in her arms
"What are you looking at? Even if you like it, you can never afford it in your lifetime!" Wu Dehua squinted at the brat and said, "Go lock the car for me. If a thief steals it, you'll have to pay for it!"
Zhou Dayong hurriedly pushed the car to the front desk and said, "Leave the car to our mayor to take good care of it. If it gets lost, you will have to pay for it!" This car was so expensive that it cost him several months' salary to buy it. If it got stolen, his family would be left with nothing.
"Okay." The receptionist was speechless. He was clearly told to stop, so why was he called again? But he was afraid of offending the mayor, so he parked the car behind the service counter and didn't dare to move.
The innkeeper was still settling his bill when he heard the mayor had arrived. Overwhelmed, he hurried over and said, "Mayor, your presence is truly a great honor to our humble inn!"
"That's good to know. Why don't you take the mayor to the third floor quickly?" Zhou Dayong spoke on behalf of Wu Dehua.
Mayor Wu Dehua was free to look at the first small hotel in their town. The bright red flower carpet was spread on the ground, which looked quite fashionable.
"Oh, it's my fault. Clear them out quickly. Please come, Mayor!" The store manager waved his fat hand and asked the employees to drive everyone out.
He felt comfortable when he saw the empty stairs. He had been crowded with these farmers and felt that the air was not good.
Wu Dehua followed his hand and walked up the stairs. He stopped before climbing a few steps and commented, "Your decoration is very good. Business must be very good recently!"
"Thanks to you, it's great." The boss handed over the cigarette with a smile.
"Okay, do your best."
The boss nodded in agreement, thinking back to when he first opened the hotel, some street thugs often came to rob them, leaving him with no business. He heard that giving gifts to Wu Dehua was more effective than praying to God, so he gave it a try. After giving the gifts, he asked people to hang around his door, and those people didn't dare to cause trouble, and business gradually improved.
After a while, he saw that those people didn't come anymore, so he gave up the idea of giving gifts. As a result, those people came back and smashed his shop, causing the customers to check out overnight. He was worried all day long. In addition to the monthly gift packages, he also had to give gifts during the holidays, and he dared not stop.
Wu Dehua walked up without stopping suddenly. Seeing that the door was still closed, Wu Dehua raised his chin towards the boss.
The boss immediately understood and asked someone to knock on the door. He knew that the person living in this room was not someone to be trifled with, so he didn't want to be the first to do so.
"Knock, knock, knock." The person being called knocked on the door gently.
"Who is it?" Li Weimin had been standing at the door. When he heard a knock, he opened the door a crack and saw a waiter standing outside. He felt a little surprised because they didn't call anyone up.
Li Weimin asked again: "What do you do?"
"Someone is looking for you." The waiter stepped aside and showed him the person behind who was looking for them.
Things just got so serious that the boss asked if he should help call the police. The people in the room said they would handle it themselves. He respected the customers' wishes. Nothing happened in the room. He believed that less trouble is worse than more, and it wouldn't affect his business.
Li Weimin saw Zhou Dayong behind Wu Dehua and said with a bad attitude: "What are you doing here? You are not welcome here!"
"What? Your family owns the hotel? We'll leave if you tell us to."
