92: Chapter 92 Construction Site Inspection
Li Dakang solemnly accepted the check, his eyes flashing with determination and gratitude: "Mr. Tie, your generosity is a tremendous boost to the education cause in Guantian Township."
"On behalf of the elders and children of Guantian Township, I extend my most sincere thanks to you."
After speaking, he bowed deeply and continued: "Please rest assured, we will use every cent of this money for education in Guantian Township without any misappropriation, and the expenditure details will be open and transparent for everyone to see."
Tie Qichang nodded with satisfaction; he knew he had found the right person, someone worthy of trust, to entrust with these charitable funds.
As soon as the donation ceremony ended, the project signing ceremony followed.
Executive Vice Governor Lu Xianan and Municipal Party Secretary Guo Zhenhua delivered passionate speeches on behalf of the provincial and Municipal Government, respectively.
Then, amidst warm applause, Li Dakang and Tie Qichang's granddaughter, Tie Min, jointly signed a cooperation agreement with a total investment of 50 million yuan.
This agreement not only marked an unprecedented development opportunity for Guantian Township but also heralded a solid step forward in economic development for all of Anjiang County.
The reporters on site frantically clicked their shutters, recording this historic moment!
As a witness, Executive Vice Governor Lu Xianan solemnly signed his name on the agreement, highly affirming and looking forward to the cooperation between the two parties: "Today's signing is an important milestone in the development history of Guantian Township and even Anjiang County."
"I believe that with our joint efforts, this project will surely be a complete success, bringing tangible benefits to the local people."
As Executive Vice Governor Lu Xianan finished speaking, the venue erupted in prolonged applause once again.
With the departure of Executive Vice Governor Lu Xianan and his entourage, Guantian Township embarked on a new starting point for development!
...
In the days that followed, Guantian Township radiated unprecedented vitality and energy.
The roar of bulldozers, the operation of concrete mixers, and the chants of workers intertwined into a stirring symphony of construction.
The entire Guantian Township seemed to have been injected with a new soul; scenes of bustling construction were everywhere, and even the air was filled with the scent of struggle.
Li Dakang knew clearly that the signing was only the first step of a long march; the real test lay in the follow-up, and follow-through and management were the top priorities.
To this end, he detailed the project promotion plan, clarified individual responsibilities, ensured that every link had a dedicated person in charge, and that every potential problem could be discovered and solved in time.
To ensure that the children of Guantian Township could move into spacious and bright new schools when the autumn semester started, Gao Qiqiang spared no cost, hiring a large amount of labor and renting sufficient equipment. The renovation projects for the thirteen schools were rolled out simultaneously, creating a spectacular scene.
Li Dakang's emphasis on school renovation was no less than Tie Qichang's 50 million yuan investment; in his heart, this sense of responsibility and mission was even heavier.
Therefore, he went to the construction sites of each school every few days to personally check the progress and understand the situation.
This day, Li Dakang planned to go to the Bean Products Factory in Zhengjia Village and stop by the school construction site on the way.
Thanks to the improved road conditions in Guantian Township, even where there were no concrete roads, the roadbeds were much flatter, so at least driving out was not a problem.
Li Dakang pondered to himself that once the township's finances eased, he would immediately launch the "Village-to-Village Connectivity Project," so that the roads would be smoother and it would be more convenient for the people to travel.
But as the vehicle approached the construction site, the road conditions suddenly became rugged, caused by the frequent coming and going of large trucks transporting construction materials.
Driving on such a road, the car felt like a small boat in the ocean, bumping violently.
When they slowly arrived at the Qingshan Primary School construction site, workers were busy working nearby.
Su Wu parked the car steadily on an open space, and Li Dakang and Zheng Shijun got out of the car together and walked toward the construction area.
To ensure the quality of the project, Gao Qiqiang had almost lived on the construction site since the first day of construction at each school, returning to the county town only in special circumstances. Only in this way could he live up to Li Dakang's trust and expectations.
With thirteen schools under construction at the same time, he had to rush between various construction sites, and he happened to be at the Qingshan Primary School construction site this day.
He was seen wearing a hard hat, clutching a briefcase, followed by several subordinates, patrolling back and forth on the construction site.
At this time, a tall and elegant young woman behind him whispered a reminder: "Mr. Gao, it seems that Li Dakang has arrived."
This woman was a new secretary hired by Gao Qiqiang, a college student responsible for assisting in handling the daily affairs of Qiangsheng Group. After all, Gao Qiqiang and his subordinates were mostly not highly educated and lacked professional administrative talent.
Gao Qiqiang turned his head upon hearing this, and sure enough, he saw Li Dakang coming this way. A bright smile immediately bloomed on his face as he led his people to greet him: "Welcome, Li Dakang, for inspecting the work. The leader has worked hard!"
"Boss Gao is here too? I was just passing by and stopped to take a look."
Li Dakang responded with a smile, inadvertently glancing at the eye contact between Gao Qiqiang and the female secretary, guessing to himself that the two might have feelings for each other, but this was Gao Qiqiang's private matter, and he would not interfere too much.
After all, Gao Qiqiang was a business owner, not a government official, and had the right to choose his own life and feelings.
"Li Dakang, the opportunity is rare today. I will make arrangements at noon. Thank you for your care for me and Qiangsheng Group?" Gao Qiqiang seized the opportunity to extend an invitation.
He knew that the dinner table was the easiest way to close the distance; sometimes a glass of wine or a red envelope could make strangers close.
