At this moment, Zhang Jianhao strolled to the entrance of the dealership, saw Zhao Daming, and immediately dropped his carefree attitude.
Zhang Cheng instructed, "Jianhao, go and call Qiming and the others. Get ready; we'll be heading back to the county later."
"Alright!" Zhang Jianhao responded and ran off. He felt uncomfortable spending too much time with officials like Zhao Daming.
