Iron Bull Legend

"Little brother, this piece of cloth is so beautiful. I want this dress. Can I have it?" Little An An was looking at the fabric in her hand, acting coquettishly, her eyes narrowed into slits due to her smile.

"Okay, I think this piece of fabric will be very good for you as well," Tie Niu said as he selected a piece of floral fabric.

Tie Niu wanted to dress up Xiao An An to be the love of Prince Gong's mansion, and make the little girl a little princess in everyone's mind, so that she would not feel lost because of her mother's escape. After all, she was still just a young child, so he would make her happy.

"These two fabrics can be made into ready-made clothes for her. I imagine that when a little girl of this age wears them, they will definitely have a special flavor of the festive Spring Festival. They can also be used as promotional items in our New Year's goods fair." Tie Niu introduced.

"Mayor, do you mean that our clothes can also be included in the New Year's Fair?" she asked nervously, her eyes full of hope.

"We must participate. How can we miss such a publicity window? In the future, our clothes will go abroad, participate in world fashion competitions, and export to earn foreign exchange."

"But our factory is so unknown that we can't participate in international competitions? Mayor, you...you're not lying to us, are you?" She finally mustered up the courage.

"Haha, this is what I think about this matter. Our clothing factory is not famous, but we are smart and passionate, and we have a united and enterprising spirit. So, if our factory is not successful, who will succeed? Let's work hard and carve out a path of our own." Tie Niu encouraged.

"Well... well, we can do it, we can definitely do it. With your encouragement and support, we are confident. I will tell your meaning loudly to everyone here, and let everyone try together." She became more and more excited as she spoke, and tears came out.

"Then hurry up and measure the little model. She wants to take this dress back to the capital and let the children in the alleys of the capital envy her."

"Ah, you're going to wear it to Beijing? Are you going to Tiananmen Square?" When she heard this, she was so excited that her hands were shaking, and her eyes revealed her yearning and desire for Tiananmen Square.

"Yes, he will definitely do that. He will probably go to meet leaders and many children. When he goes to school, many children will admire and envy him. They will tell them that these clothes are made in your factory." Tie Niu seemed to be infected as well. Suddenly, he remembered what the staff member said about going to Tiananmen Square. This is the symbol of China, and everyone yearns to go to Tiananmen Square.

"Do you really want to go to Tiananmen Square?" Tie Niu said and stared at the people present.

"Well, we really want to go to Tiananmen Square. I've seen it on TV." Although her words were simple and plain, they expressed her love for the motherland and her yearning for the country's most sacred totem.

"You guys work hard. I will go back and discuss with the city leaders to choose a suitable time for everyone to go to Beijing in batches to Tiananmen Square to watch the flag-raising ceremony." Tie Niu knew that after being immersed in a period of time, suffering unfair treatment, and going through hardships, what people nowadays lacked was yearning and faith. Now, he could learn about this from an ordinary worker, so he decided to do it.

Faith, what a sacred word it is, it makes people infinitely obsessed and yearning, and it can only allow everyone to rediscover the quiet place in everyone's heart, that is, the pure holy place in everyone's heart.

Everyone has his or her own holy place in his or her heart, a holy place of his or her own faith. Now, if we have this pure holy place, we should pursue it.

Tie Niu knew that there were so many things he should do, and he really should do something within his ability for these people. He suddenly seemed to have an impulse.

The staff member squatted beside Xiao An An with a tape measure in his hand, measuring the little girl to the best of his ability. He wanted to make the most beautiful and best clothes in the world for the little girl, and make her the most beautiful little princess in the world, and he would do his best.

When the two walked out of the exhibition hall of the garment factory, the little girl was still confused because the staff member spent too much time taking her measurements and had to make a lot of clothes for her.

"Little brother, is it because you are the mayor that he wants to make a few more sets of clothes for me?" The little girl asked in confusion, as if the mayor's sister could do this.

"No, because you can wear these beautiful custom-made clothes in Beijing and show them to many children, making them envious and treating you as a little princess." Tie Niu explained with a smile and hugged her in his arms.

"Hehe, little brother, are you kidding me? No one would make clothes for free. I'm not a kid anymore. I know everything."

"You're just a little brat, what do you know?"

Tie Niu opened the car door, put her in the passenger seat, fastened her seat belt, walked back to his driver's seat, started the car and drove away.

When two people, one big and one small, drove to the freight yard of the railway station, they saw people working in full swing there. The ground had been prepared and the walls were freshly painted, which made Tie Niu very satisfied.

There is still more than a day of preparation, so there shouldn't be any big problems. The shelves in the house have been completed, and the carpenters are working on the outdoor booths. The display frames of the booths are all made according to Tie Niu's design, and they look really impressive when they are lined up in a row.

Even after the annual meeting is over, these display racks can be separated and placed in the market for small vendors, saving their investment and making the market tidy, giving people a refreshing feeling.

"Mayor Tie, can we set up a stall here and sell goods?" a carpenter who was building a shelf asked cautiously.

"Why not? If you have any goods, you can put them here. Take your carpentry work for example, you can make some small chairs, small tables and other small items for household use. As long as there is a demand, everyone is welcome to set up a stall here." Tie Niu said to him with a smile.

"That's great. We still have a lot of small stools that we made in the past, but we have no place to sell them. We're worried about that. But, how much does a stall cost?" He was still worried that the charges here were too high, and it would be a waste of time if he couldn't sell them.

"It's free. As long as everyone is more conscious and cleans up the garbage and sends it to the designated garbage point, it's fine. I don't know what form our annual meeting in the south will take. I hope that as long as we can provide good services for everyone, let everyone make money, have something to do, and make their family happy, that's fine."

"Mayor Tie, we can also pay some fees, otherwise the government will invest in the maintenance of the venue, and these goods and so on, which will also cost a lot of money."

"Haha, you don't need to worry about these. The government didn't spend much money on this. These shelves can still be used in other markets in the future. There will be no waste. The venue didn't cost much. Compared with everyone's income, it's still worth it."

"Mayor Tie, we have participated in various activities organized by the government before. Every stall charges a flat fee regardless of whether you make money or not, and the fees for good locations are even higher. No one has ever cared about our life or death, let alone whether you make money or not." A woman passing by whispered. Obviously, she had heard about the annual meeting here and came here in advance to check out the place.

"That was in the past. We have to do this every year at the New Year's Market, and we have to create a different atmosphere every year. This year, we are just testing the waters, understanding it, and accumulating experience to provide better services for future annual markets. If we charge money for such services, it is not serving everyone, but begging for money. Don't you think this is the truth?"

"Haha, Mayor Tie, what you said is really great. I heard that some companies in the city are all thanking Mayor Tie for helping them solve their problems and finding a way out for those factories. Mayor Tie's name is very famous now. Even though they haven't met Mayor Tie, some workers have invited him home for a drink."

"I will definitely go to drink, but I really can't drink white wine. I get drunk once I drink it. I'll be happier if I drink some water," Tie Niu laughed.

"You can't let my little brother drink alcohol. He will get drunk after drinking one glass of wine and will need to sleep for a whole day and night before waking up," Xiao An An said anxiously.

"Mayor Tie, is this your sister? She's so cute," the woman praised, taking out some snacks from her bag and handing them to Xiao Anan.

"Take it. This is given to you by your elder sister. You must thank her." Tie Niu looked at Xiao An An, who was eager to eat but a little embarrassed, and leaned her little body towards Tie Niu.

"Thank you, big sister. May you have a prosperous new year." Little An An happily took it and gave a blessing that even Tie Niu didn't expect.

"Haha, this is to wish the boss a happy new year in advance. I wonder if there is a red envelope," said the carpenter with a big laugh. He was also surprised to see that such a young mayor had no airs at all and was so considerate of everyone.

"Forget about the red envelope, wait until you set up a stall to sell goods, then come over for a meal." Tie Niu was also joking. He didn't want to be criticized for bringing his sister here to ask for benefits.

Tie Niu looked around and felt quite satisfied. He just had to wait and see what the effect would be after the annual fair opened on Monday. However, Tie Niu didn't care.

Because Tie Niu is confident. After all, it is much better to sell the unsaleable goods of those enterprises in Yangcheng City at a low price to ensure the cost than to let them rot in the warehouse. In addition, Tie Niu is ready to take out part of the funds and distribute them to the poorest workers at the bottom of society and low-income families as funds for them to purchase goods for the New Year fair.

This time, Tie Niu had asked Xue Jianing to prepare 10 or 20 million yuan in funds. He also wanted Secretary Xiao Yuntian and some city leaders to go down in advance to express their condolences. In this way, if they could spend more time in the city during the last critical period, he would feel more relaxed when he returned.

The two drove directly back to the city government. Wang Ping had already discussed with his girlfriend Jiao Jiao that they would go to Huangmei Town to spend the weekend together. They also wanted to have more contact with the mayor, his family and friends.

"Mayor, you're back. We've been waiting anxiously. If you're late, we won't have lunch." Wang Ping and her boyfriend were chatting in the office. They started joking as soon as they saw Tie Niu coming up.

"We can't have lunch in Huangmei Town. Let's go to Lan's Hotel and have lunch there before going. Otherwise, there will be traffic jams on the road and we will be hungry." Tie Niu knew that there would be many transport trucks on the road to Huangmei Town and traffic jams would really occur.

"Haha, Jiao Jiao, you see, our mayor is different from previous leaders in caring about his subordinates. You still don't believe me even though I told you." Wang Ping said to her object, Director Jiao's woman. Director Jiao is now the deputy mayor, a much higher position than the office director.

"Mayor Tie, please don't treat Wang Ping like this. He has no self-awareness and now he even dares to joke with you. He has no respect for hierarchy at all. I will have a good talk with him when I get back." Jiao Jiao apologized anxiously.

"It's okay. Wang Ping and I hit it off right away. I don't have too many stinky rules. As long as we do things well, it's fine. We are all young people, and it's best if we work happily together. If there are too many restrictions, it will separate our hearts. How can we work well together? Don't you think this is the truth?"
