Unfortunately, Zheng Guomin's son Zheng Qiang met Yuan Fangguo at the Normal University. Yuan Fangguo didn't even notice Zheng Qiang driving past him.
At first, he thought that Yuan Fangguo and he were both at the school to pick up girls, but when he asked his acquaintances, he immediately understood that Yuan Fangguo was still a student.
A student dared to fight with me. Zheng Qiang immediately went to his father's office and told Zheng Guomin about the situation.
Zheng Guomin had originally planned a lot of measures to deal with Yuan Fangguo, but when he heard what Zheng Qiang said, he was stunned.
"Dad, he's just a student. We don't have to be afraid of him."
"Nonsense." Zheng Guomin's eyes were wide open, and his eyes were like two sharp lightning bolts, which made Zheng Qiang shudder.
"He is really a student." Zheng Qiang thought his father had misunderstood his identity.
"Have you ever thought that if a student has such ability, doesn't he have a master behind him?" Zheng Guomin sighed and analyzed to his son who only knew how to play with women.
When Zheng Qiang heard this, he didn't understand what was going on at first. But after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly understood. A student could control a motorcycle factory. It seemed that the power behind this was quite great.
"Then those motorcycles he had last year wouldn't even be able to go on the railway?"
"That's because the railway people don't have eyes." Zheng Guomin snorted coldly, "If they had eyes, they would have discovered the problem in time."
Zheng Qiang was a little anxious, "Then what should we do?"
"What should we do? There are no permanent enemies or friends in this world, only permanent interests. We should cooperate with them as much as possible."
"But they sell motorcycles, and we are in the construction business. We have nothing to do with them." Zheng Qiang looked confused.
"It's not related. Can't you find a way? Don't you know those girls? How come you know them all in the end?" Zheng Guomin was furious when he thought about his son liking to play with women. He and his wife were both very traditional people, but who would have thought that he would give birth to a playboy.
After being severely scolded by Zheng Guomin, Zheng Qiang left in disgrace.
…
All the gods were completely bewildered by Yuan Fangguo's identity. Some said he was the son of a high-ranking official, and they methodically found the reason. Others said he was the son of a powerful figure. However, there weren't many powerful figures in the Bashu region, apart from the Liu family. Moreover, the Liu brothers were all very clean and self-disciplined...
In short, no one dared to act rashly without knowing Yuan Fangguo's true identity, otherwise, they would not even know how they died.
Yuan Fangguo had no idea about this. Before the Qingming Festival, Xu Liming suddenly called him.
Xu Liming wanted to go to Jiangnan City to visit the family of a comrade who died on the battlefield. Thinking that Yuan Fangguo was also a flesh-and-blood man, he decided to call him along.
Yuan Fangguo readily agreed to Xu Liming's invitation.
The two of them traveled light and in a simple car, Xu Limin didn't even bring his secretary.
Setting off in the morning, Xu Liming arrived in Jiangnan City around four o'clock in the afternoon.
The comrade's hometown was not easy to find. Although Yuan Fangguo was from Jiangnan City, Jiangnan City covered an area of more than 20,000 square kilometers, which was similar to the land area of a medium-sized European country. In addition, there were many mountains here. Therefore, after arriving, the two did not rush there, but found a hotel to stay.
Yuan Fangguo wanted to book a luxurious room for Xu Liming, but unexpectedly Xu Liming told him that he had already booked two ordinary rooms.
"Uncle Xu, I'm sorry to have cost you money again." Yuan Fangguo said embarrassedly.
"Why are you being so polite to me? You brought me so many preserved meats during the Spring Festival, and I haven't thanked you properly yet. I'll treat you to some hometown food here tonight."
To be honest, although Yuan Fangguo is from Jiangnan City, he is not familiar with Jiangnan City. Before going to college, he only stayed in the county town for three years.
"Uncle Xu, you are taking the initiative now. I should be the one to treat you," said Yuan Fangguo.
Seeing his serious expression, Xu Liming laughed and nodded.
When Xu Liming came from Rongcheng in the morning, he had been sleeping soundly because of working overtime last night. Now he had recovered some energy and started chatting with Yuan Fangguo before the food was served.
Seeing that Yuan Fangguo's business was indeed doing well and had absorbed a lot of laid-off workers into the factory, Xu Liming couldn't help but nodded with a look of appreciation.
However, when talking about the relationship between officials and businessmen in the new era, Xu Liming thought for a while and summed up eight words for Yuan Fangguo.
“Be close to the government and stay away from politics.”
After listening to it, Yuan Fangguo also thought about it carefully, and then nodded involuntarily.
In terms of interest relations, Xu Limin is right. Being close to the "government" means that business activities must be carried out strictly in compliance with national laws and regulations, while staying away from politics means not getting involved in the right and wrong of the political arena to avoid being easily liquidated once the backing falls.
There are not a few such people in history. Yuan Fangguo also knows that as his company grows bigger and stronger, he will inevitably have to deal with the "government". Isn't he already on good terms with the leaders of Jiangliu District?
"Uncle Xu, thank you. I will take care of myself."
Xu Limin nodded. "Business is a battlefield, but so is government. You must be able to distinguish right from wrong. Otherwise, you'll be easily exploited. Especially in a big city like this, where the infighting between people is intense. You need to be more careful in everything you do."
Although Xu Limin didn't point out anything, after hearing it, Yuan Fangguo immediately thought of the story last month about a second-generation official who was said to be looking for investment in Chengdu. At first, no one took him seriously. Once he felt that he was not valued, he immediately brought out his backers and severely punished those who offended him.
This is not the main point. The main point is that it is said that this second-generation official is preparing to find his own agent in Chengdu.
A capable rural kid like him with a poor background could easily become an agent.
…
Actually, they didn't talk much in the restaurant with Xu Liming. After the food was served, they both began to shift the topic from the serious topic to daily life.
After dinner, Yuan Fangguo initially wanted to hail a taxi back to the hotel, but was unexpectedly declined by Xu Liming. Xu Liming had the habit of taking a walk after dinner, and he was also familiar with the roads in Jiangnan City, so he suggested walking about five kilometers back.
Five kilometers is not too far, and it only takes an hour to walk back slowly.
Yuan Fangguo readily agreed.
However, they had walked less than 500 meters when a Passat sedan suddenly stopped in front of them.
