As soon as Diao Heze opened his mouth, Cao Weidong knew that he might be holding back some bad idea.
So I stood up.
First, I toasted Diao Heze with a glass of wine.
Stopped him in advance with words.
"You are a good friend of our County Magistrate. I believe you will not embarrass me, a junior."
Cao Weidong's light words broke Diao Heze's original plan.
He suddenly reacted.
Wan'an County is also employing people at this time.
If you set a trap yourself and poach Cao Weidong away.
Follow Lao Ji’s behavior.
I will definitely go to Fuxiang County to cause a scene.
It will be difficult for both of them to step down by then.
Therefore, he must not impose too harsh conditions to embarrass Cao Weidong.
At the very least, Lao Ji must be able to find no fault.
Diao Heze was not angry either.
On the contrary, I especially appreciate Cao Weidong's cleverness.
The more he looked at Cao Weidong, the more satisfied he became.
There is even some regret and loss in my heart.
Why don’t we have talents like Cao Weidong in our county?
He sighed silently in his heart, and then said.
"Actually, I don't mean anything else."
"If you want to make a betting agreement with us, I will do it next, but there must be an explanation on the time limit."
"After all, I can't wait indefinitely for your results, right?"
Cao Weidong nodded.
"You are right, what do you want to do?"
At this time Diao Heze put forward his own opinion.
"I mean, how about we make a date in March."
"As long as you can help our county find a pillar industry with development value within these three months and let me see the future development prospects, you will win this gambling agreement."
"I will give you the position of director of the petroleum refinery, and I will also give you the rights to exploit the oil wells for another three years."
"Of course, if you think you can't do it within three months, you can cancel the gambling agreement as soon as possible, or you can honestly move the biogas plant to our Fuxiang County."
Cao Weidong thought for a while and said.
"I think what you said is correct. I agree to this condition, but we have to sign a note."
Diao Heze happened to have the same meaning.
The two spent money and money, and finally reached an agreement.
Both parties couldn't wait and signed on the wine table.
The atmosphere in the box became harmonious again.
Several county cadres enthusiastically toasted Cao Weidong in turn.
They are all calculating a score in their minds.
Three months later.
There can only be two results.
First result.
Cao Weidong took over the oil refinery and took the oil well exploration rights for three years.
But the factory is in the county, the workers are in the county, and the oil wells are still in the county.
If Cao Weidong can really change the oil well, the county will ultimately benefit.
And the second result.
It was Cao Weidong who moved the biogas plant here or opened a branch plant.
Their county is still a beneficiary.
No matter what the outcome is, they must establish a good relationship with Cao Weidong in advance.
Therefore, he showed great enthusiasm.
Cao Weidong also refuses to come.
Finally, he just knocked down several cadres who were taking turns to toast, and then stopped.
In contrast, Xu Aiguo and several other junior officers were much less able to drink. They were defeated early and were sent back to the guest house sideways.
.......
Cao Weidong and others' first day in Fuxiang County passed like this.
It wasn't until three o'clock in the morning that Xu Aiguo and others woke up from their drunkenness.
After they briefly washed up one by one, they rubbed their heads and ran to report to Cao Weidong.
Cao Weidong asked them to sit down and looked around.
"Have you sobered up? How is your recovery?"
Xu Aiguo’s face was full of scorn.
"Sorry, director, we have embarrassed you."
He was filled with self-blame.
I felt that I failed to protect Cao Weidong at the wine table, but instead had someone carry him back.
Cao Weidong waved his hand.
"It's okay, I can drink well, I don't need you to protect me."
"If you are almost sober, then set out to expand your store this afternoon."
Xu Aiguo and others were shocked.
This is business.
They nodded one after another, indicating that they were fine.
Cao Weidong took them outside to have a good meal as a practice, and then watched Xu Aiguo and others board the bus to Linxian.
He rubbed his chin and looked at this county town, which although somewhat dilapidated, was surrounded by mountains and rivers and had pretty good scenery.
Decided to look around.
He actually already has ideas about what kind of pillar industries to help Fuxiang County develop.
But how to implement it specifically needs to be decided based on the situation in the county.
.......
"One to five!"
"To Liu, do you want it?"
"I want to leave if I have a pair of six, I have a pair of a's here!"
"Fat man, you hit six a's with your special aim, do you think we don't know how to count?"
Under a big tree.
Four or five young people are gathering together to play cards.
It’s so noisy.
The fat man who was suspected of cheating spread his hands.
He pointed at a pile of playing cards on the ground with completely inconsistent images on the back.
"It's not my fault. We all made up these cards. There might be six aces."
"You fart, I shuffled the cards just now, I checked them in advance."
My companion immediately retorted loudly.
Several people started making noises.
"Hey, brothers are playing cards here, can you take me with you?"
At this moment, a strange voice sounded from behind everyone.
When they looked back, they were stunned.
A young man of similar age to them, wearing a cadre uniform, was standing behind them, watching them play cards.
The fat man frowned and asked warily:
"Who are you? I look strange. Why haven't I seen you before?"
Fuxiang County is such a big place, and everyone is of the same age, so there is no way he has never seen it before.
The man smiled.
"My name is Cao Weidong..."
The person who spoke was none other than Cao Weidong.
He walked around Fuxiang County twice and got a general understanding of the situation in the county. He happened to see a few young people playing poker, so he came over to try to get some useful information.
Cao Weidong smiled and took out two boxes of brand new poker cards that he had just bought and had not yet been opened.
"I'm from Wan'an County next door. I came here to do some errands. I happened to be a little bored and wanted to find someone to play cards with."

"You take one with me, and I won't take away the playing cards either. I'll just leave them with you. How about that?"
The fat man’s eyes were straight.
Those are two new cards!
He said hurriedly.
"Comrade, I felt friendly when I saw you just now. Come sit here and let's play together."
Cao Weidong wisely came over and handed over the playing cards, then took out a pack of cigarettes and distributed them to everyone.
At this time, everyone's faces showed joy.
One of the young people said with emotion.
"I heard that your Wan'an County has developed recently. It seems that what everyone said is true. Unlike us, we are so poor that we can't even afford to smoke."
When Cao Weidong saw that the other party was handing out the words, he immediately caught it.
"Aren't you at work?"
"Where are the jobs?"
The fat man in the lead complained.
"No new factory has been opened in the county for several years. The jobs are all replacement jobs. We can't find jobs at all."
"I usually just go to the mountains to cut down a few trees and earn some hard-earned money."
Through conversation, Cao Weidong knew that these people were ordinary young people in the county.
Because the current environment is not good, he has become an unemployed young man. He occasionally goes to the mountains to cut trees and do part-time jobs.
But most of the time we can only hang out together like now, doing nothing.
Cao Weidong nodded, and just as he was about to speak, he heard someone next to him shaking the bell vigorously and shouting loudly at the same time.
"Oh no, there's a mountain fire, the forest is burning!"
Several people looked up at the same time.
On the green hills not far away, a thick black smoke shot straight into the sky, and orange flames could be vaguely flickered.
