Facing the reprimand, Liao Ruoji remained unfazed and instead asked back.
"Chen Bin, as the Vice-Mayor, paid out of his pocket to co here and learn for the agricultural developnt of Dragon Mountain County. Do you think you are more enlightened than him?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Youcai was montarily stunned.
He looked at Chen Bin with disbelief in his eyes.
"Young man, you... you are the Vice-Mayor?"
Chen Bin nodded and chose to tell the truth.
"I was previously the Party Secretary of Qinghe Town, then I was transferred to the county to serve as Vice-Mayor, mainly focused on agriculture."
Liao Ruoji stared directly at Lu Youcai and continued the conversation.
"Do you know why he was able to work at the county office at such a young age? Because Chen Bin cares about the people and is willing to serve the public..."
Then, Liao Ruoji recounted all of Chen Bin’s achievents.
Chen Bin only now realized how attentive Liao Ruoji was to his matters.
Lu Youcai looked at Chen Bin and hurriedly asked, "You’ve done so much good, why didn’t you tell sooner?"
Chen Bin replied with a smile, "Those are past matters; no need to ntion them."
Grasping Chen Bin’s hand tightly, Lu Youcai was extrely excited.
"I’ve lived most of my life and have never seen such a high-ranking official like a Vice-Mayor. I never expected you would co all the way to this poor mountainous area for the people. I’m willing to teach you that vegetable-growing technique!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Bin was very pleased.
He quickly responded, "Uncle, it won’t be long before I prove how right your decision was today!"
After dinner, Chen Bin took Liao Ruoji for a walk around the village.
Seeing no one around, he said seriously to the latter, "Thank you so much for earlier; otherwise, I might have had to make a few more trips."
Liao Ruoji waved it off, "No need to thank ; I just told the truth about what you had done."
The mountain roads were rugged, and before they knew it, they were holding hands.
Even though Liao Ruoji felt very shy, she didn’t resist.
After resting for the night, Chen Bin returned to Dragon Mountain County the next day.
He called all the top officials of the towns to the county for a eting.
When everyone learned that Chen Bin planned to develop thousands of acres of greenhouses, there was almost unanimous opposition.
If it succeeded, it would be fine, but if it failed, no one dared to take on that responsibility.
Seeing that no one supported his work, Chen Bin was quite annoyed.
But no matter how angry he was, developing off-season vegetable greenhouses had to be done, and done well!
Taking a deep breath, Chen Bin asked sternly.
"Since everyone is unwilling to go all-in, let’s set up a few pilot areas. Which town is willing to take the lead?"
Everyone kept their heads down, not daring to look at Chen Bin.
Just when the atmosphere reached a stalemate, Yao Pang suddenly spoke up.
"We at Shiqiao Town are willing to take the lead!"
Hearing this, Chen Bin quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
If truly no one was willing, he would have to ask Ye Hong to order it to be done forcefully.
But doing so would an his dignity as Vice-Mayor would be severely undermined.
Showing a satisfied smile to Yao Pang, Chen Bin then asked.
"Who else is willing to pilot?"
Wei Kai raised his hand, "We at Qinghe Town can do it too!"
Taking a deep breath, Chen Bin felt deeply moved.
At critical monts, you still have to rely on your own people.
After deciding on the pilot areas, after investigating and discussing, it was finally decided to set up twenty greenhouses in the two towns.
For this, Chen Bin personally went to Shiqiao Town and Qinghe Town to promise the local farrs.
Once the off-season vegetable greenhouses were successful, the profits would belong to them.
If there were losses, they would be compensated according to the county’s average inco per acre.
Chen Bin had a good reputation, so everyone was willing to trust him.
When building the greenhouses according to the secrets obtained from Lu Youcai, Chen Bin was often directly involved.
He completely transford from an amateur to a professional.
In September, Chen Bin directly beca a mber of the County Committee Standing Committee.
The standing committee expanded from the original eleven mbers to the current twelve mbers.
Moreover, under Chen Bin’s arrangents, Ding Zi was transferred to the county to work as the Director of the County Agriculture Bureau.
In addition, Jin Daqiang, whose surgery was successful, happily remarried Ding Zi.
The three were very satisfied with this outco.
After all, for Ding Zi, she was getting older, and her parents urged her to marry every day.
Remarrying her forr husband, who doted on her endlessly, while maintaining her relationship with Chen Bin, it was simply a win-win situation.
During the National Day holiday, Liao Ruoli ca to Tianhai.
Liao Ruoji contacted Chen Bin, and the two went to pick her up together.
There was no denying that Chen Bin and Liao Ruoli were natural adversaries.
Even after not seeing each other for a long ti, they could still squabble when they t.
Watching the two of them bicker, Liao Ruoji covered her mouth and chuckled, finding it very amusing.
On the way back to the city, Liao Ruoli grabbed Liao Ruoji’s hand and shook it.
"Sis, I’ve co all this way to see you, you have to cook today!"
Although they were sisters, their culinary talents were worlds apart.
No matter what dish, Liao Ruoji could almost replicate it after seeing it once.
Liao Ruoli, on the other hand, almost burned down the kitchen every ti.
And since they hadn’t seen each other for months, Liao Ruoli greatly missed Liao Ruoji’s cooking.
"Okay, I’ll cook for you, you little glutton."
Saying this, Liao Ruoji glanced at Chen Bin, who was driving.
"Why don’t you co over to my place for a al too?"
Chen Bin smiled and nodded, "Sure, I’d be delighted."
Seeing this, Liao Ruoli imdiately beca displeased.
"Sis, you’re cooking for , why does he get to eat?"
Liao Ruoji, worried Chen Bin might get mad, quickly replied.
"Last ti the school assigned an apartnt, and Chen Bin helped move. I haven’t properly thanked him yet, so why not treat him to a al?"
"What? You let him visit your place?"
Liao Ruoli was first taken aback, then smiled mischievously.
"Looks like your relationship with him isn’t ordinary!"
Liao Ruoji rolled her eyes and replied irritably.
"It was just moving, what’s so special about that? Stop overthinking stuff, okay?"
After thinking it over, Liao Ruoli nodded seriously.
"True, after all, you’re my sister, how could you have poor taste?"
After the three of them went to the market and bought groceries, Liao Ruoji started busying herself in the kitchen.
Chen Bin was about to go help, but Liao Ruoli shouted she wanted so small cakes, so he went out to get them.
With the main door shut, Liao Ruoli imdiately stepped into the kitchen and asked the busy Liao Ruoji.
"Sis, tell honestly, did you co to Tianhai for Chen Bin or for that person?"
