Chapter 130 Business License is Stuck
Ruan Fu waited and waited, and finally Wu Wencai came before it got dark.
The other party no longer had the confidence he had in the morning, but instead looked dusty and his eyes were evasive.
The pack of Dadao cigarettes was also brought back intact.
It was obvious that something was wrong.
Ruan Fu suppressed her inner anxiety and asked, "Brother Wu, what's going on?"
Wu Wencai looked a little embarrassed.
"Today at the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, everything started out fine, but as soon as they saw the restaurant's address and legal person's name, they immediately said they couldn't get a business license. I was thinking of giving them a little gift, but they just gave me the cold shoulder, saying if I continued like that, I'd be trying to bribe a public official and they'd take me to the police station."
Ruan Fu was surprised when she heard this. How could such a thing be possible?
Applying for a business license is a legal and reasonable act. Giving favors is just to get it done faster, so how can it be linked to bribery?
It sounded like she was deliberately making things difficult for him, so she said sternly, "Brother Wu, this isn't normal. You must have found out the reason later. Why don't you tell me about it?"
Wu Wencai is a shrewd man who is used to doing this kind of thing, so how could he not know this truth?
He specifically found an old acquaintance and found out the news.
He hesitated for a moment, "I did ask, but..."
Seeing this, Ruan Fu asked again and again, and the other party reluctantly said a few more words.
What else could it be? It's just that someone is interfering.
Director Wu of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau specifically instructed that once the clerks saw a legal person named Ruan Fu coming to apply for a certificate, they must directly refuse.
This is a deliberate targeting, Ruan Fu frowned.
She couldn't understand it. This was really strange. She had had conflicts with a few people in the city, but never with the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. How could she have offended Director Wu?
Seeing this, Wu Wencai lowered his voice and said, "You don't know this, Director Wu is Hu Xianglian's husband. He is in charge of business licenses. He is holding a grudge."
Ruan Fu understood immediately.
The news of opening a small restaurant reached Hu Xianglian's ears so quickly.
After thinking about it, I just felt that the news was leaked to Old Mrs. Wu when I rented the house.
Hu Xianglian was a cunning person and was worried that she would not have the chance to take revenge. She might have remembered it on the spot, which led to what happened later.
Ruan Fu is very familiar with these disgusting tricks.
He gritted his teeth and said, "We have all the necessary documents. What's their reason for rejecting us?"
Wu Wencai slapped his thigh and said, "Young comrade, you're still too young. Even if all the paperwork is in place, they're the boss and it would only take a word to stop your business license. Why would they even need a reason? Even if you submit the documents, it's not uncommon for them to delay your processing for several months."
How many more months can it be delayed? Every extra day of delay is a huge loss!
Ruan Fu's time was squeezed out from between her teeth and was very precious.
Is it possible that all the money has to be wasted on this business license?
As someone who had experienced this, Wu Wencai kindly advised, "Young comrade, the people should not fight against the government. Otherwise, I think you'd better give up the restaurant. You'll only lose the rent if you quit now. Otherwise, if you really open the restaurant, people will come and cause trouble from time to time, and you'll lose even more."
The more Ruan Fu thought about it, the more she gnashed her teeth in hatred.
The whole family has evil intentions. Instead of using the power they have obtained to help the people, they spend every day thinking about settling personal grudges.
But this time Hu Xianglian really grasped the key.
If the business license is blocked, Zhuangyuan Restaurant cannot open.
I just don't have any idea what to do. I can't just operate without a license, right?
There must be someone who is always paying attention to the movements here. If I dare to do this, I will fall into the other party's trap, and someone will probably arrest me and take me to the police station immediately.
Operating without a license is a serious crime. If someone is even more evil-minded and accuses her of speculation, there is no way Ruan Fu can get away with it.
After thinking clearly about the interests involved, Ruan Fu already had an idea in her mind.
Qin Fang frowned as he heard this. "Isn't this clearly bullying? Is there no other solution?"
Wu Wencai looked at the handsome young man in front of him and sighed, "What else can we do? Otherwise, you can go to Hu Xianglian's house and apologize. If she agrees, maybe we can get the business license tomorrow."
Go and apologize to Hu Xianglian?
Ruan Fu almost laughed out of anger. Isn't that just asking to be insulted?
She would not choose this path, but instead made up her mind to give it a try head-on.
Since Hu Xianglian is determined to make things difficult for me, then let her come and see who will suffer the loss.
After seeing Wu Wencai off, he stuffed two packs of cigarettes into his hands.
Wu Wencai's face was filled with shame, and he quickly refused, "Sister, I haven't done anything for you yet, so I can't accept your things."
"Brother Wu, you ran an errand for me once, so just take it. Otherwise, I won't dare to ask you for help next time."
Ruan Fu's tone was smiling, and she didn't look at all like she was being bullied.
Wu Wencai was a little surprised. Most people would have been scared out of their wits if they encountered such a thing. It was rare to find someone as calm as Ruan Fu.
But what good is being calm? The business license still can't be obtained.
I told you I shouldn't have fallen out with Hu Xianglian. The little girl is too stubborn and doesn't know how to deal with people.
Wu Wencai sighed, "Then I'll help you find some connections and see if there's any hope."
Seeing the man walking away, Ruan Fu turned around, locked the door, and walked back shoulder to shoulder with Qin Fang.
The people around him were silent, but Qin Fang couldn't help himself.
"Afu, what do you think about this?"
Ruan Fu glanced at him and said softly, "Qin Fang, what do you think we should do?"
What to do?
According to Qin Fang's idea, he should directly find the senior leaders through his connections and the problem could be solved quickly.
This is his way of doing things, straight to the point, no nonsense.
After hearing this, Ruan Fu burst out laughing.
"We both have similar ideas. Tomorrow morning I plan to go to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau and put up a big-character poster. I just don't believe it. Could it be that Hu Xianglian is so powerful that no one can stop her?"
Qin Fang nodded. This way of doing things was indeed in line with Afu's personality.
Be brave and resourceful, use courtesy first and then force, and you will definitely make the other party suffer in the end.
Afu handled the situation flawlessly, but Qin Fang felt empty and unhappy inside.
There is no other reason, it’s just that his partner has too little presence.
When an ordinary girl encounters this kind of thing, her first reaction is to ask her partner for help.
Why does this girl of mine always think about solving problems on her own when she encounters them?
If I hadn't happened to run into them today, I'm afraid Afu wouldn't have mentioned it to me...
Qin Fang admires Afu's independence, but at the same time he hopes she can be less independent.
When you encounter problems, you can rely on yourself a little more.
"Afu, I can actually help you solve this problem. You just need to tell me, I...I am willing."
It was the first time Qin Fang said these corny words, so he couldn't help but stutter a little.
He was even a little frustrated. He had already expressed his true feelings to Afu, but she still seemed unwilling to rely on him.
Love can make people narrow-minded, and Ruan Fu immediately guessed what the other person was thinking.
Smiling, she said, "Of course I need your help. I can't post the posters by myself. You have to accompany me."
Qin Fang changed his previous frustration and was instantly overjoyed. "Okay, I'll go with you."
