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

Chapter 22 But it depends on the opportunity

Fang Qingye fished until the sun set and caught eight fish in total, including three half-foot-long silver carp and bighead carp, two crucian carp and two black carp.

The most satisfying thing was catching a one-pound mandarin fish - this kind of fish is relatively difficult to catch, so I came back with a big catch.

Go home and ask mom to steam it!

Fang Qingye whistled and rode his scooter happily home.

Fang Qingye did not go out in the evening. He continued to read books and build mathematical models at home. At noon the next day, Fang Qingye played a stand-alone game of Warcraft for a while. Seeing that it was almost time, he went downstairs and rode his scooter straight to Song Dahai's house.

Song Dahai's villa is located in the east of the county town. It is a three-story European-style building with a stone lion squatting on each side of the gate, with its fangs and claws bared.

Song Dahai also has an older brother named Song Dahua, who is over 30 years old this year. He is the deputy general manager of Kerry Real Estate Corporation and the future successor of the company. However, he and his wife and family do not live here, but live in a duplex in the city.

They also have a German Shepherd at home. It's very fierce, but Fang Qingye comes here often so he's a regular customer. The German Shepherd sticks out its tongue and wags its tail at him.

"Dahai, where are your parents?" Fang Qingye asked Song Dahai who came to open the door for him.

Song Dahai smiled and said, "My mom went to play mahjong, and my dad hasn't come back yet. How about we play a few rounds of CS first?"

CS (Counter-Strike) was all the rage in Internet cafes in the first few years of the millennium. At that time, Fang Qingye was still in high school. He and Song Dahai and Liu Dong would often sneak out during evening self-study to play online games in an Internet cafe near the school.

At that time, almost all the boys in the Internet cafe played this game. More than a dozen people were divided into two rows facing each other, playing online against each other. It was very lively.

Internet cafes were filled with the sounds of "GOGO" and "Fire in the hole!" as well as intense gunfire explosions, but this gradually declined and Warcraft began to rise.

But Song Dahai has always liked playing this game, perhaps because of his military service. Now that there is no one to play against in the Internet cafe, he goes to the HaoFang platform to open a room and find someone to play with.

Now seeing Fang Qingye coming, he immediately pulled him online and they both took out snipers to duel on the Desert 2 map.

Fang Qingye refused.

"Da Hai, I am no match for you. Isn't this just asking for trouble?"

"Let me torture you, let me torture you for a bit, let's go upstairs"

Not long after, gunfire was heard from upstairs.

Fortunately, after playing only two games, he heard someone calling Song Dahai outside the door. It was his father who came back, so Fang Qingye took the opportunity to quit.

Song Qingdong's tea room was on the third floor. Fang Qingye followed him there. It was filled with Chinese-style mahogany furniture. A large mahogany tea table was placed in the middle, with Gongfu tea utensils on it.

"Xiao Ye, sit down." Song Qingdong greeted with a smile.

Fang Qingye smelled alcohol on him, obviously he had just finished a social event. He was sitting on a mahogany chair, and Song Dahai also sat beside him.

"A friend of mine brought some Dahongpao from Fujian Province. They say it's pure Dahongpao from Niulankeng in Wuyi Mountain. It's not as good as the original Dahongpao, but it's pretty close. Let's try some today."

After saying that, Song Qingdong took out a small can of tea from the tea cabinet and started to boil water to make tea.

Song Qingdong did it himself, warming the cups, placing the tea, washing the tea... meticulously, while Fang Qingye and Song Dahai watched from the side.

After a while, the tea was finally brewed, and Song Qingdong poured a cup for each of the three people.

"Try it. How does it taste?"

Fang Qingye picked up the teacup and took a sip. "Uncle Song, it tastes really good. There seems to be a hint of orchid in it?"

"Yes, this is the characteristic of Dahongpao. It has a rich fragrance like orchid. It seems that you know a lot about tea?" Song Qingdong said with a smile.

"Not really. My grandfather has a nursery where he grows all kinds of flowers, especially orchids, so I am more sensitive to the smell." Fang Qingye replied.

Song Dahai, who was sitting next to him, also took a sip from the teacup, but he didn't taste any orchid flavor.

He doesn't like tea, he prefers beer or cola.

After sipping the tea for a while, Song Qingdong turned the conversation to the main topic: "Xiao Ye, you are very smart. You have guessed why I invited you to have tea today."

"Is it about the loan?" Fang Qingye asked with a smile.

"Yes, we had dinner together the night before last, and you saw President Xia's attitude. Although she said she was going back to study it, she was actually refusing to talk. The fact that President Xia took you to dinner shows that she trusts you and regards you as her confidant." Song Qingdong said.

Confidant?

Not necessarily, maybe it’s a shield?

But Xia He really appreciated him now, and he knew it. "Please do me a favor. Whatever you can do, just convince President Xia to loan me 1000 million yuan. Of course, the more the better. If you can get it done, I'll definitely thank you," Song Qingdong concluded.

Fang Qingye pondered for a moment, put down his teacup, and then said, "I'll try my best, but I can't guarantee whether it will succeed. Also, don't mention thanking me. You also said that Dahai and I are good brothers."

"Well, thank you."

Song Qingdong was naturally happy to see Fang Qingye agreed so readily, but he also had some doubts. Could he really do it?
After finishing the business, Song Qingdong said he wanted to go back to his room to sleep for a while, so you left casually.
Only then did Song Dahai ask, "Hey, Ye Zi, how did you manage to get your senior sister, the bank president?"

"It's not that difficult, but it depends on the opportunity." Fang Qingye said casually.

"what chance?"

Fang Qingye smiled slightly and did not answer.

"Okay, okay, I won't ask, just take care of it." After saying that, Song Dahai pushed Fang Qingye out.

"what?"

"Let's fight, but I won't torture you this time. Let's go to the Haofang platform."

"Ok."

Fang Qingye spent the afternoon amid the sound of gunfire, and in the evening she ate sour soup rice made by the nanny at Song Dahai's house before leaving.

On the last day of the holiday, Fang Qingye did not go out and just read books at home all day.

After the May Day holiday, Fang Qingye went to work on time. He found an opportunity to look through the loan application materials submitted by Kerry Real Estate Company, thinking about what Song Qingdong said.

Of course, he could go directly to Xia He, explain his intentions, and ask Xia He to agree to the loan, but Fang Qingye knew in his heart:

Based on my more than ten years of experience in the workplace before my rebirth, the chances of success in doing this are almost zero.

Xia He is indeed grateful to him and appreciates him, but this does not mean that you can make your own suggestions, not to mention that such suggestions will make the other party take certain risks.

More importantly, Xia He disagreed in her heart!

Gotta have a chance.

Unexpectedly, the opportunity came so soon.

That afternoon, as Fang Qingye was about to get off work, he went to the carport to push his small pedal board when he heard the office director Wu Shengli standing in the yard and shouting, "Lao Zhang! Lao Zhang!"

No one answered.

"Where is Old Zhang? He didn't even answer his phone. President Xia's meeting is over. Wait for him to pick him up. If you don't want to work, get out!" Wu Shengli said angrily.

"Where is President Xia going to the meeting?" Fang Qingye casually asked the female colleague who was riding a bicycle next to him.

"I heard that they were going to a meeting at the county government. The county notified the presidents of all branches to go, saying that they wanted to support real estate work." The female colleague replied.

Support real estate work?
Fang Qingye immediately realized something, this was a good opportunity to speak!

He didn't take the step but walked towards Wu Shengli: "Director Wu, Master Zhang must have something urgent to do. Should I go and get President Xia?"

"Can you drive?" Wu Shengli was a little skeptical.

"Yes, I got my driver's license when I was in school and often drive my friends' cars, but I don't have the keys to the company's car." Fang Qingye replied with a smile.

"Okay, I'll give you a spare key."

After saying that, Wu Shengli returned to his office. Less than two minutes later, he hurried back with a key.

"When driving a Passat, be careful, drive slowly and pay attention to safety on the road." Wu Shengli reminded.

"Don't worry, I'm a good driver."

Fang Qingye took the car keys, went to the garage to drive the Passat out, drove out of the bank gate and headed towards the government building.

The government building of Nanxin County is located in the newly developed urban area, about six kilometers away from the old urban area. It is said that this is to promote the relocation of real estate industry in the new district.

Fang Qingye drove for ten minutes to the entrance of the government building and saw Xia He, wearing an OL suit, standing at the door of the hall waiting.
