Chapter 890

Hou Guangbi said, "As the saying goes, if you are overly polite to someone, you must want something. What are they doing this for?"

Su Xinghui shook his head. "You're laughing at me, Elder Hou!"

Hou Guangbi looked at Su Xinghui somewhat uncomprehendingly.

Su Xinghui knew that although Hou Guangbi was a commercial tycoon overseas, he didn't quite understand the current situation in the country. How could he know that nowadays, people were fighting for investors in the country?

Su Xinghui didn't know if he should tell Hou Guangbi about this kind of thing; it was really too shameful.

Seeing Su Xinghui's hesitant look, Hou Guangbi smiled. "Mr. Su, feel free to say whatever it is."

Su Xinghui then said, "Mr. Hou, you might not be clear about the current situation in the country. The situation in the country now is different from a few years ago. Now it's GDP-first and economy-led. Therefore, various local governments value investors quite a bit. You should be able to understand this, right?"

Hou Guangbi was not a stupid person; on the contrary, he was a wise old man. As soon as Su Xinghui said this, he naturally understood what was going on. He nodded and smiled. "Then your county government should also hope that we invest in the county?"

Su Xinghui nodded somewhat embarrassedly. "That is the intention."

Hou Guangbi nodded noncommittally. "Let me return to Shangjun County to take a look first. I don't know what Shangjun County has become now."

Hou Dali said, "Then are we going back today?"

Su Xinghui said, "No need, and there's no rush for this one day. It's almost five o'clock now, so let's rest here for one night and return to Shangjun tomorrow."

Hou Guangbi nodded. "This arrangement is very good. Then let's return to Shangjun County tomorrow morning. Tonight, you and Miss Lu should stay at the White Rose Hotel."

Su Xinghui smiled. "Elder Hou, Xiaoya's home is in Jiangcheng. If she doesn't return home at night, it's not very good, so I'll send her back tonight."

Hou Guangbi originally thought Lu Xiaoya was also from Shangjun. Upon hearing she was from Jiangcheng, he nodded in relief. "That's fine. After you send Miss Lu back tonight, come back here to stay. This old man still wants to have a candlelit talk with you."

Su Xinghui nodded happily. "Alright."

Hou Guangbi stood up. "Then let's go down to the restaurant to eat."

Su Xinghui also stood up. "Alright, let's go down."

Everyone stood up together, preparing to go downstairs. At this moment, the door was knocked. Hou Dali was stunned for a moment and went to open the door. Standing outside the door was a middle-aged man of about fifty, and behind him, a group of people were crowded, including Cheng Han and Zhang Chenxi.

A man under forty standing next to Cheng Han said, "Mr. Hou, hello. This is Comrade Ge Honglin, the Vice Mayor of the Jiangcheng Municipal Government. He has taken time out of his busy schedule to pay a visit to Elder Hou. He will also accompany Elder Hou for dinner this afternoon."

Hou Dali said, "Mayor Ge is too polite. Everyone, please come in."

Hou Dali let this group of people in. Hou Guangbi stood up to welcome the guests, and his two sons, as well as Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya, naturally stood up as well.

Ge Honglin was short and fat, bald, with a red nose and a ruddy face, clearly having drunk alcohol at noon. As soon as he entered the room, he saw the white-haired Hou Guangbi and hurriedly walked toward him. "This must be Elder Hou, right?"

Hou Guangbi said, "I am Hou Guangbi, hello Mayor Ge!"

Ge Honglin shook hands with Hou Guangbi, bowing slightly and shaking his hands up and down, appearing very respectful. After shaking hands with Hou Guangbi, he met Hou Guangbi's two sons under Hou Dali's introduction.

At this time, Ge Honglin looked at Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya. He had already heard from Cheng Han that a young man from Shangjun County had come, wanting to pull the Hou family back to Shangjun County. Since the only young man in this room was Su Xinghui, he naturally wouldn't give Su Xinghui any good looks. He looked at Su Xinghui arrogantly and said, "You are Su Xinghui from Shangjun County?" ===== CHAPTER 892 =====
