It starts with the production team driving the big truck

Chapter 1462 Is it really him?
"Here it is. Look, in order to protect his brother-in-law, Leader Cai sent his secretary in..."

Bai Guiyun flipped the newspaper and pointed at the news. "Don't think of this as an isolated incident. The relationship here is complicated. You are young and inexperienced, so let me analyze it for you... First of all, why is it Ye Jianguo? It stands to reason that a secretary should be one's confidant, right? But any person or thing is a double-edged sword. The word confidant also means that he or she has mastered more unknown secrets..."

After some analysis, Sun Jianping's face became gloomy. Struggles have always been a life-and-death struggle. On the surface, it seemed that Ye Jianguo was just accepting bribes, but in fact, there was a game between multiple forces involved behind the scenes!

"Our poor county is said to have four major families, so what about Hecheng? The relationships are even more complicated. You are connected to me, I am connected to him, I am friends with so-and-so, and he is related to someone by marriage... Besides, Leader Cai's brother-in-law is selling the shop. Can he do such a big thing alone? He will put all the money into his own pocket after the sale. Will others agree? If his brother-in-law is dragged out, who knows how many people will be dragged out!"

"Uncle, what should I do now?" Sun Jianping already had a plan in his mind, but he still wanted to consult Bai Guiyun's opinion.

"Now, in the eyes of most of your colleagues in Hecheng, you and Secretary Fang are already considered to be in the same group. So don't try to have your feet on two boats, trying to please Secretary Fang while flirting with Leader Cai. Just cling to Secretary Fang's thigh and don't let go. Remember?"

Sun Jianping nodded repeatedly.

"Go to Hecheng later to say hello to Secretary Fang and report your experience during your visit to the United States. If you have any small gifts, give one or two, but don't give too many or too expensive ones, otherwise the leader will think that your money came from illegal sources or that you accepted bribes from foreigners..."

"Well, what else?"

"That's all. Remember, it's hard to guard against villains. Don't offend people easily, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

"I know, uncle!"

After lunch, Sun Jianping rode to Hecheng on horseback. He followed Bai Guiyun's instructions and went straight to find Secretary Fang!

Secretary Fang went out to do some work. He came back half an hour later. When he saw Sun Jianping, he smiled and waved, "Sit down, sit down. I heard you went to the United States?"

"Well, my second uncle invited me to invest in a project with us. I went to discuss it with him."

Of course he can't say that I went to the United States to travel and see shirtless old women!
"Well, how was the talk?"

Secretary Fang poured him a glass of water with an eager look on his face. Sun Jianping took it and slowly turned the cup, "Of course the deal is done."

"Haha, kid! You're just busy talking about the project, why don't you go around and take a look?"

"I went to San Francisco, New York, and Jefferson... several small cities."

"Tell me quickly..."

"Well, the climate in San Francisco is pretty good. It's still quite warm now. I also went to Hollywood where movies are made... I also went to Fifth Avenue and Manhattan in New York and went to the Empire State Building to see the scenery..."

Sun Jianping talked a lot and briefly recounted his trip to the United States. Secretary Fang listened with great interest, stroking his chin.

"It seems that you have learned a lot during this trip, which is good. Didn't the ancients say that reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles? It's good to go out more often. By the way, I want to inform you about Secretary Ye. He was the one who messed with the store in the clothing building. Now the storm has subsided, most of the stolen money has been recovered, and the store sales are proceeding in an orderly manner. Now we are waiting for the official opening on February 2!"

"Is it really him?" Sun Jianping asked back. Secretary Fang looked at him and laughed. "Whether it's true or not, the overall situation is the most important. Do you understand?"

"understand!"

Sun Jianping picked up the paper bag on the side and handed it to Secretary Fang, "I didn't buy you anything good, so this little gift is not a sign of respect!"

"You kid, you're not rich, why are you buying me a gift... An alligator belt, not bad, not bad, I'll give you whatever you want."

"Leader, you are slapping me in the face!" Sun Jianping smiled, "Just consider it as a token of my appreciation!"

"What do you mean by gift or not? Just tell me how much it is. Your family is not well off and we have three children! Hurry up!" Secretary Fang was very stubborn.

After much persuasion, Secretary Fang "reluctantly" accepted the belt. He pointed to the office opposite and said, "I'm glad you reported to me right after you came back. But out of courtesy, you should also tell Leader Cai, otherwise people will think you have some complaints against the leader."

"I know. I came to see you first, and then I'll go sit with him and chat for a while."

"Well, then you go first. I have to go to the construction site in the north later. Work is closed for winter, so the building materials must be well preserved to prevent them from being stolen..."

Sun Jianping smiled. The "stealing" he was talking about was not the petty theft of you carrying a bag of cement and me pulling a steel bar, but...

understand?

Sun Jianping stood up to say goodbye and knocked on the door of Leader Cai’s office next door. When Leader Cai saw him come in, he smiled and greeted him warmly!

"Sit down, sit down, Jianping. I heard you went to the United States?"

It seems that both leaders are tough guys and know his whereabouts very well!
"Yes, go talk to my second uncle and see if we can discuss one or two projects and get some investment." Sun Jianping took the teacup handed to him by Leader Cai, put it aside, and said with a smile.

"What's the result?"

"It's hard to say!" Sun Jianping frowned. "You know, the richer people are, the more stingy they are. It's harder than climbing to the sky to get some investment money from them, but I will keep working hard!"

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. We have a weak foundation, and we can't rely on our superiors. Now we are just looking forward to two big foreign investors to invest in us!"

Leader Cai sighed, "Is everything going well at home? Didn't you come home to visit? I heard your father's job position has changed again?"

Well, this guy is watching my old man closely!

"I asked my father to go to the northwest for inspection before the New Year. He is now staying at home in Beijing. I don't know what plans he will have after the New Year."

Sun Jianping picked up the paper bag, which also contained an alligator belt, and handed it to Leader Cai, "I bought it on Fifth Avenue in New York. Do you like it?"

"Oh, crocodile leather, really nice. I've always wanted to buy one. It's rare that you're so interested, so I'd be very sorry to refuse!"

Leader Cai took it happily, stroked the black crocodile leather pattern on it, and grinned.

"By the way, boss, I heard that our clothing building is scheduled to officially open on February 2nd?"

"Yes, this clothing building can be built thanks to the funding from your seventh aunt! Go and thank her tomorrow! Now most of the stalls have been sold out, and a total of 7.5 million yuan has been raised. After deducting the 3 million yuan borrowed from you, as well as the construction materials, labor, land acquisition costs, etc., there is still some money left. I plan to invest it all in the new city project in the north!"

Sun Jianping blinked twice. What do you mean by telling me the matter of the clothing building in such detail?
"That's great! Now that we have mobilized our funds, everything will go smoothly. Our Hecheng will be on the fast track of development from now on!"

"Haha, I thought so too..." Leader Cai touched his chin, "That's right, after paying back your three million, we're still short of funds..."

"We don't need to rush for the three million for now!" Sun Jianping finally understood what he meant!
"You're really not in a hurry? Fine, I'll use it first. This is what I think. Even if you take back the three million, you have to invest it in agriculture, which takes a long time to see results. It's better to keep it with me first. When the pie is bigger, we can share the profits. How about giving you 2% interest at that time?"

"Everything is arranged by the leader!"

Sun Jianping thought to himself that the one who owes the money is the boss, and if you don’t give me money, you will just be left staring at me in vain!
