93: Chapter 93 Vice Mayor Wang Shows Concern for the Economy of Mishui Township
The Police Station car led the way, while the Municipal Government official car carrying Secretary Wang Shengli followed behind.
The motorcade of county leaders also filed out one after another.
Sun Ning, sitting in the County Party Committee's number one car, watched this scene with a hint of amusement in his heart.
The roads in Mingyue Village and the surrounding villages were the most difficult to traverse in Mishui Township.
That was precisely why Sun Ning had placed his development priorities on the villages to the south.
The road from the township to the Mingyue Villages was the first to be under construction; building upon the previous foundation, more than half had already been completed.
The remaining sections were in relatively more difficult terrain.
This kind of road condition was only suitable for motorcycles; a four-wheeled vehicle could shake a person to death.
"Party Secretary, Vice Mayor Wang Pingan is certainly very concerned about the economic work of our Mishui Township on this trip!"
"Vice Mayor Wang Pingan was previously the official in charge of our Gongfan County; it is only natural for him to show concern for the mountain folks!"
Inside the car, Sun Ning couldn't help but add a remark, and Secretary Wang Shengli responded in kind.
In truth, it was nothing more than Sun Ning venting his thoughts.
Vice Mayor Wang Pingan's first stop for inspection was not the education issue where there were outstanding achievements, but rather Mingyue Village.
Of course, one could also say that Vice Mayor Wang Pingan was going deep into the front lines of the mountainous area to inspect the mountain primary school.
And then, on the way, he took the opportunity to learn about the featured cave dwelling project in Mingyue Village.
Although their divisions of labor were different, he was a Vice Mayor with a higher standing; it was perfectly acceptable for him to take a look around.
Once brought out into the open, no one could say anything against it.
Despite the teasing, Sun Ning couldn't help but sigh, "Isn't he a bit too impatient?"
"It's just an inability to adapt to the change in status. Once he comes to his senses, he might even regret today's impulsiveness!"
Vice Mayor Wang Pingan was suffering from being too close to the situation; the bystander sees more clearly.
Suddenly going from a County Party Committee Secretary with great power to the lowest-ranked Vice Mayor.
It was inevitable that he would feel a sense of loss for a while.
His inspection of Mishui Township this time was not without the intention of finding a new direction.
It was just that his position as Vice Mayor wasn't even stable yet, and he was already trying to extend his reach into other fields.
What would the other Vice Mayors of the Municipal Government think of this?
To put it bluntly, Vice Mayor Wang Pingan was being somewhat eager for instant success!
Sun Ning gave Secretary Wang Shengli a knowing smile, "Party Secretary is quite carefree; we still have the media interview car behind us, after all."
"What is his is his, and what isn't, he simply cannot snatch away. When you first proposed the featured economy, was I not tempted? Yet, after calming down, didn't I still remain still?"
Speaking of this, Secretary Wang Shengli sighed deeply.
He could feel that the featured economy proposed by Sun Ning was very promising and made him very tempted.
However, he was not confident that these things could be accomplished.
Not to mention that these matters involved political risks, but without any precedents, they didn't even know how to operate them.
However, Vice Mayor Wang Pingan had set his sights on Mingyue Village.
This matter could be considered to have started during his term, and it was enough to count as being conducted under his leadership.
This was his political capital.
Sun Ning was noncommittal about Secretary Wang Shengli's statement; if Vice Mayor Wang Pingan had someone above him to put in a good word, then even if the credit wasn't his, it would become his.
But, he didn't have anyone above him; on the contrary, it was Sun Ning who had someone above him.
Therefore, Vice Mayor Wang Pingan couldn't get this credit, but that didn't stop him from having such thoughts.
Once Vice Mayor Wang Pingan proved that he was adept at developing the economy during his term, and then put in some effort himself, it would be of great benefit to his future work assignments.
These were all long-term and far-reaching plans.
It wouldn't be easy for Vice Mayor Wang Pingan to reap the fruits of others' labor.
"Party Secretary, don't be in such a rush!"
"Those so-called featured economies rely on the government's service awareness, and the conditions are not yet mature!"
"The service awareness of the local government is far from enough; they don't even understand the most basic economic operations."
"The work of the Party Secretary is heavy and the road is long!"
These words were not the first time Sun Ning had said them to Secretary Wang Shengli.
This was also the reason why Secretary Wang Shengli was more restrained than Vice Mayor Wang Pingan.
In the future life, Sun Ning had witnessed the impact of a service-oriented government on niche tourism.
For example, the Martial Arts City in relation to Bianzhou City.
For example, Pangxilai in relation to Caowei City.
As long as the government is willing to serve enterprises and serve the people.
Then it will eventually gain the support of the people.
The principle that sincerity is always the ultimate weapon; Sun Ning understood this principle better than anyone.
The vehicles sped along the county road, and Secretary Wang Shengli subconsciously looked out the window at the road under construction.
Now, he was the County Party Committee Secretary of Gongfan County, the direct superior of Mishui Township.
He was able to accompany them in person this time, partly because of Vice Mayor Wang Pingan, as he didn't want to give people any excuse to criticize, and partly because he wanted to come to Mishui Township for a look around.
"You've stirred up so many things in Mishui Township, yet you don't invite the County Party Committee or the County Government to see the achievements. Don't always think about just keeping your head down and grinding away; this is not the era where 'good wine doesn't fear the depth of the alley' anymore."
"It's not that, I was just afraid of disturbing the leaders' work. These meager achievements now are not worth showing off, and I was afraid of making the leaders laugh."
The two chatted idly, one sentence after another.
Before long, the motorcade entered a section of road that was more difficult to traverse.
Both of them couldn't help but grab the handles in the car.
Facing this road condition, Secretary Wang Shengli gave a wry smile and said, "This kind of road condition is tough on the leaders. By the way, can the construction schedule of this road keep up with the opening of the cave dwellings?"
"That would be thanks to the strong support of the leaders for our Mishui Township; building this road is a piece of cake!"
"We have already made full preparations on our side; after the leaders return, we will head to Zhongzhou for promotional work."
It was just road construction; it wasn't that difficult.
Although Mishui Township was located in a mountainous area, it was the kind of low-altitude earth mountain, so there were no particularly difficult engineering projects, and therefore, progress was very fast.
Plus, the funds for Mishui Township could be allocated in a timely manner, so the company contracted to build this road was very willing to cooperate with the construction schedule.
The reason why the construction schedule was so fast also had Sun Ning's personal motives involved.
Of course, every job has its priorities; it's just a matter of being a step faster or a step slower.
I don't know how much time had passed, but the cars finally arrived at Mingyue Village with great difficulty.
The road also came to an end here.
The cave dwellings were not accessible by car; they were all small country paths.
The reason why the road was not built was something Sun Ning had done on purpose.
This path was narrow and long, with dense vegetation, possessing a unique atmosphere.
The surrounding villages were the same.
The cave dwellings were not gathered together; instead, there were a few on this hilltop and a few on that mountainside.
Just for these people coming from the offices, if they wanted to walk around, they wouldn't be able to finish in a day.
Not to mention anything else, Sun Ning clearly saw that the few young girls from the Propaganda Department who had just gotten off the car were vomiting wretchedly.
When the motorcade arrived, Village Party Secretary Tian Lei, leading several leaders of Mingyue Village and people from the village primary school, was already there to greet them.
After getting off the cars, there was another round of pleasantries.
After the pleasantries were finished, Vice Mayor Wang Pingan proposed to visit the Mingyue Village Primary School to inspect the reconstruction of the school in Mishui Township.
This was the main business of his visit to Mishui Township.
Vice Mayor Wang Pingan was just impatient, he wasn't stupid; he could distinguish between primary and secondary matters.
Inside the school, everyone visited the bright and clean classrooms.
On the playground, there were simple basketball hoops and ping pong tables.
Even, there was a newly built library inside the school.
Vice Mayor Wang Pingan walked along, praising Wang Ling, who was explaining things beside him.
"The educational work in Mishui Township is still commendable, and the special funds have been put to good use."
