Li Rui smiled bitterly. "You think I didn't want to? I wanted to recruit him to Shuanghe at first, but he didn't think much of a small county like Shuanghe. Even for Qingyang, I had to persuade him in every possible way before he agreed to consider it."
Gu Yingtong joked, "I knew it. Why would you introduce such a good thing to me? So he didn't think much of you, and you had no choice but to transfer it to me. Sigh, I was very touched when I heard that. You've already gone to Guangzhou and you still think of me. How nice. I didn't expect it to be like this. I'm so disappointed. "
Li Rui was both angry and amused. "Gu Yingtong, can you speak with your conscience? Although I was indeed rejected by President Mu first, I immediately thought of you and wanted you to produce such results. Isn't that thinking of you? Isn't that good enough for you? You're still disappointed? "
Gu Yingtong laughed happily. After laughing, she said, "I'm just joking with you. Are you serious?"
Li Ruiqi said, "When did you become so fond of joking? I remember that you used to be a lady. "
Gu Yingtong was unhappy now. She pretended to be angry and said, "What do you mean? Aren't you a lady if you joke? "
Li Rui smiled and said, "Okay, I was wrong. That's all I have to say. You can go to the meeting now … Oh, right, I almost forgot to remind you. I said good things about you in front of Mu Jingzu. I said that you have a lot of charisma. He also considered Qingyang because of this. Don't forget to show off your charisma when you talk to him. "
This sentence made Gu Yingtong laugh out loud. She asked shyly, "What charisma do I have?"
Li Rui said, "Your charisma is still a little lacking! It's fine if you're handsome, but your personality is so good. You're gentle and elegant. You exude the aura of a lady from head to toe. You treat people sincerely and have a pleasant voice … "
"Stop, stop. Haha, if you continue, I'll go to heaven. Li Rui, oh Li Rui, I didn't expect you to be so glib. But I like to hear it, hehe. When you come back from Guangzhou, I will treat you to a meal. You can praise me like this at the dining table … "
After the call ended, Li Rui stood up and felt refreshed. He thought to himself that it was a blessing to have a beautiful woman like Gu Yingtong as a friend. Just chatting with her was something that couldn't be bought with money. When he thought of her voice and smile, he couldn't wait to go back to Qingyang to have a meal with her. Unfortunately, he still had some work to do. He sighed and walked towards the exhibition hall.
Inside the pavilion, Chen Yang was looking around with the old man. When he saw Li Rui coming back, he was overjoyed. He stepped forward and said, "County Magistrate Li, you're finally back. President Qin is very interested in our county's Fairy Cave scenic spot. Can you give him a detailed introduction?"
Li Rui quickly extended his hand to the old man and said, "Hello, President Qin. I am the deputy county head of Shuanghe County in Shannan Province in charge of investment. My name is Li Rui."
A smile appeared on President Qin's old face. He shook hands with him and said, "Hello, County Magistrate Li. Can you give me a brief introduction of the scenic spot?"
Li Rui had introduced the background of the Fairy Cave scenic spot to many people. He was already familiar with it. When he heard President Qin's words, he tirelessly explained the situation of the scenic spot. He specifically pointed out that there were already two investors who were going to develop the Fairy Cave scenic spot and upgrade it to a 5A grade. The future development of the scenic spot would be even more magnificent.
President Qin listened and said, "My company specializes in health and wellness projects. I came to the Expo this time to find a local government to cooperate with and build a new health industry city in a suitable place. It will focus on leisure, health, retirement, and other service projects. I just heard from this young friend that the Fairy Cave scenic spot in your county is very suitable for my project. I want to know more about it. After listening to your introduction, I'm already very interested. I wonder if it's possible for me to take a look? "
Li Rui hurriedly said, "If you want to build a new health industry city, of course I welcome you with open arms. However, I have something unpleasant to say first. President Qin, although the number of tourists in the Fairy Cave scenic spot is very shocking and will continue to increase in the future, most of them are tourists who come for short trips. They will go there for a day or two at most. After that, they will return. There aren't many local natives and their income is low. I'm afraid that not many people will patronize your new health industry city."
President Qin raised his beautiful eyebrows. He had a look of appreciation and praised, "You're very honest!"
Li Rui smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your praise, President Qin. I'm just speaking the truth to avoid any misunderstandings in the future. Also, our Shuanghe County is sincerely attracting investment. We want to achieve mutual benefits with the investors. Even if we can't achieve this goal, at least we won't harm the investors. "
President Qin smiled and said, "I'm also grateful for your reminder. However, this isn't a problem."
Li Rui said happily, "That's easy then. When will you be free? We'll be returning to the county tomorrow. Do you want to come with us or make an appointment? "
President Qin said, "I think I'll be there next week. If it's convenient, please exchange your contact information …"
Li Rui didn't want to steal such a big client from Chen Yang. He said to him, "You can exchange contact information with President Qin."
Chen Yang was already overjoyed. He took out his phone as soon as he heard that …
After President Qin left, Li Rui stopped smiling and said to Chen Yang with a frown, "I've already explained the various disadvantages of the Fairy Cave scenic spot. However, President Qin is still very interested in visiting the county …"
"Isn't that great?" Chen Yang cut him off with glee.
"You think it's great? Think about it carefully. Investing in building a new health industry city would cost at least a few billion. It could even cost up to tens of billions. Not just anyone can casually fork out that kind of money. Even if you're a billionaire, you'd have to think carefully before you're willing to fork out that kind of money. This President Qin didn't even consider the actual situation of the Fairy Cave scenic spot. He said he'd go and check it out. On the surface, it looks like he's sincere in investing, but in reality, I think he's up to something else. "
Chen Yang couldn't take it anymore. He asked with a strange expression, "Up to something else? What's up to? "
Li Rui said, "If it's a tourism investment in the Fairy Cave scenic spot, there might be some profit to be made. However, if it's a new city, there's a ninety percent chance that it'll lose money. No boss would do a business that loses money. Therefore, it's very likely that President Qin's plan is either to use the land from the government to do something else, or to use the name of a new health industry city to cheat the country's civil affairs and welfare departments for financial support."
Chen Yang sucked in a breath of cold air and said, "Is it that scary? This President Qin doesn't look like a bad guy. "
Li Rui said, "A bad guy wouldn't write the word 'bad guy' on his forehead. Of course, I can't be sure that President Qin is a bad guy. I'm just analyzing these possibilities. You have to be careful when you receive him. Observe him from all angles to determine his sincerity in investing. "
At noon, Li Rui and Chen Yang left the exhibition hall for lunch. After lunch, Li Rui asked Chen Yang to return to the exhibition hall first while he ran to a nearby shopping mall.
"Sir, are you buying shoes for your wife?"
In a female shoe store on the first floor of the shopping mall, a female employee asked Li Rui with a look of admiration. It was normal for a man to bring his wife to a shopping mall to buy shoes. At most, it showed that the couple had a harmonious relationship. However, if a man didn't bring his wife to a shopping mall to buy shoes, it showed his deep love for his wife. It also showed his romance and interest. Men like that were rare in real life.
Li Rui shook his head but quickly nodded and said, "Ah, yes, I'm just looking around."
"Sir, if your wife is about the same age as you, can I recommend a few new shoes this year?"
"Ah, sure. Thank you!"
Five to six minutes later, Li Rui nodded and waved the black pointy high heels in his hand. He said, "I'll take this pair."
"Alright, sir. You want a size 38. The pair in your hand is a size 39. Please confirm the size and I'll get it for you."
"It should be a size 38. There's no mistake."
Li Rui recalled the size of her feet in his mind. Although he had never measured her before, he was basically sure that it was a size 38. After all, he was an expert who had read countless books. He could guess the size of a woman's feet at a glance. It was basically not far from the mark.
The female employee smiled and said, "Sir, you're an excellent husband. It's rare to see a man like you who can remember his wife's shoe size. My husband doesn't remember my shoe size. Please wait a moment, I'll go get it for you. "She then walked to the storeroom.
Li Rui smiled bitterly. He thought to himself, I'm not buying shoes for my wife, but I remember my wife's shoe size too.
"Sir, the shoes are here. These shoes also come in the color of ivory. If your wife is wearing them in the summer, I suggest you buy a pair of white shoes. White is the same as black, and it can match well with clothes. In the summer, it will look cool and dry, and it will set off your skin better. It will also look fashionable and beautiful. Do you want to consider it? "
Li Rui hesitated for a moment and then nodded. He said, "Alright, then I'll get a pair of white shoes. We'll buy them together!"
Five minutes later, Li Rui walked out of the building with two bags. He didn't stop. He crossed the road and walked to a delivery company on the opposite side of the street … When he came out again, his hands were empty.
"I broke one of your shoes, so I'll compensate you with two pairs. Isn't that good enough? Haha. "
Li Rui couldn't help but laugh when he thought of her angry look. He felt a little proud in his heart, as if he had achieved something great. He then walked back to the exhibition hall. On the way, he called the hotel he was staying at and asked them to book the earliest flight back to Jingnan the next day, including the tickets for himself, Fang Zhitong, and Chen Yang. Fang Zhitong's ID number was obtained from Mu Shuang when she left her house in the morning.
