CCTV News: In Beijing, Chen Shuting brings a woman to her door.

An Xin still felt something was wrong, and frowned, asking, "Xiang, what exactly happened?"

Li Xiang hesitated for a moment, then finally sighed.

"It's not about... the demolition."

“My dad is now the village party secretary. I don’t know what the villagers are thinking, but they all think that Gao’s Real Estate will definitely mistreat them and deduct their pay.”

"Everyone's insisting that my dad mediate, and he's arguing with me..."

As he spoke, Li Xiang pressed his brow, and finally let out a heavy sigh.

Upon hearing this, An Xin's expression darkened. She then pulled Li Xiang into the corridor and whispered, "Xiang, your uncle's concerns are valid."

"The Gao family are businessmen after all. Building such a large project as the highway will cost a lot of money, so they will definitely try to save money wherever possible. As for the demolition compensation... it's impossible not to negotiate the price."

"Moreover, Mang Village had a previous conflict with the Gao family."

"Although I haven't had as much contact with Gao Qiqiang as I have with Gao Qilin, I've known him for quite some time."

As she spoke, a dark glint flashed in An Xin's eyes: "He can't be called a bad person. Apart from his family, anyone who can be turned from an enemy into a friend will become his good friend. If he can't be used..."

An Xin patted Li Xiang on the shoulder: "How about we find Gao Qilin and discuss it?"

……

night.

In the small restaurant across from the Municipal Bureau.

Gao Qilin walked in with a smile and immediately saw Li Xiang and An Xin sitting in the center.

With his car keys casually placed on the table, Gao Qilin chuckled, "It's quite rare to see two senior police officers inviting me to dinner at the same time."

"What brings you two here?"

Li Xiang hesitated for a moment, but finally took the initiative to speak with a smile: "Brother Qilin, I... I know you've been busy lately, so it's already a great honor for you to come."

Gao Qilin chuckled.

"I'm busy? Both officers are busy too. I know they won't contact me unless there's something wrong."

"Let's not stand on ceremony, let's just say what's on our minds."

"Now that people ask for help, they know to offer to treat me to a meal. How can I refuse?"

As soon as the words were spoken, An Xin and Li Xiang couldn't help but exchange a glance, and both breathed a sigh of relief.

There is a plan.

Gao Qilin's attitude towards his friends suggests that things are going well.

Although they both knew they had come to this point.

Given Gao Qilin's current wealth, it's already an honor for them that he's willing to be friends with them.

But since there's a chance...

Thinking this, Li Xiang licked his lips and said, "Then, Brother Qilin, I'll speak frankly with you too."

"As you know, I come from Mang Village."

"Of course, I also know that what happened before was our fault in Mang Village. I apologize to you on their behalf!"

As Li Xiang spoke, he picked up the wine glass that was already full in front of him and drank it all in one gulp!

Gao Qilin maintained a faint smile throughout: "So Officer Li came today to plead for Mang Village."

Li Xiang's face flushed slightly: "Yes, Brother Qilin..."

Gao Qilin smiled and waved his hand: "It's nothing."

"Officer Li, as you know, my brother is in charge of the company's affairs."

"But there are some things I can make up my own mind about."

"First of all, we must distinguish between gratitude and resentment. Mang Village did offend me in the past, but secondly, we must handle this matter officially, team."

“I can’t control what’s wrong with my brother, but I will make sure that the people of Mang Village have a way to survive, even if the money that should be given to Mang Village is not given to them.”

As he spoke, Gao Qilin picked up the teapot on the table and poured Li Xiang a cup of tea.

Li Xiang held the teacup, somewhat flattered.

But at the same time, a weight was lifted from my shoulders!

Chapter 148 Gao Xiaoqin's Breakthrough!

As Gao Qilin finished speaking, Li Xiang finally felt more at ease.

After all, the fact that Gao Qilin could say such things meant that he would leave some way out for Mang Village.

As for whether to give more or less...

I won't get involved in this matter anymore.

After all, he knew perfectly well from beginning to end that Mangcun was at fault first.

When they offended Gao Qilin, they should have realized that the demolition issue was in the Gao family's hands.

Since we've already made this choice, we have to bear the consequences!

So at that moment, Gao Qilin only had to say a few words, and Li Xiang was already satisfied, so he put his hands together in front of Gao Qilin and said, "Thank you, thank you, Brother Qilin."

"Come on, let's eat?"

As soon as she finished speaking, An Xin quickly picked up her chopsticks: "Oh dear, I'm starving! I've been waiting for this meal..."

……

After a while.

After finishing his meal, Gao Qilin returned to Brilliant City, but before he could even open the door, Gao Qiqiang called him impatiently.

After the call connected, Gao Qilin was indeed told to go back to the Gao family home first.

Gao Qilin then went to the neighbor's house first.

As soon as the door opened, Gao Qiqiang, beaming with joy, sat on the sofa at 167 cm tall, while Gao Qisheng sat beside him, also looking very happy.

"Qilin, you're back? Come, come!"

As he spoke, Gao Qiqiang kept waving and beckoning.

Gao Qilin smiled and said, "Brother, what's making you so happy?"

Gao Qiqiang grinned: "What could it be? Of course, the project bid has been approved, and the highway project is ours!!"

As he spoke, Gao Qiqiang's face flushed with excitement: "A seven billion yuan project, Qilin..."

The words fell.

A faint smile appeared on Gao Qilin's face: "There was no public bidding, so it seems that the bidding was negotiated privately."

"Brother, you're in for a busy day."

Gao Qiqiang rubbed his hands together with a smile, but did not answer immediately.

I had many concerns before I won the bid.

What about funding, advance payments, qualifications...?

However, once the project was actually secured, Gao Qilin no longer had so many concerns.

A project worth seven billion can be completed with an advance payment of three billion, leaving four billion in hand!

It was worth it, even if it meant gritting my teeth and taking the gamble!

……

the other side.

In a hotel in Jinghai City.

Gao Xiaoqin sat on the bed in the suite's bedroom, holding the phone, her voice soft: "Young Master Zhao..."

“Now Jinghai City is using a negotiated bidding method. We are too late. The Gao family has already won the expressway project. We don’t even have the opportunity to bid.”

Zhao Ruilong on the other end of the phone sounded visibly displeased: "Gao's Real Estate?"

"What right does this small, shabby company have to beat out our Shanshui Group and win this project?"

"Do you know that the project received a grant of seven billion yuan? If we cut corners in the construction process, we can get nearly five billion yuan in hand!"

"How could you possibly lose such a big project?"

Gao Xiaoqin did not reply, but simply lowered her eyes in silence.

Soon, Zhao Ruilong took a deep breath and softened his tone: "Xiaoqin, why don't you come back first? We'll leave this to someone else, and I'll arrange an easier job for you..."

Gao Xiaoqin's heart tightened immediately.

An easier job?

That's probably just an excuse.

To put it bluntly, she still wants me to be her mistress...

If I go back halfway through this trip, I'm afraid I'll never have the chance to build my own career again.
