Chapter 1956: Chapter 1956

The unexpected visit of Wei Shoucheng did not surprise Wu Qiangwei.

She asked Shu Xue to invite him in.

During the early days of her tenure in Jiangzhou City, Wu Qiangwei had specifically gone down for several surveys and research, and had also visited Wei Shoucheng’s company.

However, Wei Shoucheng did not personally receive her.

Wu Qiangwei didn’t think much of it; for such a big entrepreneur like Wei Shoucheng, even if the Governor goes over personally, he might not appear.

Moreover, the purpose of the research was to understand the company’s operational status and ask if they needed any help from the City Government, rather than showcasing power through the other party’s flattery and humility and gaining psychological satisfaction.

Wei Shoucheng’s secretary didn’t come in with him, and Shu Xue left after serving tea.

"I heard the city is focusing on supporting the industrial park. I have several companies undergoing adjustments. Can Mayor Wu introduce the person in charge of the industrial park?" Wei Shoucheng’s words were clearly a friendly gesture.

He owned countless enterprises, offering a few to enter the industrial park as a favor to her.

Of course, Wu Qiangwei knew that his true goal was the evidence Jiang Heng gave to Song Guanchao.

However, Song Guanchao had already said that he would not hand over the evidence.

"The industrial park is currently under the responsibility of Director Song. Chairman Wei, please wait, and I’ll have Director Song come over."

"Alright." Wei Shoucheng nodded with a smile.

Song Guanchao received the call and put down his work.

He thought Wei Shoucheng would have to wait a few more days, not expecting him early in the morning.

When he arrived at the office, he saw Secretary Liu. He didn’t know this guy but cast a polite smile anyway.

Entering the office, looking at the middle-aged man, this must be Wei Shoucheng.

Having money is nice; someone over fifty looks like they’re in their forties, probably spending astronomical sums on their health each year.

"Director Song, this is Chairman Wei of Hong’an Real Estate." Wu Qiangwei introduced.

"Hello, Chairman Wei."

Song Guanchao nodded to him, and Wei Shoucheng was not pretentious, standing up to shake hands.

Wu Qiangwei told him what Wei Shoucheng had just mentioned, and Song Guanchao pulled out a business card: "Chairman Wei, have them contact me directly."

After speaking, he stood up: "Mayor Wu, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave."

A trace of helplessness flashed in Wu Qiangwei’s eyes; this guy really gave no face to Wei Shoucheng.

Wei Shoucheng was surprised for a moment, then smiled and looked at him meaningfully.

This young man has quite the attitude.

He had worked his way through the business world for many years and dealt with all sorts of officials; he had met people like Song Guanchao before.

However, that was before his business took off.

Since his wealth snowballed to the top echelon, no one dared to treat him like this anymore.

"Ignorance."

That was his assessment of Song Guanchao.

The more ignorant a person is, the more arrogant they become.

Seemingly full of life and youthful arrogance, yet in reality, they have a narrow mindset, lacking clear understanding of themselves and society.

Wei Shoucheng didn’t get angry; he had seen many such young people and knew how to handle this kind of ignorant yet confident youth.

After he left, Wei Shoucheng drank the warm tea and also got up to leave.

When they had walked some distance from the office, Wei Shoucheng said, "Where is Director Song’s office?"

Secretary Liu replied, "On the first floor."

He then led the way.

Walking down the stairs to the first floor, through the corridor, they arrived at a light brown wooden door.

The sign on the door read "City Government Office."

Knock, knock.

Secretary Liu knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Secretary Liu turned the doorknob, gently pushed it open, and stepped aside.

Wei Shoucheng walked in and said, "Director Song, am I disturbing you?"

"Why has Chairman Wei come?" Song Guanchao feigned surprise, went over to shake his hand again, acting overly flattered.

"Please, Chairman Wei, have a seat."

Song Guanchao took a tea can from the bookshelf, grabbed a handful and tossed it into a disposable paper cup, then picked up the hot water kettle from the floor, brewed it, and placed it in front of him: "The tea is ordinary, Chairman Wei, hope you don’t mind."

Wei Shoucheng remained silent, waiting until he sat down before saying, "I heard about yesterday’s incident. You did nothing wrong in this matter."

Song Guanchao was stunned, seemingly not expecting him to bring it up so bluntly, hurriedly smiling: "I was impulsive too, didn’t foresee the misunderstanding. If I had known someone had been stirring things up, it wouldn’t have happened."

Wei Shoucheng said, "I heard from Ze Jun that you have some things concerning him. Can you give them to me?"

"Not possible."

"Hmm?"

Wei Shoucheng was taken aback, instinctively blurting out, "What?"

He was rejected?

Song Guanchao said, "Don’t worry, Chairman Wei. The items are safe with me."

Wei Shoucheng chuckled, realizing he needed to reassess the young man.

This young man is not only ignorant but also very greedy!

If those pieces of evidence have any use, it might be to blackmail him.

That’s why he thinks, Song Guanchao is very greedy.

Attempting to blackmail someone at his level.

His courage is extraordinary!

He didn’t ask what conditions Song Guanchao wanted, needing to teach the young man a lesson—that greed without power can backfire.

And create significant problems.

"Director Song, I can offer you a chance to change your mind."

"Hand over the items, and there will be no further interactions between us in the future. You can continue as Director of the office, and nobody will trouble you."

"Or, choose to refuse. The cost of refusal would be disciplinary action, and you’ll be transferred from the City Government."

Wei Shoucheng stated calmly, as though narrating an impending fact.

"Chairman Wei is threatening me?"

Wei Shoucheng said nothing, merely watching him quietly.

Song Guanchao chuckled, "Instead of threatening me, Chairman Wei should better manage his son. I’ve seen that evidence. If I pursue it, sending him inside for a few years wouldn’t be hard. Moreover, it involves several figures of unusual status. If released publicly, even Chairman Wei would be affected."

Wei Shoucheng’s smile grew wider, yet his eyes were cold as ice.

He said nothing more. Arguing further with someone as resolute as Song Guanchao was meaningless.

He took out his phone and, in front of Song Guanchao, dialed Tian Kai Ming’s number.

When the call connected, he looked into Song Guanchao’s eyes and said, "Secretary Tian, the business environment in Jiangzhou City is not very welcoming, hehe. I had a chat with Director Song; he doesn’t seem too keen on my entering the industrial park. Given that, I think I’ll find another place to invest."

With that, he hung up the phone.

He then dialed another number, "Liu, come in."

Secretary Liu opened the door and walked over to him.

Still looking at Song Guanchao, Wei Shoucheng said, "Liu, contact the city’s disciplinary committee to report Director Song for bribery. Tell them to search his home; they should be able to find evidence."

Secretary Liu glanced at Song Guanchao, and with an acknowledgment, left the room.

Slowly standing up, Wei Shoucheng took out the business card that had been previously handed to him and casually tossed it into the trash can, looking down at him with a faint smile, then turned and left.

Song Guanchao glanced at the trash can and said, "Chairman Wei should take the business card. Otherwise, when you want to contact me, you might not find my number."
