Zhang Qingyun has too many old friends in Jiangnan, and he has been basically meeting these old friends these days.

Among all of these people, the most special person is Li Gang. Zhang Qingyun has so many stories today, and Li Gang can be said to be a very critical figure among them.

Li Gang was the first to appreciate and promote Zhang Qingyun. Although the two were not very harmonious when they got along, especially for a while later, they even turned against each other, no matter what, Zhang Qingyun is still grateful to him now.

Undoubtedly, Li Gang is a standard politician. He is a typical hot outside and cold inside. He seems kind and friendly, but in fact he is powerful and ruthless. This is his advantage and his weakness. If Li Gang had not given up on Zhang Qingyun back then, perhaps the two would have been close now, which would have been a great help to Li Gang's future.

And like now, although Li Gang is deliberately moving closer to Zhang Qingyun, the relationship between the two is indifferent after all. However, there is no one above Li Gang. Apart from Zhang Qingyun, it is hard to find a beautiful battle, so it is the only way.

From this point of view, Li Gang is still not energetic and has a narrow vision after all.

Of course, Li Gang must have also reflected. During Zhang Qingyun's career, Li Gang was the key figure, and vice versa. Zhang Qingyun's rapid growth must have also affected Li Gang. He is now in his forties and can become the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of Wude City, and he has also made great contributions over the years.

In fact, Zhang Qingyun always thought that Li Gang was very good at socializing and that he had a very delicate relationship. Over the years, although Zhang Qingyun left Jiangnan, Li Gang's greetings never stopped every important festival.

Moreover, every New Year's Day, the Wude City Beijing Office would bring Li Gang's gift to the Zhang family. They were all local specialties of Wude and Yongping, local tea, freshwater fish from the Yazi River, etc., which were not very expensive, but they were all things from Zhang Qingyun's hometown, which made Zhang Qingyun often think of Li Gang.

In the Western Restaurant of Shangri-La Hotel, Rongcheng, there are only Li Gang and Zhang Qingyun in a small private room. The private room is decorated very luxuriously, with French chandeliers and white marble tables. The decoration is mainly milky white and light pink, and the atmosphere is gentle and elegant. It is a good place to talk.

Li Gang is over forty years old, but he looks very young, dressed very neatly and elegantly, showing the style of a leader. But in front of Zhang Qingyun, he was very respectful and polite. He seemed to have forgotten that the person in front of him was his secretary. All his politeness and respect were so natural that Zhang Qingyun felt that this should have been like this.

Zhang Qingyun once received a letter from Wu Dezhi in the capital. The letter said that Li Gang was deliberately downplaying Zhang’s employment experience at Yongping. I think he was using this to downplay the unpleasant experience between him and Zhang Qingyun.

Compared to Li Gang, Wu Dezhi didn't mind that he had conflicts with Zhang Qingyun, nor did he mind that he was Zhang Qingyun's boss. This may be considered the difference between Wu Dezhi and Li Gang. In fact, just in this regard, Zhang Qingyun admired Wu Dezhi even more.

Zhang Qingyun and Li Gang chatted, mostly about what happened in Jiangnan in the past few years, and both of Wu De and even Yongping mentioned some of them. However, Zhang Qingyun did not specifically ask about these things deliberately. He was worried that Li Gang would think about it and thought he had something else to say, that would be bad.

Li Gang was very happy to talk about these things, but seeing that Zhang Qingyun was not very interested, he was not easy to play solo shows. He hadn't seen him for a few years, and Zhang Qingyun's position was getting higher and higher, but it was even more difficult to understand. Li Gang was talking to Zhang Qingyun now, and he obviously felt that he couldn't understand the other party's thoughts.

It’s easy to think about it. Zhang Qingyun is now a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee. How can people understand the real power figure in East China Province so easily?

"The story of Qingyun Book, I will report to you something. You still have an impression of a union village in Yongping back then?" Li Gang said.

Zhang Qingyun's expression moved, and he immediately felt intimate. Lianhe Village is a poor village in Yuequan. When Zhang Qingyun was recording the secretary of the Yuequan Party Committee, he exhausted his efforts to get rid of poverty and become rich in the village. Now that Li Gang mentioned this place name, he immediately had an impression in his mind. "Of course I remember, but unfortunately my schedule was too tight this time, otherwise I really wanted to go back to Yongping to see it. That was my home." Zhang Qingyun said with some regret. He expressed his true feelings for this sentence.

Li Gang smiled and said, "United Village is amazing now. At the end of last year, the per capita income of the village exceeded 50,000, which became the benchmark village for the construction of our entire Jiangnan new countryside. The agricultural industry Hejing Club and the rural ecological tourism park are all very distinctive.

"Take it seriously?" Zhang Qingyun asked happily: "That's really great..." Zhang Qingyun sighed in his heart, but glanced at Li Gang. He had heard through some channels that after Li Gang was appointed Secretary of the Wude Municipal Party Committee, he looked at Yongping with a different look and regarded Yongping as his base camp for development.

Many cadres of the municipal party committee were promoted from Yongping. I think this is related to his post in Yongping? In addition, Zhang Qingyun also felt that this has something to do with him. Li Gang is worthy of being a very meticulous person.

Everyone is very concerned about the development of their hometown, and Zhang Qingyun is no exception. Last time, Zhang Denian and his two elders came home and saw the changes in Yongping. After returning to Beijing, they kept nagging Yongping's rapid development. Zhang Qingyun was also very happy. And Li Gang was also gradually reshaping his impression in Zhang Qingyun's heart through these practices!

At this moment, Secretary Fang Han pushed the door and whispered a few times in Zhang Qingyun's ear. Zhang Qingyun looked up and said, "Come on? Let them come in, they are all acquaintances!"

Fang Han slowly walked out of the door, and the door was pushed open for a moment. An elegant old man over 60 years old walked in with a smile and stretched out his hand to Zhang Qingyun from a distance. Zhang Qingyun laughed and said, "Mr. Bian, your business is getting bigger and bigger. The whole Jiangnan is full of advertisements for high-end beverages. I have just been here for a few days and I am annoyed..."

The person who came was none other than Ai Jia's family of three. Bian Huihuang walked in front, Ai Jia and his two sons followed behind, and also brought a little boy of sixty and a half.

Bian Huihuang was very excited and held Zhang Qingyun's hand in both hands and said, "Thank you, Shuhe, thank you..." Bian Huihuang's company often deals with Geng Shuang and Zhao Jiayao's investment, but they rarely deal with Zhang Qingyun, especially after Zhang Qingyun went to East China, she had never seen her in the past few years. When she saw Zhang Qingyun again, Bian Huihuang still couldn't help but reveal her true feelings.

He used to be just a local boss in Yuequan Town. Now he can become a well-known entrepreneur in Jiangnan. Although he has worked hard, if Zhang Qingyun had not found investment for him back then, he would not have been what he is today, so he did not forget his friendship with Zhang Qingyun at all.

Zhang Qingyun looked at Ai Jia. Although they were cousins, they grew up together when they were young, but they were better than brothers and sisters. They haven’t seen each other for several years. Ai Jia’s eyes were filled with mist, and she was also very excited.

Zhang Qingyun smiled and said, "Yes, I'm worthy of being my girl. I heard that you have become the vice president. I should congratulate you!"

Ai Jia smiled, but she was no longer as naughty as before, just said, "Brother, I'm not a child anymore. Look, my son is so old..."

Only then did Zhang Qingyun see clearly that Ai Jia was holding a little guy in his hand. He hurriedly walked up. Ai Jia asked the little guy to call him uncle, but the little guy ignored him and just looked at Zhang Qingyun in a daze.

Zhang Qingyun reached out and hugged him in his arms. He was a little frightened. He looked back at his mother and Ai Jia said, "Call uncle..." She raised her fist threateningly while saying that.

The child was very stubborn and his mouth was very tight. Zhang Qingyun laughed and said, "When I see me, I call you uncle. It's because my uncle is busy and I don't have time to get close to my nephew. Don't be scared by your mother. If you don't call me, don't yell. What's the big deal? Come on, let's eat delicious food..."

There was a little heart on the table, and Zhang Qingyun gave the little guy a small butter cake. The little guy picked it up in his hand, but opened his mouth and said, "Thank you uncle..."

Everyone in the room was funny, Zhang Qingyun said, "Look, this little thing has the same personality as Ai Jia, and is typically soft but not hard..."

The waiter politely served everyone to sit down. At this time, Bian Huihuang also saw Li Gang, and he couldn't help but ask for a greeting. Both of them apologized. Bian Huihuang's apology was that he came to interrupt the meeting between Li Gang and Zhang Qingyun.

Li Gang's apology was that he had delayed Zhang Qingyun for too long and missed his subsequent schedule. Zhang Qingyun waved his hand and said, "It's time for meals now. Just now, Shuhe and I only had a little snack. We haven't used the main meal yet, so let's have a meal together..."

Zhang Qingyun spoke, but he did not object, but Zhang Qingyun was only interested in his little nephew, and his uncles and nephews became familiar with each other in a while. The little guy was named Bian Zhaolin, one and a half years older than Manman, and now he is a first-grade elementary school student. "I participated in the children's English program on Jiangnan TV, which was amazing. I kept showing off my English to my uncle.

I have to say that having a child is a good buffer. As Zhang Qingyun’s current identity, today’s banquet was destined to be very dull, but because of a little guy, the child is innocent and romantic, and speaks freely, the atmosphere is very good.

Li Gang and Bian Huihuang also talked a lot on the table. Bian Huihuang is no longer the same as before. In the past, he was afraid of officials and felt that he was inferior to others. However, now he has become the most famous entrepreneur in Jiangnan and has been newly elected as a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. He has become a well-known person in the area. His demeanor of a successful person is fully demonstrated in his words and deeds.
