The specifics of the situation were not far off from Song Guanchao's speculation.
Song Guanchao asked, "How long has Chu Yue been in contact with Mayor Zheng?"
"I'm not sure."
Tang Zhengqiang shook his head, "I happened to see him coming to Lingjiang, so I followed the trail and discovered this situation. But the exact duration of their contact, I don't know. After all, they don't know that we're also in Lingjiang."
"But normally, the length of contact mainly depends on the local leader's intelligence."
"If they're not very smart, they might be easily deceived, taking as little as ten days to half a month to get things done."
"But most head officials of local governments aren't easily fooled, considering the city government deals with corporate executives daily and constantly seeks investment."
"Ordinary con artists find it hard to keep up their act in front of a local head official."
