Today's inspection of the city square made him very happy.

This wasn't his first visit to City Square; today was his third. But neither of those two visits could compare to this one. The first time, when it had just been completed but not yet operational, it was still a construction site, with lots of finishing touches going on, so there wasn't much to see. The second time, it was for the grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony. It was bustling with activity, but Ai Gaofeng still felt uneasy.

For a business opening, it is natural and inevitable that it will be lively and prosperous.

The key is whether it can last.

If the excitement is only short-lived, then this huge investment will be wasted.

Today's inspection completely put Ai Gaofeng's mind at ease.

During the Spring Festival, all businesses are "shut down", but the city squares are bustling with people and tourists, which is very gratifying.

"Hongyi, your idea is good. This city square is the right one."

The father-in-law and son-in-law were drinking tea and chatting in the study.

Chen Aiping and Ai Xiaoyu took Ai Guyu to play in the living room.

The laughter continued.

Liu Hongyi smiled and said, "Uncle Ai, how are the other wholesale markets doing?"

"It's pretty good. It opened earlier than City Plaza and has already grown into a large business. Many businessmen from all over the province and even from neighboring provinces come here to buy goods."

"Starting from November last year, the railway bureau even added several trains for us, all of which are direct express trains connecting to major cities in neighboring provinces."

"Haha, it was Secretary Zhicheng who personally went to the Southern Railway Bureau to discuss this matter. He and I even went all the way to the capital, and we finally finalized the matter with the leaders of the Ministry of Railways."

Liu Hongyi smiled and nodded.

At present, railways and trains are still the first choice for long-distance travel.

It’s cheap, convenient, and can carry a lot of goods.

After all, there was no "horrible scene" like the Spring Festival travel rush in later generations.

There is no movement of personnel.

"Now, Daning's positioning has basically been determined. For the next period of time, we just need to follow this plan. However, the positioning of other parts of the province, except Chuzhou, still requires careful planning."

Having said that, Ai Gaofeng frowned slightly again.

He is impatient and is obviously very dissatisfied with the development speed of other parts of the province.

Liu Hongyi couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Ai, have you decided on that matter?"

As early as last year, when Liu Chuan had not yet gone to Jiangkou to serve as mayor, there were rumors that Ai Gaofeng might go one step further and serve as the second-in-command of Jingjiang Province.

In Liu Hongyi's memory, Comrade Bian Zhicheng served as the top leader of the provincial party committee for eleven years.

But because of him, many local historical trends have been changed, so it is hard to say whether Comrade Bian Zhicheng's tenure time is still consistent with his memory.

At least in the original time and space, Ai Gaofeng had never served as the governor of Jingjiang Province.

Ai Gaofeng didn't hide it from him. He nodded and said, "It's about the same. Before the New Year, the Organization Department had already talked to me and Secretary Zhicheng about it. Secretary Zhicheng is very supportive of this matter."

Speaking of this, Ai Gaofeng felt quite emotional.

Actually, he is really lucky.

When he was a commissioner of the Chuzhou Administrative Office, he worked with Huang Anping, who was his elder brother and took great care of him. After he took office in Daning, the provincial Party Committee's top official, Secretary Zhicheng, also took great care of him.

Given his personality, he is very lucky to meet two such big brothers in a row.

Otherwise, his work would never have been so smooth.

"If it's quick, after the New Year... Well, according to Secretary Zhicheng's request, I might still be allowed to serve as the Secretary of the Daning Municipal Party Committee for a period of time until a suitable successor is selected... Oh, it's a pity that Chu An went to Jiangkou, otherwise, he would be the most suitable person to take over in Daning."

Liu Hongyi jokingly said, "Uncle Ai, even if my dad doesn't go to Jiangkou, after Xiaoyu and I officially get married, it might not be convenient for you two to continue working together."
