Chapter 3782

Luan Sihong opened her watery eyes and said: "Mayor Su, are you really a heart of stone?"

Su Xinghui said: "I can only say that the story you just told is indeed worthy of sympathy, but it doesn't mean that because a story is worthy of sympathy, we should rely on this to violate the rules. Now, bidding is stipulated by law, not something we can decide. We must conduct bidding through fair, open, and just procedures. This is in accordance with the law and also in accordance with reason."

Luan Sihong said: "Then if I can't win the bid, won't the two or three million renovation fees I invested in the municipal government guesthouse go down the drain?"

Su Xinghui said: "Manager Luan, there is one thing I really don't understand. Why do you think you definitely can't win the bid? Reasonably speaking, your conditions are the best among all those who signed up to participate in the bidding. As long as it is under equal conditions, you have the right of first refusal. Don't you even have this confidence?"

Luan Sihong was somewhat speechless. Why didn't she have the confidence to win the bid? Of course, it was because she thought Su Xinghui wouldn't let her win the bid. Moreover, she had some thoughts that couldn't be told to others, which was that she hoped to obtain the management rights of the municipal government guesthouse with a relatively low base price.

If she participated in the public bidding with everyone else, she estimated that the base price for each year would be raised very high, and it was possible that the annual contracting fee would be set at over one million. Compared with her current annual contracting fee of 200,000, this was simply an astronomical price.

Then, if the contracting fee was set at one million a year, would there still be profit? Of course, there would still be profit. Now Luan Sihong could probably earn one million a year, and the economy of Linshan City would definitely get better and better in the future. After all, the municipal government guesthouse was a formal guesthouse operated by the municipal government, and the occupancy rate would definitely not be low, so she would definitely earn more and more money in the future.

However, Luan Sihong knew that contracting the municipal government guesthouse seemed glorious every year, but the expenses were not small. Entertaining those municipal leaders was a not-so-small figure every year. And if she could earn a few hundred thousand more, why not?

So Luan Sihong just hoped to use her relationship with Cao Yuanhao to engage in backroom operations and obtain the management rights of the municipal government guesthouse with a relatively low base price.

Now that Cao Yuanhao had no hope, Luan Sihong went directly to Su Xinghui, hoping to settle Su Xinghui. Settling Su Xinghui was a matter of killing two birds with one stone: it both eliminated Su Xinghui's view of her and allowed her to continue to contract the management rights of the municipal government guesthouse at a relatively low price through backroom operations.

After a long time, Luan Sihong said: "Mayor Su, it's not that I don't have confidence. My starting point is relatively low, so my strength is not as strong as other bidders. I'm afraid I can't compete with them."

Su Xinghui said: "Then I have no way. Our bidding must be fair, open, and just. It is impossible to give you special care because of your past encounters. Being able to let you have priority in obtaining the contracting management rights under equal conditions is already considered very caring for you. So, please understand the work of the municipal government."

Luan Sihong choked with sobs: "Mayor Su, I'm really in a difficult situation. If you don't help me, I might not have the courage to live on."

Su Xinghui said: "I don't think things are that serious yet. Even if you don't obtain the power to continue contracting the management rights of the municipal government guesthouse, the profits you have earned now should be enough for you to live a decent life. As long as you operate legitimate and legal businesses in the future, you don't have to worry about the future. The economy of Linshan City is developing in a good direction, and there are still many opportunities."

Luan Sihong said: "Mayor Su, are you really unwilling to help me?"

Su Xinghui shook his head and said: "I really can't help you with this."

Luan Sihong stood up and put on a posture of being at his disposal, saying: "Mayor Su, as long as you agree to help me, I am willing to repay you in any way!"

Luan Sihong was really beautiful and had the unique charm of a mature woman. When she put on such an alluring posture, the temptation was very great. However, Su Xinghui didn't even blink an eye. He said: "I really can't help you, and you don't need to repay me. You'd better participate in the bidding according to normal procedures."

Luan Sihong tucked her long hair and walked two steps closer to Su Xinghui. Su Xinghui said: "Please don't walk forward anymore."

Luan Sihong smiled slightly: "Am I beautiful? Mayor Su, I heard that you are an excellent painter. Your aesthetics must be very high-level. I believe you will not speak against your conscience."

Su Xinghui nodded and said: "You are indeed very beautiful, but I hope you can be more dignified and self-respecting."

Luan Sihong said: "Mayor Su, you may not know yet, but my level of serving men can be said to be first-class. As long as you agree to help me, I will let you obtain the greatest pleasure in the world."

Su Xinghui shook his head and said: "I have no interest in this, and I cannot do such a thing. So, please go out."

Luan Sihong said: "Mayor Su, I know you may have no interest in me because I am just a broken flower and a willow. But as long as you agree to help me, I can let two eighteen-year-old girls serve you together. They are both virgins, and I have also taught them how to serve men. You will definitely not regret it."

A mocking smile appeared on Su Xinghui's face, and he recited two lines of poetry: "Not knowing the rotten rat has become a delicacy, the phoenix chick still hasn't stopped guessing!"

The two lines of poetry Su Xinghui recited came from Li Shangyin's poem "Anding City Tower," which are the last two lines of the poem.

The allusion of these two lines of poetry comes from "Zhuangzi? Autumn Water":

During the Warring States period, Hui Shi was the prime minister of the Liang State, and Zhuangzi was preparing to visit him. Someone said to Hui Shi that Zhuangzi wanted to come to usurp your prime minister position, so Hui Shi took precautions in every way. After Zhuangzi heard this, he said to Hui Shi: In the south, there is a divine bird called the phoenix chick, which flies from the South Sea to the North Sea. Along the way, it only rests on the phoenix tree, only eats bamboo fruit, and only drinks sweet spring water. An owl had just obtained a dead rat, and seeing the phoenix chick fly by, suspected that it was coming to snatch food, so it raised its head and made an angry "shoo" sound at it.

Now Luan Sihong uses this to seduce Su Xinghui, isn't it equivalent to an owl taking a corrupt rat as a precious thing to seduce Su Xinghui, this phoenix chick?

Luan Sihong's approach will only make Su Xinghui feel ridiculous, so he was inspired and recited these two lines of poetry.

However, how could Luan Sihong understand these two lines of poetry? She had read some books in the past few years, but she still couldn't understand such profound poetry. However, she could also hear Su Xinghui's disdain.

Luan Sihong slowly lifted her skirt, revealing her perfect figure, but Su Xinghui didn't move even an eyebrow.

Luan Sihong said: "Mayor Su, if you don't agree to me, do you believe that I will take off my clothes and then open the door and shout molestation?"
