Chapitre 50: 49. Professional Scapegoat

Below is the English translation of the given Chinese novel excerpt:

Outside the business van, Jing Yu was conversing with a man roughly in his forties.

The man was also dressed in a pure black suit, followed by two relatively younger men with briefcases in their hands, who seemed very respectful towards him.

Through the car window, Tang Shu thought she saw the shadow of an official from Damo Country.

She guessed he might be an official.

"President Jing, I have read through the cooperation agreement from your company and thank you for the investment," the man said. "We can discuss the specifics after visiting the ancient village. What do you think?"

"That would be fine. I hope Mayor Min will consider it carefully," Jing Yu replied.

The man smiled, apparently very pleased.

"Of course, I don't think anyone's agreement could be more comprehensive than what your company has offered. Looking forward to our cooperation."
