Tang Jiu, who always boasted that he was not afraid of anything, didn't dare to mention the fat ball to Park Soyeon. Instead, he went to see Yuan Xilong in the afternoon after having lunch with Pu Chulong.
There was no need to hide in the clubhouse when meeting Yuan Xilong. As everyone knew, he was one of them. Tang Jinyan directly received him in the president's office of his New Village Group.
People's standpoints were very subtle. Yuan Xilong and Tang Jinyan used to be on the same side, but now, as the mayor of Pusan, he had to consider different things.
From his point of view, he didn't want to see the bankruptcy of Han Jin Shipping, especially the series of events that would follow, which would put him, the mayor, on the hot stove.
Yuan Xilong was only an ally, not a subordinate. Tang Jinyan couldn't directly command him to do things. He could only persuade him.
It wasn't difficult to persuade him. After all, he had only been mayor for less than a month. If there were any problems, he could put the blame on his predecessor.
"Although we can ignore the responsibility, it will be troublesome to deal with the aftermath."
Yuan Xilong, who had been raised by Tang Jinyan's huge capital, didn't pretend to be a politician in front of Tang Jinyan. He said straightforwardly, "Pusan's economy is in turmoil, and the people's livelihood is declining. A large number of unemployed people can't find a place to settle down.
Although you will be able to sort it out quickly, it will take at least a week of transition. I'm afraid the City Hall won't be able to withstand the pressure this week. If Seven Stars fanned the flames and caused a riot or something … "
"It won't take a week."
Tang Jinyan said, "Our forces are unprecedentedly strong this time. We can solve the bankruptcy case quickly, reorganize the resources, and absorb the unemployed people in three days at most."
"Oh?" Yuan Xilong was surprised. "Is there such a strong force?
Can you tell us more? "
"Three Stars, Lotte, Hyundai, Han Jin, and New Village.
In addition to you, Kim Yikyung, Gavin Jaein, and the rest are officials.
I also have arrangements in the army. If there is any chaos, I can even ask the US Army stationed in Korea to intervene. "
Tang Jinyan said lightly, "With such a force, a coup is almost inevitable. Besides, the government won't stop it."
Yuan Xilong sucked in a cold breath.
It's almost a coup d 'état … Tang Jinyan's all-out attack has actually reached such a level!
Yuan Xilong, who thought that he had watched Tang Jinyan step by step since he was in Jeju Island, could not imagine how Tang Jinyan could link up with such a strong force.
After the establishment of Tang Dynasty, many media outlets jokingly called it the Tang Dynasty and the Tang Jinyan Emperor. It seemed that it was going to come true.
Tang Jinyan had indeed created a huge empire that was not inferior to a three-star empire …
As if they had read each other's minds, Tang Jinyan said casually, "If everything goes well, I'll integrate the New Village Group and Tang Dynasty, as well as the Pan-Western Faction … and the new shipping company to form a brand new group."
Yuan Xilong seemed to have sensed something and asked tentatively, "Call …"
"Tang Dynasty Group."
Yuan Xilong fell silent. The New Village Party with decades of history was finally going to change dynasties and become the Tang Empire, but he didn't feel that it was out of place.
He also knew that it was not difficult for Tang Jinyan to pass this proposal. After all, the New Village Party and the old New Village Party were two different things.
But he still sighed in his heart. After a long time, he said, "Arrange for me to meet Wen Zaiyin. There are some things that need his cooperation."
Tang Jinyan laughed. "Wen Zaiyin said the same thing."
Yuan Xilong shook his head and laughed. "Do you know how many years Wen Zaiyin and I have been arguing with each other?"
Tang Jinyan said casually, "You can continue arguing in the future."
"Tsk …" Of course, Yuan Xilong knew that it was more in Tang Jinyan's interest to continue arguing with Wen Zaiyin, but he didn't expect Tang Jinyan to say it so calmly.
Thinking about it, if Tang Jinyan said that he hoped that they would bury the hatchet in the future, that would be hypocritical.
In essence, Tang Jinyan was very different from hypocritical politicians. In fact, everyone who cooperated with Tang Jinyan felt very comfortable because they never worried that they would be cheated.
The two chatted casually for a while, and then Yuan Xilong suddenly remembered something. "Oh right.
Didn't we expose a bribery case in Pusan before?
The Pusan District Public Prosecutor's Office hasn't come to a conclusion yet, and I used it as a point of attack.
Now that I'm in Pusan, it's better to come to a conclusion. "
"Let's talk to Attorney General Li about this. He'll know what to do.
It's a good time to clean up the City Hall and replace some of your people. "
Yuan Xilong clapped his hands and smiled. "That's what I was thinking."
The truth of the so-called bribery case was never important.
It was just a weapon in the beginning, and it was still a weapon now.
Since Prosecutor General Lee was mentioned, Tang Jinyan felt that since he and Wen Zaiyin were on good terms, Yuan Xilong should be treated similarly.
So, he called Li Juli. "Are you free today?
How about having dinner with your father tonight? "
Li Juli said lazily. "I'm not free."
"Huh?"
"Someone is treating our whole team to dinner tonight."
"Who is it?"
"Xu Xian."
Tang Jinyan's eyes widened.
Xiao Xian, this girl, had originally been avoiding meeting Suyan. But once she had made up her mind, she immediately did it without hesitation.
She just called him in the morning to tell him that she was back in China, and she planned to hold a banquet tonight.
If that's the case … Tang Jinyan touched his chin and thought for a long time. Suddenly, he covered the phone and said to Yuan Xilong. "That, Mayor Yuan …"
"What's wrong?"
"Can you have dinner with Prosecutor General Lee?"
"…" Yuan Xilong did not know whether to laugh or cry. As an old friend, he knew very well that Tang Jinyan had a lot of romantic affairs. He also felt that Tang Jinyan did not treat him as an outsider. Instead, he smiled and said, "Go, go, I know you have a lot of wives."
Tang Jinyan beamed and said to the phone, "Juli, do me a favor …"
Li Juli became alert. "What favor?"
"You and Su Yuan can go to Xiao Xian's place together. Find an excuse and ask the four of them not to go tonight …"
Li Juli was puzzled. "Why?"
Tang Jinyan said humbly, "Don't ask so many questions, just help me."
Li Juli thought about it and came up with an excuse for Tang Jinyan out of kindness. He was probably worried that Xu Xian would be embarrassed to face so many people at once.
So, he could reduce the number of people and let them live together?
With that thought in mind, Li Juli readily agreed, "That's a good thing. You're quite considerate now. Alright, leave it to me."
Tang Jinyan's mouth was half open. How can you tell that I am a person?
After sending Yuan Xilong away, Tang Jinyan immediately drove straight to CUBE and pulled out Pu Chulong, who was paying attention to the production of Apink's album.
"What are you doing …"
"Let's go and have dinner. Xiao Xian will treat."
"Oh …" Pu Chulong did not think much. When she heard Xu Xian's phone call, she guessed that Tang Jinyan was going to find Xu Xian tonight, but she did not expect that he would bring her along.
It was not the first time that she and Xu Xian were together. They had been together as early as last year in Jeju Island. They usually lived together. It was not unexpected that Tang Jinyan would bring her along.
Pu Chulong was not shy. This kind of thing … There would be a lot of it in the future. She was even thinking about another person now …
When they arrived at Xu Xian's house, Tang Jinyan opened the door with the password.
Seeing the scene in the house, Pu Chulong, who originally felt very indifferent, suddenly bulged her eyes and almost wanted to run away.
Park Soyeon and Li Juli were sitting in the living room. They were talking and laughing with Xu Xian.
Damn it … Is this the rhythm of being caught by the wife when he came to eat outside?
I even barged in!
The three people in the house turned their heads and saw Tang Jinyan with Pu Chulong. They were also surprised.
It was not that they rejected Pu Chulong, but this scene was not right …
Tang Jinyan pulled Pu Chulong into the room. He nodded and bowed. "Greetings, ladies …"
Li Juli carefully probed, "Chulong, this is …"
Tang Jinyan dryly coughed twice, "I have a girl group idea that I have been thinking about for more than a year. I want to discuss it with you ladies."
Park Soyeon squinted at him, "You also have a girl group idea?"
"Of course."
Tang Jinyan puffed out his chest, "My Tang Dynasty believes that fat is beautiful. Once we create a fat ball group, it will definitely be popular all over the world."
Before he finished speaking, Pu Chulong's right foot stopped, and she threw him to the side on the carpet. Then, three apples on the coffee table were thrown at him at the same time. Tang Jinyan held his head and rolled on the ground. The scene was tragic.
Poor Pu Chulong had been learning aikido since childhood. She had never beaten anyone except for sparring. She had beaten Tang Jinyan twice.
The four girls looked at each other and did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Damn it, he had done so many things for this nameless thing. This was a mafia boss. Even primary school students were not so childish!
