Lin Lewen's face was filled with worry as he whispered, "County Head, you're not really planning to lend him a million, are you?"
"Of course, is there a need to ask?"
Lin Lewen sighed and whispered, "We've only known him for half a day and we don't know anything about him. Yet, you want to lend him a million? What if he takes the money and runs away? "
Bo Yubing rebuked, "How is that possible?! He's not a scammer! Besides, he was introduced to me by Li Rui. Would Li Rui lie to me? How would I not know anything about him? His identity card even states where he's from! He's the vice president of the famous Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce! Just based on his name, he's worth a million! "
Lin Lewen was speechless as he looked at Zhang Dalei.
Zhang Dalei frowned, "County Head, I also think that a million is too much. It's best not to lend it out so easily."
Bo Yubing retorted, "How can it be lent out so easily? Didn't you see that he didn't want to lend it to us? We were the ones who insisted. If I don't lend it to him, he will immediately stop his investigation in our county. That kind of running away is what I'm afraid of. You don't have to say anything. I'll get the Finance Bureau to transfer the money to his daughter. "
Lin Lewen and Zhang Dalei were both shocked. The two of them looked at each other and whispered in disbelief, "What? County Head, you want the Finance Bureau to lend him money? "The other whispered," Don't, County Head. Public funds can't be used so easily! "
Bo Yubing coldly glanced at them and rebuked, "Are you the county head or am I the county head?" She snorted and said, "Right now, we're receiving a very important investor. It's considered official business, so why can't the Finance Bureau lend him money? Besides, it's not like he won't return it. Don't forget, he's the vice president of the Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce! " After she finished speaking, she ignored the two of them and walked back to Liao Zhicheng with a smile, "Mr. Liao, I'll read you my phone number. Remember it …"
Lin Lewen and Zhang Dalei exchanged glances and shook their heads at the same time. Sigh, there was nothing they could do about such a domineering and dictatorial county head.
Soon, Bo Yubing got the bank card number of Liao Zhicheng's daughter, Liao Ling. She asked Zhang Dalei to contact the county finance director, Xu Aimin, and ordered Xu Aimin to send someone to transfer one million to Liao Ling's bank card as soon as possible. How could Xu Aimin dare to disobey the boss? He immediately agreed and instructed the accountant to go to the bank to transfer money to Liao Ling.
Liao Zhicheng also wrote an IOU for Bo Yubing and put his thumbprint on it. However, his handwriting was very sloppy, like a dozen spiders crawling on the paper. It was completely unbefitting of his position and title as the vice president. Bo Yubing did not care about this. Instead, she felt that he was a real entrepreneur. She believed that a real entrepreneur would put all his efforts into running the company. How could he have the leisure and time to practice calligraphy? Calligraphers were the ones with good handwriting, but how many calligraphers were rich? Why would they invest in the county?
Vicky had sharp eyes. She noticed that Lin Lewen and Zhang Dalei were looking at her and Liao Zhicheng with suspicion. She walked up to them and said, "What? Are you still doubting our identity at this point? Are you worried that our Mr. Liao will run away after borrowing the money? Hmph, I'll show you what it means to measure the heart of a gentleman with one's own yardstick! " After saying that, he took out his phone and found a landline number in Zhejiang Province from his call history. He showed it to the two of them and said, "This is the landline of the office of the Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce Association. You can call and ask if our President Liao is the vice president of the association."
Lin Lewen and Zhang Dalei were embarrassed. Zhang Dalei smiled and said, "No, no. How would we dare to doubt Mr. Liao's identity?"
Lin Lewen also smiled and said, "Yeah, we don't doubt him at all. Miss Vicky, you're overthinking." As he spoke, he silently memorized the phone number.
Before walking out of the scenic area, Lin Lewen pretended to go to the washroom and ran to the men's washroom. He took out his phone and called the number to ask if Liao Zhicheng was the vice president of the association. The person who answered the phone was a man. His tone wasn't polite, and he spoke in Mandarin with a southern accent. After hearing his question, the man confirmed it and asked him what was the matter. After Lin Lewen confirmed Liao Zhicheng's identity, he no longer had any doubts. He said that it was fine and hung up the phone.
In the afternoon, Bo Yubing treated Liao Zhicheng and Vicky to a restaurant by the river outside the scenic area. Since they still had to continue the inspection in the afternoon, they didn't order any drinks. As for the dishes, they were all local vegetables from Jiupo Town. There were stir-fried river prawns with chives, roasted hare, and eggs from a toon stall … all kinds of delicacies filled the table.
Liao Zhicheng wasn't picky about it, but Vicky's expression was ugly. She tasted everything and said that it was disgusting. Bo Yubing and the other leaders of the county were embarrassed.
In the middle of the meal, Bo Yubing received a call from Li Rui. Li Rui had finished his work in Dalifang Village. According to Bo Yubing's instructions, he had to rush over in the afternoon to accompany Liao Zhicheng and Zhang Dalei on the inspection. He was calling her to confirm their location. Bo Yubing told him to come to Jiupo Town first, so Li Rui rushed over on his own.
At 2: 30 in the afternoon, accompanied by Bo Yubing and Li Rui, Liao Zhicheng visited another scenic spot, the "Three Saints Temple", not far from the Fairy Cave scenic spot.
The "Three Saints Temple" was located deep in the mountains southwest of Jiupo Town. At the entrance of the valley was the Fairy River. The temple worshipped the three ancient local mountain gods. Since the temple was old, and the story of the three saints was passed down from generation to generation, it was very popular. Coupled with the beautiful scenery along the way, the county developed it and added a few artificial scenic spots. Including the core of the "Three Saints Temple", it created a 3A scenic spot. Although the annual ticket revenue was far less than the Fairy Cave scenic spot, it was still a huge sum of money. At the same time, the scenic spot also promoted the development of the tertiary industry for the nearby villagers. It was a great contribution.
After taking the cable car to the "Three Saints Temple" at the top of the mountain, Liao Zhicheng and Vicky burned incense in the temple. They came out and leaned against the railing. As if thinking of something, he nodded and pointed to the mountainside and said to Bo Yubing, "County Head Bo, I want to invest 500 million here to build the glass plank road and high-altitude floating that have become popular in the country in the past two years. I will also build a water town at the foot of the mountain. I will temporarily name it the" Taihang Water Town ".
Bo Yubing was used to him investing a few billion, so when she heard him say that he was investing 500 million, she was not surprised. She even thought that he had said too little. She smiled and said, "That's good. This place is close to the Fairy Cave scenic spot. If we build a water town here, we can attract tourists who have already visited the Fairy Cave scenic spot and extend their travel time. In other words, they will have to spend more on food, accommodation, and entertainment. In this way, the new scenic spot and the Fairy Cave scenic spot will be on two levels. Not only will they complement each other, but they will also improve the overall development level and strength of the tourism industry in Shuanghe River. "
Li Rui nodded at Liao Zhicheng's idea. He felt that Liao Zhicheng was very knowledgeable about tourism and had a lot of ideas. However, two years ago, Huang Weining had already built a large-scale scenic spot at the Fairy River. In the summer, there were all kinds of water activities, such as rafting and bamboo rafting. In the winter, there was artificial snow for skiing, ice skating, and other ice sports. If Liao Zhicheng built another water town, he would definitely take away the tourists from Huang Weining's place. It would not be good if he created another water town.
After the group of people came out of the "Three Holy Temples" scenic spot, they walked along the Fairy River back to the county. On the way, Liao Zhicheng made bold statements from time to time. If he was not investing 1 billion here, then he was investing 800 million there. He had already exceeded his original investment limit of 5 billion. In the end, Bo Yubing, Li Rui, Zhang Dalei, Lin Lewen, and the others did not feel anything when they heard the unit "100 million." It was almost the same as hearing the unit "10,000." However, no one said that Liao Zhicheng was unreliable. This was because his words revealed his familiarity with the tourism industry. Occasionally, he would talk about a few investment points, which were "profound knowledge" that leaders like them could not come into contact with. He left the impression that he knew how to invest and was indeed a professional investor.
When they returned to the county, it was already past 6 pm. The sky was getting dark. After getting off the car at the entrance of the guest house, Liao Zhicheng smiled and said to Bo Yubing, "Today, County Head Bo did me a big favor and accompanied me to tour around the county. I am very grateful. In order to express my gratitude, I would like to invite County Head Bo to dinner. Do I have the honor?"
Right now, Bo Yubing was not worried about anything else. She was only worried that Liao Zhicheng did not intend to invest and leave after the inspection. If that happened, then all her efforts today would have been in vain. However, she was not worried that Liao Zhicheng would not return the 1 million. Therefore, when she saw that Liao Zhicheng took the initiative to express his goodwill, she was surprised and happy. She felt that Liao Zhicheng had the intention to invest.
Liao Zhicheng smiled and said, "No, it must be me. Then it's settled. Now, let's go back to wash up and rest for a while. At 7 pm, we will meet downstairs for dinner. "
Bo Yubing smiled and nodded, "Okay. See you there."
Liao Zhicheng smiled and walked into the courtyard with his secretary, Vicky.
Bo Yubing looked at Li Rui, Zhang Dalei, and Lin Lewen and said, "Everyone must be tired after running around for a day. Go home and rest early." After saying that, she did not wait for the three of them to say anything and walked in hurriedly.
Li Rui was not depressed or annoyed because he was left behind by Liao Zhicheng and Bo Yubing and could not have dinner with them. On the contrary, he was happy and relaxed. One of them was evil and arrogant, while the other was self-centered. Therefore, he wanted to stay far away from them. He smiled at Zhang Dalei and Lin Lewen and said, "Director Dalei, Lewen, I will treat you to dinner tonight."
