Marry a female star at a bargain price

Chapter 213 212. County leaders call for justice

Lin Xiao was so angry at being tricked by his wife that he couldn't sleep for half the night.

Go to work early the next morning.

After two consecutive weeks of heavy rain, the weather finally cleared up for one day, but on Tuesday the weather turned cloudy again.

Lin Xiao arrived at the company, had breakfast, and sat in the office.

As soon as he sat down, Sun Simiao knocked on the door and came in to report: "Lin Zhen, Angel Culture called again and wanted to arrange a time to visit Xiaguan Village again, and at the same time sit down with you to talk about the investment and development of the creative ceramic industry!"

Lin Xiao was surprised when he heard this.

"Angel Culture?"

"Correct!"

"Are they serious?"

"???"

Sun Simiao frowned, very puzzled, thinking how could this be fake?

Didn’t they come all the way here with great fanfare to inspect last time? Why wouldn’t they do it for real?
Sun Simiao didn’t know that the big boss behind Angel Culture was the big star Jiang Xueying, and he didn’t know that Jiang Xueying was actually his ex-girlfriend.

Naturally, I don’t understand why Lin Xiao would ask such a question.

Lin Xiao was also at a loss to explain.

He responded without commenting and let Sun Simiao leave.

After closing the door and hesitating for a long time, he called Jiang Xueying directly.

It beeped several times before the call was connected.

"Hey, ex-boyfriend, why did you remember to call me? Do you want to relive the old times with me?" Jiang Xueying's enchanting voice came over.

Lin Xiao was speechless after hearing this, as if he was being touched by her.

I had something important to ask and didn't bother to argue with her.

So he asked directly: "You want to invest in our Chaobai Town, are you serious?"

There was a chuckle on the other end of the phone.

"What you said, can investment be fake? How can it be fake? I promised to invest 1300 million in you, and then gave you a piece of paper. You thought it was a check, but when you took a closer look, it turned out to be from Tiandi Bank!"

"..."

Lin Xiao was speechless.

This woman is becoming more and more unruly and unruly. She is so annoying that she is killing people.

"No, how much money did you say you wanted to invest?" Lin Xiao didn't want to argue with her. He was really shocked by the amount.

"1300 million!"

"..."

Lin Xiao was choked again and was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a moment.

The last time he visited the "Iron Ceramics Creative Ceramics Museum" in Haicheng, he also asked indirectly about the total investment in that store. Although the receptionist was reluctant to say it clearly and was vague, Lin Xiao estimated that it would cost at least 1000 million.

This investment is actually not that high.

After all, that is Haicheng, a city where every inch of land is worth a lot of money and has its own currency.

But this is Chaobai Town - a non-provincial capital town located in an underdeveloped province in the central part of the country, which is filled with buffs.

The relevant industrial foundation here is so weak that it can be easily broken with just one poke.

The land here is free.

If we attract investment to set up factories here, an investment of more than 500 million is considered a large project.

But Jiang Xueying asked for 1300 million, which was higher than the investment in the flagship store of the "Tie Ci" brand in Haicheng.

Lin Xiao knew it all just by looking at the wrinkles on his butt.

This investment by the famous star Jiang was directed at himself.

His scalp suddenly felt itchy, as if he had run three laps in the middle of winter wearing thick clothes.

In light of the lessons learned from the last Kalia Fashion Dinner.

Lin Xiao didn't dare to keep in touch with this so-called ex-girlfriend anymore, so after much thought, he decided to make things clear.

"Cough cough!"

He organized his words and said in a tone that was reluctant to part with the 1300 million, "Jiang Xueying, I'm already married. There is no possibility between us anymore. Can you understand this?"

Jiang Xueying: “???”

On the other end of the phone, the female star was putting on makeup on the set and was stunned when she heard this.

I'm talking to you about investing.

You told me about marriage?

What a fuss!

"No, Mayor Lin, are you overthinking it?" Jiang Xueying was speechless.

"You don't have to hide it, I understand everything!"

Lin Xiao shook his head and sighed.

It's obvious that these women are devoted to him and can't forget him, but they still refuse to admit it, and they keep pursuing him relentlessly by saying one thing and thinking another.

How sad!

"I know. We had a bad relationship in college and almost got together. Now you are successful and a big star that everyone admires. You have money, fame, and status. Then you start to miss your youth and want to make up for the regrets you missed each other back then. I understand this feeling!"

Lin Xiao tried to persuade her while shaking his head. He felt helpless that he was so charming that his first ex-girlfriend could not forget him.

"But, I'm married now, you know? Married, get married!"

Lin Xiao said earnestly, "No matter how much you miss the past, it's already a thing of the past. Now you have an ex-husband and I have a wife, and our relationships have blossomed and borne fruit... Don't worry about whether the fruit is sour or sweet, it doesn't matter anyway, do you understand? Some things are missed, and letting them stay in memory is the best destination, and we all have to look forward..."

Lin Xiao spoke rapidly.

Jiang Xueying frowned as she heard this, and the headgear she had just put on was about to explode.

"Are you finished?" she asked.

“…That’s all!”

Lin Xiao let out a long sigh, feeling relieved.

On the other end of the phone, Jiang Xueying's tone was very calm: "Then I'll tell you!"

Lin Xiao hummed, but no longer had any expectations for what she would say.

Because based on what this woman had done some time ago and her determination to invest in Xiaguan Village until she achieved her goal, he could conclude that what he was about to hear next would definitely be a domineering and affectionate confession.

This woman will not let me go easily.

Lin Xiao felt worried just thinking about it. Being too charming is a sin!

At this time, Jiang Xueying's voice came calmly: "First, Angel Culture's investment in Xiaguan Village in your town has nothing to do with you!"

Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment.

"Um?!"

"The Iron Ceramic Art Gallery has branches in the four major first-tier cities and has gained a high reputation online."

Jiang Xueying spoke calmly and steadily, with a kingly aura, "As the brand investor and operator, Angel Culture has also conducted in-depth research on the future development path of this brand. After research, it has been decided that the company will temporarily stop preparations for opening branches, and build three production bases across the country to digest the current popularity!"

She paused and continued, "You know, the Tieci Ceramics Museum not only has pottery experience classes, but also collaborates with major IPs to produce many popular ceramic crafts. The online pre-sales of these products are very good, and the income is higher than the offline experience classes in the store.

"But considering the limited shipment of pottery from the four stores, it is necessary to open a dedicated factory to meet the growing online orders. But to open a factory, capital is not the first priority.

"The most important thing is that the transportation is convenient, it can radiate to as many inland provinces as possible, and there must be enough professional talents in pottery making... After comprehensive research, we found that your Xiaguan Village just meets all the requirements, so we decided to invest!"

Lin Xiao was stunned after hearing this.

He listened carefully to Jiang Xueying's speech, trying to find evidence that she was lying, but to no avail.

What she said made a lot of sense, and it was entirely from a business perspective.

There is not even a hint of emotion involved!!!

"Okay...what about the second one?" Lin Xiao asked, looking forward to hearing some other answers.

"Secondly, I am an old rabbit who wants to return to my former lover, but I also have dignity. I am not a slut with no bottom line!"

"..."

Lin Xiao was speechless, thinking that there was no need to say such harsh words.

Jiang Xueying smiled and said, "Before, I was determined to get you back. But after the last fight with your wife, I found that she is actually quite good. She is young, beautiful, capable, and strong-willed. She is much more capable than I thought. I thought she was not worthy of you before, but now it seems... she is more than enough!"

Lin Xiao frowned.

No, what does “more than enough” mean?
Jiang Xueying smiled sweetly: "I wanted to get you back, but I was somewhat unwilling to do so. But now, you already have someone who is more suitable than me, so my unwillingness has disappeared without a trace!"

As she said this, she let out a long sigh, pretending to be relaxed.

"Forget it. There are plenty of little wolf puppies in this world. I don't need to waste my time on a local dog like you. It's not worth it!"

"..."

Lin Xiao couldn't help but want to beat someone up.

Now, he got exactly what he wanted...but he was even more annoyed!!!

"So you are sure that the investment in Angel Culture is completely rational, right?" Lin Xiao asked persistently.

"As for rationality, it's definitely impossible to be completely rational!"

"Ok?"

"Even if we want to build a production base, we don't have to build it in a shabby town like yours!"

Jiang Xueying smiled sweetly, "The reason why I gave up a better choice and took 1300 million to play with you... is to repay you for the song "Later" you wrote for me that year!"

Lin Xiao was speechless for a moment.

He could accept this answer.

Jiang Xueying said calmly: "Although I said confidently in front of your wife that I have achieved my current achievements and status through my own hard work, it is undeniable that if this song had not paved the way for me in the entertainment industry, no matter how capable and hardworking I am, I would never have been able to get along so smoothly... I owe you a favor!"

Lin Xiao laughed: "1300 million for one favor, that's too valuable. I have to give more favors to others in the future!"

Jiang Xueying laughed out loud on the other end of the phone.

After all this conversation, the investment issue has been discussed and there is no need to worry about it anymore.

"It's been almost a year since you got your marriage certificate, but you haven't had the wedding yet?" Jiang Xueying suddenly asked.

"not yet."

"When is the event? Remember to send me an invitation!"

"..."

Lin Xiao was speechless, thinking to himself, sending an invitation to my ex-girlfriend, does it mean that I think my wedding is not exciting enough?

He immediately found an excuse and said, "It's not certain whether it will be done or not. My wife is pregnant now. I'll give birth to the baby and then recover... I have a lot of time!"

After these words were spoken, there was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time.

Lin Xiao thought he had hung up accidentally, so he took out his phone to look at the screen and found that the call was still going on.

"Hey?"

"…I'm pregnant, that's good!"

Jiang Xueying's voice was obviously tense, and she no longer had the cheerfulness and comfort she had just had.

There was silence between the two parties for a moment, and the atmosphere became inexplicably awkward.

After a long while, Jiang Xueying continued, "You are quite amazing. Your wife is so devoted to you that she gave birth to your child without even having a wedding... It seems like you two really love each other!"

The last sentence had an inexplicably sad tone.

Lin Xiao noticed it, but didn't know how to respond, so he could only smile awkwardly.

"Since you can't make it to the wedding, forget it. I'll consider this investment as my gift to you. I wish you a long and happy marriage!"

"Well, thank you."

Lin Xiao sighed.

Jiang Xueying added: "But then again, I don't mind being a stepmother... If you break up in the future, you're always welcome to come find me!"

Lin Xiao: “???”

Just now I was feeling a little emotional because of this woman's transformation from an evil to a good one, and she turned around and blurted out this sentence.

It turns out that a dog will never change its nature!
"Haha, bye!"

Lin Xiao hung up the phone directly.

Thousands of miles away, Jiang Xueying was sitting in the dressing room, looking at the hung up phone.

The relaxed smile on his face disappeared in a second.

The makeup artist standing behind him couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Every time Jiang Xueying showed this expression, it meant that someone was going to suffer - and she didn't want to be the one who suffered.

"Sister Xueying...are you still going to put on makeup?" the makeup artist asked timidly.

Jiang Xueying raised her eyes and said in a cold tone: "Nonsense! If you don't do it, I will!!"

Makeup artist: "..."

I didn't dare to say any more nonsense and continued to put on makeup, my technique becoming more and more gentle.

……

the other side.

After Lin Xiao hung up the phone, he also felt that Jiang Xueying's emotions were changing a lot, and he couldn't figure out what this woman was thinking.

But it is undeniable that she should have let it go completely.

This also makes Lin Xiao feel truly at ease.

In particular, the Tieci Ceramics Museum will soon be settled in Xiaguan Village. This is great news for restoring the glory of Xiaguan Village's pottery industry, for the reemployment of villagers with pottery skills in Xiaguan Village and even the whole town, and for boosting the rural tourism industry in the entire Chaobai Town.

Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

Where can you find such a good thing where you can take advantage of your ex-girlfriend without having to take any responsibility?

Lin Xiao couldn't help but sigh, he really spent all his money this time!
Just as he was sitting in the room feeling lucky, the office phone on the desk rang - it was Qin Zhenggang calling, asking him to come over.

Lin Xiao didn't take it seriously and was just planning to report the Angel Culture investment to Qin Zhen.

Just walked to the door of the mayor's office.

Before I even knocked on the door, Qin Zhenggang opened it and came out, saying in a serious tone, "Come with me to the county. The county leaders already know about the self-immolation incident in Jiajia Village yesterday. They asked us to go over and report the situation!"

Lin Xiao's eyes flashed.

Although yesterday's incident was resolved successfully, there were no casualties.

But after all, the commotion was so big, and the "self-immolation" was such a sensitive and extreme method, so it was understandable that the county leaders learned about it and were furious. Lin Xiao did not evade responsibility and went to the county with Qin Zhen.

After parking the car, the two were led directly into the office of the county magistrate Liu Wang. Then, two deputy county magistrates also came in. One was Zhou Yuanjun, who was in charge of security and stability, and the other was Ma Yongqiang, who was in charge of economy and culture and tourism.

The three leaders sat at their respective positions.

Liu Wang sat behind the desk, while Zhou Yuanjun and Ma Yongqiang sat on the guest sofa.

Qin Zhenggang and Lin Xiao were not given seats and stood in the middle of the office, looking as if they were being interrogated.

Qin Zhenggang's expression immediately became serious.

In comparison, Lin Xiao was contented.

Without waiting for the leader to question him, Qin Zhenggang quickly gave a brief report on what happened yesterday.

Of course, there are tricks to reporting. No matter how honest Qin Zhenggang is, he has mastered some of the Spring and Autumn style of writing.

So the result of the report was: how serious the commotion at the scene was was glossed over, and how the town made emergency dispatches, how it turned the tide, and how it provided emergency support were all talked about in great detail.

Lin Xiao, who was listening at the side, took a deep breath and his opinion of Qin Zhen changed drastically.

"Qin Zhen, I always thought you were an honest man!!" he exclaimed in his heart.

before.

After hearing the whole story, the three leaders' dark faces slowly returned to normal and their anger mostly dissipated.

County Magistrate Liu Wang pondered for a moment before saying, "Although the problem has been solved, we cannot let it down. The people's extreme behavior shows that before the restoration project of this ancient village began, the investigation and demonstration were not sufficient, and the people's needs were not asked in depth, which led to such a vicious incident. In the future, we must be highly vigilant, strictly prevent and control, and ensure safety and stability during the construction process!"

Qin Zhenggang nodded repeatedly: "What County Magistrate Liu said is right. We must make a deep summary and reflection, and we will never let this happen again in the future."

Liu Wang nodded and said nothing more.

This means that the matter ends here and bygones are bygones.

Qin Zhenggang breathed a sigh of relief.

However, at this moment, Ma Yongqiang on the sofa suddenly spoke in a cold voice: "County magistrate, if you ask me, the villagers' self-immolation happened this time because Chaobai Town's rural tourism was too radical! To put it bluntly, it was because they took too big a step and got into trouble!"

As soon as these words came out, the other four people in the office changed their expressions.

Lin Xiao looked at Deputy County Magistrate Ma and saw through the situation in a second - he had been very dissatisfied with Honghui Construction, which had won the bid because of the bidding for Jiajia Village, and Ding Honghui, the president of Honghui Construction, claimed to be Deputy County Magistrate Ma's man.

Let’s not talk about whether this statement is reliable or not.

The fact that Ding Honghui dared to use Ma Yongqiang's cover in such a high-profile manner shows that they must be related.

In order to advance the project quickly, Lin Xiao has embarrassed Ding Honghui several times.

It was simply impossible for him not to complain to Ma Yongqiang.

However, Ma Yongqiang would not rashly cause trouble for the deputy mayor just for a businessman.

In particular, Lin Xiao "has unknown origins", "is young and promising", and "is suspected to have a powerful background", and the words he used to insult Ding Honghui were all justified, legal and compliant!
Even if Ma Yongqiang had any opinions about Lin Xiao, he would only keep them in his heart.

As for Ding Honghui, he was told to give up his illusions, focus on completing this project and not embarrass himself.

Because of this, Ding Honghui had no way out and finally behaved himself.

The renovation project of Jiajia Village has been progressing very smoothly recently and the quality is quite excellent!
This is exactly the effect Lin Xiao wants.

He was too lazy to think about the rest.

But now I have to think about it.

But one can easily guess that he and Deputy County Chief Ma had a feud because of the Honghui Construction incident.

Now, Ma Yongqiang has got a hold of his weakness, and he must take revenge!

When this big hat was put on, the faces of several people in the room changed.

Ma Yongqiang said in a stern tone, sneering: "As the saying goes, a good cook cannot cook without rice! Other towns and villages are developing rural tourism because they have mountains, water and resources. It is God's gift, and it is unreasonable not to develop it!

"But our Chaobai Town is already short of tourism resources, with only Laoya Mountain and a hot spring! Yes, the team of Chaobai Town is also brave and capable, and has really transformed this mountain into a new look and revitalized it. In my opinion, we should stop here while we are ahead.

"What about the development of ancient villages and the excavation of kiln culture? It's completely forced! Who wants to see those shabby houses in Jiajia Village and those dark, ugly abandoned kilns in Xiaguan Village? To put it bluntly, it's just artificial tourist attraction packaging, without considering the actual situation, just spending money to buy political achievements..."

As Ma Yongqiang spoke, he let out a long sigh, looking regretful and sorrowful.

Lin Xiao stood in the middle of the office, looking at him with interest, wanting to hear what he would say!

Ma Yongqiang continued, "Young people nowadays are too ambitious and have high aspirations but low skills! Laoya Mountain has just been revitalized, and it would have been enough to make good use of this resource, but they still want to create special tours and rural tours... Now, tens of millions of funds have been invested, but the villagers don't buy it and make such a fuss. Isn't this a joke with the hard-earned money of the people?"

Speaking of "hard-earned money", Ma Yongqiang patted his hands together, looking very distressed.

Lin Xiao said nothing, his face calm, and just watched him perform quietly.

However, County Mayor Liu Wang and another deputy county mayor Zhou Yuanjun obviously took these words to heart, and their expressions became even more serious.

Lin Xiao understood.

When Chaobai Town proposed the project of developing rural tourism, the county was always skeptical.

It’s just that Chaobai Town’s economic development momentum is rapid this year, creating a lot of tax revenue for the county, and later made great contributions to the development of Laoya Mountain.

Whether from the perspective of rewards or encouragement, the county has to support this grandly planned rural tourism development project.

However, support does not mean optimism.

Although Ma Yongqiang's words just now were somewhat provocative and exaggerated, the county leaders all had more or less the same doubts in their hearts.

And now, the "self-immolation" incident in Jiajia Village has happened.

The hidden worries that had been lingering in the leaders' hearts suddenly surfaced.

Whether this rural tourism development can succeed is not the most important thing.

What matters is that if a similar extreme incident happens again, even just once, it will be enough to give these people in the room a hard time.

Leaders have to be on guard.

So after listening to Ma Yongqiang's analysis, Liu Wang did not give Qin Zhenggang any chance to speak.

Ask directly: "Yongqiang, what do you mean?"

Ma Yongqiang's face was righteous and stern: "If it were you, I would stop the two projects immediately. Although the investment has been made, these two villages are the focus of this year's rural reconstruction project. It's still in time to change the plan and only do the rural reconstruction and infrastructure improvement part!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Zhenggang immediately panicked.

"Ma County, this won't do!"

He said excitedly, "Both projects have been studied repeatedly, and now the bidding has been completed. The bid amount is also based on the content of rural tourism development. Compared with the initial rural reconstruction project, the funds have doubled. Changing the plan now is not only procedurally illegal, but even the winning company cannot agree to it!"

Liu Wang and Zhou Yuanjun looked solemn and said nothing.

Ma Yongqiang said at this time: "If the procedures are not in compliance, then we should start over! The starting point of the two projects was to benefit the people, but now the people themselves are not satisfied with it. It is responsible to the people to stop it in time. The winning company must agree even if it does not agree!"

Qin Zhenggang became more and more anxious and wanted to argue again.

Liu Wang coughed at this time, and the room immediately became quiet.

He looked at Ma Yongqiang, then at Qin Zhenggang, his face dark, and it was unclear what he was leaning towards.

There was a weird atmosphere in the office.

At this time, Liu Wang's eyes fell on Lin Xiao. Seeing his indifferent expression, he felt very strange.

Liu Wang knew it very well.

Although Qin Zhenggang is the top leader of Chaobai Town, the overall plan for rural tourism development was actually formulated by the young Deputy Mayor Lin. Jiajia Village and Xiaguan Village are the pioneers of rural tourism development in Chaobai Town, and their current renovation projects are also fully led and promoted by Lin Xiao.

Now Ma Yongqiang proposes to stop the project.

Logically speaking, Lin Xiao should be more excited than Qin Zhenggang.

But now, the young man said nothing, and even his face did not show any anxiety or anger.

"Could it be that after a few months of training in the countryside, he has become more stable?"

Liu Wang guessed in his heart.

However, thinking about the various rumors about him in recent times, County Magistrate Liu quickly rejected his own guess.

He was too lazy to guess and asked directly: "Lin Xiao, what do you think?"

When asked this question, everyone's eyes immediately fell on Lin Xiao.

The three men had completely different expressions—Qin Zhenggang was expectant, Ma Yongqiang was provocative, and Zhou Yuanjun was curious.

Faced with the inquiring eyes, Lin Xiao just smiled indifferently.

"I?"

Liu Wang nodded: "Yes, you are the person in charge of this project, of course I have to ask for your opinion!"

Lin Xiao smiled again.

"If you ask me...I will completely obey the arrangements of the county leaders!"

"??"

The four of them were stunned.

Qin Zhenggang had seen Lin Xiao's courage and eloquence, and thought that he would seize the opportunity and go all out on the spot. He was even ready to help him put the brakes on at any time if he couldn't help but curse at his leader.

But Qin Zhenggang never expected that Lin Xiao’s answer would be - obey the arrangements!
He is stupid.

Ma Yongqiang was also stunned.

Zhou Yuanjun, who was watching the fun, smiled coldly, thinking that this famous Deputy Mayor Lin was just like this!
County Magistrate Liu Wang was also surprised and laughed: "If this project is really stopped, are you sure you can obey?"

Lin Xiao grinned and said, "Obey! If the leaders really want to make this decision, it must have been after full consideration. If a small deputy mayor like me disobeys, then there is something wrong with my political stance!"

This is righteous and true.

But several people could hear that the boy was not convinced.

When Ma Yongqiang realized this, he was actually happy - what he wanted was for Lin Xiao to be dissatisfied, then he would feel relieved!

"But..."

Lin Xiao spoke again, his voice dragging out at the end, with a strange smile in the corner of his eyes.

Ma Yongqiang's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He felt that this kid was acting strangely and something was very wrong today.

What he said just now was actually meant to deliberately provoke Lin Xiao.

Based on his understanding of Lin Xiao and the rumors he had heard recently.

What he had just said was enough to make the young and hot-tempered deputy mayor slam the table and curse his leader as a stupid idiot.

I really need to curse this out.

No matter how powerful his backing is, he can't make any waves in Chaobai Town - this is actually Ma Yongqiang's purpose.

But Ma Yongqiang never expected it.

This kid was indifferent throughout the whole process, and even said "obeyed the leadership's arrangements" in the end.

This strange turn of events made Ma Yongqiang completely at a loss.

Now, listening to Lin Xiao suddenly start talking again.

Ma Yongqiang was nervous and curious. He always felt that this kid was holding back some big moves, and he was even a little impatient.

Under the expectant eyes of four middle-aged men.

Lin Xiao smiled calmly again and said slowly: "I will absolutely obey the decision of the leader. However, if the projects of Jiajia Village and Xiaguan Village are really stopped, it would be a pity. It's a 1300 million investment!"

He shook his head, looking regretful and sighing.

Several people were stunned, including Qin Zhenggang, who stared with his eyes wide open, not daring to say anything, and roared in his heart, "What nonsense are you talking about, kid?"

The atmosphere in the office changed quietly.

Seeing that County Magistrate Liu and Deputy County Magistrate Ma were reluctant to ask, Zhou Yuanjun finally spoke up: "Lin Xiao, what do you mean by 1300 million?"

Lin Xiao stared in pretended surprise.

"Oh, I forgot to report to my boss, didn't I? Oh, I was so busy these past two days that I forgot..."

He looked panicked and said hurriedly, "Those ugly black kilns in Xiaguan Village were spotted by a cultural investment company in Haicheng. This company created a special pottery brand called 'Iron Porcelain', which has been very popular recently and is loved by young people.

"This brand has recently been looking for brand incubation cooperation opportunities in central provinces, and then they set their sights on Xiaguan Village. We have history, experience, ready-made kilns, and support from the town, so the two sides hit it off. They have just decided to invest 1300 million..."

Lin Xiao was so excited when he spoke that he glanced at Ma Yongqiang and found that his face had turned pale.

Lin Xiao smiled slightly, shook his head and sighed: "However, since the leaders think that our Chaobai Town's rural tourism development project is a rush job, it is difficult for a good cook to cook without rice... then forget it, I will resolutely obey the leadership's decision and reject this company in a moment!"

Ma Yongqiang: “!!!”

He glared at Lin Xiao, while Lin Xiao looked at him with a gentle smile.

Neither of them spoke.

But the other three people watched and vaguely saw a big slap on Ma Yongqiang's face, which was really horrible.

The three of them were whistling in their hearts.

Qin Zhenggang: No, brother, are you serious?!
Zhou Yuanjun: Fortunately, I didn’t join in the discussion. This young man is really talented and bold. He is so awesome!
Liu Wang: ...1300 million?!

The atmosphere paused delicately for a few seconds.

Liu Wangcai coughed twice and said, "The big companies in Haicheng are interested in cooperation. We can't neglect them no matter what. Not to mention that the county and town want to revitalize the kiln culture and ancient kiln resources in Xiaguan Village. Even if there is no such plan, we have to plan for this investment..."

Qin Zhenggang nodded repeatedly.

Lin Xiao also nodded in approval, and then added: "But County Liu, County Magistrate Ma just said that this project is not going well..."

As he spoke, he looked aggrieved and pitiful.

Qin Zhenggang was so anxious that he was shaking and wanted to sew his mouth shut manually.

Even though Liu Wang was a man who had seen a lot of things, he was still a little unprepared. He hurriedly said, "Such a large project, whether it is promoted or stopped, must be carefully studied and discussed by the team before it can be decided! Now I ask you to sit here and discuss it for the purpose of democratic communication and expressing your opinions. It's not yet time to make a formal decision. Why are you in such a hurry?!"

Liu Wang's tone was stern, and the warning he meant could not be more obvious.

Everybody heard it.

Qin Zhenggang was terrified, fearing that Lin Xiao would say something outrageous again, so he quickly said: "What the county magistrate said is right. We believe that the leaders will make the right decision to support and help the development of Chaobai Town... County Magistrate Liu, if there is nothing else, we will go back first!"

Liu Wang nodded quickly, his neck covered with sweat.

Qin Zhenggang didn't dare to stay for even a second and retreated, pulling Lin Xiao's arm.

Until the door closes.

The four people inside and outside the door breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Only Lin Xiao remained calm and composed, smiling peacefully, as if he had just returned from the beach in Sanya.

Qin Zhenggang glared at him angrily.

After dragging him into the car, I dared to ask: "Is the project you mentioned true or false?"

"Which project?"

"Stop pretending! The 1300 million I just mentioned in the conference room!"

“Oh…that!!”

Lin Xiao suddenly understood, raised his eyebrows ambiguously, and then said two words: "Guess~"

"???"

Qin Zhenggang wanted to blow his head off! !
