Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 917: Chapter 917: You Want to Poach Someone? I Don’t Agree!

In Yunhai City, inside the mayor’s office, Bai Xiaosheng was having an animated conversation with Mayor Chu Xingyun.

During the conversation, Bai Xiaosheng felt that Chu Xingyun was indeed a leader with great resolve, foresight, and the ability to heed constructive advice.

Therefore, he did not hesitate to offer his suggestions.

In fact, the development of a city is an extremely complex topic.

From experts and scholars, down to the folks on the street, many have left their suggestions all over the internet.

Of course, as a city mayor, Chu Xingyun was too busy to find the time, let alone the possibility of collecting all the vast information, sifting through it to distill the essence.

Even if Chu Xingyun had established a special research team dedicated to this task around the clock, it would not have yielded immediate results.

But Bai Xiaosheng was different.

Whenever Chu Xingyun mentioned a certain point, Red Lotus could search the entire web for relevant views and comments, select the best answers, and Bai Xiaosheng, combining the content of their conversation with his own thoughts, would pass them on to Chu Xingyun.

In this way, it seemed as if Bai Xiaosheng was just one person talking to Mayor Chu Xingyun,

But in reality, Bai Xiaosheng was representing the voice of the entire Yunhai!

Therefore, all sorts of viewpoints were incredibly incisive, cutting straight to the core!

Chu Xingyun nodded repeatedly while listening, absolutely thrilled by these suggestions!

Ji Mingyang, standing by, was also listening intently, his gaze sparkling as he couldn’t help but stare at Bai Xiaosheng time and again.

Every time he discussed major topics with Bai Xiaosheng, Ji Mingyang found his perspectives to be exceptionally brilliant.

”This kid is nothing short of a prodigy,” he thought.

Indeed, inside Ji Mingyang’s heart, he had pegged Bai Xiaosheng as such, even jokingly considering sending him to a medical school for dissection to study the structure of a prodigy’s brain.

Of course, this also reflected Ji Mingyang’s admiration for Bai Xiaosheng.

Chu Xingyun listened with rapt attention, continuously bringing up new topics to discuss and exchange views with Bai Xiaosheng.

Bai Xiaosheng spoke fluently for over an hour, and in the midst of numerous topics, his thoughts and viewpoints showed no signs of drying up.

This aspect profoundly impressed both mayors.

Ji Mingyang too pondered which of the ideas Bai Xiaosheng discussed with Chu Xingyun could also be suitable for Zhongjing.

Eventually, Bai Xiaosheng paused, not because he had nothing more to say, but because he needed a drink of water.

His voice had become hoarse from speaking so much, almost like smoke was coming out of his throat.

Taking advantage of this moment, Chu Xingyun, with warm enthusiasm, said to Bai Xiaosheng, ”Bai, why don’t you consider becoming my staff officer? I’ll offer you the most favorable treatment! And the best prospects for your future!”

By this time, Chu Xingyun was indeed feeling a desperate eagerness to find talent!

Bai Xiaosheng was taken aback and couldn’t help but smile.

However, before he could respond, Ji Mingyang, who was leisurely drinking tea, spoke unhurriedly, ”Whatever conditions Chu Xingyun offers you, I, Ji Mingyang, will double them!”

If you can really pull Bai Xiaosheng into politics, do you think I’d let you have your way!

Ji Mingyang gave Chu Xingyun a cold snort.

Chu Xingyun didn’t look at Ji Mingyang but continued eagerly, ”Bai, have you ever considered settling down in Yunhai? Look, this place is the most pleasant to live in the south, a city known for longevity, and your parents could also move here. I fully support this...”

Chu Xingyun began to play the family card.

The municipal government has always been generous with introducing talents.

If Bai Xiaosheng agreed to come, housing, hukou, everything could be tailored to suit him.

”Sheng, we Chinese value the idea of returning to one’s roots. Zhongjing is your home; you can’t forget your hometown. We don’t do disloyalty. No matter how good it is outside, it’s not your native soil. If you return to your home to develop, I’ll definitely give you the best conditions,” Ji Mingyang said confidently, patting his chest.

Ji Mingyang had undercut Chu Xingyun twice, and Chu Xingyun was getting annoyed.

”Ji, are you trying to mess with me deliberately?” exclaimed Chu Xingyun angrily. ”It’s time you left, a mayor who’s not thinking of hurrying back to work but just loitering around here!”

Chu Xingyun had effectively issued an eviction notice.

A few hours earlier, he was dissatisfied that Ji had not stayed longer, but now he was ready to ”chase people out.”

Ji Mingyang’s eyelids twitched, and with a cold laugh, he said, ”Old Chu, I was the one who introduced this young man to you! Not only did you listen to his advice, but now you want to poach him?”

”I don’t agree!” declared Ji Mingyang firmly.

”I poached someone from your city government? I talked to him, what does this have to do with you?” Mayor Chu Xingyun said angrily.

”He’s from Zhongjing, you poached my Zhongjing person, tell me it’s not my business!” Ji Mingyang also said angrily.

The two mayors were getting more and more intense in their argument.

Bai Xiaosheng really didn’t feel it was appropriate to interrupt.

Outside the door, Secretary Song He got a shock when he heard the quarrel inside, and carefully pushed the door open. When he heard what the quarrel was about, he was surprised that they were fighting over Bai Xiaosheng!

”My goodness, Mayor Chu has... never been like this before!” Song He couldn’t help but be astonished in silence.

”Mayor?”

Taking advantage of a brief lull in the argument, Song He cautiously raised his voice.

”What!” Mayor Chu Xingyun and Ji Mingyang said in unison, both glaring at Song He simultaneously.

Startled, Song He silently lamented his misfortune.

He hadn’t done anything to deserve the angry stares of both mayors at the same time.

”It’s time for lunch,” Song He said cautiously.

Mayor Chu Xingyun and Ji Mingyang both glanced at the time, indeed, it was already noon.

”Is it ready?” Mayor Chu Xingyun asked.

”It’s ready,” Song He quickly replied.

As a mayor’s secretary, how could he not have this much foresight?

He had informed old Li at the canteen early in the morning.

The two mayors and Bai Xiaosheng shared a table, three dishes and a soup, a working meal.

Their two secretaries and the people from Bai Xiaosheng’s side shared another table, also with a uniform standard.

Do not exceed the rules, do not go beyond the standard, this was the tone set by Mayor Chu Xingyun. Everyone had to follow it, including himself, even when guests were present.

”We can’t treat you to something fancy, but our working meal here is quite tasty! Let’s talk while we eat!” Mayor Chu Xingyun said with a smile.

”Sheng, you shouldn’t underestimate Mayor Chu’s simple meal. The people he invites to eat with him are few and far between!” Ji Mingyang said with a smile.

Ji Mingyang finally said something that made sense, and Mayor Chu Xingyun snorted and smiled as he stood up to lead the way.

Ji Mingyang and Bai Xiaosheng stood up and followed.

Zhang Meng and Lin Weiwei had already been taken there by someone Secretary Song He sent early on.

On the way to the canteen, during such a short span of time, Mayor Chu Xingyun didn’t forget to discuss with Bai Xiaosheng a minor issue in Yunhai City’s urban planning.

Bai Xiaosheng was naturally more than happy to exchange opinions with a mayor.

Although he could shock the mayor with Red Lotus, the mayor’s angles and methods of thinking on many issues also profoundly shook Bai Xiaosheng.

So this is how those in high positions think about issues!

All of this was incredibly valuable knowledge, something you couldn’t find by searching online!

Bai was absorbing it eagerly like a sponge.

When they got to the canteen, they saw the three dishes and a soup, which although common, were well-balanced between meat and vegetables and tasted very good.

Bai Xiaosheng ate with relish.

Secretary Song He went to join Zhang Meng and the others. During the meal, he was called out by a junior secretary.

”Secretary Song, someone’s looking for Mayor Chu.”

”Who is it?” Secretary Song He asked.

”Han Chengren from Yunyu Industrial,” the junior secretary replied.

Secretary Song He was startled.

Him?

Isn’t he Han Minghao’s father?
