"Zhang Zhibao passed away in the afternoon due to a sudden illness."

"Wha, what?" Li Yuanlang couldn't help stuttering.

In his impression, Zhang Zhibao was only in his sixties when he suddenly became ill...

Suddenly, Li Yuanlang understood everything.

"Comrade Han Qi lost his beloved son and was hospitalized for emergency treatment." Lu Linsong added, "This time, he is really sick."

"Dad, don't think too much." Li Yuanlang consoled him, "He brought it upon himself and it has nothing to do with you."

Lu Linsong ignored Li Yuanlang's words and still said to himself guiltily: "I regret it now. I wish I had answered that phone call."

Li Yuanlang had a lot of things to say in his stomach, but seeing his father-in-law's highly self-blaming expression, he really couldn't say it out.

After waiting for Lu Linsong to lie down, Li Yuanlang tiptoed away and returned to the room upstairs.

Bai Qing was waiting for Li Yuanlang, "What did dad tell you? He's back so soon."

Li Yuanlang whispered: "Zhang Zhibao is dead."

Bai Qing was startled, "Is he dead?"

"Sudden onset of illness."

After a while, Bai Qing sneered: "This is the last fig leaf left for Zhang Hanqi."

"That's what I think too." Li Yuanlang analyzed: "It must have been a secret execution, but if he announced that he died of illness, it would be easier to explain in all aspects."

"Death is not a pity." Bai Qing said coldly: "Dad must have touched the Bodhisattva's heart again. But he didn't want to think about Zhang Zhibao's behavior against you. If someone hadn't taken the bullet for you, you would have died. I would have died."

Will become a widow!"

"I really don't understand Dad. Kindness to outsiders is cruelty to his own family. He can never get around this truth."

Li Yuanlang sat over and put his arm around Bai Qing's shoulders, "Dad is kind-hearted and thinks more about others than himself. In fact, this quality in dad is worth learning from."

"You, I see you are becoming more and more like dad. Tell me, how many times have you escaped from death in the past few years? If you weren't so lucky, you would have died several times."

"Don't always keep the word 'death' on your lips, it's not good." Li Yuanlang complained softly.

"I'm just angry, angry with dad, angry with you, just talking casually."

"Honey, dad is helping Yu Jinfeng establish his authority again. I think Yu Jinfeng owes dad another favor."

"This is true, but..." Bai Qing looked worried, "Yu Jinfeng took this opportunity to reshuffle the troops. Zhang Hanqi's remnants were cleared away, and only he and his father were left."

Bai Qing continued her analysis, "Remember the last time my dad went back to his hometown, I asked you to meet an important person. Do you know who it is?"

Li Yuanlang joked: "If you don't tell me, I'll have to guess where you're going."

"His name is Li Guanhua. He was promoted by his father and he is very trustworthy. There is also another person named Wei Xun who is also admired by his father."

"The two of them are in important positions. It is estimated that they will be further improved this time. I am grateful for dad's help."

Li Yuanlang had always had the impression that Wang Minghong was a person whom his father-in-law trusted, and it was unimaginable that he still had the resources left by his father-in-law in the army.

It's normal if you think about it carefully. My father-in-law has been working for ten years and has more or less old subordinates. This is normal.

Bai Qing rolled her eyes, "Husband, I think this sudden incident is also a good thing for you."

"Tell me about it." Li Yuanlang said curiously.

"If I guess correctly, your negotiations will go smoothly tomorrow, and all the difficulties you predicted before will be overcome as this matter progresses."

Li Yuanlang thought for a moment, couldn't help but clapped his hands, and exclaimed: "Really, wife, you are so smart. If you can win the Benge Cell Phone Company, I will reward you greatly."

"I don't want that. What I want is to win such a big project. Your prestige in Deping City will increase a lot, which will greatly help your future career."

Li Yuanlang said: "I don't think about career progress. I am only thinking about the considerable benefits that the US$3 billion invested by me can bring to Deping City and its citizens. That is the most important thing."

"Give me Gao Shang again, I don't like to hear it. Go take a shower, your body smells like sweat, it's so unpleasant." Bai Qing pushed Li Yuanlang into the bathroom.

A night of silence.

While having breakfast, Lu Linsong was in a low mood and worried.

Even though Qingqing called out sweetly: "Good morning, grandpa."

Lu Linsong just forced out a smile, which was very reluctant.

"Dad, you..."

Bai Qing gave a look and interrupted the rest of Li Yuanlang's words.

"It's okay. I'm fine. Let's eat."

This meal was quite boring.

After Lu Linsong put down his bowls and chopsticks and walked out of the dining room, Li Yuanlang quickly followed.

After accompanying his father-in-law to the door of the study, Lu Linsong turned to look at him and asked, "You are going to negotiate with Benge Company soon."

"Two hours left."

"Go early, don't keep everyone waiting."

"Yeah." Li Yuanlang nodded.

After just two steps, Lu Linsong called him back, "Wan Haiyao also needs to deal with it. His problem is more serious than Zhang Zhibao. This is a good thing for you."

Li Yuanlang was not surprised by this.

It has been almost three months since the shooting occurred, and Wan Haiyao has been on hold.

Zhang Zhibao has been dealt with, and Wan Haiyao must also be in danger.

This is a wake-up call to everyone. Everything else is fine, but colluding with foreign forces is a dead end.

It's just that Li Yuanlang has always had a question. His father-in-law is frowning and in a bad mood. Is it just as simple as feeling guilty?

Li Yuanlang hurriedly hurriedly hurriedly and finally reunited with the large group of people.

As soon as he entered the hotel room, Geng Huanqing and Director Li came to greet him.

Seeing the anxious expressions on their faces, Li Yuanlang had a premonition that something was wrong.

"Mayor Li, the other party suddenly proposed to change the negotiation venue."

Geng Huanqing looked anxious and a little at a loss.

"Change the place?" Li Yuanlang was equally surprised, "Where did it change?"

Director Li gave the address.

Li Yuanlang looked at his phone and saw that there were still fifty minutes left before the agreed negotiation time.

"Why are you still hanging around? Let's go quickly."

Li Yuanlang knew very well that foreigners valued punctuality very much and even associated it with sincerity.

Several people took two Buick commercial vehicles and rushed to the negotiation location at lightning speed.

Geng Huanqing complained in the car, "The Benge Company is too shameful. It's not clear that they are creating problems for us. I don't think they are sincere."

Li Yuanlang didn't think so, but it was useless to say anything now.

The other party deliberately made things difficult, but it showed that they valued Deping City.

If you drive normally, fifty minutes is enough.

But not long after the convoy drove out, it encountered a traffic jam.

The traffic jam in Beijing is very serious. Even if the number is limited, there are still long queues of vehicles at red light intersections, with no end in sight.

"Why is there such a heavy traffic jam today?" Director Li muttered, "It's not the rush hour, so it's really rare to see such a traffic jam."

Geng Huanqing looked at his watch and worried: "If this continues, it will be difficult for us to arrive at the negotiation site on time."

Li Yuanlang looked out of the car window and immediately ordered, "We won't take the car anymore, we'll take the subway."

I have no choice but to do this in order to rush for time.

So the group of people got off the bus halfway, and there happened to be a subway station 100 meters away.

Director Li quickly bought the bus pass and the group entered the subway station.

During this time, there are fewer people taking the subway than during the peak period, but there are still people coming and going, and the flow is endless.

Every five or six minutes, a subway comes.

Fortunately, just as they arrived, a subway stopped.

Several people almost jogged, and finally they all boarded the subway.

There were not many people in the carriage, at least no one was bumping into each other.

Fang Yan followed Li Yuanlang closely, holding a briefcase in his hand and looking around, he found an empty seat.

He slowly came over to block it and said to a member of the negotiation team: "Brother Zhang, what you are carrying is heavy. Come and sit down."

Brother Zhang is a section chief of the Foreign Affairs Office of the municipal government. Because he is familiar with the common sense of dealing with foreigners and is good at foreign languages, he also temporarily acts as a translator.

His briefcase contains many documents, so it is very heavy.

Section Chief Zhang waved his hands hurriedly, "It's okay, I'll just stand."

His eyes signaled to Fang Yan, "Mayor Li is still standing, how can I have the nerve to sit down?"

However, Fang Yan made a pun and said: "Brother Zhang, you'd better come and sit."

When Li Yuanlang saw this, he immediately said: "Just listen to Xiao Fang and go and sit down."

Li Yuanlang couldn't stand it anymore and even spoke, so Section Chief Zhang sat down in his seat as required.
