Chapter 675: Chapter 675
Originally, Zhao Han had arranged a three-day vacation for herself at work. Due to her intervention, the major study activity at work was postponed for three days.
This was a sort of extreme vacation planning since she still had 15 days of annual leave left.
However, a deputy director from her office called. This deputy was in charge of the Southern District Cultural and Tourism Bureau office and was responsible for external communications.
The deputy told Director Zhao that the city's Cultural and Tourism Bureau had sent a notice stating that tomorrow, a deputy from the Tiandu National Culture and Tourism General Administration would come down to conduct research, along with the head of the provincial Cultural and Tourism Bureau. They were expected to arrive in Yangzhou around 2 pm.
Since the Southern District of Yangzhou had become a model area due to its booming tourist activity during the summer vacation wave, it had taken the lead in publicity efforts.
The city's requirement was that the deputy district mayor in charge and the district Cultural and Tourism Bureau must respond actively and organize groups to welcome the research activity of the higher-level leaders in the system. They had to be thorough and meticulous, leaving no room for error. After this research concluded, significant funds from both the national and provincial governments were expected, which would be a substantial boost for tourism in the Southern District.
With such important official duties, could Zhao Han still afford to take her annual leave and play in Shennong Valley?
She showed a face full of gloom and distress, which also confused Liu Zhizhong and Lu Yumei.
Work was often about formalities, about receiving and seeing off, about virtual duties; but cultural and tourism funding was tangible, it was real!
Liu Zhizhong quickly recovered and seriously said, "Director Zhao, you have a long road ahead! It was thought that working in the Cultural and Tourism Bureau was a laid-back job, but now it seems that isn't entirely the case."
Lu Yumei said, "Exactly! The large-scale consumer stimulus can't be triggered any longer, real estate and automobiles are saturated; and the stock market, forget it, it's all red every day, who can stand it? Now, hehe, we can only explore options in cultural and tourism consumption."
Liu Zhizhong nodded, "Yes, Mrs. Lu is absolutely right. Then we can't just sit around, let's go home. Everything depends on Little Sister Han's work, we need to prioritize! There will be other opportunities to relax."
But Zhao Han said, "It's okay, Brother Zhizhong, I'll go back alone! Caught in this critical period, there's no other way. I just divorced Zhang Family, so I shouldn't be so willful. Mom has been mentioning Shennong Valley for a long time, always talking about it, but never managed to visit. You should stay here and have a good time with her! Just drop me off..."
She thought for a moment, then continued, "Just drop me off at the county town train station. I can take the train back in time."
Liu Zhizhong earnestly said, "How could that be okay? You, a young lady traveling alone by train, it's too unsafe. Such a beautiful girl by herself could be troublesome!"
Hearing this, Zhao Han felt a sweet warmth inside, yet laughed and said, "What young lady? I'm a divorced young woman now!"
"Enough joking. Wait a second, let me see if I can get a helicopter over here to pick you up and take you back to Yangzhou. There's a helipad on top of your Cultural and Tourism Bureau building, right?" Follow current novᴇls on novel※fire.net
Zhao Han cursed, but her heart felt a warm delight, cherishing the privilege of being so pampered by a man. This was a treatment she could never enjoy with Zhang Hongyang, it had to be the capable Liu Zhizhong!
Lu Yumei's face was also full of surprise, staring blankly at her son-in-law.
Well, the man really could make things happen, even calling a helicopter?
Instinctively, Lu Yumei said, "Liu Zhizhong, don't tell me you've made your money and even bought a private helicopter? Are you being high-profile now?"
