Chapter 115

Listening to mine manager Zhang's description of the three people, Yang Dongsheng immediately thought of the person who had taught him to farm.

This idiot didn't meet them, did he?
"What's their license plate number?"

"What?"

"License plate number? Don't you look at the license plate number when you help someone push a cart?"

"This..." Mine Manager Zhang scratched his scalp, "I really didn't see it!"

"Tell me where you took them and what you said, and tell me everything! Do you remember these?"

"Remember, remember! I didn't take them anywhere, I just took them along the few places you just walked through, looked at them, and said the same thing. I also specifically said what you proposed 'do more, take Do more; do less, take less'."

"that's it?"

"Yes, that's all!"

Yang Dongsheng believed him for now, "What did the leader say?"

"He watched it all the way, and basically didn't say anything, but when he finally saw the stone lion, he listened to my introduction and said the same sentence as you, 'violence'."

"Really?"

"Really, really can't be more true!"

Yang Dongsheng thought about it, if this is the case, he didn't make any mistakes in principle, and there shouldn't be any hidden dangers.

"By the way, and..." Mine Manager Zhang suddenly remembered something and said, "I wanted to ask him to go to the quarry to tell everyone a few words!"

"Did you invite him to speak at the quarry?" Thinking of the dedicated podium and loudspeaker in the quarry, Yang Dongsheng broke into a cold sweat immediately.

If this was misunderstood, Yang Dongsheng wouldn't be able to clear it up by jumping into the Yellow River. If he had known this, Yang Dongsheng should have fired this idiot the first time he went to the quarry.

Yang Dongsheng grabbed mine manager Zhang's collar, "What did the leader say, and what's the reaction?"

Mine manager Zhang looked at Yang Dongsheng in fear, "He didn't say anything! His attendant said he had something to do next, and then left."

"Gone? Gone!" Yang Dongsheng imagined the scene at that time in his mind.

"Mr. Yang, did I say something wrong?"

"You go back now, dismantle that podium, and throw the loudspeaker as far as you can, or I'll throw you out!"

"Okay! I'll demolish it when I get back!" Mine Manager Zhang nodded repeatedly.

Yang Dongsheng looked at the panic-stricken Mine Manager Zhang, patted him on the shoulder, and straightened his collar, "It's best that what happened is like what you said, otherwise if I get unlucky, I will first Choke you to death, and then ask someone to tie you up with an iron chain and throw you into the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to feed the fish! I promise, your family will never find you again in this lifetime. Do you understand?"

"Yeah!" Mine manager Zhang nodded hurriedly like a chicken pecking at rice.

"I said you've been muttering for a long time, do you want to buy it or not?" The old lion carving man put his hands on his hips, as if he had been waiting impatiently for a long time.

"The lion hasn't been sold yet?"

"Isn't this nonsense, otherwise why does he always bring you here?" The old man pointed at Mine Manager Zhang, "I said what's the matter with you, you just brought people to see, but no one bought it!"

"This...how did you say it!" Mine manager Zhang shrank his neck as he watched Yang Dongsheng.

"Okay, okay! At worst, I'll sell it to you at a lower price, okay?"

"How much is cheap?"

The old man hesitated for a moment, finally gritted his teeth, stretched out his fingers and compared a number, "Is this a few lines?"

"Isn't this a bit expensive?" Yang Dongsheng looked at Mine Manager Zhang.

After the scare just now, Yang Dongsheng felt that he didn't have the guts to lie to himself with this old man.

Mine manager Zhang really didn't dare to lie to Yang Dongsheng, "Mr. Yang, generally a stone lion of this size is really cheap. But look at this carved lion, it has been carved with great effort, even the base is fully carved." The Eight Buddha Treasures are not ordinary high-end goods."

Yang Dongsheng took a closer look, it really is!

The lines of this stone lion are very delicate, especially the muscles on the lion's forearm, which even reminded Yang Dongsheng of the scene of working in the mine.

It's just... Yang Dongsheng fumbled in his pocket, as if he didn't bring enough money.

Yang Dongsheng stuffed all the money in his pocket to the old man, "I only have so much on me, so you can treat it as a deposit, okay? I'll pay you the rest after the carving is completed!"

"Mr. Yang, this, this..." Mine manager Zhang looked at the old man with his mouth open, and then at Yang Dongsheng, but he still didn't dare to speak.

As soon as Yang Dongsheng walked away, Mine Manager Zhang put his palms together and bowed in all directions, "Amitabha, God bless..."

Finally, Mine Manager Zhang looked at the old man and said in a tone that was about to cry, "Uncle! In the future, the price of your lions should be increased by 10 times, otherwise you will have to go to the Grand Canal to fish for me."

Only then did the old man close his mouth, carefully put the deposit into his pocket and patted it, "If you increase it by 10 times, it will increase by 10 times. What can't you do? My ancestors carved lions for the governor of Liangjiang. You Mr. Yang No matter how big it is, can it still be bigger than the governor of Liangjiang? Don't worry, I'll give him some processing and make sure it's worth the price he paid!"

Yang Dongsheng rushed back to Yangma Village, but instead of going home, he went straight to the village committee.

Yang Wu and Ma Fengshou were there, as well as several other village cadres, who were fishing to pass the time.

"Why is Dongsheng here?"

"Is there a "Guazhou Daily" in the village?"

"Yes!" Ma Fengshou handed Yang Dongsheng the newspaper in his hand.

Yang Dongsheng flipped through it hastily, but couldn't find what he wanted, "Are there any other issues?"

"Other issues? There are still some!" Yang Wuchong shouted alone, "Go, bring all the newspapers!"

The man went to the newspaper stand and brought a pile of newspapers.

Guazhou TV Station has not yet been established, so if you want to know the situation in the city, you can only rely on the "Guazhou Daily".

Yang Dongsheng searched one by one, but the photos published in the "Guazhou Daily" were either of the secretary and the mayor, or of the citizens whose deeds were published in the newspaper.

Finally, after flipping through a lot of newspapers, Yang Dongsheng saw what he was looking for on the front page of one of the issues - the main leaders of the municipal party committee inspected the Beicheng Power Plant and demanded to fully guarantee the power supply this winter.

Next to the secretary stood a man of about 40 years old.

"Who is this?" Yang Dongsheng pointed to the photo and asked Yang Wu.

"The secretary of our city!" Yang Wu said with a glance.

"What about the person next to the secretary?"

"This..." Yang Wu looked carefully, and then showed it to Ma Fengshou, "He seems to be the new Vice Mayor Li in our city."

"Yes, that's him! Not long ago, I read a speech he gave on the reform of state-owned enterprises." Ma Fengshou flipped through the newspaper, "Why can't I find it?"

"The new deputy mayor Li you are talking about is not the one with a great background?"
