Chapter 389: Chapter 389 First Meeting

Qi Shanghai looked at him and said in a deep voice, "Tell me about it."

"This Mayor Zhang, he is very honest and lives a simple life, only eating at small roadside restaurants and staying in small hotels. He never accepts any invitations, from anyone, and doesn’t drink or smoke. He is truly a good man and very filial!" The subordinate recalled.

Qi Shuzhu impatiently said, "Hurry up and get to the point, stop dragging this out!"

"Let me think for a moment. Mayor Zhang didn’t have a father growing up; his mother raised him alone. He takes filial piety very seriously. In recent years, his mother’s health hasn’t been good, so Mayor Zhang often goes to the hospital, and his reputation is quite good!"

Chen Dashan now had a bit of understanding about Zhang Tao. He was very filial, and his mother had some health issues. If it wasn’t some incurable disease, perhaps he could help and cure his mother. No matter how the other party felt, they would be grateful to him.

"Alright, tomorrow we will go see Mayor Zhang and hear what he has to say," Chen Dashan said solemnly.

The most important thing was to see the other party’s attitude. If his attitude was good, then everything could be negotiated. But if his attitude was bad, even curing his disease would be a waste of effort.

Qi Shanghai looked at the others, "Does anyone else know anything?"

The others looked at each other, and only one person weakly raised his hand and said, "President Qi, I know some things, but I don’t know if they will be useful."

"Speak."

"Recently, Hengshui City has been promoting investment and is placing significant emphasis on foreign companies. So, what do you think?" The employee’s meaning was clear: if they could secure some foreign businesses, their chances of success would increase greatly.

But Chen Dashan wouldn’t deal with foreign businesses.

"Alright, I understand. You all can leave now," Qi Shanghai instructed.

Everyone responded with a "yes" and respectfully left.

"Dashan, what do you think about that? Should you consider foreign businesses? I know some overseas partners, and if you want to pursue this, I can help you make some contacts," Qi Shanghai suggested.

Chen Dashan waved his hand, "There’s no need for that. I won’t deal with foreign businesses. Since I chose to acquire the land, I will establish my own enterprise. If I dealt with foreign businesses, there would be no need for me to acquire the land."

Qi Shanghai nodded in understanding.

"Don’t worry, uncle. I’ve already thanked you a lot. I will keep finding ways here," Chen Dashan said with a laissez-faire attitude.

It was the next day, and Chen Dashan drove while Qi Shuzhu and the old man sat in the back. This time, Qi Shanghai did not come along.

"Dashan, I will introduce you and set up the meeting. After that, I might not be able to help much," the old man said.

He usually didn’t have much contact with Zhang Tao, and this sudden call was like stoking a cold furnace. Moreover, it wouldn’t be proper for someone of his status to say too much.

Chen Dashan nodded in understanding, "I know, grandpa. It’s alright, I understand. I’m already very grateful that you came along."

The old man laughed, feeling very satisfied with Chen Dashan. Capable and pleasant to talk to, who wouldn’t like such a young man!

"Dashan, don’t blame me for being nosy, but you should learn more about your competitors. Know yourself and your enemies, and you won’t lose a hundred battles," the old man advised.

Chen Dashan naturally understood the old man’s intentions, "I know. I have someone watching the Zhao Family, and my people are on the inside too. I understand this clearly."

The old man nodded, increasingly satisfied with Chen Dashan.

At one o’clock in the afternoon, they arrived at the city government building. Hengshui City’s economy was quite good, so the city government building was also very grand.

At the entrance, only government vehicles were coming and going.

Chen Dashan checked his watch, "There is still an hour before the scheduled time. What do you think?"

The old man opened the car door, "It’s alright, let’s wait inside. No matter what, I still have some status in Hengshui City, and some people here will give me face."

Many staff members naturally recognized the old man. In Hengshui City, he was somewhat of a notable figure.

The three sat at the entrance waiting, when suddenly, three silhouettes approached. Seeing them, Chen Dashan frowned tightly.

"The competitors have arrived."

It was Qin Lan, Li Mo, and Kui Sandi.

Qin Lan glared at Chen Dashan with hatred in her eyes. It was this man who put her partner in jail and caused their group immense losses.

Her hatred for Chen Dashan was extreme.

Qin Lan was just about to step forward when Li Mo grabbed her arm and said sternly, "President Qin, don’t act rashly. Although my status is extraordinary, even our senior martial brother wasn’t his match, let alone us. We should outwit him!"

Heeding Li Mo’s advice, Qin Lan huffed coldly.

She sat in front of Chen Dashan with her legs crossed, her skirt falling down and revealing everything underneath.

Qi Shuzhu glanced and mocked, "An old person wearing cartoon underwear. I don’t know if she’s trying to act cute or seduce young men."

"What did you say!" Qin Lan hated it when people mentioned her age, naturally becoming very angry.

"You know exactly what I mean. Why don’t you look at yourself and see who you are trying to seduce!" Qi Shuzhu’s words were sharp.

Qin Lan was about to burst into anger when Li Mo grabbed her hand and smiled, "You must be Miss Qi. Truly, you have an air of a distinguished lady. People often say the eldest daughter of the Qi Family is arrogant and uncultured, and seeing you today, it’s indeed so. The man beside you must be the old Mr. Qi, right?"

Li Mo smiled at the old man. In investigating Chen Dashan, he naturally found out about everyone around him.

"The old man seems to have gone through a lot. Ordinarily, his children should be well-educated, right? How come Miss Qi is like this? Could she not be his biological child? Or is it that Miss Qi is naturally this way?" Li Mo laughed.

Qi Shuzhu’s face turned pale with rage. He was calling her uncultured.

"Who do you think you are to talk to me this way!" Qi Shuzhu fumed with rage.

Chen Dashan shook his head at Qi Shuzhu, "Li Mo, right?"

"Unexpectedly, Mr. Chen knows my name. It’s an honor for me."

"Don’t be so polite. As the Zhao Family’s chief strategist, how could I not know your name? I have long heard of it, but this is the first time meeting you. How is your senior brother Wang Yitian’s injury?" Chen Dashan sneered.

Li Mo’s eyes sharpened, a hint of danger flickered in them.

With his intelligence, he could naturally understand the meaning behind Chen Dashan’s words. This was a threat.
