Looking at the two people, who looked serious for a while, and chatted with smiles for a while, while the others were indifferent, Ma Lianshan felt extremely uncomfortable.
The purpose of this person coming to the construction site is to seize the construction rights of the construction site.
When it comes to construction, he is his biggest enemy. With his father-in-law talking and laughing with him like this, is it possible that he can actually agree to him and give him half of the power of construction?
As long as he stayed at the construction site, the excavation of raw jade stones had to be done cautiously and secretly.
If this is the case, doesn't the father-in-law shoot himself in the foot?
Unknowingly, Ma Lianshan already thought that his father-in-law accepted this person's opinion.
The expressions on the faces of the government officials behind him also gradually became relaxed from the initial nervousness.
The two of them were talking and laughing, what else could happen? As long as nothing happens to the adults, I have no responsibility to shoulder.
Walking around the county town all day long, facing the picturesque scenery at the foot of the Qinling Mountains, I felt endless love and appreciation in my heart. Gradually, I stopped paying attention to the two people's behavior and began to look around.
"This is my first time coming to Magou Town. Whether it's the river below or the valley in front, it should be very pleasant to take a stroll in your spare time."
"I don't know whether it's comfortable or not. There should be a lot of small fish and crabs in the river below. Grab a basin and fry it in a pan, sprinkle some chili powder and salt, and get a jar of old shochu. Oops.
, it’s so beautiful just thinking about it.”
"You just know how to eat it. However, the small fish in the river are fried to perfection. Even the fish bones are crispy and can be chewed in big mouths."
"No. In a small stream like this, if you pull up the rocks on the bottom of the river, there will be a nest of river crabs. It won't be a problem to catch half a bucket of crabs in one go."
"This project will take several months at least, right? Next time, when the magistrate comes again, we will bring a wooden barrel."
"Why, do you really want to catch crabs? With a fire stick in one hand and a wooden bucket in the other, the magistrate will scold you to death."
"Then take a bag, secretly catch some river crabs and put them in your arms to satisfy your craving."
In the excitement of chatting, the government officials seemed to have forgotten that Yang Kang was still communicating with people not far away, pointing at the river and laughing.
Seeing the excited expressions of the government officials and listening to their words, Ma Lianshan felt even more dissatisfied.
But what’s the use of being dissatisfied?
He is Yang Kang's son-in-law, and Yang Kang will give him face, but after all, he is not a member of the government.
No matter how dissatisfied I was with the county government officials, I could only go back and complain to Yang Kang secretly. I had no right to accuse him in person.
But at this moment, my father-in-law is smiling. These government officials can relax and point at the river. What's wrong with them? What can I sue them for?
Under the shade of a tree in the distance, Duan Tianming smiled slightly and looked at the cunning Yang Kang: "Mr. Magistrate, what you mentioned is not a big problem. The person in charge of the construction site is still Shopkeeper Ma, but it is just the following menial tasks.
, leave it to the common people to take responsibility. From the outside, no one pays much attention to the replacement of some workers doing manual labor."
Yang Kang felt a little embarrassed.
Even though I have said this, you are still clinging to me like brown candy. You don’t seem to be a person who is ignorant of current affairs. Why don’t you understand what this county means?
This water conservancy project in Magou Town is true for benefiting the people and achieving political achievements for myself. It is also true that it can take care of my son-in-law Malianshan and let him make a fortune from it.
I tell you tactfully that the person in charge cannot be changed. Doesn’t that mean I’m rejecting you? You really can’t hear it?
"Isn't this good?" Yang Kang looked embarrassed, glanced at the livid Malianshan in the distance, and smiled at Duan Tianming, "Shopkeeper Ma has mobilized more than a dozen workers for this project, and there will be a large number of them later.
Prepare the manpower. If you only let him be the person in charge of the construction site, and leave all the following chores to you, the knight, wouldn't all his preparations be in vain? I can't give up every enthusiasm for the project."
Yang Kang has seen Duan Tianming's skills, and to be honest, he admires them very much. It can also be said that Duan Tianming is the most skilled person in the world that Yang Kang has ever seen in his life.
Although the government has never been afraid of people in the world, what official doesn't want to have a master who is loyal to him by his side? What's more, behind Duan Tianming, there is No. 100's subordinates.
This is an opportunity. Yang Kang doesn't want to turn away this rare "unparalleled master".
However, his attitude towards the people and his words to himself were not enough to make Yang Kang dispel his worries.
A master who is fearless of power and cares little about money cannot be retained by himself. Even if he is retained, the level of his loyalty is still an unknown that needs to be considered.
After repeated rejections, Yang Kang just wanted to test whether Duan Tianming really had the patience to communicate with him, and whether he really respected him from the bottom of his heart like he did when he met him just now.
If this matter had been left in the past, Duan Tianming would have lost his temper and might have slapped him in the face and forced Yang Kang to hand over the construction site to him.
However, since working with Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen's forbearance, endless twists and turns, and calmness that will never take action until the end have had a great impact on Duan Tianming's way of dealing with things.
After thinking about the whole matter, Duan Tianming came to the correct conclusion that Yang Kang was just testing himself.
In the past, he had already been strong, and it should have caused a lot of surprise to Yang Kang.
Next, you should show him weakness, let him relax his vigilance, and swing between accepting and rejecting himself.
Turning around, Duan Tianming's face became serious, he raised his fists and saluted Yang Kang again: "Your Excellency is dedicated to the people and is upright and honest. The common people have already heard about it. Otherwise, he would not have run away from Xi'an Mansion.
Come to this remote construction site in Magou Town. To be honest, for the construction site here, the ordinary people want to do their part for the people, and also want to quickly help the adults achieve political achievements. But the biggest selfishness is to let their brothers have
A full meal."
"Oh?!" Seeing Duan Tianming's serious look, Yang Kang also suppressed the smile on his face and said with surprise, "The chivalrous man is very skilled, and the people under his command must not be too weak. Not to mention rich and powerful, well fed.
It shouldn’t be difficult to have enough food and drink, so why can’t you even have a full meal?”
"To be honest with you, the world is just like the officialdom. There is a mixture of good and bad, and there are people of all kinds. The ordinary people disdain to become servants and guardians of those wealthy families. They cannot do such things as robbing families and homes. Just like you, you must be honest throughout your life.
However, he was ostracized everywhere and had no hope of promotion. In the world, ordinary people were also ostracized because they did not conform to the mainstream. Knowing that the adults were dedicated to serving the people, ordinary people rushed over from Xi'an Prefecture. They wanted to help the adults achieve political achievements and also wanted to pass the exam.
My own labor can alleviate the current life difficulties of my brothers." Duan Tianming said with a sincere face.
"You said you came all the way from Xi'an because of me?" Yang Kang couldn't believe his ears.
Are you here because of your reputation? How does my integrity, Yang Kang, have such a great influence?
"Yes." Duan Tianming nodded, "If it weren't for your integrity and selflessness, I would not tell you the current dilemma I am facing."
"Shh." Yang Kang let out a long breath, lowered his head and thought for a while, then slowly raised his head and looked at the deep valley mouth of the Qinling Mountains. He looked very embarrassed and wanted to do his best, as if he was trying hard to make up his mind.
Making decisions.
Although it looked like this on the surface, Yang Kang was smiling in his heart.
This is because God is attached to me, seeing that I have devoted myself to the people for more than ten years, and specially sent me a "peerless master".
The problem of eating for people No. 100 can be solved by just applying for any project.
After solving his urgent need, why don't you let him owe you a favor? If you want to conquer such a person, you will never be able to do it by force, you have to rely on sincerity.
However, even if they apply for the project, it will take time. During this period, it is not too late to let them stabilize on the construction site here and change places in the future.
"Well, I'll go back and discuss it with Shopkeeper Ma again. Although this is a county government construction site, as the on-site person in charge of the construction site, I have to listen to his opinions before I can give you a reply. In the past few days, you can
Let’s live here first. The construction site kitchen will provide you with free food.” Yang Kang said.
"The common people are waiting for the good news from your Excellency." Duan Tianming looked delighted.
"Yes." Yang Kang nodded, turned around, and walked towards Malian Mountain not far away.
