Chapter 355 Visiting the Grave
Qi Tongwei was surprised that Zhao Lichun's hometown was Haizhou.
According to regulations, it is impossible for Zhao Lichun to become the top leader of Handong.
But in the drama, he was able to serve as a member of the Standing Committee of the Handong Provincial Party Committee, Secretary of the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee, and governor for eight years and secretary for ten years. This in itself is unreasonable.
It's too long, and it will definitely breed factional forces. I can only say that it may not be so severe at this time.
Early in the morning, a Caster drove quietly into an unknown village in the countryside of Jianghe County.
In addition to the Zhao family, the accompanying personnel also included Hou Liangping and Li Dakang, and of course, Qi Tongwei, as well as some security personnel.
The villagers looked at how the "bus" entered the village with some curiosity.
The car stopped at the entrance of the village, and a group of people followed Zhao Lichun out of the car.
Zhao Lichun looked at the onlookers and did not greet anyone. The villagers basically did not recognize him.
Zhao Ruilong explained the reason to Qi Tongwei. It turned out that after Zhao Lichun was admitted to university, his parents passed away in those years, and he rarely came back since then.
After this farewell, except for occasionally coming back to pay homage to his ancestors in a low-key manner, he did not stay in the village for long.
Over time, only the older generation in the village still remembered that the Zhao family had a very promising descendant, who was probably an official, and they knew nothing else.
Amid the villagers' confusion, a group of people came to a renovated and majestic tomb.
Zhao Lichun stepped forward with red eyes, "Dad, Mom, your son is back to see you."
Everyone stood aside with solemn expressions.
Zhao Ruilong directed his followers to present tribute.
Qi Tongwei looked at Li Dakang who was silent at the side, and thought of the things in the play. Suddenly, an idea came to him. He walked over to Zhao Ruilong and poked him, "Ruilong, your ancestral home has not been taken care of for a long time. Why don't you ask someone to borrow some tools from the fellow villagers to repair it?"
Zhao Ruilong looked at the weeds around the grave and agreed, "Okay, Brother Qi, you arrange it."
The two of them had a drink last night and were quickly attracted by the money-making blueprint described by Qi Tongwei. They even became brothers in private.
Comrade Qi called an attendant and gave him a few instructions. The attendant hurried to the farmer's house and soon borrowed a hoe and a shovel.
Qi Tongwei pushed Zhao Ruilong and signaled with his eyes.
The latter was a little confused, "Brother, I don't know how to do it, you come, you come."
Qi Tongwei lowered his voice and said seriously, "What are I talking about? The descendants have to do this by themselves. Only then will the ancestors bless you."
"Hey, Brother Qi, you're not a member of the Red Star Party, so why do you believe this?"
"I don't believe it either, but the person buried here isn't my ancestor."
Zhao Ruilong choked, "But I really don't know how to use it."
Qi Tongwei glanced at Li Dakang and Hou Liangping standing nearby, "One of them is your future brother-in-law, and the other is your father's old secretary. Let them do it."
Zhao Ruilong didn't understand what Qi Tongwei was doing, "Brother Qi, you don't want to do it?"
Such a good opportunity to show off in front of him, why don't you want to give it to someone else?
"I..., we're not familiar with each other yet, it's awkward, okay, go ahead."
Zhao Ruilong took the two tools handed over by his entourage, walked up to Hou Liangping and Li Dakang, handed one to each of them, and said, "You two, please help me clear the weeds around here. I'm not very good at this."
Hou Liangping and Li Dakang were stunned.
Looking at Governor Zhao who was personally clearing weeds in front of the grave, he didn't dare to say anything more and went up with his things.
Li Dakang also comes from a rural background. This can be seen from his cousin who works as a nanny in the play. His original family is not very good, so he has done a lot of farm work and is also good at using a hoe.
Hou Liangping almost failed. When using this long-handled shovel, either the shovel was empty or the surface was too thick.
While clearing the weeds on the edge, the shovel accidentally touched the repaired cement, making a harsh sound, which made Zhao Lichun look sideways from time to time.
Hou Liangping became even more nervous, and the use of the device became even more unsatisfactory.
Zhao Lichun waved to Liu Xinjian, who stepped forward to take the shovel from Hou Liangping. "Liangping, let me do it."
Hou Liangping stood up awkwardly and gave the shovel away.
Hou Liangping doesn't have any psychological pressure. He is likely to become Zhao Lichun's son-in-law, which is what he should do as a junior.
Li Dakang didn't think it mattered either. The dead are the greatest. Besides, it was just clearing the weeds, so what did it matter?
Qi Tongwei secretly thought it was a pity that he didn't bring the latest Shengtian mobile phone or camera, otherwise he should have taken a picture.
The trip ended with a string of firecrackers. Qi Tongwei then instructed his entourage to take the tools back, and took out two hundred yuan from his pocket, telling them that they could not lend them for free.
Zhao Lichun nodded secretly. This kid is very smart and doesn't try to take credit for the work.
He saw everything that just happened.
He clearly asked someone to borrow the tools, but he didn't come out to show off. Instead, he kept trying to push the credit to Hou Liangping. It seems that the other party listened to what he said last night.
He has high political wisdom and strong economic capabilities. He is truly born for officialdom.
Thinking of this, Zhao Lichun couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It was a pity that he got married too early. If Xiaohui was promised to him, his political resources would surely be perfectly inherited, and maybe they could become another major political family in China in the future.
Seeing that the other party was having a pleasant conversation with Ruilong, it would be nice if he could be promoted to a bridge borrower.
After returning to Haizhou, Qi Tongwei happily told Gao Yuliang about this interesting story.
"Teacher, you don't know, Li Dakang can really do it. He wields a hoe better than I do. If he weren't the deputy mayor, he would be a good farmer even if he were digging the soil."
Gao Yuliang smiled, seeing through everything, "You, just do it badly.
By the way, has Zhao Ruilong looked for you?
Qi Tongwei nodded, "Yes, he wants me to help him with his business."
Gao Yuliang put away his smile and said seriously, "He is a playboy. I have heard a lot of bad news about him in Jingzhou. You'd better have less contact with him."
Qi Tongwei said: "I want to, but you know, who in Handong dares to offend this Mr. Zhao? But don't worry, teacher, I will only teach him legitimate business, and I won't get involved in other things.
Besides, with Elder Liang gone, we have to plan for the future."
"Well, you should know the limits yourself." Gao Yuliang sighed.
He understood that the student was paving the way for himself.
Zhao Lichun is so young, and he will be in charge of Handong for a long time.
If you want to be promoted to the deputy department level, you need recommendations from those below you and approval from those above you.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be difficult to hold you back for a few years.
Gao Yuliang was also thinking about his own problem. Zhao Lichun had extended an olive branch to him yesterday, but he had no intention of changing sides yet and just gave a vague answer.
Fortunately, Zhao Lichun was not very interested in him as the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, and he was only trying to win him over for Qi Tongwei.
From now on, I can only rely on him as my disciple.
