"Oh? I think I understand what you mean!"
Wang Qian said meaningfully, "You want me to bribe you, right?"
"Wang Qian, you..."
Sun Gang stood up abruptly from his chair and waved his hand, "You can leave now. There's no need for us to continue talking. Just follow the rules and regulations from now on."
His son, Sun Tianzhi, had already made his point so clear, yet Wang Qian still asked in this tone, which suggests he wasn't coming with sincerity.
But that makes sense; I was wrong to blame him for being a bit naive earlier.
He should have realized it when Wang Qian threw away the box of cheap candy he brought.
I invited Wang Qian in just now to talk, simply to make things clearer.
result,
Wang Qian remained completely unmoved by reason.
"Okay, then let's follow the rules and regulations!"
Wang Qian stood up and sighed, "Tomorrow I'm going to the county's inspection department to see a college classmate of mine. I'll ask him what kind of rules and regulations prevent me from doing business in the village."
Upon hearing this, Sun Gang's expression changed slightly.
Does the county procuratorate have anyone in contact with them?
Is it true or false?
Sun Gang's eyes flickered uncertainly.
He was able to become the village chief not because of his outstanding abilities, but because he had someone protecting him.
However, they were just people from the village.
If Wang Qian has connections in the county procuratorate, he really needs to think this through.
"Let's stop drinking here for today!"
Seeing the change in Sun Gang's expression, Wang Qian waved his hand, "As for whether you, the village chief, have had your fill of drinking, that's your own business. I have other things to attend to, so I'm sorry I can't keep you company any longer!"
After saying that, he got up and left.
In this era, old problems persist: buying and selling official positions, exchanging power for sex, and corruption have almost become the unspoken rules of society.
However, the more rampant a person is now, the worse they will be in the future.
Because in later generations, the sword of anti-corruption emerged, and from the most important figures to the smallest flies, anyone who had done anything illegal or disorderly was dealt with according to the law without any leniency.
This is also why he resolutely refuses to integrate into this corrupt circle.
Of course, not integrating doesn't mean he can't take advantage of it.
He didn't know anyone at the county-level procuratorate, nor did he have any college classmates.
He said this only to temporarily intimidate Sun Gang and prevent him from making any rash moves.
If Sun Gang discovers he's lying and tries to make things difficult for him, he's not afraid at all.
A village chief doesn't have that much power.
Even if Sun Gang has some power and can cause him some trouble, with his current methods and abilities, no matter how much trouble the other party causes, it won't have much impact on him.
"Wang Qian, wait a minute!"
When Wang Qian arrived at the door, Sun Gang hurriedly ran out, his serious and gloomy demeanor completely changed, replaced by a fawning smile.
"Is there anything else, Village Chief?" Wang Qian asked, turning around.
"It's a misunderstanding! It was all a huge misunderstanding!"
Sun Gang grabbed Wang Qian's hand. "I was just joking with you. Why are you taking it so seriously?"
"A joke?" Wang Qian was a little confused.
Weren't the father and son just taking turns threatening me?
How did it all turn into a misunderstanding and a joke in the blink of an eye?
"Yes, since I invited you here for drinks, you can't leave without even having a drink!"
As he spoke, Sun Gang forcibly dragged Wang Qian into the house.
Then, he instructed his wife, "What are you looking at? The food is getting cold. Hurry up and take it back to heat it up. What if Wang Qian gets an upset stomach?"
"Oh? Oh, okay, I'll heat it up right away!"
Sun Gang's wife belatedly realized what was happening, but quickly responded and went to reheat the dishes.
Wang Qian did not refuse and followed Sun Gang back to the table to sit down. He said with interest, "Village Chief, please speak your mind."
"Hey, what are you talking about? What we're going to talk about next is about drinks."
As he spoke, he poured himself a cup of rice wine and then poured one for Wang Qian. "Oh, Wang Qian, we're all from the same village. We should take care of each other, understand each other, and support each other. Don't you think so?"
"Yes, that makes sense!"
Wang Qian nodded in deep agreement.
"Here, this glass is for you!"
Sun Gang raised his glass and handed it to Wang Qian, saying, "You've really made something of yourself in our village. Your business is growing bigger and bigger, you're making more and more money, and you're even boosting the village's employment rate. You're practically a model of getting rich!"
"Uncle, you flatter me!"
Wang Qian took the cup and said with a forced smile, "I built the factory in the countryside because I really wanted to increase the local employment rate and bring more economic benefits to our village."
He wasn't lying about that.
Whether it's recruiting workers from the village or building factories there, the goal is to lead the entire village to prosperity through his own efforts.
However, how much people can understand and how many will support it depends on their conscience.
If Sun Gang continues to obstruct us, we will not hesitate to retaliate once we find a way to do so.
Of course, if the other party doesn't make things difficult for him, he can ignore whatever shady things the other party has done.
After all, he's just a businessman doing legal business; he can't and doesn't want to worry about so many things.
"Xiao Qian, you're so thoughtful!"
Sun Gang seemed like a different person, his face beaming with smiles. "Our village has produced someone like you who has a business mind and a conscience. It will definitely become a model village in the future."
He paused for a moment, then added, "If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just let me know. As long as it's something I can help you with, I definitely won't refuse!"
