After hearing Chang Ning's words, Li Xiaolun was secretly happy and quickly took two steps at a time to follow Chang Ning's side and back...
Being invited by the leader and walking along the leader’s street is a strong signal, which means that the leader does not hate himself and begins to recognize him slowly. Recognition is the beginning of trust. With trust, there is a possibility of being accepted by the leader. For Li Xiaolun, what else is more important than letting the new leader accept himself?
Besides, Kangle Town is not a big place. It will take less than two hours to go out with the leader. The news that Li Xiaolun accompanied Xinji to inspect Kangle Town will spread, and people will naturally look at him, Li Xiaolun will look at him differently.
The sun at noon was very poisonous. Chang Ning walked in the middle of the street as if nothing had happened, with his hands on his back, leisurely. However, Li Xiaolun was happy, but sweat on his face quickly emerged.
"I always remember that the one we are walking on is called Xingfu Street, which is two thousand meters long. This is the county party committee and county government agency, and there is the National Highway 302 connected there."
The streets are made of asphalt, with some bumpy pits and scorching sun, and many places are rising. People walk on them like stepping on soft land.
Chang Ning deliberately walked very slowly, and stopped from time to time to check the road surface. He was so focused and careful that Li Xiaolun beside him looked awe-in.
As noon approached, the sun was shining brightly again, and there were almost no pedestrians on the street. There were no four-tire cars. Occasionally, a young boy was riding a bicycle, and it was like the wind. Who would like to look for the sun slowly like Chang Ning and Li Xiaolun?
It is said to be a street, but it is actually only seven or eight meters wide. There are two or three floors of old houses on both sides, between brick and mud walls, and occasionally renovated and rebuilt. It looks like it is private and randomly tidy, but the houses are clean and tidy, and the shops are open downstairs and living in an orderly manner.
There are still many people in the small shops on both sides. They sit in the shade to cool off, smoke or joke, and are leisurely and contented, which is quite the essence of the word happiness on the street.
Someone recognized Li Xiaolun and shouted at him: "Director Li, where are you picking up money at noon?"
The people next to him burst into laughter and shouted in a continual manner, "Director Li, don't forget to return to Gongle when you pick up the money."
Li Xiaolun waved his hand and raised his face and scolded, "Go away, stay where you are cool."
Chang Ning finally left the middle of the road and walked in with a small restaurant. Li Xiaolun breathed a sigh of relief and followed him quickly while wiping his sweat.
The two of them sat down by the window, and Li Xiaolun asked: "I always remember, what do you want to eat?"
"Eat whatever you want, but you can't make it spicy." Chang Ning smiled.
When the shop owner who was walking over heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Director Li, is your friend here for the first time?"
Chang Ning smiled and nodded at Li Xiaolun. Li Xiaolun understood and pointed at Chang Ning and said to the store owner: "Boss Chen, you can read it carefully. This is the new record of our county party committee."
"Remember it often?" Boss Chen was stunned for a moment.
The middle-aged woman following Boss Chen stared at Chang Ning and blurted out without any hesitation: "Baby Note."
Boss Chen came to his senses and immediately shouted at the middle-aged woman in local dialect. The middle-aged woman's face was flushed and she bent down to apologize to Chang Ning and Li Xiaolun.
Chang Ning smiled and didn't speak. He was not angry, but the scene in front of him, which made him think of his uncle and the old man in Shuiyang Street. Sometimes his uncle doesn't speak in his mind and often causes his uncle to scold him.
However, the nickname of Doll Records was passed so quickly, but Chang Ning was very happy. Doll Records are just doll Records, which makes us look younger.
Li Xiaolun smiled at the middle-aged woman and said, "Sister Chen, I'll give us braised osmanthus fish, one Dongpo's double-cooked pork, one stir-fried vegetables, one egg flower tofu hot, two bottles of beer and two bowls of rice. Remember, I often remember not to eat spicy food, and I don't pay for it when I see spicy food."
The middle-aged woman responded with a smile, nodded to Changning and Li Xiaolun.
Boss Chen said to Chang Ning: "I'm so sorry, the country people can't speak, please forgive me."
Chang Ning shook his head, took the cigarette handed over by Boss Chen, lit the cigarette himself, took a few sips, and asked with a smile: "Boss Chen, is the business good?"
"I always remember that I thank the XX Party for the blessing. My life has improved a lot in recent years, my business is still good, and it is enough to support my family." Boss Chen said.
Li Xiaolun introduced that most of the small shops and stalls on both sides of Xingfu Street are like Boss Chen, who are mobilizing their own houses to do some small business. Every 369th day of the lunar calendar and the market day in Kangle Town, the business is very prosperous. On other days, there are not many people entering the city in the countryside, so there are basically no people.
Boss Chen is about forty years old, named Chen Wenhui. He is an old resident of Kangle Town. He has his parents, a son and a daughter. He is still in his studies. Chen Wenhui told Chang Ning that like him, the couple is both a boss and a service provider. He is busy, but one can earn 30 or 50 yuan. The whole family saves some money, which is basically enough for the family.
Li Xiaolun added: "Old Chen, isn't that your wife knows how to calculate carefully?"
"That's it, that's it." Chen Wenhui said repeatedly, "There are still food and clothing, and there is still food and clothing."
Chang Ning replied to Chen Wenhui with a cigarette, "Boss Chen, as far as you know, there are many people in the county, including Kangle Town, who go out to make a living."
Chen Wenhui said: "It's a lot. I'll remember it. I'll tell you, I've been out a few years ago, but it's so good at home. It's hard to go out. If I can live at home, no one wants to go out. We, the people of Margin, have always been home-loving. In the past few years, we didn't do much business and many of us worked. We basically went to the mines in Tongshan, Wanchuan, and Nanjiang City. There are also young people who are braver in the past two years, and some have gone to work in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone. Director Li knows that we Margin, we have no money to build houses, but we have built construction teams outside and built houses for others."
Li Xiaolun told Changning that in Wanjin County, there are seventy or eighty construction engineering teams of all sizes from the county construction company to the townships below, and seven or eight thousand employees, which is the biggest source of income for the people of the county. In recent years, the policy has been relaxed. Whoever has the ability can lead a team, affiliated with the construction company, and go outside to take on work. There are probably hundreds of small construction teams that have not been registered in the county, and at least several thousand practitioners are involved.
Chen Wenhui apologized and went to the kitchen to help.
Chang Ning asked Li Xiaolun with a smile: "Director Li, have you ever been out to visit and study in the past few years?"
Li Xiaolun said: "Changji, the county government has organized two visits to the Southern Special Zone. Two years ago and last year, each time there were forty or fifty people. Our county party committee held it once last year. However, it was not to go to the south, but to Ningzhou and Haizhou in your side. It was led by Lin Fuji. There were more than 30 people participating in it, and I was among them."
"Oh, tell me, what do you think and feel?"
Li Xiaolun knew that Chang Ning was testing him again, and after pondering for a while, he said, "Chang Ji, frankly, I have carefully observed the rural areas where you are, and they are not much different from ours. They are all poor. But why does yours develop so quickly? It is said that if you are poor, you will think of change. People here are content with poverty. I personally think that it is still people's ideas and ideas. For decades, they have lived with state relief subsidies. From some cadres to most ordinary people, they have formed inertia and inertia inertia."
Chang Ning nodded, thinking that Li Xiaolun is still a little skillful and is definitely not a mediocre person.
"Well, Comrade Xiaolun, let me tell you about the situation in Kangle Town."
Li Xiaolun heard Chang Ning call him Comrade Xiaolun instead of Director Li, who was polite, suddenly felt aroused. He often remembered that he had a new understanding of himself. Comrade Xiaolun, work harder and when will he remove the word "comrade" after Comrade Xiaolun, he will basically rest assured in the next three to five years.
Chen Wenhui and his wife delivered all the food and food. Chang Ning was eating while listening to Li Xiaolun's introduction.
Kangle Town is a thousand-year-old ancient town. National Highway 302 passing through the town was once more than a thousand years ago. More than a thousand years ago, the main transportation routes running through the north and south of Xijiang Province. The towers and temples in the town are all national-level protected cultural relics. The town has a small population, and there are only more than 30,000 administrative villages. However, the urban area is quite large. In addition to this Happy Street, there are more than ten roads and alleys, which are ancient streets that have been preserved for hundreds of years of history.
Wanjin County is known as the Eight Mountains and Two Rivers, and belongs to the typical Jiangqiu hilly landform. The mountains are covered with ridges and creeks in the territory. Kangle Town is just in the valley embraced by the mountains. Countless small valleys and streams extending from the mountains pass through the town. In other words, the entire Kangle Town is a street that was born after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the roads of other streets are built along the Xiaogou River. The entire Kangle Town is in a T-shaped shape. In the middle of Xingfu Street, a new road is being built at a right angle, leading to the Kangle River 1,000 meters away.
Changning looked at the map and knew that Kangle River is the longest river in the territory in Wanjin County except for the Jinchuan River. It gathers countless small ditches and streams, extending to the north for more than 70 kilometers, and finally connecting with the Jinchuan River. Kangle River is a seasonal river. From April to October every year, when the rainfall is abundant, it is navigable and is also the season for fishermen on both sides of the Taiwan Strait to harvest.
Lunch was finished unknowingly. When checking out, Li Xiaolun of course rushed to pay. Chang Ning stopped him, and said with a mysterious smile: "Comrade Xiaolun, I am richer than you. Rich people should not let others pay the bill."
Chen Wenhui received the money and found zero, and smiled and said, "I'm always reminded, then I'm not polite."
Chang Ning smiled again and said, "Boss Chen, the food is cooked so well. I will visit you often in the future. If you are polite to me, I guess you will definitely close the door within two weeks."
While chatting and laughing, there was a sudden noise outside, and the sound of something falling to the ground was mixed with.
