District 9

"I've heard a little about it, haha!" Kim Tae-soo replied with a smile.

"I'll tell you the truth." Zhou Zheng leaned forward and said concisely: "I run some businesses on the surface, but in the end I still work for the government. You also know that with my status, I am under pressure. It’s quite big, so here in District 5, we asked Mr. Jin to help open up the situation.”

"How do you want to open it?" Kim Tae-soo asked.

"I want to acquire two industrial companies, so I need to establish my identity first." Zhou Zheng said bluntly.

Jin Taishu smiled: "This is not a big problem. With me taking the lead, it will not be difficult to get you a Chamber of Commerce status."

"Mr. Jin, I can tell you whatever I have." Zhou Zheng grinned: "The condition for me to come to the fifth district is that there must be sufficient funds for activities on the books, so money is not an issue. And this fund is not mine. No matter how much you spend, as long as you have a reason, it doesn’t matter to me personally.”

"I understand, haha!" Kim Tae-soo nodded.

"Open up the situation. To put it bluntly, it's just a circle game. You have to blend in here." Zhou Zheng picked up the wine glass: "I also asked for your help in this matter."

"It's a small matter. I still have some connections in the fifth district. Can we share it among friends?" Jin Taizhu clinked glasses with Zhou Zheng and drank them all in one gulp.

The wine glasses fell, and Lin Chengdong filled them up for the two of them sensibly.

Jin Taizhu pondered for a long time, looked at Zhou Zheng with a smile and said, "Actually, I also have something to ask you."

"you say."

"Haha, in recent years, the three major regions have gradually risen, which has led to the relationship between the fifth region and the European Union region becoming closer. Both sides have frequent exchanges, both politically and economically." Kim Tae-soo said in a low voice: "So , I personally also want to do some business in the EU area, but my connections are limited. So I thought... could you also introduce to me your upper-level connections?"

Who is Zhou Zheng? That was a treacherous person who could survive in the hands of the murderer Lin Chengdong, so when Jin Taizhu mentioned this condition, Zhou Zheng immediately realized that he was testing himself.

Jin Taizhu has never met Zhou Zheng, and the middleman Lao Li is dead. He has no way to quickly determine Zhou Zheng's identity, so he directly asked to see your upline.

At this moment, if Zhou Zheng does not agree, Kim Tae-soo's suspicion will become more intense, and he will definitely not follow his own ideas. But he agreed, and the go-live came, so Lao Zhou was caught between the military situation in the Seventh District and the go-live in the European Union, so he was very likely to be exposed.

what to do?

Zhou Zheng thought for a moment and replied: "That's no problem. The people above me also want to come to the fifth district to have a look recently. I will introduce them when the time comes."

"Thank you so much!" Kim Tae-soo raised his glass in a toast.

For people like Zhou Zheng and Kim Tae-soo, they only need a few sentences to know what the other person wants when talking about business, so there is no need to talk over and over again.

After both parties figured out what the other was thinking, they started drinking and chatting, making love and romance.

After more than half an hour, Zhou Zheng stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."

"Okay." Kim Tae-soo nodded.

Lin Chengdong thought for a while and stood up: "Excuse me."

Kim Tae-soo looked at Lin Chengdong strangely, smiled and nodded: "Okay!"

The two pushed the door open and left, going to the bathroom at the end of the corridor on the right together.

After a few seconds.

A young man stepped into the room and said softly: "I asked someone to ask. Zhou Zheng has hardly left the hotel in the past few days, and neither has his assistant."

Jin Taizhu took a sip of rice wine: "This assistant Xiao Zhu is a bit strange. What is the relationship between him and Lao Zhou...?"

"It's very strange." The young man said quickly: "When I went to pick him up, I found that this assistant lived in the same room as Lao Zhou, and the relationship was a bit abnormal. He said that he was engaged in military intelligence Yes, you’re the boss again, maybe you don’t have any personal space at all?”

"Live together?" Kim Tae-soo was also a little confused.

"Yes." The young man nodded and replied, "When I went to pick up Lao Zhou, I saw the situation in the room."

Jin Taizhu licked his lips: "Lao Li mentioned to me that Zhou Zheng came to District 5 on his own, but he never mentioned that he had such an assistant!"

"Would you like to test it out and find out the identity of this assistant?" the young man asked.

"Okay." Jin Taizhu nodded: "I just feel something is wrong, but I can't tell what is wrong. On the one hand, I need to check this Xiao Zhu, and on the other hand, I also need to wait for Lao Zhou's reaction to see if he will give me some advice. I introduce relations in the EU zone.”

"Understood!" The young man nodded.

In the bathroom.

Zhou Zheng said in a very low voice: "Two things: First, you have to tell the boss right away that I need money here, a lot of money, and people like Kim Tae-soo can't get it without giving a big price. Second, you need to To quickly formulate a plan, it is impossible for me to ask the people above me to come over, because I have no assistants. When people come, you can easily leak the clues."

“How much is a lot of money?”

"Fifty gold bars!" Lao Zhou suddenly laughed.

Lin Chengdong frowned and looked at him: "...!"

"Don't make such an expression, those fifty gold bars were originally meant for Kim Tae Soo," Lao Zhou replied with a smile, "I just asked you to cut off your beard."

"Okay, I'll go talk." Lin Chengdong nodded.

"Also, the way Kim Tae-soo looks at you is wrong. You have to find a way..." Lao Zhou said a few more words to Lin Chengdong.

…

After a while.

Lin Chengdong and Zhou Zheng returned to the box together and drank with Kim Tae-soo for about 20 minutes before everyone was ready to leave.

On the way back, it was Jin Taizhu who personally sent Zhou Zheng and Lin Chengdong, and he was always tentatively asking about Lin Chengdong's situation. But the latter had already corrected his lines and gave a perfectly logical reply.

After the car arrived at the hotel, Zhou Zheng opened the door and said to Kim Tae-soo with a smile: "Thank you for your hospitality."

"The days are long, I will find an industrial company for you in the next few days." Kim Tae-soo replied after shaking hands with him.

"grateful."

After the two exchanged pleasantries, Zhou Zhengcai led Lin Chengdong back to the hotel.

In the car, Kim Tae-soo looked at the two people's backs, thought for a while and then ordered: "Let's go!"

At this moment, the young man who had been staring at Zhou Zheng suddenly said: "Hey, something's not right, Mr. Jin, look...!"

Jin Taizhu turned his head when he heard the sound and looked towards the hotel lobby.

In the hall, Lin Chengdong turned around and chatted with Zhou Zheng with a smile. When he got excited, he stretched out his right hand and slapped Zhou Zheng's round buttocks, and also raised his four fingers forcefully.

"What the fuck?!" Kim Tae-soo stretched his neck, dumbfounded.

In the hotel lobby, Zhou Zheng also patted Lin Chengdong's butt and motioned for him to go to the front desk to get some water and disposable toiletries.

The young man stared at the two of them dumbfounded, turned to Kim Tae-soo and said, "If this is the relationship, then it makes sense..."

Jin Taizhu felt a chill: "It's hard... no wonder they sleep in the same room."

Lin Chengdong took something from the front desk and quickly walked into the elevator: "We didn't look back, so it should be fine."

Zhou Zheng looked at Lin Chengdong with a look of disgust on his face: "You can just pat it, but how can you still reach out and clasp it in?!"

…

In Yuanshan Life Town.

He Taiyong said to everyone with a sullen face: "Don't let people go to the mountains to make trouble for now. Wait for the people from Chongdu to come over and then figure out how to deal with them."
