In the county town, Suyun Restaurant might not be considered the best place, but in Big River Town, it was the top restaurant, so many wealthy people were willing to come here!
The owner of the restaurant was very savvy, so he had intentionally set up numerous private rooms on the second floor, each with a charming name!
At this time, Zhao Long and Wang Dagui had arrived outside the "Step by Step Ascending Hall"!
Governments officials always hoped they could rise higher in rank, and Director Zhou was no exception, so every time he came here, he would choose this private room, naturally hoping that it would symbolize his ascension to higher positions!
"Director Zhou, someone's taken a fancy to a handbag!"
Just about to push the door open, Zhao Long and Wang Dagui heard a coquettish voice coming from inside!
"No problem, no problem, it's just a handbag after all! I'll buy it for you tomorrow!"
"You're the best, Director Zhou!"
"Of course, you just make sure you have a good time today with me!"
"Sure thing! I went out of my way to buy a set of black underwear before, and tonight I can wear it for you to see, I think you're definitely going to like it!"
Hearing that the inside conversation seemed about finished, Zhao Long and Wang Dagui exchanged glances, and Zhao Long gently knocked on the door!
Hearing the slightly impatient reply, Zhao Long, with due respect, spoke through the door, "Director Zhou, it's me! Zhao Long from Zhaojialou, I've called you before!"
After saying this, Zhao Long waited quietly and soon heard a lukewarm response, "Oh, it's Zhao Long, come in!"
Agreeing, Zhao Long and Wang Dagui quickly walked in!
After entering, they saw Director Zhou and a woman in a tight sheath dress sitting there!
The woman was blushing and adjusting her clothes, obviously, just moments ago, the two hadn't been engaging in innocent dining!
"You go wait for me in the car first!"
Knowing they were here for important matters, Director Zhou glanced at the woman beside him and spoke indifferently!
The slim beauty lazily nodded her head and then got up quickly, obediently leaving!
Watching her deliberately twist her butt, Director Zhou felt a bit restless; afterwards, he took a deep breath and hoarsely said, "Alright, out with it! What do you need?"
Hearing his impatient inquiry, Zhao Long knew this wasn't the best timing!
But of course, retreating now was pointless!
With that thought, Zhao Long hurriedly said, "Director Zhou, Village Chief Wang and I want to ask for your help against someone."
Upon hearing Zhao Long's words, Director Zhou turned his head to glance at Wang Dagui, initially thinking that Wang Dagui was Zhao Long's follower, only now understanding that this wasn't the case!
"Village Chief Wang?"
Hearing this question, Zhao Long quickly responded, "Yes, he's Wang Dagui, the village chief of Xiaohe Village!"
Hearing his name mentioned by Zhao Long, Director Zhou suddenly said, "Oh! You're Wang Dagui then!"
"You've heard of me?"
As he asked back, Wang Dagui felt a surge of excitement...
Seeing Wang Dagui's excitement, Director Zhou said indifferently, "Yes, it's not just me, everyone in our town has heard of you! You're quite a celebrity here! Your previous actions have all been exposed on the forums, so other than those who don't go online, everyone knows your name!"
Hearing this, Wang Dagui's mouth twitched, overwhelmed with embarrassment to the point of figurative blood-vomiting!
After a while, Wang Dagui quickly said, "Director Zhou, those are all misunderstandings, setups! I... I am incorruptible!"
Hearing Wang Dagui's pitiable explanation, Director Zhou waved his hand dismissively, "Enough, I'm not from the disciplinary department, I have no interest in your matters, just get to the point and tell me what you're here for!"
Having said this, Director Zhou looked straight at Zhao Long!
He didn't know Wang Dagui at all, thus he really had no interest in learning about Wang Dagui's troubles because they truly had nothing to do with him!
Seeing Director Zhou looking at him again, Zhao Long said bitterly, "Director Zhou, there's this guy, Hu Xiaobei, in Xiaohe Village who is up to no good, everyone wants to get rid of him. We need your help to bring justice!"
"Hu Xiaobei? Who is he?"
At Director Zhou's question, Zhao Long quickly explained, "He's just a farmer! But he's so bold that he's angered the whole village! Countless villagers want him gone, but because he's so powerful, everyone is too scared to speak up!"
Hearing Zhao Long, Wang Dagui hastily chimed in, "Yeah, that's right! Everyone in Xiaohe Village hates him!"
Now knowing that the Hu Xiaobei they referred to was just a farmer, Director Zhou replied nonchalantly, "You could just report it to the authorities! Go to the police station, wouldn't that work?"
"Director Zhou, we're worried the police station won't take it seriously!"
At this point, Zhao Long paused briefly, then earnestly continued, "Director Zhou, you and I have known each other for a long time, I know you have divine skills, so we want your help. We all know that if you're willing, Hu Xiaobei is definitely done for!"
"That's true, I could certainly settle it easily!"
Basked in their flattery, Director Zhou smiled!
Afterwards, Director Zhou sighed and said, "Zhao Long, we really have known each other for a long time, we're friends, so it's only right for me to help you. But I have a tricky issue to handle right now, so let's talk about it some other time, alright?"
Director Zhou didn't refuse outright, hinting at Zhao Long that there was a chance, so Zhao Long promptly asked, "Director Zhou, this tricky issue you mentioned? I wonder what it might be!"
Hearing Zhao Long's question, Director Zhou murmured, "I shouldn't be embarrassed to tell you guys, but our county has just developed a new building complex and I've taken a liking to it. I plan to buy a unit there, but I'm short on money. I've been trying to round up the funds, and once I have enough to secure the house, I'll help you take care of your problem, okay?"
Upon hearing Director Zhou mentioning his need for money, their faces slightly shifted!
Soon after, Zhao Long looked at Wang Dagui and said, "Village Chief Wang, didn't you say you wanted to go to the restroom? I need to go now too, shall we go together?" The most update n0vels are published on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝙣𝙚𝙩
After saying this, the two of them stood up...
"Director Zhou, we'll just go to the washroom quickly, and we'll talk more later!"
As the two of them left, Director Zhou hummed a tune contently, convinced that the house was as good as his!
With that thought, Director Zhou reconsidered their request for him to deal with Hu Xiaobei!
He wasn't really bothered by it, convinced that with just his presence, that no-good Hu Xiaobei would surely be shaking in his boots...
