Isn't that right?
Zhao Yanan wasn't directly involved in Tianke Group's investment in Huaining, but she knew that if Tianke Group withdrew its investment, the tens of millions in funding gap wouldn't be something an ordinary person could fill. As the head of the county government, Qin Mu would definitely have to bear this responsibility!
Especially regarding the merger of the five factories, if anything went wrong, it could even become an excuse for County Party Secretary Yu Xuewen to make trouble.
In the end, Qin Mu's position as county head might really be lost!
Shouldn't he be anxious now?
"Let's eat first!"
Qin Mu comforted her, "As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for people. How can you have the strength to work if you don't eat?"
After saying that, he continued to eat heartily.
Well…
If he's not in a hurry, why should I be?
Perhaps influenced by Qin Mu's mood, Zhao Yanan simply stopped thinking about it, picked up her plate, and started eating like Qin Mu.
Within minutes, the two had finished eating and stood up to walk towards the county committee dormitory compound.
On the way, Zhao Yanan couldn't hold back any longer and asked first, "Tianke Group really withdrew its investment, what are you planning to do?"
"Then we can only find a company to take over."
Qin Mu spread his hands and said, "That's the only way. The Jianlan tea project can be postponed, but the merger of the five factories is imperative and can't be delayed. If it's delayed any longer, I definitely won't be the county head."
"Do you have a suitable company to take over?"
Zhao Yanan quickly asked.
"No!"
Qin Mu shook his head and said, "Let's take it one step at a time. We'll talk about it when we go to work tomorrow!"
Uh…
So calm?
Zhao Yanan's eyes widened. She hadn't expected that Qin Mu, who was always so composed and decisive, could say something so casual.
"Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to find a company to take over, and then you'll be kicked out of Huaining?"
Zhao Yanan asked seriously. "This is the worst-case scenario, but if it comes true, we can only accept it."
Qin Mu smiled slightly and said, "I'm not a god, and it's impossible for everything to go smoothly. I can only say that I will try my best in everything, but unexpected situations are unpredictable."
Hearing this, Zhao Yanan's eyes were filled with a strange look. She felt that something was off about these words.
The words themselves weren't wrong; it was simply about doing one's job well, but no one could predict the final outcome, and there was no way to forcibly defy fate.
But you must remember, the person in front of her was Qin Mu!
He was the chief instructor of the Flying Eagle Squadron!
He was the one who led the Flying Eagle Squadron through many seemingly impossible missions, a man who, through unwavering will in the face of adversity, overcame countless hardships and dangers, achieving victory time and time again!
How could such a person be so Zen-like, so easygoing?
It was too abnormal!
"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
Qin Mu smiled and asked, looking at Zhao Yanan's disbelieving gaze.
"The words are fine, but there's something wrong with you."
Zhao Yanan pondered for a moment, then said, "I have a feeling you already have a plan, but I don't know how you'll do it!"
"Don't think about it anymore, we'll find out tomorrow."
Qin Mu ruffled Zhao Yanan's hair and said, "Let's go back first, it's getting late!"
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Zhao Yanan readily agreed. She trusted Qin Mu unconditionally; since he wasn't in a hurry, it meant he already had a solution.
The two returned to the county committee dormitory, quickly washed up, and lay down on the bed.
Today, Zhao Yanan was unusually well-behaved, nestled in Qin Mu's arms like a kitten, incredibly docile.
...
Nothing happened that night!
Zhao Yanan got up at six o'clock as usual. This time, Qin Mu didn't linger in bed and got up to wash as well.
The reason he usually couldn't get up was to please Zhao Yanan!
Last night was so quiet, Qin Mu naturally got plenty of rest and was able to get up early.
"How about... I ask my dad to inquire if there are any suitable companies in the family to take over the project in Huaining County?"
Zhao Yanan hesitated for a moment and said, "Many of my relatives are in business; they have the financial resources."
"No need!"
Qin Mu waved his hand slightly and said, "I'll handle this matter. Just go to work and don't worry about it."
"Do you really think I have no connections at all?"
This...
That seems to be true!
Zhao Yanan knew Qin Mu's identity best. He was a direct descendant of the Qin family; if word got out, many companies in Beijing might flock to him.
A project worth tens of millions was indeed nothing.
Of course, this was all predicated on Qin Mu voluntarily revealing his identity. Otherwise, who would know he was hiding in such a small county town?
"Since you have ideas, I won't interfere any further," Zhao Yanan said.
"But remember, if you encounter any difficulties, come to me immediately. I'm your strongest support. If I can't handle it, there's the Zhao family!"
"Okay, I'll remember."
Qin Mu was deeply moved and nodded heavily, watching her leave.
Turning back towards the county government compound, Qin Mu's mind was preoccupied with one thing: Was Tianke Group, or Han Tianpeng, really going to withdraw its investment?
The other party had spoken so confidently yesterday, but Qin Mu still found it somewhat strange.
As a businessman, did he really want to offend him and the government behind him?
Tens of millions was indeed a large sum, but for a Fortune 500 company like Tianke Group, it was really nothing.
Moreover, this investment has only just begun; whether it will be profitable or a loss is anyone's guess. Why would Han Tianpeng choose this moment to withdraw his investment?
Qin Mu vaguely felt that the other party was putting pressure on him, forcing him to back down, so that Tianke Group could gain the upper hand in future cooperation.
But Qin Mu could not agree to this.
As the county head, he couldn't bow down to a company, a businessman.
This was a matter of principle!
Since Han Tianpeng wanted to play, Qin Mu would play along!
Entering his office, Qin Mu pulled a business card from his drawer.
Xie Changfeng, General Manager of Jiangzhou Xie's Real Estate!
"Mr. Xie, this is Qin Mu!"
Qin Mu dialed the number directly and said, "I have a project I'd like you to come over with. We can talk and see if there's an opportunity for cooperation."
"Sure, I'll wait for you in my office."
"No problem!"
...
After a brief conversation, Qin Mu hung up. He didn't have many business connections, mainly because he didn't want to use his family's influence. Xie Changfeng was someone he knew personally.
And since it was a local Jiangzhou company, it would be easier to talk.
They had met before, and from Xie Changfeng's words, Xie's Real Estate was also considering a transformation. He could take this opportunity to inquire; perhaps he could gain some unexpected insights!
Furthermore, Qin Mu needed to pass this message on to Zhao Yanan!
Through Zhao Yanan to pass it on to Tian Weiwei, only in this way could he probe the true intentions of Tianke Group.
