Chapter 79 79. A sudden turn of events
At noon, Lin Xiao had lunch in the county cafeteria.

Jia Kai sat next to him, his chopsticks poking at the plate without moving, looking at him as if he were a monster.

"Why? Don't you recognize me?" Lin Xiao asked.

"I don't know you. Are you still my high school deskmate Lin Xiao?"

"What do you think?!"

"I said no!"

Jia Kai witnessed him handing out flyers in the morning and couldn't believe his eyes. "You were so arrogant in high school. You never talked to anyone and studied with a sullen face all day long. Now you're so good that you're even trying to kowtow to a group of businessmen in order to revitalize the unfinished building project in the town..."

Jia Kai was amazed, and suddenly grabbed Lin Xiao's head and said seriously: "No matter who you are, get off my brother Xiao!"

Lin Xiao rolled his eyes and opened his hand.

"Is it over yet?"

"Hahaha……"

Jia Kai's evil taste succeeded, and he started laughing.

Return to normalcy for a while.

"Seriously, why are you working so hard?"

Jia Kai was puzzled. "You are in charge of petitions, not the economy. It is not your business to revive these unfinished buildings! Besides, it is not that easy to revive unfinished buildings. There are several large projects in the county waiting to be revitalized. The leaders are helpless. How can the projects in your town be revived? You must be kidding!"

Lin Xiao didn't say anything and just concentrated on eating!

"You kid, do you really want to improve?"

"How do you say this?"

"If you didn't want to make progress, you would come here from the provincial capital to be a young talent. Now you are willing to risk your life for a project... Tsk tsk tsk tsk, this young man has a bright future!"

"..."

Lin Xiao rolled his eyes and was too lazy to explain.

Jia Kai said seriously, "If you really want to get this done, distributing flyers like we did this morning will not work. Once people see the word 'township' and see that it's an unfinished project, they won't continue to browse! You can only invite the heads of those real estate companies to come out, at least the project managers, the higher the better. If you talk face to face, there is still a little hope..."

Lin Xiao said helplessly: "Of course I know! But I don't know any real estate executives. Our mayor did give me a few contacts, but they were all business people. I called a lot of people, but they all hung up after a few perfunctory words. I couldn't get through when I called again. If I hadn't been really desperate, I wouldn't have come here to try my luck!"

Jakai sighed.

After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Don't say I won't help you! I have the phone numbers of the vice presidents of Longhui and Dijin real estate companies. I'll pass them to you later..."

Lin Xiao's eyes lit up.

"Of course you can. You have acquaintances in the real estate industry!"

"That's right! Do you think I've been working as a secretary for nothing for more than a year?"

Jia Kai looked arrogant, but then he said seriously, "However, I have helped you get the connection, but whether you can make an appointment depends on your ability! I only got their contact information when I was discussing business with my boss. In fact, I have never met them before..."

Lin Xiao nodded repeatedly and said gratefully: "I know, no matter what, thank you brother!"

Jia Kai glared at him and said, "I only got this civil service position because of your guidance. You're telling me this. It's boring!"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

……

Return to town in the afternoon.

After Lin Xiao organized his wording, he called the two real estate company contacts recommended by Jia Kai one by one.

After hearing his origin, the first one hung up in a hurry.

The second time, Lin Xiao learned his lesson. He immediately mentioned the name of the county magistrate's secretary Jia Kai, giving the other party the illusion that this was instructed by the county leader.

Then he mentioned the Xuefu Yaju project.

While the other party had no excuse to hang up, he introduced the feasibility of the project at the fastest speed, and his non-stop speech confused the other party.

"interesting……"

"Mr. Jiang, this is it!"

Lin Xiao struck while the iron was hot and said hurriedly, "When is it convenient for you? I will treat you to a simple meal and we can talk about this project in detail. I guarantee that your company will definitely be interested in this project."

The other party hesitated for a moment and then laughed.

"Is it appropriate for Mayor Lin, with your status, to invite us to dinner?"

"What's inappropriate about that? The mayor has friends too, and he needs to eat too!"

Lin Xiao laughed, "It doesn't matter whether this project can be negotiated or not. The most important thing is that I want to make friends with Mr. Jiang. It depends on whether Mr. Jiang will give me this opportunity!" On the other end of the phone, Jiang Bohan laughed.

"Mayor Lin is sincere, so of course I have to give him some face... Then tomorrow morning?"

"Okay, tomorrow morning, Mr. Jiang, are you used to drinking tea?" When Lin Xiao heard that he decided to have the meeting in the morning, he quickly changed his plan of eating to drinking tea.

"not bad!"

"Then I'll find a teahouse. Let's add each other on WeChat and I'll send you the place later."

"Easy to say!"

The two of them said a lot of "ah ah ah ah um hmm" before hanging up the phone.

Lin Xiao put down his phone, sat in the chair and let out a long sigh.

I couldn't help but find it funny.

In terms of rank, Jia Kai was just an ordinary clerk, but he was already a deputy clerk.

But judging from the title, people will give face to the county magistrate's secretary and will not pay any attention to him as a deputy mayor.

It’s so realistic!

Lin Xiao would not become self-pitying or feel unbalanced because of this setback.

Instead, I feel more and more that it is really difficult to do something practical when you are at the grassroots level!
Now.

No matter what happens tomorrow.

At least, this first step has been taken.

……

The next day happened to be Saturday.

Lin Xiao bought the high-speed rail ticket in advance, set off early in the morning, and arrived in Yizhou City at 8:30.

Dijin Real Estate, where Jiang Bohan works, is one of the well-known real estate companies in Yizhou. Against the backdrop of the real estate industry in the country's third- and fourth-tier cities being completely surrounded by certain parks and certain technologies, all the local real estate companies that are still alive are quite capable.

For example, Dijin is most likely a shoe cleaning shop.

Lots of brushes!
This year, the company acquired two plots of land in Yizhou and another piece of land in Ninghai, the provincial capital. It seems that the company has not been affected by the sharp decline in the real estate industry in recent years. Instead, it feels like the company is thriving.

When Lin Xiao first took stock of the local real estate developers, he felt that only Dijin and Longhui had the ability to take over the Xuefu Yaju project.

Now, of course, he must seize this opportunity.

The teahouse was booked last night. It is a quiet place with elegant environment.

Lin Xiao arrived early.

We requested a private room on the second floor. When we opened the window, we could see the famous Yuehua Mountain in Yizhou. The scenery was very beautiful.

Not long after we sat down, Jiang Bohan arrived.

Lin Xiao went downstairs to greet him and saw a sports car parked in front of the teahouse. A young man in trendy clothes, sunglasses, and with his hair blown up high got out of the car. He looked to be in his early thirties.

This outfit immediately made Lin Xiao's heart sink to the bottom.

His expression did not change, he stepped forward and stretched out his hand, saying: "Mr. Jiang, huh? I'm Lin Xiao!"

Jiang Bohan took off his sunglasses and looked him up and down with a look of surprise, obviously not realizing he was so young.

Reached out and shook it.

"Mr. Jiang, let's sit upstairs."

"There's no need to go upstairs!"

Jiang Bohan said lazily, "I asked the marketing department to check your project yesterday, and it's not worth investing in. I didn't want to come here today, but I had an appointment, and I don't like to stand you up, so I came here to tell you. I'm leaving!"

Having said that, he waved his hand and left.

Lin Xiao hurriedly tried to catch up. At this time, several middle-aged men came out of the teahouse. One of them looked more and more familiar to Lin Xiao.

"Lin Xiao?" he asked.

Lin Xiao turned around and recognized the familiar face at a glance: "Minister Zhang? Long time no see!"

Zhang Deqing shook hands with him, looked at him warmly, and patted him on the shoulder.

This scene made Jiang Bohan, who was about to leave the door, stop where he was.
