Upon hearing this, Huang Hongsheng and his companions immediately became anxious. This was truly a matter of life and death, and they were also burning with anger.
It's so frustrating, so incredibly frustrating! This is the first time in my life I've been so humiliated, the first time I've ever had to call someone "sir"!
A man can be killed but not humiliated. However, Huang Hongsheng and his group forgot the most basic thing a businessman should have: to stay calm. Getting carried away can lead to fatal mistakes.
Huang Hongsheng and his gang are almost going crazy. The events of yesterday are constantly provoking them. If they had the chance to kill Lu Feng without getting shot, Lu Feng would have died countless times by now.
The group quickly gathered their men and headed towards the county government compound.
Upon learning that Huang Hongsheng and his group had already arrived at the meeting room, County Chief Ye, who was in the middle of a meeting, addressed the group: "President Huang, President Li, and President Chen have arrived. I've already given most of the instructions. To reiterate, this year's plans have changed. We've suddenly become wealthy overnight. We need to have a long-term vision, aim to become one of the top ten counties in the country, learn from Huaxi Village, introduce new industries, and embrace the new era. That's all for now. Let's go and receive them."
County Chief Ye stood up and walked out, followed by two middle-aged men. He turned around, gave a few instructions, and headed towards the conference room.
Pushing open the door, County Chief Ye was taken aback to see that the men still had bruises and swelling on their faces. He said, "Welcome, gentlemen. What happened to your faces?"
"County Chief Ye, please have a seat. It rained last night, and the roads were too slippery. I slipped and fell." Huang Hongsheng smiled and said, "That's not important. I'm here today to discuss cooperation with the county. The signing ceremony is tomorrow. Are you currently interested in signing with any company?"
“Since Mr. Huang asked, I’ll give you the inside scoop. We’ve already signed one company, but I can’t say which one. There’s still one spot left.” County Chief Ye said hesitantly, “To be honest, you are all very outstanding and capable entrepreneurs. Once the county starts construction, it will definitely need a large number of companies to move in. There’s no need for you to rush to do this before the announcement.”
“I understand you’re in a difficult position, so I’ll just ask one question: was the second spot given to Jiafeng Electronics?” Li Dongsheng asked.
"Nothing's decided yet, but dealing with you three is really...difficult." County Chief Ye took out a cigarette from his pocket and placed it on the table, saying, "Have a smoke, everyone."
The conference room door was pushed open, and Boss Niu stepped in, saying, "There aren't three companies here. I'm one too. But we can merge into one and form a joint-stock company, with us as shareholders."
County Chief Ye looked up at Boss Niu and said in a deep voice, "I heard you caused trouble yesterday? Someone died at the dance hall?"
"How could that be? Where did you hear that?" Boss Niu gave a forced smile and sat down, saying, "A relative of mine who I don't see often got into some trouble at the dance hall. The police have already arrested him. People in the county really know how to spread rumors."
County Chief Ye glanced at the quartz clock on the wall. It was already 10:30 in the morning. Why hadn't Lu Feng arrived yet?
His plan was simple: in the next two days, he not only had to win over Lu Feng, but also get Huang Hongsheng, Li Dongsheng, Chen Weirong, and the others to sign separate contracts.
That's right, he wants them all!
“That’s one way, but Mr. Niu, you shouldn’t get involved. We’re all from the county, and Mr. Hao doesn’t get involved in these things,” County Chief Ye said to Mr. Niu.
"That depends on what Boss Niu thinks." Huang Hongsheng had already figured out that County Chief Ye didn't really want Boss Niu involved, but they had already come this far, and the prize was practically in their hands, so who would be willing to give it up?
"Shouldn't locals be given priority? Why are outsiders getting the better treatment?" Boss Niu's eyes widened, and he looked like he was about to explode in anger. He said in a deep voice, "Old Ye, it's really not fair of you to do things this way!"
County Chief Ye didn't want to say any more, lest he accidentally let something slip.
"How did you find out about this?" County Chief Ye suddenly remembered that he hadn't called them yet. He had originally planned to sign Lu Feng's contract in the morning, two other companies' contracts in the afternoon and evening, and one more company's contract the next morning. He didn't expect them to come over.
“Someone called to brag about it.” Chen Weirong chuckled and said, “County Chief Ye, don’t worry about who gets a spot. There’s only one left. It doesn’t matter whether you come in early or late, right? You can get a lot of benefits just from land and projects. We’re just here because we don’t know any leaders. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be dragging our feet in the county.”
"Mr. Chen is right," County Chief Ye had no choice but to nod.
"So, let's be frank. How about we partner up and start another company? The price will definitely be better than Lu Feng's. Let him join later, what do you think?" Chen Weirong offered his proposal.
Things have come to this point, it's all about throwing money at it. When it comes to men, in the end, it's all about who has the most money.
Lu Feng parked his car at the entrance of the county compound, got out and went straight inside. He peered through the glass of the county office, knocked on the glass, and asked, "Where is County Chief Ye?"
A woman in her thirties looked up at Lu Feng, recognized him, and said, "I think he's in the conference room."
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Feng strode towards the conference room. Just as he reached the door, he overheard Chen Weirong threatening to throw money at him. He pushed the door open and said, "You guys are quick, aren't you? You've come here to raid my bottom line?"
The door was suddenly pushed open, startling everyone present. When they saw it was Lu Feng, Boss Niu's face quickly darkened, and he said coldly, "Boss Lu? You're still alive?"
"Thanks to you, he's still breathing. Boss Niu truly lives up to his reputation as the local bigwig who can control everything. He killed someone last night, and he's still sitting here talking like this today," Lu Feng said sarcastically.
