400: Chapter 400 Secretary Yang’s Enthusiasm 400: Chapter 400 Secretary Yang’s Enthusiasm County Magistrate?!
Deng Xianfeng was completely stupefied there, for even Mayor Wu was a big shot in his eyes, an adult he had always looked up to.
The County Magistrate was an even more unattainable mountain.
“Hello Secretary Yang, welcome to our Wanshan Village, I am the village chief Deng Xianfeng.” After his initial shock, Deng Xianfeng quickly recovered, bowing and scraping with a fawning face.
Yang Tieshi gave Deng Xianfeng a glance and didn’t pay much attention.
“Hello Secretary Yang!” Deng’s aunt and uncle were somewhat excited and at a loss for words, only managing to ask with a smile if he was well.
“Hmm, hello to you too,” Yang Tieshi replied with a smile to the elders, which surprised them.
Deng Xianfeng’s face twitched, as he, the village chief, hadn’t received even a glance from Secretary Yang, whereas the elder Deng couple got a friendly smile.
Such treatment made him very envious indeed.
His mind was even more puzzled, as things surely weren’t as he had thought.
What business could such a big shot like Secretary Yang have at the Deng’s place?
“Where are Young Master Tang and the others?” asked Yang Tieshi in a friendly tone.
The Aunt and Uncle Deng did not initially realize who was being referred to.
Deng Jianguo, seeing this, added, “Secretary Yang is asking about Young Brother Tang and the others, where are they?”
“They’re upstairs, I’ll go call them down,” said Deng Li immediately, then ran upstairs.
Deng Xianfeng’s mouth twitched again.
Listening to Secretary Yang’s tone, he seemed quite respectful of the young man.
A simple mention of “Young Master Yang” was enough to prove the young man’s status.
Thinking of this, Deng Xianfeng’s face turned ashen, as he recalled his earlier presumptuous scolding.
He had an urge to slap himself hard.
He had thought those several people were just children from ordinary families, not realizing they had significant backgrounds.
No, rather, exceptionally significant, if even Secretary Yang was so respectful and polite to them.
Deng Xianfeng regretted so deeply he felt his insides churning.
Why hadn’t he arrived a bit later?
Then he wouldn’t have offended those young people.
If those youngsters complained about the earlier incident in front of Secretary Yang, Deng Xianfeng couldn’t even dare to think about the consequences.
Leaving everything else aside, Mayor Wu would certainly not look at him favorably in the future and might even cause him trouble.
The more he thought about it, the less he dared to continue.
Even an old horse can stumble, and that’s exactly how he felt at this moment.
Upstairs, Tangyu and the others had already heard the commotion below.
Seeing Deng Li climbing up, Tangyu asked, “What’s happening?”
“Hehe, good news, Brother Yu!
Our Yang County’s Secretary Yang has come to find you,” Deng Li said.
Tangyu’s brow slightly raised.
He wasn’t familiar with Yang County’s County Magistrate at all.
He turned to look at Zhao Yaya, was this person invited by her?
“What do they want with us?
I don’t know them; I refuse to meet,” said Zhao Yaya, who hadn’t been sleeping but was lying in bed fiddling with her camera, having taken quite a few photos that morning.
Tangyu and the others didn’t go downstairs, but Yang Tieshi and his group came up.
Yang Tieshi went straight to Tangyu and said with a pleasant smile, “This must be Tangyu, Young Master Tang, right?”
“Yes, I am.
You’re looking for me, what’s the matter?” Tangyu replied with a nod.
Yang Tieshi shook his head with a smile, “No problem at all.
I’d heard that Young Master Tang and several missies honored our Yang County with a visit, so I just came to see how you were doing, absolutely no other intentions.
Hehe, I hope you’re having a good time?”
“It’s been all right,” Tangyu responded casually.
Yang Tieshi turned to Mayor Wu, “You all go downstairs first, I’d like to have a chat alone with Young Master Tang.”
Mayor Wu and the rest dared not disobey and quickly withdrew.
Deng Xianfeng, Deng Li, and a few others also went downstairs, leaving Yang Tieshi alone with them.
Guo Momo and the other two also walked over.
Yang Tieshi quickly glanced over Guo Momo and the five of them, surprise evident in his heart, and his look towards Tangyu carried a few shades of admiration.
Five such beautiful girls, each one stunning enough to cause the downfall of cities and states.
One man, surrounded by five such exquisite beauties, and each type—there was the loli, the mature lady, the fresh and pure young girl, the family daughter with a pure and fresh style, and the cold and noble rich girl.
It was simply—
Yang Tieshi had also heard about some rich young masters who liked playing such roleplay, which made him even more certain that the provincial governor’s phone call was surely because of Young Master Tang.
Thinking this, Yang Tieshi’s attitude towards Tangyu became even more respectful.
Tangyu was a bit puzzled.
Why was this Secretary Yang so polite to him?
If Tangyu knew what Yang Tieshi was thinking, he wouldn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Young Master Tang, I sincerely apologize for the incident in Miyun Town and severely blame myself for not managing Miyun Town properly.
I only received the news last night, and without even waiting for daylight, I rushed over to Miyun Town first thing in the morning.
I have also dismissed the Secretary and Chief of Miyun Town; such ineffective officials are decisively not to be retained.
Additionally, those hooligans have all been arrested.
The public safety issues in Miyun Town will be strictly enforced in the future to ensure that there won’t be any more troublemakers and to provide a secure environment for our visitors,” said Yang Tieshi.
Tangyu’s eyes narrowed slightly.
The power of one phone call from Zhao Yaya was indeed substantial, and Secretary Yang’s efficiency had proven satisfactory.
However, Tangyu couldn’t be bothered with these matters, as he wasn’t going to stay in Miyun Town.
Whatever happened here was none of his concern, but since “Princess” Zhao Yaya was displeased, he let her play her game.
It just seemed that he had inadvertently stolen her thunder.
Seeing Tangyu not speaking, Yang Tieshi was all the more cautious, with a hint of unease.
If he couldn’t soothe the mood of this great Bodhisattva, then his chances of promotion might be jeopardized.
“Young Master Tang, please let me know if you have any needs.
Whatever you require, just say the word, and I’ll make sure you have a pleasant stay,” Yang Tieshi said.
“We are fine, we’ve been enjoying our stay here,” said Tangyu.
Yang Tieshi nodded and made a mental note about Wanshan Village.
“Uh—Tangyu, about that matter, I hope you can put in a good word for me.” Yang Tieshi, not getting any response from Tangyu, felt uneasy and had no choice but to bite the bullet and take the initiative to say.
Tangyu, of course, didn’t know what Yang Tieshi was referring to and simply nodded nonchalantly.
Seeing Tangyu nod, a stone finally dropped from Yang Tieshi’s heart, and his furrowed brow on his forehead relaxed, “Hehe, then thank you very much, Tangyu.
If you want to go anywhere fun, just mention it to Mayor Wu and he’ll arrange everything for you.
I’ve already asked Mayor Wu to prepare a small villa in Miyun Town for you and your group to stay.
If there’s anything, just tell Mayor Wu and he’ll handle it.”
“Hmm, I got it,” Tangyu said, somewhat impatiently.
“Alright, alright, then I won’t disturb Tangyu and your group’s rest any longer, I’ll take my leave first,” Yang Tieshi didn’t dare to linger.
After sending Yang Tieshi off, Tangyu finally curled his lip in relief, now that he had some peace and quiet.
Interacting with these political figures still made Tangyu feel rather uncomfortable.
Zhao Yaya grinned and said, “How does it feel to play the role of a young master for once, big brother?
Having a County Party Secretary treat you with such reverence, putting you on a pedestal as a young master, that must feel pretty good, right?”
“It’s so-so, I’m not really into this,” Tangyu replied.
“Tsk—don’t act coy after getting a bargain; all those bad guys got locked up, they got what they deserved,” Zhao Yaya said.
The Dengs knew that Tangyu and the others were from the city and probably quite wealthy, but they didn’t expect them to have such powerful connections.
Standing in front of the car, Yang Tieshi looked around and then said with a sense of gravity, “Wanshan Village is indeed a nice place, with beautiful scenery.
It deserves special attention.”
“That’s right, County Magistrate Yang, I already have plans to introduce some investment and development into Wanshan Village.
I’ll get on it right away and see it implemented,” said Mayor Wu, immediately agreeing.
“Hmm, then you get on that,” Yang Tieshi nodded and, having said that, got into the car.
Deng Xianfeng again felt as if he had been struck by a bolt of joyous lightning.
The County Magistrate’s words undoubtedly brought great business opportunities and wealth to Wanshan Village, and it might just become one of the wealthiest villages in Miyun Town.
Mayor Wu glanced at Deng Xianfeng and said, “When you’re free, come by for a visit.”
Deng Xianfeng immediately laughed broadly, “Sure thing, I’ll come visit you tomorrow.”
Mayor Wu gestured to Deng Jianguo and asked, “Are you coming back to Miyun Town with me?”
“Hmm, yes,” Deng Jianguo nodded.
“Then let’s go, get in the car.” Mayor Wu patted Deng Jianguo on the shoulder and the two of them left, looking like good buddies, which made Deng Xianfeng green with envy.
The Dengs were really climbing the social ladder now, and he would have to be more polite to them from now on.
Once in the car, Mayor Wu was exceedingly friendly and directly slung an arm around Deng Jianguo’s shoulder, saying, “Brother Jianguo, don’t be so ceremonious with me.
Just treat me like one of your buddies, call me Brother Wu.
Otherwise, I won’t be happy!”
Deng Jianguo laughed and then nodded, saying, “Alright, Brother Wu, I’ll be counting on your help from now on.”
“What are you talking about, Brother Jianguo?
There’s no need for such talk.
We’re buddies, if there’s any way I can help you, I will of course think of you.
I heard you’ve always been doing some small business; you have some experience with business.
Actually, I have a good opportunity for you, Brother Jianguo, but I don’t know if you’re interested,” Mayor Wu said.
“Oh, tell me about it, Brother Wu,” Deng Jianguo was immediately interested, his heart pounding with excitement and anticipation, sensing that a big opportunity was coming his way.
“Well, I’ve been planning a big project recently.
As you know, Miyun Town is not just a major tourist town, but also a major producer of fruits.
Previously, fruit sales have been too loose, mostly handled by merchants from outside.
My idea is to establish a large fruit procurement factory.
We would sign contracts directly with the fruit farmers; our town would negotiate and secure all the fruit contracts, then we would ask the county to help open up sales channels to increase revenue for Miyun Town.
Are you interested in being part of this project?
I’m thinking about a shareholding system,” Mayor Wu explained.
“Ah!!!” Deng Jianguo was momentarily stunned, overwhelmed by the stroke of fortune, it was definitely a huge pie falling from the sky.
“What’s wrong, Brother Jianguo?
You don’t want to do it?” asked Mayor Wu.
Deng Jianguo quickly shook his head, “No, no, Brother Wu, of course I want to do it, just worried I might not be up to it.
Plus—I don’t really have any capital, I’m afraid I can’t buy into the shares.”
“Hehe, I thought it was something serious.
You don’t need to worry about that, the capital will come from investors; you just need to manage well.
How about this, you’ll take care of contracts with the fruit farmers and other matters, and you’ll have a twenty percent share.
You don’t have to invest a penny.
How does that sound?” Mayor Wu offered.
At this moment, the only thought in Deng Jianguo’s head was that pies really do fall from the sky!
