Chapter 1943 Road Construction

"We have to avenge our previous defeat when we go to Dongrihe, so we must bring out our strongest team. I don't think I have the ability to carry the banner yet, otherwise I wouldn't give you such a good opportunity."

The expression on Zhao Qiu Ming's face was very complicated. He looked at Xie Zhenqi and Xie Zehua with surprise. His lips trembled with excitement, but he couldn't utter a word.

Xie Zhenqi's face darkened: "Why are you trembling? Are you scared?"

"No, absolutely not!"

Zhao Qiu Ming shook his head like a rattle, fearing that Xie Zhenqi would take back the order.

Xie Zhenqi smiled and said, "Qiu Ming, your personality is not calm enough. I am a little worried about you."

Zhao Qiuming said, "Don't worry, I will definitely change my temper before I go to Dongrihe. My cousin said that if you write a few hundred characters every day, your mind will become calmer and calmer. I will write a few thousand characters every day when I go back, and I will definitely satisfy the commander."

These words made Xie Zhenqi and Xie Zehua both laugh and cry.

Xie Zehua said: "Brigade Commander Zhao, you misunderstood the commander's meaning. He doesn't want you to become a Confucian general, but he hopes that you can complete a mission before going to Dongrihe."

"What mission?"

Zhao Qiuming was stunned for a moment, then he said, "No matter what the mission is, I will do my best to complete it and will never let the commander and the military district leaders down!"

Xie Zhenqi smiled and said, "It's not as serious as you said. I just hope that you can bring someone with you to Dongrihe."

"Who?" Zhao Qiu Ming asked.

Xie Zhenqi said: "Liu Fusheng."

Zhao Qiu Ming pretended to be confused: "Why? He doesn't know anything. What's the point of me taking him there?"

Xie Zhenqi said with a half-smile, "Are you playing tricks on us? Before the military exercise was over, you were already planning to get close to Liu Fusheng, and even took the initiative to call Brigade Commander Xie to discuss the matter. Now you're saying it's useless to bring him along?"

Zhao Qiu Ming scratched his head and smiled. He knew Xie Zehua's character and abilities too well. When he saw Xie Zehua's troops winning battle after battle, Zhao Qiu Ming's mind became active. He even secretly called Xie Zehua to eavesdrop on Liu Fusheng's battle deployment.

"Thank you, Commander. We agreed that my calling you must be kept secret!"

Xie Zehua said helplessly: "I'm sorry, I didn't leak the secret on purpose, but the commander and the military district leaders told me that they wanted to send you out, but they felt a little unsafe and wanted to ask Liu Fusheng for help. They were also worried that there would be some conflicts between you and Liu Fusheng, so I told this matter so that the commander and other leaders could feel at ease."

Xie Zhenqi said: "There is nothing wrong with your command ability. The only thing you lack is strategy and the ability to deal with various emergencies. If you have Secretary Liu's help, your shortcomings will be completely made up."

Zhao Qiuming thought for a moment and said honestly, "That's true. I'm still too honest. I'm not as cunning as Liu Fusheng. I sincerely hope that someone like Secretary Liu can help me... But Secretary Liu is a state cadre. He has a lot to worry about every day. It's an exception to let him participate in the military exercise in the East Guangdong Region. It will take a long time to go to Dongrihe. I'm worried that he won't be able to handle the work."

Xie Zhenqi smiled and said, "You are not worried about his work, but you are worried that he will not give you face, right? The first few times you met, you did not have a good face towards Secretary Liu."

"This..." Zhao Qiu Ming really thought so in his heart, especially since Liu Fusheng wanted the Zhao family to revise the clan rules, which was a very difficult matter.

Before he could finish his struggle, Xie Zhenqi said, "You decide what to do. If Liu Fusheng doesn't agree to go to Dongrihe with you, then this opportunity should be given to Brigade Commander Xie's troops as agreed before."

"No, no!"

Zhao Qiuming said quickly: "Commander, please give me some time, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."

Xie Zhenqi said: "This is no joke. Once we decide which troops will participate in the exercise, the military region will allocate a lot of resources to support their training. We also have to report to the top leadership and formulate a corresponding military exercise plan. With so many people, how can they have time to wait for you to be fussy?"

Zhao Qiu Ming heard this, took a deep breath and said, "I will go find Liu Fusheng right away. No matter what, I will make him agree to go to Dongrihe with me."

……

Chaojiang City, in the office of the municipal party committee secretary.

When Sun Hai learned that Liu Fusheng had returned, he immediately came to report on his work.

"Master, the military exercise was so exciting. I felt like a secret agent. If there is such an opportunity again in the future, don't forget to take me with you!"

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "Why don't you submit a resignation application and join the army!"

Sun Hai curled his lips and said, "That won't work. At my age, I can only do odd jobs in the army."

After a pause, he asked curiously, "Master, you should have won the bet with the Xie family, right?"

Liu Fusheng shook his head and said, "The content of the bet is that after the military exercise is over, I will participate in another performance exercise, command a unit, and win... Obviously, this matter should be left unresolved."

Sun Hai frowned and said, "The Xie family is not trustworthy? This is too shameless."

Liu Fusheng said: "There are two reasons. First, Xie Zehua and I worked together to get first place in the military exercise, which has proved our ability. Second, with the strength and status of the Xie family, they will not be allowed to admit defeat easily. This is not a good thing for the family's reputation. Therefore, not competing is the wisest choice."

Sun Hai hesitated and said, "If you leave things alone, doesn't that mean that you have not received the support of the Xie family in terms of clan reform? In this case, isn't it meaningless for you to hold a military exercise?"

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "It is of great significance to participate in the military exercise. Now the Xie family has recognized me. They are all smart people and will definitely practice what they said in another way. In this regard, I fully believe in the magnanimity of the Xie family."

After that, Liu Fusheng changed the subject: "Let's not discuss this matter for now. Tell me about your recent work situation."

Sun Hai sighed, finally returned to the topic and began to report on his recent work.

Sun Hai has been very tired recently. According to him, Professor Wang and others have already surveyed and found that the geological conditions from Jiyang City to Jiangtou City are fully suitable for building a highway, and they have also planned the simplest and fastest route.

This matter was reported to the higher authorities and approved by the national departments.

Sun Hai said: "Building a highway involves a lot of work and requires approval from the provincial party committee and government... I have sorted out the relevant materials and will submit them to the province after your approval."

"I am mainly worried that there will be some obstruction from the provincial government, especially from the provincial standing committee. It is hard to say whether it can be passed."

This matter is of great importance, and Sun Hai's worries are by no means unnecessary.

Once this highway is opened, the Chaojiang area will usher in tremendous development, and it can even be said that there will be a qualitative leap.

Whether Tang Shaoying will interfere becomes particularly crucial.
