...

at night.

The outskirts of Pingyang.

Two black cars stopped facing each other.

Two men got out of the car.

The two shook hands cordially as soon as they met.

Guo Xuecai was the first to say with a smile, "Boss Zhai, if everything goes well, Xu Yilong will definitely give up tomorrow... The ancient city project will be yours."

Zhai Yuhan smiled and said, "Secretary Guo, I have to thank you for your strong support. If you hadn't asked someone to add a capital verification step, I really couldn't beat Xu Yilong... After all, he still has Longjian and Jianghai Group as a backup..."

After saying that, Zhai Yuhan raised his hand behind him, and one of his men came to the back of Guo Xuecai's car carrying two heavy black suitcases, opened the trunk, and put the two suitcases in.

Zhai Yuhan smiled and said, "Secretary Guo, this is just a small token of my respect."

Guo Xuecai naturally knew what was in the two boxes. He didn't look at them, nor did he refuse. He just waved his hand and said with a smile, "You're welcome!"

Zhai Yuhan said, "Secretary Guo, just to be on the safe side, I have another suggestion that I hope you can adopt."

Guo Xuecai received the huge sum of money and was in a good mood. He asked, "What's your suggestion? As long as it doesn't violate the rules, you can say it!"

Zhai Yuhan said, "I found out that the budget for the ancient city project has been increased by 15 billion from the Ministry of Finance of Yanjing... As the saying goes, rising tides lift all boats, so should the threshold for our capital verification also be raised from 5 billion to 6 billion or 8 billion..."

The purpose of his doing so is nothing more than to add an insurance. After all, Xu Yilong is not an ordinary person. 5 billion yuan may not be able to restrict him, so he has to find a way to raise the threshold of capital verification again. Sometimes a penny can make a hero fall. Add another 10 or 20 billion and see where Xu Yilong can get so much money!

Guo Xuecai said with some embarrassment, "I have heard about this news, but the official documents have not come down yet... Is it reasonable to raise the capital verification threshold?"

Zhai Yuhan smiled sinisterly, "Isn't the right of interpretation in the hands of the municipal party committee and government? Don't you have the final say on what to do?"

Guo Xuecai chuckled and said, "Boss Zhai, you are really good at talking! Okay, I will go back and discuss with Tang Yiming to see if we can temporarily raise the threshold..."

Zhai Yuhan said, "It's not just a discussion, it must be raised! I'm afraid the 5 billion threshold will not be a problem for Xu Yilong! After all, he has not yet taken the initiative to ask the municipal government to withdraw from the competition..."

Guo Xuecai nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Just go back and wait for news."

After that, the two men got back into their cars, and the two cars drove in two different directions like strangers.
