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

"So it's Boss Lin. I've heard of you before. You're a very promising young talent."

"But you're from Liangshan County, right?"

What brings you to our Songming County?

The county party secretary politely poured tea for Lin Fan and Lin Shuying, then looked at him with a smile and asked.

So, although Songming County and Liangshan County are in different places, Lin's Clothing in Songming County has recently become very popular.

As the county party secretary, he was somewhat concerned about people's livelihood, which is why he had some impression of Lin Fan.

"Secretary, I've come here today to ask you for a favor."

Lin Fan looked at the county party secretary in front of him and spoke in a deep voice.

The other person calmly took a sip of tea and smiled, "Help?"

"I wonder if there's anything I can do to help you?"

“Secretary, as you know, my business is doing quite well, but once a business takes off, it’s inevitable that it will attract the attention of unscrupulous people.”

"Recently, I discovered that some people in your Songming County are selling counterfeit Lin's products, which has already had a serious impact on my investment plans in your Songming County."

"So I would like to ask the secretary to help me punish these people who sell counterfeit goods."

Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, the secretary was taken aback for a moment, and then his gaze deepened imperceptibly.

To be honest, if it were anything else, he would be happy to help Lin Fan.

After all, it is very worthwhile to befriend a promising young entrepreneur like Lin Fan.

Don't be fooled by his current success in just a few nearby counties. Shenlong can guarantee that he won't have a bigger stage in the future. If he becomes a well-known entrepreneur in the city or even the province, any cooperation with him, the county party secretary, could greatly boost his political achievements.

Of course, that's only part of the reason. What really made him value Lin Fan was Lin Fan's connections and background. He'd heard that this guy had some connections with a certain leader in the provincial capital; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to achieve so much at such a young age.

So if it's a normal request, I'll definitely help him if I can.

Judging from what Lin Fan just said, this matter is probably not easy to handle.

“Mr. Lin, you’re in business too. It’s not that I’m unwilling to help you, but you should know how troublesome it is to investigate these kinds of things.”

"If we want to stop these counterfeit goods from spreading, or even find evidence to punish them, the first thing we need to do is to collect evidence and obtain concrete evidence against them. This alone is very difficult."

"After all, in business, there isn't such a clear line between genuine and counterfeit goods. Proving that someone is counterfeiting requires a chain of evidence that can't be gathered by ordinary means. I really don't know how to help you."

The secretary was quite honest and directly told Lin Fan about his worries and helplessness.

Actually, it wasn't just this secretary who thought this way; Lin Shuying had the same idea before she came.

Counterfeit and substandard products are currently not effectively and clearly addressed by law, so they are generally ignored.

She had seen it all before. If one business was doing well, another would simply copy it, change the name, and still make money. And you couldn't do anything about it.

Moreover, this time it was in the neighboring territory, Songming County. Lin Fan shouldn't have any connections here. She really couldn't understand why Lin Fan was so confident that the county party secretary would help him.

"I understand your difficulties, but don't worry, since I've come to ask for your help, I certainly won't put you in a difficult position."

“I can handle many things myself. For example, regarding the evidence you just mentioned, I can find a way to collect it myself. All I need is your support, Secretary. After I have collected all these things, you can send people from the Industry and Commerce Bureau and the Police Bureau to arrest all those counterfeiters.”

"Apart from that, you don't need to do anything else."

Lin Fan spoke in a deep voice, stating his conditions.

Unsurprisingly, although the secretary was all smiles and seemed very kind, he was not so easy to talk to.

He shook his head with a worried look and said, "Boss Lin, this is not so easy. As the county party secretary of Songming County, my words and actions are subject to supervision, and I cannot act arbitrarily."

“If we don’t handle the counterfeit goods issue properly, it will cause a huge backlash from other local businessmen in Songming County. I still need to prioritize maintaining stability.”

"I don't know just how serious this matter is. Does Mr. Lin really have to handle it this way?"

Hearing the secretary's subconscious attempt to smooth things over, Lin Fan knew he had to take a stand, otherwise the secretary would definitely ignore him.

He would certainly be willing to help with ordinary troubles, but he wouldn't want to get involved in something too troublesome.

Thinking of this, Lin Fan looked at the secretary and said, "Actually, the reason I came to ask you for help is because, as you know, at the trade fair held in the provincial capital before, our Lin family was successfully selected as one of the enterprises supported by the Liangshan County government."

"Now the higher authorities have started going through various procedures, and one important indicator is that before officially issuing these quotas, they will investigate the situation of our companies, resolve some troubles for us in advance, and verify the specific information of our companies."

"For example, I have a factory, a shop and other businesses in Liangshan County, but I don't have any businesses in Songming County. Yet, the name of our Lin's Clothing appears here."

“I was afraid that if the supervisory team found out about these things, they would question me. So, on the one hand, I was considering my business, and on the other hand, I was supporting the leadership’s decision and cooperating with the government’s actions by presenting my detailed situation to the government.”

Upon hearing this, the secretary was immediately stunned.

He hadn't considered that.

As the Party Secretary of Songming County, he knew that Lin Fan was telling the truth.

The review process for government-supported enterprises is very strict. Even after meeting the requirements, they still need to go through various review procedures, government registration, and so on.

Therefore, in the end, if it is to be established and implemented, it cannot withstand investigation from all sides.

This is because there is a lot of room for manipulation in such national preferential policies. If we want to ensure that the government's preferential policies are not taken by corrupt officials and that they are implemented effectively, then we must conduct strict reviews.

So what Lin Fan said, seemingly an excuse to get his help, was actually a real, readily available reason that he couldn't avoid.
