The Beauties Help Me Become the No.1 Official

Chapter 31: Chapter 31 The Ties of Interests, The Way of Networking

"The situation is just as it is..."

Lin Fan, holding the phone, relayed exactly what had happened at hto Chen Jiayi, considering she was the

former Mayor’s Wife and had surely seen more situations like this than he had, so before he took any action, he

hoped to receive guidance from this wise and capable woman.

"Sometimes, | really admire your luck," Jiayi said, "although my next words might seem a bit irreverent, | have to

say, this incident with your uncle is definitely an excellent opportunity. After all, interaction is the most important

thing in relationships. In this regard, poor people and rich people have completely different understandings. Poor

people think they shouldn't bother others, so their relationships are indifferent, and they rarely get help when

problems arise. But rich people believe the relationship grows from interaction over small matters, and that lays

the groundwork for future cooperation."

At that moment, Chen Jiayi beclike a compass for navigating official circles, gradually correcting Lin Fan's

behavior. It had to be said, being able to reach the level of Mayor's Wife, her experience and way of thinking

were the most crucial aspects.

"So, you think I should go to the meeting tonight?"

Lin Fan, phone in hand, was pondering Zhao Changchun’s invitation, which was his biggest problem at the

moment. It wasn’t right to go or not to go.

"Of course you should go, but remember one thing: if he’s succeeded in getting government projects, he’s

definitely not an ordinary businessman. So, at dinner, he'll probably try to give you money, but you absolutely

cannot take it. After all, one who accepts favor owes allegiances, and what he can offer now isn’t of great value.

Once you accept it, you would be losing out on future potential exchanges of benefits."

Chen Jiayi paused before continuing, "While you can’t take money, you should find ssmall favors for him to

sort out. That way, you're implying an increase in interaction but also raising your own standards. You need to

judge this carefully, but be cautious. Moreover, to climb higher not only requires connections, but also money, so

never be petty. There's money you need to spend, and Ill transfer two hundred thousand to you to use for now.

If it’s not enough, letknow. Remember, a man’s view of money is very important, so never be stingy."

"| think | understand."

After a brief further conversation, Lin Fan hung up the phone, a thought popping into his head. He immediately

dialed Chang Wanyun’s number, and after a moment, she answered.

"Is it convenient to talk?"

"Yes, it's convenient. | just washed Dazhu and made food for the kid... but it’s not dark yet, and it may not be too

convenient forto cover," Wanyun said with sconcern as she looked at the sky. It was still afternoon

and if she were to go out now, she would surely meet the villagers seeking relief from the heat, which might not

be a good thing.

"It’s not about that, you used to be a captain at a hotel in town, right?"

Lin Fan wasn’t in such a rush; he had cup with an idea.

"Yes... but | only worked for two months before Dazhu was injured, and | had to resign. What's the matter?"

"lI want to arrange a job for you. There's a Tianhou Hotel that just opened in town, and | know the owner. | can

get you a position as a manager. Can you leave your family matters behind?"

Since Chen Jiayi suggested fostering interactions and Chang Wanyun needed a job, this would serve both

purposes well.

"I can leave family matters behind, after all, the child needs to attend school, and Dazhu can take care of

himself. But I've only been a captain for a few days, dealing with small matters. | don’t think | can be a

manager," Wanyun said, somewhat apprehensive but in real need of a job to support her family. However, the

position of manager seemed too high for her.

"I say it's fine, go change your clothes, and I'll take you to the town tonight to meet with the boss. Just listen to

my arrangements then."

Lin Fan found this to be a favorable opportunity; he could help himself while also providing Chang Wanyun with a

skill to earn a living, which also seemed fair considering how hard she worked the previous night. And he had a

personal motive; after all, if he managed to successfully get a temporary position in Lotus Town, it would be nice

to have scompany during the long nights.

"Okay, I'll get ready and then we can go."

Chang Wanyun hung up the phone and, after a simple preparation, followed Lin Fan in a car heading straight for

the County Hospital.

By the tLin Fan arrived at the hospital, his father’s leg had already been reattached, set in plaster, and he

had been given a single room. Even the caretaker’s bed for his mother was specially added. Moreover, Xue

Changchun had booked a rehab kitchen to deliver meals to them on a regular schedule.

"Lin Fan, this Boss Xue says he's very close to you, like brothers. When did you meet such a person?"

His mother held Lin Fan's hand and recounted everything Xue Changchun had done.

"We met by chance. Now that everything is arranged, just focus on recovering and don’t worry about anything

else."

Of course, Lin Fan wouldn't explain to his parents that this was a Trojan Horse. After sitting with them for a while,

he left the hospital, drove Chang Wanyun to the biggest shopping mall in the county. Since he was going to work

in the town, he naturally wanted to buy her snice clothes.

"This is too expensive, right?"

Wearing brand-nclothes for the first time, Chang Wanyun looked at the price tag with sconcern. A

single skirt could cost thousands, which for her, who had lived in the countryside all year round, was

astronomically expensive.

"It’s not expensive. Clothes make the man, just as gold makes the Buddha. Your beauty is worth more than any

garment."

Lin Fan looked with interest at Chang Wanyun in front of him, dressed in a white dress. As a beauty renowned for

miles around and despite being past her prime, she still had the charm of a mature woman. Her figure,

accentuated by the dress, was endlessly enchanting. Standing in high heels, she even had the allure of a city

belle.

"I never realized you were so sweet-talked before."

Chang Wanyun, never pampered like this before, blushed and clung to Lin Fan's arm. After a casual spin around,

he bought her a set of makeup and had her hair done. At this moment, Chang Wanyun seemed like a completely

different person, standing there with her own style, making Lin Fan want to pull her into a fitting room for a

passionate encounter. However, as the tfor their appointment was drawing near, the two drove back to Lotus

Town.

As the sun was setting, when the car stopped outside Tianhou Hotel, Xue Changchun was already waiting there.

Upon seeing Lin Fan arriving with Chang Wanyun, he smiled knowingly in welcome.

"Mr. Xue, this is my cousin | mentioned on the phone."

Lin Fan shook hands with Xue Changchun, smiling, having mentioned Chang Wanyun’s job situation when he

thanked him on the phone.

"Lin, you've donea great favor. My hotel just opened, and we're short-staffed everywhere, especially for the

position of Housekeeping Manager where we’ve been lacking a suitable candidate. | didn’t expect my wish to be

fulfilled so soon. Such talent really solves a big problem for me. If it’s convenient, I'll have someone take her to

get accustomed to the position. She can start working tomorrow."

While Lin Fan was the one asking for a favor, in Xue Changchun’s words, it had turned into him solving a

problem. It goes without saying that a big boss with aworth in the billions truly is extraordinary.
