The mayor naturally received the Hong Kong businessmen who came to invest in Pingjiang with great courtesy, and even specially invited well-known lawyers to come.
“Mrs. Tang, there’s nothing wrong with your contract. It’s a legal contract, and the bank is acting in accordance with the contract. It hasn’t violated the law.” The lawyer shook his head after reviewing the contract.
The person who drafted the contract was an expert in this field; there wasn't a single loophole, and it was completely in accordance with contract law. Even if the mayor wanted to help, he couldn't violate the regulations!
Tang Yufen knew, of course, that there were no loopholes in the contract, and her purpose in coming to the mayor was not to sue Yuwen Feng.
“The contract is indeed fine. Since the other party dared to sign such a contract, they must have made thorough preparations. It’s just that my grandson was young and naive and was deceived. I just want to ask the mayor to help persuade Mr. Yuwen Hua of Shengda Company to see if he can repay the money he owes to the bank. I can’t find Mr. Yuwen Hua.”
Tang Yufen revealed her purpose, looking pleadingly at the mayor.
She had already inquired and learned that the mayor had a relationship with the Yuwen father and son, which was why he had the audacity to come to their door, even if it meant losing face. Compared to money, face was worthless.
The mayor frowned slightly, looking hesitant.
Tang Yufen added, "I know that Mr. Yuwen's son is in a bit of trouble right now. I can help Mr. Yuwen Hua resolve this minor problem. I would appreciate it if the mayor could convey my sincerity to him."
The mayor's expression changed slightly, and he looked at Tang Yufen with surprise.
In fact, he already knew about the feud between Tang Yufen and Sang Huaiyuan's family. He did not comment on right or wrong, but he admired Tang Yufen's methods in making the once famous iron-fisted wife Sheng Xinlan suffer a setback.
Moreover, the mayor and Sang Huaiyuan are not on the same side.
The mayor will retire next year. Although he is reluctant to admit that he is getting old, time waits for no one, and he will have to leave his beloved mayoral seat.
However, there are always countermeasures from above and policies from below. The mayor had already arranged a successor, a vice mayor whom he had personally supported. Once this vice mayor took office, he only needed to point the finger from behind and continue to serve his family.
But plans can't keep up with changes. In the past two years, Sang Huaiyuan has emerged out of nowhere and become the biggest dark horse, catching the mayor off guard and making him even more unwilling to let his years of hard work go to waste.
Before arriving, Tang Yufen had already inquired about the political situation in Pingjiang and had heard about the infighting among these leaders. In fact, the political world, like the business world, is a battlefield without gunpowder, only the political world is more ruthless.
"I had heard so much about the mayor before I came here. Mayor, you have led Pingjiang to economic prosperity and are truly the provider of sustenance for the people of Pingjiang..."
Tang Yufen offered a few flattering remarks. Lacking formal education, she naturally couldn't use flowery or tactful language, speaking rather bluntly. The lawyer next to her got goosebumps listening to her, but the mayor seemed quite pleased, his smile widening considerably.
“I sympathize with Madam Tang’s plight. Here’s what I’ll do: I’ll send someone to look for Yuwen Hua, though whether they’ll be able to find him is uncertain,” the mayor said with a smile.
"Thank you, thank you. Mayor, you took time out of your busy schedule to help me with my problem. You are truly a good leader who is wholeheartedly for the people."
Tang Yufen was overjoyed. Since the mayor had already given his consent, she was sure she could find Yuwen Hua. Once she met Yuwen Hua, she would definitely be able to persuade that old fox to pay up.
Two days later, Tang Yufen received a call from Yuwen Hua, who asked her to meet.
At this time, the scandal of the Global Corporation using live subjects for experiments had become a hot topic. People on the street all had a newspaper in hand, and everyone they met was discussing this shocking incident.
