Chapter 170 I finally met him today
He took out a tissue from his pocket and carefully wiped away Ding Tingting's tears.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault, I overthought things..."
Hearing her say that, Dawei breathed a sigh of relief.
If it's just a casual dinner between friends, to get to know each other and assess each other's character, then there's absolutely no problem.
Dawei already had a decision in mind regarding Ding Tingting.
That is the three no's principle.
While maintaining a friendly relationship, it is important to safeguard the relationship with Xu Aiguo, promote the construction of the expressway in Yuanshan County, and ensure the stability of one's political resources in Guangdong Province.
"I can wipe myself." Ding Tingting snatched the tissue from his hand, pouting and saying aggrievedly, "Are we going to eat or not?"
"Go, I'll go."
"Hehe~" Tingting immediately stopped crying and laughed, then punched Dawei on the shoulder with her fist: "Hurry up and call a taxi, I'm going to be late for work."
The two got into the car, and Dawei first took her back to the provincial government building.
On the way, Tingting called home and told her elderly mother to prepare more food, and that Dawei would be coming over that evening.
After she finished speaking, Tingting told him to come around 7 p.m., and then sent her home address to Dawei.
After dropping Tingting off, Dawei returned to the hotel.
He and Wu Maocai and others booked a three-person room to save on the budget.
When he returned, he found Wu Maocai and Lin Yunxing fast asleep, snoring. Dawei didn't want to wake them, so he went to his desk and turned on his laptop.
Log in to the local forum in the neighboring city of Qinghe.
A post about Yuanshan County went viral, discussing the large-scale camphor tree planting in the county, as reported by provincial media.
David logged onto QQ and forwarded the post to a small group.
These are all his best friends from college.
What are your thoughts?
The people in the group knew what Dawei meant when he asked that question.
Those close friends immediately went to the forum to post.
"This county doesn't seem like a poor county. They plant trees, pull them up, and plant them again. Their finances seem very tight."
"The person upstairs doesn't understand. This kind of thing involves both economics and politics."
"The economy is easy to understand; people are moving around, and those selling trees make money. But how do you understand politics?"
"Isn't that easy to understand? What's the county party secretary called?"
"Oh, I see. The county party secretary is a camphor tree, so all the green trees in the county have to be camphor trees. How terrifying!"
"It's really scary. Even the trees have to follow other people's standards. The bureaucratic system in Yuanshan County is probably not under the jurisdiction of the Communist Party, but under the jurisdiction of the Zhou Dynasty."
"It seems I made the right decision to come to Qinghe City. A place like Meihua City is not suitable for development."
……
The rhythm was immediately set.
The popularity immediately surged.
It's always these scholars who stir up trouble with their pens.
Meanwhile, Zhou Xiangzhang and others in Yuanshan County were completely unaware of this.
Wu Maocai used local forums to manipulate public opinion against Lin Wangyou last time.
This time, Dawei used forums in other cities to put pressure on Meihua City. By the time the news spread to Meihua City, it had already achieved a scale effect. With more people knowing about it, it became impossible to suppress the rumors.
This kind of thing may not have a disruptive effect, but it will definitely make the opponent uneasy.
David sat in front of the computer, and two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
In my QQ contact list, Xiao Lili's avatar kept flashing.
The profile picture was a large headshot of Xiao Lili, somewhat cartoonish, and Dawei clicked on it.
Inside was a photo and two large plastic bags full of steamed buns.
"The uncles and aunts' cooking skills are getting better and better; the steamed buns are delicious."
This woman really knows how to get things done.
David rubbed his face, feeling a bit of a headache.
Judging from the woman's demeanor, there seemed to be more to come. After getting drunk that night, she didn't mention anything, which made Dawei uneasy.
"Eat more if it's delicious."
"Yeah, how are you doing in Guangzhou? Have you eaten? When are you coming back?"
"I'm on official business. I'll be back as soon as I'm done."
"Okay, there are a few personnel issues I'd like to discuss with you. Let's talk about them when you get back."
"Congratulations on your promotion, Director Xiao."
"Thank you, County Chief. I'll remember it all and watch how I perform."
Dawei closed the chat, deleted the history, and looked up to find Wu Maocai standing by the door, rubbing his sleepy eyes: "You're back, County Chief."
"Um."
"When are we going back? The hotel is asking if we want to extend our stay."
"I'll drive tonight, or go back tomorrow morning. I have to have dinner with my boss tonight."
"Okay, I'll sleep a little longer then. I'm not in a hurry to leave anyway."
"Hey, Director Wu," Dawei called out to him, gesturing for him to close the bedroom door.
Director Wu perked up immediately, closed the door, sat down in the reception room, and offered Dawei a cigarette: "What's up?"
"There's something you need to plan ahead for."
"Okay, go ahead and say it."
"So, I met with... I met with Li Taoying's ex-husband and promised him a position as the director of the Education Bureau. He might ask about it later." Dawei stammered as he spoke.
Wu Maocai nodded repeatedly, his eyes scanning Dawei up and down, immediately understanding Dawei's predicament: "Did no one hear you?"
"No, it was just him and me in the car at the time."
"Okay, then don't worry about it, I'll take care of it."
"You don't want to see him in the county, do you?"
Wu Maocai was incredibly intelligent, and he immediately guessed that Dawei was destined for great things and wouldn't keep someone like Ye Man, who had witnessed Dawei's embarrassing moments, by his side.
Moreover, when outsiders see Ye Man being promoted to such a high position, they will definitely associate it with Dawei's past use of Ye Man to deal with Li Taoying, which is also bad for Dawei's reputation.
Most importantly, Ye Manyi is easy to win over, but he can also be easily won over by others in the future, so he cannot be relied upon.
Seeing Dawei nod, Wu Maocai assured him, "Understood, leave it to me, you don't need to get involved."
"Hmm... Brother Cai, he is him, and you are you. I won't treat you like that in the future. You are different from him."
Wu Maocai was stunned for a moment, then grinned happily, pulled Dawei's hand and said gently, "Let's not talk about these things. If you treat me like this in the future, I will only reflect on where I went wrong."
As long as I'm still useful, you definitely won't bear to abandon me, hehehe..."
It was evening.
Lin Yunxing drove Dawei to the designated location.
The second brother didn't get out of the car; he waited outside.
David, carrying his pack, rang the doorbell of Ding Tingting's villa.
Da da da.
A flurry of footsteps came from inside the door.
Ding Tingting ran over to open the door in her slippers. As soon as the door opened, a bright smiling face appeared in front of her, her big white teeth shining brightly under the light.
"They're here."
Tingting happily took the things from Dawei's hands.
After Dawei entered the room, Tingting's mother, a gentle and refined woman, also came over and brought Dawei a pair of slippers.
"Comrade Dawei, hello there! I've heard Tingting talk about you so much, it's great to finally meet you today."
Dawei bowed to Ding's mother: "Hello, Auntie. I should have visited you much earlier, but I was too busy with worldly affairs to come until today."
Lin's mother smiled and beckoned Dawei to come inside.
Inside the hall, Xu Aiguo sat in the main seat with a kind smile on his face.
A man stood beside the sofa on the left, wearing a white shirt, clean and refined. Judging from his features, he was Tingting's father.
According to rank, one should shake hands with Minister Xu first, but one must first pass by Ding Tingting's father.
Dawei walked over and shook hands with Mr. Ding, saying, "Hello, Uncle Ding."
Hello, hello.
That makes sense. Today we're having dinner at Ding Tingting's house, so shaking hands with the head of the household first is appropriate.
Dawei stepped over the coffee table and came to Xu Aiguo's side. Xu Aiguo then stood up and shook hands with Dawei: "Dawei, we meet again."
