467: Time will give us the best answer.

Hearing Li Yuhang's heartfelt words, Lin Zifeng smiled and said, "There's no need for thanks. Those were part of my job responsibilities; it was what I should have done, not something I did for you, Secretary Yuhang."

"That you are becoming more supported by the Cadres and the masses in Heping Town is the result of your own continuous hard work."

"Since you have spoken your feelings without reservation just now, let me give you a brief analysis as well!"

"You and I both know that the masses are the foundation of the country. The main job of us grassroots Cadres is to serve the masses well, develop the region, let the masses live a good life, and make the policies of our Party more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people."

"Therefore, as long as we keep the common people in our hearts and sincerely contribute to the happy lives of the masses, even if there are some slips or flaws in our work, we will still receive the sincere support of the common people."

"People often say, 'plan before you act,' but when facing historical opportunities, as a decision-maker, sometimes you cannot be overly cautious. You must be bold in innovation in your work, and when it is time to make a decision, you must have the determination to bear all the consequences."

"Of course, you must fully utilize the power of collective wisdom and unite the members of the leadership team. As long as the thinking is unified and everyone is pulling in the same direction, there is no work that cannot be done."

Taking this opportunity, Lin Zifeng stepped into the role of Municipal Party Secretary and began doing ideological work for Li Yuhang.

Li Yuhang nodded and said, "Secretary, in the more than half a year since I came to work in our Yushu City, my thinking has undergone a subversive change."

"I won't hide it from you, Secretary. When I was transferred from the Personnel Division of the Provincial Party Committee General Office to work in Yushu City, I still had certain thoughts and utilitarian motives deep down."

"At the time, I thought that I would accumulate some grassroots work experience in Yushu City, enrich my resume, and lay a solid foundation for future promotions."

"I thought that after working in Yushu City for one or two years, I would be like those who people say are just 'gilding' their resumes before transferring away."

"But I have completely dispelled this thought now. I feel that my work is very fulfilling and very meaningful."

"Seeing Yushu City and Heping Town continuously developing in a good direction, and seeing the heartfelt smiles of the people within my jurisdiction, I am also filled with a sense of accomplishment."

"So, my thought now is that I want to work well in Yushu City for three to five years. I don't plan on transferring away from Yushu City in the short term; this is where I can better exert my abilities."

Seeing the determined look in Li Yuhang's eyes, Lin Zifeng nodded with a smile and spoke again, "Secretary Yuhang, it is definitely a good thing that you have had such a change in thinking."

"Years from now, when you look back at the decision you made today, you will definitely not regret it."

"Let's put this matter aside for now. Time will give both you and me the best answer. Since you are here today, let's study the matter of the high-speed railway station together!"

Li Yuhang nodded and said, "Secretary, this is how we in Heping Town have planned the high-speed railway station."

Seeing Lin Zifeng listening attentively, Li Yuhang continued, "Following the route of the jingnan high-speed railway line, we have asked professionals to carefully plan it."

"We will build the high-speed railway station between the location of the Town Government and the Yingjianzui Scenic Area, about five kilometers from both places."

"We are going to build a multi-functional high-speed railway station, one that integrates catering and various services. In addition, there are three capable businesspeople who want to invest in hotels near the high-speed railway station, and our staff is currently in negotiations with them."

Hearing Li Yuhang's report, Lin Zifeng nodded with satisfaction and said, "After the high-speed railway opens, the station will definitely become a hub for the flow of people."

"The flow of people is money. In addition to the various display stands inside the high-speed railway station, you must also plan an area outside the station so that the local common people have a place to do small business and make money."

"Furthermore, with the increase in foot traffic, places with many people are also prone to breeding illegal and criminal activities."

"Therefore, the Heping Town Public Security Sub-bureau must establish a police station at the high-speed railway station. While ensuring the safety of travelers, you must nip illegal and criminal activities in the bud."

"In short, your Heping Town Party Committee leadership team must consider all relevant matters in advance and deploy preparatory work ahead of time."

"Please rest assured, Secretary. Our Heping Town Party Committee leadership team will definitely implement your instructions without any compromise."

Li Yuhang said with a firm tone.

The two discussed work for over an hour. When Li Yuhang was about to leave, he spoke again, "Secretary, I already notified my wife Meixin at noon, asking her to cook a home-cooked meal tonight. I want to invite you for a few drinks tonight to celebrate in a low-key manner."

"You cannot refuse me! Otherwise, if Meixin has prepared the meal and I fail to invite you, I'll be laughed at when I get home."

"Besides, I also had Meixin invite your wife; the three of you can come over together."

"Since you've put it this way, I have no choice but to accept your kind offer."

"If I refused Secretary Yuhang, I would end up a lonely man when I got home!" Lin Zifeng joked.

"Secretary, by saying that, are you indirectly saying that my wife is good at playing the social game?" Li Yuhang also joked.

It was only because Li Yuhang and Lin Zifeng had a relationship as classmates from the Party School and their private relationship was excellent that Li Yuhang dared to make such a joke with Lin Zifeng; other Standing Committee Members of the Municipal Party Committee would not dare to do so.

"Get out of here! Go do what you need to do!"

Lin Zifeng patted Li Yuhang on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Li Yuhang left Lin Zifeng's Office with a smile. After Lin Zifeng saw Li Yuhang off, he had just sat down and picked up study materials when his phone rang.

Seeing it was a call from Chen Yuxi, Lin Zifeng answered the phone with a smile.

"Honey, Yuhang just left my Office. Did Meixin call to invite you to dinner at their house tonight?"

"Yeah, I was just calling to tell you about that. Ningning and I will wait for you at home after work, and we'll go over together with the child."

"Meixin told me she specifically prepared the Coca-Cola chicken wings that Ningning loves."

Chen Yuxi's voice came through the receiver.

"Alright, honey, I'll listen to you."

Lin Zifeng had just hung up the phone when Wang Zhongyu knocked on the door and walked in again, "Secretary, Mayor Zhang is here to report on work."

"Let Mayor Zhang in!" Lin Zifeng said, looking up.

Just like that, Lin Zifeng started working again.

By the time Lin Zifeng sent Zhang Linhua out of the Office, the sun was already setting, and it was almost time to get off work.

Wang Zhongyu entered the Office at the right time, tidied up briefly, and walked out of the Office with Lin Zifeng.

After driving back home, before Lin Zifeng could go upstairs, Chen Yuxi and her daughter walked out of the unit entrance. Wang Zhongyu and Li Qiang left only after greeting Chen Yuxi and her daughter.

The family of three got into their car, and Lin Zifeng drove out of the Residential Community, heading toward the Residential Community where Li Yuhang and his wife lived.

"Mom, Dad, since we are going to Auntie Yu's house as guests, shouldn't we bring some gifts for Auntie Yu?"

"I really like Auntie Yu. Last time Auntie Yu came to our house, she even brought me durian!"

"Auntie Yu likes eating durian just like Mom and me. Let's buy a durian for Auntie Yu too!"

Hearing Lin Yining speak so articulately, the couple looked at each other and smiled. Chen Yuxi smiled and said, "Alright, we'll listen to Ningning. We'll have Dad stop the car at a fruit shop in a moment, and we'll buy a durian for Auntie Meixin."

Hearing what Chen Yuxi said, Lin Zifeng drove toward the fruit shop not far away.
