Time reached past one o'clock.
The elite men and women surrounding He Ying had returned to their original calmness and confidence, waiting silently.
Among these men and women, there were representatives from relevant enterprises or companies, as well as leaders from local but unrelated firms. Some people came to showcase their corporate culture and strength, while some leaders just came to make themselves known.
The Lin Group Holding Company's base is in Xia Dong, but the investment department looks nationwide, not just limiting its focus to Xia Dong. However, the investment department under Lin Ying doesn't pursue so-called controlling shares when investing.
Most enterprises only receive capital injections in exchange for shares or some form of relevant technology.
There are no harsh conditions or agreements that force people to jump off buildings.
In the investment community, everyone knows that the Lin Group is kind-hearted.
But those who really know the inside story are amazed at those who embezzled funds and ran off.
Heroes do not bother about backgrounds. If you invest in me, and can pass the regulations, I won't question your payment account.
"Welcome, Chairman Lin, to inspect..."
The crowd, who had been anxiously waiting, saw a figure walk out from the VIP passage holding a white fox, and immediately moved towards that side, surrounding the figure and wishing they could open a few bottles of baijiu right there to demonstrate their training and compliance.
They would lay their hearts bare to let Chairman Lin distinguish loyalty and treachery.
"......"
He Ying watched the scene with wide eyes and unconsciously glanced at the business card in her hand, secretly clicking her tongue, and silently criticized in her heart: "I thought I was good at flattering, but it turns out there's always someone better. Just look at your flattering expressions, as if you are about to shout 'Chairman Lin is number one in the world' and dance a money-grabbing dance at the airport."
Meanwhile, as Lin Ying handled the crowd, Lin Bingyun had already walked out from the crowd and approached He Ying.
"Hello, are you the tour guide, He Ying?" Lin Bingyun came up to He Ying.
"Hello, may I ask who you are..." He Ying extended her hand proactively to shake with Lin Bingyun, inquiring.
"I am Chairman Lin's steward. The liaison regarding the tour will be handled by us. It might take Chairman Lin some time to finish the conversation." Lin Bingyun smiled as she explained to He Ying, glancing at the eager crowd.
The purpose of these people being present was nothing more than to invite Lin Ying to visit their company's projects and describe the company's prospects and development during the visit.
Sometimes, you can even see hundreds doing nothing, just accompanying a handful of people.
Leaders, executives, recorders, relevant personnel, and interested suppliers all huddle together, having arranged someone with a high EQ to flatter relentlessly.
Originally, the tour did not require their accompaniment.
But for the sake of a smooth and safe journey, as well as convenience, Lin Bingyun notified the company here.
Lin Bingyun coordinated the arrangements for the trip with He Ying.
Lin Ying's itinerary is quite peculiar. For the first day, property project tours were scheduled, seeking high-end properties that were ready for immediate move-in, with the regional range specified to be over in Xiqi.
The hottest "Song of Everlasting Sorrow", don't want it.
Anything related to death, don't want it.
He Ying watched as Lin Bingyun removed the scheduled itinerary items one by one and added new projects.
"This is the temporary arrangement. After two-thirty, we go to Xiqi to view the properties, stay there overnight, and the next day visit Xinxing Agricultural Science College. For projects concerning college tours, we handle those ourselves, while other related projects are your responsibility for coordination..."
Lin Bingyun handed back the itinerary, smiling as she addressed He Ying with the plan: "If you have any difficulties arranging the itinerary or face unforeseen issues, you can communicate and discuss with me in advance. But we hope the traveling process is pleasant."
"Problem... er, there's absolutely no problem." He Ying looked at Lin Bingyun, then at the business cards of various company managers or head honchos in her hand, nodding.
As for what to do if the arrangements can't be managed...
The boss, ha!
......
Upon getting into the business car arranged by the subsidiary company, Lin Shu replaced the original driver, driving forward, with Lin Bingyun and He Ying in another car, swiftly organizing the itinerary and notifying relevant personnel.
"There's always a strange smell in the air..."
Ansheng sat on Lin Ying's lap, with a look of disdain as he sniffed the air, taking a big gulp from the ice-cold cola in his arms before opening his mouth with a lament.
"Although Chang'an is a travel city, its sandstorms and smog are relatively serious."
It's not the high season for smog and sandstorms now. Lin Ying didn't smell anything strange in the air, but thinking of Master Fox's sharp senses, she explained to Master Fox, smiling about the climate issues in different regions.
"It's not smog or sandstorms, it's a Spirit Beast. That creature's fart is incredibly smelly..."
Arriving in Chang'an, the first sensation Ansheng perceived was not friendliness and bustle, but a foul smell.
A carnivore had farted here.
The fart contained certain pheromones, brazenly claiming territory in Chang'an.
It declared that the entire city was its domain.
If you're not convinced, either hold it in or take a few big sniffs of the pheromones in the fart, and meet it on the clock tower at midnight for a PVP showdown.
Ansheng had seen arrogance before.
He'd seen timidity too.
But such a shameless creature, farting and showing off with two bell-like things, Ansheng had never encountered.
If it weren't for the rush to Xiqi and the visit to Ah Qing's dormitory tomorrow, as well as arranging accommodations for himself, Ansheng would have definitely used two packs of cement to seal that carnivore's butt with reinforced concrete.
"A Spirit Beast farting?"
Lin Ying was taken aback at the words and glanced out of the window. As a popular tourist city, Chang'an was bustling with people and adjacent to Qinling and numerous nature reserves, so it was very reasonable for relevant departments to arrange spirit beasts for clearing the area.
Otherwise... what kind of spirit beast could dominate here?
"Master Fox... the Spirit Beast you mentioned, the one farting, is very likely placed there by the Security Bureau, possibly as a provocation to lure more spirit beasts as subordinates..."
Lin Ying pondered, speaking to Master Fox:
"We're just passing through here, there's no need to disturb the relevant departments."
With Lin Ying's understanding of Master Fox, he was fully prepared to make a statement.
Without accident, that mischievous spirit beast taunting him with a fart would be hospitalized by tomorrow.
"Lin Ying, don't worry! I, An, never make trouble!"
"However, I've just arrived at this honorable place and am not familiar with the rules here..."
"If it comes to trouble me, it's only fair to block its butt with a boiling hot kettle!"
Master Fox chanted assuredly.
Ansheng had a feeling that the spirit beast farting irresponsibly in Chang'an City would come looking for him.
Just like the King Cobra or the wild boar.
Unless they pose no threat to the spirit beasts' dominant position, they would not bother with you due to their territorial nature.
But if a spirit beast that poses a threat to their dominance invades their territory, they would certainly call a Didi ride that day to break the intruder.
Of course, these are the customs of the spirit beasts in Xia Dong.
Ansheng didn't know if that would be the case here in Chang'an since he had no prior interactions.
However, his large shock-absorbing hammer, right now, was being express delivered to Chang'an City by four truck drivers working in three shifts.
The spirit beast at the clock tower might have a fiery temper.
But Master Fox's big hammer wouldn't necessarily fail to explode.
Once it arrives, give the troublesome one a good whack to produce a guide.
