Miao Peilong and Fang Xiaoya both laughed, and Qiao Liang was a little embarrassed: "How dare you? I just ask casually."

Lu Qian smiled and said, "My friend eats public food. As for gender, I won't tell you."

Everyone laughed again, Qiao Liang stopped asking. Thinking of the conversation between him and Lu Qian in the morning, he felt that his questions were a bit unnecessary. Lu Qian said that he had not found the Ruyi Langjun yet, so this friend should be her best friend.

Lu Qian asked Fang Xiaoya again at this time: "Secretary Miao and I have a residence, how do you and Mr. Qiao live?"

"You don't have to worry about this, I'll arrange to stay in a hotel." Fang Xiaoya said.

"Are you staying in a room tonight or..." Lu Qian asked in a teasing tone.

"Go to you, what are you talking nonsense?" Fang Xiaoya spat at Lu Qian. Lu Qian smiled and looked back at Qiao Liang again, with an elusive look in her eyes.

Qiao Liang laughed, but there was a subtle feeling in his heart.

When the car was about to arrive at the provincial party committee’s family compound, Lu Qian looked ahead and suddenly shouted: “Stop—”

Fang Xiaoya stopped the car and looked at Lu Qian: "Do you want to get off?"

Lu Qian nodded, then pointed to the small square in front of the right: "Hey, do you see that person over there?"

Everyone looked in the direction of Lu Qian's fingers and an old man was playing Tai Chi in an empty small square.

"Oh, isn't that Secretary Liao of the Provincial Party Committee?" Fang Xiaoya shouted.

"Yes, I didn't expect that the old man was still exercising outside in the middle of winter." Lu Qian opened the car door, "I'll say hello to the old man, do you want to come together?"

Miao Peilong got off the car without saying a word. It is a rare opportunity to meet Secretary Liao here, so you must go there.

Fang Xiaoya and Qiao Liang also got out of the car and followed him.

"Hey, the leader, it's such a cold day, you are not afraid of the cold." Lu Qian jumped to Liao Gufeng, his voice very lively.

Liao Gufeng stopped and looked at them.

Miao Peilong asked Qiao Liang as he walked: "Director Lu and Secretary Liao know each other?"

"I know, we all know him, and we met him during the on-site meeting in Sanjiang." Qiao Liang replied.

Miao Peilong nodded, a little excited and nervous. It seemed that it was his first time meeting with Liao Gufeng.

Walking to Liao Gufeng, Qiao Liang, Fang Xiaoya and Miao Peilong greeted Liao Gufeng respectfully. Liao Gufeng looked at them with a smile: "Why are you guys together and running Huang Yuan?"

"Hehe, we have nothing to do on the weekend," Lu Qian said quickly, "Chief, you know Qiao Liang and Fang Xiaoya, I won't introduce you. This is Secretary Miao from Songbei County."

As he said that, Lu Qian pointed at Miao Peilong.

"Oh, Secretary of the Songbei County Party Committee..." Liao Gufeng's eyelids twitched, and he looked at Miao Peilong up and down.

Miao Peilong was very nervous and looked at Liao Gufeng with restraint, saying respectfully: "Hello Secretary Liao, my name is Miao Peilong. I just took office as Secretary of the Songbei County Party Committee. You can call me Xiao Miao."

Liao Gufeng continued to look at Miao Peilong, then stretched out his hand, and Miao Peilong hurriedly stretched out his hands to hold it.

"So you are Miao Peilong..." Liao Gufeng smiled generously, "Some time ago, I heard the comrades from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee talk to me about the replacement of the Songbei County Party Committee Secretary. It turned out that you were the ones who changed it."

"Yes, yes." Miao Peilong nodded quickly.

Liao Gufeng let go of his hand and looked at Miao Peilong: "Xiao Miao, can I ask you a few questions?"

"Secretary Liao, please give me instructions." Miao Peilong became even more nervous, not knowing what Secretary Liao was going to ask.

"Oh, just chat, don't be so nervous." Liao Gufeng waved his hand, "If you don't have any instructions, just talk about chatting."

"Oh, okay, okay." Miao Peilong nodded with a smile. Although Liao Gufeng said he was chatting, he was still nervous. He had to be very careful when chatting with the provincial party secretary and could not make a mistake in a word.

"I ask you, how many people are there in Songbei County? How many villages are there? What proportion of mountainous areas account for the county? How many acres of arable land is there? How many fruit forests are there? How much total tourism income in the county last year, and what about the per capita income of farmers..." Liao Gufeng raised a series of questions.

Lu Qian, Fang Xiaoya and Qiao Liang all looked at Miao Peilong. Qiao Liang was a little worried about Miao Peilong. The director of the county statistics bureau might not be able to explain these data without checking the information. I wonder if Miao Peilong could satisfy Liao Gufeng with an answer.

Miao Peilong's mind was circling rapidly, and suddenly he was no longer nervous. He felt very at ease. This was all his work, and all these data were in his mind.

"Reported to Secretary Liao, there are 572,000 people in Songbei County, 963 natural villages, 416 administrative villages, mountainous areas account for 84% of the county, 455,000 mu of arable land, and 860,000 mu of forest land..." Miao Peilong answered smoothly.

Fang Xiaoya and Lu Qian smiled with pursed their lips, Qiao Liang breathed a sigh of relief, secretly admiring Miao Peilong's familiarity with the county's feelings.

"How many of these villages have you been to?" Liao Gufeng asked again.

"Report to Secretary Liao, during my tenure as the mayor of Songbei County, I have been to 367 administrative villages in the county, and I plan to complete the rest before the New Year." Miao Peilong replied.

Liao Gufeng nodded and continued to ask Miao Peilong some questions about agriculture, rural areas and agriculture, and Miao Peilong answered them smoothly.

Listening to Miao Peilong's answer, Liao Gufeng's expression became more and more satisfied, and finally he laughed.

Seeing Liao Gufeng laughing, Miao Peilong breathed a sigh of relief, and Qiao Liang also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Peilong, it seems that you, the county magistrate, are worthy of your name." Liao Gufeng said with a smile.

Just now, Liao Gufeng called Miao Peilong Xiao Miao, and he changed his name to Peilong. What does this change mean by this title? It goes without saying.

Miao Peilong was secretly happy and hurriedly said, "Secretary Xie Liao praised him."

Qiao Liang was also happy for Miao Peilong and couldn't help laughing.

Liao Gufeng turned to look at Qiao Liang: "Hey, Xiao Qiao, are you satisfied with my evaluation of Secretary Peilong?"

Qiao Liang was stunned. He was the secretary of the provincial party committee. Why did he ask himself if he was satisfied? Obviously he was making fun of himself again.

But since he asked this, he still had to answer.

Qiao Liang grinned and nodded quickly: "Satisfied, I'm very satisfied."

"Well, okay, I feel relieved if Comrade Xiao Qiao is satisfied." Liao Gufeng said seriously.

Qiao Liang grinned again, Miao Peilong and Fang Xiaoya both laughed, and Lu Qian was so happy that she couldn't stop talking about it.

Then Lu Qian said, "Chief, it's too cold outside, you can't stay for too long, go home quickly."

"Okay, listen to Comrade Xiao Lu, go home." Liao Gufeng nodded with a smile.

Then Qiao Liang, Fang Xiaoya and Miao Peilong said goodbye and got into the car, and Fang Xiaoya started the car.

As the car started, Miao Peilong let out a heavy sigh and said, "How come Director Lu calls Secretary Liao?"

"She came from the Central Bureau of Direct and saw too many high-ranking officials. She is used to being called the chief. In addition, she is lively and likes to joke." Qiao Liang said casually, then looked back and saw Lu Qian holding Liao Gufeng's arm and jumping towards the provincial party committee's family courtyard.
