Chapter 22 The Mysterious Merchant



Gaoqiang convenience store.

Li Lin pushed open the glass door and saw Gao Qiang lying on a folding chair, concentrating on playing with his mobile phone.

"Boss, give me a pack of cigarettes."

"Okay..."

Gao Qiang stood up and saw that the person coming was Li Lin. He immediately smiled and said, "You drank so much last night, why didn't you rest at home for a while?"

"I was home alone with your wife and was afraid you might be worried, so I hurried over to check in with you."

"Why are you worried? It's not like the three of us haven't slept in the same bed before..."

Gao Qiang smiled innocently.

Still so careless. Li Lin couldn't help but laugh.

"Did your wife offend her superiors in the hospital recently?" Li Lin asked straight to the point.

Gao Qiang scratched his head, "No...everything is normal, I haven't heard her mention it."

Working overtime for several days and nights without reason, is this normal?

"I heard from her that she had just worked overtime for two days and now she was forced to work overtime again. How can her body handle it?" Li Lin said solemnly.

Gao Qiang sighed and said helplessly, "What can we do? It doesn't matter if we don't have anyone, but if we don't listen to the leader, won't we be fired?"

"You also know that Lingli's parents begged and pleaded for her to get this job. If she is fired, how will she explain to her family?"

"Besides, what kind of grievances has she not suffered in the hospital over the years? Take the evaluation of professional titles for example. According to her qualifications, she should have been evaluated as a nurse long ago."

"Many people who started two years later than her have been selected, but she still hasn't been selected..."

"Tell me, who can we go to for justice?"

Gao Qiang kept shaking his head helplessly.

"Is there such a thing?" Li Lin was a little surprised.

"During those two years, with your help, our family was able to get by. I thought that it would be my turn to get a professional title, so I never mentioned it to you." Gao Qiang said

"Then have you ever thought about visiting your boss's home to build some connections?" Li Lin asked.

"I went!" Gao Qiang laughed at himself, "When they saw that the gift I gave was worthless, they didn't even let me in..."

Damn! How could I meet such a snobbish leader?

Li Lin couldn't help but feel a little angry.

However, these people are generally small characters with a narrow vision and cannot become big leaders.

Even if you manage to become a higher-ranking official, something bad will happen sooner or later!

"The leader you are talking about is not the smart head nurse, right?"

"Yes, that fat, stupid old woman."

Gao Qiang immediately sighed again, "If only you were still in the city government, how could those people dare not give you face with just one phone call?... Oh, now I really regret not telling you this."

"Okay, let's talk about it later."

"Don't leave tonight, let's drink some more?"

"Not tonight. I have something important to do."

...

6pm, Dongsheng Hotel.

The No. 1 box.

Li Lan sat in the main seat.

Sitting on her right was a tall, square-faced middle-aged man.

The seat on the left was empty, obviously reserved for Li Lin.

There were two other guests sitting on the left and right sides, one of whom was a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and had an elegant temperament.

The other one was a strong young man with dark skin and short hair.

Li Lin pushed the door open and walked in. Everyone's eyes fell on him.

Li Lan stood up and said to Li Lin with a smile, "Please take a seat."

Except for the man sitting in the guest of honor seat, everyone else stood up and greeted him with smiles.

After Li Lin sat down, Li Lan took the lead in introducing the man on his right to him.

"Li Lin, this is Mr. Sun Huaide."

Li Lan then introduced Li Lin to Sun Huaide, "Boss Sun, this is my brother Li Lin."

Li Lin stood up and took the initiative to shake hands with Sun Huaide, "Hello, Mr. Sun."

Sun Huaide stood up, shook Li Lin's hand, and said with a smile, "Hello, I've heard of you for a long time."

Li Lin was surprised. Is he already so famous?

Or had Li Lan already introduced his situation to them?

However, what is most surprising is that Sun Huaide's palms are very strong, and the angular muscles and deep nasolabial folds on his face all indicate that he is a person who is difficult to talk to and has great authority.

From any perspective, he doesn't look like a businessman, but more like an official, and his status is no less than that of Li Lan.

But soon, Li Lin got the answer from Li Lan.

Li Lan briefly introduced, "Mr. Sun was born in the Yanjing compound. He used to work in the Public Security Department of Hanjiang Province, and was promoted to the rank of director... Later, due to various reasons, he gave up his official position and went into business. Now he is considered a wealthy businessman."

So that's it! No wonder this person's temperament is so unpredictable, it turns out he has such a complicated history.

Born in Yanjing, a department-level cadre of the Public Security Department, he gave up his official position to go into business... The more you know about him, the more mysterious he becomes...

"Hahaha, those are all old stories. Now I'm just a businessman running around..." Sun Huaide laughed heartily.

Then he continued, "Xiao Lin, I heard that you are now the head of Weishui Township. Work hard. The worse the conditions in a township, the easier it is to achieve success. You are young and your future is limitless!"

“Thank you Mr. Sun for your encouragement!”

"Since he is Xiaolan's younger brother, he is also my younger brother. From now on, I will call him brother. This way, it will sound more intimate."

"Okay, Brother Sun."

Li Lin was very graceful and had none of the shyness or restraint that comes from a first meeting.

Sun Huaide also admired Li Lin's character and kept nodding and smiling at him.

Then, Sun Huaide said, "Xiao Lan, let me introduce the rest of the people."
