The Beauties Help Me Become the No.1 Official

Chapter 448: Chapter 448: Old Stories from Years Ago

In front of the tea seats on the second floor, Lin Fan sat on the left, Gao Shan on the right, and as a tea artist,

Tang Xiaoshuang naturally took the middle seat. She performed the tea washing and steeping smoothly and

soon presented two cups of tea to them.

"Mayor Lin really has taste, to have found such a good tea artist. But | wonder why you thought of opening a tea

house in Red Flag County. Wouldn't it be better to have it in the city?"

Holding the tea cup, Gao Shan cautiously inquired.

"It's because the leadership hopes to attract investments smoothly and ensure the safety of your future

investments that they stationedin Red Flag Town as the Deputy County Magistrate. The official transfer order

is still in process, so | haven't announced it yet."

Hearing this, Gao Shan’s eyes widened in surprise.

"Then congratulations to Mayor Lin... No,, congratulations to County Magistrate Lin on the promotion. | always

said County Magistrate Lin is a real standout. Only a few months as a mayor and already promoted so quickly,

your future is boundless."

"It’s all about serving the people. | am just a screw, doing whatever is needed wherever it's needed."

Seeing the light in Gao Shan’s eyes, Lin Fan understood what he was thinking and brought up, "By the way, |

remember Goldman Sachs Group has two mining sites in Red Flag County, right?"

"Yes, one gold mine and one coal mine, both still being mined."

Gao Shan quickly nodded.

"And Mr. Huo Ben has shares in those, right?"

Lin Fan gradually steered the conversation towards the main topic.

"Of course, in Red Flag County, whether big or small, if a mine does not collaborate with Huo Ben's Jinniu Mining

Company, it’s basically unprotected and can’t operate. But since Goldman Sachs Group is considered a major

group in the city and the mining started before Huo Ben rose to prominence, we initially partnered with Wang

Liyou. However, everyone knew who the real boss was behind the scenes. After Wang Liyou fled abroad following

sissues, the mines went to Huo Ben's hands. But the specifics are handled by my stepmother; | only know

roughly what's happening."

Gao Shan recounted everything he knew while the nWang Liyou was the second tLin Fan heard it. Wang

Liyou was Zhao Chuanchun’s former proxy who besides managing mines ventured into real estate, developing

many residential complexes in Red Flag County, which later faced issues of forced demolitions, incomplete

construction, and quality problems, and eventually fled abroad.

"The waters are indeed deep in Red Flag County."

Lin Fan took a sip of his tea and said, "But you can relax. This development project is led by the provincial

government and backed by the city government. You can go ahead boldly. If there are any issues, feel free to

cto me."

"We will rely on County Magistrate Lin in the future. Goldman Sachs Group will certainly be your strongest

supporter."

After Gao Shan exchanged a few courtesies, he stood up and left the building. Lin Fan naturally did not see him

off but continued to sit there sipping his tea. Soon, he heard footsteps on the stairs, and Zhu Zhixuan ran up in a

bit of a panic, glanced at Tang Xiaoshuang, and hesitated.

"It’s okay, tell me, how much did he pay for the membership card?"

Lin Fan had guessed that the other party would definitely buy a membership card, which also counted as an

indirect way of giving money.

"Two million..."

Zhu Zhixuan said this with a bit of a tremor, not daring to accept this amount if Lin Fan hadn't instructed her

beforehand to accept whatever the membership amount.

"Not too much."

Lin Fan was quite satisfied with this outcome, as the bidding had not even started, and this was purely Gao

Shan'’s gesture. He pinched Zhu Zhixuan’s chin, "Now that the store has money, go buy a car. Nothing too flashy,

around three hundred thousand should be enough for daily commuting and running errands. Use the rest

however you'd like. Oh, Da Xiaoshuang’s monthly pay is twenty thousand each, and since they performed well

today, give each of them a twenty thousand bonus."

"Boss, that’s too much... We didn’t do anything, to give us so much money... it's not right!"

Tang Xiaoshuang hurriedly nervously declined.

"Why isn’t it right? | can be generous when | have money!"

Lin Fan wrapped his arms around Zhu Zhixuan: "See? | told you | could support this shop. But | might be quite

busy soon, so buying a car will also make it easier for you to go back and helplook after my parents, right,

Lin Family's daughter-in-law?"

"I... understand... I'll transfer the rest to your card since you might need more money."

Zhu Zhixuan snuggled into Lin Fan’s embrace, still finding it hard to believe this was real.

"| trust you to handle my finances."

Lin Fan kissed Zhu Zhixuan'’s cheek, and today’s two million was just the beginning; in the future, the amount

this tea shop could handle was unimaginable.

"Okay... I'll manage your money well."

Such trust touched Zhu Zhixuan deeply, as where a man’s money is, there his heart will be too.

"Alright, | need to go and handle sthings. | might not have tto cby tonight. If anything comes up,

callanytime. Of course, continue to process membership cards as they cbut make sure to take down the

names."

After pinching Zhu Zhixuan'’s cheek, Lin Fan then stepped out. Having settled her matters, he now had another

beauty to attend to; thus, he needed to check on Bai Xue, who had reported today.
