Officialdom: After My Demotion, My Powerful Background Was Exposed

When his superior retired, Li Lin, as his secretary, was implicated and demoted to an indefinite secondment as deputy township head in a remote rural town.

With no backing, Li Lin's polit...

Chapter 139 Negotiation Successful, Everyone Shocked

Liu Yong and Ma Qingyuan looked at Li Lin with full expectation. Their eyes were full of earnestness. They hoped that he would not have any psychological burden and go to Longjian as soon as possible to discuss cooperation.

Jiang Weihua had just returned with a failure. If he went to Longjian to discuss business now, it would be like a slap in his face.

If it were someone else, they would definitely refuse to make Jiang Weihua feel better.

But Li Lin didn't. When Deputy County Magistrate Jiang threw Li Lin out, he didn't care about Li Lin's face at all.

The people at China Merchants Group laughed at him behind his back a lot.

Being magnanimous also depends on who you are treating. For example, Jiang Weihua is a narrow-minded and vindictive person. Even if you give him enough face today, he will still remember your grudge tomorrow and take revenge when the opportunity arises!

Why bother with so much? They won't appreciate your kindness anyway.

After thinking this through, Li Lin barely hesitated, his eyes were firm, and he agreed without hesitation, "Two leaders, it's still early, I'll go to Longjian now."

His answer was crisp and clear, without any hesitation, as if this was just a normal thing for him.

"Okay, that's all that matters. I'll ask Yu Xiubao from China Merchants Group to bring a few people to assist you. Just tell them what information they need." Liu Yong nodded, his face full of surprise at Li Lin's straightforwardness.

Liu Yong made a phone call, and soon Yu Xiubao and his comrades from the China Merchants Group appeared in the corridor carrying briefcases.

In front of everyone, Liu Yong gave him a death order, "Director Yu, take your people and assist Secretary Li Lin. If there is any mistake in the software data, I will hold you accountable when I come back!"

Liu Yong's voice was serious and powerful, full of unquestionable majesty.

"Secretary, rest assured. According to your request, everything that needs to be changed has been changed. We will definitely assist Secretary Li Lin and complete this important task!" Yu Xiubao stood straight and solemnly assured Liu Yong.

His expression was serious and his tone was firm, however, the corner of his eye unconsciously glanced at Jiang Weihua who was standing behind Liu Yong.

Jiang Weihua's face was extremely embarrassed, and his eyes were full of anger and unwillingness.

Seeing his former subordinates now swearing allegiance to others, he felt as if a ball of anger was burning in his heart.

Yu Xiubao also saw Jiang Weihua's expression at this time, and hurriedly smiled at him awkwardly. There was a hint of helplessness and apology in that smile, as if saying to him, the secretary has given the order, and I am helpless too.

Time was short and the task was heavy, so everyone didn't say anything else. They followed Li Lin's steps, went downstairs and took a car to the headquarters of Longjian Group.

In the car, Yu Xiubao sat next to Li Lin. He looked calm on the surface, but was a little nervous inside.

He thought to himself, I just followed County Magistrate Jiang to Longjian to lose someone, why do I have to go again to lose someone?

Hiss~ Even County Magistrate Jiang couldn't handle it, how could Li Lin handle it? Would he be kicked out again just because of a few perfunctory words?

Not only him, but other comrades in the China Merchants Group also felt uneasy at this time.

After all, Liu Haiwu's mocking words to them were still ringing in their ears. Just thinking about it makes me blush!

Li Lin sat by the window, his face remained calm as he looked at the scenery outside the window that was constantly receding with a composed expression.

Going to Longjian headquarters is now a common occurrence for him.

On the way, he calmly dialed Liu Haidong's number.

I simply said to him on the phone, "I'll be there soon, wait for me in the office." Then I hung up the phone. My tone was flat and natural, as if this was a very normal communication.

Yu Xiubao and others didn't know who Li Lin was calling, but the tone of the command sounded a bit pretentious.

Could it be that he was deliberately showing off in front of us? I don't believe he can call any senior executive of Longjian!

Yu Xiubao and others couldn't help but laugh, muttering to themselves.

They thought that Li Lin might be being mysterious and wanted to establish his authority in front of them.

The car soon arrived at the entrance of Longjian’s headquarters.

Yu Xiubao and others were dumbfounded again.

Li Lin just made an unknown phone call, and at this time, at the gate of Long Jian, Liu Haidong and a group of Long Jian’s senior executives came out to greet them.

They all had smiles on their faces, and their eyes were full of expectation and respect.

Li Lin got out of the car calmly, with an upright posture and a confident smile on his face.

Yu Xiubao and others followed closely, their steps were a little hurried, their hearts filled with surprise and confusion.

Seeing Li Lin, Liu Haidong came up to him with a smile.

He grabbed Li Lin's hand and greeted him warmly.

"Secretary Li, why didn't you come in the morning?" Liu Haidong's tone was friendly, as if he had met an old friend he hadn't seen for a long time.

Li Lin smiled and said, "Here we go again." His answer was casual and relaxed, yet revealed a kind of confidence that could not be ignored.

Liu Haidong slapped his forehead and said regretfully, "Because you didn't come this morning, I mistakenly thought it was those Shannan County officials who skipped you, so I didn't treat them well... Now that I think about it, I really should have invited them to have a simple meal... Didn't it cause you any trouble?"

His eyes were full of concern, fearing that his negligence would cause inconvenience to Li Lin.

How could Li Lin not hear that Liu Haidong was trying to take credit for himself?

These words also reflect Liu Haidong's respect for Li Lin. No matter which cadre comes, he only recognizes Li Lin.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Haiwu and other senior executives of Longjian lined up and shook hands with Li Lin warmly. Their faces were filled with sincere smiles, and every action was full of respect and attention for Li Lin, as if they were afraid that Li Lin would feel neglected.
