"What are you laughing at?"
Lin Fan was confused.
"Brother Lin, you may not be very familiar with the rules of our system."
Wang Xuan patted him on the shoulder and said, "If officials entertain each other in this place, it would definitely be exceeding the limit and would definitely violate the regulations."
"Even if it was someone higher up, even if it was the municipal party secretary, this would definitely be excessive."
Zhao Hanyu added another sentence.
"That……"
Lin Fan was even more puzzled.
If that’s the case, why would you choose this place for dinner?
"The standards for business entertainment are different."
"Especially businessmen like Mr. Gu, you can't entertain them in a cheap restaurant."
"As long as it doesn't exceed 600 per person, it's fine."
Zhao Hanyu explained with a smile.
"So that's how it is!"
Lin Fan nodded suddenly.
"This is a helpless move."
"Now, whether it's a first-tier city or a poor county like ours, economic development is the top priority."
"If we can convince Mr. Gu to invest here, that would be a great thing."
"Xiao Lin, you have a good relationship with Mr. Gu, so you should help to speak well of him later."
Zhao Hanyu reminded.
"I can only do my best."
Lin Fan smiled but did not agree immediately.
After arriving, Zhao Hanyu waited for Gu Jianghai's car in the parking lot.
After the Cullinan parked, Zhao Hanyu enthusiastically led everyone to the Tianhong Hall in the hotel.
Although the decoration of this hall is old, it is very spacious.
A large table that can seat more than twenty people.
"Mr. Gu, please take a seat."
Zhao Hanyu led him to the guest of honor seat.
"Secretary Zhao, you sit down too."
Gu Jianghai nodded slightly.
"Okay, then I have to accompany Mr. Gu well today."
After saying that, he took the seat of host without hesitation.
The seating arrangement is also very particular. Gu Xinyan sits next to Gu Jianghai, and next to her is Chen Han.
Lin Fan sat in the deputy companion's seat, with Wang Xuan sitting next to him.
Soon, the dishes were served one after another.
Zhao Hanyu held up the cup and said with a smile: "Although today's incident was a misunderstanding, it was an accident that Mr. Gu came here in person.
As the host, I would like to offer a toast to Mr. Gu!"
After saying that, he drank two taels of white wine in one gulp.
"Thank you, Secretary Zhao."
Gu Jianghai nodded and took a sip of wine.
He is in a state of health preservation now and doesn't drink much, so I can only give him a token of my appreciation.
Seeing his actions, a strange look flashed across Zhao Hanyu's eyes.
However, he hid it well and poured another half glass of wine.
"Xiao Lin, I'm sorry for what happened today."
"On behalf of law enforcement, I apologize to you."
After saying that, he tilted his head back and drank half the glass of wine.
"Thank you, Secretary Zhao."
Lin Fan smiled slightly and drank half of it.
Seeing Lin Fan's actions, Zhao Hanyu frowned slightly.
Gu Jianghai is a big entrepreneur, so it is only natural for Zhao Hanyu to toast him.
Lin Fan is just a small doctor. The secretary toasted him with a glass of wine but he only drank half. What does this mean?
But he endured it!
After sitting down, Zhao Hanyu said, "Everyone, pick up your chopsticks and eat!"
After this greeting, everyone started to eat.
"Mr. Gu, this is our specialty, Eight Treasure Duck."
"You are the honored guest, so you must be the first to eat!"
Zhao Hanyu said this while picking up some food for Gu Jianghai.
The service is very thoughtful!
"Secretary Zhao, I can do it myself."
Although Gu Jianghai said this, he still sat firmly on the Diaoyutai.
"Brother Lin, shall we go together?"
Wang Xuan held the cup and said to Lin Fan.
"sure!"
Lin Fan took the initiative to fill the glass and then clinked glasses with him.
Drink it all in one gulp!
Zhao Hanyu saw this scene and the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.
He clinked glasses with him, and Lin Fan only drank half of it.
Wang Xuan clinked glasses with him, but he drank the full glass.
Isn't this looking down on him?
"Mr. Gu, I wonder what your impression of our Kaiming County is?"
Zhao Hanyu asked with a smile.
This is his top priority, so he must take the lead.
“It’s a good impression!”
Gu Jianghai said calmly, "It's not as poor as I imagined."
"Mr. Gu really has good taste!"
"Kaiming County's foundation is not weak. It used to have many stone mines and factories."
"It was only later, due to environmental protection, that the mines were closed, and many factories followed suit, which led to the economy falling behind."
"To put it bluntly, this is because our ancestors were also very wealthy."
Zhao Hanyu sighed when he said this.
"The development of any place must follow the laws of history."
Gu Jianghai said slowly.
"Yes...but it's hard on the local people."
"Many poverty alleviation teams have come from higher authorities, and we've thought of many ways to get rich, but none of them have been very effective."
"I personally feel that the loss of young labor is the key to Kaiming County's decline."
Zhao Hanyu continued.
"I see."
Gu Jianghai responded perfunctorily again.
In fact, he knew very well that Zhao Hanyu had specially invited him to dinner this time for a purpose.
However, he pretended to be ignorant even though he knew the truth, and watched the other party's performance quietly!
