Chapter 2381 Peng Zhen's Persuasion

"So the reason I came here today is actually to privately report to the mayor in detail all aspects involved in the selection of a new site for the No. 1 Middle School. This will allow the mayor to make judgments and decisions more conveniently and accurately." Peng Zhen said very "sincerely".

"Is there something behind the construction of a new No. 1 Middle School in a different location?" Qin Feng looked surprised.

"Yes, and it's deeply involved." Peng Zhen nodded.

"Then why didn't Shao Hongli tell me about this?"

"Mayor Hongli, there are some things that are definitely not convenient to say. This is why I didn't report to you at work but came to your home after get off work to disturb you." Peng Zhen explained.

"Then tell me, I'm listening." Qin Feng said to Peng Zhen after taking another sip of wine.

Peng Zhen was not joking. He slowly and carefully explained to Qin Feng everything involved in the dispute over the selection of the new site for the No. 1 Middle School in the city.

Peng Zhen explained Lixin Group's intentions clearly without reservation, and also explained Jiang Longjun's ideas very clearly, which were almost the same as what Chen Guohua said to Qin Feng.

If Qin Feng didn't know whose interests Peng Zhen represented, he would have really believed that Peng Zhen was sincerely doing this for his own good.

"You mean that the reason why Mayor Hongli went to so much trouble to change the site from Nanshan New District to Xinyang City was actually the idea of ​​Lixin Group?" Qin Feng asked knowingly.

"I think so. After all, if the No. 1 Middle School in the city moves to Xinyang City, it will be able to completely revitalize several real estate projects of Lixin Real Estate and turn losses into profits. It will be worth tens of billions. This is too important for Lixin Group. This is the core interest of Lixin Group, and Lixin Group will never give up." Peng Zhen said.

"Oh, I understand what you said. But Secretary Jiang still wants to put the No. 1 Middle School in Nanshan New District, so as to promote the development of Nanshan New District." Qin Feng said pretentiously. He had to push Jiang Longjun up.

"My mayor, you can't be fooled by Jiang Longjun. Jiang Longjun is very clear about the twists and turns here. If he really wants to move the No. 1 Middle School to the Nanshan New District, and bring this matter to the Standing Committee for discussion and form a resolution, who can object?"

"But why didn't he do that? Because he didn't want to offend the Lixin Group, didn't want to go against the Lixin Group, so he wanted to push you to the front as cannon fodder. On the one hand, he wanted you to offend the Lixin Group, and on the other hand, he could move the No. 1 Middle School to Nanshan New District, promote the development of Nanshan New District, get political achievements, and prepare for his next promotion. Kill two birds with one stone."

"Mayor, Jiang Longjun is a very sinister person. You can't be fooled by his appearance. You can't do anything to take advantage of others." Peng Zhen kept persuading Qin Feng.

Qin Feng made a sad face.

"He is the municipal party secretary. Even though I know he is trying to trick me, I have to do it. I was wondering why he specifically warned me about living in this villa and Miss Sun today. It turns out he was threatening me with this." Qin Feng deliberately spoke to himself.

"This matter is indeed a hot potato." Qin Feng finally sighed.

"That's why I said that the mayor shouldn't take over the job from Mayor Hongli so quickly. Let Mayor Hongli handle the matter first, and then you take over. This way, Jiang Longjun can only blame Mayor Hongli." Peng Zhen gave Qin Feng advice.

"I'm the mayor. I can't let Mayor Hongli take the blame for me, right? The most important thing is that I've already accepted this hot potato, and there's no way I can let it go."

"There's no rush for this. Just hold it in your hand and press it first, and we'll talk about it later." Qin Feng finished the wine in the glass after he said that.

"Mayor, I think..." Peng Zhen wanted to persuade Qin Feng again, but was interrupted by Qin Feng.

"Secretary-General, it's getting late. I want to rest a little. Let's stop here for today. You go back first." Qin Feng said to Peng Zhen bluntly.

Peng Zhen wanted to say something, but Qin Feng had already said this, so he could only stand up and say goodbye to Qin Feng.

"Mayor, I have something private to say." Peng Zhen couldn't help but say in the end.

"You said."

"Here in Shazhou, we cannot offend the Lixin Group for both public and private reasons. Although this may not sound good, I am definitely doing this for your own good." Peng Zhen said to Qin Feng sincerely again.

After listening to this, Qin Feng smiled, nodded, and said to Zhang Xinming: "Send the Secretary General for me."

Qin Feng sat at the table smoking a cigarette while Zhang Xinming sent Peng Zhen out.

At this time, Sun Yuhan also came out and started to clean the table.

"Xiao Sun, do you think what the secretary general said just now is right?" Qin Feng asked Sun Yuhan with a smile.

"Mayor Qin, I didn't hear anything. I'm just a nanny. How would I know about your big shots' affairs?"

Qin Feng stood up with a smile, walked to the sofa in the living room next door and sat down.

At this time, Zhang Xinming came in after sending Peng Zhen away.

"Comrade Xinming, take your bag. I still need to review a few documents. Please follow me to the study upstairs." Qin Feng said to Zhang Xinming and went upstairs.

Zhang Xinming did not follow him upstairs immediately. Instead, he made a pot of new tea in Qin Feng's cup and then carried Qin Feng's briefcase upstairs and into the study upstairs.

Qin Feng was sitting at the table in the study. When Zhang Xinming came in, he first put the teacup next to Qin Feng, then opened his briefcase, took out the documents one by one, sorted them out and placed them in front of Qin Feng.

"Sit down." Qin Feng did not look at the document, but pointed to the chair in front of him.

Zhang Xinming hesitated for a moment, then sat down on the chair obediently.

Qin Feng slowly lit a cigarette, and Zhang Xinming quickly placed the ashtray in front of Qin Feng.

"What do you think of what Peng Zhen just said?" Qin Feng asked while smoking.

Zhang Xinming obviously didn't expect Qin Feng to ask him this question. After all, he was just a secretary and did a "service" job.

"Mayor, I...I...this..." Zhang Xinming was a little flustered and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"Is what Peng Zhen said true?" Qin Feng asked again.

Zhang Xinming nodded: "It is basically true. Secretary Jiang insisted on placing the No. 1 Middle School in Nanshan New District for the overall development of Shazhou, and perhaps also for his own political achievements. Mayor Hongli has always insisted on placing the No. 1 Middle School in Xinyang City."

"From the government's perspective, it makes no sense to put it in Xinyang City, and it will not benefit the development of the entire city at all."

"But it is indeed of great benefit to the Lixin Group. The Lixin Group has spent huge sums of money to develop Xinyang City for many years, but it failed in the end. If the No. 1 Middle School in the city is moved there, it will indeed be able to revitalize their entire investment in Xinyang City." Zhang Xinming answered, but his words were still very cautious.
