"What's his attitude? Who does Li Lin think he is? How dare he talk to me like that?"
His voice echoed in the reception room, as if it was going to break through the walls.
Jiang Weihua's eyes were blazing with fire. He felt that his authority as the deputy county chief was being trampled under the feet of Li Lin at this moment.
"Chief Jiang, don't be angry. What's the point of arguing with a young man like him? He dares to talk back to anyone. Don't bother with him."
Yu Xiubao consoled him carefully, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. He knew very well that Jiang Weihua was angry at the moment and was afraid that he would say something wrong and get into trouble.
Jiang Weihua simply couldn't listen. His chest heaved violently. "Okay, Li Lin! In that case, don't blame me for being rude!" He gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words.
After calming down a bit, Jiang Weihua instructed Xiu Bo, "Draft a cooperation agreement with Long Jian as soon as possible. Didn't Li Lin threaten to withdraw? Then help him! Don't let him participate in this matter. Tomorrow, you and I will go to Long Jian to sign the agreement!"
Jiang Weihua's tone was firm and full of confidence, as if he had already seen the scene of a successful contract signing.
Hearing this, Yu Xiubao's heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
He and Jiang Weihua had made many trips for this Longjian project before, but they had never even met Longjian's head Liu Haidong.
Now that Li Lin has finally negotiated a deal, if Li Lin doesn't show up, will Liu Haidong buy into their account?
"County Magistrate Jiang, is it okay for the two of us to go...?" Yu Xiubao was nervous and asked hesitantly with a trembling voice.
Jiang Weihua was already angry, and when Yu Xiubao asked him this, he became even angrier!
He stared at Yu Xiubo in dismay and shouted, "How did you get the position of Director of the Merchants Bureau with your incompetence? You have no initiative at all! Without Li Lin, will Shannan County still be transformed?"
Yu Xiubo was so frightened by Jiang Weihua's scolding that his neck shrank. He nodded and agreed quickly, "Yes, yes, you are right. I will draft an agreement right away and go to Longjian with you tomorrow..."
Although he agreed with his words, he was actually feeling anxious and worried inside.
On the other side, Li Lin and Yang Ping came out of the reception room and passed by Liu Yong's room. They found that Liu Yong had the door open and was talking to Ma Qingyuan.
When Li Lin and his friend passed by, Liu Yong quickly called him, "Xiao Lin, are you done talking so soon? Come in and have a chat."
Liu Yong looked at Ma Qingyuan with surprise on his face.
Ma Qingyuan also looked confused. The conversation was over after only a few minutes?
However, it is not difficult to tell from the cold expressions on Li Lin and Yang Ping's faces that they definitely did not reach an agreement with Jiang Weihua, or even that the talks broke down!
Li Lin was about to find Liu Yong and Ma Qingyuan to ask them what Jiang Weihua meant by that. Did they decide on it long ago and only informed him now?
As soon as the two entered the room, Liu Yong asked with a smile, "What happened? Didn't you discuss it?"
Li Lin smiled calmly and went straight to the point, "Secretary Liu, County Magistrate Ma, let me report to you two leaders. County Magistrate Jiang just said in person that he wants to move Longjian's project to Kaoshan Town. I strongly disagree!
If you insist on doing this, I will withdraw and I will not participate in Long Jian's project. Let County Mayor Jiang go and talk to Long Jian himself!"
Li Lin's tone was firm, and his eyes showed unquestionable determination.
Li Lin is full of confidence in Longjian Group! As long as he doesn't show up, Liu Haidong will never cooperate with anyone in Shannan County!
Liu Yong and Ma Qingyuan looked at each other with puzzled expressions.
There was a complexity in their eyes, showing surprise at Li Lin's tough attitude and worry about the future direction of the project.
"Xiao Lin, don't be angry. County Magistrate Ma and I just learned about this matter, so we asked you to discuss the feasibility with County Magistrate Jiang first. Since you have different opinions, we can discuss it again. There is always a solution!"
Liu Yong advised with a smile on his face, trying to ease the atmosphere.
He felt a little frustrated as the county party secretary, especially in front of Li Lin. He didn't dare to hit or scold him and had to coax him.
He thought that if he said a few nice words to Li Lin, Li Lin would accept it.
But he was wrong. Li Lin would not compromise so easily.
Everything else can be discussed, but Longjian’s project must be established in Weishui Township. No one can come and no one can say what they want!
"Secretary, County Magistrate, I, Li Lin, may not want any credit or recognition, but I must keep my promise to the people of Weishui Township! I have only one attitude on this matter: the project must be established in Weishui Township!"
Li Lin spoke bluntly, his voice loud and firm.
At this moment, he didn't care whether Liu Yong and Ma Qingyuan would be dissatisfied.
At the same time, he also noticed that Liu Yong and Ma Qingyuan had a very ambiguous attitude towards this matter. Did they have to wait for Li Lin and Jiang Weihua to have an argument before they would make the final decision?
Ma Qingyuan looked at his watch and laughed, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this today. It's almost time for dinner. Xiaoping, please make an appointment with Director Yang. We will express our gratitude to Director Yang tonight. We will talk about Long Jian's matter tomorrow."
He tried to change the subject, not wanting the conflict to escalate further at this time.
"Okay, Xiaolin, let's leave it at that for now. I'll talk to County Magistrate Jiang tomorrow to see if there's any compromise and try to keep the Longjian project in Weishui Township... Well, you know, our county is poor and the conditions in Weishui Township are too poor. County Magistrate Ma and I are in a difficult situation!" Liu Yong sighed helplessly, his face full of worry.
Li Lin wanted to laugh when he heard this. Isn't it because of poverty and poor conditions that we need to develop?
If we can't overcome any difficulties, what's the point of attracting businesses and investment? We might as well just throw up our hands and beg for money from the higher-level financial departments!
You won’t starve to death anyway, so why make yourself suffer?
This self-contradictory statement is really ridiculous!
Li Lin knew clearly that Jiang Weihua's contemptuous attitude towards him was simply because he thought Li Lin was young and easy to bully, and did not take him seriously.
But Jiang Weihua had no idea how much effort Li Lin had put into this project.
He almost lost his life twice, why did he fight so hard? It was to make Long Jian take root in Weishui Township!
Jiang Weihua thought that he could easily deal with Long Jian with his status as deputy county magistrate.
He was too conceited! He didn't understand Long Jian's real needs at all, nor did he understand the trust and cooperation foundation that Li Lin had established.
Li Lin was disappointed with the attitudes of Liu Yong and Ma Qingyuan.
They clearly knew that Weishui Township needed this project to change the face of poverty, but under the pressure of Jiang Weihua, they were hesitant and had an ambiguous attitude.
They didn't want to offend Jiang Weihua, but also didn't want to lose Li Lin, their capable subordinate. They tried to find a balance between the two, but they didn't know that this would only make things more complicated.
In that case, come on and see how Jiang Weihua convinces Longjian Group and how he gets Liu Haidong to sign the agreement!
I'm afraid the agreement won't be signed by then, which would be a humiliation for myself!
