Chapter 473: Chapter 473

Governor Liang Shouyu?!

The people present were all stunned upon hearing Ye Ningqing's words.

Although the individuals in the room were influential figures locally, they did not have access to the level of Elder Mu. However, they all knew Governor Liang Shouyu, whom Ye Ningqing mentioned.

Governor Liang was the top official of the twelve cities in the northern province, a true high-ranking governor. These people rarely even saw the governor, and now it was even more unlikely, as Ye Ningqing suggested, for Governor Liang to cooperate with Ding Fan. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝖓𝖔𝖛𝖊𝖑~𝖋𝖎𝖗𝖾~𝖓𝖊𝖙

Being able to get the governor's cooperation was simply too formidable.

After listening to Ye Ningqing's words, Ding Fan nodded his head. He had already discussed Dancheng's affairs with Ye Ningqing, and he had also asked her to contact Group 3567. Once Elder Mu learned about the situation in Dancheng, he immediately told Ye Ningqing that Governor Liang Shouyu must cooperate with Ding Fan to solve the affairs in Dancheng.

At this moment, when Ye Ningqing mentioned Governor Liang Shouyu, Ding Fan knew that it was time to consult Governor Liang about the epidemic in Dancheng.

Just then, Ye Ningqing's phone rang.

Ye Ningqing glanced at the phone and then answered the call immediately. She recognized the number as an unfamiliar one and picked it up straight away.

"Hello? Ah, Governor Liang Shouyu? Oh... He is here, I'll let him take the call right now."

Ye Ningqing brought the phone to Ding Fan. "Brother Fan, it's Governor Liang Shouyu's call..."

Everyone in the private room looked at Ding Fan in shock.

The governor was a high-ranking official with immense clout, and it was rare to hear of the governor actively calling someone.

Ding Fan appeared completely unfazed as he took the call.

Although in the eyes of the people, Governor Liang Shouyu was like a Heavenly God, Ding Fan did not feel that way. He merely regarded Governor Liang Shouyu as an ordinary person.

This was not disrespect, but a detached composure stemming from having no desires or cravings.

"Hello, I am Ding Fan... I'm currently at Phoenix Building, you want to come over now?..."

The people present listened as Ding Fan spoke on the phone, and they became nervous. Could it be that the governor might come here? The atmosphere in the private room was tense, with some afraid and others secretly pleased...

"I don't think that will be necessary, I have some matters to attend to here. Once I've dealt with them, I will come to see you instead," Ding Fan said calmly.

The crowd sighed in relief upon realizing the governor would not be coming.

Having the governor on site would have created an aura hard for them to relax in. After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Governor Liang Shouyu, Ding Fan hung up the phone.

"Ding has some time available, let's resolve the matter with Mu Qiangsheng today," Tian Li said to everyone.

Since Ding Fan entered the room, he was first sought out by Lin Qingqing, followed by Qin Manshu, and then even Governor Liang Shouyu personally called him.

If it were not for Ding Fan's refusal, the governor might have already been standing in the room by now.

Therefore, Tian Li did not doubt Ding Fan's strength at all, considering his connection with the Qin family and the ties with the Lin Family in Hong Kong...

Tian Li had decided from now on, he would wholeheartedly stand by Ding Fan's side.

"I think it's too early to convict Mayor Mu Jianjun, as there is no final conclusion yet on his matter. Moreover, even if it is Mayor Mu's issue, in any case, it shouldn't involve Mu Qiangsheng..." Just then, another person stood up in the private room, speaking righteously.

The person who spoke was the Deputy Director of the Dancheng Police Station.

With someone echoing the sentiment, others gradually stood up as well. "I feel the same way. Mu Qiangsheng is so young, but he took the initiative to go to the West District to gain experience without relying on his father's power. This is rare to see, and it shows that Xiao Mu is actively seeking progress," said the District Mayor of the East District, who also stood up to speak.

With the Deputy Director of the Public Security Bureau and the Mayor of the East District voicing support for Mu Qiangsheng, other people in the room stood up to show their solidarity.

Seeing the support from those present, Mu Qiangsheng knew they were all opportunists, yet he couldn't help but feel emotional.

Ever since his father, Mu Jianjun, had been isolated for investigation, he had heard only criticisms of his father. Today, finally hearing people speak up for him and his father, he couldn't help being excited.

"Lao Wang, you're currently in charge of the East District. Is there any job there that could be arranged for Qiangsheng?" Tian Li asked from the side.

Mayor Wang Changan of the East District nodded his head. "Having an outstanding youth like Xiao Mu in our East District would be like gaining an extra arm. I'd invite him if I could..."

As Wang Changan said this, he glanced at Mu Qiangsheng and then asked, "Xiao Mu, what did you do in your previous work unit?"

"I was previously at the planning office in the West District..."

Before Mu Qiangsheng could finish his sentence, Wang Changan said, "I think we might do this instead; there's a deputy director position open in our planning office. If you're willing to try, why not give it a shot..."

What? A deputy director position!?

Mu Qiangsheng was seriously beginning to doubt if he had misheard.

Many clerks toil for years without ever being able to reach the position of a section chief. And now, Wang Changan, with just a few words, had arranged for Mu Qiangsheng to take the position of a section chief.

The Mu family was in a state of decline, and Mu Qiangsheng felt extremely fortunate just to be able to return to work; becoming a section chief was beyond his wildest dreams…

"I... I..." Mu Qiangsheng was at a loss for what to say.

"Xiao Mu, if you're not satisfied with this arrangement, I can consider other options for you," Wang Changan said from the side.

"No... It's not that, I just feel... When I was in the West District, I was just a junior clerk, and now to suddenly become a section chief, I... I'm afraid I might not do a good job," Mu Qiangsheng said.

"I think you're cut out to be a section chief..." Tian Li interjected. "Xiao Mu, you're capable and full of vitality. We all believe you can handle this job well."

When Mu Qiangsheng had just graduated from university, he indeed truly believed that with his capabilities, he could carve out a niche for himself.

But things changed after Mu Qiangsheng's father was taken in for investigation, and now he had reached his current predicament; Mu Qiangsheng's thinking had shifted.

Just like now, he had managed to get his job back and was even a section chief.

The fact that he could rise from the ashes had nothing to do with Tian Li's statement about his vitality or capabilities. Mu Qiangsheng knew that without Ding Fan's involvement, becoming a section chief would be impossible, let alone getting his job back.

"I will definitely work hard and do my job well," Mu Qiangsheng said earnestly.

Seeing Mu Qiangsheng taking it seriously, Tian Li turned to Ding Fan and said, "Young Master Ding... What do you think...?"

Actually, Ding Fan's expectation had been that as long as Mu Qiangsheng's job was restored, it would have been good enough; but the others had gone further by offering him the position of section chief.

Ding Fan knew that this was a favor card deliberately played by the other party, which would inevitably require repayment in the future.

"I think it's best to leave it at this," Ding Fan said. "You all handle the rest; I've got some other matters to attend to, so I'll leave you to it."

By Ding Fan's side stood three beautiful women: Lin Qingqing, Qin Manshu, and Ye Ningqing.

Now that Mu Qiangsheng's issue was resolved, Ding Fan couldn't very well continue to stay with them. He wasn't fond of the deep and unpredictable political scene.

So, Ding Fan led the three beauties out of the private room.

Upon leaving the room, Lin Qingqing and Qin Manshu immediately took Ding Fan upstairs to another private room.

As for Ye Ningqing's aunt and the situation with Hua Yongqiang, Ding Fan was unable to deal with it now. Helplessly, he could only ask Ye Ningqing to go and handle it for now.

In the private room of Lin Qingqing and Qin Manshu, there were no other people present, just some simple dishes laid out on the table and two sets of cutlery.

It seemed the sisters had probably come here to dine and drink together.

After being led to the private room by the two beauties, Qin Manshu ordered two more dishes and added another set of cutlery. Lin Qingqing, like a maid, poured drinks for Ding Fan attentively at the side.

If this scene were witnessed by others, Ding Fan would certainly be the subject of envy. Being served cutlery by the beautiful Qin Manshu and drinks by the lovely Lin Qingqing...

Indeed, how many men could boast such fortune?

"The two of you must have something more than dinner and drinks in mind to have asked to see me," Ding Fan said with a smile, watching the two women.

"I flew from Hong Kong to Dancheng today. Manshu came to pick me up. We sisters were having dinner when we happened to see you, so we called you over," Lin Qingqing said with a smile.

Ding Fan glanced at Qin Manshu, who simply shrugged her shoulders.

"Well, if there is really nothing important, then I should be going," Ding Fan said with a smile, making to rise.

Seeing Ding Fan about to leave, Lin Qingqing, worried he might actually go, urged, "All right, Manshu, just tell Brother Fan the truth, or he might really leave."

Qin Manshu hesitated for a moment before finally turning to Ding Fan. "Brother Fan, have you heard of Yuanfang Group?"

Yuanfang Group? Ding Fan's brow furrowed.

"What about Yuanfang Group?" he asked.

Qin Manshu let out a soft sigh, then said, "The CEO of Yuanfang Group is my grandfather's son... his own son..."
