"We have contacted the Pepinghe Power Plant."

In the mine manager's office, Pan Caishan said to Feng Xiaochen like this.

"How is the result?" Feng Xiaochen asked.

"The other party is very polite. He even invited Lao Yan and the others to have a meal and served several big carp from Pinghe." Pan Caishan said with a wry smile.

Feng Xiaochen knew the answer. In an idiom, the other party's reaction was "rejected ten times", which means that he was very moved, and then he refused. They were all large state-owned enterprises. Lengshui Mine sent a deputy mine manager to contact him. Naturally, the other party would not be too rude. A good meal would definitely be treated. But Pan Caishan emphasized that this good meal means that Lengshui Mine did not get any other benefits except for one meal. People are not close to you, so why should they help you solve the electricity usage indicators?

"Did they make any requests?" Feng Xiaochen asked again.

Pan Caishan sighed and said, "It would be great if I made a request. The problem is that they have no requirements. We are just dogs and hedgehogs and have no idea how to start."

"Then have our mine managers taken the initiative to analyze what difficulties they have?" Feng Xiaochen said.

Pan Caishan said: "We held two meetings, and everyone thought about it but couldn't stand it. Pinghe Power Plant is a large power plant. I wonder how many companies they are doing business are. They have solved all of their difficulties at once. How can we get the turn of a mine like ours to help."

When asking people to do things, they always have to pay a price. Pan Caishan is very clear about this. The leaders of the mine have made some tricks, such as sending some local products to the other party, recruiting several children from the power plant to find employment at the cold water mine, or when the power plant is about to build a dormitory building, the mine will send some building materials in the name of sponsorship. Such tricks are also useful for units in Yichuan County, such as schools, hospitals, power supply centers, etc., but for Pinghe Power Plant, it is just a bit drizzling, and even the corners of others' clothes cannot be wet.

But if you want to take action, it is not appropriate. The property of the mine belongs to the state. Spending 3,500 yuan can be considered reimbursed in the entertainment expenses. If you spend tens of thousands at once, it will be difficult to explain. Besides, if you really have to pay such a big price, is it necessary to continue to open a stone factory?

"So, we have no choice?" Feng Xiaochen asked.

Pan Caishan smiled and said, "It can't be said that there is no way. Now that you are here, we will see hope."

"Minister Pan, you are not kidding me. I am just a seconded cadre from the Metallurgical Bureau. You can't solve the problem that you can't come forward. What can I do?" Feng Xiaochen said half-truely.

Before coming to Linhe Province, he had also thought about Pinghe Power Plant, but he couldn't find any clues. He was also very clear that if there was no condition to exchange with the other party, it would be almost impossible to persuade the other party to transfer electricity to himself. Pinghe Power Plant does have a say in power distribution, but this right to say is not used for charity. If someone transfers tens of thousands of kilowatt-hours of electricity to you, you must exchange something from your hands, otherwise you will lose. And the most important thing is that once this precedent is set, everyone will come to you to make an opening in the future, do you agree or not?

So, what are the weaknesses of Pinghe Power Plant?

"We really don't know."

Facing the questions raised by Feng Xiaochen, Pan Caishan said distressedly:

"Because of this, when the Mine Party Committee held a meeting, everyone recommended you to negotiate with Pinghe Power Plant. Everyone thinks that your greatest ability is to make a name out of nothing and discover hope from places where you can't find hope. You see, we originally thought that the Metallurgical Bureau had no place to threaten us, but as soon as you made it happen, we were all staying."

"This... is purely coincidence, purely coincidence." Feng Xiaochen waved his hand and said. What Pan Caishan said was really not praise, but more like accusation.

Pan Caishan smiled and said, "Xiao Feng, don't feel psychologically stressed. We did have some opinions about you at the beginning of the last incident, but you gave us an idea and contacted overseas agents. They solved the employment problems of thousands of people at once, which was equivalent to solving the worries of hundreds of families. We thank you for not having enough time.

Last time you left in a hurry, our mine didn’t make any arrangements for you. This time I specially brought you over from Director Luo. The main purpose is to treat you well. Find the most beautiful girl in our mine and accompany you around. The scenery here is quite beautiful."

"This... let's make a long-term plan." Feng Xiaochen felt a chill. Old Pan really invested in it. Even the most beautiful girl in the mine was left. When he was walking around, wouldn't this girl have to warm her bed, right?

"If you have time, go and check out the matters of the power plant, and if you really don't have time, put it on first. We have been waiting for so many days, and it's not bad to wait for a few more days. The key is to have a good rest first and have fun. Young people always like to play." Pan Caishan said it very righteously, but the subtext is very clear: you can put the matters of the power plant first, but you have to go after it is put. The so-called hospitality, tourism, and bed warming are all based on the fact that you can help us solve this difficulty.

Feng Xiaochen was helpless, and nodded and said, "Let's do this, Mine Manager Pan, first find someone to introduce me to the situation of Pinghe Power Plant. I will go to see it tomorrow and find someone at the mine to accompany me. As for whether I can find any opportunity, I can't guarantee it."

"You'll go tomorrow? Do you really don't have to rest for two more days? The scenery of Xiaogushan Forest Farm here is very good." Pan Caishan is still working hard.

Feng Xiaochen shook his head firmly: "No hurry, let's arrange the power plant first."

"Well, it's okay. After finishing things, it's easier to get along and have a little more fun." Pan Caishan seemed to be convinced by Feng Xiaochen, but his subsequent words almost made Feng Xiaochen collapse: "I have already arranged it. Let our mine security director Song Weidong accompany you tomorrow, and the car has been sent."

Damn, didn’t you just tell me to go to Xiaogushan Forest Farm? Now I’ve said that it’s already arranged. Can people still have a minimum trust? Feng Xiaochen muttered in his heart, but there was a smile on his face. He thought for a while and said, “Is this good? Director Song goes with me, but he doesn’t come forward first, so as not to arouse the vigilance of the power plant. Find someone else to accompany me from the mine, and I pretend to be on a trip, and then check the situation of the power plant by the way, and then decide on the next action. What does Mining Manager Pan think?”

"Just according to yours, tell me who should accompany you? Xiao Peng, the broadcaster in the mine, just graduated from the Arts School, was assigned to him. He is beautiful and speaks nicely. How about letting her accompany you?" Pan Caishan began to use the beauty offensive again.

Feng Xiaochen quickly stopped him and said, "Minister Pan, you are wrong. I don't mean that. Otherwise, let Ning Mo accompany me, I'm more in love with him. Also, he is big, if the power plant doesn't like us and wants to let the dog chase us, he can still stop him."

"Puff!" Pan Caishan almost sprayed a mouthful of tea on the table. Feng Xiaochen was too damaged and he didn't have a straight face when he spoke. But it was only such a person who could find a unique way and find a solution. He responded without thinking: "No problem, I'll let the fat man go with you. However, if he goes, he has to change to a bigger car..."

Of course, changing to larger cars is just a joke. There are many large trucks in cold water mines, and there are dozens of transport vehicles with a load capacity of 30 to 50 tons. But this is not used to transport fat people like Ning Mo. They cannot take a load truck to Pinghe Power Plant.

The next morning, Song Weidong brought a jeep to the downstairs of the guesthouse and picked up Feng Xiaochen and set off. Song Weidong took the seat of the co-pilot, which was the chief seat back then. He was always the most important person who was qualified to take the seat. Feng Xiaochen opened the rear door and found that Ning Mo was already sitting inside, and one person occupied nearly two people's seats. Seeing Feng Xiaochen, Ning Mo was quite intimate. After greeting Feng Xiaochen, he started to take out cigarettes, and the one he took out was the front door.

"Brother, smoking, this is what I earned myself. I don't want to give it to anyone else. Brother, you have to smoke this cigarette. Without you, I'm still squatting at home." Ning Mo said carelessly while stuffing cigarettes into Feng Xiaochen's hand.

Song Weidong ordered the driver to drive, then turned around and said to Ning Mo: "Fatty, I secretly bought cigarettes on my back again. Are you afraid that I will go back and sue you?"

"Old Song, you are not a friend enough now. Come on, come on, you can smoke one too. Can I light it for you?" Ning Mo smiled and handed Song Weidong a cigarette, took out a metal lighter to help him fire.

Song Weidong is as old as Ning Mo's father. In terms of seniority, Ning Mo has to call him uncle, but Ning Mo just calls him Lao Song, which makes him helpless. Half-grown children like Ning Mo always feel that they have grown up and can be on par with their elders. Except for not daring to be brothers and brothers with their parents, they treat all other staff members in the mine as equal colleagues.

Song Weidong also knew the bad habits of these young people. His own son did not do better than Ning Mo in this regard, so he had no reason to scold Ning Mo. He took a sip of the cigarette that Ning Mo gave him, and then said to Feng Xiaochen: "Xiao Feng, Mine Manager Pan has explained that we will go to Pinghe this time and everything will be followed by your arrangements. What do you need me to do, just speak directly, and I will follow the command of everything."

Feng Xiaochen smiled and said, "Director Song said this, I am so frightened. How dare I command you? This time we went to Pinghe, mainly to understand the basic situation of the power plant and see if there is any opportunity to seize. After arriving there, don't make a statement, just let Fatty and I go and explore the way."

"Okay, I'll do what you said." Song Weidong agreed readily.
