Chapter 2163 1 Must you do it to the extreme?

"Mr. Deng, let's come up with this compromise. I will personally go to your project to inspect it in a few days. After I see it with my own eyes, if there are indeed no major problems, I will sign immediately and the finance department can allocate funds immediately."

"As for this suitcase and the two girls outside, I just think of it as a joke that Mr. Deng was playing on me." Qin Feng leaned back in his chair and looked at Deng Xiaogang with a smile.

Deng Xiaogang's face turned ugly, and there was a murderous look in his eyes. He didn't expect that he had begged Qin Feng so humbly, but Qin Feng finally had this attitude. Deng Xiaogang had taken on projects in various places in Jiangnan Province over the years. When had he ever begged someone so humbly?

"Mayor Qin not only doesn't give me, Deng Xiaogang, any face, but also wants to cut off my source of income? I, Deng Xiaogang, have always treated Mayor Qin with courtesy. It seems that I have never offended Mayor Qin?" Deng Xiaogang said coldly.

"I have made my words very clear just now. From my position, I have already given Mr. Deng the greatest face by doing this. Even if I were standing in front of Vice Governor Deng today, I would still say this because this is the biggest compromise I can make."

"Mr. Deng, let me say the same thing again. I will personally visit your project in a few days. If there is no problem, I guarantee that every penny of the project payment will be deposited into your company's account." Qin Feng said again.

"What if there is a problem?" Deng Xiaogang asked coldly.

"If there is a problem... then everything will be handled impartially. I cannot completely ignore the lives of the people. Moreover, this is a provincial key poverty alleviation project. If something really goes wrong, I will not be able to explain to the municipal party committee or the province. I hope Mr. Deng can understand." Qin Feng explained again.

"Mayor Qin, is there no room for negotiation on this matter? Do you have to do it so decisively?" Deng Xiaogang leaned back in his chair.

"I don't think I've done anything too extreme. In my opinion, I should say this to you, Master Deng. When doing business, it's all about making money through harmony and win-win situations. Take the project that Master Deng is doing for example. The best way is that Master Deng makes money, the people benefit, and I, Qin Feng, have a way out."

"But now Young Master Deng intends to make all the money by himself, leaving no way for the common people to survive, and no way for me to retreat. Who do you think is so cruel?"

"So I would like to advise Mr. Deng that money is something that you can never make enough of. Make less money so that the common people can have a way to survive and I can have a way out."

Qin Feng stood up after he finished speaking and said to Master Deng again, "Master Deng, you have the final say on when you will go to inspect. When you have completed the rectification here and when you have Tai'an County report to the municipal government, I will go to inspect you again. Master Deng, this is the greatest honor I can give to you and Vice Governor Deng."

"Qin Feng, you are the first cadre I have seen in all these years who is so ignorant of current affairs. I just don't understand how a person like you could become the deputy mayor." Deng Xiaogang also stood up and pointed at Qin Feng and cursed.

"Mr. Deng, please don't worry about how I became the deputy mayor. You should go back and make arrangements for the rectification as soon as possible. The sooner the rectification is completed, the sooner I can sign. It will be good for both you and me to finish the matter early." Qin Feng said and walked out.

Qin Feng knew a long time ago that there were problems with the project that Deng Xiaogang was working on, but Qin Feng did not take the initiative to investigate the problems of the project. He is not a fool and would not go out of his way to offend a powerful deputy governor.

However, Qin Feng would never tolerate the money squeezed out from the treasury for poverty alleviation being pocketed by some people, especially since this project concerns the lives of the villagers in the entire village. This is his bottom line.

Qin Feng didn't want to offend Vice Governor Deng, nor did he want to do anything to let down the people, so the measure he took before was to delay the matter as long as possible.

But Qin Feng also knew that this matter could not be delayed indefinitely and would need to be resolved sooner or later, so Qin Feng had already thought about how to confront Deng Xiaogang and find a solution.

He gave Deng Xiaogang time to go back and make rectifications. After the rectifications were completed, Qin Feng would go to inspect in person. As long as Deng Xiaogang did an acceptable job and there were no major issues of principle, Qin Feng would not care about some minor problems. As long as the relocated people could live a stable life here, Qin Feng would sign and allocate all the money to Deng Xiaogang without any deduction.

This was the biggest concession Qin Feng could think of and make. In order not to offend Vice Governor Deng, Qin Feng racked his brains.

Of course, as for Deng Xiaogang's desire to add another 15 million, Qin Feng would never agree to it.

Deng Xiaogang was very dissatisfied with Qin Feng's attitude and didn't even send Qin Feng out, but Qin Feng didn't care.

Although Qin Feng still had some consideration for Vice Governor Deng, from the very beginning, Qin Feng did not take this Master Deng seriously. He was just a playboy. With Qin Feng's personality, if he was really pushed to the limit, he would not even take Vice Governor Deng seriously. This was not the first time he had done such a thing.

Qin Feng returned to Dongyang from Zhongjiang, and the next day Liu Xiaoping called Qin Feng to his office.

As a member of the Municipal Party Committee, deputy secretary of the Municipal Government Party Committee, and the second-in-command of the Municipal Government, Liu Xiaoping has many opportunities to contact Qin Feng, and many things need to be discussed with Qin Feng. This is no longer a matter of whether Liu Xiaoping is willing or not, but he must seek Qin Feng's opinion. If Liu Xiaoping still treats Qin Feng, the executive vice mayor, as he did before, many of Liu Xiaoping's work will simply not be able to proceed.

Of course, Liu Xiaoping also wanted to win over Qin Feng. If he couldn't win over Qin Feng, let alone the fight against Xie Zhiguo, his own position in the municipal government would be at risk.

Qin Feng pushed open the door of Liu Xiaoping's office and walked in.

"Mayor, is there something wrong?" Qin Feng asked as he walked in.

"Qin Feng is here, please sit down." When Liu Xiaoping saw Qin Feng coming in, he quickly stood up and smiled, preparing to invite Qin Feng to sit on the sofa.

"Mayor, don't be polite. I know you have a meeting later, so let's make it short." Qin Feng sat down on the chair in front of Liu Xiaoping's desk, crossed his legs, and handed Liu Xiaoping a cigarette.

As a member of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee, Qin Feng now naturally has the confidence to be on equal footing with Liu Xiaoping.

"Okay, then I'll be frank. Vice Governor Deng just called me and asked about Tai'an County's poverty alleviation relocation project. He asked us to complete the project on time and with quality. This project is a provincial key poverty alleviation project and the province attaches great importance to it." Liu Xiaoping said to Qin Feng with a smile.

Qin Feng smiled when he heard this. Big leaders all speak in an artistic way. It was obvious that Vice Governor Deng made this call to force Liu Xiaoping to give the green light to his son's project as soon as possible. However, what he said was very high-sounding, and you couldn't find any flaws. At the same time, he also expressed his meaning clearly.
