Chapter 1775
"I'll be back at the municipal government guesthouse in half an hour."
Zhou Andong was silent for a moment, but still agreed; setting aside the loan for now, it was still necessary to maintain a good relationship with the Qin family.
"Good, we'll see you at the municipal government guesthouse."
Qin Hongbo put down the phone and looked at Qin Zhi with a smile, which made the kid feel a chill in his heart.
"No, Third Uncle, why are you looking at me like that?"
Qin Hongbo burst into laughter, looking very happy: "I didn't expect you, kid, to be my lucky star."
Qin Zhi understood immediately and climbed up the pole.
"Third Uncle, then my loan matter, is it no problem now?"
Qin Hongbo said irritably: "Wait until I've met with Zhou Andong before we talk."
Qin Zhi still wanted to say something, but Qin Hongbo waved his hand: "The family doesn't agree with your business with that Shi Mengjiao, and the old man has spoken about severing ties with you; does Zhou Andong know?"
"He knows!" Qin Zhi said honestly: "I told him everything; now no one dares to bring me along to play."
"Isn't that right!" Qin Hongbo said: "Zhou Andong can not care whether your grandfather is happy or not, but why should he offend your grandfather because of you?
Is it just because you were playmates with Jian Qiu when you were young? Or do you think your relationship has reached the point where he can offend anyone for your sake?"
Qin Zhi opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything, because what his Third Uncle said was correct.
To be honest, his relationship with Zhou Andong really wasn't that good; if it weren't for Jian Qiu, the two of them probably wouldn't have had any intersection.
Qin Hongbo stood up, came to Qin Zhi, and patted his shoulder: "Zhou Andong certainly won't do anything illegal, but why he would bring you along to play, and what the invested project is, you have to figure it out.
You can't just close your eyes and throw money into it. That's not a few dollars or tens of dollars, but millions; it's not a game."
Qin Zhi wasn't stupid, just too excited for a moment and hadn't thought of so much.
Now, after his Third Uncle's reminder, he had calmed down.
Just as his Third Uncle said, Zhou Andong wouldn't do anything illegal.
And it was even more impossible for him to cheat him out of a few million, because Zhou Andong really didn't look down on those few million.
But this was an investment after all, so he had to know what the project was, especially to understand why Zhou Andong was bringing him along.
Those fox friends and dog pals of his all knew how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and because they were afraid of Man Man Laoyezi Qin getting angry, they didn't dare bring him along; what kind of person was Zhou Andong, that he would offend the old man at home because of him?
Qin Hongbo checked the time, turned around, and picked up his coat: "Time is about up, let's go."
…………………………
Municipal government guesthouse!
Dong Qiyong, the manager of the Yuxi Real Estate project expansion department, arrived at the Yangcheng municipal government guesthouse with his team.
Originally, to go to Shanghai for business negotiations, at the very least a vice president should have been sent; Dong Qiyong's level was a bit low.
For example, the person in charge of the Yangcheng complex project was Li Ling; she was Gu Qing's chief assistant and belonged to the company's top leadership.
And Zhou Andong letting Liao Ting, who had just become the group's vice president, lead the team to Shanghai—that was no problem.
But Liao Ting had never worked in the real estate industry, so he asked Gu Qing to send someone with rich experience to lead the team and assist.
Thus, Gu Qing sent Dong Qiyong. Originally, he was in charge of that high-end residential project in Jingcheng, so he handed over the work in his hands to someone else.
Li Ling, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a professional suit, looking like a career woman, sat in the rest area of the guesthouse's first-floor lobby.
Her legs were crossed, a magazine was on her lap, and there was a cup of coffee in front of her, with faint heat slowly rising.
After more than a year of training, especially coming to Yangcheng to be in charge of the complex project negotiations, she dealt with big shots every day.
Her whole person had changed greatly, and her aura was very strong; two men with ulterior motives stood not far away whispering for a long time, hesitant, but in the end, they didn't dare to come over.
"Li Zong!" Li Ling's secretary Feng Weiwei walked over quickly: "Manager Dong and the others have arrived."
Li Ling picked up the magazine, put it on the coffee table, and then stood up to look at the entrance.
The guesthouse door was pushed open, and more than ten people walked in; the one at the very front was Dong Qiyong.
"Chief Assistant Li!"
Seeing Li Ling, Dong Qiyong quickened his pace; she was the chairman's relative after all.
Li Ling reached out her hand: "Manager Dong, you've had a hard journey."
"Not hard." Dong Qiyong shook hands with Li Ling.
This time, letting him hand over the high-end residential project in Jingcheng to someone else and following a vice president he hadn't met yet to Shanghai was also a very rare opportunity for him.
Because the Shanghai complex project was much larger in scale than the one in Yangcheng; that vice president he hadn't met yet would definitely return to headquarters to take office after the negotiations were completed; it was impossible for him to only be in charge of that one project in Shanghai—that was his opportunity.
Li Ling said: "The chairman arrived in Yangcheng yesterday, but we haven't had time to meet yet. My negotiations with the Yangcheng side have already entered the final stages; the big framework has already been finalized, and I have handed over the remaining details to the people below to negotiate.
I was thinking of finding the chairman today to report on the work; originally, I was afraid of coming too early and disturbing his rest, but I didn't expect that when I went to find him, he had already left."
Dong Qiyong said with a smile: "So, you haven't met the vice president yet either."
"No!" Li Ling pointed to the sofa: "Sit down and talk."
Feng Weiwei summoned a waiter, ordered another cup of coffee, and then placed it in front of Dong Qiyong.
"The negotiations here are going quite smoothly, right?" Dong Qiyong was a bit thirsty, so he picked up the coffee cup and took a sip.
"Very smooth." Li Ling said: "The preferential policies given to me are very large; tonight I will organize the materials, and you can take a look."
"Good!" Dong Qiyong nodded: "This will be of great help to our negotiations with the Shanghai government."
As the two were talking, the guesthouse door opened, and three men and one woman walked in.
Among them, a young man in a suit saw Li Ling sitting in the lobby rest area at a glance; his eyes lit up, and then he whispered something into the ear of a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man walked over: "Li Zong, hello, sorry to bother you."
Li Ling looked up and didn't recognize him, but still stood up politely and said with a smile.
"Hello, is there something?"
The middle-aged man was none other than Qin Hongbo: "Let me introduce myself, my name is Qin Hongbo, president of the Yangcheng People's Bank."
Li Ling smiled, but felt very helpless inside.
Before this, Qin Hongbo had greeted her through many people, wanting to meet and talk.
But she had politely declined them all, because the company didn't need a loan, and even if it did, it would borrow from its own bank.
But she never dreamed that while she was waiting for Dong Qiyong here and chatting for a while, she would be caught by Qin Hongbo.
