After being reborn, the young master returned to his village and led his wife and daughters to prosp

Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, Section Chief Xu's brows furrowed subconsciously.

However, he immediately sneered and said, "Kid, you're trying to scare me?"

"Even if you really know Deputy Director Zhou, so what?"

"I can't afford to offend him, but I'm just following the rules and regulations. Is the price I asked for for this batch of equipment really that high? I'm not asking you for 100,000 or 200,000. Nobody can find fault with me!"

What Section Chief Xu said was true; this is what it means to make things difficult for others to the greatest extent possible within the scope of one's power.

Privileges are something that can fluctuate, and it is precisely because they can fluctuate that they give others an opportunity to take advantage of them.

I can sell it to you for 50,000, or I can sell it to you for 30,000. As for whether it is the highest or lowest price, that depends on your sincerity!

Of course, Section Chief Xu's statement was not because he was not afraid of Deputy Director Zhou, but because Lin Fan was just talking nonsense. He said he had a relationship with Deputy Director Zhou, so he had a relationship with Deputy Director Zhou.

If I said I was an old friend of the governor, would you kneel down and kowtow to me on the spot?

Lin Fan naturally understood this simple principle, so he crossed his legs and leaned back in his chair, saying, "Since Section Chief Xu doesn't believe me, then just wait and see. I'm not only familiar with Deputy Director Zhou, but I'm also familiar with Miss Zhu."

"It's just a small matter, and I didn't want to use their connections. But since Section Chief Xu is unwilling to do me a favor, I have no choice but to grit my teeth and do it."

"Of course, I won't let anyone who makes me unhappy make me unhappy either. Section Chief Xu is so capable, I'm sure my methods won't affect you!"

Lin Fan's words were a mixture of truth and lies.

He's right, he really doesn't want to bother these people with everything.

It's true that human relationships are something that diminish with use and become increasingly distant over time.

The most important thing is that the key to interpersonal relationships lies in these interactions.

Lin Fan could only take from them without offering any real help or benefits. Over time, as the amount of help increased, the relationship gradually weakened.

The reason Lin Fan could keep bothering Huba and the others was because Huba and the others were good at repaying favors. They would give them a little money and treat them to meals, and the friendship would grow back over time.

However, Lin Fan couldn't repay the favors he owed to people like Deputy Director Zhou, Miss Zhu, or the boss, so he remained in a passive position.

Lin Fan has not yet been able to offer them any help, and he really doesn't want to trouble them.

"Miss Zhu..."

Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, Section Chief Xu frowned slightly.

He might not have known the name Miss Zhu before, but not long ago, Miss Zhu was a celebrity in their Liangshan County. Everyone wanted to get on good terms with her so they could connect with the provincial leaders in the future.

This guy actually claims to know Deputy Director Zhou and Miss Zhou. Does he really have that much influence?

"Wait, say it again, what's your name?"

Section Chief Xu looked at Lin Fan, his expression changed, and he suddenly remembered a rumor he had heard before.

They say that in Liangshan County, there's a young man who sells fur coats and has a very good relationship with the ladies in the county. Even his wife has bought two fur coats from his shop, which are incredibly expensive.

And somehow, this young man also had a good relationship with Miss Zhu.

At the banquet, Miss Zhu was indifferent to everyone else, but she chatted happily with this young man.

Most of the time, they treat this kind of news as entertainment. After all, they might not even meet the people in the news, so what's the point of knowing them in detail?

What Section Chief Xu didn't expect was that he might actually run into the person in question today?

"My name is Lin Fan. I can't do any big business; I just sell some furs at the Red Leaf Tailor Shop!"

Section Chief Xu swallowed hard and said, "You, you're Lin Fan?"

Lin Fan chuckled and nodded: "It's me. What, Section Chief Xu, have you heard of this nobody?"

Section Chief Xu was immediately filled with remorse and wished he could slap himself twice.

Oh, how did my foul mouth manage to offend such a person!

As the saying goes, "It's easier to see the King of Hell than to deal with his underlings." Although Lin Fan wasn't an official, he knew many important figures.

If they're really determined to get rid of him, what does a mere section chief matter?

"So you're Lin Fan! Oh dear, this is such a misunderstanding, we've completely mistaken you for someone else!"

Section Chief Xu's expression changed, then he put on a fawning smile, immediately stood up, walked up to Lin Fan, and said with a smile.

Lin Fan understood that Section Chief Xu knew about him. If he had known this beforehand, he could have just given his name when he came in, instead of going through all this trouble!

Thinking of this, Lin Fan looked at Section Chief Xu and sneered, "Section Chief Xu, what do you mean by this? Didn't you just say that there was nothing to talk about with me and that you wanted me to leave?"

"Fine, since Section Chief Xu doesn't want to talk about it, I'll say it again: although I'm not a big shot, I do have some connections in Liangshan County. I'll find a way to directly inform the leaders of the Finance Bureau about this matter and see how much this batch of goods is actually worth."

"I can easily repay these favors, but as I said before, if anyone makes things difficult for me, I will definitely make things difficult for them too. If they force me to repay these favors, then let everyone suffer together!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Fan slammed his hand on the table and stood up, his displeasure evident on his face.

Upon seeing this, Section Chief Xu couldn't help but excitedly grasp Lin Fan's hand, saying with a forced smile, "Oh dear, Lin Fan, it's all a misunderstanding!"

"Look, my wife has bought clothes from you quite a few times. If I had known you were going to use this equipment, why would I have kept the price so tight!"

“Deputy Director Zhou and Miss Zhu are both very busy, so don’t make things difficult for them with such a small matter. You’re right, how can you use their personal connections for such a trivial matter!”

Section Chief Xu patted his chest and said, "Leave this small matter to me. I can make the decision. The minimum price given for this batch of equipment is 20,000."

"Since it's Lin Fan, you can take it for 20,000 yuan. Not only that, I also happen to have a batch of other small parts and equipment that are going to be scrapped. If you need them, you can take them with you. You don't have to pay a penny. Consider it a charitable donation!"

"How about this? This is the lowest price I can offer you. Just pretend I was being rude earlier, and I'll treat you to dinner later!"

"Once we understand each other, these misunderstandings won't happen again, don't you think?"
