Ruan Haiqing finished the sauna and received a full massage. When he was doing a foot massage in the rest room, Wu Dayu walked in quietly and lay down on the lounge chair next to him.

Reaching for Ruan Haiqing's valuable box of cigarettes, Ruan Haiqing suddenly woke up with his eyes closed to rest.

He couldn't help pinching his temples and said with emotion: "As people get older, they lose their ability to drink. If you drink some alcohol, your head will hurt."

Wu Dayu hurriedly said: "You are only forty years old. You are in the prime of life and your career is on the rise. This wine is just a mouthwash for you. You are being modest."

"Dayu, please stop flattering me." He said this, and Ruan Haiqing felt happy in his heart. He was being carried in a sedan chair, and anyone was willing to listen to nice words.

Wu Dayu put the cigarette to Ruan Haiqing's mouth and lit it for him.

Ruan Haiqing took a deep breath. In the blue smoke, he suddenly remembered something and asked casually: "You seem to have told me about Li Yuanlang, what was it?"

Upon seeing this, Wu Dayu ordered the female technician who was giving Ruan Haiqing a pedicure: "Go out first and close the door."

The female technician agreed, packed up her things and left, closing the private room door behind her.

"Ge Zheng told me that Li Yuanlang went to Shenshui Township and had dinner at Wankelai."

"Li Yuanlang is in Shenshui Township?" Ruan Haiqing suddenly sat up, touched his chin and said nothing.

"County Chief Ruan, what's wrong with you?" Wu Dayu looked at Ruan Haiqing in confusion.

"Why did he go to Deep Water Township?" Ruan Haiqing said to himself, "There is nothing worth paying attention to in Deep Water Township, unless"

Wu Dayu followed Ruan Haiqing's analysis, his thoughts jumped quickly, his eyes lit up, he looked at Ruan Haiqing, and almost said three words in unison: "Molin Garden!"

"He went to Molin Garden?"

Ruan Haiqing immediately picked up his cell phone and dialed a number and went out, "Hey, did anyone go to Molin Garden this morning? That's not what I'm asking about, it's about people who don't have a pass."

The other party didn't know what he said. Ruan Haiqing put down his phone and shook his head: "Li Yuanlang didn't go."

"That's good." Wu Dayu breathed a sigh of relief.

Ruan Haiqing did not think so, "It is not a good sign that Li Yuanlang pays attention to Molin Garden. At least he is interested in this place."

Wu Dayu smiled disapprovingly and said: "So what if he pays attention? Sima Wenhan is not a soft persimmon. A county party secretary wants to touch him? Unless Li Yuanlang doesn't want to do it anymore."

"This is indeed the case, but we cannot take it lightly." Ruan Haiqing said: "It seems that we should report this matter to Boss Sima to prevent him from being passive."

Wu Dayu shook his head and said: "Sima Wenhan is very arrogant, and we are not qualified to talk to him directly. County Magistrate Ruan asked Li Yuanlang to poke a hornet's nest, and he didn't know the pain until he stung him with big bumps on his face."

Ruan Haiqing nodded deeply, "What you said makes sense. I just want to test Sima Wenhan's ability to see if he is as powerful as he said."

He immediately put out half of the cigarette in the ashtray held by Wu Dayu, with a sneer on his lips.

Just as Li Yuanlang expected, he originally planned to leave after eating, but Ge Zheng's move alarmed Shenshui Township. Most of the team members rushed to Wanke Lai and surrounded Li Yuanlang and others tightly.

How to eat this meal!

As a last resort, Li Yuanlang had no choice but to go to the township government conference room, accompanied by the township chief Ge Zheng and others.

I listened to the report made by Ge Zheng on behalf of the township party committee and township government, and had a brief chat with everyone.

It took more than an hour to complete this round of work.

Declining Ge Zheng's warm invitation to stay for dinner, Li Yuanlang and his party returned to Wuma County.

In the car, Li Yuanlang asked Wu Liushui: "Who paid the bill for the meal?"

Wu Liushui said: "It's me. As soon as Deputy Mayor Zhou arrived, I went to pay the bill. I was worried that I would be late and they would pay the bill for us."

Li Yuanlang nodded with satisfaction, Wu Liushui's response was smart and thoughtful.

When I got home, it was already dark.

Li Yuanlang watched the videos and photos taken during the day for a long time, standing in front of the window and thinking hard.

In fact, as soon as he took office, he found among the things Gao Canru brought that he reported the illegal behavior of destroying forests and mountains in Molin Garden.

It's just that he is curious why the relevant departments turned a blind eye and allowed this behavior to continue to ferment despite the fact that Molin Garden has existed for so long.

Just when Li Yuanlang was at his wits' end, someone sent a professional document to his home.

The land occupied by Molin Garden was originally affiliated to the Wangshan Forest Farm of the Provincial General Administration of Forestry. Later, the Provincial General Administration of Forestry separated the government and enterprises, divested the relevant institutions and forest land, and transferred them to local governments.

& nb/that is, this forest land is currently under the jurisdiction of the Forestry Bureau of Uma County.

How could Li Yuanlang ignore such illegal behavior in the place where he was in charge?

He thought again and again, then picked up the phone and called Liu Tianfu's cell phone.

"Magistrate Tianfu, are you at home?"

Liu Tianfu said: "I'm at home and having dinner."

Li Yuanlang said: "I have something I want to talk to you about. Is it convenient?"

"Oh, Secretary Li, this can't be done. I'd better go to your place."

Liu Tianfu's reaction was normal.

Since ancient times, when subordinates go to their superiors, it is a summons.

There is no reason for superiors to subordinates.

Hearing Liu Tianfu's frightened voice, Li Yuanlang smiled and said, "Mr. Tianfu, this is not at work. It is after get off work time. It is a normal visit between colleagues. There is not much to say. In this way, I will bring a bottle of wine and we will drink. chat."

Liu Tianfu wanted to be polite, but he couldn't stand Li Yuanlang's insistence, so he had to give up.

Li Yuanlang happened to have Yunshui Daqu at his home, so he picked up a bottle and left the house and went straight to Liu Tianfu's home.

Liu Tianfu and Li Yuanlang live in the same building. This is a residential building for county leaders. There is only one household on each floor and the area is relatively large.

Liu Tianfu also lives on the third floor, in the unit next door.

It was Liu Tianfu himself who opened the door.

He and his wife enthusiastically let Li Yuanlang in. Liu Tianfu's wife was wearing an apron and seemed to be cooking in the kitchen.

Li Yuanlang asked in confusion: "Aren't you eating?"

Liu Tianfu smiled and rubbed his hands, "I didn't know you were coming, so I asked my family to add some dishes. The children live in school. We usually have simple meals, but tonight we only have noodles and no cooking."

Li Yuanlang noticed that there were indeed two bowls of noodles and a plate of pickles on the kitchen table.

"County Magistrate Tianfu, you can eat whatever you have." Li Yuanlang said, "Tell my sister-in-law to stop being busy and let us talk about things."

"That can't be done. It's rare that Secretary Li comes to our house as a guest, so we must not deal with you." As he spoke, Liu Tianfu let Li Yuanlang sit down on the sofa, took the Septwolves cigarettes he smoked, and entertained Li Yuanlang.

A box of White Septwolves cigarettes costs 8 yuan, and it’s even cheaper to buy them in sticks.

This is quite different from the Furong King that Li Yuanlang smoked.

"Mr. Tianfu, do you usually smoke this?"

Ordinarily, department-level officials like Li Yuanlang and Liu Tianfu receive a basic salary of about 4,000 yuan per month, plus seniority wages, car subsidies, communication subsidies, etc., the amount they receive is more than 5,000 yuan, but less than 6,000 yuan.

This money may not seem much to outsiders, but in a county like Wuma County, it is considered pretty good.

At least it's higher than many others.

Liu Tianfu and Li Yuanlang's income is similar, or even higher, mainly because he has worked longer than Li Yuanlang.

But the dignified county magistrate only smokes cigarettes that cost eight yuan a pack. Is this frugality or habit? Li Yuanlang can't understand.

Seeing Li Yuanlang in a daze, Liu Tianfu said awkwardly: "Secretary Li, the cigarette is a bit old, but it smokes very strongly. If you can't get used to it, I'll buy a pack of good ones."

Li Yuanlang waved his hands repeatedly, "No, Magistrate Tianfu, I can smoke anything."

He took the cigarette, waited for Liu Tianfu to light it for him, and asked Li Yuanlang: "Secretary Li, are you here?"

"It's not busy, let's talk while drinking." Li Yuanlang raised the bottle of Yunshui Daqu.

At this time, Liu Tianfu's wife had cooked the food and invited Li Yuanlang to sit down.

Two dishes, one fried peanuts and one scrambled eggs.

It's a bit simple, but fortunately they are all dishes that go with wine.

"You guys chat, I'm going in to watch TV." The woman walked into the bedroom with noodles in her hand very knowingly.

Liu Tianfu poured a glass of wine for Li Yuanlang and filled it himself.

Li Yuanlang and Liu Tianfu each picked up their wine glasses and took a sip.

While eating, Li Yuanlang said: "Mr. Tianfu County, what do you think of Molin Garden?"

As soon as Li Yuanlang said these words, Liu Tianfu's hand holding the food froze and he looked at Li Yuanlang with wide eyes.

"What’s wrong with you?"

"Oh." Liu Tianfu immediately recovered and concealed: "No, it's nothing."
