Chapter 204: Even the Noble Can Run Away

Hearing Dai Qing's reminder, Feng Yong breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you for your guidance, Master. To be honest, since I met Director Jiang, I feel that I am not doing things as smoothly as before."

He thought that the person had suddenly changed and he was not used to the connection for a while. He didn't expect that the other party was not his benefactor.

How could I have recognized the wrong person?

So where did his nobleman go?

Feng Yong was confused, and looked at Dai Qing with a questioning look in his eyes, "The noble person who was supposed to show up ran away?"

This is the first time I heard that a noble man ran away.

Not only Feng Yong was confused, even Dai Qing was very curious.

"In theory, the noble line that has been formed in the face cannot be avoided, unless he accidentally breaks the fate with the noble person and changes the cause and effect.

If I hadn't cut off the noble connection myself, it wouldn't have disappeared."

After listening to Dai Qing's explanation, Feng Yong was confused, but then his heart was shocked. Thinking of some things that happened some time ago, his face suddenly turned bad.

Dai Qing looked at him and raised her eyebrows. "What did you do?"

"...After Director Jiang was transferred, the project I was working on was also coming to an end. I wanted to bring people to participate in the bidding for the District Planning Bureau's project. You know that when dealing with the government, you must be fully prepared, including in terms of human relations and social etiquette."

"In the past, when Director Liu was in office, this matter was handed over to Deputy Director Chai. I was originally prepared to hand over the information to Deputy Director Chai according to the previous rules. As a result, I met Director Jiang halfway, and he seemed very interested in our company's bidding plan."

"I was so excited that I asked him to review my bidding proposal and give me some advice. Director Jiang called me to his office and we talked for a while. Then he turned to the topic of my predecessor, Director Liu, and said a lot of touching words."

"He also praised me for being an honest person and for putting reputation first in a company. He said I should be a role model. I was very excited and thought that being favored by the director would definitely make things easier for me in the future."

"So, I chatted with the director for an hour, and he praised me highly. I thought I had established a relationship with Director Jiang, and I thought we would have a good relationship in the future... Later I learned that when Director Jiang took office, several companies from other places set up branches here..."

After he asked someone to investigate, he found out that those companies were all engaged in engineering.

When he got the news, he was confused for a while. Since they already had their own people, why would they let him win the bid?

Whether it was because he was a local enterprise or for some other reason, he accidentally fell into the pit.

It is said that a new official will start with three things. Director Jiang started two things right after he took office. Not only did he complete the bidding plan, he also established a good image for himself.

Not only does it protect local businesses, it also brings in companies from all over the country to develop here.

Both fame and power were achieved.

As for him, he indirectly helped Director Jiang to squeeze out Deputy Director Chai. When he realized what was happening, he was nervous, but fortunately Director Jiang still protected him, so he was able to escape unscathed.

He thought Director Jiang was his benefactor, so others didn't pay any attention to him. He didn't expect that he was being used as a pawn.

The more Feng Yong thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. Although their company won the bid, the subsequent progress was very slow. The things that needed to be connected were stuck here and there, which was very annoying.

After enduring it several times, he was unwilling to give up and went to see Director Jiang, hoping that he could mediate. As the director of the Urban Construction Office, it was actually all up to him to say a word.

Although Director Jiang did not refuse, his words were vague, saying that young people should open their minds and work hard to overcome difficulties.

It sounds like official language and is just a perfunctory approach.

He still shamelessly pursued her and tried his best to curry favor with her. By chance, he discovered that Director Jiang was not having a good time either.

Since he discovered this, he has been particularly careful and observed carefully. Sure enough, although Director Jiang tried his best to be patient, the anxiety between his brows became more and more obvious day by day.

Once, he was reporting work to Director Jiang. Secretary Yuan knocked on the door and then pushed it open. When Director Jiang saw the secretary coming in, he frowned and got angry.

When he went downstairs to leave, he happened to meet Secretary Yuan coming out of the toilet. His eyes were red, obviously he had been crying.

Because of work matters, he and Secretary Yuan were already familiar with each other, so he comforted him with a few words of concern.

Secretary Yuan smiled bitterly and said that she didn't know what had happened to Director Jiang in recent times and he had a very bad temper. She had clearly knocked on the door, but Director Jiang didn't hear her and even scolded her for being careless.

During this period, everyone in their office was very cautious, fearing that they might offend Director Jiang.

He also found it strange at the time and became concerned. After making inquiries from many sources, he finally found out some information that after Director Liu was transferred, Deputy Director Chai was supposed to be promoted to a higher level. Everyone almost celebrated for Deputy Director Chai in advance.

He didn't expect that Director Jiang would parachute in here. As for how he set his sights on this position, he still couldn't find out.

Thinking of this, Feng Yong was stunned, and felt extremely terrified when he thought about it carefully.

If Director Jiang hadn't intervened, wouldn't Deputy Director Chai be...his benefactor?

Dai Qing looked at his expression and thought about his face the last time she saw him, and she could basically deduce a general idea.

"You'd better keep your distance from Director Jiang in the future. He is of no help to you."

Feng Yong nodded, "Actually I don't care whether you help me or not. As long as you don't cause trouble for me, I will be very grateful."

Many of his engineering projects were obtained through competitive bidding, and he needed to interact with government officials in the later stages. His biggest fear was encountering obstacles while he was working.

Dai Qing understands Feng Yong's concerns. During this period, many departments have not been optimized and their service quality is poor, especially the administrative windows. Every time people handle matters, they get very angry.

"This person looks frightened today, so he won't act very safely."

If he had the look of "Four Killers" on his face, he would not be able to escape imprisonment.

The "Four Killers" refer to blue color appearing at the inner and outer corners of the eyes, red spots on the tip of the nose, forehead and eyebrows, and blue aura on the years and longevity.

If the "Four Killings" are accomplished, the person will be thrown into shackles and jail.

If the Vermillion Bird does not move and the forehead is not blue, one will lose his job and wealth, but will not be imprisoned.

These involve personal privacy, so she is not in a position to say more, but it is okay for her to remind Feng Yong.

After all, this man was quite reliable. Not only did he trust her, he also introduced business to her. The two of them became familiar friends.

Sure enough, after hearing Dai Qing's reminder, Feng Yong said seriously, "Thank you for your guidance, Master."

As he spoke, he took out a thick red envelope from his bag and put it on the table.

"Based on my observations these days, and based on what the master said, Deputy Director Chai should be my benefactor. Do you want to make friends with him again?"

Even though he had been convicted, in the business world, where everyone is deceiving each other, who hasn't been careless at times?

In the adult world, as long as there are common interests, why worry about having no topics to talk about?
