I, Qi Tongwei, will never yield, even if it means defeating fate by half a move.

Chapter 521 Meng Zhiqiang Wants to Improve



Chapter 521 Meng Zhiqiang Wants to Improve

"You're welcome to visit often, Secretary Meng. Please have a seat!"

Qi Tongwei walked from behind his desk to the reception area and said with a smile.

"Xiao Wu, make some tea for Secretary Meng!"

Qi Tongwei looked at Wu Zihao, who had brought Meng Zhiqiang in, and said.

Because Luo Kang was busy with research and development at the telecommunications company, Qi Tongwei chose a cadre from the county party committee office to serve him.

After two months of leadership reshuffling, Luo Kang will be released and Wu Zihao will officially become his secretary.

"Okay, secretary!"

Wu Zihao nodded, then brewed a cup of tea and came in.

"Secretary Meng, please have some tea!"

After putting down the tea, Wu Zihao left.

"Secretary Qi, the county has changed a lot recently. I almost thought I came to the wrong place."

Meng Zhiqiang sighed.

Before he left, Xichun County was just undergoing rapid changes in the new town.

When he returned this time, he saw that many places in the old town had been demolished.

“Secretary Meng, you know the county’s development plan. It’s not that exaggerated.”

Qi Tongwei said.

Many plans had been made long ago, and Meng Zhiqiang was aware of them.

What he probably didn't expect was that the county had started the demolition of the old town.

"Secretary Qian, how are things going in Qile County?"

Qi Tongwei showed concern for Meng Zhiqiang.

Xichun County's reputation has long spread throughout Sichuan Province, and Meng Zhi emphasized that Qile County might be a place where he could undertake a heavy workload.

"It's alright, thank you for your concern, Secretary Qi!"

After all, I'm just a deputy secretary, so I don't face the same pressure as my colleagues in the county government.

However, Qile County is underdeveloped.

It has the smallest total output, the weakest financial resources, and the lowest level of industrialization.

Previously, it was at the bottom of the rankings in Jiaozhou. Now, even after being incorporated into the newly established bookstore, it remains at the bottom.

I went back to my parents' home this time to seek help.

I heard that the county is making great efforts to repair rural roads, and I would like to ask the county to help repair this road between our two counties properly!

Meng Zhiqiang said.

He has been working in Xichun County since he started working, and Xichun County is indeed his hometown.

Logically speaking, as the deputy secretary of the county party committee, he shouldn't be involved in road construction.

After all, this is a matter for the county government, and the deputy county head in charge of transportation should be asked to find a solution.

But after Liao Changyong fell from power, he lost his backer.

Therefore, during the last reshuffle in Xichun County, he was directly transferred to Qile County as the deputy secretary of the county party committee.

The leadership transition is imminent, and if he doesn't find a way to improve his chances, he won't have many opportunities for advancement.

Taking advantage of his current familiarity with the main leaders of Xichun County, he wanted to quickly resolve the biggest obstacle hindering the development of Qile County: the transportation problem.

In this way, he can take advantage of the reshuffle to become the county magistrate.

Once the transportation problems in Qile County are solved, Qile's development will be much easier.

When Qile County develops, he will be able to continue to make progress.

However, given the limited resources of Qile County, it is impossible to properly repair the highway connecting Qile County and Xichun County.

Since the bookstore was newly established, it couldn't take care of Qile County for the time being, so Qile County had to find its own solution.

Qi Le County's solution was to have him use his relationship with hope Chun County to ask hope Chun County for help.

Xichun County is making great efforts to build rural roads. When he arrived, he saw that the road from Mingxi Township to the county seat was already under construction.

The roadbed is very wide; it's not simply a provincial highway, but a national highway.

If the national highway were extended to Qile County, it would greatly improve the transportation conditions in Qile County and promote its development.

Now, the city is also troubled by the development of Qile County. If he solves the transportation problem, the city will pay more attention to him.

In addition, since he was transferred from Xichun County, the city will definitely promote him to county head in order to ensure that Xichun County can help with the road construction.

“Secretary Meng, we have worked together before. If you ask me for help, I certainly cannot refuse.”

Here's what I'll say: I'll discuss it with County Chief Xia and see if we can extend the road leading to Mingxi Township to the border between our two counties.

The section within Qile County should be repaired; your county should find a way to fix the damaged parts, which will improve the transportation conditions in Qile County.

Then, your county should try to get the road repaired by appealing to the city and province authorities.

Qi Tongwei said.

Although Governor Ye Ruyun requested that Xichun County build the highway to Qile County, he could not tell Meng Zhiqiang directly.

He needs to win people's favors.

We need to make Qile County, and even Shucheng City, aware of the difficulties involved, so as to help Meng Zhiqiang achieve his goal of progress.

"Thank you, Secretary Qi. Do you think it possible to extend the road to Mingxi Township further, to Yanqiao Township?"

Meng Zhiqiang said.

Although he was very disappointed, he still wanted to try.

Xichun County extended the highway from the county seat to the border of the two counties, which only benefits the villages in Mingxi Township along the way.

It provides some help to Qile County, but not much.

Only by extending the highway from the county seat to Mingxi Township to Yanqiao Township can Qile County be of considerable help.

At least the transportation conditions in Yanqiao Township have been greatly improved, allowing Yanqiao Township to develop rapidly.

“Secretary Meng, I can’t make the decision to extend the highway from the county seat to Mingxi Township to Yanqiao Township on my own.”

Qi Tongwei said.

He wanted Meng Zhiqiang to know that things wouldn't be easy.

"Xiao Wu, go and see if County Chief Xia is in his office. If he is, ask him to come over."

Also, please make arrangements for the canteen to prepare lunch; I'll be hosting Secretary Meng at noon!

Qi Tongwei called Wu Zihao in.

"Okay, secretary!"

Wu Zihao nodded and then went out.

"Secretary Qi, you wanted to see me?"

Xia Deqing arrived shortly afterward.

"Secretary Meng is here; he wants to discuss cooperation with us!"

Qi Tongwei said, then brewed a cup of tea for Xia Deqing and added tea for Meng Zhiqiang.

"Secretary Meng, how's it going in Qile County?"

Xia Deqing showed concern for Meng Zhiqiang.

"It's alright, thank you for your concern, County Chief Xia."

Meng Zhiqiang said.

"County Chief Xia, Secretary Meng wants our help to build a highway between the two counties."

I just had a brief discussion with Secretary Meng. Our county can extend the highway from the county seat to Mingxi Township to the border between the two counties.

But Secretary Meng wants us to extend this highway to Yanqiao Township. I'd like to hear your thoughts.

Qi Tongwei explained the situation.

“Secretary Qi, since Secretary Meng has personally spoken up, it would be unreasonable for us not to help.”

"Let's agree to Secretary Meng's request to extend the highway from the county seat to Mingxi Township to Yanqiao Township."

Xia Deqing said.

He had already discussed the issue of repairing the highway from Xichun County to Qile County with Qi Tongwei yesterday.

Qi Tongwei understood what he meant: since Meng Zhiqiang had come to them for help, they would do him a favor.

"Thank you, County Chief Xia!"

Meng Zhiqiang said happily.

Xichun County agreed to extend the highway from the county seat to Mingxi Township to Yanqiao Township, so his trip wasn't in vain.

With this achievement, he was confident that he could compete for the position of county head in the upcoming election.

"You're welcome, Secretary Meng!"

However, the land acquisition and demolition within Yanqiao Township need to be resolved by Qile County.

Xia Deqing said that Qile County should also contribute.

“No problem, County Chief Xia, I will personally handle the land acquisition and relocation in Yanqiao Township.”

Meng Zhiqiang assured him.
