After Shi Baocong gestured for Long Yushan to sit down, he immediately asked,
"After accompanying Chairman Chen these few days, has he mentioned any topics about economic development?"
After a brief contemplation, the latter replied,
"He said our Beihuang County should recognize its own strengths and find a suitable development path, but he didn't say much beyond that. However, I feel he has more to say, but he just hasn't expressed it."
"Oh? Why do you think that is?"
"I don't know, perhaps he really couldn't think of anything, or maybe... he's not satisfied with his current position and is intentionally withholding his thoughts."
Sighing, Shi Baocong appeared quite helpless.
In the evening, he invited Chen Bin to the guesthouse for dinner.
"Chairman Chen, after wandering around these days, have you gained any insights?"
Chen Bin answered calmly, "I have a deeper understanding of Beihuang County, and developing the economy is indeed challenging."
