"Uh...ah...ahem, this is the only thing I saved!"
"What is your name?"
"Um, could you please give me your phone number? I'm his friend. I'm not lying to you."
Zhou Gui narrowed his eyes, took out his cell phone, found Liu Shuai's number, reported it, and immediately pressed the dial button.
"Hey, bro, what's up?"
"Someone is looking for you and called me."
"Hmm? Which one?"
"He refused to tell me his name and spoke Mandarin. I think you can guess who he is."
"Huh? What do you mean? Which one?"
Zhou Gui said coldly: "The village official of Hushan Village."
Liu Shuai on the other end of the phone was horrified. "Brother, I told you, I have no private contact with him! You have to believe me!"
"He doesn't even have your phone number, how can he contact you? Why are you panicking? I didn't say anything about you." Zhou Gui rolled his eyes and knocked on the table. "When he calls you later, just answer the phone and follow what he says. See what he wants to do! It's a good opportunity to test his background."
After hanging up the phone, Liu Shuai was still in a daze when a call came from an unfamiliar number.

Huo Qianli's voice was a little excited and urgent, "Did your boss agree?"
Liu Shuai finally recovered and nodded, "I agree. He's not a fool. You have the support of the officials. How can he defeat you?"
"Okay!" Huo Qianli let out a long sigh, "Very good, don't worry, I'll help you find a job when I return to Jincheng when I'm free!"
Liu Shuai was overjoyed, "Okay, okay, thank you very much!"
After closing the phone, he spat with disdain and called Zhou Gui.
Zhou Gui held the receiver and listened to Liu Shuai's retelling. He then asked for a few details and laughed, "Great! It seems my judgment was correct!"
He lit a cigarette leisurely, "He thought he had a sure win, but he didn't expect that I would cut off his advantage. This round, the advantage is mine!"
In the rising smoke, he chuckled and ordered, "You can close the net over there!"
