Chapter 330: Chapter 330: Lamb to the Slaughter, The Tall One Takes the Blame

In the private room, neither Guo Baoming nor Lin Fan spoke, leaving only the hesitant muttering from under the table.

At this moment, Lin Fan’s face was stern. Guo Baoming put it in such a way, and indeed it felt rather off. Of course, before coming here, Lin Fan had already guessed that Guo Baoming’s fundamental condition would naturally be to instigate a rift between him and Zhu Defu. Just that the angle was somewhat unexpected.

"Red Flag County is full of problems as it is. They had just placed you in Lotus Town for a short while before moving you into the county.

Similarly, you are competing with them to divide the spoils. So by now, they must almost detest you to death!"

Baoming’s cold laugh truly sent a chill down Lin Fan’s spine, "So, this position of Deputy County Magistrate, I

Guo Baoming chuckled, "Now everyone knows you’re Zhu Defu’s favored man, so they naturally want to get the bidding documents from you, because of the high chance of authenticity. All they need to do is pay you a brokerage fee, and then everyone makes money from the project. By giving the brokerage fee, they also buy Zhu Defu’s protection.

Lin Fan instinctively asked.
