  Xu Yi, what did Guan Jian say to you, making such a mysterious fuss."

  Mei Shufen returned to the ward, casually tossing a pack of cigarettes to Xu Yi, and throwing several bags of snacks on the table. "You'd better not get involved with Guan Jian, this person's abilities are okay, but his reputation in Qixi County is not good. Even if you want to show off your spoiled rich girl style, it's not worth getting mixed up with someone like him."

  "But as soon as Guan Jian walks into your ward tomorrow, Jiang Weifeng will come and definitely quote a higher price, after all, such opportunities are not common."

  "Shufen, I didn't expect you to be so clever."

  Xu smiled and said, "You're right, Guan Jian is here to tempt me. He's already fenced off over 200 mu of land by the river and plans to build a high-end residential area. He wants to transfer this project to me."

  "Ah, over 200 mu of land, this community's scale is not small at all. Even with Guan's construction capabilities, I estimate it took a lot of effort to win this project."

  Mei Shufen was shocked, "This construction is really generous, isn't it equivalent to giving you tens of millions in cash? Did you agree?"

  "No, how could I possibly agree with him?"

  Xu shook his head, "I'm indeed short of money now, but I'm not so desperate that I'd jump at this hot potato. Once I agree to Guan Jian's request, I naturally can't just watch him get taken down by Jiang Weifeng, especially since Guan Jian has a bad reputation."

  "What I want is a small compensation, not a small white idiot." Xǔ held up the bank card in his hand, "However, Guān Fēi will compensate me for my medical expenses, and I'll take the spiritual damages fee."

  "Oh, I'll go check how much money is in here." Mei Shufen smiled sweetly and grabbed the bank card from Xu Yi's hand, saying "In case there are tens of millions in it, don't let Guan Jian build a trap for you to fall into."

  "Go ahead, the password is six eight." Xu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Guan Jian is now too afraid to set a trap for me. He's busy dealing with his current situation. He just told me that he's planning to retire early. This is what I'm going to tell Jiang Weifeng, it seems like this guy has a lot of problems."

  "Alright, mind your own business whether others have problems or not, it's none of your concern."

  Mei Shufen smiled and walked out with a swaying gait, "I'll go check the money in here first, don't want to be cheated, by the way, there's an ATM next to this hospital, I'll be back soon."

  He nodded slightly, took out a cigarette and lit it, taking a puff. In just two days since he came down from the mountain, so many things had happened. He didn't know if breaking the Feng Shui array in the ancestral grave would change his father's career path. The Feng Shui array had already taken effect, and originally, his father's fate was destined to undergo some reversals.

  It seems that I have to calculate my father's fate, Xu Yi put the cigarette in his mouth and took a sip, calculating one's destiny is extremely exhausting, after all, this is a matter of revealing the heavenly machine, especially when calculating the relatives of the diviner himself, on the one hand, he has to explore the heavenly way, on the other hand, he also has to maintain a stable state of mind.

  The most calculated, Xu Yi's face showed a hint of relief and comfort, although it was a bit hard, but it was very worthwhile. His father's fate had indeed changed, but not in a bad direction, but rather a change in the direction that was beneficial to his development. And Jiangnan Province was exactly the place where his father's career would flourish.

  "Bang, bang, bang"

  The knock on the door sounded, and Xu Yi woke up from his contemplation with a smile, saying, "Shufen, when did you become so polite? Come in, why are you knocking?"

  "Xu Yi, how's your injury? Is it getting better?"

  The door was pushed open and County Party Secretary Jiang Weifeng walked in with a smile, "I've been busy today, I didn't have time to come until now, sorry about that."

  "Secretary Jiang, how did you come?" Xu Yi was startled and made a gesture to get out of bed. Jiang Weifeng quickly walked over and pressed on Xu Yi's shoulder. "It's okay, don't move, you're a patient after all. By the way, how are you feeling?"

  "Secretary Jiang, I'm fine now. I'm a tough guy, and I'll be okay after resting for two days." Xu smiled, "The smell in this hospital is too awful. Besides, the matter of our family's cemetery occupying arable land needs to be handled as soon as possible, or Grandpa will be unhappy."

  "Xu Yi, you're being too serious."

  Jiang Weifeng smiled and sat on the edge of the bed, "The Secretary of Guanyintown, Huang Lian, went to the scene and took a look. It's just a piece of wasteland, not even arable land..."

  "No way, Secretary Jiang, this is my grandfather's firm request. The cemetery must be demolished and cannot occupy arable land." Xu interrupted Jiang Weifeng's words, "I don't want to go back and be scolded by the old man, besides, I've already lost enough face in Qixi this time."

  Jiang Weifeng's face turned red, and Xu Yi's words, although self-deprecating, seemed to him to be saying that this county party secretary was incompetent. The grandson of General Xu Lao came back to pay respects to his ancestors but was caught and taken to the police station where he suffered a brutal beating. Others wouldn't say that Public Security Bureau Chief Ma Tian was incompetent, only that he, as the top leader of the county party committee, lacked ability.

  As the head of a county committee, once he is labeled as incapable, it means his career path has become unfavorable. Tonight, Jiang Weifeng made a special trip to avoid this label being pinned on him.

  Just before arriving at the hospital, Jiang Weifeng saw with his own eyes Guan Jian's son Guan Fei's car driving out of the hospital. This means that Guan Jian also wants to take action from Xu Yi's side. If Xu Yi doesn't pursue it further, the municipal and provincial committees will naturally be happy to have one less thing to deal with.

  While Guan Jian is about to retire, the municipal party committee would not do anything bad at this time. Jiang Weifeng wanted to take advantage of the situation to undermine Lu Weiqun's prestige, but his plan to gain power naturally came to nothing.

  "Xu Yi, I'm really sorry, let you suffer, it's because I didn't do a good job as the county party secretary."

  Jiang Weifeng sighed, "The public security work of Qixi has always been a key and difficult point in the county committee and government's various tasks. This afternoon, the county committee made a decision at the standing committee meeting to carry out a rectification activity within the public security system throughout the county, thoroughly clearing out those harmful elements within the police force."

  Xu Yi did not speak up, this was an internal affair of the Qixi County Committee, and although he was a victim, he had no right to point fingers at government work.

  "Xu Yi, I've already contacted Guanyin Town and asked them to cooperate with your actions. You can arrange whatever you need to do and have them help you." Jiang Weifeng chuckled, "By the way, when I arrived just now, I think I saw Guan Fei's car."

  A hint of a meaningful smile flashed in his eyes, "Our Guan Zong from Qi Xi is quite tolerant, entertainment, transportation, catering and so on, there is no industry without his shadow. He has been running the Binjiang Community project for several months, and he has already circled more than 200 mu of land before many procedures have been completed."

  "Hasn't the procedure been approved yet?"

  Xu Yi was taken aback for a moment, then understood Jiang Weifeng's meaning. Apparently, Jiang Weifeng had also guessed the purpose of Guan Jian's father and son coming to the hospital tonight.

  "This Guan Fei is interesting, the procedures haven't been approved yet, and he's already talking about cooperating with me to develop the Binjiang district." Xu Yi chuckled and looked into Jiang Weifeng's eyes, "Fortunately, I didn't agree to his request just now. If I had, my old man would have broken my legs by now."

  "Xu Yi, which ministry did you work in?"

  Jiang Weifeng smiled and changed the subject, but Xu Yi's performance really made him feel a bit surprised. Xu Yi said that he was cooperating with Guan Fei, and it was very likely that Guan Fei would hand over this project to Xu Yi. This is a big project worth hundreds of millions or even billions in profit. It seems that Guan Jianzhong is preparing to make a big sacrifice in order to safely extricate himself.

  In fact, Guan Fei had almost completed all the procedures for the Riverside community, otherwise, Guan Jian wouldn't have dared to take it out as a favor to give to Xu Yi, and in Jiang Wei's mouth, it became that the procedures hadn't been completed yet.

  Of course, as the Secretary of Qixi County Committee, Jiang Weifeng said that there is a problem with the procedure, then it must be possible to find out the problem.

  "Director Jiang, I'm now just a spoiled rich kid who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, waiting for death without working."

  Xu Yibie smiled meaningfully and said, "What's this, Secretary Jiang has a good job introduction for me?"

  "I don't dare, I don't dare, it's just that I wanted to ask for your help."

  Jiang Weifeng smiled, "Our county party committee wants to fully develop water resources and build several hydropower stations. It has been researched and demonstrated, but it hasn't been approved by the provincial development and reform commission yet. So, I'd like to ask for your help. Director Xu still has a high reputation in the development and reform system."

  Xu Yi was taken aback by the words, this Jiang Weifeng is really clever. If he himself were to take the lead in helping the Qixi County government get these hydropower station projects, Jiang Weifeng would not only establish his authority within the county committee but also surely announce through various channels to the Qixi County Committee and even the Hengchuan City Committee that he has a close relationship with the Xu family.

  This way, his future career will benefit a lot, this guy is really a cunning old fox.

  "Director Jiang, there's nothing wrong with my ears, is there?"

  Xu Yi hehe smiled, "I was beaten up in your Qi Creek until my nose and face were swollen, now I still have gauze wrapped around my head. It's already good that I don't take it out on the county committee, but you're asking me to help you? Is there something wrong with my head or has yours been pinched by a door?"

  The door was suddenly pushed open, and a cool breeze blew in, along with Mei Shufen's surprised voice, "Xu Yi, Xu Yi, I've already checked, there are 3 million yuan on the card. This time the construction project really lost money and compensated you for 3 million yuan of medical expenses."

  Mei Shufen raised her head and saw Jiang Weifeng sitting on the edge of the bed, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, her pretty face turned red, "Secretary Jiang, you're here."

  "Hmm, just arrived, just arrived." Jiang Weifeng chuckled and saw the scene in front of him, he was even more certain about his suspicions. He suspected that Mei Kaishan's daughter and Xu Yi were not just ordinary friends, this old Mei was good at keeping secrets.

  Of course, this situation is what Jiang Weifeng would like to see, it means that Xu Yihui will often run to Hengchuan, and also means that his opportunities are not few.

  "Shufen, please, don't be so muddle-headed, I've been set up by Guan Fei and lost 3 million, if any of the young masters in Beijing were to replace me, they wouldn't let Guan Fei get away with bankrupting him!"
