Chapter 605: Skirmish

The person who spoke to Li Wanqing was Hannah, the wife of Schmidt, the vice president of MTD. The couple had a good relationship, and this time Schmidt came to China on business, and Hannah followed her husband. The vice president's wife was a kind old woman, and she was overjoyed when she saw the gentle and pretty Li Wanqing, and took her hand and talked endlessly.

At this time, Hannah was asking Li Wanqing with a smile: "Are you working right now, or are you planning to be Xiao's full-time wife after getting married?"

Li Wanqing was a little embarrassed to be asked, and replied with a slight blush: "We have no plans to get married, I am a volunteer in a charitable foundation, and I am on vacation recently." ”

"You're a kind girl. Hannah smiled and said, "It's good to be charity, a few good friends and I are managing a charity fund, and every time I think that my work can help people in need, I feel very happy." ”

Hannah's words gave Xiao Ping a lot of inspiration, and he couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "Yes, I can register a charity fund by myself for Wanqing to manage, can't I avoid the bullshit she said?

The more Xiao Ping thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was feasible, and he planned to talk to Li Wanqing first after the drinking party and tell her his plans. Xiao Ping could already guess how happy Li Wanqing would be when she learned the news, and couldn't help but let out a knowing smile.

Just when Xiao Ping was secretly happy, Zhong Weirong hurriedly came over and whispered in his ear: "Those people from the China Merchants Office are making trouble outside, and they also want to participate in the cocktail party!"

Xiao Ping laughed angrily when he heard this, and said coldly to Zhong Weirong: "Some people just like to inch in. Let's go, let's go!"

The two of them walked briskly outside the banquet hall. Sure enough, I saw a lot of people from the investment promotion office gathered at the door. Li Bin, deputy director of the investment promotion office, was standing at the front, negotiating with several employees of the Xianhu company.

"This comrade. Everyone is here for work, so you can make it convenient for us to go in!" Although Li Bin had a smile on his face, it was completely an order tone, as if he should let him in.

Guarding the door were the two young people newly recruited by the company, they didn't care whether the other party was from the investment promotion office or where, they only knew that they had to strictly abide by Manager Zhong's fame and fortune, so they shook their heads and said, "I'm sorry, we can't let you in without the instructions above!"

There's no shortage of whiskers anywhere. The China Merchants Office is no exception. Seeing that the other party simply rejected Li Bin's request, a middle-aged man with eyes immediately stepped forward and said: "Young man, this is Director Li of the Investment Promotion Office." I can remind you that you are hindering our work, and if something goes wrong, you will be held responsible!"

Xiao Ping, who came to the door, happened to hear this, and immediately smiled and asked: "My employees are loyal to their duties, what responsibility do they have to bear?"

"Boss Xiao, you came just in time. Li Bin immediately smiled when he saw Xiao Ping: "Tell these two little comrades quickly, and ask them to let us in." I heard that the foreign delegates will be going back tomorrow. We must seize the last opportunity to convince them to look elsewhere in Sioux City. ”

Xiao Ping doesn't care how hard Li Bin works, but his attitude of not treating himself as an outsider is really annoying. After all, those foreigners came to inspect the fairy pot company, and let the people from the investment promotion office participate in the welcome reception. It's already Xiao Ping giving in. At present, Li Bin and the others still have to make inches, which inevitably makes Xiao Ping a little unhappy.

"I'm sorry, Director Li. Xiao Ping suppressed the anger in his heart. smiled and said to Li Bin: "Tonight's drinking party is private, and everyone will not be involved in official matters." So...... I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to participate. ”

"Why is it inappropriate? It is more convenient to talk about private matters first to enhance feelings, and then talk about official affairs!" It was the guy with glasses who stood up for Li Bin. He looked at Xiao Ping arrogantly and said: "Mr. Xiao, I still hope that you will cooperate with us more, in case there is a problem with the investment promotion work, even if you are the boss of the fairy pot company, you can't afford to take this responsibility!"

Mao Deli, the glasses man, has recently been striving for a deputy section-level position in the China Merchants Office, so he has been very proactive. He felt that he was also a civil servant, and with Director Li by his side, he didn't take a "private entrepreneur" like Xiao Ping in his eyes, and his attitude was naturally relatively bad.

Xiao Ping hates the guy who holds chicken feathers as arrows the most, not to mention that the other party is so arrogant without even a chicken feather in his hand, which makes him even more disliked. Since the other party was so polite, Xiao Ping would not have a good face for them, and immediately said with a straight face: "You just can't go in today, it's useless to say anything!"

Li Bin is also a state cadre, when has he ever been treated like this by the boss of a private enterprise? Being mercilessly rejected by Xiao Ping in front of so many subordinates made him feel very shameless, and he couldn't help but sneer and remind Xiao Ping: "Boss Xiao, don't forget that this matter was led by Mayor Zhao! It doesn't matter if you don't let us in, I will report to Mayor Zhao when I have the chance!"

Zhao Zheng is the deputy mayor in charge of economic construction in Su City, and Li Bin thinks that moving this great god out will always force Xiao Ping to give in. With a smug smile on his face, he waited for Xiao Ping to compromise and say a few cool words to save face.

Mao Deli was also beside him to help, and said babblingly: "I really think it would be great if your fairy pot company could invite foreigners to investigate? Don't forget that you still run a business within the scope of Su City, hmph, if you offend the competent department, what good fruit will you eat?"

Xiao Ping originally just wanted to prevent these people from participating in the drinking party, but he didn't expect Li Bin and Mao Deli to threaten him in turn, and he immediately became angry. If Xiao Ping shows weakness at this time, who knows how these guys will make things difficult for the Immortal Pot Company in the future, this matter must not be left like this, and they must be taught a lesson!

Thinking of this, Xiao Ping looked at Li Bin and the others coldly, took out his mobile phone and dialed a call.

Just when the others were a little confused, Xiao Ping had already smiled and said to the other end of the phone: "Mayor Zhao? Hello, I'm Xiao Ping of Xianhu Company, I'm really sorry to disturb you so late." ”

The person who received Xiao Ping's call was Zhao Zheng, the deputy mayor who was regarded as a backer by Li Bin and others. Zhao Zheng didn't have a meal tonight, and was watching TV with his wife at home. Although Zhao Zheng has no interest in those boring TV series, the point is not on TV, but on being able to spend more time with his family, which is what really relaxes him.

So when the phone rang, Zhao Zheng couldn't help frowning, but when he heard Xiao Ping report his home, he still smiled enthusiastically: "Oh, it's Mr. Xiao, hello hello." The investment promotion office is really causing you trouble, thank you for your strong support for their work!"

Although Xiao Ping's title was only that of a private entrepreneur, Zhao Zheng definitely did not dare to despise this young man. Zhao Zheng had a good relationship with Wang Chunlai, and he also learned from him that Xiao Ping and Governor Zhang's family had a good relationship. In addition, Zhao Zheng also knew that the reason why his predecessor Liu Di was transferred to the Party History Office as a cold bench was because he was responsible for the leadership of the pollution incident in Xiaozhou River, and this pollution incident was also caused by Xiao Ping. After knowing these things, Zhao Zheng has always been polite to Xiao Ping.

"Mayor Zhao, I'm just reporting this to you. Xiao Ping said lightly: "Speaking of which, these people from the investment promotion office have really caused me a lot of trouble, no, now that I am having a meeting with foreign businessmen, they will also come in and intervene." He also said that this is your instruction, if our fairy pot company does not cooperate, there will be no good fruit to eat in the future! Mayor Zhao, I don't believe you will say such a thing, don't call you for verification, otherwise there is no bottom in your heart!"

Hearing Xiao Ping's words, Zhao Zheng immediately became angry, and he couldn't wait to immediately call all the people in the investment promotion office to repair it. These people threaten no one to threaten Xiao Ping, and they have to pull themselves on their backs, what a bastard!

Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng hurriedly said: "How could I say such a thing, absolutely those people misunderstood what I meant." In this way, Mr. Xiao, you give the phone to the people in the investment promotion office, and I will tell them. ”

"Okay, I'm sorry for you, Mayor Zhao. Xiao Ping politely thanked Zhao Zheng, and then handed the phone to Li Bin with an expressionless face.

Li Bin didn't believe that Xiao Ping could call the mayor directly, thinking that he was just pretending. He sneered and took the phone, and as soon as he heard it, his face immediately changed.

"Who are you in the investment promotion office?" Zhao Zheng was not so polite to the people in the investment promotion office, and roared loudly on the phone: "I don't care who you are now, apologize to Xiao Ping immediately, and then take everyone to get out of the house immediately! If I know in the future, if you dare to make any trouble with the fairy pot company, see how I clean you up!"

Hearing that this was indeed Mayor Zhao's voice, Li Bin was immediately scared into a cold sweat. He never thought that Xiao Ping could make Zhao Zheng so angry with just a phone call.

Li Bin, who was scolded so bloody, still wanted to defend a few words, but Zhao Zheng said impatiently: "Don't explain anything to me, unless you don't want to do this position, do it immediately!"

Zhao Zheng's tone was categorical, and Li Bin knew that it was really possible to be pushed down if he said more, so he hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Yes, Mayor Zhao, I will do it immediately!"

In the surprised eyes of the others in the investment promotion office, Li Bing politely returned the phone to Xiao Ping, and then nodded to him: "Sorry, Mr. Xiao." We want to make some achievements too much, and we have caused you a lot of trouble, please forgive me. ”

This was originally a trivial matter, but since the other party apologized, Xiao Ping didn't want to hold on tightly, nodded slightly and said, "It's just a misunderstanding, since it's over, forget it." Director Li, please please, I will also greet the guests. ”

"Alright, alright, then we'll take our leave. Li Bin didn't want to stay here for a moment, and after hurriedly saying hello, he immediately left the banquet hall in a hurry with his subordinates. (To be continued......)
