Qi Tongwei: Sign-in relationship started during student days

Chapter 567 Scrooge

Zhao Anbang glanced at the few people about ten meters away from the two men, and said, "I'm also reminding you that you must be careful when dealing with capital. Although the bullets are very tempting, they are highly poisonous. If you are not careful, you will get yourself into trouble.

It's not easy for you to get to where you are today, especially since you are still so young. Your future is limitless. Don't be short-sighted."

He Anxia responded seriously: "Don't worry, Tongwei and I know what's going on."

"It's good to have an idea." Zhao Anbang nodded and asked, "How much are they planning to invest this time? I won't do it for less."

He Anxia held up four fingers and said, "Not much, just four billion."

"How much?" Zhao Anbang stopped and raised his voice suddenly. "How much did you say?"

"Four... billion."

The five people who were trailing behind stopped and looked at the two leaders in front of them in surprise.

I don’t know what the two talked about, but the provincial party committee leader suddenly became so excited.

Realizing his own loss of composure, Zhao Anbang glanced at the people behind him and resumed his pace, "Why is she so generous? Is it because of you?"

"No, no, I don't have that much face. It's Comrade Tong Wei. To be honest, her father and my father have different governing philosophies, so my relationship with her is average."

Zhao Anbang uttered an "oh" and didn't dwell on the political issues. "Why is she so close to Comrade Tong Wei? As far as I know, the market value of Longteng Group is only around 10 billion. 4 billion is probably all the liquid funds of Longteng Group."

He Anxia replied, "I'm not sure whether they have a good relationship, but it's a fact that Comrade Tongwei can make money. Basically, Longteng's investment in Comrade Tongwei has received a good return over the years. I'm afraid this is the main reason."

Zhao Anbang nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "How do you plan to spend this money? Can you give some to the other six cities?"

He Anxia was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "Governor Anbang, our Beishan City is in such a difficult situation. I still think four billion is not enough. How can we have extra money to give to others?"

Zhao Anbang's face turned serious and he criticized, "Stop talking nonsense. Don't forget, your city's financial accounts are clearly visible to us in the province. During this period, there have been dozens of discontinuous payments, plus the subsidies from above, the accounts already have more than 4 billion yuan. If you come up with another 4 billion project, you won't be afraid of being overwhelmed."

He Anxia complained, "No, Governor Anbang, aren't you stationed in our Beishan City? Why are you concerned about other sister cities?"

"It's a designated location, but I'm also the vice governor of Hanjiang. I have to care about the development of every city and I'm responsible for it."

He Anxia said, "But that money wasn't earned for free. Comrade Tongwei had to borrow and beg for favors, and he saved it with great difficulty. He saved it for big things."

Zhao Anbang sneered, "Big things? What big things require eight billion? I say, can't you be more generous? Last month in the provincial government, you asked for money, and the province directly approved ten billion for you. How come you can't get this meat out after it's in your mouth?"

He Anxia really held on tight and refused to let go, saying sternly, "Governor Anbang, it's not that I don't want to be generous, it's just that I don't have the nerve to do it. If you want a share, then go find Tong Wei. He's the mayor and he's in charge of the money."

He Anxia didn't know how much money it would cost to start Qi Tongwei's project, but he knew that this was related to the careers of both of them.

This time, the two of them are fighting a do-or-die battle. Qi Tongwei has mobilized all the connections he can and borrowed all he can. No matter what, he cannot fall behind.

"Okay, will you checkmate me?"

"Don't dare."

"I think you are very brave." Zhao Anbang said unhappily.

He Anxia didn't reply and remained silent.

Zhao Anbang laughed in anger. "Alright, look at you, you're such a miser. I'm warning you, if you spend so much money and Beishan doesn't improve, don't blame me for spanking you."

...

The commercial pedestrian circle is not newly built, but is rebuilt from an old commercial street and expanded from several nearby streets to create a commercial circle integrating shopping and dining.

It’s not big, but it’s not small either. However, with hundreds of stores popping up at once, it still attracted a lot of traffic.

The whole street is bustling with people, shops are lined up, and many shops are being renovated, creating a lively scene.

Zhao Anbang walked and looked: "How is this business?"

"Business is pretty good. Many people who come to the city will come here to shop and take a few things back."

"Honestly, how did you do it? The last time I was here was in July, and there were only a few shops here and there. You've only been in office for a little over a month, and yet you've made it so prosperous? It's not much worse than some places in the provincial capital."

He Anxia said: "This is all thanks to the investment promotion department. We have invested a lot of manpower and resources in this area."

"Really?" Zhao Anbang didn't believe it and walked into a men's clothing store called "Men's Gang".

The store is quite large, about 100 square meters. There are five after-sales staff alone, but there are fewer customers than waiters.

Seeing Zhao Anbang and his group coming in, a woman in her thirties who looked very capable came forward to greet them. "Boss, what can I do for you?"

Zhao Anbang said, "Let's just take a look around." He then asked, "Madam, how is your business?"

The woman looked Zhao Anbang up and down, then looked at the others. She felt that this group of people were not simple people. They had the same temperament as her boss and looked like leading cadres.

"Business is okay." The proprietress replied cautiously.

Zhao Anbang glanced around the store and said, "It seems like the customer flow isn't very large. How much is the monthly rent for this store?"

"More than one thousand."

"What about your employees' salaries?"

"Eight dollars a day."

Zhao Anbang nodded and walked around the store, asking about the prices of clothes from time to time.

When he walked out of the store, Zhao Anbang's face did not look very good.

He Anxia asked cautiously, "Governor Anbang, is there any problem?"

Zhao Anbang glanced at He Anxia and said, "Comrade Anxia, ​​tell me honestly, how much money has your municipal government invested in this business circle?"

He Anxia looked at Ding Yizhen, who quickly said, "We have currently invested a total of approximately 1.9 million yuan in this commercial area, mainly in the construction of roads and other infrastructure."

Zhao Anbang looked at Ding Yizhen, "One million and nine hundred thousand? Are you sure?"

"It's true."

Zhao Anbang remained calm and walked around a few more shops before confidently saying to He Anxia, ​​"Why do all these shop owners have local accents?"

He Anxia replied: "It's normal, because they are all opened by ordinary people."

"You opened it yourself?" Zhao Anbang sneered, "Then why didn't they open it before? Why did they open it as soon as you arrived?"

This question stumped He Anxia, ​​who took a long time to explain, "Maybe the government didn't pay much attention to this before, so no one wanted to open a store. Now that they see the city government's determination, everyone is also very foresighted and is planning ahead."

"Is it an advance layout or a fake project?" Zhao Anbang's smile became even colder.
