Starting as a town mayor, he rose through the ranks.

Upon hearing Lou Zhengtian's words, Luo Zhiguo understood that he was concerned about his relationship with Qin Lu and wanted to ask for his opinion before conducting the investigation.

If he still had some connection with Qin Lu, then he would let Qin Lu off the hook.

If there's no connection, he'll handle it strictly by the book and won't show any leniency.

Thinking of this, he thanked Lou Zhengtian, after all, Lou had given him face, and he couldn't pretend he knew nothing.

Immediately afterward, his expression turned serious, and he said sternly, "Secretary Lou! Although Qin Lu and I dated before, we've broken up. Last time, when the Discipline Inspection Commission was investigating me, she even tortured me. Regarding this, if you need my cooperation, I'm ready to cooperate at any time..."

He had absolutely no feelings for Qin Lu. Of course, he didn't hate her either; he just didn't want to have any contact with her in this lifetime.

What he just said was simply the truth; he did not intentionally frame Qin Lu.

After hearing his words, Lou Zhengtian knew what to do. After thinking for a moment, he said in a deep voice, "Brother Luo! I will contact you if needed."

He paused, then asked, "By the way, Brother Luo! You're in the county town now, right?"

"Yes! I'm in the county town."

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiguo smiled slightly and responded.

"Alright! Since you're in town tonight, let's have dinner together. Old Qian was also in town earlier, we can have a few drinks together..."

Lou Zhengtian said with a smile.

Upon hearing that Qian Tao would also be there tonight, Luo Zhiguo understood what was going on, smiled slightly, and agreed to attend the banquet that evening.

After hanging up the phone, Luo Zhiguo stood up, stretched, and then prepared to take a shower.

"Ring ring ring..."

His phone rang again, and he, who was about to go to the bathroom, paused and turned back to his phone.

He frowned slightly upon seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, but he still answered the call.

"Hello! Who is this?"

He greeted him politely.

"Hello! Are you Mayor Luo?"

An unfamiliar voice came from the other end of the phone.

"That's right! I'm Luo Zhiguo, and who are you?"

Hearing the unfamiliar voice, Luo Zhiguo frowned, answered, and then asked a question.

"Hello Mayor Luo! I am Wu Chong, the head of the investment team sent by Han Feng."

Wu Chong smiled slightly and introduced himself.

Just now, after leaving the private room, he immediately called Han Feng and reported what had happened.

Han Feng was also very angry about this, but instead of making them withdraw immediately, he gave Luo Zhiguo's phone number to him.

Tell him to contact Luo Zhiguo and find out what's going on.

Upon hearing the other party's identity, Luo Zhiguo immediately greeted him with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Wu! Have you arrived in Bohou Town yet?"

"Mayor Luo! We've arrived in Bohou Town, but we're currently staying at the Jinyue Hotel. Some things happened earlier, and I'd like to meet with you so we can have a proper chat. Do you have the time…?"

"How about this, Mr. Wu? I'm at home, so there's no need for you to come over. It'll be more convenient for us to talk here."

Upon hearing Wu Chong mention that something had just happened, Luo Zhiguo immediately frowned, guessing that Zhang Qiang might have sent someone to contact Wu Chong.

But when discussing the investment, something must have gone wrong, so he thought about it and invited Wu Chong to his home to talk.

To avoid being discovered by Zhang Qiang's men outside and causing any accidents.

"Okay! Mayor Luo, please tell me the address, and I'll be there right away."

Wu Chong also wanted to find a quiet place to meet, and Luo Zhiguo's country would be perfect, so he agreed without hesitation.

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiguo gave him the address and then went downstairs to meet him after hanging up the phone.

About ten minutes later, a car drove into the residential area, and a man got out of the car.

"Are you General Manager Wu?"

Luo Zhiguo went over to greet him, smiling as he inquired.

"Hello Mayor Luo! I am Wu Chong."

In front of Mayor Luo, Wu Chong dared not be presumptuous. He immediately extended his hand to shake hands with him and said with a smile.

Luo Zhiguo extended his hand, exchanged a few polite words with him, and then led him upstairs into his home.

"Mr. Wu! I don't have any good tea to offer you, please forgive me."

After inviting Wu Chong to sit down on the sofa, Luo Zhiguo went to make tea.

After everything was settled, the two drank tea and talked.

Wu Chong said that he had just met with Mei Chengyuan, the director of the Investment Promotion Bureau, and what had happened.

Luo Zhiguo's face instantly turned extremely gloomy. He wondered if Zhang Qiang wanted to keep the investors in the county to build a factory, or if he wanted to drive them away.

It's utterly baffling that they would send just that one person to meet with the investors.

"Mayor Luo! What exactly happened? We've met people from your Bohou Town before, but when I asked you about them, they stopped talking. Then, this afternoon, they came with people from the Investment Promotion Bureau to talk to us, asking us to transfer our investment to the county seat..."

Looking at Luo Zhiguo, Wu Chong asked with a suspicious expression.

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiguo gave a wry smile, thought for a moment, and said, "President Wu! It's like this, I was temporarily suspended from my duties for some reason, which led to this unexpected incident. But don't worry, everything we agreed on before still stands, it just takes a little time..."

"Oh! I see."

Upon hearing this, Wu Chong nodded, thought for a moment, then looked at Luo Zhiguo and said, "Mayor Luo! How about this, you call General Manager Han and discuss with him how to handle this matter..."

"Okay! I'll call President Han right now."

Luo Zhiguo nodded, then took out his phone and dialed Han Feng's number: "Hello, senior!"

In front of Wu Chong, he did not shy away from his relationship with Han Feng.

"Hahaha! Wu Chong said he encountered some unexpected trouble in Shunping County. Zhiguo, what exactly happened?"

Han Feng did not question Luo Zhiguo about what had just happened with Wu Chong; instead, he asked him very politely.

Luo Zhiguo gave a wry smile and then explained why he had been suspended from his post.

"Damn! Your county magistrate is trying to steal your thunder..."

Upon hearing what he said, Han Feng immediately knew what was going on and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Luo Zhiguo shook his head with a wry smile and said, "A higher rank can crush you, senior brother!"

"Hahaha……"

Upon hearing this, Han Feng couldn't help but burst into laughter, then asked, "Zhiguo! What's your plan?"

"Senior brother! The investment will proceed as originally agreed, in Bohou Town. However, I need some time to sort out my own matters before I can discuss this with the investment team."

Luo Zhiguo didn't hide anything and simply explained his plan.
