It was Hong Shuo, the director of the Industry and Commerce Bureau.

Upon seeing Hong Shuo, Xu Ming’s face turned pale and he panicked.

“Director, how come you have the time to come over?” Xu Ming forced a smile.

Hong Shuo turned to look at Xu Ming and the flustered Zhang Lu.

“What’s going on?” Hong Shuo asked.

“He’s here to apply for a business license. There’s a problem with the process. It’s not a big deal. I won’t trouble you to look into it.” Xu Ming nodded and bowed. He looked extremely humble. Compared to the arrogant Xu Ming just now, he was simply a different person.

“What’s the problem?” Hong Shuo didn’t intend to let Xu Ming know about this matter and asked with a frown.

“It’s just that their store’s formaldehyde test has never met the standard, so they can’t apply for a business license.” Xu Ming was already feeling a little guilty. “I’ll get our commissioner to check it out later. You don’t have to worry about this.”

“Oh?” Hong Shuo stared at Xu Ming and said, “But I just heard that they were going to call the police. Why?”

“We got a bit agitated. We will definitely pay attention to our attitude in the future,” Xu Ming said.

He turned around hypocritically and bowed to Guo Miao and Guo Fu. “It’s all my fault. Our work has been rather tense recently, so we made a mistake. We might have made the two of you wait for a while. This is our mistake. I apologize to you in advance.”

Xu Ming was very angry at this time. Why did he coincidentally encounter such a thing when he was passing by? If he didn’t handle it well, this month’s bonus might as well be gone.

“Bureau Director Hong, this clerk named Zhang Lu used the wrong test strips and delayed the verification. I have the recording evidence here. If you need it, 1 can provide it. Also, Section Director Xu Ming threatened me just now, so I was planning to call the police,” said Guo Miao.

Xu Ming’s face gradually darkened.

Why did Guo Miao say such things in front of the bureau director? Wasn’t this obviously going to ruin their jobs?

“No, no, there must be some misunderstanding.” Xu Ming quickly waved his hand and stood in front of Guo Miao. “Director, I can handle this small problem. I won’t trouble you.”

Hong Shuo frowned and looked at Xu Ming. “Wrong test strip? Aren’t all the test strips here purchased uniformly? Even if the quality control is different, we always have to test it three times. How can there be a problem?”

There were special regulations for the measurement of the content of Formalide. Zhang Lu’s operation was obviously fishy.

“Director, this is all a misunderstanding.” Xu Ming was already a little anxious. “Please believe me.”

Xu Ming didn’t understand why Hong Shuo would protect Guo Miao.

“I’ve already called Bureau Director Chen over. Let the police handle the rest,” Hong Shuo said. n0𝒱𝑒𝑙𝓊𝓈𝒷.𝗰0𝗆

Chief Chen was the chief of Haicheng City’s police station, Chen Yao. Xu Ming was stunned. How could such a small matter have escalated to the point of calling the police chief?

Before Hong Shuo could finish his sentence, a group of police officers walked in.

“Section Chief Xu, you have to pay the price for your dereliction of duty,” Guo Miao said.

Hong Shuo, who was at the side, saw that the police had taken over the matter and brought Guo Miao and Guo Fu to his office.

He poured two cups of tea for the father and daughter and said to Guo Miao, “I’ve troubled you today. If there’s anything in the future, just call me directly. I won’t let them be part of this.”

Hong Shuo was the bureau chief, so it wasn’t a problem for him to help Guo Miao through the back door.

Previously, when Guo Fu’s food and beverage supply store received complaints, Hong Shuo was also involved in managing it.

“We still want to go through the normal process. If it wasn’t for Section Chief Xu Ming’s negligence, I wouldn’t have bothered you,” Guo Miao said.

Hong Shuo’s connections were all because of Zhong Heng, but she didn’t want to owe the mayor too much.

“It’s a small matter. Tell me the specifics. I’ll find someone else to do it,” Hong Shuo said.

Guo Fu told Hong Shuo about what happened in the store, and he immediately promised to approve all the documents next week.

At this moment, someone knocked on the office door. Bureau Chief Chen Yao was standing at the door.

“Old Hong, there’s a big problem with your position as Section Chief..”
