Chapter 334 Time

Good news followed one after another.

The Party Secretary of Liancheng City was promoted to Standing Committee Member of the Provincial Party Committee and Executive Vice Governor of Hainan Province.

The Gongshan elderly care project has been completed.

After an interview with the organization, Chen Yitang was tentatively transferred to serve as a member of the Standing Committee of the Liancheng Municipal Party Committee, Executive Vice Mayor, and Deputy Director-General.

Wen Yusheng was parachuted into Liancheng City as the new Party Secretary.

Although both positions were at the provincial level, my transfer from the director of the provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission to the top position in a prefecture-level city is my way of repaying the Wen family for their help.

Wen Guosheng is still young and has opportunities.

Being transferred to a prefecture-level city government and serving there for a while greatly broadens the path to future promotion to the provincial level.

The Provincial Party Committee compound.

Sister Tong is talking with Yu Qingbin, the provincial party secretary.

I appeared at the door and knocked.

"Secretary, Executive Director."

"Come in, little brother."

I stood very formally beside the two of them.

"Sit down, Xiao Shen."

Yu Qingbin turned to Sister Tong and said, "We met Professor Cheng a few years ago. It's hard to believe that today's young people are even better than their predecessors."

Yang Xiaotong nodded; she naturally knew that Yu Qingbin's words were implied.

"My sensitivity and ability to control the economy still need a lot of refinement in the details."

"Time is the best healer. We have achieved our current level of knowledge and experience step by step."

"Soon."

The two of them smiled knowingly.

Lotus City.

Upon returning here, the first thing I did was go to Li Tie's house. Zhao Zifeng said on WeChat that Li Tie's father had passed away.

You won't attend a wedding without being invited.

Funerals are attended uninvited.

Li Tie's family.

I saw many familiar faces: Zhang Luode, Zhao Chu, Liu Haitao, and Zhao Zifeng.

"You're back?"

"Um."

When acquaintances meet, they offer each other a cigarette first.

Because the atmosphere was rather solemn, no one chatted much.

"Have you presented the gift yet?"

"I've already been there, you can go directly there."

I nodded and walked over to the old man from the Li family.

"Young man, how much?"

"Could I see the first few pages?"

"Find it yourself."

I scrolled through two pages and found the names of Zhang Luode and a few others; they all had the number 1000, so it seems they had planned it together.

However, I was not notified.

I originally wanted to go with them, but then I thought about that time I met Li Tie alone and how embarrassed he was.

"Ten thousand."

I know that once I spend this money, I will emotionally sever ties with these old friends.

They definitely know, but they won't say it.

Since we can't express it, we will gradually drift apart.

That's true. They didn't even inform me about discussing the gift money, so how can it be considered estrangement?

Because they were already estranged.

I met with Li Tie.

I didn't know what to say, but I saw the weariness in this man's eyes and the relief in his expression.

Losing money and incurring debt.

She has cared for her father, who is unable to take care of himself, for so many years without ever leaving him.

I respect him as a true man.

This is a moral and ethical issue, which cannot be explored in depth or commented on.

As the saying goes, when you sell your house and everything you own to save your father, the doctor says that even if he is cured, he won't live past the Spring Festival.

How would you choose?

Therefore, I respect Li Tie as a true man.

Despite his business failures, his betrayal of friends, and his tragic life, these flaws alone are enough to forgive and forget.

"They're gone?"

"Okay, I'm leaving."

There wasn't much small talk; coming here to present gifts felt more like a way of showing respect for the friendship.

Judge by actions, not intentions; by intentions, no one in the world is perfect.

Once the person has arrived and the gift has been given, there's no need to demand anything more from the other party.

"What are your plans for the future?"

"I'm working to pay back the money, but I owe a lot. I might never be able to pay it all back in this lifetime."

Actually, I have an impulse to pay off all of Li Tie's debts and then let him start anew.

However, I couldn't say anything when facing Li Tie.

I'll wait, until he begs me.

It wasn't that he was condescending; rather, he took the initiative to ask me for help, so he wouldn't have to bear too much burden in his life.

I don't owe him anything.

But I have money now, and if he just asks, I'll help him clear all his debts.

Unfortunately, he had no way out.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, I left.

afterwards.

I reflected on the logic behind my actions.

Why, given my wealth, do I not proactively help Li Tie pay off all his debts?

Because I'm not a jerk.

Offering help to strangers is called kindness.

Offering help to an acquaintance is considered being a masochist.

The reasons for this are not clear.

My heart began to grow cold.

Inside the Maybach.

"Xiao Qi, are you married yet?"

"Not yet, I just started dating someone."

"Hehe, hurry up, Xiaomai's child is already in elementary school."

Xiaoqi hesitated in the car.

I saw his hesitant expression through the rearview mirror.

"Speak your mind."

My long-standing habit of keeping my word made Xiaoqi's heart tremble.

"Brother Xiaomai is going through a divorce with his wife... He won't let us interfere, and he won't let us tell the boss either."

"What happened?"

Xiao Qi remained silent, but I already knew the reason.

Sigh.

"Let's go to the company."

Ya Hong established a disciplinary committee department, but it was independent of Ya Hong's administrative system.

Its main functions are disciplinary supervision and performance review.

This is essential for a company to grow bigger.

Xiaomai is the head of this department, and all the people who used to work for him have been crammed into the company.

That's perfect, that's the balance.

Ya Hong Discipline Inspection Department.

office.

Pushing open the door, I saw Xiaomai sitting there, with her female secretary reporting on her work beside her.

Seeing me enter the house, she instinctively stood up and called out, "Brother, when did you get here?"

Then, he looked at the female secretary beside him and said, "You can go out now."

I waved my hand: "No need, call your brothers and have dinner together tonight."

"what?"

The wheat hadn't reacted yet.

"Several of our brothers are stationed in other cities."

"We're all within the province, and there are still a few hours until dinner time, so we can leave now."

"Okay, I'll call and let them know."

I got up to leave, but as I reached the door, I suddenly turned back and asked, "What's your name?"

"Zhang Xiaoli, boss."

"Let's go together tonight."

The girl named Zhang Xiaoli had a joyful expression on her face.

Evening, at the restaurant.

A room for more than twenty people.

I brought Qiuya with me.

Wheat and his group of brothers.

It’s not lively.

Or rather, it had been a long time since it had been this lively. After Ya Hong Group grew bigger, Xiaomai and his brothers had to spend less and less time together.

They've all grown up, have their own families, and their own lives.

He raised his glass.

"I'll just say a few words."

The lively scene instantly fell silent, and everyone looked at me.

I looked at each person one by one, and I could accurately call out their names.

"Wheat, Xiaoqi, Gangzi, Monkey, Glasses..."

Until the very end, everyone had called out the name.

"Some of you we see often, some we've only met a few times. But Qiuya has a record of the contributions you've made to me and the company, and the company and I will never forget any of the brothers who have contributed to the company. This first toast is to your contributions to the company and to me!"

"Cheers!"
