Chapter 897: The Golden Decade

wanting to go to a bar with him was because he truly saw him as one of his own. 。Xiao Zheng said: "There's a mission today, not just drinking." 。Let me give you the rundown. 。Xiao Zheng just received...According to the deputy bureau chief's report, Professor Yunqi is in Zhang Hengzhen, Yězhitang Village, Mining Area of Qianshui County, Mengshan. They are searching for rare mineral deposits. 。The deputy director originally wanted to invite Professor Yunqi to come out from Mount Meng and take a break. 。Professor Ke Yunqi refused, saying that they had only just come down from the mountains to a small town two days ago to rest and resupply, and would not be going back up for the next half month. 。As everyone knows, Professor Yunqi's personality is that he doesn't change his schedule easily for others. In this case, only Xiao Zheng and the others can go into the mountains to look for him. 。Yu Dongnan finished the phone call and immediately reported the news to the provincial secretary Xiang Xiao. Xiang Xiao heard this: "That's great! It was found so quickly! Here's what I think, tomorrow Comrade Yu Dongnan will accompany Minister Xiao to the mining area all the way until Minister Xiao meets Professor Yunqi." 。"Yes, to the secretary!" Yu Dongnan readily accepted this task from Secretary Xiang Xiaowen of the province. After all, he had already promised Gu Cuiping to treat Xiao Zheng well. 。Xiao Zheng didn't want to trouble Yu Dongnan, the director who was much higher in rank than him: "To the secretary, there's no need for Director Yu to accompany me personally. It's enough to have a few comrades from the geological team guide us." 。"Xiao, don't be so polite! Comrade Yudongnan, as the head of the geological department, should also visit the mining areas frequently and learn more about the grassroots situation." 。"Yu Dongnan also said, "Director Xiang, you are absolutely right." 。Although I also frequently go to the mining areas, compared to the leader's requirements, I still haven't done enough. Taking this opportunity, I can just take a look at Mengshan Mining Area again. 。Since the secretary insisted so much, if Yu Dongnan wasn't allowed to accompany him, it would probably be impossible! Xiao Zheng also stopped insisting and said: "Then I'll have to trouble you." 。"Since no one else was drinking, just tea, the banquet was almost over. The provincial secretary turned to Xie Xiangli, the head of propaganda department, and said: "Minister Xie, you should keep in touch with Minister Xiao. When Minister Xiao finds Professor Yunqi and returns to Yangnan City, you should also invite Minister Xiao for a meal. If I don't have anything special going on, I'll join you as well." 。Xie Xiangli smiled and said, "I couldn't ask for more, I will definitely implement it!" It is unknown what Xie Xiangli meant by "couldn't ask for more," whether she hoped to invite Xiao Zheng to dinner or hoped that the secretary could also participate Or both!

After dinner, everyone sent Secretary Xiang and Minister Xie to the hotel lobby. Secretary Xiang shook hands with Xiao Zheng again and said, "This hotel is relatively quiet, have a good rest, you'll have to run around in the mountains tomorrow!" Xiao Zheng replied, "Thank you, Secretary Xiang, for your concern, I will definitely sleep soundly." 。Then Xiao Zheng shook hands with Xie Xiangli again, and the two leaders each got into their own cars and left. 。Other accompanying leaders also left one after another. 。

Provincial Geology Bureau Director Yu Dongnan didn't leave, instead he wanted to accompany Xiao Zheng back to his room. He was really thoughtful, Xiao Zheng said: "Director Yu, I've already bothered you for a long time, you should go back too, your family is waiting for you as well." 。"Yu Dongnan chuckled and said, "Minister Xiao, don't laugh at me. I'm not young anymore, but I'm still single!" Xiao Zheng was taken aback. He really didn't expect that Director Yu was still single! This was completely abnormal!

Given Yu Dongnan's position as the director of the provincial geological bureau, how many beautiful and young women would be willing to throw themselves into his arms Yet, he was surprisingly single." 。Xiao Zheng suddenly remembered that Gu Cuiping had specifically told Xiao Zheng not to tell Yu Dongnan about her divorce and single status. 。Could it be that there was a story between Gu Cuiping and Yu Dongnan Xiao Zheng said, “I really didn’t expect it. Director Yu is still single until now. According to Director Yu’s conditions, he has so many options to choose from. Could it be that he’s being too picky Just kidding” 。"Yu Dongnan shook his head. "No way! Minister Xiao, this is our first meeting, and you don't know me very well yet. You'll get to know me better over time." 。。"Yu Dongnan suddenly asked again, "Minister Xiao, is Comrade Gu Cuiping's married life still happy" "This..." Xiao Zheng glanced at Yu Dongnan, "Actually, I don't know much about Secretary Gu's private life. I haven't paid much attention to it." 。"Yu Dongnan nodded slightly, with a touch of disappointment, and said: "Okay, Minister Xiao, you should get some rest." 。I will pick you up tomorrow morning. 。"Xiao Zheng said: "Good, thank you Director Yu, I'll trouble you these two days." 。Yu Dongnan said "you're welcome" and left with his companions. His departing figure gave people a sense of melancholy. 。Xiao Zheng's heart had a slight pang of guilt, and he even thought to himself, "If I told him that Gu Cuiping was already divorced and single, would Director Yu still be so downcast" But then again, Xiao Zheng thought, "If he really wanted to know about the other party's situation, he would have asked someone to inquire about it a long time ago. Perhaps Director Yu subconsciously didn't dare to touch upon it"Of course, Xiao Zheng's attention wasn't always focused on Gu Cuiping and Yu Dongnan. After returning to his room, he called Xiao Jingyu and told her about the dinner situation. When Xiao Jingyu heard him talk about "the golden decade" and "four articles, one hub, one barrier" suggestions, she couldn't help but admire him. She praised him and said, "Xiao Zheng, in less than a year since you came to Ninggan, both your theoretical knowledge and leadership abilities have made tremendous progress." 。Now you can consider the big picture. 。"Hearing Xiao Jingyu's praise, Xiao Zheng felt a little shy inside: "Jingyu, your praise makes me feel like I'm going to float away." 。“Xiao Jingyu said: ‘I believe, after floating for a while, you will be down-to-earth again, because you are the kind of person who takes action and opens up new frontiers.’” 。"Such praise from his wife warmed Xiao Zheng's heart." 。Xiao Zheng then asked Xiao Jingyu how he was feeling physically at the moment. Xiao Jingyu said everything was normal and asked him to rest assured in his work in Yun Gui. 。Xiao Zheng also told Xiao Jingyu that he would be entering Mount Meng tomorrow. The signal there wasn't very good, so it might not be possible to contact him by phone. 。Xiao Jingyu said: "You should take the Xiao family's guards with you, they should have relatively advanced communication tools." 。If your phone can't receive a signal, you can borrow theirs. 。In this regard, Xiao Zheng hadn't considered it. He said, "Jingyu, you've thought this through too much." 。"Xiao Jingyu said, "You should get some rest early. You might not adapt well to the mountains tomorrow, so it's important to keep your energy up!" Xiao Zheng said, "Okay, good night. Get some rest too, you and the baby." 。Xiao Jingyu's heart was filled with joy. Xiao Zheng had called her baby in her belly "baby" for the first time. Xiao Zheng also realized that what he just said, "baby," came out naturally and without any pretense. 。Being a parent, sometimes it's just that natural to fall into the role. 。Xiao Jingyu said: "Goodnight" 。"Xiao Zheng also said "Good night"." 。After hanging up the phone, I walked to the window. The bright moon hung high in the sky, and a cool breeze flowed in. The palm trees and lawns below were bathed in moonlight! I was still at Xihai head this morning, and now I'm here in the westernmost reaches of my homeland. It feels unreal. 。Before, my activities were limited to several villages in Tianguan Town. That was the case for seven or eight years; later, my scope expanded to the county town, Jingzhou, and Hangzhou. After being dispatched to Ning, it further extended to Jiangzhong and Ninggan. Now, I'm in YunGui... It's really true that as one's abilities improve and their position rises, the range of their activities also increases. 。During this process, Xiao Zheng had a feeling that the farther away he was from home, the tighter the thread of concern would become; Xiao Zheng also had another feeling that the larger the range of human activity, the more the world he saw, the wider his horizons, and in the contact, communication, and ideological collision with different people, people would therefore become smarter. 。To travel the world is to gain firsthand knowledge, which cannot be taught in books. That's why ancient people emphasized that "reading ten thousand volumes of books" must be accompanied by "traveling ten thousand miles". It is indeed very wise!it might have affected some people's interests. 。So, some people started to report on themselves to the mayorXiao Zheng said to his secretary Ren Yongle: "Okay, I understand." 。"It's getting late tod...
