Song Yingjun woke up, but Qin Yu ignored him for the time being and was about to leave the person to talk.

...

In a hotel in Yi City, District 5, Han Sanqian stood in front of the mirror and was wearing a tie.

"James met with the people from No. 57 last night, as well as people from the Business Department." A young man next to him said, "I haven't found out what to talk about yet."

"Yes." Han Sanqian nodded.

"Mr. Han, the group headquarters in our second district came from a report last month, saying that the group will face more than 10 million in economic penalties due to tax issues." The middle-aged man frowned and said with a frown: "If you look at this matter alone, there is nothing unusual, but if James suddenly comes to District 5 to talk to you, it seems a little wrong."

Han Sanqian tied his tie, looked at himself, who was already gray in the mirror, and replied softly: "You can receive it when you come, you can't hide it."

Middle-aged man thought for a while and said, "Did we let some of our actions on the Salt Island let the upper classes of the EU region know?"

Han Sanqian paused: "The root of the problem is not here. After meeting him at noon, let's make a judgment."

"Okay." The middle-aged man responded.

...

At about 12:00 noon, in the private room of a rotating restaurant in a building in Yi City, Han Sanqian smiled and said to a blond and blue-eyed middle-aged man, "Long time no see, Mr. James."

"Long time no see, Han." After shaking hands with Han Sanqian, James bent down and sat at the top of the dining table, and said in a hearty voice: "This damn weather has frozen my dentures, which is really unbearable."

Han Sanqian smiled: "This place must not be comparable to your sky garden, and the basic conditions in District 5 are still worse."

While the two were talking, the middle-aged man who was accompanying Han Sanqian next to him immediately increased the warm air conditioner.

James took out a small exquisite iron box from his suit pocket, opened it and pinched two white pills, and put it in his mouth: "I haven't drunk alcohol for a long time. It's a heart problem. I'm very happy to see you today. Let's drink less."

Han Sanqian intervened and looked at him: "Okay, I'll have some drinks with you."

The middle-aged man next to him heard the sound and immediately poured wine for the two of them.

During the meal, let’s not mention the polite greetings for the time being. After everyone ate some food and drank some red wine, Han Sanqian asked with a smile: “Mr. James, are you here to talk to me this time?”

"Yes." James communicated with Han Sanqian in Chinese throughout the whole process, and his attitude was very direct.

"You said, I'll listen."

"The second district wants to establish a new commercial center, with a total investment of about 2 billion." James responded with a smile: "I was unfortunately assigned to this project."

Han Sanqian looked at him, paused and asked, "Can I help you?"

"The issue of funding." James spread his hands and stared at Han Sanqian and replied: "I hope you can make some investments in the business center project, which will cost about 200 million yuan."

Han Sanqian paused for a moment and immediately replied: "No problem."

"Han, you are really my best friend." James responded with an exaggerated expression: "I will ask the project team to provide you with the most professional business plan and a report on interest feedback."

"I won't look at this." Han Sanqian waved his hand with a smile: "I vote for this just because we are friends. I trust you very much, Mr. James."

"No one can compare to the friendship between us." James smiled and picked up the wine: "Cheers!"

After saying that, the two of them drank it all in one go.

Han Sanqian put down his cup, pondered for a while, and continued, "Mr. James, I won't hide it from you. In fact, I'm short of funds recently. Some friends in District 7 also want to pull me to invest in Nanshanghai, so the 200 million funds may have to be earned in batches."

James blinked and asked with interest: "Do you have a business to do in District 7?"

"Yes." Han Sanqian replied with a faint smile: "We have known the new mayor of Nanhu for a long time. He is my good friend."

James' eyes were bright: "Han, I have never heard you mention this."

After the words came, the middle-aged man interjected: "Mr. James, the thinking of you Europeans is that you can live in any relationship you need. It emphasizes immediate profit and win-win cooperation: while our Chinese philosophy of dealing with things is that there is no relationship in this relationship. The friends you make now are far less precious than friendship when you share hardships. When the new mayor of Nanhu was still the director of the Economic Affairs Office, he received help from the Han Group... This way of dealing with things is called pregnancy and nourishment!"

James nodded slowly: "It's a bit profound, I...I can't quite understand."

"Hehe, drink, drink!" Han Sanqian greeted with a smile.

...

Twenty minutes later, the banquet ended and James left.

Han Sanqian and middle-aged lived in the car and returned to the hotel together.

"Damn it, it costs 200 million to open your mouth. This is a complete robbery." The middle-aged man frowned and cursed: "These European devils are so realistic."

After Gu Tai'an reached the top of the eighth district, Han Sanqian's biggest political reliance in the three major districts completely collapsed. In this way, his political role became very weak in the eyes of the EU.

The destruction of Tang and Zhang directly led to Han Sanqian being unable to play the role of a political bridge between the EU and the eighth districts, so... he has already reached the verge of being abandoned.

Once a businessman is involved in politics, few people can escape successfully. James warns Han Sanqian to ask for 200 million yuan in project funds, which is a very dangerous signal. If he does not save himself, he may be killed in the next step.

In recent years, the wealth that Han Group earned in the EU may be exhausted in minutes.

Can he not understand this signal when Han Sanqian was a red-topped businessman for his whole life? In fact, at this time, he was a little envious of Qin Yu. Although the latter's rise was full of bumpy roads and he knelt down many times along the way, but now he has a place to live. He who has huge wealth still wants to stick to politics, and the latter always holds the power of life and death for his role.

Inside the car, Han Sanqian turned his head to look at the middle-aged man and said softly: "Salt Island is the key to whether we can usher in the next spring. If we can't achieve the effect, we will die in this winter."

"Yes." Middle-aged nodded.

"...Song Yingjun's arrest...is a bad sign." Han Sanqian frowned and said, "You check the details."

"Yeah, I understand!" middle-aged man nodded.

...
