nReporter Liu turned around and looked at Sun Chengfu in surprise. “We still have to pay for it ourselves?”

n

nIt was the first time he had encountered something like this!

n

nIn the past, when they came down for inspection, they were always well-treated. Everything was thoroughly prepared!

n

nForget about bringing them to the big canteen to eat, they even had to pay for it themselves?

n

nThe others also had the same thoughts as Reporter Liu. They all felt that Sun Chengfu was very bad at handling matters!

n

nSun Chengfu chuckled and said, “No matter who comes here to eat, they will have to pay. It’s the same even if our boss comes!”

n

nIn the end, Division Chief Li paid for everyone. He found out that the entire set of dishes cost only one yuan. It was simply too cheap.

n

nThe group of them sat down. Division Chief Li looked at the pile of food and felt very complicated. He finished the food without saying a word.

n

nBefore leaving, Division Chief Li said to Sun Chengfu, “You guys have done well. Your boss is very far-sighted. I’m very curious about him. I hope to get to know him someday!”

n

nSun Chengfu smiled and replied, “I’ll definitely tell our boss! You can come again when you’re free. I’ll introduce you to him!”

n

n…

n

nAfter sending them off, Sun Chengfu went to Xie Zhou’s house and relayed Division Chief Li’s words to him.

n

nXie Zhou didn’t have any reaction. He had no intention of getting to know this Division Chief.

n

n“If they come again, you’ll have to deal with them.”

n

nSun Chengfu did not have any objections to receiving the leaders. He was previously the village chief and had dealt with many such things. Now, it was naturally not a difficult matter for him.

n

nSun Chengfu said in a self-deprecating manner, “Those who don’t know would think that I’m the big boss of the coal mine!”

n

n…

n

nIn the office of the chairman of Changqing Enterprise in Nanping County.

n

nZhao Changqing sat by a French window and looked at the scenery of Nanping County.

n

nAssistant Wang handed him a cup of tea. He sipped it leisurely and squinted his eyes in enjoyment before letting out a sigh.

n

nThen, he said to Reporter Liu, who was sitting opposite him, “Reporter Liu, try it. How does this tea taste compared to the last time?”

n

nAfter Reporter Liu drank it, he complimented, “The tea that is in President Zhao’s collection must be good tea. I don’t know much about it, so I don’t dare to evaluate it!”

n

nZhao Changqing laughed loudly. He was obviously very happy hearing his compliment.

n

nThen, he asked, “Reporter Liu, what was the result of your trip to Shanbai Village? You’ve been back for a few days, but there’s still no news from Division Chief Li. What happened?”

n

nReporter Liu took out a stack of photos from his pocket and handed them to Zhao Changqing.

n

nZhao Changqing took it and took a look. His eyes immediately widened.

n

nReporter Liu said, “We took all these photos at the coal mine in Shanbai Village!”

n

nIn the photo, there was a track which was located below the coal mine, an elevator, an exhaust pipe, a beam, and so on.

n

nZhao Changqing flipped through the photos quickly, and his expression became more and more strange.

n

nAfter a while, he said regretfully, “What a waste, what a waste! All of these cost money! This exhaust pipe, this elevator, they’re even from a famous brand…”

n

nReporter Liu did not understand what Zhao Changqing was thinking. He did not seem angry but excited?

n

nZhao Changqing was still staring at the photo. “There’s no need for this exhaust pipe…”

n

n“And this elevator. A simple cage lifter can totally replace an elevator. There isn’t a need for this many beams…”

n

n“It’s just a small private coal mine, but it looks like a state-owned coal mine. It’s too extravagant!”

n

nZhao Changqing had a fanatic look in his eyes. “When I get this coal mine, I’ll sell the elevator for money. Also, there’s that exhaust pipe. It’s all money…”

n

nReporter Liu’s forehead was covered in sweat. He reminded him softly, “President Zhao, we didn’t find any loopholes in the coal mine in Shanbai Village. Division Chief Li said he can’t handle their coal mine…”

n

nZhao Changqing was stunned. Then, he became furious. “What did you say?”
