I'm in the county town, and you say I'm a big shot?

Chapter 127 The county town is such a small place, who doesn’t have relatives and friends?

Shen Lan shook her head.

"My brother-in-law works in a hospital and doesn't deal with banks. How could he know Fang Qingye? No, no."

"Don't underestimate the hospital staff. They know the most people. Who doesn't have a headache or a fever? Who doesn't go to the hospital for treatment? What's more, they are at the director level! Even if he doesn't know Fang Qingye, he can get to know her through the people he knows! Why don't you give them a try?"

Hearing what the boss said, Shen Lan couldn't refuse, so she took out her cell phone from her bag and called her brother-in-law.

Shi Lan first briefly told her brother-in-law about the difficulties the company encountered in obtaining loans, and then asked him if he knew Fang Qingye, the assistant president of the Bank of Oriental.

"What? You know his father?"

"Okay, okay, then please tell me first."

"No, no, our Boss Bian and I are going back soon. Please tell my sister that I will come to see her next time."

Shen Lan hung up the phone and said to Bian Wengan with a smile, "What a coincidence! Fang Qingye's father is the principal of their county's Chengguan Middle School. He and my brother-in-law were classmates in junior high school and have a good relationship. He said he would contact Principal Fang first to see if he could come up with a solution. Let's wait for news."

"I'm telling you, the county town is so small, who doesn't have relatives and friends?" Bian Wengan smiled and said, "Okay, let's find a place to eat something and then go home!"

"Mr. Fang, if this is done, you have to give me a raise." Shen Lan said jokingly.

"no problem!"

Fang Qingye returned home after get off work. After a while, her mother also got off work, and the two of them had some noodles for dinner. Fang Jianwen didn't come home until after eight o'clock in the evening, and he reeked of alcohol.

Zhang Meili was used to her husband's behavior, so she got up, made him a cup of strong tea, and continued watching TV.

"Where is Xiaoye?" Fang Jianwen asked while sitting on the sofa and drinking a sip of strong tea.

"I'm playing games in my room."

"Xiao Ye! Come out." Fang Jianwen raised his voice.

Fang Qingye was not playing games, but checking some futures information on the Internet. He has been paying attention to this recently and is ready to jump in when the opportunity arises.

When he heard his father calling him, he went out to the living room and sat on the sofa opposite. He picked up the fresh strawberries on the coffee table and put them in his mouth.

"Dad, what's the matter?"

"Is there a company called Jinxiu Textile that wants a loan from your bank?" Fang Jianwen asked.

"How do you know?" Fang Qingye felt very strange.

"You found me here."

Fang Jianwen told Fang Qingye about the call he had recently received from Feng Qiang, the director of the county hospital's internal medicine department.

"His sister-in-law is Shen Lan, the deputy general manager and finance director of Jinxiu Textile. She called him around five o'clock today to tell him about this." Fang Jianwen finally said:
"Feng Qiang is my junior high school classmate. We have been on good terms over the years. Can you please help me with this?"

"Hey, Jianwen, you can't let Xiaoye make a mistake because of your relationship with Feng Qiang." Zhang Meili next to him quickly reminded.

"I didn't say I would definitely help. I'll see if we can come up with a solution without violating their bank's regulations. That's what Feng Qiang meant too!" Fang Jianwen replied unhappily.

"Mom and Dad, I actually knew about this a long time ago." Fang Qingye briefly explained the problems Jinxiu Textile encountered with the loan.

"Actually, there's some hope for this matter." Fang Qingye finally said with a smile, "It's just that I still need to continue investigating to find out the real reason behind Jinxiu Textile's private lending. Is it some kind of shady external sect practice? This matter has nothing to do with me, so I don't want to get involved. Since I've come to your classmate for help, I'll try to find a solution."

"Then when should I call my classmates back?" Fang Jianwen asked.

"Don't worry, I'll look at the information after I get to work tomorrow and find time to talk to President Xia."

"Okay, I'll wait for your news." The next day was Friday. After work, Fang Qingye did not look at the materials of Jinxiu Textile again, nor did he go to find Xia He. It was not until they finished playing badminton at Yikanyuan in the evening and sat in a milk tea shop to rest that Fang Qingye mentioned this matter.

"Jinxiu Textile? I haven't heard of this name. Can you please report the materials?" Xia He asked while drinking milk tea.

"How can I possibly get mentioned to the approval team if I haven't passed Section Chief Zhang?" Fang Qingye said with a smile.

"Xiao Fang, why are you so enthusiastic?" Xia He took a sip of milk tea and looked at him. "Is it because of Chen Meimei? I heard that Chen Meimei's boyfriend is the youngest son of Mr. Song from Kerry Real Estate, and he has a pretty good relationship with you."

"He and I have a good relationship, but that's not the reason. He asked someone to find my dad."

Fang Qingye briefly explained the relationship between the two cases.

Xia He shook her head after hearing this.

"It's so complicated."

"That's how it is in the county, it's all about connections." Fang Qingye said, "It wouldn't be good for me to refuse directly."

Seeing Xia He's silence, Fang Qingye continued, "Although banks are very averse to private lending by enterprises, to be honest, which enterprise nowadays is not involved in private lending? I think the key lies in whether it has the ability to provide a guarantee!"

Xia He nodded after hearing this, then said, "How about this, I'll have the credit department send me the company's documents tomorrow. I'll take a look first, and then we can talk about this."

"Okay, but aren't you going back to Huijing tomorrow, senior sister?" Fang Qingye was a little surprised.

"What's the point of going back? To be honest, Xiaofang, I'm temporarily living at my parents' house and I'm afraid of their nagging." Xia He said in a low voice.

oh.
"How about this, I'll come back to play basketball the day after tomorrow night!" Fang Qingye said with a smile.

"Okay. I hope I can play ball every day. When I play ball, I forget a lot of my worries." Xia He said again.

"Then I'll find you a partner, a female teacher from Chaoyang Middle School." Fang Qingye thought of Du Juan, with whom he had played basketball before. Although they didn't play together now, they would still say hello when they met sometimes.

Xia He shook her head.

"Forget it, it's not good for me to play ball every day. It's enough if you play with me once or twice a week!" Xia He smiled.

Xia He had to work and look up materials on Saturday, so Fang Qingye naturally wouldn't accompany her. He drove to Wujiazhuang early to go fishing. Now, his hands would itch if he didn't go fishing once a week.

Miao Hongbin, who did not go to the Development and Reform Bureau today, heard from him that he has been busy recently with the introduction of BYD's production base. The county has set up a special team for this purpose. County Mayor Hu is in charge as the team leader, and the deputy county mayor in charge of industry is the deputy team leader. The special team is located in the Investment Promotion Bureau, and Miao Hongbin, as the head of the Development and Reform Bureau, is one of the members of the special team.

As the sun set in the afternoon, Fang Qingye prepared to pack up his fishing gear and go home. He had a good catch today, catching more than ten fish of all sizes. He planned to send them to his grandparents' nursery. His mother was now annoyed when she saw him bringing back a bunch of fish.

Should I get a cat at the nursery?

After packing up his fishing gear and putting it in the trunk of his car, he took out his cell phone out of habit - he usually kept it on silent when fishing.

There were two missed calls, both from Xia He, which came in half an hour ago.

So he called back and the call was connected quickly. Xia He's sweet voice came from the other end.

"Going fishing again?"

"Yes, do you want to learn? I'll teach you, it's very fun." Fang Qingye said with a smile.

"Forget it. Look how many women are fishing there. I'm afraid of getting a tan."

Fang Qingye smiled, it was just a joke.

"Xiao Fang, I've reviewed Jinxiu Textile's materials. According to standard audits, their involvement in private lending is indeed problematic. In principle, we don't lend to such companies. However, since you've mentioned it, we can investigate further."

Looks like there's hope?
