In Liu Haidong's office, the three of them seemed to be having a good conversation, but this was just a superficial illusion.

Liu Haidong has been working in the business world for many years and has met countless people.

He can usually see through all kinds of liars at a glance.

He always had a certain degree of doubt about Li Lin's identity and abilities.

First of all, this young man looks about the same age as his daughter, but he is already the head of a township, which is very rare.

Secondly, Li Lin was too decisive when he agreed to let Dongsheng take over Longjian’s distribution rights in Hanjiang, which made him feel uneasy.

Even if Li Lin is really Sun Huaide's younger brother, can he make such an important decision?

You know, the Sanding Chamber of Commerce in Hanjiang was jointly established by many local powerful people.

In the face of such a powerful force combining politics and business, shouldn't even a large enterprise with a strong background like Dongsheng carefully consider the intricate relationships involved?

In short, Li Lin gave Liu Haidong the impression that he was not very reliable.

Before meeting Sun Huaide in person or Dongsheng making a clear statement about taking over the distribution rights, he could agree to everything on the surface, but would never take any actual action.

Although he appears to be amiable and readily agrees to something on the surface, he always adheres to the principle of not releasing the eagle until he has seen the rabbit in his sight. This is the shrewdness of Liu Haidong, a veteran in the business world.

However, even though Liu Haidong concealed it very cleverly, the barely perceptible cunningness at the corner of his mouth still did not escape Li Lin's eyes.

But Li Lin remained calm and just drank his tea indifferently.

This is actually human nature. It is impossible for Liu Haidong to invest in Weishui Township regardless of everything just because of Li Lin's bold words.

After all, you may not be responsible for what you say, but what you invest is real money!

Anyone in this situation would be extremely cautious.

Li Lin could understand Liu Haidong's mentality.

Now he is waiting, waiting for a call from Sun Huaide, waiting for a call from Hou Yaodong.

"Haha, Secretary Li, it's half past four. Shall we go for a walk around the factory?" Liu Haidong said with a polite smile.

Li Lin nodded and responded, "Okay, I just want to broaden my horizons and see how Mr. Liu developed Longjian from an unknown private enterprise into a large enterprise that ranks among the best in the country."

"Haha, thank you for the compliment. I, Liu, just run my business in a down-to-earth manner. I never thought that one day it would become a listed company. This may be God's generous gift to honest people like us, hahaha..."

Liu Haidong narrowed his eyes and smiled modestly, but his eyes could not hide the pride in his achievements.

As he spoke, he had already stood up and politely extended his hand to lead the way.

After leaving the office, a group of senior executives had already lined up neatly on both sides of the corridor. Everyone had a smile on their face, and they looked at Li Lin and Yang Ping respectfully.

I have to say that Liu Haidong's arrangements were indeed thoughtful and solid. This was enough to show that he attached great importance to Li Lin and Yang Ping's visit.

Of course, what he actually values ​​is the relationship with Sun Huaide.

Yang Ping was even a little moved by this meticulous and high-standard reception arrangement.

She never expected that Hou Yaodong had such great influence in the Hanjiang business circle. With just one phone call, she could be treated like a ministerial leader in a large group like Longjian.

It was such a good feeling to be noticed! She couldn't help but feel happy.

The brothers Liu Haiwen and Liu Haiwu stayed at the headquarters to arrange a banquet to welcome Li Lin in the evening.

Liu Haidong led other senior executives and accompanied Li Lin and Yang Ping to drive to the Longjian factory five kilometers away.

After driving for about ten minutes, a huge billboard welcoming you from Longjian Group appeared in everyone's sight.

The welcome sign is a magnificent archway that is three stories high. The closer you get to it, the more shocking it is.

The construction of the archway at the entrance alone would have cost at least several million.

It allows those who do not know the inside story of Longjian to deeply feel the strong financial strength of Longjian.

Liu Haidong pointed at the memorial archway and proudly introduced it: "Secretary Li, this memorial archway is very exquisite. It cost millions to build it, and we also invited the country's leading calligraphy master to write the inscription. The fee alone is as high as hundreds of thousands!"

"So grand!" Li Lin praised generously.

Yang Ping also kept nodding her head to show her appreciation.

Not only is the archway at the entrance amazing, but on both sides of the asphalt road that stretches several hundred meters leading to the factory, there is a sycamore tree with a diameter of more than half a meter planted every two meters.

Behind the paulownia tree is an endless expanse of green planted with all kinds of precious plants.

The value of the hundreds of acres of green plants on both sides alone is inestimable.

Liu Haidong followed Li Lin's gaze and introduced carefully, "We in the Liu family have a tradition of planting phoenix trees in front of the door. Because my great-grandmother's generation once produced a high-ranking official, and it is said that the phoenix tree in front of the door attracted the golden phoenix! So, the three of us brothers discussed and spent a lot of money to plant these big phoenix trees in front of the Longjian factory..."

He sighed and continued, "But instead of attracting the golden phoenix, it attracted a bunch of vampires... It seems that sometimes feudal superstitions are not something that can be believed in!"

Li Lin smiled and said, "If you simply regard it as feudal superstition, then this idea must be abandoned. But if you think of it as a family inheritance and regard these sycamore trees as the ideas and beliefs passed down from generation to generation in your Liu family, then there is nothing wrong with it. On the contrary, it can make future generations feel that it is of profound significance."
