Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 554: Chapter 554 Must See! The Mayor is Here!_1

”You’re going to see Bai Xiaosheng now?” Zhou Yifa was startled.

After the incident, Zhou Yifa had been extremely busy for a while, and now, at last, he had a temporary break.

He believed Mayor Dai was the same; he had just heard from the secretary that the mayor hadn’t even had a proper lunch.

Just after finishing up, Mayor Dai was going to see Bai Xiaosheng?

Even if Bai Xiaosheng was the head of a large enterprise, he wasn’t in politics! How could a mere mayor be in such a hurry to see him!

”How about, I call him and ask him to come to the municipal government office?” Zhou Yifa suggested.

”No need, I’ll go there,” Dai Mingcheng shook his head.

”But you are the mayor. It might not be appropriate for you to personally go see such a... young man,” Zhou Yifa couldn’t help saying.

He couldn’t think of a reason why the mayor absolutely had to see Bai Xiaosheng!

There was simply no need!

”I just want to talk to him face-to-face,” Dai Mingcheng said.

There was an unclear meaning in his eyes.

”Okay! I’ll arrange the car right away!” Zhou Yifa quickly nodded in agreement.

Once the leader had made a decision, if you think there’s something wrong, you can advise once, but never a second time; that’s the way of Zhou Yifa as a secretary.

”Have you called the provincial government office yet? What’s their attitude?” Zhou Yifa couldn’t help but ask tentatively before leaving.

”Criticized a bit, warned a bit, acknowledged a bit,” Dai Mingcheng said with a slight smile.

These three ”a bit” clarified everything.

”Understood!” Zhou Yifa, somewhat excited, nodded his head and hurried off.

With this, it was very likely the provincial government won’t withdraw Tianfu Wealth Management’s application qualifications!

On the way, Zhou Yifa let out a sigh of relief and laughed at himself, ”What a scare, I just called Li Feitian, with a tone both stinky and hard. When I go over, I’ll have to ease his mind!”

After Zhou Yifa left.

Dai Mingcheng also muttered to himself, ”This time, I really owe it to Bai Xiaosheng. If it hadn’t been for him, I might not have reported the situation as decisively, admitting the mistake directly to the minister. Not only did I avoid blame, but I also eliminated a hidden danger, turning misfortune into a blessing!”

Dai Mingcheng laughed.

”Bai Xiaosheng, Bai Xiaosheng, I must thank you in person!”

”Bai Xiaosheng, I must thank you in person!” At the Li Family’s place, Li Feitian, with a twisted expression, angrily shouted at Bai Xiaosheng.

The people present were all startled?

Li Feitian had simply taken a call from Secretary Zhou. Why had he suddenly turned hostile and lost his temper?

Bai Xiaosheng was also taken aback.

What exactly did Zhou Yifa say to Li Feitian over the phone that infuriated him?

”Feitian, what on earth is going on?” Li Wenzun couldn’t help frowning and shouted.

Li Feitian suppressed his anger and explained through gritted teeth, ”Grandfather, wasn’t our Tianfu Wealth Management applying to become a provincial benchmark enterprise? One of the audit requirements was innovation in product development, so today, with all good intentions, I invited Bai Xiaosheng to take a look at a new insurance product we developed to see if there was a possibility for our two companies to cooperate.”

Li Wenzun nodded.

”But who would have thought, this Bai Xiaosheng insisted that there was a problem with our product’s actuarial aspects, and he said it right in front of Zhou Ping!” Li Feitian was furious, ”How could Zhou Ping not report it to his father! ”

The words of Li Feitian caused Li Wenzun’s face to change!

If there was an issue with the content of Tianfu Wealth Management’s report to the provincial government, considering it an innovative achievement, that was indeed no small matter!

But even if there was a problem, and Bai Xiaosheng had discovered it, they should have discussed it privately. Wouldn’t it have been better to solve it behind closed doors amongst themselves?

Talking about it in front of Zhou Ping, how inappropriate!

If Secretary Zhou heard about this, the situation could get troublesome!

Li Wenzun couldn’t help glancing at Bai Xiaosheng.

”How could you let outsiders know!” Yu Qingmei also couldn’t help but exclaim, her eyes clearly filled with dissatisfaction as she looked at Bai Xiaosheng.

Many members of the Li Family were also frowning.

The Bai Family Members looked at Bai Xiaosheng, also with some surprise.

Bai Xiaosheng’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

The facts were as such, but Li Feitian’s narrative was in the style of the Spring and Autumn Annals, pushing all responsibility onto him.

”Once Zhou Ping reported it, Secretary Zhou naturally became very angry! I explained to him that we were doing this for the application, in a rush for time, and it was inevitable that there would be some oversights and that such issues were not uncommon in our industry!” Li Feitian said.

Li Wenzun as the leader, and the members of the Li Family, nodded continuously.

A thorough explanation would surely be understood by Secretary Zhou.

”Secretary Zhou is reasonable. He said he would help us resolve it, but he asked us to ensure confidentiality. He even asked this young man over the phone to help conceal it!”

Li Feitian glared at Bai Xiaosheng, ”But just now, Secretary Zhou told me in a harsh tone to immediately stop the further sale of this product and to prepare a compensation plan, while also getting ready for our enterprise to have its application qualifications revoked!”

Li Feitian’s words made the Li Family members present involuntarily gasp for air.

Li Wenzun immediately widened his eyes.

This application opportunity was a once-in-a-century stroke of luck for the Li Family. If handled correctly, it could send the Li Family soaring to great heights.

Hadn’t Secretary Zhou agreed to resolve the issue? How had things suddenly reached such an uncontrollable extent!

The Bai Family members also looked at each other in dismay.

”I asked why, and Secretary Zhou told me to ask Bai Xiaosheng! He said the root cause was with him!” Li Feitian raged, ”It must have been Bai Xiaosheng, doing something behind my back! Otherwise, a man of Secretary Zhou’s word would never go back on his promises!”

”Bai Xiaosheng, tell us, what exactly did you do! Did you leak this matter, or what! You must have done something to make Secretary Zhou angry!” Li Feitian was fuming with rage.

He blamed all the problems on Bai Xiaosheng.

As soon as Li Feitian had spoken, the Li Family members exploded.

”I knew it, the Bai Family people would never mean well!”

Yu Qingmei was the first to shout out loud, angrily pointing at Bai Xiaosheng.

”How can you do this, openly undermining my Li Family!”

”Exactly, one family sabotaging their own, despicable!”

”It must be because you’re jealous of our Li Family, so you deliberately made mischief!”

...

The Li Family members suddenly became agitated, with all sorts of accusations flying.

”Nonsense, what evidence do you have to wrongly accuse Sheng like this!”

”The way you’re speaking is too much, it has nothing to do with Sheng!”

”Before things are clear, don’t make wild accusations and wrongfully blame someone!”

...

The Bai Family members, refusing to be outdone, immediately started shouting back.

Yesterday, Bai Xiaosheng’s voice shook the Li Family, making the Bai Family stand out.

Underneath the facade of harmony, resentment lay hidden.

Like a whirlpool beneath a still lake, ready to erupt at any time, immediately churning into tempestuous waves!

This quarrel lasted for a full ten minutes!

As the emotions of both sides rose, things really became uncontrollable.

Hearing all this, even Bai Xiaosheng looked helpless.

By now, Dai Mingcheng’s car had almost reached midway.

”Enough!”

Finally, Li Wenzun shouted loudly, ”Now is not the time for arguing!”

”That’s right, now isn’t the time to point fingers. Bai Xiaosheng, as the so-called general manager, go and apologize to Secretary Zhou at once! Beg his forgiveness and urge him not to be angry!” Yu Qingmei ordered.

”Yes, go and apologize to Secretary Zhou right away!” the elder members of the Li Family ordered.

”Why should I!” Bai Minghang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly burst out.

”Indeed, why should he!” led by Bai Minghang, the Bai Family members shouted.

”Enough, stop arguing!” Li Wenzun once again slammed the table and roared.

Continuing this argument would lead nowhere!

Then, he turned to Bai Xiaosheng, trying to persuade him, ”Sheng, this matter started because of you. I believe you are a responsible person and will resolve it.”

”Big brother, you’re being unfair. It’s not clear whether this matter started because of Sheng or not.” Li Fengguan said.

”Who else could it be but him!” Yu Qingmei shouted angrily.

The three eldest started to argue.

The Bai and Li families began quarreling once again.

This couldn’t go on any longer!

Bai Xiaosheng furrowed his brows, just about to speak.

Suddenly, a servant burst in, shouting, ”There’s, there’s a visitor!”

”Not seeing anyone!” Li Wenzun glared and yelled.

”We can’t not see them, sir, the mayor is here!” the servant stammered, a look of sheer panic on his face.

The mayor!

That single word struck everyone in the room like a thunderbolt, leaving them stunned.

In the time it took to speak these words, Mayor Dai... arrived!
