Chapter 468 Gunshot
Zhong Xiaoai was convinced. "Okay, okay, Secretary Qi, stop singing about your hardship. A roadside stall is a roadside stall, and the guests should follow the host's wishes."
Qi Tongwei found a seat for Zhong Xiaoai and started to get busy. Soon, the table was filled with various snacks.
Zhong Xiaoai had tasted it before, and now she couldn't help but be amazed when she tasted this rich slogan again.
The color is attractive, the taste is spicy, and the sweet, spicy and fragrant flavors bloom in the mouth, giving the taste buds the ultimate enjoyment.
Zhong Xiaoai pointed at some snacks and said, "Comrade Tongwei, where did you get these delicacies? I've never seen them anywhere else."
Qi Tongwei said: "We started by collecting snacks from all over the place, and later we established a place to research snacks based on this. Whoever develops a unique delicacy will be rewarded with money.
After more than half a year, we have developed dozens of new snacks. I believe that in the near future, this place will become a nationally famous snack town, the holy land and source of Chinese snack culture."
Zhong Xiaoai nodded, "Well, there is a chance. Pairing snacks with tourist cities is really a good idea.
What are your thoughts on visiting Hanjiang Beishan City this time? I heard that place is now a quagmire. If you step into it, you may not be able to pull out for several years. After all, it is not suitable for tourism.
Upon hearing this, Qi Tongwei became excited and said sarcastically, "Oh, Director Zhong, so you knew about this. After all, we've been friends for so many years. Your father arranged this place for me, and you didn't say a few good words for me?"
Zhong Xiaoai tapped the edge of the bowl with her chopsticks. "Hey, hey, I'm just a small director, a deputy division-level cadre. How can I influence the will of a deputy political-level cadre? Even if I say something, they won't listen.
Besides, you, Secretary Qi, are well-known. When several provincial leaders heard it was you, they all clamored to get you. I couldn't open my mouth no matter how loud I was. So, if there's anyone to blame, it's only you. People can't be too outstanding, and their abilities shouldn't be too outstanding, otherwise they'll be targeted."
Qi Tongwei straightened his back unconsciously after being praised by Zhong Xiaoai. He felt a little proud. "So, these people are quite knowledgeable."
"I know what you're talking about. My dad is still promoting you to those political leaders."
"Really?" Qi Tongwei's mouth curled up unconsciously, "What did you say?"
"They said you are a rare cadre of our party and should be trained well and placed in a higher position." Zhong Xiaoai continued to flatter Qi Tongwei, praising him so much that he couldn't hold back his smile.
Zhong Xiaoai chuckled secretly, "That's why I wanted to find out what you think this time. You have to live up to my dad's hype. Don't look at yourself as a big and strong man. If you become a weakling in the past, you will be sitting on the bench."
"Just look at it. It's just Beishan City. Even if we can't develop it into something like Haizhou, at least we can revitalize it." Qi Tongwei was full of confidence.
Qi Tongwei has been thinking a lot these days and has a lot of ideas in his mind, but the specific situation can only be known after the on-site investigation.
He Anxia was right. He had resources, and if he made good use of them, his chances would be much greater than others.
"What's your plan?"
Qi Tongwei smiled mysteriously, "Buddha said, it cannot be explained."
"Okay, take your time. I was worried you'd be stressed out, so I wanted to introduce some friends to see if you needed anything. But since you're so confident, forget it."
"What friends? Tell me." Qi Tongwei asked curiously.
Zhong Xiaoai glanced at Qi Tongwei, raised her eyebrows, and continued eating.
Qi Tongwei was helpless and pushed the fried meatballs in front of him towards Zhong Xiaoai. "Director Zhong, please tell me. This is also a problem that your old Zhong has given me. You can't not save me."
"How can you talk like that?" Zhong Xiaoai rolled her eyes at Qi Tongwei.
"Tell me, tell me quickly."
Zhong Xiaoai stopped teasing Qi Tongwei and asked, "What do you want?"
Qi Tongwei was stunned. "In every aspect?"
Zhong Xiaoai said arrogantly, "You are doubting the ability of the daughter of a vice-political official."
Also.
She is the daughter of a powerful deputy-level leader, and her grandfather holds a higher position. From childhood to adulthood, there is probably no friend of low status among her friends. She has a say in all walks of life, provinces, and ministries.
"At the moment, there is only one general direction. I may need talents in mechanical fields, but I haven't conducted on-site inspections, so I'm not sure what kind of talents I need."
"Okay, just tell me when the time comes."
...
In the blink of an eye, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening. Jiangchang's nightlife gradually cooled down, with fewer and fewer pedestrians, and the busy snack stalls all pulled down their shutters.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, they packed up and prepared to go back.
"Bang!" Suddenly a gunshot broke the silence of the long night.
Qi Tongwei's hair stood on end, and several plainclothes officers quickly moved towards the two men.
"What's going on?" Qi Tongwei asked several plainclothes officers.
"I don't know where the shooting happened. Secretary Qi, Director Zhong, let's get in the car first." The plainclothes captain still prioritized the safety of the two leaders.
"I'm leaving with Director Zhong. You guys go check it out and make sure to evacuate the people."
"Yes!" The plainclothes captain didn't think much about it and trotted towards the gunshot with two teammates.
"Be careful." Qi Tongwei warned, and then escorted Zhong Xiaoai to the parking lot. At the same time, he did not forget to call Chen Xin, but the call was not connected.
He really wanted to go over and check the situation, but considering that if Zhong Xiaoai was injured here, it would cause an earthquake in the entire Handong officialdom, he had to give up the idea.
But that's fate. The more you try to avoid it, the more likely it is to happen.
Frightened by the gunshots, many civilians and Qi Tongwei retreated in the same direction.
The plainclothes officers revealed their identities and, while evacuating the crowd, went upstream with the police on duty in the direction of the gunshots. No one noticed that two suspicious men had mixed in with the crowd and passed by them, and they were also heading towards the parking lot.
Qi Tongwei arrived at the parking lot and was about to open the car door when he suddenly felt a little uneasy. The first time this body gave him this feeling was when he caught the thief during his school days.
The second time was when he was fighting with Sun Changbing.
Qi Tongwei reacted quickly and pulled Zhong Xiaoai down to squat.
"What..." Zhong Xiaoai was about to speak when Qi Tongwei covered her mouth.
"Shh! There's danger!" Qi Tongwei replied and quickly lay on the ground. He saw two figures approaching them rapidly.
The people who came were Lin Xiaoqiang and Yang Chun. According to the plan, they were hiding near the Public Security Bureau. After shooting Chen Xin, who was working overtime late, several times, they walked to the parking lot near the food street as planned, intending to steal a car there and escape again.
