Rebirth 96: Peak of Power

Qindong Town Soil Management Office!

It was almost time to get off work at this time, but Zhang Daming, the director of the Soil Management Office, had a sad look on his face!

Actually!

Rumors in the town that he was about to step down were already rampant.

Chen Gang wanted to use his position to fill the responsibility for the accident at Qin Dong Elementary School, but Zhang Daming was a little unconvinced!

The renovation of Qin Dong Primary School has nothing to do with him at all.

At that time, the town had to spend money on developing fruit cultivation, and put all other things in the back burner.

Therefore, he also asked the then mayor Liu Bin, but he couldn't approve what Mayor Liu wanted even if he reported it, and it also caused difficulties for Secretary Chen.

Simply!

Zhang Daming left that process alone for the time being.

But what he didn't expect was that with just such a small mistake, the position he had worked for seventeen or eight years to reach was completely gone!

"Director Zhang, hello."

Just when Zhang Daming was having some thoughts, Zhou Pengcheng had already walked in, and he took the initiative to reach out and shake hands with Zhang Daming.

Zhang Daming subconsciously stood up and stretched out his hand.

Normally, if people want to look for me, someone will stop them at the door.

But now!

No one in the entire soil management office knows that he is the director, and he is basically dead.

Some people have even distanced themselves from themselves.

For example, today, Zhou Pengcheng and Xu Tao entered his office without any hindrance, which is enough to explain a lot of problems.

Zhang Daming looked at the two people who had suddenly appeared and was convinced that he didn't know the two people in front of him at all. He asked with some confusion: "You two look a little stranger, I don't know..."

"My name is Zhou Pengcheng, and this is Comrade Xu Tao." Zhou Pengcheng smiled and Xu Tao on the side also stretched out his hand to shake Zhang Daming's hand.

"Zhou Pengcheng?" Zhang Daming seemed to feel a little familiar. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and he immediately squeezed out a smile and said excitedly: "Mayor Zhou and Deputy Mayor Xu, didn't we have a meeting for you two this morning? Why do you have time to come here?"

"The meeting has ended. I happened to drop by here and came over to take a look..."

Zhou Pengcheng said casually, but Zhang Daming felt that it was impossible for the new mayor to pass by accidentally.

"Mayor Zhou's enthusiasm for work is admirable." Zhang Daming gave a thumbs up.

"Let's not say any polite words." Zhou Pengcheng waved his hand.

Zhang Daming smiled bitterly and said: "Mayor Zhou, it's not that I don't want to answer you, it's just that after today I may not work here anymore..."

"Being a monk means you have to ring the clock all day, not to mention some things haven't been decided yet." Zhou Pengcheng said softly.

"What Mayor Zhou said is, I wonder what Mayor Zhou wants to know?"

Zhou Pengcheng asked: "In addition to construction land, what is the current situation of agricultural land?"

"Currently, the town's agricultural land accounts for [-]%, and non-agricultural land is relatively small. Agricultural land is mainly used for rice planting, fruit planting, and some forestry land. I don't know if Mayor Zhou needs to hear specific figures. ..." Zhang Daming looked at Zhou Pengcheng and asked.

"Oh?? Can Suo Zhang tell you the specific figures?" Zhou Pengcheng was a little surprised.

"I have been working in finance before, so I am more sensitive to numbers. Basically all the land in the town is in my place."

Zhang Daming was not modest either, he pointed directly at his head and said.

"What is the current proportion of fruit planting?" What Zhou Pengcheng wants to know most is how deep has Qindong Town fallen on this road to get rid of poverty and become rich?

"Currently, fruit cultivation occupies more than 40.00% of the entire agricultural land, and the proportion has increased more than ten times compared to the same period last year!" Zhang Daming said immediately: "As for the specific fruit production and sales, I am currently..."

"I will investigate the specific situation when I have time. The main thing I heard today is just a rough outline." Zhou Pengcheng said softly.

"Mayor Zhou, it's dinner time, how about we talk while eating?" Zhang Daming asked tentatively.

"We won't eat here. I heard that it was Deputy Secretary Zhu who nominated you to be the director of the soil management office, right?" Zhou Pengcheng slowly switched to the topic.

Speaking of which, he knew almost nothing about Zhang Daming.

However, Xu Tao did inquire some, and these are almost everyone in Qindong Town’s knowledge.

Zhou Pengcheng's visit this time was not really for research work.

He just wanted to see what Zhang Daming was like?

After a very brief exchange, he now feels that this person should be regarded as a person with good business ability.

As for other aspects of character, he couldn't see this in a short period of time.

"Yes, Mayor Zhou, Deputy Secretary Zhu and I all graduated from Jiangzhou Accounting School. Everyone in our town knows about this..."

Zhang Daming didn't hide much. The whole Qindong Town knew about this matter. He was Secretary Zhu's person.

It's a pity that Secretary Zhu can't protect himself this time.

"Well, Secretary Zhu is indeed good at understanding people and making good use of them. Zhang Suo's business ability is still acceptable." Zhou Pengcheng said with certainty.

"Mayor Zhou, you have praised me. But in our township, ability is not the first priority."

Zhang Daming was a little depressed. He was basically a backer, which was why he was not convinced.

In terms of professional ability, he feels that he is a good person and he works conscientiously and responsibly.

But no matter what, he never expected that he would become the scapegoat in the end.

Jingle Bell!

Just when Zhang Daming was about to pour out his frustrations, the phone in his office rang.

"Mayor Zhou, please wait a moment..." Zhang Daming said apologetically, and then hurried over and picked up the phone.

"Hello..." Zhang Daming picked up the phone and just said hello, and then his whole expression changed a little. He asked the other party with a look of horror: "What did you say?? Okay, okay, I'll be here right away!"

"Zhang, just take care of everything first. Let's talk some other time." Zhou Pengcheng could tell that Zhang Daming must be in a hurry.

Zhang Daming said hello quickly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry Mayor Zhou, my mother fell down, I...I..."

"Need help?" Zhou Pengcheng asked.

"Thank you Mayor Zhou for your concern. No need, no need. Mayor Zhou, you are busy. I will report to Mayor Zhou when I have time."

Zhou Pengcheng nodded, got up and left directly. It was obvious that Zhang Daming was very anxious.

And the other side!

Zhang Daming watched Zhou Pengcheng leave. He had no intention of thinking about anything else and rode his bicycle directly towards Qindong Hospital...
