As soon as he came out of the deer farm, Zhou Yi received a call from Shan Wenxu.

"Tan Yanzhong from Tianlai City asked me for your cell phone number and he will probably call you today." Lao Dan, who was promoted to secretary of the Gufeng Municipal Party Committee last year, yawned and said lazily.

"Are you familiar with each other? What's the situation with Tan Yanzhong?"

Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, because he knew that Chen Yurong's favor was obtained through Zhong Baixiang, the executive vice governor of Guangdong Province, and Wang Jinyu, the mayor of Tianlai City, but now it was the municipal party secretary Tan Yanzhong who wanted to contact him actively. The twists and turns involved were really intriguing.

"I met him once on my second uncle's birthday. I don't think he had any other intentions. He probably just wanted to take credit for Secretary Zhou and take the opportunity to get to know him. There aren't too many people in the circle who want to meet Secretary Zhou, are they?" Shan Wenxu said with a laugh.

What he said was the truth, which could not be more straightforward. The current situation was that many people were racking their brains to get in touch with the Jian family, and the most effective way was to get to know Zhou Yi, the son-in-law of the Jian family.

From this point of view, his family has already walked ahead of most people.

The fact that he and Zhou Yi turned from enemies to friends, and then developed into close friends, and had a close relationship for many years, has always been a correct choice that he is proud of.

The elders in the family, and even his second uncle who was always reluctant to give compliments, all praised him for his "long-term vision and broad mind", which made him very proud.

"Then I'd better call Secretary Tan. I have to thank my parents' neighbors for what they did. Send me his cell phone number later!" Zhou Yi took the initiative to say after listening to Lao Dan's talk about Tan Yanzhong's "contributions".

"Old Zhou, please give me some face. I'll treat you to a meal when I go to the provincial capital for a meeting after National Day!" Shan Wenxu was so happy that Old Zhou immediately gave him enough face just because he said something casually.

It wasn't a big deal, but he wanted to show Tan Yanzhong and others how close his relationship with Lao Zhou was.

"Okay, I'll wait for your arrangement." Zhou Yi agreed with a smile.

Lao Dan and Sima Yanan are the few close friends he has in his life. He cherishes this friendship very much and sincerely wants to maintain it forever.

After receiving Shan Wenxu's message, he looked at the time and then dialed the phone.

Tianlai Municipal Party Committee.

Municipal Party Committee Secretary Tan Yanzhong had just finished a secretary's office meeting, discussing the project approval of the Southeast Expressway with Mayor Wang Jinyu, Deputy Municipal Party Committee Secretary Ding Chi, Organization Minister Yang Li, and Political and Legal Affairs Commission Secretary and Public Security Bureau Director Jing Fei.

"Comrade Jinyu, please inform the provincial leaders as soon as possible. We must get the support of the province for these two projects..."

Tan Yanzhong and Wang Jinyu walked side by side towards the door. At this time, Secretary Xiao Yuan hurried over with a mobile phone and whispered, "Secretary, your call!"

Wang Jinyu tactfully stepped aside and spoke to Deputy Secretary Ding Chi and Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission Jing Fei. However, the three words "Secretary Zhou" inadvertently reached his ears, which startled him and he subconsciously looked towards Tan Yanzhong.

"Secretary Zhou, you are too polite. It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning." Tan Yanzhong laughed heartily, as if he didn't care that Wang Jinyu and others over there could hear it.

When he took the phone, he heard the secretary add in a low voice, "It's a call from Secretary Zhou Yi of Anping City." After being surprised, he quickly reacted and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Shan Wenxu's face is really extraordinary!

No wonder there are rumors that Zhou Yi, Shan Wenxu and Sima Yanan are the iron triangle...

"I deserve your thanks. If I had known Wenxu had this relationship, I would have bothered Secretary Tan a long time ago." Zhou Yi said with a smile.

Of course he knew who was the main person who helped him, but Tan Yanzhong also contributed to some extent. In particular, the other party was ruthless and reported directly to the provincial party committee leaders the illegal behavior of the Shao family's relative, the deputy director of the Provincial Department of Justice, who knowingly broke the law with the intention of interfering with the judicial justice of Tianlai City, resulting in the other party's suspension for investigation. It is said that the discipline inspection department will also intervene. If he is not clean, he will most likely end up under double supervision.

Zhou Yi's idea was that he would make the phone call to express his gratitude, while Chen Yurong would have her husband express his gratitude as his wife, in order to achieve fairness and balance.

Is it fair? Is it balanced? Mayor Wang doesn't think so at all.

I have clearly made great efforts, so why should Tan Yanzhong be the one being thanked?

He stole the credit from him and didn't even mention him. It was not fair of Mr. Tan to do this!

The Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission and the Public Security Bureau Chief Jing Fei who was standing next to him also felt a little unbalanced. He was the real executor of this matter!

If nothing else, at least Secretary Zhou should know his name, right? This request is not too much, right?

Tan Yanzhong felt it was very fair and balanced!

Who told you that you couldn't talk to Zhou Yi? Besides, you are connected to the executive vice governor Zhong Baixiang. It's enough for Zhong Baixiang to be satisfied with you. Why do you insist on getting Zhou Yi to thank you in person?

From this we can see the difference in treatment between the two parties. He received a call from Zhou Yi, while Wang Jinyu and Zhong Baixiang could only get a sentence "Zhou Yi thanks you" from Chen Yurong at most!

Jing Fei seemed to see that Mayor Wang was unhappy, and after thinking for a moment, he whispered, "Mayor, the province has been calling for 'expanding the circle of friends, helping each other, mutual benefit, and win-win cooperation.' Our city currently only has four sister cities. Do you think we can find an opportunity to develop another one this year?"

Wang Jinyu looked at Jing Fei in astonishment, thinking to himself, you are really a smart guy, you can come up with such a good idea!

Although this matter still needs Tan Yanzhong's approval in the end, how can Tan Yanzhong not agree? More importantly, he now has a reason to contact Zhou Yi on the phone!

If someone asked him at this time, is it really that important to connect with Zhou Yi?

He would reply without hesitation with two words: That’s right!

Not to mention that Zhou Yi is now in his prime and has a bright future, even if he is a playboy, he still wants to make friends with him. Of course, if Zhou Yi is really a playboy, Secretary Jian would never choose Zhou Yi as his son-in-law!

So that night, Zhou Yi received a call from Wang Jinyu, the mayor of Tianlai City.

Secretary Zhou was a little surprised, because Tan Yanzhong called to take credit because of Shan Wenxu's relationship, and although Wang Jinyu helped a lot, he went directly to him without going through the middleman Chen Yurong. This behavior seemed a bit hasty and presumptuous no matter how you look at it.

"Hello, Mayor Wang, I've been looking for an opportunity to thank you!" Zhou Yi said with a smile.

"It's just a small favor, not worth Secretary Zhou's attention. I called this time mainly to discuss with Secretary Zhou. Our Tianlai City is interested in forming a sister city with Anping, helping each other and supporting each other. I wonder what Secretary Zhou thinks?"

Wang Jinyu asked in a tentative tone.

Although he was confident that Zhou Yi would not refuse such a good thing, what if the other party did not play by the rules and rejected his proposal?
