He knew he had to offer Lu Fan enough benefits to get him to let him go, and that was something that couldn't be satisfied with in a short time.
He still doesn't know what this guy is up to.
As time went by, Lu Fan arrived at the place the other party had agreed upon. It has to be said that this guy was very particular about choosing a location.
From the outside, this restaurant looks like an ordinary place, but once you go inside, you realize that it's a completely different world inside, with many unique features and specifications.
Moreover, as soon as he entered, he noticed that all sorts of specialty dishes were readily available.
This place is like a treasure trove; as long as you dig deeper, you'll find all sorts of things here.
At that moment, Zhang Jun hurriedly came over. Looking at Lu Fan in front of him, the others beside him also came over.
"We've long admired President Lu's reputation, and now that we've met him, his demeanor is truly unique among young people."
"Truly, heroes emerge from among the young. A genius like President Lu is extremely rare in our area!"
These people are all glib and smooth-talking, or rather, it's definitely not something an ordinary person could do to get to where they are.
Or rather, having reached their level, they know perfectly well what they should and shouldn't do.
Looking at the people in front of him, he also looked in the direction of Zhang Jun, wondering to himself, "Is this guy planning to introduce all these people to me?"
He observed that these people didn't seem to have much connection with him, but they all had their own unique insights into various plans.
These departments are also inextricably linked to my future development.
"Mr. Lu, let me introduce you. These are people from the Planning Bureau and the Market Supervision Bureau, and they are old friends of mine!"
They'll give me some face to some extent; they're here today hoping to make friends with you.
"Mr. Lu, please feel free to ask if you need anything. Although we all have a little bit of power."
But a genius like you has gone to great lengths for the development of our entire region.
Many people are eagerly awaiting your next creation, and we will definitely be there to support you as soon as possible!
Upon hearing this, Lu Fan had already formed a clear conclusion in his mind: this kind of person was bribed by the other party, and the purpose was very clear: to use this merit to offset his crimes.
In the brief moment before he spoke, the other person looked at Lu Fan and quickly said something.
"Brother, just tell us what you need to do next. As long as you're in this area, we can guarantee to protect your interests."
After that, the group plotted to get Lu Fan drunk, and they also wanted to know who was backing Lu Fan.
After several rounds of drinks and dishes, Lu Fan was slightly tipsy. Looking at the people in front of him, his speech became somewhat incoherent, but he was still quite self-aware.
One of them, seeing Lu Fan's flushed face, spoke up first.
"Mr. Lu, we've all heard about what's been happening to you lately. Everyone knows that you have a powerful figure helping you behind the scenes."
"It is because of him that you are who you are today. According to our intelligence, this master is extremely powerful."
Hearing this, Lu Fan was slightly taken aback. Although he knew it wasn't a secret, he considered Elder Huang's identity to be the highest secret, and he hadn't told anyone.
Apart from those major families, no one else knew anything about it. All they knew was that Lu Fan's sudden rise to power during this period had changed the entire landscape of Jinghai City.
"You're joking, gentlemen. This is the result of my hard work step by step. Besides, I've only done my bit to get to where things are now."
"It's thanks to everyone's support that I have my current position." Hearing this, the others realized that Lu Fan wasn't drunk at all. They had always wanted the eighth rank, and the people in front of Lu Fan were nothing to them, especially the one behind him.
Because Lu Fan's current status is not enough for them to take him seriously.
One of them pulled Zhang Jun aside, looking at him with some confusion.
"Hey bro, didn't you tell me this guy has a powerful backer? Do you think we have all the time in the world? We squeezed in several meetings just to come here for a meal with you."
Zhang Jun was in a bind. He couldn't get Lu Fan to reveal the truth; Lu Fan's mouth was too tight, and it was impossible to get any information about the person behind him in just a few words.
"Don't tell me now that it's just your guess. Even though this guy is tight-lipped, if he really had someone backing him, would he still come over to have dinner with us? If that person had more power than us, would they be so polite to us?"
In their view, although both sides would give each other face, Lu Fan's actions just now showed that he had never shown any kingly demeanor from beginning to end.
Moreover, what is presented here is simply the situation of an ordinary businessman.
In their view, he was just an ordinary person, or rather, an ordinary person with a certain amount of money.
"This is not just speculation. Do you think the Nangong family will fall into the other side's hands so easily?"
The fact that the Dongfang family is following this person is no simple collaboration; I've heard he's helped the Dongfang family find jobs for quite a few people.
However, none of this could prove Lu Fan's current identity. As locals, they were well aware that Lu Fan and the Nangong family had always maintained a good relationship.
The two cooperated and coordinated with each other quite often, and it would be reasonable for them to help each other under normal circumstances.
However, the people he's with now make him feel that there's more to this than meets the eye.
"We understand what you're saying, but surely he could have accomplished all of this on his own!"
In the short time it took to speak, each of them was filled with anger, and they could no longer tolerate Lu Fan.
Although this guy was polite in every way, it was a complete waste of time.
“Several Lu Fans are invaluable to us; they are truly talented individuals.”
Do you think that one person could have achieved their current status and influence in various aspects solely through their own abilities?
Moreover, his newly established union is constantly attracting new blood from outside, which is a huge goldmine!
