Reborn as a Noble's Son

Chapter 1167 - 1167 1123 Ill-intentioned Visitor

?Chapter 1167: Chapter 1123: Ill-intentioned Visitor Chapter 1167: Chapter 1123: Ill-intentioned Visitor Nie Zhenbang’s words immediately caused many of Jinan City’s leaders’ faces to show signs of embarrassment. As the Secretary of the Municipal Committee, Ma Zhongxiong also knew that Secretary Nie’s words had a deeper meaning.

The so-called reliance on not just a single state-owned or private enterprise was clearly aimed at the Zhao Clan Group.

As the leading enterprise in Jinan City, generating nearly three billion yuan in profits and taxes annually, the Zhao Clan Group is a diversified conglomerate involved in real estate development, entertainment management, mineral resources, agriculture, and animal husbandry. Ma Zhongxiong was aware of the unfavorable rumors about the Zhao family in Jinan City.

At this moment, others might shrink back, but as the top leader of Jinan City, he had no room to retreat. Faced with the soft pressure of Nie Zhenbang’s veiled attacks, Ma Zhongxiong managed an awkward smile and had no choice but to stiffen his resolve and say, “Secretary Nie, as you see, it’s already noon. The city has prepared a simple meal, and we invite you to dine with us.”

Hearing this, Nie Zhenbang responded with a dismissive smile. Turning to look at Zhang Yongjun beside him, he said, “As the saying goes, ‘an emperor doesn’t shortchange his soldiers.’ Vice Governor Zhang, since Jinan City is prepared, let’s have lunch first. What do you think?”

Zhang Yongjun was taken aback, unsure of Nie Zhenbang’s intentions. It was unconventional to ask for his opinion instead of Liu Xiaomin’s at such a gathering. Was Nie Zhenbang using this opportunity to gauge his stance?

But seeing Nie Zhenbang’s calm demeanor, it didn’t seem like he had any hidden motives. Immediately after, Zhang Yongjun also replied with a smile, “Secretary Nie is right. People are iron, food is steel, and one cannot go without a meal. Since it’s already midday, let’s have lunch.”

At this moment, Ma Zhongxiong watched as Nie Zhenbang turned to head toward the neighboring Jin’an City Party Guesthouse and finally breathed a sigh of relief as he followed.
