Chapter 750 - I’m more badass in terms of alcohol

He’s only a passing traveller in Yundian Province, so he’s not in a position to comment too much on their work.

As for the fact that the government could dispatch a Deputy Mayor to help him, it had already broken the rules, and Su Tao knew that he owed Rui Lei one.

As for the new tourist agency that took over their tour, it’s the best agency in the city since they mainly receive provincial-level officials or national VIPs. Hence, the trip was completely different from before.

The tourists were baffled in the beginning, but they soon figured it out. Not long after Su Tao was taken away, the owner of the jade store came and refunded all their purchases. Furthermore, the tourists were provided discounts if they’re willing to make any purchases.

Furthermore, the scenery and trips that the tourists could enjoy were on another level. At the same time, the hotels that they stayed at were all five-starred hotels.

As for the previous tour guide, she immediately left after picking up a call.

All of this pointed to the fact that Su Tao had a solid background.

When someone suddenly realised that Su Tao was the hero of this epidemic crisis, they immediately came up and requested to take photos with him as souvenirs. In the end, Su Tao never expected that this tour would become a meeting between an idol and fans.

“Don’t you think that my Senior Brother looks especially dashing right now?” Yan Sha asked as she whispered in Little Wen’s ears.

“He’s dashing, but I didn’t notice it earlier. I only noticed how courageous and strong he was.” Little Wen murmured.

“You wouldn’t have fallen for my Senior Brother, right?” Yan Sha suddenly shot a serious look at Little Wen.

“I won’t…” Little Wen panicked a little and replied, “He’s your sweetheart, so why would I fall for him?”

“Since we’re best friends, it’s natural for us to have a common interest, and it’s understandable for you to fall in love with my Senior Brother.” Yan Sha suddenly chuckled, revealing her canine teeth before she jabbed Little Wen’s forehead. “But you’re a bookworm, and you can’t multitask, so you won’t easily fall for someone.”

Rolling her eyes at Yan Sha, Little Wen replied, “You’re the bookworm!”

“My mom talked to the Education Bureau yesterday, and my information will be sent to Hanzhou Senior High School. In the future, we can continue to be classmates again.” Yan Sha smiled.

“How hateful. I have to be annoyed by you in the future again.” Little Wen commented as she feigned a loathful appearance.

“You actually find me loathful?!” Yan Sha suddenly attacked, tickling Little Wen’s underarm and the two of them started their wrestle.

The next three days of their trip was great. With an outstanding tour guide, everyone played happily around.

When they returned to Hanzhou City, Su Tao started planning his trip to Italy to participate in Three Flavour International’s product launch, and Yan Jing had planned everything well. Aside from the team from headquarters, Vera would also be heading from Russia to meet up with them in Italy.

Furthermore, Hanzhou City arranged a signing conference for the Three Flavour Medicine factory, with Zhang Ping, the Secretary of the Municipal Committee, attending. During the meeting, he announced that he would be forging Hanzhou City into a dreamland of TCM. At the same time, it was also a piece of explicit information that Su Tao’s Three Flavour Hall, Three Flavour International, Qihuang Charity Funds, and Three Flavour Medicine would take up crucial positions in Hanzhou City.

After the press conference ended, the city government hosted a party to celebrate, with Su Tao and Zhang Ping being the protagonists of the event, sitting together.

This was also the first time Su Tao had such intimate contact with Zhang Ping, and the latter was more amicable and low-profiled than he had imagined.

During the dinner, Zhang Ping and Su Tao would often whisper to each other’s ears, which put Du Ping in a great mood upon seeing that.

Because Zhang Ping was in a good mood, he had drunk an unprecedented amount in a public occasion and appeared to be tipsy.

Before he left in his vehicle, he called Du Ping over and smiled. “Three Flavour Medicine is an extremely important enterprise, and you have to do your best to help.”

“Please be reassured, Mr. Zhang. I will definitely do my best to protect Three Flavour Medicine.” Du Ping had a clear account in his heart. The county that he was responsible for, the enterprises in his county had an annual performance of about ¥10,000,000,000. According to the current scale of Three Flavour Medicine’s investment, the output would definitely exceed ¥3,000,000,000 according to his expectations. Hence, a factory like that would definitely be one of the essential enterprises to support.

After Zhang Ping left, Du Ping let out a breath of relief. At this moment, his phone lit up, it was a call from his wife. Picking up the phone, he smiled. “Wifey, is there anything?”

“I’m inspecting to see if you’re fooling around!” Du Ping’s wife worked as an anchor host in the city’s television station. With a decent look, she could be considered a perfect match for Du Ping.

“You know how much money I have in my pocket.” Du Ping revealed an embarrassed smile.

“Many people either aim for money or power these days.” His wife smiled and continued, “Oh, right. It has been nearly a month since you came home, and my dad is celebrating his birthday next week. Are you not coming back?”

“I’m busy with the county right now!” Du Ping helplessly sighed.

“I knew that you’re going to use this as an excuse again! You’re not staying far away, and you would make a trip back to the city every week, it’s just that you’ve never visited home. Our daughter has already forgotten your appearance!” His wife grumbled.

“How about this, I’ll bring the elders for a sumptuous meal this weekend.” Du Ping was genuinely swarmed with work. The public had an impression that civil servants were all leisure, but that’s one-sided. If he went into details, his work would never end.

“That’s the only choice we have right now. You have to take care of your health!” His wife replied in a low voice. The reason why she picked him back then was because of his workaholic attitude.

“Give me a kiss!” Du Ping stuck his lips on the screen. When he ended the call, he suddenly felt a load on his shoulder. Turning around, he saw Su Tao looking at him with a mysterious smile on his face, expressing that he had just caught Du Ping’s intimate actions.

“My wife called me!” Du Ping immediately explained.

“Haha, of course, you’re talking to your wife with how sweet you were earlier.” Su Tao smiled as he asked, “Otherwise, is that your mistress?”

Waving his hand, Du Ping replied, “Do I seem to be that sort of person?”

Su Tao understood Du Ping well. The latter was an ambitious person, and generally speaking, an ambitious person knew what he can and cannot do. Unlike him, if Du Ping had a complicated lifestyle, it would affect his prospects in the government sector.

“Mr. Zhang praised you a few times at dinner earlier. It looks like he has placed his hopes on you.” Su Tao suddenly said.

“I understand him well, and he never praises someone so blatantly. You must have cooked it up.” Du Ping shook his head with a bitter smile.

Listening to those words, Su Tao was briefly stunned before he gave Du Ping a thumbs up. “You’re really a roundworm in his stomach; nothing could fool you.”

“Everyone says that you’re a divine physician, but I feel that you’re just a crafty fellow.” Du Ping smiled.

Seeing that Du Ping was more casual with him, Su Tao was in a pretty good mood. Ever since he became a National Healer, there seemed to be a barrier between his communication with Du Ping.

“Actually, I don’t want to be a divine physician, either. When I was young, my dream was to become a comedian.” Su Tao responded.

“Really?” Du Ping was stunned as he looked at Su Tao.

“I’m naturally joking with you! I have finally fooled you!” Su Tao laughed.

Black lines covered Du Ping’s forehead as his image of Su Tao drastically fell. But all of a sudden, his heart tensed up when he realised that Su Tao was trying to smoothen out their relationship on purpose.

“After the establishment of Three Flavour Medicine, there will be many things that will require the government’s help.” Su Tao smiled as he went on, “It’s important to you, and it’s even more important to me.”

Du Ping was briefly stunned before he replied, “I understand what you mean. You want to forge it into the best Chinese medicine manufacturing enterprise in the world.”

“That’s not all. I want to forge it into an international enterprise. Japan and South Korea currently split the Chinese medicine market. Since TCM originated from China, we naturally have to take it back.” Su Tao sighed as he added, “So we will face many challenges in the future. Not only will they come from the country, but they will also come from overseas.”

“You’re always planning ahead of others. It will feel unreal if it was someone else, but since you’ve created so many miracles, I don’t think that day it will be far. But I have to warn you that you might be successful now, but you still have to pay more attention to the Chamber of Commerce and government, since it will be beneficial to you. Furthermore, I feel that Mr. Zhang will be a great ally for you.”

“That’s where you’re wrong. If I’m really going to find an ally, that person will be you!” Su Tao casually smiled and continued, “If you need any help in the future, just give me a call.”

Listening to those words, Du Ping was stunned since he never expected that Su Tao would say such words.

Generally speaking, Su Tao should find someone like Zhang Ping as his ally for his level. Zhang Ping had lots of resources, and he also had boundless prospects.

However, Su Tao chose him, which made him feel a little touched.

You couldn’t just look at the present when finding an ally, but the potential of the other party as well. Du Ping might only be a department-level official right now, but Su Tao had already come in contact with those standing at the top of the pyramid in the country. Hence, he felt that Du Ping would become a good partner. The latter was flexible with a sense of righteousness in his heart.

In this money-minded society, someone like Du Ping was extremely rare.

“The alcohol wasn’t enough. Why don’t we find a place by the street and drink a little more?” Su Tao threw out an invitation.

“Sure!” Du Ping straightforwardly agreed and continued, “I will definitely make you drunk tonight!”

“It’s still uncertain who will be drunk!” Su Tao smiled.

Thereafter, the two of them came to a street barbeque store and Du Ping ordered a bunch of food. Although Su Tao didn’t like eating such food that causes cancer, he still went along with it today. Since Du Ping drank quite a bit today, he became silent. It was his habit when he was a secretary not to spout anything unnecessary under the influence of alcohol.

On the other hand, it was Su Tao who kept talking about stories of how he saved lives.

When it was about 2 a.m., Du Ping let out a burp and saw Su Tao lying flat on the table as he muttered, “Do you think that I’ve worked as a secretary for so many years for naught? You’re badass when it comes to medicine, but I’m more badass when it comes to drinking!”
