If Yue Minghe said this to someone else, it would be nothing, but it was a bit arrogant to say this to Fang Zhicheng. After all, Fang Zhicheng was not an ordinary deputy county magistrate. He was about to enter the Standing Committee and was more important than Luo Hui.

Fang Zhicheng would not argue too much with Yue Minghe. After all, people's personalities are ever-changing. Yue Minghe's extroverted personality would not make people feel too disgusted. He smiled faintly and said, "Okay, okay."

After Fang Zhicheng sat down, Qi Yu said in a low voice with displeasure: "This guy named Yue is a little too arrogant, as if he is some big shot."

Qi Yu is the third-generation successor of the Qi Group. He has seen all kinds of people. He is quite dissatisfied with Yue Minghe's attitude. Fang Zhicheng smiled and whispered to comfort him: "Calm down."

Qi Yu snorted softly, feeling unhappy.

Wu Haiyan saw it all and broke out in a cold sweat for Yue Minghe. Others didn't know the relationship between Fang Zhicheng and Zhao Qingya, but she, Wu Haiyan, knew it. When Sun Hung Kai Properties got into trouble, it was Fang Zhicheng who contacted Zhao Qingya and invested in the acquisition to solve the urgent problem of Sun Hung Kai Properties.

"Minister Yue, I still need your attention on the Dongtai Huijin Commercial Plaza..." Wu Haiyan took the initiative to toast Yue Minghe, "I am a native of Dongtai and a member of the Hongda Group. If the Hongda Group can enter the Huijin Commercial Plaza, it will be a blessing for me."

Yue Minghe looked at Wu Haiyan deeply and whispered, "Boss Wu, we are family. There is no need to be so polite."

The person sitting next to Yue Minghe, Yue Minghe's assistant, noticed that Yue Minghe was interested in Wu Haiyan, and said, "Boss Wu, since you are so happy today, why don't we make it more lively? Why don't you toast to Boss Yue..."

Seeing Fang Zhicheng's bad complexion, Luo Hui also showed an awkward smile. To put it nicely, Yue Minghe's performance at the dinner party today was that he did not treat himself as an outsider, but to put it bluntly, he was too unscrupulous.

Luo Hui leaned close to Fang Zhicheng's ear and explained softly, "Yue Minghe is a well-known figure in Huainan's social circle. The reason why Hongda Group's investment promotion department is so powerful is because Yue Minghe has strong public relations skills. We only need to borrow Yue Minghe's strength to achieve our goal in the shortest time."

Qi Yu twitched her lips and said unhappily, "Fang Zhicheng, I regret it. I don't want to let them be responsible for leasing the other half of Huijin Commercial Plaza."

"This..." Luo Hui looked embarrassed. At this time, Yue Minghe and Wu Haiyan had already toasted each other. Wu Haiyan looked perfunctory and it was obvious that she didn't have much to do.

"In that case, let's just forget about it." Fang Zhicheng didn't show much emotion and said calmly, "Brother Luo, Qi Yu and I will leave first. You can say hello to Minister Yue."

Luo Hui knew that Fang Zhicheng was unhappy, so he could only smile bitterly and said, "It's clear that we can't reach an agreement today. You guys go first."

Seeing Fang Zhicheng and Qi Yu leave, Yue Minghe showed a smug smile. He deliberately ignored Fang Zhicheng and Qi Yu today. This was actually intentional. In Yue Minghe's view, he came to Dongtai because of Luo Hui. Fang Zhicheng was just a young deputy county magistrate, so how could he take him seriously? In addition, Qi Yu was the head of the Qi Group. From a certain perspective, he was the competitor of the Hongda Group in Huainan. How could he give him a good face

"Lao Luo, I came to Dongtai to discuss business with you. Why did you bring someone from the Qi Group here? And as far as I can see, that young deputy county magistrate knows nothing. You are the only one I recognize regarding Huijin Commercial Plaza." Yue Minghe leaned close to Luo Hui and whispered.

Luo Hui sighed and said, "Minister Yue, I'm afraid you made a wrong judgment. The County Magistrate Fang I brought here today has more weight than I do. In addition, the person in charge of the Qi Group just said that Huijin Commercial Plaza may not be able to cooperate with you."

Yue Minghe waved his hand and smiled conceitedly, "Lao Luo, there's no need to be so stubborn. Huijin Commercial Plaza is in such an urgent progress now. Apart from our Hongda Group, who else can have the strength to recruit enough shops in such a short time?"

Luo Hui shook his head, gave a bitter smile and said no more. Yue Minghe did have the capital to be conceited. In fact, Fang Zhicheng only needed to be a little patient. Now he left immaturely, which made it difficult for him to deal with it.

"I'm sorry, I was a little impulsive just now." After walking out of the restaurant, Qi Yu sighed quietly.

Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "You were indeed impulsive just now. Huijin Commercial Plaza cannot just decide not to rent it."

Qi Yu stared at Fang Zhicheng's thin and clean face and asked doubtfully, "Do you have another employer?"

Fang Zhicheng shook his head and smiled faintly: "Hongda Group is the largest commercial real estate company in Huainan Province. Their investment attraction ability is also ranked first in the country. If they hadn't entered Huijin Commercial Plaza, it would be almost impossible for us to open the first phase of the project within the planned time."

Qi Yu snorted and said, "The head of the investment promotion department of Hongda Group was probably so unscrupulous at the dinner because he was sure of your Dongtai government. Are you planning to go back and beg that disgusting guy?"

Fang Zhicheng found that Qi Yu was sometimes vigorous and decisive, but often very naive. He smiled and said, "That Qiu is just a business director. Even if we ask him, Hongda Group may not be willing to enter Huijin Commercial Plaza to attract investment. The person I asked for is more reliable than that Qiu. If she agrees, the bet you proposed will definitely fail."

Qi Yu waved her hand and said, "As long as you don't ask that Qiu for help, I will take back what I said just now. Huijin Commercial Plaza can still be rented out half..."

Fang Zhicheng smiled and called Zhao Qingya in front of Qi Yu. Given the relationship between Fang Zhicheng and Zhao Qingya, how could Hongda Group ignore the affairs of Huijin Commercial Plaza? The reason why Luo Hui came forward to cooperate with Hongda Group was just to avoid being noticed by interested parties and being implicated in the relationship between himself and Hongda Group.

It is not a good thing for officials to have connections with a certain enterprise, as economic issues are a taboo in official circles.

In Fang Zhicheng's eyes, Qiu Minghe is just a clown who doesn't know his own identity.

After Fang Zhicheng finished the call, he made an OK gesture and said with a smile: "It's done. Tomorrow, Hongda Group will re-arrange someone to contact the Dongtai government. Please rest assured that you don't need to deal with the surname Qiu, so our bet still counts."

Qi Yu stared at Fang Zhicheng carefully for a few seconds, and muttered: "Why should something that can be done simply be so complicated? I can see that you should be very familiar with a senior executive of Hongda Group. Why do you have to go through such a journey..."

Fang Zhicheng waved his hand and smiled, "It's all for safety reasons."

Qi Yu had no way of understanding Fang Zhicheng's good intentions. He didn't know how many people were hiding in the dark and watching him. If he used his connections to contact Zhao Qingya directly, he would probably be used by others. Now that he used Luo Hui to contact Hongda Group, the incident at Huijin Commercial Plaza would eliminate the shadow of his own layout.

Fang Zhicheng is now acting carefully enough and trying not to leave any evidence for the enemy.

The two were walking on the street, and suddenly came to the door of a newly opened bar. Qi Yu asked tentatively: "Can you invite me in for a drink?"

Fang Zhicheng nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Of course."

Dongtai's economy is developing very fast, and there are many more places for leisure and entertainment. This bar called Vitality was just renovated not long ago. It is based on the layout of Xiangdu Nightclub and has become famous in a very short time. When you step inside, the neon lights are flashing, and a female singer in a silver skirt is singing passionately on the stage, holding an upright microphone, singing the most popular "Fairy Tale", which is very interesting.

Dongtai's investment promotion is relatively high-end, so most of the influx of foreign population have a certain cultural quality. The mixed quality of dance halls cannot meet the needs of consumers, so Dongtai's nightclub culture is also developing towards the high-end, using the economy to drive the development of the service industry, which was originally an important part of the county government's economic planning.

Of course, there are many hidden worries behind the good momentum. There are no less than four nightclubs like the Vibrant Bar in Dongtai. Some time ago, someone reported that several of these bars had even engaged in fights due to competition, and the matter was forcibly suppressed by the relevant departments.

Fang Zhicheng and Qi Yu found a random seat and sat down. Qi Yu ordered a cocktail for Fang Zhicheng and said with a smile, "I didn't expect there are so many varieties of drinks here. Let's try some later to see if they are authentic."

Fang Zhicheng shook his head and said with a smile: "I can't tell what's so special about it..."

Not long after, two cocktails came up. Fang Zhicheng picked up the colorful amber glass, took a sip slowly, and said with a smile: "It tastes really good, soft in texture, with a hint of fruit, and no smell of alcohol, nor any spicy taste."

Qi Yu smiled and reminded: "Don't underestimate this cocktail, some of them are as strong as white wine, so don't drink too much, or you will get drunk inadvertently."
