Originally, Mayor Zhang didn't have much hope, he was just making small talk, trying indirectly to find out the identity of that mysterious young man.
He had realized that this young man definitely had no ordinary identity!
But exactly what his background was, he couldn't say for sure.
It wasn't appropriate to ask directly about such matters, so he could only use this method to probe into Wang Ye's "foundation."
Having been in politics for so many years, Mayor Zhang had met countless people, ranging from various Big Shots and bosses to ordinary workers; he had seen too many to count.
With his "fiery eyes and golden vision" and his wealth of experience, he could generally guess someone's status from their demeanor and speech.
Thus, he deliberately tested the waters, wanting to hear the young man's views on Peng City.
One reason was to ascertain his identity through Wang Ye's comments.
