After all, the most important thing in doing business is profit and the ultimate goal. As long as the ultimate goal can be achieved, the process is not that important.

Not long after, his subordinates came to report again, this time having found out the specifics of what had happened in the industrial park.

"President Liu, it seems that Lin Fan has not reached a cooperation agreement with Secretary Luo, but the two have already agreed that they will officially sign the contract tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, a smile inexplicably appeared on Liu Qi's face.

It's like a merciless wildcat toying with a mouse in its hand.

"Very good, go and say hello over there now."

"Tell them that under no circumstances should Lin Fan be allowed to rent the factory."

For him, this matter was very simple.

Don't underestimate him just because he's a businessman; his influence is on a completely different level from other businessmen of the same caliber.

He must have received some help to get to where he is today, but he has always been low-key and mysterious, so no one knows his true situation.

It's just the Party Secretary of a small industrial park; it's hard to resist some of his methods. So he believed that Secretary Luo would obediently do as he was told.

"Okay, Mr. Liu, I'll be right there!"

However, no sooner had his subordinate stepped out of the office than Liu Qi suddenly called him back.

"and many more!"

"Mr. Liu, is there anything else you need?"

Liu Qi rubbed his palms together and suddenly said, "Forget it, I'll handle this myself. Go to the industrial park and invite Secretary Luo over. Tell him I want to invite him to dinner!"

"Ok!"

……

Silent all night.

The next morning, Lin Fan greeted the new day with full energy.

He first went to the bank, took out the rent he owed, and then went directly to the industrial park.

Today is the day the two officially sign the contract. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, he will soon truly own his own business in Nancheng, which is undoubtedly a huge step forward.

It was also a milestone event in his new life.

Therefore, Lin Fan was very much looking forward to today's operation.

Upon arriving at the industrial park, Lin Fan successfully met with Secretary Luo.

As soon as they met, Secretary Luo warmly greeted Lin Fan.

"Oh, Brother Lin, you've arrived!"

"Come on, come on, sit down!"

Secretary Luo's attitude was also very good before, but it was definitely not this enthusiastic.

So Lin Fan's expression suddenly became somewhat strange.

He coughed at Secretary Luo, then smiled and said, "Secretary Luo, there's no need to be so polite."

"Of course, of course, Brother Lin, what would you like to drink?"

"Secretary Luo, there's really no need to go to that trouble. Let's talk about the contract instead."

Looking at Secretary Luo's enthusiastic face, Lin Fan felt no relief whatsoever. Instead, his brows furrowed tightly, and he had a strange sense of foreboding.

There's a saying that goes something like this: "When things are out of the ordinary, something fishy is sure to happen." Secretary Luo's current behavior is so strange that it probably isn't anything good.

"Haha, Brother Lin, don't worry, the contract is easy to discuss."

Seeing that Lin Fan's face had become somewhat wary, Secretary Luo stopped causing trouble.

He sat down opposite Lin Fan and started talking to him about serious business.

Lin Fan took out a large shoulder bag from behind him, then took out the rent payment and placed it on the table. It was a total of 20,000 yuan, not a penny less.

According to the previous agreement between the two, they would receive a 1,000-square-meter factory, which would be rented for one year.

To be honest, if it were before, Secretary Luo would definitely have been very happy and satisfied to receive this money so easily.

However, things have gone a little wrong right now, and Lin Fan's straightforwardness has left him somewhat at a loss for words.

Secretary Luo did not take the money, but instead gently pushed it toward Lin Fan.

Seeing this, Lin Fan felt an even stronger sense of foreboding, but he said nothing and simply looked at Secretary Luo quietly.

Secretary Luo coughed and looked at Lin Fan, saying, "Brother Lin, before officially renting the factory to you, I have a few things to discuss with you and ask for your opinion."

"Of course, this should be a good thing for you, so I can give it serious consideration. If you agree, it will be of great benefit to our cooperation."

Lin Fan raised an eyebrow, still looking calmly at Secretary Luo, and said, "Secretary Luo, please just say what it is!"

"That's right, I've heard about your reputation before."

"Our industrial park is very optimistic about your future, so we plan to make an investment here!"

"I don't know if you have the ability to set up this factory right now. If you are short of money, this is indeed a great thing for you. How much funding do you need? The higher-ups mean that they can allocate 300,000 yuan to you in one go this time."

"Of course, this 300,000 will be invested as shares. We won't take more than 51%, and the remaining 49% will still be in your hands. What do you think?"

Upon hearing these abrupt words, Lin Fan's heart skipped a beat.

To be honest, the temptation of 300,000 was extremely strong for Lin Fan, especially at this crucial moment.

It's no exaggeration to say that if Lin Fan had those 300,000, he would be confident that he could create a stir in the entire southern city within six months that rivals that of Liangshan County.

If it were an ordinary person, upon hearing about such a windfall, they would probably be blinded by greed at this point.

That's a whopping 300,000 yuan, and it's government investment. Who could resist such a temptation? If you accept this investment, you can get financial support on the one hand, and on the other hand, you can build a good relationship with the government. It seems like killing two birds with one stone.

However, Lin Fan had lived two lives, and while this trick might fool others, it couldn't fool himself.

Seeing that Secretary Luo didn't immediately ask any questions, he changed the subject and said, "Secretary Luo, let's talk about the investment later. I want to ask why the higher-ups gave me so much money to invest?"

"Perhaps my business does look promising, but I don't believe that just because it looks promising, the higher-ups would allocate a huge sum of 300,000 yuan!"

It's important to understand that even in the future, it will be extremely difficult for a small or medium-sized enterprise to obtain a loan of 300,000 yuan from a bank, requiring various forms of collateral.

In those days, 300,000 was an astronomical sum. It was hard for Lin Fan not to have doubts when the government suddenly threw so much money at him.
