Chapter 1419: Operator Xiao Dong

Chapter 1419: Operator Xiao Dong

The next day.

Tuesday morning.

The weather warmed up, and Dong Xuebing wore a short-sleeved shirt before heading out. Instead of going to the County Party Committee compound, he drove straight to the County Investment Promotion Bureau.

Inside the investment promotion bureau compound.

"Mayor Dong."

" Mayor Dong."

"Uh, good morning to you."

There were three departments in this small compound.

Others in the government offices also recognized Dong Xuebing, greeting him one after another.

Due to various incidents, Dong Xuebing had gained a somewhat infamous reputation in Zhen Shui County. While the ordinary people may not be too concerned, people in the government offices were well aware of him. He went to the central government to ask for money, fell off a building in the city, injured someone in a fight, possessed medical skills, and so on.

Dong Xuebing exchanged greetings with them.

Upstairs.

Second-floor office area.

When Dong Xuebing arrived, he found that all four people from the investment promotion bureau were inside, gathered around Bureau Director Zheng Dayou, discussing something.

"Ah."

" Mayor Dong."

"You've arrived."

Everyone immediately came forward.

Dong Xuebing nodded, "What are you discussing?"

Zheng Dayou said, "We're discussing how to handle the matters for the investment promotion meeting."

"Okay," Dong Xuebing said, "As I mentioned yesterday if you have any suggestions, let me know. The main issue is how to use the funds allocated. Old Zheng, you go ahead."

Zheng Dayou momentarily pondered, "I think we should buy a car."

Dong Xuebing looked at Cheng Yujie, "And you, Sister Cheng?"

Hearing Dong County Mayor addressing her politely, Cheng Yujie was pleasantly surprised and said, "I also think buying a car is a good idea."

Chen Yunsong also said, "Our investment promotion bureau doesn't have a single car, which is quite embarrassing. Every time investors come, we have to apply to the county, and we still can't get approval most of the time. We can only borrow cars from the Health Bureau and Education Bureau. It's just to leave a good impression on the investors."

Dong Xuebing looked at the office clerk Gong Na, "Xiao Gong."

Gong Na hesitated but also suggested buying a car.

"It seems everyone has discussed it," Dong Xuebing nodded slightly. "Alright, let's buy a car, around two hundred thousand each. Let's start with two cars."

Zheng Dayou was surprised, "Two hundred thousand for two cars?"

Others were also shocked. Only a few cars in Zhen Shui County were worth two hundred thousand RMB. They didn't expect Mayor Dong to not only agree but also be so decisive. They didn't know that Mayor Dong and they were on the same page. Investment promotion, to a large extent, was about face. Since they couldn't change the objective investment environment in Zhen Shui County, they had to put more effort into appearances. Dong Xuebing intended to buy cars, and if given a few million, he even wanted to improve the office environment and establish a separate workplace.

Zheng Dayou, of course, thought that two hundred thousand for a car was good. However, he hesitated, "Will the County agree to this?"

"Don't worry about that. The County strongly supports our investment promotion activities this time. There is a Party Committee meeting in the afternoon, and I will try to get more policies. However, since the County supports us so much, we cannot disappoint the County leaders or the people in the county. Let me make it clear: we can only succeed this time, not fail."

Zheng Dayou and several staff felt the pressure.

"Alright, let's start working," Dong Xuebing instructed. He sat directly in an office area with everyone, "Give me all the investment promotion project information that our County can provide."

Gong Na, the lowest-ranked staff here, naturally had the task of running around. After acknowledging this, she immediately found the information for him.

Dong Xuebing browsed through it.

While Gong Na went to get water from the water room, Dong Xuebing looked at Chen Yunsong, "Xiao Chen, go and order the cars. Try to get them as soon as possible. Don't worry about the money. It will be here before the afternoon." After that, he turned to Cheng Yujie, "Sister Cheng, give me a copy of the information we have on the investors, and then call each of them."

Cheng Yujie immediately responded, "Okay."

Zheng Dayou saw Mayor Dong sitting in the office area with everyone, sharing the same joys and sorrows. He couldn't go back to his own office. If Mayor Dong didn't go, how could he? So, Zheng Dayou moved his things from his office to the office area.

Everyone was busy.

Ring, ring, ring.

The front desk phone rang.

Gong Na seemed to be getting the information and wasn't around.

Chen Yunsong went out, Cheng Yujie was making calls to contact investors, and Zheng Dayou was busy calling old friends who had previously invested in Zhen Shui County.

Dong Xuebing took a look and decided to go to the front desk himself. He picked up the phone and said, "Hello, Zhen Shui County Investment Promotion Bureau."

"Yunsong, it's me."

"Who are you?"

"I'm your sister."

"Xiao Chen is not here. I'm Dong Xuebing."

Then a surprised voice came from the other end of the phone, "Mayor Dong, oh, hey, why are you answering the front desk phone? I, I'm Chen Xiaomei."

Dong Xuebing was taken aback, "Old Chen."

Chen Xiaomei said awkwardly, "Sorry, Mayor Dong, I misheard. I thought it was my brother."

Chen Yunsong and Dong Xuebing were about the same age, and their voices were naturally somewhat similar. Dong Xuebing said indifferently, "I asked Xiao Chen to order the car. Call his mobile phone. Oh, Xiao Chen is your brother."

"Yeah, my younger brother."

"Okay, got it."

Relationships are everywhere. Dong Xuebing remembered it after hearing it. Since he had ambiguous interactions with Chen Xiaomei, if she said Xiao Chen was her real brother, he would naturally take more care of him.

After hanging up the phone, Dong Xuebing saw that Gong Na hadn't returned home, so he continued to answer the phone.

Ring, ring, ring

Ring, ring, ring

Three or four calls in a row.

Seeing Dong Xuebing becoming a telephone operator, Zheng Dayou and others were dumbfounded. After reacting, they quickly went up to try to take over. Letting a County Leader answer the phone was indeed a bit However, Dong Xuebing didn't agree. He told them to focus on their work, "Just busy with your tasks."

Ring, ring, ring, the phone rang again.

Dong Xuebing answered, "Hello, Zhen Shui County Investment Promotion Bureau."

Unexpectedly, Jiang Fangfang's voice came from the other end, "The news has spread throughout the county government compound that you went to the Investment Promotion Bureau to be a telephone operator. I didn't believe it. I thought I'd try it, and it turns out to be true."

Dong Xuebing smiled wryly, "Short-handed, can't let everyone be busy while I watch."

Jiang Fangfang lightly said, "You're right. Okay, I won't disturb your work."

Dong Xuebing, with a County Leader's dignity, became a telephone operator, which was somewhat speechless, but precisely because of Dong Xuebing's hands-on effort and determination, he infected everyone at the Investment Promotion Bureau. Zheng Dayou, Cheng Yujie, and Gong Na seeing Mayor Dong this way, were inspired. They became more serious, investing all their energy into their work.
