âI think itâs 350,000 yuan per mu?.â Lu Yanmin hesitated for a few seconds before saying,
âBut I canât remember the exact number. Donât hang up yet. Iâll call and ask.â âThank you for your hard work.â
âPresident Lin, youâre being too polite. Youâre doing us a favor. I have to make sure to help you.â
Then, Lu Yanmin took out another phone and called the relevant department leaders.
Lin Yi heard the contents of the conversation clearly.
He could not help but smile, but also sighed. Those who could sit in this position were really smart.
Lu Yanmin was well aware of his relationship with the Liang family and used this approach to express his attitude. It could be considered a textbook example of demonstrating his respect and loyalty.
A few minutes later, Lu Yanmin hung up.
âPresident Lin, Iâve asked the relevant department leaders. With the situation in Dongsan County, the lowest we can give is 290,000 yuan per mu. It canât be any lower.â
âAlright, this price is quite good.â
âIf you really have such thoughts, I can also give you local protection and try my best to keep out other industry competitors,â Lu Yanmin said.
âNo, no, no. Thereâs no need for that. Letâs just follow the normal procedure.â âDonât stand on ceremony with me. This is nothing to me.â Lu Yanmin said. âItâs a little over the line, but itâs not a big deal. Even for other businesses, we can offer these protective policies once you reach a certain level and scale.â âWellâ¦â
Lin Yi smiled bitterly. âThank you.â
âBut then again, you have to be careful when investing in real estate in
Dongsan County. You canât take huge risks.â
âI know what you mean.â
âIâm glad you understand.â
âBy the way, donât tell Liang Ruoxu about this. Letâs keep it between us.â
âOkay, I understand.â
The next morning, Lin Yi went to his office.
He and Li Jinjinâs computers had already been prepared, and a new printer had been installed. The hardware was all set up.
However, Li Qingkai was not in the office. Li Sijin was the only one in the office. She was looking at the computer and frowning, as if she was plotting something.
âWhereâs Brother Li?â Lin Yi asked.
âHe went to a meeting,â Li Sijin said attentively.
âWhat are you up to?â
âIâm thinking about how to allocate the one million yuan that Lingyun Group gave us.â Li Sijin looked at Lin Yi.
âThe funds are still a little tight. Brother Lin, do you think we should target one place or distribute it equally?â
âIf we split it evenly, I donât think we can solve any problems.â
âIâm in a dilemma too,â Li Sijin said.
âIf we only allocate a 200,000 charitable fund to one place, it may solve some problems, but it wonât be sufficient for an even distribution.â
âThen letâs select one location. If others have any objections, well let Brother Li settle the matter.â
Li Shijin burst out laughing. âBrother Lin, youâre so mean.â
Ring ring ring!
Lin Yiâs phone rang at this moment. It was a call from Li Qingkai.
âAre you guys in the office yet?â
âWeâre here.â
âCome to the conference room with Little Li. Havenât you been looking for business recently? Give me an update later.â
âUm⦠sure.â
Lin Yi didnât know what the meeting was about, but he guessed that an outsider had arrived.
âHurry up and get ready. Hurry up.â
âOkay.â
After a simple communication, Lin Yi hung up and said to Li Sijin,
âDonât do anything yet. Brother Li asked us to go to a meeting.â
âA meeting?â Li Sijin asked.
âTodayâs event was the investment promotion meeting with the Chamber of Commerce, wasnât it? Do we need to attend it?â
âAn investment promotion meeting?â Lin Yi paused for a moment. âI havenât heard anything about it. How did it start?â
âIt was indeed quite sudden.â Li Sijin said,
âThe people from Zhonghaiâs Chaoyang Group are here. Itâs that famous real estate company. They took three plots of land from us. When the county found out about this, they were surprised. Theyâre probably in a meeting to talk about this.â
âUmâ¦â
Lin Yi immediately understood what was going on when he heard that it was Chaoyang Group. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
A few days ago, he had just finished talking to Ji Qingyan about this matter. He did not expect her to send someone over so quickly.
âBut they can just talk about this amongst themselves. Why are they asking us to join?â
Li Shijin shrugged. âI donât know. Letâs go over and take a look.â
The two of them tidied up briefly and walked towards the meeting room.
In the conference room, the leaders of the county sat on both sides of the long table.
Chaoyang Group sent a total of four people over.
The leader was Geng Junhui, the vice-president of Chaoyang Group. The rest were three department managers, including Wang Ying.
However, from the very start, Wang Ying was not in the mood to pay attention to the contents of the meeting. She was focused only on Lin Yi.
She hoped that he would come over sooner.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
âCome in.â
There was a knock on the conference room door, and Lin Yi and Li Sijin walked in.
When he saw Wang Ying, Lin Yi was a little surprised. He didnât expect her to come too.
As for the remaining three people, he knew them too. They were all seniors of Chaoyang Group. He knew that they had a lot of authority when he worked there in the past.
At this moment, Li Qingkai stood up and introduced the situation to the two of them. Then, he nodded at each other in a very natural manner.
No one could guess that Lin Yi knew these four people.
Seeing Lin Yi and Li Chajin together, Zhou Fengâs expression was unfriendly as he said,
âLittle Li.â
Li Shijin was about to sit down when she heard Zhou Feng calling her.
âWere you calling me?â
Zhou Feng nodded and pointed at the chair beside him.
âYouâve been temporarily transferred to the development office. Just sit beside me. Lin Yi, please find a chair and sit behind Director Li.â
âHuh?â
Lin Yi was stunned. There were empty seats in the meeting room, so why was he being asked to sit behind?
If he wasnât qualified to sit in the main seat, then Li Sijin wasnât qualified either.
Geng Junhui, who was sitting at the head of the conference room and flipping through the documents, raised his head and glanced at Zhou Feng. His expression was a little cold.
This guy actually didnât let President Lin sit at the table. He was quite bold.
Wang Ying subconsciously glanced at Li Sijin and couldnât help but raise an eyebrow.
The person called Zhou Feng obviously had a grudge against Lin Yi.
The key to the problem might be that girl.
She looked pretty good, but judging from her size, she was only a C-cup. She shouldnât be his type, right?
Li Sijin paused for a moment. She understood what Zhou Feng was asking, but she did not want to do it.
She didnât want to have anything to do with him.
âDirector Zhou, I still have to prepare a report in a bit. Iâll sit here for now.â
With that, Li Sijin found two chairs and sat behind Li Qingkai with Lin Yi.
Seeing Li Sijinâs actions, Zhou Fengâs expression turned cold.
She had actually embarrassed him in front of so many people!
However, he didnât blame Li Sijin but instead put the blame on Lin Yi.
If looks could kill, Lin Yi would have died countless times by now.
