132: I want them all.

Chen Qiu's home.

The sight of luxury cars lined up in rows stunned all the relatives.

Watching the middle-aged men step out of those luxury cars, worth hundreds of thousands to over a million, and lavish praise on Chen Qiu, a young man, their jaws hadn't closed all day.

"Isn't Chen Qiu a hotel tycoon?"

Someone nearby heard the introductions from those bosses and pondered for a moment.

Construction bosses?

Looking at the impressive backgrounds of these bosses, yet they were so respectful towards the young Chen Qiu.

Is Chen Qiu also a real estate magnate?

A commotion arose in the relatives' hearts.

Could this be Chen Qiu's main business for getting rich?

At this moment.

Seeing familiar colleagues gather, the first to arrive, Old Niu, Old Ma, and Old Wu, were all stunned.

They hadn't expected the news to spread so quickly.

Half of Gannan's construction bosses had gathered here!

A quick inquiry revealed that besides the few who received firsthand news from He Yongliang, He Yongliang had later informed many others about this news.

The news that the new President of the Cultural Industry Group was a young man named Chen Qiu had already spread throughout the construction industry.

But those who had actually communicated with him were few and far between!

How could this hungry group of construction bosses miss such a great opportunity?!

"Damn it, this He Yongliang really harms others without benefiting himself!"

Old Niu cursed inwardly.

The only comfort he could find was that the three of them were the first to arrive, which should have left a deeper impression on Chen Qiu.

As for those who came later... it would be good if they didn't incur Chen Qiu's displeasure!

Just as the few of them were thinking this, they suddenly saw a somewhat familiar figure walk in from outside.

"Hey, isn't that Secretary Zhong from the Municipal Party Committee Office?"

Old Niu quickly patted Old Ma.

The latter looked up, also reinvigorated.

"It really is Secretary Zhong!"

Not just them, several bosses present who frequently dealt with the municipal government also recognized Secretary Zhong. Their pupils all sharply constricted.

Who didn't know that Secretary Zhong was one of Minister An's dedicated secretaries in the Propaganda Department?

And Minister An was a strong contender for the next top leader of Gannan!

This secretary appearing at Chen Qiu's house... Chen Qiu had also seen this person at the seminar last time, and was equally surprised by his appearance.

"Secretary Zhong."

As soon as Chen Qiu spoke, Secretary Zhong chuckled and stepped forward, saying.

"President Chen, it's quite lively here."

Chen Qiu immediately gave a wry smile.

"I also didn't expect Gannan's construction bosses to be so enthusiastic..."

Secretary Zhong took out a box of tea.

"This is a congratulatory gift from Minister An for President Chen, wishing you joy on your new home."

"Minister An is thoughtful."

Chen Qiu accepted the tea box from Secretary Zhong. There was no logo on it, so it was probably some special supply?

However, what surprised and amazed Chen Qiu even more was that An Yi would specifically send someone to congratulate him for such a small matter as a housewarming party.

"Indeed, snatching his daughter was the right move!"

After much thought, Chen Qiu felt that besides An Wan's reason, nothing else would be worth An Yi's attention to this extent.

"The congratulatory gift has been delivered, so I won't bother President Chen any longer."

"Secretary Zhong, won't you stay for something to eat?"

"No, I'm busy with official duties."

After shaking hands with him, Chen Qiu watched him get into the car and leave.

Looking at the other construction bosses, they also very self-awarely said their goodbyes to Chen Qiu.

Didn't they see Secretary Zhong leave?

Were they really going to stay and eat?

"President Chen, sorry for the disturbance. If President Chen has a chance to visit my company in the future, I will certainly treat you well."

Before long, the group of construction bosses also left one after another.

As they got into their cars, they all looked deeply in Chen Qiu's direction!

It was just a housewarming party, and it was understandable for them, who had requests for Chen Qiu, to come with gifts.

But who would have thought that An Yi would also send someone?

This almost confirmed the rumors that Chen Qiu had a powerful background!

Not to mention that Chen Qiu held the power to allocate shares in the industrial park; even without the industrial park, this person was still worth currying favor with!

"After returning, I need to thoroughly research what this person likes!"

As they left, the construction bosses secretly thought to themselves... After seeing off this group of people, Chen Qiu saw that it was almost time, so he asked his parents to invite the relatives to the hotel for the banquet.

Relatives and friends repeatedly agreed, and their gazes towards Chen Qiu still carried a hint of awe.

They had just heard the discussions among those construction bosses; that Secretary Zhong was actually from the Municipal Party Committee Office!

For people from townships, they deeply understood the operating logic of this land for thousands of years.

Power has always been greater than money!

No matter how rich you are, if they raid your home and you have no connections, you can only accept your fate!

But if you have power, it instantly becomes different!

This added a considerable amount of awe to their perception of Chen Qiu!

Chen Xiang and others felt that Chen Qiu was like an iceberg, and what was visible above the sea was already shocking enough.

Only upon diving down did they realize.

That was just the tip of the iceberg!

The foundation beneath the surface was even more astonishing!

...Grand Cloud Sky International Hotel.

Here, Chen Qiu welcomed Shao Shushuang, representing the Culture and Tourism Bureau.

And Zhang Mantong.

Considering that she would very likely meet Chen Qiu's parents today, Zhang Mantong shed her usual alluring demeanor and attire, returning to her former Baimi style, which made people exclaim that she was a refined young lady at first glance.

"President Chen, this is a congratulatory gift from Director Wang..."

"This is from Director He..."

The gifts from these two were slightly special, seemingly limited edition Gannan cultural and creative souvenirs.

"Please thank Director Wang and Director He for me."

Chen Qiu smiled faintly, leading the two women inside.

Zhang Mantong subconsciously wanted to link arms with Chen Qiu, but upon seeing Chen Qiu's parents walking towards them, she quickly withdrew her hand, startled.

Both she and Shao Shushuang narrowed their beautiful eyes, their gazes falling on a girl beside Chen Qiu's parents.

Excellent figure, pure face, clean aura!

Most importantly, she seemed very familiar with Chen Qiu's mother!

"Is she Chen Qiu's girlfriend?"

Their eyes sharpened, and their hearts stirred.

Xu Jia watched the two women take their seats, a glint flashing in her eyes.

She keenly sensed that the way these two women looked at Chen Qiu was not quite right!

Especially the one who was somewhat charming; her gaze was practically glued to Chen Qiu.

"Hmph, vixen!"

However, before she could investigate further, another cool and elegant girl appeared, one who even she found stunning.

High ponytail, mature beautiful woman face, cool and elegant temperament... This was clearly the type Chen Qiu would like!

"Wei Wei is here."

Upon hearing Luo Jinglan's affectionate address, Xu Jia's attention immediately focused.

Her gaze fell upon the girl in front of her, whose looks and figure were no less impressive than her own.
