Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

The mother-in-law was not here to blame him, she said he was busy but she was just showing her concern.

At noon, the women all ate at home. After Zhao Qin finished her own meal, she hugged Yanyan and took Miaomiao out for a walk.

I didn't walk far before I turned around the pier.

Yanyan's big eyes rolled around, and everything she saw was full of curiosity. Her body heaved in his arms, and she made ah ah sounds from her mouth.

Zhao Qin responded with an "ah" and used a tissue to wipe her saliva.

Miaomiao was very well behaved today. She even took out a lollipop from her treasure pocket and said, "Uncle, this is for my sister."

"It's my aunt." Zhao Qin taught her countless times, but the little girl just wouldn't change.

"Oh, aunt." Miaomiao repeated, but then she added, "Uncle, my sister is drooling again."

Zhao Qin was completely speechless.

After taking the two children for a walk, it was already past two in the afternoon when they returned. Yanyan had fallen asleep in his arms.

The people at home left one after another, and the mother-in-law didn't want to stay for dinner. Zhao Qin just had a car, and sent everyone, including Sister Yan, to the town. When he got home again, he didn't go out and stayed at home.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Anguo called and said that Mayor Sun had not left yet and would come over in the evening to discuss something.

Zhao Qin probably understood that Old Sun had probably stayed here for another day, and seeing the deserted atmosphere today, he felt a little uneasy.

He needs to give him some encouragement.

But he had to trouble Aunt Wu again to prepare a richer dinner. In the evening, he received another good news: his fishing boat would arrive home early tomorrow morning.

Judging from the tone, this trip should be fruitful.

As soon as he hung up the phone call from the boat, Lao Sun, Zhao Anguo, and Lao Zhang came in from the outside. They went straight to the restaurant without going into the house.

Old Sun had no psychological burden at all for eating at Zhao Qin's house. If he were to go to someone else's house, the other party might be asking for something from him.

But this does not exist in Zhao Qin's family. Not only does he now have direct connections in the city, but even when he visits the provincial government, they have to make time to receive him.

"Aqin, there are only 9 people here today." Old Sun said impatiently as soon as he sat down.

Zhao Qin smiled and helped Aunt Wu serve the dishes. When all the dishes were served, he said to Aunt Wu, "Take Ah Xue's food to the living room. You can eat there too."

After Aunt Wu left, he said, "Leader, you are too impatient. It was purely accidental that so many people came yesterday. It is reasonable to have these people here today."

"You mean it will be like this from now on? How can that be possible?" Good guy, he wanted to give Zhao Qin a reassurance, but in the end the other person just said something reasonable. How could he accept it?

"How about the town grant me some money so I can put an ad on CCTV. The effect should be better."

Old Sun grinned bitterly, "The total funds of the town are probably not as much as your village. Even if I want to give, I don't have the money."

"Leader, don't be impatient, let the bullet... no, let things ferment for a while."

"The county leaders are still waiting for my report. The situation was very good yesterday, but today..."

Zhao Qin looked at Lao Sun suspiciously, then filled the three people's glasses with wine. Lao Zhang wanted to grab the bottle to pour the wine, but he failed.

There was no one else in the restaurant at the moment. Zhao Qin put down the bottle and asked directly, "Boss, are you going to be promoted?"

Zhao Anguo and Lao Zhang were both stunned. How did they end up talking about promotion while talking about village matters?

Old Sun was a little embarrassed and sighed after a while, "Since you asked, I will tell you the truth. You have developed well, and I have made some achievements.

Now there is some news that they are going to transfer me to the National Development and Reform Commission, but the final document on this matter has not yet been issued.”

What I mean is, you just need to know it, but don't spread it to anyone else.

"Director of the Development and Reform Commission?" Zhao Anguo asked a nonsense question.

If he wasn't the director, Lao Sun's transfer there would be a demotion. Strictly speaking, the director of a county development and reform commission is at the section level, and Lao Sun is also a section level now, so it can be considered a lateral transfer.

But it's not counted that way in the system. This transfer is considered a half-level promotion.

Old Sun is in his 40s this year and has nearly 20 years of official career ahead of him. If he continues like this, he may be able to retire as a director or deputy director, which is quite impressive.

"Congratulations." Zhao Qin raised his glass. Zhao Anguo and Lao Zhang also reacted and raised their glasses to congratulate.

"Aqin, now you know why I'm so anxious." Old Sun said this after finishing the wine in his glass.

"Leader, I was just joking. I told you that it was an accident that so many people came yesterday. I have some follow-up arrangements. After all, the village doesn't have much money, so it's impossible to promote it on a large scale.

So I took a different approach, and I think the results will be available in the next week. If it doesn’t work…”

Zhao Qin hesitated for a moment, "Then I will lend money to the village, and we will use formal channels to promote it."

Old Sun did not hesitate any more. Ah Qin had given his all. He knew how to report to his superiors later. He put his worries aside and the four of them talked about the next step in the development of the village.

I didn't drink much wine.

After dinner, Zhao Qin called Wang Jiasheng and asked him to drive Lao Sun's car to take him back to town.

He took a look around the hotel and only went home to rest after hearing that everyone had returned.

Nothing happened that night. Early the next morning, Zhao Qin wanted to see Lao Huang and his group off.

"Mr. Zhao, thank you for your hospitality." Huang Zhongjun said politely.

"I should thank you. I have some things to discuss in detail when I find time to go to the capital."

I expressed my gratitude to everyone and watched the car leave.

Zhao Qin was about to go home to get a car to go to town when he saw Lao Bao and three friends coming over. "Ah Qin, they want to visit Tianqin. Do you think it's convenient?"

"That's convenient. I happen to be going to town too. Let's go together."

He didn't let them wait and simply asked his father for the car keys, drove his Audi, and took the four of them to the town.

As usual, Chen Dong was already waiting at the dock with his helpers. Dayu received the call and waited at the door.

Zhao Qin did not follow him in. He came to Chen Dong and looked at his watch. "It's early. Didn't we say it was around 9 o'clock yesterday? It's only 8: now."

"The ship is at sea, it's normal to be early or late."

Chen Dong asked about the situation in the village again, and the two chatted casually for a while. This time they waited a little longer, until about half past ten, when the two boats appeared one after another.

Seeing the ship dock, Zhao Qin breathed a sigh of relief and finally let go of the worry in his heart.

"Why did you take so long?" he asked impatiently when he saw his eldest brother getting off the boat.

"The fuel injectors on the Solidarity were dripping oil, and the engine shut down in the middle of the night. Fortunately, we brought spares, but it took some time to replace them."

"Aqin, I didn't check thoroughly before sailing. I thought it would be fine if I made another trip, but problems still occurred." Du Xi looked apologetic as he got off the boat.

"Brother Du, don't say that. As long as it's a machine, it's normal for some accidents to happen. Let's not save this little money.

Next time, if we think it should be changed, we will change it in time. "

After saying that, he asked everyone to hurry up and start unloading the fish.

At this time, Lao Bao and his companions seemed to have heard that Zhao Qin's fishing boat had returned, and they also rushed to the dock to watch the excitement.

"Aqin, what did you gain from this trip?"

"It's a good harvest, Mr. Bao. Wait and see what you want to eat. I'll make arrangements for lunch."
