Chapter 52 [Being an official and doing things](2/2)

An Zhiyuan looked at the mountains and rivers of Heishanzi through the car window and couldn't help but sigh: "This is so beautiful. After a hundred years, I plan to bury my ashes here and enjoy the freshness of the quiet air in the forest every day. What a pleasant thing it would be."

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "I can help you decide on this matter. How big is the land you want? One acre or two acres?"

An Zhiyuan said happily: "Xiao Zhang, Xiao Zhang, I don't want to be labeled as a landlord after I die. Our An family has already put on the hat of a bandit, and it's really enough for future generations to bear it."

The two laughed loudly in the same voice.

An Zhiyuan said: "Xiao Yao has a bad temper. Please don't mind what happened last night."

Zhang Yang said: "She has asthma?"

When talking about this, An Zhiyuan couldn't help but sigh: "I have had asthma since I was a child. This child is pitiful. Her mother died early. Our An family has so many children but only one girl, so they all spoiled her and spoiled her."

Zhang Yang whispered: "Old Old Man, when I took her pulse last night, I found that her meridians were blocked in her body. You should know this, right?"

An Zhiyuan nodded: "She has a congenital meridian occlusion, and there are many men in the An family, but she is the only one girl. In fact, before Xiao Yao, my generation had two daughters all died in cradles. My five sons had seven daughters, but without exception, the young man died young. The oldest was 20 years old. According to Western medicine, it was because the girl had a defect in the congenital chromosome. I learned some medical theory in the past. According to my discussion with other famous Chinese medicine experts, I found that they had a common characteristic that they all had different degrees of meridian occlusion, which is the natural vein in martial arts. Xiao Yao's condition was the most serious, but I didn't expect that she had lived to this day. From my perspective, she might only have five years of life at most..." An Zhiyuan couldn't help feeling sad when talking about this.

Zhang Yang didn't expect An Yuchen's fate to be so unfortunate, and his previous disgust towards her couldn't help but relieve a lot: "Old An, do she know?"

"Of course I know that this child is very smart and can't hide anything from her. The more I know that her life is shorter than others, the stronger her temperament is. There is no way for me, a grandfather." An Zhiyuan sighed and said, "Now I am also happy, human life is destined. As long as the little demon lives happily every day, why should I care too much? Let her do anything..."

Zhang Yang was silent. It seemed that every family had their own misfortune. As a wealthy family like An Zhiyuan, there were also difficult things that could not be solved. Zhang Yang had seen this natural vein in classics in the past and had seen several treatment methods, but none of them had the exact effect. Zhang Yang began to think about it. If he could help An Yuchen cure her stubborn disease, there would definitely be no suspense to make An old invest in Chunyang with this condition.

Old An said: "I really want to thank you for this incident!"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Why do you have to say polite words by Mr. An? We are all our own people!"

Old An looked at Zhang Yang meaningfully and said, "I don't want to invest in my hometown. Do you still think I am my own?"

Zhang Yang laughed: "Old An, you are right. In fact, investment and family affection have no internal connection. Although you were Chunyang, you have no obligation to invest in Chunyang. As a businessman, you first consider economic interests. I have now fully understood your decision." Although he said generously, he was still full of regrets. My political achievements! I worked hard for a long time, it seems that I have to get a bamboo basket.

An Zhiyuan smiled and nodded, and he whispered: "After my investigation, Chunyang is indeed not suitable for investing in industry, but is it a waste not to develop such a good tourism resource in Qingtaishan? This is a gift from God to the people of Heishan. I plan to cooperate with the Chunyang County Government to invest in the development of Qingtaishan tourism projects."

Zhang Yang suddenly stepped on the brake, his face full of incredible expressions. He had no hope for Mr. An, but unexpectedly, suddenly the future was clear and the road was changing.

Because of the sudden brake, An Zhiyuan leaned forward due to inertia and almost hit the windshield, and said with a smile: "If you messed up my head, I might not remember what I said just now."

Zhang Yang was surprised and happy, nodded repeatedly and said, "Don't worry, Old Man, I will ensure that your old age is safe!"

An Zhiyuan laughed happily. After the car restarted, he leaned on the seat and said, "Actually, when I came back in 1988, I had a preliminary idea. This time I went to Qingyun Peak twice and had a deeper understanding of the tourism resources of Qingtaishan. I didn't expect that in addition to natural resources, there were also cultural and historical landscapes here."

Zhang Yang thought he was talking about Heifengzhai and laughed in his heart. This old man was probably thinking about letting his father enjoy the glory after his death. Now, Zhang Daguan is in a good mood. As long as An Zhiyuan agrees to invest, even if he rebuilds Heifengzhai on Qingyun Peak, it has nothing to do with him.

After sending Mr. An to Mingzhu Hotel, Zhang Yang called Li Changyu as soon as possible and reported the good news to him. After Li Changyu heard this, he could not hide his excitement. This was a heavy gift for him. He was about to go to Jiangcheng to take office. If Mr. An invested in him before leaving office, it would be a shining political achievement. If he went to Jiangcheng with such political achievements, his back would be much straighter and his confidence would be much more. After Li Changyu calmed down, he gave Zhang Yang a task that must be completed: "Zhang Yang, arrange for me to meet Mr. An as soon as possible!"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Old An also wants to meet you. At 3:00 pm, I will take Old An there to wait on time."

Li Changyu is now beginning to thank God for letting him meet Zhang Yang. As he contacted him over time, Li Changyu found that Zhang Yang not only had a unique impulse of young people, but he was indeed very capable. Since 1988, Jiangcheng and even Pinghai Province have tried to persuade Old An to invest in his hometown. However, this stubborn old man has always refused politely for any consideration. He doesn't know what methods Zhang Yang used to impress the stubborn old man. Thinking of Zhang Yang's bright sunny smile, Li Changyu couldn't help but smile. What could a young man who could change himself in a subtle way?

Since the accident with Ge Chunli on the side of Chunshui River, Li Changyu has deliberately avoided this place. If it weren't for meeting Mr. An, he wouldn't have come here again.

Mr. An’s low-key style is exactly what Li Changyu wants. Although he did not go to Jiangcheng to take up his post, his departure has become a foregone conclusion. Now he is in the final work handover period. Secretary Li has his own plans. Before leaving Jiangcheng, he strives to reach a consensus with Mr. An and put a perfect end to his political journey in Chunyang. He will not let the successor county party secretary Yang Shouyi take advantage of this in vain.

Li Changyu's purpose of this trip was not even known. When he arrived at Boyun Wharf, Li Changyu asked Liu Haitao to wait in place and walked slowly towards the wharf. Although he deliberately advanced ten minutes, when he arrived at Boyun Wharf, he found that Zhang Yang had arrived. There was a pleasure boat parked on the wharf. This was a cruise ship that was purchased this spring. There were eight boats in the entire Chunshui River. However, most people in the county were not interested in this kind of cruise ship. Except for Sunday, there were basically no business.

Zhang Yang waved to Li Changyu and welcomed him to the pleasure boat. An Zhiyuan was sitting leisurely in the cabin. Seeing Li Changyu coming in, he stood up politely and reached out his hand. Li Changyu walked forward two steps and shook hands with An enthusiastically and said, "Old An, I have long admired your old name!"

An Zhiyuan smiled and joked: "I have been looking forward to you, Chunyang's parents, for a long time!"

The two sat down at the table with a smile. Zhang Yang asked the boatman to drive the boat and lowered the roller blind from outside, and the cabin became a temporary private space.

An Zhiyuan poured a cup of tea for Li Changyu. Li Changyu took it politely and smiled and said, "Old An's whereabouts are really erratic. It has been more than half a month since I heard that Old An came to Jiangcheng. However, every time I want to meet Old An, I always have a chance to meet him. I can only sigh that Old An is like a dragon who sees his head but not his tail!"

An Zhiyuan laughed loudly. It was his first time meeting with Li Changyu, but from Li Changyu's extraordinary conversation, he could see that this person was definitely not a mediocre person. An Zhiyuan did not go straight to the point, but looked at Zhang Yang outside the curtain with a smile and said, "Now I have learned it. There are no weak soldiers under the strong generals. Secretary Li can reuse young cadres like Director Zhang to prove that your vision is extraordinary."

Li Changyu showed a humble smile and thought to himself, it was not that I valued him, but this guy was forced to rely on me, but he was not disgusted with Zhang Yang at all, but he felt a sense of gratitude. Zhang Yang was like a piece of political uncensored jade. Sooner or later, he would exude the glory he deserved. He had realized that while he helped Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang was also helping him. It can even be said that he helped him even more. Li Changyu said: "Young people are also aggressive and motivated, but they are still lacking in work experience and need to continue to exercise and study."

An Zhiyuan did not agree with Li Changyu's opinion. He shook his head and said, "I don't agree with your opinion. In recent years, I have come into contact with many leading cadres in the mainland. Most of them have given me the impression that they are calm and creative. Maybe I am not saying anything appropriate."

Li Changyu smiled and said, "Old Old Man, but it's okay. What our Communist Party cadres advocate is criticism and self-criticism!"

"Okay, since Secretary Li is so refreshed, I don't need to say some flattery. The officialdom in the mainland is approachable, but I think this word is the most complicated. People are divided into different levels. Everyone says that everyone is equal, but they still unconsciously divide people into levels. Now that the country advocates reform and opening up, every leading cadre will shout the slogan of reform and opening up, but they may not understand the true meaning of reform and opening up. Jiangcheng advises me to invest, Chunyang advises me to invest, have you ever thought about the direction of my investment before you plan to convince me to invest? I think the psychology of many officials is that as long as I bring my investment, this is his political achievements, and this is his credit. As for what this fund does, what kind of economic and social benefits will be produced in the end, it is not within their jurisdiction."

Li Changyu fell into deep thought. Although An Zhiyuan was talking about a common phenomenon, he also had such a mentality. He longed for political achievements and wanted to leave a brilliant end at the end of Chunyang's political career. What is the significance of An Lao's investment to him? The first thing he considered was not to seek welfare for the people of Chunyang, but to use the halo of this investment to illuminate his career ahead of him. When Li Changyu heard An Lao's words, he felt a little ashamed.

An Zhiyuan said: "The officialdom in the mainland also gives me the impression that the hierarchy between superiors and subordinates is strict, which makes many officials become cautious in their behavior. They have to consider the preferences of the upper-level leaders in everything they do and strive to be comprehensive. So I said they are more calm, but they are not groundbreaking. It makes me feel that most of the time, the officials in the mainland are officials, not doing things!"

Li Changyu sighed and said, "The process of reform is also a process of gradual change in the ideological concepts of cadres. Mr. An should understand more!"

An Zhiyuan smiled and said, "So I said that young cadres like Zhang Yang with such pioneering spirit are really commendable. Secretary Li has a keen eye for talent!"

Li Changyu smiled and thought to himself that Zhang Yang had given Mr. An some ecstasy medicine, which made the old man praise him.

The conversation between the two finally turned to the topic. An Zhiyuan told Li Changyu about his initial concept. He wanted to gradually develop Qingtai Mountain into a famous tourist attraction in Pinghai and Beiyuan provinces within three years, radiating to the surroundings with the two provinces as the center, and strive to become a nationally renowned attraction within five years.

Li Changyu whispered: "Developing the tourism industry is undoubtedly forward-looking, environmentally friendly, green and pollution-free. And once the operation is successful, future generations will benefit greatly. However, I have also solicited opinions from many experts, and the current conditions of Qingtaishan are not suitable for tourism."

An Zhiyuan smiled and said, "The conditions are suitable, who will ask me to invest?" Li Changyu laughed.

An Zhiyuan said: "After I go back, I will come up with the board of directors as soon as possible, starting with improving the road to Qingtaishan. During this period, I will form a professional team to comprehensively plan how to package and promote Qingtaishan's tourism plan, and strive to make Qingtaishan's tourism industry bigger and stronger in the shortest time."

Li Changyu asked carefully: "It takes a huge amount of funds to complete this. How much does Mr. An plan to invest?"

An Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I estimate that the initial investment in the first three years will be about 200 million yuan. As for the construction of hot spring hotels, repairing historical sites, and various tourism supporting facilities in the future, the total investment will be about 1 billion yuan."

When Li Changyu heard the number of 1 billion, his heart was pounding. You should know that in 1991, the total fiscal revenue of their county was only 98 million. The amount that Mr. An said was amazing. Such investment intensity should be second to none, not to mention Chunyang, even in Pinghai. If Mr. An’s investment can be realized, then such political achievements will be enough to shock him in Pinghai Province.

Although Li Changyu was excited, there was no sign of it on the surface. He took a sip of the slightly cool tea channel: "If Mr. An decides to develop Qingtaishan, I can guarantee that all departments of the Chunyang government will fully cooperate with Mr. An's work."

An Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I heard that Secretary Li is about to go to Jiangcheng?"

Li Changyu couldn't help but reexamine the old man in front of him. An Zhiyuan was indeed not simple. It seemed that before he made the final investment decision, he had conducted a detailed investigation on all aspects of investment. Li Changyu felt alert in his heart. If An Zhiyuan insisted on investment because he was leaving Chunyang, wouldn't this good thing fall on Yang Shouyi? Li Changyu was obviously unwilling to accept that such a result appeared. He slowly put down his teacup and smiled indifferently: "Even if I went to Jiangcheng, the work I have done would not be abandoned halfway, so Old An doesn't have to worry."

An Zhiyuan looked out the curtain, and Zhang Yang leaned against the pillar to chat with the boss of the boat. An Zhiyuan said: "I believe Zhang Yang. As long as you leaders give him enough space for activities, I think the tourism industry in Taishan will be started soon."

Li Changyu was also a little puzzled. He didn't know what luck Zhang Yang had, but why everyone favored him so much, of course, including himself. While Li Changyu sighed, he also understood that he could not show excessive desire for investment, otherwise it would allow Old An to see through his intentions. He smiled and said, "Old An, I hope your investment plan can be brought out as soon as possible. I will do my best to promote this matter at that time."

An Zhiyuan picked up the briefcase from behind, opened the file bag, and took out a plan that had been made: "The initial intention has been taken out, Secretary Li took it back and took it out. If there is nothing wrong with it, we can sign a letter of intent for cooperation at any time!"

Li Changyu's face was full of surprise. He really didn't expect An Zhiyuan to do things so easily, and he could simply be described as decisive and decisive.

An Zhiyuan laughed at himself: "Do you think I'm impatient? Don't forget, I'm the son of a bandit, so I'm naturally a little bandit-like!"

"Don't you need to discuss it with the board of directors?"

"I have been inspected many times, and my board of directors is just a one-man show. No one will object to what I decided."

After Li Changyu left, Zhang Yang sent Mr. An back to the hotel. Mr. An seemed in a good mood and burst into laughter from time to time.

Zhang Yang still showed some interest in Mr. An’s plan: “How many years do you plan to recover your costs in investing in Qingtaishan?”

An Zhiyuan smiled and said, "It's hard to say, ten years, twenty years!" He pointed to the briefcase: "There is still an intention inside, you can take it to see!"

Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "Anyway, I know that what you are sure of is profitable. It seems that I need to prepare some money to invest in Qingtaishan."

An Zhiyuan laughed and said, "I remember that mainland officials are not allowed to do business."

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Business is not allowed, and he didn't say investment is not allowed. I heard that Mr. An is doing business that throws in 100 yuan and takes out 10,000 yuan. Now I throw in 10,000 yuan, will he become a millionaire in the future?"

"If you really have such a mind, wait until you help me build the scenic spot as soon as possible, and I will give you 10% of the shares!"

Zhang Yang stuck out his tongue, then shook his head: "You always bribe state cadres, we don't play like this!"

An Zhiyuan said with great interest: "Xiao Zhang, it seems that you have great ambitions. Do you want to become a high-ranking official in the future?"

Official Zhang rarely showed humility: "Everything depends on luck now!" The expression on his face had already revealed his yearning for the official position.

An Zhiyuan whispered: "Zhang Yang, I always believe that people do not depend on how big the official they are, but on how big the big things they do!"
