Chapter 233: First Arrival at Kaiyuan

"Yeah, I said it," Chen Xiaolong didn't look embarrassed at all, "If I don't say it directly, do you still say that I like the poor living conditions there?

Just say it directly, I don't want to beat around the bush with him.

Otherwise, the favor will all fall on my dad, and what benefits can we get?"

Learned!

Really learned.

Chen Pingan looked at him with some admiration, "You really are... not particular at all!"

Chen Xiaolong smiled, "I learned this from Uncle Wu.

Uncle Wu said that whether it is domestic or foreign, these government officials are actually the same.

It's just that domestic ones generally pay more attention to face.

Foreigners are more direct and save trouble because of different cultures."

His expression was very relaxed, as if these things that gave Chen Pingan a headache were not a big deal at all.

"So you still need to learn more from me. I can't learn the way old men talk in a roundabout way.

Anyway, that's it. Even if I really sit in that position in the future, I won't change."

"Then what do you think will be the benefits for both of us in the future?" Chen Pingan asked with a smile.

Chen Xiaolong shrugged his shoulders, "Who knows now?? Let's wait and see, anyway, it's considered an additional connection, what if he gets promoted in the future?"

Chen Ping'an smiled and nodded in agreement, "So? Go home and prepare your luggage, you go to your father to ask for someone, and then leave the day after tomorrow?"

"I'll go to ask for someone, what about you?"

"Me? I'll go back to reunite with my family, otherwise? There's really nothing in Kaiyuan Town, it's a very poor place, I have to bring more things.

I don't even know if I can get used to the food there."

Chen Ping'an said here, suddenly smiled at Chen Xiaolong and said: "You should like it more, the snacks there are very special."

Chen Xiaolong looked at him with a strange look, "I like to eat all kinds of things, but I won't go to a place specifically for eating.

The priorities are different, okay!"

...

In the evening, Chen Ping'an called his father Chen Shaohua and told him what Chen Shaojie had said today.

After listening to him, Chen Shaohua comforted him, "It's okay. I was there when your uncle and Huo Zhiqiang talked about this.

The Huo family helped to contact the investment promotion meeting later.

Your uncle asked you two to go together, not to let you compete.

He meant to let you two have an understanding of the domestic investment process and some things that need to be paid attention to.

With the Huo family's people there, you won't be cheated when you go."

When Chen Pingan heard this, he suddenly remembered that so many companies in China were deceived to invest, and then they couldn't do what they promised, and finally the companies left a bunch of unfinished buildings and ran away.

"I know, Dad.

I will learn more from Xiaolong, and the rest is still mainly learning."

Chen Shaohua didn't say anything after hearing him say this.

...

Kaiyuan Town, which belongs to Sanshan County, is actually a mountain valley. It's really not that developed in agriculture.

However, the main highlight of the agriculture in this town is actually more than 400 real agricultural drip irrigation greenhouses.

It is said that a big boss from the south came to invest, but later I don't know what happened, all the facilities were not needed, and the boss never came again.

Even the people who stayed behind left.

There are all kinds of rumors in the town. Some say that the boss was cheated by the town government, and some say that the boss died in a car accident in his hometown, so no one cares about the things here.

Anyway, when Chen Pingan and his team arrived, the greenhouses were mainly planted with tomatoes, celery and cucumbers, and more than a dozen of them were used to raise chickens.

All the water sources in the whole town come from groundwater.

There are not many vegetation on the hillsides on both sides, and they look yellow and no different from the ravines in the northwest.

But here, it really belongs to the Central Plains!

Huo Xiulin is a young man who looks about 30 years old. He wears a very ordinary jacket and his leather shoes are covered with a thin layer of dust.

It's just that this layer of dust is more obvious in Chen Xiaolong's eyes.

He is less than 1.8 meters tall and very thin. I don't know if it's congenital malnutrition or something else. Anyway, it can't be because of the poor food here.

As a descendant of the Huo family, he must have no shortage of money.

And no matter where you are, as a rich person, you will not lack food and clothing, it just depends on what you want to eat.

Due to his status and position, Huo Xiulin is unlikely to be too extravagant, but he is also unlikely to be hungry.

Thinking of this, Chen Pingan's mouth curled up slightly, wanting to smile but a little embarrassed.

Before at the train station, he personally held up the sign for the station, on which was written the words of Chen Xiaolong and his party.

After a simple handshake and greeting for less than half a minute, he urged everyone to get on the bus and go to the town government for a discussion.

Now, Chen Pingan and a financial staff member and a lawyer brought by Chen Xiaolong sat on one side with him, and on the other side were Huo Xiulin and several other people.

This made Chen Pingan mutter in his heart.

"This, I'm afraid it's the so-called little devil who is difficult to deal with."

He was more cautious and basically didn't speak, leaving everything to Chen Xiaolong who liked to talk.

Although Huo Xiulin looks skinny, his voice is deep and full of flavor. Chen Pingan always feels that if he doesn't do a voiceover, it would be a waste of his old smoker's voice.

Sure enough, he took out cigarettes from his pocket and started to smoke after sitting down and introducing the leaders present.

Chen Pingan was immediately unhappy.

He doesn't smoke and is sensitive to the smell of cigarettes, but he can only bear it since he is a guest on someone else's territory.

Time passed by, and everyone was talking nonsense.

Even the video files used by the town to show the investment environment and resource endowments were useless in Chen Pingan's eyes.

He also did his homework. Although no one really taught him, what resources are there on the Internet?

Besides, they are not here to make money, but to spend money!

As long as the money is spent, it will be considered as fulfilling the promise made by the Chen family to the Huo family. That's it, nothing complicated.

Everything was done to get Huo Xiulin out of this godforsaken place as soon as possible.

Chen Xiaolong's performance made Chen Pingan realize his own shortcomings.

This guy has a lot of facial expressions.

Smile, concentration, joy and doubt, and give the most appropriate expression feedback at the right time. Chen Pingan looked at the rough guys opposite and nodded with satisfaction.

It's a pity that these locals really don't know their deputy mayor.

They know nothing about the Chen family.

They just think that two rich second-generations have come and are bored to start a business.

Chen Pingan thought he saw everything clearly.

At noon, Huo Xiulin sent someone to take them back to the room of the non-star hotel in the town. After a short rest, the town leaders invited them to dinner at this hotel at noon.

After Chen Xiaolong pulled the only two team members into his room, after exchanging cognition, Chen Pingan finally understood the meaning of the nonsense he talked about with the leaders before.
