"Secretary, you're looking for me."

Song Guanchao sat on the sofa, sounding casual.

Wu Qiangwei said, "Secretary Lu contacted me tonight."

"Does he have something to discuss?"

"The financial situation is tight, and he hopes that during this investment attraction, we won't raise too much funds."

"What does that mean?"

What does it mean, not to raise too much?

The investment attraction meeting is originally for financing.

If we don't raise funds, why am I doing this?

"What is the total construction period for the high-speed rail project?"

"Three years."

"He means financing by year."

Song Guanchao understood.

This is a concern that bringing in over 10 billion in investment might be too much for the finances to handle.

Or rather, too much for Mayor Zheng to handle.

Song Guanchao did not immediately respond, contemplating whether or not to agree.

The total investment for the high-speed rail project is 18.3 billion, with Lingjiang responsible for 9.15 billion. Counting demolition funds and removal fees, as well as other related expenses, it would need to spend around 15 billion.

Assuming it's spread over three years, it's 5 billion a year.

Considering the difficulty of raising funds, annual financing is most suitable.

Whether it's 15 billion or 5 billion, the final repayment would be the city's responsibility.

As long as Zheng Bihui remains in Lingjiang for even a day, he wouldn't dare create difficulties in this regard.

Once the first funding arrives, the city must repay stably.

"Let's finance annually then."

Ensuring there's no trickery involved, Song Guanchao nodded in agreement with this plan.

He leaned on his knee, ready to stand up, when he suddenly caught Wu Qiangwei looking deeply troubled.

Curious, he asked, "Secretary, we gained a major victory this time, why do you seem unhappy?"

"The financial and public security are all under their control. One demolition fund almost made me stumble, how can this be considered a major victory?"

Wu Qiangwei shook her head. On the surface, they seemed to have an advantage.

But in reality, Mayor Zheng and Secretary Lu were hardly affected.

Their biggest loss was just being in a bad mood.

Song Guanchao said, "The finance bureau is now under the Secretary's control, no matter what Mayor Zheng plans for the future, at least we can get firsthand information."

"As for Director Qin..."

This is truly difficult.

Director Qin was originally like Secretary Wang, impartial to both sides.

But since Wu Qiangwei took office, she intentionally promoted Liang Jianfeng.

On top of that, Liang Jianfeng is capable, consistently making achievements.

It's obvious to anyone that Liang Jianfeng is the next Director.

In such circumstances, even if Director Qin actively defects, Wu Qiangwei wouldn't trust him.

So, he switched over to Mayor Zheng.

It was unavoidable.

Even if Director Qin initially offered allegiance to Wu Qiangwei, she wouldn't employ or dare to employ him.

This guy has a ton of issues.

Both Wu Qiangwei and Song Guanchao have principles; once he joins and issues are discovered, should they act or not act?

"At the foot of the mountain, there will surely be a path. Secretary, don't overthink it, rest early."

"You're quite optimistic."

Wu Qiangwei smiled with relief.

"Secretary, I'm heading out now."

Song Guanchao got up, and as he brushed past her, Wu Qiangwei suddenly caught a whiff of fragrance from him.

A woman's fragrance.

Wu Qiangwei raised her brows slightly, noticing that he had buttoned one of his shirt buttons incorrectly.

...

Upon returning to the hotel, Lin Wanqiu had indeed not yet fallen asleep.

Song Guanchao undressed and went to bed, playing with her body while pondering about the matter.

"What are you thinking about so deeply?"

"I'm thinking about how to remove a Public Security Bureau Chief."

"Huh?"

Lin Wanqiu was taken aback, "That Director Qin?"

"Yes."

"Did he offend you?"

"Him offending me is one thing, mainly he sided with the wrong team. It's affecting the Secretary's future."

"Affecting the Secretary's future means affecting my future. Do you think I should take him out?"

Song Guanchao spoke calmly, as if discussing a countryside stray dog rather than a Public Security Bureau Chief.

Those who don't know him might think he's boasting.

Lin Wanqiu knows him well, understanding how powerful he is.

If he wants to remove Director Qin, he certainly can.

The question is just how to do it.

The simplest way is to find his blackmail material.

This guy surely has plenty of blackmail material, but to find a chief's blackmail isn't just about sending a few people to follow him.

Without knowing anything, sending more people is useless.

At the very least, they should know which aspect this guy has issues with.

For instance, economic problems.

How does he embezzle?

Through which channels?

If it's like Liang Hao, using some convoluted ways to make money, it really is difficult to deal with.

He's dealt with Director Qin multiple times, and his impression is very straightforward: dumb!

This person has no brains.

He surely can't come up with any clever methods to make money.

But if he can't think of them, those making money with him surely can.

Finding his blackmail in a short time isn't that easy.

Sss~

Deep in thought, Song Guanchao didn't notice when Lin Wanqiu snuck into the covers.

She only revealed it when her small mouth wrapped around, swallowing and spitting, did he notice.

Feeling invigorated, Song Guanchao suddenly thought of a name.

Tu Zhaorui!

He remembered Director Qin used to work in Dujiang City.

Moreover, Hou Wen is He Sen's man.

He Sen has always maintained contact with Director Qin.

Tu Zhaorui might know something about Director Qin!

With his thoughts cleared, Song Guanchao suddenly felt excited.

He pulled off the covers, seeing Lin Wanqiu's puffed cheeks, he lifted her body.

With a touch, it was wet below.

"Oh dear." Lin Wanqiu shyly clenched her legs.

Song Guanchao howled like a wolf, grabbing her ankles and placing them on his shoulders, steadying himself and rising swiftly, filling her completely.

...

Time passed day by day.

Song Guanchao did not immediately contact Tu Zhaorui.

It couldn't be explained over the phone.

Besides, what he had to do was topple a high-ranking City Bureau Director.

He's dealt with Tu Zhaorui before; this person is meticulous and as devious as Secretary Lu.

Dealing with him requires caution to avoid leaving leverage.

So, to discuss, a face-to-face meeting is necessary.

Today is the 28th, only a few days away from the investment attraction meeting.

He plans to visit Guangyue City after the investment meeting for a detailed discussion.

Just uncertain if Tu Zhaorui would agree to meet him.

Soon, it was October 31st.

Tomorrow, the investment attraction meeting will be held.

Today is the weekend, Song Guanchao came to the City Committee to work overtime, having flipped through everyone in the planning group.

From morning till late afternoon, Song Guanchao reviewed the conference details for tomorrow, confirming that there were no omissions.

But unsure if someone would cause trouble.

To ensure stability, he arrived at the City Government to see Mayor Zheng before the close of business.

"Mayor Zheng, these are all the details for tomorrow's investment attraction meeting."

"I trust Secretary Song's capability." He didn't look at the documents.

Song Guanchao smiled, "My skills are limited, after all, some accidents are beyond my control."

"For example, if tomorrow Mayor Zheng suddenly has something come up and can't attend."

Zheng Bihui suppressed his displeasure and said, "Such a major event, once set, will not change."

He didn't want to break relations with Song Guanchao now.

Breaking off would be bad for both sides.

Song Guanchao chuckled, "That's good."

Picking up the documents, he halted at the door and said, "Tomorrow's investment attraction meeting is crucial for Secretary Wu."

"To ensure the meeting runs smoothly, I've prepared two loan contracts."

"One at the normal interest rate, the other at the 24% maximum interest rate."

"So, I hope nothing unexpected happens tomorrow."

"I believe Mayor Zheng wouldn't want any surprises either."
