To be honest, Qin Sheng was a bit like a fox borrowing the tiger's power. Of course, he would not go to his uncle. Even if he did, his uncle might not be willing to help him in this matter.
Fang Jianping would not think about this. He had his own considerations. If it was in the past, he would never say this to Qin Sheng, because Qin Sheng was not qualified to be on the same level as him. Even if he was familiar with Xue Qingyan, so what? After all, they were not friends on the same path.
But now it was different. Qin Sheng had powerful resources behind him. Fang Jianping was ambitious, but sometimes even if he was strong enough, if he did not have enough connections and resources, he might not be able to get promoted.
Qin Sheng's connections might not be useful at the moment. After all, his family's resources in the political and legal circles of the province were already strong enough. But in the future, when he moved up, especially at the critical juncture, Qin Sheng's connections might be useful. Under the premise that he was capable enough, he would need such a key sentence at that time.
Therefore, today, Fang Jianping did not refuse Qin Sheng, but promised to help him. Of course, it must be within a reasonable range. If it was beyond his ability, he naturally did not want to get involved.
In any case, this was a voluntary deal. Fang Jianping might not really treat Qin Sheng as a friend before, but from today on, they were really friends.
After talking about these things, Fang Jianping drove away from the West Lake scenic area. Originally, he wanted to treat Qin Sheng to lunch, but something came up, so he had to leave early. He would make up for this meal later.
Qin Sheng took Yang Daniu and Brother Wu to the nearest Zhiweiguan and had some lunch. After lunch, he called Xue Qingyan and told her about the meeting with Fang Jianping today. He also said that he was surprised by Fang Jianping's attitude today.
Qin Sheng did not understand Fang Jianping, but Xue Qingyan knew Fang Jianping better than anyone. She was not surprised by Fang Jianping's attitude at all. She smiled and said, "This is Fang Jianping's character. He is capable and ambitious, and he knows how to deal with people. He can get to where he is today not only because of his family, but more because of his personal ability. No matter where he works, his leaders and colleagues have a high evaluation of him. He is not too outstanding. On the contrary, he is low-key and pragmatic. He can do everything to the extreme.
Qin Sheng nodded silently and said, "Smart, very smart. But sometimes it's not good to be too smart. Sister, do you think Fang Jianping is worthy of being friends with?"
"Don't put a question mark on him just because of what happened today. On the contrary, people like Fang Jianping are very worthy of deep friendship. Since he already knows your identity, he is very clear about how to deal with you. He also knows how to make steady progress. He will not ask you to return the favor just because he helped you today. He knows when to use this favor, so you can rest assured," Xue Qingyan analyzed sharply.
After Qin Sheng heard this, he pondered for a while and then said, "Since you said so, I won't think too much about it. Let's see how much he can help me this time. Is he really going to help me or is he just saying it?"
"However, Qin Sheng, Fang Jianping's bottom line and principles are very strong. If things are too difficult, you'd better ask me first if it's suitable or not, and then ask him for help."
Qin Sheng was not sure about these now. But Xue Qingyan had known Fang Jianping for so many years and knew him better. So Qin Sheng nodded and said, "Okay, I got it."
After talking about these business, Xue Qingyan suddenly asked like a little girl, "How long will you stay in Hangzhou?"
Qin Sheng did not think too much about it. He thought that Xue Qingyan was just asking. In fact, Xue Qingyan wanted to say that she missed him and wanted to see him. But she definitely could not say such words, so she had to change the way.
"It should be a few more days," Qin Sheng said casually. The Dugu Family had been settled. Next, it was up to Boss Hu.
Xue Qingyan, who was sitting in the office, casually supported her chin with her arm. She pouted and said, "Okay, then be careful in Hangzhou. Call me if anything happens."
Qin Sheng found it funny and said, "Sister, I got it. I'm not a three-year-old kid anymore."
Xue Qingyan covered her mouth and smiled. Sometimes, this man was like a big boy who could not grow up. Sometimes, he was as mature as an old man in his 40s or 50s. But no matter what he looked like, he could not stop her from liking him. She did not know when he had stolen her calm heart.
After hanging up the phone, Xue Qingyan was a little worried. She was thinking about what reason she could use to refuse the dinner at night. It could not be said to be a dinner party. There was a rich bachelor from Beijing, who was also from a big family. Now his business was even more prosperous, so the big boss deliberately joined in the brother's party, wanting her to get to know him. But Xue Qingyan already had someone she liked, so naturally she was very disgusted.
What a headache …
In Hangzhou, after lunch, Qin Sheng went to Boss Hu's training base. Boss Hu asked him to meet there. Qin Sheng was more or less reluctant because he was afraid that the news would be leaked. But Boss Hu said it was okay. Qin Sheng could only let him go. After all, he was asking for help.
Qin Sheng was familiar with Boss Hu's training base. When he had been in Hangzhou, he had been there with Lao Chang. At that time, Lao Chang had fought with Boss Hu's subordinates. Of course, Lao Chang won. After that, Lao Chang often went to Boss Hu's training base to train those bodyguards.
Therefore, compared with Qin Sheng, Lao Chang was more familiar with Boss Hu. The two of them could be considered friends.
Boss Hu's training base could be said to be the largest training base for bodyguards in Zhejiang. Boss Hu's business in this area had already spread across the three provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. It could be seen how powerful Boss Hu was.
After the two cars arrived at the gate of the training base, they went in smoothly after reporting their identities. In the end, they parked in a training hall according to the directions.
Before they walked in, they had already heard talking and laughing inside. Among them, Wei Li's voice was the most obvious. It seemed that Wei Li had arrived earlier than Qin Sheng.
The Wei family had a good relationship with Boss Hu. Wei Li even called Boss Hu uncle. Even the two domineering bodyguards beside Wei Li's father had been selected by Boss Hu. Not to mention that Boss Hu was in charge of all the shopping malls under the Wei family in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. Consequently, the two families had a close relationship.
After Qin Sheng had mentioned Boss Hu, Wei Li had directly said that the two families had a good relationship. He could take the initiative to go to Boss Hu. If necessary, he could also ask his father to act as a go-between. However, Qin Sheng still had to deal with Boss Hu personally.
At the beginning, Qin Sheng was not clear about Wei Li's capability. However, after he got to know more about Wei Li, he felt that Wei Li was not simple at all. It could be said that Wei Li was a powerful ally. At least in the game of chess in Hangzhou, Wei Li could be said to be the most important chess piece.
"Oh, I haven't had a good chat with your father for a long time. Your father is getting farther and farther away. We can only look up to him." There were only a few people in the training hall. Apart from Wei Li and Boss Hu, there were only three top warriors under Boss Hu's command.
Wei Li had gotten used to this kind of teasing a long time ago. He smiled and said, "Uncle Hu, you are too modest. Everyone in Zhejiang knows Uncle Hu's capability. It is just that Uncle Hu is too low-key."
Boss Hu chuckled and said, "My way is different. What can I do if I don't keep a low profile? In the future, I still have to hold on to your father's thigh. I will ask your father to have a good chat someday. I happen to need his help with something." He appreciated Wei Li very much. Like father, like son.
Wei Li took the opportunity and said, "Recently, he has been discussing something in Hong Kong. When he comes back, I will tell him. At that time, I will drink with you."
Boss Hu was very clear about his current status. Although their relationship was not bad, it was not the same as before. He still had to maintain the relationship with the Wei Family. After all, many of his businesses depended on the Wei Family.
Boss Hu laughed out loud and said, "I know that you are a good drinker. Don't run away from me at that time."
Wei Li said casually, "Uncle Hu, I am not that bad when I drink, am I?"
Boss Hu did not say anything more, because at this time, Qin Sheng had already walked into the training hall with his people. Boss Hu looked in Qin Sheng's direction and said gently, "Today's main character is here."
Wei Li also stopped being casual just now. Wei Li had already talked with Boss Hu about those things about Qin Sheng. He thought that Boss Hu should have a clear idea. However, Wei Li was not sure about the final result.
It was not that Boss Hu had to cooperate with Qin Sheng because of his powerful background. Maybe Boss Hu was not willing to get involved in the muddy water. Who knew what unknown risks there would be? At the worst, they could go their own ways and not contact each other. Would Qin Sheng hate Boss Hu because of this?
After Qin Sheng approached, Boss Hu took the initiative to greet him. "Qin Sheng, why didn't I see Lao Chang today? We haven't seen each other for more than half a year. I still want to talk to Lao Chang."
Boss Hu behaved very naturally. It seemed that they had not seen each other for more than half a year. Just now, Qin Sheng was still thinking about how Boss Hu would greet him. It did not occur to him that he would start with Lao Chang. This was not surprising. After all, Lao Chang had more contact with Boss Hu.
After Qin Sheng walked up to Boss Hu, he took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said, "Long time no see, Brother Hu. Lao Chang is still so energetic. Lao Chang has other things to deal with in Shanghai. After finishing them, I will come to Hangzhou to visit you, Brother Hu."
Wei Li said jokingly, "Lao Qin, you are wrong. I call you Uncle Hu. You call me Brother Hu. Aren't you taking advantage of me?"
Qin Sheng smiled and joked in a hurry. "Hahaha, it's different."
They shook hands. This time, the handshake was different from before. In the past, Qin Sheng's posture in front of Boss Hu was very low and respectful. This time, Boss Hu put Qin Sheng on the same level as him, just like how Fang Jianping treated Qin Sheng. They were equals and respected each other very much.
As a result, Qin Sheng's biggest feeling during this period was that this society was so realistic. One's status determined everything.
Boss Hu sighed with emotion as he said, "Alas, it's a bit of a pity. Some of my subordinates are somewhat unconvinced and want to challenge Lao Chang. I can only look for opportunities next time." Boss Hu was quite obsessed with all kinds of martial arts. This was also the reason why he had set the training hall as the meeting place this time.
Qin Sheng remembered that when he had come to the training base for the first time, those people had been unconvinced by Lao Chang and had asked Lao Chang to teach them a lesson. It did not occur to him that after more than half a year, they would be unconvinced again.
Qin Sheng said playfully, "Brother Hu, do you want to fight them again?"
