Chapter 4648

"Alright, you go back first. There's nothing for you to do here. Go do your work!" Wu Min looked up and saw Zhao Desan still standing there, so she softened her tone and said with a frown.

"Okay." Zhao Desan knew that he couldn't help much by staying here, so he nodded and turned to leave Wu Min's office.

After Zhao Desan left, Wu Min sat in the office with a heavy expression and pondered for a long time. Suddenly, she remembered something, picked up her phone, and made a call, arranging for someone to investigate this matter.

On the phone, Wu Min said with a serious tone, "It's not doing your best, but you must investigate this matter clearly!"

"Mm, I know. Secretary Wu, don't worry, I will definitely do my best." The other party answered solemnly.

After finishing this call, Wu Min carefully pondered this matter in her heart, always feeling that this matter was a bit strange. When Serena came to the district for inspection, listening to her tone, she was very interested in the investment environment and rich traditional Chinese medicine resources here. How could she change her mind after just a few days? This was too puzzling. Who was this 'Cheng Yaojin' who appeared halfway? Everything would have to wait until the person who answered the phone just now replied.

The person who handled this matter did not fail the mission. After one day, he called back. On the phone, he told Wu Min the news he had found out. This news shocked all the leaders of the District Party Committee and District Government, including Wu Min. This 'Cheng Yaojin' who appeared halfway was actually another prefecture-level city in Hexi Province, Baoping City.

Hearing this news, Wu Min couldn't believe her ears and shouted on the phone, "Impossible! Did you get it wrong? What advantages does Baoping City have compared to our Xijing?"

"Because the leaders of Baoping City promised to waive all land acquisition fees needed for the Kaide Group to invest and build a factory in Baoping City, and promised to waive taxes for three years."

Wu Min knew that Baoping City was located in the hinterland of the Qinling Mountains, 200 kilometers west of Xijing. The whole city was oriented from east to west, the area was limited, the mountains were big and the gullies were deep, and the traffic was extremely inconvenient. Moreover, traditional Chinese medicine was rarely planted in the agricultural industry. Wu Min really couldn't understand why the Kaide Group would go to that place to invest? Could it be that Serena was crazy?

"By the way, Serena also said that if Chanba District could offer the same preferential conditions, they would still be very happy to come and invest and cooperate." The person on the phone added when he heard Wu Min not speaking.

"Alright, I know." Wu Min said.

"Secretary Wu, don't be discouraged. If it really doesn't work, we can continue to attract investment. The Municipal Party Committee still supports our district's investment attraction. I don't believe that our 'wutong tree' cannot attract a 'golden phoenix'." The person on the phone said.

"I know, goodbye." Wu Min hung up the phone, sat at the desk, and thought blankly for a while, then called Zhao Desan to tell him this news.

"What? They are planning to go to Baoping City to invest?" Getting this news, Zhao Desan also felt extremely surprised, "Baoping City is so remote, how can it have a better geographical location than ours?"

"The policy given by Baoping City is much more generous than ours. Those Hong Kong businessmen come to the mainland to invest, actually looking at the preferential policies of the mainland. Serena might have considered this point before making such a decision." Wu Min said while thinking.

"What preferential policies do they have?" Zhao Desan asked with great interest.

"Waive land fees, waive taxes for three years." Wu Min answered.

Zhao Desan didn't know much about the specific work of investment attraction, but he knew that just for the land acquisition fee, it would be difficult for the district to agree. After all, in the current urbanization process, land is a very important source of local fiscal revenue, especially since the district's fiscal revenue is meager and there are not many large taxpayers. It is impossible to give a large piece of land to an enterprise for free.

Hearing Zhao Desan silent on the other end of the phone, Wu Min said somewhat irritably, "Alright, you go do your work, I'll think of another way." As she spoke, Wu Min hung up the phone.

After getting this news from Wu Min, Zhao Desan also felt sorry for Wu Min. He knew very well the importance of this investment attraction to Sister Wu. If they could attract such a large enterprise, it would undoubtedly be a great boost to Wu Min's official career. Seeing the golden phoenix that was about to fly onto the branch fly away, Sister Wu must be extremely disappointed. Zhao Desan thought so, and he didn't know what the specific situation was, and didn't know how to help Sister Wu.

Got it! After pondering for more than half an hour, Zhao Desan suddenly thought of someone, Zhu Xiufang from the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. Wasn't her husband, Li Qike, the Chairman of the Baoping Municipal CPPCC before? Perhaps he had a certain say in this matter and could intercede for Chanba District, letting Baoping City give up this investment attraction. Although Zhao Desan knew that it would be very difficult to let Baoping City give up such a large enterprise, one only knows if something is possible after trying.

Thinking this way, Zhao Desan picked up his phone and dialed Zhu Xiufang. Fortunately, the call was connected quickly, and Zhu Xiufang's beautiful voice came through: "Comrade Xiao Zhao, why did you think of calling me?"

"Hehe, Sister Zhu, how have you been lately? Are you okay?" Zhao Desan's opening remark was as full of caring sentiment as ever.

Zhu Xiufang smiled gently and said, "I'm fine, how about you?"

"I'm also fine." Zhao Desan said with a chuckle.

Zhu Xiufang was also a person in the system and understood the truth that 'one does not visit a temple without a reason'. She hadn't been in contact with Zhao Desan for a while, and today he suddenly called. It was definitely not to say a few polite words of concern, so she asked with a chuckle, "Comrade Xiao Zhao, tell me, is there something you need me for by calling?"

"Sister Zhu is really smart, haha." Zhao Desan said with a laugh.

"Alright, what is it? Don't beat around the bush, just say it." Zhu Xiufang smiled and said.

"How about this, Sister Zhu, if it's convenient for you, let's meet and talk in detail. What do you think?" Zhao Desan said with a smile. He really wanted to change his taste. Since there was something to find Zhu Xiufang for, it would be better to meet and taste a different flavor.

The beginning of Zhu Xiufang's intimate contact with Zhao Desan stemmed from her husband Li Qike working in Baoping City, which made her feel somewhat empty and lonely. She wanted to find someone to vent. Although Li Qike had now returned to Xijing as the Vice Chairman of the Xijing Municipal CPPCC, the marital life between the two had not improved because of the distance. Li Qike was still as usual, attending social engagements every night, and almost every time he returned home drunk. Not to mention letting him fulfill his husband's duties in bed, even if Zhu Xiufang put on the sexy lingerie she specially bought online to stimulate and tease him, Li Qike, drunk, had no reaction. The 'marital life' between the two was almost dead in name only. As a woman at the age when her physiological needs were like a wolf or a tiger, Zhu Xiufang lay on the bed every night, looking at Li Qike sleeping soundly beside her, but thinking of Zhao Desan, especially the feeling of being on the verge of death and immortality when doing that with him, that kind of happiness like falling from the clouds, made her unable to forget.

Today, she suddenly received Zhao Desan's call and heard his idea of meeting. Zhu Xiufang naturally couldn't refuse, but to maintain her decency, she still pretended to consider it for a long time on the phone before reluctantly agreeing: "Alright then, tell me, where shall we meet?"

Zhao Desan said with a smile, "How about I treat Sister Zhu to a meal?"

"A meal? I'm not interested." Zhu Xiufang agreed to meet Zhao Desan, but it wasn't just for a simple meal. A forty-year-old woman, not a twenty-year-old girl, had a very clear idea: she wanted to experience that happiness that made her drunk and dreaming of death from Zhao Desan again.

"Then where does Sister Zhu want to meet?" Zhao Desan seemed to have vaguely understood Zhu Xiufang's thoughts and asked her with a grin, handing the initiative to her.

Zhu Xiufang thought for a while and said politely, "Let's find a quieter place!"

"A quieter place? How about a coffee shop? A teahouse?" Zhao Desan wanted to test out Zhu Xiufang's real thoughts bit by bit.

Sure enough, Zhu Xiufang's answer was negative. She said somewhat distractedly on the phone, "I don't want to go to those places either."

"If you don't want to go to teahouses or coffee shops, then there's only... only going to your place." Zhao Desan said with a chuckle.

Zhu Xiufang said, "My place won't work. Old Li is working in Xijing now. If he discovers our secret, he won't spare you."

"Then where should we go?" Zhao Desan asked deliberately.

"How about... opening a room?" Zhu Xiufang pretended to be thoughtful and put forward her own idea.

Hehe, isn't this exactly what Zhao Desan was looking forward to? He naturally agreed with a smile without hesitation: "Okay, then I'll go to the city right away."

Zhu Xiufang said, "It will take you a while to get to the city. How about this, I'll open a room and wait for you first. Once I've opened the room, I'll send you a message."

"Okay, no problem." Zhao Desan said with a grin. ===== CHAPTER 4649 =====
