Chapter 655: Six hundred fifty-two people hold the same position!

Gu Chen was taken aback upon hearing this, he had not expected that he would actually support his project.

Anyone with a slight vision for the future could see that this project was indeed a big piece of cake.

He believed that with He Jin’s years of experience in society, he should have the necessary expertise.

And yet, knowing that there was profit to be made, he still wanted to offer it to himself.

What was this all about? Could it be that he wanted to take this opportunity to express his gratitude to him?

Gu Chen did not ask further, but this seemed to be the unspoken understanding of adults.

"The only question is, Mr. Gu, do you still have the time to travel between these two cities now?" Support was support, but Xiao Jing was still cautious in questioning Gu Chen at this time.

Once this project begins, both the manpower and financial investment required would be no small sum.

And the energy and cost that Gu Chen had to commit would certainly be significant.

Ping’an Real Estate was in the middle of city redevelopment there, did he still have time to come up to this mountain now?

"Regarding this matter, I am still quite confident," Gu Chen replied without hesitation at this time, feeling that any hesitation would mean distrust in himself.

Or rather, it would be doubting the experience he had accrued from living two lifetimes.

This operation was not complicated but sounded a bit complex.

"Good, since Mr. Gu is willing to give it a try, then I am also willing to support it. If there is a time when Mr. Gu is available, we could call the person in charge over there and have a good chat together," He Jin said to Gu Chen.

Upon hearing his words, Gu Chen knew this further confirmed a previous guess of his.

The He Jin before him was definitely not a small player.

In society, he certainly belonged to the high status.

To be able to casually invite the person in charge to come over, that kind of influence was not something an ordinary person could possess.

If he was only a minor influence locally, then he wouldn’t have made such definitive promises when he spoke.

He didn’t even send someone to make a phone call to ask; instead, he directly told Gu Chen to get the person over to chat.

What did this mean? There were only two possibilities.

The first was that He Jin knew the other party would definitely not refuse his invitation.

And the second possibility was different, that He Jin was posturing at the banquet, insisting on something he was not certain about to Gu Chen.

Of course, Gu Chen naturally believed that He Jin belonged to the former category.

Looking at Xiao Jing’s mature and composed appearance, it was unlikely he would do something like the latter.

"Brother, you must give a lot of support to Mr. Gu’s work in our locality," He Jingmei also said to He Jin at this time.

"Of course, no matter how difficult this project is to unfold, I will do my best to strive for it," He Jin nodded, his face extremely calm, as if he did not take the matter too seriously.

Of course, what Gu Chen really wanted to say was that He Jin was extremely confident.

For some reason, Gu Chen even felt like he saw a bit of Wei Tianfu’s shadow in him.

"I wonder, Brother Jin, what work do you do in our locality?" he asked He Jin directly, opting for a blunt approach.

Too much speculation was meaningless and could easily lead to mistakes, so it was better to just ask directly and make it clear.

"My work in our locality mainly involves being responsible for, everything!" He Jin said to Gu Chen.

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen immediately understood what it meant.

The statement was very clear; it was outright telling Gu Chen that he was the top person in the area.

Everything was as Gu Chen had guessed earlier; the He Jin before him was of the same stature as Wei Tianfu.

"I see, that’s unexpected. If I had known this earlier, I should have prepared some small gifts before coming," Gu Chen received very politely.

"No need for that. This work is all about serving the common people.

It’s just about working hard to make this city better," He Jin said to Gu Chen humbly.

"By the way, I forgot to ask Old Master Wei earlier. What is Brother Wei up to these days?" he asked Gu Chen curiously.

After hearing this, Gu Chen hesitated slightly, but soon understood who he was referring to as Brother Wei.

Who else could it be but Wei Tianfu?

"Tian Fu is in charge of everything in Chuan City," he said.

As he finished speaking, Gu Chen saw a flicker of bewilderment on He Jin’s face that quickly turned to shock.

"You mean?" he asked Gu Chen.

Gu Chen almost instantly realized what his question meant.

"Yes, that’s right, Tian Fu’s work is the same as yours," he said.

After saying this, he saw disbelief on He Jin’s face.

Although their duties and social statuses were the same, He Jin truly had no idea.

The only reason he knew Gu Chen was from seeing him briefly on TV once before.

He didn’t inquire further about the more detailed matters.

After all, the distance between the two cities was vast; it would take more than ten hours to drive back and forth.

With so many cities along the way, it was countless, and He Jin wouldn’t specifically remember a leader from such a distant city.

"Ah, I did not expect this. It turns out to be so close at hand, yet I have been oblivious for so long," he said to Gu Chen.

"If there is time, we can all gather," Gu Chen said proactively at this moment, as he could truly rally this banquet.

Not to mention, with the relationship between the two elder gentlemen, such things were all too common.

"I will definitely visit in person when I have the chance," he assured Gu Chen.

It was apparent that the two had a good relationship, obviously having known each other from their childhoods.

"At that time, we can all come together and have a good talk, and perhaps we can create even more partnership opportunities," Xiao Jing said.

After he finished speaking, He Jingmei immediately said, "Brother, can’t your mind be about something other than business for once? Today we organized this meal to properly thank Gu Chen, not to talk business."

Upon hearing this, He Jin could only laugh silently, then quickly nodded.

"Right, right, today you, Mr. Gu, are the main character," he said hastily.
