Hearing that it was Li Li calling,
Commander Xu answered the phone with a cold smile.
"Mayor Li, you're amazing!"
"You've mastered the art of discarding someone after they've served their purpose!"
"The credit is yours, but I'll take the blame and the infamy for you. You officials are so much smarter than us soldiers!"
"No wonder you've managed to run the economy so well!"
Upon hearing this, Li Li on the other end of the phone knew that Commander Xu was truly angry this time.
Otherwise, would someone who's fought half his life be talking nonsense with me here?
"Commander Xu, I really didn't know anything about this!"
"I was also fooled by that bastard Li Tian!"
After saying that, and hearing that Commander Xu on the other end of the phone didn't speak, Li Li continued,
"The day before yesterday, Li Li's son came to me to discuss investment matters. I, Li Li, am not stupid,"
"How could I not know that skipping Mr. Gao and talking to the Li family at this time would give them ammunition and cause for gossip!"
"So I refused right away!"
"Director Shi can vouch for this for me!"
Shi Yuan received a look from his old friend, then spoke into the phone.
"Commander Xu, I, Shi Yuan, can guarantee this with my life!"
"Li Li wasn't lying!"
Commander Xu on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment before speaking.
"Why did things develop to this point?"
"Why did the Li family obtain the investment approval? Why did they acquire the land?"
"This land is even right next to Xiao Gao's land!"
Upon hearing Commander Xu's words, Li Li couldn't help but reveal a strong murderous aura as he spoke.
"Grass!"
"I had barely finished refusing when Li Tian's son produced a document!"
“They told me about a contract that the Li family signed with Gao Ren’s wife, Qiu Di,”
"Their investment in building this factory is to better support Mr. Gao's business on Hong Kong Island,"
Upon hearing this, Commander Xu instantly felt as if he had been deceived.
Mayor Li,
Do I look like an idiot?
"Such a simple question could make you fall for a scam?"
Hearing Commander Xu's increasingly forceful words, Li Li quickly explained,
"Commander Xu, I called Miss Qiudi right then and there,"
"Miss Qiu Di told me that there is such a thing. Their company has several cooperative projects with the Li family!"
"Only after hearing Miss Qiu Di's personal admission did I agree to the Li family's investment!"
"But later I learned that it's impossible to do business in Hong Kong without bypassing the four major families..."
Commander Xu was shocked to learn that it had all turned out to be such a misunderstanding.
He took a deep breath and said.
"Explain the reason to your superior yourself, and also!"
"The land allocated to the Li family will be taken back."
"You'll have to explain things to Xiao Gao yourself. Don't expect anyone to clean up your mess!"
Having been in the business for so many years, Li Li certainly knew the magnitude of the mess he had made this time.
One second the whole country was praising Gao Ren as a hero,
The next second he started making dirty tricks around Gao Ren!
Isn't this a slap in their own face?
"Understood, Commander Xu!"
"I'm sure this will satisfy Mr. Gao!"
After hanging up the phone, Li Li slumped weakly into a chair.
After resting for half a minute, Li Li looked at his old partner across from him with a pleading expression.
"Old Shi, you have to help me this time!"
"Thank you for making the trip to Hong Kong Island. Please explain this to Mr. Gao for me!"
Upon hearing this, Shi Yuan immediately stood up excitedly.
"I've already helped you!"
"You don't even thank me, and now you're making me go all the way to Hong Kong Island to get yelled at!"
"Are you kidding me?!"
Upon seeing the excited Shi Yuan, Li Li immediately stood up from his chair.
He grabbed Shi Yuan's hand with a flattering expression.
"Old Shi, please help me this time!"
"You've been eyeing my few bottles of good wine, haven't you!"
"I'll give it to you right now!"
After saying that, Li Li let go of Shi Yuan's hand and jogged to the cabinet.
Take out the two 60-year-old Moutai bottles that are treasured inside!
Shi Yuan looked at the two bottles of 60-year-old Moutai in front of him and couldn't help but swallow hard.
"Old Li!"
"You've gone too far this time. If you don't offer some benefits... how am I supposed to get there!"
Upon hearing this, Li Li immediately spoke up.
"When Mr. Gao's wife came last time, didn't she say that Mr. Gao wanted to invest in building factories in other cities, and also wanted to own his own newspaper and logistics company?"
“Tell Mr. Gao,”
"I will help him secure investments in other cities and I will definitely get him the most favorable policies!"
"As for the newspaper and logistics company, I will do my best to help them get the approvals,"
"As for the location, it's the land that was previously allocated to the Li family. If that's not enough, I can expand the land a bit more!"
Upon hearing this, Shi Yuan nodded without further hesitation.
I'll help you with this this time!
"But Old Li!"
"I have to remind you, next time someone from Hong Kong comes to invest, you'd better not accept their offer!"
"You know the current situation!"
Upon hearing this, Li Li also looked shaken.
"Next time, unless Mr. Gao, or Mr. Gao's wife, comes personally with people,"
"Even if you point a gun at my head, I won't agree!"
On the other side, the chief of staff watched as Commander Xu hung up the phone.
The furrowed brows on his face had now relaxed.
