Family connections: From special recruitment by the county committee to the pinnacle of power
Chapter 155 The Art of Power
In Xu Hansheng's mind, the scene of being escorted to the execution ground in his previous life couldn't help but appear.
All sorts of past events flashed before his eyes, and Xu Hansheng couldn't help but slowly close his eyes. After a full two seconds, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at Miao Xiaofang, saying, "Manager Miao, I appreciate your kindness, but please take the gift back with you. The county is indeed investigating two projects, but before the investigation period is over, I can't be sure whether they will definitely pass the Standing Committee's review."
"Therefore, we need to wait until the survey is completed before conducting a unified inspection of the construction companies."
"This meal is on me."
Upon hearing this, Miao Xiaofang was taken aback and looked at Xu Hansheng with a puzzled expression.
Is he dissatisfied with her, or with the gift?
wrong!
She was actually one of the gifts too.
"Section Chief Xu, actually... that's not what our company meant. We just want to make friends with you..."
Before Miao Xiaofang could finish speaking, Xu Hansheng waved his hand and said, "We are already friends. A gentleman's friendship is as light as water."
"Alright, you can go back now. I will seriously consider your company."
Seeing Xu Hansheng's resolute attitude, Miao Xiaofang could no longer persist. The first time she returned the gift was just politeness; if she returned it again, it meant she really wouldn't accept it.
Continuing to pester him will only provoke Xu Hansheng's resentment, and in the end, it will only make things worse.
"Oh well."
Miao Xiaofang smiled and said, "I'll go downstairs to pay the bill now. Please enjoy your meal."
As she spoke, Miao Xiaofang picked up her handbag and walked towards the door, looking somewhat dejected.
"etc!"
Xu Hansheng spoke calmly.
Hearing Xu Hansheng call her name, Miao Xiaofang turned around with a joyful expression and looked at Xu Hansheng.
Those watery eyes shone brightly under the light.
Xu Hansheng smiled and said, "I forgot to tell you, this restaurant is owned by my family. I've already told the front desk that they won't charge you for your meal."
"I'll say it again: I appreciate your sentiments, but from now on, you and I... or rather, your company's boss, are friends."
"If it's suitable, I'll think of your company for this project. Goodbye, and don't bother seeing me off."
Even if he refuses gifts, Xu Hansheng cannot shut people out.
Previously, this company was able to pull strings in Yutong County and build two residential communities, which means they had connections and influence.
Not accepting gifts is fine, but offending people means it won't just affect one construction company.
In everything you do, leave room for maneuver for yourself and the other party. Only by not hurting others can you avoid hurting yourself in the end.
"Thank you, Section Chief Xu. I understand what you mean."
Miao Xiaofang smiled, bowed to Xu Hansheng, and then turned and walked out of the private room.
Only after Miao Xiaofang had walked far away did footsteps be heard downstairs.
Soon, the door to the private room opened, and Li Xiuru walked in.
With a bang, the door slammed shut, and Li Xiuru turned to Xu Hansheng and asked, "Hansheng, what was that woman doing just now?"
Xu Hansheng, seeing Li Xiuru's anxious expression, asked, "What's wrong, Mom? What's wrong?"
Li Xiuru said with a serious expression, "What? What's wrong? Let me tell you, that woman doesn't look like someone who can manage a household."
"I don't care what your relationship with her is, stay away from her!"
Hahaha……
Xu Hansheng couldn't help but burst into laughter, then turned to Li Xiuru and said, "Mom, you've misunderstood. She's the public relations manager of Hengyuan Construction Company, a big company in Qingshan City. Besides, she's so young and already a public relations manager, how could she possibly be interested in me?"
Li Xiuru frowned as she stared at Xu Hansheng and said, "What public relations manager? What kind of relationship can she possibly manage?"
"Don't think I don't know. Let me tell you, you've only been working here a short time. If any scandals break out, you're finished!"
When persuasion failed, Li Xiuru resorted to intimidation.
Xu Hansheng pulled out a chair and said to Li Xiuru, "Mom, come and sit down!"
Li Xiuru glanced at Xu Hansheng, walked to the chair and sat down, her eyes constantly scrutinizing him.
Xu Hansheng then took Li Xiuru's hand and said, "Mom, your son is now the section chief of the county party committee's research office. Although he doesn't have any official rank yet, he's still considered a cadre. He doesn't have any other powers, but he does have the right to submit reports to the secretary."
"All projects, big and small, in the county have to be investigated by our department, and then go through me to form a report for the secretary. So, similar things will only increase in the future."
"But don't worry, I know what to do."
Hearing this, Li Xiuru's expression softened slightly as she asked, "Do you really have that much power?"
Xu Hansheng nodded and said, "Pretty much, but it's just a suggestion; ultimately, it's up to Secretary Qi to make the final decision."
Whoops!
Wu Xiuru could hardly believe it was true. Her son had only been working for two months!
It seems like there are still a few days to go.
Do you really have that much power?
Judging from this, being an official must be really great.
It's only just begun, and people are already offering to treat us to meals and drinks, and some are even coming to us on their own initiative.
No wonder Xu Hansheng was determined to get into the county government no matter what.
"But let me tell you, you can't mess around outside. Those disreputable women are obviously sick, and if you get infected, you'll regret it."
Li Xiuru didn't know what to say. Anyway, as long as she could fool her son and make him behave himself, that would be fine.
Xu Hansheng couldn't help but laugh a few times, then said to Li Xiuru, "Mom, don't worry, your son isn't the kind of person who's unreliable. Put this meal on my tab, and I'll definitely pay you back when I get my salary!"
whispering sound!
Li Xiuru rolled her eyes at Xu Hansheng and said, "You still want to? With your meager salary, you should keep it. By the way, what did she want from you?"
Xu Hansheng thought for a moment and said calmly, "There are two projects in the county recently. She probably heard some rumors and wants to make some connections. Don't pay any attention to her."
"Also, if anyone sends anything to our house under my name, we must refuse to accept it. Our family doesn't need anything, and we won't let anyone send anything over."
"Besides, my meager salary can't buy much!"
Li Xiuru nodded and said, "You don't need to tell me that. This afternoon, a man in his thirties brought me five thousand yuan, saying that it was inconvenient for you to come to work, so he asked me to bring it to me. I returned it to him."
"We've already spent tens of thousands on your job, how could I possibly be short of his three or five thousand?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Hansheng gave a thumbs-up and said, "Mom, I must say, you're really awesome!"
"go!"
Li Xiuru slapped Xu Hansheng and said, "Alright, are you still eating? If not, I'll have the waiter clear the table. We're getting more people coming in soon, the private rooms downstairs are all full!"
