Chapter 190: I Lost My Wallet

Without immediately refuting him, Zhou Youwei knew that Han Songlin must have his reasons. 'The entire music pool. There is very little that can now represent the historical heritage of the music pool. The South Tower and the North Tower, and then there is just the old street left. They are all witnesses to the history of the music pool.'

'You can build new houses anywhere you like, there's plenty of space. But if you demolish the old street, there won't be any left!'

Zhou Youwei pondered for a while. The county government had not been short of people saying such things.

There had never been a shortage of people with foresight or ideals in Hua County.

So when the music pool was going to renovate the old street, someone had raised the issue.

But for the people in charge, did history matter?

'In fact, there are advantages to not demolishing the old street and finding a new place to build houses, which can expand the urban area of the county town.'

Zhou Youwei looked through Han Songlin like he could see right through him: 'Just tell me what to do!'

'Okay, I'll be direct! We'll preserve the old street and then renovate it. Move the residents and everything else, build houses on the edge of town, and return them to the residents. Then we can use the old street as a new commercial and cultural street in Yuechi. In the future, I think other cities will definitely demolish all these old streets with wooden buildings. Things are rare and precious, and if we have them in Yuechi, will that attract other people to come to Yuechi for tourism and fun?

'With the flow of people, there will be consumption.'

'Exactly, it may take ten years to see the effect of creating this old street tourism.'

Han Songlin's last words were almost a direct challenge: if you, Zhou Youwei, do this, you may not be able to enjoy the future development dividends of Yuechi Old Street.

After saying this, Han Songlin crossed his arms and looked at Zhou Youwei with a smile on his face, waiting to see what choice he would make.

Zhou Youwei narrowed his eyes slightly and saw Han Songlin's actions, a smile emerging at the corner of his mouth: 'Don't you think that we officials only know how to make political achievements in order to get promoted.'

After a pause, Zhou Youwei continued, 'You're right about this. I'll discuss it with the secretary.'

As a politician, you have to leave something behind for the local people.

After leaving office, if the people can remember you fondly, then it was not in vain.

If the old street really develops as Han Songlin had predicted, then in the future, when Yue Chi talks about the old street, he will definitely remember himself.

The people are forgetful, but they are also the group with the best memory.

Han Songlin didn't say anything, and he was really surprised that he had so easily convinced Zhou Youwei.

But, this is a good thing!

'The county is planning to rebuild the memorial hall. Mr. Han, would you like to make a generous donation?'

Han Songlin: 'No problem, we naturally have to contribute to the commemoration of revolutionary martyrs!'

Thinking about what the future memorial hall would look like, it would become a famous red memorial hall in the country.

But just the memorial hall alone, Han Songlin felt, was not enough.

The educational significance is strong, but this significance cannot be put into practice.

'Zhou County, I have a suggestion!'

Another suggestion?

Zhou Youwei raised his eyebrows, 'It's just that I have a good personality.'

'Speak!'

'I definitely support the construction of the memorial hall. However, I feel that although the memorial hall has educational significance, we cannot just let the public go in and have a look and then forget about it!'

Humans are creatures who are moved for a moment and then forget.

'I wonder where the county government plans to build the memorial hall?' Han Songlin knew where it was going to be built, but he asked deliberately.

'Shuyuanpo!'

Shuyuanpo was once the location of Yuechi County School, and the slope overlooked the entire county. The slope was extremely important from a military point of view.

Therefore, it was converted into a garrison camp in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, and cannons were set up on it.

Even now, bronze cannons can still be seen on it.

'Zhou County, I think, should combine the memorial hall with the park and the library. Let Shuyuanpo not only become a red education base, but also a leisure place where the citizens of Yuechi are willing to go, and even more, a place for students in Yuechi to study.'

Zhou Youwei was a little stunned: 'All three in one?'

'Isn't it good? The red needs to be passed on, so what could be better than children learning and reading there?'

Zhou Youwei couldn't help laughing out loud, and pointed at Han Songlin, saying, 'Hey, compared to you, our level is really a bit low!'

Zhou Youwei was convinced by Han Songlin, and this one thing has gained three benefits.

A good thing, a great good thing!

Just talking about the memorial hall, if it is built in his own hands, Zhou Youwei knows that he will be promoted soon.

A solid achievement.

Han Songlin and Zhou Youwei talked for quite a while before bidding their farewells.

The advice he had given was actually quite good for the development of Yuechi.

It didn't make sense to simply build a memorial hall; normally, there wouldn't even be a single person inside, which was not a good thing.

It would be much better to make use of the memorial hall to generate benefits.

Walking along the streets of Yuechi, Han Songlin noticed that Yuechi was now much better than it had been two years ago.

It has been almost two years since the rebirth of this place.

Two years is a very short period of time in life; it can pass by quietly while you are distracted.

Standing on the street, he felt a little sad and a little dazed.

Bang!

Han Songlin felt like he had been bumped, but it wasn't a heavy bump.

'Sorry!'

'It's okay!'

Han Songlin smiled. It was really rare to see someone so polite these days.

He stared at the man for a moment, and although he felt that the man was a bit shifty, he was actually quite nice. Han Songlin withdrew his gaze, shook his head slightly, and was about to continue walking.

Then, Han Songlin suddenly thought of something, and subconsciously felt in his trouser pocket.

His wallet was gone.

Did he leave it in Zhou Youwei's office?

No!

Damn it!

Han Songlin cursed under his breath, quickly turned around, and saw that the kid had already walked more than 20 metres away.

The man also noticed Han Songlin, and when he saw Han Songlin turn around, he just took off running.

I've really had bad luck my whole life. I've never been robbed before, and today is my lucky day.

Han Songlin didn't hesitate, and chased after him directly.

How dare you mess with the tiger's head! Damn it, you're like a lantern in a toilet, you don't know how to write the word 'death'.

Although he was wearing leather shoes, which were not suitable for running, Han Songlin kept a close eye on the boy and the distance between them did not widen.

This kid, he must have trained for this, right?

He's running so fast!

Han Songlin also exercised regularly, but he basically did not run at such a high intensity.

He just did push-ups, plank push-ups and stuff like that.

It was simple, didn't take up much space, and could be done anytime, anywhere.

Seeing the boy run into an alley, Han Songlin followed without hesitation.

Then he saw that the kid actually stopped running.

Because, in the alley, a few more people came out, playing with pocket knives in their hands.

Han Songlin gave a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, surveying his surroundings with his eyes. The middle of the road was relatively clean, with black water stains around the edges, and even rats could be seen, quite a few of them.

They weren't afraid of people at all, which was a bit disgusting.

But it had to be said that these people had found a good place.

In this day and age, there were no surveillance cameras or anything like that on the streets.

So in an alley like this, you should never go in alone.

In fact, even in the 21st century, you shouldn't go anywhere without surveillance cameras.

Compared to other countries, the security in China is indeed very good, but that doesn't mean there aren't any problems.

'Hey, he's a good-looking guy! What's up, handsome? Do you need help?'

If you can avoid confrontation, do so.

These people aren't completely stupid, and they can't withstand the power of Iron Fist.

So, it's best to just drive them away.

In fact, they had done the same thing before, and the people who chased after them could only say that they were unlucky when they saw that they were outnumbered.

When they left, they would at most threaten to make things difficult for themselves to make themselves feel better.
