Qi Tongwei: Sign-in relationship started during student days

Chapter 318 Changes in Qijia Village

As soon as I got off the train, another soldier came up to me.

This time Qi Tongwei returned quietly, intending to investigate the specific situation first, so he only notified Ma Xiaojun.

Ma Xiaojun has gained weight.

Qi Tongwei almost didn't recognize it at first glance. His clothes were no longer so rustic, and he was full of confidence.

Can you not be confident?

The 25-year-old township head was rumored to be taking over the position of township party secretary at the end of the year.

There are only one or two 27-year-old township leaders in the entire province. This is all thanks to Qi Tongwei's political achievements in Qijia Village and his promotion.

The two hugged each other warmly, talked and laughed, and got into the village head's special car.

Seeing that Qi Tongwei was still so affectionate, Ma Xiaojun felt relieved.

As soon as he got in the car, Ma Xiaojun couldn't wait to report to Qi Tongwei the changes that had taken place in the past few years.

"Tongwei, our village has changed a lot in recent years, especially with Qijia Village as the focus, radiating to the surrounding areas, and allowing Jinping Township to get on the fast track. It is now a famous planting base in Yantai City, with a planting area of ​​nearly 50,000 acres. The whole town is almost planted with vegetables, haha."

Qi Tongwei nodded. "Developing a planting base is a good way out, but the market must be the top priority. It would be best if the township government could control it in the future. Relying on Huawei Group is equivalent to letting others control your profits, which is not advisable."

As early as a few years ago, Qi Tongwei pointed out this problem again. After all, Huawei Group is a private enterprise, and everything is based on profit.

If Qi Tongwei hadn't been pushing behind the scenes, the purchase price of vegetables would have been even lower than it is now.

It is undeniable that vegetable bases were a good opportunity in the past few years.

But things change unpredictably. Handong Province is a large plain province, and vegetable bases have become the most easily replicated wealth-making project at present.

There are too many people following the trend, and they have formed a scale. The competitive pressure is increasing day by day. It has become somewhat undesirable to continue to ride on the coattails of Huawei Group.

Firstly, it would be difficult for Huawei Group to bear such a large scale.

Secondly, it is not clear when this big bomb will explode within Huawei Group. It would of course be best if we can get out of it.

Ma Xiaojun said: "We have been working hard on this and established a relevant department two years ago.

After two years of development, the results have been good. We have established long-term cooperative relationships with many farmers' markets and catering industries. Except for the base in Qijia Village, the sales of other villages are not entirely dependent on Huawei Group.

We are also working on brand building and market promotion, striving to make Jinping Township a well-known brand and enhance its recognition and competitiveness."

Qi Tongwei nodded continuously and praised, "Not bad, Xiaojun, you've grown a lot." He patted Ma Xiaojun's fat belly and said, "You've gained weight, you need to lose some weight, you can't gain any more."

Ma Xiaojun is just over 1.6 meters tall. Due to malnutrition in childhood, it didn't seem like a big deal when he was short and thin, but now that he has grown fat and become chubby, to the people he looks like a typical corrupt official.

It’s okay now that the Internet is not well developed, but once it becomes well developed, it will really affect the reputation.

Ma Xiaojun scratched his head and explained, "Tongwei, you know that when you are in this position, you have to socialize sometimes.

At first I enjoyed it, but now I am annoyed. Sometimes you have to drink.

I can't stop drinking once I start. Let alone exercising, I can't even take a break. Now my dinner plans are booked until after the New Year.

There's a popular saying these days: If you can't drink, you have no future; if you drink nine ounces, you'll be given the right training; if you pass out after just one drink, you'll have no chance of officialdom.

Qi Tongwei sighed, "Yes, the higher-ups have repeatedly warned us to stop the practice of eating and drinking, but sometimes we can't get anything done if we don't feed these people.

But you have to take it easy and pay attention to two red lines. One is the red line of your body. A healthy body is the capital of revolution.

Another red line for being an official is that you should eat and drink in moderation, try not to exceed the limit, and don't take or be greedy.

In official circles, as long as you are not greedy, no one can do anything to you."

Ma Xiaojun readily agreed, "Tongwei, don't worry, I'll only take what I should take.

By the way, how long have you been at home this year?"

"Stay for two days, and then go to Jingzhou on the second day of the New Year."

Ma Xiaojun felt envious when he heard this. He had heard over the years that Qi Tongwei had connections in the province.

But he was not jealous. Given their relationship, as long as he did his job well, it would not be a problem for him to surpass most people in the future.

In other words, his current status has surpassed many people. Even among students from Handong University, he can be considered the best.

25 There are regular section chiefs, but those with real power are rare.

"Can you come back on the sixth day?"

Qi Tongwei asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

Ma Xiaojun smiled sheepishly and said, "I'm getting married, and I'm planning to invite everyone to a small gathering."

Qi Tongwei was delighted. "Not bad. Where is the girl from?"

"The alumni of the class of '91 are also our alumni who came from Handong."

"Well, you kid, you are causing trouble for my junior sister."

Ma Xiaojun laughed foolishly, "We knew each other before. She happened to be assigned to my place. We became familiar with each other and started to get together."

Qi Tongwei calculated and said, "Okay, I'll try my best to make time. If I don't make it, don't blame me."

"How could that be? I know you're busy. The last time I saw Luo Qian, she complained to me, saying that the kids aren't familiar with you anymore. Come if you have time, but forget it if you don't."

Qi Tongwei smiled slightly, "When you reach this position, you have no control over your own affairs. Your time belongs to the people and the country, but not to you."

Every day there are endless meetings and paperwork, investment promotion, and communication. Only this official with a little sense of responsibility can be busy.

Qi Tongwei sometimes thought that if he were to be a corrupt official, he would have endless leisure time.

As they were talking, the Santana sped towards Qijia Village. In less than an hour, the scene that came into view was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Familiar is the place where Qi Tongwei lived in the past, and there are always memories of him there. Unfamiliar is the wide road with dense camphor trees on both sides, forming a straight landscape line.

On both sides of the road are endless white plastic greenhouses.

Qi Tongwei said: "The cadres in Yantai City have done a good job. The road has been built all the way to Jinping Township."

Ma Xiaojun replied, "Our Jinping Township, as the source of Handong's greenhouse vegetable base, is a living signboard. The municipal and county party committees both attach great importance to it and have specially built roads for it."

"That's great. Life is getting better and better. By the way, what's going on with everyone in the village being so restless?"

Ma Xiaojun hesitated, "Tongwei, you'll understand when you get back. It's hard to explain..."

The people of Qijia Village are either Qi Tongwei's neighbors or related relatives, so Ma Xiaojun really couldn't say it clearly.

Qi Tongwei was a little curious about the other party's suspense, so he raised his voice and said, "Speak!"

Ma Xiaojun hesitated a little, "Tongwei, then I'll tell you."

"Say it, say it."

Ma Xiaojun thought for a moment and organized his words, "Over the years, under the guidance of Huawei Group and Tongwei, Qijia Village has received quite a bit of dividends every year.

Especially last year, each person received an average of more than 20,000 yuan.

People have become rich, but their simplicity has been lost.

They spent their days eating, drinking and having fun, and didn't even farm the land. They spent their time eating, drinking and having fun, making Qijia Village a mess.

There has been a rumor in the village recently that they want to force Huawei Group to withdraw its shares and let all villagers hold the shares.

If I hadn't used your name to pressure them over the years, I'm afraid this base would have disbanded."
